00:00.
00:30Oh, come let us adore him, oh, come let us adore him, oh, come let us adore him, Christ the
00:48Lord.
00:50Oh, right. Here we go. What do you call an old snowman?
00:58Oh, hmm. Frosty. Frosty? What?
01:04Wait, 40 with an S. Foresty, a 40-year-old snowman.
01:10Actually, that's quite bright. Okay, that's just weird.
01:13Only Kelby would even think of that. So what's the answer anyway?
01:17Water.
01:19I don't get it. It's melting. Here he is.
01:23My favourite nephew. Yeah, can you all be quiet, please, or I will have to call the police.
01:27Fall away. We're all in here. I'm a plus one.
01:30Actually, plus two. Yeah.
01:32Haven't you got any Christmas music?
01:33Oh, I'll ask, but Mr Finch isn't a fan. He says it lowers the tone.
01:38Yeah, Finch the Grinch.
01:42But I can get more drinks, though, Auntie Em.
01:45Go on, then.
01:46Same again all round, I think, Robert.
01:49Did he tell you what he's been doing?
01:51He's been saving all his tips for the children's ward Christmas party.
01:55Aww.
01:56Tell him how much you got, Bobby.
01:58No, I don't know that.
01:59He said it's nearly 2,000 pounds.
02:03Amazing.
02:03Well done, you.
02:06Oh, I, um...
02:08Can I get those drinks?
02:10He's so lovely.
02:12Yeah.
02:13He is.
02:15I'm paying you to work and I'll have a family with you.
02:17Sorry. Yeah, I was just taking their drinks order.
02:21And they wanted to know if they could have any Christmas music.
02:23Well, they want Shaker Stevens. Wham.
02:25Wizard.
02:26I asked you to bring the ice out over ten minutes ago.
02:28Sorry. Sorry. Yeah, I'll do it now.
02:30Oh, don't bother.
02:31I'll get it myself.
02:34Well, I'm just off for a Christmas tinkle.
02:37Oh, my.
02:38Make sure you wash your hands.
02:40Sorry.
02:58urg.
03:19Was everything okay?
03:21Oh.
03:22Yes, it was, darling.
03:24You did me proud.
03:26Oh, good.
03:27Oh, I'd better get back to work.
03:31Come on, Margot.
03:32Ready, Margot?
03:34Good King Wensler's last night now.
03:37Oh, look down.
03:38The feast of Stephen.
03:40I know.
03:41When the storm went, Margot.
03:44It's tragic.
03:45Oh, yeah.
03:49Oh!
03:50Oh!
03:50Oh!
03:56Oh, sure!
04:10Hello?
04:28Sir?
04:32You okay there, my love?
04:37You waiting for someone?
04:42Oh, you're freezing.
04:44How long have you been here?
04:49Do you need something?
05:08To be continued...
05:08One morning in the month of June
05:10Down by a rolling river
05:12There a weary tribe with a chance to stray
05:15And he beheld his lover
05:17Her cheeks were red and eyes were brown
05:20Her hair and ringlets hanging down
05:22She'd a lovely face without a frown
05:25Just as the tide was flowing
05:37Okay, so, can I ask why you opened the bin?
05:41Fish.
05:42You were looking for fish?
05:43No, I got fish. I was looking for veg.
05:45Why?
05:46They throw it out at the end of the day, see
05:48There's nothing wrong with most of it
05:50Got a nice bit of broccoli for my salmon
05:53I mean, I had to trim it up a bit
05:54But the really mangy stuff
05:56I cut up and I use it for feed
05:58Oh, for the fish?
06:00For the rabbit
06:02Right, and what time was this?
06:05Quarter to nine
06:06I know that
06:07Because I had to get the veg back to Janet for 5-2
06:10The rabbit
06:12The rabbit?
06:12My wife's sister
06:13She cuts up the veg for the rabbit
06:15But she leaves for work at nine
06:19Banksy
06:20She works at the banks?
06:22No
06:22The rabbit's called Banksy
06:24After that artist fella
06:26The one who draws on walls
06:28Okay
06:29He's not dead
06:31I saw him breathing
06:34Banksy?
06:36No
06:37The bloke in the bin
06:39Oh
07:01Morning
07:02Oh, that looks nice
07:03Oh yeah
07:03All for me
07:04All for me
07:08Whoa, whoa, whoa
07:09This way
07:10Who's your friend?
07:11I found him in a wheelie bin
07:13His name's Seb
07:15And he had a bit too much to drink last night, didn't you Seb?
07:18Well you know you've had a good night when you wake up in a wheelie bin
07:23You taking him home?
07:25Not yet
07:25Can't get his head off
07:27He said his mates glued it on
07:29Oh dear
07:33Hey
07:33Oh
07:35You'll need some adhesive remover
07:38I'll take him
07:39You go and get some
07:40Come on
07:41Right, let's step carefully
07:42Careful
07:43We will be
07:45Okay
07:45Oh
07:46I've got you
07:47Oh
07:47Oh, my nap
07:49Layers
07:49Yeah
08:01There's an exhibition on at the town hall tonight
08:02Christmas through the decades
08:04We're going Christmas shopping, remember?
