Transcript
00:14Stay back! I'm telling you, we're with the police!
00:18You shouldn't be in here.
00:24Hello, mate.
00:25Come on, Luna.
00:28Good girl.
00:29Good girl.
00:30Come on in.
00:32Come on, Judith.
00:34She's not picking up.
00:38Listen, um, is it strange that we're both here, you know, at the same time?
00:44Brendan, we're in the middle of a murder investigation.
00:46Yeah, I know, but it's just the cops.
00:49Hmm.
00:49Well, it travels fast, I see.
00:51Something like that.
00:54No.
00:56Sorry.
00:57Get up!
01:06Yes, yes, thank you, Jason.
01:08Has Alice gone to you, Jessica?
01:09Yes, she's gone to you.
01:13Did you kill him?
01:14Did you kill Freddy?
01:15What?
01:16No, of course I didn't.
01:17I didn't kill anyone.
01:19This is my house.
01:20I'm Hector Bly.
01:21You've been spying on us.
01:23Not on you.
01:24On the house.
01:25On my belongings.
01:26Look, I'm not going to hurt you.
01:28Let's put this down, shall we?
01:31I haven't hurt anyone.
01:32Sit down.
01:34Even if you're telling the truth, this is all still highly illegal.
01:38She's absolutely right.
01:39It's against the law to record guests in a privately rented accommodation.
01:43Mr. Bly, meet D.I. Malik.
01:45Tanika, our ghost has been found.
01:49Look, this camera's on Ulrich the Bear.
01:52This on the armour.
01:53The French cabinet was a wedding present, and that painting's an original.
01:58I can't believe you've been sat up here the whole time watching us.
02:00A few months ago, some drunken lout smashed my medal cabinet.
02:05I thought I'm not having it.
02:06Mr. Bly, you're aware there's a murder investigation going on inside your house that you're now a viable suspect for?
02:11I didn't even know the chap.
02:13Look, if I was going to murder a guest, which I wouldn't, I've had a lot worse groups than this
02:19one.
02:19We're going to need the files from last night.
02:21Please download them.
02:23But I'll still need you to come to the station, answer some questions.
02:26This way, please.
02:27I must say, this is a complete affront.
02:29And I shall be sending you a bill for that attic door you both busted.
02:33Trust you lot to be so heavy-handed.
02:34If the door hadn't mysteriously locked itself, Mr. Bly, we wouldn't have had to break it.
02:38Why would you rent your house out if you don't want guests?
02:41This place has been in my family for 300 years.
02:44You think I want to be the one who has to sell it?
02:46This should have all the footage from yesterday until a few minutes ago.
02:51Hector, a quick question for you.
02:54Questions, questions.
02:55Have you by any chance seen a copy of this book in the last day?
02:58Never seen that book before in my life.
03:00How long will this take?
03:01Do you want me to sit in the back like a criminal?
03:04Well, it would be a bit cosy if you joined us at the front, wouldn't you?
03:08Mind your head.
03:23I've already told DC Hackett my lawyer won't be able to get here until the morning.
03:26We're more than happy to wait.
03:27Right.
03:28Well, I'll see you then.
03:30Come on, Jess.
03:32Can I call you Jess?
03:34No.
03:34Right.
03:35Well, I was just going to say that, you know, it could get messy.
03:39Mixing personal with professional.
03:43Especially since you had an affair with the victim.
03:45How on earth did you jump to that conclusion?
03:47You requested a receipt for a hotel room booked under Freddie's name on the night of the reunion.
03:52And you told us that you didn't see him that evening.
03:55I wasn't having an affair with Freddie.
03:58So, how do you explain the receipt?
04:01It's complicated.
04:02I'm not denying I asked for it.
04:05Oh.
04:07It's awkward, isn't it?
04:09I mean, sometimes people do stuff.
04:12They don't want to be seen by anyone or caught.
04:15And that's it, isn't it?
04:17You might not have been having an affair with Freddie, but you knew that he was having an affair.
04:22And why would you ask for the receipt unless it was useful to you for another reason?
04:31Things have been rough.
04:33At work.
04:34There was a partner position opening up.
04:37It's competitive, so I had to bring something big to the table.
04:40What does that have to do with Freddie?
04:42His wife's company developed a hybrid solar generator system.
04:45Say what now?
04:46It's amazing for the environment.
