Death Valley (2025) Season 2 Episode 6
Transcript
00:22Dennis Dyer was the best bloody groundsman this club has ever known.
00:26And it was my privilege to have known him since 1992.
00:30A time when I played the best rugby of my life.
00:37But today is not about that.
00:39He leaves behind Sue.
00:41Now, this is an octa for six.
00:42I mean, he would be when you drown in.
00:45Horrible way to go.
00:47Poor, poor dad.
00:49Does he do many funerals to your dad?
00:51Great, isn't he? Why are you doing that?
00:53Open flames next to Wicker. I'm a firefighter. I can't have that.
00:57But today is not all sad.
00:59Amongst Dennis' possessions, Sue has unearthed home video footage of the 1993 District Cup Final against Trevaldwin.
01:10A game in which I'm sure everyone remembers.
01:12I scored to an injury.
01:14Now, Rachel, I set it all up for us so we can watch it in tribute to Dennis.
01:27Come on, Rach. In your own time, love?
01:30She was, yeah. I'll go look for her now.
01:33What a game it was.
01:35And what a try.
01:36Still talked about to this day.
01:38Terry, maybe talk more about Dennis and less about yourself.
01:41I'm just trying to lighten things up. It's not all about death, is it?
01:47She's dead.
01:48Rachel!
01:50She's dead.
01:52What do you mean she's dead?
01:54She's dead.
01:55Rachel.
01:57Rachel Jenkins.
02:00The best bloody chairperson this club has ever had.
02:21Cause of death looks to be blunt force trauma.
02:24A trophy fair near the body is likely the weapon.
02:27Ooh.
02:27Never held a trophy before.
02:29Always wanted one.
02:31Josh Daniel's back of the year.
02:34Is that, like, rear of the year?
02:36Back's a rugby position.
02:38Take it you're not a fan.
02:39Ooh, no.
02:41I'm gonna miss these deeper meaningfuls when you're gone.
02:43Please.
02:44No emotional goodbyes.
02:46Anyway, I'll only be gone a year.
02:48Just need to get this wrapped up by Friday.
02:51Ooh.
02:52Ooh.
02:53Hello.
02:57Laptop adapter.
02:59Bit to the story.
03:00She'd gone to get her laptop.
03:02No sign of it anywhere, though.
03:05Looks like she brought her drink with her.
03:08Hmm.
03:08Rum and Coke.
03:09Oh, I like her style.
03:11Reckon we'd have got on.
03:14Eeeeee, Clark's here.
03:15Good luck with that.
03:16Come on.
03:18Sir!
03:19Looking sharp.
03:20New shirt.
03:22Malawan.
03:23Who's our victim then?
03:25Rachel Jenkins, 42, club chairwoman.
03:28Went to get her laptop, whacked over the head.
03:31No sign of the laptop near her body or in her office.
03:34So, she disturbs a thief, they whack her over the head and then leg it.
03:39I dunno.
03:40Seems a bit violent.
03:41Why not just push her?
03:42Something feels off.
03:43Yeah, well I don't want feelings, Malawan.
03:45I want evidence.
03:47Ideally, before you leave me high and dry.
03:49Sir, you're being petulant.
03:50Okay.
03:51My armpit out.
03:54You're my protege.
03:55I groomed you.
03:56Can't say that, sir.
03:57Planted my seed in you.
03:58Definitely can't say that, sir.
04:00Chowdhury.
04:01Loyal.
04:02Faithful.
04:03Chowdhury.
04:04What have you got for me lovely boy?
04:05Er, that's the husband.
04:07Dale Jenkins over there.
04:09He's in shock.
04:10I don't think we'll get much sense out of him yet.
04:11How'd you get on with CCTV?
04:13Not good.
04:14All the cameras except the one on the entrance have been down the last few weeks.
04:17It's Sue Dyer, the woman whose husband the service was for.
04:21She said she thinks she might have clicked on it, but they make it all very confusing.
04:26And my dentist used to do this.
04:27The edited highlights is fine.
04:28Got it.
04:30Can I go yet?
04:31Josh Daniels.
04:32Have you made a statement?
04:33No, but I'm late for the gym.
04:34I need to hit my training window.
04:36I've already fueled.
04:36Oh, well if you've already fueled.
04:38Well, no.
04:39Chowdhury, take Mr Daniels' statement, please.
04:47There's no way this was a robbery.
04:49Someone low enough to rob a memorial service has the nerve to kill someone and leaves the
04:54phone, rings and purse.
04:57A characterful analysis?
04:59How far you've come under my tutelage.
05:02If this is to be our last case...
05:03Now I've got you a little present.
05:06Oh.
05:08Cinema membership so you can watch a film every week.
05:11Keep our film nights going on FaceTime and get you out the house.
05:15Oh.
05:16It'd be nice for me.
05:18Stop me losing my eyeballs.
05:20I'm not 90, you know, but thank you very much.
05:22It's kind of you.
05:23But I'll be fine.
05:25It's you I'm worried about.
05:27Are you sure you're leaving for all the right reasons?
