00:00I have a different question for you, then.
00:02A question we've not asked you yet.
00:05Did you kill your wife, Michael?
00:14No, I did not.
00:18I'll tell you something else.
00:20The longer this goes on, whether that be here with you,
00:23or with those two women you've installed at my house,
00:25the less confident I am that I'm dealing with anyone capable of finding out who did.
00:31Not now.
00:32Can I have a word?
00:34Annie!
00:40Just putting that into the satin, I don't know, Stephen.
00:41It is Stephen, yeah?
00:47Yeah, I've got the address.
00:48But, erm, I need you to understand something.
00:51If I meet you there and it turns out not to be a public place,
00:53it's not happening, is that clear?
00:54Not without uniform back-up.
00:57Yeah?
00:58So he knew the victim, this guy?
01:00Yeah, he was calling her non-stop in the weeks before she died.
01:03Except we thought he was a she, because she put his number under a woman's name.
01:07What?
01:08That old chestnut.
01:10Oh, you know that one, do you, Andy?
01:27Right.
01:27Keep calling Ivan.
01:28If you can't get Ivan, get Becky.
01:30I'm coming with you.
01:30I said I wouldn't bring back up.
01:32Annie.
01:33It's a murder inquiry.
01:34Yeah, and if he thinks we're doing it his way, he's more likely to talk, isn't he?
01:44I'm not stupid.
01:46I know you'll have looked through her phone records and seen how much we spoke.
01:52We, erm, we became extremely close.
01:56You were having an affair?
01:57No, no.
01:58It's important to clarify this.
02:00We wanted to, but, erm, we stopped ourselves.
02:03For the sake of our marriages.
02:06But if Claire, my wife, if she'd ever found out well, it would have destroyed her.
02:13A marriage ending for a woman her age.
02:15Where do you go after that?
02:19Well, there's nowhere to go, is there?
02:20And he would have erupted.
02:23Who?
02:23Really made her suffer.
02:25You mean Michael?
02:26Why else do you think we started talking in the first place?
02:28She was this special person, stuck in this...
02:32nothing marriage.
02:34That's why I called you.
02:35Because even though I'm freaking out about this, about how this looks,
02:38you need to understand who she was and what she was dealing with.
02:44Thank you, Stephen.
02:46It's on me to help.
02:50Well, let's get it straight.
02:51You only called me after I called you.
02:54In fact, you only called after it was announced as a murder, so...
02:59You're not telling me this to be helpful.
03:00You're doing it because you've got no choice.
03:02No, I, erm, I care about Sarah.
03:04Did you?
03:04More than I should admit.
03:06How many times did you call her after she disappeared?
03:10After you knew she was missing?
03:11Tell me.
03:13How many times in those long, agonising days she was gone?
03:17Did you just...
03:20check she was okay?
03:24Really?
03:26As many as that?
03:29How did it start, this...
03:32affair you weren't having?
03:37Where were you Monday the 23rd?
03:40Sorry, you've got someone downstairs?
03:42Answer the question.
03:43I'll show you around.
03:48You must have a lot on, Stephen.
03:50In the office on a Saturday.
03:52I'll talk to my DI if you want to interview you properly.
03:59Hi.
04:00Hi.
04:03Hi.
04:36Stay with us.
04:38Just for tonight.
04:39No.
04:40No one needs to be here for Dad.
05:06No one needs to wait for them.
05:07No one need to go, no one needs to go...
05:13I have to go him...
05:14Didn't you want?
05:14No one needs to turn.
05:15So, at reduced rail, so...
05:15A run of signs what will this take?
05:20Something like that.
05:20It's nasty.
05:21Yeah.
05:21But no one needs to do next.
05:23No one needs to turn.
05:24No one needs to be killed,
05:34Hi. I'm just getting some stuff.
05:37Alana, I am so sorry.
05:41I spoke to Mr. Halliday last night about maybe doing a recital of all her favourite music.
05:49Way too early. I apologise.
06:17I don't know if you're aware of this, Michael,
06:20but in cases of female murder, the perpetrator is most likely to be a partner, ex-partner, or a male
06:26well-known to the victim.
06:28Funnily enough, I was not aware of that.
06:30We're making it crucial we eliminate you from our enquiries.
06:33So you can be left to your grief and we can get on with you in our jobs, which is
06:37what we want to focus on now.
