The media narrative needs challenging.

I'm offering legal
support and public support.

I do not need help I did not ask for it.

Nathaniel claimed that he
and Kiri were separated.

But if he didn't do it, who did?

Our son didn't do this.

- Are you sure about that?
- Why was her T-shirt in your waste bin?

- Why do you ask?
- I need to ask.

- Should I be calling my lawyer, Mum?
- Car keys, please.

- I won't be long.
- Ali...

I remembered something.
Something that I saw.

- Hey.
- What?

It's nothing.

An ancient gold BMW

outside our house in our back lane.

I thought I'd tell you immediately.

Everything's useful.

Hi.

Hi.

Why are there two condom
wrappers on your table?

I have discovered,

later in life, I quite
like the way a condom feels.

Didn't used to like it, increasingly do.

I didn't wanna have sex with you.

Going to the police
station... bit of a surprise.

I remember that.

You came home with
three bottles of wine.

Also a surprise!

Yeah.

- But then...
- Then there was...

... the surprise of this.

That lie to the police.

Remembering the car like that,

and knowing they hadn't released
the information about the car.

Well, then, you always were...

... so beautiful.

- Jim...
- Kiss me.

You know I've done a terrible
thing, right? A man is going to jail.

Kiss me.

Mm...

Mm.

OK.

All I needed.

I'll get some breakfast together.

What you doing me for now?

So, we've new evidence.

What new evidence?

About the death of Kiri.

You never say her second
name, you know that?

She's still Akindele.

She still is.

We had trouble tracking your
movements between 1:40 and 6pm

- on the day she died.
- I told you where I was.

- I was looking for Kiri.
- We located your car at 1:35

and at 6:05, and then we
found it dumped at 11pm.

I dumped it. I didn't
want you looking for me.

So, you mostly looked
for your daughter on foot?

You thought that was the easiest
way of keeping track of her?

- Yeah, she was on foot.
- She took a bus.

I know... home.

That proved we were separated.

And we now have evidence which points
to you having followed her there.

But I didn't even know where she lived!

A man with a history of violence

abducts his daughter without
her or anyone else's consent,

he takes her to the park,

he's observed arguing with her,
and his car is placed at the scene

where she's abducted again.

- My car wasn't there.
- Your car has been identified as being there.

- No.
- And we can't place you elsewhere.

You followed her into the house.

She ran ahead of you

- and you followed her in.
- No, no, no.

You followed her in. You pulled her out,

you took her back to
where you wanted to be,

your father-daughter day on the Downs.

- No!
- What did she do up there?

What did she do up there that upset you?

Did she refuse to play
with you, is that it?

Was she being difficult?
Was she angry? Rude?

How did she upset you?

Did she try and run away
again... was that it?

- No, it was none of this.
- She enraged you,

and you threw her to the floor.

We even identified
the rock that she hit.

- No!
- You threw her to the floor.

- No!
- You placed your hands

- around her throat and you killed her.
- No!

ALARM RINGS

I didn't touch her!

I told you, I told you what happened!

OK?

It doesn't have to be forever.

No.

Just until we get your
academic record back on track.

We know how bright you are.

Live in?

For these schools, yes.

We won't...

We don't have a wide choice.

I've had Margaret contact
a number of them personally.

These will take you immediately...

and without much difficulty.

Immediately.

Home might not be the healthiest
environment for you right now.

In which of these do you
think I am most likely

to be raped by older boys?

It's a joke.

Neither of you are saying much.

What are you doing?

- Which do you think? This or this?
- I could have been asleep.

You could've been doing worse than that.

They're your grandparents...
do you want them to fancy you?

I want them to like me.

Tell me, please.

You were just putting that in my bin.

- Yeah.
- You are surprisingly disgusting.

Yeah.

The one on the right makes
you look like a little girl,

and the one on the
left makes you look like

you spend too much time in the library.

Are you sure this one makes
me look like a little girl?

Yeah.

OK. Tanquebec.

Peasamuss. Also in the bin?

Also.

Wanna watch some TV?

OK.

KNOCK AT DOOR

KNOCK AT DOOR

Hi.

- Hello.
- How are you doing?

Shit.

You?

Bit better than that.

Where's Jessie?

Vet's.

- Oh, expensive.
- Yeah.

And he might die.

Oh.

Fancy a walk?

DOG BARKS

- Shut up!
- That dog's barking at you.