08:07We've built replica rooms from every decade
08:09From the noughties back through the nineties, the eighties, seventies, the sixties
08:15You need to finish by five
08:16Okay, I'll try
08:20You promised
08:22Right
08:23Say it out loud
08:24I will finish at five
08:28Good
08:30Let's hope Shipton Abbott's criminal fraternity don't get to hear about this
08:34We could have a six o'clock frenzy
08:38Oh
08:39Oh
08:39Hello
08:48I'm not sure which question to ask first
09:08Morning, Margot
09:09Morning
09:10I, er, see you've brought your friend in
09:13He's not my friend, Kelby found him in a wheelie bin
09:16Excellent
09:19Oh
09:20This is the, er, the exhibition at the town hall
09:23Yeah
09:24Christmas through the decades
09:26I can get you tickets for that
09:28My stepmums are one of the organisers
09:30I get a family discount
09:31Huh
09:33Margot?
09:34Oh, I'm busy tonight
09:44There's nothing wrong with this
09:48Ah
09:48Sorry
09:49Something
09:51Wrong with it
09:52I think
09:53Hmm
09:55Oh
10:00Margot?
10:01Hmm?
10:02Why exactly is the snowman here?
10:04His head's glued on
10:06And he's refusing to go home because his new girlfriend's mum and dad are there
10:09They've come down for Christmas to meet him
10:12Oh, I'm worried about giving them the wrong impression
10:14Well, hard not to when he dressed in a snowman suit smelling a wheelie bin
10:18Fair enough
10:20Oh
10:21As soon as you can, please
10:25Problem?
10:26There was a chap sitting on the doorstep when I opened up
10:29His name's David, but he seems a bit confused
10:31So I've put him in the interview room with a cup of tea
10:33That's a very nice thing to do
10:35Oh, I've been trying to get social services to come and collect him, but they haven't got anyone free
10:40I mean, I've made it as comfortable for him as I can in there
10:44The odd thing was
10:45This is the only thing he had with him
10:51Weird
10:53David, is it?
10:58David
11:00We're just a little bit confused about why you have a photograph of me in your pocket
11:08Did I?
11:10You don't recall why?
11:15Take time
11:19Have we ever met?
11:23I need to find my sister
11:25Your sister? Is that why you're here?
11:28Louise
11:28That's her name
11:34Can you help me?
11:36We can try
11:37Do you and your sister live together?
11:44Yes
11:48Only it's Christmas, you see
11:52I really need to find her
11:55Where do you and your sister live, David?
11:58Is there an address you can give us?
12:05I'm sorry
12:07I'm not being much help, am I?
12:10Do you live in Shipton Abbott?
12:15I really need to find her?
12:17I really need to find her
12:18Well, it's all right
12:18Okay, don't upset yourself, we'll work it out
12:22It would help if we had a full name
12:25David
12:27I...
12:29I...
12:35I'll write it down, shall I?
12:38Can you, um...
12:39Can you spell it for me?
12:41David
12:43H
12:44H
12:44A-L-E-G-O-N
12:46Hilton
12:50Thank you
12:52And there was nothing else in his pockets at all?
12:54Uh...
12:55A bit of loose change
12:56No wallet, no credit cards, no phone, nothing
12:59Why would a complete stranger, someone I've never met before
13:03Be sitting on the station doorstep with a photograph of me in his pocket?
13:07Do you recognise the photo?
13:09Where it was taken, when?
13:10No, but it has to be key
13:13Maybe it's on social media somewhere, something Martha or Anne posted
13:17I could look online
13:18Yes, do that
13:19In the meantime, let's start with the search, a five mile radius
13:22We're looking for a brother and sister living together, David and Louise Hilton
13:27Try care homes and sheltered housing first
13:29Right
13:30And check other divisions for missing person reports
13:33On it
13:35Margot?
13:36I got a call from the hub
13:37Fish's wine bar was broken into last night after we left
13:41No
13:42Uniforms attended in the early hours of the morning
13:45Took photos and secured the building
13:48The vastest to follow up
13:54You're sure you're doing the right thing?
13:57It was something he said when Rosie left
14:00About us being on our own
14:02And how we'd have to make do
14:05It's always been the same for us
14:07All through the IVF
14:08Then the fostering
14:11The worry lurking under the surface that
14:13We needed something else to be happy
14:17That we might not be enough for each other on our own
14:21And
14:22This is the best way I could think of to show him that
14:25All I ever need is him
14:28Standing next to me
14:29Holding my hand
14:33This is the best Christmas surprise ever
14:36It will be
14:37If we all do our part
14:38So, all the boxes are in the kitchen
14:41You need to get them there by 4
14:42Put the closed early sign up outside before you go
14:45OK
14:45Mum, you need to be at the train station by 2.30
14:49This is who you're picking up
14:51Oh, he looks nice
14:52He is
14:53Bring him back here
14:55And if Humphrey comes in you'll have to hide him
14:57Hide him? Where?
15:00Use your imagination
15:01There's room in the stock cupboard
15:03Will you mind being in the stock cupboard?
15:05Just do what you need to
15:06Humphrey mustn't see him
15:08So, does everyone know what they're doing?
