All language subtitles for Line of Duty - S02E05 - Taste of Freedom (1080p BluRay x265 RCVR)

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

You've been talking to AC-12.

What is it?

Tracking device.

We were investigating Denton. It
didn't matter what route she took -

the ambushers were tracking Akers!

The records show that
Superintendent Hastings

is in considerable
financial difficulties.

I'd like you to carry on.

Very grateful, sir. Thank you, sir.

If I was to put myself forward
for promotion,

this particular officer
more or less tipped me the wink.

'We had a deal.
Immunity from prosecution.

'You two-faced bastard.'

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

' "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.'

Mind if I look into that, sir?

Carly Kirk?

No ID yet.

Her face
and finger-pulps were burnt off.

The detective came to the house
and took the stuff you said.

That's him.

Nurse? Where's the...?

Georgia was killed by one of ours.

Don't be alarmed, ma'am.

Out.

You've been in custody.
You've been interviewed.

What've you told them?

Nothing. Christ's sake.

What have you told them? Nothing.

We know you've been
cooperating with AC-12.

The prison officers
burning your hands -

that didn't get the message over?

OK. I'm going to ask you again.
What've you told them?

Nothing.

Now it gets serious.

What've you told them?

D-Dryden. Speak up!

Mike Dryden. Set the whole thing up.

We're listening.

That's all I said...
That's all I said to AC-12.

Jesus Christ, Manny,
let's just do her.

I've done one female copper.
Don't think I won't do another.

It's the truth!

They've charged you, remanded you.
What've they got on you?

Dryden set me up!

Last chance.

It's the truth!

You don't recognise him?

Whatever. He's been a liability
ever since the e-fit came out.

Now get in the car! GET IN THE CAR!

You're a liability, too,
unless you start telling the truth.

Think about it, yeah.

GET IN!

Right, that's the prison officers
away. They look fine.

What about Denton? We don't know
whether she was kidnapped.

Or they were springing her
from custody.

'All patrols, all patrols,
repeat,

'Lindsay Denton
has escaped from custody.

'Denton is known to employ
misrepresentation and deceit.'

Well, I couldn't have put it
better myself.

Right, well, get out there
and find her. Yes, sir.

"Yes, sir." "Yes, sir."

God help us all if we've lost her.

'Hello, Police.'

This is
DS Manish Prasad, Polk Avenue Vice.

We've just sighted DI Denton.

DC Cole was in pursuit
but I've lost him.

'What is your location?'
I'm going after them!

'DS Prasad?'

I need an ambulance.

Yeah, sure. You pass me the phone.

It's in my pocket.

I'm not going to reach for it.
You want an ambulance, you pass it.

We'll get to the ambulance
in a minute.

First, when I turn this on,
you're going to record a statement.

Dryden, the ambush, and me.
You got it?

If I talk, I'm a dead man.

Maybe you are anyway. So talk.

Please. Call an ambulance.

Why'd they use you for the job?

They had stuff on me and Cole.

He's Cole?

Jez - J-Jeremy Cole.

What kind of stuff?

We're Vice. Use your imagination.

And Dryden?

Him too.

So, there's the story.

That's why Dryden set up the ambush.

The suspect has asked me

to record what he believes
is his dying declaration

following his receiving
life-threatening injuries

in a road traffic collision

and finding himself in the hopeless
expectation of death.

State your name.

You really think you're going
to get out of this?

Not going to happen!

You killed Wallis and Butler!
Your mate killed Georgia Trotman!

All police, all innocent!

Please!

Now talk.

DS Manish Prasad.

In the hope...

hopeless expectation of death,

I record my dying declaration.

'Sighting of Lindsay Denton,

'identifying cell of caller's phone,
stand by for location.'

DS Arnott.

'This is Lindsay Denton.

'I've detained the two gunmen
who carried out the ambush.

'They're in a bad way so I've
recorded a dying declaration.'

Where are you?

'Check your inbox
for the audio file.'

It's here. Got it.

'The old Highpoint Building.
I'm keeping this phone on.

'They can triangulate
to this position.'

Lindsay? Lindsay?

Highpoint's over in Moss Heath.
You need to make a U...

Two bodies. Ready to approach.

Thank you.
Right, I want this scene secure.

Right now, somebody evidence
and secure this phone.

Paramedics, on my authority, you're
free to enter the crime scene.

