00:15Oh

00:50Fire
00:51Not again
01:16I've got to get home
01:36No
01:48Jeff
01:49Jeff
01:53Jeannie
01:58Am I alright?
02:00Concussion
02:00I found you this morning
02:02Your head was quite badly cut
02:03Yeah well it was a
02:05Rainy steamy night
02:06You know
02:07And I got in the way
02:07Of a mug and his blackjack
02:09You hit your head
02:10On a drawer Jeff
02:10Yeah alright
02:12Have you been here all day?
02:15I've got to get going
02:17I meant to be having dinner
02:18With my sister
02:19And she's been waiting
02:19Downstairs for ages
02:21I'll tell someone
02:22You're in the land of the living
02:24Thanks
02:31Well now
02:33You're awake
02:35Freya?
02:38Freya it is isn't it?
02:39It's been a long time
02:42It's been ten years
02:43That's what it's been
02:44That long?
02:47Do you want me to go?
02:48No no stay
02:48I can't offer you much
02:49Freya
02:50A grape
02:51A banana
02:52Or my bleeding heart
02:53On a plate
02:54The cocktail stick in it
02:58I'm sorry Jeff
02:59But you let me down first
03:02You promised I'd get
03:03All the works done
03:04In three weeks
03:05Angus is taking Danny
03:06On a male bonding trip
03:07To Scotland
03:07And I just thought
03:08Just for three weeks?
03:09Well it's going to be
03:10Chaos at the house
03:11And you promise
03:12You won't try and
03:12Take over my life?
03:13Cross my heart
03:14And hope to die
03:16So of all the hospitals
03:18In all the world
03:18They had to bring me
03:19Into yours
03:20I'm not your doctor Jeff
03:22I just heard
03:23That you were here
03:24And I've been having
03:24A lot of bad dreams
03:25Recently Freya
03:26Maybe this is just
03:27One of them
03:27You said you'd do
03:29Anything for me
03:30And the one thing
03:31I wanted
03:32I don't want to bring
03:33That all back up Freya
03:34It's history
03:35My father meant
03:36Everything to me
03:38Did you think
03:39It was easy?
03:40He walked out on you
03:41And just because
03:42I couldn't find him
03:43You blamed me
03:44And you cut me
03:45Out of your life
03:47Well that's how
03:48I'd like it to stay
03:49Thanks
03:52What do you mean
03:53You're reopening the case?
03:55Yeah well why not?
03:56Why not?
03:57Why not?
03:58I'll tell you
03:58I'll give you
03:58How many reasons
03:59Do you want why not?
04:00Seven
04:01Give me seven reasons
04:02Why not?
04:04One
04:04It was ten years ago
04:07Two
04:07You were right the first time
04:09There was no evidence
04:10That her father was murdered
04:11Three
04:12She turned you into
04:13A useless
04:14Blubbering fool
04:15That it took me
04:16The best part of a year
04:17To put back together
04:18Four
04:18You're going to get hurt
04:19All over again
04:20Five
04:21She can't be trusted
04:22Six
04:23You're going to get hurt
04:24All over again
04:25You've already had that one
04:26Alright then
04:28Six
04:29She threw you out
04:30You don't owe her anything
04:31Look Marty
04:32I've made me mind up
04:33I've been given a second chance
04:35Jeff man
04:36You're remembering
04:37All the good times
04:38Concentrate on the bad times
04:40And that'll pull you through
04:41No
04:42I've made my decision
04:45I'll be in to check up
04:46Every other day
04:47Jim
04:48All your boys are aware
04:49Of the penalty clause
04:50I hope
04:50Yeah yeah
04:51Don't worry
04:51We'll be out of here
04:52When we say
04:52I know you will
04:53Because believe you me
04:55The alternative
04:55Doesn't bear thinking about
04:59Very non-cool one day
05:00I'm impressed
05:01Yes
05:02Well
05:06Right
05:06So we'll be traveling
05:07In York all the way
05:08I think that's best
05:10Come on
05:12Ah yeah
05:14Ah Marty
05:16I want you to meet
05:17An old pupil of mine
05:18Nesbit
05:19How do you know
05:24I had you there
05:26Nesbit's been a pupil of mine
05:27For some time
05:28It is unfortunately
05:29A little wayward
05:31As part of your education
05:32Marty
05:32I want you to take him
05:34Under your wing
05:34And straighten him out
05:36Show him
05:37How to behave
05:38Like a responsible
05:39Well-behaved adult ghost
05:41Right
05:42Cut along then
05:43And don't forget
05:44To bring him back
05:45To me in one piece
05:45I'll do my best
05:53Gotcha
05:58Oh
06:00Haddock
06:06Yes
06:07Professor Cargill
06:08Worked here
06:08For his father
06:09Yeah
06:10He worked here
06:10In the museum
06:11As their
06:11Iron Age
06:13Britain expert
06:13He disappeared
