- Morning.
- Morning.

Dawn abbott.
4
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,079
She was arrested three days ago,
5
00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:19,359
charged with intent to
supply amphetamines.
6
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,199
Well, that'd be a current
investigation, wouldn't it?
7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,759
It is, and there's no mystery
there, she's admitted to it.
8
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:25,439
But she does claim to
have new information
9
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:26,879
about a fatal fire
in a drinking club
10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,559
in ealing called the union,
11
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,679
which at the time, was
classified as an accident.
12
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:32,680
Okay.
13
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,119
Can I help at all?
14
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,919
Oh, I was just looking
at the various courses.
15
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,759
New members are always welcome.
16
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,319
And these lectures.
17
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,679
Yes, each lecture is
given by a u3a member,
18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,959
usually drawing on experience
from their previous life.
19
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,959
I mean, their professional life.
20
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:57,960
[Jack laughs]
21
00:00:57,961 --> 00:00:58,999
What did you do?
22
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:00,559
I was a police officer.
23
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:01,799
Oh, really?

some extra time on your hands?

August the 4th, 1996.
36
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,199
The union drinking club,
ealing, went up in flames.
37
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,479
Four people died and seven
others were hospitalised.
38
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,199
The people who died
were Hailey wilde,
39
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,120
who worked behind the bar,
40
00:01:47,121 --> 00:01:49,799
Terence cross, Chris stamp,
who worked for this one,
41
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,679
Mark Johnson, a local criminal.
42
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:52,520
[Gerry] Local?
43
00:01:52,521 --> 00:01:54,799
That's like saying
Heathrow's a local airport.
44
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,679
It is if you live in hounslow.
45
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:57,919
If this wasn't an accident,
46
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,879
then Mark Johnson
was definitely the target,
47
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,159
he's a serious player.
48
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,160
Did you know him?
49
00:02:02,161 --> 00:02:04,679
No, he had two brothers
who I did know a bit,
50
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,119
Danny and Carl.
51
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,359
Danny mostly, I met him
when I first joined the force
52
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,479
and he was still
robbing corner shops.
53
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,999
No, I think they
took over his crew,
54
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,559
and they're still running
it, as far as I know.
55
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:14,919
So, what are they into now?
56
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:16,439
Well, drugs mostly.
57
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,959
They put security in
various clubs and bars,
58
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,959
then they put
their own dealer in.
59
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,559
Well, according to
the original report,
60
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,079
the fire was probably caused by
61
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,359
faulty electrical wiring
in a first floor room.
62
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,839
It looks like an inferno.
63
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,079
[Sandra] There'd been
some building work
64
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,079
done there the week before,
and the contractor said that
65
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,679
he'd used the room
to store material,
66
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,359
such as turpentine,
paint thinner.
67
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:36,439
Well, they're
accelerants, aren't they?
68
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,239
That's why the fire
would've spread so quickly.
69
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:39,559
Yeah, that was the conclusion.
70
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,759
So, what's changed?
71
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:42,919
[Sandra] We have
a witness that claims
72
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:44,080
it wasn't an accident.
73
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,399
Oh, listen, could you put these
74
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:47,639
in the locker with your stuff?
75
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:49,239
- Yeah.
- Cheers.
76
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,119
Detective superintendent
Pullman, Gerry standing, ucos.
77
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,480
There you are.
78
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,879
You know, according to
dawn abbott's arrest report,
79
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,160
she's never been charged
with anything before.
80
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,960
Got a completely clean record.
81
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,440
This place must've come
as a bit of a shock, then.
82
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,079
I'd worked in the union
for almost four years,
83
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,159
since I was 18.
84
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,239
But you weren't there
the night of the fire.
85
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,839
It was my evening off.
86
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:17,680
I was lucky.
87
00:03:17,681 --> 00:03:18,840
Not so lucky now though, eh?
88
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,080
I made a mistake.
89
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,559
We can't offer you a
deal for information, dawn,
90
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,440
it doesn't work like that.
91
00:03:25,441 --> 00:03:26,920
I'm not looking for a deal.
92
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,599
[Sandra] Why don't you
think the fire was an accident?
93
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,919
Because someone
was after Mark Johnson.
94
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:36,279
I never knew who or why,
but someone wanted him dead.
95
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,479
[Sandra] How do you know that?
96
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,719
I heard some of
them talking about it
97
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,559
a couple of days
before the fire.
98
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,559
Mark and a couple of the others.
99
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,999
Terry cross was one of them.
100
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,679
Who also died in the fire.
101
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,079
Yeah.
102
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,119
I don't remember who else,
103
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,879
but they were taking
the threat seriously.
104
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,720
Why didn't you
come forward earlier?
105
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,719
You don't tell tales
where I come from.
106
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,359
You keep your head
down, look the other way.
107
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,559
But I heard Johnson talking
about someone coming after him,
108
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,959
and two days later, he was dead.
109
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,159
Do you think that's
a coincidence?
110
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,000
I don't think it's evidence,
111
00:04:06,001 --> 00:04:07,759
you'd have to give
us more than that.
112
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,280
Have you got more than that?
113
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,359
They said it was an accident.
114
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,759
They said the fire
spread so quickly
115
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,519
'cause there was things left
in the room where it started.
116
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,360
[Sandra] Yeah.
117
00:04:16,361 --> 00:04:17,559
Except there wasn't.
118
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:18,599
There was nothing
like that in the room,
119
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,560
everything had already
been taken away.
120
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,239
You sure about that?
121
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,959
We were storing empty
bottles in that room,
122
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,399
empty beer bottles.
123
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,519
Nothing that would catch alight.
124
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,079
I was in and out of there,
all the tools, all the paint,
125
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,759
everything was gone
days before the fire.
126
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,479
Anyone fancy a coffee?
127
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,079
Not for me, I
remember what it's like.
128
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,159
Must be odd being back
in the heart of the Nick.
129
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,079
We don't work from home at ucos.
130
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:43,999
I meant an incident
room, no offence.
131
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:44,840
None taken.
132
00:04:44,841 --> 00:04:46,679
Speak for yourself.
133
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,399
Look, let's start
again, shall we?
134
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,639
I was the investigating officer,
135
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,279
so any questions you've
got on the union fire,
136
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:52,559
anything you want to ask at all.
137
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,639
Well, the witness
statements were sketchy.
138
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,119
There was no establishment
of a coherent timeline.
139
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,519
And there's barely
any information
140
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,079
about the possible motives
141
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,240
regarding the deaths
of the deceased.
142
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,600
Let's take this into
my office, shall we?
143
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:16,999
Nice place you've got here.
144
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,879
There are people out
there I have to work with.
145
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,119
I prefer some privacy.
146
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,719
[Brian] What happened
to the witnesses, then?
147
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:22,799
Most of them wouldn't even admit
148
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,719
to being there when
the fire broke out.
149
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,399
Those that did didn't know
anything, didn't see anything.
150
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:28,639
And why do you think that was?
151
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,560
I know why it was.
152
00:05:29,561 --> 00:05:30,999
And if you spent
more than five minutes
153
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,240
with the file, so do you.
154
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,959
Mark Johnson was a player.
155
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,519
Nobody talked out of turn.
156
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,439
Not to him, not about him.
157
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,600
Not even after he died.
158
00:05:42,280 --> 00:05:43,200
[Sighs]
159
00:05:43,201 --> 00:05:45,079
This thing was dead in
the water from day one.
160
