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