00:15I thought Morris dancing was all handkerchiefs and kneebells.
00:20Traditionally, yes.
00:21But this, this is Dark Morris.
00:25It's anarchic cousin, much more subversive.
00:27It's called the legend of the knock-a-hole dragon.
00:31A fearsome beast is devouring the villagers, but no knight could slay it.
00:37Which one's Margot again?
00:38I'm guessing the dragon.
00:39No, she's one of the villagers that kills the beast with a poison pipe.
00:45She's been practicing for weeks, dancing around the office, trying to force-feed me pasties.
00:51Oh, I think that's her at the back.
00:53Oh, let's just watch, shall we?
00:54It's pretty obvious what's going on.
01:11Yeah, let it, bravo, excellent, excellent.
01:15Get his EpiPen.
01:17Someone help him, please.
01:20No, I'm not.
01:21It's not in the case.
01:22Where is it?
01:23Hurry!
01:30One morning in the month of June, down by a rolling river.
01:34There a weary child, no chance to stray, and he beheld his lover.
01:39Her cheeks were red, her eyes were brown.
01:42Her hair in ringlets hanging down.
01:44She got a lovely face without a frown, just as the tide was flowing.
01:56Looks like it was an allergic reaction.
01:58The paramedics gave him an epinephrine shot.
02:01They're just hoping he's got it in time.
02:03What was the allergic to?
02:05Latex.
02:05You know Marvellous, don't you?
02:07Oh, yes.
02:08Kindred Mariner.
02:09I bought my boat from you.
02:10Then let her drift out to sea like some janny fortnight.
02:14Lord alone knows how.
02:17Yes.
02:18Uh, sorry.
02:19Latex, you say?
02:20Yeah.
02:21Anything with rubber.
02:22His name's Craig.
02:23He's new to the side.
02:25But he warned us about his allergy as soon as he joined.
02:27Carries an EpiPen in case of emergencies.
02:30He showed us all how to use it.
02:32Right.
02:33So why wait for the medics?
02:34Because it's gone missing from its case.
02:37I saw Craig check it before the show.
02:38Are you saying someone stole it?
02:40Well, it didn't vanish on its own.
02:42Wait, but if someone took it, that means they knew Craig would have a serious reaction
02:46and they wanted to delay his treatment?
02:48Well, not with anything we use.
02:50It's been a right pain having to buy new costumes and masks.
02:54Make sure it's all latex-free.
02:56Yes, but that doesn't rule out them contaminating it later.
02:58Listen, let's gather everything up.
03:00Get it to forensics for analysis, please.
03:02Maybe he touched something with latex earlier on.
03:05No, Craig's allergy is type one.
03:07Any reaction happens the moment he comes into contact with it.
03:10So if someone intentionally treated it?
03:12They did so during the dance?
03:13I mean, literally the moment before he collapsed?
03:15It would take a few seconds, yeah.
03:17But we were all watching.
03:19So what have we met?
03:27What have we met?
03:29What have we met?
03:34The EpiPen helped, but he's not out of the woods yet.
03:38We're having to keep him sedated, give his body time to recover.
03:41But fingers crossed he'll be okay.
03:43Don't those tubes contain rubber?
03:45No, everything here is silicon or nitrile-based.
03:48Even my gloves.
03:50I've got a squishy in my pocket.
03:53Sorry, I bought it for you, for your headaches.
03:56It'll help you stress.
03:57I'm good, thanks.
03:58You keep it.
03:59Put it away.
04:00It's okay.
04:02It's polyurethane.
04:03But maybe don't touch him, just in case.
04:06Right, yes, no.
04:07Do you know when we might be able to question him?
04:11Maybe in a day or so.
04:12But until then, no visitors.
04:14Doctor's orders.
04:15Thanks, Lucy.
04:19I'm sorry, I just wanted to check he was okay.
04:22You're part of the Morris side, aren't you?
04:25One of the musicians?
04:26Yeah, I'm Holly.
04:29My husband Matthew's the side leader.
04:32Please don't tell him I was here.
04:37Well, the plot thickens.
05:00Where have you been?
05:03Out.
05:04Walking, trying to make sense of it all.
05:09Why are the police involved?
05:12They, uh, think it may have been deliberate, which is absurd.
05:17It was an accident.
05:22Hey.
05:25You need to forget about him.
05:29It's just you and me now.
05:36Come here.
05:41Fresh star, yeah.
05:55Yes, do stand in the doorway, Humphrey.
05:58That's enormously helpful.
06:00Sorry, Anne.
06:01Mm-hmm.
06:02Right, so...
06:03What do you think?
06:05Your writing's terrible when you're stressed.
06:08But I like the carpool idea.
06:09Mm-hmm.
06:10How would that work in practice?
06:11Not a clue.
06:12But you've put here it's a cost saving of £5,000.
06:16Yeah?
06:16Do you think it should be more?
06:18I just need to show budget cuts that match one of the team's salary.
06:23Then I can argue that I don't need to let anyone go at all.
06:27Well, what if you go paperless?
06:29No.
06:30But writing notes on scraps of paper, it's how I work.
06:35I suppose I could write things on my sleeve.
06:38I'll keep thinking.
06:39Good idea, though.
06:40Great.
06:41Yeah, thanks.
06:42Love you.
06:43See you later.
06:46Bye, Anne.
06:48Thanks for breakfast.
06:51If he gets under my feet any more, I could wear him with slippers.
07:06Why are you putting marvellous up there?
07:08He's as daft as a brushed owl, but he's not an allergy, Psycho.
07:12And neither am I.
07:13We can't rule anyone out at the moment.
07:16You play the villager who poisoned him.
07:18You had access to his epi case.
07:20If I can find a motive, you're my prime suspect.
07:23Hmm.