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,679
So, given the chance,
it was just easier
161
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,079
to write it up as an accident.
162
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,599
It wasn't just me,
forensics pointed that way.
163
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,199
Forensics could've been wrong.
164
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,239
I had no reason to think that.
165
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,879
Well, you might've done if
you'd spent a bit more on it.
166
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:57,999
Dug a bit deeper.
167
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,279
You don't know what it was like.
168
00:06:00,280 --> 00:06:01,839
Operation Horatio
had just been pulled,
169
00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:03,279
feelings were running high.
170
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:04,439
Horatio.
171
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:05,839
Yeah, it was a drugs team set up
172
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:08,040
to clamp down on
supply in west London.
173
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,920
Mark Johnson was a
name that kept cropping up.
174
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:14,919
We had a surveillance
team on him.
175
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,760
Some wire taps,
lot of man power.
176
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,199
But we didn't find
what we needed.
177
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,160
Not enough to build
a case against him.
178
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:25,279
Then the brass pulled the plug
179
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:27,399
about a month before the fire.
180
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,799
It was getting too expensive.
181
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,919
That must've been frustrating.
182
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,319
People were angry.
183
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,160
Won't deny that.
184
00:06:33,161 --> 00:06:35,840
And so, not too upset when
Johnson turned up dead.
185
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,959
I don't remember anyone
crying into their beer.
186
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,559
They just let it go.
187
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:42,759
Petfield admitted as much.
188
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,399
Brushed it under the carpet.
189
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,839
So, it's possible that dawn
abbott's telling the truth.
190
00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:48,919
Well, if she is, then the
fire was made to look
191
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,599
like an accident,
when in fact, it wasn't.
192
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,039
And there's nothing
in the case file
193
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,199
to indicate they found
anything else, is there?
194
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,679
Just a couple of baseball
bats behind the bar
195
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,279
and a gun in the male toilets.
196
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:01,239
[Jack] Was that sort of place.
197
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,239
What do we know about
this contractor bloke?
198
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,039
Oh, his name was Derek Ross.
199
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:05,920
You contacted him?
200
00:07:05,921 --> 00:07:08,199
Not possible, not
without a ouija board.
201
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,479
Died in 2001.
202
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,199
But I have traced his wife.
203
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,999
Oh, gold star for
Gerry. [Chuckles]
204
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,999
But the point is, why did
the fire spread so quickly
205
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,719
if Ross had taken
his stuff away?
206
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,519
I blame prometheus,
207
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,239
who, according to
Greek mythology,
208
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,519
stole fire from Zeus and
gave it to us mere mortals.
209
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,199
So, this is all
his fault, is it?
210
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,120
Yeah, if it wasn't for him,
211
00:07:29,121 --> 00:07:31,759
you'd be drinking
your cocoa cold.
212
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,119
Mind, he paid for it.
213
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:33,920
[Sandra sighs]
214
00:07:33,921 --> 00:07:35,599
He got tied to a
rock and had his liver
215
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,559
eaten by an eagle day after day.
216
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,119
Sorry.
217
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,639
It's just a fascinating
subject, this fire.
218
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,080
Glad you think so, Brian,
you can come with me.
219
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:47,400
1996.
220
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,359
August, wasn't it?
221
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:52,200
The 4th.
222
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,200
You remember?
223
00:07:53,201 --> 00:07:56,399
I was the lead fire
investigator at the time.
224
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,599
Four people died, I should.
225
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,759
Plus it was one
of my last cases.
226
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,519
I took early retirement
about six months later.
227
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,199
We've recently
received information
228
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,919
that the fire may not have
been an accident, Mr. Mackie.
229
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:08,760
Is that right?
230
00:08:08,761 --> 00:08:10,599
You don't sound very surprised.
231
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:11,719
I'm not.
232
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,759
[Sandra] Why is that?
233
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,240
Because I suspected
it was arson at the time.
234
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,839
Really, 'cause there's no
mention of that in the report.
235
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,159
I couldn't prove it.
236
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,040
Beside, the police
had other ideas.
237
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,399
Would you like some refreshment?
238
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:27,400
Thank you.
239
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,200
Derek was good with his hands.
240
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,599
He just wasn't very
good with money.
241
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,680
Apart from spending
it, of course.
242
00:08:38,560 --> 00:08:40,439
I have to do a couple
of days a week in here
243
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,080
just to keep
things ticking over.
244
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,599
At our age, we should
have our feet up. [Chuckles]
245
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,799
Mrs. Ross, what kind
of work did your husband
246
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,639
actually do at the union club?
247
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,279
He was a painter and decorator.
248
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:53,639
Nothing fancy.
249
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,119
Do you remember the fire?
250
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,399
I remember what
happened afterwards.
251
00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,159
Derek had to talk to the police,
he had to sign a statement.
252
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,319
[Jack] He must've
been badly affected by it.
253
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:04,559
Why?
254
00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:05,919
It wasn't his fault,
it was an accident.
255
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:06,760
Of course.
256
00:09:06,761 --> 00:09:09,360
It's just four people died.
257
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,879
He didn't talk about it.
258
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,799
But I suppose he was.
259
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,239
That's probably why he wanted
to splash out on a holiday.
260
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,200
A holiday?
261
00:09:19,201 --> 00:09:21,040
We had three weeks in Florida.
262
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,479
A lovely hotel, a different
restaurant every night.
263
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,679
Was this soon after the fire?
264
00:09:27,680 --> 00:09:29,120
About a month later.
265
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,759
After all the fuss
had died down.
266
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,759
Derek was owed some
money from some job or other.
267
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,600
He finally got paid,
so off we went.
268
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,399
Course, we would've been
better off saving something,
269
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,479
but oh, no, it was
a lovely holiday.
270
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,280
It was the last proper
one we had before he died.
271
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,919
I can see that you're
pretty adamant, Mr. Mackie,
272
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,479
but I'm not sure I
understand why.
273
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:56,999
Do you know much
about fire investigation?
274
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,599
Afraid not.
275
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,759
People will tell you it's
a science nowadays,
276
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,199
fluid dynamics is
what they call it.
277
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,800
That's true to an extent.
278
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:07,000
But it's also an art.
279
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,559
A good investigator will
have a feel for the fire itself.
280
00:10:11,560 --> 00:10:13,759
So, you felt it was arson?
281
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,359
That was my first impression
when I examined the scene.
282
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,479
The burn patterns on
the floor and the walls
283
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,079
suggested multiple
points of origin.
284
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,200
Meaning there was
an accelerant present?
285
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,639
Exactly.
286
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,279
What about the
turpentine and paint thinner
287
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,839
that were meant to have
been left in the room?
288
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,919
Well, they would certainly
qualify as accelerants,
289
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,960
they both burn at
very high temperatures.
290
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,599
Then I'm not sure I understand.
291
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,199
Where did this
feeling come from?
292
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,399
Smoke.
293
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,839
Smoke?
294
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,439
And the flames.
295
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,519
The materials you
mention produce
296
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,519
a white flame and brown smoke.
297
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,440
But an onlooker reported
seeing something different.
298
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,479
Yellow flame and black smoke.
299
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,919
And that's the
classic combination
300
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,359
which is produced
when petrol burns.
301
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,319
They could've been mistaken.
302
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:03,280
Oh, absolutely.
303
00:11:03,281 --> 00:11:06,119
Arriving at that type of
Blaze with all the people,
304
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,079
there's confusion,
there's panic.
305
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,999
But then I also
found a small amount
306
