00:14Stay back! I'm telling you, we're with the police!
00:18You shouldn't be in here.
00:24Hello, mate.
00:25Hello, Mum.
00:27Come on, Luna.
00:28Good girl.
00:29Good girl.
00:30Can you hold her for me?
00:31Come on, Luna.
00:32Come on, Judith.
00:34She's not picking up.
00:38Listen, um, is it strange that we're both here, you know, at the same time?
00:44Brendan, we're in the middle of a murder investigation.
00:46Yeah, I know, but it's just the cops...
00:47What?
00:49Word travels fast, I say.
00:51Something like that.
00:54No.
00:56Sorry.
00:56Get up!
01:06Yes, yes, thank you, Jason.
01:08Has Alice gone to get Jessica?
01:09Yes, she's gone to get her.
01:10I don't believe they never have you.
01:13Did you kill him?
01:14Did you kill Freddy?
01:15What?
01:16No, of course I didn't.
01:17I didn't kill anyone.
01:19This is my house.
01:20I'm Hector Bly.
01:21You've been spying on us.
01:22Not on you.
01:24On the house.
01:25On my belongings.
01:26Look, I'm not going to hurt you.
01:28Let's put this down, shall we?
01:31I haven't hurt anyone.
01:32Sit down.
01:34Even if you're telling the truth, this is all still highly illegal.
01:38She's absolutely right.
01:39It's against the law to record guests in a privately rented accommodation.
01:42Mr. Bly, meet D.I. Malik.
01:45Tanika, our ghost has been found.
01:49Look, this camera's on Ulrich the Bear.
01:51This on the armour.
01:53The French cabinet was a wedding present.
01:56And that painting's an original.
01:57I can't believe you've been sat up here the whole time watching us.
02:01A few months ago, some drunken louts smashed my medal cabinet.
02:05I thought I'm not having it.
02:06Mr. Bly, you're aware there's a murder investigation going on inside your house that you're now a viable suspect for?
02:11I didn't even know the chap.
02:13Look, if I was going to murder a guest, which I wouldn't,
02:17I've had a lot worse groups than this one.
02:19We're going to need the files from last night.
02:21Please download them.
02:22But I'll still need you to come to the station, answer some questions.
02:26This way, please.
02:27I must say this is a complete affront.
02:29And I shall be sending you a bill for that attic door you both busted.
02:33Trust you lot to be so heavy handed.
02:34If the door hadn't mysteriously locked itself, Mr. Bly, we wouldn't have had to break it.
02:38Why would you rent your house out if you don't want desks?
02:41This place has been in my family for 300 years.
02:44You think I want to be the one who has to sell it?
02:46This should have all the footage from yesterday until a few minutes ago.
02:51Uh, Hector.
02:52Uh, a quick question for you.
02:53Ah, questions, questions.
02:55Have you by any chance seen a copy of this book in the last day?
02:58Never seen that book before in my life.
03:00How long will this take?
03:01Do you want me to sit in the bank like a criminal?
03:04Well, it would be a bit cosy if you joined us at the front, wouldn't you?
03:08Mind your head.
03:23I've already told DC Hackett my lawyer won't be able to get here until the morning.
03:26We're more than happy to wait.
03:27Right.
03:28Well, I'll see you then.
03:30Oh, come on, Jess.
03:32Can I call you Jess?
03:34No.
03:34Right.
03:35Um, well, I was just going to say that, you know, it could get messy.
03:40Mixing personal with professional.
03:43Especially since you had an affair with the victim.
03:45How on earth did you jump to that conclusion?
03:48You requested a receipt for a hotel room booked under Freddie's name on the night of the reunion.
03:52And you told us that you didn't see him that evening.
03:55I wasn't having an affair with Freddie.
03:57So, how do you explain the receipt?
04:00It's complicated.
04:02I'm not denying I asked for it.
04:05Oh.
04:06It's awkward, isn't it?
04:08I mean, sometimes people do stuff.
04:11They don't want to be seen by anyone or caught.
04:15And that's it, isn't it?
04:17You might not have been having an affair with Freddie, but you knew that he was having an affair.
04:22And why would you ask for the receipt unless it was useful to you for another reason?
04:31Things have been rough at work.
04:34There was a partner position opening up.
04:37It's competitive, so I had to bring something big to the table.
04:40What does that have to do with Freddie?
04:42His wife's company developed a hybrid solar generator system.
