Sara.

I'm so sorry. Traffic was hell.

Jasmine, could you bring
some water through?

Wait. We've met before?

Yeah,
the Police Commissioner's Dinner.

Last year.
God!

I thought I'd erased that
from my memory.

This way.

Our smartphones already measure
our sleep, activity, heart rates.

They predict our genetic risk
to all sorts of illnesses,

but what if they could also predict
an upcoming mental health crisis?

Not only predict it, but avert it,

by providing direct access
to mental health specialists,

allowing you to record
and upload video diaries.

The Heal Remedy app
is a game changer.

PHONE BUZZES
Which is why today, I'm...

Sorry...

Sorry.

SHE CHUCKLES

Which is why today, I'm calling
on policy makers to set up...

to set up funding pathways.
We want to...

We'd like to...

Are you OK?

Erm...

I'm sorry. I, er, I need to go.

SIRENS IN DISTANCE

Gun crime, loan sharks,

sex trafficking, drug dealing -
the list goes on.

The Benchdale OCG is operating
at an unprecedented scale.

To dismantle them, we need
to sever the head of the snake...

starting with top man, Kamran Elin.

Wanted for serious and violent crime
across London and Brighton,

dating back to the fatal shooting of
London journalist Fiona Wilkinson,

eight years ago.

And Roel Albazi.

Elin's second in command.

Both men use extreme violence
to control and coerce.

Student, Amelia Pardoe.

Killed not three months back.

Caught in the crossfire
of a drive-by shooting

close to her home in Casement Road.

And still no convictions.

Ma'am, I... I appreciate
Benchdale have gained a foothold,

but I'm proud to say...

Talk to Amelia's parents
about how proud you are.

DC Nicholl,
any progress with tracking suspects?

Yeah, er, yeah. Erm...

So it's difficult.
Elin and Albazi are elusive,

and they're smart,
and they groom lower-tier members

of the organisation
to do their dirty work,

making sure that the evidence
never traces back to them.

Keep on them.
PHONE BUZZES

If they make a mistake and surface,
be ready.

Yes, Ma'am.

BUZZING

Bloods all look normal.

Haemoglobin very slightly low,
so I'd up the iron-rich foods,

but nothing to worry about.

Have you thought
if you would like to try again?

Erm...

Er, we haven't talked about it.

Take your time.
It's important you're ready.

Emotionally as well as physically.

But, so you know, most people
who have a miscarriage

go on to have a normal pregnancy
next time.

Hey.

Right, so the victim's name
is Hannah Belling.

35, divorced,
she's a former psychiatrist

who just launched
a mental health app.

It's quite the success story.

It's had lots of press attention,
won awards.

It lowers your stress levels,
apparently.

Tell you something,
might have to download it myself.

Talking of which, how's Ari?

Don't ask.

OK. Who called it in?

Downstairs neighbour.
Anya Chandanasiri.

She's a law student
at East Sussex Uni.

Next of kin? Er, Hannah's
ex-husband, Corin Belling.

He's an IT consultant,
lives up in Kemptown.

They separated
about six months back,

that's when Hannah
took on this place.

Uniform are on the way to him now.

Good.

There's Sara from the Argus.

Maybe have a word.

If Hannah was working in press,
maybe she came across her.

Yeah, will do.

WOMAN: The place is a mess.

Uniform are conducting
background checks

on all residents and tradespeople,
and are doing a house-to-house.

CCTV on the side door's
been vandalised,

but there's a camera
on the front door.

I'll see what footage I can pull.
Yeah, and I've already told you, no!

Look, I've gotta go.

Well, it looks like they've taken
her phone and her computer,

but they left her credit cards
and other valuables,

so not your average break-in.

From the algor mortis,
I'd say time of death

is between 7:30pm and 9:30pm.

Cause of death
looks like the head injury.

But we also have
these compression points.

Strangulation?
Yes.

But there's very little room
for error in strangulation.

Even a small mistake
can lead to survival.

So I'd say
the killer eradicated that chance

by hitting her head
against the floorboards.

This indentation in her finger,
is that a wedding ring?

I'd say so. Looks like
she wore one until very recently.

Any potential DNA?

It's tricky.

She's been very carefully cleaned
with an oxygen-based detergent.

But forensics have found something.

They're working on
extracting a number of skin cells

found between the floorboards.

What's this?

A hair.

Doesn't look like Hannah's.

Who'd have thought? Sara Joshi.
It's been a while.

Yeah. Thankfully, crime scenes
are no longer my department.

It's good to see you, Glenn.
Yeah, you too.

Is it definitely Hannah?

Oh, you know her?

Yeah, we met last year.
The Police Commissioner's Dinner.

We put the world to rights
over a mojito.

I interviewed her only yesterday,
actually.

How was she?

At first, normal.

Like, same as.

But then she got a text
halfway through and cut it short.

I don't know what was in it,
but it scared the life out of her.

From the surrounding area.
OK.

Roy. I wonder if I could have
a quiet word?

Yeah, of course.

The Chief Constable's breathing down
my neck over the Amelia Pardoe case.

And with Hannah's profile,

this-this is already
getting press attention.

I see.

And?

And we're under scrutiny.

OK, let's not fan the flames.

I need swift results on this one.

Roy.

Hannah's ex is here.

If you'll excuse me.

I'm sorry,
if you wanna do this another time...