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,879
of melted rubber on
the floor of the room.
307
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:13,999
What kind of rubber?
308
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,479
Well, possibly a balloon,
but more likely a condom.
309
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,040
Well, a room in the
back of a drinking club.
310
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,999
And there was a
little wax on the floor,
311
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,320
from a candle, I think.
312
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:27,759
How very romantic.
313
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,639
Not really.
314
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,400
You light a candle.
315
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,359
And then you suspend
the condom over it,
316
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,839
filled with your
accelerant of choice.
317
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,640
The candle burns
through the rubber.
318
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,639
And releases the liquid.
319
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,959
It's a timer.
320
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:45,960
A crew bone.
321
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,440
But it can be
extremely effective.
322
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,039
So, Derek Ross
came into some money
323
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,879
after the accident verdict.
324
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,199
Enough for the holiday
of a lifetime, at least.
325
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,559
Maybe his premium bonds came up.
326
00:12:03,560 --> 00:12:06,319
The odds on that are
about 24,000 to one.
327
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:07,639
What are the odds
that he was paid to say
328
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,679
he left the turpentine and
paint thinner in the room?
329
00:12:09,680 --> 00:12:11,719
Considerably
shorter, I should think.
330
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,119
What about this person
331
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,719
that Mark Johnson
was worried about?
332
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,679
Well, we've asked for the
files on operation Horatio.
333
00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:19,919
Transcripts on
surveillance of Johnson.
334
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,199
May give us some idea of
335
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,280
what was going on
around him at the time.
336
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:27,440
Was that out?
337
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,120
Yeah, yeah.
338
00:12:29,121 --> 00:12:31,159
You put that cigarette out?
339
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,000
'Cause that bin's full of
340
00:12:32,001 --> 00:12:34,439
highly flammable
material, you know.
341
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,680
That's an inferno
waiting to happen, is that.
342
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:38,720
Here.
343
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:40,640
Happy now?
344
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,599
I hope you're more
careful at home.
345
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,079
One in three house fires is
caused by cigarettes, you know.
346
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,559
What about other witnesses?
347
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:51,159
Well, there were 30
people in that place
348
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,119
at the time it went up,
349
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,559
but according to
petfield, he couldn't get
350
00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:57,799
more than four or five to
admit that they were even there.
351
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:58,839
And none of them would be likely
352
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,519
to have changed
their minds, even now.
353
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,559
I found someone who might.
354
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:04,119
David swallow.
355
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,439
He was part of Johnson's mob
356
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,079
and he was in the
union that night.
357
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,199
Why would he help us?
358
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,599
He had first-degree
burns to half his body
359
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,360
and spent over
a year in hospital.
360
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,560
As good a reason as any.
361
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,199
There was only one way out.
362
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,119
Back down the stairs,
through the main door.
363
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,439
Could you tell where
the fire started?
364
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,999
Not at the time.
365
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,759
It was so sudden.
366
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,079
One minute, everything was
normal, and then total panic.
367
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,719
[Ominous music]
368
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,360
I remember people
screaming, fighting to get out.
369
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:40,600
And the smell.
370
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,640
I can still, even now,
I can taste that smell.
371
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:46,840
I wake up with it.
372
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:47,760
That'll never go away.
373
00:13:47,761 --> 00:13:49,960
[Beeping]
374
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,920
Excuse me, please, for a moment.
375
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,279
[Phone rings]
376
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:05,280
Yeah?
377
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,239
Oh, great, yeah, yeah.
378
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,280
Yeah, bring him down.
379
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:15,560
[Jack sighs]
380
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:16,560
Are you getting anywhere?
381
00:14:16,561 --> 00:14:19,039
No, most of it's gobbledygook.
382
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,320
That Johnson's talking
in some kind of patois.
383
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,199
But there is one name
that keeps cropping up
384
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,640
in his conversations
around the right time.
385
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:28,919
Stuart Russell.
386
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,920
Well, whoever it is, Johnson's
not very happy with him.
387
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,759
I've got that name here.
388
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:36,760
Here.
389
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,959
Here again.
390
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,800
All in the weeks
before the fire.
391
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:42,800
Thanks.
392
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:44,480
[Brian] George!
393
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,199
Sorry to barge in uninvited.
394
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,519
Jack, this is George mackie.
395
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:49,360
Ah!
396
00:14:49,361 --> 00:14:51,119
The fire investigator.
397
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:52,999
- Nice to meet you.
- Hi.
398
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,839
I put down a few thoughts
on the union fire at the time.
399
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,559
Notes, just for myself,
for reference, really.
400
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,559
I did so on all the
fires I investigated.
401
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,599
Dug it out the loft,
thought it might be useful.
402
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:04,959
Look at that.
403
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,959
Thanks very much. [Laughs]
404
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,879
So, this is the
control room, is it?
405
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,279
The place where it all happens.
406
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,079
Yes, well, something like that.
407
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,359
You're very kind,
thank you very much.
408
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,360
Thanks, George.
409
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:24,280
The red ones are for the pain
410
00:15:24,281 --> 00:15:25,959
and the yellow ones
are for rejection.
411
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,040
The blue ones...
412
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:29,520
I don't even remember.
413
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,080
Every day, twice a day.
414
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,919
I can barely move if I forget.
415
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,240
We'd like to talk to you
about Mark Johnson.
416
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,399
I haven't got anything
to say about him.
417
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,479
You don't know what
we're going to ask yet.
418
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,840
Who didn't like
him, who set the fire,
419
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,319
whose fault was it I
ended up like this?
420
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,879
Why do you think it was
anyone's fault, Mr. Swallow?
421
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,799
The official report
said it was an accident.
422
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,560
So, what are you doing
here asking me about it, then?
423
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,920
I didn't have anything
to say when it happened.
424
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,319
What makes you think
that would've changed?
425
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,039
Time's passed, things do change.
426
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,079
Mark Johnson's been
dead for nearly 15 years.
427
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,279
He might be, but his
brothers are still around.
428
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,639
They'd be the first who'd
want to know what happened.
429
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,559
You're assuming
they don't already.
430
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,200
You're saying that Johnson's
brothers wanted to kill him?
431
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,679
Well, with Mark Johnson dead,
432
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,359
Danny and Carl take over
the business, it makes sense.
433
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,959
I don't know.
434
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,679
What's bothering you?
435
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:36,959
Look, they were brothers.
436
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,639
And not just any old
brothers, they were really close.
437
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:40,959
I mean, you look
funny at one of them,
438
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,399
the other two are in your
face before you know it.
439
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:44,760
Families fall out, Gerry.
440
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:50,560
See you tomorrow.
441
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,000
My name is Jack halford.
442
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,280
My name is Jack halford.
443
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,320
What you doing?
444
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,479
Four!
445
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,280
Hello, Danny.
446
00:17:31,281 --> 00:17:32,759
It's all right, dom.
447
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,600
It's an old friend.
448
00:17:33,601 --> 00:17:35,119
Oh, I wouldn't go that far.
449
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:36,999
All right, old acquaintance
then, how's that?
450
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,000
That's more like it.
451
00:17:38,001 --> 00:17:39,439
You here to work
on your swing, Gerry?
452
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,319
No, not exactly, no.
453
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:42,359
Come on.
454
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:43,200
Come and hit a few.

