I declare that Liz Jackson

is the duly elected
member of parliament

for this constituency.

Yes!

[Cheering and clapping]

2nd of may, 1997 should
have been the best day

of Ben ransley's life.

He was Liz Jackson's researcher

and he'd just seen her get
re-elected with a huge majority.

That was an incredible night.

The atmosphere
was just electric.

Not in my house.

Holly was teething,
we were on our knees.

So it was I as it happens.

Ben was killed roughly two hours

after the vote was announced

and he was found
under westminster bridge.

What was he doing there?

All we know for certain
is that he was punched,

broke his jaw and died
from a trauma to the head

as he hit the floor.

The original investigation
put it down to a robbery

but they couldn't
even raise a suspect.

There was nothing much to go on,

no cctv, no witnesses,
no forensics.

And there may have been
a nudge of political pressure

to have this one stay
out of the limelight.

What you mean the spin
doctors kept it out of the news?

[Danny] Well, the press
had plenty of other things

to talk about.

We won eurovision
the very next day.

Katrina and the waves.

Happy days.

The only real lead the
first inquiry had was this,

found in Ben's wallet.

But none of his friends,
family, or colleagues

could identify her.

Blimey! If I had a looker
like that in my wallet,

I'd want everyone
to know about it.

Which is exactly why you'd never

have a looker like that.

No one could find her

and so the case was put to rest.

Until last week.

A bank in Jersey contacted
Ben's mother to tell her

about a dormant
account in his name.

Opened with a cash deposit
of £40,000 two months

before he died and
untouched ever since.

Well, was he from
a wealthy family?

No, and as a researcher, he
would've been on about £18k.

So obviously the question is...

What was he doing
with £40k off-shore?

Gambler? Dealer?

He's a politician! Bent
like the rest of them!

Keep me posted.

I will.

This is outrageous!

He only got three
grand in interest!

Three grand in 16 years.

That's a yield of only 0.4% aer.

If he'd have bunged
this in a wrap-around isa

over the equivalent period

he'd be looking at
7 to 8% minimum.

Look at this, eh?

The nerve centre of
900 years of democracy.

All that time and
the lunatics are still

running the asylum.

Holly's studying
politics, you know.

She's give her
eye-teeth to be in there.

You'd let her go in
there with that mob?

Ben ransley was a key member

of Liz Jackson's campaign team.

What's she doing now?

Left parliament in 2003,

was a local
counsellor before that

now works for a housing co-op.

Back down to earth with a bump.

Hm, Jim Marshall, that was
Liz Jackson's senior strategist

at the time, he's still a big
beast behind the scenes.

Never been an mp but
has advised senior figures

in the cabinet

before setting up a
think tank which pursues

it's gradualist reforms to
free market economies.

Still got his snout
in the trough, then?

Yes, I think you'll
get on with Jim.

Why? Don't you
think I'd enjoy our free

and frank exchange about
supply side economics?

No, because he
asked us to meet here.

Ah ha ha ha!

Well, let's not keep
him waiting, eh?

[Rubs hands with glee]

I wasn't sure I
wanted to tell anyone

about this Jersey account.

You've done the right thing.

We know it can be difficult
for you, reopening the case.

If we can find out
what really happened,

it might help you
come to terms with..

Oh please!

Don't talk to me about closure.

I've had 16 years of people
telling me to move on,

get over it.

How are you meant to get
over the murder of your child?

Was it a surprise that
Ben kept this £40,000

as a secret from you?

Ben's father died at no
age, leaving just the two of us

and we love each other,
but you keep your privacy too.

Yeah, but it's,
it's a lot of money.

You sure he didn't
mention anything at all?

He'd left home,
had his own life.

I mean, he'd come
back some weekends,

still helped me out on jobs

but I have no idea where
this money came from.

And you didn't know the
girl from the photo either?

I walked in on him
once with a girl.

He was so embarrassed.

We didn't talk much about
personal things after that.

Were there any
names, girl's names

in his diaries?

The police looked, but...

It was the worst day.

Clearing his flat.

I never could go
through his things.

Boxes sat in the
garage for years.

Eventually, I gave
them to Eddie.

Eddie who?

Eddie Trenton,
his closest friend.

He's more likely
to know about girls,

everything.

There you go.

Cheers.

Sorry we had to meet in here.

No problem.

People think the
house is where it's at

but I've made more progress
over a pint and a pie in here

than a dozen fancy functions.

A far cry from liverpool.

Democracy belongs to us all

and I've earned my
place the hard way.

The miners' strike,
trade unions...

But you haven't come to hear
about my political odyssey,

have you?

You were close to them?

Yeah, well, we
worked side by side

for the best part of
what? Three years?

Now, there's Liz now.

Hi! Liz Jackson.

He walked into party hq
straight from university,

this lanky kid.

There was nothing to him,

a gust of wind
would've blown him over.