06:39Well, on the afternoon, Sarah disappeared. You were watching a rugby match?
06:43I'm coaching a rugby match, yes.
06:45And that match finished?
06:46At 4.15, yes. Then my daughter and I went along with a boy called partner. I've told you all
06:50this already.
06:52We got home about 4.30.
06:55At which point you realised Sarah was missing?
06:57Alana did, yes.
06:59She looked in the room where she teaches, then went upstairs, looked outside, and then finally came to me to
07:05ask me if I knew where she was, which I didn't.
07:08I would also add that everything I did up until that rugby match can be accounted for.
07:13If I wasn't in a lesson, I was either supervising an event or in a meeting, all of which is
07:18documented.
07:20That's the upside of having a rigid timetable.
07:25His alibi's tight. Sarah's at the school till lunchtime. Several people confirmed that.
07:30So either she left of her own accord or she was taken against her will, and if she was taken...
07:34Then it wasn't by Michael Polly.
07:37Polly's all had family location tracking on their phones, but Sarah barely ever took hers anywhere.
07:41So what now? You let him go?
07:44No. I'll let the search finish first.
07:46We can't force him to stay.
07:47No, but he's not going anywhere, is he?
07:50Guilty or not, he needs to be seen to be cooperating.
07:56Annie.
07:56Can I have a word, please?
07:57You went where?
07:58Well, I tried telling you, but...
08:00No, but I was in an interview.
08:01Yeah.
08:01I was unavailable because I was conducting an important interview.
08:04Yeah.
08:05Yeah. So you wait.
08:06I didn't even realise you'd called him in the first place.
08:08This is the first. I'm hearing about any of this.
08:10You're the family liaison officer, Annie.
08:12He was having an affair with Sarah.
08:13Right, so you come to me, and you tell me that, and I decide what we do about it.
08:17Sorry.
08:18I'm sorry it's come about like this.
08:20If I've overreached.
08:21If?
08:21This is strong, Ivan.
08:23He's already trying to point a finger at Michael, and I like the idea it's Michael, me more than anyone,
08:27but let's be honest...
08:27Michael's alibied.
08:31His name is Stephen Cedric.
08:33He's a dad at the school.
08:35His son is the best player in the rugby team.
08:37On the day of the match, his son's big day, he is nowhere to be seen.
08:41Nor is Sarah Polly.
08:43Maybe that's it.
08:46Why hide the fawn under the bed?
08:48Not because she left in a rush, or she was being kidnapped...
08:51Because she didn't want Michael knowing where she was going?
08:54Yes.
08:55Or who she was meeting.
09:23Or who she was meeting.
09:28I couldn't face doing it last night.
09:31We'll do it later.
09:33Together.
09:41I told Cindy in the bakery to put that aside.
09:44It's Annie's favourite.
09:46She comes on a Sunday, and we both have a slice.
09:48Well, you should tell Cindy at the bakery that I come on a Sunday so that you can have a
09:51slice.
09:56Fair.
09:57Nice.
10:01This case you're working on at school.
10:04It does still mean you'll be working on Tina.
10:06What did I promise you in 2004?
10:09You and Ron, when I was still in uniform?
10:12That you'd find the bastard you did it.
10:13What did I promise you in 2017, as soon as I became a DC?
10:17That you'd find the bastard you did it.
10:19And what do I say every Sunday when we sit down to have a slice of cake?
10:22That you'll find the bastard you did it.
10:25And I will find the bastard who did it.
10:28Not a doubt in my mind.
10:29I mean it.
10:32It's only...
10:35You've been saying that for a while now, haven't you?
10:41That's all right, love.
10:42You've got a lot on your mind.
10:56You've got a lot on your mind.
11:24It's in the best interests of the school.
11:26You can see that.
11:28How many years have we worked together?
11:30The three of us.
11:33Well, that's why we wanted to do it in person.
11:35You forget how much I supported you?
11:37When you needed all that time off?
11:39Parents complaining.
11:40Well, that has nothing to do with...
11:42queuing up out there.
11:44And you, all that crap before COVID,
11:47that doesn't just disappear on its own, you know?
11:51The governors are all agreed.
11:53This is in your interest.
11:54No, don't patronise me.
11:55Mike.
11:55Don't call me Mike.
11:56He calls you Mike.
11:56I am not talking to him.