00:17:43,201 --> 00:17:44,760

458
00:17:58,760 --> 00:17:59,760
So, why now?
459
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,319
What's changed?
460
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,839
You lot weren't exactly all
over it when it happened.
461
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,000
You weren't interested.
462
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,199
No, but we're interested now.
463
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:10,600
We got some new information.
464
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,359
What kind of information?
465
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:16,399
You know I can't tell you that.
466
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,560
I do, but you can't
blame me for asking.
467
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,640
So, do you know
who did it, Gerry?
468
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,399
You know who killed Mark?
469
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,400
Not yet, no.
470
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:29,800
Whoa.
471
00:18:29,801 --> 00:18:31,279
Good looking, son.
472
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:32,920
Listen, how's Carl these days?
473
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,399
I don't see much of him anymore.
474
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,239
He likes the sun more than I do.
475
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,559
Or rather his missus does.

business is good, eh?
480

Ah, the way the world is
now, everybody needs security.

excuse to start something.
483
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,160
Yeah.
484
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,999
Only now, of course, you
only have to share the profits

two ways, don't you?

00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,759
I mean, it's just
you and Carl, innit?
487
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,000
Now that Mark's dead.
488
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,879
What, you saying we're involved?
489
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,399
Is that what you're saying?
490
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,479
That we'd kill our own brother,
our own flesh and blood?
491
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:16,480
Did you?
492
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,240
I think you'd better go.
493
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,160
Yeah, maybe you're right.
494
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,439
I'm not on top of
me game, anyway.
495
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,039
Thank you.
496
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,560
You know it wasn't us, Gerry.
497
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,520
You know that.
498
00:19:30,521 --> 00:19:32,319
But if you do find
out who it was,
499
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,399
you should give me a heads up.
500
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,039
I'll make it worth your while.
501
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,360
Plus on top of that, you'd
save the taxpayer a few pounds.
502
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:40,600
Think about it, Gerry.
503
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,600
Give me a name.

Be a win/win for everybody.

What's that?

It's a new smoke alarm.

What's wrong with
the ones we've got?
508
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,399
They're ionisation alarms.

00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,119
This is an optical unit.
510
00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:03,519
What?
511
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,999
Well, it's more sensitive.
512
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,359
And it's got a carbon
monoxide detector, which-

Switch it off!

I can't!

00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:15,799
It won't!

- Oh.
- It's not in here.

00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,480

The man on the left
is Danny Johnson.

The man next to
him is obviously-
527
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:50,520
Gerry.
528
00:20:50,521 --> 00:20:51,679
Exactly.
529
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,639
What's standing
doing with Johnson?
530
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:54,719
Carrying out inquiries.
531
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,599
The Johnsons are involved
with the union club fire.

How so?

00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:01,639
and the oldest, Mark,
was killed in the fire.
535
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,679
Who took the pictures?
536
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,399
An officer from the projects
team on organised crime.
537
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,359
They've had Danny
Johnson under surveillance.
538
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:08,559
They getting anywhere?
539
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:09,560
Nothing yet.
540
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,359
So, obviously, if you
dig something up.
541
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:13,680
We all get to look good.
542
00:21:18,120 --> 00:21:19,080
According to strickland,
543
00:21:19,081 --> 00:21:21,359
the operation's been going
on for more than a year.
544
00:21:21,360 --> 00:21:23,519
Well, either Danny
hasn't got anything to hide,
545
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,599
or he doesn't know about it.
546
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,279
Who were the other people?
547
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,879
Couple of heavies, and
that is some kid called jojo.
548
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,319
Seems to be a general dogsbody.
549
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,599
Now, until I mentioned the
fire, Danny was totally relaxed.
550
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,399
Every shot, straight
down the pipe.
551
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,959
Yeah, you must've
sliced a few, though.
552
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:41,800
I did, as it happens.
553
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,640
How'd you know that?
554
00:21:42,641 --> 00:21:44,399
Look at your right
elbow, it's all wrong.
555
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,719
- Why?
- Well, here and there.
556
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,879
Look, it should be pointing
towards your right hip.
557
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,399
Yeah, you're right,
it's the old flying elbow.
558
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:51,240
Exactly.
559
00:21:51,241 --> 00:21:53,359
[Sandra clears throat]
560
00:21:53,360 --> 00:21:55,079
What do we think about
Danny and Carl Johnson
561
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,479
being involved in the fire?
562
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,999
I don't think so.
563
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,279
I saw Danny's eyes.
564
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,639
There was real hatred there.
565
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,439
He even offered me money
to come up with a name.
566
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:04,479
That could be a smoke screen,
567
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:05,919
doesn't mean that
he wasn't involved.
568
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,759
I know that, I
just don't see it.
569
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,079
But if they weren't involved,
where does that leave us?
570
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,959
Well, we might have something.
571
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:13,800
We've been going over
572
00:22:13,801 --> 00:22:16,239
the transcripts of
operation Horatio,
573
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:17,719
the original team
that was trying to
574
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:18,799
bring down Mark Johnson.
575
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,919
He was very clever,
576
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,679
he always did business
through somebody else,
577
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,639
he never got his
own hands dirty.
578
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,559
And when he had to
talk to someone directly,
579
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,759
he did it in the
back of a black cab.
580
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:28,959
He'd just hail one down.
581
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,199
That's where he
held his meetings.
582
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,799
The surveillance boys
wired up a couple of cabs
583
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,079
and had them circling the block,
584
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,519
and they got lucky a few times
585
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:36,959
and picked up some
of his conversations.
586
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,679
I thought they couldn't
find enough to use.
587
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:39,999
Well, they didn't.
588
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,479
But the thing is that, a
few months before the fire,
589
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,559
the same name kept cropping up.
590
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,040
Stuart Russell.
591
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,759
- Russell?
- Yeah.
592
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,479
Why, do you know him?
593
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,719
No, don't think so, but I've
seen that name recently.
594
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,560
Who is he?
595
00:22:55,561 --> 00:22:57,919
Small-time operator on
the edge of Johnson's crew.
596
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,639
Oh, Russell, Russell.
597
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,199
[Jack] According
to the transcripts,
598
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,999
Johnson wasn't very
happy with Russell.
599
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,000
Why?
600
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,479
Well, Johnson was always
very careful on those tapes.
601
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:09,959
Everything was hinted at.
602
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,839
Nothing too overt.
603
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,079
I've seen that name, I
know I have, Russell!
604
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,159
Isn't that the wrong way round?
605
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,159
I mean, Johnson being
angry with Russell.
606
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,359
Well, yes, it is,
607
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:22,959
except that six weeks before
the fire, Russell was shot.
608
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,479
And there were
no witnesses to it
609
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,999
apart from Russell himself,
and he wasn't talking.
610
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,079
And you think that it was
Johnson that shot him?
611
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,199
Or one of his crew.
612
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,359
And he was
discharged from hospital
613
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:33,639
a week before the fire.
614
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,559
That's it, hospital!
615
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,599
When we went to see dawn abbott,
616
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,040
I was signing us in, right?
617
00:23:40,360 --> 00:23:43,399
Stuart Russell was
one of her visitors.
618
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:44,240
Are you sure?
619
00:23:44,241 --> 00:23:46,279
Positive, it's in the book!
620
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,280
Hey, hey!
621
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,840
[Machine whirring]
622
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:05,959
[Sandra] Mr. Russell?
623
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,359
Yeah?
624
00:24:07,360 --> 00:24:09,839
Detective superintendent
Pullman, this is Gerry standing,
625
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,159
we'd like a word
if that's all right.
626
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,679
What about?
627
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:13,719
We're investigating the fire
628
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,319
at the union club back in '96.
629
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,280
What's that got to do with me?
630
00:24:17,281 --> 00:24:19,039
We've been talking
to dawn abbott,
631
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,239
and we know you have too.
632
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,959
I went round to see her,
if that's what you mean,
633
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,319
it's nothing to
do with the fire.
634
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,039
What was it to do with?
635
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,519
We're old mates, that's
all, we go back a long way.
636
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,359
So, nothing to do with
Mark Johnson, then?
637
00:24:29,360 --> 00:24:30,240
No.
638
00:24:30,241 --> 00:24:32,360
And nothing to do
with you getting shot.
639
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,720
Mackie's got a
real eye for detail.
640
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,320
Everything's written down, look.
641
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,279
Ambient temperature outside.
642
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,359
Wind direction.
643
00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:46,439
The chemical makeup of
644
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,879
everything combustible
in the building.
645
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,079
It's really meticulous.
646
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,879
Yeah, well, Derek
Ross certainly wasn't.
647
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,399
I got hold of some
of his paperwork
648
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,639
from the people who did
his company accounts.
649
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,719
I'm trying to find out
whether that cash he received
650
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,639
after the fire was legit.
651
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,559
But it's such a mess.
652
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,399
Well, his wife did say he
weren't very good with money.
653
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,800
Yeah, well, she was being kind.
654
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:12,600
What?
655
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:14,280
Nothing.
656
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:22,399
What?
657
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,799
No, I was just wondering
why you won't tell me
658
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,160
what you're lecturing about.
659
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,120
Standard investigative
procedures?
660
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,079
Well, not exactly.
661
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,959
Interviewing techniques?
662
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,880
The role of forensic science?
663
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,559
Serial killers.
664
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:40,919
Serial killers?
665
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:41,959
Well, they wanted
blood and Gore.
666
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,040
They said that's what
people are really interested in.
667
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,320
Serial killers.
668
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,239
So, what do you want to know?
669
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,919
We could start with who
shot you, Mr. Russell?
670
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:00,760
You're the police,
671
00:26:00,761 --> 00:26:01,959
I thought that was
supposed to be your job.
672
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,719
Well, you didn't give us
much to go on at the time,
673
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,039
no description of the
gunman, no possible motive.
674
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,119
I always thought it was
675
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:09,799
a case of mistaken
identity, myself.
676
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,599
That seems fairly
unlikely, given your record.
677
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,719
I mean, you were hardly
a boy scout, were you?
678
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,560
I was, as it happens,
three badges.
679
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,079
Look, I was young and
stupid, it was a long time ago.
680
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,919
I had a lot of time to
think in that hospital.
681
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,439
Lot of time to look at my life.
682
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:26,440
What did you see?
683
00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:28,560
Not much that I liked.
684
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:30,520
Not much at all.
685
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,039
So, I made up my
mind to change it.
686
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,839
Do something different.
687
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,119
Something simpler, maybe,
688
00:26:36,120 --> 00:26:37,279
but something
that I'd be proud of.
689
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,479
So, completely different to
what you did for Mark Johnson.
690
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:41,879
Could say that, yeah.
691
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,279
How did you feel when
Johnson died, Mr. Russell?
692
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,799
I didn't feel anything.
693
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:46,640
Not one way or the other.
694
00:26:46,641 --> 00:26:48,160
It was nothing to do with me.
695
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:51,520
Can I get on?
696
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,959
Turned his life around.
697
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,359
If I've heard that once.
698
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:57,759
Maybe it's true this time.
699
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:58,919
He's not been
arrested for anything
700
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,119
since he came out of hospital,
701
00:27:00,120 --> 00:27:01,439
he's held down a steady job.
702
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,240
Just like Derek Ross.
703
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,479
For two years after the fire,
Derek Ross worked solidly.
704
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,239
For a mini cab firm, a couple
of local bars, a takeaway.
705
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,959
Now, that in itself
is not unusual,
706
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,440
but there was a connection.
707
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,359
Anyone got any ideas
what that might be?
708
00:27:20,360 --> 00:27:22,239
Aren't you supposed
to be telling us?
709
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,240
Gerry?
710
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:25,040
I don't know.
711
00:27:25,041 --> 00:27:27,039
- How about you, Brian?
- Oh, give over.
712
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,079
I'm not a bloody Guinea pig.
713
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,279
What's that mean?
714
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,080
He's practising on us.
715
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,359
He's lecturing at this
university of the third age.
716
00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:37,599
Oh, thanks, Brian.
717
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:38,639