15:10Yeah
15:12Go team Martha
15:13Ooh
15:18So much for Shipton Abbott being Devon's hidden gem
15:20He's got his scumbags like everywhere else
15:23I blame the parents
15:24Yeah, put two morons together
15:27What'd you get?
15:28Surprise!
15:28Here's another moron
15:31You were at home when the alarm company called to say there had been a break-in?
15:34No, I was at Friends in Palmeron
15:36What time?
15:38About 1.30
15:39It's quite late to go visiting
15:41What?
15:42We're having a party
15:43I said I'd join them when the bar are closed
15:45You can see the door's been jimmied open
15:48Er, yes
15:50Can I ask what was taken?
15:52I asked you to go to the bank this morning
15:53So this week's taking so far
15:56The float, I haven't tidied it all up
15:57But I reckon
16:00North of 10,000
16:01A lot of cash?
16:03It is Christmas
16:04People throw in for the bills
16:05So we get more cash than usual
16:12Can we see inside?
16:13No
16:17Is there damage anywhere else?
16:18No
16:21Office?
16:22No
16:23Then where do they take the cash from?
16:25From the drawer under the till
16:28Is it usual to keep that amount of money in the bar overnight?
16:31Can be
16:32Depends on when I can get to the bank
16:39Water
16:43But they're wine bottles
16:45I guess someone spilled water on the bar
16:55Is that Robert's charity tips Joe?
16:57Yeah
16:58Is this gonna take long?
17:00We're nearly done
17:01Only I need to get this cleaned up so I can open
17:03Can I ask?
17:05Who else would have known you had cash here overnight?
17:07No one
17:09No way, Robert
17:11Robert knew
17:12I remember him yesterday asking me if I'd been to the bank or not
17:25I can't believe this was anything to do with Margot's nephew
17:28No!
17:29Let's check where he was last night after the bar closed
17:32And check on his party in Polmarin too
17:35Sir?
17:47There we are my love
17:50A nice fresh cup of tea
17:53Grace
17:54Resilient
17:55And essential to the
17:57Delta Valence convention
17:59The
18:00Friendship
18:01The
18:02The
18:02The
18:02The
18:03The
18:03The
18:03The
18:03The
18:04The
18:04The
18:06The
18:06The
18:08The
18:12The
18:12The
18:12The
18:12The
18:12The
18:27OK, so I spoke to Terry Finch's friend in Palmarin.
18:31He confirms that Terry arrived there just after midnight
18:34and he was with him when he got the call from the alarm company
18:37about the break-in just after 1.30.
18:39He took a cab back to the wine bar because he'd had a drink
18:42I've confirmed with the cab company that they picked him up in Palmarin
18:45and took him to the bar.
18:46The uniformed unit were already at the scene
18:48and confirmed the break-in happened at 1.30.
18:50So we can rule out Terry Finch?
18:52Looks that way.
18:57I couldn't find adhesive remover anywhere.
19:00You'd think I'd be asking for unicorn poo.
19:04Had to go to the industrial estate.
19:13You can't just leave him sitting there.
19:15What else can I do with him?
19:17I don't know, but this is a police station.
19:19We're in here discussing cases.
19:20Look, I've just got to get his head off and then I'll get him on.
19:23Can't you just cut it off?
19:25No, hang on. He hired it.
19:27He can't...
19:29He's got a Ā£100 deposit against any damage.
19:32Well, hurry up.
19:34Kelby, can you check CCTV from the high street last night,
19:38say between 12 and 2 a.m.?
19:40Sir, what am I looking for?
19:42Ah, well, anyone in the vicinity of Fisher's Wine Bar
19:45at around 1.30 a.m.?
19:47The unit that attended the break-in sent a report.
19:49It's in your inbox.
19:50Thanks, Margot.
19:51And the Grinch sent me a full report of what was stolen.
19:58Around Ā£11,000 in cash,
20:01plus the contents of Robert's charity job.
20:03There was a big sticker on it, too, saying it was for charity.
20:07And that Christmas.
20:07God, that's well bad.
20:14Any leads on the photograph?
20:16Er, I ran the search online but didn't find anything,
20:20so I passed it to IT.
20:22See if they have more luck.
20:23And the, er, sister?
20:24Again, nothing so far.
20:27I'm still waiting on the missing person reports to come back,
20:29but I've drawn a blank with electoral register,
20:32care homes, sheltered housing in a five-mile radius.
20:35Looks like we've hit a dead end.
20:36Maybe we should just pass it on to social services.
20:39Well, let's at least keep trying until they get here.
20:49And you're not even going to warn him?
20:51No.
20:52He'll start fretting, and when he frets, he breaks things.
20:55Right, well, speaking of someone surrounded by bottles,
20:57no-one wants that.
20:58Just make sure everything's ready.
21:00It will be.
21:01Oh.
21:02Hi.
21:04Thanks for getting back to me.
21:06How can one person be on the phone so much?
21:10Every time I call her, she's engaged.
21:12Maybe.
21:12She's busy.
21:13I haven't got anything on Fisher's Weimar.
21:16There's no CCTV in the alley.
21:18A few passers-by at the front just after midnight,
21:21then nothing until the police unit turned up just after 1.30.