04:48And it would have bought in a ton of money.
04:50I saw him with that woman at the hotel by accident.
04:54And it was like it just fell into my lap.
04:55I'm hardly proud of blackmailing your friend.
04:59I'm assuming that's what you did.
05:01After a little push, Freddie agreed to help.
05:04But the contracts weren't signed yet.
05:06I mean, why would I do him any harm before the deal was done?
05:09You stalled us by a day.
05:11You're not students anymore.
05:13I need you all to grow up and start cooperating.
05:17That means you as well.
05:21Look, there is something else you should know.
05:24The woman, the one Freddie was having an affair with.
05:26Her name's Sasha Hill.
05:28Hill as in?
05:30Ryan's ex-wife.
05:32Good lord.
05:33And that's all I know.
05:35Promise.
05:41A moment, Judith.
05:42How can I help?
05:43Don't think it went unnoticed that you and Bex found that room together.
05:46Solid teamwork, that.
05:47When Bex specifically wasn't supposed to be investigating.
05:50It was entirely my fault, I assure you.
05:52I coerced her.
05:55Bex has already been seen to withhold information.
05:57If the CPS heard about her involvement, it could jeopardise her conviction down the line,
06:01and mean no more investigating for you.
06:03At all.
06:04Ever.
06:05I know you don't want that.
06:07It would never come to that.
06:08I promise.
06:09But it so easily could if you carry on as you have been.
06:12You have to take this seriously.
06:14I will.
06:15We will.
06:15Go.
06:16I managed to track down Sasha Hill.
06:18She's in Singapore for work.
06:20Been there the last week.
06:21Right.
06:21Well, let's see what Ryan has to say.
06:24I think we'll take this one.
06:27Oh.
06:27Please.
06:28You go ahead.
06:31I told us, didn't I?
06:32Us?
06:33I wasn't even involved.
06:35Oh, I'm guilty by association now.
06:38Where's your van?
06:39And why's Luna here?
06:42Ta, you will not believe if I bumped into her speed, are you?
06:50Have you got news?
06:51We actually have more questions.
06:55Did Freddie ever talk to you about his marriage?
06:58About him and Marie.
06:59Not really.
07:00Why?
07:01Did he seem happy?
07:02Yeah.
07:03I mean, he wouldn't shut up about the new job.
07:06But he talked about Marie.
07:08Their daughter Ellie, too.
07:13They were taking her to Disneyland in the summer.
07:16I can't get my head around it.
07:19Why are you asking about Marie?
07:20Well, new evidence suggests that Freddie was having an affair in the months before his death.
07:26Did you know anything about that?
07:28No.
07:29I thought Freddie was happy.
07:31He adored Marie.
07:33Are you sure?
07:35Ryan, the woman he was having an affair with was Sasha Hill.
07:39Sasha?
07:41And Freddie?
07:42Your friend was having an affair with your ex-wife and you knew nothing about it?
07:49You think I knew?
07:50And what? Killed him for it?
07:54Sasha and I married at 23, but we were divorced by 27.
07:58I haven't even spoken to her in about a decade.
08:01It all got a bit messy when she came for a piece of my foundation.
08:04We heard you and Freddie were rivals.
08:06Well, yeah, we competed over everything at uni.
08:08Including girlfriends.
08:10I guess.
08:12But that was all a very long time ago.
08:14And you don't think Freddie was trying to provoke a reaction?
08:17I think you know enough about Freddie by now to know that if he wanted a reaction,
08:21he'd have been pretty vocal about him and Sasha.
08:25Tell me I'm wrong.
08:31I believe them.
08:32I don't think you knew about the affair.
08:34Hmm, I'm inclined to agree.
08:36Every lead has all a bloody dead end with this lot.
08:38And this lying and cheating.
08:40It's exhausting.
08:41Let's hope Hector Bly's camera footage sheds some light.
09:03I can't believe it.
09:04I knew I heard footsteps upstairs.
09:05But the idea that he was there the whole times.
09:09There's some croissants here if you want one.
09:13Okay.
09:17Jess, we should talk.
09:20Una wasn't trying to throw you under the bus.
09:23Plus, I'm the one who passed that information on.
09:26I'm going.
09:27This afternoon.
09:29I know it makes me look guilty, but I already do.
09:32Thanks to you both.
09:33Pot kettle black.