Thank you.

Is he dead? Yeah.

Right, on my authority,
check that body. Thank you.

Denton's on foot, sir.
She can't have got far.

Yes, Kate. Put out obs. Sir.

Boss, I got an idea,
OK if I check it out?

Yes, off you go, Steve.

This one's still alive!

I want to stay with him, sir.
Keep hold of firearm units.

Make sure he gets
to hospital safely.

Agreed. Agreed, Kate,
good idea, good idea.

Dot, you're with her, all right.
Sir.

Right, come on, we've got
to get this cordon sorted out!

Kate.

'Steve. Prasad's still alive.'

Received.

She's in her mother's room.

Keep out for now.

Just arrived.

Nobody approach her,
just stay on the line!

You the nurse I was talking to? Yes.

Where is she? Last door on the left.

You hear any commotion,
you call 999 straight away. OK.

Lindsay?

It's Steve Arnott.

I'd like to come in, if that's OK?

Lindsay, I'm coming in now.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

I should've been with her.

We can arrange for you to see her,
if that's what you want.

They've already stripped her room.

Her things were very personal.

They mustn't lose them.

No, of course,
they've got to be returned to you.

How did you know I was here?

She was your mum.

I'll come now.

Take as long as you need.

I'll just be outside.

Thank you.

Well, let's hope he lives.

It's not whether he lives,
it's whether he'll talk.

Do you think he will? He's got to.

Chances are this arsehole's
the Caddy.

Look. I know what the crime scene
must look like.

What happened?

I was just defending myself.
I only meant to immobilise him.

You succeeded.

Don't make light of it.
It was horrible.

What happened to Cole?

Prasad murdered him.

Tell me something. Copper to copper.

Cole...

..was he definitely the one
that killed Georgia?

Yeah. He confessed.

You listened to the whole
declaration Prasad made?

No, not yet.

Dryden ordered the ambush, Steve.

With Cole and Prasad dead,

how do you propose to build
a case against Dryden?

We'll manage.

The fact that he's Deputy Chief
Constable - that's not an issue, no?

He's been accused of lying
about a driving offence

and it's all just melted away,

it's nothing to do
with him being the DCC?

Where's it all coming from, Steve?

Hastings, right?

Every rank above DCI
is more politician than policeman.

Hastings isn't daft enough
to take Dryden on.

You really don't know the man.

No. I think I know you, though.

Do you?

Dryden ordered the killings
of four police officers

and one of them was Georgia.

Dot, Kate, come with me.

The rest of you, back to your work.

No-one present at the High Point
crime scene should enter this room

to prevent forensic
cross-contamination.

Is she under arrest and cautioned?

For what?
Escape from lawful custody.

I was kidnapped.

Yes, well, we'll let a court
determine that, shall we?

They weren't springing her, sir.
They were going to kill her.

Kate, will you do that, anyway?

Yes, sir. Mm-hm.

We'll also need your clothes
for forensics.

Nothing personal,
you understand, it's procedure.

We'll have a doctor look at you,

and in the meantime,
we'll take care of you.

Kate, you get a female officer
to recover her clothes, yeah. Sir.

No, no. Not you.

We want your clothes as well.

There's an audio file, sir.
You'll hear she's innocent.

Yes, and I will listen to it.

When you're done here,
you place her in protective custody

in a random police station
under a false ID.

Kate.

Lindsay Denton, you're to be charged
with escape from lawful custody.

Do you require any legal
representation at this time?

OK.

'DS Manish Prasad.

'In the hope... hopeless
expectation of death,

'I record my dying declaration.

'I carried out the ambush
with DC Jeremy Cole.

'Under orders
from Deputy Chief Constable Dryden.'

Mother of God.

Sorry, gaffer, I didn't think
this could wait any longer

now we've got the dying declaration.

You've seen these images from CCTV.

The lip-reader's analysed the tape.
Nothing incriminating, just banter.

But Dryden and Prasad
appear to be on friendly terms.

Looking at their personnel records,

Dryden was Department Head at Vice
when Prasad joined as a DC.

They knew each other well, sir.

From the CCTV, you'd go
so far as to call them mates.

That's 15-year-old misper
Carly Kirk, also at the function.

We've contacted the catering company
and they've got no record

to say that she was
an employee of theirs that night.

She was known to Prasad

and we believe this is the last time
she was seen alive.

