00:01That's not what I said, but they're asking questions.
00:04They're sort of questions.
00:06Past behavior.
00:07Rory said he saw him in some kind of fight on the rugby pitch.
00:12I'm just telling you what I heard, Alana.
00:14Let's get your stuff and come stay with me.
00:30Dad! Dad!
00:32Alana, wait!
00:33Get him inside the house. Get him inside the house.
00:35Dad! Dad!
00:36It's all right. It's all right. Calm down.
00:42Dickens!
00:46The guy has done nothing wrong.
00:48Dad!
00:49You should be arresting him, not me.
00:53Charlie, x-ray 356. Can I get an ETL net backup, please?
00:56What the hell was that?
00:57You had your hand around his neck, Michael.
00:59People are going to think you were trying to strangle him.
01:05There are a few conflicting accounts of what happened here.
01:09What's conflicting about them?
01:10Well, D.I. Stanhope says that he came to see you.
01:13Something about your Tina Bradley review.
01:16I actually asked him not to come.
01:18Andy, March, who's the sergeant on duty at the house,
01:20said it looked personal.
01:22Not something I'm particularly comfortable about, Annie,
01:24given your past relationship and given you were meant to be working.
01:27That's exactly right.
01:28That Michael Polly came out of the house and tried to assault him.
01:32That's not quite what happened.
01:33He was forced to restrain Michael.
01:35Yes.
01:35There's also the fact that Michael Polly took D.I. Stanhope by the neck.
01:39It was more fending him off.
01:41Sorry, who was fending who off?
01:42Michael was fending off Craig, D.I. Stanhope.
01:45So he didn't put his hand around his neck.
01:50It's obviously relevant, Annie.
01:52Yes.
01:52Given how Sarah died.
01:53It wasn't like that, Aidan.
01:55Michael Polly is our prime suspect in the murder of his wife.
01:59We've spoken to D.I. Stanhope and he's decided not to press charges.
02:03But, Annie, if an incident such as this occurs during your time as a family liaison officer,
02:09we need to remove you from that role.
02:13You're going to remove me from the role?
02:14Why?
02:15What did I do?
02:15It's standard practice.
02:17You need to step back.
02:18You've compromised your position.
02:20I thought you didn't want to be a fellow.
02:22I didn't.
02:23But he started talking.
02:25Men like that find it hard to talk at the best of times,
02:27but he started opening up to me.
02:28You need me in there.
02:29I even recorded some of it, our conversations.
02:32Well, you shouldn't have.
02:32I'll pay them for you now.
02:35I know he's not alibi-ed, but I don't think he's done it.
02:37Not by the way he's talking.
02:39Let's come back to this later.
02:40No, let's come back to this now, okay?
02:41I'm the only one he'll speak to.
02:44Why won't this bloody thing open now?
02:45Annie, we're not removing you from the case.
02:47There are still actions to be carried out from here.
02:50I don't want to work here.
02:53Annie, you will do as you're told.
03:15What?
03:16What was your ex doing there?
03:19Craig?
03:23Is that who sent you the flowers?
03:27You said to scream at you if you ever went back.
03:30Why didn't you tell me?
03:36Annie.
03:41They want me to stop or say I fell low because it will happen.
03:46Just as he started to talk, they'd taken away from me.
04:01You have no choice.
04:04You need to tell the police.
04:06About the diary.
04:08Your mum was scared.
04:09That's what she wrote.
04:11What if the victim wasn't your mum?
04:13And the man you must suspicious of wasn't your dad?
04:15Would you go to the police then?
04:18So the only thing stopping you from telling the police
04:22is the fact that it's your dad?
04:23That is a thing, Paul.
04:25Obviously, you love your dad,
04:26but not to the point of letting him get away with hurting your mum.
04:33I want her.
04:34At the very least, let the police work it out.
04:42I don't know what it's about.
04:43She just said she wanted to see us after school.
04:53Everyone's very excited about the last game of the season.
04:56And nobody's trying to look past the events of the past few weeks.
04:59No, absolutely not.
05:00Things that must have been happening at home.
05:03But we need to discuss Dylan's academic work.
05:06In English and biology, he's just about on course,
05:10but his history is, well, we're not where we need to be.
05:14We'd like Dylan to take a test to assess his progress.
05:17On Monday after school, that's, what, three days from now,
05:20push him to make an improvement in his essay writing.
05:23Otherwise...
