00:53You're dead.
01:05And this is exactly why she didn't get picked for the production of Phantom we did in the
01:09second year.
01:10The arm's fine, but the open mouth.
01:12Hey!
01:15You got her pretty quickly.
01:17Oh, please.
01:19That's our prime suspect right there.
01:21Oh, I'm the absolute worst at this.
01:24You were very quiet.
01:26I didn't hear you coming.
01:27It's always the quiet one.
01:29Right.
01:30Well, oh, I think we've got time to squeeze one more round in.
01:33Oh, God forbid we derail the organised fun schedule.
01:37Freddie, come on.
01:39Same as before.
01:40Yeah.
01:41Pick a number.
01:42Get ready to hide.
01:44Pick the Joker.
01:46And you're our killer.
01:47Yeah.
01:47Hmm.
02:01Hello.
02:02Hello.
02:07I'm here.
02:07Bye.
02:07Bye.
02:07Bye.
02:08Bye, bye.
02:09Bye.
02:25Unlucky.
02:26It looks like you're my unfortunate victim.
02:29I always knew you were a dark horse.
02:31Come on, play nice.
02:33No, we're not getting on the floor.
02:36Fine.
02:36Just stay there for 20 seconds and then you shout out.
02:41Anything for you, Mrs Starling.
02:44One, two, and you best get going.
02:48Clock's ticking.
02:49Three, four, five.
03:11Lights on.
03:14Jess, I thought this definitely came from upstairs.
03:18No.
03:18No.
03:20Any other ideas?
03:21No one up here.
03:23You're there, Ryan.
03:25We're looking for Freddy then.
03:27Let's find the party, pooper.
03:28Anyone check the library?
03:29No.
03:29What about downstairs?
03:31Maybe the kitchen?
03:32Let's do the library first.
03:34Perfect place for a murder.
03:36Maybe it was Colonel Mustard.
03:38With the Boer war bayonet.
03:42He's not in here either.
03:46No, he's here.
03:50Freddy?
03:52Oh, no.
03:53Oh, my God.
04:10Do you know where I am?
04:12Oh, my God.
04:17Oh, God.
04:20Oh, no.
04:22Oh, Jesus.
04:34Oh, no.
04:39I'll get it.
04:47There you go, say it quick.
04:48They always do when someone,
04:51when something like this happens.
04:55He was sat right there,
04:56just making us all laugh.
05:00And now he's just...
05:04Everyone is in the sitting room.
05:06Freddie is...
05:07He's upstairs in the library.
05:10There's a knife and it's...
05:14It's OK.
05:15We'll take it from here.
05:17Just, it's a shock.
05:20Forensics should be here any minute,
05:21but I want to get that crime scene cordoned off,
05:23then we'll start taking witness statements.
05:25Sarge.
05:26Now, I know you'll want to call Judith and Susie,
05:29but I really think that first we should get an idea of...
05:40Oh, good.
05:41You're here.
05:46Bex, are you all right?
05:48What happened, Bex?
05:51This place is proper creepy.
05:54Are you scared?
05:55Somewhere like this has got to be haunted.
05:57100%.
05:58If only ghosts actually existed,
06:00then you'd be in trouble.
06:01Just because you haven't seen one.
06:03Are you honestly telling me you believe in all that?
06:05I'm open-minded.
06:06He listens to a podcast, right?
06:08Look, you said some of those stories are weird too.
06:10Oh.
06:16Well, that's some vicious ghost.
06:19Here you go.
06:21Thanks.
06:22Here.
06:24That'll help.
06:30We were playing a game of murder in the dark,
06:33and I was the killer in the game,
06:35and I found Freddy in the library.
06:39He shouted 20 seconds later, like he was supposed to,
06:42and I thought it was part of the game.
06:44But it must have been real,
06:46because when we went to find him...
06:51Gov.
06:52We've secured the crime scene.
06:55Excuse me.
06:58Thank you for coming.
06:59I'm sorry.
07:00I know it's late.
07:01I've spoken to Colin.
07:03I told him what happened.
07:04He's offered to come,
07:05but I don't think he'd be allowed.
07:08Oh, Bex.
