00:06Something's been bothering me about these two couples.
00:09Phil and Caroline have sold their house, but didn't tell their neighbours.
00:13And now Kerry feels betrayed.
00:15We know Dean's taken out a series of loans at punitive interest rates.
00:19He's trying to persuade Kerry to sell.
00:21Maybe she doesn't know about the loans.
00:23Is he behind repayments?
00:24Tanika says not, but it suggests his business isn't going great to come.
00:29And he's refusing to talk to us.
00:31Well, this could be why Louis was in the close that day.
00:34Maybe he was sorting out another loan for Dean.
00:36Remember Tanika told us there'd been no communication between Dean and Louis' company.
00:40I'll tell you what else I don't get.
00:42One of those residents kills Louis Oldham, dumps his body in the middle of the close,
00:47and none of the others see a thing?
00:48Well, that's my point exactly.
00:50There's something going on between those two houses.
00:55Oh, Bex. We didn't tell you how much we enjoyed the art class last night.
01:00And Daniel... Daniel was very...
01:03Attentive?
01:04That's the word. Attentive.
01:06Is he single?
01:07Are you asking for yourself or a friend?
01:09Stop it. A pair of you. You are not even subtle. Not subtle at all.
01:13What are these?
01:15Last night I went hunting and found that cache of letters to my great aunt from a gentleman called Nathan
01:22Edwards.
01:23The man in the photo?
01:25I think he must be.
01:26And what are they? Love letters?
01:28They are.
01:29I knew it.
01:31He was an accountant. He lived just off the Henley Road.
01:34So why did your aunt hide his photo?
01:36That's really rather sad. He was already married when they met.
01:41He had an affair?
01:42Yes, and no, they never had a physical relationship, but they poured their thoughts and feelings into those letters.
01:49An emotional affair.
01:51This one isn't open.
01:53The handwriting's different. Someone else sent that one.
01:56Why didn't she open it?
01:58I'm not sure.
02:05Tanika, what have you got?
02:09We'll meet you there in ten minutes.
02:12No.
02:13Seriously?
02:14You found another body?
02:16Afraid so.
02:17Is there any connection to the death of Louis Oldham?
02:19It's too early to say. The body's been in the ground a long time.
02:21Well, how long?
02:22A forensic anthropologist thinks it could be more than ten years.
02:25Can I have a word?
02:26Of course.
02:28Don't worry. Bear with me.
02:29Okay, so he's male and probably a teenager, perhaps a little bit older.
02:35But there's been a central skull base fracture caused by blunt force trauma.
02:39This was the cause of death?
02:41I think so.
02:42Oh, and you'll also need a forensic archaeologist to come look at the site.
02:45Oh, of course.
02:46There will have been significant water erosion and soil settlement in the last decade.
02:50That's right.
02:51It's possible the body was originally buried in the garden beyond that fence,
02:56and then moved here in the intervening times.
02:59Whose garden is the other side of that fence?
03:02Kerry and Dean Butler's.
03:21Hi.
03:22You lot never give us a moment's peace. We've said all we have to say.
03:25You heard what they found?
03:26It's just not possible. I've no idea how he got there.
03:29He?
03:30How do you know the body is a man?
03:32That's what the police said.
03:33Is your husband home?
03:34Dean left for work ages ago. Just leave us alone.
03:41Well, that went well.
03:43We may as well try Grace.
03:45No, maybe it's for the ducks or something?
03:48Or a murder weapon.
03:49Quick.
03:54I can't see you.
03:56Oh, oh, oh.
03:58Officers.
03:59I wonder if we could come in.
04:00Ask you a few questions about Louis Oldham.
04:03No, I don't think so.
04:04But without proper grounds and a warrant.
04:06Is that you, Brixton?
04:07Oh, you know.
04:08Shh.
04:08Thanks.
04:09She's seen us.
04:11Oh, sorry.
04:15A witness reported seeing a man who matched your description.
