ALARM SOUNDS

Right, everyone out.

Come on, come on.

What are you doing?
What are you doing?!

Help! Help me!

No!

Go! That way.

ALARM CONTINUES

Shit!

Come on, move!

No! No!

No! Help me!

You lost something, boss?

ALARM STOPS

It's under control.
You can go back in now.

DOOR SLAMS AND IS LOCKED

Evening.
I'm Detective Inspector Dan Mason.

Hi. Dr Nikki Alexander.

This is my colleague,
Jack Hodgson. Hi.

Shall we? Mm-hm.

The name's Jay Selwyn.
27 years old.

Been in here nine years.

That right?

evacuated the whole team.

Jay must have got left behind.

I'd like to speak to
that supervisor. Not possible.

They cracked his head open.

We know who attacked him?
Oh, yeah.

Lewis Harvey.
He's our resident maniac.

He's in an isolation cell now.

He got trapped in here? Um,
mechanism does appear to be broken,

so he wouldn't have been
able to open it from the inside.

There's no damage
to the inside of the door, though,

so no indication he was
trying to force it open, either.

Jay Selwyn,
wrong place, wrong time.

Thoughts, then?

Well, there's no blood traces
in here.

Nikki?

Um?

What do you think?

Ah...

Well, he has lacerations to his face
and bruising around the left eye.

The prisoners get their deliveries
on a Wednesday. Deliveries?

Yeah, they can
order stuff with their money

if they've been well behaved.

It's all used as currency in here,

so Wednesdays is
always a bit tense.

Do you think that's how
he could have got these injuries?

It's when all the debts are settled.

What have you found?

Shepherd's pie.

Apart from that, not much.

The body's ready to transport, so
I'm heading back to the Lyell now.

You're not staying to
help with the washing-up, then?

I think I'll pass.

Nikki?

Has to be squeaky clean for his case
review in a few days, apparently.

Sure.
Thanks very much.

What's the name?
Um, Weston.

Scott Weston.

BREATHES SHAKILY

CHATTER

DOOR SLAMS SHUT

This is James Scott's cell.

Scott's been moved out.

The place is falling apart.

Um...

CAMERA BEEPS AND WHIRS

As quickly as we take them away,
they'll make a new one.

That's his brother.

DOOR SCRAPES

Stand up.

Move to the back of the room.

I'm just going to swab
the inside of your mouth.

And again.

I've told you before, I can't
let you in without an appointment.

I need to see
the governor right now.

You don't understand.

CAR ALARM BEEPS

BREATHES HEAVILY

GUNSHOT

They've said this building isn't
fit for purpose any more.

I know it's been
a difficult few days,

but we all
need to remain focused.

Transfers have all been allocated.

Inmates have all been
informed where they're heading.

Some of them are
moving further away from home

and they're not happy about it,

so let's be vigilant.

It's been like a
tinderbox in here as it is.

Which is why I'm expecting pushback.

Look, it's our last week.

Let's make it a good one.

Oh, listen...

You do an impossible job
and, together with your teams,

you do it brilliantly.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Hi. Detective Inspector Mason.

I'm looking for Dionne Selwyn.

I was told she was here.

Yes, please come in.
Thank you.

Jay Selwyn, black male, 28.

Given observations of the body
at the time

and the ambient temperature
of the fridge, I estimate

that he was dead for at
least an hour before he was found,

although it's difficult
to be precise.

Blunt force injuries are consistent
with the deceased being involved

in some kind of altercation.

Multiple scars, both forearms,
different ages.

Consistent with self-harm.

No offensive
injuries to the knuckles,

possibly suggesting that he
was attacked rather than in a fight.

Slight discoloration on the abdomen.

Could be bruising
developing postmortem.

I'm afraid there's no mistake.

I'm very sorry for your loss,
Mrs Selwyn.

How did Jay seem to you?

Was he in good spirits?

Until those guards
laid into him yesterday.

I only wanted to give my son a hug.
He's my son.

I should have held on to him.
I should have never let him go.