06:15When he was on
06:15An expedition
06:16A dig
06:17Whatever they call
06:18Up north
06:18One of the world's
06:20Leading authorities
06:20On bog men
06:23Bog men
06:25These three
06:26Were discovered
06:26Ten years ago
06:27In a peat bog
06:28In Yorkshire
06:29Nowhere else
06:30Have they ever found
06:31A man
06:32A woman
06:32And a child
06:33Together
06:34The man's remains
06:35Are the best preserved
06:37He was given
06:38A last meal
06:39Of hallucinogenic
06:40Mistletoe flowers
06:41Then he was dealt
06:43A terrific blow
06:44To the skull
06:45After that
06:46He was garrotted
06:47With the leather
06:48Thung
06:48That you can still
06:49See around his neck
06:51And his throat
06:52Was cut
06:53Finally
06:54Just to make sure
06:55He was staked out
06:57Face down
06:58In the peat bog
06:59Where he remained
07:00For two thousand years
07:02In fact
07:04On many occasions
07:05When bodies like these
07:06Have been found
07:08In peat bogs
07:14I'm sorry
07:15It wasn't me
07:20Can't do that
07:21Stop it
07:21Can't do that
07:24How do you do that
07:25Anyway
07:25At the wind up
07:26Off the floor
07:27Like that
07:28A bit of wind
07:28Bit of willpower
07:29Bit of the old
07:33Right
07:33I'm off to have a look
07:34In the ghost room
07:35You can't do that
07:37You do that as well
07:38Then
07:38No I mean
07:39I really might
07:40You're a ghost
07:41You can do what you like
07:43Don't tell me
07:43You never checked out
07:44The changing rooms
07:45Of the underwear department
07:46Or
07:47Taken a ringside seat
07:48In a honeymoon suite
07:50No I just helped
07:51Jeff solve crimes
07:52Are you
07:53Doltergeist
07:54Are you mad
07:55Honestly the things
07:56People get up to
07:57Behind closed doors
07:58Beggar's belief
07:58Sometimes
07:59I at once saw
08:00We believe the man
08:02Was eventually sacrificed
08:07Jeff
08:08Yes I
08:10So anyway
08:12Cargill was away for ages
08:13On one of these digs
08:14Excavating the bodies
08:15And then one day
08:17He just didn't show up for work
08:19That was the last
08:20Anybody ever saw of him
08:21Well it happens all the time
08:23Men walk off into the sunset
08:24Stress
08:25An affair
08:25Nervous breakdown
08:26You know
08:28Major theft
08:29What
08:30Yeah
08:30Shortly after he disappeared
08:32It was discovered
08:33That a number of very precious
08:34Items were missing from storage
08:36Here at the museum
08:37Well it looks pretty cut and dry
08:39To me
08:39Yeah that's what I thought
08:40At the time
08:41So why are we bothering
08:42To kick over the ashes
08:43What if I was wrong
08:44What if I screwed everything up
08:45For no good reason
08:46Jeff is there something
08:48About this Freya Cargill
08:49Woman you're not telling me
08:50Let's see if we can find
08:51Dolman and McCann
08:53Well at least we're getting paid
08:55Yeah we're on the dig
08:56With Cargill
08:57They all worked here
08:58In the museum
08:59We are getting paid
09:00Jeff
09:02Jeff
09:12So are these guys expecting us
09:13No I'm just a fool
09:14Rushing in Janie
09:15Why not be an angel
09:17Tread more fearfully
09:18Van Geysen has confirmed the 16th
09:21Which means we don't have much time
09:22To prepare the bodies
09:23But I know you don't I
09:25Yes
09:25Randall
09:26Jeff Randall
09:28Oh yes of course
09:30Freya's chap
09:32Policeman aren't you
09:33Private detective
09:34Yes I remember now
09:36Tried to find Andrew
09:38Didn't you
09:38The phrase
09:40Failed miserably
09:41Springs to mind
09:43What brings you back
09:44To our little neck
09:44Of the Iron Age
09:45It's Freya
09:46She's still convinced
09:47That her father was innocent
09:48Aren't we all
09:50Not necessarily
09:53Look I know this was a long time ago
09:54But I do need to dig over some old ground
09:56That's all we ever do
09:57Rather similar our lines of work
09:59I expect you get paid more than us
10:02Ha
10:03Nobody ever became a museum curator
10:05To get rich
10:07We are like
10:09Eunuchs in the harem
10:11Surrounded by precious objects
10:13Which must remain forever
10:15Out of our reach
10:17For instance
10:19This incredibly well preserved Roman sword
10:21With a golden pommel
10:22Was recently valued
10:24At one and a half million pounds
10:26So how much stuff actually went missing
10:28Only small items
10:30But probably worth a couple of million
10:33It took a long time
