00:04Jesus, no.
00:05She's gone! Someone's taken Lily!
00:08Kate was killed while attempting
00:09to stop an abduction. Have you shown them the letters?
00:12It says no. This has nothing
00:13to do with the damn letters. You think
00:15it was one of the star? I want them gone.
00:17All of them. John Blakely's alibi was
00:19locked. But later, when I was pitching John as a
00:21suspect to the team, you didn't mention you'd just filed an
00:23alibi for him. Maybe we could talk
00:25about you coming home.
00:28I'd like that, Dad. What do you make
00:29her happy? We love her.
00:31Where I come unstuck is the quarter of a million
00:33pounds you tried to extort from the family.
00:35There was no ransom. Doesn't make sense.
00:37I don't think they killed Kate.
00:45I've been
00:45asked by the Wakefield family to make a
00:47statement. Words
00:49cannot convey the relief we feel
00:51having dear Lily back.
00:54And to know that major
00:55progress has been made into the investigation
00:58into our beloved Kate's murder.
01:01As you can imagine, this has been a very difficult time
01:04for the family. Firstly, we'd like
01:06to thank everyone who has sent messages
01:08of condolence and support.
01:10We really have been overwhelmed.
01:13but most importantly, we'd like to thank the police
01:16and in particular, DCI Bergerac.
01:19There it is.
01:22It was his tenacity and diligence that brought
01:26Lily home and led to this
01:28arrest.
01:31Nonetheless, we are
01:32still grieving. And so
01:34as I'm sure you'll understand, we would
01:36ask for privacy at this time.
01:42Returning to our top story.
01:44I want to thankinkle in the
01:49What do you see in the
01:50place,
01:50in the
01:50lonely
01:50with
02:04you
02:04and
02:11I'll
02:12getother
02:12outside
02:12or
02:13newsm.
02:37That has to be some kind of record.
02:39Kate's only been dead, what, 60 hours?
02:41Well, I mean, killing someone and getting away with it, it's almost impossible today,
02:44you know?
02:45CCTV everywhere, there's mobile phone tracking, there's unbelievably sophisticated forensics
02:49now.
02:50Yeah, but from what you told me, none of those are how you found the murderers.
02:53No.
02:55Yeah, it was more instinctive.
02:59I think that's why I'm second-guessing it now, because there are holes in the theory.
03:04Well, you mean their alibi?
03:06It's definitely holes in their alibi.
03:08No, I mean holes in the police's theory about them killing Kate.
03:12I'm confused.
03:14It was your theory, but now you think that somebody else killed Kate who may or may not
03:19have also been attempting to take the baby?
03:23Maybe we shouldn't be discussing the case.
03:28Sometimes when we are discussing the case, we're not discussing the case.
03:35Why did you go back to work?
03:38Because I was ready.
03:47Because what grief was defining me.
03:51Because I was a mess.
03:52Because I needed to prove something to myself.
03:57To Kim.
03:59When did you last have a drink?
04:01About 58 hours ago.
04:03How's that going?
04:04How's it going?
04:05It's torture.
04:07You don't look like someone who's being tortured.
04:13Where is Kim in her process of grief, do you think?
04:16Have you tried talking to her?
04:20It's pending.
04:25Say they did it, Mia and Tomas.
04:29Walk me through what happens next.
04:31Well, we put together a case and we take it to court.
04:35The team investigating the murder too.
04:37My job is to find the ransom money and tie up the abduction charge.
04:41That feels less consuming.
04:44So, more time to think.
04:49Sorry, you think my doubts aren't actually doubts?
04:54That I'm artificially prolonging the case?
05:01If you have found who did it, then the end is in sight.
05:06With no support.
05:07A conversation about your dead wife pending and not even three full days into sobriety.
05:13I...
05:14I just want you to think about what that would mean.
05:23So, the magistrate has denied bail for me and Tomas because they're such obvious flight risks.
05:28Where are we with the timeline?