Come here! Get over here. Shut up!

I feel like a rotting carcass.

Maybe it can smell that fact.

I've always admired how good you look.

- No, you haven't.
- I have, actually!

You always wear
foundation and everything.

Well, you wouldn't want to
see me without foundation.

Yeah, well, it's nice.

I'm really glad you've come in.

I've actually cleaned.

Tried to clean.

There was quite a lot to
get out, stains and stuff.

- Yeah, you done well.
- Well, I have visitors, you see.

Visitors I wanted to...

Hello, Miss.

Is this an intervention? Because
someone tried that once before.

Paul Allbrook, Miss.

Paul Allbrook?

I wanted to lay it out all nice,

have a little party, put
out sausage rolls, but

cleaning took it out of me so
there ain't no sausage rolls.

There's a care
leavers'... Facebook group.

She put out some notes
out. She did well.

Naughty Paul Allbrook?

Plasterer Paul Allbrook now.

I'm still naughty
every now - and again.-

I haven't seen you in 20 years.

Since you placed me. Yes, Miss.

Maggie Raynott.

Fuckin' hell.

I know. I went blonde and got fat.

- You look wonderful.
- Only cos you sorted me out, Miss.

Put me down in Worthing,
do you remember?

- Course I remember.
- I'd run twice from foster care

and you still got me a home.

Gold medal for effort, that.

They all wanted to see you.

I hope you don't mind it's a surprise.

I figured if I invited
you, you might not come.

I wouldn't come if someone
invited me to a party.

Richard.

Pentlow. You've got big.

Gym bunny.

Part-own a club with my
old man. Adopted old man.

Leicester. You set that up.

We'd throw you a parade.

There's others, you know.

But we'd be shit at a parade,
so this is all you get. Sorry.

Oh, no. This is plenty.

Those fuckers can say what
they like in the papers,

but we know what you are, what you did

and we just want to say thanks, really.

Well, that... That...

That's...

But the thing is, I really
appreciate you doing this,

but I don't deserve it,
because my negligence

killed a girl. It was my fault.

And I will never... I can never...

MIRIAM SOBS

There was no untoward
behaviour on our part,

but most of the damage was
done by him, as it turns out.

- OK.
- He has now calmed down.

It's been a bit of an
emotional time for him.

Did they do this?

No.

Why did you do it?

Soon as they get me back to the station,

they're going to charge me, Dad.

- I'm going to jail.
- We knew that.

For killing her.

They say I followed her.

Someone spotted my car near her house,

but it wasn't.

It can't have been. I didn't
even know where they lived.

And why was it there?

It wasn't. Someone's lying.

Or I am.

Fuck.

You still can't decide, can you?

Take a seat.

You haven't brought a representative.

She disapproved of my methods.
I can handle this myself.

OK.

Miriam, we're here to
tell you that our inquiry

has returned with its findings.

Yeah, before you say anything,
I've decided I'd like to resign.

No, there are a few
things I need to say first.

I accept full responsibility
for the mistakes I made.

No, you can't. You can't resign.

- Why not?
- Can I just... ?

Can I just read through this, please?

There are going to be some key
recommendations from our report

which will lead to changes
not just in our jurisdiction

- but also nationwide.
- I couldn't give a fuck about any of this.

Er, Miriam, everything
here is going on the record.

You understand that. So
swearing probably isn't great...

I don't get to resign
because you need to fire me?

Right?

Recommendations in particular about
supervision for which Julie Bennett

has been officially admonished
and her last pay grade

- review has been revoked.
- You all earn too much money anyway,

according to the Daily Hate.

You didn't publish Julie's pay, though.

Slightly above the
shit I got, I suspect.

- Good of you to dock it.
- We have informed the HCPC, who will...

Yeah, listen, Billy Big
Bollocks. I don't give a shit.

And of course, the House of Commons,
who are pursuing it independently

and are likely to come back
with their own recommendations,

which we will gratefully implement.

Oh.

No smart comment to that.

Don't think you should be
grateful, to be honest. Not to them.

- Don't think any of us should.
- Just tell her where she's at.

Look, I have to read through this.

Will you just skip to the end,
please, James, for all our sakes?

OK, OK.

We found that you were grossly
negligent in this matter,

that you did try and
influence the decision-making

of those closest to Kiri,

and this led to a distorted situation

which ultimately had her
granted an unsupervised visit

that was both not appropriate
and - as it turns out - dangerous.

