00:33Thank you
01:20Thank you
01:53There were 18 cameras to stop automobile break-ins
01:56They pick her up everywhere and then nothing
01:58She's just gone
01:59Well maybe she didn't want to see her
02:02But more likely
02:03She fell overboard
02:04Why do you see this?
02:06Because who plans a murder on a fucking ferry?
02:08Once you've done it, you're stuck
02:11All right, all right
02:13Let's say it wasn't planned, let's say it was spontaneous
02:15Let's say she pissed off some Ned in the queue for a paint
02:19And he chucked her over
02:20Well?
02:21Someone would of course see this
02:23Yeah, they would
02:24And yet here's a crowded boat
02:25And not one person saw, heard anything
02:28So short of she was
02:30Beamed aboard
02:31The mothership
02:32The most plausible theory is that she ran away from her life
02:35Or less plausible, fell in by accident
02:37Albeit without anybody seeing or hearing it happen
02:39Unless someone took her
02:40They could overpower her
02:42Stop her from screaming
02:43Yeah, but kidnapping of a ferry is all the same problems as murder
02:45As well as posing the question of
02:47Why the fuck would you go all the way out to sea to kidnap her?
02:49And why would you grab her up and not ransom her?
02:52This is true, there is no ransom
02:54And if they simply wanted to kill her, there are much easier ways
02:57But what if they made a mistake
03:00And killed her by accident?
03:03Four years later and no bonnie is found
03:05This is very strange, no?
03:07Hope I'm not interrupting
03:11Oh, this isn't so bad, eh?
03:13It's nice and quiet down here
03:16Relaxing
03:16Mmm, yeah, it's like a bloody health spa
03:19I'm relieved to see your computers working
03:21You haven't answered any of my emails
03:23I probably just went straight into my junk
03:26Well, lucky for you
03:27You've got an assistant from the world of IT
03:30Perhaps he can help you
03:31Of course, ma'am
03:33I'm waiting for the report on your first case
03:35Yeah, well, we're looking at about 8,000 options
03:37So how's spring?
03:39You might remember that the government gave us a rather large sum of money
03:42To set this department up
03:43When can we expect that large sum to trickle down?
03:46And they'd like to announce it to the press
03:48But they can't until you're deciding a case
03:50Well, they must be desperate to look like they're doing something
03:52Well, at least someone is, Carol
03:53It's a process
03:54Right, a process
03:55Does that involve nicking open files and logging unauthorised?
03:59Come on, Moira, you don't give a shit about cold cases
04:02You choose a case or get out of the building
04:04Actually
04:07Oh, for God's sake, Carol, are we 12?
04:09Yeah? We're 12?
04:10Detective Morg has just today found a very interesting case
04:14I am surprised it doesn't mention it
04:16Because Detective Morg has found many things that don't make sense
04:19Yeah, like why are you opening your mouth?
04:22He thinks it could be deliberate, not suicide
04:25Because there were no witnesses and nobody has ever been found
04:28I don't think that is what I think
04:31Merit Lingard
04:32She was a blunt instrument, that one
04:35Not unlike Detective Morg
04:37Cheers
04:37There was probably a very long line of people wanting her dead
04:42Prosecutor goes missing
04:43At the top of her game, they'll love it
04:47At least give it a day or two
04:50I don't know where it shivers
04:55Get the fuck out of here, Judas
05:01I will go clean the bathroom
05:02We're in the fucking bathroom
05:16We focused on the witness
05:19Caroline Kale
05:20Have you got eyes on her?
05:23Not really
05:24She's not been out much
05:25Her mum does the shopping
05:27Caroline takes her wee man out for a morning walk
05:30Still, not sure I've walked my kid around the same areas I was tagged as a witness for a murder
05:34Maybe yours
05:36Thank you for the, as usual, keen insight, Carl
05:39But now, if you'll leave us
05:40She knows everyone who lives around there
05:42Even the wrongings, maybe a few wrongings
05:44DCI Morg
05:45Probably acquainted with the victim as well
05:47States like that, everyone knows everyone
05:48You know this, hey
05:50Because unlike you, I grew up in a place like that
05:53We're watching her
05:54She's not be seen with anyone else
05:55They know you're watching
05:57They're probably watching you watch her
05:59She'll come through eventually
06:01I could tell she wanted to help
06:02What's the name of her kid, hmm?