05:29Although Night Kate was killed, Mia says they were at home all evening.
05:33We can trace them through till receipts and CCTV up until 1603 and then we lose them.
05:40So, we need to keep looking.
05:42Or we should consider other possibilities.
05:44No, we're not there yet.
05:45Here's a question.
05:47They don't have a car.
05:48How did they get to the house the night they took the baby?
05:50The bus, Mia said.
05:51Okay.
05:52Let's pull CCTV from all buses whose routes go towards the Wakefield house an hour before Kate was killed
05:57and away an hour after.
06:00Contact the minicab companies.
06:02Circulate me and Tomas' picture.
06:04Half a lager top for the first person that puts them at or near the house the night she was
06:08killed.
06:22I set you up beautifully there.
06:24You did?
06:25Yeah.
06:25I said we should consider other possibilities.
06:28And then I looked at you so you could stand up, rip down Mia and Tomas' photo and say what
06:33you said yesterday.
06:34It would have been brilliant.
06:35Yeah, that was just me thinking out loud.
06:37Oh, no.
06:37Don't go back on this now.
06:39I didn't sleep a wink last night.
06:41Look, it's them.
06:43Yeah?
06:44You know how I know?
06:45Because the alternative is that shit.
06:51Well, you won't want to see this then.
07:02One of the letters we intercepted going into the Wakefield house sent a day before Kate was killed.
07:09Elaine, Wei, Gans, Elaine.
07:12It's German.
07:15Alone, alas, all alone.
07:18It's from an opera, Elektra, by Richard Strauss.
07:22Thank you, Google.
07:24Has Barney seen it?
07:25He said, well, families get sent weird shit.
07:30He's right.
07:32Yeah, but they're usually straight up abusive, not cryptic like this.
07:37Alright, just check it against me and Tomas' handwriting.
07:40I'll have to find his ransom money.
07:49Listen, can I just grab a copy of that?
07:54I'm heading over to the Wakefields to ID Tomas.
07:58May as well, uh, run it past them.
08:25Where'd you go?
08:26Not coming?
08:27Not missing the house, man.
08:29Careful, man.
08:31Go on, I can't see you.
08:39It's not being bad.
08:40It's not being bad.
08:41Go on.
08:42Go on.
08:43Go on.
09:07It's hard to, he had a scar around his mouth and, um, which one of these is Tomas?
09:16I can't tell you that.
09:19No, of course.
09:21I know that it's one of them, I'm just not sure exactly which.
09:26No worries.
09:27Thank you anyway.
09:28About my money, Inspector.
09:32Me and Tomas didn't have it with them when I arrested them.
09:35And it wasn't at their property, so we're assuming it's with an accomplice.
09:38Well, whoever made that phone call, um, I said this, didn't I?
09:41He didn't have an accent, so even with whatever he used to change his voice, he was English.
09:47But look, at some point, the money will enter into circulation,
09:49and when that happens, it gets flagged in our system and we can move in.
09:52But you haven't actually charged Mea and Tomas with Kate's murder yet?
09:56My colleague Barney Crozier is leading the murder investigation.
09:59They're putting a case together, I expect I'll have some news pretty soon.
10:03Um, just something I wanted to ask you about.
10:06Um, this was sent to you the day before Kate's murder.
10:12Alone, alas, all alone.
10:18That's a quote, right?
10:21Yeah, it's from, uh, Electra by Strauss.
10:24Any idea why someone would send you a message like this?
10:26No, none at all.
10:28You sure?
10:29You've no idea what it's alluding to?
10:31No.
10:32Which one would assume is the whole point of a threatening letter.
10:36I didn't say it was threatening.
10:41Thanks for your time.
10:53I barely know Arthur Wakefield.
10:55Not my circle at all.
10:57Construction.
10:58Cement.
10:59Dust.
11:01Laborers.
11:02Okay, so who does?
11:03Who can I talk to?
11:05Don't you all go to the same club and light cigars with 50-pound notes?
