What are we doing here?

It's a surprise, come
on. Oh, all right. Hiya.

So, what do you think? Great.

Good, there they are. You
haven't dragged them here as well?

Of course, it is your birthday.

Hello! How nice. Thanks
for coming all this way.

It's worth it just to see
these two in a comedy club!

Having a laugh at these prices, do
you know how much this round cost?

Happy birthday, Gerry. Suppose
you want one now you're here.

Yeah, I'll have a beer.
Emily? Mm, vodka. Large!

Oh, look who's on tonight. I
haven't heard of him for years!

Ray Harris, he used to be really
big. Do you remember him? Vaguely.

Was he any good?
Not my cup of tea.

Oh, no, he's all right. A proper
old fashioned comic, you know.

You'll love him.
Well, I will, anyway.

What's the difference between
a battery and a woman?

A battery's got a positive side.

I thought dinosaurs
were extinct.

So I said to this woman last night, "would you
have sex with me for a quid?" She said, "no."

I know, I was shocked. I said, "would
you have sex with me for a million quid?"

She said, "oh, all right then."

I said, "hang on, would you
have sex with me for five quid?"

She went mad, she was outraged.

She said, "what kind of a
woman do you think I am?"

I said, "listen love, we've established
what type of woman you are.

"I'm just haggling
about the price."

Is he for real?

Oh, cheer up, it's only a joke.

Sexist!

Get off the stage.
You're rubbish.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, have you met my fan club?

Sexist, racist. I
get this all the time.

I'm not racist. Do you know I
live next door to a Pakistani chap.

He come up to me the other day, he said,
"ray, why am I a better man than you?"

I said, "go on then, farouk, why
are you a better man than me?"

He said, "well, I don't
live next door to a paki."

Racist git! Get off the stage!

They boo

oh, yeah, come on.

Hey, how many feminists does
it take to change a light bulb?

None, because you
don't change nothing.

Very original, get off!

Remember Sarah Jones, ray?

Is this part of it?

Off! Off! Off!

Off! Off! Off!

Hey, look at that face.
Pretty as a picture.

I know I'd simply
like to hang it.

Come on, ladies. Hey,
what are you doing?

Oh, I'm not having that.

Oi!

I was just starting to
enjoy myself. Here we go.

Now I know why
animals eat their young.

I paid good money
to go in there.

Police, pack it in. I said, pack
it in or we'll Nick the lot of you!

Right, thanks, we'll
deal with it now.

What is this, some sort of police outing? I'm
not surprised you're sticking up for Harris.

He used to do charity benefits for
your lot, didn't he? I bet you love him.

Not me. I was losing the
will to live until you started.

I was enjoying it. Gerry. Come on, he's a comedian,
for gawd's sake. Why do you take him so seriously?

Because he's a racist,
sexist, homophobic pig.

Oh, I see. But it's all right for some bloke with
hooks for hands to tell people to blow themselves up.

No, but ray Harris tells a joke and
it's "oh, dear, who's he gonna offend?"

You need to let me back...

The met run courses for people like
you, remind me to put your name down.

Who's Sarah Jones?

She was my aunt. She led a big
campaign against ray Harris in the '80s.

She hated that bile
he comes out with.

Another one of the old PC brigade.
Gerry, birthday or no birthday, shut it.

You wouldn't have liked her. She wasn't
the sort to stay in and do your ironing.

Yeah, I got the picture.

Have you? What's she like then?

No-one's seen her for
25 years. How come?

She disappeared.

I think you'd have liked her.

She knew how to handle men too.

Ladies, handbags.

Watcha. Morning. Hi.

Sarah Jones?

Maybe. She went
missing, that's all!

She wasn't the only
one to disappear,

her boyfriend did
too, a Daniel Cobb.

They were last seen at their
squat in bow in April 1984.

A midnight flit? That's what the
original investigation team thought.

Or this Daniel character bumped
her off and went to ground? Coffee?

Oh, yeah. Morning. Hiya.
Morning. Coffee? Yes, please.

Well, missing persons have
never been able to trace them.

Sarah Jones?

Listen, it's not that hard to go
missing if you put your mind to it.

Yeah, but Sarah was
an activist, a campaigner!

She's not gonna just
disappear overnight, is she?

Both her parents and Daniel's made statements
saying it was totally out of character.

Plus there's no mention in the report
of a feud between her and Harris.

Who was the investigating
officer? Er, frank paterson.

Urgh. Friend of yours?

I worked with him
for a while. And?

Nah, I didn't really
know him that well.

Incisive profiling, thank
you, Gerry. Frank paterson.

Joined '79. Vice
squad '85 to '87.

Then he was fraud squad.

Later made dcs in the
organised crime group.

He's still serving, but due
for retirement later this year.

I knew she'd get a bee
in her bonnet about this.

Independent women taking on
a male-dominated establishment.

Was it something we said?

I've got a visitor.

Detective superintendent?

Hello, Jo. What are you doing
here? I thought this could be helpful.

Morning, Sandra. Morning, sir.

It belonged to Sarah.

My grandparents found it at the
squat when they went looking for her.

It may not be any use,
it's just photos and scraps.

Ok, I'll take a look.

You are still
interested in helping?

It's not as easy as that,
Jo. But I thought last night...

