00:00So, looking ahead, all those storm clouds will sashay away,
00:05leaving skies of blue over Wigan and Crewe.
00:08And you won't need your woolly vest on in Preston.
00:12See you soon, ta-ra for now.
00:15Back to you in the studio.
00:16And clear.
00:19Simon, anything you care to share?
00:21Sorry?
00:22You were on your phone for me whole piece to camera.
00:23I was giving me all and you were God knows where.
00:26Sorry, I was just...
00:27I suppose you were looking for a new job, and as of tomorrow...
00:29You'll need one. Ta-ta.
00:31Well, that seemed to go rather well.
00:32I don't need validation from you, Susie.
00:35And what are you going to do about the lint on me kex?
00:37Oh, sorry.
00:39Well, this week would be great.
00:43You're all sorted for next week's butt launch.
00:46Mm-hm. Yeah, that is what I pay you for.
00:48Found a lovely motel, all en suite and spa bath.
00:52Yes, well, after a long day meeting Joe Public,
00:54one does need to exfoliate.
00:57Such a sweet part of the country.
00:59And the weather should be nice.
01:00Mm.
01:01Oh, no, Susie.
01:03When I show up, there will be storm clouds.
01:07Mm-hm.
01:10Mm-hm.
01:20MUSIC
01:29MUSIC
01:38Wincey. Jelly. Nilly.
01:39Clary, there's a man in there with a power tool. Just been looking through the crack.
01:43Bit early for that, ain't it?
01:45We were just wondering what was happening in there.
01:48It's been going on since the year dot.
01:50All right, Gloria. How are you?
01:53Not bad. Still breathing.
01:55Oh.
01:56This is Clary and Lily, the new hairdressers.
01:59Look at her hair.
02:00Hiya.
02:01We went to the farm shop the other day. It was closed.
02:04Haven't you heard? I've sold up. Sold farm.
02:06Oh, I thought farming was in your blood.
02:09Oh, no. I was never a farmer. I was a farmer's wife.
02:14Until Steve went and...
02:16Oh.
02:18Anyway, I can't stand here gassing. We've got a book signing to go to.
02:21Oh, that funny weather fella.
02:23Forgot he's in town today.
02:25So what are you thinking, if not farming?
02:27I'll show you if you like.
02:29Oh, so this is yours.
02:31It is.
02:32Congratulations.
02:36Hey, we should start a women's business breakfast.
02:39Oh, this is amazing. What is it?
02:43Well, it's either the start of a brand new business venture or a great big money pitch.
02:49Yeah.
02:50But I'm not doing it alone.
02:51This is Brian Parkinson.
02:53Also known as Parky the Sparky.
02:55Hello.
02:56Hi.
02:56Parky's my electrical engineer and, erm...
02:59Safety officer.
03:00So don't go licking your fingers and sticking them in sockets.
03:04And over there's Hugh Fletcher.
03:06Hugh the handy man.
03:08Very handy.
03:09I live just from the corner.
03:10I love the ceramic tiling.
03:13Especially the way the colour of the grouting complements the colour of the tiles.
03:16You notice my grog din?
03:18No one's ever noticed my grog din before.
03:22Hold on a minute.
03:24Now I've been looking for a certain colour to offset the earth tones and...
03:27I think it's your eyes.
03:29You don't mind, do you?
03:30Erm...
03:31Clary.
03:32Go for it.
03:35Pistachio.
03:36Lovely.
03:37It's another one completely smitten.
03:40So it's some kind of eatery?
03:43Yeah.
03:43Well, I may have sold farm but I'm still in the dairy industry.
03:47This place is going to be an ice cream parlour.
03:50And I'm calling it.
03:53Course you are.
03:55Oh!
03:56After the famous 1920s dessert.
03:59Which was named after the Knickerbocker Hotel in Manhattan.
04:02I really need this place to be a success.
04:04I want a big glamorous gala opening.
04:07Trouble is, glamour and me, we don't get on.
04:10Well, Clary and I can help with that.
04:12Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
04:14I don't think I'm brave enough for a fancy hairdo.
04:16Trust me, with the right hairdo, you'd be brave enough for anything.
04:26Ladies and gentlemen, for your delight and delectation, I give you my magnum opus.
04:39Shhh!
04:40Ah!
04:41Susie!
04:43Luke!
04:44Susie!
