The target of the 5th of September ambush
was a protected witness.

John Thomas Hunter.

DI Denton, I'm arresting you
for conspiracy to murder a protected witness.

DS Akers was the person closest
to the witness.

Trusted by him.

You two always used to end up side by side.

I'd rather not investigate the death
of a colleague. I like keeping a distance.

On the night of the ambush, she called me.

Why'd you hide it?

Rich and I were involved behind Jayne's back.

Looks like Jayne Akers was on
the receiving end of a substantial payment.

- How substantial?
- Upwards of 50 grand.

Nurse...

Who is that man?

The records show that Superintendent Hastings
is in considerable financial difficulties.

- I'd like you to carry on.
- I'm very grateful, sir. Thank you, sir.

I think the fewer people know about
your situation the better.

Don't you see how I've been set up?

The only person
I told about the operation was Mike Dryden.

On the night of the ambush,
this officer caused the rota to be changed.

Has the Deputy Chief Constable
a statement to make

about the allegation
of his speeding offence?

My wife and
I strenuously deny the allegation.

Hargreaves calls you Jolly.

- Jolly Rogerson.
- He's a laugh a minute.

So there's a body.

We're taking it from here.

I was only searching for Carly.

Of all the long-term mispers, why her?

Call me later for initial forensics.

You've been talking to AC-12!

I believe you.

- Morning.
- Morning.

I've had to disclose the situation at work.

- Our situation?
- No, no, just the money.

- Now the whole world knows our business?
- No, just one executive officer in confidence.

Top man.

In fact, this particular officer
thinks very highly of me,

so I can see things getting a lot better.

How so?

If I was to put myself forward for promotion
when this case is finished...

.. this particular officer
more or less tipped me the wink.

Right.

Promotion's no small thing, love.

A pay rise.

Bigger pension.

We need to be clear
about a few things first.

I'll say it again.

I am deeply sorry
for having not consulted you about the finances.

It was a mistake.

I just wanted to surprise you.

Where's the harm in looking?

Right, we've all read this report.
It looks like DS Akers was on the take.

Well, it's only circumstantial so far.

If the officer meant to be looking
after a protected witness is getting paid off

and that witness gets killed,

it doesn't leave much room for circumstance
as far as I'm concerned.

Sorry, mate.

- Evidence is evidence.
- Good.

Dot, Steve - the husband,
you said he was acting suspiciously?

I could have jumped to the wrong conclusion.

It's fine, Steve. Let's just do our job.

Well said, Kate. Let's put it beyond doubt.

Let's bring the husband in for questioning
and do a 32 search on his house.

- Very good, sir.
- Off you go.

Sir, we haven't discussed
Deputy Chief Constable Dryden.

Denton's thrown suspicion towards him.
So far it's all checked out.

They worked together.

They had contact outside work and he made
sure she was on duty the night of the ambush.

That is one hell of an accusation
to throw at a senior officer, Steve,

especially a senior officer with such
an outstanding record of public service.

There is a story that was leaked
to the press

about him and his wife
swapping points on a driving offence.

Now, with respect, sir, if we didn't look into it
it would look like favouritism.

Sir, I checked Dryden's website.

He leaves tomorrow
for speaking engagements.

So if we don't bring him in today,
we'll lose him for the rest of the week.

We can delay bringing in Richard Akers
for 24 hours. He's going nowhere.

He's got no idea we're onto him.

Dryden's potentially more involved
with the ambush. It's got to be our priority.

If only to rule him out as soon as possible.

Right, well, I want no mistakes, mind.

I want all the I's dotted, all the T's crossed,
before that man sets one foot in this building.

- You understand?
- Yes, sir.

On you go.

Elvis has entered the building.

Thank you for your co-operation, sir.

I hope this isn't going to take long, Ted.

Just waiting on Chief Constable Lightwater
because of the special arrangements.

Barry Lightwater's coming up?

His force are having a bit of a ding-dong
with the PCC at the minute.

