I recorded commander embleton

saying he was responsible

for Anthony kaye's death.

And do you have since
given that recording

to Anthony kaye's mother?

I thought we were
done with embleton.

I was there when you told him

he wasn't worthy
of your attention.

Mrs. Kaye deserves to
know the truth, Esther.

I'm not disputing that.

What is she going to
do with that recording?

She's going to make
one hell of a noise,

I know I would.

I need to get to work, I'm late.

Yeah, since you're just
about to lose your job

I should make the most of it.

It might not come to that.

You know it will.

[Sombre music]

How long have we got?

You make it sound
like a death sentence.

I'll stand by you, Brian,
whatever happens.

Don't leave me
in the dark again.

No more surprises.

[Newsreader]
Mr. Bunce was convicted

16 years ago of the
murder of his wife, Lauren.

But has always
pleaded his innocence.

[Scoffs] What con doesn't?

[Newsreader] Relied
heavily on the blood splatters

found on bunce's clothing,
which pathologists said

at the time was in
keeping with bunce

having carried out
the fatal stabbing.

No, no.

That wasn't the only
evidence we had on him,

I told, oh, bollocks!

[He groans]

[Newsreader] This
miscarriage of justice is seen-

miscarriage of justice.

I'll give you a
miscarriage of justice,

Scott bunce
getting out of prison!

[Sandra] Steffan king.

What's he got to do with it?

Three years after Lauren
bunce was murdered,

steffan king, the
notoriously violent leader

of bunce's ex gang,

was convicted of
stabbing his girlfriend.

What does that prove?

Yeah. Thank you, Brian.

Glad you could join us.

But he is worth
investigating, of course.

What is the point?

We know that bunce
murdered his wife.

And is now
officially a free man.

- Morning.
- Morning.

Detective superintendent
Sandra Pullman.

- Hi.
- Steve mcandrew, hello.

Hello, Mike!

Detective chief
inspector Fleming to you.

Oh, blimey.

Well, you know what they say,

those who can do,
those who can't-

[both] End up running the joint.

Brian Lane.

Hiya.

Yeah, Mike was
on the original case.

Yeah, back in the day.

Yeah, he was at the
local Nick at the time

and I got him assigned
to the investigation.

Mike also went on to investigate

and successfully prosecute
a number of the gang.

I've tracked down where
most of them are now,

but if you have any problems.

Cheers.

Mike is currently working
at special operations

but I thought it would be good
to hear about what happened

from those that were there.

At least Gerry won't be
the only one banging on

about bunce being guilty.

The evidence against
him was substantial.

What did I tell you?

Evidence which has
now been re-interpreted.

And that's what
we're going to do now.

Re-interpret the known facts.

[Gerry sighs]

[Sombre electronic music]

[Mike] Scott bunce
was reckoned to be

one of the best getaway
drivers in London.

But you have to
remember that the two years

leading up to this,
bunce and his wife

are struggling to
cope with the death

of their young lad, Joe.

[Gerry] Who was
killed in a hit and run.

Bunce hit the bottle hard,

and Joe's death was
probably the reason

why he wanted to go back
and work for his old gang,

Bury his head.

Yeah, but his wife
Lauren said no way.

And that led to a big row.

At 7:00 P.M. they go
to their local for a drink.

Lauren left the
pub at around 7:30

and picked up her
daughter, Lizzie,

who was staying
at a friend's house.

We talked to three people
who overheard bunce

say in the pub, "I'll bloody
kill her when I get home."

Which he did at about 9:15 P.M.

Yeah, but bunce claimed
that he found his wife

on the kitchen floor and
tried to resuscitate her.

And that's how he got the
aspirated blood on him, right?

At the time they thought
the blood spatters

came from when
Lauren was stabbed

but we now know
that the drops of blood

came out of her mouth as bunce

was trying to resuscitate her.

This is an expert's
theory, and that is all.

Bunce then said he
saw Lauren's killer

run out of the house.

But their neighbour,
Murray blaker

said he saw bunce
leave the house at 9:20?

Yep.

And he didn't see anyone else?

No, just bunce, covered in blood

and holding the
knife that killed her.

Bunce swore blind
that he saw someone

leaving the house that night.

But how come the
neighbour didn't see

anyone else coming
out of the house?

Brian and I are
gonna go to that house

and ask him that very question

and I would like you and Steve

to talk to steffan king.

