01:00Oh, shit.
01:41Transcription by CastingWords
02:07You saved me.
02:11Like you.
02:13You don't know who I am, do you?
02:20So, put your hands together for my good friend, businessman, terrible golfer, even worse swimmer, the group.
02:38I don't have to do this.
02:42It's fine.
02:50So, hello.
02:52Quite a day.
02:55Thank you to everyone for joining Monica and me on this amazing day.
03:11We keep so many things hidden, don't we?
03:17I mean, there's so many things we just bury.
03:25And we think it's the right thing to do.
03:28No, we think that if all our secrets came out, our lives would be ruined.
03:38Like they protect us while they don't.
03:42They imprison us.
03:44They stop us from being who we could be.
03:50And I can't live like that anymore.
03:55So, from now on, no more secrets.
04:14The best part of my job is giving people their first home, so newlyweds or, you know, maybe they just
04:21had a baby.
04:22Handing them the keys and seeing their faces like that.
04:25I remember renting.
04:29Yeah, well, I lost half my deposit because there was limescale on the tap.
04:34I put a picture up in the bedroom.
04:37You should have gone to court.
04:39No, yeah.
04:40Sure, yeah.
04:41With all the spare money I had after paying the landlord's mortgage for a year.
04:46Anyway, you know, the lettings agent sided with him.
04:49That only happens if the tenant breaks a clause in the contract.
04:53Yeah, I mean, I'd occupy the property.
04:55I'd breathed in and out.
04:56Someone else's property.
04:58It belonged to someone else.
05:00Sorry if that comes so shorty.
05:02No, my job brings me into lots of people's homes.
05:06I've seen rented flats with no heating, broken windows, mould.
05:12They didn't view it before they moved in.
05:15It's not as simple as that.
05:20It kind of is.
05:38Tony?
05:52I don't know.
06:10I don't know.
06:36I don't know.
06:45If they'd brought me the wrong meal, why wouldn't I just say?
06:48Well, I don't know.
06:49If you didn't want to appear difficult.
06:52Difficult?
06:54Difficult was not the right word.
06:57Getting the meal I ordered is not being difficult.
07:02Let me walk you to your car.
07:04Sure.
07:05Or we could not.
07:08Yeah.
07:09Yeah, that would also work.
07:18Good luck.
07:26That was genuinely painful.
07:31You heard all that?
07:32I only caught the death rattle, but every inch of me is clenched.
07:39She was kind of a dick, though.
07:43Wasn't she?
07:45Uh, to be fair, you were too.
07:50Ah, you see now, you're being ridiculous.
07:52At least I'm not being difficult.
07:55Yeah, I actually said that, didn't I?
07:58It's nice that she wished you good luck, no?
07:59All the best dates end with one person wishing the other one good luck.
08:02Yeah, you think it'd come up with more ballads?
08:22So, does whoever pulls out the knife become king of Jersey?
08:27Shut up, Michael!
08:30Well, what do we do?
08:32You're the bloody policeman.
08:34What do we call someone?
08:37Ian!
08:39Why are you in Jersey?
08:40Why am I in Jersey?
08:42I came to see my mum.
08:44I'm trying to rebuild some bridges, but I backed out, which I knew I would.
08:51Let me guess.
08:52Step eight.
08:55The willingness to make amends to the people we've wronged.
08:59The orange juice.
09:02You don't even have the wine list on the table and the elastic band on your wrist.
09:08You snap it to break the thought cycle.
09:12You should be a detective.
09:15People have said that.
09:18You're drinking water.
09:21Step one?
09:22Step one?
09:22Uh-huh.
09:23Well...
09:25A baby.
09:27Hmm.
09:28Still stumbling through the wreckage, yeah?
09:31Yeah.
09:33Yeah, it's shocking just how much I was able to ruin.
09:38Well, you got anyone looking after you?
09:50Give me a sec.
09:52I have to take this.
09:54I think I should go.
10:00Look.
10:02I don't know how long I'm going to be here for, so...
10:06make it interesting.
10:23Jim Burstrat.
10:24Jim Burstrat.
10:40Right.
10:42The victim is Tony Salinger.
10:4464.
10:45It was his wedding.
10:46He was found dead in his hotel room by his sister, Ruth.
10:49Single stab wound to the chest.