11:10You know, dress up a poor person as a fox and chase them through a forest.
11:13Oh, you mean the Jersey Club.
11:15Yes, that's exactly what we do.
11:18Wednesdays after bingo.
11:19Okay, and Arthur's a member there too, yeah?
11:22Right, thank you.
11:28How, uh, how's Kim?
11:30You can ask her herself.
11:31She'll be back for lunch later.
11:33I've insisted she has her lunch here now.
11:35Do you know what she usually has?
11:36A sandwich out of a machine.
11:38She told me that.
11:39She said those words.
11:42Well, I need to check this club out.
11:43I need to speak to someone who knows Arthur.
11:45Not looking like that, you won't.
11:47I'm wearing a suit.
11:49If one can call it that.
11:50What?
11:56You could go.
11:57What?
11:57What?
11:57You speak the language.
11:58You understand the customs.
12:00Look, I just need some background on Arthur.
12:03Yesterday, I was trying to steal your daughter.
12:05Now, suddenly, I'm going undercover.
12:08Besides, I thought you had your killers.
12:10No, there's been a development.
12:12What?
12:13Could have been a development.
12:16But Kim said the plan was for her to spend some nights at home now.
12:20No, no, that's still the plan.
12:21It's just a question of when.
12:25I'll talk to her.
12:26It's fine.
12:30So, the club.
12:35Quid pro quo.
12:38I sniff out some dirt, help crack the case, burnish your somewhat tarnished reputation.
12:44And this afternoon, you and I will be given a private tour of St. Bernadette's.
12:50No, we discussed it.
12:51I discussed it.
12:53You had an attack of the vapors.
12:56I'm sure they wouldn't mind.
12:57They love to throw open the doors for old girls.
13:01But equally, you could press your nose up against the window of the Jersey Club like some Dickensian waif.
13:34I'm sorry about Kate.
13:36What?
13:37Oh, yes.
13:39Bad news.
13:40Whoever did kill her will get away with it.
13:43Righty-o.
13:44Don't do that.
13:45Please, please.
13:48Please don't walk away from me.
13:50Just one minute.
13:51I need to talk to you about Bergerac.
13:5630 seconds.
14:03You see, he's not interested in accuracy.
14:05He doesn't want to find who did it.
14:07He just wants to find someone.
14:11He, he falsified evidence against me.
14:14He ruined my life.
14:17You could see for yourself.
14:19John, John Blakeney.
14:20There's a Wikipedia page about me.
14:22They won't let me edit it.
14:24Sorry.
14:24This is coming out wrong.
14:26How about we sit down and I tell you what he did.
14:31Because he's corrupt.
14:32No, please.
14:34He's ruthless.
14:36Please, listen to me.
14:38He will lie to you.
14:41He will lie to you.
14:44He will lie to you.
15:05Right.
15:07Keep it nice and informal.
15:09Just a quick catch-up, bit of gossip,
15:12and then when the moment is right,
15:14you lead the talk towards Arthur Wakefield.
15:17There used to be a little terrace there that caught the sun.
15:21It's been absorbed by the car park,
15:24which would suggest they're increasing their membership.
15:29You're not the only detective in the family, you know.
15:34Why must things change?
15:52Oh, good Lord, it's Charlie Hungerford.
15:55Nigel?
15:56I can barely see you through the haze of Tupigou and Viagra.
16:00Well, you'll join us, won't you?
16:02Well, why not?
16:03It must be six o'clock somewhere.
16:07Can't believe it.
16:08You don't look a day over 35.
16:10You really must do something about those cataracts, darling.
16:13We were so sorry to hear about Rachel.
16:18We soldier on, don't we?
16:21Your health.
16:24Well, watch the gossip.
16:53And remember Bobby Guthrie?
16:56Liver transplant.
16:57Hardly surprising. Anything under 12% is breakfast wine.
17:02Well, I remember. I'd like to pay my condolences to Arthur Wakefield.
17:06Oh, God, yes. Ghastly business.