11:57Okay, okay.
11:58All of us, let's try and keep it civil.
12:02Our suspension is a pause.
12:04There needn't be any negative connotation to that word.
12:07I agree.
12:08Oh, you agree.
12:09We have end-of-term exams.
12:11We have open day.
12:12And not just that,
12:12but the first 15 have this vital game.
12:14And we must protect those things.
12:17She's right.
12:18We're a business.
12:19The parents are clients
12:20and they'll expect certain things.
12:21They'll expect you to step back.
12:33Simone.
12:40I'd like you to draft an email to the parents and staff.
12:43I want this laid out properly.
12:45It's temporary, you know, a fortnight.
12:47And it's being done at my suggestion.
12:48Michael, we've written it.
12:50Well, then I'd like to read that before it goes out.
12:52I want everyone to understand
12:54that this is not about me.
12:56It's not a judgment on my character or my ability.
12:59Michael, it went out this morning.
13:06These are from June, a sports match.
13:08Parents, staff.
13:09There's Michael.
13:10Now, look.
13:11These were all on a laptop we found in the house.
13:13Sarah again.
13:17She's made an effort and here's why.
13:20Go forward, please.
13:24Is he looking at her there or at Polly?
13:27We can do better than that.
13:28No.
13:29We've got a live photo.
13:45They start the affair.
13:46They speak every day.
13:48Yet the day she goes missing,
13:49before anybody knows she's gone,
13:51the call's stopped.
13:53So we're saying it's him?
13:54No.
13:55We're saying he's interesting.
13:57I on our list.
13:58Your list.
13:59I'm just the FLO.
14:00Speaking of which.
14:02No mentioning this to the Polly's.
14:04Okay.
14:05Paperwork, devices,
14:07anything we can find on Stephen Sedgwick,
14:08then we bring him in.
14:09Let's go.
14:39Do you know who I mean by Simon Howell?
14:44He was my predecessor here at the school.
14:46Your mom and I,
14:47we came here just before I took over.
14:50See the house?
14:52I couldn't believe it.
14:55It was so much nicer than our previous place.
14:57I mean,
14:57you wouldn't remember that.
15:00At one point,
15:01as your mom was talking to his wife,
15:03he brought me out here.
15:06And he told me not to move in.
15:07I mean,
15:08take the job,
15:09but even though you'd never find anywhere as nice as this,
15:12get somewhere outside the school boundary.
15:16Because people keep turning up.
15:19How do you mean?
15:20Pupils,
15:21parents,
15:22staff,
15:23you know?
15:24They just knock,
15:26and they knock,
15:26and they keep knocking,
15:27because
15:27this isn't your house.
15:30It's the headmaster's house.
15:31It belongs to the school,
15:32it belongs to them,
15:33and you belong to them.
15:36You're no longer just my coin.
15:39You're always the headmaster.
15:40Yeah.
15:43It doesn't just affect you.
15:46It affects everyone.
15:49Sarah,
15:49she ceases to be Sarah.
15:51She's the headmaster's wife,
15:53and then it affects your marriage.
15:54You're married to the school.
15:56And that's why he was trying to tell me,
15:58because that's why him and his wife were leaving.
16:00Because they saw the danger,
16:01they couldn't do it all.
16:04And I looked at him,
16:05and I thought,
16:06well,
16:06I won't be like that.
16:11Because I can handle it.
16:15Because I'm better than you.
16:20And so I thanked them for his advice,
16:22and I ignored it.
16:23Stop now.
16:24And I never discussed it with your mother,
16:25and then it happened to us.
16:29We didn't get out in time.
16:48So I've asked the governors for some time off,
16:51and they've agreed.
16:52Yeah, as short as possible, of course,
16:53given how busy we are.
16:55But I think it's important, you know,
16:56to have some time at home with Alana.
16:59Good.
17:00At least to hear that.
17:04Okay.
17:04You're about to ask me how it's going, aren't you?
17:06I recognise that look.
17:08Well, it's mine and Baggy's job to keep you updated.
17:11But there is no update,
17:12other than the fact that we're
17:14checking everything from the search.
17:15And still talking to locals in Wales,
17:17at the pub where her card was used.
17:20Is that it?
17:22Did you get into her phone?
17:25Yes.
17:27Yes, we did.
17:28Right, okay, well then that's an update, isn't it?