10:34For this department to recover
10:35Big chief Karadik Evans lost his job
10:38Ritual sacrifice
10:40We had high hopes riding on you Randall
10:43We thought if you could clear Andrew's name
10:45You could clear us all
10:47I gather that you were equally incompetent as a lover Jeff
10:51You lost Andrew
10:52And his daughter
10:57Can we go now
10:58These things give me the creeps
10:59What's the matter
11:01Well it's
11:02Makes me think about my own dead body
11:04You know the state it's in
11:06The state I'm in
11:07Well you've been a worse state than this lot mate
11:09Oh no you won't be nearly so well preserved
11:11No
11:12I know
11:13You'll just be a few bits of hair
11:14And teeth
11:15And a sort of jelly light
11:17Yeah alright thanks
11:17Can we talk about something else now please
11:20Where's your chosen one anyway
11:22Who's asleep
11:23What
11:24Don't tell me you haven't figured out
11:26How to sleep well yet
11:27Well the further I get away from Jeff
11:29The more weak and feeble I become
11:31Yeah well it does take a bit of practice
11:33But you need to steal a bit of their sleeping spirit
11:35They never notice a thing
11:36Just sleep a bit deeper
11:38And have some rum old dreams
11:43She wasn't my girlfriend
11:44That's not the impression I got from them
11:46She was my fiance
11:48But that's alright then
11:50Look it's not important
11:51Not important
11:53Some stupid investigation into something
11:56Which happened over ten years ago
11:57And when quite obviously the man was guilty
12:00Alright then it is important
12:01It's very important
12:02I was in love with her
12:04I'm still in love with her
12:05I thought I'd blown it though
12:07When I didn't believe in her father's innocence
12:09She said she'd never forgive me till the day she died
12:12But what if I was wrong Janie
12:15Wrong about everything
12:20Together we can live a life
12:25We know it's real
12:29We'll move silently through my room
12:34And make me feel
12:37But no
12:39Jeff
12:39Maria hi
12:45How's it going
12:46It's fine
12:47Great thanks
12:47No the case
12:50The case
12:51Well
12:51It's difficult to know where to start when we pray
12:53I mean I covered so much ground last time
12:55It's difficult to think what I could have missed
12:58Perhaps Jeannie will find something new
13:01Jeannie
13:02She's my partner
13:03In the work sense
13:05Business sense
13:06We work together
13:07She's gone off to see Carodic Ebony
13:09Do you miss the museum?
13:11They threw me out
13:14After lifetime service
13:17To my whole world
13:20All because of Andrew Cargill
13:23What I don't understand
13:24Is how Professor Cargill
13:26Ever thought that he could sell
13:27Any of the stuff he stole
13:28Ah
13:29There are private collectors
13:30With secret collections
13:31All over the world
13:32And who discovered the stuff was missing
13:38I did
13:42When Andrew disappeared
13:43It fell to me to clear his locker
13:45And I found
13:48I found things that should not have been there
13:52I didn't want to believe him guilty
13:57But I had no choice
14:01I think about him every day, Jeff
14:03Every day I remember his voice
14:06His laugh
14:07The way he loved me
14:09Look, I'm trying my best, you know
14:10Look, Jeff
14:11I said some really stupid things back then
14:15I was all over the place
14:16I didn't know what I thought about anything
14:18Anyone
14:20And now?
14:22Don't ask me that, Jeff
14:25Would you like a drink?
14:27I'm fine
14:29Can I have another beer, please?
14:32You're not drinking, then?
14:34Trying to keep my head
14:36I wish I was keeping mine
14:37But I lost it, you know
14:38As soon as I saw you in the hospital
14:41Jeff
14:42Thank you
14:43You sure you don't want to have one?
14:47The truth is, you know, Frere
14:49Is I'm scared
14:50Scared?
14:51I mean, what if I can't find anything?
14:53What if it's just the same as last time?
14:55I don't think I could handle that
14:59What's wrong with that fella?
15:04Look in his locker, Jeff
15:06Dad's locker
15:07Freya?
15:08Freya!
15:14And you weren't much help, were you?
15:16Staring at us like a monkey
15:19No, Jim
15:20No, look, it's not my problem
15:22It's your problem
15:24Well, how should I know?
15:25I'm not the builder
15:26Look, it's your problem, okay?
15:28No, it's your man cut through the pipe
15:30It's your responsibility
15:31Can you leave that place?