17:09Is he in the spa? I saw his car outside.
17:14Actually, that's mine now.
17:17How on earth did you get him to park with it? Or is he currently still in the boat?
17:22People change.
17:27Or in your case, they don't.
17:34Will you excuse me, boys, little guards?
17:48Oh, I see. Bergerac. The son-in-law. Dear me, Charlie.
17:54It's Richard Nash, isn't it?
17:56I'm really sorry about this. I know it's a little unconventional.
17:59It's just really important I speak to someone about Arthur Wakefield.
18:01Well, I can't help you.
18:02Wait in the car, James.
18:03No, I think I should...
18:04I've got this, as Kim would say.
18:07Hence the new spool.
18:12Forgive the subterfuge, Dickie, but this is important.
18:15What happened to Arthur's daughter-in-law? It's possible he was the target.
18:20I know. I know. And in his own home.
18:24But the police don't have a clue. This isn't their world.
18:27So can you think of anyone who'd want to hurt Arthur?
18:31I'm sure he's put some noses out of joint over the years.
18:35Could any of them be behind this?
18:39A light Cirrusel.
18:41It was an engineering company that Arthur bought back in 2009.
18:47Look it up, but you won't see his name anywhere near it.
18:49Well, what happened? Was there an issue with the sale?
18:51No, Charlie. That's all you're getting.
18:56And it wasn't from me.
18:59Understood.
19:01Bless you, Dickie.
19:06Oh, here we are.
19:08Allied Cirrusel.
19:10Sold in 2009 to a company called Loctex.
19:14Researchers at Allied develop a breakthrough non-lithium battery.
19:18The Cirrusel battery, which is now used globally.
19:22Upwards of 10 million sold last year alone.
19:25And they were bought by who? By Loctex?
19:27What does it say about that?
19:29Nothing. Nothing, that's all there is.
19:31Go back to the first company, Allied Cirrusel.
19:33Who owned that?
19:34Here we are.
19:36Jonathan Robson.
19:38Oh, he invented this magic battery.
19:41But died, 2010.
19:44Jumped off the roof of this old office building.
19:46Leaving a wife, Linda, and a daughter, Ellie, aged 10.
19:52Give me a favor while you've got the phone out.
19:55Look up the plot of Electra.
19:57I don't mean to.
20:00Electra is a character in Greek mythology, condemned to a life of poverty after her father, King Agamemnon, is murdered
20:09and so wreaks revenge on his killers.
20:13And that is the benefit of a world-class education, except Bernadette's.
20:21Great for pub quizzes, then.
20:33Hey, hey.
20:35Dad.
20:35Great.
20:36I need some money.
20:39No, listen.
20:40It's pointless carrying my toothbrush and stuff with me every time I go back home, so why didn't I just
20:44keep some here?
20:46Yeah.
20:48Yeah.
20:51Yeah, about that.
20:54You know those people that we arrested?
20:58I don't think they did it.
21:01So the case goes on.
21:03It just means that I won't be at home much.
21:08Right.
21:09I'm really sorry.
21:11I know that staying here isn't perfect.
21:12It's not that.
21:14It's just...
21:15We were gonna talk, weren't we?
21:17Yeah, we will.
21:20You keep saying that.
21:21I don't keep saying it.
21:22I've said it once.
21:26It's for you too, Dad.
21:29The conversation you needed to...
21:31You got me all worked out, haven't you?
21:37No, sorry. You're right.
21:42In the meantime, let's do lunch tomorrow.
21:47How does that sound?
21:48Yeah, sure.
21:50It'll be nice.
21:53Um, I should probably...
21:55Yeah.
21:57No, go for it.
22:05I've got to call you about tomorrow.
22:11Bye, love.
22:13Bye, Dad.
22:33Oh, God. What is that face?
22:34I hate that face.
22:40On the night of Kate's murder...
22:41Yeah?
22:41Tomosh said he took in a package for a neighbour.
22:44So I checked it out and, um...