He started as a researcher,

running strategy
with Jim in no time.

So it was quite an
important job, then?

Yeah, we'd formulate
Liz's policy positions,

speeches, press
meetings, you name it.

Ben was young,

but he had a sophisticated
political instinct

which is a perfect match for
Jim's more robust approach.

We could do with
him on our side now.

You're standing again?

In 2015. Jim's kindly offered
to help me with my campaign,

even though he's a very
important person these days.

[Chortling]

Can I take you back to '97?

Um, why is this
investigation being reopened?

New evidence.

An offshore account with
a big chunk of money in it.

Doesn't sound like
Ben, are you sure it's his?

£40,000.

Now, would you have any
idea where that came from?

Liz is standing again.

Maybe the raking things
over could discredit her?

No, this isn't a smear.

The evidence has come
from a legitimate source.

Did Ben give any indication
that he was in trouble?

You know, drinking? Gambling?

Nah, wasn't that sort of kid.

So when did you first notice

that he'd left the
town hall that night?

We think the last
time was about 1.30

just after the totnes
results came in.

The last contact I had with him,

he hugged me and
he said "we've done it!"

And he said he thought I
was going to be a brilliant mp!

Did it sound like goodbye?

He did the same with me.

Folk were hugging
all night long.

So why did he
leave the town hall?

I wish we knew.

Ah! We have a
constituency q&A.

Of course!

But if there's anything
else we can do to help,

anything at all.

Thanks for your time.

Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Goodbye.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
We're going nowhere, son,

we've still got work to do.

Trenton communication,
promotes and protects the interests

of world-class brands
and current affairs.

The hell does that mean?

Someone swallowed
a bullshit pill.

Come on through!

You sure?

We've only been
waiting 70 minutes.

So you and Ben were
at university together?

Yes.

Well, we actually met in the
sand pit when we were two,

school together then read
economics at Manchester

before moving to London.

What exactly is it you do?

Ah, the full spectrum
of public relations.

Brand engagement,
corporate, digital

and strategic communications,

crisis management,
regulatory affairs.

Do you work with the government?

Business needs to
speak to legislators.

I provide the conduit.

You were very close to Ben

and yet you never met this girl?

Or knew of his
account in Jersey?

Not until orla told
me about it, no.

Any ideas why he had
all that money off-shore?

Do you know everything
about the financial affairs

of your mates?

Were there a lot of girls?

Well, yeah, he'd hook up
with someone if he needed to

but he wasn't in it
for the relationship.

Why would he have a
photo of this particular girl

in his wallet?

Well, who can tell?

But she wasn't
only in his wallet.

I found this.

Wasn't actually with Ben stuff.

He lent me a load
of books ages ago.

I forgot they were his.

I found them again at
the back of a bookshelf

when I was moving home in 2011.

That photo just popped out.

Did you take this to the police?

I only brought it in today
because I knew you were coming.

We've been looking
for this woman.

You should have handed it in!

I didn't know it was important!

The case was
closed, it's just a photo

Marshall and Jackson
couldn't shed any new light

on Ben's death, but
we stayed on at the pub.

All in the name of
plod, you understand.

Your commitment is admirable.

Ah, we just bought a few drinks

and loosened a few tongues.

And came away with enough gossip

to fuel a dozen investigations.

Good, any to fuel this one?

Well, nobody really
remembers Ben

but Eddie Trenton certainly
made a few enemies.

By doing what?

It may be old
fashioned jealousy.

He's a powerful
player, makes a heap,

the hacks are aggrieved.

Yeah, and a couple of them

definitely thought
he was a bit dodgy.

So we're talking corruption.

Well of course we are!

It's all snouts
in troughs, innit?

Well, we may be talking about

a bunch of boozed up
insiders making mischief but

he's a lobbyist, his best
friend worked for an mp.

Do you want me to dig into it?

Guv, come and
have a look at this.

See what she's wearing?

I preferred her other outfit.

No, not the fashion, bum
face, look what's written on it.

Look!

Just through there.

Thanks very much.

Alright?

Some place, innit?

Yeah.

Excuse me, Mr. Russell?

Yes. Hello.

Detective
superintendent Pullman.

This is my colleague,
Gerry standing.

How do you do.

I'm really sorry to
bother you Mr. Russell,

and we know it's a long shot,

but this lady is wearing
one of your company fleeces.

Do you recognise either of them?

Well, I don't know
him, but she's my wife.

Can we have a word with her?

Well, I haven't
seen her since 1997.

Her name's Hana, Hana keranovic.

And you're sure that
you don't know the man?

Because they seem
like quite close friends.

She had a lot of friends.

This one was killed on
the 2nd of may, 1997.

His name is Ben ransley

ransley?

Well, that's the caterers.

They do all our company events.

Ben used to work for
his mother sometimes.

So, maybe that's
where he met Hana.