15:33It's me, Jeff
15:34No
15:34She's going through the old file
15:35I mean, if I'm going to work on the case
15:37Can you give me that?
15:38So this is her, then
15:40Famous Freya
15:41Bit of a big nose, Jeff
15:44I suppose in a certain light
15:46She could look quite presentable
15:48And this is Daddy, is it?
15:50The super thief
15:50Yep
15:51That's the last known photograph of him
15:53Very appropriate that he's waving goodbye, then
15:55I see he's got jam on his hands
15:57Sticky fingers, Jeff
15:59It's a birthmark, Jeannie
16:00Freya had one, just the same
16:02Somewhere very private, no doubt
16:04She felt it gave them a special bond, you know
16:06How old is this woman?
16:08She sounds like a schoolgirl
16:10I'm going to the museum
16:12Oh, come on, Jeff
16:13I was only mucking about
16:14Look, if you don't want to help me with this case
16:16You don't have to, you know
16:17You can go shopping with Wendy
16:20Jeff?
16:21Jeff?
16:23Jeff?
16:29Come on, Wendy
16:29I was only teasing him
16:31I didn't say anything, darling
16:34The museum is involved in a major research project with the Danish
16:38And the third member of this group
16:40The man, who is normally exhibited here
16:43Is on his way to Copenhagen
16:49Professor Dolman?
16:51Are you busy?
16:53No
16:54I'm having a cup of tea and knitting a scarf
16:57What does it look like?
16:58I wonder my elbows in dead bodies
17:01Look, I won't take up much of your time
17:03All I want to do is look into Andrew's old locker
17:05Oh, have you brought your magnifying glass?
17:08Professor, all I'm trying to do is clear his name, you know
17:13It's over there, Miss Marple
17:14The one in the corner
17:16Thank you
17:18So you're shipping your bog man off to Denmark, then, yeah?
17:22Yes
17:23I should be sorry to see the old chap go, even for his little holiday
17:27I know these ancient corpses better than any living person
17:31I've grown rather fond of him
17:34Jeff, what a pleasant surprise
17:36Hello there
17:37Any leads?
17:38No, I was just having a look in Andrew's old locker
17:40I seriously doubt you'll find anything after ten years
17:44Come off it, Professor
17:45You look into things 2,000 years old
17:48That's true
17:50I think you'll have to come back some other time
17:52We've got to lock up business elsewhere
17:54Look, I'll only be five minutes
17:55I haven't got five minutes
17:56No, thanks
17:58What about tomorrow, then?
18:00I don't think so
18:01We're madly busy with this exhibition
18:04I think it would be best for you not to bother us
18:06Until things are back to normal
18:08No, I'm not saying that, Wendy
18:10Look, it's very kind of you to drive me
18:12It's just that when we...
18:12It's so exciting
18:13I've never worked on a case before
18:14Yes, and you're not working on this one
18:16I just don't think I should leave my little sister to her own devices
18:20Oh, look, for the last time, Freya
18:22I am not upset, okay?
18:24You just called me Freya, darling
18:28Well, it seems our professors have got something to hide, Geoff
18:33Hey, and Marty
18:35Marty, could you create a diversion for me?
18:40Piece of cake
18:42Watch this
18:53What do you think of that, then?
18:55Geoff
18:57Geoff
19:01Geoff
19:02Geoff
19:04What do you think of that?
19:08This has been a fun thing for us, a unique insight into Bruns-age Britain, at the time of the
19:14Roman Occupation.
19:31Marty?
19:34Marty?
19:46Look, Marty, if that's you trying to scare me, it's not working, all right?
19:50You're up late.
19:53Don't do that!
19:54It's no matter what you're expecting, Casper.
19:56I want a hot water bottle from hot water bottles, hot water bottles.
20:00Or maybe...
20:07I don't know what you're expecting to find, what a letter saying, I didn't do it, signed Arthur Scargill.
20:13Andrew Cargill?
20:14Yeah, whatever.
20:20What was that?
20:22What?
20:24That's probably nothing.
20:27So you think this is all gonna bring Freya back, then?
20:31Yeah, maybe.
20:32She said so, has she?
20:36She said...
20:37I'll come back, and everything will be as it was before, if only you'll prove my father's innocence.
20:44Yeah.
20:46Something like that.
20:48So forget that she ditched you, forget the last ten years.
20:51Yeah, something like that.
20:55Gotcha.
20:57What is it?
20:59Jeff, I think we should get out of here.
21:01Just a minute.
21:03Come on!
21:05Jeff!
21:07Gotta get out, come on!
21:09Got it!
21:13Marty!
21:14What is it we're running from?
21:15I don't know, a ghost, maybe.