Yeah, good work, very good work.
Well done.

Sir. Sir.

He said to go straight in.

Gone to ground, Ted?

My office has been asking all day
for you to report.

Ah, you'll have to forgive me, sir,
I was just making sure of my facts.

Well, let's have them.

We've got the gunmen, sir.

One recorded confessing to the
ambush, and naming his accomplice.

Well, that's fantastic work, Ted.

I want to hear that recording.

All in good time, sir.

Er, this is a joint operation...

I will not disclose any leads to

Detective Chief Superintendent
Hargreaves, sir, and that is final.

Give us a minute, Les.

Les!

Do I have to drag it out of you,
Ted?

The two gunmen are or were
serving detectives

assigned to Vice, sir.

Well... That is a matter
of great sensitivity.

It's the right thing to do...
to keep a lid on it.

Who-Who were they?

I'd rather not say, sir,
I'm still gathering information.

There's those two plus Akers.

And Denton, of course.

Of course, there may be others, sir,
involved in the conspiracy,

others yet to be identified.

Well. Very good. Very good.

Being indiscreet for a moment,

you could be looking at
a promotion here, Ted...

assuming you want it.

It's a team effort, sir.

Oh, none of that false modesty.

Denise said to come straight in.

Absolutely.

It's a shame you can't appear
in front of camera,

but stick around
for the press conference.

Press conference, sir?

What did I say about false modesty?

This is the breakthrough
we've been desperate for.

If you'll excuse us, Ted?

Sir.

Sorry to keep you.

Dr Kaur will see you now,

and then the burns specialist will
come and have a look at your hands.

I'll wait here.

Thanks.

Dr Kaur wants her notes downloaded.
She was seen earlier this year.

All right. All right.

You want one, sir?

Or have you packed up
now you've gone squeaky clean?

I have packed up, as it happens.

It's another thing you can act
superior about then, sir.

We're off duty, mate.
It's still "Dot".

How can I help you, sir?

Look. It's all about information
in this game.

I was hoping you could help me out

with some information
about a certain Executive Officer.

You're asking the wrong bloke.

Aforementioned Executive Officer

had his name splashed all over
the papers for his wife's SP30.

A paper you used to throw
the odd titbit every now and then,

if I remember right.

No comment.

Look, it's no skin off my nose

if you're making
a bit of extra holiday pay.

Perk of the job. What counts
is what happened with Dryden.

What really happened that night?

You're in AC five minutes, you think
it's all right to grass on your own.

Dryden - one of our own?

What... he's having posh lunches with
the PCC and shagging on expenses.

We don't owe him anything, mate.

Well, if it's a choice
between sticking it to an Exec

or sticking it to AC,
I'll have to think about it.

This is all off record.

Come on...

help me stick it
to that smug bastard.

What I heard was
it was going round wife to wife.

She was in a state about the SP30,
terrified about the embarrassment.

Then, all of a sudden...

it wasn't her who was driving,
it was him.

So what was he up to?

You got it from Vice.

You never heard it from me.

Scout's honour.

He likes 'em young.

You got a name you can throw me
from Vice?

There is a lad. Mouthy.

Jez Cole.

Jez Cole.

Jeremy Cole?

Yeah, I've...
I've heard they call him The Caddy.

I'll have to
take your word for that.

Will you, though?

What?

Look, if you think
you've got it bad, you should try AC.

The bean-counters are
all over you for everything.

But I need to get this box ticked.

All you have to do is say you've
heard this nickname used for Cole.

It'll make it easier to keep
your name out the Dryden saga.

I don't think the DCC'd
be best pleased

to find out who'd splashed his name
all over the papers.

But it won't come to that.

For old times' sake.

Apparently Cole
likes to wear golf jumpers

but he's never played the game.

Hence, the Caddy.

Nige?

Nice one.

How is he?

Stable.

When he talks, we'll know the truth.

He's already talked.

Under extreme duress.

Have you told Lindsay he's alive?

No.

Good.

You should get off home.

I'm going to stay.

I want to be here
when he comes round.

All right. Night.

Night.

Steve...

Give us a minute, will you?

Cheers.

I don't suppose you've got any idea

what it's like to be locked up
24 hours a day, have you?

I'm sorry. Hold me on
the original conspiracy charge

but please let me
make a second bail application.

Please, Steve,
I can't be locked up any more.

