00:32Lord, I know the coming days are going to be hard for me.
00:36Yasmin, we've got two less for lunch.
00:38You give me the strength to face them.
00:41And Winston, well, Winston's not feeling...
00:44You're by my side.
00:45I still made as much green fig salad as usual.
00:48Always gets eaten.
00:49Oh, Sylvie sweetheart, I'm so sorry.
00:53We didn't disturb you, did we?
00:55No, just saying a quick prayer.
00:56Oh, please don't tell me you've got the whole church ready on your own.
01:00I don't mind. I enjoy it.
01:02Yeah, but I told him to be here to help.
01:16So, I think I know what you're going to say.
01:18Despite me specifically asking you...
01:21To arrive early and help Mrs. Godwin with the church.
01:24I'm sorry, I promise it will never happen again.
01:28It will.
01:28I mean, yes, it's very probable.
01:30So, are you going to make it to the service?

04:26so
05:08Good afternoon.
05:11We don't often see you here, on your own.
05:14Yeah, well, the commissioner's been encouraging me to put myself out more.
05:19And you've got to do what the big man says, right?
05:21So I thought I'd try my hand with the Domino's crowd.
05:24Good for you.
05:25I'll introduce you.
05:29It's a lot noisier than how they play back up.
05:32I mean, back there, it's more sedate.
05:35Less, um...
05:36Passionate.
05:37Exactly that.
05:38So off and away with the English.
05:43Everyone, this is Mervyn.
05:45He was looking to play.
05:49Oscar, maybe you could play with me.
05:52Sure.
05:53Yeah, nice to meet you, Oscar.
05:55Nice to meet you.
05:56Um, be gentle with me, yeah?
05:58It's been a while.
06:00Oh, Naomi, you're not working today.
06:03We are now, I'm afraid.
06:06Got an accidental death.
06:08Coroner's away at the moment, so we have to go and sign off on it.
06:11Mervyn's here.
06:12He was just about to play his first Domino's game on the island.
06:16There you go.
06:18What?
06:19Oh.
06:20That's it?
06:21Well.
06:23Okay, then.
06:25Nice one, mate.
06:26Yeah.
06:27We should, er, have a rematch sometime.
06:29You know, by the 12th or never.
06:31It's not over already.
06:33The man totally thrashed me.
06:35I was only gone a few moments.
06:37It's like a hurricane.
06:38I've never seen anything like it.
06:42DS Thomas, please tell me we've got a new case to deal with.
06:45Because that was genuinely humiliating.
06:47We have.
06:48By St Vincent's Church.
06:50Which is Seb's mother's church.
06:53He was the one that called it in.
06:58See you, Oscar.
07:01English.
07:05Victim's name is Sylvia Godwin.
07:06She was 85 years old.
07:08God bless her.
07:10I can't believe she's gone just like that.
07:12Did you know her well?
07:13Since I was a kid.
07:15She was like an auntie to me, you know?
07:18Sorry, mate.
07:20So, was she alone when it happened?
07:23She stayed behind after service to tidy up.
07:25Looks like she was dusting the cross and lost her footing and pulled it down with her.
07:30Poor woman.
07:31Paramedics reckon she banged her head when she landed.
07:34Caused an injury to the brain.
07:36And you found her body, Officer Rose?
07:39Mm-hmm.
07:40Me and my mama and Miss Seeley.
07:42She's the headmistress at the church paramed school down the road.
07:45Miss Godwin!
07:47Something isn't right.
07:49It's not adding up.
07:50This whole scene in front of it, it's just not adding up for me.
07:56It's her shoes.
07:57What's wrong with her shoes?
07:59There's nothing wrong with her shoes, per se.
08:01They're nice enough, sunny best shoes.
08:04Got a bit of a heel on them.
08:06About two inches, I reckon.
08:07The thing is, most people, if they're going to climb up on a chair to do some dusting and
08:13they're wearing heels, they're going to remove them beforehand to be more sure-footed, safety
08:18first and all that.
08:19And at 85 years old, I think Mrs. Godwin here will be even more likely to do that than anyone
08:26younger or more agile.
08:28So, what are you suggesting?
08:30That she didn't climb up on the chair?
08:34No, she didn't.
08:35And if she didn't climb up on the chair, she didn't fall from the chair.
08:39And if she didn't fall from the chair, she didn't bang her head from falling.
08:42And if she didn't bang her head from falling, then what did actually happen here?
08:47You think it's suspicious?
08:49I think we've been sold a lie.
08:50What?
08:51That's not possible.
08:52Why not?
08:53Because the church was all locked up from the inside, so nobody could get in our out.
09:01Show me.
09:02So, when we got here, we went to the back entrance.
09:06It's locked.
09:09Flip won't go in.
09:12The key's in on the other side.
09:14So, we came round to the front entrance.
09:17To the same situation.
09:19Let me see.
09:20There's a key in here too.
09:23So, I had to bust the door open.
09:28See?
09:29Whose key's that?
09:30Mrs. Godwin's.
09:31She usually locks the door and she's tidying up, so nobody bothers her.
09:35Show me the back door.
09:40Is this also the victim's key?
09:43No.
09:43That's from the hook over there, sir.