07:10We're going to find out who did this.
07:12Don't you worry.
07:13Absolutely.
07:17No, it's Friday.
07:19Susie, wasn't your date tonight?
07:21Really? Now?
07:23Date?
07:23Yes.
07:24Please.
07:25Well, yeah, it was, but I was already home.
07:28A little more detail would be appreciated.
07:31Inspired by your blossoming relationship with the good professor.
07:35It's just a friendship.
07:36Yeah, whatever.
07:37I thought I'd dip my toe back in.
07:39And, you know, it was going really well for about 20 seconds.
07:43And then this fool asked him to take my shoes off before getting into his jag.
07:48Nah.
07:49He was not for me.
07:50Bex.
07:52Can you come through a minute, please?
08:02These are all locked up.
08:05They won't budge.
08:07So our killer must have come in from the hallway.
08:09Our victim's got his back to the door.
08:12They grab the nearest and easiest weapon and get Mr. Thatcher Hughes in the back before he's even had time
08:18to turn around.
08:20We've obviously got a lot of questions to ask you in the coming hours.
08:24Given the distance most of you have travelled, I'd ask that you please stay in the house overnight so that
08:28we can speak to each of you.
08:29Stay here.
08:30Where Freddie died?
08:32If you head home, it'll make the process a lot longer and more complicated.
08:38If you don't want to stay here, you're more than welcome to join me back at the station.
08:42Whatever we can do to help.
08:44Is it safe?
08:46We've done a full sweep of the house.
08:47There's no one else here.
08:48And we'll ensure there's officers with you overnight.
08:52I want to speak to each of you individually.
08:54But before we get started, has anyone else entered or left the house this evening?
08:59It was just the six of us.
09:01Yeah, since we got back at dinner time.
09:04Just the six of you.
09:08You don't think it was one of us?
09:11That's impossible.
09:14Sorry, Bex, but I'm going to need your lanyard back.
09:16You're too close to this one.
09:45Did Freddie ever do anything that could have led to this?
09:48I mean, Freddie was always at the center of some drama, from what I gather, but he was charming.
09:53He got away with it.
09:56He stole one of Oscar's girlfriends at some point.
09:59And Freddie and Ryan always had this weird rivalry going.
10:02I think they both saw themselves as the official leader of the group.
10:05But you need to be a really long time to hold on to a grudge, surely?
10:09People can be extremely petty.
10:11Lest we forget, the Trojan War essentially began because Paris stole Helen from Menelaus.
10:19Bex, we're about to start taking statements.
10:22It would be really useful if you could give us a bit of background on everyone.
10:24Oh, sure.
10:25Whatever I can do.
10:37Thank you, ladies.
10:39Oh, no, we'll just go and take a look around.
10:42Won't we, Susie?
10:42Yeah.
10:47I know you're still there.
10:49On our way.
10:49Sorry.
10:55Okay, so Ryan, Ryan Hill.
10:57You might know his name.
10:59He runs the Top of the Hill Foundation.
11:01He was kind of like the dad of the group at uni.
11:04Yeah.
11:05Don't tell him that.
11:06He'd hate it.
11:07He likes to think of himself as a high flyer.
11:11But he struggled with his studies, though.
11:13But it lit a fire under him, and he's worked his socks off since.
11:16I hope you've spoken to Marie, his wife.
11:20I've got a number if you need one.
11:22Don't worry.
11:22We're taking care of all that.
11:24I gather you and Freddie were close.
11:26Definitely.
11:28We text all the time.
11:29We have dinner whenever we can.
11:34He was best man at my wedding.
11:37We'll make this quick.
11:38We just want to get an idea of the timeline today.
11:41Una Weaver.
11:42She organized it and found this place.
11:44The reunion was her suggestion.
11:46We were here for an hour or so.
11:49I guess.
11:50Picked our rooms.
11:51Then went for a walk through the woods to the jolly farmer for lunch.
11:55Jessica Rawlinson.
11:56She's a solicitor in the city.
11:58I'm surprised she came.
12:00She does take us up a little less seriously than she used to.
12:02I just want to clarify.
12:03This is a witness statement, not an interview.
12:06Correct?