Your Honour, the defendant wishes
to make a second bail application.

I'll hear it.

The defendant has proved
she's not a flight risk

by willingly surrendering herself
into police custody.

She's also fully cooperating
with Anti-Corruption Unit 12

in their further inquiries into
the murders of three police officers

on the 5th September.

Ms Latimer?

Your Honour, the prosecution
no longer opposes bail

subject to the defendant
surrendering her passport

and residing at her home address,

this being monitored
by an electronic tag.

This is on the basis, Your Honour,
that the defendant

continues to cooperate fully
with Anti-Corruption Unit 12.

From what I've heard, bail is granted
subject to these conditions.

Someone could've put the heating on.

I need a shower
and a change of clothes.

The, er... the base unit...

Yep, will alert you
if I run off into the night.

A uniformed officer will remain
outside. Is that overkill?

For your protection.

Right. Yeah. Thanks.

Great!

I don't suppose
you've got any ketchup?

Must've left it with
the pickled onions and mushy peas.

Are you being sarcastic? A bit.

I've just had my fill recently

of people speaking to me
in a mean-spirited way, that's all.

Sorry.

What happened to the cat?

Taken to a home
when I got put on remand.

Will you be able to get it back?

Her. She's been adopted.

Sorry, I didn't mean to...
It's all right.

Probably thought it was just a cat.

Mike was the same. He was allergic.

He said we could never move in
together if I kept a cat.

My previous cat. You got rid of it?

Well, I... I thought
he would move in.

You must hate him for it.

Like you said, it was just a cat.

I didn't say that.

Well, I'm home.

I'm semi-free.

And you got wine.

Thought after all you'd been through
it'd take the edge off.

Yeah. You thought right.

Do you want one?

Better not.

Well...

if you don't drink it, I will.

Can't jail me for that, can they?

Cheers.

Prasad's not dead.

He's in a bad way right now,
but there's every chance he'll talk.

Good.

I really better leave you
to settle in.

Thanks.

We have on record
your dying declaration,

made when you were under
the hopeless expectation of death,

testifying to the fact that
you carried out the ambush,

in concert with DC Jeremy Cole,

and under the orders of Deputy
Chief Constable Michael Dryden.

Now, is all this true?

Whether it's true or false
is irrelevant.

It was obtained under duress,
so it's inadmissible in court.

Well, we've got a pile of evidence
that is admissible.

Kidnap, attempted murder,

murder, conspiracy,

perverting the course of justice,

sexual activity with a child.

You are going down
for a long time, fella.

And I'm looking at three muppets
who know I'm their best witness.

Jesus.

Let's talk about
this 15-year-old girl.

Carly Kirk.

We have witnesses telling us
that you were her boyfriend.

You mopped up the DNA
control samples

from her foster parents' home
so her body couldn't be identified.

That your idea, Manish,
or was it Dryden's?

Did Dryden kill her?

I request immunity from prosecution

and enrolment in
a witness protection programme.

Look, we have you on tape
at a City Hall function

with Dryden and Carly Kirk.

Immunity.

What were the three of you
doing there together?

Immunity.

Steve.
There's summat you need to see.

This was found in the boot
of Prasad's private car,

under the spare wheel.

So the night we're interested in
is the 16th August,

the night of the driving offence.

Carly Kirk.

He must've left
the reception with her.

Keep going.

Got the bastard.

Open those last files.

We've got Prasad's dying declaration

it was Dryden who set up the ambush,
and now we have the motive.

These photos were also found.

This appears to be Carly Kirk's body
before it was buried

under the concrete floor
at the industrial unit.

Good work.

Good work, yeah.

There's just one thing
I don't understand here.

If Prasad had these photographs,

to my mind, that makes him part
of the effort to blackmail Dryden.

So what are you saying -
that he just changes sides,

does Dryden's bidding,
and sets up the ambush?

Well, until we get the CPS to agree
to terms on Prasad's immunity,

we're stuck. And we're stuck on
Dryden without Prasad's testimony.

It's too many ifs and buts.

That's why we need to fill in
the gaps with Dryden.

We're past the evidence threshold,
sir.

We can't do much more
without arresting him.

We would've done,
if he weren't the DCC, eh? Yeah.

Do it.

Sir. Sir. Sir.

What's going on?

Would you come with us, please, sir?

Where? We've made an arrangement
with East Midlands.