Between ourselves,
I think he'd be glad of the away day.

As I said, sir, we're very grateful.

- As you were.
- Thank you, sir.

It's all right. Don't get up.

- Sir, if you wouldn't mind.
- Thanks, Ted.

Thank you, thank you.

I think the way this works is you'll only
hear from me if there's anything untoward.

- Thank you, sir.
- Thanks, sir.

AC-12 interview of Deputy Chief
Constable Michael Dryden

with Superintendent Hastings,
DI Cottan, DS Arnott, DC Fleming.

Normal practice is
that the interviewee be questioned

by an officer at least one rank superior.

However, in this case that cannot happen.

So, Chief Constable Lightwater
of the East Midlands Constabulary

has kindly agreed to sit in as an observer.

Is that all right with you and the SEPO?

- I'm ready. Let's get on with it.
- Thank you, sir.

Well, I refer you to document one in your
folders.

A complaint has been made
regarding a traffic offence, an SP-30,

which occurred on the night
of August the 16th this year.

A vehicle registered to Mrs Helen Dryden

was photographed by a speed camera
travelling in excess of the speed limit.

Then, a week later on August 23rd,

the Traffic Division received notice
from Mrs Helen Dryden

that at the time the incident occurred

the vehicle was being driven by yourself,
Deputy Chief Constable Dryden.

Correct.

An allegation has been made that Mrs Dryden
and/or yourself falsified that notification.

Untrue.

I was driving. Helen was home.

And remember the reason
for your journey that evening?

I left home, drove back towards town
to buy some beer and wine from the off-licence.

Changed my mind, went back home.

And can you account
for the allegation to the contrary?

I'm a target. Someone in the organisation
wants to make me look bad.

I hope you spend as much time looking for them
as you do on this codswallop.

- We will, sir. We will.
- Glad to hear it.

Would I be able to ask a question, sir?

Full marks for balls. Go on.

- You didn't go into the off-licence?
- No.

So the only person likely to have seen you leave
and return home is Mrs Dryden.

Most probably.

Will we be able to take a statement
from Mrs Dryden?

Don't they train you people anymore?
A spouse isn't a compellable witness.

Sir, we're under no obligation to inform your wife
that she's not a compellable witness.

Whether she can or can't give evidence
against you is a moot point as per R v I of 2008.

I'll inform her. She'll back me up.

Nothing moot there. Anything else?

Why change your mind
about going into the off-licence?

Just did.

Um... If I may, sir,
there's just a few loose ends I'd like to clear up

regarding our investigation into the ambush
on the night of September the 5th.

My number one priority. Anything to help.

Thank you, sir.

DC Fleming, sir.

You took a call that evening
from DI Lindsay Denton.

Yes. She couldn't get hold of
her Duty Chief Superintendent.

She called me.
I gave gold approval for the operation.

Did she disclose to you
the nature of the operation, sir?

No, I regularly sign off on operations without
knowing the first bloody thing about them.

Sorry, sir.

Specifically, sir,
did you give approval to DI Denton

to proceed without backup and without
firearms?

Wasn't the call recorded?

She made the call from her office phone
and not the duty desk, so, no, sir.

I don't recall DI Denton
appraising me of those facts.

If she had, I would have expressed misgivings,
of course.

In terms of the on-call rotas,
specifically the ghost rota for 4th Street Station,

is that something
you'd ever normally take an interest in?

Why would I?

So you weren't involved at all
in the circumstances

that led to DI Denton
being the duty inspector that evening?

I also personally supervise whether beat
bobbies put on their left shoe first or their right.

Anything else?

Sir, could anyone have overheard
the conversation you had with DI Denton?

Only my wife.
It feels like we've been here before, DS...?

Arnott, sir. Did she overhear
or did you discuss the call with her?

Where are we going with this?

Sir, I think
DS Arnott's worried that your wife

may have got her sewing circle
to carry out the ambush.