Thank you, sir, cheers, Mike.

Right.

Okay Gerry, shotgun, my car.

Oh blimey, that
means I can't smoke!

You up for a drink later, Gerry?

Me? Up for a drink?

It's intravenous these days.

You still going down the bridge?

What, at over a
hundred quid a time?

Gotta be kidding.

How about you?

No, I'd rather watch
my grandson play.

I can just see you
on the touch line,

giving it all that.

Mr. Standing, your
carriage awaits.

I'll give you a bell.

Yeah.

Can't believe bunce's daughter

is still living in
the same house.

Not sure I'd wanna
live in the house

where I saw my father
murder my mother, would you?

Out with it, Brian.

Maybe we should get
a coffee or something.

[Sombre music]

[Sandra] There you go.

Ta.

Well?

Come on, Brian,

we've known each other
too long, what's wrong?

I've just been
thinking about Mark,

you know, my son.

All those wasted years.

When was the last
time you saw him?

Well, Esther still sees him.

Keeps in touch, you know.

But Mark and I...

I've just been thinking about

what there is to
come, that's all.

There has to be something more

than chasing the missing pieces

of an endless bloody Jigsaw.

[Sandra] Why don't
you go and see Mark?

Oh, it's not that easy.

Just say sorry, Brian.

Maybe that's the
piece that's missing.

[Tense music]

So, bunce's old gang
wanted him back, right?

But they must've
known it was Lauren

that was stopping him.

No, the gang had nothing
to do with Lauren's murder.

Look, look.

They have an argument
in the pub, right?

Lauren leaves, then
bunce calls the gang,

tells him he can't do it.

[Gerry] Thought you
were gonna be on my side.

Just bear with me
a minute, Gerry.

Bunce is the best
getaway driver in London,

but these guys
are serious players.

They want bunce,
nobody's gonna stop them.

Yeah, but listen, mate,

you didn't have to deal
with a 10-year-old Lizzie.

Terrified, she was.

Thought she didn't
actually witness it.

Well, it was good as.

She came downstairs
and saw her dad

standing over her mum
with a knife in his hand!

What, and she dialled 999, yeah?

Yeah, that's right.

Yeah, and they
played it in court.

Bloody horrible, it was.

You know, I'm convinced

the gang had
something to do with this.

What, and they sent
psycho steff round

to have a word?

Yeah, help her swear it,
to see it their way, yeah!

- No!
- Look, Gerry,

what made sense 16 years
ago doesn't work now, you know.

Bit like these poxy lifts.

Come on, last one to the
the top's a scabby donkey.

Sod that.

[Dramatic music]

[Gerry chuckles]

Lift's not working, mate.

Oh, sorry, mate.

[Tense electronic music]

[Gerry gasps]

You see,

staying hydrated,
that's the key.

Feel my face.

Do what?

- Feel my face, here.
- [Gerry cries out]

Never mind those, feel
my face. Feel that, feel that.

See? Smooth as a baby's
hydrated bum, that is.

Hello, boys, alright?
How are you?

There's a litre
and a half of water

in that face every day.

Yeah, well I'll have
mine with hops and yeast

if it's all the same to you.

Well, I'll give you this, Gerry.

Even though they've
re-evaluated the forensics,

I can still see why you went
for bunce as a murderer.

Very kind of you.

What number is it?

It's 916.

We went for
bunce, as you call it,

because he was and
still is guilty of murder.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

Oh, here we go,
there you are, go on.

Steff?

It's your old mate,
Gerry standing.

Steffan!

Tell you what,
pal, give us a bell

when you got a minute.

Who's the next port of call?

I don't know, how
many are there?

Here you go.

Cor.

Cor! Look, I know what this is.

This is keep Gerry
standing well out of the way.

Gerry, come on.

This is a legitimate
line of inquiry, okay?

It's a wild goose chase.

[Sandra] According
to the prison file,

she never once wrote or
visited her father in prison.

[Brian] Can you blame her?

As far as she was concerned

he murdered her mother.

I wonder how she'll feel
now he's been released.

The neighbor's in.

Can't you two read?

Well, being
journalists, I guess not.

Private? Property?

Murray blaker.

I've made it clear
to all the nationals,

if you want my
exclusive, you can just-

we're from ucos.

Unsolved crimes
and open case squad.

My name's Brian Lane.

This is detective
superintendent Pullman.

I thought you were press.

