00:00Rawr!
00:02Rawr!
00:07Rawr!
00:08Rawr!
00:12Rawr!
00:14Rawr!
00:16I thought Morris dancing
00:18was all handkerchiefs and kneebells.
00:20Uh, traditionally, yes.
00:22But this...
00:22This is Dark Morris.
00:25It's anarchic cousin, much more subversive.
00:28It's called the legend
00:29of the Knucklehole Dragon.
00:31A fearsome beast is devouring
00:34the villagers, but no knight
00:35could slay it. Which one's Margo
00:38again? I'm guessing the dragon.
00:39No, she's one of the villagers
00:41that kills the beast
00:43with a poisoned pie.
00:45She's been practicing for weeks, dancing
00:47around the office, trying to
00:50force-feed me past these.
00:52Oh, I think that's her at the back.
00:53Oh, let's just watch, shall we? It's pretty obvious
00:55what's going on.
01:14It's not in the case.
01:15Someone help him!
01:19Please!
01:20No, I'm not.
01:21It's not in the case.
01:22Where is it?
01:23Hurry!
01:23Hurry!
01:30One morning in the month of June,
01:32down by a rolling river,
01:35there a weary tribe
01:36had a chance to stray, and he beheld
01:38his lover.
01:39Her cheeks were red, her eyes were brown,
01:42her hair and ringlets hanging down.
01:44And she put a lovely face
01:46without a frown, just as the tide was flowing.
01:56It looks like it was an allergic reaction.
01:59The paramedics gave him an epinephrine shot.
02:01They're just hoping he's got it in time.
02:03Right, what was the allergic to?
02:05Latex.
02:06You know Marvelous, don't you?
02:07Ah, yes, a kindred mariner.
02:09I bought my boat from you.
02:11Then let her drift out to sea like some
02:13janny fortnight.
02:14Lord alone knows how.
02:17Yes.
02:19Sorry, latex, you say?
02:21Yeah, anything with rubber.
02:22His name's Craig.
02:24He'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.
02:31He showed us all how to use it.
02:33Right, so 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,
02:44that means they knew Craig would have a serious reaction
02:46and they wanted to delay his treatment?
02:49Not 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 a tight one.
03:07Any reaction happens the moment he comes into contact with it.
03:10So if someone intentionally triggered 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?
03:42Hey, don'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.
03:56Help you stress.
03:57I'm good, thanks. You keep it.
03:59No, you can help me.
03:59Put it away.
04:00It's okay.
04:02It's polyurethane.
04:03But maybe don't touch him, just in case.
04:05Right, 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.
04:15Doctor's orders.
04:15Thanks, Lucy.
04:19I'm sorry, I just wanted to check he was okay.
04:23You'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, walking, trying to make sense of it all.
05:10Why are the police involved?
05:12They, uh, think it may have been deliberate,
05:15which is absurd.
05:17It was an accident.
05:23Hey.
05:26You need to forget about him.
05:29It's just you and me now.
05:36Come here.
05:41Fresh star, yeah.
05:56Yes, do stand in the doorway, Humphrey.
05:59That's enormously helpful.
06:00Sorry, Anne.
06:01Mm-hmm.
06:02Right, so, what do you think?
06:05Your writing's terrible when you're stressed.
06:08But I like the carpool idea.
06:10Mm-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.
06:36Suppose I could write things on my sleeve.
06:38I'll keep thinking.
06:39Good idea, though.
06:40Great.
06:41Yeah, thanks.
06:42Love you.
06:44See 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 Morris up there?
07:08He's as daft as a brushed owl, but he's not an allergy, Psycho.
07:12And neither am I.
07:14We can't rule anyone out at the moment.
07:15You 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.
07:24Morning, Kelby.
07:25Dzień dobry.
07:28Sorry, I'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?
07:40Oh.
07:44Her name's Agnieszka.
07:47We met online.
07:50She'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.
08:02I know.
08:03I'm a lucky guy.
08:04Morning, all.
08:06What's that new air freshener?
08:09I'm gonna call forensics.
08:12You've had some more messages from that Mr Smith at the hub.
08:15He's gonna start stalking you soon.
08:16Yes, yes, I'll talk to him later.