When did you last see your wife?

On the morning of may 2nd.

She said she was
going into town shopping.

She never came back.

You reported her missing?

I didn't.

I assumed she'd gone
home, back to Bosnia.

Hold on, hold on!

Your beautiful wife disappears.

Anything could
have happened to her

and you did nothing about it?

She was much younger than me.

I knew she'd leave eventually.

And you're alright
with that arrangement?

Do you have an
address for her in Bosnia?

I never knew where she lived.

Her town was
destroyed in the war.

She didn't like to dwell on it.

Where did the two of you meet?

At a members' club in town.

And you've had no contact
with her since she disappeared?

Talk to Lukas klasnic.

He owns the club.

He's more likely than me
to know where she went.

Membership is £10,000 a year.

Even for the girls?

I run a convivial place
where powerful men can meet

suitable women who they
otherwise wouldn't have time

to encounter.

Tell me about Hana keranovic

Hana, was she a member?

She married Peter
Russell in 1996.

He's the owner of a
multi-million pound

engineering business.

One of our success stories.

How are they?

I was told, you
know where she is.

I haven't seen her
since she married.

I don't have much to
do with former members.

Hana must be at least 35
years younger than Russell.

Is that the usual
service you provide?

People like me

and Hana had nothing
when we came to the UK.

Money, family,
friends, security,

peace.

None.

But Hana had beauty.

If her parents wouldn't
have been murdered,

her country destroyed,

she wouldn't have
used her looks any more

than you have in your life.

Help me find her.

Russell doesn't even
know where she came from.

Kozarac, it's northwest Bosnia.

Do you have an address?

It's a small town.

Most of the people
were executed.

Would she go back?

Would you?

[Sounds of celebration]

♪ things can only get better ♪

I take it they're not
planning a second career

in light entertainment.

They just won an election,

they're entitled to
let their hair down.

Bunch of plums the lot of 'em.

Never had you down
as a old Tory, Gerry?

Me? I'm not anything
I just hate politicians.

So who'd you vote for then?

None of your business!

Come on, I'm interested.

Yeah, well, I'm not biting.

Politics and religion, as
my old mum used to say,

are off the table.

So is talking to a mardy jock

but I can't do anything
about that now.

How are we doing with Interpol?

Yeah, we're on to it.

And the husband?

Well, he claims that he was
in the house all that night,

making phone calls,

trying to find out what
happened to Hana.

We're chasing the phone company.

What about the TV footage?

Well, it all tallies with
what Jackson and Marshall

told us.

Yeah, Ben's in the
hall till just before

the totnes result and
then he drops out of sight.

I don't suppose Hana shows up?

No.

Yeah, well, I've got a
friend who might be able

to help you find her.

Max clement, twenty
years with the French police,

seven at serious and organised.

He's a UN war
crimes investigator

specialises in
former yugoslavia.

I'm sure his
mother's very proud,

but I don't need any
help thank you, sir.

The bosniak diaspora in
London clusters in willesden,

harrow, hounslow
and Whitechapel.

His money's on hounslow.

You've already spoken to him.

It's easy to hide there.

Plenty of shadow
work at the airport.

Max is flying in tomorrow
on other business.

You should meet.

This is my investigation, sir.

Yeah, well I don't
see much progress.

We are making progress.

I've been going
through Ben's finances.

There's nothing here
tells us much about Jersey,

but in the months
before his death,

he made a regular withdrawals
from an atm in Victoria.

So?

So it's not on his
route to work or home.

What's he doing there?

Right, now, the hole in
the wall used to be here.

Yeah, there were
six visits in February,

nine in march and April,

all at lunch time

and all taking around
50 quid out each time.

You see, I'd say he was gambling

but there's no bookies anywhere.

I just...

Hah hah! Mint me a
medal and call me Sherlock!

The perfect place to
bring yer bit of skirt.

You're the longest
serving member of staff.

I was just a
chambermaid in 1997.

But you had contact
with the guests?

Hm, sometimes.

Well, this couple were regulars.

They probably wouldn't
have stayed the night.

Lunchtime liaisons.

The sort of arrangement
the staff should remember.

No, I don't recognise.

His name was Ben ransley

and that's Hana keranovic.

I can take the photo?

I'm still friends with many of
the people who worked here

in those days.

So you've been here 18 years!

You never wanted to move?

I don't like change.

Here is fine.

Well, your English is very fine.

I'm married to an arsenal fan.

Oh, hard luck!

So where are you
from originally?

Bosnia.

Just like Hana.

I don't know this girl.

She knows.

Get ahold of Steve
and put a tail on her

when she leaves a tail?

No, no, no. I've got
somewhere to be tonight.

Tell her to start without you.

Yeah, Holly, look, can we talk
about this when I get home?

Don't freak, dad,
I'm only trying to help.

Dan, how are we doing
with Russel's alibi?