09:45I don't know how it got in this door.
09:47Could someone have been hiding in here while you were in there?
09:51No way.
09:52As soon as I found her, I saw my phone had no juice.
09:55I came straight in here and called the ambulance.
09:58I'm telling you, both doors were locked on the inside.
10:00If someone killed Mrs. Godwin and staged a crime scene, then how did they manage to get out?
10:12No, that just can't be.
10:14There is no reason anybody would want to do that to Sylvie.
10:18She's right.
10:18It's crazy you think it is suspicious.
10:21Well, can you tell us a little more about her?
10:23Did Mrs. Godwin have any family?
10:25Was she married?
10:26Was, but he passed away.
10:27When was it now?
10:28It was 2017.
10:30I officiated the funeral.
10:32I mean, you want to know about Sylvie's life?
10:34It was this church.
10:36This church was her family.
10:39That's the truth.
10:41She had been coming to St. Vincent since before I was born.
10:45She was christened here.
10:46She got married here.
10:48And she never missed a single Sunday service in all of her life.
10:53Pastor, I came straight over.
10:55Thank you for coming, Hector.
11:00I called Hector and told him the news.
11:03He was very close to Sylvie.
11:05She was his schoolteacher many years ago.
11:07Hector Mice.
11:11D.I. Wilson, D.S. Thomas.
11:16So, Mrs. Godwin was a teacher?
11:18St. Vincent Primary School.
11:20I took over from her as headmistress when she retired.
11:24And you kept in touch with her?
11:26Always.
11:27The things she did for me as a kid?
11:29Above and beyond, you know?
11:35In what way?
11:38She kept an eye on me.
11:40Because my parents didn't.
11:42Sylvie and Walter, her husband, they never had kids themselves.
11:46Hector meant the world to her.
11:48That's why this just can't be true.
11:50That woman had nothing but good in her.
11:57Well, if you think of anything, you let us know, yeah?
12:14You can go and rest your feet, ma'am.
12:16I'll clear all this up.
12:18You want me to make your herbal tea?
12:19After a day like today, all I want is for you to pour me a rum.
12:24A large one.
12:25All right.
12:26The Christmas rum coming out early this year.
12:29Seb, your inspector.
12:33Is he usually right about this kind of thing?
12:3699.9% of the time.
12:39So someone did murder Sylvie.
12:43But who?
12:44I don't know.
12:46But it couldn't have been anybody at the church, right?
12:49So maybe Sylvie had things going on in her life that we don't know about.
12:56But mum, I promise you, whatever it is, we'll figure it out.
13:01All right.
13:06I know this hasn't played out how we expected, but I had to do what I had to do.
13:12No, I'm not coming back yet.
13:14Not until I've got what I came for.
13:16No, I'm not coming back yet.
13:54Commissioner, you made me jump.
13:57Good morning, Inspector.
13:58Good morning.
13:59This arrived for me in the morning post.
14:05It's from your victim.
14:10Mrs. Godwin saw me on the local news covering the recent police initiative event.
14:16She said she could tell I wanted to put things right, and that's what she also needed to do, right
14:24or wrong.
14:26But she didn't say what that was?
14:27Only that whatever it was, was of a criminal nature and had something to do with St. Vincent's Church.
14:35There is a dark secret that has been buried for too long, and it's time the truth came out.
14:43It was posted on Saturday morning.
14:48And 24 hours later, she was dead.
14:54Well, this gets more interesting by the minute.
14:56How much is in Mrs. Godwin's bank account?
14:59$2,463,000.
15:04What?
15:05You sure about that?
15:06Like, seriously?
15:08Seriously.
15:09Well, new primary school head teachers earn so much.
15:12I requested statements that go further back.
15:14All I have is the last five years, and the money was already in the account.
15:18The victim's husband, Walter, is it?
15:20What did he do for a living?
15:21Mr. Walter Godwin.
15:23He was a caretaker at the same school that Mrs. Godwin worked at.
15:26I think that's where they first met.
15:28So, it's not only to be his money.
15:29Do we know anything about her family?
15:31Yeah.
15:32Mrs. Godwin told me once her parents were farmers.
15:34They definitely weren't rich.
15:36So, she didn't inherit it?
15:38Could the money have something to do with the crime she talks about in this letter?
15:41The one connected to St. Vincent's.
15:43Officer Rose, give your mum a call.
15:45See if it sparks a memory or something, yeah?
15:47Cool.
15:48But, all of this is a bit odd.
15:50Because it's nothing like Mrs. Godwin.
15:52I mean, $2 million?
15:54That's crazy.
15:56She wasn't that kind of person.
15:58Once we're done here, we're going to go and search Mrs. Godwin's house.
16:01Also, we've emailed everyone on the St. Vincent's weekly newsletter
16:05to see if any of the parishioners saw anything suspicious yesterday.
16:08Okay, thank you.
16:10Sir.
16:11That was the solicitor handling Sylvie Godwin's will.
16:15It seems Mrs. Godwin has left everything to Hector Moyse.
16:21Oh, so this guy's just become a millionaire?
16:25It appears so, sir.
16:27What do we know about him?
16:28He's a fisherman.