10:51We're putting time of death somewhere between 7.45 and 8.30.
10:54We all know Ian Monkford from the drug squad.
10:57Ian was a guest at the wedding.
10:59He knew the victim.
11:00So I've asked him to give us a breakdown of the principles.
11:04Oh, yeah.
11:05Right.
11:05Hello, everyone.
11:06Arnie again.
11:07Thanks for the intel on the contaminated batch.
11:10No worries, fella.
11:10That's just right place, right time.
11:12Ah-ha.
11:12Pivotal shit, mate.
11:13Guys, go for a drink sometime.
11:15Oh, yeah, er, yeah, sorry.
11:17Um, it was Tony's wedding.
11:19He married Monica, er, Monica Barton.
11:22Then there's, er, Ruth, Tony's sister.
11:25She and Tony, er, own a pharmaceutical company together.
11:30Monica has a son from her first marriage.
11:32There's a daughter.
11:33She didn't come.
11:34I've not met her.
11:36Not sure who was.
11:37Did anything out of the ordinary happen today?
11:39Any fights?
11:41I mean, it was a wedding.
11:43Well, he, er, he fell in the swimming pool.
11:45Tony did.
11:46A waiter saved him.
11:49Everybody thought it was really funny, to be honest.
11:52Okay.
11:52Weird.
11:53Er, thanks, Ian.
11:55Bye.
11:57Ian.
11:58See you later, mate.
11:59Oh, fine.
11:59Cheers, mate.
11:59Cheers.
12:02Anybody else think it's very convenient this guy gets murdered hours after he gets married?
12:08Tell you why.
12:09Because as soon as he signs that marriage certificate, the wife, or the widow now, she gets everything.
12:14Yeah, I mean, let's keep our minds open, but, er, yeah, I mean, potentially massively convenient.
12:20Um, take a look at the company for any litigations, scandals.
12:24Um, Simon, call the station, get the incident room up and running, and someone find this waiter that pulled Tony
12:30from the pool.
12:31Yeah.
12:33Hey.
12:34It's your thing tomorrow, isn't it?
12:36Yep.
12:37How you feeling?
12:38Yeah, no, I'm looking forward to it, actually.
12:40Well, good luck.
12:41Yeah.
12:42Good luck.
12:43All right, don't go on about it.
12:45Christ.
12:47Why were there so few guests here?
12:50The call came in about 8.55, but the manager said that, er, well, pretty much everyone had gone except
12:55for you and the family.
12:56Well, after Tony's speech, um, everything went a bit, er, I-I think he was still rattled after falling in
13:03the pool, and he-he started to say things.
13:06What things?
13:07Um, he talked about secrets.
13:09No more secrets.
13:11He said, er, I'm sure somebody's filmed it.
13:14Er, and then him and the family went upstairs to his room, and everybody was like, er, what happens now?
13:20Um, and so they all just went.
13:25Okay.
13:26Er, I'll get Simon to take your statement.
13:28Then go home.
13:29Oh, no, Jim, I want to help.
13:31What?
13:32No, that's not possible.
13:33There's yours and Tony's connection, plus you were at the wedding, so, strictly speaking, you're a witness.
13:39And, er, well, you know, I'm sure your team can't spare you.
13:42No, no, it's dead quiet after we sorted that bad batch.
13:46No, please.
13:49It was my mate.
13:52I need to know where you were between 7.45 and 8.30.
13:54Don't give me that look.
13:56You do the same.
13:58I said, I was outside the hotel entrance.
14:01It'll be on the CCTV.
14:02Okay, once we've checked that, once we've checked that,
14:06you can start by going through every photo, every piece of fan footage from the guests,
14:10er, including this speech.
14:12All right.
14:27If all our secrets came out, our lives would be ruined.
14:33Like they protect us.
14:35Well, they don't.
14:37Secrets ruin us.
14:39They imprison us.
14:41They stop us from being who we could be.
14:43And I can't live like that anymore.
14:47So from now on, no more secrets.
15:11James?
15:16Try it.
15:18Oh, good.
15:19You can carry this.
15:24We heard your name on the news.
15:25The girls want to grill you.
15:27Who did it?
15:28Who are your suspects?
15:29We won't breathe a word.
15:31Well, it's far too early to say.
15:33You should look at who benefits from his death.
15:35Er, why haven't we thought of that?