Maybe I could be included
in this particular loop, Sandra?

If Sarah and Daniel
were just moving on,

why didn't they
take their clothes?

Well, maybe the real owners of the house
came back and they legged it in a hurry?

I looked into that. It had
been derelict for years.

And anyway that doesn't explain why our family
never heard from her again. What about Daniel?

He never contacted his
family after that either.

Sandra?

Excuse me.

Do you know how many potential
cases I have piling up on my desk?

I said I'd take a look at the file. I didn't know
she was going to turn up here. And now that she has?

I'd like to pursue it.

Yes, well luckily for you i'm up to my eyes
preparing for a meeting with the smpd on Thursday.

I should be clear by
Thursday afternoon.

I suggest you see what you
can come up with by then.

Yeah? Can I help ya?

Yeah, we're with the police,
unsolved crime and open case squad.

Don't tell me, you caught
that Irish serial killer at last, eh?

Who? You know, the one that
stabbed 20 packets of cornflakes!

No, we're here
about Sarah Jones.

Quite a campaign she had
going against Harris, eh?

The times, February 3rd, 1984.

Two months before
she disappeared.

The anti fascist... Does
that mean anything to you?

The anti fascist league? Anti Nazi
league I've heard of. Not that one.

Let's see what
we've got on them.

I'm hardly gonna
forget Sarah Jones.

Cow spent a year
trying to finish me.

You know it played
havoc with my handicap.

Huh, but what did
she do to you, exactly?

For starters she used to
heckle during my shows.

Then it got that way that every time I opened me
mouth she'd jump down it. Yeah, so what did you do?

I can handle a room, but in the end I just had
to bar her. She stopped turning up after that.

You do know she and her
boyfriend disappeared? Really?

All I know is she
stopped causing me grief.

So what effect did her
campaign against you have?

She cost me a lot
of wedge in the end.

I was just about to get me
own Saturday night game show.

You can't get bigger than that.

But she got wind of it and
started a campaign in the papers.

And you never heard from her since? Nah. She's
probably off somewhere now, saving a bloody whale.

She done me a favour in the end, though. I mean,
I've got my own club in Spain. Sell out every week.

So why do you think
she picked on you?

I mean, there were other racist and
sexist comedians around at the time.

You forgot "homophobic".

I used to love it the way I
got blamed for everything.

I used to know some of your lot.

Racism, sexism, homophobia?

You boys wrote the book on that!

Yeah, but we tried to change.

People love me because I'm not
afraid to be a bit blue, a bit edgy.

But what I do is an act.

I tell jokes. When people stop
laughing, I'll stop telling 'em.

I'm not a racialist
and I love women.

That's what Sarah
Jones never understood.

Have a good game.

The anti fascist league were
b12. Thought that was a vitamin.

Category b12, ie they were fairly insignificant. But
guess where they were based? Not that squat? Exactly.

And run by a Grant lindon.

Couple of counts of breach of the peace at some
demos, but nothing since the '80s. That's him.

Oh, Brian, I asked
you to clear away!

Aah.

We used to look a bit
like that when we first met.

He's got more hair
than you ever had.

Well, that's an unfortunate
tattoo to walk around with.

Yeah, that's what we
thought. It's odd, isn't it?

I know what that is, it's not
just odd, it's downright creepy.

Hitler?! Guten
morgen, mein fuhrer.

The 20th April 1889, 20th of
the 4th, was Hitler's birthday.

But why would Sarah and
Daniel have Nazi tattoos?

Yeah, well at first I thought
it was a coincidence,

but the 24s was also the name of a
far right group in bow in the early '80s.

So maybe little miss right on
was actually little miss right wing.

Got anything else on these 24s?

No, not much. Er, the kingpin
was a fella called Peter munroe.

I sent a Peter munroe down in '78.
Do you think it could be the same one?

It could be, he was a nasty little
thug with delusions of grandeur.

Fancy renewing your
acquaintance, Jack?

I can't wait(!)

Mr halford. Pete. Who's this?

Detective superintendent
Sandra Pullman.

Oh, not top dog any
more, Jack? Mind you...

..She's got better legs than you.
We'd like to talk to you about the 24s.

Membership closed a while ago.

So what was it with the
24s? The usual paki bashing?

Oh, we were a lot more
ambitious than that.

We were a political party.

Hoped to get a few skinheads
elected to parliament, did you?

We were the frontline against the tide that was
turning this country into a third world refugee camp.

That seems to be it,
so thanks for your time.

Er, excuse us. Er, Grant lindon?

Yes. We're from the police.

We'd like to talk to you
about the anti fascist league.

Well, erm, why don't
we go to my office?

You're about 25 years
too late for the afl.

How well do you remember
Sarah Jones and Daniel Cobb?

I barely knew them
really. Please, take a seat.

Thank you.

Grant, it's nearly 10.30. I
just need a few minutes.

You'll have to apologise and
start without me, love. Sorry.

Huh, you call anyone "love"
at our place, you get a slap.

Suzy's my partner.
Yeah, the boss's daughter.

Ah, that's right, you married
into the business, didn't you?

Suzy's my business partner
and my wife, that's right.

You say you barely knew Sarah and Daniel,
but you remembered their names straight away?

Look, to be honest, I'd be quite
glad to get out of that meeting.

Why don't we go outside?