07:24Morning, Kelby.
07:25Dzień dobry.
07:28Sorry.
07:29I'm trying to learn Polish.
07:31Dzień dobry means good morning.
07:34It's a really hard language.
07:36Which you're attempting.
07:38Why?
07:39Oh.
07:44Her name's Agnieszka.
07:47We met online.
07:49She's a PE teacher at an orphanage near Gdansk.
07:53Is that why the new aftershave, so she can smell you from here?
07:57Ignore her.
07:58She looks lovely.
08:00Almost too good to be true.
08:01I know.
08:02I'm a lucky guy.
08:04Morning, all.
08:06What's that new air freshener?
08:09I'm going to call forensics.
08:11You've had some more messages from that Mr Smith at the hub.
08:15He's going to start stalking you soon.
08:16Yes, yes.
08:17I'll talk to him later.
08:19Any update on our Morris victim, Craig Fields?
08:22Still unconscious, but stabilised.
08:23So it's looking more hopeful.
08:25The side are really pleased.
08:26Holly Willis in particular?
08:28There have been rumours, I can't lie.
08:31I mean, I wouldn't kick Craig out of bed if he wanted to get cosy under my duvet.
08:35A little focus, Margot, please.
08:37What facts do we know about him?
08:40Well, he's a carpenter and joiner by trade.
08:42He bought a damaged boat off Marvelous, which he's living on at the boatyard while he's fixing it up.
08:47He's planning on sailing around the world when it's done.
08:51Wait.
08:52This damaged boat?
08:54It's not the Lily Bond, is it?
08:56You better hope not.
08:57Otherwise, Esther will slap your photo up on that board and all.
09:01Craig doesn't sound like your typical Morris dancer.
09:03Which is what, exactly?
09:05Well, you've all met Marvelous, right?
09:08He might be a vaky oddball, but he's got a heart of gold.
09:13Same as Craig, who, it turns out, has done Morris before.
09:17He had a lot of fancy ideas which Matthew wasn't impressed with.
09:22Er, Matthew Willis, side leader?
09:23They're called the Squires.
09:25Squires?
09:26Squires?
09:26It's a big Willis family tradition which Matthew felt Craig was usurping.
09:31Is that why the changes, the shift to dark Morris, was that all down to Craig?
09:36Yeah.
09:37We put it to the vote.
09:39And Craig won.
09:40Even Holly voted for it.
09:42Ouch.
09:43Is that when the rumour started?
09:45Pretty much.
09:46Holly.
09:46They used to jam together, composing music for the knuckle hole.
09:51Craig carved her a wooden table pipe.
09:56Matthew's face when he gave it to her.
09:58You want a motive?
10:00I'd start right there.
10:01I think we need more than just making someone a recorder.
10:04Yes, let's not rush to assumptions.
10:07There are motives other than jealousy to consider.
10:10So let's look into Craig's finances and background, please, Margaret.
10:13Lab report says there's no trace of latex on any of the staffs, masks or costumes.
10:20Yet.
10:21Craig collapsed mid-dance.
10:23So how has his allergy triggered unnoticed?
10:25We need someone to have filmed it.
10:30I do know someone who recorded it on their phone.
10:34Excellent.
10:34Let's get a copy of that before they delete it.
10:36Really?
10:37Yes, please.
10:39Okay.
10:39I did a sweep of the crime scene.
10:42I found a sweet wrapper.
10:45Mm-hmm.
10:46A feather of some sort.
10:48And 13 cigarette butts.
10:53Because like you say, we can't assume it's irrelevant.
10:57Quite right, Kelby.
10:58The smallest detail may prove pivotal.
11:03Strawberry chew.
11:05Oh, interesting.
11:08There was no feather of this kind on the Morris costumes, so...
11:14What bird does this belong to?
11:20No wonder.
11:24The holy grail of golf is something called an eagle, apparently.
11:28Or albatross.
11:31How do I look?
11:32Like a lawsuit waiting to happen.
11:35Please don't swing that in here.
11:37Are they Dad's clubs?
11:38Yes.
11:40Lance Kendrick, who's chair of the Sports and Culture Committee, asked if I played so naturally.
11:46I said yes.
11:48Because?
11:49Well, they're allocating seats to all the new councillors and I don't want to get stuck on the Committee of
11:53Strategic Works.
11:55I thought if I play around with Lance, he might invite me on board.
12:02You said play around with him.
12:05Oh.
12:06I knew you meant golf.
12:08Well, next time, I'll phrase it more carefully.
12:13Oh!
12:15Wish me luck.
12:16Let him win.
12:17You'll be fine.
12:23If we don't sell all these, can I take some home from Mum tonight?
12:27Help soften her up before I tell her about my travel plans.
12:29She'll be fine about it.
12:30Well, I'm hoping she might miss me a bit.
12:33Of course she will.
12:35And it will make the short time you have left together all the more precious.
12:38She'll spoil you rotten.
12:40You have met my mum, right?
12:59Esther!
13:00Hi!
13:01You wanted to see me.
13:02Did you want to book in another massage?
13:03No.
13:04Last night you were filming that Morris dance.
13:07I need a copy of the footage.
13:09It may have information we can use.
13:11Oh.
13:11Sure.
13:12Yeah.
13:13No problem.
13:15Sorry.
13:16Do you mind if I...
13:17Yeah.
13:17It should be in the gallery.
13:20Hello, Gordon Van.
13:22Yeah, Sandra.
13:23We've got you in for 10.30.
13:25Okay.
13:26We'll see you then.
13:27Okay.
13:27Bye.
13:28Oh.
13:29Sorry.
13:30So many photos.
13:32New man syndrome.
13:33I expect you were the same, right?
13:37Archie told me you guys used to date.