05:24Otherwise we're not sure about the rugby,
05:26about him playing in the match.
05:28We all want him to play,
05:30but he's way behind in terms of his grasp of the current module.
05:36Rugby is Dylan's best thing.
05:37It's how he burns off energy.
05:39It's how he expresses himself.
05:40Why would you do that?
05:41It's an incentive.
05:43No, it's just cruel.
05:45Mrs. Sedgwick, if Dylan doesn't improve,
05:47he'll fall behind in terms of his predicted grades,
05:49university choices.
05:51This is, this is for him.
05:54I've spoken to Mr. Whitchurch, and he agrees.
05:57And Mr. Polly?
05:58Mr. Polly is currently suspended from the school.
06:05Mr. Polly is currently suspended from the school.
06:30Hello, you've reached Alana Polly's phone.
06:32Please leave a message and I'll get back to you.
06:54The I stand hope doesn't wish to press charges.
06:56The incident is the one of Michael outside
06:58when you accosted him.
07:00I accosted him?
07:01Is that how you're choosing to remember it now, yeah?
07:03Either way, it's not so relevant now,
07:05as he doesn't want to press charges.
07:07You should also note,
07:08DS Cassidy will no longer be your FLO.
07:10DC Hammond will remain in place
07:11and we'll find someone to replace Annie.
07:13Who?
07:14That's all to be worked out.
07:16And what if I don't want this person?
07:18If it's not Annie, I don't want anyone.
07:19In fact, I don't want anyone here.
07:20I'm still going to update you
07:22whenever there's a development.
07:24You can show yourselves that.
07:25I don't want anyone here.
07:55Jo 1-Cstick-Dip
08:15I just wanted to check on you.
08:18I'm worried I got a bit heavy.
08:20I just didn't like the way you came charging out of that house.
08:23I told you not to come. I said I couldn't talk.
08:25I know.
08:25Thanks to you I'm no longer a fellow.
08:27I know.
08:28And nobody was charging anywhere Craig.
08:30Look I'm sorry if I misread it. I just didn't want him to hurt you.
08:33Would you listen please.
08:36I don't want us to mess this up.
08:38And we won't.
08:41Annie.
08:45Annie.
08:47I promise you.
08:51You made promises before.
08:58Annie.
09:00Please just let me book the table again and pretend like the day never happened.
09:12Why didn't you just come over and I'll burn you that lasagna like I always used to.
09:18You do that for me.
09:19I do that for you.
09:58You're right?
09:59Why do you just leave it for me.
09:59I don't know.
10:00I'm alright.
10:06You're still here.
10:07You're right.
10:07You're right.
10:07You're right.
10:08You're right.
10:08You're right.
10:13You're right.
10:18Let's go.
10:20Alfie Lamont, strangled a woman in Lee Woods in 2008.
10:25There's a history of attacking women.
10:26One of them was a jogger.
10:27Yeah, Annie.
10:28Come on, let me just finish.
10:29Another was a walker.
10:30Sarah Polly was a walker.
10:31And then he was released from prison in 2021.
10:35And now...
10:36We tried that.
10:36He lives in Abbotsley.
10:37Yeah, his brother Edward does, or Alfie Lamont, in Spain.
10:40Is he?
10:41Been there since February.
10:42How do you know?
10:43We checked.
10:45Just so you know, Annie, we're doing all this.
10:48We're looking at past offenders, similar attacks, unsolved crimes.
10:51While you were working as the FLO, we haven't been sat here doing nothing.
10:54We've been working really hard.
10:56I know how hard you work.
10:57That bag.
10:58By the way, Ivan says it's in the evidence room.
11:00Bag?
11:00Bag of evidence.
11:02It needs logging.
11:03Stuff found at the outer corner of the murder site.
11:05Ivan's asked if you could check it.
11:08Just so you know, if you have time.
11:09Hello?
11:10Yeah, what is it on that way?
11:12We'll have to wait.
11:17I'm, too.
11:32I was shocked.
11:33Oh, my, Austin.
11:33Oh, my, Austin.
11:33Yeah, I think we'll have to wait.
11:35Yeah, he's?
11:46I was shocked.
11:54What are you doing here?
11:55Sir, they're making me do a history test.
11:58I'm going to fail it.
11:59What's this got to do with me?
12:00I teach history.
12:03Me and my coach, sir.
12:05If I fail the test, then my season's over.
