00:05There's someone under there.
00:09Why haven't you called an ambulance?
00:11Dad!
00:14James, are you alright?
00:16So what exactly did Jackie say?
00:18That James Wickham decided to have a nosy under his boat
00:21before they got back, and it fell on him.
00:25That he's okay?
00:26Yeah, but Jackie's pretty shaken.
00:32Susie, what are you doing? We told Jackie we were on our way.
00:34Hang on, this boat's been abandoned.
00:37Oh, ye of little faith.
00:41I told you Greg Cooper would be on a boat.
00:46But if it is him, where is he now?
00:48I'd better come to meet you.
00:53Come on, Jackie's waiting.
00:58He's lucky to be alive.
01:00And it's one shock after another.
01:03That's why we're here.
01:05To make sure this incident isn't related to Kit Harcourt's death in any way.
01:08Well, look, as I said, it was an accident, pure and simple.
01:11Bottom line, I should have waited for Harry.
01:14We understand Harry Tynan resented the fact that you didn't support him when Kit Harcourt accused him of stealing.
01:19The evidence was there.
01:21I had clubbed Commodore, so I had no choice.
01:23This is water under the bridge, and Harry still services our boats.
01:27And that's why I didn't think it was worth bringing it to your attention.
01:30I really don't think this should be investigated any further.
01:34Please.
01:35Harry and Jackie have been through enough.
01:39He's like the Scarlet Pimpernel.
01:41They seek him here, they seek him there.
01:44See, he did say he'd be on a boat.
01:46All right.
01:47Don't rub it in.
01:48So what now?
01:51Well, what does a drinker do when he runs out of booze?
01:54They go about more.
01:56Any shops on the side of the river?
01:58No.
01:59But there is a pub in staggering distance.
02:04You've got to believe me.
02:05I was working on that boat this morning and the struts were fine.
02:09Dad's not capable of hurting anyone.
02:11But the police spoke to both of us earlier.
02:13There's something I didn't tell them.
02:16Dad got a letter from the parish council that really upset him.
02:19There's a compulsory purchase order for the boatyard.
02:22We're being forced out of our own business.
02:24No wonder he was so angry.
02:28You don't think he's involved, do you?
02:32No.
02:34No.
02:34Of course not.
02:36There must be information about the application online.
02:38I already searched it.
02:39The applicant is Kit Harcourt.
02:42But the rest is confidential.
02:44So?
02:45There are some unofficial channels that may be able to help us get to the bottom of it.
02:53Mrs. Potts, look where we turned up this morning.
02:55Yes.
02:57It's marvellous, isn't it?
02:58And such a rare find.
03:00You know, we once uncovered a huge cache of coins directly beneath the Warlord's body in a similar dig in
03:06Norfolk.
03:06I remember reading about it.
03:08Really?
03:08I'd love to hear how you found it.
03:10When you have a moment.
03:12Right.
03:12I'd be delighted.
03:14Oh.
03:15Excuse me.
03:16Sorry, I have to take this.
03:18I do hope you'll be returning forthwith.
03:20Well, not quite yet, I'm afraid.
03:22My duties as civilian advisor have to come first.
03:25And so far it's all a bit of a muddle.
03:28Perhaps you and Mrs. Eddingham can help.
03:32You mentioned the parish council earlier.
03:35Are both of you members?
03:37Or just me.
03:37I'm a non-elected member.
03:39Mainly on the admin side.
03:40So you have access to documents?
03:43What's all this about, Mrs. Hawks?
03:45Well, we're looking for information, specifically a compulsory purchase order with this case number.
03:52Might you consider doing a little discreet investigation on my behalf?
03:59Excuse me.
04:01We're looking for Greg Cooper.
04:02Not sure how much sense you'll get out of him.
04:07Right.
04:09Thanks.
04:11Greg Cooper?
04:13I'm arresting you on suspicion of the murder of Kit Harcourt.
04:16I don't know what you're on about.
04:19Get him cuffed.
04:21Come on.
04:22Get your hands off.
04:23I didn't even know he's dead, so I can't have done it.
04:25Make a statement at the station, Mr. Cooper.
04:27But I'm innocent.
04:28Yeah?
04:28I'll show you this for nothing.
04:29Kit Harcourt deserved everything he got.
04:31All right, mate.
04:31It's enough of that.
04:32Come on.