No, it's all right. I wanna help.

What can I say?

I loved her.

I notice you still wear
your wedding ring.

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Feels weird without it.

And what about Hannah,
did she still wear hers?

Erm...

No. No, she, erm...

she gave it back to me recently.

Look, I'm sorry to ask this,
but... last night,

where were you?

I, er... I was at home.

Sorry, why?

You didn't see her?

No.

I-I've not seen her for a while.

Jessica said that she was mad busy
at work, so...

Sorry, Jessica?

Friends of ours, Jessica and Marcus.

Oh, God, I need to let them know.

Look, we can do all that.
And the family.

Actually, is there anybody else
we should contact?

She has a brother, Robbie,
but to be honest, you...

He's trouble.

That's not just me saying that,
you-you ask anyone.

We cut ties, about a year ago.

I can give you his number,
if you like. If he's still on it.

Well, that would be helpful,
thank you.

And like I say,
anything I can do to help.

Actually,
we still haven't found her car.

You don't know where she kept it?

Yeah. Yeah. It's-It's at my house.

We still share a car.
There's no parking here, so...

I'm gonna head back now,
actually, clear my head,

unless there's anything else?

There is one more thing.

Would you mind
giving me a DNA sample?

S... Sorry, a sample from me?

What, am I a suspect now
or something?

It's just for elimination purposes.

I'd prefer not, if that's all right.

Of course. No problem at all.

NEWS REPORT: '48 hours after
an air traffic control system fault

'grounded hundreds of flights
at Gatwick Airport.

'Airlines and airports...'

Chloe? Eat something.

You can't go to college
without breakfast.

There's literally nothing to eat.

If Dad had gone shopping...
Dad was at the hospital last night.

And you're old enough
to go shopping yourself.

How was work, anyway?

Stressful. This young lad
had a seizure in the waiting room.

We had to intubate
and ventilate to bring him round.

Mum.

Is that Hannah's place?

TV: '..was found dead
inside her own home.'

That's not...

'..and the woman was discovered
deceased inside her property.'

Call Corin.

Marcus! Now.

'..anyone with information
to get in touch.'

Look, before you shoot,
can I ask you for a favour?

Can you see if there's anyone
at the Argus

who might have any intel
on Sussex Central Hospital?

Any complaints about
working conditions, training,

that sort of thing.
Isn't that where Ari works?

Everything OK?

Er...

Actually, no.

SIGHS

The hospital's accused Ari
of negligence.

Look, I'm just looking for anything
that might help her case.

Yeah, I'll see what I can dig up.
Leave it with me.

It was good to see you again, Glenn.

All good?

Yeah.

I mean, they push Ari way too hard.

She's exhausted.

HE SIGHS

I don't know.
What if she made a mistake?

What's she saying?

Not much. Which worries me.

She's... She's just running away
from everything.

Me included.

CHILD: Are they there, Mum?

Yeah, I got 'em. Coming.

There you go.

I made you tea. It's probably cold.

Oh, that's great. Thanks.

What?

You don't have to sneak upstairs

every time
you want to send someone a text.

If you need a bit more privacy,
then just ask.

Mum, I didn't.

I don't.

Ava!

Hannah was scared. And targeted.

She carried a rape alarm,

and had fitted new heavy-duty locks
on her door.

Who was she scared of?

So there's been a spate of break-ins
at Lewiston Mansions recently,

so maybe she'd fitted the locks
for her protection.

Intruder still gets in, she
interrupts them, and they kill her.

Yeah, but her jewellery
wasn't taken, nor her credit cards,

and her purse was left in her bag,
right by the door.

Yeah, I'd say this
isn't about money,

but they were looking
for something specific.

Hannah's laptop and phone
were taken, right?

Maybe there was something on them

that the killer just didn't want us
to see.

So this wasn't a simple burglary.

It seems somehow... personal.

Strangulation is intimate.

Victim usually female,

usually attacked by someone close.

Family members, partners,
ex partners.

Corin Belling,
he refused a DNA test,

and he's got no alibi.
He should be our focus.

Was there any flag
on the Lewiston Mansions CCTV?

The side door entrance camera
wasn't recording.

The footage is showing
an error code,

and there's nothing suspicious
on the front door cam.

OK. Check other CCTV.

Also, we have to find her laptop
and her phone.

I'll check bins, dumps, pawn shops,

and I'll find out when the next
sonar sweep of the harbour is.

And we need to talk
to Corin's friends,

erm, Jessica and Marcus O'Sullivan.

And we need to locate
Hannah's brother, Robbie Taylor.

It was categorised as low risk,

but Hannah filed a MISPER report
on him, three months back.

And I also checked his record.

Joyriding and burglary.

Any DNA on file?

No, the joyriding,
he was a juvenile,

and the burglary got dropped
due to lack of evidence.

Well, whatever rock he's under,
let's find him.

Boss,

it seems that Hannah reported
a former employee to the police

for threatening behaviour.

Erm... She sacked him for
bullying someone in the workplace,

so he bullied her instead.

And he's got previous.

His ex filed a restraining order
against him.

Sounds like a charmer.
What's his name?

Seymour Darling.

KNOCKING

Nora Philips?
We're looking for Seymour Darling.

You and me both.
I haven't seen him in days.

I haven't seen him
since he lost his job.

Oh, excuse the draught.