I think we can safely discount
that theory, DI...?

Cottan, sir.

Cottan? That's right,
the Witness Protection expert from AC-9.

That's right, sir.

Look, Ted, you're married.
You know what it's like.

You take a call from a woman after ten at night,
God help you if you don't say what it was about.

- Am I right?
- Yes, that's right, sir.

Well, I'm divorced, so now I know why.

Exactly.

I told my wife it was a work call,
nothing more.

Obviously, if you need to take this further,
I'm completely at your disposal.

Whatever it takes to get those bastards,
right, Ted?

Thank you, sir.

Sir, the call from DI Denton...

Was that your first contact with her?

- What do you mean?
- Did you know her at all, sir?

Look, Kate, I think we're really obliged
to operate within the parameters

of the Reg 15 notice that we served.

And any other lines of inquiry
really have to be submitted in writing

to Deputy Chief Constable Dryden
and the SEPO.

Fine.

- Correct, sir?
- Quite right, Hastings.

Thank you, sir.

- Once again, apologies for troubling you, sir.
- Sure.

- Sir.
- Ted.

- My team, sir, they're young and they're keen.
- It's fine.

I hope you realise why this was necessary.

- Nobody can appear above...
- Ted, it's fine.

It's just I'd be mortified if you thought
I was ungrateful for your support, sir.

That never crossed my mind.
Keep up the good work.

Sir, I've listed the questions
that remain unanswered in regard to Dryden.

Whether he approved the lack of backup,
firearms,

changing the rota to put Denton on duty,
his alleged relationship.

The gaffer said we've got to be careful
about what we say.

What, and that explains
your stand-up routine?

Yeah, well,
there's more than one way to skin a cat.

I don't remember saying come in.

Sir.

It's all right, Steve. You did a grand job.

I need clarification, sir.

Will we seek an interview with Mrs Dryden?

- No, no. It's bound to be non-evidential.
- Yes, sir.

It sounds like a load of old bollocks to me,
anyway.

Why lie to incriminate himself?

If anything, he'd dodge it
and put it on his missus.

Well, I think we're getting a deeper insight
into why Dot's divorced.

Why don't we just close the whole thing,
shall we?

- Dump it back on Traffic.
- Yes, sir.

And the alleged relationship with Denton?
Aren't we seeking evidence?

I thought you said it was over, Steve.

With respect, sir, it connects Denton
to the person she alleges set her up.

Look, can we just not be saying
career-ending stuff like that out loud?

Yeah, yeah, OK, look...

All right, Steve. Seek corroboration.

But remember,
we're dealing with somebody's marriage here.

- Sir.
- Sir.

Sir.

What's she doing next door?

- Oi.
- Move away from the door.

What happened to the other two?

For your own safety, you'll exercise alone.

What if Dryden was trying to create an alibi
for the night of the driving offence?

OK.

Request his electronic diary
and access to his work emails.

Find out his official movements that day.

OK.

DC Fleming.

Thank you.

- What?
- Major Violent Crime have arrested Rich Akers.

Your late wife, DS Jayne Akers,

why was there a dramatic change
in her financial situation

in the month leading up to her death?

I don't know what you're referring to.

Here's a breakdown...
obtained by our Financial Forensics Unit.

It shows her financial activity
over the last six months.

For the first five months there was
a consistent pattern of debits to the account.

Cash card withdrawals, goods and services
using the associated debit cards.

Then suddenly it stops dead.

No cash point withdrawals,
no debit card payments.

It was as if your wife miraculously
stopped spending any money.

Or needing any.

I'm... OK.

We see this sort of pattern when a person
resorts to paying their way in cash.

OK.

Do you recognise this bank statement?

Also obtained by our FFU.

My bank account.

You haven't made a single
cash point withdrawal in over six weeks.

There's barely an item paid for by card.

Don't you need the money either?

Well, I wasn't earning.

So I knew I had to tighten my belt.

A team conducted a search
of your property today.