718
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:39,480
[Laughing]
719
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,400
No, well, I just popped in
720
00:27:40,401 --> 00:27:41,879
to see if they had
anything on offer,
721
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,359
and when they found out I
was a retired copper, they...
722
00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:47,359
I just got talked into it.
723
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:48,799
Good for you, Jack.
724
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:49,879
Gold star!
725
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:50,720
[Jack groans]
726
00:27:50,721 --> 00:27:52,919
Well, go on, then, what's
the connection between them?
727
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,879
Well, all these
businesses were controlled
728
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,119
by the Johnson brothers.
729
00:27:56,120 --> 00:27:58,079
They probably used
them to clean their money.
730
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,999
But the point is they
gave Derek Ross work.
731
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,359
Why would they do
that if they thought
732
00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:06,040
he was at least partly
responsible for Mark's death?
733
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,279
I expected better
from you, Gerry.
734
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,279
A couple of uniforms
on my doorstep.
735
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,719
You're not under
arrest, Mr. Johnson,
736
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,519
I hope they made that clear.
737
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:21,919
No, they didn't.
738
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,079
You're free to go at any time.
739
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:23,960
Oh, well, in that case.
740
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:24,800
Although as we're investigating
741
00:28:24,801 --> 00:28:25,839
the murder of your brother,
742
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,599
I'd have thought you'd
be only too willing to help.
743
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,239
Unless you already
know what happened.
744
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,679
We've had this conversation.
745
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:31,759
Only the first part.
746
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:32,720
What, you think I'm gonna
sit here and talk to you
747
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,560
about my business?
748
00:28:33,561 --> 00:28:36,159
No, no, no, not your
business, your brother.
749
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,679
We're not looking
into any activities
750
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,359
that you may or may
not have been involved in
751
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,680
at the time, Mr. Johnson,
it's not our concern.
752
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,159
Anything you say in this
room is strictly off the record.
753
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,439
I want your word on that.
754
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:48,280
You have it.
755
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,240
Not yours.
756
00:28:49,241 --> 00:28:51,159
Don't know you from
Adam, I want his.
757
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,000
You've got it.
758
00:28:52,001 --> 00:28:53,640
We're only
interested in the fire.
759
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,680
We always knew it
wasn't an accident.
760
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,319
We'd had all the right inspections,
place was done up nice.
761
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,839
But there was a team of
you lot looking straight at us.
762
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,359
Special operation.
763
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,319
- Horatio?
- That's it.
764
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,399
We were in the cross hairs.
765
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:11,880
What, and you knew about it?
766
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:13,880
Course we did.
767
00:29:13,881 --> 00:29:15,520
You had an informant
within the force?
768
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,560
All right, all right,
nothing except the fire.
769
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,399
You called off the dogs, you
didn't have anything on us.
770
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,639
Then Mark died in the fire.
771
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,319
And the last thing you needed
was another investigation.
772
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,759
Yeah, we didn't want
to risk it, we couldn't.
773
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,919
So, you paid Derek
Ross to say that he'd left
774
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,919
turps and paint in
that room at the union?
775
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:36,800
Yeah.
776
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:37,640
Make it look like
it was an accident.
777
00:29:37,641 --> 00:29:39,399
I mean, it was easy enough.
778
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,119
He'd worked in a place
a couple of days before,
779
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:42,199
he was happy to
earn a bit extra.
780
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,599
Soon as he told you lot that,
the whole thing disappeared.
781
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,319
Which meant you could go
back to business as usual.
782
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,800
There was nothing usual
about it, Mark was dead.
783
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,960
Turned over every
rock we could think of.
784
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,039
We just couldn't find anything.
785
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,239
And because you
wouldn't talk to the police,
786
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,960
you let his killer
get away with it.
787
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,600
Well, Mark knew how it was.
788
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,360
He would've understood.
789
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,120
Thank you.
790
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,119

Yeah, can I...

them, I can tell you.

But it's not what
you're thinking.
808
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,160
The fire was started using
some kind of timing device.
809
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,719
It seems simple enough.
810
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,280
Oh, aye, seems simple.
811
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,319

have you tried it?

Each time, the same result.
817

right, then it doesn't work.

this gcse experiment

actually get us, Brian?

I don't know, but
it seems to me that
825
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:18,239
whoever set the fire
either got very lucky,
826
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:19,840
or they might've done it before.

00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:22,960

trapped inside.

But how do you know
he wanted Johnson dead?

Because he asked
me to shoot him.

Stuart was branching out.

He was dealing drugs, but
using the Johnson name.