21:26Then a cab arrives.
21:28Oh, that's Terry Finch.
21:29Oh, still.
21:30Careful.
21:30We still need to speak to Robert, check his movements.
21:33Mm-hmm.
21:34Why?
21:36You don't think he had anything to do with this?
21:38Of course not.
21:39That's to spark the investigation, Margot.
21:41Ticking all the boxes.
21:43Do you know where we can find him?
21:46Margot?
21:47It's burning.
21:48Calm down.
21:49Careful.
21:50Yeah, well, I've got three jobs.
21:52I do mornings here,
21:55home deliveries in the afternoon
21:57and Fisher's four nights a week.
22:00Can you tell us where you were last night
22:01after you left the bar up to about 1.30 a.m.?
22:04Yeah, no, I was at home.
22:06Can anyone vouch for that?
22:08Er, well, no.
22:11Laura is staying at her mum's with the girls.
22:14Laura's your wife?
22:14Yeah, yeah.
22:16Hey, um,
22:18is it true that they took that charity money
22:20from behind the bar, too?
22:23Yes, they did.
22:24Who would do something like that?
22:26Er, yesterday,
22:28do you recall asking Terry Finch
22:30if he'd been to the bank?
22:32Er, no.
22:34Oh, no, wait, yes.
22:36Yeah, yes.
22:37I think I did.
22:38Can I ask why?
22:39Oh, no, no reason.
22:40I just have to cover the bar if he goes...
22:43to the...
22:44Sorry, am I in trouble?
22:45No.
22:46No, not at all.
22:48Um, just routine questions.
22:50Oh.
22:51Can you just run us through your shift yesterday,
22:53starting with after we left?
22:55Yeah, well, I mean, I was rushed off my feet.
22:57Er, Mr. Finch, see, he won't hire any more staff.
23:00He says cutting costs makes us look good to head office.
23:03Hmm.
23:05Er, you didn't notice anything out of the ordinary?
23:06No.
23:07No, no, no, no.
23:08We had three parties in.
23:09Er, we called last orders not long after you guys left,
23:12and, you know, everyone just drifted off.
23:13What time is that?
23:14Er, I think we were emptied by about half eleven.
23:16Yeah.
23:17I wiped down the tables and the bar.
23:19I put the, er, thank you.
23:21I put the empties in the bottle crate
23:23to be collected the next morning.
23:25Emptied the bins behind the bar.
23:27Normally I'd run the bin bags out the back,
23:28but Mr. Finch told me to go home, so...
23:30Yeah.
23:31I think I left by about quarter to twelve.
23:33Then after you left, did you see anyone outside?
23:36Nope.
23:36It was pretty quiet.
23:39Oh, no, hold on.
23:41There was this lunatic in a snowman suit.
23:46Yeah.
23:47Oh.
23:50Are you sure we can't take this head off yet?
23:53Apparently not.
23:54Glue needs to soften for another twenty minutes.
23:57And we can't cut it off,
23:58cos you'll lose its deposit.
24:00It's a dep...
24:01Fine.
24:03So, you were at a party?
24:04Yeah.
24:05I was at a mate's flat.
24:06His girlfriend's birthday.
24:08Fancy dress.
24:09Whoa.
24:10How do you know that?
24:11I'm a detective.
24:12And on your way home,
24:13you walked through the alley
24:14behind the shops on the high street?
24:16Er, shortcut.
24:17Right.
24:18Did you see anyone?
24:20Particularly anyone at the back of Fisher's Wine Bar?
24:22I think I saw a bloke taking the bins out.
24:26Right, what time?
24:26Oh, maybe just before midnight.
24:29Oh, and then there was this bunch of kids.
24:31Kids?
24:32Yeah.
24:33About ten of them.
24:33On bikes.
24:34All started taking the mick, obviously.
24:37How old?
24:38Don't know.
24:39Fifteen?
24:40Sixteen?
24:41Anyways, they all start pushing me around.
24:43And then one of them goes,
24:45Oh, chuck him in the wheelie bin.
24:47And so they did.
24:49Couldn't you get out?
24:50Oh, I was smashed by then.
24:53Plus, it's surprisingly comfortable in there.
24:55Don't remember nothing after that.
24:57Right.
24:58Sergeant.
25:01What are you thinking?
25:04This fresh splinter of wood we found at the scene.
25:06From the back door?
25:07Yeah.
25:08But it was only visible once the bin men had taken the bags away in the morning.
25:12Do you remember?
25:12They cleared them while we were there.
25:15So?
25:15So?
25:19So surely that must mean the splinter was under the bags.
25:22But how can that be?
25:23When our snowman saw Finch put the bags out before he left the evening.
25:27It doesn't make any sense.
25:29We know the break-in was at 1.30 because that's when the alarm went off.
25:32Exactly.
25:57The eagle has landed.
26:03Hiya. We thought you might be hungry. It's ham and cheese.
26:12It's ham and cheese?
26:16If you don't like it, we can swap it for someone else.
26:21No rush. Just let me know.
26:24Have you found Louise?
26:26No, David. Not yet. But we're looking, OK?
26:29I miss her so much.