13:41Briefly.
13:42It wasn't a big deal.
13:44Quick fling.
13:45Nothing major.
13:46Yeah.
13:46No.
13:47That's what he said.
13:48Right.
13:49Oh, it's not a problem.
13:50It's actually quite a relief.
13:52You know that it wasn't my massage technique making you so tense the other day.
13:56No.
13:56That was more about work stressing me out, not Archie.
13:59That's long gone.
14:01In fact, I was the one who ended it.
14:03Great.
14:05Ah.
14:06Here.
14:07Sorry.
14:08No rest for the wicked.
14:10Golden Van.
14:12Hold on one sec.
14:13All done.
14:14Thanks.
14:16Nice to see you.
14:18Yep.
14:20Was that for the hot stone?
14:24It's from Archie's new girlfriend.
14:26It's not great quality.
14:28Why can't you just stay still?
14:30I think she's dancing.
14:31It's hard not to.
14:32It's a really catchy tune.
14:34And how long before Craig collapses?
14:36It's round about here.
14:38Ruin my star moment.
14:41I'm like Marga Fontaine with that pie.
14:45Just saying.
14:47Okay.
14:48All right, everyone.
14:49Watch closely.
14:50Here we go.
14:52Any second now.
14:54Just a minute.
14:56Oh, God.
14:57Not my drink.
14:59Here, hold this.
14:59It's all over my top.
15:00Oh, for God's sake.
15:01We missed it.
15:02Oh, turn the camera.
15:04I think it's over.
15:05Was that it?
15:05No.
15:06Something's wrong.
15:07Look.
15:08Holly's the fairest person to help Craig.
15:11But who's that bringing his epi case over?
15:19Who's your prime suspect now?
15:23And here.
15:24Wait.
15:24Please, Marvellous.
15:25Hold your horses.
15:26Shoulders back.
15:27Stand up straight.
15:28Full energy, please.
15:30Here we go.
15:31And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
15:35Smile.
15:36Out.
15:37Turn.
15:37Round.
15:38Wait.
15:38Stop.
15:39What are you doing?
15:41Aside from humiliating myself just so I can dance with this adorable woman,
15:46I have no idea.
15:47It's lunchtime.
15:49There's a scrumpy with my name on it at Kitty J's.
15:53Why have you dragged us all here for this whip pot?
15:56We're performing in Sulcombe at the weekend.
15:58And since we don't have a dragon anymore, we need to practice a new dance.
16:03Feels wrong doing anything while Craig's still unconscious.
16:06Right.
16:06Let's wait Lee's back.
16:08I want to bash a big stick about not wave a white hanky like I'm trying to surrender.
16:13No one is more concerned about Craig than me.
16:16But this isn't about him.
16:18It's about returning to our roots.
16:20Honouring our commitments.
16:22And doing as your squire says.
16:25Hello.
16:27Sorry, music stopped.
16:29Hope we're not interrupting.
16:30Not at all, Inspector.
16:31I'm explaining how Morris Danson's celebration of community.
16:37Of spring and light.
16:39Dark Morris is a...
16:40Well, that's a different path.
16:42And we need to make a choice.
16:44You can't have both.
16:48Holly.
16:49Holly, we're rehearsing.
16:51I need a vape.
16:52Take five, everyone.
16:55Oh, that's fine anyway.
16:57We'll need to speak to you all privately.
16:59We'll also need to see the dragon dance again.
17:01I believe Margot mentioned it.
17:03I told Morris to bring in some spare sticks.
17:05Her wish is my command.
17:07Excellent.
17:08Marvelous.
17:10Matthew.
17:10If you could get everything set up.
17:13I need to talk to Holly.
17:14Okay.
17:17I can't do this.
17:19I'm gonna...
17:19I'm gonna skedaddle.
17:21Yeah, tell her my mill.
17:22Dodgy Curry.
17:23Don't get all choppity.
17:25Stay put.
17:26Keep stum.
17:26You ain't done nothing wrong.
17:29Now breathe.
17:33You wanna gherkin' with that?
17:35I pickle my own.
17:37Very tasty.
17:40So you're, um...
17:42You're done with Dark Morris?
17:43Well, I think one foray was enough.
17:46Given the result and consequences.
17:49Understandable.
17:51Although I did like the masks.
17:53The way they were used as a disguise
17:56to hide the dancers' true identities
17:58and stop them being found out.
18:01Historically speaking.
18:03Obviously.
18:05Well, you've done your research, Inspector.
18:08Hmm.
18:09Although I suppose
18:11if Craig's allergy was triggered deliberately
18:15and someone still using their mask
18:18in much the same way.
18:20And if it was just an accident,
18:23as the rest of us believe,
18:25then you'd no crime to investigate.
18:31I would love to believe that.
18:33If only I could explain the EpiPen.
18:39You were the one who got Craig's EpiKit.
18:44Do you have any idea why the pen wasn't in there?
18:50Must have fallen out.
18:52Been mislaid.
18:55So...
18:56another accident?
19:00It's the simplest explanation.
19:07Craig was...
19:09a popular member of the side.
19:12If a tad headstrong,
19:15like myself.
19:16Hmm.
19:17It caused him issues at the start,
19:19but...
19:20I soon learned to...
19:23to embrace the challenges he offered.
19:27Why would anyone want to hurt him?
19:31What if he was too popular?
19:35With somebody's wife?
19:39I can assure you, Inspector.
19:42Holly takes her wedding vows as seriously as I do.
19:53Quite years ago.
19:55Guess that's the way life is.
19:57You can resist temptation for so long
19:59and then...
20:00realise you've been fooling yourself the whole time.
20:04Is that how it was with Craig?
20:07Oh.
20:08You heard the gossip then.
20:10It's not true.
