That is right! What do you expect, net number five? Evie, keep it down. Aye,

keep it down, Kieran.

Place could be crawling with feds.

What's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster?

Is it a monster?

What's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster?

Is it a monster?

You in?

Handed their art to them. Way to go!

You managed to escape, for once.

I'm always up for a night out. Yeah, always. I think never.

I'll tell you why I'm doing better than you.

You've got to be the boat. No, sonar.

The first thing the tourists ask is your boat of sonar.

So why are you selling it then?

Underwater drawing.

Ordered it this morning.

Of course, Annie thinks we need a new car, which we do.

So you want me to buy your sonar? You're working Loch Ness. It'll pay for

itself. If there was something down there, I might think about it, but...

Leighton, maybe you just don't want to see it.

So what do you reckon?

Leighton, he doesn't fancy me.

I just heard him saying I'm getting a semi on the Ferrari.

I don't know, it's a white wine.

Oh, you're so funny.

Might be nice for Desi, the man about the house.

I used to have someone around I had to talk to. I could hardly get a word out

my son.

Do you think he might be... Say it.

Straight.

You're a cheeky bitch.

What about you, then?

What? What about her?

Well, I've gone all the way to Australia to get away from you.

That's not definite.

Don't jump.

How's it looking?

A tail needs to be longer.

Evie, look.

I've got a seal's willy bone. John Joe's. Is it a boy monster or a girl?

I heard something.

Oh, is it the feds?

Why

did

you let me drink so much? You're off tomorrow. Relax.

You think Leighton fancies you?

Leighton?

Don't see the way he looks at you.

How could he not fancy you?

What do you think the monster is doing now?

Well, it's nocturnal.

I'll be getting ready to hunt.

Can I grab that?

Morning, Mum.

Beautiful day.

Morning, Mum. Can I grab that? Right, you're up. As you are.

Rolling in half past drunk.

What is it? Nothing.

Come on. Mum.

Is it a boy?

Yeah, Mum, it's a boy.

Evie.

Have a good day.

You're doing great, sweetheart.

Keep going.

I think you might be making her nervous.

Am I making you nervous, Isla?

No.

peer out at the world through holes in a mask.

Dewey Dethy, are these your deeper most thoughts?

Give it back to him.

Big man, boss finally dropped.

The shadow demands the thrill of fangs and

claws.

Dog Within going wild after a lifetime on the leash.

Anyone?

Carl Jung.

The only student who knows is the one who's leaving halfway through her

So, what do we know about Carl Jung?

Mr Baxter.

Me?

Absolutely SFA.

Okay, so let's embark on a voyage of discovery, shall we?

I'm sorry?

There's not going to be any more music left.

What?

I don't need to explain myself.

Your wife promised that I'd be kept on.

This is a Christian household.

I don't understand that. Have you listened to that?

Some of it.

For island nine.

We were talking about harmony. It's filth.

And you're a hypocrite.

I taught Bethan McGrellish.

Don't worry.

I won't betray her confident.

My deal.

Frank, good morning.

Is it?

Who on STV News told me what kind of a morning it is? ...residents of Loch

Nessie... ...vote to the sad news that the Loch Ness monster is dead.

That's your thing? The bones of Nessie were found washed up this morning on the

money -money banks of the loch.

Frank, I'm watching the report. I'm not sure what you want me to do.

That's a bloody health hazard. Get it incinerated.

But Frank, what about the scientific value?

Aye, aye.

He hung up.

Officer Jason Denny.

So, Officer Denny, exactly what do you think this is behind you there?

Well, I'm no expert, but I suppose it could be some kind of marine life.

A type of glacier shore, perhaps?

Yes, possibly.

I mean, you can see what kind of looks like flippers.

I can see a bit of peg and tow and a steel hobie.

Oh, please, stop making an arse of yourself. Start from the knees.

Uh, hi, excuse me. Would you mind if I had a quick... Thanks, Kirsty Ward. I'll

take it from here.

Any of yous want to help?

Didn't think so. Off you go.

No more selfies.

You think this is a crime scene?

Still here?

Taking your pictures. Now, please leave.

Thank you. See you later. Everybody, off you go.

Yes, go.

Walk faster, please. Thank you.

That's it. One foot in front of the other.

The first recorded sighting of the monster was for St Columba in AD 565.

My first sighting was in 810.