Well.

They've been harassing
us both for days now.

Well, either way,
Lizzie won't wanna talk.

You gave evidence
against Mr. Bunce.

I went to court.

Told them what I
saw, what I witnessed.

That defence barrister tried
to make me look like an idiot,

but I know what I saw.

She was a lovely woman Lauren.

What she saw in him...

Lizzie?

I'm Sandra Pullman,
I'm a police officer.

I know this is really
difficult for you.

But as you know, your
dad has won his appeal

and he's now being
released from prison.

As a consequence,
the investigation

into your mother's
murder has been reopened

-and I was just
wondering- -[Door creaks]

Why have they let him out?

My father is a murderer.

[Tense electronic music]

Lizzie, in the files it said

that you went to go and live

with your grandparents
for a while.

Is that right?

Yeah.

But I wanted to be here.

I know that must seem strange.

But when I was younger...

Mum was here, watching
me, looking over me.

I don't think that now.

She's not here now, I know that.

Just when I was a kid.

I felt the same
when my father died.

My grandmother's in a home now.

I try to see her as
much as I can, but...

Is your neighbour
always like this?

He's scared.

Of my dad.

Ever since dad destroyed

Mr. Blaker's prize
roses, it's been war.

When did this happen?

It was just after
we first moved here.

Mr. Blaker had these
really tall bushes.

Leylandii.

He refused to cut
them down, so...

My dad said, what's the
point of moving out here

if you can't see the
sun in the morning?

And he cut them down?

Well, he poured industrial
bleach in all the roots.

Killed nearly everything
in Mr. Blaker's garden.

What did you want to ask me?

The night that your
mother was killed.

Yeah. I told the
policeman everything then.

Nothing's changed.

Well, we know that night
that your mum and dad

had a big argument, in the pub.

Yeah.

At the time your father said

that he thought your mum
was seeing someone else.

Yeah, well he was wrong.

My mother would never
do anything like that.

My mum loved my
dad with all her heart.

So why do you
think he killed her?

After Joe died,
nothing was the same.

It was like everyone
stopped talking

and started shouting and crying.

[Murray] No, stay away from me!

You lying bastard!

Police! Police!

If you saw me,
how come you never

- saw the killer, eh?
- Help!

Just explain to me!

[Murray sobs]

Gerry, stay there!

Steve, get after him.

[Lizzie] What's going on?

Lizzie, go back inside.

Your father's come
back to murder me now.

Oh...

[Tense music]

Steve, you go that way.

Okay.

What did you get for making

the biggest mistake
of my life, huh?

Promotion?

Pay rise?

16 years of freedom?

You're out on a technicality
and well you know it.

Oh yeah, and there
was me thinking

the whole case
had been reopened.

Oh, it has!

It'll come to the
same conclusion!

Now Scott, you've
just been released.

Don't give us an excuse
to put you back inside.

You lot think I did
it no matter what!

That is not true,
we're already following

other lines of inquiry.

Oh yeah?

Who exactly?

We went to see steffan
king this morning.

You think psycho steff did it?

No, I don't.

'Cause I know you did it!

Gerry.

Now, why did you go for
your neighbour just now?

Do you think he killed Lauren?

If i'd've been
going after blaker,

I woulda got him, don't
you worry about that.

No, I wanted to speak to him

'cause I wanted to
know why he told you lot

all those years ago
that I was the only one

he saw running out of the house.

'Cause there
wasn't anybody else.

What the bloody hell do
you think I was doing, eh?

I come back from the pub,

find Lauren on
the kitchen floor,

try and save her,
and then decide

to make a run for it
only to change my mind

and come walking back
home, into the arms of PC plod?

It didn't make sense then

and it makes even
less sense now!

You stabbed her, you,
panicked, you ran, simple as.

I just done 16 years for
a crime I did not commit.

And I come home and I just
wanna speak to my daughter!

She saw you kill your wife!

So arrest me, then!

He blames me.

I know he does.

I told the police what I saw.

Lizzie, your father
was convicted

with the help of
forensic evidence,

not just because
of what you saw.

Yeah, forensic evidence
that turns out to be wrong!

Please.

You've gotta stop
him coming here.

Look, I'll put a call
in to the local station

and see if they can
keep an eye out,

how does that sound?

Yeah.

And I'll give you my card,

if you wanna call, anytime.

Alright?

Thanks.