Your client was under arrest,
hence the search was authorised

under Section 18
of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act.

This case was found hidden
under the floorboards.

It contained £20,000 in cash.

24 hours.

He's going nowhere.

Twat.

It's not your fault, mate.

They got hold of the financial forensics,
that's all.

Yeah.

So, where did it come from?

I've never seen it before.

Never saw your wife with it?

I said, I've never seen it before.

- Your wife, she was taking bribes, wasn't she?
- No.

- I thought you said you didn't ask.
- I...

Must have been obvious
something was going ob.

- You didn't ask where the cash came from?
- No.

- Why not?
- I just didn't.

Richard Akers,
the evidence obtained in our investigation

has been forwarded to the Crown Prosecution
Service for authority

to charge you under section 329
of the Proceeds of Crime Act

and that you acquired, used
or had possession of criminal property.

Namely, funds received by your wife

as part of a conspiracy
to murder a protected witness.

Interview terminated.

The fact is,
you had the same evidence we had.

Only we acted, didn't we?

You didn't.

Kate...

It's bad enough already. Behave yourself.

Yeah.

DS Arnott, AC-12. We've been given
authorisation by the custody officer

to conduct an intelligence interview.

Off tape.

It's fine.

OK.

Bastard.

Holier than thou doesn't suit you, Kate.

You never turned a blind eye?

Benefitted from one?

This lot, they're gonna crucify Jayne.

Whether they get the facts or not.

- Who's out there?
- No-one.

She kept records.

Hidden.

Records of what?

Her last case.

The protected witness who got killed.

I believe she wanted leverage against
the criminal parties she was dealing with.

And these records, where are they now?

On flash drives.

I put them all in a Jiffy bag.

Set up a PO Box, sent them all to it.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, I had to work late again.

You must think I'm some sort of idiot.

Move away from the door.

Come in.

Hello, Lindsay.

I'm Fiona. Please sit down.

I have some bad news for you.

This morning I took a call
from the Ashcliff Nursing Home.

In the early hours
your mother suffered a severe stroke.

She's very poorly.

I'm very sorry.

Erm...

How's she doing now?

They're keeping her comfortable.

There's a geriatrician, Dr Panasar.

Yes, he's seen her.

They've decided not to transfer her
as she's DNR.

- Not for resuscitation.
- I signed the order.

Please accept our sympathies
at this very difficult time.

I am available to you
as your personal wellbeing officer.

I can also arrange an appointment
with our chaplaincy service.

Why don't I see a homeopath while I'm at it.

Are you being very sarcastic
or would you like me to contact a homeopath?

I just want to see my mum.

You were involved in a disturbance
and you self-harmed.

I was attacked.

I can only go on
what they've recorded in your file.

And that means that I can't see my mum?

It's up to the governor.

Kate. Jayne Akers' flash drives.

Go for it.

Right. We've prioritised this stuff
dated in the run-up to the ambush.

"T incensed by August 9th statement."

T - Tommy.

Right, let's see who was saying what
on August 9th, yeah?

OK.

"Need to reassure him
about his immunity from prosecution.

If SH compromised, require quick TX."

- Safe house.
- Transfer.

Contact made.

Contact with who?

- Denton maybe.
- Can't be.

This is from before the night of the ambush,
before Akers called her.

No further entries to say
who she made contact with.

Steve.

24 hours, son. That's what you said.

I messed up, boss.

No excuses.

Steve, you and I have had our differences.

But they're a damn sight easier to overlook
if the job's being done.

It was Hargreaves' decision
to make the arrest.

I argued the toss for what it's worth.

OK.

Oi.

Want a beer?

Yeah.

You've got every right to be pissed off.

No shit.

You said you thought
Rich Akers was hiding something.

I didn't say run financial forensics on him.

- It's my job.
- What, to drop me in it with my boss?

I got you access to the hospital car park CCTV,
to the crime scene on the industrial estate.

