If I want a career in fashion, London's where I need to be.

"You are invited to attend an interview

"for the position of assistant dresser

"for Her Royal Highness The Duchess of York."

This is Jane Andrews, Ma'am.

Did you find it too grim, "oop north"?

Think I'd be better suited to a palace.

It's the way she said it.

"I've run you a bath, Ma'am." LAUGHTER

Just look at her shoes!

I'm just not really feeling good, Mum.

SOBBING

Please don't go starting all that again.

It's a chance to start afresh.

Well, what would you suggest?

Perhaps something more fitted, more vibrant colour?

You're a lot like me, Jane. You've got spirit.

Whoo! Could I possibly interest you in a night-cap?

He doesn't see the point of getting involved

unless it's going somewhere.

I very much fear THAT has divorce written all over it.

Cos a life without passion? Well, that's no life at all.

Her Majesty says I'm to cease all contact immediately.

It'll just be you and me, Jane. Assuming you'll stand by me?

Always, Ma'am.

It's only a job after all.

You could find something a bit less all-consuming.

I don't want an ordinary life!

As from now, we're treating Jane Andrews

as the prime suspect in this investigation.

Oh, Jane. However did it come to this?

♪ Baby, don't hurt me

♪ Don't hurt me no more

♪ What is love?

♪ Yeah, yeah

♪ Baby, don't hurt me... ♪

Oh, my dear. Come, come. Quickly, quickly.

♪ No more

♪ What is love? ♪

I kept telling them it wasn't what it looked like.

It was just a bit of harmless fun. He was being Prince Charming.

The... shoe fits, and all that.

Of course.

Every single headline is about John and bloody toe-sucking.

It's been relentless.

Put it out of your mind. It will soon be forgotten.

And so will this man.

He's not for you. Is that right?

Yes, well, it does seem to have reached a natural end.

It is as I said. He has served his purposes.

Well, that's good to know, isn't it, Jane?

SARAH GRUNTS Yes, Ma'am.

So, you can tell all that from the cards?

From the cards, the energies in the room.

The messages come in many different ways.

She's never wrong. You should ask her something.

Oh, I wouldn't want to.

You have a question? Ask it.

I just... wonder if there could...

be someone out there.

Someone who really is my perfect match.

Uh-oh. But you've already got a husband.

You seek a soulmate?

I just imagined being with someone who...

wants the same things,

you know, shares the same dreams.

Give your hands.

I feel a strong presence.

A male presence.

Very virile. Lucky thing.

I see wine, candles...

I see where this is going.

This man will bring great passion into your life.

He will open up new worlds.

But once you meet him, there'll be no going back.

Thought you already had your happy ever after.

MUSIC: 'Everybody Wants To Rule The World' by Tears for Fears

REPORTERS CLAMOUR Sarah! Sarah, tell us.

What'd your fortune say? That's for me to know.

Another tall dark stranger on the horizon?

If there is, he's coming for my friend here.

Still enjoying single life, Ma'am?

Oh, yes, it's wonderful. Thanks for asking.

I'd recommend it to anyone.

Come on. Let's get out of here.

REPORTERS CLAMOUR

Jane.

REPORTER: Sarah, tell us!

REPORTER: Sarah, what happened to your friend from the villa?

DCI DOUGLAS: Now, that photo's got to be ten years old.

God knows where they found it.

But now they've linked her to the Royals,

they'll be crawling all over us.

It'll be yours truly having to deal with them.

DS SMART: Sir?

We're on the Six O'Clock News.

NEWSREADER: '..the search continues for his girlfriend, Jane Andrews,

'former employee and close personal confidante of the Duchess of York,

'who is understood to be deeply distressed by her disappearance.

'The police are appealing for information on her whereabouts,

'and the big question right now is,

'where in the world is Jane Andrews?'

JANE: So sorry Sarah couldn't be here to discuss the gala herself.

ALEKSANDRA: Oh, I understand.

She just has so much to deal with,

what with the separation and the house move.

I'm sure. So has she ANY servants left?

Literally a handful. I mean... Romenda Lodge is hardly the Palace.

We've been having to scrape by on an absolute skeleton staff.

We've really had to tighten our belts all round.

So no more lovely shopping trips on Concorde?

Not just at the moment.

It's been quite an adjustment. Mm.

But between you and me... Mm?

Basically running the whole show now.

Well, well done you.