04:33Let's go.
04:34Wait.
04:39Hey.
04:40They've just arrested Greg Cooper for murder.
04:44They've got nothing on us.
04:46So far, so good.
04:49I'm so sorry the police were involved, Jackie.
04:52We really didn't want that.
04:53It's not your fault.
04:54You do know his car's still here.
04:55Which is partly why I'm ringing.
04:57James is worried he left it unlocked.
04:59Thinks he might have left his mobile in the glove box?
05:00I'll check for you.
05:02Thanks, Jackie.
05:04The car is open.
05:08But the mobile's not in the glove box.
05:10What about the boot?
05:20No.
05:21Nothing here.
05:22Sorry.
05:46There's a compulsory purchase order for the boatyard.
05:48The applicant is Kit Harcourt.
05:51There was something I couldn't get out of my head.
05:53The possibility that the theft and the murder were connected somehow.
05:59Kit said he needed photographs of members' younger selves.
06:02I suspect he obtained it under false pretenses.
06:36Mrs. Parts, can I help?
06:38Oh, I do hope so, Mrs. Wickham.
06:40I believe you're in charge of the club kit.
06:44This is the kit room.
06:45My little kingdom.
06:48How can I help?
06:49I saw two of your members on the river this morning.
06:51Both of them were wearing red sailing club jackets.
06:55But the jacket caught on the drone footage was blue.
06:58I just wondered if you could explain the significance.
07:01Blue jackets are worn by senior committee members only.
07:04Red jackets by ordinary members.
07:06And when Harry Tynum left the club, did he return his jacket?
07:11I'm not sure, but I can check for you.
07:15Is there anything else in the kit that distinguishes rank?
07:19Yes, the club caps.
07:22Let me show you.
07:27This is my husband's.
07:29As Commodore, his cap has three stripes.
07:32And the rear Commodore, Greg Cooper.
07:35Now, his has one stripe.
07:37I'll show you.
07:43Oh, that's odd.
07:45Greg normally leaves all his kit at the club.
08:01Judith said she'd meet us here.
08:04Just had a horrible thought.
08:05The guy Hoskins is coming back.
08:08Well, then we're finished too.
08:10Tanika's the one that appointed us.
08:11Oh, God.
08:12I hadn't considered that.
08:14Thank you for meeting me here.
08:16My source will be joining us shortly.
08:19Well, come on, smell the beans!
08:20Well, what did you find out?
08:21It turns out that only senior committee members get to wear blue sailing jackets,
08:25which narrows down our potential suspects.
08:28All the current members have alibis except Greg Cooper.
08:32However, Harry Tynum used to have a blue jacket and may have kept it.
08:36So that just leaves Greg and Harry in the frame?
08:38Well, or our mystery thief.
08:40Psst, Mrs. Pauls.
08:44Took some finding.
08:46Locked away in quite the wrong place.
08:49But as parish council admin officer, I have all the keys.
08:53You can see from these plans that Kit Harcourt's house sits above the boatyard site.
08:59But he wanted river frontage.
09:01Marlowe's holy grain.
09:03And Harry Tynum refused his every offer.
09:05So what happened?
09:06Out of nowhere, the boatyard was issued an urgent, dangerous structure notice.
09:12And the council granted a compulsory purchase order with immediate effect.
09:19But there's nothing wrong with that building.
09:20Who reported it to the council?
09:22Our chair, James Wickham.
09:25So there we have it.
09:27Kit Harcourt got what he wanted, Harry's land, with the help of James Wickham,
09:33who was then nearly killed in the dangerous structure.
09:36There's something really off here.
09:39It's now clear that Harry Tynum is being forced from the boatyard he loved by Kit Harcourt and James Wickham.
09:47Giving a motive to kill both Kit and James.
09:50We just had it confirmed that one of the boat struts had been deliberately sawn through.
09:54I knew it wasn't an accident.
09:55Harry Tynum knew that James Wickham was coming to inspect that boat.
09:58Sounds like he set the whole thing up.
10:01I know this looks bad for Harry, but I just don't believe it.
10:06We can't ignore the evidence.
10:08Bring him in.
10:09Sarge.
10:19I have no idea where Dad is.
10:21He never came into work, and he's not at home.
10:23So I can't help you.
10:24There's been a development, Miss Tynum.