09:36I was telling the truth.
09:38Everyone seems really keen on that.
09:39I'm not upset you told the police.
09:41Someone murdered Freddie.
09:42Of course you should tell the police.
09:44But you didn't tell me.
09:45Well, I didn't think you cared.
09:47It's the principle.
09:48Do you know how stupid I feel?
09:50Knowing that you and Freddie have this little secret behind my back.
09:53I'd say we're all feeling a little betrayed here.
09:55Get in line.
09:56Your ego's the least of our worries.
09:58Can we just talk this out?
10:02How did you skate under the police radar?
10:04What, one quick chat and they're not interested in you?
10:07And eavesdropping on conversations that don't concern you.
10:09You seem really interested in what's happening to us.
10:12It's not Una's fault.
10:13Don't defend her.
10:14I know you were listening too.
10:15You're not as perfect as you think you are.
10:17I don't think I'm perfect.
10:18I'm done. I'm going.
10:28I'm going to call home.
10:35And we think we can pinpoint the moment of Freddie's death.
10:38Look, here.
10:40Una is in the frame at 21-21 and 34 seconds.
10:45That's where she hears Freddie's shout.
10:47It also means Una's alibi checks out, so that's a good start.
10:49Well, this is even better.
10:51There's a camera in the entrance hall pointing at the bear.
10:53Bex passes it seconds before they shout.
10:56And immediately afterwards, her and Jessica enter frame
11:00and head towards the stairs.
11:02So, that leaves Ryan and Oscar.
11:05Anything?
11:06Look at this camera.
11:08Wait for it.
11:1021-21 and 34 seconds.
11:13So, Oscar.
11:15You might stop enjoying this so much now.
11:1821-21 and 34.
11:20That's all of them.
11:21Yep.
11:22Yep, they were all on camera at the time of death or immediately afterwards.
11:26What about Hector Bly?
11:27Well, there's a camera blind spot around his secret room.
11:30But we did a sweep of his computer to check his alibi.
11:33And he was playing internet chess at the time.
11:35Yeah, it's called Blitz Chess.
11:36It's super fast.
11:37Every move is recorded on the server.
11:39He didn't have time to leave his desk during the match.
11:42Then, who killed Freddie?
11:46I don't understand. We've already been over this.
11:48You know where we were and what happened.
11:50And you said we're on cameras. We can't be one of us.
11:52Our problem lies in the fact that two of you saw another person outside the library.
11:55But if the evidence suggests there wasn't, then surely that's the most likely option.
11:59It was dark. I don't think they know what they saw.
12:01We didn't just imagine someone.
12:03He's right. There was definitely someone there.
12:05But I don't get it.
12:06You find a secret room with someone hiding back there, watching us, and you're questioning us.
12:12Surely he was outside the library.
12:13Mr. Bly has an alibi covering that period of time.
12:16So do we.
12:17Oh, she speaks.
12:18Just because I'm not getting angry doesn't mean I don't want to get out of here as much as you
12:21do.
12:21No, you're loving the gossip too much.
12:22You're not being helpful.
12:24Oi!
12:25Enough!
12:27In case you've forgotten, you're all part of a murder investigation.
12:30We are trying to get to the truth.
12:32We've told you everything we know.
12:34I just want to go home.
12:36I'm already packed.
12:38We're trying to get to the bottom of this as quickly as we possibly can.
12:41And for that to happen, we really need you to stay here.
12:44You are due to check out in two hours anyway.
12:47Stay until then and then leave as planned.
12:49Whatever you need.
12:51I can do two hours.
12:53Okay.
12:54Fine.
12:57Who's that?
12:59This is Hector Bly.
13:00You've got a nerve coming back here.
13:02This is my house.
13:03Where else would I go?
13:04Don't mind me.
13:08Oh, come in.
13:09It's open.
13:12Oh.
13:13Mrs. Potts, I've got my quote.
13:15I thought I'd deliver it.
13:16A little example of the personal service you can expect.
13:19How polite.
13:28Oh.
13:29Now that's impressive.
13:31Yeah, I've always been good at word searches, me.
13:33But those cryptic crosswords.
13:34Losing that.
13:35Never meant any sense.
13:36Oh, it's just a matter of practice.
13:39And patience.
13:41Some of it's as simple as words with multiple meanings.