We had a break-in
a couple of days back.

Did you report it?

No point.
They broke the locks on the desks,

but nothing valuable was taken.

Probably just kids, messing about.

Jasmine, did you ever witness
any bullying from Seymour Darling?

Witness it?

I experienced it.

He's a snake.

He twists what you say,
makes you feel stupid.

Did you report him?

No.

Esme was the brave one.
Esme?

Esme Collins. One of the volunteers.

Did Hannah take action against him?

She got rid of him the next day.

There's a disciplinary hearing
set up for tomorrow.

If it still goes ahead.

When Seymour found out, he lost it.

He blamed Hannah for relapsing
and started following her,

threatening her.

Do you think
he'd ever act on those threats?

I know he would.

Organise a forensic sweep.

And take prints
from all the staff for elimination.

The break-ins have to be connected.

Just got a message from Nora.

She's just got hold of Seymour.

I just wanted to talk to her.
Is that too much to ask?

And when she wouldn't talk to you,
how did you feel?

Angry?

Let down.
I thought she was better than that.

I should have known. Hannah
always protects the wrong people.

The wrong people like Esme Collins?
Esme's a dumb little liar.

But Hannah took her side?

Yeah.

But it's like Nora said to me,
she did me a favour.

Wasn't healthy for me,
working with women like that.

And the disciplinary hearing,
it's still going ahead?

Yeah.

It's time to tell the truth.

The real truth.

I should go prepare.
One last thing.

Where were you last night?

Bird-watching on the Downs.

Saw my first spotted flycatcher,
as it happens.

Is that everything?

Interesting timing,
the disciplinary hearing.

Maybe Hannah had something
incriminating against him...

..so he broke in looking for it,
try and derail the case.

Let's put a rush on forensics
from the office,

and cross reference his prints
and DNA.

Yeah.

I'll get Vee to run
a triangulation on his phone.

Let's see if he really was
at the Downs.

Cause of death was the head injury,
as suspected.

When her head was smashed against
the floorboards,

it caused a linear fracture
to the back of the skull

resulting in a subdural haemorrhage.

And there's something else -
semen was found.

Examination suggests
recent sexual activity,

most likely in the hours
before her death.

There's no sign of trauma
or laceration, so...

So, consensual, then?

Most likely, yes.

Oh, and that ring finger
you were asking about...

it has an avulsion.

Recent ligament damage
beneath the ring area.

I'd say it's been pulled off
with force.

Was that before death or after?

Hard to pinpoint the exact time,

but I would say days
or hours before her death.

Well, that's a hell of a long way
from what Corin told us.

Thank you.

Look, it was just a barney.

Hannah said that the ring was hers,
which technically it was,

but I said that I wasn't leaving
until she gave it me back.

So she...
she pulled it off her finger,

I mean, yanked it off her finger
and she kind of... threw it.

Why didn't you mention this before?

I... I suppose
I thought it looked bad.

It does look bad.

Corin, had Hannah
started seeing someone?

What? N...

Erm, no.

Sorry, who said this? Jessica?

Not Jessica, no. It's just
something we're looking into.

Corin and Hannah,
they were good friends of yours?

Since uni.
You know what it's like at that age.

Hannah took me under her wing.

That was that.

Friends for life.

And since Corin,
did she meet anyone else?

No.

No-one she's mentioned.

And her brother, do you know him?

Robbie?

Yeah. To be honest,
we don't really see eye to eye.

Why's that?

Well, it's all a long time ago now,
but...

..when we were at uni, he was
always saying he'd come and stay...

..and Hannah would get all excited
and get a load of food in.

And then he just wouldn't show up.

He'd disappear, for, like, months.

We used to call him Houdini.

I mean, he was just a kid back then,
so we made exceptions.

But then he grew up,

and he got worse.

SOCO found glass shards out here,
but nothing in the office.

From the pattern of the crack,

it looks like it's been broken
from the inside.

So was staged?

It looks that way.

Hannah installed security cameras
the next day,

so I'm having the footage sent over.

Who was the last to lock up?

Glenn?

Er, the cleaner. Lauren Packham.

We should speak to her.

Look, I'll take Lauren.

Why don't you go and talk to Ari?

Cheers.

How long have you worked
at Heal Remedy?

Er...

Since the start, when they opened
the office about a year ago.

And you have keys?

I do,
along with quite a few others.

On the night of the break-in,
what time did you leave?

8pm. Normal time.

And you didn't notice
anything suspicious, unusual?

No. I mean, not that I can think of.

What about Hannah...

did the two of you
have much contact?

PHONE CHIMES

Sorry.

Everything OK?

Yeah, fine. Just, er, junk.

Honestly, I didn't have much
to do with Hannah.

Bella,
look into Lauren Packham for me.

She's scared,
and she's hiding something.

Listen, er...

There's a...

There's a journalist that I know
at the Argus.

Sara Joshi.

Look, she specialises
in public health, medicine,

that sort of thing.

I've... I've asked her
to look into the hospital for us.

You've told a journalist
my private business?

Wait, look...

whatever happened,
I'm here for you.

Come hell or high water,
I'm here, right?

But we need help.

We need help,
so you can move forward.

The family can't move forward,
can they?

What if I don't deserve
to be exonerated?

What if it was my mistake?

Then we deal with it.

Together.

HE EXHALES

Look, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.

It's all right.