05:30Yeah.
05:31Need a reset.
05:33Bit of Janie time.
05:34Do what I want for once.
05:36Oh, what do you mean your famed love of surfing?
05:38I take it by your cheery mood you haven't heard back about the audition.
05:42No.
05:44Not that I'm surprised.
05:46Fickle, bloody industry.
05:48Make a BAFTA winner, self-tape an audition and not get back to him.
05:53Well, maybe they're just taking their time.
05:56Oh, trust me.
05:57If you hear nothing, invariably means no.
05:59Well, bollocks to them.
06:02Done with television.
06:03Let's just concentrate on the case.
06:05Right.
06:06I'm going to interview the husband, Dale.
06:09Firefighter.
06:09Couldn't get much sense out of him yesterday.
06:12Oh, come with you.
06:13Yes.
06:15Rather popular with firefighters.
06:17It's had a reoccurring role in London's Burning in the late 90s.
06:20Yes.
06:21Homeless arsonist.
06:22Benny Prince.
06:24It's a tricky character to get into the headspace of, actually.
06:27I doubt they'll be bothered.
06:29I didn't mean to.
06:31I never mean to.
06:33One minute.
06:34It's, can I have a box of matches, please, Mr Patel?
06:38And then the next, whoosh!
06:43Thank you, thank you.
06:45I really ought to get back to my consultation work.
06:48Er, I'm surprised you're back in work.
06:51I needed to take my mind off it.
06:52Yeah.
06:53When there's a call out, you don't get a chance to sit around thinking about things.
06:57Fingers crossed for a massive fire.
07:00Er, did Rachel have any worries leading up to yesterday?
07:05I dunno.
07:06We didn't talk much.
07:08My night shift.
07:09Her running the club.
07:12I think she was more into the uniform than me.
07:14But I get it.
07:15I'm the cliché fireman hunk.
07:18Yeah.
07:20Er, did Rachel have any enemies?
07:22Oh, yeah.
07:23Modernising the club.
07:24Starting the women's team.
07:27People don't like change.
07:29Someone over there even knocked a wing mirror off the other day.
07:33Violent reaction.
07:34Any idea who?
07:35No.
07:36But she wasn't very popular last week.
07:39She'd cancelled the women's team to New Zealand.
07:42That's very interesting.
07:45Why?
07:46I dunno.
07:48I don't seem to know much about her, do I?
07:54Was there anything else?
07:56I've always wanted to have a go on the pole,
07:58but it's not really appropriate time, is it?
08:01So, er...
08:02Don't worry.
08:04Good luck.
08:06God, I'm cavern and flipping.
08:08Keep inside from your car.
08:10It's bad enough being into something as banal as surfing.
08:13At least leave the beach on the beach.
08:15Oh, don't.
08:15I need to get it deep cleaned.
08:17I'm trading it in for a van for Portugal.
08:20Dad thought it would be fun for us to live out on the road.
08:23You're going to live in a van?
08:25Yeah, like a modern camper van.
08:27Proper bougie.
08:28Defecating into a glorified bucket.
08:30Oh, they're really bougie.
08:32You love that car.
08:34It's just a possession, okay?
08:36Chill out.
08:37Anyway, Dad hasn't got the best credit rating,
08:39so I said I'd take care of the wheels.
08:42Are you sure you've really thought all this through?
08:45Hmm?
08:46Hmm?
08:47You're giving up a lot just to make one person happy.
08:52Well, I'm making me happy.
08:54It's only a year I'm not emigrating.
08:56They'll replace you, hmm?
08:57A new DI at your desk, hmm?
09:00Sitting in your chair.
09:01Come on.
09:02One extra hot latte macchiato and a biscotti.
09:06Oh, lovely touch, my dear Chaudhary. Thank you.
09:10Any update on the missing laptop?
09:12No, nothing yet.
09:14Of little importance, anyway.
09:16Now we have a proper lead.
09:20The glaring character and inconsistencies in Rachel's actions.
09:25If I call you a clever little boy, will you get to the point quicker?
09:28Thank you, Miss Milowen.
09:29Right, now, Rachel was a fierce advocate of the team.
09:34And yet, she cancelled the big tour to New Zealand.
09:39Why?
09:40The captain of the women's team, Abby Michaels,
09:42came up in a few statements over that.
09:44She was really annoyed with Rachel.
09:46Unsurprisingly so, my dear Chaudhary.
09:48A bruising volte-fuss from a trusted advocate of the team.
09:52Quite the perfidious betrayal.
09:54You have to agree.
09:56Uh-huh.
09:57Yes?
09:57Right.
09:58I'm going to interview this Abby Michaels.
10:01All right, I'll come with you.
10:02I've found a plan to integrate my way into the rugby club.
10:06Please tell me you're going to play.
10:07I've never seen your legs.
10:09And you never will.
10:10Ah-ha-ha-ha.
10:20Abby Michaels!
10:21DI Janie Malawan, Mid Wales Police.
10:25Yeah, I...
10:26Yeah.