Mum, let's go home, yeah?

Did he take his own life?

Why do you ask that?

The DNA report
on Jay's cellmate has come back.

Scott Weston. I know that name.

You do.

He went on a killing spree
right here at the university.

That was him?!

Harry and I got caught up in it.

Oh, my God!

We hid with some of the students.

Heard him coming.

Heard the gunshots getting closer.

I had no idea.

No reason you should.

It's been ten years.

I haven't thought about
it for a long, long time.

Did he recognise you?

I hope so.

Are you OK to be working on this?

Yeah.

I'm all right. Honestly.

It just took
me by surprise, that's all.

I'm feeling a
bit weird anyway today.

I've agreed to
take over Thomas' lectures.

Oh, he'd be pleased.

I don't know.

Thomas was so good at all that,
wasn't he?

You'll be grand! You're a natural.

You're very good
at telling people what to do.

Me too.

Hey, what's your problem?
Come on, then!

HITTING AND GRUNTING
Come on!

Incident in the recreation yard.

What's your problem?
You are!

Go on, do one!

HE GROANS

This is Jay Selwyn's heart.

It's enlarged, which is unusual.

We might see that in cases of fatal
cardiac arrhythmia.

What might have caused that?

Well, it's difficult to say.

He didn't have
any known heart issues.

Bloke winds up dead in a fridge
surrounded by hundreds of murderers.

Doesn't scream natural causes,
does it?

Well, the exact cause of death is,
I'm afraid, inconclusive.

I've taken histology samples,

but I don't expect
anything more conclusive

to come back from that unless
the myocardium throws up something.

And what's that when it's at home?

The heart muscle. Oh.
It'll take a few days to come back.

So based on the circumstantial
evidence, the stress haemorrhages

in his stomach, the fact
that he wasn't wearing much clothing

and that he was found in a very cold
environment, I'd have to conclude

that the most likely cause of death
is hypothermia.

Um.

DOOR BUZZER

Will you excuse me for a moment?
Yeah, sure. Thanks.

How are you?
How have you been?

Not great.

Scott's having his case
reviewed by a commission next week.

He's trying
to appeal his conviction.

That's why I was at the prison,
to protest to the governor.

Scott's barely served ten years.

And now the prison's closing down.

There's a push to get him
moved to somewhere low security.

This is the first step in reducing
his sentence, isn't it?

Reviewing on what grounds?
They gave him a life order.

There's a whole online campaign now.

There's a psychologist
who works at the prison.

Dr Taylor Lawson.

Have you heard of him?

He's supporting Scott's case review.

It says it was an unsafe conviction.

He has an old scan of Scott's brain.

He said he suffered a
head injury when he was a child.

Is it true?
No!

Maybe...

I don't know any more.
That's not the point.

He's saying it would
be diminished responsibility.

He says he's got medical proof.

If he convinces this review board,
Scott's appeal will go ahead.

You know as well as I do,
if he got out, he'd kill again.

I saw the police.

What were you doing
there, was someone killed?

You know I can't tell you that.

Do you think Scott's behind it?

I will fight to my last
breath to keep him behind bars.

Even though he's your son?

It's the only thing I can do now

for all those
families that he destroyed.

But I can't do it alone.
It's not our responsibility.

Yes, it is. You were the
key witness at the first trial.

Maybe you could
speak to the commission.

It doesn't work like that.

We have to speak up
for those who can't speak up

for themselves any more.

My God, what have they done to you?

Jay is dead.

I'm so sorry.

I'm on my own now.

What am I going to do?

You have to tell someone...
I can't.

I can't.

It's going to mess everything up.

I've got to get out of here,
Paisley.

You will, I promise.

The appeal application

gets heard next week.

Have you spoke to Mum again?

Not yet.

HE SIGHS
Paisley...

You don't need her, you've got me.

She hasn't even been
to see you in ten years.

I do need her, though, don't I?

Eh?

I do.

She just needs to see the truth.

See the evidence for herself.

Yeah?

