Death Valley (2025) Season 2 Episode 3
Transcript
00:26Betrayal has consequences.
00:30Betrayal has mercy.
00:33I can change.
00:35And change you shall, my dear.
00:37Perhaps you will show more wisdom.
00:39As an owl.
00:42I'm hurt!
00:43Average.
00:46Perfect.
00:47Wouldn't change a thing.
00:48Let's get the owl hander in, please. Quickly.
00:50Just a quick touch-up. Lovely.
00:52How's that mascara holding up, darling?
00:54I know I will spit when he shouts.
00:56There you go. My electrolytes, please. I'm dehydrating.
00:59How many times?
01:00Guys, this is a live set.
01:03Polyethylene plastics do not belong on a medieval Welsh hillside.
01:06Sorry, mate. My bad.
01:07Like I was saying, people think Bruce Lee was hard, but I could have taken it.
01:11Sorry, can I get my smoothie, please?
01:13Absolutely, I want it.
01:15Ben, can you bring Olivia's soy spirulina smoothie to set, please?
01:18But don't stress. Seriously, I don't want to be a pain.
01:20Olivia doesn't want to be a pain.
01:23Ben.
01:25Hello?
01:26Don't have you seen Ben?
01:27No, not since lunch.
01:28What's happened?
01:30Ben!
01:31Ben!
01:31We need you on set now!
01:34Also, Ben, bring a mop.
01:35Someone spooked the owl and he's whitewashed the set.
01:53Can't believe we're on a film set.
01:55Movies!
01:56We're in a caravan.
01:58I'm getting flashbacks to holidays in Rill.
02:00Ooh, curry.
02:03Mmm, smells like a coma.
02:06Looks like a good one too.
02:08Almandy.
02:08This is a crime scene, not Saturday Kitchen, so...
02:11Mmm, sorry, I haven't had lunch yet.
02:15Er, blood-tinged plume of froth at the mouth and nose.
02:18From fluid build-up in the lungs.
02:21Looks like an opioid overdose.
02:23Heroin?
02:23Mmm, not necessarily.
02:25We won't know till the blood results.
02:27Ooh.
02:28He had one of those mega-posh organiser notebooks.
02:32Yeah, I keep getting targeted ads for these.
02:34You, er, tick off your goals, sort your life out.
02:37Hmm.
02:38You should go in.
02:39I've known cats more organised than you.
02:40No chance.
02:41They cost over a hundred quid.
02:42Plus, I've got my own organiser.
02:48Yeah, I'm allowing, ma'am.
02:50Hmm?
02:50This is Ash, the on-set medic.
02:52Ah.
02:53Tell her what you told me.
02:54Really?
02:54The joke about the nun and the horse.
02:56It's a bit blue.
02:57Nope, not that.
02:58Ben's movements.
02:59Oh, right.
03:00Yeah, yeah, I saw Ben.
03:02Asked him to join me for lunch,
03:03but then he took his into Miss Whitmore's trailer.
03:06Who found the body?
03:07Oh, one of the costume bird... people.
03:10Yeah.
03:10They alerted me.
03:11I entered the trailer at 14, 15 hours.
03:14Tried resuscitation, but it was game over.
03:18So, what are we looking at?
03:19You can tell me I'm ex-forces.
03:21Er, we're looking at you leaving
03:22and making a statement to DC Chowdhury.
03:24Okay, bye-bye.
03:26Alright.
03:27CID don't do Bring Your Daughter to Work Day, no.
03:29No, don't.
03:30Hey, no.
03:31Hey, Kayleigh!
03:31Oh.
03:33Teenager.
03:34Wants to come to meet Olivia Whitmore, whatever that is.
03:37Oh, yeah, she's the star of this.
03:39It's a big Game of Thrones-y style series
03:41based on the Mabinogion.
03:42Wizards and Dragons.
03:44I can't stand that stuff.
03:45Right, what have we got?
03:47Ben Williams, 22-year-old runner.
03:49So, an athlete.
03:51Production runner.
03:52It's like an assistant.
03:53His body was found in Olivia's trailer.
03:56Suspected overdose, but something feels off.
03:59Go on.
04:00Well, he took his lunch in there.
04:02Curry, colma, good one.
04:04But he ate all of it.
04:06Normally, opioids suppress your appetite.
04:09Plus, look at this snazzy notebook.
04:12I mean, how many heroin users do you know
04:14with colour-coded to-do lists?
04:17Curry and a notebook.