13:45For example, you might write, shark.
13:46Now, you could mean the titular star of the film, Jaws.
13:50Or you could mean someone who purposefully exploits and swindles people.
13:54I've not seen the film.
13:55Then there are hidden words.
13:58Well, how do you hide words?
13:58Well, you hide smaller words in larger words or phrases.
14:12You know, thank you so much for your quote, but I'm afraid I have to go.
14:17If I could just have a minute, we could just-
14:19No, no, there's somewhere I need to be really quite urgently.
14:21If you could just-
14:22Again?
14:23You've been extremely helpful, but I'm afraid I won't require your services.
14:28But I will leave you an excellent review.
14:30Right, yeah, sure.
14:32What's the problem?
14:33We aren't going to be able to stall them any longer, and we don't have the evidence to detain them.
14:37Once they scatter back across the country, it's going to make everything harder.
14:42I need you to double-check everything we've got so far.
14:45And any time someone from that house appears on one of Hector's cameras, I want it logged.
14:49As far as I'm concerned, any of them could still be responsible.
14:53We're missing something.
15:00Wings!
15:03Bess!
15:04She's got its somewhere.
15:06Can't you?
15:16Let's try upstairs.
15:18Yeah.
15:18Oh, what are you doing?
15:19Looking for you.
15:20Quietly.
15:21You're going to get me in trouble with Tanika.
15:23Again.
15:31what's going on we need to ask Hector a question and we thought it might be best coming from you
15:38he was hardly my biggest fan but you're so good with people even mrs. Eddingham's obsessed with
15:44you you're so personable and lovely yeah exactly but he's Bex if you help us with this we'll tell
15:53you all about Susie's date with Brendan Susie's what with whom come on walk this way keep off the
16:14grass sorry sorry you're here to accuse me of murder again no it's just you have a really beautiful home
16:23I didn't have a chance to say before
16:30anything else I had a small question yep your beautiful library I was walking around there
16:38earlier and thought you know what I fancy reading something a bit gothic I don't suppose you have a
16:43copy of Dracula do you see my house is like Dracula's castle not at all I just love that story
16:50and thought
16:51I'd pass the time better than burying my head in my phone people are too reliant on technology these
16:56days I don't trust it it's in the library far left shelf high up there's an entire gothic section thank
17:02you the grass keep off the grass
17:08Susie so you just talked about the case no sparks there wasn't time for anything else you know you
17:15really sold this as a more exciting story well he got you to talk to Hector didn't it and that
17:20got us
17:21here oh wait wait here we go now hang on Dracula how is that possible did he have two copies
17:34not
17:34exactly Freddy needed a book that was bigger than Ryan's and a title he could easily remember for a
17:41man who did his PhD in gothic literature Dracula would have been an obvious choice he ripped out the
17:47pages and used it to hide Ryan's book so why would he do that because I think this book is
17:53important
17:54and he needed to keep it safe another nice message from Ryan exactly like the others
18:02there's got to be something wait wait there's something tucked inside
18:08what is it it says York University it's the front cover of a dissertation oh this is the essay that
18:18got Oscar thrown out of uni so why would Freddy have this he was working back at York maybe he
18:23found
18:23it but shoving this in Oscar's face I could have pushed him over the edge you need to go and
18:30talk to
18:30him we found Freddy's copy of Ryan's book oh that's good this was inside it had been hidden quite
18:42strategically what's she insinuating Freddy brought it back to taunt you about your failure that's why
18:51you killed him isn't it
19:00what are you talking about I didn't kill Freddy you didn't mind Freddy's outburst about the muddy
19:05trousers but having him mock you about the worst moment in your life nah it was all too much wasn't
19:11it you killed him I went to great lengths to hide the evidence no no that's not what happened it
19:17doesn't
19:17look good does it it's evidence that links you directly to the murder victim and it gives you a
19:22motive Oscar please just tell us the truth this is the first time I've seen it honestly even if