10:27I'm here to talk to you about Rachel.
10:29I heard you were unhappy with her after the New Zealand tour cancellation.
10:33You found that out?
10:35Wow.
10:36Are you being sarcastic?
10:38No, no.
10:39That's really great detective work.
10:41Well done.
10:42Ah, thanks.
10:43Yeah.
10:44Er, the tour.
10:45The tour cancellation.
10:46I was really worked at.
10:48We raised 30 grand and then she suddenly pulled the plug and I couldn't understand why.
10:55Did you knock off her wing mirror in revenge?
10:57No.
10:58No.
10:59But I did kill her.
11:00What?
11:01Joking!
11:02Sorry.
11:03Sorry.
11:04It's a force of habit.
11:05It keeps the morale up.
11:06It'd be much easier if you had killed her.
11:08Just really need to wrap this up and I...
11:10I've got nothing.
11:11Hey.
11:12Ain't none of that.
11:14Who's gonna crack this case?
11:16I am.
11:17Who's gonna crack this case?
11:19I am.
11:21Yeah!
11:22Yeah!
11:22Yeah!
11:23Yeah!
11:24Sorry.
11:24Okay.
11:25Four.
11:33And the evening of Trump Chapel.
11:37Good, isn't it?
11:39Hmm?
11:39An intimate one-man show.
11:41Anecdotes from my storied career.
11:43A glimpse behind the curtain.
11:45I thought you were supposed to be helping me.
11:46I am.
11:48It is just a Trojan horse to better comprehend our suspects.
11:52Now, if I was you, I'd speak to Sue.
11:55She seems to be the one running things around here.
11:58I'll introduce you.
12:02Sue, the officer would love to speak with you about Rachel.
12:08Bear with me.
12:09I'm just taking down the...
12:12Rachel was the only one who drank it.
12:15Oh, poor thing.
12:18Hmm.
12:19Shaking the whole community.
12:21How was Rachel on the day she was murdered?
12:23Well, there was a business with a phone call, yeah.
12:26Wait, what phone call?
12:27Well, that morning in here, she had a phone call from the accountant
12:30and she wanted to write something down,
12:32but the pen that was on the bar wasn't working.
12:34People don't put the tops back on the pen, see.
12:37Dennis always said,
12:39you're never too busy to put the top back on the pen.
12:41Couldn't agree more, Sue.
12:43Yeah, yeah.
12:44So true.
12:45But the phone call...
12:46Rachel went to her handbag to get the pen.
12:49I don't know what the accountant said to her,
12:52but she went ashen-faced.
12:56What did the accountant say?
12:58It was funny, actually.
13:00I made a joke about balance sheets,
13:02which had them howling.
13:04You're such a nerd.
13:05Did they say why they called Rachel?
13:07It was to query a five grand loan the club had made
13:10to Terry Daniels.
13:13Very interesting.
13:14Did you want to hear the joke?
13:15Oh, what?
13:18Phone's dying, bye.
13:20Kick it over, will you?
13:22Okay.
13:31I still couldn't make Caesar's famous line sing.
13:36And it came to me.
13:37The word that defines him.
13:40Crime.
13:40The star of the sentence.
13:43Crime.
13:44The core of his very being.
13:46Crime.
13:47Crime.
13:49Crime.
13:50Crime.
13:51Wits.
13:52Podoman.
13:54Rest is history.
13:57Goosebumps, John. Goosebumps.
13:58I always seem a bit silly,
13:59banged on about some old show that nobody remembers.
14:03There's nothing wrong with having a greatest hits.
14:05People loved you.
14:07Yeah, men like us, John.
14:08We were big when it mattered.
14:10You have to make way for the younger generation sometime.
14:13Bet them have the floor.
14:16Are you mad?
14:18Come with me.
14:23Here we are.
14:26Oh-ho!
14:27Look at these trophies, John.
14:30All won by my Josh.
14:33Oh, yeah.
14:34No, no.
14:34He's, er...
14:35He's certainly done well.
14:37Because he had his old man to look out for him.
14:38You know, like...
14:39Every time he said,
14:40Oh, Dad, they want to play football.
14:42I was like,
14:43Nope.
14:43Kept him at the club.
14:45Well, the younger lot.
14:46We have to let them make their own mistakes.
14:48They're not capable of making decisions.
14:51It's not default.
14:52It's like all these phones,
14:54all this technology, you know.
14:55Anyway.
15:00That's weird.
15:02That dog's been squeaking for months.
15:04It's fine now.
15:05Mind you,
15:06it's not the first weird thing
15:07that's been going on around here lately.
15:09Really?
15:10What sort of things?
15:12Blue rolls disappearing.
15:14Er...
15:14Strange sounds coming from the cellar.
15:17Oh, yeah.
15:18Rachel was down there the other day.
15:19Got the fright of her life.
15:24What spoke to you, Rachel?
15:30Where's the light switch?
15:35Oh...
15:56What are you doing?
15:57Oh, my God.
16:01Damn!
16:02Oh!
16:03Oh, what a shame.