04:19We need more than that.
04:21Have you finished those overtime reports?
04:23Obviously, I'm going to have to let them go.
04:26That was a joke.
04:28I was joking.
04:29I'm on it, sir.
04:30Malowan, don't neglect the basics.
04:32It's like getting dressed in the morning.
04:35Yes, you've got your exciting shirts, your fancy blouses,
04:38but where would you be without your underwear?
04:41Your pants, your socks.
04:42The basics.
04:43You see what I'm saying?
04:44Yeah, I think you're talking to a female officer about your underwear, sir.
04:48What?
04:49No, I...
04:50Yeah.
04:51Yeah, I better, um...
04:57Hey, maybe next time we could do this in my new flat.
04:59What do you think?
05:01Oh, nice when it's furnished.
05:03It is furnished.
05:04Is it?
05:05It's very bare.
05:06It looks like a bloody dentist.
05:08Where's your trinkets?
05:09Your bric-a-brac?
05:11I've got a Billy Buck case.
05:13Well, saying them all.
05:15Now, our victim.
05:17I think you're right.
05:19Glaring character, inconsistencies.
05:21So you agree with me?
05:23Murder?
05:24Oh, most certainly.
05:25It's a smart production one.
05:26You get to know anyone's secrets.
05:28Who's up to what?
05:29Do you think you'll turn this off?
05:32It's very distracting having my face staring back at me
05:34when I'm trying to deliberate.
05:36I can't believe I'm going to meet Atkins.
05:39Yes!
05:40Yes, it'll be great to see Randy again, actually.
05:43Mind you, they're quite the meteoric rise.
05:46Obviously, we're going to have to start with Olivia.
05:48What was Ben doing in her trailer?
05:51Hey, maybe you can ask if you can have a go.
05:55You know, do some acting on it.
05:57Ask if I can have a go?
05:59It's a multi-million dollar TV production,
06:01not a pub pool table.
06:03Anyway, I don't act any more.
06:06You clearly still love it, though.
06:08All that glaring character inconsistency stuff.
06:12I have left the world of television behind
06:15and I do not miss it one iota.
06:18Oh, the bathroom.
06:22All hands to the pump to extrude drama from thin air.
06:27It's all right, carry on, chaps.
06:28It's all right.
06:29You okay?
06:30Can I get you some cans?
06:31Oh, no, I don't drink when I'm on duty.
06:34No, no, cans are headphones.
06:36It's an industry term.
06:38It's all right.
06:39Hiya.
06:41Here we go.
06:47I'm actually quite nervous.
06:48She's like a proper movie star.
06:50I've seen her on the red carpet, you know,
06:52looking all glam and posh.
06:55You probably think I'm proper basic.
06:58Hiya.
06:58D.I.
06:59Malawan.
06:59Mid Wales Police.
07:00Can we ask you some questions, please?
07:02Yeah, sure love.
07:03Come in.
07:04Mind that step, though.
07:05Nearly went arse of a tit earlier.
07:07Oh, she's proper basic, just like you.
07:14Hey, the trailer's certainly had more bells and whistles
07:17since my leading man days.
07:19Oh, wow.
07:21Did you used to act too?
07:22I've dabbled.
07:23Yes.
07:25Do I detect a hint of a Port Talbot?
07:30Like so?
07:32Yeah.
07:33Fertile ground for the craft.
07:35Burton, of course.
07:37Yeah.
07:37Throw away respect, tradition, form and ceremonia astute,
07:42for you have but mistook me all this while.
07:53Can we ask you a few questions about Ben Williams?
07:56Um, did he often have his lunch in here?
07:59Um, sometimes, yeah.
08:02Well, isn't that a bit unusual?
08:04Mm.
08:05OK, I'm just gonna say it.
08:06Er, I let him hang out here because I felt bad for losing it with him last week.
08:14I shouted at him on set and, oh, God, please don't think I'm a diva.
08:18Of course not.
08:19No, no, no.
08:20But you brought me the wrong muffin.
08:22I'm not allowed wheat, alcohol, gluten, dairy, sugar or preservatives.
08:26And what else is there?
08:27Chips.
08:27Or starch.
08:28Oh.
08:29Yeah, so I just have this coconut flour, courgette, pulp chia seed muffin.
08:34Oh.
08:35It sounds wrong, but it's actually really not.
08:38And it's my only treat.
08:39So when Ben messed it up, I just, yeah, just lost it.
08:45Oh, my God, is that the Bledeweth headdress?
