Heartbeat, why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat, why does a love chip stay in my memory?

by my name

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Spit it out.

What? Well, sit here there like a Cheshire cat.

It's enough to put a man off his ale.

You know that week's leave I've got booked at the end of the month?

Yeah.

Mallorca.

You jammy beggar.

Yeah, it's our honeymoon.

Oh, I can see Jackie investing in her bathing costume even now.

She, uh, she doesn't know about it yet.

A surprise.

Hiya.

You look terrible.

Thanks very much.

I had a bit of a bump when I was diving yesterday. It's nothing to worry about.

Do not get a kiss.

Oh, please.

Harry.

Frankie.

Frank. Hmm?

The morning when I was doing the washing, I found this in the pocket of

trousers.

Ah. It's a better slip.

Back up.

You promised, Frank. No more gambling.

Lock it with a one -off.

It won't happen again.

Hiya.

You, sweetheart, work too hard.

I enjoy it.

Another.

You know what you need?

A holiday.

Tell me about it.

And, uh, following up, I thought... No, actually, Mike, if you don't mind, I've

got a meeting first thing. I need to get this straight in my head.

Sure. Uh... No problem.

Excuse me, sir. Can I have a word?

What now?

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Pull!

Oh, that's all we need.

Is anybody in it?

No.

This was better stuff. Tie down the details.

No, let's do it on the way back. We don't want to keep his large ship

Okay.

The week's wages were in there.

In an unlocked drawer.

All that money.

Stuffed into a drawer like a pair of socks.

I suppose all the workers on the estate knew about it.

Lord Ashfordly always pays cash.

Same day, every week.

Ventress, you'd better run a check with Division on all staff and get up at the

hall. Yes, Sarge.

Bellamy, Bradley, get up there and interview them.

Sarge.

Chop -chop, then.

Rise and shine.

Lying there like a great puddin'. You're missing the best part of the day.

Your breakfast is getting cold.

Andy?

Andy!

How you ever pass your test, I shall never know.

I think I'll buy you a new hat for Christmas and all.

Oh, thanks. Hey, that one with them Williams.

Oh, Williams.

You know, like Benny, right?

Benny who?

Benny from Crossroads.

Oh, him, yeah.

I'm surprised your mother ever let you stay up that late.

Hey, what's that?

Manor from Everham, as far as we're concerned.

It's a lot of old child.

No fooling you, is there, David?

Come on.

There's nobody about. Let's get it transferred from that lorry to ours.

I'll do that. That's a proper nicking.

Of course it's not nicking. It is. It's not. It is. This is not nicking. It's

salvaging, isn't it? Because, look, the back wheels are in water, aren't they?

Therefore, maritime law prevails.

Marriou? Not Marriou. Maritime. The law of the sea.

Which states that if a captain leaves his ship or vessel, the cargo thereon...

can be salvaged by the finders. Now, the captain, in this case the lorry driver,

has left his ship or vessel, in this case the lorry, right?

Therefore, the cargo, in this case the coal, can be salvaged by the finders,

which in this case is us. So get salvaging.

Hang on, I'll get my shoes and socks wet. Well, take them off then!

I'll get my feet wet.

You don't have to leave yourself wide open. Will you get cracking before the

captain comes back? Go on.

Are you going to stop and give us a hand?

Of course I am. I'm going to bring the lorry nearer so you don't have to drag

so far.

Get on with it.

I was

in the woods till about nine.

Doing what?

I'm a gamekeeper, lad.

Right.

Were you on your own?

Yeah.

So you haven't got an alibi?

No. Did you notice anything suspicious where you were on your own?

No. But you would tell us if you had.

Naturally.

Right. Well, we'll be in touch.

Whenever you like.

Mrs MacReady?

You didn't tell me you'd have been a break -in last night.

No time to. I only found out myself this morning.

You were back later than usual.

Was I?

It wasn't me.

It's bait manager and the gamekeeper, Don.

Who next?