I just took it to be
a bit of "you scratch my back"...

That came later.

Yeah.

Well, I'm glad
I didn't have to point that out.

Anyway, that's all I came to say. So...

You don't have to go.

You and me, we just...

We just want to get the job done.

It's pretty hard to set that aside.

Yeah.

I'm not saying this is over.

On hold?

Yeah.

My non-work number for
when this is all over.

Good luck getting the job done.

You too.

DS Arnott. AC-12.

Just a moment, please.

It's all right. I've sorted the paperwork.

How'd you find out about this place?

- Been working flat out.
- This way.

These are the vehicles from the crime scene.

They were analysed in situ till the 6th
September, then sent to us for storage.

This is the vehicle registered to DS Akers?

The very one.

Everything's as was?

With the exception of items recovered
from on or inside the vehicle.

Where are they?

Here.

I've got an inventory of the items
held in evidence.

- We'll need to see it.
- I'll print you out a copy.

We'll need to inspect
the evidence ourselves.

Thanks.

You ever seen one of these before?

I used them when I worked in counter-terror.

What is it?

A tracking device.

What the hell are you up to?

- How long have you been sitting on this?
- Get out!

It's a private facility.
You've no jurisdiction.

Him, out.

I presented you with a warrant
to search these premises.

Any obstruction and you'll be arrested
for obstructing an officer

in the lawful execution of their duty.

Look, do you mind
just giving us a minute, please?

There was a lump on that car.

Oh, all of a sudden you become a detective?

- When did you find it, day one?
- You ought to wind your neck in, son.

So all the time it didn't matter
what route Denton took that night.

The ambushers were tracking Akers.

Well, nobody made you pin it on Denton,
did they?

You arse holes managed that
all by yourselves.

We've got what we came for, Steve.

Let's leave it at that, shall we?

Sir.

Lock it.

Move away from the door.

You'll be escorted off the premises today.

And how long will I have with my mum?

The governor hasn't given her approval.

This is a production order
to attend a police interview.

Returning to the night of the ambush,

the only officer you disclosed
the operation to was who?

Deputy Chief Constable Mike Dryden.

DCC Dryden corroborates receiving your call.

Good.

Was DCC Dryden known to you
in purely a professional capacity?

No. It went beyond that.

This alleged relationship
with Deputy Chief Constable Dryden...

- Alleged?
- Describe this alleged relationship.

It began when we worked in Crime Audit
together and ended a couple of months ago.

And how did it end?

He didn't leave his wife.

He made promises? Is that right?

Yeah.

What kind?

- That he would leave his wife.
- God, give me strength.

The issue here is that an allegation
has been put forward by you, DI Denton,

that somehow the Deputy Chief Constable

has set you up to take the blame for
the ambush on the night of September the 5th.

Now, is that about the top
and the bottom of it?

Honestly, sir, I don't know.

And you wouldn't have anything
to substantiate this theory?

A wee little thing called evidence.

Or is that too much to ask?

I resent your tone, Superintendent Hastings.

She resents my tone...

If there's been a relationship,
we require corroboration.

Did you ever go to his home?

No, he came to mine.

- Witnesses?
- I doubt it. We were very discreet.

Hotels?

We visited a place a few times.
I've submitted the details for you.

Well, most places, they insist on a credit card
from when you check in.

Mike insisted on using mine.

And then he gave me cash.

So he never used his?

Not that I recall.

Did he make calls from there on his mobile
or the room phone?

- Yeah.
- Good.

We'll find out if any of the staff
remember both of you being there.

See, the thing is, DI Denton,
the more intricate this investigation becomes,

the easier it is for you
to try and confound my team.

But I've been round the block a few times.

I really don't care if you and the DCC
were swinging off the chandeliers.

That does not make him a conspirator.

And you maintain you've never heard
of the protected witness.

- I haven't.
- And that you've never even met Akers before.

No.

And yet one phone call from Akers and you are
up to your neck in all her dodgy business.

