00:00:00From this moment, you are a non-smoker.
00:00:28You have left cigarettes behind, because smoking is a false friend.
00:00:40You are breathing more easily, because you did not smoke.
00:00:47Winding down.
00:00:50Winding down.
00:01:17Mrs. Turrell, do you think someone might meet and greet?
00:01:35Point our guests in the right direction.
00:01:37First impressions.
00:01:38Thank you so much.
00:01:51Oh, thank you darling, just pop it over there, would you?
00:02:20Is there anything else you need?
00:02:33They will disgust you with their filthy voice, their bad breath, their stinking fingers, their
00:02:43reeking clothes.
00:02:44You despise their weakness, because you are strong, because you are an ex-smoker.
00:02:57Yeah.
00:02:58Freya, hi.
00:02:59Hi.
00:03:00How are you doing?
00:03:01Freya!
00:03:02Hi.
00:03:03Hello Diana.
00:03:04Poppy.
00:03:05It's Freya, Diana.
00:03:06Freya Carlisle.
00:03:07Hi, it's Freya.
00:03:08So how are you?
00:03:09I'm very well.
00:03:10Thanks, Poppy.
00:03:11How are you?
00:03:12I'm very well.
00:03:13Didn't I read somewhere about you being in line for editor for Tribune?
00:03:14Oh.
00:03:15No, that...
00:03:16Oh.
00:03:17Sorry.
00:03:18As you know, this has been a momentous year for the college.
00:03:25The vote to admit our first male undergraduates next year was won, after a robust contest,
00:03:32by a convincing two thirds majority.
00:03:45male undergraduates next year was won after a robust contest by a convincing
00:03:53two-thirds majority. I would also like to take this opportunity to pay tribute
00:04:04and bid the fondest of adieus to Professor Ellaby who after 30 years at
00:04:12Lady Matilda's is forsaking us for Princeton.
00:04:42Oh my god, as I live and breathe the female Enoch.
00:04:44Schmidt! Happy?
00:04:46Oh, what's that?
00:04:48Oh my God, as I live and breathe the female Enoch.
00:04:52Schmidt! Happy?
00:04:54Oh my god, as I live and breathe the female Enoch.
00:04:56Schmidt! Happy?
00:04:58Oh my god, as I live and breathe the female Enoch. Schmidt!
00:05:10Happy? What's the only time to call this?
00:05:13And Diana, oh look at you! You must have a picture in an attic somewhere.
00:05:18Congratulations! Or whatever it is one's meant to say on such occasions.
00:05:22Poppy, hey! How weird is this?
00:05:36Love we do. Well done.
00:05:38Thank you. Thank you so much.
00:05:41Thank you so much.
00:06:11Thank you so much.
00:06:13Thank you so much.
00:06:35Hello, who's there?
00:06:36Is somebody there?
00:06:53Something tells me you're not here after the two-for-one, Dandelion and Burdock.
00:06:57Suspicious death, Lady Matilda's college.
00:07:00Lady Matilda's?
00:07:01The last old female college in Oxford just voted to go mixed.
00:07:04I know what it is.
00:07:05So?
00:07:06Holding a Gordy.
00:07:07The information's a bit sketchy, but one of the guests have been found dead.
00:07:26Sir?
00:07:27I don't know who she was.
00:07:28Poppy Toynton.
00:07:2932, alumna.
00:07:30Worked here as a development officer.
00:07:31Parents from Whitby.
00:07:32Oh, she shared a house with one of the Dons from here.
00:07:33Diana, Ella B in Bicester.
00:07:34Accommodation's been given over to the guests for the weekend.
00:07:36Boys?
00:07:37Doctor, what have you got?
00:07:38I can't speak for you, obviously.
00:07:39What I've got is intergestion after another sports supper.
00:07:43What she's got at first glance, anyway, appears to be a broken neck.
00:07:44From the fall?
00:07:45Is there only to say that it was a fall, according to uniform.
00:07:46They're signs of a break-in upstairs.
00:07:47I've seen a crime are taking a look now.
00:07:52What time was she found?
00:07:53Senior Porter called in about an hour and a half ago.
00:07:55I had an apartment.
00:07:56That was all gone.
00:07:57Yeah, we didn't know you.
00:07:58You did.
00:07:59OK, Missy.
00:08:00Okay.
00:08:01I don't know.
00:08:02Let me tell you how you are.
00:08:03Well, I'm okay.
00:08:05I'm not sure you have seen a problem there.
00:08:06I'm not sure you are.
00:08:07That's awful.
00:08:08Anybody?
00:08:09I'm sure you have to stay.
00:08:10That's awful.
00:08:11You're not sure you've got your arm.
00:08:12I can't speak for you, obviously.
00:08:14What I've got is intergestion after another sports supper.
00:08:16What she's got at first glance, anyway, appears to be a broken neck.
00:08:19Senior Porter called it in about an hour and a half ago.
00:08:21That'll agree with time of death between nine and ten.
00:08:25Well, it was the Porter that found her, was it?
00:08:27No, one of the first-year students dobbling up as a waitress tonight for a bit of pin money.
00:08:31Samantha Coyle.
00:08:35My room is on the stair.
00:08:37I was on a break and I wanted to make a call.
00:08:40I'd left my mobile in my room, so...
00:08:43You knew her from around college, presumably.
00:08:47What was she like?
00:08:49A bit bossy.
00:08:51Didn't want to get on the wrong side of her.
00:08:56You all done?
00:08:57For now.
00:08:58PM's eight o'clock sharp.
00:09:00Is there anything I should know?
00:09:02Such as?
00:09:03With himself.
00:09:04First venture to this place, he got very, um, beady.
00:09:07Oh.
00:09:07Well, there's a young woman attacked here.
00:09:10Nine, ten years ago.
00:09:12Sister of one of the undergrads.
00:09:13Er, Chloe something.
00:09:15Robbie's case.
00:09:16What happened?
00:09:17A couple of days into the investigation, his wife got killed.
00:09:21Oh.
00:09:22So, keep an eye, eh?
00:09:24I'll be right back.
00:09:36I'll be right back.
00:09:38I'll be right back.
00:09:48Principal Furber?
00:09:49Hmm?
00:09:49D.I. Lewis.
00:09:51You wanted to wait?
00:09:52Yes.
00:09:52I was wondering how long you'd be.
00:09:54I'm sorry to ask, but it's, uh, an accommodation issue.
00:09:58With staircase five out of our own system...
00:09:59Yeah, I'm afraid that'll be the case until we establish exactly what's happened.
00:10:04When did you last see her this evening?
00:10:07Um, well, I-I suppose that would have been about a quarter of an hour before the balloon
00:10:12went up.
00:10:14Diana Ellaby wondered if someone might fetch her wrap.
00:10:17I found Poppy in the bar a wee while later and passed the message on.
00:10:21She went, and I didn't see her again.
00:10:27What do you think we're looking at?
00:10:29Burglary gone wrong?
00:10:31A heck of a coincidence, if not.
00:10:32But if it was an accident, then where's Professor Ellaby's wrap?
00:10:38That's what, Poppy Toynton went off to fetch.
00:10:41So where is it?
00:10:43And if you're going upstairs, your whole momentum is forward, not back.
00:10:50On the other hand, if she fell on the way down...
00:10:52Why didn't she have a wrap with her?
00:10:54What was Poppy Toynton like?
00:11:04One doesn't want to speak ill, but a bit of a head girl.
00:11:08Deputy head girl.
00:11:10Passive-aggressive, terrific quality.
00:11:12In a development officer.
00:11:14Not always appreciated elsewhere.
00:11:17Anyone with him, she'd had a particular falling out.
00:11:20Well, there's always going to be personality clashes in any large organisation.
00:11:24It was all systems with Miss Toynton.
00:11:51Change this.
00:11:52Change that.
00:11:54I'm barely scraping a third.
00:11:57Doesn't mean to say I'd wish that on her.
00:12:01I just hope that you lot do better this time around and let you catch the swine.
00:12:05How do you mean?
00:12:06Chloe Brooks.