Kitchen staff up at the house.

Space is business.

Living a life of privilege.

Phil.

I don't like him.

Me neither.

It doesn't mean he did it.

Is he going to be OK, Doctor?

There's abrasion on his chest where he bumped himself.

He's ruptured his spleen.

So there's no time to lose.

We'll take you straight to theatre for a laparotomy and a splenectomy.

The nurse has some forms you'll find.

She needs details of your next of kin.

She knows all I've got.

So it's out of them and into them.

That's right.

Why? If for no other reason, because I say so.

And because if that coal is found in those sacks, it could be seen as

incriminating evidence.

Oh, you said that this was south, uh, law of the sea.

Well, it is.

But Craddock and his mob might not be as well versed in maritime law as you and

me, so let's back it each way, shall we?

I'm very sorry to hear that, sir.

Yes, I appreciate the seriousness of the situation.

Well, we'll make some inquiries and keep in touch.

What?

That lorry that we passed.

We forgot to go back.

What lorry, PC Ventress?

It was on the way to Lord Ashfordly's. A coal lorry.

It had broken down, Sarge.

And you didn't stop?

No, Sarge. We meant to go back.

But we forgot.

And now its load has been stolen.

Splendid.

The mystery of the missing coal.

Has a certain smell about it, wouldn't you say?

I would, Sarge.

And where shall we start this particular investigation?

How about with the usual suspects?

What does this coal actually look like, then, Alf?

Are you trying to be funny?

Oh, I wouldn't dream of it.

The sacks were clearly marked.

Oh, it should be easier for you to find them, then, shouldn't it?

But you don't know anything.

Oh, no, no, nothing.

No change there, then.

Mind you, if I do hear anything, I'll let you know.

I won't hold my breath.

I wish you would.

Come on, get along, then.

You've got no time for tit. You've got to shift that coal.

For now?

No, in about three weeks' time. Get on with it, will you?

Open it.

Open it.

Where's the money?

The money I was saving to send our Julie to college. Where is it? How do I know?

Who else could have taken it?

You've stolen it, haven't you?

Frank, tell me the truth.

I borrowed it.

So you lied last night when you said it was a one -off?

I got in a bit too deep with the bookies. I needed to borrow the money.

all you borrowed?

I went to the moneylenders as well.

Not again.

But look, Mary, it's all sorted. And I'll pay you back every penny, I

Why were you back so late last night?

There was some trouble down at the estate. Don't lie to me!

It's not just my money you've stolen, is it?

You took the money from the estate office.

No! Did you?

He said it's too wet.

Too wet?

There's more water in his ale.

What are we going to do, then?

We shall have to try and dry it out somehow.

Come on, get in.

If madame would care to sit down, perhaps I

could tempt her with a little apéritif.

You can't use them.

They'll be useful for an out afterwards.

Dry it on some straw or something.

All right, Mr Gregg. I shouldn't have hit you too long.

Hey, aren't you stopping to give a sound?

Somebody's got to go and drum up some orders, haven't they? And by the way,

you're bagging it, don't put too much in.

They're on the light side.

Easy going.

Right,

now, this is our last chance. So try not to muck it up.

Right. And only deal with Gina, right?

Gina, yeah.

Definitely. Don't have hope to do with Blaketon.

Why not Mr Blaketon? Because Gina is the licensee.

And because Mr. Blaketon is an ex -copper with a nasty, suspicious little

Well, go on, get on with it.

Does his wife know?

That what if something happens?

Nothing's gonna happen.

He's had the operation and he's fine.

Ah, yes, David.

Gina.

Yes. Well, she's the licensee.

Yes. Is she gone?

Can I talk to Gina, please, Mr Blaketon?

I haven't got time for this.

Gina!

Yes, David.

Mum? What's happened?

Nothing for kids to worry about. What is it?

Tell me.

Please.

It's Dad, isn't it?

Is that Mrs. Ryan?

I'm sorry to trouble you, but it's about your husband, Andy.