04:45Lint!
04:45Trousers!
04:47My magnum...
04:50My magnum opus.
04:53Front and back.
04:55Oh!
04:56Are we interrupting something?
04:58No, just a minor wardrobe malfunction.
05:02He looks much smaller in me life.
05:05Yeah.
05:06He does have nice ears, though.
05:08Yeah, and surprisingly, they can hear you.
05:11Have a pew.
05:12Right.
05:19Right, Gloria, let's give you some va-va-voom.
05:22What I want to do is I want to bring some lift into this fringe here.
05:28You know, defying all the laws of gravity because we both know Isaac Newton was a bit of a waszak.
05:33I'm not sure I'm ready for anything too radical.
05:35Really?
05:36Well, you're the boss, but life's too short to have boring hair, Gloria.
05:40You could just think of this as lifting up the curtain and saying,
05:43hello world, I'm back.
05:47Yeah.
05:48I suppose it's about time I did that.
05:50I've spent most of my life in shadows.
05:52Really?
05:54Was it that bad being farmer's wife?
05:55Steve wasn't worse to spend in work.
05:58Well, that's hardly ringing endorsement.
06:01He just had his way of doing things.
06:04And I had to go along with it.
06:08Was it just you two?
06:12We never got round to having kiddies.
06:15But there were always lots of young people working at farm.
06:18Parky and Hugh, they both used to do jobs for us.
06:21So it's lovely I can find work for them now.
06:24In that way, I've been blessed.
06:27And so, I find myself hurtling towards the age of 30.
06:32And I won't say from which direction.
06:38There have been clouds in my life.
06:41Both Cumulus and Nimbostratus.
06:44Heartache. Force nine on the Richter scale.
06:47But, despite all of these storms,
06:50I see sunny days ahead.
06:52So I will press on.
06:55Whatever the weather.
06:58Has he finished?
07:00I assume so, since he's finished talking.
07:04Yeah, thanks.
07:06Thank you, everyone.
07:06You've been an audience.
07:09Now, if you'd like to get your book signed,
07:10it makes for the most marvellous present.
07:12Birthdays.
07:13Christmas.
07:15Bar Mitzvah.
07:17Oh, hello there. What's your name?
07:21Erm, er, Wincy.
07:23Is the OM part of it?
07:25No.
07:27Lid.
07:27To the wonderful Winsome Wincy.
07:33Oh, I'm sorry.
07:34I don't want to buy the book.
07:36I just wanted to look at it.
07:38Thanks.
07:46Why, in the name of Barbara Taylor Bradford,
07:49did you bring me to this godforsaken hellhole?
07:52I didn't.
07:53I still don't understand why you chose to come here.
07:56Never mind.
07:58I have poured blood and sweat and tears into this book.
08:02This book is literally my insides smeared across 265 pages.
08:07Oh, it's not that bad.
08:09I know it's not.
08:10It's a masterpiece.
08:12And all we've managed to achieve so far is one random copy covered in scribble.
08:15I'll see if you've got some tippet.
08:18I would not fix or cover up all the mess that you've made.
08:22Nah.
08:23There's only one way for me to fix things.
08:25You're fired.
08:27What?
08:28You, Ed.
08:30Fired.
08:48Oh, my.
08:50I look like an ice cream.
08:52Is it too much?
08:53It's not enough.
08:54You can always add sprinkles.
08:55I live in pusses.
08:57Oh, my.
08:58If you feel so loud.
09:02I quit.
09:03I quit.
09:04My nine to five.
09:07We're lost in music.
09:09Lost in music.
09:11We're lost in music.
09:13We're lost in music.
09:15I don't know how to repair you.
09:17Well, I call me old-fashioned, but I do tend to ask for money at this stage.
09:20Of course.
09:24Relustin' music.
09:26Just one more thing.
09:31Could I invite the pair of you to my parlour?
09:34I'll give you some free ice cream.
09:36I just need some advice on decor and finishing touches.
09:39I'd love to.
09:40You had me at free ice cream.
09:42Relustin' music.
09:57I'm so sorry.
09:59What? No, don't touch them. They're meant to be in mint condition.
10:02That looks an interesting book.
10:04Yeah, well, it's by a very interesting person.
10:06Oh, no.
10:08John T. Starr.
10:10Indeed. You've probably seen me face on television.