Superintendent Hastings felt that
was the most sensitive way to proceed.

Work, love. Give us a minute.

Please.

I'm not going to
make this easy for you.

Michael Dryden, you're to
accompany us for questioning.

We're not arresting you at this time

but if you do not comply,
then we will be forced to arrest you.

Get home, the pair of you.
Past your bedtime.

We're not going anywhere, sir,

unless you're coming with us.

Michael Dryden, I am arresting you.

You do not have to say anything but
it may harm your defence if you fail

to mention when questioned
something you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be used in evidence.

Hiya. Hi.

Do you want a drink?
No. No, sit down, love.

Is everything OK?

Um...

About the cruise...

I got ahead of myself.

You got my hopes up.

Why, if you couldn't follow through?

It has to do with work.

I had to do the right thing.

Oh.

OK.

Well, as long as YOU got
to do the right thing,

that's OK, then!

Thanks to sterling work

by one of this Force's
most highly specialised units,

the two gunmen responsible
for the 5th of September ambush

are now in our hands.

But this is a momentous day
for this police force,

for the rule of law
and, most importantly,

for the grieving families
of our four fallen comrades.

Thank you.

The format of this interview
is the same with any other suspect.

You no longer have the right

to be questioned by an officer
at least one rank superior.

Interview of Michael Edward Dryden
in the presence of his solicitor

by DS Arnott, DC Fleming.

May I begin, sir?

I've already been in custody
for eight hours.

Think you'd better get a move on.
Clock's ticking.

In respect of the night of 5th
September, the night of the ambush,

you received a phone call
from DI Denton.

We've covered this.

Well, one question
requires further examination.

Prior to the call,

what was your relationship,
if any, with DI Denton?

Two things. One -
there was no relationship.

Two - this lies outside
the parameters of the investigation.

Well, we're at liberty to investigate
any connection to the ambush,

its conspirators
and its alleged conspirators.

You should answer.

May I continue, sir?

Apparently you may.

Did you know her? Yes. We worked
together in Crime Analysis,

a six-month posting,
about five years ago.

DI Denton was on duty that night,

covering for
Inspector Joseph Barlow.

Inspector Barlow was invited by you
to attend a Crime Executive seminar.

By my office, not by me.

The Crime Executive
meets once a month.

We regularly invite officers
of all ranks and specialisations.

If Barlow hadn't been there,

he would've been the Duty Inspector
the night of the ambush, not Denton.

The names come up on a list.
Barlow wasn't cherry-picked.

It's a coincidence. But you accept
as a result of your invitation...

It's a coincidence,
an unfortunate one. Move on.

On the call from DI Denton,
you addressed her as "Linda".

Did I?

According to Denton,
that's what you called her.

I don't get where
you're going with this.

One theory would be that you were
trying to conceal to your wife

that you were receiving a call
from DI Denton. And it'd be wrong.

According to Denton's statement,
when you worked together,

your relationship went
beyond the purely professional.

First half-baked theories,
now innuendo.

You must want to face
a suit for wrongful arrest.

You deny an affair
with Lindsay Denton?

I do.

You deny spending nights
together at her residence,

Queens' Arms Hotel,
among other places?

I strenuously deny
an affair with Lindsay Denton.

An affair isn't necessarily
the same as sexual relations.

Have you had sexual relations
with Lindsay Denton?

I need a definition
of sexual relations.

If I may, sir.

"For the purpose of
this investigation,

"a person engages in sexual
relations when the person knowingly

"engages in, receives or causes
contact with the genitalia, anus,

"groin, breast, inner thigh,
or buttocks of any person

"with an intent to arouse
or gratify sexual desire.

"Contact means intentional touching,

"either directly
or through clothing."

I shagged her a couple of times, she
was a bunny-boiler, and I moved on.

Obviously she wanted there
to be more to it.

Ma'am, if you'd kindly refer
to Document 3 in your folder,

you'll see signed authority

to access your client's
telecommunication records.

I see Superintendent Hastings'
signature.

Sir, if you'd kindly refer
to Document 4 in your folder,

you'll see said records relating
to the 16th August of this year.

I see them.

You'll see a call was made
at 9:33pm from your mobile phone,

lasting approximately 20 seconds.

Do you recognise the number
receiving the call?

No.

This mobile phone
is registered to Lindsay Denton.

I made that call.
What was said in that call?