And you said your husband's working there too?

Yes. Er, Sarah needed someone with financial expertise,

and Charles was looking for a change, so...

How lovely for you both, to be working together as a team.

Must be such fun.

For God's sake, Charles.

It's basic book-keeping. Get on with it.

How am I supposed to get on with it

when she doesn't keep any bloody receipts?

I don't know. Just do the best that you can.

This isn't what I signed up for, Janey. I don't...

We were meant to sit down together and make a proper financial plan.

Well, it looks like this publishing deal may go ahead.

Dear God. Not more helicopter stories.

No, actually. It's a biographical working of Queen Victoria's travels.

I'm sure that'll be a massive earner (!)

SARAH: Jane? Jane, are you there? I can't talk about this now.

Well, if she's going out for lunch, tell her to keep the receipt.

It'll write itself. All right, all right. That works.

Jane?! Bye. Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.

So, the plan is we leave on Friday for Germany,

and I shall follow in Victoria's footsteps.

A sort of spiritual pilgrimage. Oh, Ma'am, that's so exciting.

I know, so you'd better start packing. Of course.

And you can tell that penny-pinching husband of yours

that I'll need to release some funds. Yes, Ma'am.

And I don't care how "unwise" he thinks it is.

No, Ma'am. Testing times call for bold actions!

Absolutely, Ma'am.

How long will you be gone for?

Erm... Here, here.

JANE SIGHS I imagine it'll be at least a month.

It may be longer. They're still finalising the itinerary.

No doubt you'll both be living it up all over Europe.

Oh, for goodness sake.

This jealousy is getting really boring, you know?

No, it's not about that. Yeah, right.

I just think this type of stress and disruption,

it really isn't good for you.

What happens if you start feeling unwell again? I won't.

Well, I hope not, but we talked about maybe going to see someone.

Er, no, you talked about that.

Well, I just think if the doctor could give you

something for your nerves...

There is nothing wrong with my bloody nerves.

Janey, you know that's not true.

The only thing wrong with my life is you.

You're the one who makes me ill. You're the one who ruins everything.

It's like you'd rather my whole life be as dull and as drab as you are.

It's like I can't fucking breathe!

I-I'm not gonna fight with you. No, of course not.

God forbid, you'd have an actual emotion

or show some kind of fucking passion.

This isn't passion, Jane.

How would you know? You're like a fucking block of wood!

It's not passion. It's just never-ending drama.

If you're not screaming, you're sobbing,

or you're lying in the dark, practically bloody catatonic,

and I just... I just can't take much more of it.

Fine, then go! Leave. Go on, go and pack your things.

If I'm that much of a fucking nightmare, why are you with me?

But I think the trouble is, you don't want to be with me.

SHE GROANS I hate you!

How many?

SMART: 307 calls from the public so far.

96 of them reported sightings of Jane in the last 48 hours.

Jesus. Any of them credible?

There seems to be a cluster on the south coast. Yeah?

But there's also about 20 up near St Andrews.

Well, that narrows it down a bit.

KNOCKING PC MCGUIRE: Sir.

Are they the latest witness statements? Oh, no, Sir.

I think the team's still putting them into the computer.

So much for "speedier access to information", eh?

Yes, Sir.

There's a guy waiting to speak to you.

What "guy"?

He says he has information about Jane Andrews.

Terrific. So the nutjobs are now turning up in person.

Desk Sergeant thought he seemed pretty credible.

I'm sure. Probably saw her having tea with... Prince of Wales.

CHARLES: I-I didn't even know there was a problem

until I got a call from the Evening Standard.

DOUGLAS: Unfortunately, there has been a lot of, er, press interest.

The reporter assumed I knew what had happened.

And he just said you were looking for Jane.

Then I... Oh... CHARLES SIGHS

I learned there was a body involved.

As soon as I finished work, I came straight here.

Well, we appreciate you coming down, sir.

I just hadn't paid much attention, you see?

I mean, Janey, she... CHARLES CHUCKLES

She... She does tend to be rather dramatic. Right.

Although, with hindsight, I suppose she did sound quite distressed.

So you've spoken to her?

Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Several times.

I mean, I'll need to check exactly.

But I-I think she must have contacted me...

er, nine or ten times over the weekend.

Right, so these were all phone conversations? Er, no, no.

Some... some were calls, some text messages.

So what exactly did she say?