16:29He's a man, or was, but he hasn't worked for the last 18 months or so due to an injury
16:34out at sea.
16:36So, if he's had no income for almost two years, then $2 million is going to come in very handy.
16:48I don't know either.
16:49It's all like a craze right now.
16:51Mum, I'll speak to you later.
16:52I've got to go.
16:53I'll leave you to his inspector.
16:55No worries, Commissioner.
16:56Sir, I just got off the phone to my mother and she has no idea what Sylvie Godwin was talking
17:01about in that letter.
17:02Well, if anything else comes to mind, you'll let me know, yeah?
17:05All right.
17:07Where are they going?
17:08To interview Hector Moyse.
17:10He's a possible suspect now.
17:12Hector?
17:13A suspect?
17:14He's a good guy.
17:15He wouldn't kill anybody, let alone Sylvie Godwin.
17:18She was like a mother to him.
17:19Well, these are the questions we have to ask.
17:21It's what we do, without fear or favour, remember?
17:30That used to be my boat.
17:33There.
17:33I spent more time together, me and her, than anyone else.
17:38And then, some doctor you don't even know, writes a certificate saying, you can't do it no more.
17:47Well, how are your finances?
17:49Now you're not working.
17:50I'm struggling.
17:51All right.
17:52No one wants to employ a guy who only knows how to do one thing in his life.
17:57Yeah, but that will change us now, doesn't it?
18:00Excuse me?
18:01What?
18:01Mr Moyse, you inherit the bulk of Sylvie Godwin's estate, and don't tell us you didn't know.
18:07Her solicitor told us Mrs Godwin informed you when she made the will a few years back.
18:11Yeah, I knew.
18:12But she got hardly nothing, just her house, which is a few tens of thousands.
18:17You think I'd kill for that?
18:18You're telling us she didn't let you know what was in her will?
18:20No.
18:22Why?
18:24It's more than just her house.
18:262.4 million dollars more.
18:30I'm sorry, what?
18:33Is this a joke?
18:34Funny how things turn out, eh?
18:36Yeah.
18:36I didn't know she had that kind of money.
18:38I swear to you, she never mentioned a word to me about it.
18:41Look, I get it.
18:43I get how it looks to you.
18:45I need money.
18:45Badly, I'm desperate.
18:46But I had no idea Sylvie was loaded like that.
18:52So why would I kill her?
18:59Sarge, found some kind of time machine.
19:02In Mrs Godwin's office.
19:05Oh, it's a computer.
19:08Have you done those yet?
19:10No, not yet.
19:10Okay, you do that and I'll do this.
19:12Cool.
19:18Well, it seems to be working.
19:21So, I noticed your dad wasn't around yesterday.
19:24If you don't mind me asking, is he...
19:27Yeah, he, um...
19:29He passed away.
19:31I'm so sorry.
19:33How old were you?
19:36Eleven.
19:37That's so young.
19:39You must have been hard.
19:42Really hard, you know?
19:44Yeah.
19:45My first lesson in pain.
19:48But seeing my mother rise up every morning after that,
19:53that showed me what true love looks like, you know?
19:57Made us closer.
19:58A team.
19:59You can tell.
20:11The Belchard diptyk?
20:13You know what a diptyk is?
20:15Yeah.
20:16It's, um, used to measure oil in the car.
20:18You know, you dip it in, take it out.
20:20I said diptyk.
20:21You're trying to say dipstick, right?
20:24Diptyk.
20:25The painting or carving on two panels usually hinge like a book.
20:29Oh, you mean diptyk.
20:31Yeah, man.
20:32I know about diptyk and them things.
20:33Yeah.
20:34Well, apparently this Belchard diptyk is rare.
20:37Priceless kind of rare.
20:39Yeah?
20:41Why was Sylvie interested in this?
20:46Let's check her search history.
20:52Why, watch her.
20:54She searched the hell out of it.
20:57This was three days ago.
20:58Friday, the day before she posted that letter to the commissioner.
21:07The Belchard diptyk is a rare French panel painting from the Middle Ages.
21:11Each panel measures 50 by 30 centimetres.
21:15Rare?
21:15So it's worth some coinage?
21:17It's worth major coinage.
21:19If anybody could find it, it went missing from France during the Second World War.
21:23And here it is.
21:24It's believed the diptyk was taken from a museum in Paris by a young German soldier called Joseph Krauss.
21:31They reckon he brought that same painting over here to the Caribbean.
21:35When the Vichy government sent a new governor to Martigny, Krauss and a couple of other German soldiers accompanied him.
21:42And what happened to it when he came here?
21:45Boy, I don't know.
21:47But Joseph Krauss, he fled the region when the war finished and the painting never resurfaced.
21:52And some historians believe that Krauss hid the Belchard diptych on one of the smaller neighbouring islands, like St. Marie.
22:01Right, so our victim was looking into this Belchard diptych and the next day sent a letter to the commissioner
22:09saying she wanted to put right a wrong that took place many years before at St. Vincent's Church.
22:13And 24 hours later, Sylvie was murdered in the church with both doors locked from the inside.
22:20She also had over $2 million in her bank account and we've no idea how she got that money.
22:26But if she came into possession of this painting, then maybe that could explain why she ended up so rich.