12:10Can't play in the final match.
12:14Shoot.
12:15They're not wrong.
12:16You do need to improve.
12:18Who plays in that match?
12:20That's still my decision.
12:22He said you're no longer at the school, sir.
12:30So what's it about, this essay?
12:33The Munich Agreement.
12:34Mr. Bowman says he wants an essay on Chamberlain.
12:36The mistake of trusting Hitler.
12:38Nobody wants an essay on why it was a mistake to trust Hitler.
12:41Isn't that what happened?
12:43And they certainly don't want an essay just relaying what happened.
12:45And what they want is to find out what you think.
12:47They want an argument.
12:48An argument?
12:49Yes.
12:49Pick a line.
12:50Just like in rugby.
12:52Pick an angle.
12:53And the harder the angle, the more impressive it is.
12:57So how about this?
12:57How about that he was right to trust Hitler?
12:59Was he?
13:00Well, that doesn't matter.
13:01That's what you claim.
13:03What I'm trying to...
13:04Well, what Mr. Bowman is trying to do is test your ability to make us see history differently.
13:09In a new way.
13:10See it in your way.
13:12But that's not what I'm doing here.
13:15And you need to leave.
13:16Please, sir.
13:20Our focus stays on one man.
13:23Where was Michael Polley in the three days before Sarah's body was found?
13:27Before we had eyes on him at all times.
13:30We know he left the house on the night she went missing.
13:33But could he have moved the body on another night?
13:36Seems possible.
13:38He's got gaps in his timeline, knowledge of his wife's affair, propensity for reacting physically.
13:45Anything from the CCTV and any doorbell cameras in the area?
13:49No.
13:49Footage is patchy because it's such a rural area.
14:02All done?
14:04What's he want me to do with these?
14:06Just logged and bagged up properly and taken down your evidence door.
14:29Hello?
14:29Have you seen it?
14:30In the Mercury.
14:32The Mercury?
14:32Bradley family claims no new lead in over a decade as more attention has turned to the
14:37unsolved murder of a headmaster's wife.
14:40Brother Gareth bemoans a lack of progress.
14:43Talk of well-intentioned detectives and...
14:46Yeah, go on.
14:48And never feeling like Tina is the priority.
14:52Jesus.
14:54Is this in today's?
14:55Yeah.
14:56After everything you've done.
15:28I couldn't get hold of you.
15:30Well, that's bollocks, for starters.
15:31Where's Carol?
15:32She's not in.
15:33She's never nodding, Gareth.
15:35That's what she tells me to say when there's someone at the door she doesn't want to see.
15:37She's got no choice.
15:38I'll do it.
15:45How did I get to this?
15:51Never feeling like Tina is priority.
15:53Carol, I'm around here every week.
15:55I think about her every day she was my friend.
15:59When did Tina go missing?
16:00What date?
16:02You know the date.
16:06July 17th, 2004.
16:09Between the hours of midnight and 1am.
16:12It's etched on my brain, Carol.
16:14It's a long time ago.
16:17It's getting that way.
16:20And I love you as a friend.
16:24But I can't help thinking, as a detective, if you were going to find her, you'd have done it by
16:33now.
16:43I can do this on a street.
16:46I can do this.
16:47I can do this on a sheet, Leslie, as considered to get her if you lost Lauren.
16:49Well no.
16:52You can do this on my hands, I have a shadow, and there's not a hand here.
17:21I don't know.
17:36What we need to remember is, for us, these events are historical.
17:40He didn't have the benefit of hindsight.
17:42And would we think about Chamberlain the way that we think about him today if we'd lost that war?
17:47No. No, sir.
17:48So what are we saying?
17:51We're saying...
17:51That Chamberlain was...
17:53Right?
17:54Well, we can't use that word, but...
17:56Unlucky?
17:57Yes, he was certainly that.
18:00And maybe...
18:01Honourable.
18:02Because sometimes it's more honourable not to fight.
18:07To try and find compromise and...
18:11A peaceful solution.
18:15And everything is pointing towards conflict and confrontation and the loss again of millions of lives.
18:22Maybe the wisest or the bravest choice is not to engage.
18:28And that's, um...
18:31An active choice in itself.
18:36And so that can be our argument.
18:38That's how we get you to play in the match.
18:40We explain the choices that Chamberlain was facing then, not with the benefit of hindsight.
18:45Yes, sir.
18:46Except it's...
18:47It's not us saying it.