It's all right. It's a shock.
You're in shock.

Do you think
Hannah said anything to Jessica?

Nothing. Jessica would have told me.

I just feel like
I'm on this roundabout

and it just keeps getting
faster and faster and faster.

I just need something
to help slow it down.

I... I can't.

I'm not your doctor. You have to go
and speak to Dr Jones.

He won't give it to me, Marcus.

Come on. Come on, please!

Oh, don't make me beg!

This is the last time.

I mean it.

Get some sleep.

KNOCKING

Yeah?

Just a list of cars
in the vicinity of Lewiston Mansions

on Wednesday between 7 and 10pm.

OK. Thanks, Nick.

Anything else?

Er, yeah.

So, it's just to say that
when you look at the list,

you might notice my car is on it.

Yours?

Yeah. Erm...

I probably should
have said something earlier,

but, er, I've been living
in a B&B for the last week.

It's opposite Lewiston Mansions.

I see.

Can I ask why?

Erm...

just some stuff to figure out.

But, yeah, I just... I just wanted
to flag it before you saw it.

OK. Thanks for letting me know.
Boss.

Uniform have found something
on a doorbell cam.

It's not clear enough to get an ID,
but they've captured a man

leaving from the side door
of Lewiston Mansions,

at 9:20pm last night.

Let's check other cameras. Maybe
he's been captured somewhere else.

PHONE BUZZING
Sorry.

Erm...

Ah, yeah, CCTV from outside Heal
also flagged something.

So there was a man watching Hannah
as she left work last night.

OK, check the height and build
from both sets of footage.

Could this be Seymour or Corin?

Oh, Nick, anything back
from Hannah's phone records?

Yeah. Mainly work calls.
There's a few personal ones.

She was inundated with texts
from Seymour Darling.

And the last call she made
was to an unregistered number.

And the last text she received
was from a different number,

but also unregistered.

Robbie, maybe?

Jessica called him Houdini, he
disappeared and reappeared so often.

So, why did she report him missing?
What's different this time?

Boss, I've got
the triangulation results

from Seymour Darling's phone.

He was at Lewiston Mansions
last night.

Bring him in.

You were at Lewiston Mansions
last night, Seymour.

Was this before
or after you were on the Downs?

Can you explain why?

INHALES SHARPLY

Hannah was gathering evidence
against me.

I thought
I'd gather a bit of my own.

What kind of evidence?

Photos. Videos.

The people on the panel need to know
what kind of woman she was.

And what kind of a woman was she?
A slag... who screws men in cars.

That's offensive. And misogynistic.

But true.
It's disgusting.

No, Hannah was disgusting,

making false accusations against me,
pretending to be on my side

then screwing me over.

Except the accusations were true.

According to who? You, Miss
High and Mighty? What do you know?

I know you have a previous
conviction for threatening your ex.

She misconstrued the situation.

She was dumb. Like Hannah.

Enough.

Seymour,

you said you saw Hannah having sex
with a man in a car.

Did you get a good look at the man?

The man in the car?

No.

The man in her window, however...

You saw a man in her window?

Yeah.

Was it this man?

That's her husband, right?

I've seen him there before,
grovelling.

And was he there last night?

Maybe.

How about this man?

Maybe.

We can place Seymour
outside Hannah's flat,

but nothing so far
to place him inside.

Nor to suggest he's been back
to the office since he was let go.

He's also claiming
that he saw Hannah having sex

with a man in a car.

He's such a tool.

Go through Seymour's photos.

If he was following Hannah,

there may be an image of this man
somewhere.

And did Corin know? Could this be
what pushed him over the edge?

Well, I spoke to
Hannah's divorce lawyer,

and he said they're not
technically divorced yet.

Corin is contesting
the house sale,

which has essentially brought
the whole shebang to a halt.

So...

In the event of Hannah's death,
Corin gets everything.

Exactly.

Forensics are back.

The skin cells found on the
floorboards are of unknown DNA,

but the hair found in Hannah's
blood, it's a match for Corin.

'This looks very bad.'

You can see that?

If there's anything you want to say,
Corin, now is the time.

Corin?

Ask for Kate.

Who's Kate?

Kate Bullworth.

She's my sponsor.

I'm an addict.

Opiates, alcohol.

It's why Hannah left me.

Last night, I was supposed to be
at my support group, but...

..I hit rock bottom.

I... relapsed.

I wandered around for hours.

Didn't know where to go,
didn't know what to do.

So I went to see Kate.

Why didn't you say this before?

HE SCOFFS

Oh, I'm not proud.

If my boss found out,
I'd lose my job.

Already had a warning.

Ask for Kate.

Hey, I've been looking into Lauren.

Guess who's down as her next of kin
on medical records?

Hannah's brother, Robbie Taylor.

She isn't just her cleaner,
she's Robbie's girlfriend.

What?

Speak to her.
She could be covering for Robbie.

Did she give him access to Hannah's
office before staging the break-in?

MAN ON VIDEO: 'A-ha!

'Give us a big smile.
Give us a big smile for your mum.'

Lauren Packham?

DS Moy.

She must miss her daddy.

How is Robbie?

Look, we know you lied.

You let him into Hannah's office,
didn't you?

What was he looking for?

Robbie would never hurt Hannah.
He loved her.

Is that what he told you?

Come on, Lauren.
We need to speak to him.