Not exactly your
average bovver boys.

Well, you don't have to be a
skinhead to be proud of your country.

But you recognise them,
though? We had a lot of members.

What's the significance
of the tattoo?

Rites of passage, was
it? I bet you've got one.

Yeah. They hung
around with us for a bit.

Don't remember what
happened to them, though.

What happened to them?

I mean, they weren't regulars. They went to all the
trouble of getting tattoos, but they weren't serious?

Sorry.

I can't help you any further.

I always say, if you
can remember your 20s

you weren't trying hard enough.

Besides, they weren't
at the squat long.

Three, four months tops.

How did you meet them?

At a party.

They had nowhere to stay and I
was happy for them to crash at mine.

We were pretty like
minded, especially Sarah.

She really wanted to get involved with the afl. Who
else was at the squat at that time? It was just us.

Really? Then who's this?

I remember the hair,
but as for the name...

Look, you must, er, give me
your number before you go.

If anything comes
back to me, I'll call you.

I just don't get it. Sarah and Daniel
were left wing activists, not racist thugs.

Then what were they doing
hanging around the 24s?

Maybe they were undercover?
The 24s?! A bit dangerous.

Perhaps after Harris
she wanted to up the ante.

You know what, in the morning,
i'm gonna visit an old snout of mine.

Anyone need a haircut?

Yeah, you!

Give me one minute.

Have a seat.

We don't want a seat,
Polish, we want you!

Gerry standing?

What the bloody
'ell you doing 'ere?

Brian Lane, the legend
that is Polish George.

I heard you work
unsolved crimes now.

I hope you don't want nothing from me
cos, er, I'm not in that game any more.

Come on, Polish, there's no
retirement option in your line.

What do you remember
about the 24s?

Bad lot. I didn't know 'em.

You want a haircut,
don't you? No.

Yes, you do. Sit down. Now give
him a trim and me something useful.

Right, Deirdre.
Thank you very much.

Deirdre?

Oh, an old friend.
Worked in admin.

Jo said something the other night about
Harris doing charity shows for the job.

Guess who always
insisted they book him?

Gerry's old mate,
dcs frank paterson.

The chief investigating officer on
Sarah and Daniel's disappearance?

The very same.

Yeah?

Detective superintendent
Pullman from the clean up squad.

We prefer ucos. Course
you do, sweetheart.

No Gerry?

How is the old sod?

I doubt he's changed much
since you knew him, sir,

but he did learn the hard way
not to call me "sweetheart".

We go way back, me and
him. I take it this isn't a social?

No. We're looking into a
case of two missing students,

Sarah Jones and a Daniel Cobb.

Yeah. Ran off together, right?

Why did you think that?
Seemed the most likely conclusion.

Parents never believed it.
They didn't want to believe it.

And unless you've turned up a
couple of stiffs, I'll stand by my report.

Did you know anything about the bad blood between
Sarah Jones and a comedian called ray Harris?

How does he fit into all this?
Something we're looking into.

You remind me of your father.
I liked him, he was a good man.

Did you know me and
him worked together?

No, no, I didn't,
sir. Frank, please.

I've kept an eye on you
over the years, Sandra.

Your old man would
be very proud of you.

Erm... ray Harris.

Apparently you knew him. Well?

Met him at a couple
of fundraisers, that's all.

So, you weren't friends? No, but
he was always good for a laugh.

Do you think there
could be a connection?

Between Harris and
the disappearances?

No more than I think
rod hull and emu shot jfk.

They weren't the sort of
people I wanted to know, ok?

But you knew of them, which
means you know more than us.

They used to drink at a
pub. The son of albion.

You ever go there? You know me, I
don't go putting my head in a lion's mouth.

Not unless there's a
tenner down its throat.

Do you recall who was
a member of the 24s?

Low lifes. Mostly
banged up or dead now.

Apart from hanson, of course.

What, Ricky hanson?

Yeah, that's why I don't like to talk about
'em. I don't want nothing to do with him!

And hanson was in the 24s?

He used to hang out
with them at the albion.

He was just a
young wannabe then.

We'd better go. Hang on,
he's only done the one side.

Come on!

I'll be back for the other half.

Wait till Jack hears about this.

Hey, hey, Gerry. Now
look, hang on, just think.

We don't know that this has actually
got anything to do with hanson.

It's a lead! It might be, but is it
enough to get Jack's hopes up again?

We thought we'd nailed hanson last
year and look what that did to Jack.

I mean, how many more
disappointments can he take?

So, what do we do then?

Oh, I don't know. I tell you one thing though,
neither strickland nor Sandra will let us near hanson.

Yeah, well I'm not letting go of this.
Sandra's gotta see strickland tomorrow, right?

Now if we haven't got
anything to give him,

they're gonna pull us
off the case anyway.

Hiya. My name's
Gerry, this is Brian.

We're researching a book
about old London pubs.

Now didn't this used
to be the son of albion?

Yeah, till quite recently actually, but it
was pretty rough so the brewery shut it down.

We rebranded as
the sun last month.

So, what happened
to the old regulars?

Moved on, I guess. Well, no point in
wasting a trip. What bitter have you got?

We don't, I'm afraid,
just lagers and light ales.

But you might like to try some
of this Swedish BlackBerry beer?