06:06You expect her to risk her life to help you
06:08And you don't even know the name of her child
06:13Are you here for a reason
06:15Or are you just bored downstairs in your basement
06:17Because we're busy?
06:18Fergus Dunbar
06:19What about him?
06:21I want to talk to him
06:22Good luck with that
06:23Is he transferred?
06:24He's in rehab
06:25Really?
06:27Good for him
06:28Some weird fucking church
06:29When did this happen?
06:31Since he apparently lost whiskey
06:32And found Jesus
06:34You were still at home
06:37Recovering
06:39Which weird fucking church?
06:41Which weird fucking church?
07:12Fungus
07:15Mark
07:17Don't worry
07:19Just came by to pick your brain on an old case
07:21Married Lingar
07:23Prosecutor
07:24Went missing off a ferry four years ago
07:25Yeah
07:26I know who she is
07:29I'm just wondering why you're talking to me about her now
07:31Because I'm thinking about reopening the case
07:38Guys
07:39Why don't we all go and grab some lunch here
07:42I made up some egg sandwiches
07:46They're in the fridge
07:50So far in the last ten seconds
07:51I've learnt more about you
07:52Than the eight years you were on the job
07:54I may not be the greatest officer
07:56Made some mistakes
07:58But if you've came here
07:59He pinned some cock up on me
08:01Fuck off
08:01Now that is not a very Christlike thing to say
08:04You see I've taken responsibility
08:05For everything I did
08:07This is about what you didn't do
08:10I did everything I could to find her
08:12I had divers in the water for weeks
08:14I had officers from
08:17Eight local authorities
08:18All there's on the coastline
08:19All looking for her
08:20So you were there from the start?
08:23I was the one that interviewed all the passengers that day
08:25And not just an air ferry
08:26On the other boat in the water that day too
08:29But nobody saw anything, right?
08:31Apart from the brother
08:32But
08:33Well that's the whole thing
08:35The brother, remind me
08:37Did you even bother reading the file
08:39Before he came over here?
08:40I read the bit where you arrested him
08:43There was footage
08:44Of the pair of them fighting
08:45Our thinking was
08:46Maybe he lost his temper
08:48Pushed her over
08:49But there was nothing to back that up
08:50Not to mention
08:51He had some
08:52Issues
08:53Even if he had given her a shove
08:55That fall wasn't enough to kill her
08:57Are there any other suspects?
08:58Come on, plenty
09:00In her line of work
09:02She had more enemies than we did
09:05Nothing that stuck
09:06And I always thought
09:07The brother was the key in all of this
09:10He was the one and only witness that day
09:14Farrah knows what happened to her
09:15It was him
09:18Law
09:20Law
09:31The Lingard brother
09:33What's his name?
09:34I'm praying
09:35No, no, I can see that
09:36But this is a police station
09:37Not a mosque
09:38What's his name?
09:40Astaghfirullah
09:43William Lingard
09:44Where is he?
09:45He lives at a treatment facility
09:47Which one?
09:49It is called
09:50Eggly House
09:52Thanks
09:53Perhaps I should go with you
10:20My daughters are always texting me videos of cats
10:23I don't know why
10:25I have two daughters
10:26Nine and a
10:29Before this I was home with them
10:30But now my youngest
10:31She starts schools
10:33They have Scottish accents
10:36It's very cute
10:37How long you lived there?
10:39Almost eight years
10:40Why Edinburgh?
10:42They needed doctors
10:43My wife, she was a surgeon in Syria
10:45You work for the police?
10:48Yeah
10:51It's the next day
11:11I don't think we're supposed to park here
11:24I could have saved you the drive up here
11:26We don't allow Mr. Lingard to see visitors
11:29And even if we did
11:30He wouldn't be much use to you
11:32Well, I'm aware of his condition
11:34And I can handle it sensitively
11:36I very much doubt that
11:37The last time the police tried to interview him
11:39They insisted on prodding him for hours
11:41Despite it being obvious
11:42He had nothing to give them
11:43Well, as in any profession
11:45Not all my colleagues are equal incompetence
11:47Your colleagues traumatised him
11:49Left him even more withdrawn
11:51And for what?