12:06That's correct.
12:08Right.
12:09After lunch, we walked back through the woods.
12:11We got back about five.
12:13Ryan a bit earlier.
12:14He had some games to set up.
12:16Una had arranged cocktails on the terrace.
12:20Oscar Nielsen.
12:20He works for Ryan's foundation in finance.
12:24He's sort of a hero-worshipped him since we were 18.
12:27He was expelled from uni ahead of the final exams.
12:31Plagiarism in his dissertation.
12:32There was a hard knock to recover from.
12:34Well, after dinner, Ryan had set one of his legendary treasure hunts.
12:38He's a brilliant games master.
12:40He used to throw these incredible parties when we were at university.
12:44He'd deck out the whole house with these, uh...
12:47Sorry.
12:49I'm rambling.
12:50Don't worry.
12:51Nearly there.
12:53Is there anything else we should know about today?
12:57Anything out of the ordinary?
12:59Any arguments or frictions within the group?
13:03No.
13:04No.
13:05Hmm.
13:06Not that I noticed.
13:07No.
13:13Oh.
13:15Stabbed in the back.
13:16What a cowardly way to do it.
13:18I've yet to hear of a noble way.
13:21Oh, hold on.
13:22Something's not right.
13:23You cannot see a clue from here, Judith.
13:25No way.
13:27Uh, Jason.
13:29How can I help you, Mrs. Potts?
13:30Um, the label on Freddy's jacket.
13:33What brand is it?
13:35Uh, it's a Greyheart.
13:37Oh, my father had a Greyheart jacket.
13:39Bespoke tailoring.
13:41Savile row.
13:42Hmm.
13:42Expensive.
13:43Exactly.
13:44But the stitching on the trousers is all over the place.
13:47Off the peg, I reckon.
13:49Thank you, Jason.
13:50You know, someone like Freddy, someone who owned clothes like that, surely they'd know that's
13:56not how you pair an outfit.
13:58Hmm.
13:58I stand corrected.
13:59No fingerprints on the knife.
14:01Helen thinks cause of death is most likely to be exsanguination.
14:04The blade completely severed the thoracic aorta, causing massive internal bleeding.
14:08He probably died almost instantly.
14:12Um, we'd best have it.
14:15Yeah.
14:15Yeah.
14:16I think we should pay Mr. Freddy Thatcher-Hugh's room a visit.
14:19Hey, forensics do have to sweep that room, so whatever you're scarpering off to do, just
14:24do it properly.
14:28Sir.
14:30Can you tell me where you were when Freddy was killed?
14:33I was in the parlour upstairs.
14:35It seemed like a good place to hide.
14:37Did you see anyone else?
14:39I saw Oscar.
14:40He was on that top corridor just before.
14:45It happened.
14:47Oscar was on the top floor.
14:50But I'm pretty sure there was someone outside the library.
14:54Yes, there was somebody by the library, um, couldn't tell you who, but, um, Bex was near.
15:01She might know.
15:02I came straight downstairs, but I didn't see anyone until I passed Jessica in the sitting
15:07room doorway.
15:07I just assumed everyone else was upstairs until Bex walked past.
15:16What do you think?
15:18That it's convenient everyone's got an alibi and that they're all corroborated by each other.
15:36Oh, you can't have been that stylish.
15:39My grandad had a pair like this and he used to wear clogs.
15:42Oh, sorry.
15:45What's happened?
15:47I've been trying to hire a builder for weeks, but I've been, I believe the term is, ghosted
15:52three times.
15:53Finally, someone who might be able to help.
15:56Easier to find a husband in Marlow than it is a builder.
15:58If he's any good, give me my number.
16:01So you can hire him or marry him?
16:02Hmm, time will tell.
16:05The bathroom.
16:17The bathroom.
16:30The mystery of the mismatched outfit is solved.
16:34I've got something.
16:36Come and have a look at this.
16:44No wood or coal?
16:46No, just paper.
16:47It looks like...
16:49Somebody's burned a book.
16:55You all gave me detailed accounts of the day, but no mention of how Freddy got so muddy
16:59he needed to change clothes.
17:05I'm sorry.