10:12I haven't got a telly.
10:13Mmm, whatever.
10:15Look, I'm about to open an ice cream parlour, and I'd love to give you a free ice cream to
10:20say sorry.
10:21Well, erm, I'd...
10:23Gloria Crud?
10:24That's right.
10:25But you can call me Nickerbocker Gloria.
10:35Oh, no.
10:37I'll be getting so much more than free ice cream.
10:42No, that's fine, Mrs. Gillespie.
10:45Your bichon freeze must come first.
10:48Yeah...
10:48No, right.
10:49OK, so we'll see you in a month, then.
10:52Ta-ra.
10:53It's so annoying.
10:55What is book cancellation?
10:57We could have caught tail end of book signing after all.
10:59Hello there.
11:00My name is John T. Starr.
11:02But you probably know that already.
11:03I do know that.
11:05Let's take a look at all the drizzle and missle.
11:08Ooh!
11:09I've got ails, Jones, the size of tennis balls.
11:12Read my eyes.
11:13So bars.
11:15The weatherman.
11:17Sorry, I've got an app for that.
11:19Oh, have you indeed.
11:21So what services do you offer?
11:24Dry cook, wet cook, styling, setting, colouring.
11:27Balayage, bleaching, colour correction, conditioning.
11:30Indian head massage.
11:31Brazilian blow dry.
11:32Yes, please.
11:33To what?
11:34Everything.
11:36Everything.
11:37Something tells me something's gonna happen to you.
11:43The smile on my face is the smile you will wear in a moment or two.
11:50So get it together, you see, it's gonna be all right.
11:58Something tells me something's gonna happen tonight.
12:03There we go.
12:04As requested, one mahoosive and super stiff quick.
12:08Yeah.
12:09Wow.
12:09Very impressive.
12:11You've exceeded my admittedly rather low expectations.
12:15I can do that.
12:16Oh, thank you.
12:18Right, so we have this funny little hairdresser ritual.
12:21What is it we say at this point?
12:23Oh, yeah.
12:24Cash or card?
12:26Don't think so.
12:27What?
12:28Well, I haven't paid for a haircut in over a decade.
12:31Of course, if you wish to take a picture for the wall,
12:33that's worth so much more than money.
12:35You, er, have been visited by a star.
12:37Ah, the thing is, all my customers are stars.
12:41Yeah.
12:41Yeah, I value every head I have the privilege to work on.
12:44But if this place is to keep going, folk do need to give us some brass.
12:48Mm, okay.
12:49Um, let me, er, let me put this in where you'll understand.
12:53I am an actual star.
12:56I reach millions of people on the telly.
12:59I do blogs and podcasts.
13:02And if you insist on asking me for money,
13:05I'll say things about this place.
13:09Online or on air.
13:11And your little salon
13:14might not be around very much longer.
13:20Fine.
13:21Shut the door on your way out.
13:23Mm-hmm.
13:29Don't...
13:38Oh, Lily, that was awful.
13:41You gave him a lovely due.
13:42He...he should have paid.
13:44He will, Clary.
13:46He will.
13:52I nearly fell asleep.
13:54I thought he'd be funny.
13:55You know, he's good on the telly,
13:56with his isobars and his damp patches.
13:58What can I get you, maidens?
14:01Can I have a chicken and mushroom pie, please?
14:03No, I'm afraid I've no pies left at the moment.
14:06Oh.
14:06Well, I'll have a rock salmon, then.
14:08And I'm just all out of salmon.
14:10You've not got out, have you?
14:11I'll tell you what we have got.
14:13A celebrity.
14:17So, is there anything else I can get you?
14:19Mm.
14:20I'd love to try some more, but I'd rather live.
14:23Just the bill, then?
14:23Ah!
14:25Sorry.
14:26For a moment there, I thought you said the bill.
14:28Oh, I did.
14:29You have had everything on the menu.
14:33Oh, sweet arse.
14:36These kind of people pay for things.
14:38They do some soul-destroying job and just about scrape by.
14:42I pay me way by shining my light upon them,
14:46being, you know, warm and funny.
14:49Fine.
14:50You're about as funny as running out a bog roll.
14:53Oh, well.
14:54What is it they say about pills and swine?
14:56In the name of Odin and Thor of Valhalla,
14:58you will pay your due.
15:00Oh, dear.