11:54He had nothing to do with his sister's disappearance
11:56Nothing at all
11:57Well, we're in agreement
11:58But he was the last one to see her alive
12:01So I'd love to have the conversation
12:04It wouldn't be much of one
12:06William suffers from aphasia
12:08Which is?
12:08In layman's terms
12:09The part of the brain
12:11Responsible for language, expression and comprehension
12:14Has been damaged
12:15He can't communicate
12:16There was a time when he was capable of some interaction
12:18Though mostly non-verbal, of course
12:21But in the last few years, he's regressed
12:23He doesn't interact with anyone
12:25What do you do all day?
12:26He draws
12:27Draws?
12:28Pictures
12:28Of what?
12:29Whatever he fancies
12:30There's no rhyme or reason to his subjects
12:33Well, can I see them?
12:35No, you cannot
12:35Hmm
12:36As I said, there's nothing William can help you with
12:39Well, he is a grown man
12:40So he can decide for himself whether he wants to see me
12:43He may be a grown man
12:44But the decision is not his to make
12:46Why is that?
12:47One of the many conditions of my bringing William here
12:49Was that I would become his legal guardian
12:51Why would you do that?
12:52It was the court's decision
12:54Hmm
12:54I'm considered a very safe pair of hands
12:57My institute pays all of William's expenses
12:59Which are considerable
13:01There's a tendency for those less scrupulous than myself
13:04To abandon patients
13:06Like William when they're deemed hopeless
13:09Is William hopeless?
13:10I like to think no one is hopeless
13:12But he is helpless
13:14And as such, unable to protect himself
13:16From an errant inquiry that may trigger him
13:18You'll have to trust my judgement on this one
13:23Here's your speech
13:24Parking pass and the invitation
13:26And the speaking order
13:28Not my derelease
13:29Don't tell me you forgot
13:31How many times did I ask you to check?
13:34Now, if you'll excuse me
13:35I'm awarding a colleague
13:36At the Neurology Society luncheon this afternoon
13:38I wasn't finished
13:39If you need anything further
13:41You can, of course, come back
13:42With the appropriate warrant
13:44You make me come back here
13:45With a warrant in my pocket
13:46It won't be just for him
13:47It'll be for your financial records as well
13:49Maybe we'll get the health department down here
13:51Have a look around
13:53Think I saw a rodent on the staircase?
13:56I don't know what you're alluding to
13:57But your tone is appropriate
13:59Whatever that means
14:00It means I don't appreciate your feeble misuse of force
14:02I don't give a fuck
14:03Which means I don't give a fuck
14:05How lucky we are
14:07To have men like you out there on the thin blue line
14:10Patrolling our dangerous streets
14:11And keeping us safe from harm
14:14Sometimes the streets aren't where the real danger is
14:17Oh, yes, I understand
14:18Feel free to search my office for weapons of mass destruction
14:31I'm learning so much from you, sir
14:54Are you sure?
14:55Yes, I'm very sure
15:00Thank you
15:00You're welcome
15:03Carl
15:05Apparently there is someone who still comes for William
15:08Wallace said he doesn't get visitors
15:10She lied
15:12I'm shocked
15:14Oh, they're not exactly visits
15:16Maggie, the reception
15:18Maggie?
15:21Maggie tells me there's a woman who comes once a week
15:24To bring William baked goods or jumper and so on
15:27A woman?
15:29Mrs. Clare Marsh
15:31She was the housekeeper
15:32And William's carer before Merit Speer
15:35Once a week?
15:36That's correct
15:36So she's maybe
15:38Not far
15:39She's not
15:43Only one of you here
15:45Will be the sole survivor
15:51I'm as if I know you're a one-run
15:53A hero
15:56All your friends
15:57And don't you annoyance
15:59It will never pour fuel
16:08I'm sorry
16:09She's not
16:17She's not
16:19Doesn't seem to be anyone at home
16:21Her car is here
16:25I hear something
16:28I cram
16:38What the fuck
16:57I'm fine fuck off
17:03Claire Marsh who are you DCI Mork and this is I can
17:08What are you doing out here? Just wanted to ask you a few questions about Merit Lingard. Have you found
17:13her?