22:35Okay, let's keep digging, yeah?
22:38And DS Thomas, get in touch with the commissioner.
22:40Because if there's any truth in it, this could be a big deal.
22:56Everything all right?
23:01It's just like, first Hector, then Mrs. Godwin.
23:06It's all, it's all a bit much right now.
23:11Sylvie was all about doing the right thing.
23:14You should have said so.
23:16No, because it's like you said, right?
23:17Without fear or favour.
23:19So it's not right me defending her, is it?
23:22Even if I know it's the truth.
23:25Seb, if this case is too close to home, it's okay to take a step back.
23:30No, it's cool, Sarge, it's cool.
23:31I really want to help get to the bottom of this.
23:34For Sylvie.
23:36Yeah, sure?
23:37Yeah, good.
23:38All right, then I'll see you tomorrow morning, yeah?
23:41All right.
23:42Take care of yourself.
23:48All right, thanks for letting me know, Mrs. Martin.
23:50You have yourself a good evening.
23:55Sir, that was one of the parishioners from St. Vincent's.
23:59Received the email we sent out asking if anyone saw anything suspicious yesterday.
24:04Mm-hmm.
24:04Says she saw a woman outside the church yesterday morning, parked up in a hire car.
24:09Never seen her at St. Vincent's before.
24:11Description?
24:12It was a silver vehicle with logos for Kariba car hire.
24:16The woman looked in her 50s with shoulder-length blonde hair.
24:21Not much of a tan, apparently.
24:23So, with the hire car, maybe not a local?
24:27Yeah, it's me again.
24:28So, who is she?
24:30I'm telling you, the police haven't found it yet.
24:32I watched two officers leaving her house, both of them carrying evidence, and they didn't have it with them.
24:38So, where's it got to?
24:39I know a little of the history of the Belshow diptyque, but how or why that connects to Sylvie Godwin,
24:47I don't know.
24:50But I shall ask her own.
24:53Evening all.
24:54Um, sorry I'm late.
24:56I had a prior arrangement with a bloke called Barry.
25:00Who, might I ask, is Barry?
25:03It's funny you should ask that.
25:04Well, Barry is a retired expat who's returning to the UK to be with his grandchildren.
25:09So, he's selling off a bunch of stuff online.
25:11So, I got myself this beauty.
25:14And what is that, sir?
25:16This is the answer to Catherine's prayers.
25:19Not that she knows yet.
25:20What is the answer to my prayers?
25:22Oh, Catherine, well, it's the one thing that's missing from your place.
25:36Oh.
25:38It's a dartboard.
25:39I can see that.
25:41You see, the thing is, Domino's is all well and good, but for a boozer to be a proper boozer...
25:45Pardon, but this is not a boozer.
25:48A pub.
25:49Or a pub.
25:50But whatever this establishment wants to call itself, with this on your wall, it can only enhance the communal vibe.
25:58No, we're not an English-themed sports bar.
26:01It's not going up.
26:04Yeah, but Catherine...
26:04I said no.
26:05Just imagine...
26:06Mervyn, my final word, no.
26:10No.
26:21It seems you are now the proud owner of your very own dartboard.
26:37I'll have it much to me right now in the moment, you know?
26:40I know it is, my love.
26:41I know.
26:46Oh.
26:46Whoa, Mum, what's this?
26:48Oh.
26:49What?
26:49Huh?
26:50Seb, sweetheart, this isn't...
26:53Seb, you weren't supposed to...
26:55Good evening, Sebastian.
26:57You all right?
26:59Me?
26:59Are you all right?
27:00What's this?
27:01Huh?
27:01What's going on?
27:02Because it look like...
27:03Are you...
27:04I... I guess you could say we've been getting close, the two of us.
27:09Right. Since when?
27:11Well, um, since... I suppose...
27:15Since, um...
27:17What would you say, Lorette? How long's it been?
27:19I suppose we could say it's been a year.
27:24A year?
27:25A year, Ma, and you never once thought to mention it to me.
27:29Hector, I'm so sorry. Could you give us a moment, please?
27:33Actually, I need to be getting home anyway, sir.
27:37Sorry you had to find out like this, Sebastian.
27:40I should have... We should have too.
27:46Sorry.
27:58I wanted to tell you, but I... I was too scared.
28:02Of how I'd react.
28:04No.
28:05So then what?
28:08See?
28:09It is because of that.
28:10No, no, really. It's not that.
28:12A whole year, Ma.
28:14A whole year, you've been lying to me.
28:19You know, in the last 24 hours, it turns out, not one person is who I thought they were.
28:31But I never thought you would be one of them.
28:36I need some air.
29:04Good morning, Inspector.
29:07So, when was...
29:10What the...
29:10Oh, one second, sir.
29:14Good morning, Inspector.
29:16Sarge.
29:16Sarge.
29:17What's going on, sir?
29:18Well, I went on our walk last night and I ended up here.
29:22So I thought I'd come and start on the case.
29:25Can we...
29:25Oh, yes, sure, sorry, sorry.
29:28Yes, sorry, sorry.
29:30Oh, sorry.
29:31Oh, sorry.
29:32No, sir.
29:33Oh, sorry.