They weren't gonna have that.
868

00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:50,200
I used to do your job.
892
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,159
Well, it was a while ago.
893
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,839
Special adviser.
894
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,160
Well, I shouldn't, but come on.
895
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:08,360
So, what happened?
896
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:10,960
Why didn't you
shoot Mark Johnson?
897
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,480
I couldn't do it.
898
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,280
I thought I could, but when
it came down to it, I just...
899
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,000
Truth is, I bottled it.
900
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,039
I didn't even pick up the gun.
901
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:25,920
I just left it there.
902
00:35:25,921 --> 00:35:28,160
Did you tell Russell that
you weren't gonna do it?
903
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,360
Did you tell him that you
were pulling out, Mr. Swallow?
904
00:35:36,720 --> 00:35:38,319
Yeah.
905
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:39,320
Yeah, I did.
906
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,399
Well, there are obvious
signs of flashover.
907
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,560
It was clearly an intense heat.
908
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,599
What about accelerants?
909
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,199
Nothing yet.
910
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,440
There's a rapid spread.
911
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:56,640
Signs of flashes.
912
00:35:58,240 --> 00:36:01,200
We'd expect there would
probably be something
913
00:36:13,720 --> 00:36:14,560
Like this.
914
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:15,560
What is it?
915
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,519
It's wax, from a candle.
916
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:20,520
Looks like it.
917
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,880
That's the same
method as the union fire.
918
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,439
It was there on the floor,
just like in the union fire.
919
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:30,679
What, candle wax?
920
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,199
Yeah, a little piece,
a tiny little piece.
921
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,199
Well, it's hardly
conclusive proof
922
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,279
that it was the same
person who set both fires.
923
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,359
No, but it would make sense
924
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,119
if that person was
Stuart Russell.
925
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,519
[Sandra] Because swallow
agreed to shoot Johnson,
926
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,519
then decided that he
couldn't go through with it.
927
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,599
What, and Russell takes
it into his own hands?
928
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:49,440
Yeah.
929
00:36:49,441 --> 00:36:52,599
A candle, a condom,
a little bit of lighter fuel.
930
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,199
And whoosh.
931
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,679
Mark Johnson dies,
Russell gets what he wanted,
932
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,479
except when we started digging,
933
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,720
he became worried
that swallow might talk.
934
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:03,440
Well, it's possible.
935
00:37:03,441 --> 00:37:04,999
You do know swallow takes
936
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,399
a load of different
drugs, don't you?
937
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:07,519
They're prescription.
938
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,079
Yeah, but you don't
know what they might do,
939
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,719
everything has side effects.
940
00:37:10,720 --> 00:37:13,119
We're not here to
discuss his medication.
941
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,279
Maybe you should be.
942
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,839
It's obviously done
something to his memory.
943
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:17,879
You saying he's lying?
944
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,360
Lying's a strong word.
945
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,439
More likely he's just confused.
946
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:24,759
Bit hazy about the details.
947
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,919
He seemed to remember
you getting shot very clearly.
948
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,559
And you wanting
revenge on Johnson.
949
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,519
It was a long time ago, I
wouldn't take it very seriously.
950
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,439
It's our job to take it
seriously, Mr. Russell,
951
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:35,440
and you should too.
952
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,199
In that case, I'll be
as clear as I can.
953
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,759
I didn't try and kill Johnson,
I didn't set any fires.
954
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:41,600
Is that enough for you?
955
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:42,440
No, not quite,
956
00:37:42,441 --> 00:37:43,479
let's go back to where
you were at lunchtime.
957
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,159
I told you, I bought a sandwich,
958
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:46,520
I went and sat in the park.
959
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,719
I like a bit of peace
and quiet during the day.
960
00:37:49,720 --> 00:37:50,799
Did you see anyone there?
961
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:51,680
Not to talk to.
962
00:37:51,681 --> 00:37:52,719
That's convenient.
963
00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:54,199
Well, it's the truth, innit?
964
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:55,439
Unless there's anything else.
965
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:56,640
We'll be in touch.
966
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,759
Your theory is that
Johnson shot me.
967
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,079
That's right, because
you were using his name.
968
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,359
In which case, he probably
didn't like me very much.
969
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:07,879
[Sandra] Shouldn't think he did.
970
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,199
Well, how exactly
am I meant to have
971
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,559
hidden a gun in his club, then?
972
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,480
[Mysterious music]
973
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,319
Two pints of bitter and
a fizzy water, please.
974
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:24,799
Two?
975
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,439
Oh, sorry, one pint of
bitter and a fizzy water.
976
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:28,440
Was forgetting.
977
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,079
Think Russell's right, you know.
978
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,959
Wouldn't have been easy
to plant that gun in there.
979
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,879
We know Johnson was
very keen on security.
980
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,719
Yeah, but where there's
a will, there's a way.
981
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:43,559
But why would he want
to set fire to the place?
982
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,679
He wanted Johnson dead,
and swallow pulled out.
983
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,599
Yeah, but just
by setting a fire,
984
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,319
he couldn't be sure that it
would kill Johnson, could he?
985
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,039
There was no way of knowing.
986
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:54,999
Maybe he just got lucky.
987
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,600
Very lucky, as Jack said.
988
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,080
Do you think he'd be all right?
989
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:02,200
Who?
990
00:39:02,201 --> 00:39:03,519
Jack.
991
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:04,360
Oh, yeah.
992
00:39:04,361 --> 00:39:07,959
What if no bugger
turns up? [Laughs]
993
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,200
Nah, that's not
gonna happen, is it?
994
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,079
Cheers.
995
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,559
Been looking
forward to this all day.
996
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:16,840
How can we know, though?
997
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,200
What if he's all
on his lonesome?
998
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,080
There's nothing
we can do about it,
999
00:39:22,081 --> 00:39:23,640
he didn't tell us where it is.
1000
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:26,560
We're detectives, Gerry.
1001
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,560
Yes, Brian, and
I'm having a pint.
1002
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,839
Blimey, are all these
people here to see Jack?
1003
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,519
No, they can't be.
1004
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,320
There must be
something else going on.
1005
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,199
Ladies and gentlemen,
1006
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,959
if you'd like to take your
seats, then we can begin.
1007
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,279
Thank you very much.
1008
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,640
They bloody are, you know.
1009
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,319
Oh, come on,
then, let's sit down.
1010
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:03,280
[Gerry] What for?
1011
00:40:03,281 --> 00:40:04,880
Well, we're here now, aren't we?
1012
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,200
[Crowd chattering]
1013
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,159
- [Jack clears throat]
- Moral support.
1014
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:17,160
Evening.
1015
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,479
Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.
1016
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:25,480
My name is Jack halford,
and I'm a retired detective.
1017
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,879
I spent over 30 years
as a police officer,
1018
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,519
investigating a wide
range of criminals.
1019
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:32,600
He's good, isn't he?
1020
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,679
Including, on occasion,
1021
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:40,680
individuals who might be
described as serial killers,
1022
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,160
which is the subject
of today's talk.
1023
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,519
If we ignore the
special circumstances
1024
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,919
surrounding the
Harold shipman case,
1025
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:56,519
we will find that britain's
most prolific serial killer
1026
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,119
was Dennis nilsen.
1027
00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,199
It's not true.
1028
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:00,200
What?
1029
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,439
Nilsen was arrested
in February, 1983,
1030
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,799
but his killing spree had
started some five years earlier.
1031
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,039
The most prolific
killer isn't nilsen.
1032
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:12,559
Shh.
1033
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:13,560
Peter dinsdale.
1034
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,440
Nilsen worked
as a civil servant.
1035
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,599
He was quiet and unassuming.
1036
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,279
Not the sort of person you
would give a second glance to,
1037
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,759
and yet he murdered 15 people.
1038
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,920
Dinsdale murdered
nearly twice that many.
1039
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,959
After cutting up their bodies,
1040
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,039
he then disposed of
them under the floorboards
1041
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,999
and in the drains
of his property.
1042
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,159
26 people, dinsdale did.
1043
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,479
And when the police
came to arrest him...
1044
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:47,880
It's nearly twice as many.
1045
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,919
I'm sorry, Mr...
1046
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,479
Yes, you in the coat.
1047
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:54,959
Mr...
1048
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,359
Well, you know who I am.
1049
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:57,919
You have something to say?
1050
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,480
Perhaps you'd like to
share it with the rest of us?
1051
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,280
No.
1052
00:42:02,281 --> 00:42:03,439
Oh, what a shame.
1053
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,360
I'm sure we'd all love to have
heard what you had to say.
1054
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:11,120
It was nothing.
1055
00:42:11,121 --> 00:42:12,439
It must've been something!
1056
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,359
And what's that?
1057
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:15,399
What?
1058
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,599
That piece of paper, that
note he handed to you.
1059
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,719
I'm sure we're all
dying to find out
1060
00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:22,000
what was written in that.
1061
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:24,440
Well?
1062
00:42:24,441 --> 00:42:26,919
No, no, no, it's
nothing to do with me.
1063
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,720
Well, it must be to do with
you, because you wrote it!
1064
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,200
I said...
1065