17:13No, but I've got a few questions about her disappearance little late don't you think you took care of the
17:18brother I did
17:23Haven't thought of either of them in years. Do you mean apart from the once a week that you visit
17:28William Eggly House?
17:35This is where you invite us in for tea
17:38I'm very protective of William. I don't trust anyone when it comes to him
17:42You've seen how miserable that place is that woman retted cow, you know, she's writing some fancy book about him
17:48With any of the family members to take him. It's only ever the two of them
17:52He was in a council care home when dr. Wallace found him not that one
17:56that one
17:57Found him she heard about him and wanted to study him at her private clinic
18:09Uh study him is a common enough disability. No, you don't know no one
18:15William isn't disabled. Well, I suppose he is now
18:17But he wasn't born that way. He had an accident when he was 16
18:22Suffered serious head trauma. Milk. Oh, thank you. Yes
18:27What sort of an accident? Merit wouldn't talk about it
18:29It was just one of those many things one didn't ask her about but it's an injury that caused us
18:34problems with speech aggression and so on
18:35Was he ever aggressive with Merit?
18:38Better not be starting that nonsense about him pushing her overboard. They did fight on the ferry. They didn't fight
18:44She shoved up
18:47Help yourselves
18:53William could sometimes get frustrated
18:56Imagine being locked in your own head where you think you're communicating and yet no one else can understand you
19:01Sometimes you get confused. Loses temper. He never meant any harm by it
19:05Was he ever that way with you?
19:07That way
19:08Violent
19:09No
19:10Never
19:12Do you remember anything about the weeks before Merit went missing anything strange about her behavior?
19:16No
19:16That was a long time ago
19:18No, how long?
19:24It's a normal week to me. Merit was a bit on edge about a case, but every case set her
19:28on edge
19:28She was very ambitious
19:30The Graham Finch case
19:32The one she lost
19:36Yeah, thank you
19:37I couldn't say for sure just that she was always exhausted working all hours coming home late
19:43Did she ever mention anything about receiving threats?
19:46No, but not that she'd ever tell me something like that Merit was a very private person
19:50Most people didn't even know William existed until after she disappeared
19:53Why keep him a secret?
19:54Not a secret per se
19:57So much is separate
19:59There was this line between her work and her home
20:02Anyone ever come round? Friends? Boyfriend? Girlfriend?
20:08Come round to that place was the middle of nowhere
20:11Took me an hour to get there each way
20:14The only person she had was me
20:16And even so she still never bothered to tell me they were going on a trip that day
20:20I came to work and they were just gone
20:23I saw the rest on the news like everybody else
20:25You didn't like her much, did you?
20:28I mean, I must say she didn't sound that likeable
20:29Always tense
20:31Keep secrets
20:33Rude
20:33No friends
20:35And yet
20:36You stayed with the family for how long?
20:39Twelve years
20:40For William
20:42Not her
20:43He needed me
20:44You say in your statement that she couldn't have jumped off the boat
20:48Only meant that if she had jumped off that boat, William would have jumped straight in after her
20:52He would have done anything for her
20:54Absolutely anything
20:57Cold as she was
20:58I can't accept that she'd leave him on his own like that
21:02She wouldn't do that to him
21:05She loved him
21:08Whereas I know he was the only person she loved
21:11I've seen too many cases like this
21:15Someone's there one day, gone the next
21:22How many things did you find?
21:25Not enough
21:31What?
21:32Mr. Mork, I'm very sorry to bother you
21:34It's Louise here, Louise Eldredge
21:36Who?
21:37Jasper's head teacher
21:39Oh, yes
21:40Um, Louise
21:41Sorry, what's the problem?
21:43We haven't seen Jasper in school today
21:45And we're wondering if you knew where he was
21:47Yeah, he's at school
21:54Jasper!
22:07Power's out
22:10How long has this been going on?
22:12It's a third time in 20 minutes
22:14Stamina, kid's harvest
22:15I meant how long has he been skipping school?
22:18Well, I don't exactly follow him around
22:22I should go in there
22:23Doesn't sound like the best time
22:34They don't want to talk to you
22:36Teenagers
22:36Oh, really, Martin?
22:38And you know this because of all your years of parenting experience, I suppose
22:41Well, you're probably unaware that a teenage boy's frontal lobe isn't fully joined until he's 23
22:45Which means that his decision-making and impulse functions aren't fully developed
22:49I'm having a pretty strong impulse right now, Martin
22:52Okay, that's right
23:02Hi
23:04It's...