21:17A ghost? You're not scared of ghosts, are you?
21:19Believe me, Jeff, ghosts are trouble.
21:20Mama!
21:27I'll tell you about it.
21:28We'll be just like every other time.
21:30Nobody there.
21:31Well, let's just leave it then, Bob, yeah?
21:33I don't like it out there, seriously.
21:35I'm always seeing things.
21:37I think this place is haunted.
21:38Let me put it to you this way, Barry.
21:40What would you rather see?
21:42A ghost?
21:43Or an armed intruder?
21:46Don't ask me questions like that.
21:48Jeff.
22:04Maybe it's a code.
22:07Maybe it's a confession.
22:08Maybe it's nothing to do with this case at all.
22:11I've seen this writing in, er...
22:14The Lord of the Rings.
22:15Do you know that?
22:16Maybe it's just Chinese.
22:18Yeah, maybe it's time you left before...
22:21Before Freya gets here.
22:27Hiya, Freya.
22:36So, Freya.
22:37Hey, I'm sorry to call you so late.
22:39It's all right.
22:41I guess our jobs are pretty similar.
22:43Anti-social hours.
22:45Dead people.
22:50You're not still reading this.
22:52I must have bought this for you twelve years ago.
22:55Well, what can I say?
22:56You know, I'm a slow reader.
23:02So, what did you find?
23:04Just this.
23:05I don't know what it is.
23:09They're runes.
23:10Runes.
23:11Celtic writing.
23:13Dad's writing.
23:14Can you read it, then?
23:16He was always going to teach me, but...
23:20See, Geoff?
23:22Maybe we can change the past.
23:24Geoff!
23:25She's jerking your chain.
23:27Can you not see that?
23:29What's she really after?
23:33Marty.
23:34I was really sorry to hear about what happened.
23:37He was the best friend anyone could have.
23:42He just never wanted you to be happy.
23:47Cough.
23:53Look, Frere.
23:55I will find out what this means, you know?
23:58But...
23:59What if it does prove something?
24:01You know, what then?
24:04Between us?
24:06Geoff, I'm sorry. I've got to go.
24:13Here.
24:13Yeah, cheerio.
24:26Why are you doing this?
24:28Marty.
24:30Small world.
24:32I'm sorry I didn't realise that you were still around.
24:36It's got to be the little plan, somewhat.
24:38Was it?
24:41Will you tell him?
24:44I think that's your job.
24:49I don't want to hurt him, Marty.
24:52Then what the hell do you think you're doing?!
25:01I don't know.
25:08I don't know.
25:09Oh, Maximus!
25:10Oh, Boudicca!
25:15Oh!
25:16You tear my soul to tatters!
25:20Oh, steady on!
25:22Oh, Maximus!
25:25I have sacked Colchester!
25:27I have put the hated Romans to the sword!
25:31But you...
25:34you...
25:34have captured...
25:38my...
25:38heart!
25:44It's not true what she said, you know, about me not wanting you to be happy.
25:47Whatever happens,
25:49I'm always there for you.
25:50And I know I might be a bit wayward, but...
25:54Geoff?
25:58Geoff!
26:01Look, you know I'm not very good at sentimental speeches,
26:03but you could at least have the decency to stay awake.
26:07Oh, mine's just dropped off. How about yours?
26:11Right, full steam ahead.
26:12What if he wakes up?
26:13He's out for the count.
26:15Now, all you've got to do is take a bit of his spirit with you, and you'll be free.
26:19I know, but...
26:21Come on, you need to practice your sleepwalking.
26:25Well, alright, explain this bit about the dreams to me again.
26:29Every time you go away, you take a little bit of them with you.
26:33Something living.
26:33Now, you get a bit of humanity back.
26:35You can experience what they can experience, and, er, vice versa.
26:39So whatever I do, he dreams about?
26:42Yep.
26:43So you can have a bit of fun?
26:45Yep.
26:45I'll wake up.
26:47Alright, but just this once.
26:55Shhhhhh.
27:00Shhhhhh.
27:04Shhhhhh.
27:05Shhhhhh.
27:07Shhhhhh.
27:08Shhhhhh.
27:08Shhhhhh.
27:09Shhhhhh.
27:09Shhhhhh.
27:11Shhhhhh.
27:11Shhhhhh.
27:12Shhhhhh.
27:12Shhhhhh.
27:13I feel a bit drunk.
27:14Oh, well, you got that from him, you see.
27:16Yeah, if he drinks, you drink.
27:17If he feels groggy, you feel groggy.
27:19If he wakes up feeling like deaf, you wake up feeling like deaf.
27:23Yeah, someone else is new.
27:24Right, the, er, night is young, so, er, what do you fancy?