Well, I'm afraid he's been taken to hospital.

How long has it been since we had a proper evening together like this?

Too long.

Why is life so busy?

Coffee? No, sit down.

I've got a present for you first.

A present?

Close your eyes and open your hands.

You can open your eyes now.

Go on.

Majorca! The hotel's right on the beach.

The week after next?

I told them it was our honeymoon, even though it is a bit belated, so they're

giving us a suite to the Sea View. No extra charge.

What is it?

I can't go.

What do you mean?

No, no, we agreed the time off months ago.

I booked leave straight away.

It's my big case, Mike.

You should have reminded me. You should have remembered.

Oh, look, come on.

But you're not the only solicitor at that practice.

But he's my client.

He's a very important client.

What, more important than us?

If I go to the police, they'll arrest him. He'll lose his job. We'll lose our

home. Maybe he'll go to jail. Mum. But if I don't go to the police, then I'm

guilty too.

Concealing a crime is against the law.

They'll arrest me then. What will you do? Both parents in jail. Stop this. I

don't know what to do. You don't have to do anything.

What if they find out? You don't have to help them.

Matt.

Matt.

I'm off now.

Do I get a kiss?

I better not.

Look if it was any other week, Mark.

You've had a very narrow escape.

Sitting round a pool, drinking cocktails all day.

You'd have been bored to death.

Death by pina colada.

And there's a fourth.

If only.

Your coal lorry.

My coal lorry, sir.

I've got the National Coal Board on the phone and they're not happy.

They're not happy at all.

Right, Sarge.

Yesterday, when you went up to our friend, Mr Greengrass, did you have a

look round?

Peaceful entrance.

Well, I suppose I could have been a bit more thorough.

Would you like me to go and have another look?

Yes, I would.

And how about our friends up at the hall?

Well, Division are running a check, but so far no one up there has nicked so

much as a jelly baby.

Forensics? Still waiting, sir.

Any joy with the interviews?

Well, my money's on the gamekeeper, Sarge. Well, may I remind you, PC

that what we need is... Evidence, Sarge.

Exactly Mary

Be

fine, I promise you I've had that before On my mother's grave. I've heard that

before, too. All right, on your mother's grave.

It's a lot of fingerprints.

I was wearing gloves. Look, I'm in and out of that office all day.

There's nothing to connect me with the robbery.

We're in the clear. All we have to do is keep on up.

Look, you just have to trust me.

Morning. Hello.

Is your husband in?

He's just missed him. Is it important?

No, it can wait. I'll catch him later.

Actually, Mrs McCready, it's just a formality. I have to talk to everyone on

estate. It won't take a minute.

Come in.

I might have known you were behind this.

I'm just a driver, Gina.

And I'm a doll. I wish you were. You could exterminate Blaketon. But don't

about this, love. It's all legal, isn't it, David?

Oh, yes, the captain had abandoned his vessel.

What?

He's going through a phase.

If there is something on your mind, it will help to talk about it, I promise

you.

Nothing like easing your conscience.

Yes, Constable.

The longer this goes on, Mary, the worse it's going to get. You're a sensible

woman. Why don't you just tell me so we can sort this out?

I really don't know what you're talking about.

Well, I think you do.

And you and I both know...

The only solution is for you to tell me the truth.

How long are you going to go on protecting someone who will ultimately

down?

Is there anything else you want to ask me?

No.

Only today's my day for changing the beds.

You can usually find me in the police house.

Why would I want to do that?

I think you know why.

I'm off to the hospital, Oscar.

Oh, right.

Where did all that coal come from, Gina?

Last time I looked, we were nearly out.

Oh, yeah.

I meant to talk to you about that.

He knows.

He can't, though.

You weren't here.

He's no proof.

The money was an old note and I've already paid it over.

All we have to do is sit tight and keep our mouths shut.

We? We?

I've never done anything wrong in my life, so why do I feel like a criminal?

Listen.

You're quiet.

That's what he said.