Oh, I don't think so, thanks. No,
try some, it might surprise you.

I'm a felspars man, myself. Yeah, we had a trip
round the old brewery last year. Magnificent.

Hmm. That's not
bad as it happens.

Tell you what, if you're writing a book,
you're welcome to check out the cellar.

It's full of stuff
from the old pub.

That'll be brilliant. Thanks very
much. Come on round. Thank you.

Well, there you
go. All yours, gents.

Oh, thanks very much.

That's very kind of you, thanks.

Do you remember those?

Right, what have
we got here, then?

Gerry... look.

Ray Harris. Yeah,
and look who it isn't.

Detective chief
superintendent frank paterson.

Was ray Harris in the 24s?

I already told you, I
don't want to be involved.

It's too late.

Harris was mates with Ricky hanson, but I don't
know if he had anything to do with the 24s.

And paterson? He was
friends with ray Harris.

And how were
paterson and hanson?

No love there. Frank spent his
whole career trying to Nick hanson.

All right, then.

Keep thinking.

And while you're at it, you can
even up the other side of my head.

This is suicide.
It's hanson's house.

Yeah, the man who deliberately
mowed down Jack's missus.

Hanson thinks he's
untouchable, that's his weakness.

And what's ours? Jumping in
every time we hear his name?

His name was mentioned in an investigation,
it's perfectly legit to have a look.

Gerry, you can't rearrange a
Jigsaw just to make a piece fit.

I'm not, but it was you who said we can't
involve Jack unless we find something concrete.

And you think we're
going to find it here?

You don't have to come with me.

In a lifetime of bad ideas, this
has got to be your very worst!

We shouldn't be here.

You think being in his garden is as
bad as it's gonna get? Let's have a drink.

Listen, if we go in there now,
we're the ones breaking the law.

The days of swanning into villain's
houses and fronting it out are over, Gerry.

Yeah, you're right.

I feel 30 years
younger. Come on!

Lovely. Some faces in here.

Gerry, Gerry, look, look, straight
ahead. Fella in the dark suit.

They're all in dark suits. Yeah, only
one of them's on our white board though.

Look, him, straight ahead
there, talking to the blonde.

You're right, yeah. Pete Monroe.

So him and hanson are still
mates, eh? Cheers, sweetheart.

Could I get a mineral
water for my friend?

Thank you.

Well, well, dumb and dumber.

And I thought trespassing
was a criminal offence.

Hi, Sandra. Jo. How
are you getting on?

Jo, what are you hoping
to get out of all of this?

The truth. We can't always give
people the answers they want, you know.

Yeah, I know that. Is
there anything I can do?

Well, we've got this polaroid
of a girl with red hair, I don't...

What, Janet Spencer?

You know who she is? Well,
yeah, of course. Don't you?

No, I don't. She works for fight
to unite, the human rights charity.

She's their senior spokesperson. I
went to see her once about Sarah.

She was really nice, but
she said she couldn't help.

Janet Spencer?

Could you talk to her
please, I'm holding for bono.

If he agrees to come to my
Sudanese refugee charity lunch,

I won't have to trawl through the
usual celebrity big brother crowd.

I see you and rain man
have made yourself at home.

Hope you brought your trunks. What's the
celebration in aid of? It's me boy's birthday.

Luke?

Where's dear old Jack? What
do you know about the 24s?

Never heard of them.

Maybe we should ask Pete munroe?

Yeah. Or ray Harris.

You collecting autographs now?

No, evidence.

That'll make a change. When I saw you in
court the only thing that stood up was me,

right before I walked
out the front door.

Do you recognise these two? No.

Have another look, properly.

Never seen 'em before.

I must say, I admire ucos's
commitment to care in the community,

but they really shouldn't let
you two out without supervision.

It can't last forever, Ricky.

What? All this. The
house, the lifestyle.

Don't tell me you're jealous?

Of you?! Hardly.

You tried to take it away
before and look what happened?

You come in here with photos of some kids, asking
questions about a comedian everyone's forgotten.

Get out!

We'll be back.

I don't doubt it.

It's like the return of the
living dead with you lot.

Give my love to Sandra.

Oh, no, of course, she won't
know you're here, will she?

His guard came up when he saw
the photos. He knows something.

Luke?

What you doing here? I could
ask you the same question.

Well, it's my party.

Have you forgotten what that
apology for a father did to you?

That's all squared now.

Squared?! He sent you down for
eight years and nicked your girlfriend!

Now I know blood is
thicker than water, but...

Well, we don't all live in the past, eh? I
thought you were bigger than this, son.

Are you deaf as well as stupid?

Enjoy your birthday(!)

He is. We're all one big
happy family now, ain't we?

Why did the afl shut down?

It more ran out of steam.

Was that after Daniel
and Sarah disappeared?

Sarah was amazing.

I learnt a lot from
her. She was...

Inspirational.

Do the 24s mean anything to you?

Daniel and Sarah
infiltrated them, didn't they?

Yes. Why?

Like I said, I was just
the office dogsbody.

I didn't have much more to do
than hand out tea and leaflets.

Why did they do it? Grant lindon
was in charge, it was his idea.

Are you still in contact with him? No.
He got married soon after the afl broke up.

I lost track of him after that.

Her name is Janet Spencer.

We heard you had a little
difficulty remembering.