29:34Yes, yes, come on, yes.
29:35So, um, I'm just on the phone with Sylvie Godwin's bank manager.
29:39And interestingly, the 2.4 million in her account, she inherited it from her husband, Walter Godwin.
29:45The bank manager says she don't know where he got it from or how Walter got so rich.
29:49It was Walter's money.
29:51Yeah, and unfortunately, the liar who was handling Walter's will is no longer her own.
29:56So, that's all I got.
29:58Why is there a post-it with post-mortem exclamation mark written on it?
30:01Oh, the post-mortem just came in.
30:03It's here somewhere.
30:04Got it.
30:05Under the takeaway.
30:07I will clear that up for you as soon as possible, Sarge.
30:09Sorry about that.
30:10Why is there a pack of toilet roll on my desk?
30:12That's why I went for the walk in the first place.
30:15My new hostmate was like...
30:16Don't forget the toilet roll.
30:18Hey, Em says the victim became unconscious and died of hypoxia and reckoned she was hit
30:24with something with a sharp edge rather than banging her head on the floor.
30:29Sir, we're right.
30:30It was murder.
30:31What are all these printouts on the floor, sir?
30:33Oh, that's from Kariba Carhire.
30:36They sent the details of the woman who was seen outside St. Vincent Church the morning
30:40of the murder.
30:40Selina Bascombe, 54 years old, from the UK, Berkshire, arrived here Friday and is staying
30:48at the Golden Bay Hotel.
30:49Yeah, yeah, I think she's just a tourist.
30:51There's nothing interesting about her yet.
30:53Well, then you didn't look properly, Seb, because on her passport, she uses her maiden name.
31:00Godwin.
31:02As in Sylvie and Walter Godwin.
31:04How did I miss that, sir?
31:06We need to talk to her right away.
31:08So I can't fletcher.
31:11Yeah, sorry about that.
31:12Hello?
31:14Hello?
31:15Hello?
31:30Seb, this is cool.
31:32You're trying to move the case on, but your head is pinging around all over the place.
31:36It's close to chaos in there.
31:38I understand what it looks like, Sarge, but I've been up all night doing a lot of work
31:42and I feel like I'm very close to...
31:43You should go home, okay?
31:45Have a shower.
31:46Get yourself straight.
31:47But, Sarge, I need to finish...
31:49I know, I know, but you're not helping right now.
31:52We can't work like this.
31:57All right, Sarge.
31:58All well.
32:07Thanks for coming in, Miss Bascombe.
32:09Please, take a seat.
32:10Walter Godwin was my grandfather.
32:13He was stationed on St. Marie during the Second World War.
32:17When the war ended, he wrote to my grandmother, who was pregnant with my father at the time,
32:24saying that he wasn't coming home, that it was over between them.
32:29And he knew she was pregnant?
32:31Yes, except I don't think it was him who wrote that letter.
32:35I think it was someone else.
32:37Um, I found this on the St. Vincent's Church website.
32:42It's the day that Walter Godwin got married to Sylvie.
32:47Well, that's Sylvie.
32:49But that's not Walter Godwin.
32:52That's not my grandfather, see?
32:54That's not the same man.
33:01So, you realised that someone might have stolen your grandfather's identity?
33:07I know they did.
33:10And you came here to St. Marie to find out who this other Walter Godwin was?
33:15That's why you were at the church Sunday morning, to speak with Sylvie Godwin.
33:23Mrs. Godwin?
33:28So, how did she react when you suggested that the man who she'd been married to for 60-odd years
33:33may not be who she thought he was?
33:35She already knew.
33:38She said that she'd only just found out herself that week.
33:43How?
33:44Well, her plumber had found a box hidden under the floorboards when he was fixing a pipe.
33:50I'll find out which plumber.
33:52Sylvie said it had the true identity of her husband in it.
33:56All his personal documents.
33:58Making clear what happened to my grandfather.
34:02Which was what?
34:04She wouldn't tell me.
34:06She said that she wasn't ready yet and that she wanted to do it in her own time
34:11and in her own way, whatever that meant.
34:17I think it meant she wanted to go to the police first about it.
34:20Which must have frustrated you, coming all this way to be denied the truth.
34:25This is my family!
34:26You have no right to keep this to yourself!
34:29Sorry.
34:29I can't help you.
34:34And in that moment, caught up in it all, that's when you must have decided...
34:37No, I wouldn't, really.
34:40I wouldn't.
34:41I just left.
34:42I was angry, but I didn't want to hurt her.
34:45I just wanted to know what was in that box.
34:47And now she's dead and I don't know where it is.
35:00So, if Sylvie had this box she talked about, where is it?
35:05Because it wasn't at the crime scene and it wasn't at her house.
35:08And if someone did steal Walter Godwin's identity, who?
35:13And what happened to the real Walter Godwin?
35:14I just got off the phone with a plumber who was over at the victim's house last Friday.
35:19Said Sylvie looked haunted after she looked inside that box.
35:27About an hour later, she was getting inside a taxi saying she needed to go to St. Vincent's Primary School.
35:36She went to see Yasmin Seeley.
35:41OK, I'm going to lay it out, Miss Seeley.
