00:06They talk about the five stages of grief.
00:16I think that's a myth.
00:18I think there are dozens.
00:20Or maybe it's the same five.
00:22And I'm caught in this loop.
00:27Going through the same ones.
00:29Over and over again.
00:35And of course, what drink does, what drink did, was flatten it out.
00:42Come on!
00:45You know what I realized?
00:47We say blind drunk.
00:49Our sight is obliterated.
00:53Our awareness is obliterated.

38:07And you won't see me again.
38:12Killing Kate Wakefield.
38:18There.
38:20I confess.
38:34Ah, Mia. Perfect timing.
38:39In light of recent events, I'm afraid we'll be letting you go.
38:43Effective immediately.
38:44You'll be given a month's salary.
38:46This is as per your contract.
38:48You'll see it's just above the NDA clause.
38:53You're firing me?
38:54I believe you have a set of keys to Mrs Wakefield's car.
39:00What about Lily?
39:03Yes, leave her too.
39:08I didn't tell him anything.
39:11When I spoke to the policeman, I didn't say a word.
39:15Why would you?
39:17There's nothing to say.
39:25Come on.
39:34When Barney and I visited the crime scene this morning,
39:37in the nursery we found a small bag of clean baby clothes,
39:40which looked like they'd been gathered in a hurry and shoved in a bag.
39:43On the way into the nursery, there are several small expensive items all left untouched.
39:49We've been looking at this all wrong.
39:50Kate wasn't killed because she walked in in a burglary,
39:52but an attempted abduction of Lily Wakefield.
39:55That could be a business rival, a former member of staff, someone with a grudge.
39:58It's a long list, but one name really sprang out.
40:03John Blakely.
40:05Now, for some of you, this was before your time, so a bit of background.
40:07John didn't pop onto our radar until his early 20s.
40:10Nothing major, credit card fraud, one count of resisting arrest.
40:13He got a job on a building site as a joiner, and he calmed down for a bit.
40:17But then he gets sacked after getting into a fight,
40:18and so he kidnapped the 14-year-old daughter of the construction company's CEO.
40:23What Jim is too modest to mention is that he found the girl, and he brought John to justice.
40:29John was sentenced to 15 years, released after 10 on parole.
40:33Then he applies for a job on a building site run by guess who?
40:36The Wakefields.
40:37His application is rejected out of hand.
40:40Then an ANPR camera picks up a car registered to John Blakely,
40:43half a mile from the Wakefields' house at the time of the crime.
40:47Now, look, this afternoon I spoke to John at work.
40:49He was defensive, he was evasive.
40:51He claims he found God in prison.
40:52Maybe he did.
40:53But for someone with John's history,
40:55a rejection like that from Arthur Wafer's company is all it would take.
40:58It's good.
41:00Bit of a coincidence that your prime suspect is your famous caller.
41:04That kidnapping's not the only crime I've solved, Barney.
41:06No, no.
41:07And with your wealth of police experience,
41:08you don't need me to remind you that you pitching up at John's work like that,
41:13I mean, that could be seen as harassment.
41:15No, I kept it convivial.
41:19Okay.
41:22Okay, I'd buy it.
41:23Let's bring him in.
41:25Great.
41:26We're going full bells and whistles on this.
41:27What can uniform spare?
41:28Yeah, let's go.
41:29Yeah, I'll jump in for you.
41:43What do you reckon?
41:45Five minutes before John cracks?
41:46No, thanks.
41:48I'm not a betting man.
41:49Interview, John Blakely.
41:51September 4th, 2024.
41:54Detective Chief Inspector Jim Berserak leading along with DC Steve Hobson.
42:00John.
42:01Jim.
42:02You work at Winsford's Boat Yard.
42:04This is a work placement since your release from Le Moy prison?
42:08Yes.
42:09What time did you leave work last night?
42:10Around 6.30, 6.45.
42:12What did you do after that?
42:13I drove three of my colleagues, including my boss, Tom Wisford, to a pub on the Rue Sofalaway.
42:18And having dropped your colleagues, what did you do then?
42:23I stayed.
42:24It was quiz night.
42:27We came second.
42:28It was a tiebreaker, actually.
42:31Zagreb is the capital city of which country?
42:35What time did you leave the pub?
42:3711.30.
42:38At which point, I drove my colleagues to their respective homes.
42:42I dropped Tom off last.
42:44At Clifton.
42:47At 12.15.
42:50Kate Wakefield was murdered around 9pm.
42:55Wasn't she?
42:58Or maybe a little after.
43:06The hell was he thinking?
43:08Would it have taken five minutes to find that out?
43:21Hundreds of customers have been underlit orders.
43:23The collapse of the firm is like...
43:26It's transformed the star and you know how it feels.
43:30Too rich, too high.
43:33Too far.
43:36Too soon.
43:38Police haven't shared any further information at this time, but local sources have named him as John Blakely.
43:44It's okay. Leave it on.
43:45Mr. Blakely was convicted of child abduction after a high-profile police investigation ten years ago.
43:51But his arrest and subsequent release are something of an embarrassment for the police.
43:56And questions are already being asked about their handling of the inquiry.
44:01Back to Rob in the studio.