22:48Yeah, it tallies up with the time code from the courier.
22:51You are shitting me.
22:53Did you see Mia?
22:55Over Tomosh's shoulder, asleep on the sofa.
22:58Well, that's back to a square fucking one.
23:02We're obviously still charging for the abduction.
23:04Oh, whoop-de-doo.
23:05That's not even my case.
23:08Speaking of which, where is Golden Borgs?
23:15Hey.
23:16It wasn't Mia and Tomosh.
23:18They've got a solid alibi.
23:19You were right.
23:20But your absence is getting commented on.
23:22Barney wants a team meeting to discuss new leads.
23:24I'll have to raise the letter again.
23:26Uh, give me half an hour on that.
23:28I've got some traction.
23:30Um...
23:30Listen, do the Wakefields know about Mia and Tomosh yet?
23:32No.
23:33I was gonna head over after the meet with Barney.
23:34Don't tell them just yet.
23:37Arthur's hiding something.
23:38Knowing that me and Tomosh are in the clear for murder might make him clamor even more.
23:42Arthur's hiding what?
23:44Does the name Ellie Robson mean anything to you?
23:51Or Jonathan Robson?
23:53Ring a distant bell.
23:57No?
23:57What about Allied Cirrusel?
23:59It's Jonathan Robson's company.
24:00It's bought by another company called Loctex.
24:03The weird thing is...
24:05They didn't exist before or after this transaction.
24:09They appeared out of nowhere.
24:10Bought Allied Cirrusel.
24:11And then disappeared.
24:14Like Brigadoon.
24:16Then one of Jonathan Robson's innovations, the Cirrusel Battery, starts the feature in your marketing.
24:22What's that phrase you use?
24:24Power need not corrupt.
24:29I bought Loctex.
24:32And with it, the catalogue of patents, innovations, plans, back of the beer mad ideas.
24:38Oh, and the, uh, the debt that came with their purchase of Allied Cirrusel.
24:44The thing is, a couple of years later, Jonathan Robson committed suicide.
24:49Correlation doesn't imply causation, Inspector.
24:53Jonathan Robson was clearly a brilliant man. He was also a very troubled man.
24:58But his intellectual property was paid for, some might say handsomely.
25:02Though some might not.
25:05Which brings us back to this.
25:08I believe this came from...
25:10Ellie Robson.
25:12Jonathan Robson's daughter.
25:14Hence the references to a murdered father and an avenging daughter.
25:17It is a bit oblique though, isn't it?
25:19Coming out of the blue, I can't imagine it would make much sense.
25:22It feels to me more like, uh, a theme.
25:28So, how many have there been?
25:31Two or three a year for the last five years, that's all.
25:34That's all. Do you still have them?
25:35No, we do not.
25:37I threw them out.
25:39Ellie Robson is a fantasist.
25:40She's trying to make sense of her father's death.
25:42Now, if I'd thought for one minute that she was involved in Kate's death, I'd have told you.
25:46It is not up to you to decide what is or what isn't relevant, or who is or who isn't
25:51a credible suspect.
25:53You have your suspects. They're literally in bloody custody.
25:55We haven't been able to charge them yet.
25:57And until we do, we have to pursue other leads.
25:59So this is important.
26:01Rightly or wrongly, she believes that you ruined her father, and that is a motive.
26:07What, to kill Kate? Oh, come on.
26:09To hurt you.
26:16So what are you gonna do?
26:18What am I gonna do?
26:19She's a suspect.
26:20I have to look into it.
26:21But moving forward, let's just assume everything is relevant.
26:26Clear?
26:38I only wanted them to know about the letters, and now they do.
26:42I wanted them to know because if it was Ellie Robson, then you're the target.
26:47Meaning there's every chance you'll come back to finish the job.
26:51Ellie Robson didn't kill Kate. We know who killed Kate.
26:55And in the meantime, a question here, a question there, and that's all it takes.
26:59And as far as Bergerac is concerned, this isn't even about Kate anymore.