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:36,559
I was just saying that
1066
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:40,199
britain's most prolific
serial killer isn't nilsen.
1067
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,839
Really?
1068
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,480
No, it's Peter dinsdale.
1069
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,839
Dinsdale was convicted of
manslaughter, not murder.
1070
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,399
He killed 26 people.
1071
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:51,879
Are you telling me
that doesn't count?
1072
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,799
Not at all, but dinsdale
was an arsonist.
1073
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,119
The deaths were a
byproduct of the fire.
1074
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,479
He did not set
out to kill people.
1075
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,839
Which is why it took
so long to catch him.
1076
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,679
The investigations
concentrated on the victims
1077
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,679
and who wanted them dead,
1078
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,159
rather than the fire itself.
1079
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,479
Yeah, and some of them
were deemed accidental,
1080
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,359
and they were not
linked for years.
1081
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:13,880
But the point is...
1082
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,639
The point is this
is not the time
1083
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,600
nor the place for
this discussion.
1084
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:24,600
Sit down.
1085
00:43:25,720 --> 00:43:27,359
I apologise, ladies
and gentlemen.
1086
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,280
Now, where were we?
1087
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:34,039
You see, the investigations
focused on the victims
1088
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,959
and who wanted them dead,
rather than on the fire itself.
1089
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,879
The problem was that dinsdale
1090
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,039
wasn't targeting
anyone in particular.
1091
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:43,959
It wasn't about the victims.
1092
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,759
It was about the fire and
what happened afterwards.
1093
00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:47,600
Afterwards?
1094
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:48,400
Yeah.
1095
00:43:48,401 --> 00:43:50,119
He'd turn up when
the fire engines arrived
1096
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,999
and he'd stand in the crowd
and watch them fight the Blaze.
1097
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,039
He wanted to be a
part of it, you see.
1098
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,559
He wanted to be involved.
1099
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,039
And that's partly what drove him
1100
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,960
to set the fires
in the first place.
1101
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:02,880
Thank you.
1102
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,160
Very much.
1103
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:14,839
A serial arsonist?
1104
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:15,919
[Gerry] It's a possibility.
1105
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,039
We found seven similar
fires in pubs and clubs
1106
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,679
before and after the union fire.
1107
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:22,959
But you don't have evidence
1108
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,879
connecting them
to any individual?
1109
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:25,720
Not yet.
1110
00:44:25,721 --> 00:44:27,319
We'd have to start
again from scratch,
1111
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,159
look at things in a
completely different way.
1112
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:30,879
Yeah, but you don't
have any evidence.
1113
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:32,159
We've just told you.
1114
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:33,559
I don't mean a theory, Brian.
1115
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,399
I mean something
that we can prove.
1116
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,719
We've already
got a solid suspect.
1117
00:44:37,720 --> 00:44:40,079
Well, how did Russell
get that gun into the union?
1118
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,600
I don't know, Jack,
we'll just have to find out.
1119
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:52,440
[Tracey] Hello?
1120
00:44:52,441 --> 00:44:53,879
Mrs. Wilde?
1121
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:54,720
[Tracey] Yeah?
1122
00:44:54,721 --> 00:44:56,079
Detective
superintendent Pullman,
1123
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,159
I'd like a word with
you, if that's all right.
1124
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,240
[Door buzzer blares]
1125
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,639
You took your time.
1126
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:07,480
Excuse me?
1127
00:45:07,481 --> 00:45:08,999
I don't know what's
going on upstairs,
1128
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,359
but there are people coming
and going all night, playing-
1129
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:12,599
it's not about
upstairs, Mrs. Wilde,
1130
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,039
it's about your
daughter, Hailey.
1131
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,999
We're re-investigating
the fire at the union club,
1132
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:17,399
and I was wondering
if I could have
1133
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,760
a few minutes of your time.
1134
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:24,960
Thank you.
1135
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:28,599
Hailey had been in some trouble,
1136
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,519
but no more than
any others round here.
1137
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,719
The difference was she
wanted to do something about it.
1138
00:45:34,720 --> 00:45:36,599
She was going to
go back to college.
1139
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:37,879
The job was just
to tide her over,
1140
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,320
just weekends to
earn some money.
1141
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:42,679
She wanted to
make a clean start,
1142
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:46,079
but she never got the chance.
1143
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:47,959
Did she ever talk
to you about the job?
1144
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:49,799
People she met,
anything like that?
1145
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:50,800
Sometimes.
1146
00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:55,319
She said it could get pretty
rowdy in there some nights.
1147
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,599
Did she ever mention a man
called Russell, Stuart Russell?
1148
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:00,199
Don't think so.
1149
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:01,200
Who is he?
1150
00:46:01,201 --> 00:46:02,399
He was an associate
of Mark Johnson's.
1151
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,159
He used to drink in the
union from time to time.
1152
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,559
She probably would've seen him.
1153
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,679
Don't remember the name.
1154
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,600
Well, I appreciate
your time, Mrs. Wilde.
1155
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,640
Your child doesn't
die before you.
1156
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:18,800
They don't do it.
1157
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:20,960
It's unnatural.
1158
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,520
I'm sorry for your loss.
1159
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:32,799
Did you say
weekends, Mrs. Wilde?
1160
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:33,600
Hailey only worked weekends?
1161
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:34,520
Yeah, that's right.
1162
00:46:34,521 --> 00:46:35,879
But the fire was on a Thursday.
1163
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:37,680
She wasn't even
meant to be there.
1164
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,719
She wasn't working that
night, but she got a call,
1165
00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:41,919
they needed her to come in.
1166
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:43,079
Who called, do you know?
1167
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,719
Dawn.
1168
00:46:44,720 --> 00:46:45,879
Dawn abbott.
1169
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:47,440
She was a friend of Hailey's.
1170
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:49,640
She got her the job.
1171
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,239
Jojo was sick.
1172
00:46:52,240 --> 00:46:53,240
Who's jojo?
1173
00:46:53,241 --> 00:46:54,839
Dawn's son.
1174
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,760
His name's John, but
everybody's always called him jojo.
1175
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,680
Dawn needed Hailey
to work her shift.
1176
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,440
We seem to have a
little problem, dawn.
1177
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:12,520
What's that?
1178
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:14,759
You haven't told us
everything you know.
1179
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:18,959
In fact, you've left out
some rather salient details.
1180
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,319
- Well, like what?
- Like you were supposed to be
1181
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:21,719
working the night of the fire,
1182
00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:23,519
like it was supposed to
be you behind that bar,
1183
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:24,400
not Hailey wilde.
1184
00:47:24,401 --> 00:47:26,479
I didn't know anything
about the fire, I swear I didn't.
1185
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,039
No, but you knew something
was gonna happen, didn't you?
1186
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,040
Because Stuart Russell asked you
1187
00:47:29,041 --> 00:47:31,199
to take a gun into the club.
1188
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:32,200
Didn't he?
1189
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,439
Come on, it's the only way
1190
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:37,959
he could've got a
weapon in there.
1191
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,160
He needed someone on the
inside, and that someone was you.
1192
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,199
Look.
1193
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:45,280
Mark was always wary.
1194
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:47,199
He knew there
were plenty of people
1195
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:48,040
who'd take a swing at him,
1196
00:47:48,041 --> 00:47:49,480
or worse if they had a chance.
1197
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,359
I brought the gun in,
I was on the inside.
1198
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:57,440
How far inside?
1199
00:47:58,400 --> 00:47:59,240
Did you know about Ross,
1200
00:47:59,241 --> 00:48:01,039
did you know that Danny
and Carl had paid him off?
1201
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:01,880
It was obvious when he said
1202
00:48:01,881 --> 00:48:04,319
all his stuff was
still in the room.
1203
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:05,439
They set the fire
1204
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,519
and tried to make it
look like an accident.
1205
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:08,520
No.
1206
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:11,000
What?
1207
00:48:11,001 --> 00:48:13,079
Danny and Carl
Johnson didn't set that fire.
1208
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:14,639
You've been pushing
us in that direction,
1209
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:15,799
but that's not what happened.
1210
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,320
What have you got against them?
1211
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:20,560
But it's not that,
though, is it?
1212
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,080
It's what they've got of yours.
1213
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,400
It's about your son, jojo.
1214
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,000
They'll just use him
up and spit him out.
1215
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,879
He doesn't understand that.
1216
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,199
He thinks it's exciting.
1217
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:40,440
He thinks he's a big man.
1218
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:43,919
But he's just a
boy, that's all he is.
1219
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,959
So, that's why you
decided to come forward.
1220
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,959
You believe that Danny
and Carl are guilty,
1221
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,199
and you thought if
we found that out,
1222
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,919
then jojo would have to
find a new line of work.
1223
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:54,920
He doesn't listen to me,
1224
00:48:54,921 --> 00:48:57,319
I try, but he doesn't
hear what I'm saying.
1225
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:58,920
And you thought
we'd should louder.
1226
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,400
That's not what we're here for.
1227
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:08,959
They weren't yours, were they?
1228
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,359
The drugs, the
reason you're in here.
1229
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:12,360
They were jojo's.
1230
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,759
You did all this for him.
1231
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:16,760
He's my son.
1232
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:20,720
I'm his mother, I'm
meant to protect him.
1233
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,159
Hi, Jack, can you and Brian
1234
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:28,879
get over to Stuart
Russell's place
1235
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,679
and make sure he doesn't
go anywhere until I arrive?
1236
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,039
Yeah, and get Gerry
to meet us there, too.
1237
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:35,040
Cheers, bye.
1238