17:07It's just...
17:08There was a small incident on the way back.
17:12Hey, hey, I actually...
17:13It was my fault I accidentally kicked some mud up at Freddy.
17:18Are you kidding me?
17:19Oscar said he offered to pay for the dry cleaning, but Freddy, he overreacted.
17:25Got a bit shouty.
17:26Yeah.
17:28Wouldn't drop it.
17:29You are infected with failure.
17:31Freddy, they're trousers.
17:32Look, every part of your pathetic life, right?
17:33You've got no wife, you've got no kids, you've got barely any friends.
17:36Just a dull job.
17:37You know, one day the charm is going to run out and everyone will see what you really are.
17:41You're going to go too far, and you'll regret it.
17:47You told me he shouted.
17:49You didn't tell me you threatened him.
17:52None of you did.
17:54I just wanted to get through to him without him laughing at me.
17:57And it worked.
17:59Freddy actually apologised for the first time ever.
18:03I'm certainly not his biggest fan, but I didn't hurt him.
18:09Right.
18:10And none of you thought to mention this earlier.
18:11I know how it looks, but you don't know Oscar like we do.
18:15I mean, there's no way he could do something like this.
18:17Are you certain about that?
18:18Because earlier, it didn't sound like you were particularly close anymore.
18:21I'm not, but I know him.
18:24I mean, we've all known him since he was 18.
18:25It's not enough.
18:26Look, I've worked with Oscar for over a decade.
18:29He couldn't have killed Freddy.
18:32It wasn't meant to be a lie.
18:33It was just an omission.
18:36I really thought I'd be able to trust your word on this one.
18:39Anything else you're holding back, I suggest you tell us sooner rather than later.
18:56Anything else from the breakfast club?
18:58An argument this afternoon.
19:00Turns out they're not the tight unit they're purporting to be.
19:02Right, well, forensics are nearly done upstairs, and I've got the burnt pages from the fireplace ready for the lab.
19:07Great.
19:09Jason and Alice, I want you both here until uniforms come to relieve you.
19:12And double-check the cellar for any ways in or out.
19:15Garth.
19:15Garth.
19:19You're welcome to join the briefing tomorrow morning, but I have rules.
19:23I need you to keep your distance from Bex.
19:26At best, she's a witness.
19:27At worst, a suspect.
19:29Investigate as you have to, but you are only to talk to her as you would a suspect.
19:33She is not to help you with the case at all.
19:35Understood?
19:37Entitely.
19:38We'll see you in the morning.
19:39Right now.
19:42Coffee's on us.
19:44A couple of muffins wouldn't go amiss either.
19:47Blueberry, please.
20:02Well, no-one got in or out this way.
20:06Why does it feel like this wasn't the first person to die in this house?
20:10I mean, statistically, dozens have probably died in a house this age.
20:14Look, when you think about it, someone has died in most houses.
20:16Your flat is Victorian.
20:17They're over a century old.
20:18Yeah, this isn't helping.
20:19I thought you weren't scared.
20:21I'm not.
20:21Help!
20:22Open!
20:23Open!
20:24Get out!
20:33Open, please!
20:34Please!
20:36Hello?
20:38Hello?
20:40What's happened?
20:43Are you all right?
20:44I thought I heard footsteps. It sounded like they were coming from above.
20:47It's the attic. I opened it by accident earlier, and now it's locked.
20:51What's happening? Is everything all right?
20:54It's okay. You both go back to bed. We'll look into this.
20:57Did you hear the footsteps? Above.
20:59That was fast asleep.
21:00You've been through a lot tonight, Mrs Weaver.
21:02It's an old house with warping doors and faulty locks. It must happen all the time.
21:07Okay?
21:08Officers, check the whole house.
21:10I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.
21:14Okay. Thank you.
21:27Oh!
21:31First rule of a horror movie. Never go upstairs.
21:44Oh!
21:45Damn.
21:49Let's just assume it's mice.
21:52Huh?
21:53Yeah.
21:55Okay. I'm going down now. See you in a bit.
21:57Okay. Wait.
21:58Wait.
22:00Wait.
22:20Oh, good morning.