26:32Oh, mate.
26:37Hey, we know you do.
26:39Don't get upset, all right?
26:41Our inspector, he's looking for her.
26:44And he's amazing.
26:53Got it. That was IT. They found a match for the image.
26:57It's from the Tavistock Chronicle newspaper. Coverage of the amateur dramatics train murder. They snapped you at the station, remember?
27:05No idea.
27:07It's definitely the same image.
27:08OK, good. So let's focus our search on the Tavistock area and see what that throws up.
27:14Will do.
27:15All right. All steady.
27:17Yeah, well, you've got my skin there.
27:23Everyone, meet Seb Branagh.
27:26Hello, Seb.
27:27Thank heavens for that.
27:29Oh, thank you, guys. I thought I'd never get out.
27:32David got a bit upset.
27:34Started talking about his sister again.
27:37But he's calmed down a bit.
27:39Poor love.
27:41Oh, hello, mate.
27:42You all right?
27:43Kelby will show you where the bathroom is.
27:45You can get the rest of it off.
27:46Brilliant.
27:47Cheers.
27:48Oh, sorry.
27:49OK.
27:50You all right?
27:52I've sent an information request to Tavistock police and the town council.
27:56Mm-hmm.
27:57So, what are you thinking? The kids on the bikes?
28:02No.
28:04Yeah.
28:05There were three or four bottles of Pinot Grigio smashed on the floor.
28:09No other damage.
28:10There was no empty beer cans, no witty remarks or pictures of genitalia etched on the walls.
28:16The office was untouched.
28:18No, this wasn't teenagers.
28:20I think this was someone who knew the cash was there and where it was.
28:26Robert?
28:27So you do think Bobby was involved?
28:29No.
28:30Yes, you do.
28:31I can see it on your faces.
28:33We're still trying to work out exactly what happened, Margot.
28:36But Bobby's a suspect.
28:38No.
28:38Well, yes, but only until we eliminate him.
28:42I'm sorry, Margot.
28:44We don't like it any more than you do, but we have to do our job.
28:47He's the only other person who knew that cash was there overnight.
28:50And he's working three jobs, so we know money's tight for him.
28:53And I've known him his entire life.
28:56There's no way he could do anything like this.
28:58We're sure that's true, but we have to...
29:00With no buts.
29:01That boy goes to the children's ward every Christmas morning to take them presents.
29:06Do you really think he'd steal his own charity money?
29:10And yes, he's got three jobs, but that's because he's a hard-working lad
29:14trying to provide for his own family, not a thief!
29:23Margot!
29:23Hello!
29:25Good luck with that.
29:37Everything all right?
29:38Yeah.
29:38The boxes are in the car.
29:40Mum back?
29:41Yeah, she's just in the kitchen making him a sandwich.
29:45You're not having second thoughts, are you?
29:48What if he hates it?
29:49He won't.
29:51He'll love it.
29:51You think?
29:53I know.
29:56I'd better go and check on our guest.
30:04Sir?
30:06Tavistock Police.
30:07No missing person reports in the past week.
30:10OK.
30:10But I still think we're in the right area, so try GP surgeries next, social services.
30:16See if any of them have a patient called David or Louise Hilton.
30:19Sir.
30:35I'm sorry I shouted.
30:40I was a bit cross.
30:41It's perfectly understandable.
30:42But I stand by what I said.
30:45My Bobby isn't a thief.
30:55So, Kelby.
30:56Did you get your snowman home?
30:58Seb?
30:59Yeah.
31:00Got to meet his new girlfriend's parents.
31:02Yeah, they didn't suspect a thing.
31:04Well, he did have a rash across his neck.
31:08But he said it was only because he was nervous to meet him.
31:12Smooth.
31:13Hm.
31:14Heat rash probably from being in that suit.
31:16He must have been melting in there.
31:18Oh, hey, it's like that joke from last night.
31:20What do you call an old snowman?
31:23Water.
31:26Ice!
31:27That's it.
31:29Melting ice.
31:31Explain.
31:34An empty crisp packet.
31:35What?
31:36Oh, no, sorry.
31:39If this splinter of wood was found underneath the bags of rubbish at the back of Fisher's
31:43wine bar, then the door must have been forced open before they were put out by Terry Finch shortly before
31:49midnight.
31:56Except that's not possible, because we know the break-in was an hour and a half later.
32:01What if it wasn't?
32:03What if everything was just set up to look like a break-in?
32:09By whom?
32:10Terry Finch.
32:11Yes!
32:13Sorry.
32:14But if Finch set all this up himself, how could the alarm go off at 1.30 in the morning
32:20when
32:20we know he was 10 miles away in Polmarin?
32:22Because in the words of a song from my youth, Ice Ice Baby Ice, remember the pool of water
32:32on the bar.
32:33What about it?
32:34I thought it was all at the time.
32:36It was wine bottles that were broken, so how could it be water?
32:39Sir.
32:40Robert told us he wiped down the bar before he left, and he also said he emptied the bin
32:46behind the bar.
32:47Yet, it had a plastic bag in it.
32:56Okay, now you're losing me.
32:58I saw a similar bag at the Christmas party.