Why don't you go and have a lie down?

I'll tidy up here.

What do you want, Blaketon?

A word.

I bet there'll be more than one.

The subject is coal.

Which one? Nat King or Porter?

Would you like to come through, please?

Hiya. Hiya, love.

How are you feeling?

Oh, not too bad.

Are you pleased to see me?

Of course I am.

You again, Alf.

People are starting to think we're engaged.

See? Oh, no thanks.

You look tired, Andy.

I'd better go, eh? No, don't.

I'm fine, honest.

You sure?

Yeah.

As you can see, Alf, there's no coal here.

Only more there isn't.

You won't mind if I have a look round, then?

Have you got a warrant?

I'm only kidding.

You'll be my guest.

What's this, then?

Well, it's... It's a coal sack.

It's empty.

I know. Well, it's...

It's been a bit nippy recently.

Where is it, Claude? I burned it.

Thank you, David.

Thank you, David.

I don't think he's ever heard of salvation.

Oh, and it's not a word they'll be using about you if you don't learn to keep it

shut.

Mr Blaketon, in possession of stolen goods.

He's not the licensee. No. And David said that he sold it to Gina.

Still Mr. Blaketon's premises, though.

You've been off to check.

I thought I'd leave that to you, Sarge.

It's a hard job, but someone's got to do it.

Worth it to see the look on Mr. Blaketon's face.

After you, Sergeant.

Mind you... Head.

Well, I'm expecting a delivery sometime this afternoon, as you can see. We're

fresh out.

How very convenient.

I'll be back again tomorrow.

Bye, love.

Ta -ra.

What have you done with my mother's watch?

Nothing.

I left it there like I always do so I could do the washing up. Only you sent

upstairs to have a sleep.

I don't know. I haven't seen it. I swear.

You're lying.

No. My mother was right all along. I should have listened to her.

You're nothing but a liar.

I wanted to win the money back so our Julie could go to college. It was a dead

cert, Mary.

You pawned my mother's watch.

Mary?

You best met him.

Well, congratulations, you got your man.

Oh, and while you're out celebrating, spare a thought for my wife.

I might deserve this.

But what about her?

My daughter takes her exams, you see, at the beginning of June.

A -level.

I can see your problem.

If we could just stay in the house till then.

She needs good grades to get into university.

I understand.

Thank you. But my new gamekeeper, when I appoint him, will need somewhere to

live.

There's the empty cottage on the far side of the woods.

It's damp.

Maybe me and Julie could move there.

I don't think the other workers on the estate will take too kindly to that.

After all, your husband did steal their wages.

Please.

Just till Julie's done her exams.

I'm sorry.

exams you'll still be able to do them maybe you can go and stay with a friend

something well what about you i don't know how will you earn a living i

don't know you can't do anything i could try at your age i'm not that old

i'll have to leave school get a job and look after you you won't i'll

manage why did you have to go to the police you've ruined my whole life

And your dad's ruined mine.

But you chose him. I'd have been lumbered.

Where are you going?

Out.

I should never have married him, Mum.

You were right.

Mike, about this holiday... Not now, Jackie. Look, I've talked to the other

partners... Not now, OK?

OK.

I'm very sorry about your wife.

Sorry?

What are you sorry about? You solved your case.

It's just a job to you, isn't it?

You might just as well have put that shotgun in her mouth and pulled the

trigger.

You lying little... Do you know I can explain? You can't explain away three

kids. I was going to tell you about them. No, you weren't.

You're stuck in there.

It's over, Andy.

I never want to see you again.

Right, we've got all the details.

We'll be in touch.

You started that sudden death report?

No, Sarge, I'll do it now.

Nasty business.

Report on my desk by lunchtime, please.

Are you sure you're all right?

I'm fine.

Thanks. Hello, Jackie.

Phil.

Tea.

I just heard about Mary McCready.

It must have been horrible.

I've seen worse.

Why didn't you tell me about it last night?

You didn't ask.