15:02I feel a viral moment coming on.
15:05Wave it, Uncle Stan.
15:07Fine.
15:08But it'll get what's coming.
15:13It'll get what you say about it.
15:20Hello?
15:21Any chance for some help with these?
15:24Of course.
15:24Let me ease your burden.
15:27Hello there.
15:29Well, what's in the vibes?
15:30Well, what isn't in the bags?
15:32We've swung by Lonnie's to get some bits for in here.
15:37Right.
15:38Anything you don't want, we'll just take straight back, all right?
15:41Look.
15:41That.
15:42Got you that.
15:43And I got you that.
15:44And look.
15:45Got you these.
15:46Oh, they're fabulous.
15:48Aren't they?
15:48And I thought if you wanted a chilled and swirly vibe,
15:52you could put lava lamps on each of the tables.
15:54Oh, no.
15:56What?
15:57They're an explosion and shatter hazard.
15:59Plus, they're full of carbon tetrachloride.
16:01Wouldn't want that on your ice cream.
16:02And, er, I don't have time to pat-test them.
16:05Who knew?
16:06I'm so lucky to have Albert Einstein keeping an eye on me.
16:10What's in the other bag?
16:11Oh, they're just my old clothes.
16:12I'm going to take them to the charity shop in a bit.
16:14I can do that for you.
16:15Oh, that's not necessary.
16:17Look, I live just over the road.
16:18I really don't mind.
16:19Look, it's fine.
16:20OK.
16:22OK.
16:22Now, look, while you're here, can I try some recipes on you?
16:26Banana split, key lime sundae, and my knickerbocker gloria.
16:30Yes.
16:55Oh, hell, man.
16:58Oh, my God.
17:01Oh, hi.
17:38Oh, Gloria.
17:48Right, well, I'll take these to the charity shop and I'll see you tomorrow.
17:52Goodnight, all.
17:53Night, you.
17:54Must see if that freezer's still working.
17:56That is a good plan.
17:58So, Gloria, is there anything else we can do for you?
18:01You've already done so much, but you know my big gala opening on Friday?
18:06Mm?
18:07You've got such good taste in music.
18:09Could you come over and spin a few tunes?
18:13Yes, we could.
18:15You all right?
18:17Everything's wonderful.
18:18I'm not used to that.
18:20I just keep thinking, when's it all going to go horribly wrong?
18:25Oh.
18:25Oh.
18:28Oh.
18:33Please, Uncle Stan, you can't give up.
18:36Think of the gods of Asgard.
18:39Look at the gods of Asgard.
18:41Hello.
18:42You're not opening today?
18:44It's his uncle.
18:45He says he's had enough.
18:46He's shutting up shop.
18:47Oh, we can't do that.
18:48We'd all starve.
18:49Good morning.
18:50Could I place my lunchtime order for the ice cream parlour?
18:53Might be waiting a while.
18:55Ready?
18:55I'll check the back.
19:25Yeah.
19:26And the ice cream parlour, even though it hasn't opened yet.
19:28I'm in cheek.
19:29He said if we didn't charge him, he wouldn't do that.
19:32It does seem a bit over the top to shut up shop over one bad review.
19:35Oh, that's Vikings for you.
19:37Over the top?
19:38I'll give you over the top.
19:41That lying weather scum's chosen the wrong warrior to do battle with.
19:46Valhalla!
19:47With chips!
19:50Valhalla!
19:51With chips!
19:53Valhalla!
19:54With chips!
20:10Oh, hello.
20:12I'm ever so sorry.
20:13I was just worming my whippets.
20:16Hello.
20:16Do you have a Mr Jonti star staying with you?
20:20No, I'm not at liberty to divulge.
20:22But if a famous television personality did come to this village,
20:26I'm sure this is where he would stay.
20:29Is he in the penthouse?
20:31Well, again, my lips are sealed,
20:34but that's where I would put him.
20:37Come on!
20:41We do just ask if you could just put your name down in the book.
20:48Open the door!
20:50In the name of Thor and Odin!
20:53Okay, we're not gonna hurt him, right?
20:54We're just gonna ask him to pay what he owes.
20:56I do wish people would learn to hang pictures.
20:57That's 45 degrees off the perpendicular.
20:59I think we should go.
21:00He must have checked out by now.
21:01That is not quite accurate.