08:47Mm-hmm.
08:49I always wanted to be Bledeweth at school.
08:53Yeah.
08:53I wasn't cool enough, though.
08:55I was always the owl.
08:57You do look a bit like an owl.
08:58Shut up, John Chappell.
08:59I do not look like an owl.
09:01You're cool enough to be Bledeweth.
09:03Shut up, Olivia Whitmore.
09:05I'm not cool, am I?
09:06Yeah.
09:08Hey, come on, try it on.
09:09Really?
09:10Mm-hmm.
09:10Oh.
09:12Oh.
09:14Oh, my God, I'm Bledeweth.
09:19I'm Bledeweth.
09:21Do it, too.
09:24Did Ben have any, er, enemies?
09:29Benemies?
09:30He got on people's tits.
09:32Only one who liked him was Randall, weirdly.
09:35How's that weird?
09:36He's nice enough to important people,
09:38just, er, not everyone else.
09:41But...
09:42Yeah, he did go out of his way to be nice to Ben.
09:54Maybe drop the intense smile.
10:00Randy!
10:01He lives!
10:03John!
10:04Johnny!
10:05How long's it been?
10:06Too long, mate!
10:08Too long!
10:09Randy!
10:10Randy!
10:10This is Detective Inspector Janie Malawi.
10:14Please, call me Randall.
10:15Can't stand Randy.
10:17Come on in.
10:21Well, here, both Caesar and Atkins to me.
10:24Yeah.
10:24Sorry, er, this is a bit of a cheese dream.
10:26I'm a bit of a Caesar fan.
10:28Oh, yeah.
10:29But you're so young.
10:31God, no, fun little show.
10:33Yeah.
10:34All changed for me now.
10:36Things have moved on a bit since your day, Johnny.
10:38My day?
10:39Hardly a relic.
10:40I only hung my boots up in 2015.
10:43Not 1915, mate.
10:44Yeah, we're here to talk about Ben Williams.
10:47Can you think of anything that could have got Ben killed?
10:49Er, any secrets?
10:51Secrets?
10:52On this production?
10:53No.
10:54Someone even leaked a story about me.
10:55Oh, the press.
10:57Oh, the press.
10:59Oh, how retro.
11:00No, no, it's the socials.
11:02Yes, my PR team shut it down.
11:04Apart for the course of being a big star.
11:06So, you are a policeman now, Jan?
11:10Consultant, yes.
11:12Ultimately, far more rewarding than acting.
11:15Finally using my talents to do something profoundly truthful.
11:21Good.
11:23Now, there's no shame in exploring other avenues when things get quiet.
11:27Things didn't get quiet, mate.
11:30When I retired, I was riding a 12 million viewer wave.
11:34Yes, the Sunday Times actually said...
11:36Er, back...
11:37Let's go back to the dead guy.
11:39Yes, back to him.
11:40And, erm...
11:41Yeah.
11:42Did you see Ben on the morning before he died?
11:47No.
11:48No.
11:49I would have either been on set or here having a massage.
11:53Essential.
11:54I cracked some vertebrae falling from a horse in Bridgerton.
11:56Did you catch me in Bridgerton, John?
11:59Don't watch much telly, mate.
12:00Telly?
12:01How charming.
12:02No, it's all about the streamers nowadays.
12:04Acting's acting, Randall.
12:06Do you remember what I always used to say to you?
12:08When you boil it down, we do the exact same thing as Larry Olivier and Humphrey Bogart.
12:13Randall!
12:15We need you in costume.
12:16The Owls being a diva.
12:18I'm sorry.
12:20One really ought to knock before entering an actor's trailer.
12:24Easy mistake to make.
12:25I remember starting out myself.
12:26So much to take in, young lady.
12:28I know.
12:28John.
12:29John.
12:30This is Magenta May.
12:32The director.
12:33Oscar winner, actually.
12:35Oh.
12:37So sorry, I...
12:39Oh, that's cool.
12:40It's fine.
12:41Don't sweat it.
12:44I was never a diva when I was the owl.
12:47Just saying.
12:49Up against it.
12:50Mm.
12:51Yes.
12:53Oh, wow.
12:55How was I to know she's the director?
12:58She looks about six.
13:00And Randall, did you see how you treated me?
13:03I just saw two men waving the willies at each other.
13:05Abandonment issues?
13:06Oh, possibly.
13:08Chapel.
13:08Yes.
13:09Bloss of a nurturing father figure.
13:11Oh.