16:05I had been hoping for a trap door.
16:07Oh.
16:08For my one-man show.
16:09We don't have a trap door because we're a rugby club.
16:13And you shouldn't be down here.
16:15Of course.
16:16I'm so sorry.
16:17Oh.
16:19Oh, Sue,
16:20should this be lying around?
16:22It's, er...
16:22Anybody could find it.
16:23You've had a rodent problem.
16:26Rachel was meant to, er...
16:27lock it away.
16:29Now then, John Chappell,
16:30let's get you above ground.
16:32Of course.
16:33Hey, this man!
16:34Get in his case!
16:34But the bigger they are, the harder they fall!
16:39You received a loan of ÂŁ5,000 from the club.
16:42That is a lot of pounds.
16:45What was it for?
16:45That was to, er,
16:46turn the back bar into the Telly Daniels Lounge.
16:49A very classy space where you could come in,
16:51have a pint with me,
16:53maybe give a selfie,
16:54or talk about that try in 93.
16:56Yeah, Rachel wasn't happy.
16:57The accountants called,
16:59and according to Sue,
17:00she went ashen-faced.
17:02Rachel didn't have a problem with the loan.
17:05Anyway, I was gonna pay it back through my business.
17:07I run Daniels Butchers in town.
17:10Ah!
17:10Joshy boy!
17:11Ah, come here!
17:12Hey, hey!
17:13Nice handbag!
17:14It's a cross-body bag, Dad.
17:16Pulling your chin!
17:17Hey, he's hard as nails, this one.
17:19He's going right to the top,
17:20just like his old man.
17:22I'd better go on up and train the women's team.
17:23Ah!
17:24No, no, good boy!
17:25You're back in a gym, double session.
17:27We've got to work on the muscle around your shoulder now,
17:30Josh, now, boy!
17:30Just, I just...
17:32Fine.
17:33I'll go with the weights.
17:34I just...
17:34I just want to check something out in the clubhouse first.
17:36Right, go back.
17:37Right, okay.
17:38Yeah, I've got a head in as well.
17:40I, er, forgot my pen.
17:41Right, well,
17:42make sure you put the top on,
17:44because Sue will go spare.
17:45Oh, yeah!
17:48Ellis!
17:48Take his legs, man!
17:50You can't run without legs!
18:00Sorry, I was, erm...
18:01I was just, erm...
18:02Wanted to see what happened.
18:03Yeah.
18:04Yeah.
18:04It must have been a shock.
18:06The murder.
18:07Yeah, it's not nice to lose anyone,
18:10but the best thing me and the boys can do right now
18:11is to keep our heads down
18:12and focus on getting a great result at the weekend for Rachel.
18:16A lot of these have got your name on.
18:18Yeah, but, you know, it's not about one man, it's about the team.
18:21And I'd be nothing without those boys.
18:23Yeah, have you had media training, Josh?
18:27Yeah, yeah, how do you know?
18:28Just a hunch.
18:30Yeah.
18:31Do you enjoy rugby?
18:33Well, me and my dad have worked really hard to get me where I am, so...
18:36Yeah.
18:37Just because your dad wants you to do something doesn't mean that you should.
18:39Yeah, OK, but it's not that simple.
18:41See, because these are my key years, I can't waste them, this is a big deal!
18:48Sorry, sorry, I didn't, I didn't mean to, um, to do that.
18:52No, it's all right.
18:53Sometimes when we're angry, we take it out on things.
18:55Yeah.
18:56Yeah, like a car wing mirror.
19:01How do you know?
19:02I'm a detective, Josh.
19:04It's my job to know these things.
19:06Nah, total guess.
19:08But why did you do it?
19:09I was angry at Rachel.
19:11Canceling the women's tour was out of order.
19:12I know my dad thinks they're a joke, but they're actually really good.
19:15You know, Rachel was always sticking her beak in.
19:18So you taught her a lesson.
19:19But I didn't kill her!
19:22Seriously, this is a long season ahead,
19:24and me and the boys are going to do everything we can to get to the top of that table.
19:27Can I go?
19:28Yeah.
19:29Oh, one last question.
19:30Where do you get your bag?
19:31I really like it.
19:32It's unisex.
19:33Why are you people still having to go with me about it?
19:40Quite the temper under the bland surface of our young star.
19:44Now, Terry has to be lying.
19:46We only have his word that Rachel knew about the loan.
19:49What did you dig up at the club?
19:51What?
19:51Are you even listening?
19:53I'm planning my running order.
19:56Oi!
19:57An evening with John Chappell.
19:59Behind the mask.
20:01Caesar Q&A.
20:02Brian Blessed Heathrow anecdote.
20:05Distracted, John Chappell.
20:06Oh, this is important.
20:08My agent suggested a regional tour.
20:10Nordic river cruises.
20:12Champion at the bit to sponsor.
20:13Never done.
20:14Well, it sounds like a cry for help.
20:16This will be a chance to lift the veil on the alchemy of producing high culture.
20:22With your Brian Blessed Heathrow anecdote.