21:04The door appears to be locked from the inside.
21:06I've got something that'll dismantle any lock.
21:09Oh, Stan, it's made of rubber.
21:11Not that.
21:19Is he there?
21:21Is he hiding?
21:22What's he got to say for himself?
21:24Hey?
21:25You really don't want to go.
21:26Why? What?
21:32Don't look at me.
21:33I didn't like the guy, but...
21:36I think he's been writing something.
21:38Probably destroying someone else's career.
21:44No, that's not him.
21:48Looks like the killer has written her a review of the murder.
21:52Jonty put up surprisingly little struggle.
21:55A few feeble kicks.
21:57A pleading look in his eye.
21:58No stars.
22:10So, where are the others?
22:12They're talking to the police.
22:14PC Adam.
22:14They'll be there a while then.
22:16He does love a chat.
22:18Now, I've made us all some coffee.
22:21For the shock.
22:24There we go.
22:24That's very kind.
22:27What kind of sick puppy would do something like that?
22:31Well, I'm not one to gossip.
22:33Oh, but if you were?
22:34When I was at the book launch,
22:37Jonty had a personal assistant.
22:38I think her name was Susie.
22:39Anyway, she had that sticky tape.
22:41She was on her knees taking the fluff off his trousers.
22:45So she was sorting his kecks out?
22:47Yeah.
22:48And why does that mean that she wanted him slain?
22:51Just saying.
22:53Oh, Clary.
22:54What's this I hear about a murder?
22:57Oh, it's Jonty's star.
22:59You know, the weatherman.
23:01We found the body.
23:03Oh, no.
23:04Now, obviously, I am not a trained counsellor,
23:06but I do work with my hands,
23:08and they are very good at giving hugs.
23:15Hugh Fletcher.
23:17Hello, Constable.
23:19How did you get past the police cordon?
23:22I just had a word with him.
23:23His mum loves my mum.
23:24We go way back.
23:26Well, I'm glad.
23:27We believe that there may be
23:28a malicious communication element to this,
23:30so we're asking everyone on the scene
23:32to hand over their digital devices.
23:34It's true.
23:35We've all handed in our phones.
23:37I'm enjoying the silence.
23:40Yeah.
23:42You all right?
23:45Now, er,
23:46we need a bit of space,
23:47so could everyone please leave the crime scene?
23:50Oh!
23:52See ya.
23:54That was kind, Clary.
24:04It looks like a locked-a-room murder.
24:06Mm.
24:07But...
24:08I mean, it can't be.
24:10So maybe...
24:11the killer got out through the window.
24:13Or went up through the attic.
24:15Or maybe the killer was in the room when we broke in.
24:19Oh.
24:20Hiding under the bed.
24:22And...
24:23that review that the killer wrote,
24:25well, that suggests that the killer was taking revenge
24:27for one of Jonte's reviews.
24:28Or...
24:29it was a brilliant double bluff.
24:31Erm, excuse me.
24:32Do either of you own a red Audi?
24:34It's been here all day,
24:35and it's in a shocking state.
24:42I don't think much of their valet parking services.
24:46Hey, look in the back.
24:52Ah.
24:53I think Adam needs to know about this.
24:56Thanks for the intel.
24:57It was his car,
24:58though he was driven everywhere by his personal assistant.
25:00Susie.
25:01How do you know that?
25:02I'm a very good friend of Wincy's.
25:05Well, we need to have a word with Susie.
25:08It's highly likely that whoever smashed up his car
25:10then went on to murder him.
25:11We should now be getting some CCTV.
25:13Do you know when, roughly, that he died?
25:15Well, according to his phone records,
25:17we reckon around midnight,
25:18which is interesting.
25:19Yes?
25:20Yeah, well, anyone could have got into the motel.
25:22It's not exactly Fort Knox.
25:23But how did the killer get Jonte
25:25to open his bedroom door at midnight?
25:27It must have been somebody they knew and trusted.
25:33Well, speaking of opening things,
25:35we need to open the salon.
25:36You can stay with PC Watson,
25:37but I desperately need to walk off that Black Forest ghetto.
25:45And slide.
25:47And slide.
25:48And slide.
25:48And got it.
25:49You know what I don't get?
25:51Yeah.
25:51It's why Jonte came here to do his book launch.
25:54I mean, surely he'd have sold more copies in Manchester.