04:18So, an object in the river yesterday?
04:20Was it in the afternoon?
04:20Between 1.30 and 2.30?
04:24Nothing to do with me.
04:25I was playing cricket.
04:27Mr. Wingrove, police dives are currently searching the area.
04:30Are you sure there's nothing you want to tell us?
04:33I left the house, went straight to cricket, played all afternoon, albeit not very well.
04:37Then came straight home and bumped into those women.
04:39The busybodies.
04:40How?
04:41Such a...
04:42We chatted for a while.
04:44Ask them if I look like someone who's just disposed of crucial evidence.
04:50Out of interest, who was the witness?
04:53Dean Butler?
04:54Thank you for your time, Mr. Wingrove.
05:03Eavesdroppers never hear any good about themselves.
05:06We were just...
05:22I wonder what Phil was throwing in the river.
05:24Assuming it was him.
05:26The murder weapon?
05:27Well, it could have been anything.
05:28But what's interesting is that someone flagged him up to the police.
05:32Carrie is super stressed.
05:34And is that because this second body is a surprise to her?
05:37Or because it isn't?
05:39If a body was found at the bottom of my garden, I'd probably react the same.
05:43What are you talking about?
05:45You've got hundreds of dead bodies at the bottom of your garden.
05:47Mm-hmm.
05:52One dead body over here.
05:54And one over here.
05:56Found one day apart.
05:57There's got to be a connection.
05:58It's not a coincidence.
06:00Good morning!
06:03Ooh.
06:07How are you doing?
06:08It must have been terrible digging up a body.
06:11I can't imagine how you must be feeling.
06:12The police said it's been in the ground at least ten years.
06:15I don't suppose you were here ten years ago.
06:18I only moved to Marlow five years ago when I bought this site.
06:21Well, can I ask, what made you dig here?
06:24What?
06:25Well, yesterday your diggers were there, and this morning they're here.
06:29Why?
06:30I don't have to talk to you.
06:32Yes, you do.
06:33You're going to get arrested for criminal damage.
06:35I'll be very careful what you say to me, List.
06:37Phil told us all about the rotten food in his bins and down his drains.
06:41That was you, wasn't it?
06:42Which is why you got an old bin full of rotten food by your office.
06:47That's criminal damage, intimidation...
06:49All right.
06:49I can't start the next stage until Kerry and Dean move out and they're so stubborn.
06:53And you'll go to any lengths to get rid of them.
06:55You don't... you don't get it, do you?
06:57For the past five years, those two families have stood in the way of their whole community.
07:01And your profit.
07:03It's not a crime to make a living.
07:06We need to speak to Dean Butler.
07:09I want to know why his wife's so jittery, where he is with his loans,
07:12and what he has to say about a body right by his garden.
07:17Oh!
07:18Oh, sorry, I'd love to come.
07:20I promise this is the last time.
07:33The End
07:33Okay, everyone. Dental records confirm the skeleton belongs to a man called Sebastian or Seb Teller.
07:39He was reported missing...
07:40Hold on. He's Seb Teller? You knew him?
07:42Yeah, I arrested him loads of times. He was a little horror.
07:45Flashy with it. And smart. He could have made something of himself.
07:48But he's all about the easy money.
07:50What was he into?
07:51Robbery, mainly. And he fell off the radar.
07:54All activity on his bank account stopped in June 2009.
07:57The same month that his father, John Teller, reported him missing.
08:01Alice, can you see if you can make contact with John?
08:03Got it.
08:04Brendan, I want you to find out what you can about Seb Teller.
08:06See if there are any links to Louis Oldham or any of the residents of Liniclos.
08:10Okay.
08:11And Jason, see if you can find out what our four witnesses and Grace Wellingborough were up to at that
08:15time.
08:16I think one of them could have killed him.
08:18I think one of them killed Louis Oldham.
08:20Let's see if it's the first time they've committed murder or the second.
08:25Hello, Alan.