15:37Oh, and anyone who didn't like him.
15:39Wow, this is...
15:40Er, has anyone got a pen?
15:42Ignore him.
15:43He's just being clever.
15:45If you're not going to amuse us,
15:47just collect your daughter
15:48and make your way to the nearest exit.
15:51Was there something else?
15:53You're loitering.
15:54No.
15:55Just, um...
15:58All on your own, are you?
16:00Apart from Kim.
16:01Why?
16:04No reason.
16:08Who's for coffee?
16:10Here.
16:11Here.
16:19Hi, Joel.
16:20This is ridiculous.
16:21Jim, hello.
16:22Sorry, I didn't realise the door was open.
16:25Charlie likes me to keep it closed.
16:27Well, it's been four months.
16:30She needs to come out about you.
16:32I'm going to talk to her.
16:33No, sorry.
16:34You should talk to her.
16:36It's fine, Jim, really.
16:38She has a standing here.
16:40Her boyfriends tend to be filthy rich
16:42and drive Bentleys and so on.
16:43Then along comes me with my little Honda Civic.
16:47She makes me park it in the woods.
16:51Remarkable woman.
16:53Besides, I've got heaps to be getting on with.
16:55Look, mood boards.
16:57They did a thing on them on loose women.
17:00They're for the restaurant.
17:01I'm thinking traditional Italian bistro,
17:04but with a dash of irony,
17:05because we're all grown-ups.
17:08Well, these look great, Nigel.
17:11Hope, Jim.
17:14I sunk without it.
17:20Hey, good to go?
17:23So, tell me, how was last night?
17:24Well, someone got murdered, so...
17:26Before that, idiot.
17:27Before that was...
17:30It was a lot of fun.
17:33Brilliant.
17:34You mean we dated?
17:35No, that was awful.
17:36No, we hated each other.
17:37You said it was a lot of fun.
17:38I met afterwards.
17:39The murder?
17:40Yeah, between...
17:42Doesn't matter.
17:44So, who's next on the list?
17:46The vet?
17:46Can we just...
17:47Look, there's no hurry.
17:50I leave in six...
17:52Oh, my God, five days.
17:54You need someone not to look after you,
17:56just to make an effort for.
17:58Or you'll eat toast and wear the same shirt for a week.
18:04Oh, my timetable came through.
18:11I've still got to write essays and read books.
18:13Can you believe it?
18:13What, did you think you'd be playing your violin for two years?
18:15Well, that's all they were doing in the pictures and the prospectus.
18:23Five days.
18:27How are you feeling?
18:29Really excited.
18:30Yeah.
18:31What about you?
18:33Can't wait to see the back of you.
18:36Kim?
18:38Come and say goodbye to the girls.
18:40They want to give you some money.
18:42Just run a brush through your hair.
18:44Can I come down now?
18:46I'm getting a bit hungry.
18:47Nearly, darling.
18:49Charlie, it's time you told people about Nigel.
18:52You have him hiding in the bedroom.
18:53There are books.
18:54I always leave the window open, just a little.
18:58It's fine, Jim, honestly.
18:59No, it does write.
19:01Nigel's ace.
19:02You should show him off.
19:05Millie Faversham.
19:08Her husband's just been arrested for insider trading.
19:11Certain people, who may or may not currently be in the garden, have responded less than charitably.
19:18And Nigel is delicate.
19:20I don't want him exposed to their scrutiny.
19:25Always thinking of someone else.
19:28Textbook Charlie.
19:35It is definitely a challenging role, but that is what interests me.
19:39I'd like to use all the experience I've accrued at CID to meet that challenge.
19:44And I think that experience means that I can offer almost as much as I can learn.
19:50Speaking of using expertise, I hear congratulations are in order.
19:53Thanks to a lead, D.I. Crozier shared with the drug squad.
19:57A contaminated batch of heroin that had already claimed two lives was taken out of circulation.
20:04Well, and thank you.
20:06That is kind of my point.
20:07I mean, I think that there can be a tendency for people to hoard intelligence.
20:13Everyone protecting their own little fiefdom.
20:15What I'd like to do, I'd like to encourage more dialogue between departments.
20:19Well, you have a lot of fans in the drug squad.
20:23I'm sure if it were up to them, the job would be yours already.
20:27But it isn't.