Yeah, the phone
records check out

and he was making
calls all through the night.

Hi Sandra!

Hello Holly.

I was just telling dad that I
wrote a special assignment

on the role of
lobbyists in democracy.

Your Eddie Trenton's
a piece of work.

You've spoken to
her about the case.

I broke into dad's laptop.

Holly, that was out of order.

Your password is holly95,

doesn't take a
criminal mastermind.

Holly!

Eddie got caught handing
out commons passes.

Is that bad?

He got away with it, but
it means he doesn't play

by the rules.

Which is interesting when we
learn about Liz Jackson's role

on the committee.

What committee?

Oh, Jackson sat on a
parliamentary committee

during her first term,

exploring the ethics
of the arms industry.

Both committees
are mega powerful.

Jackson would have had a hand

in the committee's final report.

With recommendations that
could cost businesses billions.

So, we know that Eddie is fly

and we now know that
Ben worked for an mp

who sits on an extremely
influential committee.

Oh we do, do we?

They've got to have
been up to something.

Okay, Holly, thank
you very much.

Bye bye!

I am so sorry.

I had no idea she'd
broken into the...

Can you prove
there's a connection

between Eddie and Ben on this?

No, but then I
don't think anyone...

Get me proof and
I might not slap you

with a data protection charge.

Jackson never climbed
the pole after '97 landslide.

Wouldn't follow the party line.

You can see it
in their speeches,

disappointed at the level of
entry for the minimum wage

and strongly
opposed to various...

Oi, oi, oi!

Is any of this
helping us find Hana?

Well, we can't afford
to ignore Ben's political

involvement here.

It's got nothing
to do with politics.

And the only involvement
we need to know

about is he was jumping
someone else's wife.

Everything's political,
Gerry, this car, your pension...

Don't push my buttons!

Well it's all related,
you've got to take notice,

you've got to have an
opinion about these things.

Shut up! There she is.

Right, you follow
her, give us that,

leave the keys.

I've already spoken to her.

I'll be fifty yards behind you.

Yeah, yeah!

[Dramatic upbeat music]

It's been a while, sorry.

Sorry.

[Indistinct]

Shit!

[Train engine roaring]

[Dramatic upbeat music]

What took you so long?

I'm not very good
at this kind of caper,

I'm more of you cerebral
type, know what I mean?

What's she up to?

Nothing.

And she's taking a
bleeding long time doing it.

Listen, listen, you can
carry on from here, can't you?

- What?
- I'm on a promise.

Hey, listen, pal,
this is a stake out.

You can't leave
me here on my own.

It's all right for you
cerebral types, innit?

You've got things
to think about.

I've got more physical urges.

Here, c'mon.

Go! Run!

Stay where you are!
Stay where you are!

No! No!

Tell me everything, marta.

Hana was a friend,

but I didn't know Ben till
she brought him to the hotel.

They were lovers.

They were planning to run away.

They'd been saving up.

And this was the
bank account in Jersey.

Did Hana's husband find out?

I don't know.

Where did she go after Ben died?

She lived with me.

I got her a job at the airport.

Where is she living now?

Hounslow?

What name is she using?

She didn't kill Ben!

She didn't come forward.

She was frightened.

Of what?

Please, I can't say anything.

Where is she now?

I don't know.

Marta's not giving us very
much, but this is her phone

so Hana's number will be on it.

Find it and then get onto
the networks, will you?

It'll take 14 days to process.

Just do it, Gerry.

Marta and Hana
have both seen war.

Hana saw her boyfriend murdered.

Marta would rather
die than give Hana up.

These women are tough.

Where did she go?

You think Hana was a spy?

Huh?

A honey trap.

Sent to seduce him

in order to gain access to
Jackson's parliamentary secrets.

He's having one of his moments.

It happens!

There was a lib dem
who had an affair

with his much younger
Russian researcher

and she wrote...

Alright, alright, thank
you, John le carre.

Guvnor,

why don't you have a
word with strickland's mate?

You did make the
hounslow connection.

C'mon boys, work.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

Taxi drivers have
changed for the better

since my last visit.

I'm not a taxi driver.

Then what have I done right

to deserve being met
by a beautiful woman?

I'm looking for a Bosnian
woman, Hana keranovic.

Is she a croat or a bosniak?

It makes a difference.

She's from kozarac.

Poor girl!

I did seven years in kozarac

and you think
you've seen it all.

Just a minute.

The serb army attacked
kozarac in may, 1990.

They shot people in their homes
and others who surrendered

were taken to a football stadium

where more of them were killed.

The rest of the villagers
were marched into the forest

separated by sex
and sent to the camp.

Keranovic, you
said her name was?

Yeah.

Wow, is that her whole family?

We're still finding bodies.

1,226 have been buried so
far, but hundreds are missing.

Hana was probably sent to
trnopolje concentration camp.

It's a miracle she got
to this country at all.