08:27I'm coming here.ントict
08:35in the light of the background. All koines!
08:43Hi. Dean.
08:45Er,
08:45I hope
08:46you don't mind just coming to your place at work. Kerry seemed quite upset
08:49when we called round. Don't you go
08:52near my way now. Mr. proprietor,
08:52wife and you stay away from my property.
08:54Well, then it would help if you tell us
08:56what you know. It's not every day
08:58a body is found at the back of your garden.
09:00Except that's two bodies now. One at the front
09:02and one at the back. First I knew
09:04about it was when you lot showed up.
09:06Phil seemed to think that you were the one on Linnet
09:08Close, capable of murder.
09:12He's the one
09:12who's obsessive, spying on me
09:14and Kerry and his two-faced, agreeing to sell
09:16to Grace and then lying to us about it.
09:18But that's not a motive. Whereas you have
09:21significant money problems, all
09:22those loans you're juggling.
09:27Business is going through a rough patch.
09:29That's all.
09:30Yeah, but your debts are spiralling
09:32and I doubt Kerry's wages
09:34can make much of a dent. And
09:36Louis Oldham worked for a loans company.
09:38If I was up to my eyes in debt, I'd
09:40sell my house and I'd tear it all
09:42off in one go. Get out.
09:46Kerry doesn't know, does she?
09:48Get out!
09:56You're leaving.
09:59You're leaving.
10:02Do you have to go there?
10:08You're leaving.
10:22This is Wingrave?
10:26Sorry, I didn't see you there.
10:28I find this spot comforting to...
10:31to have heard.
10:34Another body.
10:38When things get too much, I find solace in a church.
10:43That which is has already been.
10:47And what is to be has already been.
10:50You were already dealing with major life events.
10:54Evie's new baby, moving to another country.
10:57And now two murders on our doorstep.
11:00Anyone would feel unmoored.
11:05All of this forces you to look at everything in a new light.
11:09Recalibrate memories.
11:11In what way?
11:13Bill always says you think you know someone.
11:16But you never do.
11:19Are you talking about Kerry?
11:21Yesterday we heard Kerry ask you to stay for her sake.
11:25For years we stood shoulder to shoulder against Grace Wellingborough and the development.
11:29And now, now I'm just swanning off.
11:34You're supporting your daughter.
11:38Do you think Kerry's involved in these deaths?
11:41No.
11:42Dean?
11:45I just don't know anymore.
11:56Taneika said that Seb Taylor disappeared in June 2009.
12:00There may be some sort of appeal for information.
12:02Quotes from family, friends, possibly a contact number.
12:06Something that won't be online.
12:08Special delivery.
12:09Maidenhead advertiser.
12:11June to August 2009.
12:16Have you opened the last letter in the stash?
12:18You're not distracting me that easily.
12:19It's all connected.
12:21Your aunt held onto items that were important to her.
12:24The newspapers.
12:25The letters.
12:26Yes, but even Jess didn't open the last letter.
12:28Resisted the temptation for decades.
12:30Look, whatever happened is in the past.
12:36You're right.
12:40I'll just open it.
13:00He'd want you there.
13:01Well, it doesn't say who it's from.
13:02I bet it's Nathan's wife.
13:06And she's still invited Jess to his funeral.
13:09When did Jess die?
13:10Um, 2018.
13:12And Nathan died in 1972.
13:14Is that when she stopped wearing those fancy clothes?
13:16And mink's stoles.
13:19She never got over him, did she?
13:21How many years, Judy?
13:2446 years.
13:25That is a long time to hang on to the past.
13:31Uh-oh.
13:34Once again, great-aunt Jess to the rescue.
13:38It's Grace.
13:40Looks like she's working on a housing development in Marlow.
13:44June 2009, to be precise.
13:47The same month Seb vanished.
13:49But Grace told us she only moved to Marlow five years ago.
13:52So why did she lie?
13:59You were in Marlow the same month Seb Teller vanished.