20:29Tim, I believe you have a question.
20:33Tim.
20:34Tim.
20:55Michael Barton?
20:57DCI Jim Bergerac.
20:58I just want to say...
20:59The police took the suit I was wearing.
21:00It's hired.
21:01Who's going to pay for that?
21:04I...
21:05I'll see what I can do.
21:08I'll see what I can do.
21:15Mother.
21:16Mrs. Salinger.
21:18I'm very sorry for your loss.
21:20I'm DCI Jim Bergerac.
21:22I'm going to be leading the investigation.
21:24I know you've already given a statement.
21:25I just have a couple of more questions.
21:27Now, look at the state of her.
21:30It's all right, Michael.
21:33Is it okay if my children stay?
21:35Of course, yeah.
21:36If that's, uh...
21:38I'm sorry, your children.
21:40My daughter's here.
21:41She came back to me.
21:45Darling.
21:46This is DCI Bergerac.
21:50Is it?
21:51Indeed.
22:01We know that Tony fell in the pool.
22:06And we are talking to the waiter who pulled him out.
22:12I wanted to talk to you about afterwards.
22:15How did Tony seem?
22:17Uh, a bit preoccupied.
22:20I think he was quite shaken up.
22:21In his speech, he said, no more secrets.
22:25What do you think he meant by that?
22:28Uh, I have no idea.
22:30He walked out and went up to our room.
22:33He said it was a joke.
22:34I said, a joke.
22:36And he said he had a headache and he wanted to lie down.
22:41Do you know what he meant?
22:42No.
22:43Which one would think was the whole point of secrets?
22:44Do you?
22:45I literally never met the guy's shit for brains.
22:47You seem tense.
22:48Shall I fix you a drink?
22:58I think that was the last time I spoke to him.
23:05And then Ruth found him.
23:07Right.
23:08Yeah.
23:08I wanted to ask you about Tony's company.
23:12Well, it wasn't his.
23:14Ruth founded it.
23:17Tony came on board later.
23:19Um, he was on a salary.
23:21Even the house came with the job.
23:23Do you know he was going to retire in three months' time?
23:26No.
23:27His life was just beginning.
23:35You said you came to see your mum.
23:37Yeah.
23:38See I get married.
23:43Just, uh, unpack the history a bit for me, would you?
23:50Okay.
23:52Uh, they adopted me when I was two.
23:55Hmm.
23:55Me and Monica, we got on.
23:58But we were just on different frequencies.
24:01And then they conceived Michael, and he got all her attention, all her energy.
24:07But that was okay, because I had dad.
24:11But 12 years ago, he killed himself.
24:15And later I said some stuff, and sort of cut myself off from Monica and Michael.
24:22And then, two months ago, I get an email from Tony, says him and Monica are getting married, and it
24:28would mean the world to her if I came, blah, blah.
24:31At first I was like, no way.
24:34Too much bad blood.
24:37But then...
24:38Step eight.
24:44Step eight got me on the plane.
24:46Step eight.
24:47But I chickened out, and I went to a restaurant.
24:51And do you need me to go into that?
24:53No, I think we have that covered.
24:57Your brother is a...
24:59A character.
25:03He's a chess grandmaster.
25:05Did you know that?
25:06No.
25:07But, to be fair, he wasn't the same after Dad died.
25:09He, um...
25:12He...
25:13Kind of had a breakdown.
25:24Morning.
25:25Bonnie?
25:26Is that for me?
25:26Yeah.
25:27Uh, okay, everyone, can we...
25:30Where is Ian?
25:32Can someone find Ian, please?
25:33Yes, boss.
25:35Uh, look, I just spoke to Tony's wife, Monica.
25:37No more secrets, we are none the wiser, but, uh, Nicola, the estranged daughter, she has turned up.
25:43Uh, she was meant to go to the wedding, but couldn't face it.
25:46Um, and look, in the spirit of complete transparency, I should probably mention I met her briefly at a restaurant
25:52last night.
25:54Yeah, I thought that would get your attention.
25:56Sorry.
25:56You met the victim's estranged stepdaughter in a restaurant last night.
26:01Yes, at the time, I didn't know that she was the victim's stepdaughter.
26:04Uh, at the time, Barney, I didn't know there was a victim.
26:06So, look, we chatted for maybe two minutes, and then this morning at Monica's, there she was.