22:21We've thought about what you said, and obviously we have a vested interest in this case.
22:26But it just means we're more determined to solve it. In the right way.
22:31Good. So, what do we have?
22:33Uh, well, we've informed Marie Thatcher Hughes of her husband's death. Witnesses placed her
22:38in Bath. According to reports, it sounds like your standard marriage.
22:42Standard marriage? I never took you for such a romantic, Brendan.
22:46Hmm.
22:48We managed to track down the owner of the house, uh, Hector Bly, currently on a whiskey
22:53tour of the Highlands.
22:54All right for some.
22:55Yeah.
22:56And then after the trouser argument, we looked into Oscar Nilsson. But there's not even a
23:01parking ticket in his name. So, seems an unlikely culprit.
23:05Is there any information about further comings and goings from the house?
23:08Now, we checked the motion sensor security lights on the front and back lawn. The sensors
23:12were lost triggered at 5 or 7 p.m., which matches the time the group said they returned
23:16to the house.
23:17So, no one went in or out after that time?
23:20How's our layout looking?
23:21Oh, um, well, we got Freddie Thatcher Hughes' body in the library. And then Ryan Hill on
23:30the first floor. And then Oscar outside his bedroom on the second floor. Oh, and then
23:37downstairs, in the entrance hall, you've got Jessica Rawlinson and Rebecca Starling.
23:46Yeah, well, don't forget Una.
23:47Yeah.
23:48Una Weaver in the parlour.
23:51And then there's the mystery figure outside the library.
23:54Supposedly seen by two people. Did anything interesting crop up after we left last night?
24:00Well, it's probably nothing, but Mrs. Weaver thought she heard footsteps in the attic.
24:05We went to check it out, but there was nothing up there.
24:08You should hear the racket my pipes make. And that's not a euphemism. Houses make strange
24:13noises. It's a thing. Doesn't mean they're haunted.
24:17He's right. When you're scared, you hear what you want to hear. There was no one else in
24:23the house. All the evidence suggests it's one of the houseguests. But why risk killing
24:28Freddy with so few suspects? Surely the murderer would know that the investigation would focus
24:33on that small group. We saw how Freddy was killed. That wasn't premeditated. It was opportunistic.
24:41someone's story isn't adding up.
25:02Morning.
25:06We were just talking about when Freddy decided academia was boring and he wanted to be a TV presenter
25:11instead. Such a weird couple of months. Thank God he reconsidered. Who really thought those
25:16frosted tips made him look edgy? Yeah, until he went swimming and the chlorine turned them
25:21bright green. I hate this. The police pulled my room apart last night. They're just being thorough.
25:35What do you think happened? Someone just broke in and did that? Jesus. If it's wrong time,
25:42wrong place, that's hideous. Well, I'd rather that than the alternative.
25:50How long do you think they'll keep us here? Maybe you should check in with a colleague. Someone
25:56who specialises in this sort of thing. Check everything they're asking of us is above board.
26:00Oh, yes. I'll just reveal to the people I've been working with the last decade that I'm
26:04involved in a murder case. I mean, that'll keep the water cooler busy.
26:09I know these officers. Clearly.
26:12I'm not getting any special treatment, if that's what you're suggesting.
26:15Well, you've folded about Oscar and Freddy's argument pretty quickly. I bet you've told them
26:19who you think is capable of murder.
26:21I really cannot comprehend that anyone in this room could hurt Freddy. But if anyone can get
26:26to the bottom of it, that team can. We need to do everything we can to help them.
26:32Unless you've got something to hide.
26:34Of course not. No.
26:37Well, I'm suspect number one if I refuse to play along now, aren't I?
26:47We don't have to put it up.
26:49No, we've got to do this properly.
26:56Oh, it's my builder. Excuse me.
27:00Hello? Yes.
27:02Oh, what time?
27:05Oh, I see. Well, hopefully I will be.
27:11Apparently, he's going to do his best to pop by later, but he can't guarantee a time.
27:16Or that he'll even turn up.
27:17Well, there'll be no marrying him now, if that's his attitude.
27:22Judith.
27:24Look at this.
27:26There's words visible.
27:28The.
27:29Am.