00:12:07I'd have thought you'd know all about it.
00:12:09No, that was before my time.
00:12:10I've got a post-mortem with Dr. Hobson at night.
00:12:27Thought I might get some reading if, er...
00:12:29The suspicious at Lady Matilda's college.
00:12:32Gordie, wasn't it?
00:12:33Er, last night.
00:12:35Former student of Diana Ellaby.
00:12:37Have you seen her yet?
00:12:38Seen, yes.
00:12:39Er, spoken to, no.
00:12:41Not this time round, anyway.
00:12:43I did actually meet her on a previous case briefly, hence the homework.
00:12:47Crikey.
00:12:48Crikey.
00:12:49I'd better get her riddle on.
00:12:51Laura doesn't mind her patience being late, but woe betide.
00:12:55What was she like?
00:12:59Ellaby.
00:13:00It was years ago.
00:13:02A bit prickly, as I remember.
00:13:04What?
00:13:05She would be.
00:13:06Something of a termagant in her day.
00:13:09Leading light in the struggle for female empowerment.
00:13:11How is that going, by the way?
00:13:13You can mock.
00:13:14The glass ceiling was required reading when I was at college.
00:13:17She's got form, you know.
00:13:19Trespass, breach of the peace.
00:13:21Protesting against American missiles back in the 80s.
00:13:24Greenham.
00:13:24Oh, Hayford.
00:13:26Handier for tutorials, I suppose.
00:13:29Quick bit of saving the world and then back into college in time for hot-buttered muffins.
00:13:40I missed the main event, I'm afraid.
00:13:43But it is as I thought.
00:13:44Broken neck.
00:13:46I don't look so disappointed.
00:13:48It wasn't an accident.
00:13:50She was helped on her way.
00:13:52Single bloated the skull.
00:13:53Temple fracture about here.
00:13:55With what?
00:13:56Her old friend, the blunt instrument.
00:13:59Circular trauma about yea big.
00:14:01Um, possibly a hammer.
00:14:04She goes A over T down the stairs and neck breaks in the ensuing fall.
00:14:07What?
00:14:09I know that look.
00:14:12Just thinking.
00:14:13You all right?
00:14:15Of course.
00:14:15Why wouldn't I be?
00:14:16Well, Lady Matilda's College, hardly the happiest of associations.
00:14:20It's just a place, Laurie.
00:14:22No, so long as you're...
00:14:23I'm fine.
00:14:26Anytime.
00:14:26Anytime.
00:14:26What happened to the girl?
00:14:32Oh, you're so weird.
00:14:35I didn't know who else was going to be there.
00:14:39I can't really face the thing again.
00:14:44It's this one over here.
00:14:46Oh, thanks.
00:14:47D.I. Lewis.
00:15:00Oxford Police.
00:15:02Doctor, um...
00:15:03Oh, no.
00:15:05I'm not a doctor.
00:15:05I work in the dispensary.
00:15:07Ruth Brooks.
00:15:09Is it about my sister?
00:15:11Not like that, no.
00:15:13Somebody was killed last night at Lady Matilda's.
00:15:18You knew her, I believe.
00:15:19Poppy Toynton.
00:15:23What do you remember of her?
00:15:27Beyond she was a first year and I was a second.
00:15:31Not much.
00:15:32Lewis, did you say?
00:15:33Have we?
00:15:34I interviewed you at the time.
00:15:38Last night brought Chloe to mind.
00:15:40I...
00:15:40I just wanted to check how she was doing, I suppose.
00:15:48I know she's in there.
00:15:51Somewhere.
00:15:52Trying to get home.
00:15:54So I come and talk to her first thing each morning.
00:15:58And before I clock out.
00:16:02And just hope.
00:16:03Hope.
00:16:10What have we got?
00:16:17Definite break-in.
00:16:18Rooms on the second and third floors.
00:16:21Samantha Coyle's already given us an inventory.
00:16:24MP3 player and missing cash.
00:16:28Right.
00:16:28So my phone, my watch and my purse.
00:16:31Is that what it was about?
00:16:32With Poppy?
00:16:33She disturbed him.
00:16:34Him?
00:16:35Well, wouldn't you think?
00:16:37At an exclusively female college, any bloke here would have stood out like...
00:16:40Like a sore thumb at a wedding?
00:16:41How well did you know Poppy Toynton?
00:16:47Well, we were up around the same time.
00:16:50But Pops was definitely...
00:16:53Lower stream.
00:16:56She was very keen to hang out with us.
00:16:58I think she was a bit starstruck by Diana and the whole golden set thing.
00:17:04What golden set thing?
00:17:06Those of us Diana took under her a special wing and groomed for greatness.
00:17:12A man's reach and all that.
00:17:15Silent Hathaway tells me you're a journalist, Miss Carlisle.
00:17:19On the post.
00:17:20Columnist.
00:17:22Is there a difference?
00:17:23About 40k per annum and my picture above the copy.
00:17:27Sex and the single girl is mine.
00:17:29Can the modern miss have it all?
00:17:31What's the verdict?
00:17:33The jury's stood out.
00:17:41It's quite true.
00:17:42Poppy lived with us for a while at House Beautiful.
00:17:45Diana provided lodgings to a handful of second and third year students.
00:17:49Her brightest and best.
00:17:51I was there two years and Poppy came in my second year.
00:17:56After Ruth Brock's left.
00:17:58Yes, that's right.
00:18:02Outside of her cadging letters and the perennial round robin, I really didn't see or hear anything
00:18:09of Poppy after uni.
00:18:10We were very different people.
00:18:12In what way?
00:18:13I made a success of my life.
00:18:15What was the nature of her relationship with Professor Ellaby?
00:18:20They were friends.
00:18:22Poppy was devoted to Diana.
00:18:23Nothing more?
00:18:25More.
00:18:26Have you ever read any of Diana's work?
00:18:31That's probably a silly question, isn't it?
00:18:34Man delights not Diana, nor women neither.
00:18:38Professor Ellaby is famously celibate.
00:18:41Benouncing a life of the flesh for a life of the mind.
00:18:43Look, do you know how long we're going to have to hang on here?
00:18:45I have work to get back to.
00:18:47On a weekend.
00:18:48I'm CEO of Guilty Secrets.
00:18:51What's Guilty Secrets?
00:18:52It's a lingerie chain.
00:18:55Sergeant Hathaway doesn't get out much.
00:18:58Regular customer, are you, sir, at Guilty Secrets?
00:19:01Loyalty cardholder?
00:19:02Every high street's got one.
00:19:04It's a major chain.
00:19:05Online and what have you.
00:19:07Online?
00:19:08Well...
00:19:08Just because I've heard of something here we ought.
00:19:11My mind is on a hired plane.
00:19:13Speaking of which, we should be getting over to that house.
00:19:17What is it again?
00:19:18Beautiful, sir.
00:19:19What kind of name's that for a place?
00:19:21It's from the Pilgrim's Progress.
00:19:23John Bunyan, he who would valiant be.
00:19:25Didn't you go to Sunday school?
00:19:26We had a couple of missionaries came up in Newcastle once.
00:19:30They went in the pot, I think.
00:19:33Christian stays at House Beautiful on his way to the Celestial City.
00:19:36It's where he meets the maidens.
00:19:37Prudence, charity, piety and discretion.
00:19:40Oh, and, um, Porter Watchful, of course.
00:19:44Of course.
00:19:53What do you make of those two?
00:19:55Mace meat.
00:19:56Professor Ellaby.
00:20:11Yes, Hathaway, B.I. Lewis.
00:20:13We wondered if we might have a word.
00:20:15When you get to my age,
00:20:20you think that life's got nothing left to throw at you.
00:20:24But you have no heart left to break.
00:20:32Damn.
00:20:32Can you think of anyone who would want to harm Miss Toynton?
00:20:50Harm her?
00:20:52No.
00:20:54No.
00:20:55I mean, I thought a robbery, Marion said.
00:21:01Principal Ferber.
00:21:03I can spell that for you, slowly, if you need to write it in your book.