14:02Your inner rears at the bank, you can't afford stuff.
14:12Do you know how you make it in the building industry?
14:15As a woman.
14:18Be one of the lads.
14:20Laugh at the jokes.
14:23Protect yourself.
14:26I shouldn't have lied to you.
14:29But I can't be connected to that body.
14:31I can't afford the delays.
14:33Someone killed Seb Teller.
14:35It could easily have been you.
14:36It wasn't.
14:38I never even heard that name before today.
14:40And Louis Oldham?
14:43I will threaten.
14:45And I'll intimidate, no problem.
14:48I draw the line at murder.
14:58I'm struggling to find any of Seb Teller's family or known associates.
15:02His mother died recently.
15:04His father's not returning our calls.
15:05And local police are getting no response at the house.
15:08Maybe he's out on the rob.
15:10John Teller was a bigger crook than his son.
15:12He thought of himself as some sort of gentleman fief.
15:15But he was just your bog-standard burglar.
15:17And what about Grace Wellingworth?
15:18She was in Marlow when Seb went missing.
15:21And she owns the land where Louis' body was found.
15:24Phone records confirm her alibi.
15:27She was speaking to her supplier.
15:29Oh.
15:33What did the pathologist say about Seb Teller?
15:35The report's due any time.
15:37But we do have his missing persons from 2009.
15:40Oh, he looks so young.
15:42Well, wait.
15:43How old was Seb when he died?
15:45Er, 20.
15:46And 15 years later, Louis was 35 when he died.
15:50Both men were born in the same year.
15:52Oh, he's saying there's a link.
15:53Two boys, the same age, both living in Maidenhead.
15:57Both wind up murdered in the same spot.
16:00I'd call that a link.
16:01Okay.
16:02You need to see this.
16:06I've been focusing on Kerry and Dean Butler.
16:09And look, the High Wiccan planning portal.
16:11They applied for planning permission to build a pergola in 2009.
16:14What month?
16:15May 2009.
16:16The month before Seb went missing.
16:18Presumed dead.
16:19Coincidence?
16:20I don't believe in coincidence.
16:21Wait.
16:22Either Dean or Kerry killed Seb Teller
16:24and then buried him under the pergola they were building.
16:27Let's bring him in.
16:28Hmm.
16:31I like the ring of officers.
16:33I've never done anything.
16:35My lawyers will give you forgotten from him, right?
16:37I've got nothing more to say.
16:39Right.
16:40Come on.
16:41Head down.
16:52The butlers aren't cooperating.
16:54Hmm.
16:55That's because they're guilty.
16:56Well, one of them is.
16:58We need to focus on finding some evidence
16:59which is going to force them to talk.
17:02Chase up the river, please.
17:03Why is it taking so long?
17:04Yeah.
17:05In the absence of a murder weapon,
17:07we have got to find a link
17:08between Kerry and Dean Butler
17:09and Seb Teller and Louis Oldham.
17:13Look, it's been a hard few days.
17:15Let's all come back with fresh eyes tomorrow.
17:18Well done, everyone.
17:21Cool.
17:25There's only one word I want to say.
17:27Pub?
17:28Hey, how about bowling?
17:29If you lot don't mind being defeated again.
17:31You're still planning on that story.
17:33Oh, I'm sorry.
17:33You're still bitter about my overwhelming talent, Jason.
17:36Oh, you're talking about your lucky strike?
17:37Oh, well, as the great man said,
17:39the more I practice, the luckier I get.
17:42Well, you all went bowling.
17:45Yeah, well, we would have asked you,
17:47but we didn't think it was your thing.
17:49You know me too well.
17:51Honestly, Brendan will call another victory
17:53for the senior management team.
17:55Yeah, I will.
17:56I guess you'll be celebrating
17:58the poetry assembly with Shanti.
18:00How did it go?
18:03Sarge?
18:04She was brilliant.
18:05Thanks for asking.