She's the... what was it?
Communications and logistics co-ordinator.

Yeah, that's it,
at fight 2 unite.

Which essentially means she sits in a nice,
comfy office whilst others do the hard work.

That's hardly fair. She
needs a support network.

So you do know who she is?

It was the same
at the afl, wasn't it?

You and logistics co-ordinator
Janet made up the support network

while Sarah and Daniel
did your dirty work for you.

Please, don't waste our time any more. We know they
went under cover for you. What we don't know is why.

Sarah had heard the 24s were
more than just another racist gang.

Meaning what? She wouldn't
say until she'd got evidence,

but I got the idea that they
had something to do with drugs.

So you encouraged them to
join up? I could hardly go myself.

You have noticed I'm black?

Well, what happened to them?

The 24s leader, Pete munroe,
wanted to get onto the local council.

Sarah wanted to stop him. She
said she had something on them.

I thought everything
was going fine until...

One night a bunch of
skinheads broke into the squat

and beat the crap out of me.

They told me not to
go after Sarah or Dan.

And you just walked away?

I was lucky I could walk
after that. Did you report this?

I didn't exactly have much
faith in the police back then.

Didn't it occur to you that if
you had spoken to the police,

they might have investigated
their disappearance properly?

I didn't think I had to. Your
lot knew about them already.

Sarah had a contact she was
passing information to. Who?

She never said.

Hope these aren't
more lies, Grant.

Ah! The travelling
wilburys return.

Where the hell
have you two been?

Chasing our tails.
What does that mean?

We were following up a lead, but it got us
nowhere. You only wasted half a day, well done(!)

No, we did find something.

Look, this is a pub, formerly
known as the son of albion,

the 24s' drinking den.

See anyone there you
know? Yeah, Harris.

And, but I'll forgive you for not
recognising him... frank paterson.

Yeah? I met him today.

Coppers often used to go in
villain's pubs in those days.

Part of the job
description, wasn't it?

Yeah, but... Gerry, what are you
holding back about frank paterson?

No. That's between me
and frank. Was he bent?

No. No, I just don't want
to discuss it, all right?

Since when has it been
like that? All right, all right.

When we worked together there was a girl in
the canteen. Simone. Gorgeous bit of stuff...

Hang on. Are you saying this is all
some macho bullshit over a woman?

Yeah, I was getting on very nicely, thank
you, then I was put on nights and he snuck in!

Oh, oh, listen to it! Talk
about the boot on the other foot!

I don't believe you, Gerry.
You're such a child! I loved her!

Oh, please! Do me a favour!

I'm going home. I'll just fill
the lads in on what they missed.

Cheers, Jack.

All right, what did we
miss? Never mind about that.

I want to know what you
two were really up to today?

Nothing. Now I know you're lying. People don't
say "nothing" unless they've been up to something.

So what was it? Nothing! Don't
you start! Are you cutting me out?

No he's not, Jack.
Of course not!

Well?

Look, Jack, we've, er...

There's a possibility that we
found a connection to hanson.

It's a faint possibility, Jack.
I'm sorry, I just didn't want to...

It's all right, I
understand, I understand.

Now listen, Gerry,

paterson could be useful.

He's still in the job and we don't have
the muscle to take on hanson ourselves.

I'm not going cap in
hand to that little toe rag!

Tyres screech

mr Harris? I can't stop, mate.

I'm a friend of frank paterson's. You've
heard what's happened to the son of albion?

No, I don't get down
there much now.

They've shut it down.

Oh, that's a shame, I
used to love that place.

Well, I'm organising
a gala night.

A celebration of
the east end pub

and frank said you
might be able to help us.

All right, come on.

To the old days.

Aye, before this
country gave up on itself.

Is that why you
ended up in Spain?

Yeah. It's still the good old
days over there. You ever been?

Nah. You'd love it. How
long have you lived there?

Since the mid '80s. Have you seen
much of frank paterson recently?

Nah, I've not seem him for
years. He's a good lad though.

You can always count on people
like frank to help you out of a jam.

Yeah. I was wondering if you could
help me track down a few people.

I thought you wanted
me to do a gig?

Oh, yes, I do, but I'm trying to rustle up some of
the old faces and I wondered if you had any numbers.

I'll do my best. One name always
comes to mind. Ricky hanson.

No, I don't know him. Oh, I'm sure he was
around while you were still drinking there?

Knocking on door
five minutes, ray.

All right. It's been
lovely talking.

If you wanna leave your number with the stage
door about the gig, I'll see what I can do.

Right. Thanks.

Can anyone join in?

Oh, the stalker's here. Get him a cocoa,
somebody, it's way past his bed time.

Ha-ha, no, I'm just warming up.

How much do you make
a year, Gerry? Enough.

No ambition, that's your
trouble. Too much, that's yours.

Getting to you now, is it? Feel
the sweat on the back of your neck?

Not me. You're bluffing.

It's gonna cost you to find
out. I'll raise you a grand.

I like your style.

I'll see your grand.

And all in.

I make that six
grand to see him.

I meant to ask you, Luke,
whatever happened to your ex?

You know, the one your old man was
shagging? That's all forgotten now. Is it?

Yeah. Women can be
so divisive, can't they?

You should know, the number of
times you've taken birds up the... Aisle.