13:12Left to face the world alone.
13:13Yes.
13:14Are you listening?
13:15Sorry.
13:16No.
13:16Liv, text me.
13:17Olivia, text me.
13:19Thought you'd like this, Liv.
13:21Should you be texting a suspect?
13:23How is she so down to earth?
13:26You know she's going out with Matty Healey?
13:28Yeah.
13:29The 1975.
13:30Tay Tay's ex.
13:31Oh, Tay Tay's ex.
13:33Oh, why didn't you say?
13:36But it does make Randall suspicious.
13:40I can't see him being nice to anyone, let alone a lowly runner.
13:44PHONE RINGS
13:46Ma'am, I've been looking through Ben's belongings.
13:49Yes?
13:49Well, it seems he had a ring in his pocket.
13:53Didn't think much of it at first, but I've had a closer look and there's an inscription.
13:58I've sent you a pic.
14:02Carrie T. Emir.
14:05Who's Emir?
14:07A production crew list has a set decorator named Emir Davis.
14:11Thanks, Chowdhury.
14:12Why would Ben have a ring like that and not wear it?
14:16Was he having a secret relationship with Emir?
14:20I don't know.
14:21But I know where to find out.
14:23The epicenter of all on-set gossip.
14:27The make-up bus.
14:31Stepping on.
14:36Hello.
14:38Hello.
14:43Oh!
14:44Oh!
14:45Oh, he frightened the light!
14:47Don't eat that!
14:47Oh, no!
14:49Oh, God!
14:49Wow!
14:50Oh, my God!
14:51He's silly sod!
14:52What are you doing here?
14:53No.
14:54You're not in this, are you?
14:55No, no.
14:56We're in a consulting capacity.
14:58Helping the police with their enquiries.
15:00You know, Bill?
15:00Bloody hell, they tell anyone nowadays, wouldn't they?
15:02Oh, just, yeah.
15:03Yeah.
15:03Let me have a sec.
15:04And I'll bring us both a cuppa.
15:06Oh.
15:06And I will reveal all.
15:08Chance will be a funny thing.
15:09Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
15:11My man!
15:12Emmit, set decorator?
15:14Di Janey Malawan.
15:15Hang on, I'm just working on my stylectites.
15:18What's that?
15:19Is that a gym thing, or...?
15:21No.
15:22They're cave rock formations.
15:25Calcium carbonate deposits accumulated into an oblique chronic pinnacle.
15:30Oh, the drippy icicle thingies.
15:33We swap them about in set, so it looks like we're filming in different caves.
15:37Ah, fascinating.
15:39And if it's rock formations you're into, I've got a folder on my phone
15:42of every cave at the Welsh coast.
15:45I took some wonderful ones I've done wrong off last week.
15:47Kind of up against it with the investigation.
15:49Otherwise, definitely.
15:49No, I wondered if you recognised this.
15:53This was found on Ben Williams' body.
15:57Were you two an item?
15:58No, no, no.
16:00That rings for my girlfriend.
16:01Hmm.
16:01I thought I'd lost that in the caves.
16:04I was trying to form a helictite out of resin, and it's such a twisty girl.
16:08Please, please, please, get to the point.
16:10Well, it must have fallen out of my pocket, and I guess Ben found it.
16:13Do you remember anything unusual from the day Ben, er, you know, er, he died?
16:21No.
16:22Okay, er...
16:23No, no, Ben.
16:25Although, let's think.
16:26Mm-hmm.
16:28This.
16:30This was weird.
16:32I'm used to people leaving stuff on set.
16:34Like, you know, coffee cups, scripts, that kind of thing.
16:36But this...
16:38This struck me.
16:40This looks like somebody's medication.
16:43Hmm.
16:43Yeah, I'll have to take this in.
16:46What's interesting is that it was left in a scene with a dragon.
16:50Oh.
16:50And polypropylene's actually very heat-resistant.
16:54Goodbye.
16:55Goodbye.
16:56Bye-bye.
16:57Bye-bye.
16:58Bye-bye.
16:59Bye-bye.
17:02What about Ben the runner?
17:04Well, I heard he and, um, Olivia had a big row.
17:06No.
17:07No.
17:08She's good as gold, Liv.
17:09She's got a lot going on.
17:11Us makeup artists can always tell.
17:14Hands, nails, hair.
17:16Dead giveaways.
17:17No, she's a sweetheart.
17:19Not like Randall.
17:20No, head wedged firmly up his backside now.