It was a long time ago.

According to Denton's statement,
you sounded distressed.

Why were you distressed?
I'm sick of her bullshit!

I called Lindsay
because she'd been following me.

Just when I think she's got
the message, there she is again.

Could be a week, could be a month.

But she turns up
and it starts all over again.

You're alleging
she's a stalker, sir?

That's exactly what I'm alleging.
She knows she can get away with it

because there is no way I'm going to
let her have her say about "us".

My wife having to listen to that.

In what way did she
allegedly stalk you that night?

I'm not saying she was there
that particular night.

I'm just saying she had a habit
of turning up and hassling me.

You sure about that? Yes.

Witnesses? Let me tell you
about Lindsay Denton.

She's too smart to
let there be witnesses.

She gets your phone records,
DC Fleming.

Superintendent Hastings,
she gets his financial records.

DS Arnott, she followed you,
took compromising photos.

Did you see her?
Were there any witnesses?

You want to watch her.
She's manipulative and conniving.

You can't trust a word she says.

Can we be clear?

You accept
the phone record is accurate?

As I've said.

I'd be grateful, sir, if you'd refer
to Document 8 in your folder.

Document 8 is a transcript
of part of a previous interview

your client gave us
under Regulation 15 Notice.

A complaint was made
regarding an SP30.

A vehicle registered to Mrs Helen
Dryden was flashed by a speed camera

and a week later Traffic received
notice that you were driving.

From the transcript - "DCC DRYDEN:
I was driving. Helen was home.

"I drove back towards town
to buy some beer and wine

"from the off-licence.
I changed my mind and went home."

Said offence took place on
the evening of the 16th of August.

Your mobile phone record places you
miles away from the speed camera,

making a call to DI Lindsay Denton.

You weren't driving that car.

It says so...

here.

Virtually my whole marriage,
I've worked long hours.

It's taken a toll.

That night,
Helen was at an AA meeting.

She was worried it would get out

if the speeding charge
was taken further.

She made out I was driving
and posted the form.

By the time she told me,
it was too late.

I hoped no-one would ever find out

but some arsehole
leaked it all over the papers.

She was ashamed...

she was attending those meetings.

I'm the one that should be ashamed.

We have information

that your wife had confided
her driving offence to friends.

She had a clean licence,
no chance of being banned.

We don't think that was a good
enough reason for her to lie.

The only reason would be
to provide you with an alibi,

or for you to seize the opportunity
to create one.

I didn't fill in that form.

If I happen to know
it was my wife that did so,

I have no intention
of testifying against her.

The lawyers'll have a field day.

The real villain in all this is
whatever toerag leaked that story,

to bring me down because
the politicians and the PCC

don't like me telling the truth
about service cutbacks.

Why are you talking about
service cutbacks, sir?

I'm trying to get you to
open your eyes, son. They're open.

If you weren't driving your wife's
car, what were you doing that night?

I've answered your questions.
We're done here. We're not.

Where were you that night?
No comment.

Document 10.

Here's a map showing
the mobile phone cell

from which your call
originated that evening.

Please specify your location.

No comment. You were out
in the Edge Park area. Why?

No comment.

DS Manish Prasad and DC Jeremy Cole

carried out the ambush
on September 5th.

Were you meeting with them?

What is this? Are you insane?

Look in your folder. Document 11.

Evidence log
from DCS Hargreaves' team,

re the vehicle used
by DS Jayne Akers during the ambush.

Item 14 - mobile magnetic radio
tracking device.

There was a lump on Akers' vehicle
that allowed the gunmen to track her.

This evidence
was withheld from AC-12.

You knew about this but let us make
a case against Lindsay Denton regardless.

Why did you withhold the evidence?

The investigations
were separate at the time.

It felt like the right way to go.

I didn't keep track of every
little piece of evidence myself.

You were happy for your alleged
stalker to be charged and remanded,

to take the blame for something
she didn't do. You set her up.

She's the one out for revenge!
She's the one out to get me!

She's using you all
and you've fallen for it!

Where were you that night?

Don't go down this road, son.
It doesn't end well.

You got the balls to charge me?

Tick-tock.

As you know, sir, you can be held
in custody for a maximum of 36 hours,

after which you'll either
be charged or released.

We thank you for your cooperation and
we intend to continue. Document 13.

Document 13.