17:30Yes, it would be.
17:31But your lovely man wasn't glued to her phone
17:33like the rest of us are, so...
17:41Can I show you something quickly?
17:43Yes.
17:57Did they leave it like this?
17:59Yeah.
18:00It's very worse upstairs.
18:03It's like she's been murdered
18:04and now she's been burgled.
18:06I'm really sorry.
18:07We will sort this out, okay?
18:09Even if I've got to do it myself.
18:13She was on her phone much more
18:14than you're making out, you know.
18:17There will be stuff on there.
18:19Not necessarily.
18:22Did she look through it properly?
18:26Alana, we have whole departments
18:29dedicated to that stuff.
18:30If there's anything on there,
18:31we will find it.
18:33And you'll be the first to know.
18:52There's like 60 different articles.
18:55Quiet down, please.
18:58What did I just say?
18:59Three or four different articles about it.
19:01Barry!
19:03Last time I checked,
19:04winning a rugby match
19:05did not give you the right
19:06to talk in class
19:07or use your phone.
19:08Or have I got that wrong?
19:09No, sir.
19:10Dice?
19:10No, sir.
19:13What was so interesting, anyway?
19:17Come on.
19:20Someone told me...
19:22Quickly!
19:23They said Dylan's dad's been arrested, sir.
19:29Say that again.
19:30Arrested?
19:30For murder.
19:34Murder.
19:56This is a tactic of yours, is it?
19:59Arrest a man and put him in a cell, stewing for five hours.
20:02Put him on edge.
20:03Interview commences at 13.01.
20:06Stephen, before we get into your relationship with Sarah...
20:10Yeah, there was no real relationship.
20:11Okay.
20:12But what there was were phone calls.
20:14I want no confusion about this point.
20:16But, before we get into that,
20:18I want you first to tell us where you were
20:20on the afternoon of March 23rd,
20:23specifically between the hours of...
20:24At 12.15 and 4.30.
20:28Well, I was, um...
20:31If it helps jog your memory, Stephen,
20:33it's the place you chose to be
20:34instead of watching your son play rugby
20:36for his school.
20:39Thanks for that.
20:41It's also the time that Sarah Polly went missing.
20:44Later to be found murdered.
20:49So where you were during those hours is crucial.
20:59I was at the cottage.
21:00What cottage?
21:01You have a holiday cottage for you, right, Tal?
21:04I'd run over there to check if it had been cleaned.
21:06Got back to Bristol late afternoon
21:09and spent the rest of the evening at home.
21:12With Claire.
21:13And if you want any evidence of that,
21:15then ask our neighbour opposite.
21:17He's got cameras up all over the front of his property.
21:20Because robberies in Bristol are going up, he says.
21:23Because he's a nosy bastard, isn't he, the truth?
21:25I see them whenever I go out for a cigarette.
21:27He films everything.
21:28I never thought I'd be glad about it.
21:30Now, this cottage, where is it?
21:33Wales.
21:33Place called Ogmore.
21:35Near Bridgend.
21:37Was Sarah ever at this cottage?
21:43Maybe once.
21:44As a friend.
21:55It seems they all know.
21:57Cedric's dad.
21:58Presumed they told you this already.
22:01Must be true, mustn't it?
22:03The police know about the affair.
22:06They will not have arrested Cedric for no reason.
22:10Where are you now?
22:12When he's talking private.
22:19Are you married?
22:21Sorry?
22:22Well, you don't wear a ring,
22:23but that doesn't mean anything these days, does it?
22:25So, long-term relationship, married?
22:27Sorry, are these questions off-limits?
22:29No.
22:31So?
22:33Yes.
22:36Happily?
22:37Happily enough.
22:39Why?
22:41Well, how do you do it?
22:43Work, relationships?
22:44How do you manage all that?
22:46I'm not sure how useful it is
22:48comparing yours and Sarah's relationship to mine, and...
22:54And you're about to tell me, isn't it?
22:56Well, I mean, you don't have to answer any of these.
22:58I'm just making conversations, so...
23:00I don't know.
23:02Must do better.
23:04See me after school.
23:05I don't know what is it that you say to your pupils
23:07when they show you their homework, you know, it's...
23:10I don't know.
23:13None of us are perfect, I know that.
23:18What about you, Michael?
23:28That's a good idea.
23:30Go for a walk?