00:21:08That won't be necessary, Professor.
00:21:10But we will need to see Miss Toynton's room.
00:21:13Must you?
00:21:14Oh, she'd have so hated that.
00:21:17Some lumbering great brute pawing over her things.
00:21:20I'm sure Sergeant Hathaway will do his best
00:21:22not to lumber and paw more than usual, right?
00:21:25Scout's honour.
00:21:50He's not a dollar.
00:21:53Oh, she's also a lady.
00:21:53Yeah, she's not a house.
00:21:54She was a lady.
00:21:55That doesn't mean she doesn't want me.
00:21:57And she doesn't rent her.
00:21:57This is her one.
00:21:58No, she's not a day.
00:21:59Can't I take me?
00:22:00No, she can't.
00:22:00I haven't put her.
00:22:01If I haven't put her anyway.
00:22:03But I can't do that.
00:22:09I can't do that.
00:22:11I can't do that.
00:22:13We can't get you.
00:22:14I can't do that.
00:22:16I can't do that or not.
00:22:17I can't do that.
00:22:19I can't do that.
00:22:19I should have gone myself.
00:22:32That was Poppy.
00:22:33Was there anyone special in her life?
00:22:35Boyfriends? Girlfriends?
00:22:37She had friends.
00:22:38Of course.
00:22:40But not in a way.
00:22:49Only a couple of the people I've been talking to, they've...
00:22:54Well, they say she wasn't the most academically minded of souls.
00:23:00Yes, is that right?
00:23:03They thought her an unlikely candidate for you to have taken under your wing.
00:23:07Alongside the other girls here.
00:23:11Young women?
00:23:13Well, probably had other qualities.
00:23:16Such as?
00:23:18She was very nurturing.
00:23:21I'm not sure everybody saw that side of her, but...
00:23:25We suited each other.
00:23:28She was like a daughter to me, really.
00:23:30I mean, they're all my daughters, of course, but...
00:23:34Poppy was special.
00:23:37Ruth Brooks was one of yours, wasn't she?
00:23:39Ruth?
00:23:41Yes, yes, she was.
00:23:44What makes you ask that?
00:23:47I was in charge of an inquiry looking into what happened to her sister.
00:23:51Oh, that American boy.
00:23:53Judd Havillow.
00:23:55Judd.
00:23:57Judd.
00:23:59Yes, of course.
00:24:01He came from money, didn't he?
00:24:03Such a wicked thing to do.
00:24:06Should I remember you?
00:24:07I came off the investigation quite early on.
00:24:13Did you find anything of interest?
00:24:15It's purely procedural, but I'll need you to come back to the college with me, make an inventory of your things, check that nothing's missing.
00:24:22Now.
00:24:25Let me get my keys.
00:24:26Hey, nothing?
00:24:32According to the bank statements, there's been a lot of money withdrawn in the last year from the hole in the wall.
00:24:37How much is a lot?
00:24:38More than you could possibly spend unless you'd suddenly developed a crack habit.
00:24:47Hey.
00:24:48Hey.
00:24:48Hey, I'm not here.
00:24:54Come on, then.
00:24:57All right.
00:25:00You're meant to tell me if you're thinking of going out.
00:25:02Oh, what are you going to do, Pauline?
00:25:04Get me gated.
00:25:06I graduated, remember?
00:25:08Oh, yes.
00:25:09I remember you, Miss Carnile.
00:25:29Princeton, I hear.
00:25:30Are they all right with that, the criminal record?
00:25:34America has a proud tradition of direct action.
00:25:36When confronted by the forces of tyranny.
00:25:39Some might call it sleeping with the enemy.
00:25:41The enemy is already at the gates.
00:25:45Next year, they'll be inside the citadel.
00:25:47And where did Poppy Twenton fit into these plans of yours?
00:25:51Well, Poppy would have stayed on at House Beautiful, of course.
00:25:54It's still my home.
00:25:56The plan was to split my time between here and the States.
00:26:01She would have visited, of course.
00:26:04Oh, is it, uh, is it all right, too well?
00:26:10We were wondering, Diana, the drinks tonight.
00:26:16Well, there's no possibility of those going ahead, surely.
00:26:18It's going to be very difficult getting the word out to cancel at such short notice.
00:26:23I'm sure it's what Poppy would have wanted.
00:26:25Well, we'll, uh, make it low-key.
00:26:36Oh, my necklace.
00:26:38I'm having a jet necklace.
00:26:43Oh.
00:26:43Oh, Diana, I'm so sorry.
00:26:44Forgive me for asking and telling me if it's none of my business, but, um, what's with the interest in the Chloe Brooks case?
00:27:06Laura Hobson told you.
00:27:08Well, I had to get the thumbscrews out.
00:27:11So?
00:27:11Just covering all angles.
00:27:16Well, this is the one, beyond coincidence.
00:27:18I mean, I know it has some weight for you, personally, but it wasn't murder.
00:27:24Might as well have been.
00:27:26A 15-year-old kid left in a coma.
00:27:30What was she doing there?
00:27:31She'd come up to Oxford to see her sister for the weekend.
00:27:35There was a party, a musked bowl.
00:27:38It's all in the files.
00:27:39Yeah.
00:27:41Where?
00:27:43Okay.
00:27:46Okay, run away.
00:27:48I've got a trace on Fair Carlisle's mobile.
00:27:49I felt at the time there was something, I don't know, something wasn't right.
00:27:57I should have done something, said something.
00:28:01Oughtn't we to be concentrating on the case at hand, sir, the one in the present, in the here and now?
00:28:06It's not like leaving a job half done.
00:28:07You didn't, it was done.
00:28:09Yeah, not by me.
00:28:15Wish me luck.
00:28:21Sweet dreams, Clive.
00:28:22Hello, Carl.
00:28:42My name's Detective Sergeant Hathaway.
00:28:45Sir, you found the mobile out fishing.
00:28:47Where was that?
00:29:04On a scale of one to ten, ten being lots, one being not very, how grisly is this?
00:29:10Such a shame for Diana.
00:29:13Oh, my God.
00:29:14I don't believe it.
00:29:17Hello, Shmi.
00:29:18Raya.
00:29:19What are you doing here?
00:29:21I didn't think...
00:29:22Diana invited me.
00:29:25Oh, my God.
00:29:26How are you?
00:29:27Oh, you know.
00:29:29I'm sorry.
00:29:30Listen to me babbling away anew without a drink in your hand.
00:29:38Good old Shmi.
00:29:39I read your condoms sometimes.
00:29:45Do you?
00:29:47It's good.
00:29:49You always had a way with words.
00:29:53Except when it mattered.
00:29:56What was there to say?
00:29:59We were all afraid, I suppose.
00:30:02We didn't want to dwell on what happened,
00:30:05almost as if we didn't say it.
00:30:07It hadn't happened.
00:30:08It's all right.
00:30:09No, no.
00:30:09It was cowardly, but that's the way it was.
00:30:13Since, though, I don't think there's a day that's gone by.
00:30:15Day is fine.
00:30:16Not tonight.
00:30:17Last night's all.
00:30:33Dumped off a bridge outside Abingdon.
00:30:34Is this all of it?
00:30:35Yeah, apart from jewellery.
00:30:36Might have gone in the river.
00:30:37Maybe he panicked, realized what he'd done, and decided to offload the spoils.
00:30:49It's a scenario.
00:30:50It's a scenario.
00:30:52All right, here's another.
00:30:54Ten years ago, a girl's attacked.
00:30:56And a decade later, certain people who were there the night of the attack are reunited
00:31:01in the very place where it happens.
00:31:02And hours later, one of them's dead.
00:31:05You don't believe that this was a robbery gone wrong any more than I do.
00:31:09See you in the morning.
00:31:39See you in the morning.
00:32:09Come on.
00:32:11Might have gone.
00:32:13Come on.
00:32:14Come on.
00:32:15Come on.
00:32:17Come on.
00:32:18Come on.
00:32:20Come on.
00:32:34Come on.
00:33:07Hello, you.
00:33:14It's Ruth.
00:33:17I couldn't find you.