17:24Not many people like him here.
17:27Except Ash, the medic.
17:29Randall brought him on, actually.
17:31And he had the old medic sacked.
17:33He's all right, Ash.
17:35And if you want something stronger than an aspirin, he's your man.
17:39Hmm.
17:40Sounds like the sort of thing Ben wouldn't approve of.
17:43He did try and get Ash sacked once.
17:46For slipping a hangover cure in an actor's drink.
17:48It's just vitamins and caffeine.
17:51But Ben said it was spiking and he felt triggered.
17:55Honestly.
17:58John, I was so sorry to hear about Ellen.
18:02Yes.
18:03Thanks, darling.
18:05Yeah, it's been...
18:07Well, you know, yeah.
18:09Hmm.
18:11How about you?
18:12You and Charlie still together?
18:14No.
18:15No, it didn't work out.
18:17Oh.
18:17I try and take pleasure in the simple things now.
18:20What's that, long walks and log fires?
18:22Sitting down and rose.
18:28Olivia's so normal for a megastar.
18:30We're actually really similar.
18:33Oh, yeah.
18:35Does she joel in her moustache in front of Married at First Sight Australia as well?
18:39No.
18:39No, but she is proper down to earth.
18:42Right, our body.
18:44Toxicology showed high levels of morphine,
18:47but the interesting thing is you were right.
18:49I knew it!
18:51What about?
18:51There's no way it was an accidental overdose.
18:54Far too much in the system.
18:55Someone poisoned him.
18:56So it's definitely murder?
18:57Yep.
18:58We tested that curry container you found in the bin.
19:00Veggie coma doused in the stuff.
19:03Yeah, good job you didn't lick the bowl.
19:05You could have been the next victim.
19:06As if I would lick a bowl from the bin!
19:10That's happened like twice, come on!
19:14Now, I've spoken to the catering crew.
19:17Ben didn't order the veggie coma.
19:19So how can they be sure?
19:21They must serve hundreds of lunches a day.
19:23There's a list.
19:24Most people have the curry.
19:25Magenta, the director, has her own personal chef.
19:28Course she does.
19:30What's up with Bergerac?
19:31He's feeling old.
19:33He is old?
19:34Not so decrepit he can't hear every word you're saying.
19:37So, what else you got?
19:39I've been looking at Ben Williams' social media.
19:42He's got some serious gear.
19:44Designer headphones.
19:46New laptop.
19:47This is what's been bugging me about the notebook.
19:49I mean, Ben was a runner.
19:51Minimum wage.
19:52How could he afford any of this stuff?
19:54Maybe he was all nicked.
19:55Might be while he was in Olivia's trailer.
19:57You know, looking for something to steal.
19:59Hardly tallies with Dawn's description of a straight-laced stick.
20:03Good point, Chappell.
20:06So, are you actually talking to anyone?
20:09Apart from John Chappell's inner monologue, obviously.
20:12It's still early stages, sir.
20:14This is a high-profile case.
20:16You're a DI now.
20:18More's expected of you.
20:19I know more's expected of me,
20:21which is why I've not had a day off in the last two months
20:23and I'm scraping by on five hours' sleep,
20:24so just back off, okay?
20:29Is everything all right, my lover?
20:31I mean, do you want me to get in more help, or...?
20:35No, no, no.
20:36It's fine.
20:37Yeah, er...
20:38Just lots going on,
20:39but er...
20:39I'm on top of it.
20:41Surfing the wave.
20:43Co-bunga.
20:45Okay, well, if you say, yeah.
20:48Oh, erm...
20:49I needed to let me know
20:50if you're going to bring in Olivia Whitmore for questioning.
20:52Yeah, I was hoping to ask her to sign some stuff.
20:55Not for me.
20:55For Kayleigh.
20:56I'm still in the doghouse,
20:58and er...
20:58I have to get her to start talking to me
21:00before we go to centre-parks.
21:06I did some digging last night.
21:09Look.
21:11TV medic cleared over death?
21:13Yeah.
21:13TV shoot six years ago.
21:15A lighting rig fell on a crew member's head.
21:18Ash checked them,
21:19and didn't send them to A&E,
21:21and they later died in their sleep.
21:23An enquiry cleared Ash,
21:24but people still blamed him.
21:27Surely Dawn would have known about this,
21:29won't you tell me?
21:30Plus, medic,
21:31who's more likely to have opioids.
21:33Oh, leave him to me.