It's hard to remember exactly, but she was...

mainly talking about relationships

and how they never seemed to go

in the direction that she wanted them to.

The general impression I got was there'd been some sort of row.

Did she tell you where she was? No. No.

I did ask. She wouldn't say.

I could tell she was in a car.

PHONE RINGS Sorry.

Good God.

Is it Jane? Yeah.

Yeah, it, erm...

It says...

"What's wrong? All the press want me."

ALEKSANDRA: We are delighted to announce

she'll be donating a percentage of the proceeds

from her book Travels With Queen Victoria

to our beloved charity.

And now to say a few words,

the authoress herself, Sarah, Duchess of York.

APPLAUSE Are we good?

Here goes nothing.

Hello, everyone.

I really appreciate so many of you turning out

to welcome my little book into the world.

I, er... I say "little",

but as you can see, it is rather hefty.

LAUGHTER

No, but seriously...

Victoria has been a passion of mine since I was a girl,

and to have the chance to literally follow in her footsteps

and journey back through time has been a...

a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The chap with the glasses. That's the Italian gentleman?

It felt as though the spirit... The Count.

...of Victoria herself was leading me...

He's an absolute sweetheart. ...through the mountains.

But I was also fortunate to meet many wonderful people

on a more earthly plain.

CROWD MURMURS

The Duchess seems rather taken with him.

We all became fast friends.

And to have the support of a marvellous team -

not least my indefatigable assistant, Jane Andrews.

SCATTERED APPLAUSE Yes, yes, let's.

I think it's fair to say

both Jane and I were at something of a crossroads in our lives,

and this project came at the perfect time.

So thank you, Jane.

Victoria and I couldn't have done it without you.

LAUGHTER

Let's have some Champagne!

MURMURS OF AGREEMENT, APPLAUSE

Brava. Bravissima!

They look to be a little more than friends.

Well, the Count is a very charming companion.

What about you?

Now that you're a desirable divorcee.

Did you find yourself any companions on your travels?

Well, European men can be very attentive

and very persuasive.

Aren't you the lucky girl?

I, erm...

HE MOUTHS

Who's that?

Luis Castillo. Tall, dark and very charming.

Stepfather's in shipping, mother does all the charities.

Luis, darling. Aleksandra.

May I please introduce Jane Andrews? She works with the Duchess.

Well, how do you do? I'm surprised you two haven't met.

It's an oversight I'm delighted to remedy.

Aleksandra tells me you're in shipping?

Oh, amongst other things.

A man of many talents. HE CHUCKLES

Oh, you have something...

Lovely suit. Very gorgeous fabric.

Thank you.

Might I fetch you a glass of wine, Miss Andrews?

That would be lovely.

All right. Please... call me Jane.

Jane.

Well, clearly, she'd learned a few tricks on her travels.

BIRDS CHIRP

HE GROANS Oh.

Mm. It's time to get up, my love.

Not yet, it's still early.

Yes, but you need to go home...

and change before work.

Sarah won't mind if I'm a little late.

She says I work too hard as it is.

You have a most understanding boss.

Mm, she's more of a friend, really.

She always asks about you. She does?

Mm. She thinks you sound lovely.

Mm, well... I really am.

SHE GIGGLES

You should meet her properly sometime. Mm-hm.

All right. Five more minutes, then.

HE SIGHS HEAVILY

You know, I wouldn't always need to go home if I had some clothes here.

Ah, you mean the drawer that you ladies are always so keen on.

Well, I wouldn't need a whole drawer.

Maybe just a tiny little corner of a wardrobe. Right.

But where would I put all my beautiful suits?

They are very beautiful.

It's one of the first things that I noticed about you.

Well, wait till you see my new dinner jacket.

I won't have to wait long.

The gala next week?

I'm sorry, my love. Next week, I shall be in Greece.

Really? Yes.

You didn't mention it.

Oh, it's been arranged for some time.

I'm visiting some old friends.

That sounds like a fun trip. It should be.

Do you know what would make it even more fun?

Oh! Good morning, Ma'am.

Morning.

Shall I make some coffee? Claudia's fetching some.

Oh, excellent.

Luis opened a very nice bottle of wine last night,

and I have to admit I am suffering a bit this morning.

While I've got you, Ma'am,

I'm going to have to take a few days' leave next week.

Luis has a trip to the Greek islands, and he'd like me to go.

Next week? We've got the gala on Thursday.