10:26Forensics have confirmed that one of the boat struts was deliberately tampered with.
10:30That had nothing to do with Dad.
10:31One hundred percent.
10:32We still need to speak to him.
10:34So if he does get in contact, get him to call us immediately.
10:54We have to talk.
10:56No.
10:57You can't wait.
10:59I need to speak to you.
11:00Now.
11:03Do I have to do this again?
11:05We had a fight.
11:06I walked away.
11:08End of story.
11:10Why were you so angry?
11:14Vice Commodore was always going to be mine, no question.
11:18Then Kit decided he wanted it for himself.
11:20Lied and cheated to get his own way, and the Commodore fell for it hook, line and sinker.
11:25I felt betrayed.
11:27I felt betrayed.
11:27You said that Kit Harcourt's death was the best news you'd heard in years.
11:31Doesn't matter to kill me.
11:32Your DNA was found, close to the scene, on a bottle of naval gold.
11:36Or maybe I dropped it during the fight.
11:38And this was caught on camera at the end of the slipway.
11:41About the time Mr Harcourt was murdered.
11:43It was containing your phone, wallet and smart watch.
11:47That bag was in my locker.
11:49Well how did he get in the river?
11:50I have no idea.
11:52Just one more thing Mr Cooper.
11:54A blue saline jacket was worn by the person walking away from Mr Harcourt's dead body.
11:59We believe that jacket belongs to you.
12:02All of my kit was in my locker, along with the bag.
12:07Can't you see?
12:08Someone is trying to frame me.
12:18The airport motors have arrived. Operation Coliseum is a go.
12:22And that is what, exactly?
12:24Well no time to explain. Leave your bags inside. We've got work to do.
12:47Hi, it's Susie. Leave a message.
12:51I know who it is. Send in proof now.
13:04How on earth did you dig that hole on your own?
13:06I mean, covering it up was hard enough.
13:08Professor Gifford lent me some volunteers.
13:09Are you sure about this, Judith? Someone could get hurt.
13:12Well according to the Romans, it's all perfectly safe.
13:14It's how they trapped wild animals unharmed for their gains.
13:18Oh, hence Operation Coliseum.
13:21And whoever we catch could lead us to our killer.
13:25All we have to do now is wait.
13:29It's like being back at guide camp.
13:33I got kicked out the brownies for masterminding a rebellion.
13:38I've never really been a joiner.
13:40Well you joined us.
13:41Yeah, but you and Bex are rebels too, but you keep it under wraps.
13:45A rebellious vicar's wife. I'll take that.
13:51Got a new glow about you, Mrs P.
13:55Really? Susie's right.
13:56Coming out of retirement really suits you.
13:58And we're not the only ones who've noticed.
14:03Archaeology was always something I thought I'd return to when the time was right.
14:07So why now?
14:09My whole world's opened up recently.
14:12Partly thanks to you two.
14:13It's given me the courage to embrace new experiences rather than shy away from them.
14:22As Confucius once said, we have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we only have one.
14:32I'm going to live my second life to the full.
14:36Amen to that.
14:39We have a visitor.
14:50Susie?
14:52Susie?
15:18Susie?
15:19Susie?
15:19Susie?
15:21Susie?
15:22Susie?
15:24Susie?
15:24Susie?
15:25Susie?
15:25Susie?
15:25Susie?
15:25Susie?
15:26Susie?
15:26Susie?
15:31Susie?
15:36Susie?
15:40Come on!
15:46Tanika, I think we've found your thieves.
15:53It's many years since I've stayed up till dawn.
15:56It was all worth it, though.
15:57I'm just sorry our captive turned out to be Harry Tynum.
16:00Could he be our killer?
16:01I just checked my phone, and Jackie left me a message last night.
16:05I know who it is.
16:07Sending proof now.
16:10Whatever she was sending, I didn't get it.
16:12I've tried calling her, she ain't waking up.
16:14I've got to get over there.
16:15We're coming with you.
16:28Jackie?
16:31Jackie!
16:33Oh, no.
16:35Jax?
16:36It's okay.
16:38Can you hear us?
16:40Jax?
16:41She's breathing.
16:41Jax?
16:42Ambulance, please.
16:53Police haven't found her phone.
16:56If only I'd picked up her call.
16:57Well, this isn't your fault, Susie.
16:59I'm going to have to talk to Harry.