00:33:20It's all right.
00:33:23I'm here now.
00:33:37I don't think he's been home.
00:33:55What's...
00:34:04Sorry, sir.
00:34:08I just wanted to get the last ones in order.
00:34:11In order of what?
00:34:14Would have been easier if I had the lid of the box, obviously.
00:34:17What box?
00:34:19Jigsaw box.
00:34:20I think I'll leave you to it.
00:34:24For those of us whose Mensa applications came back late, we'll return to sender.
00:34:2840 or 50 people taking photos at the same event over one evening.
00:34:32Right.
00:34:33If you look at one set of photos, you're going to have stonking great gaps.
00:34:35But what one person misses...
00:34:37Someone else might have covered.
00:34:38So a few of the sets have gone missing in the interim, but at least a third are time-coded.
00:34:43This gives us waypoints.
00:34:45The rest, you just have to extrapolate.
00:34:47Based on what?
00:34:48Light levels.
00:34:49Level of drinking people's glasses.
00:34:50Who's next to who?
00:34:51Who's doing what?
00:34:52It would be easy if I knew who was wearing what, but that's doable.
00:34:54We just get that, shove it in the computer, and we're in.
00:34:58What?
00:34:59No, no, no.
00:35:00It's good.
00:35:01Just...
00:35:03All this.
00:35:05Why?
00:35:06Well, you thought something wasn't right.
00:35:14Come on, get your coat.
00:35:15Where are we going?
00:35:16See an old mate.
00:35:17What's up?
00:35:47Hello, Arlie.
00:36:04Oh.
00:36:05Sir.
00:36:08No, I, er...
00:36:10I took an early bath...
00:36:12four or five years ago.
00:36:15Grabbed a lump sum and sunk it into this.
00:36:17You doing all right?
00:36:19Oh, you know, must have grumbled.
00:36:22It's without, right?
00:36:24Well, remembered.
00:36:26I made you enough tea.
00:36:27You have that.
00:36:29You look more like a long, tall, skinny, double-shot frappe espresso.
00:36:36Am I right?
00:36:37Something like that.
00:36:39What's that set you back?
00:36:40Best part of a fiver?
00:36:42More for the two of you.
00:36:43I don't expect he sticks his hand in his pocket, does he?
00:36:45The bagman's lot.
00:36:47We've all been there.
00:36:49Keep your head down and your nose clean.
00:36:54You won't find a better governor.
00:36:57That's what he keeps telling me.
00:36:59There you go.
00:37:00Thanks.
00:37:02Careful, it's hot.
00:37:05So, come on.
00:37:08Didn't used to be so bashful.
00:37:11Much as I'd like to think you've come all this way out of the goodness.
00:37:16Lady Matilda's College.
00:37:18Oh, what?
00:37:18This thing?
00:37:19You mean the local?
00:37:20I've not named it yet.
00:37:22But the victim's name is Poppy Tintle.
00:37:24Oh, you're looking at me like that's supposed to mean something.
00:37:30Yeah.
00:37:31Well, you interviewed her on the Chloe Brooks case.
00:37:34Oh, Chloe Brooks.
00:37:37Oh, Rob.
00:37:39Best will in the world.
00:37:40That's a lot of Chardonnay under the bridge.
00:37:42Ten years.
00:37:42The old grey matter.
00:37:44Sure.
00:37:45But Kerrison was certain that he had the right man with Judd Havilock.
00:37:48Absolutely.
00:37:49D.I. Kerrison.
00:37:51Yeah, absolutely.
00:37:52We both were.
00:37:54He's never been found.
00:37:55Yeah, well, the kid was connected.
00:37:57Yeah, his parents offered $5 million for information as to its whereabouts.
00:38:00Well, the twelfth night come early.
00:38:02Of course they offered a reward.
00:38:03How would it have looked if they hadn't?
00:38:06I mean, if you can afford $5 million,
00:38:10you can afford to make someone disappear, right?
00:38:13Plastic surgery, new life.
00:38:14Right.
00:38:15Don't know where he is.
00:38:16He's probably in some bar somewhere in downtown Bogota right now,
00:38:21sipping sundowners with Lucky Lupin.
00:38:25What?
00:38:27It's all right.
00:38:28We're amongst friends.
00:38:30It was the hospital.
00:38:30Chloe Brooks had just rejoined the land of the living.
00:38:32Are you sure there's nothing?
00:38:41No loose threads or...?
00:38:44Outside, we never pinched him.
00:38:46Look, whatever the story with this toint in the room,
00:38:50it's got nothing to do with Judd Havilock.
00:38:54I'm telling you, Rob, God's honest.
00:38:55Old Kerrison had his faults, rest his soul.
00:38:57But in this instance, he didn't put a foot.
00:39:02Thanks for your time.
00:39:03Don't be a stranger.
00:39:21She's undergone manipulation each week
00:39:23to stop her muscles from electrifying them.
00:39:25Physically, she's very weak.
00:39:27Five minutes, that's your lot.
00:39:30And certainly not both of you.
00:39:32I'll see you back at the station.
00:39:34If she shows signs of distress or not being able to cope,
00:39:37you'll have to stop.
00:39:38Understood?
00:39:39Yeah, I've got it.
00:39:39Good.
00:39:41Chloe.
00:39:46Can you remember anything about what happened to you?
00:39:49The nurse tells us that when you woke up,
00:39:58you said something.
00:40:01A particular word?
00:40:04Can you remember what that was?
00:40:10You said murder.
00:40:13Do you remember?
00:40:14Can you think why you said it?
00:40:24It's all right, Chloe.
00:40:26I bet Sir Lewis just wants to help.
00:40:28You're not in trouble.
00:40:28I couldn't find Ruth.
00:40:41I went to look for her.
00:40:43And there was...
00:40:47Go on.
00:40:49I don't know.
00:40:54I can't remember.
00:40:59I couldn't find you.
00:41:03Where were you?
00:41:06Where were you?
00:41:08What...
00:41:09What did you find, Chloe?
00:41:13I don't...
00:41:14I don't remember.
00:41:16I don't remember.
00:41:19I don't...
00:41:19I don't...
00:41:20I don't...
00:41:22It's all right.
00:41:24It's all right, Chloe.
00:41:26No one is going to hurt you.
00:41:28It's okay.
00:41:29Shh.
00:41:30Shh.
00:41:30Shh.
00:41:32Shh.
00:41:49Good morning.
00:42:01Have you seen Napoleon?
00:42:04Yes, I know he should be with the Admiral Velsons, dear, but he's not.
00:42:09Ah, sorry, sir.
00:42:11A bit of a crisis.
00:42:13Napoleon's gone missing, looked everywhere, nowhere to be seen.
00:42:15You've tried St. Helena.
00:42:18Very droll, sir.
00:42:22So, what are you after today, sir?
00:42:26Tarts and vicars?
00:42:27Something for a stag?
00:42:29Because I'll tell you right now, I don't know what I've got left in your size.
00:42:33What about a policeman?
00:42:35Always very popular.
00:42:36Comedy whistle, floppy truncheon.
00:42:38Do you have a policeman?
00:42:39No trouble.
00:42:40Small world.
00:42:41If I hadn't got involved with Judd, but it's that bad boy thing.
00:42:50Eddie warned me.
00:42:52Tried to.
00:42:53Eddie?
00:42:55Edward Florey.
00:42:57Judd's roommate at Lonsdale.
00:43:00He asked me out once and I turned him down.
00:43:02When I started seeing Judd, he told me I was making a mistake, that I'd get hurt, but at that age I was just...
00:43:10But you had broken it up with Judd, hadn't you? If I remember right.
00:43:15The night it happened, there was some fresher. Judd was all over her.
00:43:23Not even trying to be subtle.
00:43:25I asked him what he thought he was up to and he...
00:43:31He stormed off.
00:43:33I went inside after him.
00:43:36We argued and he hit me.
00:43:42I told him we were finished and went off to get drunk.
00:43:45The next thing I know, Chloe's...
00:43:49I'll never forgive myself.