Where is he? I've no idea.
We've split, all right?

I've not seen him in months.

Ava? Get here now.

'OK. Thank you.'

Bye.

HE SIGHS

Corin's alibi checks out.

Kate said he arrived at hers
at 8:30pm and left at 10-ish.

We're gonna have to release him.

So the question remains...

..how did his DNA
end up at the scene?

Well, I think you're right
about Lauren, covering for Robbie.

But my guess is she's scared of him.

She froze when she talked about him,
and someone was watching us.

Think Robbie may be keeping tabs
on her.

Maybe he's not missing after all.
Maybe he's in hiding.

Look,

I'll get uniform out first thing,
OK? Knocking on doors to find him.

You do that,
and then let's call it a night.

BRUNO: Do you think Mum
was called Sandy

because she was born by the sea?

CLEO: I don't know.

Grandma called to say night-night.

Yeah?

I'm mad at her.

Grandma?
Uh-huh.

She won't talk to me.

About Mum.

I just keep wondering, what was
she thinking about before she died?

Was she upset? Was she scared?

Was she thinking about me?

HE SIGHS

He's asleep.

He had a row with Margot.

Could do with a break.

Did you talk to him about Sandy?

I don't wanna hurt him.

She's his mum.

He's already hurting.

PHONE BUZZES

Bella.

'Sorry, Roy. Nick's got something.'

These photos
are from Seymour's phone.

Now, they're timestamped
yesterday evening.

Photos were cropped, but I
restored them to their original size

and if you look, you will see
that is Marcus O'Sullivan's car.

So he was having an affair
with Hannah,

then he tries to pin the murder
on Corin...

but where does he get Corin's DNA?

What about their car?

Hannah's key fob was analysed
and compared with Corin's,

and it was last used
at 9:40pm last night.

So someone accessed the car
after her death?

Wait, hold on, 9:40?

At 9:40, Corin was still with Kate.

And he walked,
so his car was at home.

So if Marcus thought Corin
was at his support group,

did he use Hannah's fob to take
Corin's DNA from the car

and plant it at the scene?

Your DNA is a match to the semen
we recovered from Hannah.

Her DNA is in your car.

You lied about your alibi.

We have a photo of you with her
in your car hours before she died.

Did you kill Hannah Belling?

No. We loved each other.

When did the affair start?

If you mean sexually,
a few months back.

But emotionally?

I can't even remember.

We dated at uni.

I was the idiot who called it off.

Then she met Corin, I met Jessica,
and the rest is history.

Would have stayed history
if Corin hadn't botched it all up.

So it's Corin's fault?

That's not what I said.

Did you have sex with Hannah
on Wednesday?

Yes. But I didn't kill her.

Look, you have been lying

to your wife and to your daughter
for months,

so why should we believe you?

If you're so sure I did it...
then why don't you charge me?

If we can place him there
on Wednesday night,

we're close to charging him.

Vee, the skin cell DNA results,
are they back yet?

They are, but bad news.

They've been confirmed
as crime scene personnel.

OK. Right.

I want another sweep of that flat.

Did we miss anything?

Roy. We've got a second patch
of blood.

It's in the hallway.

Guys, the blood we found
in the flat, it's not Marcus.

It's come back as familial.

Robbie?

He was at Hannah's?
Certainly looks like it.

Although not the night
that she died.

They've dated it to be
approximately ten weeks old.

It must have been some injury.

Whatever happened has to connect
with what he was running from.

Bella, pull up
Robbie's missing persons report

and see what date it was filed.

Nick, check hospital admissions
from ten weeks back.

It was the 18th of May.

OK. Speak to Lewiston Mansions,

see if they keep CCTV
from that far back.

Let's see
if we can get a sighting of him.

PHONE PINGS

MUFFLED SPEECH

MUFFLED CRYING
AND YELLING

GUNSHOT

SHE GASPS

SHE SOBS

So a man fitting Robbie's
description was admitted

to Sussex Central Hospital
at 5:40pm on the 17th of May

with a gunshot wound.

And the doctor treating him
called the police, but the man fled.

So, Robbie flees, and then shows
up at Hannah's, bleeding heavily.

The next day, he's gone. Hannah
files a missing persons report.

Now, obviously, he didn't wanna
draw attention to the gunshot wound,

so whatever Robbie is mixed up in...
could it be gang related?

It'd explain why Lauren's so scared,

and why she hid her connection
to him and Hannah.

17th of May.
What is it about that date?

Shit!

The Amelia Pardoe shooting.

The what?
The drive-by shooting.

Yeah, so basically the...

the Benchdale OCG
opened fire on this rival gang

and Amelia Pardoe
was this young girl

who got caught in the crossfire.
Yeah, it was May 17th.

They arrested the shooter
and the driver,

but a third man fled the scene
before the police arrived.

They never identified him.

Yeah, that must have been Robbie.

He was working for Benchdale.
The texts to Hannah's phone,

they were from an unregistered
number. They weren't from Seymour.

Right, OK, so if Benchdale
were targeting Hannah

and they were behind those messages
and break-ins,

she never stood a chance.

But why Hannah?

She clearly had something
they wanted.

SHE EXHALES

Roy?

You're not gonna believe this.

Marcus, let me be clear,

I know you lied
about your whereabouts on Wednesday.