17:01You'll be devastated.
17:03At least this takes suspicion away from him.
17:05He was with us when it happened.
17:07He would never, ever, do anything that would put Jackie in danger.
17:11The police won't let you speak to him now.
17:13We all need some sleep.
17:16I suppose you're right.
17:17We'll see you in the station later.
17:26What is that?
17:27It looks like gobbledygook.
17:30Everything means something.
17:34Why didn't you tell us any of this before, Mr. Tynum?
17:39We had no money coming in.
17:41No prospect of any.
17:43Nobody wanted anything to do with me anymore.
17:47Thought I had nothing to lose.
17:50Well, Jackie's belief in me never wavered.
17:53Through all of the slander and the lies.
17:57And now, I've let it down so badly.
18:03I have to see her.
18:08We found a stash of outboard motors in your lock-up at the bounty.
18:13Along with a pair of oil-stained trainers.
18:18And this gold watch.
18:21Now, you told us that the robbery took place between 2 and 4 a.m.
18:25That's right.
18:26But your van was caught on camera near the sailing club at 5.31.
18:31So how do you explain that?
18:33We were unloading the motors from Harry's van when I realised they didn't have my sweatshirt.
18:37It's got the bounty logo on it.
18:40I knew it could identify me, so I went back.
18:43The sweatshirt was on the floor of the boat store.
18:45That's when I must have trod in the oil.
18:47How about the watch?
18:49As I walked down the path, I saw this beautiful old watch just lying there.
18:54So I took it.
18:56We believed that the killer was there at the same time.
18:59If there were, I didn't see him.
19:01Or the body, swear to God.
19:03Why should we believe anything you're saying, Mr Hawkins?
19:06Because everything I've told you is true.
19:09All I wanted was to try and stop the bounty from going under.
19:13But no one cares about that.
19:17Forensics have found traces of ether around her mouth.
19:20Jackie Tynum was unconscious pre-exposure to carbon monoxide.
19:24It's confirmed we're looking at attempted murder.
19:26First James Wickham and now Jackie.
19:29Both attempts unsuccessful.
19:31Poor Jackie.
19:31Have you found her phone?
19:33No.
19:33Digital.
19:34We're trying to access a cloud, but there's no guarantee that it's been backed up.
19:37There is something that might help.
19:40I found this on the computer screen in the office of the boatyard.
19:47Oh, looks like the text my mate sends his missus after we've had a few.
19:51I'm inclined to think more like the ancient Egyptians.
19:54They used substitution and concealment techniques to disguise communications.
20:02I can't hang him around here doing nothing.
20:04I've got to try and find Jackie's phone.
20:07Any news on the watch?
20:09Ted Hawkins admits to stealing it from the scene, but I'm struggling to identify its owner.
20:13And there's no serial number on the watch, which makes it harder to trace.
20:16I know someone who might be able to help.
20:23Oh, Susie.
20:24I was hoping to meet somebody from the investigation.
20:27How's poor Jackie?
20:28Such awful news about her accident.
20:30It might be a bit more sinister than that, Ursula.
20:33Sinister?
20:33Jackie sent me a message saying she knew who Kit's killer was, and she was sending me something
20:37to prove it, but he never arrived.
20:39That's dreadful.
20:41On my way to the boatyard now, it's the last place that Jackie's phone was used.
20:44I don't know.
20:45Maybe the police missed something.
20:47Come on, girl.
20:48Come on.
20:49With me.
20:55Who exactly are we going to see?
20:57William Locke, a private watch specialist.
21:00He used to serve as the Bishop's Collection.
21:03We can bring the watch in if it helps.
21:05No need.
21:06I believe I recognise it.
21:09One moment, please.
21:15As I thought, I've serviced this watch regularly for many years.
21:20For whom?
21:21The old club commodore, Michael Liddington.
21:24Ursula's husband.
21:36Right.
21:37I'm going to find that phone.
21:39No.
21:42Um.
21:44It's her.
21:46Hey.
21:55Oh.
22:13My dog.
22:14My dog.
22:16She was just here.
22:19Did you see anyone?
22:20No.
22:21I'll check with my colleague.
22:22Luna!
22:25The watch belonged to Michael Liddington.
22:27But it hasn't been serviced since he died.
22:29Which is seven years ago.
22:31Who owned it after that?