27:31It is.
27:34Until.
27:38Demet.
27:39Anything else?
27:40Oh, wait a minute.
27:46Harker.
27:47It must have been Dracula that they burned in the fireplace.
27:50That's very impressive.
27:52Keanu Reeves films from the 90s.
27:54Basically, my specialist subject.
27:57You are a woman of many talents, Susie Harris.
27:59I think it might be time for us to find out why Freddie had such a strong dislike for gothic
28:06fiction.
28:08I've got the report back on Freddie's phone.
28:10A few snippy messages to colleagues, but nothing warranting murder.
28:13The one thing that did ring alarm bells, ten days before the reunion,
28:17Freddie received 12 missed calls, all from the same number.
28:20We traced it.
28:21Una Weaver's phone.
28:23Right, let's get over there now.
28:24Alice, Jason, keep looking into socials for the suspects.
28:26Gov.
28:27Gov.
28:33I haven't seen these before.
28:35Bex.
28:37Bex.
28:37Their presence.
28:38The police put more there once they'd finished searching.
28:41Advanced copies signed for each of us.
28:44Climbing to the top of the hill.
28:46By Ryan Hill.
28:48He means well.
28:50There's one missing.
28:52Freddie's copy isn't here.
28:53I'm assuming he got the same book.
28:56Yes, farewell.
28:57That'll be Tanika.
28:58This may seem odd, but does Dracula mean anything to you?
29:02He did his PhD in gothic literature.
29:04Maybe there's a connection.
29:06Something I could get caught.
29:07Brendan.
29:12I'm not helping them at all.
29:14I'm just doing the dishes.
29:23I know it doesn't sound it after what he said to Oscar, but Freddie lit up a room.
29:29If there was ever anything wrong, he was the first to whisk you off for drinks and dancing or some
29:35sort of adventure.
29:38Being his friend was so fun.
29:42Have you seen him much since you left uni?
29:45Not as much as I'd like.
29:47We went for lunch about five years ago when he was in Coventry for work.
29:51Other than that, it's basically Christmas and birthday messages each year.
29:56If that's the case, why did you repeatedly call him on the 16th?
29:59Hmm.
30:00Twelve missed calls.
30:01All from your number.
30:04I didn't realise it was twelve.
30:08He hadn't replied about whether he was coming.
30:11So I thought I'd call just to talk to him.
30:14But, uh, kept going to voicemail.
30:18So you bombarded him?
30:19Hmm?
30:20Why?
30:22If he wasn't here, it wouldn't have been perfect.
30:25Why did it have to be perfect?
30:28I just remembered how much fun we had and how I missed everyone, so...
30:33I decided to throw the reunion.
30:37I know it doesn't look good, but I just wanted Freddie here.
30:41Twelve calls would certainly suggest that.
30:44Is there anything else you want to tell us?
30:45I know.
30:46Oh.
30:49Actually, um...
30:49What is it?
30:50It's just...
30:51You found a burnt book?
30:53Hmm?
30:54Freddie came looking for matches before we went to lunch.
30:58I didn't even think to ask him why he needed them.
31:00I thought he'd started smoking again.
31:02But I should have asked him.
31:05Shouldn't I?
31:07Things like that never seem significant until afterwards.
31:10But, thank you.
31:13That's all you know?
31:14Yeah, that's everything.
31:24Well, that wasn't entirely convincing, was it?
31:26Mm-hmm.
31:35What's that?
31:37I, uh...
31:39I have to tell you something.
31:48So, Freddie's copy of Ryan's book could be in here somewhere.
31:52Assume so.
31:55Oh, Judith!
31:57You might want to see this.
32:05Times like this, I wish I could lip-read.
32:07Mm-hmm.
32:08Yeah.
32:08Una just pulled me aside, said Jessica was lying.
32:12She said earlier that she hadn't seen Freddie in years.
32:19Yep.
32:19But Una saw a photo of both of them at an alumni event a few months ago.
32:28Got it.
32:31What's she up to?
32:35Oh, yes, Bex!
32:38Colin's sending us a transcript.
32:39It sounds like there might be some incriminating photos of Jessica for us to track down.