27:05He's never gonna give up.
27:12What is it?
27:17There was a man here earlier.
27:22Yeah, Kara showed me the letter. I said, grieving families get sent weird shit.
27:27And you're right, but it turns out there's this whole other story with this Robson guy,
27:32whose daughter has been basically, she's been harassing Arthur for years.
27:35Where I get confused is, what does this have to do with the ransom money?
27:38No, it doesn't, but I was literally in the room with Arthur, so I just thought I'd check it out.
27:41And all this, you did this just because you were literally in the room with your laptop and your printer?
27:45Well, no, I wanted to give you something tangible.
27:47I didn't want a repeat of what happened with John Blakely.
27:51You know, when I foolishly went after him, not knowing he had an alibi,
27:54even though his alibi had actually come through to this team.
27:59Yeah, uh, no, that's...
28:00No, uh, good.
28:02Always good to be sure.
28:04I buy this. I think she could be a real person of interest.
28:06Great. To the murder inquiry, which is why I will go and have a chat with her.
28:09Give me a minute and I'll come with you.
28:10That's all right. I'll take Cara.
28:11You got ID on the Robson girl?
28:13Oh, look at that.
28:14It's all in here. This is great stuff.
28:15Thank you, Jim.
28:18Cara! With me.
28:32How did she do that?
28:41How did she do that?
28:49Thank you so much for being here, very nearly the time we agreed.
28:55See? They're not the mid-rich cuckoos after all.
29:00Mrs Hungerford?
29:02So lovely to meet you. Rose Parsons, Head of English.
29:05Thank you so much for arranging this at such short notice.
29:08This is my son-in-law, James.
29:11Can I just say how sorry we were to hear about Rachel?
29:14Some of her teachers are still on the faculty here,
29:17and I know they all thought the world of her.
29:19So did we.
29:20Now, once I've finished showing you around,
29:22I was hoping you might linger a moment.
29:24Someone mentioned that Rachel was in a production the school did
29:27of Romeo and Juliet.
29:28That's right. She played the nurse.
29:30Well, I had a bit of a trawl through the archive,
29:33and you'll never guess what I found.
29:35An actual video of the production.
29:38I had a quick look.
29:39She has the audience in fits.
29:42I thought we could watch it,
29:43or at least as much as you have time for.
29:45Honestly, she's absolutely glorious.
29:48Goodness, that sounds fun.
29:52What do you think, James?
29:53Yeah.
29:56Yeah.
29:57Wonderful. Shall we?
29:58Yes.
29:59I hear Kim is very musical.
30:02Remind me to show you the new recording.
30:03Actually, sorry.
30:05I've left something in the car.
30:29You cover the back.
30:31She might be expecting a visit.
30:32OK.
30:56It's Ellie Robson.
30:57Yes?
30:58Detective Inspector Barney Crozier.
31:00Do you mind if I come in?
31:01Of course.
31:24Oh, fuck.
31:25No, no.
31:26Right.
31:26Miss Robson!
31:28Oh, fuck.
31:31Char sill.
31:46Charter!
31:48Oh.
31:50Charter!
31:51Charter!
32:08Look, even I would struggle to see my dead daughter happy and healthy and glorious technicolor,
32:13but we're here for Kim.
32:14And so we go back in there and we smile and we gaze and all at all the world-class
32:19facilities
32:19and then we say, oh no, mustache, and we go home.
32:22And scream into a pillow.
32:24I am doing my best.
32:26I am trying to give Kim stability and solidity.
32:31That's why I'm back at work.
32:33But just sometimes it's just a lot.
32:42Today was fun.
32:44I enjoyed being useful.
32:48I could forget you just for a minute.
32:52So I see the attraction.
32:57But it's a mirage.
32:59You understand that, don't you?
33:04DC Malloy to all ranks.
33:06Urgent assistance required.
33:10Suspect Ellie Rebson, female 25, Madoff, heading towards the A11.