22:32The advanced lab have finally got a result on the DNA from the watch link.
22:35It's a match for someone on the police database.
22:39A Darren Benson from Balaam, London.
22:41Wanted for fraud.
22:43Reported missing in 1996.
22:45No record of his existence since then.
22:47What was Darren Benson doing at the crime scene?
22:49And why was he wearing Michael Liddington's watch?
22:51Luna's gone.
22:52I left there for two minutes.
22:54And all I found was her collar in her leg.
22:56You would think it was the dog in her head.
22:57Maybe she just slipped her collar and she ran home.
22:59We'll make sure our mobile units are aware.
23:02I've got to go home.
23:03We'll see if Luna's there.
23:04I'm sure everything will be fine.
23:06You call us when you get there.
23:07Let us know if you find her.
23:11Luna!
23:15Luna!
23:26If you want to see your dog alive, come to Gordas Creek with a grand in cash.
23:31Look for a yellow van.
23:32Leave your phone.
23:34Tell no one.
23:35I've tried all the models I know.
23:38A cross-stick, the Caesar shift, a Bertie's disc, even the Visionaire square.
23:44But Jackie's code contains punctuation, which is most irregular.
23:49Bex!
23:50So sorry to intrude, Ursula.
23:52But the watch link found at the crime scene has finally been matched to the watch itself.
23:56Mr. Locke says it belonged to your late husband.
23:58Michael left that watch to James in his will.
24:01Did he mention breaking the strap?
24:03Why would he? I saw him wearing it today.
24:06James works from the stable block.
24:08You could ask him yourself.
24:18Finally!
24:19You are an extremely hard person to get hold of, D.S. Malick.
24:22Sorry, but I knew what was coming.
24:24I wanted to solve the case before that happened and go out on a high.
24:28Go out? I don't understand.
24:30Well, with D.O. Hoskins coming back.
24:31But he's not.
24:32That's why I wanted to see you.
24:35We'd like you to replace him.
24:36On a permanent basis.
24:40Sorry to interrupt.
24:42It's just Digital managed to access Jackie's cloud.
24:45The last image she took was of a blue cat with one stripe.
24:50Sailing club confirmed.
24:52It belonged to Greg Cooper.
24:56What does James use this place for?
24:58Sailing club business, mainly.
25:00He retired from finance many years ago.
25:04He normally tells me if he's popping out.
25:07Sorry to waste your time.
25:09Distractor.
25:12Such beautiful roses, Ursula.
25:14What are they?
25:15Damascus.
25:16My absolute favourite.
25:17They have the most wonderful fragrance.
25:29Such a lovely property.
25:37You are lucky, Ursula.
25:38Yes, I know.
25:38Excuse me.
25:40Mrs. Potts?
25:41What on earth do you think...
25:44I thought you said James had retired.
26:00Leave the van.
26:01We'll cop the river.
26:02Head for the elbow by the swallow's reach.
26:12Nothing.
26:16This is locked.
26:18Oh, try this.
26:39Slim boys.
26:40We're a watch dealer in Henley.
26:43From the same day as the murder?
26:45It's the same model.
26:46Just why Ursula believed he was still wearing it.
26:49Why has he got this?
26:51There's no James Wickham here.
26:54But there is a Darren Benson.
26:56Darren Benson.
26:57The missing fraudster whose DNA was found on the watch link.
27:01He looks familiar.
27:16Judith, we need to call Tanika.
27:19Everyone can touch time nowadays.
27:21But you have to start with your hands above the home key.
27:26What are you talking about?
27:27Jackie was confused, losing consciousness.
27:30Desperate to tell us something, but she hadn't realised that her hands were one key out.
27:34So she wrote this.
27:40Whereas if the hands were above the home key, where she thought they were, she'd have written this.
28:00She'd have written this.
28:02Any sign of him?
28:04No.
28:05I don't know.
28:06I don't know.
28:07I don't know.
28:30You gotta tell her your money back.
28:31I promise you.
28:36Still no answer from Susie.
28:37I'm getting really worried.
28:38Well she said she was going home.
28:40Let's try a there.
28:54I'm coming, girl.
28:59It doesn't look like anyone's home.
29:01Susie has a spare key.
29:08Her phone's here.
29:10It's a ransom demand, telling her to go to Gordon's Creek.
29:13But we'll be way behind her now.