08:19Any update on our Morris victim, Craig Fields?
08:21Still 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, and 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.
08:38What facts do we know about?
08:40Well, he's a carpenter and joiner by trade.
08:42He bought a damaged boat off Marvellous, 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 Marvellous, 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.
09:22Matthew Willis, side leader?
09:24They're called the Squires.
09:26Squires?
09:26It's a big Willis family tradition which Matthew felt Craig was usurping.
09:32Is that why the changes, the shift to dark Morris? Was that all down to Craig?
09:36Yeah, we put it to the vote and Craig won.
09:41Even Holly voted for it.
09:42Ouch.
09:43Is that when the rumours started?
09:45Pretty much.
09:46Holly.
09:47They 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.
10:02I 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.
10:14Lab report says there's no trace of latex on any of the staffs, masks or costumes.
10:21Yet. Craig collapsed mid-dance.
10:23So how has his allergy triggered unnoticed?
10:25We need someone to have filmed it.
10:31I do know someone who recorded it on their phone.
10:34Excellent.
10:34Let's get a copy of that before they delete it.
10:37Really?
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.
10:49And 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.
11:02Strawberry chew.
11:06Interesting.
11:08There was no feather of this kind on the Morris costumes, so...
11:15What bird does this belong to?
11:21No wonder.
11:24The holy grail of golf is something called an eagle, apparently.
11:29Or albatross.
11:31How do I look?
11:33Like a lawsuit waiting to happen.
11:35Please don't swing that in here.
11:37Are they Dad's clubs?
11:39Yes.
11:40Lance Kendrick, who's Chair of the Sports and Culture Committee,
11:43asked if I played, so naturally I said yes.
11:48Because?
11:49Well, they're allocating seats to all the new councillors
11:51and I don't want to get stuck on the Committee of Strategic 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.
12:06You meant golf.
12:09Well, next time...
12:11I'll phrase it more carefully.
12:14Oh!
12:15Wish me luck.
12:16Let him win. You'll be fine.
12:24If 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?
12:43I'll take some more money.
12:45Bye.
12:46Bye.
12:59Bye.
13:00Esther!
13:00Hi!
13:01You wanted to see me.
13:02Did you want to book in another massage?
13:03No.
13:05Last 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, sure.
13:12No problem.
13:15Sorry, do you mind if I...
13:17Yeah, it should be in the gallery.
13:21Hello, Gordon Van.
13:22Yep, Sandra, we've got you in for 10.30.
13:25Okay, we'll see you then.
13:27Okay, bye.
13:28Oh, sorry.
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?
13:43It wasn't a big deal.
13:44Quick fling, nothing major.
13:46Yeah, no, that's what he said.
13:49Right.
13:50Oh, 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, that was more about work stressing me out, not Archie.
14:00That's long gone.
14:01In fact, I was the one who ended it.
14:03Great.
14:05Ah, here.
14:08Sorry.
14:08No, rest for the wicked.
14:11Golden Van.
14:12Hold on one sec.
14:13All done.
14:14Thanks.
14:16Nice to see you.
14:19Yep.
14:19Was that for the hot stone?
14:24It's from Archie's new girlfriend.
14:27It's not great quality.
14:28Why can't you just stay still?
14:30I think she's dancing.
14:31It's hard not to.
14:33It's a really catchy tune.
14:34How 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.
14:57Oh, God.
14:58I've felt my drink.
14:59Here, hold this.
14:59It's all over my tongue.
15:00Oh, for God's sake.
15:02They missed it.
15:02Oh, turn the camera.
15:03I think it's over.
15:05I think it's over.
15:05Was that it?
15:06No.
15:06Something's wrong.
15:07Look.
15:08Holly's the first person to help Craig.
15:11But who's that bringing his epi case over?
15:19Who's your prime suspect now?
15:23And here, wait.
15:24Please, Marvellous, hold your horses.
15:26Shoulders back.
15:27Stand up straight.
15:29Full energy, please.
15:30Here we go.
15:31And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
15:35Smile.
15:36Out.
15:37Turn.
15:38Round.
15:38Wait.
15:38Stop.
15:39Stop.
15:40What are you doing?
15:41Aside from humiliating myself just so I can dance with this adorable woman, I have no idea.