18:50It's...
18:50It's...
18:50I'm writing the essay.
18:52Yes, that's what I meant.
18:55What time's the test?
18:56Five p.m.
18:58Before prep.
18:59Well, let's make some final notes, shall we?
19:12Dylan?
19:13Is he in there?
19:13One of his mates said he saw him come up here.
19:16Dylan!
19:17Out!
19:17Do you hear me?
19:18He's helping with my history exam.
19:20Well, he shouldn't and he knows it.
19:22It's totally inappropriate.
19:23Come on.
19:23It's not inappropriate.
19:24Dylan!
19:26Thank you, sir.
19:27Come on.
19:42Come on.
20:06They're getting closer to proving it's Polly.
20:11Apparently, his mother-in-law reckons he did it.
20:14I know you're not sure, but even Alana's starting to wonder.
20:18I can see it on her face.
20:26Really?
20:27You're not talking to me now.
20:31Annie?
20:38Okay, if anyone asks, I want to put this stuff in the store.
20:41Okay?
20:57Okay, Dylan, it's five o'clock.
20:59Test us now.
21:28Do you want to get a coffee?
21:34One day I'm going to look back on all this
21:38And I'm going to ask myself
21:40Did I do the right thing for the kids?
21:44Saying nothing
21:47Doing nothing
21:48During all this shit you've put us through
21:52No, I do not want to get coffee
22:02No, I do not want to get coffee
22:35I don't know.
23:10Come on.
23:18Can I help you?
23:23Sorry.
23:24Boring, routine check.
23:29I'm looking for Edward Lamont.
23:30Edward or Eddie?
23:31If you want Eddie, you've found him.
23:33And if I want Edward?
23:34I don't mind waiting.
23:36Yeah, you're going to be waiting a while.
23:37Dad died.
23:38Just before Christmas.
23:42I'm sorry.
23:42No, don't me.
23:44All these women come out of the woodwork.
23:46All this other stuff.
23:48In, in, shh, in, in.
23:50Spend all your time thinking you know a guy, taking his word for things.
23:54Turns out he's capable of all sorts.
23:57Do you, um, want to see the death certificate?
23:59I don't mind if it helps you with-
24:01Sorry.
24:02Just in.
24:03Don't.
24:03Don't.
24:04Don't.
24:32VEHRIT
24:33and showed me your essay and it's clear you did a lot of reading on the subject so we first
24:37want
24:37to commend you on that. What do you say? Thank you. He put a lot of work in, didn't you
24:43mate? It's
24:45very important to him playing in the rugby. And getting better at history. Absolutely.
24:50That's the point of this. We both took a look at your essay and there was a lot of great
24:56work in
24:56it, but neither of us felt that we saw the improvement that we were after.
25:02Camberlin hesitated. I'm saying the opposite. Failed to stand up. What I'm saying is that he didn't want
25:09a war in a faraway country. Yes, exactly. We went through that in class. A man who fails to address
25:13his problems. You try and make the argument that it's honourable. It's probably easier to argue that
25:18it's weak. Hold cowardly.
25:30So does this mean I can't play in the match?
25:4225 grand a fucking year. And for what?
25:45The fucker! I don't know what you've done to her!
25:47My mum! Stop it! I mean, this isn't about me!
25:50It's not about me! They're not punishing me!
25:52You don't get it! Stop it! They're punishing you!
25:55You! I'm angry because of you!
25:58Dana!
26:03Come on!
26:39Come on!
26:45Come on!
26:47You!
26:54Let's go.
27:37Annie!
27:39Annie!
27:43Annie!
28:00Sorry, sorry I was getting a bit carried away!
28:05Oh there you are, get me standing around here like some sort of fucking idiot!
28:09Jesus Christ, open the fucking door!
28:14Annie, open the door!
28:17Fuck it, I'll use my own key then.
28:24Ah, fuck, fuck!
28:28You can't go lock on me out of my own fucking house, Annie!
28:32Jesus Christ!
28:34What are you gonna do?
28:36Feed me through the fucking ladder box?
28:39Fucking hell!
28:42I don't know, I thought you'd move beyond all this, all these games.
28:49Annie, I have the forensics report.
28:51What?
28:52For the handbag!
28:55Do you wanna see it or not?
29:03Hello?
29:04I know you can see me.
29:07I'm doing everything right here.
29:09To the ladder.
29:11What?