23:33Can I go for a walk?
23:34No, if you go where I think you're going to go,
23:36because I can't take you there.
23:37Why, is it still sealed off?
23:39No.
23:41Then?
23:41Because you get yourself into trouble, that's why.
23:44If the press sees you, if you leave marks,
23:47you'll put yourself at the scene forensically.
23:49Well, I thought they'd done with all that.
23:50Yes, they are, but...
23:52someone might review this case in the future
23:54and find evidence of you being there.
23:55Why give yourself the hassle?
23:59Hassle?
24:03It's where my wife's body was found.
24:08This was an extramarital affair
24:10and Stephen Sedgwick is trying to conceal it.
24:14So, we are now not looking for evidence,
24:15we are looking for an absence of it.
24:19What's been deleted?
24:21Messages that have gone, uh, phone records,
24:24odd gaps in the diary, yeah?
24:27And I want the CCTV from that neighbour's house opposite.
24:30What?
24:30And I want a full team down at that Welsh cottage.
24:33See if we can place Sarah there on the day she went missing.
24:47Even though it'll be difficult for him to hear,
24:49he's better off knowing, isn't he?
24:51And he's going to find out anyway.
24:53He's better off hearing it from you.
24:54You want him to find out?
24:55No, I...
24:55You do.
24:56You don't like him?
24:57No, he doesn't like me.
25:01It doesn't matter what I think of him
25:03because he's your dad.
25:04You want to look after him and that makes sense.
25:07But I want to look after you.
25:12Jesus, what's the matter?
25:15What?
25:17I've done something stupid.
25:20When they were on their way to the house,
25:22I took something, I could see...
25:24I could see how it was going to look,
25:27how it was all going to play out.
25:27What are you talking about?
25:28I need you to do me a favour.
25:30I need you to go to the staff room.
25:33Out!
25:35I can't go in there.
25:37I need you to go to the staff room.
25:39That's where I hid it.
25:40I need to get rid of him.
25:41I'm not sure that's the right thing to do.
25:43If Dad finds out, it will kill him.
25:46I cannot lose them both.
25:51I'm not sure what goes' so much.
26:07I need you to do the staff room.
26:22Everything all right?
26:24Heaven's fine.
26:26Mind if I?
26:28Of course.
26:29Sorry.
27:04Sarah was down there.
27:07Melody the dog walker came from across there.
27:30I am married.
27:32But not happily.
27:37He left me for another woman, younger woman.
27:42It's hard, isn't it?
27:44When things get tough, it's hard to talk about.
27:49It's embarrassing.
27:56There, you hear that?
28:00That's the school chapel, Bel.
28:01That's how close we are.
28:03And that's why I wanted to come here.
28:07To ask you that whoever did this, whoever left Sarah here,
28:13did they want people to think it was me?
28:35Did you read what's inside?
28:37Of course not.
28:40What's the big deal about it anyway?
28:42Who's it by?
28:43It's not the book.
28:44I just used that to hide them in.
28:47It's, um...
28:50It's Mum's diary.
28:52From her file of facts.
28:54I knew that's why she wrote about things, about him.
28:58Cedric or your dad?
28:59Both.
29:01And I took the pages out of the journal section.
29:05The morning after, she first went missing to stop Dad reading them.
29:09Um, um, and then the police said they were going to come search the house.
29:13I knew if they found it, it would make Dad look bad.
29:20I would give him a motive.
29:24That's a...
29:25Oh, they were twisted things.
29:27So you hid them?
29:32Have you read them?
29:34All of them?
29:36Enough.
29:38I couldn't get to the end.
29:40So what now?
29:42I'm going to take them home and I'm going to burn them.
29:44You can't.
29:46Why?
29:47What if they search the staff room?
29:49It's her own private business.
29:50It's evidence.
29:51You need to give it to the police.
29:52No, no, they'll get the wrong idea.
29:53She says how much she loves him.
29:56Sedgwick.
29:58How she was planning to leave.
30:00For months.
30:01And months.
30:02Is it over?
30:03It doesn't matter what she says.
30:04It makes Dad look guilty.
30:07You cannot get drawn into this.
30:10So what if it says she was planning on leaving your dad?
30:15Okay, he wouldn't have wanted that.
30:19But maybe Sedgwick, he might have not wanted that either.
30:26Otherwise, if it had been months and months and months.