I know. There's just a few last bits to arrange,

so I'll have everything done before I go.

FABRIZIO: Amore, are you ready? Oh, just a moment, Fabs.

Well, you'd better make sure that Claudia's across everything,

you know, assuming she doesn't mind picking up slack.

Oh, no, not at all, Ma'am.

There won't be any slack, Ma'am. I promise.

I really didn't think you'd mind.

I thought you'd be pleased I was having a break.

I was just saying to Luis this morning,

Sarah always says I work too hard.

I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness.

Well, I'm sure Claudia and I shall manage.

You enjoy your holiday.

Shall we go? Andiamo.

I mean, I haven't had a day off in nearly two years.

It's not like I'm being unreasonable, is it?

No. No, not at all. CLATTERING

Yeah, sorry about all this.

I just need to have everything labelled and couriered

before we leave.

I mean, it's all very well saying I should leave it to Claudia,

but the fact is, she wouldn't even know where to begin!

And then she starts piping up about "picking up the slack".

Like she would have a clue about what needs doing.

Er...

Jane. Jane, darling. Uh-huh?

If it's gonna cause difficulties, then, well...

perhaps you shouldn't come. What?

Well... No, no, it's fine. I'm nearly done.

Once I've finished, I won't give bloody Claudia another thought.

I promise. Right.

The list I gave her was perfectly clear,

but maybe I should call her just to check.

You already left two messages.

I know, but Claudia doesn't always check the machine.

And she needs to go through the diary tonight.

The Duchess needs to know what to expect.

Well, you're only away for a few days.

I'm sure it'll all be fine. You say that.

You have no idea how much can go wrong in a few days.

MAN: Yamas! Yamas!

GLASSES CLINK

LIVELY CHATTER

Did you, er... Did you want dessert?

No. I don't think so.

Why don't you have a siesta? Back at the villa? Try and relax.

Yeah, OK. Sounds good.

I'll ask Christos to order you a taxi.

You're not coming too?

No, I'm gonna have a few drinks with the boys.

I'll see you back there.

Every year, they let you back. LAUGHTER

SHE SIGHS

ENGINE DRONES IN DISTANCE

Hi, darling. Where have you been?

I told you, I was catching up with the boys.

It's been hours. HE SCOFFS

Not really. It's only seven o'clock.

Well, you could've called me. I've been sat there waiting.

I mean, why even invite me if you don't want to be with me?

I didn't... invite you.

What do you mean?

Well, the truth is, is that you invited yourself.

I was perfectly happy coming here alone.

And if I want to spend time with my friends,

then that's what I'll do.

I'm sorry. You said you wanted to show me the island.

You wanted me to meet your friends, because we're a couple.

That is what couples do. OK, Jane, look...

HE EXHALES SHARPLY

I've very much enjoyed our time together, but we're...

we're very different people. What?

And I-I just... I think...

I think we would be better as friends.

We're on holiday. We're in love.

Yeah, OK, well, I'm very fond of you as well, but...

No. No, please, you don't mean it. Jane...

Jane. We're happy together.

Jane. We're happy, for God's sake!

Yes, but it's not working for me any more!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It would be better if we just make a clean break.

No. No, no, no... Jane, Jane...

Jane, stop it. Jane, stop it! No, no...

Jane, stop THAT!

HE GRUNTS What is wrong with you?!

HE SIGHS This is completely unacceptable.

DOOR OPENS

LUIS: Genevieve? GENEVIEVE: Coming, darling. Sorry!

I wasn't sure about the pink. Oh, you look fabulous.

Thank you, darling.

I haven't made us late, have I? Not at all. We are right on time.

Here, let me get that for you.

Thank you. Did you remember the wine?

Mm, it's in the boot.

'I can't take your call right now, so please leave a message.'

LUIS: 'Jane? Jane, are you there?

'Look, I've just got back to the house, and I...

'I can't believe what you've...

'I mean, what were you thinking?!

'You can't just come into someone's home and...

And then I found him the next day, just laying outside.

I was appalled! SARAH LAUGHS

Oh. Hi, there.

Wasn't sure we'd see you today. Are you feeling better?

Yes. Much better, thank you.

Good stuff. Actually, can I just ask you something?

There's an entry here for Friday evening.

It looks like a booking for a private room. I'm...

That's right.

I put that in there. It's for my 30th.

I did send you an invitation.