I'm a hair's breadth away from
charging you with Hannah's murder,

so I'm gonna ask you one more time -

what were you doing
at Lewiston Mansions on the 17th?

Hannah called me.

In a state. Panicking.

Said there was a medical emergency,
so I went over there.

And you found her brother, Robert?

Yeah. He'd been shot.

He was in a really bad way.

Did you know what had happened?

No. I didn't ask.

I was trying to save his life.

But the next morning,
it was on the news...

..and a young girl had been killed
in a drive-by shooting.

Amelia Pardoe.

Yeah.

She was just a...

She was just a kid.

Same age as Chloe.

I was so angry at Hannah
for putting me in that position.

I could've been struck off.

But not angry enough
to call the police?

I couldn't.

They're animals.

What if they came after my family?

Besides...

Hannah promised me, she swore to me,

that she was dealing with it,
the bastards would go down.

But they didn't go down, Marcus,
did they?

Because of witness intimidation,
they're still out there.

And Hannah is dead.

Right, so we know
that after the shooting,

a witness reported that she'd heard
a gunshot go off inside the car.

And she said she saw
a man staggering away.

Now, blood on the back seat
has confirmed her account

that there was a third person who'd
been shot during a struggle inside.

They never recovered the handgun
that was used to shoot Amelia,

but the gang control unit
established from bullet fragments

that it was the same gun that was
used in a series of other crimes,

including the assassination
of Fiona Wilkinson eight years ago.

Kamran Elin is wanted
in connection with that murder.

I think Robbie took that gun...

..gave it to Hannah,

not realising that the evidence
on it could bring down

not only Kamran Elin,
but the entire OCG.

OK,
then why would Robbie take the gun?

To cover his back maybe? Leverage?

Guilt? Whatever the reason...

..that gun has to be
what Benchdale are looking for.

You know me, Roy,
I'm aching to take down Benchdale,

but this has none of their
hallmarks. They hit clean and fast.

Hannah's death was sloppy, and,
as you said yourself, personal.

You really think this gun
could be why she was killed?

If it links Elin to
Fiona Wilkinson's murder, then yes.

We both know what it means to him.

He wouldn't think twice
about having Hannah killed.

Look, the investigation into that
handgun went cold months ago, but...

..if you're sure,
then you've got to find that gun.

Play!
Not today.

Please!

Please!
BRAKES SCREECH

Ava!

Get off! Get off me!

Ava!
Mum!

Ava, get in the house.

Get in the house!

KNOCKING

Roy, a call's just come in.

A young woman
matching Lauren's description

has just jumped from a speeding car.

Now, she's alive,
but she's seriously injured.

She's on her way
to Peacehaven General.

Seems like Lauren saw an opportunity
to escape, and she took it.

She's brave.

If she hadn't jumped,
Albazi would have killed her.

The thing I don't get is, if the
shooting happened three months back,

why would Benchdale
target Lauren and Hannah now?

Just doesn't...

Erm... Lauren's things.

The password for the phone
is Ava's birthday.

Thanks, Margaret.

Just... catch the bastards.

Lauren. Look,
I know Benchdale got to Robbie,

and... I'm so very sorry.

He was only trying put it right.

Put what right?

For the girl.

Who got shot.

Amelia Pardoe.

So he took the gun
and gave it to his sister?

Hannah always knew what to do.

And after he'd given it to her?

He disappeared.

But there's no escaping them.

They're watching.
They're always... watching.

So then what happened?

They found him,

and they tortured him
to get the truth...

that Hannah had the gun?

Yeah.

Except...

Except that Hannah
didn't have the gun.

What?

If she didn't have the gun,
where was it?

She'd already handed it in.

Handed it in to... who?

To the police.

Lauren, are you absolutely sure
about this?

100%.

Who did she give it to?

I don't know.

All I know is...

..she handed it in.

It all went quiet.

And now she's dead.

Is she telling the truth? That
someone at East Sussex is corrupt?

PHONE BUZZES

Bella. No evidence
of the gun being handed in.

No record of Hannah contacting
the police. There's no paper trail.

Is someone manipulating the records?

'Possibly.'

Boss, we've had a call come in
through uniform.

A dashcam's captured
a suspicious male,

coming in and out of the
side entrance of Lewiston Mansions

on the night that Hannah died.

'It looks a lot like the guy
we caught on the doorbell cam.'

And the dashcam owner?
'Chris Haddock,

'of Chris Haddock's Motors
in Lewiston Gardens.

'Nick's on his way there now.'
OK, thanks.

OK, here we go.

There. See him?

He hangs about a bit...

..and then he leaves again
about half an hour later.

Very dodgy.

I can take that memory card
to Enhancement if you want.

Yeah.

And if you're going that way,
check in on Lauren. OK.

PHONE BUZZES

PHONE BUZZES

Grace.

Yes, hello there. One of
your officers, DC Nick Nicholl,

just dropped off some footage
with us.

'But there's a problem -
the drive appears to be corrupted.'

What do you mean, corrupted?

Sir, there's no footage on there.
Someone's wiped the file

and tried to make it look
like a technical failure.

What?

No. That's impossible, that's...

When Nick's car pinged
at Lewiston Mansions, he came to me,

told me it's because he was staying
at a B&B opposite.

I don't understand.

Was that to divert attention
away from himself?

He then volunteered to take Chris
Haddock's footage to Enhancement.