00:43:52I'll never forgive myself.
00:43:55You've been a good sister.
00:43:59No one could have done more.
00:44:03I'm just frightened, I guess.
00:44:16We found this when we were clearing up Poppy's locker.
00:44:20It may have a bearing on your investigation.
00:44:23I knew she was a nasty piece of work.
00:44:27What did she put me through?
00:44:29As you can see, there are letters towards the back.
00:44:32I've received several almost identical this past year concerning Mrs. Turrell's suitability as senior porter at Lady Matilda's.
00:44:40They said I'd had an inappropriate relationship with one of the freshers.
00:44:44Yes, well, I really don't think we want to go into the details, Mrs. Turrell.
00:44:47What's this?
00:44:48Probably joined into your book, ma'am, found in her locker.
00:44:53Not Rodine, plainly.
00:44:54She seems to have been following her contemporaries' careers with some diligence.
00:45:00Not to say of indicative jealousy bordering on clinical psychopathy.
00:45:06This is the lunatic scrapbook from hell.
00:45:07Those who appears it'd fail to shine she largely ignores.
00:45:09But those who'd have made something of themselves, she went out of her way to try and ruin them.
00:45:13How, of letters?
00:45:15In the May. Anonymous, obviously. Either to employers or family.
00:45:18What did any of them do to her?
00:45:20She seems to have been following her contemporaries' careers with some diligence.
00:45:23Not to say of indicative jealousy bordering on clinical psychopathy.
00:45:26This is the lunatic scrapbook from hell.
00:45:31Those who appears it'd fail to shine she largely ignores.
00:45:33But those who'd have made something of themselves, she went out of her way to try and ruin them.
00:45:38How? Letters?
00:45:39In the May. Anonymous, obviously.
00:45:41Either to employers or family.
00:45:43What did any of them do to her to deserve this?
00:45:46Belittled her.
00:45:48Ignored her, succeeded where she'd failed.
00:45:51She reserved in a special venom for two in particular.
00:45:54Freya Carlisle.
00:45:56Don't tell me.
00:45:57The other one was Lakshmi Eyre.
00:45:59It's had consequences for both of them.
00:46:01In Lakshmi's case, divorce.
00:46:02The husband took the family out of the country.
00:46:06Freya was sacked and lost her chance to be editor of Tribune.
00:46:08Now, if they knew that Poppy was behind this,
00:46:13it was to her.
00:46:43Okay, come on.
00:46:50You all right, sweetheart?
00:46:51Yeah, thank you.
00:46:52See you tomorrow.
00:46:53Yeah, night.
00:46:59See you soon.
00:47:01Yeah, see you.
00:47:02Bye.
00:47:13Bye.
00:47:43What time do you call this?
00:47:57No gallows humour this morning.
00:47:59Please, Laura.
00:48:01Just the wise and wherefores.
00:48:03Killed midnight, one o'clock, multiple blows.
00:48:06I suppose nobody saw or heard anything.
00:48:09Damn it!
00:48:11Damn it to hell!
00:48:13Should have been quicker off the map.
00:48:15I let the grass grow.
00:48:16You tried to tell me.
00:48:17I didn't bloody listen.
00:48:18Sir?
00:48:19Too busy looking backwards instead of concentrating on the here and now.
00:48:22My girlfriend!
00:48:24No!
00:48:25Let me through.
00:48:26Calm down.
00:48:28What do you mean, calm down?
00:48:29I want to see her.
00:48:30Tear him, will you?
00:48:32You had no way of knowing the killer was going to strike again, sir.
00:48:36Right.
00:48:37Are we finished?
00:48:38He's right, Robbie.
00:48:42There's no way you could have known.
00:48:45I'm sorry.
00:48:46I'm sorry.
00:48:47I'm sorry.
00:48:48I've been twice.
00:48:49She couldn't be sure, but she thought there was someone upstairs at the top of the landing.
00:49:03Why didn't she say anything?
00:49:07She didn't want you to think that she was just being silly, you know?
00:49:11Keep an eye on him.
00:49:33I thought you could probably use a cuppa.
00:49:43Look, I'd really rather like to go home to London.
00:49:46Yeah, I'm afraid that won't be possible right now.
00:49:50What, you want us to just sit here while some nutter picks us off at random?
00:49:53Well, it might not be random.
00:49:57I spoke to the chair of Tribune's board late last night.
00:50:01You were hotly tipped to get the editor's job last year.
00:50:06Sorry, what's that got to do with anything?
00:50:07Are you aware why you were unsuccessful?
00:50:11Why you were dismissed by the sister paper?
00:50:15You see, apparently the board received a letter
00:50:18outlining your student activities in the cause of animal liberation.
00:50:22Illegal break-ins.
00:50:26Incendiary devices mailed to prominent research scientists.
00:50:30Oh, that's not true.
00:50:32But I...
00:50:32I was involved in a bit of anti-hunt.
00:50:36But nothing like that.
00:50:38Where's this come from?
00:50:39We believe it was written and sent by Poppy Toynton.
00:50:42No, I mean...
00:50:44You weren't aware.
00:50:48No, I wasn't aware.
00:50:50Of course I wasn't aware.
00:50:52If I'd have known, do you think I would have been making small talk with her all evening?
00:50:57Look, if I'd have known, I'd have...
00:50:58You know what?
00:51:01Miss Carlisle...
00:51:04Why did he see the boyfriend?
00:51:08Jarvis Patterson.
00:51:10Pretty decent.
00:51:11Do you want me to handle the ID?
00:51:13Nah.
00:51:14Nah, I'll deal.
00:51:15Thanks.
00:51:16I won't understand.
00:51:38Oh.
00:51:38What about...
00:51:39Yes?
00:51:56Who is it, Shmi?
00:52:09I thought they'd be safer here, if you're still insisting that everyone must remain in Oxford.
00:52:15I take it you've no objection?
00:52:17No.
00:52:19What is it you want?
00:52:39Chloe Brooks' bag. According to the case files, we weren't missing the night she was attacked.
00:52:45Where'd you get that?
00:52:47House Beautiful, Poppy Toynton's room.
00:52:49Actually, me and Freya are there for their own safety, Eloise.
00:52:52Well, how'd you know it's Chloe's?
00:52:54It's the one she's carrying in all the photos.
00:52:56There's more. These are blow-ups of what was inside.
00:52:59Socko have the originals. Could be anywhere, but this is on the back.
00:53:045K, then 2K on the first of each month.
00:53:08What is that about?
00:53:10Why was it stuck in Chloe's bag?
00:53:13Working through over a pint?
00:53:15Ah.
00:53:17Fit, Rob?
00:53:19They're open, you know. Valuable drinking time you're wasting.
00:53:25Join us, James?
00:53:28Yeah, absolutely. More the merrier.
00:53:30No, you're right. I've got one or two leads to follow up.
00:53:33This is the Toynton case.
00:53:35There's been another they're saying on the radio.
00:53:37What leads are these?
00:53:39Oh, it's just one or two things. I'll talk to you about them tomorrow.
00:53:41I still can't believe this. I think the police might be mistaken.
00:53:43No, they're not. My husband, when we broke up, he said things, he knew things he couldn't possibly have known about me.
00:53:59Private things that happened while I was at uni that only a few people knew about.
00:54:15Which people?
00:54:17You, Poppy.
00:54:19Ruth.
00:54:21At the time I was so chewed up over the divorce I never stopped to ask myself how we could have found out.
00:54:27I just assumed people aren't very good at keeping secrets.
00:54:33Sick bitch.
00:54:39My kids.
00:54:41I'm so sorry darling.
00:54:43I haven't thought about Judd in ten years.
00:54:53You roomed with him at uni though. You shared a house afterwards.
00:54:57My parents ran a paper shop in Daventry.
00:55:01Judd had a lovely charm when he turned it on.
00:55:03It took me a long time to see past that and the monster beneath.
00:55:06Did you warn Ruth Brooks against getting involved with him?
00:55:10Ruth?
00:55:11Yes, yes I did.
00:55:12Were you in love with her?
00:55:13Probably.