32:44Oh, well done, Bex.
32:45Mm-hmm.
32:46And still managing to obey Tanika to the letter.
32:49If Jessica's been lying to the police about her relationship with Freddie, that changes everything.
32:54Right, you keep looking for the book.
32:56Mm-hmm.
32:56I'm going to find these photos.
32:59So.
33:01Dating.
33:02Hmm.
33:03That's a new decision.
33:04Ah, it's just a bit of fun.
33:06I mean, if I was taking it that seriously, I would not be booked into speed dating at the Churchill
33:11Tap this evening.
33:12Sounds like my idea of hell.
33:14Well, if nothing else.
33:15You always get a good story.
33:19Oh, yes.
33:21Easy.
33:22I got it.
33:25Oh.
33:28Jessica, may we have a word?
33:31I've already spoken to the police.
33:32If the DI wants to talk again, I'll call a lawyer and we can do this properly.
33:37Very well.
33:38Well, it seems you lied to the police.
33:41And as a legal professional with a reputation to uphold, we thought you might want to handle it discreetly.
33:47But we can always catch DI Mally before she leaves.
33:51Okay, wait.
33:52What are you talking about?
34:21I honestly don't know.
34:22I've got a lot of pictures.
34:23I've got a lot of pictures.
34:23Which means the only reason you found them is because somebody told you about them.
34:27Are you trying to throw me under the bus to shift the blame?
34:29That's not what we...
34:30Why did you lie about it?
34:31The same reason I backed up Oscar.
34:33It doesn't look good, does it?
34:35Nice to know no one will do the same for me.
34:37Someone died.
34:39No one should be backing anyone up.
34:41We're not accusing you of anything.
34:43No.
34:43Well, it doesn't feel that way.
34:49You weren't there, okay?
34:51It was creepy.
34:52I could walk around that place all night.
34:54Pitch black.
34:55It wouldn't bother me at all.
34:57I guess I'm just good at keeping my cool.
35:01It's unprofessional.
35:03It's a place of work.
35:05So, I've spoken to Judith.
35:07Jessica lied about when she last saw Freddie and Una knew about it and hid it from us.
35:11They're our priority.
35:12Let's push, see if they're holding anything else back.
35:16We have a bigger problem.
35:18Found this picture on social media.
35:20And Bex said she barely knew him.
35:28You didn't tell us about Freddie's argument with Oscar, and now I learn there's something else you're hiding.
35:32I told you everything I know.
35:34All the truth.
35:35This all looks a bit cosy for someone who said she barely knew him.
35:39Oh, that.
35:41When I came back from Italy, I met Freddie and he asked me out.
35:45But it was nothing.
35:46Really.
35:47We went on two dates.
35:49That was more than enough for me to know that I didn't want a third.
35:52All I learnt was that he's rude to waiters and he loves a Vesper martini.
35:57It was such a long time ago.
35:59You should have said.
35:59I had no intention of withholding anything.
36:02And there's nothing else, I promise.
36:04I just...
36:05didn't think.
36:07Look.
36:09I know it's been a stressful day.
36:11And I think it's clear that you didn't have anything to do with Freddie's death.
36:15But that's not going to stop me getting banned from hiring civilian advisors.
36:20Bex, I really thought I could rely on you.
36:23You can.
36:25Of course you can.
36:28Alice.
36:29Hmm?
36:31Check this.
36:33Freddie's credit card statement.
36:34He paid for a hotel room the evening of the alumni event.
36:39Well, maybe it was just a heavy night.
36:41According to his file, he lives on campus with his family.
36:44Why would he need a hotel room?
36:46Unless he was hiding something.
36:48Exactly.
36:48I called the hotel.
36:49And they don't have any CCTV that'll help.
36:51But they said the room was booked for two people.
36:55Freddie took the receipt.
36:56But a second person requested a copy for it later that week via email.
37:00The mystery guest?
37:01Could be.
37:02They're going to check in with the council and let me know.
37:04Nice.
37:06It's mainly just some loose panelling in here.
37:12This is the main bit I want to fix.
37:15Yeah.
37:16Just here.
37:17You see?
37:18No, this isn't.
37:19Is there a problem?