I was swimming about half a mile off Boyer Point when I started getting

beneath the waves by a strong undertow.

I looked down and saw a huge black shape about 20 foot long moving beneath me.

Coming up on the starboard side of the rival tour.

The owner is a non -believer, so you're invited to cheer the infidel.

One

of

me customers showed it me.

Thought you'd want to know.

We should be wearing masks.

What are they doing?

For the smell.

Aye. Right.

What's the news?

Annie! Oh, morning, Ken. Do you think these might be yours?

Yeah, I saw the news.

That would violate about 700 regulations.

If you don't do it in college?

I think my son would do this.

This is... Not a criminal investigation.

Well, John does have his moments, but he's got his head down now.

I really don't fancy putting his back in the van. Yeah, nearly he'd like three

times.

Would you mind?

Follow me.

There's a mine falling here!

Why did they do it?

Was it the guy last week who'd been nervous and split -flopped?

Mountain rescue, not the mortuary service.

Which are easy.

Is that his?

Yeah, it was next to his body.

Look, just leave it.

DS Redford to control him at the foot of Cornmore.

I recognise the deceased is... Niall Swift.

Require full scenes of crime.

Severe head injuries.

Dr. Marr attending.

Annie, full scenes of crime?

You think it's accidental?

The guy took a header.

Look.

That's not accidental.

We flew over in the Seahawk about half an hour ago. What did you see?

There's nothing out of the ordinary.

It's bad business.

You run here from the college?

Yeah, happy lunchtime.

Did you see anybody?

No, not on my run.

After I found them, I borrowed a phone from a woman.

Did you get her name?

Yeah, she gave me her details.

Life extinct.

The former procurator fiscal.

Do you think someone killed him?

Good bit of death.

Get a tape, set up a coin.

So how many murders have you worked?

This is a lot, my boy.

Not that many.

More than ten?

None.

If you might know.

Right.

Should I go get my sleeping bag?

What? You know, like pulling all nighter.

Jason, the body's at the mortuary. Until we get the pathologist's results,

there's nothing we can do.

What?

Niall's phone wasn't on him. I thought it'd be in here.

Did you get my message or anything else for it?

Yeah, unbelievable.

Just... How's Madam?

She's a bit upset.

Yeah, I'm a bit upset.

Evie.

I saw your film on YouTube.

Yeah, I've talked to her about it.

A man we all really liked is dead and you two are on about a stupid joke.

And I will be on about it until you show me you've wised up.

Not what Dad said.

Oh, no, what did Dad say? I never said anything.

You did.

I said...

It was a good date for taking.

Because of what we did.

Best day this year, down to me.

Well done.

You know the worst thing about today?

Dr. Moore acting like it was no big deal.

Niall taught Marsby girl.

Did he?

Said Maude always made him feel uncomfortable.

Not the only one.

Is Kieran at home?

I'm a friend.

From college.

He's with his brother.

Can I say hi?

Hi.

Somebody think him.

This is why you don't invite anyone round.

My mum told me.

Does your mum know everyone's business?

Pretty much.

Cop thing, she never stops.

Do you hear about my piano teacher?

He died. They think it was a climbing accident.

Sorry.

Can I do something to help?

You want to take him rollerblading?

I could trim his fingernails.

Some scissors in the drawer there.

Jordan.

You mind if I tell Evie what happened?

He could have gone.

Like a blink or something.

Not yet.

Can you stop a second?

He was a Scots guard.

After his last tour, he had an aneurysm.

Before you moved here?

Yeah.

The doctors took ages to diagnose locked -in syndrome.

We had to fight to stop him turning off his life support.

He squeezed my hand.

Oh, my God.

It's just a spasm.

DPI Quigley?

Today?

Well, I've got my interview today.

OK, well, I appreciate that.

Who's in charge up there?

Frank Smiley?

No, no problem with that.

OK.

Frank Smiley.

You're right.

Niall Swift's fall wasn't an accident.

Inverness, come on.

The detective superintendent picked his senior investigating officer.

Oh, but neither bastard hated me. Just didn't know how much.

He's picked Lauren Quigley.

DTI.

Glasgow Cathedral Street.

English.

How was her sergeant when she started out?

Fresh out of the box.

Thought she was tropical.

I'm aware of your presence, Frank. No need to bark.

Yes, Redford? You were the first officer?

Yes, ma 'am.

You didn't find any long metal implements at the scene, did you?