20:24Stop the bloody plane!
20:27Sorry.
20:28Pardon me.
20:29Pardon me.
20:31Oh.
20:32What is that?
20:38Just taking her up for a test drive.
20:41She's perfect.
20:42I thought you were getting a bougie camper van.
20:45Camper van, John.
20:47For tourists.
20:48Part-timers who are buying into the aspirational lifestyle pumped into them by the colour supplements.
20:56Now, this is where we get real.
20:58It certainly looks very real.
21:00It's perfect, Dad.
21:01I thought we'd pick her up tomorrow night and then drive straight to the ferry.
21:06If it makes it, it won't just pack in when the mood takes it.
21:10Having promised to take you to an arts festival.
21:14Ah, sorry again about that, John.
21:16Events beyond my control.
21:19So, you want to take her for a spin?
21:20Not so much, but I've got a very busy investigation on the go.
21:25Can't you get somebody else to do that?
21:27There aren't many officers that are skilled and qualified as Janie.
21:30It's important delivering justice.
21:32We need these forces.
21:34Karma is a massive force.
21:37Sometimes the world rights its own wrongs, John.
21:41Hey, catch you later.
21:43I've got a first edition of Dylan Thomas.
21:46It's up to it.
21:47No, no, just keeping it on.
21:49Bye, Dad.
21:52Right, back to the case.
21:54Uh, do we need to?
21:55Can we just sit in the lotus position and let karma solve it?
21:58Do it.
22:03Chowdhury?
22:04I've been going for the one working camera on their rugby club CCTV.
22:08And you ID'd a killer?
22:09No, but a few days before the murder, Rachel's on camera kissing one of the players.
22:15Not pecking either.
22:17Tongues and everything.
22:18Yeah, yeah, who?
22:20Grab a ball bag.
22:22Why didn't you tell me you were sleeping with Rachel?
22:25Whoa, you uncovered that?
22:28You are like seriously one hell of a cop.
22:30You must feel amazing.
22:32Good dog.
22:33Can you stop being so positive when I'm trying to be all serious?
22:36It's hard enough when you tell me this is called a bowl bag.
22:39Sorry.
22:41There's only a little fling.
22:43I felt bad doing that to Dale.
22:45Plus, Rachel was too full on proper control in my strength a few days ago.
22:49And how does she take it?
22:51Really badly.
22:52That's why she cancelled the tour.
22:54It's back on now, though.
22:56She dies and you get what you want.
22:59Ah, you walked me right into that one.
23:02You're like Columbo on speed.
23:07Look, I know it looks bad, but no rugby tours worth killing for.
23:12Is there anything else you haven't been telling me?
23:14If I find out you've been holding anything back...
23:17Well, the day before she died,
23:19I did hear Rachel shouting at Sue in her office.
23:23What about?
23:24Her cleaning, which is mad if you've seen Sue with a mop.
23:28Rachel was all,
23:29This isn't acceptable.
23:30This club needs to be clean.
23:32Sue has been off lately.
23:36Suspicious.
23:37There was this rugby initiation,
23:39and Terry just got a new guy to drink the top shav.
23:42Hmm?
23:42You know, every spirit in the bar mixed in a pint glass.
23:45Sue lost it.
23:46It's all everyone to get out.
24:17Oh, my God.
24:17Oh, yes, the killer id.
24:19No, crap.
24:20Back to where we started.
24:21No, the affair tells us a lot about Rachel's true character.
24:25Cancelling the tour shows that she was willing to abuse her power for petty reasons.
24:33Cancelling the tour shows that she was willing to abuse her power for petty reasons.
24:33It's open.
24:38What's going on?
24:39You two haven't shacked up again, have you?
24:41No.
24:42Only once.
24:44I was at a low end.
24:46For sake, Mum!
24:47We agree not to talk about that.
24:50No, Yvonne's here because we want to talk about you leaving.
24:54We think you're making a mistake.
24:56Oh, do we?
24:58Mum, we can go a bit of your name, OK?
25:02Tee seem good, bud.
25:04Well, you were supposed to pack me up a bit.
25:06You did!
25:07Mum, can you put the kettle on, please?
25:13I can't believe you do that.
25:14Roping my mum in.
25:15I don't want you doing anything you might regret.
25:18Look at everything you've built.
25:20Your career, your flat.
25:21You said my flat was rubbish.
25:23Yes, but I don't want to see you throwing it all away for some childish fantasy.
25:26Tending yourself to the surfboard in some cut-out van will make up for decades.
25:31Of fatherly neglect.
25:32Well, maybe I'm being childish.
25:35So what?
25:37I never got the chance to be a child with my dad.
25:39I never thought I would.
25:41Unlike you, my dad is actually here for me.
25:44Why can't you just accept that instead of being jealous?
25:47Jealous?
25:50I just don't like seeing you trying to be someone else.
25:54I want you to be you, Janie.
25:57He wants you to be him.
26:01Well, maybe that's better than nothing.
26:08Oh, yes.
26:14I tried.