30:31Why hadn't they done it already?
30:36It's evidence against the both of them.
30:54Garth?
30:57These messages were deleted off Sedgwick's phone.
31:00Sarah deleted the same ones off hers, but she didn't delete them from the cloud.
31:05Can you print these off?
31:07I thought you might say that.
31:10If there were any text messages, there wouldn't have been many.
31:14There are 700 on your phone.
31:15That's total nonsense.
31:17Sorry, you're right.
31:19There were 700 on your phone.
31:21And then, the day before Sarah went missing, you deleted them.
31:25All of them, in one go.
31:28Her final message, and may as well start at the end, was pretty short and to the point, wasn't it?
31:35I don't recall.
31:35You don't remember what it said?
31:37No, why don't you remind me?
31:38Why not?
31:39Her last message simply says,
31:42It's over.
31:44That's odd, because if there was no affair, then what was it that was over, exactly?
31:51Friendship.
31:51Very louder.
31:53A friendship.
31:54And what did you reply to that?
31:56Does that slip your mind as well?
31:58Shall I?
31:59Why not?
32:00Who the hell do you think you are, making all these promises, trying to make me leave, see, then calling
32:07it quits?
32:09You're going to pay for this?
32:11You have no idea.
32:12You're going to fucking pay.
32:15It's one hell of a friendship.
32:18The cottage you rent out is in Ogmore.
32:20Yeah?
32:21Mm-hmm.
32:22So if Sarah did go there, it wasn't to stay there?
32:25I don't think so.
32:26So when our forensics team arrived there later, they won't find any evidence of her in any of the bedrooms?
32:38Stephen?
32:39I'm sorry, it's a lot to take in.
32:41On the afternoon she went missing, Sarah Polly used her cash card at the Red Hair Pub.
32:46Five-minute drive to your cottage.
32:49She bought cigarettes.
32:51She doesn't smoke.
32:52No, but you do.
32:55You told us your neighbour Alec films you every time you go off for a cigarette.
32:59That's what you said, wasn't it?
33:05That was me.
33:08I heard her card.
33:12We were close.
33:15I admit it, I admit that now.
33:16I spent time together.
33:22When we could.
33:23And because of that she left her card in my car.
33:29I'd left my wallet at home.
33:31So use that instead.
33:33Why are you hiding all this?
33:35I'm not hiding.
33:36I'm helping.
33:37Where is that card now?
33:38If that's your story and you had it with you on a Monday, then where is it now?
33:41It's in my wallet.
33:45Which was taken from me when I arrived here.
33:47I'm not hiding.
33:50I'm hiding.
34:01I'm hiding.
34:12I don't keep trying.
34:14I'm hiding.
34:33I've taken that compassionate leave. I've confirmed it.
34:37Hey, Becky.
34:38You were right about Cedric. He's got Sarah's bank card.
34:42Okay, thank you. Bye.
34:44What was Becky saying that she's coming to take over?
34:47If there was anything you needed her to bring?
34:49No, I didn't think so.
34:51I'll leave you to it.
34:53Thanks.
34:54Bye.
35:09Where did you go?
35:11I told you.
35:12To confirm that compassionate leave.
35:14Well, you were gone a long time.
35:15No, it took a long time.
35:16What's in your pocket?
35:18Sorry?
35:19What have you got in your pocket?
35:21Why are you being like this?
35:22I'm just asking a question.
35:24No.
35:25No, you're interrogating me like I'm a sick former.
35:27Show me.
35:36They're pages.
35:38From Mum's file of facts.
35:39Diary pages.
35:40I was worried.
35:43I don't want her private thoughts being pulled over by the police.
35:50And have you read them?
35:52Not all of them, no.
35:53Not to the end.
35:55Well, can you read them to me?
35:57I mean, if you think they're worth keeping from the police, I'd like to hear what they have to say.
36:03You don't want that?
36:05Don't I?
36:09Well, why don't you start with the week she went missing?
36:11Dad, please.
36:12You know, the days before she died.
36:14Start there.
36:26Read.
36:31He's impossible.
36:32The way he talks to me.
36:34The way he looks through me.
36:37These days, every time I see him in the house, I ask myself.
36:42Keep reading.
36:46I ask myself whatever attracted me.
36:50What the hell was I thinking?
36:52Those...
36:53Keep reading.