19:29Freddy was going to show me didn't have a chance before he died why would he bother hiding it if
19:32he
19:32didn't know you had it I'm telling you I don't know I'm not gonna get blamed for something I didn't
19:36do
19:36again not when everyone else is bolting around behaving terribly Jessica blackmailing Freddy
19:42Ryan playing the nice guy pretending doesn't care that Freddy's sleeping with Sasha those gifts
19:47you didn't even write the dedication I did big shot didn't have time apparently and Una pestering
19:52us all to come here and then throwing around the blame behind everyone's back I don't even know
19:57these people anymore what happened to get you expelled from university they found evidence of
20:04plagiarism in the essay and match the signature on this cover sheet of one of my passport and in their
20:09minds I was instantly guilty did you buy it I tried but when I went to find the original essay
20:13on my laptop the entire folder was gone I don't know if someone deleted it or if it was just
20:17a
20:17computer error but there was no trace at all no proof it ever existed well that's convenient I swear
20:25I'd never seen the plagiarized version before you must believe me surely I don't want this
20:38sure what happened again isn't it no one believed me then and now no one would believe I didn't
20:45kill Freddy
21:01what's up
21:04something's not right
21:07I know that look it doesn't make sense we're assuming Freddy hid a single piece of paper yes
21:14so why did he go to such lengths to hide it he could have slipped this bit of paper into
21:19any book
21:19on that shelf and it would have taken us days maybe even weeks to find it but he hid it
21:24alongside
21:25this book
21:29oh go on well it suggests they're only incriminating if they're together a clue hidden within a clue here hold
21:44this open for a moment
21:50look at the back
21:53the handwriting doesn't match
21:55if what Oscar said was true then the writing in the book is his
21:59so why doesn't it match the handwriting on the back of the cover sheet
22:05I think someone forged this cover sheet to make it look like Oscar had written the plagiarized essay
22:15what if Freddy did it Oscar found out and wanted revenge
22:21maybe but we need to work out whose handwriting this is
22:27how are we going to get handwriting samples from a group of people who are already on high alert
22:31if it's one of our suspects this could point us towards the killer
22:37but is it enough to implicate them
22:55well sweetie
22:56cheers
22:57how can I help Mr. Spotts
22:58well I know you're busy logging Hector's footage but I wondered if you could kindly take me through some of
23:03it
23:03sure thing but all our suspects are accounted for
23:06oh yeah except this person
23:10and if it wasn't Hector who was it
23:14well that's exactly what we're here to try and work out
23:18they were mostly in the kitchen and sitting room
23:24this is when they leave for lunch
23:29and then

23:41thought I'd found something
23:42could you take us forward to the moment Freddy died
23:46here we go
23:49here you know
23:52and there's Oscar
23:54and Ryan
23:56I think this might be the quietest you two have ever been
23:59sorry I didn't mean to disturb
24:00what have you got
24:02no that's it
24:03what is
24:05there's no sound
24:06Judith
24:08we need to have clearer conversations when this happens
24:11could you play that one more time for me please
24:17they're all
24:18turning towards the noise
24:20in their witness statements
24:22they all say they heard the shout
24:26now
24:26if the shout came from the library
24:28Oscar
24:29would have looked down
24:31and left
24:32but on the footage
24:34he instinctively looks
24:35down
24:36and right
24:40oh that's very clever
24:43I think I know who the killer is
24:46we have to get back to the house
24:48and I need to make a call
24:49well we better get our skates on
24:51Bex said
24:51everyone's getting ready to leave
24:53my band's around the back Judith
25:06are you sure this is the right way
25:08trust me Judith
25:13we gave them time
25:14we can't wait here forever
25:17we're heading to the same station
25:18so it just makes sense to
25:21I'm not running
25:22I don't think that
25:24call me
25:25if you need anything
25:26I'll message you
25:44I'm going nowhere
25:49are you crazy
25:51are you mad
25:53we know who murdered Freddy
25:54the police are on their way
25:56you need to come back to the house
25:58if you're still suggesting
25:59I'm responsible
25:59we're not