We traced her to hounslow
but she managed to get away.

Would she to go back home?

There is nothing there for her.

Where would she go?

If she escaped the camp
and managed it to come here

she's an expert at
slipping through the cracks.

But! But! The
community is close-knit.

Fancy something to eat?

I thought you had a meeting.

Rule of life.

Always embrace the unexpected.

[Indistinct]

[Jazz music]

[Greetings in Bosnian]

Bravo!

Thank you.

A kebab?

Aren't you supposed
to enjoy this

after several gallons of lager?

This is the finest
food you'll ever taste.

Will it help me find my suspect?

She's long gone.

Eat the kebab.

So why did you join
the war crimes unit?

I really love my work
with the French police

but... i needed
another challenge.

And there was this girl.

Did you hear of the
mariza vlasic case?

Yeah, yeah, vaguely.

Yeah, a bit like your
Hana, escaped the war,

built a real good life here.

She killed a man,
didn't she? Tortured him.

She was looking for
the Serbian commander

who burnt her village

and you know, she
didn't have to do it

but... but the horror
dragged her back.

I caught stojan
zupljanin years later.

Seeing him,
sentenced at the haig,

was the proudest
moment of my career.

People like Hana, they
have seen all that's worst.

Makes them tough.

It makes them survivors.

Killers?

What's your number?

[Suspenseful music]

Well, we may not
be able to find Hana

but we can ask
her to make contact.

Hana keranovic.

[Conversation in Bosnian]

These guys, they know everyone.

I assured them that you
meant Hana no harm.

She'll be in touch.

[ Mobile phone ringing]

Excuse me.

Yes, Gerry?

Peter Russell, who said
he hasn't been in touch

with Hana for 16 years,
texted her two days ago.

Peter mailed, "people
came to see him.

"Tell me if they come to you."

That's a text sent
from your wife

to her friend marta
that we had translated.

Why did you lie?

We've only been in
contact twice since she left.

Eight years ago, she emailed
me that she needed money.

I wired her a transfer.

Did you feel used?

I felt wanted.

That's nice.

Did you strike a similar
deal in '97 and ask for 40k?

But she'd never asked
for money before.

But you knew she was having
an affair with Ben ransley.

I mean, Hana was a
beautiful young woman.

You must have thought all
your christmases had come

at once when you married her.

And then Ben comes along,

regular hotel sessions,
hands all over her.

You've got this wrong!

He was going to steal her!

You had every right to kill him.

I never even met the guy.

Look, I know what it
meant when I married Hana.

I knew she'd need affection
from somebody of her own age.

This wasn't
affection, this was sex.

She was really brave.

I wanted to protect her.

You know exactly
what you wanted.

I told her that i'd
never stand in her way.

You bought her from a club!

That's enough!

I'm a mug.

There's no need to rub it in!

Where is she, Peter?

So you see the
worst of people in here

but the other 99.9% of
us, when we're in love,

all we want is our
partners happy and safe.

However much that may hurt.

[Knocking on door]

It's been like this for a while.

Nothing happening.

Got to be Hana,
though, hasn't it?

Some sort of message.

Is ds Pullman there?

Is that you, Hana?

I want to help you.

Then come in and talk to me.

I could have phoned
but I want you to see me,

know that you can trust me.

This isn't trust.

You're still hiding and I've
got your husband in custody.

He's not involved. Let him go.

I was there.

I saw the killer.

Corner of feeden place and
glenmore street in an hour.

Come alone.

She said to come alone.

She doesn't make the rules.

She knows what
you look like now.

She's totally paranoid.

Guvnor!

We'll be lucky.

[Phone ringing]

[Hana] I asked
you to come alone.

I see three of you at least.

There's another phone
box on crown street,

by the bridge.

Five minutes.

Where are we going?

Oi! Oi!

[Dramatic upbeat music]

If I'd have known we were going

to do this much running about,

i'd've brought my roller blades.

[Hana] You're still
not alone. Last chance.

And I mean it.
Keep walking east.

Wait here.

What?

[Dramatic upbeat music]

I didn't kill Ben.

I loved him.

Talk to me.

It was my fault.

I knew it was dangerous.

You were going to
leave your husband

and run away with Ben, yeah?

Straight after that
stupid election.

That night?

We should have left before

but he had to help his mp win.

Did you have enough
money to run away?

Ben said he had.

From where? Eddie?

I don't know this.

What was the danger, Hana?

Lukas, Lukas will kill
anyone who leaves him.

He rescues Balkan girls.

He trained us to
meet your ugly men.

Prostitution.

No, we make them fall in love.

No sex before marriage.

Hana!

[Sandra] Is that what
happened with Russell?

[Hana] For a year
I was telling him

my sad stories until
he'd do anything for me.

[Sandra] Why does
Lukas wants you to marry?

So we can pay our debt to him.

Lukas saved us.