35:45I believe it's you who has the missing box.
35:47Sylvie's.
35:49We could get a search warrant, or...
36:08It's a German passport.
36:12From the Second World War, it looks like.
36:14Belonged to...
36:15Joseph Krauss.
36:16It's believed the diptych was taken from a museum in Paris by a young German soldier called Joseph Krauss.
36:24The last visa stamp show he left Martinique at the end of the war and came to St. Marie.
36:32St. Marie Times, September 27th, 1945.
36:36It's a report about an unnamed British soldier getting into a fight with a group of German naval officers and
36:44left for dead near St. Vincent's Church.
36:47His body was never found.
36:48I believe that soldier was Walter Godwin, and I think Joseph Krauss came across his body.
36:56Joseph realized he could steal his identity if he could dispose of the body without it being found.
37:04A map of the St. Vincent's Churchyard, that must be where the real Walter Godwin was buried.
37:11He took Walter's uniform and papers and buried him there, in this grave, so no one would ever find it.
37:19From that moment on, Joseph Krauss was...
37:21Walter Godwin.
37:22I guess he softened his accent as much as he could, and by the time he and Sylvie met, about
37:2815 years later, and he seemed like the Englishman she thought he was.
37:32We need to get a forensic victim over from Guadalupe.
37:39I'm assuming Mr Krauss went to all these lengths because of this, the Belshaw diptych.
37:46I mean, if the authorities worked out he stole it and came looking for him, then with a new identity,
37:52they wouldn't find him.
37:53From what I know, he lived a simple life, working as a caretaker for this school.
37:58And when he and Sylvie met, everyone always said they truly loved each other.
38:05That was the day she retired, handed the baton over to me.
38:12Why have you got this box, Miss Sylvie?
38:16Sylvie brought it with her when she came here on Friday.
38:19I asked her if I could keep it so I could look into it some more, that's all.
38:22It's entirely innocent.
38:24Not if you didn't tell us about it, it isn't.
38:26Actually, that's suspicious.
38:28Why did you choose to keep it to yourself?
38:35This school is everything to me.
38:39And I can't risk his reputation being damaged.
38:43It's struggling enough as it is, financially.
38:47All we have to keep going is donations, people's goodwill.
38:50And if it ever got out that we had a caretaker working here that wasn't who we thought he was,
38:56was a Nazi soldier who covered up a murder.
39:02So you killed Miss Godwin to stop all this?
39:05No, no, no.
39:06I'm very sorry.
39:07I should have told you about it.
39:08I know, but I didn't kill her.
39:20So if Joseph Krauss sold the Belshazz diptych and had all that money, then why he never do nothing with
39:28it?
39:28Never spend it, nothing.
39:31Perhaps he kept it just in case.
39:32I mean, if the truth ever caught up with him, then he had the means to change his identity again.
39:40Afternoon, Sergeant Thomas.
39:44The trouble is, we're still no closer to working out who murdered Sylvie Godwin,
39:49and then managed to exit the building when both the front and back door were locked from the inside,
39:55with keys inside the lock.
39:59He's buried here.
40:02My grandfather.
40:04We believe so, yes.
40:22Officer Rose.
40:24Inspector.
40:26Hey.
40:27Um...
40:29Sorry, I'll just, uh, take on a moment, you know?
40:34I'll give you some space.
40:35No, no, no. No, you're all right.
40:37I was just coming in to see if I could make any more sense of it all.
40:41Me too, I guess.
40:43And?
40:45Not much.
40:48Usually, I find it levels me out.
40:53I can feel peace here.
40:57No, sorry I haven't been much use in this investigation. It's just been a lot for me, you know?
41:01I mean, look, we all have cases that, um, throw us off balance from time to time.
41:06And I've had more than my fair share, trust me.
41:09Right.
41:10See, when I'm thrown by a case, my brain just starts jumping around like some
41:20itchy-footed grasshopper, you know?
41:24Well, maybe that is your unique selling point.
41:28So, I'd say, embrace it.
41:32Own it. Don't let it own you.
41:35In fact, you know what? Let's try it. Let's try it right now, yeah?
41:40Oh.
41:41We visualise it. Only this time, you are taking the lead.
41:45OK, come on. Up you get. That's it.
41:50OK.
41:52This is the crime scene. The murder of Sylvie Godwin.
41:56That door, the front door, is locked from the inside. The key's in the door.
42:05Sylvie's body is here.
42:09This big wooden cross is on top of her.
42:13Now, come on. Just freestyle it, yeah? Just say whatever your brain wants to say.
42:19Um, I'm thinking about when I busted the door open.
42:25And I hurt mom, you know? When I got home, it was all bruised up.
42:28So, I drank some rum to numb the pain.
42:34Well, that also means it was definitely locked.
42:41OK, OK. What else?
42:43Well then, if you were the killer, you'd probably prefer to leave the scene at the back.
42:50Yeah, yeah. Keep going. Keep going.
42:51So that way you're less likely to be seen by others. So, um, maybe we're in the wrong room.
42:58The back room. Come on.
43:08So, what's she saying to you? This room, what's it telling you?
43:15Hmm. What?
43:18Collection box.
43:20It's just, usually, it sits right there under the shelf.