27:29A street club?
27:30A casino?
27:31Girls dormitories?
27:35No, I've got to do something for a friend first.
27:45Queen Boudicca, I cannot remain your slave.
27:49It is too great a shame for a noble-born Roman like myself.
27:55What did I tell you, Marty? The things that go on beyond closed doors?
28:02Have you, uh, had enough yet?
28:05I had my suspicions about these two, but, um...
28:08Yeah, they look pretty harmless to me.
28:10You're almost pert, though.
28:13Yeah.
28:15Yes.
28:18Very cozy.
28:19End this torment.
28:22Ride the spinning swords of your chariot wheels
28:26through my abused head heart.
28:29Really, Professor Dolman?
28:31I can't cling to this childish notion
28:33that Boudicca's chariot had blades mounted onto their wheels.
28:36It's not an efficient cutting action.
28:38Yes, but recent finds in Ipswich
28:41have shown
28:42that it is possible
28:43that the Icenii chariot wheel hub
28:46sported some form of spikes.
28:49No.
28:49You've got it all wrong.
28:50No.
28:51These were merely extensions to the hub.
28:53The spikes did not necessarily have to revolve.
28:55what is the spikes?
28:58Spikes.
28:58Spikes.
28:59Spikes.
29:01Spikes.
29:02Spikes.
29:02Spikes.
29:03Spikes.
29:03Spikes.
29:04Spikes.
29:05Frère?
29:07Jeff.
29:09Where have you been?
29:10Don't trust me, Jeff.
29:14I'm not all I seem.
29:17Don't trust me.
29:22You're haven't.
29:23Think about me. My luscious lips.
29:26Stop it.
29:26Well, he does.
29:29Just leave Genie out of this.
29:31What's the matter with you, Marty? You need to let go a bit, mate.
29:34Don't you want him to be happy?
29:36Not you as well.
29:37Stop it.
29:43Stop it.
29:49Stop it.
30:07Stop it.
30:09Stop it.
30:11Stop it.
30:31Oh, Geoff, man.
30:32You look like, I feel like, I look like you.
30:36Right.
30:37No, I feel bad.
30:38Yeah, could you just leave me alone for a bit, please?
30:40Look, Geoff, I need to tell you something.
30:43Look, I had a really bad night's sleep last night.
30:46It's not true what she said, what Freya said about being wayward and unhappy.
30:53What?
30:55She was telling the truth.
30:57I do want to be happy, for you to be happy, but whatever, I'm always here.
31:06Too bloody right.
31:07No, I mean I'm happy for you.
31:10For me and Freya.
31:12Oh, I had this beautiful speech.
31:16But the gist of it was, if ever you need me, I'll be there.
31:20Yeah, well, I know you will.
31:22I mean, you've never let me down up to now.
31:24You've come pretty close, mind you.
31:27And to help you get over Freya?
31:29I don't want to get over Freya.
31:30I want to get her back.
31:31Look, Geoff, she's not going to stay with you.
31:33You're going to have to trust me on this one.
31:34You're going to end up getting hurt again.
31:36Oh, all right, I get it.
31:37You can't have Jeannie, so I can't have Freya.
31:39Is that what you really think?
31:41I don't know what I think, Marty.
31:42I'm tired, I'm hungover, and I'm miserable.
31:46Geoff, I just want to help you.
31:48I don't want you to help me, Marty.
31:50I want you to leave.
31:51Will you just get out?
31:58I think those black quarry tiles are going to look too cold.
32:01I'd like to go back to the original terracotta.
32:03Well, of course I'm not going to pay you any more.
32:06Did she have to call her?
32:08That wasn't my idea.
32:10Are you all right?
32:11You have to go back tired.
32:12Do you want me to drive?
32:13Yes, I'm fine.
32:14I haven't been sleeping too well.
32:16I've been having some nightmares, but I'm fine, yeah.
32:20This is definitely in Andrew's writing.
32:23Can you decipher any of it?
32:26I can, but it's incomplete.
32:31I, Andrew Cargill Museum, have, on this date, discovered and...
32:45No.
32:47This symbol can mean either outbreak of swine fever or a more general problem.
32:55I'm leaving this marking, this record, year for...
33:04Oh, this is me.
33:08This symbol means the chieftain or Lord Caradoc Evans.
33:18Now, there's a fragment here.
33:21Looks like a quotation from a Celtic poem to me.
33:26Oh, that's why, that...
33:27Beloved brother.
33:29So, oh, what.
33:31Though bravely you have stood with me all long winter through,
33:38with your hands you have broken the boo.
33:42Boo.
33:45Boo.
33:46Boo who?
33:47Bow.
33:48Bow.