15:48It'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.
15:59And since we don't have a dragon anymore, we need to practice a new dance.
16:03It feels wrong doing anything while Craig's still unconscious.
16:06Right.
16:07Let'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, honouring our commitments, and doing as your squire says.
16:25Hello.
16:27Sorry, music stopped.
16:29Hope we're not interrupting.
16:31Not at all, Inspector.
16:32I'm explaining how Morris Stanson's celebration of community, of spring and light.
16:39Dark Morris is a...
16:40Well, that's a different path.
16:43And we need to make a choice.
16:45You can't have both.
16:48Holly.
16:49Holly.
16:50We're rehearsing.
16:51I need a vape.
16:52Take five, everyone.
16:55That'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 Marvellous to bring in some spare sticks.
17:05Her wish is my command.
17:07Excellent.
17:09Marvellous.
17:10Matthew.
17:11If 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.
17:21Um...
17:21Yeah, tell her my mill.
17:22Uh...
17:23Dodgy Curry.
17:23Don't get all choppity.
17:25Stay put.
17:26Keep stum.
17:27You ain't done nothing wrong.
17:29Now breathe.
17:33You wanna gherkin' with that?
17:35I pickle my own.
17:37Very tasty.
17:41So you're, um...
17:42You're done with Dark Morris?
17:43Well, I think one for Ray 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.
18:08Hm.
18:10Although I suppose if Craig's allergy
18:13was triggered deliberately
18:15and someone's 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 he'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 Epi kit.
18:44Do you have any idea why the pen wasn't in there?
18:50It must have fallen out.
18:52It must have fallen out.
18:53Been mislaid.
18:55So...
18:56another accident?
19:00It's the simplest explanation.
19:08Craig was...
19:09a popular member of the side.
19:12A popular member of the side.
19:13If a...
19:13tad headstrong.
19:15Like myself.
19:16Hm.
19:17It caused some 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.
19:43Holly takes her wedding vows as seriously as I do.
19:53Quite years ago.
19:55I guess 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.
20:11It's not true.
20:13We weren't having an affair.
20:14I...
20:15I wouldn't.
20:17I love my husband and...
20:19my kids.
20:21They're my life.
20:23What...
20:24Why would I deputise that for...
20:26for what?
20:28Sex.
20:29It's not worth it.
20:31Nothing is.
20:34Oh, God.
20:35I'm sorry.
20:36I 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...
20:54choose to stop seeing them, even if it makes you really unhappy.
20:58You have to.
21:00It still hurts, though.
21:02For better...
21:03or for worse.
21:05You have to do the right thing.
21:08For the sake of...
21:09your family.
21:11Is that you talking?
21:12Or Matthew?
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 Fling.
21:37Under-15s.
21:38He won a medal.
21:40How is any of this relevant?
21:42Well, I need to experience the dance from Craig's point of view.
21:45Assess his interaction with the side.
21:47Before 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.
21:55Just the last part before Craig collapsed.
21:59Right, who 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.
22:12The others all around.
22:14Esther, are you ready?
22:16I'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.
22:45And Inspector, now.
22:47Now what?
22:49Oh yeah, right, everyone stop!
22:51I, uh, need to mark all your final positions.
23:00Are we done now?
23:01Uh, no, one more thing.
23:04Margot, when you peel off to get the poison pie, what was the prop you used?
23:09A pork pie.
23:10A real one?
23:12Yeah, the fake ones contain rubber.
23:14Did Kirby collect up that pie for testing?
23:16Because I've read with a latex allergy that there are certain foods that can also trigger a reaction.
23:22No, Bob ate it while we were waiting for the ambulance.
23:27I was hungry.
23:29Craig fell down before I even collected it.
23:32And it never went anywhere near him.
23:34I'm always 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!
23:51I'm not sure!
23:56I'm not sure!
23:58I'm not sure.
24:00Sorry.
24:01It's too hot in there.
24:03I had a bit of a panic attack.
24:04It's okay.
24:06Take your time.
24:13I like Craig.
24:15He's a great guy.
24:17He gave me this fitness routine and a diet plan, helped me lose weight.
24:21I feel lucky to know him.
24:23Did he charge you for that advice, Bob?