21:34A wannabe half a male like that
21:35is much more likely to open up
21:37to a rough-and-ready man's man like me.
21:39Oh, your little silk scarf is drooping.
21:41Oh, so it is now.

29:00and action
29:03what brings you here shepherd
29:07your dragons sir you've decimated my flock you would have them starve you would do well to know your
29:15place
29:17my place is with my flock you dare answer back to me
29:24aye
29:26they may just be sheep to you but they allow me to feed my family my community
29:33to create life itself
29:39you speak of magic but a man raising a flock caring for them leading them to the very end whilst
29:50just sustaining the lives of the whores he love
29:53well that's the real magic you
29:58your powers are mere chip tricks by comparison
30:03all right
30:07take this man away
30:10okay cut
30:13yes
30:14Yes!
30:16Johnny, that was incredible.
30:19Uh, Randall, it's taken from my sight, not take this man away.
30:24Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
30:26Yeah, can we get him a chair, please?
30:28He looks like he could do with a bit of a sit-down.
30:31Then we had to do nine, no, ten more takes
30:33because his eye kept twitching.
30:35Oh, I do wish you'd seen it.
30:37So, what have you learnt then?
30:39From playing hooky with your new best friend.
30:42Oh, what is your problem?
30:43I'm maintaining a professional distance.
30:46OK, so I might have a new friend.
30:50I haven't had many since, Sian, this never happens to me.
30:53Listen, it's clearly blinded you to the fact
30:55that she's been lying to us from the start.
30:57Liv hasn't been lying to me, what are you on about?
30:59She didn't send back her iced latte.
31:02Oh, well, obviously a murderer then.
31:05She makes no fuss about being given an undrinkable drink
31:08and we're supposed to believe she shouted at Ben over a muffin?
31:12No, it was something much bigger than a muffin.
31:15Something big enough for her to kill for.
31:19What's your evidence?
31:21This.
31:22Now, she told us that she shouted at Ben on the set,
31:26so I paid a visit to the sound recordist.
31:28Now, she took a very dim view on breaking the code of conduct,
31:31but I knew her mental.
31:34Yes.
31:35Roger Glass.
31:36A great man.
31:37We did an episode of Sharp together.
31:39I played the shouty in Irassable.
31:41Oh, just get to the point.
31:43Right, well, she gave me Olivia's sound files for the day.
31:48Now, Ben is very faint,
31:50but Olivia's mic picks him up.
31:54I take no pleasure in doing this, you know.
31:57Drop the genius act and just play the tape.
31:59You're clearly gagging, too.
32:01You can't do this, Ben.
32:03Oh, I can.
32:05Unless you want me to tell everyone about your little secret.
32:07I can't believe you're listening on my private conversations.
32:10And I can't believe a word you say, apparently.
32:14What was the secret?
32:17I'm saying nothing.
32:20I think you're a lot like me.
32:22And like me,
32:25everything changed when you were a teen.
32:28Your whole world went upside down.
32:31And now, everyone thinks you've got it all.
32:34Things are great, but you don't want it.
32:36You want safety and normality,
32:40which is why you were having an affair with Emhyr.
32:45No idea what you're talking about.
32:47You're such a good actor, I would have believed you.
32:50If it wasn't for this.
32:52Someone posted a picture of you
32:54at Danarogov Caves.
32:56The exact same day as Emhyr.
32:58Who doesn't enjoy your care?
33:00Actually, quite a lot of people.
33:01They're quite niche.
33:02Ben was in your trailer stealing this ring
33:06so he could blackmail you about Emhyr,
33:09which is why you killed him.
33:12No, I wanted the truth to come out.
33:17You're right.
33:18I don't want this anymore.
33:21Definitely wouldn't kill for it.
33:22But it'd mean the end of you and Matty Healy.
33:24There is no me and Matty Healy.
33:26Oh.
33:27It's a PR sham my agent set up.
33:29But Emhyr, though, he's like...
33:32normal.
33:33Isn't he?
33:35He cooks me Spag Bowl.
33:38Interview terminated at 622.
33:42Look, I'm sorry, OK?
33:44It's just you lied.
33:45Yeah, we're done.
33:51Go.
33:51I just don't see her as our killer.
33:54I don't trust her,
33:55but maybe somebody killed to protect her.
33:58Emhyr.
33:59God.
33:59He wouldn't need to use opioids.
34:01He could just bore Ben to death.
34:03I can't think without my morning injection of caffeine.
34:09Would you care to join me in a double espresso?
34:12No, thanks.