33:49Bow.
33:49Bow.
33:50Bow.
33:51What's that supposed to mean?
33:53Broken the bow?
33:55It is Celtic symbolism.
33:57It means someone close to him has betrayed him.
34:01Betrayed his trust.
34:02Someone close to him?
34:04Who?
34:05Ooh.
34:07I've got rooms, Celtic poems, a man missing for ten years.
34:14I feel I'm part of history.
34:19Andrew's gone.
34:22I'm left a relic.
34:25Dusty old museum piece.
34:30Come on, Geoff.
34:31You may just as well have left a note saying,
34:33I am innocent, signed Professor Cargill.
34:35Yeah, and on the other hand, of course, it could be true.
34:38Betrayed by somebody who's close to him.
34:41Now, who could that be?
34:44Caradoc himself, perhaps?
34:45Dolman or McCurne?
34:47Maybe even his daughter.
34:51Even if he did name anyone else,
34:52it still wouldn't prove anything.
34:54What you really mean is,
34:55is you don't want it to prove anything, Jeannie.
34:58What the hell's the matter with you, Geoff?
35:00Can't you see what's happening, what she's doing?
35:02I mean, she doesn't bother to speak to you for ten years,
35:04and now she turns up.
35:05Why?
35:07Look, Jeannie, I don't want you working on this case anymore.
35:10I'll work it all out myself, thanks.
35:13And in the meantime, will you keep out of my way, please?
35:26So do you think I should have told them, then?
35:28It's their story, Marty.
35:30Let's not spoil the ending for them.
35:32But he's becoming like a ghost.
35:33He's living in the past.
35:34I just want to get over and say,
35:35Come on, Geoff, live!
35:37Oh, I know what you mean.
35:40Well, let me tell you something, darling.
35:42You're jealous.
35:43Jealous?
35:44Of you and Angus?
35:45I don't want to live like you,
35:47down at the golf club with the county set,
35:49all G&Ts and Jags.
35:51Not jealous of me, you numbskull.
35:53Freya.
35:54Freya?
35:55Yeah.
35:56You're jealous of the fact she snatched Geoff
35:58right from under your nose?
36:00What?
36:00Bye-bye, Jeannie.
36:01I've enjoyed my stay,
36:02but I've got a pathetic gin and Jag lifestyle
36:04to get back to.
36:11I get very sad sometimes.
36:14People arrive here,
36:16and suddenly it hits them.
36:19That was it.
36:20It's all over.
36:21There's no greater feeling
36:23than being young and alive,
36:25and few things worse
36:27than being old and dead.
36:29It remained for 2,000 years,
36:32perfectly preserved
36:33by the naturally occurring tannic acid
36:36and oxygen-free conditions.
36:38In fact,
36:39on many occasions,
36:40when bodies like these
36:41have been found in peat bogs,
36:44they've been so well preserved
36:48that the police have been called in,
36:50and a murder investigation
36:51has been launched,
36:53only to discover that the bodies
36:55are in fact thousands of years old.
36:57although the process of preservation
36:59is remarkably quick.
37:01It would only take a year or so
37:03to tan the skin
37:04and turn their hair,
37:06which would have originally been black,
37:08to spread...
37:28and have been botched in pray.
37:28There's nothing to do with another woman厘
37:28what it did.
37:28But they're notשל
37:37as you were able to find
37:37in a really good time.
37:37Even though he was a lot
37:47Come along. The curtain goes up in half an hour.
37:49All right. Don't want to miss the first act.
37:50All right. The hook's slipping.
37:51I'm coming. I'm coming.
37:53Now, shall we take your card?
38:26All right.
38:50Hello, Professor Cargill.
39:03How are you feeling?
39:06Well, it was a dark, rainy night,
39:07and I got in the way of a mugging his blood, Jeff.
39:10Sorry about that,
39:11but you really shouldn't have been snooping about.
39:13Let sleeping dogs lie.
39:14Jeff!
39:15What did I tell you?
39:16I'd always be there for you, no matter what.
39:19Actually, we're quite glad you dropped in tonight, Jeff,
39:21because now we can kill two birds with one stone.
39:26Nesbitt!
39:27I've lost me power.
39:29Yeah, do you know, the exact same thing happened to me.
39:31What?
39:32Yeah, the first few times I went sleepwalking for ages afterwards,
39:35I was totally drained.
39:36Well, you could have told me.
39:38You never asked.
39:39We thought we had an insoluble problem, Jeff,
39:42but then fate stepped in
39:43in the form of a certain luckless detective.
39:46Nesbitt, you've got to do something.
39:47All right, all right.
39:49Well, now, hang on a minute.
39:51My chosen one's waking up.