26:12How did your interview go?
26:13Don't worry about my interview.
26:14My interview was the stuff of legend.
26:16This thing with the daughter, is that a conflict of interest?
26:18No, it was a two-minute conversation, so no nothing that would compromise my handling of the case.
26:22Okay, well, we should still check her out. What time was your tete-a-tete?
26:26Okay. I was there with someone else.
26:28Someone else? This is getting complicated. Do we need a diagram?
26:32And after that person left, I chatted with Nicola, so I think she was there about 8.30pm to 9pm.
26:37Right, that sounds a lot longer.
26:38Yeah, what restaurant was it? I'll ask her CCTV, just so we can eliminate her.
26:44Costalers.
26:44Can someone do a background check on Michael Barton?
26:47He was volatile, he was argumentative, and the sister said there have been some mental health issues,
26:53so let's see if he's appeared anywhere on our radar.
26:56Cara, where are we with the murder weapon?
26:58It's from the hotel.
26:59The knife they used to cut the cake, so there are dozens of prints on it.
27:05One other thing I learned from Monica.
27:07Tony's company. It's not Tony's company.
27:09It's his sister's. It's Ruth's.
27:11He was just on the payroll.
27:12Even his house was grace and favor, and he was retiring in three months.
27:16I'm going to look at it and talk to Ruth now.
27:17Does anybody know what the company actually does?
27:19So, they're called Family, with a PH instead of an F.
27:23Their turnover is around 8 million a year.
27:25They specialize in organic chemistry, which combines organic compounds,
27:29so stuff found in nature, with commercially available materials.
27:34Yeah, not the wiser.
27:36What about Tony Salinger? What should we know?
27:38Clean as a whistle. All I could find was a car accident 15 years ago.
27:42La Rue de la Trinité.
27:45Ian, you're about to tell me you've got CCTV of someone sneaking into Tony's hotel room with a cake slicer.
27:50Uh, no, sorry.
27:52But I might have something else.
27:55There's not much CCTV in the hotel, the bar, reception, and some patches outside, but I did find this.
28:10Now, we know the names of everyone else, but I have no idea who that is.
28:16Yeah, see if you can find a clearer image.
28:19Uh, Cara, the waiter who pulled Tony from the pool?
28:21Andrew Todd.
28:22Go see Andrew Todd.
28:23Yes, please.
28:23Thank you, everyone.
28:31Jim, Richard.
28:33We've not had a chance to connect since your wife passed.
28:36How are you?
28:37Did you get my card?
28:38Uh, yeah.
28:39Uh, I think I did.
28:40Yeah, thank you.
28:41Thought I should check, because you didn't acknowledge it.
28:43I heard about the murder at Hotel Claremont.
28:46Ooh, sounds like a naughty one.
28:48Yeah, well, we've got some interesting lines.
28:50Well, if you need someone to bounce ideas off, you have my email.
28:54Now then, Barney Crozier, your thoughts thereof.
28:59We met him this morning, and while we liked him, we didn't love him.
29:03I suppose what I'm asking is, does he have the stuff?
29:07Yeah.
29:08Yeah, he's a very able police officer.
29:11Woodra, the man.
29:11I see I shall have to handcuff you to a radiator to get to the truth.
29:16Bring out the thumbscrews.
29:17No, look, he's a great colleague.
29:20I really enjoy working with him, yeah?
29:23And, look, you know, initiative is crucial in this job,
29:26and when he shows it, he's very impressive.
29:29Yeah, that's what we thought.
29:31What's what you thought?
29:32Message received and understood.
29:35No, no, what I'm saying...
29:37Thanks, Jim.
29:45There's not much to tell.
29:47I was walking past the swimming pool, and I saw...
29:49What's his name?
29:50Selinger.
29:51Yeah.
29:51He looked like he was in trouble, and there was no one else around,
29:54so I jumped in and pulled him out.
29:55Then what happened?
29:57Some people came out.
29:58They'd been looking for him?
29:59No, between you pulling him out and people arriving,
30:02did you talk at all, and what did he say?
30:04I don't know.
30:08That's it?
30:08You saved his life?
30:10I think he was a bit shaken up.
30:12Anyways, I dried off, got a spare uniform, and finished my shift.
30:16What time did you leave the hotel?