43:24Now it looks like it's been pulled out of the cupboard.
43:33There's a coin in it.
43:34Yeah, and that's odd because...
43:36Because Miss Godwin empties the collection box every Sunday after the service.
43:41Today's collection passed down.
43:43And she gives the money to my mom.
43:49So, this must have been put in there after she was murdered.
43:54Which means, well then, the killer must have put it there.
43:58That won't go in.
44:02The key's in on the other side.
44:07The key's in on the other side.
44:07PM says the victim became unconscious and reckoned she was hit by something with a sharp edge.
44:14Diptych. A painting or a caravan on two panels usually hinge like a book.
44:19Local art historians generally leave. It was brought to Saint Marie.
44:30Bingo.
44:32Have you solved the case?
44:34It was actually Officer Rose and his itchy footy grass upper brain that solved it.
44:39I did.
44:40That coin explains everything.
44:43Okay, let's move people.
44:44There's still some things we need to do, like get hold of a search warrant.
44:48And we need the luminol.
44:50Oh, and we need a tape measure.
44:52Why do we need a tape measure?
44:54To measure something.
45:03Way back in 1945, a young British soldier by the name of Walter Godwin was killed here on Saint Marie.
45:11His identity was stolen and his body was hidden in someone else's grave.
45:17Now, finally, thanks to Sylvie Godwin and the discovery of this box,
45:24that young man can get the proper burial he deserves.
45:29Which brings us to the crime in the present.
45:32Sylvie Godwin's murder at St Vincent's Church on Sunday.
45:35And although it occurred many years after Walter Godwin's murder,
45:40this little wooden box and its contents helped solve this murder as well.
45:45We know from the post-mortem that Sylvie was hit with a sharp object.
45:49This spray, luminol, it takes traces of blood.
45:52And this proves that there was blood on the box recently, as you can see here.
46:01Now, we have another time to carry out the relevant tests.
46:05But when our lab compares this blood with Sylvie's, I'm confident they'll match.
46:11And as this box has only been in one person's possession since the murder,
46:14it has led me to believe that Sylvie Godwin's killer was...
46:19Yasmin Seeley.
46:24What have you done?
46:27That's not true.
46:30Someone else must have taken it on them.
46:33Don't worry, Miss Seeley. We'll be coming to this in a minute.
46:38Throughout this case, we've worked on the assumption that Sylvie Godwin's husband,
46:43real name Joseph Krauss, had sold the painting he had stolen,
46:48which explains why he had so much money in his bank account.
46:52Well, it's half the truth.
46:54Because the unique defining thing about a diptych is that there are two halves to it.
47:00A diptych? A painting or a carving on two panels usually hinge like a book.
47:04And we now know that Joseph Krauss sold only one half of the Belshaw diptych,
47:12and he kept the other half.
47:21It wouldn't miss me.
47:24Now, we'll never fully know why Joseph separated the two panels.
47:29My sense is that he was someone who liked to hedge his bets,
47:32be prepared for all eventualities.
47:34I think that's partly why he never spent any of the money.
47:38Plus, having to explain to his wife-to-be how he came into such major coinage,
47:44would mean admitting to the theft of this famous piece of art and also being an imposter.
47:50So, Joseph held on to the money and the picture.
47:55So, where has it been the last 80-odd years or so?
47:59Hanging on the wall of the headmistress's office at the St. Vincent's Primary School,
48:05which is now your office, Miss Seeley.
48:13Joseph Krauss must have put it there during his years as caretaker.
48:17And no one ever thought anything of it.
48:20It's this faded religious icon hanging on the wall of a church school surrounded by other religious images.
48:28Earlier today, Miss Seeley, when we talked in your office.
48:32That was the day she retired.
48:34I saw that framed photo on the wall of Sylvie and Walter.
48:38And I happened to notice the outline of a larger rectangle around that frame,
48:43where the paint hadn't faded.
48:45Clearly, another picture had previously hung there for some time.
48:48I didn't think much of it at first.
48:51But I had it measured.
48:53And guess what?
48:54It was 50 centimeters by 30 centimeters.
48:59The exact same dimensions as one half of the Belshaw dipty.
49:03Each panel measures 50 by 30 centimeters.
49:07That's why Mrs. Godwin came to see you when she found the box,
49:11and realized what was hanging on her old office wall.
49:16We can't keep it.
49:18I gotta let the police know.
49:20But you didn't agree, did you?
49:23You told us your school was struggling for money.
49:26But we had a bit of a dig, and it's worse than that.
49:32You've not drawn a salary in the last six months to keep it going.
49:37You said yourself the place meant so much to you.
49:40And so the prospect of getting millions of dollars just landing in your lap,
49:46well, you just weren't willing to give that up.
49:50And so, after driving home to pick up food for Lorette's lunch gathering,
49:55you returned to the church to plead with Sylvie one more time.
49:59Please don't do it.
50:02That money, it could help the school so much.
50:05It could help me.
50:07But Sylvie wasn't for turning, was she?
50:08I'm desperate.
50:10As Officer Rose said, she always tried to do good in life,
50:13and she wasn't about to stop now.
50:16Sorry.