As we explained,

we're waiting for detective
superintendent Pullman.
1241
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:43,960
Yeah, well, you
really didn't need
1242
00:49:43,961 --> 00:49:45,119
to come upstairs with me.
1243
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:46,759
We're under strict instructions
1244

You all right?
1249
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,200
We're upstairs with Russell.
1250
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:12,639
Where's the kitchen?
1251
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:13,679
Through there.
1252
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:14,719
I'll put the kettle on, shall I?
1253
00:50:14,720 --> 00:50:15,759
Oh, good lad.
1254
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:16,959
- I'll have tea.
- All right.
1255
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:18,199

a sugar this time.
1256

I really appreciate
you coming in.

I'm happy to help.
1288
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,199
We've been looking
through your notes.
1289
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,279
Were they of any use to you?
1290
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:27,719
Very interesting.
1291
00:52:27,720 --> 00:52:28,720
Good, good.
1292
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,320
So, how's the
investigation going?
1293
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,239
It's taken an unexpected turn,
1294
00:52:34,240 --> 00:52:36,719
so we were rather hoping
we could pick your brains.
1295
00:52:36,720 --> 00:52:38,279
Anything I can do.
1296
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,839
We think we've been
looking at this the wrong way.
1297
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,519
At the victims instead
of at the fire itself.
1298
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,199
We found seven similar fires.
1299
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,679
We think we might be
dealing with a serial arsonist.
1300
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,519
Someone who's been active
for two decades or more,
1301
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,039
but that's not really
our area of expertise.
1302
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,079
Which is why we called you.
1303
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,439
Arson is a very
specialised crime.
1304
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:00,440
Exactly.
1305
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,279
So, we thought you
might be able to give us
1306
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:04,719
some kind of a handle on it.
1307
00:53:04,720 --> 00:53:06,479
Use your years of experience
1308
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,559
and tell us about
the type of person
1309
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:09,800
we should be looking for.
1310
00:53:10,720 --> 00:53:14,639
Well, first of all,
he'd be meticulous.
1311
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:15,839
A careful planner.
1312
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:16,720
Obsessive?
1313
00:53:16,721 --> 00:53:18,999
Others might say
that, but I wouldn't.
1314
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,119
He'd be intelligent.
1315
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:21,839
Well, he'd have to be to
get away with it for so long,
1316
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,399
and of course, he'd
have to know about fires.
1317
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:25,440
How to set them.
1318
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:27,360
How they burn.
1319
00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:30,999
I mean, using that
candle and condom trick
1320
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,719
wasn't very easy, I tried it.
1321
00:53:32,720 --> 00:53:34,239
He'd be an expert, all right.
1322
00:53:34,240 --> 00:53:36,959
He'd have to feel at home
with fire, comfortable with it.
1323
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:37,760
That's right.
1324
00:53:37,761 --> 00:53:39,919
What about his motivation?
1325
00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:41,399
What would drive him?
1326
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:42,280
That's hard to say.
1327
00:53:42,281 --> 00:53:44,159
Excitement, the thrill?
1328
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:45,999
Well, I suppose it's possible.
1329
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,240
Perhaps he was
desperate to feel important.
1330
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:51,759
Important?
1331
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:52,600
I don't...
1332

We what?
1334
00:53:55,641 --> 00:53:58,479
That was the slogan of
four American firefighters
1335
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,879
who were found guilty of arson.
1336
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:02,639
They'd light the fires,
then wait for the call,
1337
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:03,799
and come put them out.
1338
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,439
They wanted to be
the centre of the action,
1339
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:06,759
centre of attention.
1340
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,640

00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,199

Me?
1344
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:18,680
You think that I...
1345
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:19,680
We know you did.
1346
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,480
The fires stopped
after you retired.
1347
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,119
But then we came
to you for help,
1348
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:28,080
so we were the
spark, weren't we?
1349
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,079
A serial arsonist.
1350
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:33,679
It could be anyone.
1351
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:34,799
No, it couldn't.
1352
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:36,719
It could only be somebody who
saw the names on that board.
1353
00:54:36,720 --> 00:54:39,279
Somebody who knew that
David swallow and Stuart Russell
1354
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:40,919
were part of our investigation.
1355
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,399
You were a fire investigator.
1356
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:44,479
But it wasn't enough.
1357
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,959
No, you wanted to turn
up and be in charge.
1358
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,479
You wanted everyone
to look at you.
1359
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,519
No.
1360
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:50,799
You had to be in
control, the top man,
1361
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:52,159
that's what made you excited.
1362
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:53,000
No, you're wrong.
1363
00:54:53,001 --> 00:54:54,199
You had to feel important.
1364
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:55,520
Feel important!
1365
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:04,400
I was!
1366
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:07,760

up to setting 63 fires.

00:55:20,481 --> 00:55:22,799
Yeah, including the
union club, of course.
1371
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,919
How did he know about
swallow and Russell?
1372
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,079
They weren't hard to find.
1373
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:29,799

Yes, sir.

Really?
1382
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:41,960

what I'm thinking.