30:18Around 7.30.
30:19Got back here quarter to eight.
30:20Can anyone cooperate that?
30:22I live on my own.
30:24How long have you worked at the hotel?
30:26A couple of weeks.
30:27You ever met Mr. Selinger before?
30:29Never met him before in my life.
30:31I'm sorry, I need to make a move.
30:35No, sure.
30:36Thank you, Andy.
30:39So he's dead then, yeah?
30:42Must have really pissed someone off.
30:44It certainly looks that way.
30:47I'll see myself out.
30:49I'll see myself out.
31:03Take a walk with me.
31:05Here's good.
31:12I just spoke to Richard Gibbon.
31:14He was on your panel.
31:16It was off the record.
31:17I wanted to get a sense of which way the wind was blowing.
31:21I'm sorry, Barney.
31:26Did they say why?
31:27It was a very brief conversation, but he said there were a lot of really strong candidates this year.
31:35And there was a question around your initiative.
31:38What does that mean?
31:39I know what initiative means.
31:40I'm saying, what do they mean?
31:41Like I said, it was very brief.
31:43Look, apply again next year.
31:45A different panel.
31:46I'm sure you'll get it.
31:48I smashed it in.
31:49I promise you.
31:51I know you did.
31:58I just didn't know in here.
32:02Can we do this another time?
32:05Actually, I don't know if I can tell you this.
32:07Or are you like priests and this is all confidential?
32:10That's all strictly need to know.
32:12Right.
32:12We're about to be brought out.
32:14Well, we were.
32:15By Hobart's, you know, the big...
32:16Anyway, they're panicking now, which you can understand.
32:19So I'm having to reassure them that nothing's changed and we're still good to go.
32:22And then just running into the toilets to cry.
32:24Yeah, just need two minutes.
32:26Right.
32:27Okay.
32:31This was Tony's job.
32:33I oversee the product and the finances and the...
32:36But the...
32:37The...
32:38The...
32:39The networking.
32:41That was him.
32:42Sorry.
32:44Yeah, it's been a day.
32:46Yeah.
32:47I'm sure.
32:49Oh, actually, there was something I needed to ask you.
32:53When will my brother's body be released?
32:55We want to have a funeral at some point.
32:57Yeah, well, we need to do post-mortem, but it shouldn't be too long.
33:01Right.
33:01Oh, sorry.
33:04It's my daughter.
33:09Tony didn't co-own the company.
33:11He was...
33:12He was technically an employee, right?
33:14Um, who told you that?
33:16Um, Monica told me that.
33:18Monica?
33:19Yeah.
33:21Was she not meant to know?
33:24No, of course.
33:24She should know.
33:25Um, I didn't realise Tony had told her.
33:28I mean, that was the whole...
33:30What?
33:33Uh, um...
33:34Tony had overstated his position in the company to Monica to impress her.
33:40But after the buyout, he was going to retire.
33:42Meaning no more expenses accounts.
33:44No more paycheck every month.
33:46No house.
33:47And I kept saying, you need to tell Monica.
33:49But he just kept putting it off.
33:52He said he didn't know what a reaction would be.
33:54Understood.
33:56Uh, look, thank you.
33:58For your time.
34:01Uh, Monica didn't say when Tony told her.
34:04No.
34:06Why?
34:07I'm just curious.
34:09I'm glad he did.
34:11It was weighing on his mind.
34:14Secrets, too.
34:37Oh, I'm sorry.
34:39Oh, I'm sorry.
34:42Now you sit down.
34:48Look, I...
34:49I want you to know how happy I am that you're here.
34:53I...
34:54I can't tell you what it means.
34:58No, I am, too.
35:00Because it's...
35:02It's given me a chance to, uh...
35:06Oh, I...
35:07That stuff I said a few years ago...
35:10Oh, no, it doesn't matter.
35:11Oh, no, it does.
35:12It does.
35:15I was drinking.
35:17I was a mess.
35:19But it was shitty and nasty and really totally unforgivable.
35:25It's forgotten.
35:27It's forgiven.
35:39What do you think Tony meant when he said, no more secrets?
35:43Well, it's like I said, I don't know.
35:48And how did he die?
35:49Maybe the policeman said, and I missed it.
35:54Oh, God, I'm sorry.
35:57You...
35:57It's fine.