00:55:14I suppose I saw her as some kind of damsel in distress. I wanted to save her.
00:55:28Out of everyone I thought you'd have gone the distance. I've taken your inspector.
00:55:33Well I woke up one morning and my face didn't fit anymore.
00:55:40It was made clear I wasn't going to go any further.
00:55:45There'd been a complaint. Some girl in a canteen of all places. Civilian.
00:55:54And she said I'd said something racial. Which I hadn't.
00:55:59But I mean even if I had it wouldn't have been anything. Just a bit of banter between colleagues.
00:56:05And then suddenly they're going to bust me down to DC.
00:56:09And a bit hard.
00:56:10I thought sod yeah. I've always played a straight back. You know? And for what?
00:56:19But enough about me. How are you getting on with this Lady Matilda's thing?
00:56:23Hmm.
00:56:24Hmm.
00:56:25Hmm.
00:56:26Look I'll get another round and you can fill me in. How's that?
00:56:30Go on then.
00:56:31Like old times.
00:56:32Judd had several women on the go from various colleges and only hit the mother load. Lady Matilda's.
00:56:45Is that where he met Ruth?
00:56:46Yeah.
00:56:47Yeah.
00:56:48Actually you know I think he met her first at a digs in Bicester.
00:56:51What? Professor Ellaby's house beautiful. Cold comfort farm more like.
00:56:56God what a harpy.
00:56:58You know she wouldn't even let us in the house to use the loo.
00:57:02Can't imagine Judd was made very welcome there.
00:57:04No you think but needs must.
00:57:06He put himself house as a bit of a gardener at weekends for beer money.
00:57:10Ellaby had broken her foot. So.
00:57:13Do you remember who was wearing what the night that Chloe was attacked?
00:57:17Judd went for Arlequina I remember that.
00:57:20I think I had a zany mask.
00:57:22Otherwise...
00:57:24You took any photos?
00:57:26I did do.
00:57:27Video too. I turned it in at the time.
00:57:30Have you um...
00:57:32Have you seen her? Ruth?
00:57:35I was meant to look her up. Cool.
00:57:39Why didn't you?
00:57:40Time passes and you think...
00:57:44I don't know I suppose I thought I'd...
00:57:47Run into her somehow.
00:57:49If it was...
00:57:50Meant to be.
00:57:53Cheers.
00:58:01Your new boy seems decent enough. Hathaway is it?
00:58:05James yeah he's a good lad.
00:58:06Yeah no uh...
00:58:09No Ali McLennan no.
00:58:11Who is?
00:58:13You know one thing...
00:58:15I've always wanted to ask.
00:58:16All those late nights and long observations.
00:58:19How come...
00:58:21You never tried it on?
00:58:23I was married.
00:58:24There were so many that did.
00:58:26Ah I don't know about them.
00:58:28I love me wife.
00:58:30Simple as that.
00:58:33And now?
00:58:34Got anyone?
00:58:36Come on.
00:58:37Who'd have me?
00:58:38Plenty.
00:58:40Two set in me ways man to...
00:58:43I don't know.
00:58:44Start over.
00:58:46Ah sometimes.
00:58:47It'd be nice but...
00:58:49You shouldn't be alone.
00:58:51You're one of the good guys Rob.
00:58:53There we should do this again.
00:59:08No strings.
00:59:10You're just two old coppers out for a pint man then.
00:59:13I'd like that.
00:59:15Well you got my number.
00:59:23Would you mind um...
00:59:25Blowing out the candles.
00:59:27When you're done.
00:59:31Goodnight my darling.
00:59:34Goodnight.
00:59:41Strange being back here again.
00:59:44Seeing Ruth.
00:59:45Does she ever know?
00:59:46What?
00:59:48You and Judd.
00:59:50Oh well that was before they hooked up though wasn't it?
00:59:54Maybe a bit of a crossover.
00:59:56Besides.
00:59:57Glass houses.
00:59:58Ouch.
01:00:00It was just the once.
01:00:02For the record.
01:00:04Right.
01:00:05Do you think...
01:00:07Judd and Poppy...
01:00:08Poppy.
01:00:09She had a pulse.
01:00:14Oh.
01:00:16I'm so wasted.
01:00:21Hit the hay I think.
01:00:28Coming?
01:00:30I'm gonna stay and finish this.
01:00:35I'll see you in the morning though.
01:00:37I...
01:00:39I...
01:00:41I'm so...
01:00:49I don't know.
01:00:50I'm so afraid I have to ask you.
01:00:52Often, where's the boy that goes?
01:00:54A cat?
01:00:56A cat.
01:00:57A cat?
01:00:58A cat?
01:01:00A cat?
01:01:02A cat?
01:01:04A cat?
01:01:05Oh, my God.
01:01:35Flippery!
01:01:48Miss MacLennan!
01:01:58Oh, I see.
01:02:01You shouldn't have.
01:02:03I just wanted to say thank you.
01:02:05For having us here.
01:02:07Did I?
01:02:09Did I hear someone go out last night?
01:02:11I don't think so.
01:02:12Unless Freya went for smokes.
01:02:14I can't think she'd have driven anywhere in her state.
01:02:17No, you're probably right.
01:02:21Ah.
01:02:22No, I don't care.
01:02:28Thanks.
01:02:29You're welcome.
01:02:31I'm sorry.
01:02:31I've been waiting for her.
01:02:32I don't know.
01:02:33I've been waiting for her son.
01:02:35I've been waiting for her son.
01:02:35I've been waiting for her son.
01:02:36I've been waiting for him.
01:02:37Why?
01:03:07Robbie, I wouldn't. It's not pretty.
01:03:26Show me.
01:03:37When?
01:03:39Early hours, between 2 and 4.
01:03:42She wouldn't have known much about it.
01:03:45After the first, if that's any comfort.
01:04:07They only saw her last night.
01:04:27Ready for a drink?
01:04:30You were...
01:04:32Could have been.
01:04:34I mean, who knows?
01:04:37I'm sorry if I was, er...
01:04:41Busk.
01:04:42Well, I was thinking rude.
01:04:45You're entitled.
01:04:47No. Not me, you.
01:04:49Sir.
01:04:51Something you should see.
01:05:07It looks like Ally McClellan was running her own inquiry into the Chloe Brooks case.
01:05:21The back office over there was tricked out like an incident room.
01:05:27Once a copper.
01:05:29But why?
01:05:31That case was put to bed ten years ago.
01:05:33I reckon she found something out.
01:05:35Something that had been missed at the original inquiry.
01:05:39What in God's name was she playing at?
01:05:43And as I count backwards, the more relaxed and comfortable you become.
01:05:55Three.
01:05:57I want you to remember a very special time.
01:06:01Two.
01:06:03A time of celebration.
01:06:07One.
01:06:09A time of celebration.
01:06:10One.
01:06:11One.
01:06:12One.
01:06:13Two.
01:06:14One.
01:06:15One.
01:06:16One.
01:06:17One.
01:06:22One.
01:06:23One.
01:06:24One.
01:06:25One.
01:06:28Three.
01:06:30One.
01:06:31One.
01:06:32We're going to a party.
01:06:44A party with your sister Ruth at her college and university.
01:06:47You remember that?
01:06:53That's good. That's right.
01:06:55Now, what do you see?
01:07:00Everybody's wearing...
01:07:02funny clothes.
01:07:04Like people in a play.
01:07:08Do you recognize them?
01:07:12They're wearing masks.
01:07:15They're Ruth's friends.
01:07:17I don't know who's who.
01:07:24But I see Ruth.
01:07:27She's with a boy.
01:07:30Oh.
01:07:31They're having an argument.
01:07:34Yes.
01:07:35What does he look like?
01:07:38He's got clown clothes on.
01:07:43Diamonds.
01:07:45Worn diamonds in different colours.
01:07:47He's got a train in the house.
01:07:59I can't find Ruth.
01:08:02She's not outside.
01:08:03I can't find Ruth.
01:08:03I can't find Ruth.
01:08:04No.
01:08:05I can't find Ruth.