26:00don't worry
26:01here
26:04turn it over
26:07that's not my writing
26:08the university may have
26:10matched your signature
26:10but no one considered
26:12that the most insignificant
26:13writing on the document
26:14could be the most revealing
26:17someone framed you
26:18Oscar
26:19and we can prove it
26:26yeah I love that
26:27thanks
26:30how did you get here
26:31this quickly
26:32yeah I know
26:33a few shortcuts
26:34you are very lucky
26:35that the speed camera
26:36on Winter Hill
26:37is out of action
26:38is everyone else
26:39still in the house
26:39yes
26:40let's go
26:41now
26:43I guess
26:44you see
26:57people
26:57are surprising
26:59Freddy
27:00was surprising
27:01all weekend
27:02we've been hearing about
27:03Freddy's faults
27:05but you were still friends with him
27:06you wanted to spend time with him
27:08we were thinking
27:09about what Freddy did
27:11wrong
27:12that could have provoked
27:13his murderer
27:14what we didn't consider
27:16is that Freddy died
27:17because he did something right
27:20Judith
27:21who killed Freddy
27:24Ryan
27:24would you like to continue
27:26or shall I
27:28are you joking
27:29absolutely not
27:31he's also responsible
27:33for Oscar's expulsion
27:35from university
27:37are you really suggesting
27:39I ruined one friend's life
27:41and
27:41and then killed another
27:44we've been over this
27:46I didn't know about
27:48Freddy and Sasha
27:48and
27:49why would I frame Oscar
27:51well let's start there
27:52I don't think you intended
27:54to frame Oscar
27:55not originally
27:56Bex told us how you
27:57struggled at university
27:58in the foreword to your book
28:00you say yourself
28:02it was the toughest time
28:03of your life
28:05how you were suddenly
28:06a little fish
28:07in a big pond
28:08and
28:08when you got to your dissertation
28:10you panicked
28:10and you plagiarised material
28:12to get it finished
28:13but when it came to
28:15actually handing it in
28:16you knew you wouldn't
28:17get away with it
28:18so you put your cover sheet
28:20on Oscar's essay
28:21forged another
28:22signed supposedly
28:23by Oscar
28:24and put that
28:25on the plagiarised essay
28:26you knew you'd have to
28:28submit something
28:29to finish the course
28:29and you couldn't bear
28:31the thought
28:32of failing
28:33faking the signature
28:35of someone you knew
28:36so well
28:36can't have been hard
28:38you even deleted
28:39the essay
28:39from his computer
28:40well
28:41you lived together
28:42you certainly had the access
28:44Oscar was devastated
28:45he didn't notice
28:47the handwriting
28:47on the back
28:48of the cover sheet
28:49that would have
28:50exposed you
28:53you hired me
28:55I worked for you
28:56all these years
28:58you knew what you did
28:59and you said nothing
29:00I didn't
29:01Oscar
29:02I'm sorry
29:04but this
29:05has nothing
29:06to do
29:07with Freddy's death
29:08I didn't kill him
29:09we're getting to that
29:10Freddy must have been
29:11digging around
29:12in all your records
29:13presumably looking
29:15for something
29:15funny
29:16to bring back
29:17to the reunion
29:18dirt gossip
29:19but what he found
29:20was the dissertation
29:21in Oscar's records
29:23he brought it back
29:25and confronted you
29:25didn't he
29:28what's up
29:29we're about to go
29:31you know the unexpected
29:32bonus about my new job
29:35access to all the records
29:38everyone's grades
29:40the reports
29:42the disciplinaries
29:44there's not a shred
29:45of evidence
29:46for any of this
29:47you said that you grew
29:48out of the rivalry
29:49and I believe you might have
29:51but I don't think Freddy did
29:52that's why he was sleeping
29:54with your ex-wife
29:55Freddy
29:56discovered something huge
29:57he wasn't going to stand by
29:59with the knowledge
30:00that you had cheated
30:01framed Oscar
30:02and lied about it
30:04and it must have been
30:04a nice added bonus
30:05that he'd get to destroy
30:07his old rival's reputation
30:08while restoring Oscars
30:11that's your handwriting
30:12on the back
30:12isn't it
30:13yeah I'd recognise it anywhere
30:14you swapped Oscar's
30:16dissertation for yours
30:17looks like you've got
30:18an apology to make
30:20you can't be serious
30:21you can't believe anything
30:22with that
30:23oh I bet I can
30:24I think Oscar
30:25would give it a good shot too
30:27I've lost him
30:28his entire degree
30:29do you think he's going
30:30to be happy
30:30knowing the real reason
30:31he ended up as your
30:33blackie