33:16She had the home advantage.
33:18Suspect vehicle heading northwest on Valley de Saint-Pierre, taking a left-left into Sandy Brook.
33:25DCI Bergerac on Brudemont.
33:39Oh shit, where did she go?
33:41DC Malloy to all ranks.
33:43Suspects, current location unknown.
33:44Please be on lookout for female 25 in a grayness and lycra.
33:49One three two two eight five.
33:51What direction was she headed when you lost her?
33:53Could she be headed to the Wakefields?
33:55No, opposite direction.
33:56She could be heading to the port.
33:58She might be trying to get off the island.
33:59I know where she's going.
34:01All units head to Marshall House on Valblazon.
34:07Just help me out here.
34:09The detective in charge of investigating your daughter-in-law's murder.
34:14You want us to what?
34:15Expose him?
34:16Undermine him?
34:18Right, the murderer's already in custody, so there's sudden interest in my business.
34:22Of which, by the way, there is nothing amiss.
34:24Okay, nothing.
34:25It's irrelevant.
34:26It's a fishing expedition.
34:27Yes, but look at the optics, Arthur.
34:31Bergerac is popular.
34:32He's admired.
34:33Where is him?
34:34You know what he did.
34:35Yeah, but what if he didn't?
34:37What if what he said was true?
34:41And Bergerac really did try to falsify that evidence.
34:44What if we're talking a whole career of corruption and criminality?
34:51Oh, and there's one other thing to consider.
34:55Remember, I'm on the board of directors of your fucking newspaper.
35:02I think that covers everything.
35:15We're going to need paramedics and a fire service.
35:17She's got a job.
35:18Wait, what?
35:18How do you know?
35:19I found her.
35:38Ellie?
35:43Ellie?
35:46Ellie?
35:48Ellie?
35:48Ellie?
35:50Ellie?
35:51My name is Jim.
35:52I'm a police officer.
35:57This is where your dad died.
36:00Isn't it?
36:02I know who he is.
36:04I know what you think Arthur Wakefield's dictum.
36:07I didn't kill Kate.
36:08Then we don't have a problem.
36:09I just sent the letters.
36:11Yeah, well, the letters aren't that big a deal.
36:14I wanted to do more.
36:16Well, yeah, I'm sure, but you didn't.
36:18I wanted to set dogs on him.
36:20That would have been too much.
36:22This rage.
36:24It's all I am, top to bottom.
36:28Everything stopped when my dad died.
36:31I may as well have jumped off with him.
36:42Why don't you tell me what happened?
36:46Arthur knew about the battery.
36:50He'd seen the plans somehow.
36:55But he paid my dad a pittance.
36:58Do you know how much money Arthur made of dad's battery?
37:02How much?
37:03Ten million.
37:05The shame my dad felt for getting tricked like that.
37:11And he watched us struggle.
37:14And it tore him apart.
37:17Obviously, he...
37:18My mum tried getting lawyers,
37:21but they said Arthur had it all sewn up tight.
37:26So, yeah, ten years later,
37:28I sent him these pathetic little letters.
37:34I know a bit about how you feel.
37:39You lose someone you love.
37:41It's a line through your life.
37:45Everything's before or it's after.
37:47They're different worlds.
37:51And I know a bit about the shame
37:54that the dad felt, too.
37:58In fact, I say I'm something of an expert there.
38:00But look, he wouldn't want this.
38:01Just as I wouldn't want this for my daughter.
38:07The waste of his life.
38:09The waste of yours.
38:10That is when Arthur Wakefield really wins.
38:20Aren't you cold?
38:23No, I'm absolutely freezing.
38:35He is winning, though, Arthur Wakefield.
38:38Look at him.
38:41Well, let's see what we can do about that.
38:42Mm-hmm.
38:59Mm-hmm.
39:13She'll be here.
39:17Gillian, God, I'm so sorry about Kate.
39:20Did you get the flowers we sent?
39:22No idea.