35:58You don't have to talk about it.
36:01Someone stabbed him.
36:06Which is...
36:07Which is awful.
36:08Because, you know, I've been...
36:11I've been thinking about it.
36:13And, um, they'd have had to get so close to him.
36:17Because there was no struggle.
36:19So it must have been someone that he knew.
36:21Someone that he met.
36:22I have to go.
36:22What's wrong?
36:25I'm fine.
36:26I just...
36:29You've just got here.
36:30I don't understand.
36:31Oh, God, God.
36:36So she's gone, then?
36:38How remarkably on brand.
36:42Every cloud and all that.
36:52So, I, uh...
36:54I guess you have to move back now.
36:57Hmm.
36:58I don't have to think about that.
37:00Don't want you cramping my style.
37:02But, uh, I'm sure I'll be able to squeeze you in some.
37:05I may probably under the stairs or something.
37:12This has all worked out rather well for you.
37:17Hasn't it?
37:23Simon?
37:24Where are we with the background checks on the guests?
37:26I'm still working through them, but there's no red flags so far.
37:29But, you know, I told you about that car accident Tony was involved in 15 years ago.
37:33The La Rue de la Trinité.
37:35Yeah.
37:35I did some more digging, and it turns out that someone was killed.
37:38There was an inquest.
37:39He did a blood test, but it was clear, so there was no further charges.
37:42Who was killed?
37:43Sally Mercer.
37:45She was working at the bar that he was drinking at.
37:47He was giving her a lift.
37:48Christ.
37:49How old was she?
37:5020.
37:52Ian!
37:53Excellent work.
37:54Thanks.
37:54Did you know about this?
37:56Tony was involved in a fatal RTA 15 years ago.
37:59Yeah, there was an inquest.
38:00He was cleared.
38:01Yeah, it would have been useful to know that earlier, like 18 hours ago.
38:05I thought I was just doing CCTV and phone camera footage.
38:08Okay.
38:09If you think of anything else from Tony's background that might be useful, do let us know.
38:13What about the guy in the coat?
38:14You found a better image yet?
38:16No.
38:17Can I take a look at that?
38:18Yeah.
38:19Thanks.
38:20Hey, how did you get on with the waiter?
38:22Oh, he said Tony fell in the pool, and he pulled him out, and that's it.
38:26I just got off the phone with forensics.
38:28They said, off the record, don't get your hopes up.
38:30It's a hotel room.
38:30There could literally be hundreds of DNA traces.
38:32Holy shit.
38:33That colour glass, I've seen it somewhere before.
38:35It's in Andy's flat.
38:37Andy Todd, the waiter.
38:38What, you think she's a family member?
38:39Well, it's a different name, but he knows her.
38:44No more secrets.
38:50You weren't completely honest with us, were you, Andy?
38:54You told my colleague you didn't know who Tony Salinger was.
38:58She'd asked if I'd ever met him before.
39:01I said no, which is true.
39:06Who was Sally Mercer?
39:11My sister.
39:15Did you know it was Tony Salinger's wedding?
39:17We don't get told stuff like that.
39:20I only knew it was him when I heard his name on the news.
39:22And when you pulled him out of the pool, you didn't get chatting?
39:25He didn't introduce himself?
39:27My client just said he didn't know Mr Salinger's identity to the following morning.
39:30Yeah, which was before he spoke to DC Malloy.
39:33You didn't think that would have been a good time to mention your connection to Mr Salinger?
39:37No, because I knew you'd make it something it wasn't.
39:39Well, it is something, isn't it?
39:40It's a massive coincidence that the hotel where you work
39:43is the venue for the wedding of the man that's connected to the death of your sister.
39:48And what, you just so happened to save him from drowning.
39:51What can I say?
39:53It's some island.
39:57Ever heard of a company called Drakefield Security?
40:00Yeah, I used to work for them.
40:01That's right. You were a sales executive.
40:05What were you on there a year?
40:09$30,000?
40:10$29,000.
40:11$29,000. Not bad.
40:12Why did they sack you?
40:13They didn't. I left.
40:15Oh.
40:17Sorry, I assumed that they sacked you because straight away you started work at a hotel
40:21where your salary was $15,000.
40:24Why would you leave a well-paid job with prospects to become a waiter?
40:28Let's say that we get a warrant and we go through your phone.