Part of the prefrontal cortex is missing.

And judging by the blood pooled in the skull, it was removed via the nasal

cavity while the victim was still alive.

Maybe his brain was hoiked out through his nose.

In broad daylight.

You have a cold -blooded predator in your town.

I'll be bringing in my own team tonight, which, given the slightly

unconventional MO, will include Blake Albrighton. He's a forensic

Oh, I know who he is.

It's your first homicide, Frank.

No. That's right. There was that woman up in Park Circus.

It wasn't my first.

It was mine.

Bob!

How well did you know Nas Swift?

He came to our house once a week for about three years. To teach piano?

Yeah, he was a decent guy.

Liked a bit of golf.

Enough to get him killed?

It was pretty innocuous.

He tell you who he was sleeping with?

No, he was there to teach my daughter.

Tight little town, gay man, how did that work?

Worked fine.

Here, you contribute, you're in.

Everybody loved him.

Well, somebody didn't. Right, there.

Beauty of nature.

Bores the living shit out of me.

Craig.

Craig, what happened to you yesterday? You need to talk about it.

No, I don't.

He found a dead body. You were white as the sheet when you came home.

Craig, please.

Look, I just need some time on my own.

Don't shut me out.

Any special significance to this area?

Nope.

Suicide spot.

Making place for lovers.

Dogger's paradise.

Wasn't a coincidence, was it? I'm guessing Swift and our man arranged to

here. You got his phone?

He didn't have it with him.

Who found him?

Craig Petrie, head of Lochnafoy College.

OK, we'll make Petrie a priority.

Any other locals I should know about?

One, out on Lytham.

Leighton Thomas.

He ties him down, a fit and able -bodied man, does the trick with the brain,

heaves him off the cliff, all in broad daylight.

Talk about high risk.

The grass there.

Do you do that?

Do you don't come through here?

No.

Local paper came out yesterday.

Extend the cordon to take in the whole area. You can tell the stock he'll get

himself down here.

Yes, ma 'am.

Why would anybody go in there?

Hide.

Mutton rescue flew over just before the body was found.

I found something on Cornmore. I can't say what, but the SIO wants me to be

of the team.

Annie, you're talking about somebody we both knew.

Yeah.

All I'm saying is the SIO's bringing in Blake Albrighton. Who?

Blake Albrighton, Alan.

He read his book.

Did he?

Forensic psychologist. He caught the Queen's fairy killer. The crossbow guy.

yeah, yeah, yeah. Clever guy. Tell him over lunch. I can't.

Come on, an hour or two. Alan, I need to go.

New people. That was fast. Well, see if there's been more done. Well, very good.

Experimenting with sarcasm.

Can we have a word?

What's happened?

That was among the crap found on the beach.

What you have here is a human heart.

Something's had a wee chew at it.

It's gamey.

I'd estimate it was removed a week to ten days ago.

Brains, hearts.

What next, Annie?

PC Denny had the area around the bones cordoned off. It was my decision to

incinerate all foreign material on the floor.

He said he didn't mention the heart in case he got a bollocking.

I'm sorry he felt like that.

And the pranksters?

John Joseph Patterson, clear and white, at Evelyn Redford.

My daughter.

Do you have any idea how bad this looks?

You disinfected that?

Yeah.

Thanks. Do it again.

Frank.

I'm guessing this ain't good.

Is that the van he used to get the stuff to the beach?

Yeah.

John Joe's son. Could you leave that just now?

I gave my right ball for a cup of tea.

Okay.

The heart you brought in.

Human.

Male. Over 50, apparently.

Not yours.

No, I checked.

If you could keep that to yourself for now.

We're going to have to talk to John Joe, and you can expect a visit from the

Inverness Sockers. What?

You have a couple of hours. Get everything above board.

It's not that.

I've tons of beef online. More arriving. My margins are practically zero as it

is.

I'll talk to them.

Push her back.

She's a bundle of thing.

Why did nobody tell me about all this?

I saw an actual stag. Falls bigger than mine. Nearly crashed the car.

Glad you're here.

We need to call the press conference.

I'm standing there thinking, have these idiots not seen a uniform? One of them

shouting, I'll have to let Sam drive, he's too pissed to sing.

That's what she told us.

He's here, sir. Will he call Britain?

OK.

Uh, the forensic psychologist? Jason, I know who he is. I'll be out when I'm

ready.