26:17You look at a low ebb.
26:24No, he shouldn't.
26:27No, you're right.
26:28I better check she's okay.
26:29Hi, Josh.
26:39Are you a fan of Caesar?
26:41What's Caesar?
26:44Yeah, I suppose she's a bit young, aren't you?
26:47Think Luther, but in 1950s York.
26:51What's Luther?
26:53Then mind, Josh.
26:54Then mind.
26:55Hello, Josh Bach.
26:57You're a nice boy.
26:59Yeah.
27:00He's got a temper on him, aren't you?
27:02No.
27:03The other day, Rachel called him into her office
27:06and told him that his season was over.
27:09He'd had an injury, see?
27:11And Josh Bach, well, he was thumping.
27:13And he stormed out.
27:15Hmm.
27:16What are you doing there now?
27:17Oh, I can't make this seem work.
27:20Oh, he's not quite meant to do that.
27:23Ah, I take it that that's Dennis?
27:27Yes, that's him.
27:30Er, why is there a jar of Nescafe in the background?
27:35He always used to take his Nescafe on his holidays, yeah.
27:38And that's us in Sorrento.
27:40Instant coffee.
27:41To Italy.
27:43Good God.
27:43Oh.
27:45Oh, that's us in Thailand.
27:47Oh.
27:48And that's where he...
27:51How did it happen, Sue?
27:55Scuba diving.
27:57Don't really want to talk about it.
28:00Hmm.
28:03Cause of death, blunt force trauma to the head.
28:06Murder weapon?
28:07Definitely the trophy.
28:08Waiting on possible DNA.
28:10One thing, though.
28:11The victim had a couple of liquid stains on her top.
28:14Sent her off for testing.
28:15It came back as ethanol and caffeine,
28:17likely from the rum and coke.
28:18But also sodium fluoroacetate.
28:21I love it when you sound like a toothpaste advert.
28:23What's that?
28:24Finding rat poison.
28:25Someone leased her drink.
28:26None in her blood sample, though, so...
28:28She was killed before she could drink it.
28:31Oh, now, before you go...
28:33Mm-hm?
28:33Got you a little something.
28:35It's in.
28:37Leaving present.
28:38Said you always wanted one, so...
28:39Aw!
28:41Janie Malowan.
28:42Cup of the year.
28:43It's supposed to say cop.
28:45Friggin' auto, correct?
28:46Aw, mate!
28:47Oh, no.
28:48Let it happen.
28:48All right.
28:50Aw.
28:51I didn't even nick anything.
28:52Oh, of course not, yeah.
28:53I usually carry eight watches around myself
28:55in case the other seven stop working.
28:57Hopefully, forensics will turn up something on the weapon.
28:59The husband's now got a pretty big motive.
29:01Still no laptop.
29:02Yeah, well, come back to me when you've got something concrete.
29:05Makes me wonder if you're just phoning it in
29:06because you know you're not going to be here next week.
29:08I...
29:08Sir?
29:10Right.
29:11Eight watches.
29:12Two wallets and one laptop
29:14with a Cum Gwinweil RFC sticker.
29:17Let me see that laptop.
29:22This is Rachel's laptop.
29:24Where'd you steal this?
29:25That one's not nicked,
29:26but the rest is, like, off the record.
29:28But I found the laptop in the bins
29:30on the back of Daniel's butchers.
29:33How's that for concrete, sir?
29:36Terry, did you mean to kill her?
29:38I didn't kill her.
29:39Then what happened?
29:40I just wanted to look at a laptop.
29:43There was a video on it for the memorial,
29:45the District Cup final.
29:48I wanted to watch my try.
29:51That's where I know you from.
29:52My old man still talks about that try.
29:54Yeah, well, on the morning of the memorial, right?
29:57Well, I watched it.
29:59I'd never seen it before.
30:03It was just a try.
30:06Nothing spectacular.
30:07But I talked it up to people for so long
30:10that I couldn't let them see it,
30:11so I took the laptop.
30:13But I was going to put it back after the service,
30:16but when they found Rachel dead, well, I...
30:19I just panicked.
30:21How did you take the laptop without anybody seeing?
30:23Ah, no, see, no, right.
30:25That was impressive, right?
30:27I got it tucked under my arm, right?
30:29Then, quick as a flash, I'm out the back of the door.
30:31They've still got to get to my car,
30:32and there's this bloke, yeah,
30:33and he wants to say hello to me, like, you know?
30:35So, I give him the eyes,
30:37drop my shoulder, change your pace,
30:40push past him like a rat of a dream pipe.
30:43When he gets to my ability, right, see?
30:51Thank you for coming.
30:52Were you going to surprise me with this time?
30:54My nan?
30:55No.
30:57I may have slightly overstepped the mark.
31:01Well, you're a grown woman.
31:02You should be free to go wherever you like.
31:05I'm sorry.
31:07Okay, well, seeing as I'm free to go where I like,
31:09can I come in and have a biscuit?
31:11Please.
31:17I wish it was, Terry,
31:18then I could get this wrapped up by tonight,
31:21but...