This is a transcript from
a statement you gave to the press

on August 9th. In it, you expressed
disapproval for, in your words,

"repugnant offenders"

who should have their immunity
from prosecution taken away.

One such offender being
John Thomas Hunter, aka Tommy Hunter,

the protected witness.

We have Hunter on tape, stating
his intention to blackmail you.

For the tape, I'm presenting
the suspect with photographs

entered in evidence,
evidence number H86734-D.

Do you recognise
the male in this photograph?

It's... me.

Speak up for the tape.

It's me. And the girl?

Don't know.

For the tape, I'm presenting
the suspect with photographs entered

in evidence, evidence numbers
H86734 dash A to C, dash E to K.

That's you and the female?

Plainly.

What's happening
in these photographs?

Who's the girl?

I don't know.

You appear to know her well enough
in these photos. Appear to.

This is Carly Kirk.

She was seen working
as part of the catering team

at the reception at City Hall
on the 16th of August.

Carly Kirk is 15 years old.

I...

No, um...

She looked older.

How old? 18?

Carly Kirk was a vulnerable young
girl groomed by DS Manish Prasad.

You worked with Prasad in Vice.

Here you are together.

Did Prasad provide you
with young women for sex?

Absolutely not.

Maybe not.

But he knew what you liked.

Did an offence take place
between you and Carly Kirk,

namely sexual activity with a child
under the Sexual Offences Act 2003?

It's not what it looks like.
She never got started. I...

I came to my senses.

Well, why did you let it
get that far?

Why do you think?

Well, I'm not an old perv,
so you'll have to tell me.

I was tempted. For a moment.

And then I chucked her
out of the car.

We believe these photos were used by
John Thomas Hunter to blackmail you.

John Thomas Hunter was
the target of the ambush.

Did you set up the ambush? No!

I never even knew about Hunter,
I never knew about this blackmail!

You turned the tables on Hunter,
had him silenced.

That is not something I would do.
I'm not a criminal.

Well, according to
these photographs, you are.

What does the girl say
is happening in these photos?

What?

For the tape,

I'm presenting the suspect with
photographs H86734 dash L to P.

The point is who she was last
seen with before she disappeared.

Now, wait...

She was murdered.
Do you know who murdered her?

No. Did you murder her? No!

She was strangled.
Do you know who strangled her? No.

Did you strangle her? No.
Her teeth were ripped out.

Her face and finger-pulps
were burnt off

using a high temperature blow-torch.

Do you know who did that to her? No.

Did you do that to her? No!

While you've been in custody, there's
been a search of your residence

and vehicle under Section 18 (1) of
the Police and Criminal Evidence Act.

Our people were trying to find
clothes that you were wearing

in these photographs.
Why didn't they find any?

I-I don't know. Because you
purposefully disposed of them

to remove any trace of
this girl's DNA and clothes fibres.

I...I must've, um...

I must've had a clear-out
and given them to the charity shop.

Same with your vehicle.
A check round local businesses

reveals you had the car valeted
the very next day. Steam-cleaned.

I didn't want my wife
finding anything...

smelling the girl's cheap perfume.

So you admit taking measures to
conceal evidence you were with her.

Because I got how incriminating
it would be. Funny, that.

You were the last person to see
Carly Kirk before she disappeared.

The last person to see a girl

who's later found buried
under the industrial unit.

There's no evidence I did it.
Look at these photos!

You had Tommy killed to silence him
and you needed to kill Carly, too.

You've got nothing connecting me
to the body. Nothing.

Your career is over, sir.

Possibly your marriage, too.
Why keep up the lies?

I'm not a criminal. I'm an honest
man! You instigated a conspiracy

that led to the deaths
of four police officers.

The only conspiracy is against me!

Hastings! I know you're out there.
You're behind this.

Did they bribe you?

Get you out a mess
you made for yourself?

Hell, that's all going to come out!

You're finished!

YOU'RE FINISHED!

Empty threat, sir.

Michael Edward Dryden,

I hereby inform you that
the senior investigating officer

Superintendent Hastings will be
submitting your case file

to the Crown Prosecutor
for the purpose of seeking authority

to charge you with
the following offences -

murder, conspiracy to murder,

perverting the course of justice,
sexual activity with a child.

I'm innocent.

Someone is setting me up.

Interview terminated.

DI Denton's medical records.
Thank you.

Heads up, you lot.