[Brian] How is she?

She's terrified he's
gonna come back,

I'm gonna give her my number.

What did Mr. Blaker say?

Muttering on about
a Greek tragedy.

And the night of the murder?

He saw bunce, but nobody else.

[Sandra] What are
you two doing here?

Shouldn't you be asking
what bunce is doing here?

Did you catch up with him?

Yeah, still protesting
his innocence.

Because in the eyes of
the law, he is innocent.

Yeah, and we know
she wears a blindfold.

What about steffan king,
did you manage to speak with-

king's got nothing
to do with it!

That's a no, then, is it?

He wasn't in.

Sandra, look, you
don't understand.

Oh, I think I do.

My reputation's
on the line here.

No, Gerry, it's not.

Well, that's what it feels like.

That somehow all those
years ago, I got it wrong.

You're the officer who
was here that night.

You said you'd put
my father away forever,

that he'd never come back.

I should never have
grassed on him.

[Sombre music]

[He sobs]

[He groans]

Do you wanna take the bags in?

Yeah.

I'll bring in the cot.

- Thanks.
- Alright.

Mark?

Mark.

Mark!

Hey. Oh!

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

What are you doing?

Are you ignoring me?

I'm not.

Well, I was shouting,
could you not hear me?

Why are you here?

What's that? A cot?

Bloody hell, is Christina?

Does your mother know?

No one knows.

It's not been 12 weeks yet.

What, and you got
yourself a cot already?

Saw it on eBay.

Why are you wasting
your money on eBay?

We've still got your old
cot in the loft, I could-

what are you doing here?

I was just passing, you know.

Thought I'd call in, see
how you were doing.

Yeah well, we're fine.

Don't tell mum about the baby.

Why not?

Because I wanna tell her.

I'll give you a hand
to put those up-

I don't need a hand, thanks.

They can be tricky, those.

I haven't seen you in years.

Well, I'm here now.

Yeah, you are.

[Christine] Mark?
Who are you talking to?

No one.

[Neighbor] Gerry!

Hello, mate.

Someone's looking for you.

Yeah? Blonde or bailiff?

Said he'd come back later.

Cheers.

[Sombre music]

Nice cup of tea.

Or a nice cup of coffee.

Tea, coffee, coffee, tea.

[Chuckles] Gottle of geer.

Now, there's an idea.

[He chuckles]

There, nice gottle of
geer, nice gottle of geer.

[Phone beeps]

No, I didn't have an
accident six weeks ago

but somebody will if you
keep bloody texting me!

How'd they get my number?

Why am I talking to myself?

Getting like my dad.

"They're coming
to get me, Gerald,

they're coming to get me!"

[Doorbell rings]

Blimey. Maybe they are.

Oh.

What do you want?

Oh, hi! Don't mind
if I do, thanks a lot.

Hey.

Nice place you got here.

Brilliant.

How'd you get through the gate?

[Steve hums]

Oi! I'm talking.

Oh, sorry, what?

How'd you get through the gate?

Someone was going out
and I just slipped in, you know?

What time are you meeting Mike?

Didn't know you were invited.

Didn't know you
were into man ray.

Man ray, yeah.

Can't get enough of him. It.

I've got exactly the
same one at my place.

Have you?

Gerry, you were there at my
flat in Glasgow, remember?

Oh yeah!

[Both] Great minds, eh?

- Oh, blimey.
- Whoops.

I'll get myself a beer.

Good show.

[Gerry] Sit down,
make yourself at home.

Why didn't you phone me?

I went round to Mark's.

Mark? Our Mark?

Yeah, waste of bloody
time, it was and all.

What have you been saying now?

You're gonna be a grandmother.

But I never told you, right?

Well, we can't move
out of London now.

Who said we were?

Oh, this is heaven-sent.

It's Mark's baby, not
the second coming!

Besides, he made it quite plain

he wants nothing to do with me.

But this is our chance!

For what?

To be a proper family.

Did anyone say anything?

About you recording embleton?

No. Not yet.

Well, maybe
everything will be alright.

I want to be Nana.

Not granny, don't like granny.

And you can be popsie.

[He grunts]

[They laugh]

So.

What's the yard saying
about the bunce case?

How the high-profile
miscarriage of justice

is the last thing
they need right now.

Well, the change of expert
opinion is hardly their fault.

Oh!

Shot.

So, you think bunce is guilty?