29:16Luna's collar is linked to a tracking app.
29:18I saw Susie put it in her bag at the station.
29:20Which means we'll be able to track where Susie is right now.
29:25Okay.
29:27She's on the towpath just past Hedzer.
29:29We'll take this.
29:31I'm hoping we might need it.
29:39I'm here, girl.
29:41There's Susie's one.
29:42And there's the yellow one.
29:54Look.
29:59She's heading for an old boat by Swallow's Reach.
30:02According to the app, she's already there.
30:05Come on.
30:09Oh, Luna.
30:12Luna.
30:12Good girl.
30:13It's okay.
30:14I'm here now.
30:16It's so good.
30:17It's so good.
30:19It's so good.
30:22What?
30:23Hello?
30:25Hello?
30:34It...
30:35It's stopped moving.
30:37She's there.
30:39Oh...
30:39Tanika?
30:40Susie's on a boat.
30:41By Swallow's Reach.
30:42Come quickly.
30:43Something's wrong.
30:44They're ten minutes away.
30:45Is it just me, or is that boat sinking?
30:50Help!
30:52They've got me somewhere.
30:55They're all sealed.
31:00I don't know what to do.
31:06He's heading this way.
31:07What do we do?
31:08Come on.
31:15Take this.
31:16And pull.
31:36It's over, Mr. Wickham.
31:37You're not going anywhere.
31:39It's okay.
31:41Please.
31:43It's okay.
31:44I'm for much longer now.
31:46I'm not going anywhere.
31:50I'm in here.
31:51Help!
31:52Please.
31:53You okay, Luna?
31:54Yeah?
31:55Yeah?
31:57Hang tight.
31:58We're going to get you out.
32:00Oh, Luna.
32:03Look at you relaxing.
32:06Oh, Luna.
32:06Oh, Luna.
32:07Oh, Luna.
32:07Are you all right?
32:10Susie and Luna are safe.
32:12Thank goodness.
32:13The police are on their way.
32:15You've led us quite a merry dance, haven't you, Mr. Wickham?
32:19Or, should I say, Mr. Benz?
32:23That is you, isn't it?
32:27How did you find out?
32:28I went to Kit's house, convinced I'd find something useful.
32:31And I did.
32:33A club committee photograph from over 20 years ago.
32:36But it wasn't until we discovered your secret office that we realized why it was significant.
32:43How did Kit make the connection between you and Darren Benson?
32:51Kit worked for the same Citibank as I did.
32:54Long after me, of course.
32:55One of the traders I worked with died last year, and his obituary showed our old teen photograph.
33:00Kit thought he recognized me.
33:03But he had to be sure.
33:04And then he confronted you with what he found out.
33:07I went down for an early morning sale, and Kit was already there.
33:10Beautiful morning.
33:13Isn't it?
33:14Darren.
33:15Who was Darren Benson?
33:17Why did you need to make him disappear?
33:20Darren was a boy from nowhere.
33:23With nothing.
33:25Who always felt he deserved more.
33:27You thought you deserved more.
33:31So what did you do?
33:34I charmed my way from the post room to the trading floor with great success.
33:38Then I got greedy.
33:40I started chasing increasingly high-risk deals, not all of them.
33:44Strictly legal.
33:45People started to ask difficult questions.
33:48So you decided to cut and run?
33:50The fraud I almost bought off would have sent me down for years, so I said goodbye to Darren.
33:56And reinvented myself as James Wickham.
33:58Which you did quite brilliantly.
34:01Joining the sailing club was the perfect way of infiltrating Marlowe's society.
34:06And Michael Liddington's patronage made you entirely credible.
34:11You see, you make it all sound so cynical.
34:13But the truth is, for the first time in my life, I was happy.
34:16I found a caring family in Michael and Ursula.
34:19Something I'd never known.
34:21And then I met Hayley, a woman who I loved, and who loved me back.
34:26I was exactly where I always wanted to be.
34:28Until Kit found the photograph and started questioning your story.
34:32He discovered I'd been using my position as club commodore to defraud them of a great deal of money.
34:37Kit could have ruined everything.
34:39And you couldn't let that happen?
34:41He said he'd be willing to stay silent if I overturned the objection to his planning application with the parish
34:46council.
34:47And resigned as commodore.
34:49And if you didn't?
34:51He'd go to the police.
34:54I had seven days.