You've got to make her see.

Argh!

Sorry.

I'm not feeling good at all, you
know. I want to go back to me cell.

Don't! Wait, wait.

It's just a few more days.

No, I can't take a few more days,
Paisley.

I can't.

Just try and
concentrate on the appeal.

What chance have
I got if I can't even persuade

my own mum to
give me the time of day?

How is that going to look
to everyone?

Good afternoon.

Thanks for coming to this lecture.

Oh, hello again.

What are you doing here?

I work with the prisoners and their
families when I'm required.

I'm here to lend some support
to some of Jay's closest friends.

Some of them have
taken the loss pretty hard.

Oh, yeah?

Like who?

Now, the words "autopsy",

from the Greek,
meaning to see for oneself,

and "postmortem",
from the Latin, meaning after death,

are interchangeable
and you will hear both.

So the first incision
is made from behind one ear

and comes down the neck,

round the front of the collarbone
to the centre.

You will then do the
same to the other side.

And the final incision to the Y
will go straight down the middle

to the pelvis,

and this gives us
access to the internal organs.

So, Billy, you found
Jay's body, didn't you?

I hear Jay could be a bit of
a troublemaker.

Jay was all right.

Once they give you
a bad rep in here, that's it.

Can't change no-one's mind.

Hm. And I suppose they
labelled you

especially
when you're so near parole.

We weren't as
close as we used to be.

Probably a wise move.

So, what do you
think happened to Jay?

Got himself in debt.

Who with?

Don't know, man.

It's OK, Billy.

Withholding evidence
in an official investigation,

that's definitely
not good for your parole.

All I know is Lewis was
looking for Jay the day he died.

He'd already had a kicking
and Jay knew if he didn't cough up,

Lewis would send someone
to finish the job.

As clearly illustrated here,

you will see that the skin

can be fully retracted
over the skull

without having to cut the face.

Excuse me.

Yes?

When do you stop, uh, you know,

getting affected by what you see?

Well, I wouldn't be a very
good pathologist if I was, would I?

Well, no, it's a good question,
actually. Um...

I guess when I get
into my car at the end of the day,

I try to leave my work behind

and to compartmentalise it
from my home life.

So you think Lewis caught
up with Jay?

He lends money
and then hikes up the interest.

I hear more about
him than any other inmate.

Jay only had a week left here too.

I bet he couldn't wait to be
transferred.

You must be joking.

What do you mean?

Jay just found out they
were moving him with Scott.

He was gutted.

I thought they were big mates.

They shared a cell,
but Jay can't stand Scott.

Wanted to get as far
away from him as possible.

Hello, Lewis.

Detective Inspector Mason.

I've got a
few questions to ask you.

Yeah? Step inside, then, mate.

Come on, come on.
Come in!

You were heard making death threats
to Jay Selwyn the day he died.

HE SCOFFS

He owed me.

He borrowed from me.

You borrow from me,
you need to pay up.

Did you kill him?

Open this door, Tony.

Come on, the man wants to talk.

Did you kill him?

Look, yeah?

I would've if I'd have got
my hands on him,

but slippery little Jay got away,
didn't he?

Hm.

So who did kill him, then?

Come on, Lewis. Nothing happens
in here without your permission.

Let's just say, yeah,
I've got a friend in the kitchen

I didn't know I had.

LEWIS LAUGHS

Come on, mate, come in!
Come on, come on.

I don't bite! Come on!

Come in, mate.

Come on, we'll have a little cup
of tea, yeah?

Dr Alexander, that was great.

Thank you.
Oh, my pleasure.

I'm Ollie.

I read your paper on asphyxiation.

Sorry I'm late.

How'd it go?

It was fine.

I enjoyed it.

Right, now, we catch him here

and there during recreation time.

And then he literally disappears

during lunch hour.

No footage of him anywhere and he
doesn't appear in any roll calls.

And then we pick him up again

on a visiting room camera
early afternoon.

Using quite a lot of force. Mm.

That's what Jay's mum said.