20:13We weren't having an affair.
20:14I...
20:14I wouldn't.
20:17I love my husband and...
20:19my kids.
20:21They're my life.
20:23Why would I deputise that?
20:25For what?
20:27Sex.
20:29It's not worth it.
20:31Nothing is.
20:33Oh, God.
20:35I'm sorry.
20:37I just wish Craig...
20:39hadn't come here.
20:41It's...
20:42It's changed everything.
20:46You can't help who you fall in love with.
20:48But you can decide what you do about it.
20:52You can...
20:53choose to stop seeing them,
20:55even if it makes you really unhappy.
20:57You have to.
20:59It still hurts, though.
21:02For better...
21:03Or for worse.
21:05You have to do the right thing.
21:07For the sake of your family.
21:11Is that you talking?
21:12Or Matthew?
21:13You...
21:16This isn't his fault.
21:18It's mine.
21:23You do realise this is pointless.
21:26We don't have a dragon.
21:27Well, I'm volunteering to take his place.
21:31Don't worry, I've done Scottish country dancing.
21:34At school.
21:35Best Highland Flame.
21:37Under-15s.
21:38He won a medal.
21:40How is any of this relevant?
21:41Well, I need to experience the dance from Craig's point of view.
21:45Assess his interaction with the side.
21:46Before the side couldn't even make the rehearsal.
21:49We have jobs.
21:51We can't teach you the whole dance in a lunch hour.
21:53No, no, no. Not the whole dance.
21:54Just the last part before Craig collapsed.
21:58Who remembers when that was?
22:00It was just as I go to get the poison pie.
22:03I'll walk him through it.
22:04Fine.
22:05If we go from the dragon's battle...
22:08Inspector, you stand in the middle.
22:11Yes, all right.
22:12The others all around.
22:13Esther, are you ready?
22:15I'm waiting.
22:17Music maestro, please.
22:35Sorry, sorry. A little bit rusty.
22:37Don't stop. We're almost there.
22:42Sorry, I wasn't expecting that.
22:43I would have peeled away to get the pie and inspect her now.
22:47Now what?
22:49Right, everyone, stop!
22:51I, uh, need to mark...
22:54all your final...
22:56positions.
23:00Are we done now?
23:01Uh, no. One more thing.
23:04Margot, when you peel off to get the poison pie,
23:07what was the prop you used?
23:09A pork pie.
23:10A real one?
23:11Yeah. The fake ones contain rubber.
23:14Did Kilby collect up that pie for testing?
23:16Because I've read with a latex allergy that...
23:18Now, there are certain foods that can also trigger a reaction.
23:22No.
23:22Bob ate it while we were waiting for the ambulance.
23:28I was hungry.
23:29Craig fell down before I even collected it.
23:32And it never went anywhere near him.
23:34And I was much further back than this.
23:36You dropping the staff, it threw me.
23:38I was...
23:40more... here.
23:42I think.
23:47Why are you looking at me?
23:49I never hurt him, I swear!
23:58Thanks.
23:59Sorry.
24:01It's too hot in there.
24:02Had a bit of a panic attack.
24:04It's okay.
24:05Take your time.
24:13I like Craig.
24:14He's a great guy.
24:17He gave me this fitness routine and a diet plan.
24:20Helped me lose weight.
24:21I feel lucky to know him.
24:23Did he charge you for that advice, Bob?
24:25No, of course not. Why?
24:26Craig's bank details show you recently made two payments into his account.
24:32Both for £4,900.
24:35Just under the £5,000 threshold, banks are required to report.
24:40It was an investment.
24:42We were going into business together.
24:44What kind of business?
24:45I don't know.
24:46I mean, um...
24:48It's not happening.
24:50Craig backed out. He told me he changed his mind.
24:53But he kept your money.
24:55Well, he'll repay it. He has to.
24:58What if he doesn't?
25:00What will you do to, er...
25:02Persuade him?
25:03I ain't gonna kill him, am I?
25:07How could he pay me back then?
25:09Except Craig isn't dead.
25:10So, triggering his allergy would serve as a pretty effective warning.
25:15I wouldn't.
25:16I've never hurt anyone in my life.
25:19I'm a boring accountant who lives in a rented bedsit.
25:22It's why I gave Craig the money in the first place.
25:24So I could change things.
25:26And then he changes his mind.
25:29And says he doesn't want to do it anymore.
25:31Having spent all my money, now that ain't right.
25:34And he knows it.
25:43Come on, Bob.
25:50What was the money for, Bob?
25:52This business you'd planned?
25:53What did Craig not want to do anymore?
25:57No comment.
26:07What have you and Bob been up to?
26:10Nothing, my sweet. I swear.
26:12My sweet's a strawberry chew.
26:15Answer the question.
26:16The day you joined the police was the day I turned my back on anything disreputable.
26:21As a mark of respect.
26:24You told me you aided fishing.
26:26Ever since that incident with the lobster.
26:29Which you have promised never to mention again.
26:31That's all Craig's gear.
26:33He borrows my van from time to time.
26:35Just dump the sticks on top.
26:40What a flaming hell is this?
26:42Now give that ear a hole.
26:46Let's pretend you never saw that.
26:49If you've got nothing to hide, we'll just show it to the inspector and you can explain it to him.
26:54No need to get savage on me.
26:56Whatever you're thinking, all them cramby doubts, they're wrong.
27:02Prove it.
27:07It's my bad.
27:08I forgot it was in the van when I loaded up the Morris sticks.
27:13What do you use it for?
27:15Best waterproof in there is, every boatyard has some.
27:19Isn't that a bit risky with Craig about?
27:21He don't use it on his boat and I keep it locked in my shed.
27:26It was only in the van because I lost my last lot in a break-in.
27:30I had to go to the depot, buy some more.