You read his book?

No. Skimmed it.

That stuff about his sister.

Imagine carrying that around with you.

I bet he's got the next one all planned.

How I Caught the Loch Ness Monster.

Alan, can you bring Evie down to the station, please?

I can't okay a press conference. We don't know what we're dealing with.

We're dealing with someone who's killed twice and will kill again.

The heart could have come from a medical school or a grave. The same day a body

is found with part of its brain removed, a heart turns up, and you think that's

what? Bad luck?

I don't believe in luck. Don't believe in hunches or horse whisperers. Believe

in evidence.

You're both chief inspectors. Who's SIO?

DTI quickly runs the investigation.

I run everything else, which would include a press conference.

Why do you think he'll kill again, assuming it's a he?

Oh, it's a he.

Mid -20s to mid -40s.

His narrative is about how clever he is. He needs power.

We all need power.

But this guy's different.

The thing with the brain, he's overdoing it. More than power, he needs to be

admired. And you hold a press conference to tell him how much you admire him.

Look.

I'm talking about saving lives, OK? By giving him what he craves, we satiate

for a while, maybe long enough to give us an advantage.

And you get what you crave.

Which is what?

Publicity.

He turned down a job in Boston to be here. This is a favour.

I've seen his feed.

That's no favour.

Wait! Chill, I'm just going to find a hotel.

Want to come?

No, Blake, I don't.

Niles Swift, 32 years old, moved to Loch Nafoi four years ago.

Taught local kids piano, started a choir.

organised performances for charity. No close attachment or relative that we

of. Threading together the available pathology and forensics, Niall Swift met

his killer on Khan Moor. His wrists were bound with a rope similar

to this.

Who stocks it locally? Do they remember anyone buying it?

Billion dollar question.

Where's his phone?

For the officer who brings me a lead, I've put something aside at the Oxfam

shop.

Oh, calm yourself.

And if that wasn't enough, we've had this thrown into the mix.

A little gift left on the beach.

Until we find out otherwise, we'll treat that as a separate murder

investigation.

I don't know.

We all seem to come up with the idea together.

I think I'd have to credit Evie with that.

It was Evie's idea.

She asked if I could get the bones.

Mr Petrie says you should always follow your instincts.

It was horrible.

Kieran and John Joe were just dumping it. Could have been a heart there.

Didn't notice.

If we'd seen a heart, we'd have been arguing about where it should go. I

would have remembered a heart.

While we were laying out the bone, I had a feeling we were being watched.

You had a feeling? Did you see anyone?

No.

Look, I'm trying to establish how the heart got there.

You saw someone, maybe they put it there after you'd gone.

I didn't see anyone.

You believe her?

Yeah.

Am I off the case?

I'm going to let her go, but I strongly recommend she does not leave the area.

Right. DC, quickly, am I... What are you at this moment, a mother or a police

officer?

You're compromised.

I'm sorry.

You're the case. What do you think?

Where'd the heart come from?

What's the deal with the heart?

It's human.

Shit. Nobody knows about that, so don't go blabbing.

You need to tell me where you got it.

We never saw any heart. How many times? Do you know some medical student?

Annie, you're not on the job now.

I might not have a job. She's pissed because she messed up.

You're such a rude little bitch. Where did you get it? I think that's enough.

Oh, do you? That's for you to decide. Is it Evie?

Just let me give you something.

I don't want any help.

Okay? Why won't you let me contribute at least?

Evie!

You better go.

Hi.

Sad day.

Can you believe it? You could do a thing like that.

You called Bethan? Soon as I heard.

Oh, Bethan wasn't Beth.

I've been messaging her.

She hasn't had a minute to herself.

Law degrees don't come free with a bunty.

The new DCI needs you to check in down at the station.

I can't stay here.

Of course you can.

The community needs you.

Well, you think this is a community?

It's a bunch of people drawn together by lies.

I admire what they did.

He's lying about something.

Got a bit defensive, didn't he?

Are you on the investigation team?

No, I'm not. I committed murder.

Is that what you want to hear?

You got a taste for it? Yeah, it felt good.

We might be looking at another victim.

If we can get that in hand, we could have the killer's handwriting.

What's going on?

Somebody's trying to get us shut down.

You know, most people, their monsters are in here, scratching to get out.

Well, the mystery deepens as the drama continues in the Loch New next Sunday

night at nine here on ITV.