40:30How many searches in recent years will we find for Tony Salinger?
40:38Here's what I think happened, Andy.
40:40You'd been low-grade stalking Tony for years.
40:45And then suddenly he's getting married and, and that hurts.
40:49You know, accidents or not.
40:52He was driving the car when your sister died.
40:56And look at him now.
40:59Not a care in the world.
41:02And so you have to do something.
41:03So you get a job at the hotel.
41:07Finally, the day comes.
41:09There he is.
41:10Come on, Andy.
41:12What did you do?
41:16Do you have kids?
41:19If they were killed, think about what that would do to you.
41:24My mum died in 2020.
41:25She was 49.
41:28That's what grief does.
41:30That's what he did to us.
41:32But I didn't kill him.
41:34I mean, I literally saved his life.
41:36Let's cover stories go.
41:37That is quite good.
41:38Well done, man.
41:38Come on, really?
41:39Why would you orchestrate this meeting?
41:41So I could shout at him.
41:43Just make him listen.
41:45Honestly, I don't know.
41:46Maybe I was going to beat him up.
41:48I thought, I thought he'd recognise me.
41:50That he must be stalking me too.
41:52He's stalking my family.
41:54He must be.
41:57You know, I served him a drink at one point and I thought,
42:01as soon as he sees my face, he'll say something.
42:07Nothing.
42:09Not a flicker.
42:12And then he wandered off and then when I found him,
42:14he was in a pool.
42:15And for a second I thought,
42:17leave him.
42:22And if I could get that moment again, I would.
42:24And I'd watch him drown.
42:28I'd take popcorn.
42:30But Sally wouldn't want me to do that.
42:33She'd want me to do what I did.
42:35What did you say to Tony?
42:37I said, you don't know who I am, do you?
42:41I said, you killed my sister.
42:42What did he say?
42:43I don't know.
42:44He was pretty shocked.
42:46Anyway, I didn't, I didn't want to be around him anymore.
42:48I didn't, I didn't want to look at him.
42:50So I got out of the pool, put on dry uniform, finished my shift and went home.
42:55No one can corroborate that, Andy.
42:57Do you see the problem we're having?
43:05I went back to the site where my sister died.
43:08The Rue de la Trinity.
43:10Are you sure about that?
43:12Because there will be CCTV there and on a dozen roads and streets on the way.
43:16I'm wearing a jacket with white stripes down the arms.
43:20I walk along the Rue de Scottles.
43:24That should save you some time.
43:27Thank you, Mr. Todd.
43:28We'll be in touch.
43:29But don't flee to Mexico.
43:31Just before mum died, she spoke about the accident.
43:37Andy, we shouldn't do this yet.
43:39You know there was a witness that said Salinger was drunk.
43:42Like off his face drunk.
43:43The witness must have misremembered.
43:45Tony took a blood test and it was clear.
43:46So maybe Tony had help.
43:49Help?
43:49How?
43:50The blood test would have been supervised by whichever police officer took him to the hospital.
43:54Exactly.
43:55And that's why I didn't tell you.
44:04You think we find him on CCTV?
44:06Yeah, he didn't kill Tony.
44:08What about the other stuff?
44:09That I'm less inclined to believe.
44:10He's just trying to make sense of this horrific loss.
44:12God knows I can understand that.
44:15Yeah.
44:16But let's check who the attending officer was, just so we know.
44:19You worried it was you?
44:20I feel very funny.
44:21I don't care what everyone else says.
44:23Oh, I forgot to ask.
44:24Did you hear back about the job?
44:25It went in a different direction.
44:27Sorry, Bonnie.
44:28That's shit.
44:30Did they give a reason?
44:32Well, well, well.
44:34Guess who the attending officer was?
44:35Literally the first person on the scene.
44:37It was Ian, wasn't it?
44:41Richard Gibbon.
44:42He took Tony to the hospital to get the blood test.
44:45The blood test that basically exonerated him?
44:47Exactly that.
44:49Someone to see you, boss.
44:49I'll put them in the family room.
44:51Why have you done that?
44:52You'll see.
45:03Nicola.
45:05I think I know who killed Tony.
45:07I think it was my mum.
45:10It was Monica.
45:11What makes you say that?
45:13Because 12 years ago, she killed my father.
45:41Why did she kill my father?