24:25No, of course not.
24:26Why?
24:27Craig'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.
24:47I mean...
24:49It's not happening.
24:50Craig backed out.
24:52He told me he changed his mind.
24:53But he kept your money.
24:55Well, he'll repay it.
24:57He has to.
24:58What if he doesn't?
25:00What will you do to persuade him?
25:03Well, I ain't gonna kill him, am I?
25:07How could he pay me back then?
25:08Except Craig isn't dead.
25:11So, triggering his allergy would serve as a pretty effective warning.
25:15Well, I wouldn't.
25:17I've never hurt anyone in my life.
25:19I'm a boring accountant who lives in a rented bedsit.
25:22That's why I gave Craig the money in the first place,
25:24so I could change things.
25:26And then he changes his mind and says he doesn't want to do it anymore.
25:31Having spent all my money, that ain't right.
25:34And he knows it.
25:44Come on, Bob.
25:50What was the money for, Bob?
25:52This business you'd planned?
25:53What did Craig not want to do anymore?
25:58No 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 as a mark of
26:23respect.
26:24You told me you ate it fishing, ever 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.
26:41What a flaming hell is this?
26:42Now give that ear.
26:47Let'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.
27:38I 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.
27:50He paid him a lot of money.
27:52Most of which Craig then paid to you.
27:56That's right.
27:58To buy the boat he's rebuilding.
28:00And he got a fair price.
28:03You want to look at my books?
28:04Go ahead.
28:05I 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.
28:20Who I still revere to this day.
28:27Are you taking medication we're not aware of, Marvellous?
28:30My only drug is love.
28:33And 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.
28:56And that's why Craig's staying and why the Bob business ain't happening.
29:00Does Holly know Craig's staying?
29:02He told everyone in the side during rehearsals.
29:04So Matthew knew as well?
29:07Should have kept my big gob shut, shouldn't I?
29:11We need to find out what business Bob and Craig were planning.
29:16And 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.
29:40That'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 oak chairs?
29:49Have you been sunbathing?
29:50Because I think you might have sunstroke.
29:53But we could buy a hummock for the garden and a duck house for Selwyn.
29:58Oh 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.
30:10Chicken 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.
30:33What's that Mr Smith?
30:34He's been calling non-stop.
30:36I'm running out of excuses.
30:38No, Kelby.
30:39Don'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?
30:55Wait!
30:57That's scrumpy at Kitty J's.
30:59There's a glass with my name on it.
31:02I have to work if you fancy it.
31:06Ho, ho, ho, ho!
31:08It's the perfect weapon.
31:10A metal fishing hook, coated in latex, one scratch, insta-claps.
31:15But 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.
31:29You said there were fishing rods in Marvellous' 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.
31:39Can you go to his boat yard 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.
31:47Then 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.
31:57It can have been a fishing line.
31:59It's too haphazard and noticeable.
32:01Well, let's watch and find out.
32:16Inspector.
32:16Not now, please, Margot.
32:22So, not just me you ignore, but your staff too.
32:24Interesting.
32:26Mr Smith.
32:28I was about to call.
32:29I thought we should FaceTime instead.
32:31Trim the fat in person.
32:32Esther, 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.
32:52Inspector, shall we?
32:53Um, yeah, of course, it's that way.
33:01Um...
33:02Flat white for me.
33:04No sugar, thanks.
33:07Now, you have caught me on the hop a bit.
33:10Uh...
33:10And 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.
33:32I 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.
33:41If your sergeant has time to get coffee, then how relevant is she?
33:44Well, that's hardly fair.
33:45You are her superior.
33:46She was just doing what you are.
33:47We need blue skies, Inspector.
33:50Not 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.
34:56You're right, Esther.
34:58It wasn't a fishing line.
34:59It must be something else.
35:00What did Mr Smith want?
35:02What?
35:03Why did he send me off like that?
35:05Um...
35:06Oh, 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.
35:22It'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.
35:32Complicated.
35:33It's Polish.
35:35Agnieszka called me it last night.
35:36She said it was a compliment.
35:39New 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.
35:48No, the answer must be here somewhere.
35:51I'm just not seeing it.
35:53Craig'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,
36:32she'll be the first to know.