18:09Right.
18:12Go on, go on, Nina.
18:13Come on.
18:17I love getting out of here.
18:19Oh, what do you know?
18:23Tanika?
18:24Have they confessed to murder?
18:26Not yet.
18:28Are you okay?
18:30We still can't find any links
18:32between the butlers and either victim.
18:34Can't find any links
18:35between Sir Teller and Danyolden.
18:38And I'm the worst mother
18:39who's ever lived.
18:40Apart from that.
18:42Yeah, great.
18:42What happened?
18:44I miss Shanti's perm assembly.
18:47Well, you are trying to solve two murders.
18:49Did Shamil go?
18:51Of course he did.
18:53He's a good parent.
18:54Tanika, the worst mother that ever lived
18:56won't give a toss about
18:57helping with poems about hedgehogs.
18:59I still let her down
19:01and put my job before her.
19:03You'll make it up to her.
19:04She knows she's loved.
19:08You're right.
19:10You're right, thanks.
19:12Speak tomorrow.
19:30Oh, thanks for doing that.
19:32What social media are you on?
19:34Me.
19:35Just Tinder.
19:36Chloe.
19:37Is your face?
19:39Seriously.
19:40I'm not telling you.
19:41It's for the murder cases.
19:43OK, Snapchat, Insta and TikTok.
19:46Not Facebook.
19:47That's for old people.
19:50That's the point, isn't it?
19:52It was all different 15 years ago.
19:56See ya.
20:02We've been trying so hard
20:04to find a connection
20:04between Seb Teller and Louis Oldham
20:06but maybe we've been looking
20:07in the wrong place.
20:08What do you mean?
20:09Well, 15 years ago
20:09the internet was completely different.
20:11Very true.
20:12Everyone was signed up
20:13to Friends Reunited.
20:14Oh my God.
20:15I'd forgotten about that.
20:17Weirdos from school
20:18trying to hook up with you
20:19decades later.
20:20Oh, you as well.
20:21Oh, it was everyone.
20:23But there was also Blogger.
20:24Do you remember that?
20:25Mm-hmm.
20:25And MySpace.
20:26And Bebo.
20:27No, never signed up
20:28to none of those.
20:30But what if Louis or Seb did?
20:32That's a good point.
20:38Well...
20:44That's a good point.
20:49No, never signed up.
20:53No, never signed up.
20:55No, never signed up.
21:07No, never signed up.
21:08No, never signed up.
21:09No, never signed up.
21:10No, never signed up.
21:10No, never signed up.
21:11No, never signed up.
21:11No, never signed up.
21:12No, never signed up.
21:13No, never signed up.
21:14No, never signed up.
21:18No, never signed up.
21:42who are you tell me at once that's a mob
21:49the Carthaginians poisoned the tips of their javelins with lime and arsenic
21:54I've used chili powder and bleach
21:57Fascinating
22:00What are you doing with that photo?
22:07You're John Teller, aren't you?
22:13You kid yourself he's abroad somewhere
22:16Wheeler Deelin
22:18and then one day he'll just walk
22:22walk through that door
22:25What was Seb like?
22:28Total charmer
22:30Bit of a git
22:31like his old man
22:34We went through all the proper channels at the time
22:36reported him missing to the cops
22:38but they don't do nothing
22:41not for an ex-con
22:43Judith, we found the link between Seb Teller and Louis Oldham
22:46Look, they're in a band together
22:48Oh, oh sorry
22:51These are my friends, Susie and Bex
22:54This is John Teller
22:57Oh, sorry for your loss
22:59Can I see that?
23:00Of course
23:04Louis couldn't sing and Seb couldn't play
23:06It's like nails down a chalkboard
23:08So you knew Louis Oldham?
23:11Yeah
23:12I haven't seen him in 15 years
23:15It was my ex-wife's funeral a few weeks back
23:18Seb's mum
23:20Louis was there
23:22John?
23:24John?