33:03Sorry.
33:06But you'd expect to see a bag used for ice behind a bar, wouldn't you?
33:10Yes, but if Robert emptied the bin as he said, and I have no reason to doubt him, why was
33:17it there in the morning?
33:20Good night.
33:22This is what I think happened.
33:24I had to carry you tonight.
33:25Right, sorry.
33:26Pull your finger out, or else I'm going to have to get someone else.
33:29Don't say that.
33:30Mr Finch, no, no, no, you know I need this job.
33:32Well, maybe you should be thinking more about your kids and less about fawning all over
33:36the puns.
33:36It's Christmas.
33:37I just wanted everyone to have a good time.
33:39I told you, Christmas is for mugs.
33:41All I'm interested in is how much they spend.
33:44Right, so less chitty-chatting and more serving.
33:46You got it?
33:47Yep, got it.
33:48I think Robert did exactly as he said.
33:50After he cleaned the bar, he emptied the bin.
33:52Leave him, I'll take him out.
33:53No, no, no, it's fine.
33:53I'll take him.
33:54Leave him, I'll take him out.
33:55I'll do it myself, like everything else.
33:57Go on, go on.
33:59I'm sick of looking at you.
34:01Night, Mr Finch.
34:02Once Robert had left, Finch went straight out to the back door.
34:20Which is how this splinter of wood got in the alley before the bags of rubbish?
34:23It's the only thing that fits.
34:26Jingle smells, my soup smells, I feel really sick.
34:30Cheer up, mate, it's Christmas!
34:35Oh, what fun it is to watch.
34:38Hey, look at this guy.
34:39All right, kids.
34:40Let's chuck him in the bin.
34:45There was no damage anywhere else.
34:47No sign of anyone searching the office.
34:48So our thief had to know where the money was.
34:59But this, this was the clever bit.
35:08Ice defrost at a predetermined pace.
35:12And therefore, it makes a perfect time delay switch.
35:17So as the ice melts, the bottles will fall.
35:21Setting off the alarm?
35:23Precisely.
35:26Whatever.
35:37Let's go.
35:38Okay.
35:40What?
35:43Be your child.
35:46You are in the same state.
35:48If you prefer the plot that is holy, please.
35:49Let's go.
35:51Come.
36:25By the time Terry Finch arrived at the wine bar, the police were already there and had found the broken
36:30back door and broken wine bottles on the floor.
36:32Which would look exactly like a break-in.
36:34I think when Terry got there, he took the plastic ice bag from the bar and simply threw it in
36:40the bin.
36:45But forgot to wipe away the water from the melted ice on the bar.
36:49Precisely.
36:51So, it wasn't Bobby?
36:53No, it was not.
36:59Crikey.
37:00Thank you, Margot.
37:03Kelby, go pick him up.
37:06Oh.
37:08Tavistock Social Services.
37:10They've reported one of their care home residents, David Hilton, as missing.
37:15He wasn't in his room when his carer went in this morning.
37:19No mention of his sister, but his daughter and son-in-law are on their way now to pick him
37:25up.
37:26Oh, yes.
37:27So he'll be with his family for Christmas.
37:29Well done, everyone.
37:49Kelby called.
37:50They've got him.
37:51And Margot ran a cheque.
37:52Seems he was sacked from his last job for running up gambling debt on the company credit card.
37:56I see.
37:57So he was a gambler.
37:59Whose luck just ran out?
38:07Hello.
38:08I'm Humphrey.
38:09Well, this is Aston.
38:13He's your dad, is he?
38:14We've been going out of our minds all day.
38:17Yes, I'm sure.
38:18Where did you find him?
38:19Er, he found us.
38:21He was sitting on the doorstep when I came in this morning.
38:23Er, are we going to see Louise now?
38:25Oh, not yet.
38:27Dad, we need to get you home.
38:30Everyone's worried about you.
38:31He's been talking about his sister all day.
38:34I'm sorry.
38:35We'll get him home.
38:36I'm sure you've got more important things to do.
38:38Not at all.
38:39Can I just ask?
38:41Look, he had a photograph of me in his pocket.
38:48You wouldn't happen to know why.
38:50You're Humphrey Goodman.
38:52Yes.
38:53Yes, I am.
38:55Dad, you sit with Keith for a minute, okay?
38:59I won't be long.
39:02Yeah.
39:04You all right, Dad?
39:05You all right?
39:09Dad and his sister Louise were adopted.
39:11They lost their parents when he was seven.
39:14They were supposed to go to the same family,
39:15but circumstances changed and they were split up.
39:18Come, ye faithful, joyful and shy of us.
39:28Oh, come ye, oh, come ye to Bethlehem.
39:48He tried to look for her over the years,
39:51but just hit one dead end after another.
39:53So he just sort of locked it away and got on with his life.
39:58Just became that unspoken thing.
40:03And then he started to get ill.
40:05And he was diagnosed as having dementia.
40:09And as his memory started to deteriorate,
40:13he started talking about Louise again.
40:18It was as if of all the things he had in his life,
40:20she was the thing he was frightened about forgetting the most.
40:26So, we decided to try again.
40:30We hit the same dead ends as before,
40:32but this time we found her.