04:45Say what now?
04:46It's amazing for the environment, and it would have bought in a ton of money.
04:50I saw him with that woman at the hotel by accident, and it was like it just fell into my
04:55lap.
04:55I'm hardly proud of blackmailing your friend.
04:59I'm assuming that's what you did.
05:01After a little push, Freddie agreed to help.
05:04But the contracts weren't signed yet.
05:06I mean, why would I do him any harm before the deal was done?
05:09You stalled us by a day.
05:11You're not students anymore.
05:12I need you all to grow up and start cooperating.
05:17That means you as well.
05:21Look, there is something else you should know.
05:23The woman, the one Freddie was having an affair with.
05:26Her name's Sasha Hill.
05:28Hill as in?
05:30Ryan's ex-wife.
05:32Good lord.
05:33And that's all I know.
05:34Promise.
05:40A moment, Judith.
05:42How can I help?
05:43Don't think it went unnoticed that you and Bex found that room together.
05:46Solid teamwork, that.
05:47When Bex specifically wasn't supposed to be investigating.
05:50It was entirely my fault, I assure you.
05:52I coerced her.
05:54Bex has already been seen to withhold information.
05:57If the CPS heard about her involvement, it could jeopardise a conviction down the line and mean no more investigating
06:02for you.
06:03At all.
06:04Ever.
06:05I know you don't want that.
06:07It would never come to that.
06:08I promise.
06:09But it so easily could if you carry on as you have been.
06:12You have to take this seriously.
06:14I will.
06:15We will.
06:15Go.
06:16I managed to track down Sasha Hill.
06:18She's in Singapore for work.
06:20Been there the last week.
06:21Right.
06:21Well, let's see what Ryan has to say.
06:23Yeah.
06:24I think we'll take this one.
06:27Oh.
06:27Please.
06:28You go ahead.
06:31That told us, didn't it?
06:32Us?
06:32I wasn't even involved.
06:35Oh, I'm guilty by association now.
06:38Where's your van?
06:39And why's Luna here?
06:42It's her.
06:42You will not believe who I bumped into at speed, are you?
06:50Have you got news?
06:51We actually have more questions.
06:55Did Freddie ever talk to you about his marriage?
06:58About him and Marie?
06:59Not really.
07:00Why?
07:01Did he seem happy?
07:02Yeah.
07:03I mean, he wouldn't shut up about the new job.
07:06But he talked about Marie.
07:08Their daughter Ellie, too.
07:13They were taking her to Disneyland in the summer.
07:16I can't get my head around it.
07:19Why are you asking about Marie?
07:21Well, new evidence suggests that Freddie was having an affair in the months before his death.
07:26Did you know anything about that?
07:27No.
07:29I thought Freddie was happy.
07:31He adored Marie.
07:33Are you sure?
07:35Ryan, the woman he was having an affair with was Sasha Hill.
07:39Sasha?
07:41And Freddie?
07:42Your friend was having an affair with your ex-wife and you knew nothing about it?
07:49You think I knew?
07:50And what?
07:51Killed him for it?
07:54Sasha and I married at 23, but we were divorced by 27.
07:58I haven't even spoken to her in about a decade.
08:01It all got a bit messy when she came for a piece of my foundation.
08:04We heard you and Freddie were rivals.
08:06Well, yeah. We competed over everything at uni.
08:08Including girlfriends.
08:10I guess.
08:12But that was all a very long time ago.
08:14And you don't think Freddie was trying to provoke a reaction?
08:17I think you know enough about Freddie by now to know that if he wanted a reaction,
08:21he'd have been pretty vocal about him and Sasha.
08:25Tell me I'm wrong.
08:31I believe them.
08:32I don't think you knew about the affair.
08:34I'm inclined to agree.
08:36Every lead is all a bloody dead end with this lot.
08:38This lying and cheating.
08:40It's exhausting.
08:41Let's hope Hector Blight's camera footage sheds some light.
09:02I can't believe it.
09:04I knew I heard footsteps upstairs.
09:05But the idea that he was there the whole times.
09:09There's some questions here if you want one.
09:13Okay.
09:17Jess, we should talk.
09:20Una wasn't trying to throw you under the bus.
09:23Plus, I'm the one who passed that information on.
09:26I'm going.
09:27This afternoon.
09:29I know it makes me look guilty, but I already do.
09:32Thanks to you both.
09:33Pot kettle black.