25:57I think he must have roots here or something.
25:59We've got a lovely market
26:00with half-priced doughnuts on a Wednesday,
26:02but he doesn't look like he eats sugar.
26:04No, don't shush me.
26:07No, there's someone there.
26:17What are you staring at?
26:18I don't mean to creep you out, but...
26:21Is your name Susie?
26:23Who wants to know?
26:25Well, quite a lot of people.
26:27Did he used to work for Jonte's store?
26:28I gave the best years of my life
26:30to that ungrateful, hateful little weather pillock.
26:35He... he's dead.
26:39What?
26:41They found his body at the motel.
26:44Not Jonte.
26:46Not my poor baby.
26:48I think the police want to have a word with you.
26:51Well, it's really not convenient.
26:53Well, you can try that, but I don't think it'll fly.
26:57I mean, I haven't slept.
26:59I look like a scarecrow
27:00and I've got a fox poo in my hair.
27:03I actually think we've got shampoo for that.
27:07Right, let's get you seated.
27:09Oh, thanks, love.
27:10Feels so good to be clean.
27:12I know, it's heaven, isn't it?
27:15Nothing better,
27:16apart, perhaps, from the healing power...
27:21of music.
27:24Oh, I love this one.
27:27Me and all.
27:28Right.
27:29So what are we gonna do with these luscious locks?
27:32Luscious?
27:33Jonte used to call me the human brillo pattern.
27:35Oh, that's not very nice.
27:37What was he like then, as a boss?
27:39Oh, he was wonderful.
27:42Except when he was being a total nightmare.
27:43Yeah.
27:44And he was kind.
27:46Except when he turned sadistic,
27:48he changed, like, the weather, really.
27:50But basically, he was...
27:53He was, um...
27:56He was beautiful.
27:57Oh.
28:00It's lovely.
28:03You are giving me some mixed messages, though.
28:06He was a little boy lost, really, and...
28:08When he was writing his book,
28:10there's this one detail he left out,
28:11because it was too raw,
28:12he didn't want people to know it.
28:14And what was that?
28:17Ah, go on, you've got to tell us now.
28:20Jonte was adopted as a baby.
28:23And he could never understand
28:24why his birth mother gave him away.
28:26It haunted him.
28:29Did he look for her?
28:30Did he ever meet her?
28:32Well, I suggested that he would just...
28:34Susie Bagshot?
28:36Yes?
28:38I'm arresting you on suspicion of murder.
28:40No, I...
28:40You do not have to say anything,
28:41but it may harm your defence
28:42if you do not mention when questioned
28:43something which you later rely on in court.
28:48Just throw it back there, please.
28:57Wait.
28:59Can I have a word?
29:00I'm a bit busy, what with apprehending murderers, but...
29:03We saw her smashing up his car yesterday evening.
29:06It was on CCTV,
29:07and then she ran in the direction of the motel, so...
29:10Well, when we found her,
29:11she was sat behind some bins in an alleyway
29:13drinking Cypriot cooking wine.
29:16Don't you think if she'd just murdered someone
29:19that she'd run?
29:22Look, just...
29:24Just leave the police business to me.
29:26Yeah?
29:28Fine.
29:29Yeah, I'll...
29:30I'll get back to me here.
29:45All right.

34:57my hair was shampooed by a clueless assistant
34:59a brain-dead bouffant barbie doll
35:01I mean
35:02I don't know what you're talking about
35:05John T's awful review of the salon
35:08oh
35:08oh
35:09I actually hadn't read it
35:11Hugh Fletcher
35:14could I have a word
35:16yep
35:18I was hoping to return your phone
35:20but we may have to hold on to it for a bit longer
35:22I don't see why
35:22I never had any dealings with a man
35:24no but
35:25you do have quite a collection of photos of a young hairdresser
35:28called Clary
35:29her face
35:30her hair
35:31her body
35:32it's not illegal
35:33there's nothing obscene or indecent

35:37to take to the charity shop

35:40he hadn't received them yet
35:41yeah well

36:19because safety
36:20fine
36:20a certain something that I've always wanted to do
36:22what is it?
36:24I would love to be
36:26a drag queen
36:27what?