01:08:06No.
01:08:13What?
01:08:13There's a door.
01:08:16Open the door.
01:08:17No.
01:08:17Please.
01:08:17Open the door, Chloe.
01:08:19There's been an accident
01:08:28A boy in the clown clothes
01:08:32And he's not wearing his mask
01:08:35I know who he is
01:08:37It's the one who kissed me with his hand up my top
01:08:40There's blood
01:08:43Oh, my head
01:08:47There's a
01:08:49Wake her up
01:08:50There's a bird
01:08:51A golden bird with blood on its beak
01:08:54It bit me
01:08:55Lord, please
01:08:59Wake her up
01:09:00Bring her back
01:09:04Bring her back now
01:09:19Some fresher, you said
01:09:43That Judd was all over some fresher
01:09:46Only it wasn't fresher, was it?
01:09:49It was your little sister
01:09:50This was taken where?
01:10:06At Hayford?
01:10:08The base
01:10:08Of course
01:10:10When the forces of law and order attacked the peace camp
01:10:13And you were arrested
01:10:15Could I, um, could I borrow a finger for a moment, do you think?
01:10:27I'm anxious to establish who was wearing what when Chloe Brooks was attacked
01:10:32Oh, good heavens
01:10:34Well, I'm afraid
01:10:38I'm unable to help you in that regard
01:10:40Unable or unwilling?
01:10:44Unable
01:10:45By dint of the simple fact that I wasn't there
01:10:48And why was that?
01:10:51An undergraduate bash
01:10:53One does have a position to maintain
01:10:56Judd Havelock was a regular visitor to House Beautiful around then?
01:11:01Well, I wouldn't say a visitor
01:11:02Er, he did some work for me
01:11:06I was dating Ruth Brooks, of course
01:11:08Yes, but
01:11:09I had certain rules
01:11:11Not under my roof
01:11:13I don't expect you to understand that
01:11:17Being a regular, paid-up member of the patriarchal hegemony, you mean?
01:11:23I'm just trying to find out who killed your friend, Professor
01:11:27Now are you any closer to doing that, do you think?
01:11:30I believe so
01:11:31But I could use some help
01:11:34I'm not the enemy
01:11:35Of course you are
01:11:37I just don't realise it
01:11:41How'd it go?
01:11:58I'll fill you in when I've made sense of it
01:12:00How about you?
01:12:03Well, according to our books
01:12:05McLennan was in serious financial trouble
01:12:08Boatyard was barely breaking even
01:12:11And then, about a year ago
01:12:12She starts making cash deposits
01:12:14Four and a half thousand pounds initially
01:12:17Then the best part of a grand a month
01:12:18Going in around the first of the month
01:12:20And this would be around the same time that Poppy Toynton started making huge withdrawals from her account
01:12:26While he was blackmailing her
01:12:32Over what the...
01:12:35Well, then there's this
01:12:39What am I looking at?
01:12:44Class A, Nicola
01:12:47Five grams
01:12:49Right, that's not just possession
01:12:50That's intent to supply
01:12:52Is there any way you can help me out here?
01:12:55Why would I do that?
01:12:58Well, can't you scratch my back
01:12:59Sort of thing
01:13:00Look, it's big
01:13:02It's really big
01:13:04How big's really big?
01:13:06Murder big
01:13:06Oh, murder big
01:13:08Wow
01:13:08So what can you do for me?
01:13:10Well, pretty much anything
01:13:11I say the word and you'll be back on the street in five minutes
01:13:14I say the other word and you're going away for a very long time
01:13:17Oh, no
01:13:18Tough on the kids, huh?
01:13:20The arrest is a Nicola Silman, known prostitute, died in a house fire last year
01:13:24The tape is dated 17th of May 2005, but she was never charged
01:13:30And then this
01:13:34They drove me out of town
01:13:35Somewhere quiet
01:13:36You know, so just to do the business
01:13:38And afterwards we were sitting there having a smoke
01:13:42Wait to see if we can go again
01:13:45Then this van pulled up
01:13:47The driver got out
01:13:50And he gets a barrow out the back of the van
01:13:53Then he drags up the bundle out
01:13:56And then I saw a hand fall out
01:13:58A hand?
01:14:00You saw someone dump a body?
01:14:02When was this?
01:14:03Oh, God, about five years back in the day
01:14:06So what, you thought you'd just bank it against a rainy day?
01:14:10Come on, Nicola
01:14:11You've got to convince me so far
01:14:13You just sound like some scarecrow clutching at straws
01:14:15Look, I swear it
01:14:16On my kid's life, I swear it
01:14:19Oh, God
01:14:20Okay, all right
01:14:22Where did you see this?
01:14:25The old Air Force place
01:14:26Hayford?
01:14:27Yeah
01:14:27Oh, God, I should believe you
01:14:30Why?
01:14:31Because I got the registration
01:14:32Of the van
01:14:33Pass
01:14:37B-A-Z-A-T-T-A-T-T-E-F-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U-U
01:15:07So, it looks like Poppy Toynton brought Judd Havelock's body up here and concealed it somewhere.
01:15:21Poppy, you sure it could have been someone using her car?
01:15:24Well, if that was the case, why has she been paying off McLennan for the past year?
01:15:30So what, Poppy refuses to play and McLennan kills her?
01:15:33Not the Ally McLennan I knew.
01:15:36You wish she wasn't, sir, was she?
01:15:37The Ally McLennan
01:15:39This is the latest composite of the timeline.
01:15:46Being able to include Edward Florey's photos and a few bits of video recovered from Ally McLennan's place.
01:15:55People we can identify for sure.
01:15:58Judd Havelock and Ruth Brooks. He's in the Harlequin costume.
01:16:01Judd ducks out here and that's the last we've got of him on either video or any of the photos.
01:16:10Judd just disappears.
01:16:13Never seen again.
01:16:13Holder. Who's that?
01:16:23Doctore della Pesta, the plague doctor. Whoever it is never seems to be too far away from Judd over the whole evening.
01:16:28Can we go in closer?
01:16:30Yeah.
01:16:35Golden Bird.
01:16:36With blood on its beak.
01:16:38Significance?
01:16:40Chloe Brooks said she was attacked by a golden bird.
01:16:42I thought it was Judd Havelock.
01:16:46If what Chloe remembers is true, then Judd Havelock's already dead.
01:16:50So, whoever's wearing the bird mask?
01:16:52Probably killed Judd Havelock.
01:16:54Except no one remembers who was wearing which costume.
01:16:56That's all they say.
01:17:16All right?
01:17:18We have guests.
01:17:26Hey, Ruthie.
01:17:28What's up?
01:17:36Festing's fancy dress.
01:17:37Mr. Festing, DS Hathaway.
01:17:39We spoke the other day.
01:17:40I was just wondering.
01:17:41Actually, I think you might be in luck.
01:17:43There's one outfit in particular that we need to account for.
01:17:47The Dottori della Peste.
01:17:49We want to know who was wearing it.
01:17:59Well, it wasn't me.
01:18:01What wear you wearing?
01:18:03I can't remember.
01:18:05But not that.
01:18:07It's not Poppy.
01:18:09I know that.
01:18:11I think she had a zany costume.
01:18:13Miss Carlisle.
01:18:15I don't know.
01:18:17Could have been Principal Ferber, actually.
01:18:19Yeah.
01:18:21Maybe.
01:18:23Sorry, when did you say you were looking for him?
01:18:25Making my term last Saturday in November.
01:18:27Adrian's father used to run a shot just off the broad.
01:18:29We closed down about five years ago when Dad died.
01:18:31Fortunately, he was a meticulous bookkeeper.
01:18:33Yes, we did have a big hire of Renaissance costumes that weekend.
01:18:37Including the masks, of course.
01:18:39Bless him, he's written a note here in the margin.
01:18:41Two costumes, unreturned, deposit forfeit.
01:18:43Arlechino and Dottori della Peste.
01:18:45Does it say who hired them?
01:19:01Oh, actually, they were both signed for and hired on the same credit card.
01:19:09Last night, no, we were all here.