40:34Dad was so excited.
40:36We traced her to Gloucester,
40:38where she was adopted by a couple on Christmas Eve in 1968.
40:41They changed her name to theirs,
40:43so she became Louise Briggs.
40:45But then she moved away.
40:47And we lost all track of her.
40:50But then,
40:51the people who bought her old house in Gloucester
40:53found an old bank statement,
40:54dated from around the time she moved away.
40:56But it showed that she made a withdrawal
40:58from an ATM in Shipton Abbott.
41:01Sorry.
41:01Oh.
41:02I still don't see why David would have a photograph of me in his pocket.
41:07So,
41:07we were at a loss as to what to do next.
41:10So,
41:10we spoke to Dad about hiring a private detective in the new year.
41:13Someone from Devon who could help us find her.
41:16And Dad saw your picture in the paper
41:19and thought you looked like a decent chap,
41:20so he was going to call you and ask if you could help.
41:24He can't remember what he had for breakfast.
41:28But he can tell you what song was on the radio
41:30the day they took Louise away.
41:35It's like he's stuck in that moment.
41:39And the hurt is just as real now
41:42as it was then.
41:48OK, everyone.
41:50Let's run a check on the name Louise Briggs.
41:52Town halls,
41:53social services,
41:54PNC,
41:55any other databanks you can get into.
41:57Local HMRC,
41:59passport office,
42:00DVLA.
42:01Look into local clubs and organisations.
42:03She must be drawing a pension by now,
42:05see if that gives us anything.
42:06Sir.
42:08Should we be making these kinds of checks?
42:11Yes, we should, Sergeant.
42:12for two very good reasons.
42:14Firstly, it's a missing persons investigation.
42:16Even though they're not missing anyone?
42:18Technically, yes.
42:20And the second?
42:21It's Christmas.
42:23Oh, Martha called.
42:25She said she's at the winery ordering stock.
42:27Can you pick her up from there?
42:28And don't be late.
42:30What time's it now?
42:31It's 4.35.
42:32You've got 25 minutes.
42:34OK, quick as you can, everyone.
42:51Hey, Elton.
42:53H-A-L-E-T-O-N.
42:56Although that's her original name,
42:57she went on to become Louise Briggs.
42:59Have we got anything else listed
43:01under the name Louise Briggs?
43:03No, that's all the information we have.
43:05Could we cross-reference her date of birth
43:07against anything else?
43:08All we know for sure is she left Gloucester
43:10around four years ago
43:11and we think came to ship the Nabbit,
43:13or at least somewhere in this area.
43:16OK, let me see if I can find that.
43:18I'll come back to you.
43:21They need a national insurance number.
43:23You'd better go.
43:24Five more minutes.
43:25OK, well, thanks for trying.
43:27Bye.
43:29Nothing.
43:30Say again?
43:32But her adopted name was definitely Louise Briggs.
43:37Well, is there an address on the records?
43:41If you would.
43:43You got my number.
43:44OK, thanks, Jess.
43:49There was Louise Briggs married
43:51in patent registry office four years ago.
43:53She declared her former name as Hilton.
43:56So it's her?
43:57It has to be.
43:58Her married name is Branner,
43:59but they couldn't see an address for her.
44:01They're checking, but, you know,
44:04they can't guarantee it'll be today.
44:05Branner.
44:06I've heard that somewhere.
44:08Yeah.
44:11Seb, the snowman.
44:13Oh.
44:13Yeah.
44:14Of course.
44:16You go.
44:17We'll do this.
44:18Oh, no, I...
44:19No.
44:22Right.
44:23Let's call Seb.
44:32Come on through.
44:33She should be around here somewhere.
44:37Ah.
44:38Hello, love.
44:39All right, Lou.
44:40Guys, this is my step-ma'am.
44:42Uh, Louise, uh, this is Esther and Margot.
44:46Louise, we're from Shipton Abbot Police.
44:48It's nothing to worry about.
44:50Gonna let Margot take the lead on this one.
44:52Um, Louise, we believe you had an older brother.
44:55Uh, you maybe.
44:57You know, you were separated from her young people.
44:59Well, we found him.
45:01Uh...
45:01Oh.
45:24Uh...
45:26I'm here.
45:30Hi.
45:31You're late.
45:34What's going on?
45:35We're getting married.
45:37What?
45:38Come on.
45:43He's here.
45:46Ah.
45:47Oh, good Lord.
45:49You mean we're really getting married?
45:51Just told you.
45:52Yes, but I thought it a metaphor.
45:54For?
45:55For something else.
45:57You still want to get married, don't you?
45:59Yes, of course I do.
46:01I mean, why the big secret?
46:04Because whenever we've planned it properly, it's always gone wrong.
46:08And so I just thought I'd sneak up on you.
46:13Because after Rosie left, I wanted to show you that as hard as it was losing her,
46:19it was kind of all right because I still had you.
46:23And you're enough.
46:26Sorry.
46:30Shall we get married then?
46:32Yes, please.
46:33Yeah!
46:37Oh, you'll need to change.
46:39And I nearly forgot.
46:42Mm-hmm.
46:43I found you a best man, too.
46:45God!