Doesn't matter what I think.

The important thing
is that we're seen

to be doing what we're doing.

Crossing the t's
and dotting the i's,

letting the investigation
run its course.

That's got me.

Chances are,

they might find bunce
guilty all over again.

Another game?

[Mike] Oh yeah.

Thanks.

How can something you
absolutely know to be true

turn out not to be?

When my love swears
that she is made of truth,

I do believe her,
though I know she lies.

Yeah, but that's different!

You think you know
someone, you know?

You have absolute
faith, belief in them

and then one day they just...

That kind of thing
ever happen to you?

Do you remember when

prince Charles and
lady di got engaged?

They did a big interview, right,

and somebody said to them,
so are you really in love?

She said yes.

And he said, "whatever love is."

What, you're telling me
you've never been in love?

Me?

Yeah, hundreds of times,
least, I thought I was.

[Steve] Yeah, I
have, definitely.

Here we go, Mike!

Hi, Mike.

Steve, good to see you.

What can I get you?

Oh, no, my round.

No, let me get this,
what are you after?

Oh, pint of lager, cheers.

Oh.

You haven't been to
the gym, have you?

I've been playing fives
with Bob strickland.

Fives with Bobby?

Yeah, all the posh boys play it.

My old chief got me into it.

So that's how you get promotion!

As long as you let them win.

[They laugh]

Listen, good to be working
with you again, mate.

- Yeah, like old times, eh?
- Here you go, mate.

Ah, cheers.

So, how's it all going then?

Well, I've seen bunce.

Yeah, and?

Like a couple of caged animals.

Practically had
to tear them apart.

Same old Gerry standing.

You still married?

I can't remember
who I was with then.

No, there's probably
been a couple since.

[Steve] Same old Gerry standing.

Cheers, boys.

- Cheers, Mike.
- Cheers.

It's worked out fine.

Well, it's a copper's

Ah, these things happen.

Yeah, Steve's

Oh yeah.

Hmm.

He's gone missing?

Yeah, he's with

- his mother somewhere.
- [Telephone rings]

How's it going?

Well, got a few leads, you know.

Hello?

Gerry, where are the keys?

Brian, what are you
doing at the office?

In Lauren's handbag,
there was a set of keys.

Yeah, we know there
were a set of keys, Brian,

we didn't think
they were relevant.

So where are they?

How the bloody hell do I know?

Well, they're missing!

Somebody's taken them.

Brian, they
probably just got lost.

This is the met
we're talking about.

Well, either way, they're
supposed to be there

and they're bloody well not!

[Steve] What's he
on about? What keys?

We found a set of keys
in Lauren's handbag

and they couldn't be identified.

Now he thinks
they're are gonna be

the key to opening the case.

Here we go, boys,
one for the road.

- Great, cheers.
- Oh, look at that blonde.

Oh, yeah.

[Tense electronic music]

Dad!

Hello, son.

I told mum I didn't want you-

I know you don't want me to have

anything to do with you or
the baby, I understand that.

It's not just that,

you think you can just turn up

as if nothing happened.

Mark, I made one mistake!

I swore I wouldn't
have another drink

and hey, guess what, I'm human.

I succumbed.

It's not about that.

No, you're right, and
that's not why I'm here.

Do you have any idea
what kind of father you were?

Or failed to be?

I'm sure you're gonna
make a much better job of it.

I should bloody hope so.

Well, if it's any
consolation, son, so do I.

Alright?

Is that it? We all
best mates now?

Brian?

What the?

Meeting up behind
my back now, are we?

No, of course not, but
i'm really glad you're here.

You're the only one who is!

I want you two to
talk to each other.

Sort things out, come on.

He's just said
he's not interested

in doing any of that.

Brian.

Are you still in
possession of my lathe?

Is that really why you've come?

Well, yes!

It's mine and I need to use it.

It's not yours,
you gave it to me

when mum threatened to leave you

'cause you spent so
long in that bloody shed.

Did I hell!

Anyway, I need to use it.

And the bits, of course.

[He scoffs]

Oh, don't tell me
you've chucked them out!

I don't believe this.

Brian.

The lathe. Yes or no?

Oh, oh, here, come
on, you put this on.

And I'm so sorry, pet.

I really was hoping he
was gonna talk to you.

He was going on and on
about becoming a granddad.

So he did tell you.

Yes he did.

I wanted to be the one.