Well, that's that, isn't it?

You do, of course, have the right
to appeal if you want to fight it.

So many things we should fight
for... the way they treat us,

the way they treat our kids,
the way they cut us to a crisp

and still condemn us for
the slightest mistake.

But me? No, no, no.

This was a cock up and
a fucking horrible one,

and I do accept responsibility for it,

so I'm not interested in
fighting for me. Not any more.

But you did not fire me!

I resigned!

And one final thing.

For the record, I loved this job.

Um...

Miriam...

I...

I liked working with you.

I learned a lot from you.

OK, love. Thank you.

- Hello, Mum.
- Hello.

Nurses say you've been behaving a bit.

Liars.

Two things you need to know.

One, I was bloody good at
my job once upon a time,

and two, I'm broke.

One, I know.

- And two, I assumed...
- They're not even sure,

they may fight my right to
have pension. I'll get my...

There's an online petition
demanding that I don't get it.

- So...
- You'll be fine.

You're like a bobbing
bottle, you are, you.

I can't afford to keep you here.

Well, just put me in a sack
and throw me off a cliff.

You're coming in with
me, end of the month.

- Do you want that?
- Well, I get a carer's allowance then...

pittance that it is...

and your allowances, and without the
fees from this place, we'll get by.

Won't be comfortable, but we'll get by.

That OK with you?

So you just want me for
the carer's allowance.

Yes.

Yes, it's OK with me.
Course it's OK with me!

- Is it?
- I'd like it.

- You'd like it.
- Very much so.

Please don't ruin this moment
by saying something racist.

I'm not going to do that!

I wasn't expecting you to be
the good thing about today, Mum.

DOOR BUZZES

You're back.

Yeah, full discharge. No damage.

To my head, at least.

I'm sorry if I scared you.

Nathaniel Akindele, you are
charged that on or before May 17th,

within the jurisdiction of
the Central Criminal Court,

you murdered Kiri Akindele and
that is contrary to common law.

In answer to that charge,

you do not have to say anything
unless you wish to do so,

but anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

No reply.

Thank you,

for using her full name.

Washing up?

Oh,

hi.

Shall I dry?

No, I'm fine. Let it drain.

Correct me if I'm wrong,
but our relationship

seems to have deteriorated
in the last couple of days.

We're fine.

The question I'm asking, Mum,
is, why aren't you talking to me?

- I am talking to you.
- Why aren't you looking at me, then?

I am looking at you.

Is it because of him? The lover?

If you want to see the
lover, you can see the lover.

- I am not seeing the lover.
- Is it because you wanted me to fight back

when you suggested boarding school?

- Was it Dad's idea?
- I'm just tired.

That's all. Don't worry.

You saw they charged her dad

- with the crime.
- Yeah. Can't understand why, though.

Thought that's why they
interviewed us, cos he wasn't there.

It was me, I think.

I remembered I saw a car.

Near here.

Turns out it was his car.

Oh.

Was this after you found
her T-shirt in my bin?

I didn't know it was his car.

No further questions.

OK.

LOUD CHATTER

I believe there's nothing left
in my house for you to search for.

Have you got somewhere
private we can talk?

If anyone asks, you called
me, asked me to come over.

I'll get in a lot of
trouble if they find out

that I came here voluntarily.

Why are you here?

You remind me of my dad.

- You grew up in care.
- He visited.

Not a good man.

Not a great one.

So...

what do you want with
me, Detective Inspector?

Mm? To role-play a better relationship

with your dead relative?

- We've charged your son.
- I heard.

The CPS have decided that
the evidence is strong enough.

And what do you think?

He needs a defence.

Sounds like you think you may
have made the wrong decision.

- Why would you feel that?
- Your son needs a defence

and I need to know that
you're going to get him one.

- You feel an injustice has occurred?
- No.

No, I think, probably, on
balance, I think he did it.

I wouldn't have charged him on the
evidence, but I know why they did.

There's motive, opportunity
and a history of violence.

And I also know men like you.

I know how weak you are

and I need to know that
someone is supporting that boy.

- That boy is a man.
- No.

No, he's not. YOU'RE the man.

- What game are you playing?
- If you don't start looking after him,

that boy will end up in
jail, never to emerge.

That's the only game here.

SHE SIGHS

Thanks for meeting me.