46:46Crikey!
46:48Commissioner!
46:49Nice of you to join us, Inspector Goodman.
46:58He's here.
46:59He's here.
47:09Annie, do you want to take over?
47:11Dad.
47:13Look over there.
47:14It's Louise.
47:27It's Louise.
47:30David.
47:54I can't believe you've come all this way just for me.
47:57I didn't.
47:59Oh.
48:01Well, I was in the UK anyway, visiting my daughter.
48:04This was a happy coincidence.
48:07Even so.
48:09Thank you, sir.
48:11Well, should I call you Selwyn?
48:13No.
48:15Of course.
48:16If I'm sure to laugh at all your jokes, if I'm in you and you're feeling broke, if I promise
48:28this is what I'll do, will you love me like I do you?
48:38If I hold you when the world is great, if you don't try to take away.
48:47Wait!
48:48I'll do it!
48:48Oh, thank you.
48:50Just in time.
48:52Oh.
48:53Okay.
48:55Oh.
48:55Will you love me like I do you?
49:01So, we're here today to witness the marriage of Humphrey and Martha, who are not so much starting a new
49:08life together, but confirming their commitment to each other.
49:12Do you remember our house?
49:17My bedroom was next to your bedroom.
49:21That's right.
49:23To cherish and respect each other throughout our lives together.
49:32Humphrey.
49:32Pardon?
49:33I give you this room.
49:36Oh, yes.
49:37I'm sorry.
49:38What is it?
49:43It's time to talk amongst yourself.
49:44Oh, go ahead, go ahead.
49:48Phew.
49:50Sorry.
49:51I give you this ring as a symbol of our love, trust and marriage.

50:24Other finger.

50:27No, the ring.

50:42And to respect and cherish you throughout our lives together.
50:49And now, a short reading from the best man, Selwyn.
50:56Who is to say what love is?
51:00From the fluttering heart that sees a face long missed
51:06To the tearful, breathless wrench
51:09Of a love only ever found in the moment
51:17Or a love that speaks of blood shared
51:24Of a bond that can't be broken
51:31Of a light that can never be dimmed by adversity
51:38Who is to say what love is?
51:42Because love seeks no favor
51:47Nor does it seek permission
51:53It seeks no title
51:56No praise or reward
51:59Love simply is
52:03Love never blames
52:07Always forgives
52:09And cannot be diminished
52:11By distance
52:13Or weakened
52:15By time
52:18Love
52:19Is what is left
52:21When everything else
52:23Deserts you
52:24Who is to say
52:27What love is?
52:31Only you
52:32Because
52:33Only you
52:35Know
52:38At which point
52:39Having declared their vows to each other
52:41And through the exchanging of rings
52:44I can very happily declare
52:46That Humphrey and Martha
52:48Are now husband and wife
53:05Ah, congratulations
53:07Archie, thank you
53:09This is perfect
53:11Worth all the skullduggery
53:12Definitely
53:13All those clandestine meetings
53:15Was a bit like being back in the old days
53:17Stop
53:17I'm a married woman
53:19And I couldn't be happier for you
53:25It's such a shame he can't find someone
53:28I mean
53:29He's handsome
53:31Rich
53:33Generous to her food
53:34Even makes his own wine
53:36I mean there should be a queue
53:37Around the building
53:40Though I have to admit
53:41That your clumsy
53:43Annoying
53:44Socially awkward
53:45Yet quite delightful
53:47Beanpole
53:48For a new husband
53:49Is quite a catch too
53:52Yes he is
53:56Oh
53:57Inspector
53:57We were just comparing notes
53:59That's mildly terrifying
54:00It seems you've brought
54:02All your annoying traits
54:02With you from the Caribbean
54:04But also your brilliance
54:06Ah
54:07Congratulations
54:08Thank you
54:09Thank you
54:09Thank you
54:12It was my pleasure
54:16Thank you for being here
54:17And your reading was quite beautiful
54:20I'm not entirely sure
54:23How you managed to convince her
54:27To marry you
54:29You're a very lucky man
54:31Yes I am
54:36Excuse me
54:37Of course
54:38Inspector Wilson
54:39Oh
54:40David and her sister
54:41How'd it go
54:42We found her
54:44She agreed to meet him
54:45They're together now
54:46It was amazing
54:48So she was related to
54:50Step the Snowman
54:50Yes
54:51She was his stepmom
54:52Congratulations everyone
54:54Well done
54:54You're amazing
54:55Yeah we are
54:56I think we should reward ourselves
54:59With another drink
54:59Oh yes
55:00Good idea
55:01Come on
55:01Sir
55:07Everything okay sir
55:09That was the new inspector
55:11He's working on a case
55:12In St. Marie
55:14But there seems to be links
55:15To the UK
55:16Which you would like me
55:18To look into
55:19While I'm here
55:20Sorry Selwyn
55:21Can I steal my husband
55:23Be my guest
55:25Thank you sir
55:27Thank you
55:29Thank you
55:30Alright
55:30Okay
55:35Any excuse
55:36Excuse me
55:37To stand next to me
55:40What did you do
55:41Pour it into a pot plant
55:42You wish
55:43Oh really