Right. It's been arranged for months.

Super. Well, I'll be sure to remind the Duchess, but...

you know how busy she is at the moment.

Claudia, I need you. Coming, Ma'am.

I won't be long. FABRIZIO: No rush.

DISTANT LAUGHTER

Ciao, ciao.

Giovanna, you seem a little blue.

Me? No, I'm... I'm fine.

I hope that young man of yours is treating you well.

Actually, Luis and I aren't together any more.

Ah. I am so sorry to hear that.

Well, last time I was here, you were going on a holiday together.

Yes, well, that's where he decided to dump me.

Madonna Santa! You poor girl.

Clearly, that man is an idiot.

Thank you. HE CHUCKLES

You're very kind.

SHE SNIFFLES

Aw. Sorry.

It's my 30th birthday on Friday, and I planned this big party, and...

I didn't imagine I'd be going on my own.

These storms will pass. You'll see.

OK?

Fabs, you ready?

Absolutely, amore mio.

Oh, Aleksandra, you made it! Of course, darling.

Many happy returns.

Thank you. Erm, this is my friend Francesca.

Oh, lovely to meet you. Hello.

Francesca has her own hair salon. Does she really?

And this is Josh. We met at Ascot.

Well, in the Champagne tent, to be precise.

I do hope I haven't missed the Duchess?

No, not yet.

Talk of the devil...

Hi! Oh, hello, darling! Happy birthday.

Oh! Hello!

This is, er, fun. Yes.

JOSH: Hello. Oh.

Herself asked me to pass this on.

Aw. She had a clash.

Sweet. But she sends her best wishes.

Thank you. Er, do help yourself to a drink.

Oh! Don't mind if I do.

Aren't you going to open it?

Yes.

Oh, it's lovely.

So simple and discreet.

It's very tasteful.

Honestly, it looked like it had fallen out of a cracker.

Definitely cheap and cheerful. Oof!

And for such a significant birthday, too. Oh, dear.

Well, clearly, young Jane had fallen out of favour with the Duchess.

SCRUBBING

FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

Claudia? Is she up in her room?

Er, yes, but she's about to go out.

I just need to speak to her quickly. Actually, Jane, could I have a word?

Er, can it wait? I just need to speak to the Duchess...

I'm sorry. No, it can't.

What is it?

Well, I'm afraid we're going to have to let you go.

What?

It's no reflection on you personally.

It's a cost-cutting exercise.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

No, this can't be right. I need to speak...

I'm afraid that won't change anything.

I mean, you know the financial pressure she's under,

more than anyone.

Yes, I... I do, but...

And basically, something had to give.

And it might be a good thing.

Give you the chance to explore other options. Mm?

When?

You take your time. You'll want to pack up your things.

But I will need your keys by the end of the day.

'She was completely and utterly devastated.'

It was almost like a bereavement.

Although I don't think it'll last much longer,

not if Sarah has her way.

So you've spoken to her?

Er, we've been corresponding.

Seems things have rather fallen apart since I left.

Obviously, Sarah wants me back,

but I think it's important it's on my own terms, you know.

Well, yes, absolutely. Good for you. THEY CHUCKLE

Actually, darling, I really can't stay,

but I did want to speak to you about Luis.

Sorry?

It's just he thought he saw you near his house recently, and...

...well, I do hope you're not starting all that again.

No, no, of course not. Because that would be very silly.

I promise you, I haven't been anywhere near the house.

I really have no idea why Luis would say that.

Right. Well, I'm very glad to hear it.

All right, well, I must dash.

Er, well, perhaps we could grab drinks soon?

Or dinner? It's been an absolute age.

Yes. Yes, we must. Sometime soon. Well, how about Friday?

We could have drinks on the King's Road.

Have some of those divine cocktails.

It'll be really good to have a proper catch-up.

Er, yes, we could do that. So should we say Friday?

You give me one pink drink,

and I'll give you five minutes of excellent conversation.

I'm OK. I'll pass, thank you.

OK, I'll pay for both drinks, and then we can stand here in silence.

I can't say fairer than that.

I'm perfectly capable of paying for my own drinks.

I'm sure you are. But where's the fun in that?

Er, excuse me?

Mm. Jesus. Oh, my gosh, that is truly disgusting.

Er, I'll have a bottle of Veuve, please. And put these on my tab.

Of course. I'm buying you a decent drink.