27:32Somebody stole it?
27:33Kids, probably.
27:34I had a camera on the shed and they broke that too.
27:37I asked Craig if he saw anything and he said no.
27:43Does Bob ever visit your boatyard, Marvellous?
27:47Bob told us he was going into business with Craig.
27:51He paid him a lot of money.
27:52Most of which Craig then paid to you.
27:56That's right.
27:57To buy the boat he's rebuilding and he got a fair price.
28:02You want to look at my books?
28:04Go ahead, I got nothing to hide.
28:06This business that they were planning, were you involved in that too?
28:11Craig asked me, I said no.
28:16Out of respect for that goddess, who I still revere to this day.
28:27Are you taking medication we're not aware of, Marvellous?
28:30My only drug is love.
28:32And my only crime is not telling Margo how I felt till it was too late.
28:40So this Bob and Craig business was illegal then?
28:43It didn't happen and it won't.
28:45Not now that Craig's found the love of his life too.
28:49You mean Holly?
28:50I told him, if he were lucky enough to find his soul mate, he should fight for him.
28:55And that's why Craig's staying and why the bar business ain't happening.
29:00Does Holly know Craig's staying?
29:02He told everyone in the side during rehearsals.
29:05So Matthew knew as well?
29:07Should have kept my big garb shut, shouldn't I?
29:11We need to find out what business Bob and Craig were planning
29:15and even more urgently, who stole Marvellous's liquid rubber.
29:19Unless he's lying, of course, to cover why it was hidden in his van.
29:23Hmm.
29:37Hello, house owner.
29:38Oh, gosh, it's finally happening.
29:40It's amazing.
29:41I know!
29:42I'm online shopping already.
29:44I have this urge to buy furniture.
29:46What do you think about hanging eggchairs?
29:48Have you been sunbathing?
29:50Because I think you might have sunstroke.
29:53But we could buy a hammock for the garden and a duck house for Selwyn.
29:57Oh, he'd love that.
29:59And Mum will be just as pleased.
30:01It's driving her mad having us there the whole time.
30:03Well, look, I hope she knows how much we appreciate it.
30:06Let's say it with wine and a takeaway.
30:08She really likes Thai.
30:09Chicken satay and green curry coming up.
30:14Martha?
30:15Sorry, it's just hit me.
30:19We're really doing this, aren't we?
30:21It's a big new adventure.
30:23I'm glad it's with you.
30:25Wouldn't have it any other way.
30:27Bye.
30:32What's that, Mr. Smith?
30:34He's been calling non-stop.
30:36I'm running out of excuses.
30:38No, Kelby, don't worry.
30:39It's okay.
30:40I'll deal with it.
30:41I have exactly the answer he needs.
30:43Any luck identifying that bird, Feather?
30:45Oh, yes.
30:46And it's not a bird.
30:48See, I think it's part of a fishing fly.
30:51What do you reckon?
30:57That's scrumpy at Kitty J's.
30:59There's a glass with my name on it.
31:01I have to work if you fancy it.
31:05Ho, ho, ho, ho!
31:07It's the perfect weapon.
31:10A metal fishing hook, coated in latex, one scratch, insta-claps.
31:14But neither Bob, Marvellous, or Matthew got close enough to Craig to be able to scratch him.
31:19If the hook was attached to the staff, it might have done.
31:22But that would have left latex traces on the staff and there weren't any.
31:27Margot, you said there were fishing rods in Marvellous's van.
31:31A fishing line attached to a staff would be near invisible at night.
31:35Is he still outside?
31:36No, he's gone now.
31:38Kelby, can you go to his boatyard and bring back that broken security camera?
31:42We need to get it fixed to find out if someone stole that latex as he claims.
31:46He wouldn't have lied about that.
31:48Then why won't he tell us what Craig and Bob were up to?
31:50I'm getting an answer to that tonight.
31:53You just leave it with me.
31:56It can have been a fishing line. It's too haphazard and noticeable.
32:01Well, let's watch and find out.
32:16Inspector.
32:17Not now, please, Margot.
32:22So, not just me you ignore, but your staff too.
32:24Oh, interesting.
32:25Mr Smith, I was about to call.
32:29I thought we should FaceTime instead.
32:31Trim the fat in person.
32:32Um, Esther, Margot, this is Mr Smith.
32:35Superintendent Woods, replacement at the hub.
32:37If you're not too busy, Sergeant, my battle elixir for the war against crime is a decaf soy latte.
32:42I believe the ones at the ten mile are excellent.
32:45Well, I am actually working.
32:46I'm sure you can expand your bandwidth to multitask me up a biscotti as well.
32:51Thank you. Inspector, shall we?
32:53Oh, yeah, of course. It's that way.
32:58Um...
33:02Flat white for me. No sugar, thanks.
33:07Now, you have caught me on the hop a bit.
33:09Uh, and I will get Margot to do a proper spreadsheet.
33:15But I think these ideas clearly show how we can save enough money to keep funding all our staff.
33:21You see, this is the problem.
33:23You're trying to boil the ocean.
33:25Instead, focus on deliverables and close the loop.
33:28Which member of staff are you going to lose?
33:30Well, see, that's my point.
33:31I thought we could solve the problem in a more people-friendly manner.
33:34We're downsizing for the future.
33:36Not me.
33:37I'm juggling balls non-stop throughout the day.
33:40If your sergeant has time to get coffee, then how relevant is she?
33:44Well, that's hardly fair. You are her superior. She was just doing what you are.
33:47We need blue skies, Inspector. Not sheep.
33:51And it's your job to dance the needle in that direction.
33:57Understood?
34:10Do you ever worry you drink too much caffeine?
34:12Says the man who sells alcohol for a living.
34:15They say wine has its health benefits.