31:21I don't know.
31:24Are you still going tonight?
31:26You're not going before my show, are you?
31:29Are these your props?
31:31Oh, my God, is that Caesar's badge?
31:34Yes, I'm just sorting out some relevant props for the show
31:38and updating my inventory.
31:41I made my own version of this.
31:44Used to use it to arrest ma'am.
31:47God, I was uncool.
31:49Right, now, we can't discount Josh.
31:52Rachel tried to end his season because of his injury.
31:56Well, it's hardly a reason to kill someone.
31:58You dig up anything else at the club?
31:59Well, Sue's done something worse than murder.
32:02She took instant coffee to Italy.
32:04The home of the espresso.
32:06Snob?
32:07No, but there is something off about Sue.
32:10Her husband dies, yet she barely mentions him.
32:14No, that doesn't scan.
32:16Ah.
32:17Oh, excuse me, that's Caesar's Cherish Fountain Pen.
32:20It's not Caesar's.
32:22It's from the Christmas special, A Dusting of Death.
32:25They just look the same.
32:30That's it.
32:32The pen.
32:34They look the same.
32:37I think we need to put on a show.
32:46Ladies and gentlemen,
32:49you are about to witness a rare event.
32:53For the first time in my decorated career,
32:55I, Charles Caesar, require assistance.
32:59Mid-Wales Police Detective Inspector Jamie Malawan.
33:08Good evening, everybody.
33:11Sorry, I don't know why you said it.
33:12I can't.
33:13Um.
33:13Hello, everyone.
33:16Hello, Caesar.
33:20Sorry.
33:21Miss Malawan and I have pulled our not insignificant mental faculties
33:25to bring to justice the killer of Mrs. Rachel Jenkins.
33:31Rachel wasn't good at keeping secrets.
33:34And she'd discovered a sizable one.
33:38Hadn't she?
33:39Sue.
33:41What business is it of yours?
33:44Good question, Sue.
33:47House lights, please.
33:49Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid I have been misleading you.
33:53I've been helping the police in an official capacity
33:57to uncover a myriad of secrets in this club.
34:02Strange goings-on.
34:04Missing loo rolls.
34:06Phantom rodents.
34:08The door that didn't squeak.
34:11Someone oiled the door during the night.
34:15Someone who has been living in the cellar.
34:19Chowdry.
34:22Ladies and gentlemen, Dennis Dyer.
34:29You stupid man.
34:31The number of times I told you to oil that thing when you were alive.
34:35And now you go and do it when you're meant to be dead.
34:38But I was bored down there.
34:40I don't know my sudokers.
34:42The pair of you faked Dennis' death for the life insurance money.
34:47It was the mysterious broken CCTV that gave you away that and your holiday photos.
34:58No, not that.
35:00Yes!
35:02It was the instant coffee that struck me.
35:06Not just as an act of extreme philistinism, but because it was so out of character.
35:13Someone who takes instant coffee on holiday to the Mediterranean doesn't do something as intrepid as scuba diving.
35:20But your plan of deception worked.
35:24Until Rachel went down to change a barrel and she saw you.
35:31I pretended to be a ghost, but she saw straight through it.
35:35You both knew that she wouldn't keep the secret for long.
35:38So you decided to kill her.
35:41And you nearly did.
35:42But Rachel didn't drink the poisoned rum!
35:47That's why you lost it when Terry suggested someone drink the top shelf.
35:51Because you had already laced the bottle only Rachel drank from with rat poison.
35:57I was a lord of rubbish!
36:00And as you say, she didn't drink it.
36:03I wouldn't be so smug about that.
36:05You're both still going down for it.
36:08So why was Rachel killed then?
36:10It all centred on a phone call from the accountant.
36:14Yeah, but I already explained about that.
36:16She was fine with the loan.
36:17It wasn't what was said on the phone call.
36:20Rachel went to get a pen from her handbag.
36:22Only she picked up the wrong one.
36:25And opened up a bag that looked just like a woman's handbag.
36:32It looks nothing like a handbag.
36:34It's dead masculine.
36:35It does look a bit feminine to be fair.
36:38She didn't find a pen.
36:40But she did find your secret stash, Josh.
36:45Steroids.
36:46The pressure from your father to bulk up.
36:49After coming back from injury.
36:53Your career at a crossroads.
36:55You leaned on illegal help.
36:58It wasn't Sue Abby heard Rachel shouting at.
37:02This club has to be clean.
37:05It was you.
37:07She was going to report you.
37:09Not just your season over.
37:12Your career.
37:14Everything.
37:16This is rubbish.
37:19Josh wouldn't dope.
37:21Annie's not a killer.
37:22Things came to a head the day of the memorial.
37:25You saw the woman that was going to ruin everything on her own.
37:30You saw your chance to end it.
37:40I didn't want to let you down, Dad.
37:46I did it.
37:47It was me.
37:47Dad, please stop.
37:48No, no.
37:49It was me.
37:50Okay?
37:51The results came back from the lab an hour ago.