And he has access
to the taskforce records.

Yeah.
Shit!

DC Nick Nicholl.
I'm here to see Lauren Packham.

SIREN BLARES

Roy, I'm at the harbour now.
Sonar sweep brought up a laptop.

Checking the serial number.

Yeah, Roy, we've got it.
It's Hannah's. Bringing it in.

The CCTV footage from the side
entrance to Lewiston Mansions,

I said there was an error code.

OK, I checked the vandalised camera
and it was still running,

and that footage arrived
into CID just fine.

Roy, it was deleted internally,

and Nick's log-in details
were attached to it.

Excuse me.

What's happening, Jim, are you good?

Go grab yourself a coffee
if you want.

Nick!

Stop!

Your car at Lewiston Mansions...

The CCTV and dashcam footage,
both deleted.

Covert calls and texts.

I've seen the change in you, Nick.

Look, the, erm...

..the CCTV and dashcam...

I don't know.

I can't explain that one.

But the other stuff, erm...

So, Jen's kicked me out.

We were fighting about money
and bills,

and it's all got a little bit
out of control, you know?

She wants to move back to Scotland
to be closer to my folks,

and I just can't do it, you know?

My life is here.

I haven't seen my little boy
in three weeks.

That's a lifetime for a little kid.

The calls and texts are to Jen.

Your phone will verify that,
I presume?

Are you serious?

Come on, Roy, you don't believe me?

Your phone, Nick.

I'm sorry. I don't want to do this.
I have no choice.

I'm removing you from this inquiry.

From this moment on,
you're suspended.

And I'm gonna need
your warrant card.

Look, I do not want
to believe it, either...

..but he had means
to manipulate that paper trail.

How could he have even known Hannah?

SIGHS

Oh, no.

At the risk of
throwing him under the bus...

..Sara did mention to me
that she'd met Hannah

at the Police Commissioner's Dinner
last year.

He could've met her there?

Would there be photographs?

I can check.

OK.

For our eyes only, Glenn.

Yeah?

Yeah.

No doubt you're aware already,

but you should both know that
a serving East Sussex police officer

is suspected of working
with Benchdale OCG.

The same police officer
may also be implicated

in Hannah Belling's murder.

Well, what's that gotta do
with Nick?

What, you don't think...
I don't think anything, Bella.

It's an ongoing investigation.

It's not Nick.

You know that, Roy.

Well, I've got Hannah's laptop.
I'll see what I can recover.

That'll prove it.

Boss, I spoke to Chris Haddock.

He's backed up the dashcam footage.

And there's this guy,
Tim Weatherley,

that I met from training.

He's a super recogniser.

He can identify someone
from, like, an ear lobe.

I'd like for Tim to have a look
at the footage. If that's OK?

Yeah, it's a good idea, Vee.

Call him.
Already have. He's on the way.

EXHALES

KNOCKING

Tim Weatherley's here.

OK.

Vee,

the skin cell DNA samples that
came back as crime scene personnel,

do you know what time
the forensic swabs were taken?

Let me just check.

Yeah.

The samples were logged at 10:43am.

Tim?

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace.
Thanks for coming.

This way.

KNOCKING

Come in.

Cassian. I'd like to introduce you
to Tim Weatherley.

Good to meet you, Sir.

Hi.

Tim's a super recogniser
with the Met.

I'm hoping he'll help us identify
a man caught on dashcam

leaving the side entrance
to Lewiston Mansions

on Wednesday night.

Well, we'll take all the help
we can get.

And, Sir,
I'm sorry to have to tell you this,

but there's something
you should know.

The person Tim
is looking to identify...

it's Nick Nicholl.

But he's a key member
of the taskforce.

With full access to intel.
I am aware of that.

You have evidence?

I do.

Nick tried to delete the footage.

Fortunately,
the owner made a back-up.

HE SCOFFS

I see.

Look, it goes without saying

that this needs to remain
in the strictest confidence.

And you'll keep me updated
on any developments, yes?

Of course, Sir.

SIGHS

All right,
show Tim to the viewing suite.

This way.

Take your time.

When, and if,
you make an identification,

call me - just me.

No-one else. Do you understand?

Yes, I understand.

PHONE BUZZES

Glenn.

Sara's given me the photos.
We've got him.

Any luck?

Unfortunately not.

The grime on the windscreen's
just too heavy.

Oh, that's disappointing.

Apologies for wasting your time.

Not at all.

I'll let Detective
Superintendent Grace know.

You'll be needing these.

Good to have you back.

Did you bring the photos?

'The person you have called
is not available.

'Please leave a message
after the tone.'

BRAKES SCREECH

When did you figure out
it was Cassian?

When I checked
the police elimination database.

The skin sample results
were negative against the suspect.

Cassian knew that would place him
at the crime scene,

so basically all he had to do
was show up and he was covered.

But the log recorded him
arriving at 11:07am,

and the samples were sent to the lab
at 10:43am.

His DNA was there before he was.

You asked me if I could get into
Hannah's computer.

Cassian erased the hard drive
before he dumped it...

..but I did manage
to get into her emails.

There's loads from Cassian's
personal account.

And check this out,
it looks like Hannah enabled

the video diary function on the Heal
Remedy app when Cassian came over.

She recorded it?

Yep, and the app sent the file
to her email.

HANNAH: 'You told me
you'd arrest them.