Because I'm a police officer
and she needed my help.

Did you request approval from DCC Dryden to
proceed without backup and without firearms?

I did.

But with no recording,
it's your word against his.

Isn't it, DI Denton?

My word is I did.

You know what,
if you've been around the block a few times, sir,

then you tell me, have you found anything lately
which makes me appear guilty?

Anything?

Or is it starting to look like
you might just have the wrong person?

Ma'am, all the information gleaned from our
post-charge investigation, it's going to the CPS.

Good. It won't be long before they realise
there's no credible case against me.

Look, my mum is very ill.

And as I've co-operated,

I'd appreciate any good word to the governor
that might persuade her to permit me a visit.

Please.

We can look into that.

OK, we've found something on the flash drives.
Want to take a seat?

Can you play it?

This bloody thing on or what?

We had a deal.

Immunity from prosecution,
you two-faced bastard.

Does this bastard think I won't grass?

- Which bastard?
- They're all at it.

You show them this
and they'll know who they're dealing with.

- Police officers?
- Aye.

From the two-faced bastard
right down to The Caddy.

The Caddy?

He's been one of us since he was a wee laddie.

He's been doing a job on the inside
for years and years now.

- What are you going to do?
- You'll find out soon enough.

And then it will all come out
unless this immunity is sorted.

We had a deal.

Right, that was recorded
a week before the ambush.

It proves he was stressed
about his immunity.

Who's the two-faced bastard?

Play it.

The 9th of August statement
previously mentioned.

Resources are incredibly stretched.

Yet certain police forces and the courts
collude in granting immunity from prosecution

to individuals I'd describe
as repugnant offenders.

Men and women who cost the taxpayer
millions of pounds year on year,

while any right-thinking person would demand
they face justice for their crimes.

"Repugnant offender."

I couldn't have put it better myself.

Deputy Chief Constable Dryden,
Tommy's "two-faced bastard."

It was Dryden turning the screws on Tommy.

What about this other officer, The Caddy?

Mind if I look into that, sir?

Yes. Off you go, Dot. Thanks.

Thanks.

Anything else on the files comes up about
this Caddy, shoot it over to my computer.

- Yeah? Ta.
- OK.

If Tommy did have something on Dryden...

It's a hell of a motive for trying to orchestrate
the hit and keep it from coming out.

Lindsay was set up.

Steve...

Lindsay's phone records.

Come in.

There are numerous calls
in Denton's phone records

to and from Deputy Chief Constable Dryden.

The last was on the evening of 16th of August
from Dryden's mobile to hers.

The manager of the hotel confirms
that Denton and Dryden were semi-regulars.

Double room,
sometimes not even staying the full night.

Next step, we'd like you to sign off
on a request

to access Dryden's
phone and financial records, sir.

Well, there it is, plain as day.
The man's an adulterer.

Some people, you wonder if they've no shame.

Ah, well, one for the morning.

Good work, you two.

Are you sure, sir?
It's looking like Dryden's involved in the ambush.

It's looking like no such thing.

Only that he had an affair with Denton.

One step at a time.

Sir.

No.14, please.

Cheers.

- Can I have these off now?
- Against regulations.

We're all very sorry about your mum,
Lindsay.

- Thank you.
- I'll take you to her straight away.

Can you tell me what's happened?

A CVA. A stroke.

She understands but she can't talk.

Mum.

It's Lindsay.

Thank you.

Kasia says you can understand.

Are you comfortable?

Are you in pain?

Ring me if you need anything.

They're just helping me with work, Mum.

Dryden's emails were clean
but this was from his diary.

16th of August, night of the traffic offence,
he attended a reception at City Hall from 5pm.

According to witnesses, he left about 7pm.

No further engagements that evening.

The whole rest of the night
his whereabouts are unknown.

So what could he have needed an alibi for?

Run the date through the database.

Shit.

Switch.

4th Street Station, please. Missing Persons.