Yeah, but I'm friends
with all my exes.

I mean do you ever speak to lysette now? Are you here
to play cards or have a ruck, huh? Either suits me.

Son, it's your birthday.

Well?

I'll see you. With what?
My motor's outside.

That pile of junk? It's even more
knackered than you are. Classic car.

And that.

Peckham market?

Bond street, actually.

This is embarrassing.

You'll have your
shirt on the table next.

Mr munroe? Ah, detective
superintendent. Sandra.

One night in April 1984 a group of skinheads from
the 24s attacked a young black man in his house.

Well, obviously I'm
very sorry to hear that.

They warned him off making any
inquiries about Sarah and Daniel.

You got some proof, of course? Why do you think
they did that? Dunno. Find them, ask them.

Did you send them round?

No, mr halford, I
didn't. You sure?

Now, why do you
reckon I'd want to do that?

Maybe Sarah found out something
about your organisation, and you.

Oh, right. Such as?

You could make this a
lot easier by cooperating.

Funny, I thought I already was. How's
your old mate Ricky hanson these days?

I presume you spoke to him at
Luke's birthday party yesterday?

Well, he's a business
associate, ain't he?

We'll talk again, Pete.

Jack, what the
hell's been going on?

It's my fault. Gerry and
Brian were only trying to help.

Gerry talked to his snout and
Ricky hanson's name came up.

They've been chasing him when they should've focused
on Sarah and Daniel? There may be a connection!

Jack, this obsession with
Ricky hanson, it has to stop!

That man nearly destroyed ucos last year and we've all
worked too damn hard to see him get the last laugh!

I know you're angry... no, actually
I'm not angry, I'm disappointed.

God knows you've got every reason to hate Ricky
hanson, but you can't make this a personal vendetta.

I'm not!

I'm not, it's just... You know what it does
to me every time I hear that man's name.

Now before you say anything, I've been thinking
about yesterday and I reckon I owe you.

For long service.

Consider that your
golden handshake.

How much you got there?

Yeah, I had a bit of a
result, as it happens.

Now, I want you to do
one more thing for me.

Here we go. No, no, no.

You always did give the best
shave this side of sweeney Todd.

So, come on, son,
do your best work.

Are you ready for
this? I am indeed, mate.

How about that, eh?
Yeah, same old Cologne.

Cor, takes you back
dunnit. Memories. Yeah.

What's happening?

You're making a big mistake
doing this while I'm here! Wanna bet?

You know what
happens to grasses.

Please, look. I'm not a grass.

You didn't think we
knew about you, Polish?

We've always known.

Stop it!

Ten grand and you can walk away.

Are you crazy? I
haven't got ten...

Ten grand or we torch
this place with you in it.

He cries in pain

all right, all right!

Inside pocket of me overcoat.

Now you tell your governor he's
going to lose more than a card game.

You all right, mate?

Come on, get up,
get up. Try and stand.

Where's Gerry? He
went to see his snout.

He might not have a job when
he gets back. Sandra knows.

Oh, no... no, no, I don't want to
hear another word till he gets here.

Phone rings

ucos.

You all right, mate?

Give me that phone! No, no, it's just Sandra was
wondering when you might be paying us a visit.

Give it to me!

Yeah...

Uh-huh...

Oh, I see...

You take care. I'm sorry,
Sandra, but he was with his snout

when they had a visit from
three of hanson's goons.

What? Why?

They wanted hanson's money back.

Out!

Just where in the
life on Mars handbook

does it tell you to gamble with
villains and freeze out your boss?

You've heard, then? Oh, yeah.

And when strickland hears, I hope
you know where the job centre is,

because you'll be driving
all four of us down there.

Hurry up!

I didn't wanna put you in a position where you
had to tell strickland. Nah, you didn't trust me.

We knew what you'd have to do.

And those are my
decisions to make, Jack!

Did it not occur to you why nobody
wanted you anywhere near hanson?

If you did find something, how
credible would that evidence be

given what happened
to us at the trial last year?

Or have you all forgotten?

We showed him pictures of Sarah and Daniel.
I know he knows more than he's saying.

It's not enough! Munroe told you he was
a business associate of hanson's, right?

Well, he was more than that. Hanson owns
munroe's company, suprabuild construction.

Now, prior to the spring of 1984,
it was a struggling building firm

and then, for some
reason, hanson took it over.

How do you know that?
Because I've been looking into it.

Then there's ray Harris. When I
spoke to him last night... You did what?!

It's all right, you can bollock me later. And I asked
him if he knew Ricky hanson and he said he didn't.

Well, he's not going to admit
to knowing a villain, is he?

And he also told me that he
left for Spain in the mid '80s.

Well, I checked exactly
when and it was may 1984.

Sarah and Daniel disappeared, the afl was
disbanded and Harris did a bunk all within a month.

And it was around that
time that the 24s packed it in.

Sarah and Daniel infiltrated
the 24s, led by munroe,

who is now an employee
of Ricky hanson.

And ray Harris had a grudge against Sarah
and Daniel and he was friends with hanson.

And he drank in a boozer which
just happened to be the 24s' local.

In which we have a photo of
paterson standing with Harris.

And yesterday, Grant lindon told you Sarah
was passing information onto the police.

Stop, stop. These are all
circumstantial connections.