34:13Even though those tiny cups make my hands look normal size.
34:15I've been reading up about caffeine.
34:17It's not good for you.
34:18Plus, there's loads of side effects.
34:23I think I know who did it.
34:24I think I do, too.
34:25But I don't think it's who you think it is.
34:27But I know why you might think that.
34:29You just haven't thought enough about why they would think that.
34:31Just shut up and let's go.
34:33Right.
34:40Calling me in on my day off.
34:41I'm supposed to be Zoom mentoring a RADA student.
34:43This won't take long.
34:45Just need to clear a few things up.
34:47How was lunch, Ash?
34:49Vegetarian lasagna look good on the menu.
34:51Oh, no, you can't have that, can you?
34:53No, because of your carnivore diet.
34:55Yet, on the day of Ben's murder,
34:58catering said that you ordered the veggie korma?
35:00Uh, yeah.
35:03Well, they just had it down as curry.
35:06I thought it would be lambuna or something, not rabbit food.
35:10I binned it.
35:11No, you didn't.
35:12No, you spoke to Ben after you both ordered lunch.
35:17He'd ordered chicken much more up your street,
35:19so you switched the meals without him noticing.
35:23Okay, okay.
35:25I swapped it.
35:26I didn't say anything because it looks bad,
35:29but I didn't kill him.
35:31Why would I?
35:32Because he knew about your little drug sideline.
35:37Strong opioids.
35:39Thanks to Emir's keen eye for detail,
35:41we know that an empty bottle of opioids
35:43was left on the set the day Ben died.
35:47It's more due to the high visibility of your modern tempered plastic.
35:50No.
35:51Not now, Bibs, yeah?
35:52Okay, okay, okay.
35:53You can't link that to me.
35:55That could have been anyone's.
35:56And even if it was true, I wouldn't kill someone over it.
36:00No.
36:01Your reputation was already tarnished
36:03after the negligent death of the crew member on a set years ago.
36:07But someone's reputation stood to be ruined.
36:12Didn't it, Randall?
36:13Oh, God.
36:15This acid is really chafing my bits.
36:18Oh, God, I'm getting a rash.
36:19I'm going to Crete next week.
36:21Er, yeah, erm, we're just in the middle of something right here,
36:24and we're just getting to the good bits,
36:25so do you mind...
36:27popping off?
36:30See?
36:32Come to set Linda.
36:34No, no, no.
36:35Leave the set Linda.
36:36It was you who left the empty bottle on set.
36:40You've been taking the painkillers for your back pain
36:43ever since you fell off that horse.
36:44Me?
36:45Drugs?
36:46It's absolute rubbish.
36:48Of course, yes.
36:50The side effects of opioid addiction include mood swings at a dry mouth.
36:57That's why you always use ash.
36:59The only medic dodgy enough to get you the drugs you need to perform.
37:06Ben found out I was blackmailing you.
37:09So what happened, Randy, eh?
37:12Showered him in gifts.
37:13So I gave him a few things.
37:16I'm not a killer.
37:17John.
37:18Johnny.
37:19Please, we're old pals.
37:21No.
37:22You're not a killer.
37:24You're just cancelled after this.
37:27You wouldn't kill Ben.
37:29In fact, nobody wanted to kill Ben.
37:33The opioids were in Ash's curry because somebody wanted to kill Ash.
37:38Because he was a danger.
37:41No, no.
37:42I'm not.
37:42I'm a medic.
37:43I help people.
37:44Like with your hangover cures.
37:46Which would have harmed your unborn baby, wouldn't it, Olivia?
37:51Throwing up after the big night out.
37:53When we all know you don't drink alcohol.
37:56It's morning sickness.
37:58Can't a girl have seven secrets?
37:59It all started a few weeks ago when Ash slipped you one of his hangover cures into your soy spirulita
38:07smoothie.
38:08Filled with caffeine and every vitamin under the sun.
38:11Not good for a pregnant woman.
38:13Yeah?
38:13Okay.
38:14So what if he did?
38:16I didn't drink it.
38:17No, you're hyper-vigilant about everything you consume.
38:20But Ash's gung-ho attitude, risking Olivia's health, her baby's health, was enough to tip someone else over the edge.
38:31Wasn't it Dawn?
38:35What?
38:42Oh, come on darling, you know me.
38:45I do, Dawny.
38:46And that's what makes this so hard.
38:50I know your intentions were good.
38:55Ash joins the crew, everyone knows he got away with murder.