37:21Yeah, this isn't good.
37:23Excuse me?
37:26Yeah.
37:29Yeah.
37:31Yeah, just what I expected.
37:33Damp.
37:34This house has been in my family for over a century.
37:38We've never had damp.
37:39Oh, hidden killer, Mrs. Potts.
37:42Expensive to fix, but essential.
37:44I'm telling you, there is no damp.
37:51Ah, see, now, that sounds hollow.
37:53It sounds hollow because it is hollow.
37:57It's a cupboard.
38:01We didn't consider that.
38:06I'm sorry, you have to excuse me.
38:08There are places I need to be.
38:10Well, I haven't finished measuring up yet.
38:11I could just do with that.
38:13Time for that another day.
38:14Are you sure?
38:15Oh, okay.
38:16All right.
38:27Here we go.
38:31Right.
38:32Same rules apply.
38:33Ladies set tights.
38:35Man rotate on the...
38:41Walking dogs.
38:43Top job.
38:46I'm more of a cat person.
38:51To travelling.
38:52Oh.
38:57So, Glastow 2004 was definitely better.
39:01Yeah, 2011, at its moments.
39:032017, didn't think we'd even get tickets.
39:08Avocados.
39:09No, I'm sorry.
39:19Hello there.
39:21Well, well, well.
39:23I wasn't expecting this.
39:25I just came with it while I was dragged by a mate.
39:28It was basically forced.
39:30Oh.
39:31It was a wingman.
39:32It was just a supportive friend.
39:36Which friend?
39:37He's just getting a drink.
39:38Just over there.
39:39Where did he go?
39:40He's, um...
39:41Oh, right.
39:42Yeah, yeah.
39:42Over there.
39:43Yeah.
39:44Is this your first time?
39:48Gets easier.
39:50Oh, um, that's the work phone.
39:53Is it rude if I got that?
39:56Well, given we've got a murder to solve.
39:58Jessica.
40:00What?
40:01Freddie stayed at a hotel the night of the alumni event.
40:04Jason's just had confirmation that Jessica requested a copy of the hotel receipt.
40:08Oh.
40:09They were having an affair.
40:10Looks that way.
40:11Um, listen.
40:11I better get going.
40:14You coming?
40:16Absa-bloody-lutely.
40:17Come on, Luna.
40:18Come on, girl.
40:19Come on, girl.
40:19Now, that's what I call speed dating.
40:23All right, everybody.
40:25Here we go again.
40:28Four.
40:30Five.
40:33Six.
40:38Three.
40:40Four.
40:42Five.
40:43Six.
40:44Six.
40:45Seven.
40:56What are you doing here?
40:57I have a theory.
40:59Well, currently half a theory.
41:01I can't help you.
41:02If my involvement affected the conviction of Freddie's killer, I'd never forgive myself.
41:06To convict his killer, we have to catch them first.
41:10And for that, I need your help.
41:16So what exactly are we looking for?
41:18Anything that might be something.
41:20There are more windows on the outside of the house than on the inside.
41:24You think part of the house is hidden?
41:26Yes.
41:27And somewhere, there must be a way in.
41:31You say that as though it's the most natural thing in the world.
41:33Well, we used to hide priests.
41:35And the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in San Francisco had an entire prohibition floor that was hidden in the plans.
41:47Bex?
41:48No one thinks you're lying.
41:51We trust you.
41:54It doesn't feel like that.
41:58Tanika thinks I've been deliberately holding back information.
42:01But it wasn't like that.
42:03And the group think I'm talking to the police about them.
42:07You've lost one friend.
42:09And it's possible another friend killed him.
42:12You're in an awful position.
42:14You don't have to explain yourself.
42:15I do.
42:16Trying to prove you're innocent is much harder than you'd think.
42:19The more you protest, the more you look guilty.
42:23Hey.
42:25There's scratches on the floorboards.
42:29Goodness.
42:32Bex.
42:43Look.
42:47This doesn't look like an escape tunnel.
42:50Come on.
42:52Come on.
43:05Come on.
43:24It's still warm.
43:28We're not alone.
43:41We're not alone.
44:08We're not alone.