50:17So in that moment, desire for the money got the better of you,
50:21and you decided you were going to stop her.
50:23I assume Sylvie had that box with her in the church that day.
50:27And this box was your weapon of choice.
50:32And once she used it to kill her,
50:35you made it look like there'd been some tragic accident.
50:45How could you?
50:49Now, knowing that the front door of the church had already been locked by Mrs. Godwin,
50:54you made your escape via the rear, using the church's spare back door key
50:59that you took from the back room to lock the door from the outside,
51:04and placing this little coin in the lock.
51:15It's locked.
51:16So that when you returned with Officer Rose and Lorette...
51:20That won't go in.
51:21And with the little play acting,
51:22it would seem like the door was locked from the inside.
51:26The key's in on the other side.
51:28Then when Officer Rose and his mum headed round to the front,
51:31you lingered briefly and proceeded to open the door with the church's spare key,
51:36pushing this coin out in the process, and then inserting that key inside.
51:44All you had to do was find the moment to actually lock it.
51:49OK, thank you.
51:51Ambulance is honest with you.
51:54Seeing the coin on the floor, you picked it up.
51:59And without your bag or purse, you disposed of it in the collection box.
52:10And then actually locked the back door with the key.
52:16It was very clever of you, making it look like Sylvie was on her own in the church
52:21when she had that fatal fall.
52:23One might say devilishly so.
52:27But you see, Sylvie was so determined that the truth would come out,
52:31that even after her death, her desire to put right a decades old wrong, finally won out.
52:38This arrived for me in the morning post.
52:45Officer Rose, I think Mr. Rest has your name on it.
52:54Get up.
52:57He has my ceiling.
52:59I'm arresting you for the murder of Sylvie, Godwin.
53:02You don't need to see anything.
53:03Just to put me on your defensive ground, make sure you have questions to me.
53:07I'm sure it's around the cards.
53:12Excuse me, Sarge, I'll do a second.
53:19Mum.
53:28You all right?
53:30I can't believe what that woman's done.
53:34Poor Sylvie.
53:37And just for money?
53:40I'm sorry for getting it wrong.
53:43You haven't seen me at my best on this case.
53:46That's not what your inspector told me.
53:49He said it was because of you that it all got solved.
53:54Which is even more impressive considering you had other things to deal with.
53:59Like your mother keeping secrets.
54:02And honestly, Mum, I think it's helping.
54:04You moving on.
54:06I don't think you should be getting old and lonely.
54:09And just focusing on me and the church, you know.
54:12You deserve happiness too.
54:18You all right?
54:20Yes, I.
54:23So, you like him?
54:28Then I'm pleased for you.
54:30But you do know that all that money he inherited from the stolen painting,
54:35you won't be getting none of that, you know?
54:37I'm not after him for his money.
54:39Well, seriously though.
54:41I mean, he seems like a good guy.
54:44With him shiny head.
54:49See you Sunday.
54:51You won't be late this time.
54:54Try me best.
54:58Love you.
54:59Love you too.
55:12All right, that's the hockey.
55:15This is where you throw from.
55:17You get three throws each, and then it's the next player's turn.
55:21All right, let's get it started.
55:22Hey, game on.
55:25Round one.
55:30Shut you.
55:31I thought you were supposed to hit the board, Inspector.
55:34Yeah, yeah, I think there's something off with the flyer.
55:36It's all right, not to worry.
55:37We got this, sir.
55:43Sir, you are really bad at this.
55:46No, it's not me.
55:46Honestly, it's the dance.
55:48You know, you're giving up some real bad loser vibes right now.
55:50Maybe you should let the Commissioner take the last throw.
55:53It's not his turn yet.
55:55With respect.
55:56Now, if you just stop talking, then I can throw properly, all right?
56:07There you go.
56:11So, so, that's two points, is it?
56:21Just two points for our team?
56:24Wow.
56:25I'm just a bit rusty, that's all.
56:27You want to join our team, Commissioner?
56:29I mean, I don't think any of us are going to be as bad as that.
56:43All right.
56:45Well, come on then, Officer Rose.
56:46You reckon you can do better?
56:48Show us what you've got.
56:48Jump for joy.
56:51Clap your hands.
56:54Shout for joy.
56:57Shake your hands.
57:00Ladies and gentlemen, the Tempest Company, this is your 15-minute call.
57:03This was their final performance.
57:05It suddenly collapsed halfway through the second.
57:07The poison was in the bottle that our victim and the other two actors drank from on stage.
57:11But only Michael Farrah dies.
57:13Would you like to go for a drink with me?
57:14That's inappropriate, Mr. Goreman.
57:16A complaint has been made accusing you of unprofessional conduct.
57:20Still haven't heard from your brother?
57:22I think he's actually ignoring my calls.
57:24Then maybe you should go visit him in Antigua.
57:26Somebody's giving the inspector some hair.
57:47biggestかった one's everything.
57:51And finally you
57:54will be doing a good time now, but also. And then,
57:54you know, it's my neighbor's installation right now. And it's
57:55my neighbor. Who can find
57:55me? I'm probably
57:56going to be one of two groups of students. While my husband's
57:56working for you at a university where unreal. I'm only really
57:56everybody. All right. What year?