34:17It can be therapeutic at times.
34:20I'm more of a beer person myself.
34:22That's not how I remember it.
34:24Well, that's nostalgia for you.
34:26Everyone looks better in hindsight.
34:44Oh, yeah.
34:45Oh, my.
34:47Raktuku.
34:49Help me.
34:50Whatever.
34:52Damn it.
34:56You're right, Esther.
34:58It wasn't a fishing line.
34:59It must be something else.
35:00What did Mr Smith want?
35:02What?
35:02Why did he send me off like that?
35:04Um, no reason.
35:08It's just his manner.
35:10He's lucky I didn't deck him.
35:12Yeah, it's good restraint, Sergeant.
35:13Well done.
35:15Kelby, is that marvellous security camera?
35:18Shouldn't it be with tech support?
35:19Oh, they've got a backlog of cases.
35:21It's going to take them weeks.
35:23So, I thought I'd have a go myself.
35:26It's a bit, uh,
35:28Zwozrony, mind.
35:31Uh, uh, complicated.
35:33It's Polish.
35:34Agnieszka called me it last night.
35:36She said it was a compliment.
35:38New girlfriend.
35:40Don't ask.
35:42Very good.
35:44Oh, I'm going home.
35:46I can't hear that music again.
35:47It's like an earworm.
35:48You know, the answer must be here somewhere.
35:50I'm just not seeing it.
35:52Craig's allergy was triggered by someone unseen
35:55while we were watching it.
35:57How?
36:00Maybe the latex was on Margot's strawberry chew.
36:07You've cracked the case, Sherlock.
36:11Remind me.
36:13What was my motive?
36:15You've admitted fancying Craig.
36:17Hmm?
36:18He fancied Holly.
36:19Oh.
36:20It's a classic case of unrequited love demanding payback.
36:25Night, all.
36:29If I ever do decide to kill someone, she'll be the first to know.
36:45How on earth did this happen?
36:47Well, it wasn't me.
36:48It was a golf cart.
36:49Nearly ran me over on the fairway.
36:51I'm lucky it wasn't my leg.
36:53Did you at least get the committee you wanted?
36:56Sports and culture.
36:58Sadly, no.
36:59One look at my golf swing told Lance,
37:02my talents lie elsewhere.
37:04Oh, you're strong on culture, though.
37:06I certainly gave that cart driver some Anglo-Saxon advice.
37:14Hi!
37:16You've got a house!
37:18I know, and I bring Ty Takeaway in to celebrate.
37:20We can now head over tomorrow and start renovating.
37:22Oh, it's very exciting.
37:24Have we decided who you're going to use?
37:26I think we'll just do it ourselves.
37:27Yeah.
37:28Oh, you'll need a professional.
37:30Make sure it's done properly.
37:32No offence, Humphrey.
37:35What about that Morris leader?
37:37Matthew.
37:38Isn't he an architect?
37:39Yes, and a suspect in the case for investigating.
37:43Is that the allergy one?
37:45There's a Mr. Smith was talking about that on the golf course.
37:48He's not convinced it's a genuine crime.
37:52I'm sorry, what?
37:54Mr. Smith?
37:55Yes, from the hub.
37:57He was one of our group.
37:58Very charming.
37:59And a very good golfer.
38:01Oh, so that's one of the balls he's been juggling, is it?
38:05He's very concerned about you.
38:06And about your whole team, in fact.
38:09He's worried you're wasting police time investigating something that could be an accident.
38:14Well, it wasn't.
38:15And I'm not.
38:20I'll get her some plates and glasses.
38:22Oh, it's very exciting.
38:24Can't wait to see it tomorrow.
38:26Me neither.
38:26I'm sorry about your committee.
38:29Oh, never mind.
38:30I'm sure I'll find some other way to serve the community.
38:37She doesn't know about Mr. Smith.
38:39Don't be cross with her.
38:41I'm not.
38:41I'm angry at him.
38:43They're questioning my team's work ethic while he's off playing golf.
38:46Not a genuine crime.
38:48Craig's allergy was triggered deliberately.
38:50I know it.
38:54I just don't know by who.
38:58Or how.
39:12I thought you'd promised I wouldn't be a fishing widow anymore.
39:14Why?
39:15I'm just sorting everything out to sell on eBay.
39:20These are broken.
39:22Don't worry.
39:23I'll make sure they're disposed of safely.
39:45You're not.
39:47It's not a date.
39:48I know that.
39:51It's you and me having a drink.
39:53And that made me feel...
39:58Florid.
40:02I'll put them on one of my ex-husband's graves.
40:06Now.
40:07Deal the tiles.
40:10Cheers.
40:10One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
40:12One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
40:14Go.
40:24Well, come on then.
40:25The suspense is killing me.
40:27What do you mean?
40:28You've cooked dinner.
40:30Bought more beer.
40:31There's muffins for afters.
40:32This is teenage code for I've done something or I'm about to.
40:36Oh, my God.
40:37You're so cynical.
40:42And right.
40:43Obviously.
40:45Okay.
40:46So, I've put together an itinerary.
40:53I want to go travelling.
40:54Load up my backpack, get a round-the-world ticket and have some adventures.
40:59I've been talking to Martha and she's been really encouraging.
41:03Wait.
41:04You told Martha before me?
41:06She's been giving me loads of extra shifts so I can build up my savings.
41:11I've got enough for a ticket already.
41:15I have to do this, mum, soon or I'll never do it at all.
41:21So, who's stopping you?
41:23You are.
41:25I just wonder what you'll do, whether you'll be all right.
41:27Of course I will.
41:29I just, I don't want you to be lonely, especially since you've broken up with Archie.
41:35Oh, please.
41:36He still likes you, you know.