He got us out of Bosnia,
bought our clothes, our food.

He gave us good life.

How much do you owe him?

It's forever.

Husbands, they're so rich,

they don't even
notice when we steal.

And if you don't pay?

[Sounds of shouting,
beating and crying]

How about if you fall in
love with someone else?

We were going to
meet under the bridge.

That was our place.

And then take the
night train to Paris

while everyone was celebrating.

Ben thought we'd be long gone.

But Lukas must've found out.

It must have been
one of his men.

Why? Did you recognise him?

No, but it had to be.

Can you give me a description?

I had to run away.

He'd been told to kill me too.

Okay, Hana, come
into the station with me.

Lukas will kill me!

Help me build a photo-fit.

I can't remember.

I try. All I see is Ben.

Okay. Well we can
help you with that

and we have
protection programmes.

It was Lukas!

[Sounds of beating and shouting]

Turns out your club is
more than just a place

to find a pretty girl.

Of course.

The members are
looking for a life partner.

It's amongst the most
significant decisions

they will ever make.

And how long did the girls
have to pay their dues to you?

I don't understand.

Are they ever free?

Have you found Hana?

Do you know Ben ransley?

He was killed on the
2nd of may in 1997.

Where were you that night?

I can't remember.

But you knew that Hana was
going to run away with him?

No, I don't know this.

Where were you?

It was 16 years ago!

Well, it was pretty memorable.

It was the night of
the general election.

I'll have a look at my diaries.

You do that.

I also want details of all
your employees at the time.

Girls, bodyguards, henchmen.

I don't have henchmen

what you beat the girls
up yourself, do you?

During the war, I rescued
over a hundred people

from villages and camps.

It doesn't make you their owner.

You didn't see the camps.

The west was too busy.

It was genocide.

The girls would be
dead without me.

I'm going to stop your scam.

They love me.

Marry doctors, lawyers,

police.

All of these people are
very good friends of mine.

Don't you dare threaten me.

Well, we'll just
have to interview

everyone who's ever
bleeding' worked for him.

Even if klasnic ordered the hit,

we'll never find the thug
who actually did it, will we?

Nah!

Hana's played us.

We know she was at the scene.

She's throwing us Lukas to
buy time plan a proper escape.

Where does she go now?

Okay. Let's think
this thing through.

She's been on the
run for 16 years.

First time she went
to marta for help.

She got a job,

false documents,

changed her name to Helen Smith.

Feel free to chip in any time

guv, we're checking
all the Helen smiths

in the hounslow area to
find out where she lives.

Yeah, and marta is
under surveillance.

Well she's not going to
go back there again, is she?

But she does need
help and money.

Last time she tapped Russell

and he's still soppy
about her and he's loaded.

Right, you two, get
on him straight away.

What, surveillance?

Yeah.

Excuse me! Isn't it about
time that Danny had a little go?

Can't I'm afraid.

Boss!

This is the final report
of the arms committee

Liz Jackson sat on.

Now, the industry had
been selling guns, tanks,

landmines to all sorts
of unsavoury regimes.

And this report was looking
into tightening export criteria

and punitive measures for
businesses who didn't behave.

Would've cost them
millions if implemented

but they weren't.

No.

By the time this
report came out,

the companies had
taken preemptive steps

to show that they were
on their best behaviour.

What? 'No need to regulate ours.

We're getting our own
house in order' kind of shit?

Liz Jackson worked
on this report.

It looks like it was
watered down.

Ben could have sold the inside
line to Eddie or anyone else.

Do you know what I
most admire about you

is your total commitment
for pissing up the wrong tree.

Now, have you've got
any evidence on this?

No, I thought not.

So, you can take my
place on surveillance.

No, no, no, no, I like this.

But it's all supposition!

Embrace the unexpected, Gerry.

You're with me, Dan.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

[Mumbles]

Ms Jackson?

Mr. Marshall?

Ah!

Detective
superintendent Pullman.

Did Ben ransley ever mention
a girl called Hana karanovic?

They were quite
heavily involved.

Oh well, even if
he did mention her,

we probably
didn't pay attention.

But you'd have noticed
if he was selling secrets.

What on earth are
you talking about?

Trading details of
your arms report.

He wouldn't.

This is a man's reputation.

You can't just sling muck.

He had 40k off-shore

and I've had a
belly full of people

making lazy accusations
about corruption in westminster.

A few bad apples fiddle
their expenses and...

More than a few.

Was the report watered down?

Reports are always changed.

It's part of the process.

There's no conspiracy here.

What's your opinion
of Eddie Trenton?

Nothing against him personally,

but lobbyists are the
single biggest threat

to democracy that we face.

Because of the way they
seek to influence policy.

Yes, but that
didn't happen here.

Ben did have access
to the arms report.

Of course! But we'd
have noticed if anything...

You didn't notice that
he was having an affair

with Hana.