23:04Come on
23:05Back
23:06Are you going to introduce us?
23:09Er...
23:10No
23:20Where are you going?
23:23Er...
23:24Hell
23:26Well, I'll see you there!
23:30Little shit
23:34Oh, fuck
23:42What about the power?
23:44Oh, fuck
24:11Hi
24:15How can I get the records of all Meritlinger's cases?
24:20Carl said you're asking
24:21Me?
24:23Yes, we need them
24:24We?
24:25We're currently investigating her mysterious disappearance four years ago
24:28Yeah, I know the case
24:30You were working on it with him?
24:32I am assisting him, yes
24:33Oh, he's up to something
24:35Excuse me?
24:36Watch yourself
24:38I don't...
24:39Carl just doesn't let someone like you assist him
24:42No
24:42Someone like me
24:44Meaning what?
24:44Meaning someone not him
24:46Ah, yes
24:47He's a...
24:48Long wolf, as they say
24:49He's the fucking devil
24:52If he's being nice to you, it's because he's using you
24:54How do you know this?
24:55I was a junior on his old team
24:57Before he, you know, got shot
25:00And what are you doing here?
25:02It really wasn't a big deal
25:07What wasn't really a big deal?
25:08I had this minor...
25:12Issue
25:13But I'm all good now
25:16So...
25:21So...
25:21The records I'm requesting
25:23Okay
25:23Thank you so much
25:39Bye
25:39Bye
25:46Too much?
25:47Oh no, that's good
25:51Actually, I was wondering if I could talk to you for a moment
25:54This is about my caseload
25:56I've been on desk for a while now
25:57And I think it's time that I got back out there
26:00Now, I know what you're gonna say
26:01But I haven't had an episode in months
26:04I'm taking my medication
26:05Keeping my head down like you asked
26:07It's just not the right time
26:11I hear all your conversations
26:12I know you need the help
26:13Yeah, but...
26:14Right, is it because I'm a woman?
26:17Seriously?
26:18Carl, who right now is mental as fuck
26:20Gets a whole department
26:21Which he doesn't even care about
26:22That's different
26:24I'm just asking for a chance
26:26We can discuss it when things calm down
26:27When do things ever calm down?
26:33Yep
26:33Okay
26:37I do
26:39I do
26:41I do
26:42I do
27:07I do
27:09The board needed last time
27:10Is this some new kind of therapy?
27:13You took Hardy there
27:15It wasn't your call out
27:17And then you went inside without backup
27:19Hardy went in with me?
27:20You were the senior officer
27:21We were partners
27:23I saw the body cam footage
27:26You were yammering away
27:28Making jokes
27:29What you call yammering
27:30We call coping
27:31Well, whatever you call it
27:32You missed the guy in the kitchen
27:33The first officer should have
27:35He's dead and can't say what you did or didn't do
27:38And it wasn't your first crime scene
27:40So let's be blunt with one another
27:42Since you seem to prefer things that way
27:44And say what it was
27:45A giant cock up
27:47One that left your best friend and partner partially paralysed
27:51And you
27:51What?
27:53Grumpy?
27:54Seriously pissed off
27:57Aren't you always pissed off?
27:58At everyone
27:59Because you're so much smarter
28:01If you say so
28:03You say so
28:04And you say it often according to your file
28:06Which I've now read a little more carefully
28:07I just don't find any of this helpful
28:09If we're being honest
28:11Then why did you come back?
28:13I was ordered to
28:14You don't strike me as someone who pays much attention to such minutiae as orders
28:18Maybe I just think you're pretty and I wanted to see you again
28:20How about that?
28:31Wow
28:33Okay
28:36You weren't wearing that last time
28:41That's the mistake you think you made?
28:47Um, regardless of my marital status
28:51You can't say what you just said anymore
28:53Well I'm sure there's a hotline you can call
28:59Fuck
28:59Sorry
29:01Seriously
29:04Oh
29:06I hope you're really happy
29:09I think, um
29:11I think we're getting a bit off track
29:13Were we ever on track?
29:14I don't know, maybe
29:18Should we start again?