37:53His DNA is on the weapon.
37:55Yeah, but that's my...
37:57No, no, no.
37:57We are blood.
37:58We've got the same DNA.
38:00I killed her.
38:00Please.
38:01Josh Daniels.
38:02I'm arresting you for the murder of Rachel Jenkins.
38:05You do not have to say anything.
38:06But it may help your defence if you do not mention my question.
38:09Some of you should leave us at the final.
38:16Don't say anything, son, okay?
38:18I'll throw it all out.
38:22Just heard on the radio.
38:24Well done, I suppose.
38:26Buy you off then?
38:27Yeah.
38:28Yeah.
38:28Well, at least I'll be out your hair now, sir.
38:31Look, I...
38:33I'm sorry, my lawan.
38:35I've been childish.
38:37Truth is...
38:39I'm going to miss you.
38:40Oh.
38:41We all are.
38:42Chowdhury's a mess.
38:44It's only for a year, sir.
38:46Right, I...
38:47A good cop I'm allowing is like a tree.
38:50Your trunk.
38:51Us your nuts and bolts, procedures, paperwork.
38:54But you also need your branches.
38:57I don't mean branches as in, like, police station branches.
38:59I mean...
39:00Sir, you're going to have to put this in a text.
39:02I've got to go.
39:02Oh, yeah.
39:04Ah.
39:05Yeah.
39:13Well, I was going to suggest a celebratory ballman back at mine, but, um...
39:18Boys, you've got to go.
39:20Yeah.
39:22Well, you know, it's a coat.
39:23Oh.
39:26I'm not really sure what to say.
39:28I just want to thank you for everything, well...
39:31I'm going to miss you, John Trappell.
39:34I'm going to miss you, too.
39:37Janey, my hour.
39:41Yeah, go on, go on.
39:42I'll send you a postcard.
39:44Yeah.
39:51Actually, I'll just call you.
39:52Postcards are a pain in the ass.
39:57Bye.
39:58Bye.
40:15Fish and chips, eh?
40:17Just like we used to, yeah?
40:19We did this, like, twice over the course of ten years.
40:21What, with you not being here?
40:23Well, it was just the start of a new chapter.
40:27I was thinking, I could sneak a few jazz fads into the van now you're no longer a PC plod.
40:36You had a really good result today.
40:38Got a murder and insurance fraud wrapped up.
40:41Good.
40:42Well done.
40:43Well done, Janey.
40:47You never take an interest in my work.
40:50Sorry.
40:52I am trying, love.
40:53We'll have all the time in the world for you to fill me in when we're away.
41:01I'm not going.
41:03What?
41:03To Portugal.
41:05What do you mean?
41:06Yeah, I want to stay.
41:08I love it here.
41:10I love my job.
41:13I know what'll happen if I go to Portugal.
41:17You'll let me down.
41:18Oh, come on.
41:19No, you will.
41:20Because if we're not doing exactly what you want to do, you will let me down.
41:24And I don't deserve it.
41:25Well, I didn't think I was going to win Dad of the Year, but I didn't realise I was this
41:29bad.
41:29Don't sulk.
41:34I love you.
41:36But I know who I am now.
41:39Do you know who I am now?
41:41I'm good, Detective.
41:44I'm going to be fine.
41:48Be honest, it's because you hate sand, isn't it?
41:50It's 15% of sand, Finn, yeah.
41:57It's just me and you now, mate.
42:15You didn't go.
42:17I've had reports of some uneaten bourbon, so I thought I should investigate.
42:27I couldn't leave you on your own.
42:29It's only been a few hours.
42:30You've already broken up the grief jars and the shepherd's pie for one.
42:36One and a half, actually.
42:38Alan likes the topping.
42:40And champagne.
42:42Glad to be rid of me, are you?
42:44No.
42:45No, actually, I've been celebrating.
42:48Yeah, I just got off the phone with my agent about the Netflix job.
42:51Oh, I've got the part.
42:55Oh, my God, John Chaffell, that's amazing.
42:57Yeah, it looks like I'm going to be in Toronto for a couple of months.
43:01Oh.
43:03That's far.
43:04I know, yeah.
43:06Well, we'll be all right.
43:08We can FaceTime.
43:09And I've got some holiday.
43:11I could come visit.
43:13Ooh, Canada.
43:14OK.
43:15Toronto's in Canada, isn't it?
43:17Famously so.
43:17Yeah.
43:20Well, I'd like that.
43:22If I come, can I be in it?
43:26Cor blimey, Mr Shakespeare!
43:28It's not an Australian production.
43:29That was a damn good Cockney accent.
43:32No, no, you need to lengthen your diphthongs.
43:34And the less said about your glottal stops, the better.
43:36Wait, if you're going to insult me,
43:38can you at least pour me a glass of champagne first?
43:40Talk about a bad toast.
43:42All right, give me a little thing.
43:43I'll do something.
43:52I'll do something.
44:17I'll do something.
44:17I'll do something.
44:17I'll do something.
44:17I'll do something.