39:53Oh, good luck, mate.
39:55I'm sorry.
39:56Bad timing.
39:59Nesbitt!
40:00Snooping about one night,
40:02blundering around our precious laboratory,
40:05he turned on a faulty lamp.
40:08Oh, no.
40:09He started a fire.
40:11Our laboratory.
40:13Ashes.
40:14Our bog man.
40:16Ashes.
40:17Our detective.
40:19Saved by the woman who loves him.
40:22Jeannie.
40:25Jeff.
40:26It's a sword.
40:41Jeannie.
40:43Always be there for you, sis.
40:46So.
40:47Cargill found out that you were stealing things, right?
40:49He got all hot and bothered.
40:50We didn't intend to kill him.
40:51Yes, we did.
40:52We had no choice, just as we have no choice now.
40:57So.
40:58You made your own bog man.
41:01And now it's being shipped abroad.
41:03And now you're worried.
41:04You don't find out it's...
41:07Fake.
41:12Theft is one thing.
41:13Murder is quite another.
41:14But now the Danes are taking him away for examination.
41:17And we obviously can't have him.
41:19Death it.
41:20Death it.
41:21Devil is locked in.
41:22Ow!
41:24Ow.
41:26Ah!
41:26Ah!
41:26Ah!
41:26Ah!
41:27Ah!
41:28Jeff!
41:30Oh!
41:32Ah!
41:47Ah!
42:01Mama.
42:05Mama.
42:12Don't worry little fella, that's not her.
42:14She's not down here, she's up there.
42:18Come and I'll take you to her.
42:34You know I said I'd never forgive you till the day I died.
42:40Well I've forgiven you.
42:43Ten years too late.
42:45Oh it's not too late Freya.
42:47We can pick up where we left off.
42:50Catch up on lost time.
42:52At least that'll give us something to talk about, yeah?
42:55Tell me about Jeannie.
42:57Is she over Marty?
42:59Jeannie?
42:59No, I...
43:00Well I don't know, I don't know.
43:02Is she lonely?
43:03Freya, why are we talking about Jeannie?
43:06What's she got to do with us?
43:08There is no us, Jeff.
43:11There was once, but now there isn't.
43:15So Marty was right then?
43:17You were just using me?
43:18Using me to clear your father's name?
43:21No.
43:21You.
43:22Yes, at first, but then...
43:24But then when I saw you everything changed.
43:27I realised you'd always love me.
43:30And in a funny way, I knew you could never be free of me until you'd solved the case.
43:34Yeah, but I don't want to be free of you.
43:36Yes, you do.
43:37I don't want to be lonely again.
43:40You'll never be alone, Jeff.
43:43Why is it I get the feeling that I'm missing out on some big joke here?
43:52Kiss me, Jeff.
44:09I'm so sorry.
44:12There was a fire.
44:15A stupid accident.
44:16A faulty plug.
44:19I slept right through it.
44:21And when I awoke...
44:24But I wasn't awake.
44:27I felt so angry and bitter.
44:30I just wanted to hurt someone.
44:33So I chose you.
44:36I wanted to make your life miserable, Jeff.
44:40And I was so wrong.
44:43So wrong.
44:47I've never stopped loving you, Jeff.
44:50Not for one moment.
45:28So there we are.
45:30Dolman and McKern are with the police.
45:33And the bog child safely back with his mother.
45:36You always pull through in the end, Marty.
45:38You and Jeff.
45:40But tell me, how have you been getting on with Nesbitt?
45:45He's mad.
45:46But, having said that, I must admit, we did have a laugh.
45:52And I must admit, I did have a plan to cheer you up a little.
45:57Get you out of yourself.
45:58Appreciate your position a little bit.
46:00Get things in perspective.
46:02Yeah, cheers, Marty.
46:03Yeah, I quite enjoyed it, actually, yeah.
46:05You will.
46:08Yo, you were staying in the room.
46:11So, wait a little bit too.
46:17I can't get awkward.
46:20You were waiting?
46:20Right?
46:22Moss.
46:23One, two, two, last.
46:35And you did not get worried.
46:35Hang on at the window.
46:35Come on my way.
46:38You look terrible.
46:41Yeah, well, it was a dark, steamy night
46:43and I got in the way of a mug and his blackjack.
46:47You've seen Freya?
46:49Yeah. For the last time.
46:53She's hurt you again, hasn't she?
46:56No, she was... She was very kind, in a way.
47:03Jeannie?
47:04Yeah?
47:06Do you still think about Marty?
47:09Of course.
47:11Only the nice things there, that's what pulls me through.
47:24Jeannie. Isn't she lovely?
47:26Yeah.
47:29Yes, she is.
47:32To do it.