Missing Persons.

Hi, it's DC Fleming. I'm calling
for an update on one of your mispers.

Case No.G103734.

Kirk.

K-I-R-K.

- Carly.
- How can I help?

Yeah. It's pretty straightforward.

I just wondered if there was a formal DNA match
on the body found under the industrial estate?

Yeah, it's not coming up on my database.

OK, thank you.

Just one minute.

I'm here, Mum.

I'm here with you.

We left everything as it was.

That's what the police told us to do.

Normally what would happen
is control samples of Carly's DNA

would be collected
from a toothbrush or hairbrush.

That's what they did.

I know this is only going to add
to your distress but...

there seems to be a problem
with the samples.

What kind of problem?

We're trying to track them down.
I'm sure we will.

But the more you can tell me the better.

Well... a detective came to the house
and took the stuff you said.

Toiletries, bedclothes...

Dirty laundry.

It all went in black bin bags
and he took it away.

Normal procedure is for an officer to be
accompanied by a forensic investigator.

All the materials placed
into individual evidence bags

and you'd be asked to sign a search book.

But we spoke to the police.
They said they were sending someone.

You called them?

- Yes.
- No.

You remember, Tessa, we got a call from
the detective saying he was on his way round.

This detective, do you remember his name?

Sorry. He showed his badge
for a fraction of a second.

Would you recognise him again?

Yeah.

Yes.

Can you come to the station with me?

- When?
- Now.

- Time.
- Time.

I thought I could stay.

Do you know how much a night shift costs?

Would have loved the overtime.

- What if she...?
- You have to leave.

Answering only yes or no, do you understand?

Yes.

It's all right, Mum.

It's just work.

I'll be back to see you as soon as I can.

The detective that visited you was male?

Yes.

Age? 25 to 35? 35 to 45?

25 to 35.

Ethnicity. White, Afro-Caribbean, Asian?

Asian.

CCTV of the event at City Hall
attended by Dryden on the night of 16th August.

- How many tapes have we got?
- I got them digitised onto a single disc.

Brilliant.

Why don't I ever get invited to these do's?

There's Dryden.

Do you require assistance?

We have to go back.

That's not possible.

I can't let the last thing I said be a lie.

We have to go back.
I have to tell her the truth.

- What happened?
- Don't do that.

- You got a phone you can reach?
- I think so.

Call the ambulance.

Make the call.

- Make the call!
- I can't find my phone.

Stop!

No.

- No.
- No.

No.

No.

Police.

Police. Where are you?

Are you OK?

Don't be frightened.

Please come out where we can see you.
You won't be harmed.

She's down here.

Police. Show yourself.

Come on.

DI Denton. Is that you, ma'am?

We got a triple nine call
from your prison officer.

Stop.

That's him.

Tessa?

- I... I think so.
- I know.

That's him.

See?

Don't be alarmed, ma'am.

Oh, my God.

We'll get you somewhere safe, ma'am.

There you go.

Sorry to interrupt.

Carly Kirk's mate
described her boyfriend as being Asian.

Around mid-'30s, good-looking.

Went by the name of Matt.

Manish Prasad.
He's a serving vice officer at Polk Avenue.

And the foster parents identified him
as the one who came to their house.

And this is one of his team.

Jeremy Cole.

That's him.

Georgia was killed by one of ours.

I'm sorry, Steve.

Christ.

- We ought to take this to the gaffer.
- Wait.

Er, hang on.

Right, here goes.

Shit.

Right, ma'am, we've got to take you back.

Technically, ma'am,
you've escaped from lawful custody.

Thanks for not cuffing me.

It's a professional courtesy.

We need to show this to the gaffer.

Wait, go back.

What?

That's Carly Kirk.

This isn't your vehicle.

We had some problems.
Commandeered this one.

Jump in.

Let's not do anything
that'll make me look bad.

Radio in, tell them that I'm co-operating
and we're en route to the nearest station.