23:25It's me, Louis
23:26I barely recognised him
23:27He was all grown up
23:29A man
23:29It is, yeah
23:32Seb would never have missed his mum's funeral
23:35Louis knew that
23:37And I
23:39Couldn't pretend anymore
23:42Louis
23:43Told me about the last time he saw Seb
23:46The band had a gig but
23:48Seb didn't show
23:53Didn't answer his phone or his emails from that
23:55Moment on
23:57I thought maybe I could explain that
24:00Because the last time I spoke to Seb
24:02He told me that
24:03He was trying to get back with some girl in Marlowe
24:06Some posh bird
24:09That seemed to trip a switch
24:11And he asked for my number and
24:13Promised he'd get in touch
24:16Then I heard from Louis a few days ago
24:19He said he was onto something and I had to come to Marlowe
24:22By the time I got here, well
24:26He'd been murdered
24:28Couldn't you have gone to the police, told them what you knew?
24:31You and the police don't see eye to eye
24:35But you lot look like you're on the ball
24:39I don't suppose you remember the name of that posh bird?
24:42No
24:45But she looks about Seb's time
24:47And Seb's body was found by her garden
24:49She's not talking
24:51But maybe Caroline knows something
25:01Looks like no one's home
25:02Tanika
25:03Have Dean or Kerry confessed?
25:05Not yet
25:06And we can only keep them for a few more hours
25:08But we finally got the pathology report
25:10It confirmed Seb Teller died 15 years ago
25:13Which fits the time he disappeared
25:15And the blood force trauma was caused by a smooth object
25:18Splinters of wood were found at the site of the wound
25:19The killer hit him with something wooden
25:21Oh, and they found trace elements of a product called tongue oil
25:25Apparently it's used to protect the wood on boats
25:27Sheds, garden furniture, that sort of thing
25:29Okay
25:30Okay
25:30Thank you
25:34What is it?
25:48Thank you
26:18Mrs. Wingrave?
26:22Can we ask you a few questions?
26:24Yes, of course
26:25Do you want a sandwich?
26:26Oh, ham and...
26:27Oh, no, we're fine
26:28Thank you
26:28Has your husband always played cricket?
26:30Oh, yes, I've been a cricket widow for decades
26:33And may I ask
26:34Does the name Seb Teller mean anything to you?
26:37Who?
26:38He's the one whose body was found on Grace Wellenborough's site
26:40Seb went missing 15 years ago
26:43No, sorry
26:44The name doesn't mean anything to me
26:48Is it possible you and he were an item?
26:51I'm sorry
26:54Did you...
26:56Did you have a relationship with a man 15 years ago?
26:59He would have been 20
27:00Oh, how the mask slips
27:02No, I have never been unfaithful to my husband
27:12Mr. Wingrave
27:13May I ask
27:14What oil do you use on your back?
27:16What did you say to upset my wife?
27:18Have you ever used tongue oil?
27:19What?
27:20I only use pure linseed oil
27:22Like all proper cricketers
27:23What did you say to Caroline?
27:24I just had a few questions
27:25But she was most...
27:27Unhelpful
27:28Stay away from my family
27:30You're devoted to them, aren't you?
27:32And now a grandson on the way
27:34Man loves family
27:35Not exactly breaking news
27:37No, of course
27:37But this move means everything to you
27:41When's the baby due?
27:42Why is that relevant?
27:43A witness came forward
27:45They saw you throw something into the river
27:48Evidence?
27:49The marine unit's been trawling the river for days
27:52It's only a matter of time
27:55You're a decent man, Phil
27:57Anyone can see that
28:00But we've all done stupid things in our time
28:03And it was a knife
28:05I found it in the garden
28:07Just lying there
28:07I panicked
28:08Chucked it in the river
28:12Caroline and I tried for years to start a family
28:14Doctor said it was never going to happen
28:16And then it did
28:17Evie
28:17And now she's going to give birth in a few weeks
28:20I just want it all to go away
28:21Be with my daughter
28:25Why throw the knife away
28:26Instead of calling the police?