29:12This is bullshit.
29:14Fuck this.
29:37Is that your plan?
29:39To get me to shout at you and door camera?
29:43I know you're there.
29:45Look, there's a forensic report.
29:48I'm so looking forward to bringing it to you.
29:53I know you're there.
29:53Look at you making me...
29:58I love you.
30:04Remember?
30:05I love you.
30:08I hate it when you make us fight like this.
30:11It triggers me.
30:12You know it does.
30:12Why would you do that?
30:17No wonder they end up going to the peppers.
31:02She'll talk to you, but not in the house.
31:25Paul says I need to go to the police.
31:28It says some of that stuff in Mum's diary is stuff they need to be aware of.
31:35But before we go, Dad, I need to ask you a question.
31:39I need you to turn around and look me in the eyes so I can ask you the question.
31:47And I need you to tell me the truth.
31:57Turn around.
32:05Did you kill Mum?
32:18Can you just let her go?
32:54Sorry, sir.
32:55They didn't want it.
32:56They didn't want what you had to say.
32:58Sorry, was it something?
32:59Well, they didn't like my essay.
33:01They didn't like the fact that I came to you and I asked you for help.
33:04And you couldn't.
33:05You didn't teach me.
33:06You messed it up.
33:07Dylan, I'm sorry you feel like that, but that's not what-
33:09You were teaching me for yourself.
33:13You were thinking of yourself when you were talking to me.
33:18You're best player.
33:19You're best player and you still, you fuck it up!
33:21Don't use that word.
33:22Why?
33:22You're gonna take it out of me again.
33:25What your wife did with my dad!
33:27That's your fault!
33:29It's not mine!
33:39You wouldn't pick yourself, sir.
33:45Because you're a pussy.
33:46Don't use that word.
33:47You're a pussy!
33:48Just watch your mouth.
33:49No, sir!
33:50You watch my mouth!
33:51You don't fight!
33:52You give everyone this speech about how everyone should have each other's backs, yet you don't
33:57do shit for anyone!
34:00No wonder people are pointing fingers!
34:02No wonder everyone's gone!
34:07What are you gonna do about it?
34:10Go on, sir.
34:11What are you gonna do to fix it?
34:26That's what I thought.
34:26What are you gonna do?
34:33I definitely want to know.
34:36Let's look at this show.
34:48I hope you guys are the only one day.
34:49It's time to know and get it.
34:50I have a different picture.
34:51I'm going to put some other pictures.
34:51Here you go.
34:51That's what you want.
34:54You're welcome.
34:55I'm here to meet you in my house.
34:56I'm here to meet you in my room.
34:56I'm here to meet you in my house.
35:05I'm sorry, if he makes you happy, who am I to judge?
35:10I'm gonna back off.
35:16Gov?
35:17Gov, the daughter's here.
35:18Wants to give us a new statement.
35:20Yeah.
36:12Hello, you've reached Alana Polly's phone.
36:14Please leave a message and I'll get back to you.
36:41I want to tell you everything but I want Paul to stay.
36:44Alana, this is all on your terms.
36:54There have been a lot of fighting between mum and dad.
37:00That's the first thing.
37:03In the evenings, one time after they thought I was teaching but I was still in the house.
37:10She was scared of him.
37:12You think she was scared?
37:14I know she was.
37:15But she told you.
37:18She wrote it in her diary.
37:22We had mum's diary.
37:26They took the pages out because they were private.
37:28And where are those pages now?
37:36They bond them.
37:37Her and Michael.
37:39She's worried that she's gonna get in trouble for that but I've said that she shouldn't be.
37:43It's best to tell you everything.
37:46That's right, Alana.
37:50Alana, as long as you tell us the truth, you've nothing to be worried about, okay?
37:57She was scared of him.
37:59That's what it said.
38:01And I've been thinking about it ever since.
38:05How I've lived with him all this time.
38:08That he loves me.
38:11But I don't really know him.
38:14You know, what he feels.
38:17What he felt about your mum.
38:21And what he feels about you.
38:23Oh, anything.
38:27They don't.
38:29Do they?
38:31Men like that, they tell you the practical stuff but they can never let you in.
38:37They can't.
38:41Then we went to see him this morning, didn't we?
38:45Yeah, I wanted to ask him.
38:48To his face.
38:51If he killed your mum.
38:56You asked him that.
39:00He didn't say anything.
39:03The day.
39:05The day.