41:38Well, I'm a very lovable person.
41:41You are.
41:46I'm going to miss you.
41:49So, I'll phone all the time, wherever I am.
41:52Better had.
41:53And I promise I'll be back.
41:57Are you sure you're okay about it?
41:59If it's what you want?
42:00Yes, great.
42:02Go for it.
42:02Hmm.
42:25Where are fours?
42:28Why is Bob watching us like that?
42:31I don't know.
42:33Maybe you can't believe that dreams do come true.
42:36Hmm.
42:39Okay.
42:41Time to wake up.
42:43Because I'm here for one reason.
42:45And that's to save your sorry sentimental ass.
42:49You're a suspect in an attempted murder investigation.
42:52So, you need to tell me what Craig and that bloomer mort were planning.
42:56Or we are never, ever going to sit here and drink scrumpy again.
43:01Got it.
43:04Smuggling?
43:04Yeah.
43:05That was Craig and Bob's new business?
43:08Apparently, Craig built secret compartments into the boat's hull.
43:12Marva said he'd show you, but only because it was a plan that never happened.
43:16Well, because Craig fell in love and vetoed the idea, we really have to talk to him.
43:20Is there any word yet from the hospital?
43:21Lucy said he'll be conscious later today.
43:24She'll call me, soon as.
43:25Sir, I'm getting somewhere with this camera.
43:27I should have it fixed soon.
43:29Right.
43:29We'll be at the boatyard.
43:30Let us know when you do.
43:32Thank you, Kirby.
43:44I was blackmailed to show you these.
43:47I want that on record.
43:48Right.
43:50And what contraband were they planning to hide?
43:52That's the limit of my knowledge.
43:54I'm showing you an empty space and it's going to stay that way.
43:58You can't arrest people for an idea they've decided against.
44:04Understood.
44:08Thank you, Marvellous.
44:21It's all a bit Mary Celeste.
44:24You'd think he'd have something of Holly's here.
44:27Photo, or a bit of clothing.
44:32You know, it's a little big forehead, don't you think?
44:38Kelby.
44:40Hello?
44:42Alright, we're coming now.
44:44Esther?
44:45Kelby's fixed the camera.
44:46Says we need to see it right away.
44:52Okay, so I've set it up to play from just before the break-in.
44:56Is there no sound?
44:57Not on this model, but look.
45:08Oh, that's not good.
45:19I went there to beg him to leave.
45:23I said I could cope with being unhappy as long as my children felt safe and loved instead of abandoned.
45:35I didn't know Matthew had followed me.
45:37What happened?
45:39What happened after Matthew smashed the camera?
45:41Did he go into the shed, take the latex?
45:43No.
45:44He just left.
45:45He didn't take anything.
45:47Holly.
45:47He didn't take it.
45:48He wouldn't.
45:49You don't understand.
45:51Please, I have nothing else to say.
45:54You have to go.
45:58We will need to talk to Matthew about this incident.
46:01Yes, and Craig too, when he's fully conscious.
46:03Is he allowed visitors?
46:05No.
46:06Not yet.
46:07Soon.
46:09Benji!
46:11Benji!
46:12Can you stop that?
46:13You put the pipe down, it's not a toy.
46:16Sorry.
46:22DS Williams.
46:29Hi.
46:35Great.
46:36Okay.
46:38It's Lucy.
46:40Craig's awake and responsive.
46:42She says we can question him.
46:44Ask her if he has a cut.
46:46I'm sorry.
46:47On his head.
46:48Some kind of graze.
46:50What?
46:52A cut on the back of his head.
46:54Ask her to check now, please, if she can.
46:58D.I. Goodman would like you to check to see if Craig has a cut or graze on the back
47:03of his head, please Lucy.
47:05Yes, no.
47:10Great, one sec.
47:11Yes.
47:12A slight graze.
47:13Why?
47:15I need to listen again to the footage we took of the Morris dance.
47:18Oh, not again.
47:19Which one?
47:20Both of them.
47:22I knew these held the answer, but it wasn't that I couldn't see it.
47:27It was that I just didn't hear it.
47:31Close your eyes, please.
47:33All of you, listen.
47:35For what?
47:36Your favourite.
47:37The knucklehole tune.
47:38This is from the rehearsal we did yesterday lunchtime.
47:48This is from the music from the actual dance when Craig suffered his allergy attack.
47:59They're different.
48:00Exactly.
48:02In the rehearsal, Holly's pipe plays throughout, but on the night of the dance, Holly's pipe stops prematurely, leaving only
48:08the fiddle and drum playing.
48:09Meaning what?
48:11That Holly was the one that tried to kill Craig.
48:15She was standing directly behind Craig as the side danced.
48:18She pretends to keep playing, but slips a metal dart fashioned from a fishing fly hook coated in latex into
48:24the end of her pipe.
48:25Everybody was watching the dart as no one's looking at her.
48:28When Craig got close, she uses her pipe as a weapon to shoot the dart at the back of his
48:33head.
48:35Penetrating the skin guaranteed the latex reaction would be at its most severe.
48:40She then carries on playing as normal.
48:41It stops as Craig falls and rushes to his aid.
48:44She had to reach in first to get rid of the dart.
48:47Heads to the nick and bruising to the head.
48:48Get his EpiPen!
48:49Calling out for help and acting distressed just bolstered her alibi.
48:52Corrine!
48:53No one would suspect her.
48:55Everyone thought she was Craig's lover.
48:57But she was his lover, wasn't she? Why would she try and kill him?
49:01Because the person Craig was having an affair with wasn't Holly.
49:05It was her husband, Matthew.
49:10Holly was a fishing widow in more ways than one.
49:13You were right about the clothing.
49:16Craig did have something his lover wore.
49:20He had his shirt.