28:28The police?
28:31Why'd you think?
28:32I didn't want anything to do with it
28:38I'll tell them
28:40Does the name Seb Teller mean anything to you?
28:44No, nothing
28:47Okay, let's forget about Seb Teller for a minute
28:50And let's think about Lewis' case
28:51There were only five people that could have killed him
28:53Three of them were women
28:54They couldn't move the body
28:56So that leaves Phil or Dean
28:59And do we really believe Phil?
29:01That he just panicked about the knife
29:02Plausible to me
29:04But is that right?
29:06Is what right?
29:07Are we sure it couldn't have been a woman who killed Louis?
29:10But they couldn't move the body
29:11You said so yourself
29:12I know
29:14Look
29:16He's not strong enough to move his kit bag
29:18So he's leaving it where it is
29:20And he's moving everything else
29:21What are you saying?
29:23What if the reason Louis' body was found in the clothes
29:25Is because he was killed there
29:27And all of the evidence in the woods
29:29His wallet and so on
29:30Was taken from the body and placed there
29:33To misdirect the police
29:35You're right, Bex
29:37We've had this case the wrong way round
29:39We have?
29:41The place Louis was murdered
29:43Wasn't where he was murdered
29:44And more than that
29:46The posh bird
29:47Wasn't the posh bird
29:48None of this even makes sense
29:49Yeah, we're close in our own way
29:51And what if no one
29:53Hit Seb Teller on the head?
29:55We saw the photos
29:57They found trace elements
29:59Of a product called tunnel
30:00Apparently it's used to protect the wood on boats
30:02We've got a local carpenter to make the staircase
30:04Is that it?
30:06Well, Kerry and I still get on
30:07You always have
30:08Is that what happened?
30:12Why is she talking in riddles?
30:13Hold on
30:14We've been here before
30:16Do you know who killed Louis Oldham?
30:19I think I do
30:20And is it the same person who killed Seb Teller?
30:22It is
30:24In fact, they had to kill Louis
30:26Because they killed Seb
30:27How can you know that?
30:29Identify the posh bird
30:30And the killer is revealed
30:31You said the posh bird wasn't the posh bird
30:33Yes
30:34But there's a third posh bird out there
30:36We haven't even considered
30:37Yeah
30:38And um, he's going to transform
31:07I know we're frozen
31:07I hope you have any real
31:14Bex said you might be here.
31:18You weren't at home.
31:20You understand me so well.
31:25We know what happened.
31:27And that you knew Seb Teller.
31:30I didn't set out to hurt anyone.
31:32I was...
31:33I was just trying to protect my family.
31:37Fifteen years ago, Seb Teller dated your daughter Evie, didn't he?
31:42Dated.
31:44He controlled her.
31:46Gaslit her.
31:48She was a shell of herself.
31:51Phil and I were so relieved when she finally finished it.
31:54Until one night he turned up again.
31:58Phil and Evie were away in France.
32:01And I told him that she wasn't in.
32:04But he didn't believe you.
32:07You poisoned her against me.
32:08No, you did that on your way.
32:09He was drunk.
32:10Started shouting.
32:11No!
32:13He said that they belonged together.
32:16Demanded to see her and he wouldn't take no for an answer.
32:19You fought on the stairs.
32:26Seb hid his head on a wooden surface that had been treated with tongue oil.
32:34It was an accident.
32:37You've got to believe me.
32:39But what followed wasn't.
32:44I couldn't move.
32:46He was just lying there.
32:48It was a sort of thundering.
32:56Just like a storm.
32:58It was Kerry.
33:00She'd heard us.
33:03And then she saw him.
33:07She saw what I'd done.
33:15I'll call the police.
33:16No.
33:18No.
33:20I'll lose Evie.
33:23I'll lose most of her.
33:25It was self-defense.
33:26You had a decision to make.