The report's an irrelevance.

It's big business.

Theoretically, he
could have leaked it.

Totally out of character.

But Eddie?

[Gerry] This is
well out of order.

Danny could have done
this golden bollocks.

[Steve] You're a right
little ray of sunshine.

Look, I had plans
to be somewhere

wrapped up nice
and warm and furry

not sat here doing
unwanted overtime.

Well, stop grumbling
and do something about it.

I've done 60 hours
this week already!

And I did the last
two Saturdays.

Do you still pay
your union dues?

No. I'm retired.

Yeah, well until you do,
you can stop moaning.

I want your
client list from '96.

I'll be with you in a minute.

I'm afraid that's confidential
corporate information.

Did you represent
arms companies?

I refer you to my
previous answer.

As you know, we're
keen to establish how Ben

got £40,000 in a secret account.

Was it a payment from you?

I am an expert at
exerting influence

through legitimate channels.

Does that mean you did
represent arms companies?

My strategies are
highly effective.

I've never had to play dirty.

What about the time you
had those commons passes?

Now that was a misunderstanding

all the same, must've
been tempting.

Having a best friend so
close to a significant report.

As soon as we knew we were
compromised, I ceased contact.

But the report was leaked
to the arms company.

I have never worked with arms!

There are plenty of
companies that do

and 10 other mps
on the committees!

Now.

If you think the
report was skewed

I'm sure there are no end of
doors you can go and knock on.

It had nothing to
do with Ben or me.

[Gerry] Guvnor?

Eddie's hiding behind
client confidentiality.

Has anyone checked his alibi?

He was with some
girlfriend at a hotel.

Okay. Well, let's see
what she has to say now.

What's happening your end?

Nothing!

He left his office at 6:00,

went to a local Chinese,

came back to his office

and now he's up there all
alone with his precision tools.

Hang on in there.

I'm sending over the
next shift in four hours

four!

If Hana doesn't show up,

we'll bring Russell in tomorrow.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

Gerry.

Bit late for a
delivery, ain't it?

Yeah.

Hey!

Oi!

[Dramatic upbeat music]

Gerry!

Shit!

Thank you.

Doctors have induced a
coma but it's too early to say

if he'll come around.

Do you think he
knows who killed Ben?

Do you suspect Lukas?

Whoever it is may try again

to make sure no one gets access.

Boss, this is a sideshow.

Lukas attacked him
because he spoke out of turn,

because he brought
us to his door.

He won't come back.

We should concentrate
on the report,

Eddie and the Jersey account.

Well, Trenton's alibi stands up.

His former girlfriend is
sticking by her statement.

She says she was in a hotel
with him in surrey that night.

They could be paying her off.

Have you spoken to the hotel?

Yeah, they definitely
booked in and when he left,

he paid by credit card.

He's a clever man, he
knows how to cover his tracks.

But then he skips back to London

and kills his best
friend, I mean..

Yeah, it's a possibility.
Check motorway cctv

and also have another look
at the election night footage.

See if he shows up there.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

Hi!

Shit!

Time for you to come in, Hana.

Will Peter be all right?

We hope so.

[Whispers] I'm so
sorry, I'm so sorry.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

[Door opens]

Is Lukas arrested?

[Door closing]

He didn't do it.

Hah, you're scared of him too.

I want you to tell me
what you saw that night.

It was a big risk
for me to help you

and you done nothing!

And now I need
you to help me again.

Tell me what you saw.

It was Lukas!!

God!

Hana, look, I do understand
why you won't trust anyone,

I do,

but if that's all
you're going to say

then I guess we'll never
have justice for Ben.

You say you're not
going to help me,

well I'm certainly
not going to stop you.

So,

you're free to go

no offence, pal,
but she's losing it.

Nah, she's an only child.

Got strange sense of humour.

[Door closes]

I lost my father when I was 14.

It shaped my life.

I can't begin to imagine
what you've been through

but I really need you to give
me a description of the man.

Hair, size, clothes, anything!

All right.

Okay.

Can you at least tell me if Ben

ever mentioned doing
work for arms companies?

He never talked about his job.

Wouldn't even introduce
me to his friends.

So you never met
Marshall or Liz Jackson?

Or Eddie or anyone.

To be safe, we kept secret.

What about the bank
account in Jersey?

There's a lot of money in it.

Ben was always
worrying about the money.

To me didn't matter.

But yeah, Ben
wanted enough money

to go away.

But he never told you
where he got it from

or where it was?

I remember he was
always travelling for work.

Nottingham, Blackpool, Jersey.

He went to Jersey with work?

I suppose, yeah.

Ask marshalle went with him.

Marshall, not Eddie?

Eddie?

Do you think Eddie killed Ben?

Ben is his best friend.

Let's go back to that night.

You were meeting with Ben

and then you were
going to run away.

Why the bridge?