09:36I was telling the truth.
09:37Everyone seems really keen on that.
09:39I'm not upset you told the police.
09:41Someone murdered Freddie.
09:42Of course you should tell the police.
09:44But you didn't tell me.
09:45Well, I didn't think you cared.
09:47It's the principal.
09:48Do you know how stupid I feel?
09:50Knowing that you and Freddie have this little secret behind my back.
09:53I'd say we're all feeling a little betrayed here.
09:55Get in line.
09:56Your ego's the least of our worries.
09:59Can we just talk this out?
10:01How did you skate under the police radar?
10:04What, one quick chat and they're not interested in you?
10:07And eavesdropping on conversations that don't concern you.
10:09You seem really interested in what's happening to us.
10:12It's not Una's fault.
10:13Don't defend her.
10:14I know you were listening too.
10:15You're not as perfect as you think you are.
10:17I don't think I'm perfect.
10:18I'm done.
10:19I'm going.
10:28I'm gonna call home.
10:35And we think we can pinpoint the moment of Freddie's death.
10:38Look, here.
10:40Una is in the frame at 2121 and 34 seconds.
10:45That's where she hears Freddie shout.
10:47It also means Una's alibi checks out, so that's a good start.
10:49Well, this is even better.
10:51There's a camera in the entrance hall pointing at the bear.
10:54Bex passes it seconds before the shout.
10:56And immediately afterwards, her and Jessica enter frame and head towards the stairs.
11:01So, that leaves Ryan and Oscar.
11:04Anything?
11:06Look at this camera.
11:08Wait for it.
11:102121 and 34 seconds.
11:13So, Oscar.
11:15You might stop enjoying this so much now.
11:192121 and 34.
11:20That's all of them.
11:21Yep.
11:22Yep.
11:22They were all on camera at the time of death or immediately afterwards.
11:26What about Hector Bly?
11:27Well, there's a camera blind spot around his secret room.
11:30But we did a sweep of his computer to check his alibi.
11:33And he was playing internet chess at the time.
11:35Yeah, it's called Blitz chess.
11:36It's super fast.
11:37Every move is recorded on the server.
11:39He didn't have time to leave his desk during the match.
11:41Then, who killed Freddy?
11:46I don't understand.
11:47We've already been over this.
11:48You know where we were and what happened.
11:50And you said we're on cameras.
11:51We can't be one of us.
11:52Our problem lies in the fact that two of you saw another person outside the library.
11:56But if the evidence suggests there wasn't, then surely that's the most likely option.
11:59It was dark.
12:00I don't think they know what they saw.
12:01We didn't just imagine someone.
12:03He's right.
12:03There was definitely someone there.
12:05But I don't get it.
12:06You find a secret room with someone hiding back there.
12:10Watching us.
12:10And you're questioning us.
12:12Surely he was outside the library.
12:13Mr. Bly has an alibi covering that period of time.
12:16So do we.
12:17Oh, she speaks.
12:18Just because I'm not getting angry doesn't mean I don't want to get out of here as much as you
12:21do.
12:21No, you're loving the gossip too much.
12:22You're not being helpful.
12:24Oi!
12:25Enough!
12:27In case you've forgotten, you're all part of a murder investigation.
12:30We are trying to get to the truth.
12:32We've told you everything we know.
12:34I just want to go home.
12:36I'm already packed.
12:38We're trying to get to the bottom of this as quickly as we possibly can.
12:41And for that to happen, we really need you to stay here.
12:45You are due to check out in two hours anyway.
12:47Stay until then and then leave as planned.
12:49Whatever you need.
12:51I can do two hours.
12:53Okay.
12:54Fine.
12:57Who's that?
12:59This is Hector Bly.
13:00You've got a nerve coming back here.
13:02This is my house.
13:03Where else will I go?
13:04Don't mind me.
13:08Oh, come in. It's open.
13:12Oh.
13:13Mrs. Potts, I've got my quote.
13:15I thought I'd deliver it.
13:16A little example of the personal service you can expect.
13:19Of light.
13:28Oh.
13:29Now that's impressive.
13:31Yeah, I've always been good at word searches, me.
13:33But those cryptic crosswords, blues and that, never made any sense.
13:36Oh, it's just a matter of practice.
13:39And patience.
13:41Some of it's as simple as words with multiple meanings.
13:44For example, you might write shark.
13:46Now, you could mean the titular star of the film, Jaws.