[Esther] He was so excited.

[Mark] When are you gonna
stop protecting him, mum?

He means well.

No he doesn't, he
just wants things

his own way, he always has!

It's my way or no way.

He's a stubborn old-

what the hell have
you done to my lathe?

It's not your lathe.
What's wrong with it?

It's not working, that's
what's wrong with it.

Have plugged it in?

What's it doing not plugged in?

What are you
trying to do, Brian?

I need to cut these keys.

What, and you
wanna use the lathe?

Well, if it was working

I might have half a chance.

You don't want the
lathe, bloody hell.

You need the strommen
for something like this.

Hey?

What, the strommen that
we gave you last Christmas?

You gave him a what?

If you want a proper job doing,

I'll go get it for ya.

Go on then.

But I've not got all day.

I don't believe you, Brian Lane.

Coming round here.

It's working, isn't it?

What is?

My son's talking to me.

Shouting at you more like.

I'll take what I can get.

I don't know what
game it is you're playing.

But I fully intend to be
a full-time grandparent,

with or without you.

Well, that's what I want.

Well then, tell him!

He's the one who needs to hear.

I keep trying, Esther.

Well try a bit harder.

Might be your last chance.

There we go.

What, have you changed
your mind now, have you?

Oh.

I've been a bloody awful father.

I was never there
when you needed me.

If I wasn't working I was drunk.

Or both at the same time.

And I'm deeply
ashamed about that.

Believe me, if I could turn
the clock back, I would.

I swear it, Mark.

I'm just asking you
for another chance.

I know I don't
deserve it, but...

Do you know how it
works? The strommen.

I suppose you plug
the plug in first, do you?

Bloody hell.

Come here.

[Tense electronic music]

[Bartender] 4 pound 20, please.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, would you
mind repeating that?

Your client has a recording
of commander embleton

saying what, exactly?

And you say she got
this from Brian Lane.

[Tool whirring]

[Mark] There you go.

Aye.

Not bad, considering.

What do you mean?

They're perfect.

Well, they will
be, if they work.

Where are they for?

They're part of a
murder investigation.

How unusual.

Your work coming
before everything else.

A man was wrongly accused.

I'm sure he was.

I'm sure you'll
catch whoever did it.

You solve everyone
else's problems, dad,

but never your own.

Win some, lose some.

Well, it's a start.

Good morning, governor?

Get over to the
Churchill estate,

steffan king was
attacked last night.

Ma'am.

Mr. Blaker.

[Door knocking]

Identity theft.

You can never be too careful.

Good morning.

Did you have a good night?

Yes.

Thank you.

The police were outside.

Yeah, good.

Could I have a word?

What's happened?

Let's go inside, shall we?

Thank you.

Lizzie, have you heard
from your father at all?

No.

Do you remember an
old gang member of his,

somebody called steffan king?

No.

They all came around for a while

but then my
grandparents made it clear

that they didn't want
nothing to do with them, so.

What's happened?

There's been an incident,

steffan king was
attacked last night.

And you think my father did it?

[Sandra] No, we have no idea.

Why else would you be here?

I knew they should
never have let him out.

I knew it, I told you.

Everything's all right, Lizzie,

the police are outside,
we're doing everything we can

- to find your father.
- [Telephone ringing]

Excuse me.

Gerry.

Yeah, it looks like
he was battered

with his own baseball bat.

Well, who do you think?

No, they're checking the cctv

but bunce was
definitely here last night

and I don't think he just
popped in for a cup of tea.

Okay, cheers. Bye.

It was him, wasn't it?

The police are looking for him.

Were you close to your dad?

To my dad? Yeah, I was.

So was I.

I loved him, but
when Joe died, he,

he didn't wanna know me.

He didn't wanna know anyone.

Well, grief can be like that.

Makes you say and do
things you don't really mean.

Will you stay with me?

I feel safer with you.

You'll be fine, Lizzie.

You didn't see
my dad that night.

The knife.

Blood.

The look on his face.

The noise coming
out of his mouth.

He's coming to get me.

I saw him.

He was right here.

He was standing over
mum, and I saw the blood,

it was all over his shirt.

His face, and I thought
was gonna kill me.

But when I opened
my eyes, he was gone.

Out the door.

And then I saw mum.

Mum.

- Alright, Lizzie.
- Mum! [Sobs]

It's okay, it's okay.