OK. One drink, and then I have to go.

I'm Tommy, by the way.

So, you actually worked in the Palace?

Mm-hm, to begin with.

Thank you. Pleasure.

Is it true that it's full of mice?

No. Well, no more than any other old building.

I heard it was completely infested. Mm. Well, you heard wrong.

What was old Fergie like? Quite the character, I'd imagine?

We got on very well, actually.

I was with her for nearly ten years.

So how come you left?

The Duchess had to reduce her outgoings.

What, so she binned you? After ten years?

In a word, yes. Well, that's pretty cold.

Yeah, it wasn't great.

Well...

Then I say, fuck her.

Sorry? Well, yes.

If you ask me, she did you a favour. How exactly?

Ten years trapped in the same dead-end job.

Ah, it wasn't a dead-end. Yeah, but still, you know.

You should take a few more risks. Yeah, get out there.

Says the man with the trust fund to fall back on.

Everything I have, I've worked very hard for.

I'm a grafter. SHE CHUCKLES

Mm-hm. Mm-hm?

I am!

Should I get us another bottle?

Mm. No, I really should go home.

No, don't do that. Please.

In fact, I think I've had a really excellent idea.

Oh, yeah? Yes, yes. Come on. Drink up. Let's go.

Oh. Mm-hm.

OK. Come on. Let's go.

Mm! Cheers, chaps.

FRANCESCA: 'They just hit it off straight away.'

I was thrilled to see her happy.

Tommy was this successful man about town.

Lots of friends. He was the life of the party.

'And he was from this...' Thank you.

'..very wealthy family.'

TAXI DRIVER: Cheers, mate. Thank you.

They seemed like a really good match.

You'll love this. Oh!

Well, you said you needed more excitement in your life.

Er, no, actually, you were the one that said that.

Well, nothing gets the blood pumping

like placing a few bets on the gee-gees. There you go.

You've seriously brought me to watch the racing?

Yes, what's wrong with that?

It'll be fun.

Right.

OK, so let's say we have... mm...

hundred quid each?

There should be... three races still to go.

Whoever ends up with the biggest pot buys dinner.

Oh, but don't worry.

If you lose, I'll make sure you don't go hungry.

Who said I was going to lose?

OK, so next up is the 7:45? Yes.

Lovely Llewellyn is the beaten favourite,

but Antiguan Sun has won before over the same distance.

Well, hello!

It's like my dad says.

"Don't bet till you know t'odds."

HE CHUCKLES

I think, er, at first, my brother thought she seemed quite fun.

But, er...

...she certainly wasn't the type of girl he usually went out with.

Look, look, look at 'em go!

OK, go, Peaceful Dream! Come on. No problem there.

Where's your horse? I know! Seriously, where is he?

He's miles behind, miles behind.

Well, I'm with Peaceful Dream now. Come on, Peaceful Dream!

Go on, go on, go on!

Go, go, go, go! Go on!

Look, they're way ahead! All the way, all the way!

All the way! All the way! Yes, yes, yes, yes!

Yes! All the way! Go on!

Go on, go on! Finish, finish, finish...

Yessss! Come on, you beauty! Whoo-hoo-hoo!

THEY LAUGH

I tell you what, from now on...

Jane Andrews, I'm sticking with you.

I think you'd better.

TAPE CLICKS

POLICE OPERATOR: 'Can you confirm your name please, sir?'

'Yes, I'm Thomas Cressman.'

'OK, Mr Cressman, what is it you want the police to do?

'I'd like the police to come and split us up.

'I would like someone...

'..to stop us from hurting each other.

'If you don't have somebody here soon...

'..somebody here...' RECORDING STOPS

Call was placed at 11:35

the day before the murder from the victim's address.

According to the log, no action was taken.

Somebody really dropped the ball there, then.

Right, talk to the mobile phone company,

get somebody checking ANPR.

If she's driving on major roads, we should've had a hit by now.

All this bloody fancy technology.

I mean, the woman can't have just disappeared.

RADIO PRESENTER: 'And now we have our evening news.'

NEWSREADER: 'Police have been attempting to locate Jane Andrews

'since the discovery of Thomas Cressman's body on Monday.

'The couple have been described by neighbours as "happy and in love",

'but as time passes, speculation is growing.

'Could Jane Andrews have killed the man she loved?

'We will keep you updated on the story as the events unfold.

'And in other news, preparations are...'