13:50Or you could mean someone who purposefully exploits and swindles people.
13:54I've not seen the film.
13:56Then there are hidden words.
13:57How do you hide words?
13:58Well, you hide smaller words in larger words or phrases.
14:12You know, thank you so much for your quote.
14:16But I'm afraid I have to go.
14:18If I could just have a minute, we could just...
14:19No, no, there's somewhere I need to be really quite urgently.
14:21If you could just...
14:22Again?
14:23You've been extremely helpful, but I'm afraid I won't require your services.
14:27But I will leave you an excellent review.
14:30Right, yeah, sure.
14:32What's the problem?
14:33We aren't going to be able to stall them any longer,
14:35and we don't have the evidence to detain them.
14:37Once they scatter back across the country,
14:39it's going to make everything harder.
14:42I need you to double-check everything we've got so far,
14:44and any time someone from that house appears on one of Hector's cameras,
14:48I want it logged.
14:49As far as I'm concerned, any of them could still be responsible.
14:53You're missing something.
15:00Wings!
15:03Wings!
15:04She's got this up there.
15:06Kitchen.
15:16Let's try upstairs.
15:18Oh, what are you doing?
15:19Looking for you.
15:20Quietly.
15:21You're going to get me in trouble with Tanika.
15:23Again.
15:31What's going on?
15:33We need to ask Hector a question.
15:36And we thought it might be best coming from you.
15:38He was hardly my biggest fan.
15:40But you're so good with people.
15:42Even Mrs. Eddingham's obsessed with you.
15:44You're so personable and lovely.
15:46Yeah, exactly.
15:47But he's...
15:49Bex, if you help us with this...
15:52We'll tell you all about Susie's date with Brendan.
15:56Susie's what? With who?
15:58Come on.
15:59Walk this way.
16:12Keep off the grass.
16:14Sorry.
16:15Sorry.
16:17You here to accuse me of murder again?
16:20No.
16:20It's just...
16:21You have a really beautiful home.
16:23I didn't.
16:24I didn't have a chance to say before.
16:30Anything else?
16:31I had a small question.
16:33Yep.
16:35Your beautiful library.
16:37I was walking around there earlier and thought,
16:39you know what I fancy?
16:40Reading something a bit Gothic.
16:42I don't suppose you have a copy of Dracula, do you?
16:45You think my house is like Dracula's castle?
16:48Not at all.
16:49I just love that story and thought I'd pass the time.
16:52Better than burying my head in my phone.
16:54People are too reliant on technology these days.
16:56I don't trust it.
16:58It's in the library.
16:59Far left shelf.
17:00High up.
17:01There's an entire Gothic section.
17:04The grass.
17:05Keep off the grass.
17:08Susie, so you just talked about the case.
17:11No sparks.
17:12There wasn't time for anything else.
17:14You know, you really sold this as a more exciting story.
17:17Well, it got you to talk to Hector, didn't it?
17:19And that got us here.
17:22Ooh.
17:23Wait, wait, wait.
17:25Here we go.
17:26No, hang on.
17:30Dracula?
17:31How is that possible?
17:32Did he have two copies?
17:34Not exactly.
17:35Freddy needed a book that was bigger than Ryan's
17:38and a title he could easily remember
17:40for a man who did his PhD in Gothic literature.
17:44Dracula would have been an obvious choice.
17:46He ripped out the pages
17:48and used it to hide Ryan's book.
17:51So why would he do that?
17:52Because I think this book is important.
17:54And he needed to keep it safe.
17:58Another nice message from Ryan.
18:01Exactly like the others.
18:02There's got to be something.
18:03Wait, wait.
18:04There's something tucked inside.
18:08What is it?
18:11It says York University.
18:14It's the front cover of a dissertation.
18:16Oh.
18:17This is the essay that got Oscar thrown out of uni.
18:19So why would Freddy have this?
18:21He was working back at York.
18:23Maybe he found it.
18:24But shoving this in Oscar's face...
18:27That could have pushed him over the edge.
18:29You need to go and talk to him.
18:34We found Freddy's copy of Ryan's book.
18:37Oh.
18:38That's...
18:39Good.
18:40This was inside.
18:41It had been hidden quite strategically.
18:46What's she insinuating?
18:47Freddy brought it back.
18:48To taunt you about your failure.
18:51That's why you killed him, isn't it?
19:00What are you talking about?