It's where we
had our first kiss.

I was so happy.

I was free.

Oh my god.

I see the man.

He was over Ben.

His shirt was ripped and

there was blood

he saw me.

I thought he's
gonna kill me too.

I ran away.

I remember, I don't
want to remember.

All I see is Ben lying there.

There was something red.

There was something red.

[Pub chatter and laughter]

Look

thank god you're here,

this mob have had me cornered
that long I'm growing a beard!

Price of popularity.

Just a few questions.

Happy to help, can
I get you a drink?

When did you go
to Jersey with Ben?

Jersey? We travelled a lot.

This will be the trip
where you put £40,000

into his off-shore account.

Ring any bells?

Well, you've lost me.

Perhaps you remember this lady?

[Dramatic upbeat music]

You've arrested me on
the word of a prostitute

who's been on the
run for 16 years.

Why didn't you tell us
about your trip to Jersey

with Ben?

Who said I went to Jersey?

Don't worry.

We'll have a look at
your bank accounts,

diaries, passenger manifests...

I can't take this seriously.

You were taking money
from arms companies.

Ben found out and
you tried to buy him

off in Jersey with £40,000.

Then what?

You best bloody know what
you're doing here, detective.

Thin ice.

We have footage
from the town hall

you were there all night.

Very prominent.

Until the time you disappear
around the time of Ben's death.

Where were you?

You're asking me to
account for my movements

at a party 16 years ago?

I'll help you piece
it together, shall I?

That night Ben threatened
you in some way.

He was going to
report you to the party

or to the papers, either
way your career's finished.

Tell me if I'm getting warm.

This is ridiculous.

Ben was killed under
westminster bridge,

five minutes from the hall.

Easy for you to
get there and back

without being noticed,

except you were noticed.

'Cause we have a witness
who saw you under the bridge.

Oh, there you are again

back at the town hall,
wearing a different shirt.

I don't think you two know
who you're dealing with.

He was like a son to you.

What was it like being
covered in his blood?

That's enough! You're
bang out of order!

We know you did it, Jim.

And the moment we start
looking at all this in detail

the rest will just
fall into place.

It always does with
this sort of crime.

You didn't know you were
going to kill him, did you?

It was heat of the moment.

So you would have left a trail.

Come on, Jim.

You've been carrying
the guilt around for years,

set yourself free.

He was happy enough to
take my money in Jersey

but then he changed his tune.

He got all sanctimonious.

[Ben] Tell them
tomorrow morning,

everything you've done

or I'll tell them for you.

It's all part of the
world we're in.

I haven't done nothing wrong.

I tried to talk to him
seriously about politics,

but he didn't understand!

Ben! Wait!

I've said what I'm going to say

just listen to
me, you're stupid,

you'll regret what you're doing.

No, I want to make a fresh start

we'd been out of
power for 18 years,

we lost four elections.

Our time has come and
I wanted to be part of it

yeah, well, I don't!

[Dramatic upbeat music]

I didn't mean to hurt him.

[Dramatic upbeat music]

She's here.

Hello, orla.

I'm Hana.

I loved your son.

This is our child.

He's called Ben.

I hope you don't mind.

Hi. [Indistinct]

Hi.

[Crying]

[Tense gentle music]

So this villain's
hanging in mid air, right?

On this rope that is made
out of sheets and towels

and all that.

And there he is with
his meat and two veg

flapping all over the
place for the world to see,

and I shout up to him, I go,

"oi!

[All together] "You won't
get much swag in that sack!"

Oh, you've heard it.

The charm is in
its repetition, Gerry.

Everybody, this is Max clement.

Sandra, you know. And...

Yeah, Gerry standing.

Hiya

- hi, Steve mcandrew.
- Nice to meet you.

Danny gryphon.

Hi.

So you got a result?

Oh, we always get a result.

That's what I heard.

Crack unit.

Ah, it's nothing to do with us.

I blame the management.

Was Eddie Trenton involved?

Not with the arms
report, no, he's clean

oh good.

Because I've got a friend

with a daughter doing
an internship there.

Wouldn't want her
to keep bad company.

Glad we could be of assistance.

Sandra, Max wants a word.

Yeah, thank you.

Yeah, I wanted to ask if I
could talk to your witness, Hana.

We're still investigating
the massacre at kozarac

and this testimony
could be significant.

Well, I'll speak to her

and see if she's willing
to be interviewed.

I'd appreciate that.

Why don't you stick around?

We're going for
something to eat.

Yeah, Danny's gonna break
the padlock on his wallet

or face a data
protection charge,

you don't want to miss that.

If you don't mind?

Where are we going?

Bombay bhuna!

Why don't we try
somewhere different?

Like what?

A kebab?

Kebab?

No! We know what we like,

and we like what we know.

Listen, I doubt if you
can get a good jalfrezi

where you come from.

A what?

It's a traditional English dish.