30:33I mean what were you thinking
30:37what are you going to do
30:38give you the benefit
30:39of the doubt
30:40and the deadline
30:42if you don't say something
30:43by the time we leave
30:45I will
30:47let me show you something
30:53I'm on camera
30:54at the time of the murder
30:55we all are
30:56we went back over that
30:58footage a million times
30:59and Judith found something
31:00we had all missed
31:01you told us yourself
31:02you had extra access
31:04to the house that day
31:05your treasure
31:07on the recordings
31:08you move from room to room
31:09or perfectly innocent
31:11that's right
31:12you spend
31:13just over a minute
31:15planting a clue
31:16in each room
31:18except for here
31:19where you spend
31:20nearly six minutes
31:22in the camera blind spot
31:24right by Hector's
31:25secret door
31:27why would you spend
31:28so much time
31:29in this small space
31:30unless you'd found something
31:33Hector's cameras
31:35there was a man
31:36hiding in there
31:37how did I supposedly
31:39find his hideout
31:40he'd have seen me
31:41because he wasn't there
31:42the whole time
31:42I reckon
31:44you didn't have much
31:44of a plan until then
31:46and with only six of you
31:47in the house
31:47you knew that hurting
31:49Freddy would be too risky
31:50because the police
31:50would know it was one of you
31:51and you couldn't let the news
31:53about the dissertation
31:54get out
31:54because that would ruin
31:55everything that you'd built up
31:56your charitable foundation
31:58your
31:59well
31:59your reputation
32:00as an honourable man
32:02knowing about the cameras
32:03it gave you the ingredients
32:05for the perfect alibi
32:08you even planted the idea
32:09that there was another person
32:10in the house first
32:11the figure
32:12outside
32:13the library
32:14if I saw that person
32:16there was someone there
32:17exactly
32:17you did see someone
32:19you saw Ryan
32:20and Ryan saw you
32:21and he knew that if he
32:23corroborated what you'd seen
32:25then you'd both
32:26look innocent
32:30a shared witness statement
32:32and the suggestion
32:33of another person
32:35in the house
32:35who could have carried out
32:36the murder
32:36something that ultimately
32:38led us to Hector
32:41when you walked into the library
32:43and saw Freddy
32:46you spotted the knife
32:49you took it
32:53and you killed him
33:00very entertaining
33:01but you're forgetting
33:03that I was on camera
33:04when everyone heard the shout
33:05you were
33:06we'd always assumed
33:08that it was Freddy
33:09who shouted
33:09but in reality
33:11it could be any man's voice
33:12which explains
33:13why Oscar looks the wrong way
33:15when he hears the sound
33:15from the CCTV
33:17because the shout
33:18didn't come from the library
33:19it came from you
33:20in the hallway
33:21Freddy was already dead
33:24you knew exactly
33:26where the camera pointed
33:28and with your back to it
33:31you shouted
33:34then you turned
33:34to the supposed source
33:36of the noise
33:37knowing everyone else
33:39would too
33:39it's quite an impressive
33:40sleight of hand
33:41but the only thing
33:42you didn't find
33:42was the dissertation cover
33:44I'm guessing you searched
33:45the house
33:46when you set the treasure hunt
33:47but you had no idea
33:48Freddy would have hidden it
33:48so well
33:49Freddy knew you'd be
33:50after the evidence
33:51he anticipated
33:52that you try and steal
33:54the dissertation cover back
33:55that's why he went
33:57to such great pains
33:58to hide it
33:59paired with a sample
34:01of Oscar's real handwriting
34:03he didn't realise
34:05how far you'd go
34:06to silence it
34:09who's there?
34:10perfect timing
34:10I'm here
34:12is that Colin?
34:13yes it is
34:14I'm sorry
34:15it took longer than expected
34:16but I've got it
34:17it was at the bottom
34:18of the ottoman
34:19I think you're right on time
34:20thank you
34:21Bex
34:22do you mind
34:22if I borrow this?
34:24Susie
34:25have you got the dissertation?
34:28happy birthday Bex
34:30here's to another
34:31twenty years of friendship
34:33love
34:34Ryan
34:36the handwriting matches
34:37conclusive proof
34:54I didn't want to hurt him
34:58it all spiralled
35:01you've got to believe that
35:04but after everything
35:08I couldn't risk
35:09the foundation
35:10everything I built
35:12being exposed
35:13as a cheat
35:14and a liar
35:15and what?
35:17all as part of
35:18Freddy's ego trip
35:21if there was
35:22any other way
35:23I don't know
35:26what else could I do?