36:46How 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.
36:54Did 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.
37:04Well, you're strong on culture though.
37:06I certainly gave that cart driver some Anglo-Saxon advice.
37:14Hi!
37:17You've got a house.
37:18I know, and I bring Thai 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.
37:28Yeah.
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.
37:58He's very charming.
38:00And a very good golfer.
38:01Oh, so that's one of the balls he's been juggling.
38:03Is it?
38:05He's very concerned about you.
38:07And about your whole team, in fact.
38:09He's worried you're wasting police time
38:11investigating something that could be an accident.
38:14Well, it wasn't.
38:15And I'm not.
38:20I'll get us some plates and glasses.
38:22Oh, it's very exciting.
38:24Can't wait to see it tomorrow.
38:26Me neither.
38:27I'm sorry about your committee.
38:29Oh, never mind.
38:30I'm sure I'll find some other way
38:32to serve the community.
38:37She doesn't know about Mr. Smith.
38:40Don't be cross with her.
38:41I'm not.
38:41I'm angry at him.
38:43They're questioning my team's work ethic
38:44while 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.
38:58I know.
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.
39:49I 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.
40:11One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
40:12One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
40:14Go.
40:14Oh.
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.
40:33This 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, obviously.
40:45Okay.
40:46So, I've put together an itinerary.
40:53I want to go travelling.
40:55Load 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. You told Martha before me?
41:06She's been giving me loads of extra shifts so I can build up my savings.
41:12I've got enough for a ticket already.
41:15I have to do this, Mum.
41:17Soon or I'll never do it all.
41:21So, who's stopping you?
41:23You are.
41:25I just wonder what you'll do, whether you'll be alright?
41:28Of 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.
41:40Hmm.
41:42You 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.
42:01Great.
42:02Go for it.
42:02Hmm.
42:08Hmm.
42:25Where are fours?
42:29Why is Bob watching us like that?
42:32I don't know.
42:33Maybe he can't believe that dreams do come true.
42:37Hmm.
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 global mob were planning.
42:56Or we are never, ever going to sit here and drink Scrumpy again.
43:01Got it.
43:04Smuggling?
43:05That was Craig and Bob's new business?
43:07Apparently, 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'd really have to talk to him.
43:20Is there any word yet from the hospital?
43:22Lucy 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.
43:31Let us know when you do.
43:32Thank you, Kirby.
43:44I was blackmailed to show you these.
43:47I want that on record.
43:49Right.
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.
44:05Understood.
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.
44:29Or a bit of clothing.
44:32That's a little big forehead, don't you think?
44:38Kelby.
44:40Hello?
44:42All right, we're coming now.
44:44Esther?
44:45Kelby's fixed the camera.
44:46Says we need to see it right away.
44:51OK, 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.
45:20I went there to beg him to leave.
45:23I said I could cope with being unhappy
45:28as long as my children felt safe and loved instead of abandoned.
45:35I didn't know Matthew had followed me.
45:38What happened?
45:39What happened after Matthew smashed the camera?
45:41Did he go into the shed to take the latex?
45:43No, he just left.
45:45He didn't take anything.
45:47Holly, he didn't take it.
45:48He wouldn't.
45:49You don't understand.
45:51Please, I have nothing else to say.
45:55You 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, not yet.
46:07Soon.
46:09Benji!
46:11Benji, can you stop that?
46:13You put the pipe down, it's not a toy.
46:16Yeah, sorry.
46:22DS Williams?
46:29Hi.
46:35Great, okay.
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
46:46on 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
47:01to see if Craig has a cut or graze
47:03on the back of his head, please, Lucy.
47:05Yes, no.
47:10Great, one sec.
47:12Yes, a slight graze.
47:13Why?
47:16I need to listen again
47:17to the footage we took
47:18of the Morris dance.
47:18Oh, not again.
47:20Which one?
47:20Both of them.
47:23I knew these held the answer,
47:24but it wasn't that I couldn't see it.
47:27It was that
47:28I 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
47:39is from the rehearsal
47:40we did yesterday lunchtime.
47:48Now this
47:50is from the music
47:51from the actual dance
47:52when Craig suffered
47:53his allergy attack.
47:59They're different.
48:01Exactly.