-Look I saw him, I
saw- -[Door clunking]

[Tense electronic music]

Lizzie?

- Go, go!
- No, Lizzie, wait!

Wait, I just wanna speak to you!

- Lizzie!
- Shit!

Lizzie, darling, I
ain't gonna hurt you.

Lizzie, please!

Shut the door!

I'm not gonna hurt you! Lizzie!

Lizzie, listen to me,
you've gotta believe me.

I am not the man you think I am.

Look, I've spent
the last 16 years

wishing I'd never let
her go home that night.

I was so stupid, so stubborn!

[Police officer] Can I
help you, Mr. Lane?

Mr. Lane?

[Scott] Lizzie, listen to me,

- you've gotta believe me!
- Sir?

I think bunce has
got in round the back.

- Get some backup!
- Will do, sir.

It's PC 6374, requiring backup.

Yeah, the bunce's household.

As soon as possible, over.

I don't blame you, Lizzie.

I never did.

It's all because of Joe.

If we hadn't let him go
out on his bike that day,

he'd never have
been hit by that car!

Scott?

[Scott gasps]

I'm with the police.

You just stay out of this!

I just want to talk.

I'm listening.

Not to you!

Scott, we're very
close to finding out

who killed your wife.

Bollocks you are.

Do you wanna go inside
for another 16 years?

I will if I have to.

What about Lizzie?

What about her?

Well, I know it can't
have been easy

not seeing her all that time.

Watching her grow up.

School, college, boyfriends.

Do you want another 16 years?

Do you have any
idea what it is like

to be locked up for
something you didn't do?

And have everyone you
ever knew, ever loved,

think that you are
capable of killing

the one person
who really knew you

and loved you with
all her heart, eh?

Lizzie is my little girl.

And she is all I've got.

-And i- -stop.

- Just want to talk to her.
- Stop, stop!

I can't imagine
what that was like.

Bloody awful.

But I do know what it is

to not be there when
your child needs you.

And no matter how old they
get, they always need you.

And I know this.

You need them back.

I didn't kill Lauren!

Lizzie, I tried to save her.

I saw someone
running from the house!

Scott.

I believe you.

And I promise you,

I'm gonna do everything
in my power to prove it.

[Sombre music]

[Robert] He must've
known he'd be seen.

Well, he's been
inside for 16 years.

Back then everything we did

wasn't being
watched and recorded.

Ooh. I bet the cctv in
the lift hasn't been seen.

Oh yeah.

What, there's cctv in the lift?

Yeah, they were
putting it in yesterday,

I'll give them a call.

Where's bunce now?

Being booked in.

Oh, that's a point.

Should I phone Mike and
see if he wants to sit in?

I'm meant to be
paying fives with him,

I'll call him to cancel,
tell him what we've got.

Oh, hello.

Here he is.

The hero of the hour.

[Steve] So how'd
you talk him down?

Oh, give over.

Here.

Oh, you found 'em!

No, cut some copies myself.

You're joking.

And guess what?

They don't fit.

Look, I told you
they weren't relevant.

Evidence doesn't go
missing without a good reason.

Why did you go around
to steffan king's flat?

I've told you, I wanted to
know if he'd killed Lauren.

But he wasn't in?

No.

The cuts and
bruises to your hands,

how were they caused?

Brick wall. My fists.

Self-inflicted, I've been
doing it for 16 years.

How did you know where he lived?

I made a few calls.

Had you always suspected

he was responsible
for Lauren's death?

No.

She would never have let him in.

So why did you go round, then?

Because Gerry standing told
me he was investigating him.

And I know you people
don't go to the trouble

of trying to nail a murder
conviction on someone

if you don't believe
they've done it.

How is psycho, by the way?

Unconscious but not critical.

So when he comes round,
I can walk out of here.

[Sandra] At the house,
you said you blamed Joe.

Why?

Well, I didn't
mean it like that.

When Joe was killed,

it tore me and Lauren to pieces.

His death ripped a hole in me

that has never gone
away and it never will.

Lauren too.

Yeah, people tried to help.

Family, friends. [Chuckles]

Even psycho did his best.

See, Mike was great, he...

He really seemed to understand

what me and Lauren
was going through.

He's one of the only
coppers I ever met

who I actually got on with.

Mike?

Mike Fleming?

Yeah, he was our
family liaison officer.

I mean, he did what
he could to help us but...

And he was, he was
always there for us.