19:02I didn't kill Freddy.
19:03You didn't mind Freddy's outburst about the muddy trousers.
19:06But having him mock you about the worst moment in your life...
19:09Nah.
19:10It was all too much, wasn't it?
19:12You killed him and went to great lengths to hide the evidence.
19:15No, no.
19:15That's not what happened.
19:16It doesn't look good, does it?
19:18It's evidence that links you directly to the murder victim, and it gives you a motive.
19:23Oscar, please, just tell us the truth.
19:26This is the first time I've seen it, honestly.
19:28Even if Freddy was going to show him, he didn't have a chance before he died.
19:31Why would he bother hiding it if he didn't know you had it?
19:33I'm telling you, I don't know.
19:34I'm not gonna get blamed for something I didn't do again.
19:37Not when everyone else is bolting around, behaving terribly.
19:40Jessica blackmailing Freddy.
19:42Ryan playing the nice guy, pretending he doesn't care that Freddy's sleeping with Sasha.
19:46Those gifts.
19:47They didn't even write the dedication.
19:49I did.
19:50Big shot didn't have time, apparently.
19:51And Una pestering us all to come here and then throwing around the blame behind everyone's back.
19:56I don't even know these people anymore.
19:59What happened to get you expelled from university?
20:03They found evidence of plagiarism in the essay and matched the signature on this cover sheet of one of my
20:07passport.
20:08And in their minds, I was instantly guilty.
20:10Did you find it?
20:11I tried, but when I went to find the original essay on my laptop, the entire folder was gone.
20:15I don't know if someone deleted it or if it was just a computer error, but there was no trace
20:20at all.
20:21No proof it ever existed.
20:23Well, that's convenient.
20:24I swear I'd never seen the plagiarized version before.
20:28You must believe me, surely.
20:32I don't want this.
20:38It's all happening again, isn't it?
20:42No one believed me then and now.
20:43No one would believe I didn't kill Freddy.
21:01What's up?
21:04Something's not right.
21:07I know that look.
21:08It doesn't make sense.
21:10We're assuming Freddy hid a single piece of paper.
21:13Yes?
21:14Uh-huh.
21:15So why did he go to such lengths to hide it?
21:17He could have slipped this bit of paper into any book on that shelf.
21:20And it would have taken us days, maybe even weeks, to find it.
21:23But he hid it alongside this book.
21:29Well, go on.
21:30Well, it suggests they're only incriminating if they're together.
21:38A clue hidden within a clue.
21:42Here, hold this open for a moment.
21:50Look at the back.
21:53The handwriting doesn't match.
21:55If what Oscar said was true, then the writing in the book is his.
21:59So why doesn't it match the handwriting on the back of the cover sheet?
22:05I think someone forged this cover sheet to make it look like Oscar had written the plagiarized essay.
22:13But who?
22:15What if Freddy did it?
22:18Oscar found out and wanted revenge?
22:21Maybe.
22:23But we need to work out whose handwriting this is.
22:27How are we going to get handwriting samples from a group of people who are already on high alert?
22:31Well, if it's one of our suspects, this could point us towards the killer.
22:37But is it enough to implicate them?
22:55Well, I know you're busy logging Hector's footage, but I wondered if you could kindly take me through some of
23:03it.
23:04Sure thing. But all our suspects are accounted for.
23:06I don't care.
23:07Except...
23:08This person.
23:10And if it wasn't Hector, who was it?
23:14Well, that's exactly what we're here to try and work out.
23:18You're mostly in the kitchen and sitting room.
23:24This is when they leave for lunch.
23:29And then...
23:30Stop!
23:32Who's that?
23:324.17pm.
23:34That's before the guests came back for dinner.
23:36That's Ryan.
23:37He got back early to do the treasure hunt.
23:39Of course he did.
23:40Got excited.
23:41Thought I'd found something.
23:42Could you take us forward to the moment Freddy died?
23:46Here we go.
23:49You know.
23:52There's Oscar.
23:54And Ryan.
23:56I think this might be the quietest you two have ever been.
23:59Sorry, didn't mean to disturb.
24:01What have you got?
24:02No, that's it.
24:03What is?
24:05There's no sound.
24:07Judith, we need to have clearer conversations when this happens.
24:11Could you play that one more time for me, please?
24:17They're all turning towards the noise.
24:20In their witness statements, they all say they heard the shout.