34:57And then came the storm one.
34:59You knew only he would risk sailing in those wings.
35:03I went to Greg's locker.
35:05I picked up his sailing bag.
35:07I put on his jacket and his cap to disguise my identity.
35:10I found Kit on the slipway.
35:12He was struggling to control the boom I offered to help him.
35:15Yeah, he's in perfect.
35:24You killed Kit, set Greg up as his murderer, and then did the same thing to Harry Tynan.
35:30It was a very high-risk strategy, staging the accident at the boatyard.
35:34Well, you see, gamblers always think they can beat the odds.
35:40And turning on the spotlight on Harry seemed the best way to create further confusion with suspicion away from me.
35:46Jackie told me they wouldn't be back until 3 p.m.
35:49The door was open, so I went in.
35:51I took a saw at one of the struts.
35:54Just enough damage to make it unstable.
35:56I knew that it would only take a small kick for the strut to give away.
36:01And that might have been that.
36:04But Jackie was on to you.
36:06Hayley asked me to see if you'd left your mobile in the car.
36:10It wasn't there.
36:12But this was.
36:13It wasn't Greg I saw from the train, was it?
36:16It was you.
36:17Jackie worked out that I staged the accident.
36:20She insisted that I get Harry reinstated at the club.
36:23And tell Hayley the truth before she did.
36:26But rather than let that happen, you decided to kill her instead.
36:29I didn't want to.
36:32I'm really very, very fond of Jackie.
36:36But I'd have to see it through or I'd lose everything.
36:40I knew the ether wouldn't last long, so I had to act quickly.
36:45The generator fumes should have killed her.
36:48I thought I'd covered everything.
36:49And then I overheard your friend talking to Ursula at the sailing club.
36:53She knew that Jackie's phone held an important clue, but I couldn't unlock it.
36:57And she was right.
36:59Jackie had photographed Greg's cap in your car as evidence.
37:03You knew Susie was going back to the boatyard, so you followed her.
37:06You had to stop her talking before it was too late.
37:09And I nearly succeeded.
37:11You sound almost proud.
37:12No.
37:14Not at all.
37:15You've hurt a great many people, Darren.
37:18No one forced you to lie, to murder.
37:21And if you're looking for sympathy, you're wasting your time.
37:25Issa has told me everything.
37:27Hayley, darling.
37:28How could you do that to her?
37:31She and Michael loved you like a son.
37:33I'd have made everything right.
37:35You have to believe me.
37:36You can't make any of that right.
37:39Ever.
38:16I just heard that Jackie's going to make a full recovery.
38:19Yeah, so we're off to the pub to celebrate.
38:21Do you know what the time is?
38:22Not that kind of celebration, Judith.
38:24Lynn's laying on breakfast for everyone.
38:27Mrs. Potts, bread's a gift that keeps on giving.
38:29We found a substantial hoard of Anglo-Saxon coins, gold as well as silver.
38:34And a not insignificant sum will be due to the landowner.
38:37So the bounty's legacy turns out to be valuable after all.
38:41Lynn must be over the moon.
38:43Nice one, Fred.
38:45It seems we all have a lot to celebrate.
38:49Raise your marks to honour Marlow's newly discovered warlord, to Fred.
38:54To Fred.
38:58Judith.
39:01It's thrilling, isn't it?
39:02Discovery of this magnitude.
39:04Oh, it certainly is.
39:06It's a coup for Marlow.
39:09We've found another potential burial site out near Cliveden.
39:14I was wondering if you'd care to accompany me on a speculative visit.
39:22I'd be delighted.
39:25Now, this is a tough one.
39:29Bacon or sausage.
39:31Do you know what?
39:31I'm going to have both.
39:34So you let Robin Hood go then?
39:35The Sailing Club decided not to press charges as long as all stolen goods were returned.
39:39They'll be doing community service too.
39:42Marlow isn't Marlow without the boatyard and the bounty.
39:49Just as we're all here, I just wanted to say congrats to the boss for getting SIO and putting Darren
39:55Benson on bars where he belongs.
40:00Well, it wouldn't have happened without every single one of you, even if it wasn't all entirely by the book.
40:07Which is exactly as it should be.
40:11Cheers.
40:12Cheers.
40:13Cheers.
40:14Cheers.
40:14Cheers.
40:15Cheers!
40:18Cheers!