36:54Those shoes, clothes, hair, the pompous way he strides around.
36:58Dad, dad, people will write things and they don't mean them.
37:01It doesn't mean anything.
37:02Just keep reading.
37:08But we...
37:10No, no, don't edit them or skip anything.
37:12Just keep reading.
37:19But with Stephen, it's different.
37:22Stephen wants me.
37:25Stephen knows how to pleasure me.
37:28We did it.
37:29Keep reading.
37:30We did it in his car, in his house.
37:32He knows what to do.
37:33How to touch.
37:35He takes his time until...
37:38Keep reading.
37:40Keep...
37:40...reading.
37:44He takes his time until I am satisfied.
37:48He's going to leave Claire.
37:51He wants me to leave Michael.
37:56Boring Michael.
37:58Who everyone laughs at.
38:02And I want to.
38:04I have to.
38:07You only get one life.
38:19I never wanted you to know.
38:24And, um...
38:27What are you going to do about them?
38:30Pardon them?
38:32It's her own...
38:34...private business, is that?
38:36What do you think?
38:40All things I should...
38:42...take them to the police.
38:48Well, my advice is that, um...
38:53...you should do what you think is right.
38:57And that mum isn't here.
39:13Cedric's got a cottage in Wales.
39:15He said he used her cards when he was there.
39:17They were there together?
39:18Nope.
39:18Claims he was alone.
39:20Reckon she left the card in his car.
39:22Well, you know where that is, don't you?
39:24That's a man drowning in his own bullshit.
39:25Because if I left my card, I'd want it back.
39:27Exactly.
39:28His neighbour in Bristol's got all his comings and goings on CCTV.
39:31That's the house there.
39:33All right for some.
39:34Here's Cedric leaving.
39:36And ANPR picks him up on the Severn Bridge.
39:41Then a few hours later, back over the bridge he comes.
39:45Back to Bristol in time for tea.
39:48Both trips he's on his own in the car.
39:50In the front of the car, anyway.
39:53I'm going to call the CPS.
39:55See what we need in order to charge.
39:56How long can we keep him?
39:57Until 6.30.
39:59What's the time now?
39:59Six.
40:00Okay, we've got half an hour.
40:14Everything okay?
40:15Hi.
40:15There's something I forgot.
40:26It's probably not even helpful.
40:28It's all helpful.
40:30Well, everyone's been saying that she was killed in the afternoon during the rugby match.
40:33Yes?
40:34Everyone?
40:35Well, online and stuff.
40:37I mean, it is on there.
40:39You can't avoid it.
40:41I can't be right.
40:42She must have been killed later.
40:45And why is that?
40:47Well, because I walk the same route every day, always at 4.30.
40:51And I walked past the house, didn't I?
40:53On that first afternoon, the afternoon that Sarah went missing.
40:57And I said hello to Michael Polly, and then I went on my way, same way I always go.
41:04But Casper never found her.
41:07So, as we thought, she must have gone missing, gone somewhere, and then come back.
41:12Yeah, or been dumped there later.
41:14The day the dog found her.
41:16Okay, let me check again.
41:19Okay, Duncan.
41:21We need footage of Cedric leaving the house again.
41:24So, keep scrolling through.
41:26I want evidence of him moving the body.
41:296.20.
41:30Okay.
41:51This is Monday night, so Basia went missing.
41:55Cedric comes home from Wales, he parks up, and he never leaves.
41:58Family's tucked up for the night, nobody budges.
42:00Just keep scrolling forward.
42:06Keep going.
42:07Are we sure he didn't leave again that night?
42:09No, he didn't.
42:10Look.
42:12Nothing.
42:17Was that car there when we started scrolling?
42:18Well, no, it's just arrived.
42:20What time is it?
42:21Uh, 11.15.
42:22So, a car arrives at 11.15.
42:28Nobody gets out?
42:29Not yet.
42:32There they are.
42:33Zoom in.
42:45That's Michael Polley.
42:48That's Michael Polley.
42:57You're welcome.
43:00You're welcome.
43:02I'm, oh.
43:05See you next time.
43:06Bye, guys.
43:09Bye.
43:11Bye.
43:12Bye, bye.
43:12Bye.
43:13Bye.
43:13Bye.
43:16Bye.
43:18Bye.
43:38At least we still have each other.
43:48At least we still have each other.