And...

..that's where we lose him.

Could they have caused
Jay's injuries?

There were no signs
of blood spatter in Jay's cell.

No indication an assault
took place there at all, in fact.

Yeah, and look.

Here they are a few
seconds later, minus Jay.

Who's that girl with Scott Weston?

Uh, yeah, according to the
prison officers, her name

is Paisley Robinson.

She befriended Scott
after he was convicted.

One of those.

Now, this is interesting.

The prison failed
its last inspection. Ah.

Yeah, the report says
the outcome for released prisoners

was very poor,
reoffending was high,

and the governor's
taken some flak.

So that's the real reason
for it closing down,

I think, failure to rehabilitate,
and their death rate

Do you think prison staff

might have had something
to do with Jay's death?

Well, keeping an open mind.

Lots of people come and go,

so plenty of other
avenues to explore.

Jay's cellmate, for one,
Scott Weston.

He's just moved up my list.

He's a suspect?

Well, apparently him and Jay

weren't as cosy as we thought.

But this doesn't really fit
with Weston's MO, does it?

It does.

Scott Weston started his
killing spree at the university

by murdering his friend and making
it look like suicide. Mm-hm.

Weston was jumped in the yard today.

Given a right going-over.

Same perp who attacked Jay?

Well, that's always possible.

Either way, we should get pictures
of Weston's injuries for comparison.

Sure.

Would a forensic medical
examiner not be better?

No. I'd like to do
it, for continuity,

especially if Scott Weston
is a person of interest.

Got to run.

Who did this?

We've spoken to the police.
Maybe they could relocate you.

It'll pass. Always does.

It only takes one person to snap
my picture at the supermarket

and it's all over the internet -

Guess it's the appeal.

Seeing his face in the papers again

wakes up everyone's bad feeling.

The worst ones are the ones
who are in love with him.

They think that it's all my fault,
that I was a bad mother.

Maybe they're right. It sounds like
defamation of character to me,

that that psychologist
is trying to put it all on you.

Don't you worry about me.

Why are you so sure that Scott
had something to do

with the prison death?

Got away with it last time.

What do you mean?

Ronan Flynn - another one of
Scott's previous cellmates.

The coroner recorded
an open verdict.

HISSING

SHE GASPS

Hi there, you've reached
Jack Hodgson.

If you leave a message,
I'll get back to you.

LONG BEEP

Anything new?

I examined Jay's underwear.
I found semen.

It isn't his own.

Could it be assault?
Might be linked to his death.

We can't rule it out,

but there were no indications of
sexual assault on the body.

Could've been consensual. Or
from someone who coerced him

into it being consensual.

Well, whoever that person is,
we need to speak to them.

Run the DNA through the system.
We have.

Who was it? No match.

Are you sure?

A prison full of convicted criminals
and no DNA?

Yep, ran it twice.

Wasn't an inmate.

GATE CLANGS

We're around the inmates
all the time.

Our DNA is going to be all over
them - of course it is.

A union rep's going to call me back.
You'll have to wait.

Is that really necessary?

And if they all go out on strike,

what am I going to do, then?

Jay had a significant amount
of DNA on his clothes.

It isn't a match for any inmates.

So we just want to identify
who it belongs to.

Fine. Do me.

We've been told to wait
for the union rep.

If we don't do as they ask,

they won't provide cover for us.

I've got nothing to hide.

Fine, I'll do it.

Well, you'll understand
why I have to decline.

All right?

Detective Inspector Mason wants us
to examine your injuries.

Sit on the bed, please.

You ain't changed.

Put your hands out in front
of you, palms up.

And turn them over.

That looks recent.

And leave them there, please.

Tried to say I'm sorry.

CAMERA BEEPS AND CLICKS

Head to the left.

And to the right.

Remove your top.

Skin a bunny rabbit, eh?

That's what my mum
used to always say.

CAMERA BEEPS AND CLICKS

Skin a bunny rabbit.

This is Lewis's usual corner.

Lewis has been a busy boy.