39:26Oh, um, sorry, this is John.
39:29He's, uh, going to help us with, um...
39:32I'm sorry for your loss, Mr Wakefield.
39:36Thanks.
39:37And who's this?
39:38It's my daughter Lily.
39:39Oh, hi Lily, you're beautiful.
39:42Yeah, she's, uh, she's a monster.
39:45Actually, Dad, do you mind just taking her for a minute?
39:47Yeah.
39:48I'll take her.
39:49No, no, no, please don't worry, she might be sick on you.
39:52You wouldn't do that to me, would you, Lily?
39:55Well, if you're sure.
39:56All right, good.
39:57Okay.
39:59Here we go.
40:11She's here.
40:18Gentlemen, I hear you have a story for me.
40:23Time now is 8.19 p.m.
40:26Also present is Miss Robson's solicitor, Mr Pat Davis.
40:30Miss Robson, you understand why we're speaking with you?
40:34Because I sent the letters to Arthur Wakefield, all of them.
40:38So you're admitting to harassment?
40:40No.
40:42I'm admitting to sending some letters with opera quotes in them.
40:46Though some early ones had lines from the Discworld novels.
40:52Okay, let's talk about intent.
40:54When you're sent...
40:55For the purposes of the recording, DC Malloy has just entered the room
40:58and handed me a file and a mobile phone.
41:02The intent's irrelevant.
41:04How can intent be irrelevant?
41:05Because, correct me if I'm wrong, but having bad thoughts about someone isn't illegal.
41:10With intent is quite...
41:10Sorry, Ellie, these photographs were on your phone.
41:12They're of the Wakefield house.
41:14They include images of the exterior, the main entrance, interior rooms,
41:20hand-drawn floor plans of all floors.
41:22Where did you get these, Ellie?
41:23Did you take them?
41:23Hang on.
41:24Where did you get these images, Ellie?
41:25Did you take them?
41:26Kate sent them to me.
41:30Why would Kate Wakefield send you these?
41:33I met her about seven months ago at a charity event.
41:37I hadn't planned on telling her about my dad,
41:40how Arthur defrauded him out of all that money.
41:42It just came out.
41:45She couldn't believe it.
41:47She said she wanted to help me.
41:50Help you do what?
41:51If there was any proof that Arthur had committed fraud,
41:55she said it would be on his laptop.
41:57She had this plan.
42:00The family were going to be at some opera thing.
42:03The baby was with the nanny.
42:04There was no CCTV.
42:06So I was supposed to sneak in the house,
42:10grab the laptop and get out.
42:12Were you inclined to make use of the information that she sent you?
42:17I was inclined.
42:20I'd love to be the sort of person that can just do that,
42:23but I'm not.
42:29The time is at 8.21 p.m.
42:31The interview is suspended.
42:37What is it?
42:38The photographs Ellie says that Kate sent her.
42:41There's no record of them on Kate's phone.
42:43Plus, the number Ellie has saved as Kate Wakefield is not Kate's official number.
42:47So how do we know Kate sent them?
42:49Go back through the exchanges.
42:50The stuff she references, the things about the Wakefields, the house,
42:54it's stuff only Kate would know.
42:56Okay, so Kate's got a second phone.
42:57Yeah, now, look at this.
42:58The last text that Kate sent to Ellie.
43:01Well, if you won't expose Arthur, I will.
43:05So the Allied Cerrocell stuff, Kate was going to take it to the press.
43:08Yeah, say she was and say Arthur found out.
43:11What do you think you do to stop her?
43:28What's happening?
43:29You need to see this.
43:32Mia and Tomas Alves have been charged with the abduction of Lily Wakefield.
43:37However, evidence has come to light that excludes them
43:40from the investigation into the murder of Kate Wakefield.
43:43But we have several other lines of inquiry that we are currently pursuing
43:46and we would like to assure the public,
43:48and in particular the Wakefield family,
43:52that whoever killed Kate will be brought to justice.
43:56Yes.