Is it just me or have we not got any actual
evidence to link Sarah and Daniel with all of this?

Paterson was desperate to Nick hanson, even back then.
I'll lay any odds that he was Sarah's connection.

You think he's gonna tell us?
No, but he might tell Gerry though.

You'll talk to him? Pah!

You'll talk to him!

In the old days there was
us and there was villains.

And sometimes, to get the job done you blurred
the lines, played one side off against the other.

Is that what you did with Sarah
and Daniel? While we're here,

what were you doing at hanson's house yesterday
and at a casino at two in the morning?

You're very well informed.
You're not cib, Pullman,

you're detective super in an office so run down
you can't even afford a decent coffee machine!

I'm a detective super in an office reinvestigating
the disappearance of two young people

and I really don't need a lecture
on old school police procedure, sir.

Frank, fancy a cigarette?

Make yourselves comfortable.

You still got the bleeding
arse ache with me?

What, over Simone? No!

Good, cause I saved you a lot of grief there,
my son, she turned out to be a real ear basher.

Do you remember your ex, Jackie?

You didn't?

I've always liked you, Gerry, but I wish
we could have worked together more.

Well, maybe we can now.
Look, my guvnor's right.

Sarah was working
for you, wasn't she?

Oh, come on, frank.

If this gets us
anywhere near hanson,

it's a result for both of us.

Sarah was working for
herself, but I was useful to her.

Useful? She and that Daniel
haven't been seen for 25 years.

All I know is they were in the albion the last night
anybody saw them, as was Harris, hanson and munroe.

Why wasn't any of
this in your report?

It's complicated.

Hanson used the 24s as
a front for drug pushing,

but after Sarah and Daniel
vanished, he shut the business down.

The evidence was gone, so were my
two witnesses and no one was talking.

And you didn't want to
involve your friend ray Harris.

He told me you could be relied
upon to get him out of a jam.

So what was his involvement?
Wrong place at the wrong time.

His career was in trouble, last thing he
needed was getting involved in all that.

Besides, I gambled hanson would
pick up on the drugs racket again

and I didn't want him knowing
I was onto him. And did he?

No, he was too clever.
Made a bundle and moved on.

So you sacrificed Sarah
and Daniel for nothing?

I think you're forgetting
who the senior officer is here.

They knew the risks, and I did
try and warn them to back off.

I went to their squat, talked to
some woman there. Big tits, red hair.

Janet Spencer? Yeah. She
said she'd pass the message on,

never saw them again. Thank you.

You know the score, never
show your cards until you have to.

I'm out of this job in six
months, the clock's ticking.

Meaning what? Meaning you get Harris
or munroe to talk, maybe you've got a case.

But that's not the result
you want, is it, Jack?

What result do I want?

Justice for your wife.

And how am I gonna get that?

By going after someone I've
been courting for years. Who?

Luke hanson.

He was in the car with his father
when your wife was murdered.

How do you know that? Trust me.
But knowing's not the same as proving.

All you want is one last collar.

We all want hanson
off the streets, don't we?

Can you hear anything?

Not with you breathing
down me lug hole.

Oh, ah! Me back's gone!

What did he say? He said he
must need his head examining.

I'm going to back
you, but on my terms.

What happened to Sarah Jones and Daniel
Cobb when they left the son of albion?

How do you expect me to know?

You were there. All right...
Tell me about hanson.

What's to tell? Oh, it must
really have wound you up.

I mean, you were running a genuine political
party and he's using it as a drugs front.

Have you got anything
sensible to ask?

In 1984 your building company
almost went to the wall, no pun intended.

He chortles

and hanson bailed you out.

Now he's not famous for his charitable
donations, but he does reward loyalty.

What did you do for him?

Frank! Hey, nice
to see you, mate.

Look, I've got a show later on. How long's
it going to take? All depends. On what?

How talkative you feel.

(Does she have to be here?)

Yes, she does. Either I get the custody sergeant to
process ya, or we can do this the old fashioned way?

So what went down
in the albion that night?

I don't remember. I can
only help you if you help me.

Why are you treating
me like a criminal?

I thought we was mates?

Did ya?

A lot of people thought you'd like to see
the back of Sarah, then one day she's gone.

Handy!

Is this what you call "the old fashioned
way"? Nah, I haven't hit him yet.

Look, it was nothing
to do with me.

What wasn't?

Are you alone? What do you want?

To know whether
you're alone. Yeah.

Can we come in? Er, no.

Nice flats these.

You don't want to worry your neighbours by
us banging on your door all night, do you?

Sir.

Arguing

Brian Lane, metropolitan police.

I'm here to see Janet Spencer.

..Don't you dare speak to me like
that! How dare you be so patronising!

If you act... well, well,
well. Friends reunited.

You know I had a wife who died?

You know what
happened to her. Do I?

We're not here to play games, Luke.
She was hit by a car driven by your father.

I know because
he told me himself.

Then what you asking me for?

Because you were in the car,
too. You were with him. You saw it.

Why are you back with him again?

He stole your girlfriend,
he set you up for arson.

Well, he's my dad. He's all I
got. Is that what he tells you?

What do you think your
future's going to be, Luke?

He pays for this
place, I take it?

How long before he
decides you know too much?

Look what happened to your
uncle. Nothing happened to him.