29:20Yeah, definitely
29:21Okay
29:26Okay
29:27I'll
29:30I'll
29:31I'll go out, I won't come back in again
29:32Oh God
29:32Look
29:34There's
29:34There's really no need to
29:36Get him clear in the air
29:39Get him clear in the air
30:00Get him clear in the air
30:24Excuse me
30:29Excuse me, where's...
30:31Where's the guy who's in this bed?
30:36Come on
30:37You'll have to talk to the duty nurse
30:39I just came on
30:49Come on, get the fuck out of the way
30:50Oh shit
30:51Yep
30:51Sorry
30:58One three
30:59One
31:00Two
31:01Three
31:13Thanks
31:14Thanks
31:17We'll leave you to visit with your friend
31:20Whatever you've got in there
31:21Whatever you've got in there, you're not to share it
31:23Yeah, I never
31:29It's about fucking early, don't you think?
31:33Why, just in time
31:35You look like shite
31:36Well, it's been a day
31:38Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that
31:45Can't let him find Jasper shaking some girl from school
31:47A year for him
31:50Got him and leave?
31:51It's up to you, mate
31:53Okay
32:01See you later
32:38Go away
33:09Good morning Merritt, hope you didn't think we'd forgotten you, had you been gone?
33:17I haven't noticed.
33:19We've returned from our holiday.
33:22How lovely.
33:23Did shadow number two go with you?
33:25Aye, we went down by the seaside.
33:29Sand came out for a change.
33:31It was even warm enough to swim.
33:34And of course, the ice cream.
33:37It's a shame neither of you managed to drown.
33:39Sure you don't mean that.
33:42Or you could have just stayed where you were permanently.
33:44What I missed today.
33:48What's today?
33:51Today your birthday or something?
33:53Even better.
33:55It's the end of the month.
33:58And you know what that means.
34:02I get cake.
34:03That's the spirit.
34:14Ready when you are, Merritt.
34:17Why are you here?
34:22Kirstie Atkins.
34:24What did you do to Kirstie?
34:27I put her in prison.
34:30Of course you did.
34:44Seven calls in three days.
34:48Someone must be getting on well with the POs.
34:50You said before that if I was willing to testify,
34:52you'd do what you could to help me.
34:55Because I said that before you wasted my time in court.
34:59But here we are.
35:00Aye, here we are.
35:02And there he is out walking and talking per usual.
35:05Who we talking about?
35:06Graham Finch.
35:09What about him?
35:10I saw you on the telly talking about him and it jogged some things loose.
35:18Such as?
35:19I need some assurances.
35:20Really?
35:22Suspend my sentence.
35:23Kirstie, no disrespect, but open your eyes.
35:28You're sitting in a cage in your prison jammies.
35:30Do you honestly think you have any kind of leverage at the moment?
35:33I knew the wife.
35:35Okay.
35:36Well, let's just start with that.
35:38Once you tell me that I'm getting out of here,
35:41I'll tell you all about how I met her at a women's age refuge two years ago.
35:45Kirstie, I'm not doing this again.
35:47If you've got something to tell me, can you get it out with
35:49so I can get back to the fresh air
35:50and you can get back to cotton smack and shagging the screws?
35:54I'm clean eight months now.
35:55You want a hug?
35:56I'm just saying, bitch.
35:59I was baked 24-7 when I got grabbed.
36:02I mean, had you asked me what my name was back then,
36:04I would have said Princess Margaret.
36:06But now, with all that paste out my system,
36:09I don't fucking recognise that person anymore.
36:13I just want to start over.
36:16Get myself right.
36:25You would have to testify in open court.
36:27Whatever I have to do.
36:30After you get me out of here.
36:33I can't do that until you testify.
36:37In the meantime, I'll probably get you into protective confinement.
36:41PC.
36:42That's basically solitary.
36:44Why the fuck would I do that?
36:45I don't know, Kirsty.
36:47Maybe you're conscious of-
36:48You're fucking conscious!
36:49Get out of here!
36:51Get out of here!
36:52You fucking asshole!
36:54You fucking cunt!
36:56I'll kill you!
36:59And you didn't help her, did you, Merrin?
37:02No.
37:03Why didn't you help poor Kirsty?
37:08I thought she was lying.
37:19Merrin?