24:26Now, if the shout came from the library, Oscar would have looked down and left.
24:33But on the footage, he instinctively looks down and right.
24:40Oh, that's very clever.
24:43I think I know who the killer is.
24:46We have to get back to the house.
24:48And I need to make a call.
24:49Well, we better get our skates on.
24:51Bec said everyone's getting ready to leave.
24:53My band's around the back, Judith.
25:06Susie, are you sure this is the right way?
25:08Trust me, Judith.
25:13We gave them time.
25:14We can't wait here forever.
25:17We're heading to the same station so it just makes sense to.
25:21I'm not running.
25:22I don't think that.
25:24Call me if you need anything.
25:27I'll message you.
25:28I'll message you.
25:45Going nowhere!
25:47Whoa, whoa, whoa!
25:50Are you crazy?
25:52Are you mad?
25:53We know who murdered Freddy.
25:54The police are on their way.
25:56You need to come back to the house.
25:58If you're still suggesting I'm responsible, I'd...
25:59We're not.
26:00Don't worry.
26:01Here.
26:04Turn it over.
26:07That's not my writing.
26:08The university may have matched your signature, but no one considered that the most insignificant writing on the document could
26:15be the most revealing.
26:17Someone framed you, Oscar.
26:19Someone framed you, Oscar.
26:19And we can prove it.
26:26Yeah, I love that. Thanks.
26:30How did you get here this quickly?
26:32Yeah, I know a few shortcuts.
26:34You are very lucky that the speed camera on Winter Hill is out of action.
26:38Is everyone else still in the house?
26:40Yes.
26:40Let's go. Now.
26:43I guess we will.
26:45I guess we will.
26:55You see, people are surprising.
27:00Freddie was surprising.
27:02All weekend, we've been hearing about Freddie's faults, but you were still friends with him.
27:06You wanted to spend time with him.
27:08We were thinking about what Freddie did wrong that could have provoked his murderer.
27:14What we didn't consider is that Freddie died because he did something right.
27:20Judith, who killed Freddie?
27:24Ryan, would you like to continue, or shall I?
27:28Are you joking?
27:30Absolutely not.
27:31He's also responsible for Oscar's expulsion from university.
27:38Are you really suggesting I ruined one friend's life and then killed another?
27:44We've been over this.
27:46I didn't know about Freddie and Sasha, and why would I have framed Oscar?
27:51Well, let's start there. I don't think you intended to frame Oscar, not originally.
27:56Bex told us how you struggled at university.
27:59In the foreword to your book, you say yourself, it was the toughest time of your life.
28:05How you were suddenly a little fish in a big pond.
28:08And?
28:08When you got to your dissertation, you panicked, and you plagiarized material to get it finished.
28:14But when it came to actually handing it in, you knew you wouldn't get away with it.
28:18So you put your cover sheet on Oscar's essay, forged another, signed supposedly by Oscar, and put that on the
28:25plagiarized essay.
28:27You knew you'd have to submit something to finish the course, and you couldn't bear the thought of failing.
28:33Faking the signature of someone you knew so well can't have been hard.
28:38You even deleted the essay from his computer.
28:40Well, you lived together. You certainly had the access.
28:44Oscar was devastated.
28:46He didn't notice the handwriting on the back of the cover sheet that would have exposed you.
28:53You hired me.
28:55I worked for you.
28:57All these years you knew what you did, and you said nothing!
29:00I didn't...
29:02Oscar, I'm sorry, but this has nothing to do with Freddy's death.
29:08I didn't kill him!
29:09We're getting to that.
29:10Freddy must have been digging around in all your records,
29:13presumably looking for something funny to bring back to the reunion.
29:18Dirt gossip.
29:19But what he found was the dissertation in Oscar's records.
29:24He brought it back and confronted you, didn't he?
29:28What's up?
29:29We're about to go.
29:31You know the unexpected bonus about my new job?
29:34Access to all the records.
29:38Everyone's grades.
29:40The reports.
29:42The disciplinaries.
29:44There's not a shred of evidence for any of this.
29:46You said that you grew out of the rivalry, and I believe you might have, but I don't think Freddy
29:52did.
29:52That's why he was sleeping with your ex-wife.
29:56Freddy discovered something huge.
29:58He wasn't going to stand by with the knowledge that you had cheated, framed Oscar, and lied about it.
30:04And it must have been a nice added bonus that he'd get to destroy his old rival's reputation while restoring
30:10Oscars.