38:58It was a ticking time bomb.
39:00You also knew that Olivia was pregnant working with her hair and nails every day.
39:05Makeup artists could just tell.
39:07She could have got hurt.
39:09We're like family.
39:10No, it was more than just that.
39:12The crew member who died six years ago.
39:16I should have put two and two together.
39:20It was your Charlie, wasn't it?
39:24That's why it didn't work out.
39:27How can someone just get away with that?
39:30Everyone knew it was his fault.
39:32You intercepted his curry out of the catering truck and filled it with enough morphine to kill him.
39:39Dodgy medic, high on his own supply.
39:42Nobody would have thought it was murder, and you had your own supply of strong opioids.
39:50What is it, Dawny?
39:52Cancer?
39:56Oh, Dawny.
39:59Lung.
40:01Terminal.
40:03I'm not told anyone.
40:05Well, you don't need to tell me.
40:08I've lived it, remember?
40:10Ellen?
40:11He shouldn't be allowed to hurt people.
40:14Pocket old black love?
40:15Oh, no, I didn't know he'd give it to Ben.
40:18Poor lamb, he had his whole life ahead of him.
40:21Yeah.
40:21He could have gone on to blackmail even more great actors.
40:24I'm so sorry, Dawny.
40:26No, no, no.
40:27No, I'll be okay.
40:28I've got no pension, what am I going to do, you know?
40:31Work till I keel over.
40:34At least in jail, I've got bed and board.
40:38Shall we?
40:51You okay?
40:53Yeah.
40:56What's that?
40:58Oh, Magenta sent me some of her work.
41:01She's very good.
41:02So she wants me to be in her next project.
41:05I don't know.
41:07Well, seriously?
41:08That's brilliant.
41:10Congratulations, John Chappell.
41:13Just heard the news.
41:14Well done.
41:14Well, it's not in concrete at the moment,
41:16but I don't even know what the show is.
41:19What?
41:19I'm talking about the arrest.
41:21Good work, Malowan.
41:22Right, is Olivia around?
41:24In her trailer.
41:25Yeah.
41:25Great.
41:26Got a poster my daughter wants sign in.
41:28And some hot pants.
41:33No, no, no.
41:36So much for being cancelled.
41:39Look, he's checked himself into rehab.
41:42Look, my dry mouth hell.
41:44Look at that, look.
41:47I had hoped he'd use this to turn himself around,
41:50but no, he's nothing.
41:51He's playing the media game.
41:53Well, I'm afraid he's on the slippery slope
41:57to eating kangaroo balls.
41:59Apparently, Olivia's giving up acting.
42:02After she wraps on this job,
42:04she's off to lead a quiet life with Emir.
42:07Well...
42:08Maybe, away from celebrity,
42:10you can make amends.
42:12Nah, you men have trust your mates, aren't you?
42:14Even if that means them telling you
42:16that your flat looks like a dentist's.
42:19Yeah, probably was a bit insensitive there, didn't I?
42:23Actually, I got you a housewarming gift
42:28to bring up for it.
42:30Ah!
42:33Now...
42:35I know you didn't like playing the owl,
42:38but that is what you are.
42:42Small, tenacious, solitary, but smart.
42:46Smart!
42:47Ta-da!
42:49Oh, I love it!
42:53No, it's nothing.
42:54It's absolutely nothing at all.
42:56There's a little notebook there, though.
42:58Oh!
42:59Oh, thank you, John Chaffell.
43:03Yeah, and...
43:05And I didn't miss your big scene.
43:08I...
43:08I heard what you said about me...
43:11to Randall.
43:13Oh, my neck!
43:14My neck!
43:17That's...
43:17Yeah, I asked your...
43:19your friend on...
43:20to give me the sound files
43:21so I could hear it back.
43:24What did you think?
43:26Of the scene?
43:27Yeah, yeah.
43:29It's not my kind of thing, you know.
43:31But it's, erm...
43:33sounded a bit hammy, but...
43:40It's a bit...
43:44unrealistic, you know.
43:45And the accent...
43:47The emotional truth?
43:49Oh, God, I wish I hadn't opened my mouth.
43:51You were brilliant, okay?
43:52Fantastic!
43:54Curl surprise!
43:55It went straight over your head!
43:57You're just calling me short now?
43:58No, I'm calling you a philistine.
43:59I don't know what that means.
44:00You're a close...
44:17To be bold in the location...
44:19Oh, God!
44:26To be bold in the office, please...