Thanks for not turning
up at my house unannounced

and getting me in shit
with your mum again.

It's weird, isn't it?

Being back here?

Yeah.

Do you believe in the truth?

Yes.

Do you believe we always
need to know the truth?

People need to know the truth?

Yes, I think so.

Kid gets born with both sexual organs.

Doctor makes the decision
to make the kid a girl.

I think they'd need to know.

Kid gets put into care, one
parent having murdered the other.

We'd have to talk to them about that

before they discovered
it for themselves.

Kid gets abused quite badly
by one parent or the other

then forgets everything.
It's all on file,

but nothing in the public domain.

Well, they'd have to know.

And better coming from me cos
there's procedures for all this.

Fascinating.

So, what age...

do you tell them?

'Nia, you're six now.

It's time to tell you your
dad raped you up the bum.'

- Yeah, it's not a thing to joke about, maybe.
- I'm serious.

The truth comes out...

when?

Mum followed you that day, didn't she?

The day you took Kiri
to her grandparents'.

The day Kiri met her dad.

What does it matter now?

Wow, she followed you.

Si, I don't know what all this is about.

It's nothing. Just interested.

See if you knew how mental Mum was.

I never told Kiri how she was found.

It was a nasty one.

Terrible state she was in.

Severe malnutrition, drug withdrawal

and she was sitting beside
her mum's dead body...

had been for over 16 hours, they reckon.

So I never told her
the truth about that.

So, you're right... there aren't
always parameters for the truth.

She mattered to me.

Maybe...

it's just luck I found her the
week after my son died, so...

that probably...

Maybe it's more than that.

Perhaps she mattered most of all,
perhaps that wasn't good for her.

And I let her down.

I think I may have let her down too.

You're just a kid.

I don't feel like one.

TV: I can this morning confirm

that a 28-year-old man of no fixed abode

has been charged with the
murder of Kiri Akindele,

- a crime that has had a decimating impact.
- They got him, then.

- Good.
- The man will appear in custody tomorrow

at Bristol Magistrates'
Court... at 10am.

- I would merely add that...
- That's great.

... I'd ask people to respect
the privacy of Kiri's family.

And as this matter
will now be sub judice,

it would be inappropriate
to answer any questions.

That was Detective
Inspector Vanessa Mercer

speaking live from Bristol, where...

REPORTERS SHOUT QUESTIONS

There are those...

There are those would question my right

to call Kiri my daughter,

but today is about one person

and one person only.

Remember her.

Remember her.

Remember her.

Remember her.

Remember her.

Alice, do you think he did it?

So do you think he did it, then?

Alice, do you think he did it?

You getting ready for something?

Just trying to look presentable.

Mum's out. So is this for the
reporters outside or for me?

Do you think they'll win?

In court, I mean.

- I'd have thought so.
- And you're pleased about that?

Mum thinks it was me, I think.

- Who did what?
- Who killed her.

- That's not true.
- That's not true it wasn't me,

or that's not true Mum thinks that?

No-one thinks you did this.

She can't hardly look at me,

which, considering she is probably
essentially the only person

I give a fuck about other than myself,

is a bit tragic.

OK, Si.

Are you not that sad

that you're not on the list
of people I give a fuck about?

Actually, until recently, I had
someone else I gave a fuck about. Kiri.

And I've been thinking about it.

I think, or figure,

it was probably you

who killed her.

Nathaniel,

Nate...

... killed his daughter.

He's been charged with the crime.

- His car was seen near our house.
- By Mum.

- Yes.
- Who knew what car he was driving

because she saw it when she followed
Miriam with Kiri that morning.

No-one knew, right?

That she knew what car he was driving.

Clever Mum.

- Si...
- It's all right, I'm not going to say anything,

cos if I reveal it's you,

the abuse that social worker suffered

won't be anything compared to the
pain the tabloids inflict on us.

At school I'll be a psycho
pervert with a murderer dad.

Mum may even go to prison for collusion,

in which case I'll probably
end up in care, which,

though pleasingly ironic, no-one wants.

You're talking bollocks.

I can't even tell Mum the truth
because if she was knew it was you,

she wouldn't let you get away with it,

whereas me, she'll lie for me.

- You were home. Why?
- I wasn't actually.

- I was at work with Dave.
- Dave lied.

You know, I actually tried
to take the blame for you.

Why were you home, Dad?