01:19:11Well, I can't vouch for Ruth, obviously.
01:19:14Actually, Diana asked if someone had gone out last night.
01:19:16She thought she had the door.
01:19:18I went straight to sleep. I didn't hear a thing.
01:19:20Why? What's so special about last night?
01:19:22Another murder was committed.
01:19:24By the same person responsible for Miss Toynton's death,
01:19:28for Samantha Coyles and of Judd Havelock.
01:19:31Judd?
01:19:33What are you talking about?
01:19:35Ruth?
01:19:37He's dead.
01:19:38Chloe found him the night she was attacked.
01:19:41Look, it wasn't an accident that Poppy Toynton was killed at the Gordy.
01:19:46The murderer chose that moment,
01:19:48so suspicion would fall on the widest list of suspects possible.
01:19:52Including us?
01:19:53Yeah, including you.
01:19:55So whatever loyalty you think you owe to each other,
01:19:59or to your old alma mater, the killer doesn't share your view.
01:20:03If there's anything you haven't told me,
01:20:05anything you've held back for whatever reason,
01:20:07now might be the time.
01:20:12Frey, you remember that?
01:20:14About the costumes at Judd's?
01:20:18That was nothing. He was probably lying.
01:20:24I don't know.
01:20:25Well, it wasn't Ferber.
01:20:29Tell him.
01:20:32It wasn't Principal Ferber in the bird mask.
01:20:35It was Diana.
01:20:36How do you know that?
01:20:38Judd told me.
01:20:40It was hanging on the back of his bedroom door,
01:20:42along with the Harlequin costume.
01:20:43Diana paid for it for both of them.
01:20:46I thought it was a weird thing for her to do at the time.
01:20:49So why didn't you say so at the time?
01:20:50Because she didn't want me to ask what she was doing in Judd's bedroom.
01:21:01But why would Diana have paid for Judd's costume?
01:21:04It doesn't make sense.
01:21:05No.
01:21:06Unless there was more to their relationship than any of you knew.
01:21:09Diana and Judd?
01:21:11No.
01:21:12I can't believe it.
01:21:13I won't.
01:21:20It's Alaby.
01:21:21Hello, it's what I came to tell you.
01:21:22Yeah, great minds.
01:21:23I thought you were her turning up.
01:21:24Better get across to the college.
01:21:25No, no.
01:21:26Too late.
01:21:27She left half an hour ago.
01:21:28Traffic cameras got her headed north out of Oxford.
01:21:29My car.
01:21:30No.
01:21:31No.
01:21:32No.
01:21:33No.
01:21:34No.
01:21:35No, no.
01:21:36Too late.
01:21:37She left half an hour ago.
01:21:38Traffic cameras got her headed north out of Oxford.
01:21:39My car.
01:21:40No.
01:21:41No.
01:21:42Yeah, I'm sorry.
01:21:43It's good, man.
01:21:44It's awesome.
01:21:45It's fun for the third Waltham.
01:21:46Why Cruise?
01:21:47It's still missing out of Oxford.
01:21:49I know, that's really pretty and bad now.
01:21:52遣 мог got her head in the homework.
01:21:54It had her head should be beyond the feeding test.
01:21:57So, should I Т Tuttle?
01:21:58If somebody was selling your travelgeben wall anyway,
01:21:59I really wanted to confirm her go-to-to-to-the marketing site.
01:22:01To me, too.
01:22:02On the number list, I didn't have to see the silos possible.
01:22:03I was either taken over here because I didn't know why she's going.
01:22:04I came in with my 보�ars with my 보�tem просто plane.
01:22:06They're excited.
01:22:07Like we couldn't rememberia.
01:22:08I'm a girl.
01:22:09I still can't square it, sir. Everything Ellaby's ever stood for.
01:22:23Lust doesn't run to a timetable.
01:22:25Well, it's going to be more on Judd's part.
01:22:27Well, the opportunity for mischief was too good to miss. Once he got his boots under
01:22:32the table, Ruth, Lakshmi, Freya. You can bet he wasn't very discreet.
01:22:39If it had come out that Diana and Judd had been lovers, she'd have been luffed out of Oxford.
01:23:00We had a brief trace on IR, possibly go to ground one on the shed.
01:23:04Yeah, yeah, got it. We'll take it from here.
01:23:06I'm this guy. She's picked her up on infrared.
01:23:08She's got to ground one on the plant buildings. They're sending through a grid reference.
01:23:11Got it? Good.
01:23:13Got it? Good.
01:23:14Got it? Good.
01:23:15Got it? Good.
01:23:16Got it? Good.
01:23:17Got it?
01:23:18Good.
01:23:19Got it?
01:23:20Good.
01:23:21Good.
01:23:22What's that?
01:23:23What's that?
01:23:24What's that?
01:23:25Good.
01:23:26Oh, OK.
01:23:29I'm gonna'nt die.
01:23:31Sir.
01:23:32I'm gonna'nt die.
01:23:33I know what's that.
01:23:34Give me your hand to the floor.
01:23:35You got it?
01:23:36Good.
01:23:37I'm gonna'nt die.
01:23:38Got it?
01:23:39Good.
01:23:51Police.
01:23:52Professor Ellaby.
01:23:53Stay back!
01:23:57Can we talk about this, Professor?
01:24:01I never mean to kill him.
01:24:03To the extent of his depravity.
01:24:12You have no idea.
01:24:15I think we have.
01:24:17I begged him.
01:24:19I begged him to stop.
01:24:21I pleaded with him.
01:24:22Don't come any near him!
01:24:23Careful, sir.
01:24:24Don't!
01:24:29How did it happen?
01:24:30It was...
01:24:31It was Ruth's little sister.
01:24:33Poor child.
01:24:36And...
01:24:38And he was mocking me.
01:24:40You see?
01:24:41Mocking me.
01:24:42And I followed him indoors.
01:24:44He just said the most...
01:24:47Wicked!
01:24:48Wicked things!
01:24:50And then there was a...
01:24:53And he...
01:24:54There was just blood everywhere.
01:24:55So much blood.
01:24:56Poppy Toynton helped you to cover it up.
01:24:59Yes.
01:25:00Yes.
01:25:01While...
01:25:02While she lived, yes.
01:25:03But you see...
01:25:04To be thus is nothing.
01:25:06But to be safely thus.
01:25:08Yes.
01:25:09Things are never that easy.
01:25:10Are they?
01:25:11If only he'd been kind.
01:25:13But he should have been kind.
01:25:16Yes.
01:25:17He should.
01:25:18Take the petrol down, Professor.
01:25:19I've betrayed everything.
01:25:20I've betrayed everything.
01:25:21I've betrayed everything.
01:25:23There has to be a reckoning, you see.
01:25:25There has to be.
01:25:27Because the worst of it is...
01:25:29After all this time...
01:25:31I still love him.
01:25:32I still love him.
01:25:39No.
01:25:40No.
01:25:41No.
01:25:42Let's go.
01:26:12See you later.
01:26:18Hot work, eh?
01:26:22Fancy a drink?
01:26:25Make it dinner, and I'm paying.
01:26:28It's all you want.
01:26:29No, you don't.
01:26:368 o'clock, the till.
01:26:42All these years, I thought everything somehow was my fault.
01:26:54You were all just bits of kids caught up in something beyond your control.
01:27:10I, um, I hope you don't mind the liberty, Miss Broker, but there's someone here who'd
01:27:20very much like to see you.
01:27:22Out flew the web and floated wide.
01:27:38The lady of Shalott.
01:27:39Point.
01:27:40Point.
01:27:41What's brought that to mind?
01:27:42A pure and virtuous maiden cursed to fall in love and die half mad for the wanted.
01:27:45Can't imagine.
01:27:46Judd Havelock was no Lancelot.
01:27:48Are you matchmaking?
01:27:49You old softie.
01:27:50Keep it under your hat.
01:27:51Oh, believe me.
01:27:52Just don't get any ideas on my behalf.
01:27:53I wouldn't dream of him, sir.
01:27:54I wouldn't dream of him, sir.