Just because we couldn't charge your father doesn't
mean your uncle's not propping up a junction of the m25.

He killed his own brother.

What conscience has he got?

Before Sarah and Daniel disappeared
you had a visit from a policeman.

He told you to warn
them about the 24s.

I don't remember.
Oh, yes, you do.

You were a junior
member of the afl.

Sarah was the star, the one
picked by Grant to carry out his plan.

Woah, getting in with
the 24s wasn't my idea.

She said it was.

My idea? It was yours!

You knew I was against it.
I said it was too dangerous.

No, wait.

A few nights before those
skinheads came to the squat,

some bloke came round.

A friend of Sarah's, you said.

I don't remember.

I'd had a terrible time
with cancelled shows.

It was that cow Sarah's doing.

So I went down the albion to drown my sorrows
and there she was with hanson and munroe.

Turns out her and her boyfriend had
been passing themselves off as one of them.

I told them who she
really was. And then?

Ricky told me to get out of the way, book in a hotel
for a couple of nights, while they dealt with them.

Dealt with them, how? I don't
know. Where did they take them?

I don't know that either. You
mean you don't want to know.

Did they have lock-ups,
warehouses? Munroe might have.

He wasn't really a mate, it's just cos Ricky
had asked him to do my conservatory at the time.

If anything happened to
Sarah or Daniel, it's your fault.

Not a day goes by when I
haven't regretted not warning them.

Is that why you run this...

Place?

Makes you feel better, does it?

We used to laugh at you.

Only had you around cos
your family were loaded.

Never trust a trustafarian.

I should've known better.

George!

Open the door!

Gerry, go away.
I don't need this!

Oi! I'm not asking
ya, I'm telling ya.

Open the door!

If hanson knows you're a grass, how come
you're still able to walk? What do you mean?

Well, you got something on everybody, that's
your insurance. What have you got on him?

Nothing. Come on. Don't tell me there's not a
little black book in a safety deposit box somewhere?

Now, George, please,
I need an ace here.

I won't need money this
time, Gerry, I'll need protection.

Yeah, well, if it's
worth it, you'll get it.

There's a story about Ricky...
And his son's ex, lysette.

We know all about that.

No, you don't.

Beeping yeah, we're
getting something.

Well, you'd
better start drilling.

Sir.

Time's running out, Pete. Better get your
side of the story in before Ricky does.

We've made a rather nasty discovery
under ray Harris's conservatory.

Ring any bells?

It was Ricky's idea to take them to Ray's
place. I thought we'd just rough them up a bit.

Tell me what happened.

Ricky was already
laying into the lad

when Sarah said something
about going to the police,

how she had something
on us. I don't know.

Well, that was it. He pulled
out a knife and let Daniel have it.

I suppose he wanted Sarah to see what she had
coming. Ricky hanson murdered Daniel Cobb?

Yeah. Well, then he killed
her too. And the bodies?

We buried them. Well, the
equipment was already there.

Ricky reckoned if they found
them, they'd finger ray for it.

Jack. There he is again.

How many times have I
played this out in my head?

Go home, Jack.

I can't be worrying about you
whilst I'm doing this. Please, go home.

Just nail the bastard.

We know about the drugs
ring you set up with the 24s.

And we know you
killed Sarah and Daniel.

Bollocks. Charming as ever.
What are you doing here, anyway?

Enjoying myself.

Tell us about lysette, Ricky.

What d'you wanna know about her
for? The exact nature of your relationship.

I don't have nothing
to do with her.

She lives in malaga now, right?

Yeah. I bunged her a few
grand and told her to piss off.

Unusually generous
of you, as is this.

According to your bank, you send
lysette 1,500 Euros every month,

plus you cover the
rent on her apartment.

Little love nest, is it?

You tell me, you seem
to know all about it.

Bit more complicated
than that though, isn't it?

For the benefit of the tape, I'm showing mr
hanson a DNA report, exhibit number sp01.

What's this? Lysette Perry's
DNA sample and exhibit sp07.

Yours. They match.

You're her father and
you had sex with her.

It's what you've
come down to, is it?

You really are desperate, ain't
ya? So you admit you knew?

I ain't admitting nothing.

I've just told you that you had a sexual relationship
with your daughter and you didn't even blink.

I can understand why no one knew about it. Wouldn't
do your cred on the street much good, would it?

That'd better not be a threat.

And I take it you also didn't tell Luke that
he'd been sleeping with his half sister.

See you tomorrow.
What was that for?

Son?

You can see what they're
doing, can't you? Yeah.

They're playing you. I swear I
never touched her after I found out.

Who told you about it? Lysette said her
mother'd told her to keep away from the family.

I wanted to know why. It turns out her
mum had been a stripper in one of me clubs.

I didn't even know
she'd had a kid.

Why didn't you tell me?
How could I? Did you tell her?

Course not!

I loved her.

When we're out of
here, I'll explain it all.

There's nothing to
explain. Luke, we're family.

We can sort this.

Just stop it, all right?

I've had it, dad.

I want to make a statement.

I was in the car that night with him, and
when he hit mr halford's wife, he laughed.

Door bell rings

She laughs

they laugh

Come on in, come on
in. I'll get the glasses out.

Tell me all about it.

We did it, love.

We got him!