If someone gave Jay a going-over,
it'll be Lewis.

Jay owed him money.

There's no way
all this came from one person.

I imagine a few unfortunate souls
have left deposits on these walls.

I'll have to take multiple samples.

There is a nice, clear fingerprint
in the blood.

If this is Lewis's print,

it would give us potential motive
and evidence.

Does Scott Weston have a reputation
for being violent in here?

No. Never had a moment's
trouble with him in all these years.

Yeah, I'm sure.

Men like Scott spend most of their
time pretending they don't exist.

Blokes who commit crimes
like his don't do well inside.

That's why Jay was so good for him.

Uh, excuse me.

I'm looking for Detective
Inspector Mason.

I'm Dr Lawson.

You're the one advocating
for Scott Weston's appeal.

Scott sustained an injury
to the frontal cortex, aged six,

leading to long-term
neurocognitive, behavioural

and psychiatric disturbance.

Please, take a seat.

Now, this created deficits
in his emotional regulation

with...tragic consequences.

Are you suggesting he somehow
wasn't responsible for his actions?

violence towards him.

I take it you've spoken to Pamela
Weston about these allegations.

I have the brain scans, and his NHS
records show that he was admitted

for a traumatic brain injury at six
years old, and he was unconscious

for more than 30 minutes.

That would categorise
the brain injury as "severe".

It's my belief that the damage,
very sadly,

made it impossible for him to
suppress the impulse to kill.
LOUD RATTLING

Excuse me.

RATTLING STOPS

Sorry, this place
should be condemned.

If Weston can't control
his impulses, surely that's

more reason to keep him locked up.

Well, now I've managed to identify
Scott's condition,

following his appeal,

he'll be able to receive
the right treatment

and the most effective
kind of rehabilitation.

If victims of these traumatic
brain injuries

experience problems with impulse
control and aggression,

then why is Scott so calm?

Well...

I understand it's hard for us
to accept, given the horrendous

nature of his crimes. I mean,
that is true for me as well.

But Scott is a victim
in all of this, too.

If he'd been on the right treatment,

those crimes would never
have been committed.

So...

..who are the guilty ones, really?

I've got something to show you!

What's this?

I was just looking at the samples
we took from the exercise yard.

There were multiple blood sources,
as we thought, but the fingerprint

we lifted was set in Jay's blood.

So, likelihood is
that was the location Jay

was assaulted, and by Lewis.

Did you find a match for the print?
Yep.

I'm going to speak to DI Mason
about it later.

I presume it was Lewis's
fingerprint in the blood?

Ah, no, actually, it wasn't.

Er...

It's not enough to put him
in the frame for murder.

You can't date the print

and Jay died of hypothermia, right?

Yes.

But it might just be enough
to stop his appeal.

HE EXHALES SOFTLY

CAR HORN TOOTS

Thank you so much
for bringing this down.

Mrs Selwyn was keen for him to be
buried in his suit.

It's the least I could do, really.

I liked Jay.

He had potential.

I'll make sure it gets passed on.

Ah! Just the man.
You got a few minutes?

Oh, I really should be, er...

Sorry, it's the...the diabetes.
If I don't eat, I...

Oh!

Would you like to sit down?

Er, yeah.

Better?

Ah.

My wife's got me on this paleo diet.

I'm starving all the bloody time!

HE CHUCKLES

What was it you wanted to ask me?

Oh, yes.

Jay was assaulted shortly
before he was found dead

in the fridge.

And the evidence suggests
it was Scott Weston.

We found Scott's fingerprint
in Jay's blood.

Scott also has injuries
consistent with an assault,

which he tried to cover up.

But Scott was so keen for them
to be moved together.

Scott requested to stay with Jay?

I thought that was your request.

Well, it made sense for them
to be kept together.

Scott was concerned
where Jay might end up

because of the terms
of his sentence.

And Jay was on an indefinite
prison sentence, is that right?

No, the government
has done away with them now,

but there remains an unlucky
few still serving them.