30:11That's your handwriting on the back, isn't it?
30:13Yeah, I'd recognize it anywhere.
30:14You swapped Oscar's dissertation for yours.
30:17Looks like you've got an apology to make.
30:20You can't be serious.
30:21You can't believe anything with that.
30:23Oh, I bet I can.
30:25I think Oscar would give it a good shot, too.
30:27That lost him his entire degree.
30:30Do you think he's going to be happy knowing the real reason he ended up as your lucky?
30:33I mean, what were you thinking?
30:37What are you going to do?
30:38Give you the benefit of the doubt.
30:40And the deadline.
30:42If you don't say something by the time we leave, I will.
30:47Let me show you something.
30:53I'm on camera at the time of the murder.
30:55We all are.
30:57We went back over that footage a million times and Judith found something we had all missed.
31:01You told us yourself you had extra access to the house that day.
31:05Your treasure.
31:07On the recordings you move from room to room all perfectly innocent.
31:11That's right.
31:12You spend just over a minute planting a clue in each room except for here.
31:19Where you spend nearly six minutes in the camera blind spot right by Hector's secret door.
31:27Why would you spend so much time in this small space unless you'd found something?
31:33Hector's cameras.
31:35There was a man hiding in there.
31:37How did I supposedly find his hideout? He'd have seen me.
31:41Because he wasn't there the whole time.
31:43I reckon you didn't have much of a plan until then.
31:46And with only six of you in the house, you knew that hurting Freddie would be too risky.
31:50Because the police would know it was one of you.
31:52And you couldn't let the news about the dissertation get out because that would ruin everything that you'd built up.
31:57Your charitable foundation, your reputation as an honourable man.
32:02Knowing about the cameras, it gave you the ingredients for the perfect alibi.
32:08You even planted the idea that there was another person in the house first.
32:11The figure outside the library.
32:15If I saw that person, there was someone there.
32:17Exactly!
32:17You did see someone.
32:19You saw Ryan.
32:20And Ryan saw you.
32:22And he knew that if he corroborated what you'd seen, then you'd both look innocent.
32:30A shared witness statement.
32:32And the suggestion of another person in the house who could have carried out the murder.
32:37Something that ultimately led us to Hector.
32:41When you walked into the library and saw Freddie, you spotted the knife.
32:49You took it.
32:53And you killed him.
33:01Very entertaining, but you're forgetting that I was on camera when everyone heard the shout.
33:06You were.
33:07We'd always assumed that it was Freddie who shouted.
33:10But in reality, it could be any man's voice.
33:13Which explains why Oscar looks the wrong way when he hears the sound from the CCTV.
33:17Because the shout didn't come from the library.
33:19It came from you in the hallway.
33:21Freddie was already dead.
33:25You knew exactly where the camera pointed.
33:28And with your back to it,
33:31you shouted.
33:34Then you turned to the supposed source of the noise.
33:37Knowing everyone else would too.
33:39It's quite an impressive sleight of hand.
33:41But the only thing you didn't find was the dissertation cover.
33:44I'm guessing you searched the house when you set the treasure hunt.
33:47But you had no idea Freddie would have hidden it so well.
33:49Freddie knew you'd be after the evidence.
33:51He anticipated that you'd try and steal the dissertation cover back.
33:56That's why he went to such great pains to hide it.
33:59Paired with a sample of Oscar's real handwriting.
34:03He didn't realize how far you'd go to silence it.
34:09Who's that?
34:10Perfect timing.
34:10I'm here!
34:12Is that Colin?
34:13Yes it is.
34:14I'm sorry. It took long as I expected.
34:16But I've got it.
34:18It was at the bottom of the ottoman.
34:19I think you're right on time.
34:22Bex, do you mind if I borrow this?
34:24Susie, have you got the dissertation?
34:28Happy Birthday Bex.
34:30Here's to another 20 years of friendship.
34:33Love, Ryan.
34:36The handwriting matches.
34:38Conclusive proof.
34:54I didn't want to hurt him.
34:58It all spiraled.
35:01You've got to believe that.
35:04But after everything.
35:08I couldn't risk the foundation.
35:10Everything I built.
35:12Being exposed as a cheat.
35:14And a liar.
35:15And what?
35:17All as part of Freddy's ego trip.
35:21If there was any other way.
35:24I don't know.
35:26What else could I do?