49:24Only he took it from Matthew.
49:26It was a keepsake for when Matthew stayed home,
49:29playing doting husband and father to Holly and his kids.
49:32And Holly knew what was happening.
49:35She was talking about Matthew outside the community centre.
49:38I just wish Craig hadn't come here.
49:42It's changed everything.
49:44You can't help who you fall in love with.
49:46But you can decide what you do about it.
49:49You can choose to stop seeing them even if it makes you really unhappy.
49:55You have to.
49:57I doubt Craig's the first indiscretion Holly's had to put up with.
50:00But she'd always tolerated it as long as it was temporary.
50:04Then Craig decided to stay.
50:06To fight for his new life.
50:08And Holly couldn't let that happen.
50:10She made one final appeal, begging him to leave.
50:14She knew Matthew's punishment would change things.
50:17Even if he wanted it to.
50:19Hey, get off her!
50:20Craig wasn't going to accept that.
50:22He was going to force Matthew to choose so Holly knew she had to act.
50:28So when Matthew left, she went straight into the shed.
50:32And took the latex solution.
50:36Using Matthew's fishing gear and Craig's wooden flute to end their affair must have felt grimly appropriate.
50:51Taking the EpiPen while everyone prepared for the dance was easy enough.
50:55Everything was set.
50:56The only thing that went wrong?
50:58The ambulance got there too quickly.
51:03So then later when we saw her at the hospital,
51:07she didn't go there to check on Craig.
51:10She went to finish him off.
51:13She knows he's awake now.
51:15She asked about visiting him.
51:17What if she's thinking of trying again?
51:30Holly, stop.
51:35You're under arrest.
51:36For what?
51:38I've just come to see my friend.
51:40Let me through.
51:41Don't let her touch him.
51:44This is ridiculous.
51:46Look, I know it was you, Holly.
51:48I don't know how you did it, but you're not getting a second chance.
51:52How many second chances have I given you?
51:55She's got something on her hands.
51:56Okay, alright.
51:57Stop it.
52:00I've got a bag.
52:01Why can't you have chosen me?
52:03Just one.
52:04Holly, just don't.
52:07Take her out.
52:08No, wait.
52:08He doesn't want to press charges.
52:10You're under arrest.
52:11He's going to sail off.
52:12Abroad, like he said.
52:14Isn't that right?
52:15Is that what you want, Matthew?
52:21I want my children to have their mother.
52:27And me.
52:31I'm sorry.
52:34I'm sorry.
52:35I'm afraid it's up to the CPS whether they decide to prosecute.
52:39No one here can make that decision.
52:41Sorry.
52:57It's the kids I feel sorry for most.
53:00How did you begin to repair that?
53:02I don't know.
53:04The irony is it's the same ending as the legend.
53:07The villager who poisons the knuckle hole dragon ends up killing themselves with the same poison by mistake.
53:13Holly hoped getting rid of Craig would save her family, but she ended up destroying it as a result.
53:19That's what happens when you're not honest with each other.
53:24You lose everything.
53:29Just ask Marvelous.
53:41Just ask Marvelous.
53:44No more dancing for us then.
53:48I'm going to drown my sorrows with a scrumpy and a game of dominoes.
53:52If my guardian angel would care to join me so I can thank her properly for all her kindness.
54:01This is still not a date.
54:03I know that.
54:04I never will be.
54:05You're too weird and strange for any of that nonsense.
54:08As long as you tolerate me, I'm happy.
54:12Florid even.
54:14Ha ha.
54:15Come on then.
54:22I found love.
54:27In the near.
54:29Go on then.
54:31Oh, oh, oh.
54:31Yeah.
54:32Yeah.
54:34Yeah.
54:36I knew that I would not let you go.
54:46It was summer.
54:52And the rain was at bay.
55:00You came like the storm that washed me away.
55:12And if only love was this easy.
55:18I'd write a book about every time you kissed me.
55:23It was true, true, true love.
55:28Oh.
55:31We own a house.
55:32Oh, my God, it's scary, isn't it?
55:35Does that mean we're grown-ups?
55:38It means we're not living with your mother anymore.
55:40Allow me, madam.
55:41Your wall.
55:44Gosh, there's a lot to do, isn't there?
55:48Masses.
55:50Exciting, though.
55:50I'm glad it's just you and me again.
55:53Oh.
55:55You know what?
55:56What?
55:57We didn't bring any glasses.
56:03Love it.
56:06Hello?
56:07Is anyone home?
56:09Oh, is there no escape?
56:12We're out here, Mum.
56:16Happy housewarming.
56:18I've, er...
56:20I've brought some treats to celebrate.
56:23Glasses, genius.
56:24And a box of truffles, even better.
56:29I want to put you in a good mood.
56:32Help make my next news a little easier.
56:37Your what?
56:38I've been allotted a place on a committee.
56:41Oh!
56:42What did you get in the end?
56:45Well, thanks to that nice Mr. Smith,
56:48I've been given a seat on the police and crime panel,
56:51overseeing your activities.
56:53I do hope it won't be a problem.
56:56Cheers.
56:59Someone spotted the mermaid shit in Abbott last night.
57:02Magic, it will.
57:03Tideline farms.
57:04Someone sabotaged their seaweed lines.
57:06Their biggest mistake was shutting out the community.
57:08What's this?
57:08People are angry.
57:10They don't want Tideline farms wrecking this coastline.
57:12This is malicious.
57:13It feels like there's a target on my back.
57:15How is our only suspect still a mermaid?
57:18Agnieszka is coming to visit.
57:20Tell me you didn't send money to someone you've never met.
57:22If this is about me firing one of my team
57:24due to an impossibly small budget,
57:26then kindly tell him I've tragically perished.
57:28You didn't turn this stuff off!