37:21She told me she was in serious trouble,
37:24and I just left her there.
37:29I could've helped her.
37:33Yes, you could have.
37:40Feels good though, doesn't it?
37:42To get it all out.
37:44To realise just how vile you were.
37:47And that now you're the one who needs to pee.
37:56It does feel good.
38:00It feels very good.
38:03That's a good last minute.
38:11Really, so is that it?
38:14Is she dead?
38:16Is what it?
38:20But this has all been about Kirsty Atkins.
38:23Are you her sister or something?
38:31Are you fucking kidding me?
38:33Are you fucking kidding Merrin?
38:37Bravo Merrin.
38:39That was quite the performance.
38:40The tears in particular.
38:42Nice touch.
38:43So real.
38:46What about George Offenden then?
38:49Finn McBain.
38:51Connor Campbell.
38:52Oh come on, you guessed him two years ago.
38:56Don't stop them.
38:57I don't know.
38:58Will you just kill me and be done with it?
39:00I would rather die than play any more of these fucking games.
39:04And so you've said.
39:05Many, many times.
39:08But you don't really mean it.
39:11Fuck if I don't mean it.
39:12If you really wanted to die, you'd have stopped eating a long time ago.
39:18You'd have found a way to kill yourself.
39:22I really would have enjoyed watching that.
39:25You can't keep me in here forever.
39:29Hi, you've reached Victoria.
39:31Please leave a message.
39:32Hey.
39:33I don't know why I'm calling.
39:37So you might remember that I got shot in the head a few months ago.
39:41I'm fine, obviously.
39:42No big deal.
39:44What have you called?
39:46Uh, Jasper.
39:51Jasper's the same old Jasper, I mean.
39:54Hates my fucking guts.
39:55I think he hates everyone's fucking guts, actually.
40:00Except for the girl he's been shagging.
40:04Yeah, that's happening.
40:09Hasn't been to school another week.
40:23I know he said that he was going to be better off with me,
40:26but I think I'm better off alone.
40:29Yeah.
40:32I'm not sure I'm in the right place.
40:38I'm going to go with probably not.
40:42DCI Mork.
40:45Yeah?
40:47Steven Burtzer.
40:50I was met at Lingard's supervisor.
40:54Back then.
40:56Ah.
40:58What can I do for you?
41:00I understand you're reopening the case,
41:03and I just wanted to introduce myself.
41:05Oh, it's very nice to be here.
41:07I imagine at some point you're going to have questions.
41:12Actually, I've got a few right now.
41:13Can I just ask you something?
41:15Yeah.
41:18Why choose Merit as your first case?
41:21It just jumped out.
41:22You know, one of those cases you take one look at and you go...
41:25Oh.
41:25It just screams all wrong.
41:28Really?
41:29Oh.
41:30Huh.
41:31I see.
41:33Why don't the two of you try in case, just push the spoon?
41:36Yeah.
41:36Graham Finch.
41:37Yeah, a guy chucked his wife out of the window.
41:40Downstairs.
41:44They were drunk.
41:46And she had just told them she was leaving him.
41:50Hmm.
41:51Well, I bet she wanted to get him, Noah.
41:53Oh.
41:54She certainly did.
41:56Well, we all did.
41:58Yeah, but you lost that one.
42:00Well, the jury went against us.
42:02It happens.
42:04Well, not to her.
42:05I mean, I've seen her records.
42:07She wasn't exactly prone to losing.
42:09No.
42:10No, she wanted to go straight back after him.
42:12Charge him again with culpable homicide.
42:15Would you say it damaged her career?
42:18Quite the opposite.
42:21She'd easily have my job by now.
42:28Well, you're doing what a good advocate does.
42:32What's that, then?
42:34Asking questions you already know the answer to.
42:37Yeah, but you're not on trial.
42:38Still, I feel as if I need a lawyer.
42:42Well, I've got one of those personalities
42:45that makes everyone feel that way.
42:48Tell me, why did you tell the police
42:51that you thought Mary had taken her own life?
42:55There's one I don't know the answer to.
42:58He got away.
43:00She couldn't let it go.
43:02I...
43:03I just don't think it was in her nature.
43:09She had a...
43:11a dark side, you know?
43:19Do you think there's a possibility
43:22she's...