36:28huh
36:28now I know I'm just an awkward Welsh handyman
36:30but I have a desire to perform
36:32to get in touch with my feminine side
36:34no higher aim
36:35and Clary dear
36:36I have been studying your hair
36:37your makeup
36:38your je ne sais quoi
36:40can I use you as my style icon?
36:42oh of course
36:44oh see that's not weird now
36:45yeah
36:46oh hey everyone
36:47I've just looked outside and there's a queue past the chipping
36:50no
36:51let's scoop some ice cream
36:52oh
37:00oh
37:00oh
37:00oh
37:08well turned up
37:10and I bet my Japanese Scissors the killer is here tonight
37:13Right. But how did they get into Jonte's room? What did Jonte love more than anything else?
37:21Himself? Yeah. And money? Yeah. And fame? Yeah. Being in the limelight.
37:27Oh, that's it? Light? Spin some discs for me.
37:33Okay.
37:54Hey, Parker. Fancy a chin-wag?
38:11I, um, do need to keep an eye on things. The possible health and safety breaches.
38:17Oh, yeah. You're very good at that, aren't you? I remember you'd gone to check the freezers,
38:21hadn't you, when Jonte came round. So you must have heard the argy-bargy.
38:24Jonte, please. I want every penny, every, every ice cream you sell, every rum and raisin,
38:31every raspberry ripple. It all comes to me.
38:35I might have heard him, but, um, he ran off. Locked himself in his room.
38:40We've only your word for that, though, weren't we?
38:43And the door appears to be locked from the inside.
38:46See, I think the door was locked from the outside. And when we broke in, you put key back in
38:52keyhole.
38:55But how could I have got into his room in order to kill him?
38:59Yeah, I've been wondering about that.
39:01And then I thought, maybe the killer didn't go into the room.
39:07Maybe he lured Jonte out. And how would you do that?
39:11Well, a friendly neighbourhood electrician would just go to Fusebox, turn off all the power to Jonte's room,
39:16and then Jonte, who liked nothing more than a mammoth whinge,
39:20would come powering out, belly aching, in the dark, in a state of total confusion.
39:28Get up! Get up, Meg!
39:34You knew he was drunk as a skunk.
39:37Didn't take much to suffocate him.
39:40And then you went back with us, so that if the police found any traces of you,
39:44you could say you left them there that morning and not the night before.
39:46Why would I kill him? I hardly knew the man.
39:54Gloria thinks you're the sweetest, kindest man on earth.
39:57She is the sweetest, kindest person.
40:06You saw what her husband did to her, didn't you?
40:09All those years.
40:11Yes.
40:14He was like a schoolboy, pulling the wings off an insect.
40:19And I couldn't do anything.
40:22And then he died, and she got her life back together, and she started this amazing place.
40:29And then Jonte turned up.
40:31He wanted to destroy everything.
40:34She deserves to finally be happy.
40:39Listen, he was not a nice man.
40:43But I don't think anyone deserves to die like that.
40:47And now your problem is everyone is going to think it was Gloria.
40:50They are.
40:51The police, the press, every neighbourhood gossip.
40:54No.
40:55That was not my intended outcome.
40:57Yeah, but that is what's going to happen.
40:59Unless you step up and you do the right thing.
41:02I really messed things up, haven't I?
41:13Oh, it's my guardian angel.
41:16Thank you for having faith in me.
41:18Oh, you are so welcome.
41:21And Parky.
41:22Yes.
41:23You have been my rock.
41:25I could never have done it without you.
41:27Yes.
41:30Well, I think from now on you might have to.
41:34Sorry.
41:35But please, whatever happens, don't let anyone ruin your dreams.
41:42PC Adam.
41:44Yeah?
41:46There's something I've got to confess.
42:04Do you like custard cream with that?
42:06Oh, no, Tara.
42:07I'm still stuffed of ice cream.
42:08Yeah.
42:09It's still swilling around inside me.
42:13Susie!
42:14You wouldn't believe the week I've had.
42:15Oh, we would, actually.
42:17And the worst part is, I never got my lovely hair cut.
42:21My luscious locks are solely in need of attention.
42:24Well, we can soon fix that for you.
42:26You're in luck.
42:27Quiet day at Salah.
42:28Not out there, it's not.
42:30There's this very loud woman stomping round town in platform boots.

43:01Really?
43:01You're not just saying that to be nice.
43:04Well, I...
43:05What's wrong with us all being nice to each other, eh?