33:29You couldn't leave Seb where he was.
33:32So you got Kerry to help you.
33:34She offered.
33:37We went through every scenario and it was the only option.
33:42Kerry and Dean were doing their back garden and it was just...
33:46It was mud.
33:49So we carried him into the back garden.
33:53We buried him there.
33:56And then the pergola went up and...
33:59Well, he's been there ever since.
34:01Kerry did all that out of friendship.
34:04She'd known men like Seb.
34:07Most women do.
34:09And I just got on with my life.
34:11We both did.
34:14You have no idea what it was like, though.
34:18Every time I heard a knock at the door, I just...
34:22I thought my whole world was going to collapse.
34:25And then one day it did.
34:28Louis showed up.
34:30Just when you were about to start a new life in France with Evie.
34:41He said he'd been talking to Seb's dad.
34:43And they were starting to piece it together.
34:45He knew Seb had come here that night.
34:47That it was the last time anyone had seen him.
34:49And I told him.
34:50I didn't know what he was talking about.
34:52But I could see he knew I was lying.
34:54You didn't talk to the cops.
34:55And it all came back.
34:56Wait.
34:57You're a liar.
34:57Everything I'd tried to bury for 15 years.
35:02I was so scared he'd tell Evie, too.
35:05Before I knew it.
35:15I can't imagine how much you must have panicked.
35:19You couldn't move the body on your own.
35:21So you decided to misdirect the police.
35:27You took Louis' possessions into the woods.
35:29So they'd think that was where he was killed.
35:36And to really sell it, you took the pollen from the fake murder scene.
35:39And you carried it back to the body.
35:42Making it look like you must have been there.
35:48You're one mistake.
35:51You forgot about the knife, didn't you?
35:55You had to get rid of it.
35:57So you dumped it in the first place you could think of.
36:01You're back, Gar.
36:10Carrie and I kept it a secret.
36:12Just the two of us for 15 years.
36:14Which is why she was so upset when you sold up.
36:17Everything I did, I did it for Evie.
36:19You've got to believe me.
36:21To keep her free.
36:26Please, I will tell the police that I made Carrie do it.
36:29But just help me keep her out of prison.
36:33That which is has already been.
36:36And what is to be has already been.
36:39But you didn't say the next part.
36:42God requires an account.
37:06Can I?
37:08Please?
37:10Please.
37:11Please.
37:12Please.
37:18Oh, my God.
37:46I never thought I could hurt anyone, till I had Zeta.
37:50But when someone threatens your child, you just see red.
38:02Judith, there's something I want to show you.
38:10Yes, I do know where my great-aunt is buried.
38:13It was me who put the flowers there.
38:15Of course, but I got up the parish records to see where Nathan Edwards was buried.
38:25Oh, she took the plot next to him.
38:28She spent 46 years without him after he died.
38:32So, she made sure she could be with him in death, for all time.
38:51I got a tattoo.
38:53That's what I've been doing with Daniel.
38:56No.
38:57That's extraordinary.
38:58I'd always wanted to get one, but I wasn't sure I could pull it off anymore.
39:01Of course you can.
39:02To be honest, I was worried it was all a bit mid-life crisis.
39:06I love it.
39:07Can we see it?
39:08What, here?
39:09Well, absolutely, no time like a present.
39:12It's still a bit raw, but it'll look better in a few weeks.
39:24Right.
39:25I think that's cause for a celebration.
39:27What's it going to be?
39:29Up.
39:29We could go up on him again.
39:31Oh, yeah.
39:32Can we invite the DS this time?
39:45I love you, spiky hedgehog.
39:47You lovely, spiky hedgehog.
39:49You're round like a pound and near to the ground and live in a hedge like a hog.
39:54That was amazing.
39:57Read it again.
39:58I love you, spiky hedgehog.
40:00You lovely, spiky hedgehog.
40:02You're round like a pound and near to the ground and live in a hedge like a hog.