48:02In the rehearsal
48:03Holly's pipe plays throughout,
48:05but on the night of the dance
48:06Holly's pipe stops prematurely
48:08leaving only the fiddle
48:09and drum playing.
48:10Meaning what?
48:11that Holly was the one
48:12that tried to kill Craig.
48:15She was standing
48:16directly behind Craig
48:17as the side danced.
48:18She pretends to keep playing,
48:20but slips a metal dart
48:21fashioned from a fishing fly hook
48:23coated in latex
48:24into the end of her pipe.
48:25Everybody was watching the dancers.
48:27No one's looking at her.
48:29When Craig got close,
48:30she uses her pipe as a weapon
48:31to shoot the dart
48:32at the back of his head.
48:35Penetrating the skin
48:36guaranteed
48:37the latex reaction
48:38would be at its most severe.
48:40She then carries on
48:41playing as normal.
48:41It stops as Craig falls
48:43and rushes to his eighth.
48:44She had to reach in first
48:46to get rid of the dart.
48:47Heads to the nick
48:47and bruising to the head.
48:48Get his epipen!
48:49Calling out for help
48:50and acting distressed
48:51just bolstered her alibi.
48:52Marie!
48:52Who is it?
48:53No one would suspect her.
48:55Everyone thought
48:56she was Craig's lover.
48:58But she was his lover,
48:59wasn't she?
49:00Why would she try
49:00and kill him?
49:01Because the person
49:02Craig was having
49:03an affair with
49:04wasn't Holly.
49:05It was her husband,
49:07Matthew.
49:10Holly was a fishing widow
49:11in more ways than one.
49:14You were right
49:14about the clothing.
49:16Craig did have something
49:17his lover wore.
49:20He had his shirt.
49:24Only he took it
49:26from Matthew.
49:26as a keepsake
49:27for when Matthew
49:28stayed home
49:29playing doting husband
49:30and father
49:31to Holly and his kids.
49:32And Holly knew
49:33what was happening.
49:35She was talking
49:36about Matthew
49:37outside the community centre.
49:39I just wish
49:40Craig hadn't come here.
49:42It's changed everything.
49:44You can't help
49:45who you fall in love with.
49:46But you can decide
49:48what you do about it.
49:49You can choose
49:50to stop seeing them
49:52even if it makes you
49:53really unhappy.
49:55You have to.
49:57I doubt
49:58Craig's the first
49:59indiscretion
49:59Holly's had to put up with.
50:00But she'd always
50:01tolerated it
50:02as long as it was temporary.
50:04Then Craig decided
50:05to stay.
50:06To fight
50:07for his new life.
50:08And Holly
50:09couldn't let that happen.
50:11She made one final appeal
50:12begging him to leave.
50:14She knew Matthew's punishment
50:16couldn't change things.
50:17Please!
50:17Even if he wanted it to.
50:19Hank, get off her!
50:20But Craig wasn't
50:21going to accept that.
50:22He was going to force
50:23Matthew to choose
50:24so Holly knew
50:25she had to act.
50:28So when Matthew left,
50:29she went straight
50:30into the shed
50:32and took the latex solution.
50:37Using Matthew's fishing gear
50:38and Craig's wooden flute
50:39to end their affair
50:40must have felt
50:41grimly appropriate.
50:51taking the epi-pen
50:52while everyone prepared
50:53for the dance
50:54was easy enough.
50:55Everything was set.
50:56The only thing
50:57that went wrong,
50:58the ambulance
50:59got there too quickly.
51:03So then later
51:04when we saw her
51:05at the hospital,
51:07she didn't go there
51:08to check on Craig.
51:11She went
51:11to finish him off.
51:13and she knows
51:14he's awake now.
51:15She asked about visiting him.
51:17What if she's thinking
51:18of trying again?
51:30Holly, stop.
51:35You're under arrest.
51:36For what?
51:38Just come to see my friend.
51:40Let me through.
51:41Don't let her touch him.
51:44This is ridiculous.
51:46Look, I know
51:47it was you, Holly.
51:49I don't know
51:49how you did it,
51:50but you're not
51:50getting a second chance.
51:52How many second chances
51:53have I given you?
51:55She's got something
51:55on her hands.