Mike.

Look, we can't talk about it here.

No, you're right.

We can't.

Well, can you come out for a cup of coffee?

I've got work to do.

No, just for ten minutes.

I'm working.

Aidensfield Arms.

Oh, hello, Andy.

Oh, no, I'm afraid she's not here.

I'll tell her you called.

Oh.

Oh, that's the least I could do.

Oh, no.

What do you want, Greengrass?

Yeah, I brought you a bill.

I beg your pardon?

It's a bill.

for the collection of unwanted coal.

I'd stop right there if I were you, Greengrass.

Hey, I've got overage, you know. That lorry don't run on fresh air. Unless you

want me to get Sergeant Craddock down here, I'm sure he'd like to hear what

you've got to say.

Hope the miners go on strong.

Oh, hello, Alf. Bit early for you.

What can I get you?

Nothing, thanks.

Actually, I've got a favour to ask you.

I thought you might like some company.

No, I'm fine, thanks.

If you want to get rid of me, you'll have to thump me.

Most of the time, it's just ordinary coppering.

Then every so often, the case comes along, and there's no ordinary anymore.

Well, so what do you do then? How do you manage?

Easy. Get up, put your uniform on and carry on.

But you can't just keep it all locked up inside, can you?

What else can you do?

Talk about it?

Why not?

Once you've started, don't tell him where you might end up.

You could throw your way into the funny farm.

So what can I do to help him?

Just act normally.

Yes.

Bad business.

That's what Sergeant Craddock said.

That I can cope.

I dare say you can cope.

We all have to cope.

But some of the things we see, eh?

Some of the things we experience as coppers, let's not talk about them.

Let's keep them all locked away inside, up here.

Oscar, I appreciate you coming over, but I've got work to do.

Well, if you need me, give me a ring.

Thanks.

chap found over and I know he's lucky not to get a custodial sentence and then

as I'm packing my bag he only comes over to me and asks for his money back.

He says to me I haven't done my job properly.

Only reckons he should have got off.

Are you all right, Mike?

No.

No, I'm not all right.

I've had enough of you in that job.

What? It's all you ever think about.

Not true. It's all you ever talk about.

Well, my work's important to me. Really?

Well, I'd never have guessed.

What, more important to you than I am? No, of course not.

No?

You, uh... You're thinking of working on this little lot tonight, eh?

I might have to do a little, yes.

You see, you work all day, you work all night, so tell me...

Where do I fit in? All right, I won't work tonight.

You can do what you like, all I care.

No, Mike!

Watch the water falling down.

Falling down outside your head.

Hello, Jackie. Have you seen Mike?

No, he hasn't been in tonight.

Right. Bye.

They can still dance.

Yeah.

Just a sec.

It's for you.

It's Mike.

Oscar?

I saw her.

Then the gun.

And I knew.

I knew what was coming.

but I thought I could get to her in time.

So I started to run.

Then I heard... a shot.

I tried to convince myself I hadn't.

That it was... something else.

Somewhere else.

I was just... I was just hoping she hadn't done it.

I was telling myself she'd be okay.

Then I saw her.

She was just lying there.

With that neck to her.

I just can't get it out of my mind.

Take it, sir.

You haven't talked to Jackie about this.

I never talk to my wife much either.

Not about the job.

Spare her the details.

But, uh... Sometimes I think back.

And I wonder, I wonder that if maybe I'd talked to her

a bit more, if I'd included her a bit more,

I might still have a wife and a son.

Don't make the same mistake, Mike.

It's not worth it.

Her husband said it was my fault that she killed herself.

What? I know.

See, I was so keen on getting a result.

That's all that mattered.

You see, I... I felt I put too much pressure on her.

But you're a copper. You were just doing your job.

I know.

But... It's hard sometimes, that's all.

But we're in this together.

For better, for worse, remember?

I shouldn't have said those things to you earlier. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, too.

Heartbeat, what do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat, what does a love kiss say in my memory?