- How fucked up are you?
- Very. How fucked up are YOU?

- Why were you home, Dad?
- No.

No, I'm not doing this.

You were scared when you had done it.

You ran around in a panic,
removing all suspicious things.

You went into my room. Why?

Fucking hell. You went into my room

and found a bloodied sock in my bin.

But you were too much of a dick
to realise that the T-shirt,

also in my bin, wasn't mine.

Mum did. Mum realised it was Kiri's.

And she said, 'What was her
T-shirt doing in your bin?'

Not, 'What was her fucking
bloodied sock doing in your bin?'

- That proves... !
- Oh, so it's proof now, is it?

I don't need proof... I know.

And Mum can know too, if you want.

And you can gamble on
her not saying anything

or you can be honest with me.

Please realise the opportunity
that I'm giving you here.

I wanted to talk to him.

I wasn't going up there to hurt her.

I wanted to talk to him.

To hurt him.

I came home and found her packing.

Packing?

For a trip with her real dad.

She kept saying she wasn't
going forever, just for a bit,

but that's what she wanted
to do, to get to know him.

So I said I'd drive her there,

to him. She knew I was angry.

I asked her where he was. She
said the town. So I put her

and her packed bag

in the car.

We searched and searched.

And when he wasn't there,
you needed something to hit.

She wanted to stop the adoption.

Your mother would leave
me, you'd get even worse.

I was just saying to her, 'Realise
what you have here. Wake up!'

What did you do, Dad?

She wouldn't... She wouldn't...

She wouldn't listen.

We saved her!

We saved her.

Better life? We gave
her fucking everything.

Fucking drug baby?

What, and then she wanted to turn
round and say we weren't good enough

because of biology, because
of the colour of our faces?

No, no, NO!

I'm not having that.

What did you do, Dad?

She was upset.

HE GROANS

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

She wanted to go home and I didn't...

She ran from me.

I ran after her.

I grabbed her.

She fell. She smacked
her head on a rock.

How was I going to explain that?

You do understand.

I tried to tell your
mum. I tried to tell her.

When I thought they could blame
you, I said I'd take the blame.

She made it Nate's
fault without me and...

And I wasn't going to contradict her.

I mean, he doesn't matter.
He caused it all so...

You promised you wouldn't say anything.

DOOR OPENS

- I need guarantees.
- I was going to offer coffee or tea.

You must be Rochelle.

I have little money but everything,

my house, everything I've
got, his defence can have.

- I can try and provide...
- I want this to be about him.

Not about whatever
damn campaign you're on.

I think something has gone wrong

- and your son represents...
- My son is innocent.

And we'll try as hard
as we can to prove that.

Good.

Now, do I need to sign anything?

Then...

black, one sugar.

HE CHUCKLES

- You're going to tell me he's dead.
- No.

You're going to tell me he's
not going to live very long.

He's got a few months left.

Maybe as much as a year. We
actually had quite a successful time.

You did?

He's going to have to
wear a cone for a bit.

I hate those cones. But
he won't be in any pain.

He's going to be a
whole lot better, Miriam.

Fucking hell, I might be
slightly in love with you.

I know. That's taking it too
far. I might sleep with you.

OK, well, not everything's
shit, then, is it?

I'll bring him out.

- Who's that? Who's that?
- You look ludicrous.

Yeah, you'd better be affectionate.

You need me to feed you because

no-one else will with
you looking like that.

Hey!

Right.

What are we going to do now?

What are we going to do now?

MUFFLED CHANTING

- No justice!
- CROWD: No peace! No racist police!

- No justice!
- No peace! No racist police!

- No justice!
- No peace! No racist police!

- No justice!
- No peace! No racist police!

- OUTSIDE: No justice!
- No peace! No racist police!

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

CHANTING CONTINUES

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud!

So, here we are.

The future.

This place will be fine.

I'll be fine.

Good to spend some of Dad's money.

On which note, this spending
spree includes the divorce, right?

- ... Probably.
- Yeah, I'd really encourage that.

Cos Dad is...

Well...

... I'm going to say something
now and I don't want you to reply.

OK?

I love you.

I just want you to know
that whatever else happens

and whatever you may think of me

that I love you.

- I love you too.
- No, I didn't want you to reply.

And that's not true.

Maybe some day, given time...

... it can be true again.

Anyway, that's all I had to say.

I rehearsed that.

Prick that I am.