35:28think of how many people
35:30the foundation helps
35:33it wasn't about me
35:37it wasn't
35:40it was only ever
35:42about you
35:52no
35:57what much
35:58what I did
35:58about you
36:00when I was
36:02I think that
36:07I thought
36:09I thought
36:09Would you
36:09do
36:09if I won't
36:12to the
36:12score
36:16I don't understand why I can't keep hosting.
36:19I can't afford the outkeep.
36:20I'll lose it.
36:22We've been over this, Mr. Bly.
36:23Hidden cameras are illegal.
36:24You might not be able to host anymore,
36:26but why don't you open it up,
36:29let people see it, wander the gardens,
36:31charge a modest fee for the pleasure.
36:33You could even officially install cameras that way, too.
36:37Something to think about, but the public.
36:39Not sure how I feel about that.
36:41More people.
36:42Well, you're lucky that none of this lot
36:44want to press charges.
36:45I still think the courts would side with me.
36:50Janika, can I ask you a favor?
36:53Come here.
36:54I can't.
36:55I don't know what to say.
36:57I think it's going to be a while
36:58before any of us know what to say.
37:01I know it's not exactly like we're close anymore,
37:03but we've been through so much.
37:05I really don't want to lose contact.
37:06Me neither.
37:07You're always welcome at the vicarage.
37:09Just text me.
37:10I'll take you up on that.
37:15We haven't been the best at keeping in touch,
37:17but let's at least make the effort.
37:20Oh, for the sake.
37:23So what's next?
37:25Now that you can properly contest the plagiarism.
37:27I guess I can finally appeal the university.
37:29There's a lot of paperwork in my future.
37:31I hate how everything's turned out,
37:33but I'm so pleased for you.
37:35Just hope I can salvage the foundation.
37:37With Ryan gone, it's not going to be easy.
37:39With you, it'll be in good hands.
37:54You have me on the board.
37:57No, well...
37:58You could have picked a better photo.
38:00Well, I think it's lovely,
38:01and it wasn't the same without you.
38:03Oh, here comes the hero of the hour.
38:07I'm just very glad to have been helpful.
38:10I'm very happy to have you home.
38:13I can safely say I didn't enjoy
38:14having to keep things so formal in this one.
38:16You did everything you had to do.
38:18I'm just sorry it caused you extra stress.
38:20You're worth the trouble.
38:22And...
38:23Welcome back.
38:24Yes.
38:29Hey, are you?
38:30Oh, look, we should talk.
38:32Oh, Brendan, it's too soon.
38:33No, no.
38:33When am I going to meet your folks?
38:35Well, they live on the Isle of Man.
38:36No, wait, let me guess.
38:37It's not you, it's me.
38:38It's not where I'm going, I...
38:40What I'm trying to say is
38:40that I'd just appreciate if you didn't tell...
38:42Brendan, there's no reason to be embarrassed.
38:45You know, putting yourself out there,
38:47dating and all that.
38:48It's not for the faint hide, is it?
38:50Yes.
38:51It's a brave thing.
38:52But don't worry.
38:54I'm not going to tell anyone from your team.
38:56Thanks.
38:57But I'm afraid
38:58that ship may have already sailed with those two.
39:04Of course, Essel.
39:08Thank you for your help.
39:10I don't think anyone else
39:11could have got to the bottom of that mess.
39:12It was all so...
39:13Well, you couldn't have known it was him, Bex.
39:16All that time, the shame and guilt festering.
39:19The man who got into that police car
39:21isn't the man you went to university with.
39:24I know.
39:24I just can't believe he kept lying.
39:26Right up until the net fully closed in.
39:29It'll take a bit of time to process.
39:30Of course it will.
39:31But we'll be there to help
39:33in any way we can.
39:34I was always told
39:35that time doesn't define friendship.
39:38And I think that's particularly relevant to us.
39:43So if you and Brendan
39:44aren't going to be a thing,
39:45which I think is a shame, by the way,
39:47how did the rest of the speed dating go?
39:49Do you really want to know?
39:50Mm-hmm.
39:50You better buckle up, ladies.
39:52Because first, there was Greg.
39:53How did you feel about Christmas jumpers
39:55in Disneyland?
39:56And then he went on and on
39:57about classic stuff for breakfast.
39:59Oh, and then it's Josh.
40:00He's obsessed with Avakadon.
40:01When he comes to me,
40:02he's talking about Avakadon.
40:03Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