'You promised me.'

CASSIAN: 'It's a complex
investigation, Hannah.

'Let the police do their jobs.'
'And what about me? What do I do?

'Wait for them to kill me?'
'No. No. I know you're scared.

'But you have to trust me.'

'Three months, you've had that gun.

'Three months, Cassian!

'If you won't find out what the hell
is taking them so long,

'then I will.'

'I'm afraid I can't let you
do that.'

'Cassian, what are you...
Cassian, get away from me!'

GRUNTING

SHE CRIES OUT

SHE GASPS

HE SIGHS

He orchestrated all of it.

Planted Corin's hair at the flat...

..tampered with the CCTV...

..and he attached
your log-in details.

And the dashcam.

Before I took the memory card
to enhancement,

I swung by CID to make a copy
of it on a pen drive.

Jen called, so I left it copying
while I spoke to her.

Cassian must have erased it
while I was on the phone.

PHONE BUZZES

Bella?

'Tim Weatherley's car's
been rammed off the road.

'Whoever hit him left him for dead.
And someone's taken his phone.'

And the other vehicle involved
is one of our pool cars.

It was taken
without being signed out.

We're tracking it now.

Send me the coordinates.

BELLA: 'We've tracked the car
to just off the South Lanes.

'Uniform are there now.
No sign of Cassian.'

MAN: Seven to control,
we've found the car.

It's parked on Ship Street.

Shit!

Bella, I've got him.
He's by the Hippodrome.

Cassian, stop!

Come on, show yourself!

CLATTERING

Cassian, stop!

You don't stop, do you?

Why, Cassian?

You know nothing.

I know you've been working
with Benchdale,

I know you took the gun from Hannah,
and I know you killed her.

I know you tried to frame
two innocent people,

including Nick, your own colleague.

You think that I had a choice?

If you were in over your head,
you could have come to me.

CASSIAN SCOFFS

Don't flatter yourself, Roy.

Someday,
Benchdale will get what's coming,

but it won't be from me
and it won't be from you.

With that gun,
we could have brought them down.

Where is it?
What have you done with it?

I kept it...

..for insurance.

What is it they've got on you?

It must be quite something.

You really wanna know?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I really do.

I'd be careful what you wish for,
Roy.

No, Cassian!

Cassian, don't!

Don't, please don't.

Don't.

HE SOBS

It's over.

No. No!

Ow! Oh!

Ah!

GRUNTS

KNOCKING

Yeah?

DOOR OPENS

How are you doing, old timer?

Yeah.

OK.

SIGHS

Look, Roy, there's, er...

..there's something
that you need to see.

You know the footage from the
side entrance to Lewiston Mansions?

It kept bothering me.

I knew that I'd seen that code
before.

Glenn, what is it?

I remembered.

I had the same problem with the CCTV
from around the police station...

..back when
I was looking into Alvin Smallbone.

That footage...
had the exact same error code.

He's deleted CCTV footage before.

Show me.

Hey! Roy! Roy, stop!

Don't.

Open the door.

You knew Sandy was alive.

All this time...

..and you said nothing.

Why?

You know why.

I do.

But I wanna hear you say it.

EXHALES

I'm waiting.

Yes.

I was having an affair with Sandy.

The question you should be asking
is why?

Well, why don't you tell me?

Because you weren't there.

I was doing my job.

They needed me.
Sandy needed you.

More than you know.

Well, maybe if she hadn't been
in your bed, then...

Then what?

What would you have done, Roy?

Would you have paid the £200,000

that she owed Roel Albazi
and Kamran Elin?

That's a lie.

She was gambling.

Drowning in debt.

And you know how powerful Albazi
and Elin were,

we couldn't touch them, even then.

They were going to kill her.

Her..

and...

her unborn child.

If I'd known,
she could have come to me.

She could've talked to me.

Oh, come on, Roy.
You were chasing promotion,

wanting the perfect house,
the perfect life.

I didn't care about any of that.
You did.

She knew she couldn't rely on you.

Her only option was to disappear.

So I got her a new identity.

She promised she would
let me know when she was safe,

but...

..I never heard from her.

So you accused me of murder?

Well, for all I knew,
you'd found out. Killed her.

That's bullshit.
No, it's true.

I had no idea
what had happened to her.

Until she came back.

But Benchdale were watching.

And once she was dead, her debt...

..it had to be paid.

I had no choice.

So you dirtied your badge...

..for Elin?

Well, better that than end up dead.

It was only meant to be
a few favours.

Until Hannah.

She came after me about that gun.
I couldn't let it all fall apart.

Don't you see, Roy...

..Hannah Belling died...

..because I tried to protect Sandy
when you couldn't.

I should have let you die.

At last.

Something we agree on.

How did I miss it?

Cassian's right. I should've
known Sandy was in trouble.

I should have protected her.

Maybe she felt the same way.

Maybe she just wanted
to protect you, and Bruno.

Must've taken some courage

to walk away
from everything she knew and loved.

I've, erm, been thinking.

About what the doctor said.

I guess I'm just scared...

..that you can do everything right
and it can still go wrong.

Feels like my ribs are broken.
I look OK, but...

..every breath still hurts.

So we take our time...

..and then we decide.

I'm happy if it's just you and me.

And Bruno?

And Bruno.

Would that be OK for now?

Cleo, we're a family.

No matter what happens.