Seven days a week, 24 hours.

[Tense music]

[He groans]

[He yells]

Mike!

Look.

Cctv from the lift.

Now you can't see his face,

but he's got a sports bag.

And these keys that Brian cut.

They wouldn't fit
in the front door

of your old flat,
I don't suppose?

You see, the problem I've got is

I hate to get it wrong.

No, I know it's only human.

But I really hate it.

And I trusted you.

I really got it wrong.

When one of our
own lies and cheats

like, ah, boys!

Lauren and I first met

after Joe had been
killed in a hit and run.

I was a young copper
trying to do my best

and we got close.

She was vulnerable and I...

It was deeply unprofessional,

but these things happen
and we fell in love.

I know I did.

After about a year,
she said no more.

And that hurt, but
what could I do?

And then six weeks
later, out of the blue,

she calls me and says,

please come round,
Mike, please, I need ya.

And that was the
night of the murder?

She and Scott had
gone to the pub,

had an argument and
she'd had enough of him

and suddenly she wanted me.

Is that what she told you

or is that what you assumed?

She told me she loved
me and I believed her.

When I went round to the house,

she was drinking and emotional

and I told her,

come with me,
just pack your bags,

but Lizzie was asleep upstairs

and she didn't wanna leave her.

So what'd you do, threaten her?

I never threatened her.

I thought I knew what was best.

I thought that Scott was
gonna come back and hurt her.

I wanted to help
her. Protect her.

And that's what
you failed to do.

I don't know how it happened.

How she was holding the knife.

I tried to get it off her.

She told me to get off.

And, I was trying to
get the knife off her.

I was holding the
handle and, and,

but she was
pulling it towards her

and it ended up, the knife
ended up in her stomach

and she stabbed herself.

And the blood...

And then Scott was
coming through the front door

and I ran to get my jacket.

So what bunce said
about coming home,

finding her, and
trying to save her

was all true.

I ran out the house
and he came after me.

Ran down the street
and through the alley.

Scott was chasing me,
but I was quicker, and,

I managed to get away.

To think I welcomed
you to the team.

I thought you'd be an
asset to the investigation.

It was an accident.

An accident that has
seen an innocent man

serve 16 years for a
crime he didn't commit.

[Sombre orchestral music]

Wait, wait!

Look.

I just wanted to
apologise to you

for what I did to your
garden all those years ago.

So,

you admit it was you?

Was that why?

Was that why you wouldn't admit

to seeing Mike Fleming
running out of my house

after he murdered Lauren?

I didn't see him.

But you did see me.

Look, Scott.

It was dark.

I told them what
I thought I saw.

Dad.

It's alright.

It's alright.

I'm so sorry.

It's not your fault,
it's not your fault.

It never was.

Come here.

I knew the keys were important.

He gave them to Lauren
a few months earlier

in the hope that she
would leave bunce

and go and live with him.

Why'd he bother
taking them back?

Nobody would've
known they were his.

Yeah, but he didn't reckon

with the superhero Brian Lane,

king of the key cutters!

[They laugh]

Brian, a word. You too, Sandra.

What?

Just say what you've got to say.

If it's all the same to you,

I think this would be
better dealt with in my office.

Brian, what's going
on? What's happened?

Tell them.

-I really don't
think- -just tell them!

Get it over with.

Brian recorded
commander embleton

saying he couldn't give a
damn about Anthony kaye

or the fact that he died in
custody the way that he did.

-And he- -i gave the tape

to Anthony kaye's mother.

Oh, bloody hell.

Brian, did you
understand what you were-

yes, I knew what I was doing.

Brian, why didn't
you talk to me?

I'm sorry.

But what's done is done

and I'm not sorry about that.

Mrs. Kaye had a right to know

what happened to her son.

Then you give me
no option, Brian.

You will leave this building

and you will no longer
be a member of ucos.

Fine.

Why didn't you investigate this

using proper police procedures?

And what would've happened?

There'd have been a long
drawn out internal inquiry.

And then somebody would've
said, "oh, what's the point?

Embleton's retired, let it go."

And Mrs. Kaye would
never have known.

But I would've known.

And I have to live with
that for the rest of my life.

And I've got enough
on my plate as it is,

thank you very much.

So do you intend to
stand by your evidence?

And give a witness statement

about what you heard
commander embleton say?

Yes.

That is my intention.

Clear your desk.