43:23she's...
43:24still out there?
43:28No.
43:29I don't.
43:31But, I mean, anything's possible.
43:35So...
43:35they want you upstairs.
43:37For what?
43:38Excuse me.
43:40I...
43:40I didn't mean to keep you.
43:42Uh...
43:42I should be up there, too.
43:44If you need me, you know where to find me.
43:46Oh, yes.
43:47Yes, indeed.
43:50Why are you interrupting?
43:51And what the fuck are you talking about?
43:53There's a press conference.
43:56There's a what?
43:59Oh, you're late.
44:01Oh, you could have shaved.
44:03Where's your tie?
44:03Can we get him a tie and a coat?
44:07Can't go out like this.
44:08Lydia Brown, press liaison.
44:10Use your statement.
44:11You'll be following the superintendent.
44:13Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.
44:14Just read it.
44:14You'll be fine.
44:15Moira?
44:17Moira!
44:22Hello, everyone.
44:23Thank you for coming today.
44:24I'll just make a brief statement.
44:27My name is Detective Chief Superintendent Moira Jacobson.
44:31Following the successful outcome of the Windley case
44:34up in Aberdeenshire,
44:36we are here today to announce a new department we're establishing
44:40within the Specialist Crime Division,
44:42aimed specifically at tackling unsolved murders
44:45and other serious crimes that warrant renewed investigation.
44:49They'll be given every available resource
44:52and the chance to work directly with local prosecutors
44:55and the police all across the country
44:58to bring criminals who thought they'd evaded the law to justice.
45:02At the helm of this new department
45:04will be our very own Detective Chief Inspector,
45:07Carol Mork,
45:08who's here to share more details.
45:12Carol.
45:23Good afternoon.
45:25Four years ago,
45:27we lost a champion for justice.
45:31Someone whose tireless dedication to the truth
45:33put countless criminals behind bars.
45:38Her disappearance was felt keenly by those closest to her as well.
45:42as by her colleagues in the Crown Office
45:44and so it feels fitting that Merit Lingard's case
45:46is the first that we will be reopening.
45:51We're determined to find what happened to her
45:54and to do that,
45:55we're asking for your help.
45:58Merit was last seen on the Buried of War
46:02in the afternoon of Monday the 27th of September 2021.
46:06She's wearing a grey jumper with green coat and blue jeans.
46:10We're asking anyone who might have seen
46:12or remembered anything from her time
46:14or has any information about Merit
46:15so please come forward now.
46:17Any detail,
46:18no matter how small,
46:19could be crucial to us finding.
46:21Merit,
46:22and,
46:22and,
46:24bringing her home.
46:26Has there been any new evidence around the case
46:29that's led to this reopening?
46:32Can you repeat the question please?
46:33Has there been any new evidence around the case
46:36that's led to this reopening?
46:38I can't,
46:38I can't disclose that kind of information.
46:41Do you believe Merit Lingard could still be alive today?
46:44Well,
46:44we certainly haven't rolled out any possibilities.
46:46Are you any closer to finding the man that shot you,
46:48Officer Anderson and James Hardy at Leif Park?
46:55I'm not involved in that,
46:57uh,
46:59investigation.
47:00Dennis Piper's got his telegraph.
47:02Can you tell us if it's true
47:03that you and D.I. Hardy knew the victim,
47:06Archie Allen,
47:07and that he was a paid,
47:10confidential informer
47:11that knew a lot about a law
47:13of police personnel?
47:15Who told you that?
47:15No more questions.
47:16No, no, who talks about it?
47:17No more questions.
47:18Is this just a distraction?
47:20That's all.
47:21Thank you, everyone.
47:27That was the
47:28Chief Superintendent from DCI.
47:31Margaret just said,
47:33four years ago,
47:34we lost a champion
47:36of justice.
47:39Merit Lingard
47:41devoted her work
47:43to finding out the truth.
48:01Hello?
48:03Hello?

50:10Okay.
50:34Well, I got no direction, but I got two feet.
50:39They carry me to work and carry me to sleep.
50:43But I think I'm heading nowhere.
50:45That's just how I feel.
50:48This ain't a road I'm walking.
50:50It's a hamster wheel.
50:52Well, it's the same damn day.
50:55Over and over.