51:56Okay, all right.
51:59Okay, you can't.
52:00I've got a bad boy.
52:01Why couldn't you
52:02have chosen me?
52:03Just one.
52:04Okay, get her.
52:05Holly, just don't.
52:07Take her out.
52:08No way.
52:08He doesn't want
52:09to press charges.
52:10You're under arrest.
52:11He's going to sail off
52:12abroad like he said.
52:14Isn't that right?
52:16Is that what you want,
52:17Matthew?
52:21I want my children
52:24to have their mother
52:28and me.
52:32I'm sorry.
52:35I'm afraid it's up
52:36to the CPS
52:36whether they decide
52:38to prosecute.
52:39No one here
52:40can make that decision.
52:41Sorry.
52:57It's the kids
52:58I feel sorry for most.
53:01How did you begin
53:01to repair that?
53:03I don't know.
53:04The irony is
53:05it's the same ending
53:06as the legend.
53:07A villager who poisons
53:08the knucklehole dragon
53:09ends up killing
53:11themselves with
53:11the same poison
53:12by mistake.
53:13Holly hoped
53:14getting rid of Craig
53:15would save her family
53:16and she ended up
53:17destroying it
53:18as a result.
53:20That's what happens
53:21when you're not honest
53:21with each other.
53:24You lose everything.
53:29Just ask Marvellous.
53:44No more dancing for us then.
53:48I'm going to drown my sorrows
53:50with a scrumpy
53:51and a game of dominoes.
53:52If my guardian angel
53:54would care to join me
53:56so I can thank her properly
53:58for all her kindness.
54:01This is still not a date.
54:03I know that.
54:04I never will be.
54:05You're too weird
54:06and strange
54:06for any of that nonsense.
54:08As long as you tolerate me
54:10I'm happy.
54:12Florid even.
54:20I found love
54:27in the near
54:29I knew that I would not let you go
54:45It was summer
54:52And the rain
54:54was at bay
54:59You came like the storm
55:03that washed me away
55:12And if only
55:14love was this easy
55:18I'd write a book about
55:21Every time you kissed me
55:23It was true
55:25True
55:26True
55:27Love
55:31We own a house.
55:32Oh my God, it's scary, isn't it?
55:36Does that mean my grown-ups?
55:38It means we're not living
55:39with your mother anymore.
55:40Allow me, madam.
55:42Your wall.
55:43Mm-hmm.
55:47Gosh, there's a lot to do, isn't there?
55:49Masses.
55:50Exciting, though.
55:51I'm glad it's just you and me again.
55:54Whoa!
55:55You know what?
55:56What?
55:57We didn't bring any glasses.
56:02I love it.
56:06Hello?
56:08Is anyone home?
56:09Oh, is there no escape?
56:12We're out here, Mum!
56:16Happy housewarming.
56:18I've, uh...
56:20I've brought some treats
56:21to celebrate.
56:23Glasses, genius.
56:25And a box of truffles,
56:26even better.
56:29I want to put you
56:31in a good mood.
56:33Help make my next news
56:35a little easier.
56:37Your what?
56:38I've been allotted
56:39a place on a committee.
56:41Oh!
56:42What did you get in the end?
56:44Well,
56:45thanks to that nice Mr. Smith,
56:48I've been given a seat
56:49on the police and crime panel,
56:51overseeing your activities.
56:54I do hope it won't be a problem.
56:56Cheers!
56:59Someone spotted the mermaid
57:00who shitted an abbot last night.
57:02Magic, it will.
57:03Tideline farms.
57:04Someone sabotaged
57:05their seaweed lines.
57:06Their biggest mistake
57:07was shutting out the community.
57:08What's this?
57:09People are angry.
57:10They don't want Tideline farms
57:11wrecking this coastline.
57:12This is malicious.
57:13It feels like
57:14there's a target on my back.
57:15How is our only suspect
57:17still a mermaid?
57:18Agnieszka
57:19is coming to visit.
57:20Tell me you didn't send money
57:21to someone you've never met.
57:23If this is about me
57:23firing one of my team
57:24due to an impossibly small budget,
57:26then kindly tell him
57:27I've tragically perished.
57:28You didn't turn this
57:29back off!