If you think sentences
are too lenient, take

it up with a court, not me.

I believe what I do
makes a difference.

Otherwise, it's not justice.

It's revenge.

and Jay was a wreck.

He was convinced that Lewis
was sending someone to kill him.

They'd already given him
a going-over.

Thought he was going to top himself.

Sounds like you got
to know Jay quite well.

Grew up on the same estate.

Oh. Hmph!

Didn't think that was allowed.

I mean, for you to work with people
you knew on the outside.

Yeah, I should have talked
to the governor

when I realised Jay was there.

He was so happy to see me.

What was the harm?

If you knew Jay so well
and you were worried about him,

why didn't you alert
one of the guards?

I was going to.

I was.

Then the fight broke out
and they were right there.

Jay started having
a panic attack.

Had to do something,
so I hid him. In the fridge?

How long was Jay there?

I don't remember anything else.

The prisoners broke into
the kitchen wing and attacked you.

Yeah, and killed Jay.

N-no.

No, they didn't find him.

In all likelihood,

Jay died of hypothermia, Leon.

Oh, no.

I...

I never meant to hurt him.

I swear.

He was family to me.

I'm sorry.

Oh, hi. Hello.

Henry? I was just starting my shift
so I thought I'd pop in.

Thanks. I just need to do my final
checks and sign the paperwork.

I suspect the coroner
will release the body soon

so if you could get him
ready, that'd be great.

Someone stamped on him.

HE CHUCKLES

Hypothermia masks the body's
natural responses to violence,

What are you saying?

Well, the assault could have played
a much more significant part

in Jay's death
than we first thought.

Jay was assaulted in the exercise
yard and then left in the fridge

to die, AND we can place
Scott Weston at the assault

with his bloody fingerprint. Can we?

That's not even enough to pin the
assault on him, let alone murder.

There's something here.

Look - this is the boot impression
on Jay's body,

an interruption
in the original pattern.

Please get Scott Weston's footwear.

If we have something else
to link him to Jay's assault

RINGING TONE

You've reached Pamela Weston.
Please leave a message.

Damn! They must have
started already.

Where are you going?
To the case review.

Is that a good idea?

Once they see what Scott Weston has
really been up to,

then his appeal
will hold no water whatsoever.

At least wait until I've collected
the evidence, please!

Let's take some time
to review this properly, yeah?

Well, it's either
his footwear or it isn't.

Just call me as soon as you know.

We are here today to consider
if it's in the public's interest

to allow an appeal application
to commence

for one Scott David Weston.

Dr Lawson, if you could begin.

It is my privilege to speak
on behalf of this young man.

The potential new evidence
I will discuss today

will demonstrate that Scott Weston
should have been tried

under the banner
of diminished responsibility.

Has it started yet?
It's just about to.

Is Pamela Weston here?
What is it?

I have proof that implicates
Scott in Jay's death - look.

In light of new evidence,
the decision has been made

to postpone today's case review.

On what grounds? For how long?

Well, just until the new evidence
can be fully examined.

What did you say to him? Eh?

WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HIM?!

YEAH, YOU'RE A LIAR!

LIAR! I HAVE DONE
NOTHING! YOU'RE A LIAR!

LIAR!

Liar!

I have done nothing!

Nothing wrong!

Liar!

"Having a great time,

"don't wish you were here,
not missing you at all."

Don't tell me. Clarissa?

MESSAGE ALERT CHIMES

No!

No, that can't be right.
What is it?

It's Jay's immunology results.

His mast cell tryptase
is off the chart.

That means the laryngeal
mucosal oedema wasn't caused

by the hypothermia or the assault.
Then what? It was a result

of angioedema, which is a response
to an acute anaphylactic reaction.

He wasn't having a panic attack.

No, he was having
an allergic reaction. Shit!

Anything in his notes
to say he had allergies?

No, nothing.

So he didn't die from the assault.

Scott didn't kill him.

Well, no, not necessarily. Nikki.
They were cellmates.

They knew everything about