35:28Think of how many people the foundation helps.
35:32It wasn't about me.
35:37It wasn't.
35:40It was only ever about you.
36:16I don't understand why I can't keep hosting.
36:19I can't afford the outkeep.
36:20I'll lose it.
36:22We've been over this, Mr. Bly.
36:23Hidden cameras are illegal.
36:24You might not be able to host anymore.
36:26But why don't you open it up.
36:29Let people see it.
36:29Wander the gardens.
36:31Charge a modest fee for the pleasure.
36:33You could even officially install cameras that way too.
36:37Something to think about.
36:38But the public.
36:39Not sure how I feel about that.
36:40More people.
36:42Well, you're lucky that none of this lot want to press charges.
36:45I still think the courts would side with me.
36:50Tanika, can I ask you a favour?
36:53Come here.
36:54I can't.
36:56I don't know what to say.
36:57I think it's going to be a while before any of us know what to say.
37:01I know it's not exactly like we're close anymore, but we've been through so much.
37:05I really don't want to lose contact.
37:06Me neither.
37:07You're always welcome at the bicarage.
37:09Just text me.
37:10I'll take you up on that.
37:15We haven't been the best at keeping in touch.
37:17But let's at least make the effort.
37:20Oh, fucking mistake.
37:23So what's next?
37:25Now that you can properly contest the plagiarism.
37:27I guess I can finally appeal the university.
37:29There's a lot of paperwork in my future.
37:32I hate how everything's turned out, but I'm so pleased for you.
37:35Just hope I can salvage the foundation.
37:37With Ryan gone, it's not going to be easy.
37:39With you, it'll be in good hands.
37:53What?
37:54You had me on the board.
37:57No, well...
37:58You could have picked a better photo.
38:00Well, I think it's lovely, and it wasn't the same without you.
38:03Oh, here comes the hero of the hour.
38:07I'm just very glad to have been helpful.
38:10I'm very happy to have you home.
38:13I can safely say I didn't enjoy having to keep things so formal in this one.
38:16You did everything you had to do.
38:18I'm just sorry it caused you extra stress.
38:20You're worth the trouble.
38:22And...
38:23Welcome back.
38:24Yes.
38:29Hey, you.
38:30Oh, look.
38:31We should talk.
38:32Oh, Brendan, it's too soon.
38:33No, no.
38:34When am I going to meet your folks?
38:35Well, they live on the Island Man.
38:36No, wait, let me guess.
38:37It's not you, it's me.
38:38It's not where I'm going.
38:39I...
38:39What I'm trying to say is that I just appreciate if you didn't tell...
38:42Brendan!
38:43There's no reason to be embarrassed.
38:45You know, putting yourself out there dating and all that.
38:48It's not for the faint hide, is it?
38:49Yes.
38:51It's a brave thing.
38:52Mm-mm.
38:53But don't worry.
38:54I'm not going to tell anyone from your tea.
38:55Thanks.
38:57But I'm afraid that ship may have already sailed with those two.
39:05Of course it has some.
39:08Thank you for your help.
39:10Thank you for your help.
39:10I don't think anyone else could have got to the bottom of that mess.
39:12It was all so...
39:13Well, you couldn't have known it was him, Bex.
39:16All that time, the shame and guilt festering.
39:19The man who got into that police car isn't the man you went to university with.
39:23I know.
39:24I just can't believe you kept lying.
39:26Right up until the net fully closed in.
39:29It'll take a bit of time to process.
39:30Of course it will.
39:31But we'll be there to help in any way we can.
39:34I was always told that time doesn't define friendship.
39:38And I think that's particularly relevant to us.
39:43So if you and Brendan aren't going to be a thing, which I think is a shame, by the way,
39:47how did the rest of the speed dating go?
39:49Do you really want to know?
39:50Mm-hmm.
39:50You better buckle up, ladies.
39:52Because first there was Greg.
39:53How would you feel about Christmas jumpers in this weather?
39:56And then he went on and on about glasses.
39:58And he stopped for breath.
39:59Oh, and then it was Josh.
40:00He's obsessed with avocado.
40:01When he comes to that, he talks about avocado.
40:03Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
40:06Oh, no.
40:06Oh, no.
40:10Oh, no.
40:12Oh, no.
40:12Oh, no.
40:13Oh, no.
40:13Oh, no, no.
40:13Oh, no.
40:15Oh, no, no.
40:17Oh, no, no.
