They need to speak 191 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:04,879 to you urgently. 192 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:05,880 That's all right. 193 00:12:06,380 --> 00:12:08,820 I think we were pretty much finished here, weren't we, Mrs. Clagg? 194 00:12:09,060 --> 00:12:10,200 Thank you, Dr. Murrick. 195 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,900 Ballroom dancing for you then, Milad? 196 00:12:13,180 --> 00:12:14,660 Maybe you'll take after your Uncle Bert. 197 00:12:15,980 --> 00:12:17,820 Did a mean pas de deux, bladed Bert. 198 00:12:20,820 --> 00:12:23,140 I'm very sorry about your husband, Mrs. Barton. 199 00:12:25,220 --> 00:12:27,300 I should have stopped him going out so late. 200 00:12:28,260 --> 00:12:29,260 It was silly. 201 00:12:29,940 --> 00:12:31,880 An accident waiting to happen. 202 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,480 Perhaps. 203 00:12:34,860 --> 00:12:37,760 There are some formalities that we have to... Formalities? 204 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,620 Well, I presume the undertaker will be able to deal with it all. 205 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,520 I'm afraid it's a bit more serious than that. 206 00:12:44,380 --> 00:12:46,420 CID and a pathologist are on the way. 207 00:12:46,700 --> 00:12:48,060 There'll have to be a post -mortem. 208 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,140 Is that really necessary? 209 00:12:50,620 --> 00:12:53,360 In cases of sudden death, there are set procedures. 210 00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:54,820 Sorry, there's no choice. 211 00:13:04,780 --> 00:13:05,780 Come and take a look at this. 212 00:13:12,060 --> 00:13:13,060 What is this? 213 00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:14,500 Poacher's snare. 214 00:13:14,860 --> 00:13:17,080 It looks pretty clean, so it can't have been here for long. 215 00:13:17,380 --> 00:13:20,400 Do you think Mr Barton maybe spotted a poacher and came out to investigate? 216 00:13:20,740 --> 00:13:22,840 It would explain why he's this far from the house. 217 00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:25,780 I've seen him on Lord Ashfordly's land. 218 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,860 Ben Norton might know who uses him. 219 00:13:28,180 --> 00:13:29,320 I'll ask him. 220 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,820 Ah, Mrs Forbes -Helms, wait. 221 00:13:41,380 --> 00:13:45,060 What a coincidence. I was hoping to have a word with you. If it's about the taxi 222 00:13:45,060 --> 00:13:49,140 licence, Mr Scripps... No, no, no, no. I wouldn't raise that matter before the 223 00:13:49,140 --> 00:13:50,039 committee meeting. 224 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,920 No, I heard a little rumour that you were interested in the plough dance I've 225 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:54,879 been researching. 226 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:55,819 The plough dance? 227 00:13:55,820 --> 00:13:59,540 My dear Mr Scripps, I had no idea you were interested in that sort of thing. 228 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,260 Yes, well, it's not something one normally discusses, except with close 229 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,360 Well, what have you found? Only Mr. Blaketon has drawn a complete blank. 230 00:14:08,420 --> 00:14:12,640 hardly surprising. It's taken me months, years even, to get to the bottom of it. 231 00:14:12,740 --> 00:14:14,440 But I now have a plan. 232 00:14:15,020 --> 00:14:18,800 With all the dance moves... I doubt if a plan would mean anything to me, Mr. 233 00:14:18,940 --> 00:14:20,660 Scripps. Why don't you demonstrate it? 234 00:14:21,020 --> 00:14:22,020 What, now? 235 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,240 But I need four people. I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard for you to find the 236 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,720 truth. Not for a man like you, Mr. Scripps. 237 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,840 A man who is so keen to show us that you can run an efficient taxi service. 238 00:14:34,860 --> 00:14:36,120 Shall we say tomorrow night? 239 00:14:39,380 --> 00:14:40,820 I'll get on to it right away. 240 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,520 Sir.

My husband was much more concerned about foxes. 251 00:15:26,620 --> 00:15:30,220 Losing the odd bird here or there wasn't a problem. A fox can kill hundreds in 252 00:15:30,220 --> 00:15:30,939 one night. 253 00:15:30,940 --> 00:15:33,220 So would he have gone after a poacher then if he saw one? 254 00:15:33,460 --> 00:15:36,180 If he caught one in the act, of course. 255 00:15:37,780 --> 00:15:40,780 Do you have reason to believe a poacher was there last night? 256 00:15:41,060 --> 00:15:42,200 Near where he was found, yes. 257 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,020 Could that explain why my husband was up there? 258 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,560 It could indeed. 259 00:15:50,820 --> 00:15:51,880 Mr. Blaketon! 260 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,340 You're never going to believe this. 261 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,600 What's that? 262 00:15:55,630 --> 00:15:56,369 The cone. 263 00:15:56,370 --> 00:16:02,310 After all your hard work trying to find out about that plough dance, it turns 264 00:16:02,310 --> 00:16:07,230 out that Vernon Scripps knows all about it.

David, don't worry about the garage. 565 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:00,120 I've sorted it. 566 00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:11,900 I'm not convinced by this tale of Barton owing money to dubious people. 567 00:34:15,340 --> 00:34:17,040 What do your instincts tell you? 568 00:34:18,980 --> 00:34:21,820 I've already applied for a warrant to access his bank details. 569 00:34:24,219 --> 00:34:25,300 And it's getting late. 570 00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:31,100 Night. 571 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,080 Mr Scripps? 572 00:34:47,679 --> 00:34:50,500 Wasn't expecting you until next week. You must be David. 573 00:34:52,679 --> 00:34:53,699 Oh, yeah. 574 00:34:53,980 --> 00:34:54,879 I'm Rosie. 575 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:55,880 Rosie Cartwright. 576 00:34:56,540 --> 00:35:00,080 Mr Scripps gave me a job here as a mechanic. 577 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:01,680 Did you say he'd gone away? 578 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,360 Yeah. He's away for a fortnight. 579 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,980 He only offered me the job yesterday when he came to look at the ploughs. 580 00:35:08,660 --> 00:35:12,540 Oh! All right, you must be Mr Vernon, not the Mr Scripps that owns the garage. 581 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,600 Oh! I hadn't realised there were two of them. 582 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,200 Maybe I ought to check I really do have a job. 583 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,860 Ah, Miss Cartwright. I see you've met David. 584 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,820 Yeah, and he tells me that you don't actually own the garage. 585 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:36,100 Well, I... Well, I don't actually own all of it. My brother and I run several 586 00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:40,940 businesses from here, and I suppose you could say nominally that he does run the 587 00:35:40,940 --> 00:35:42,520 garage, if you get my meaning. 588 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,780 So are you or are you not in a position to give me a job? 589 00:35:46,140 --> 00:35:52,020 Miss Contrite, I wouldn't make that sort of decision without a full consultation 590 00:35:52,020 --> 00:35:57,480 with my brother. David, we haven't got time for this discussion, have we? We're 591 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,520 running late. The plowshares are on the truck. I want you to get them set up, 592 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:02,520 ready for the dancing. 593 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,940 Is the other Mr Scripps more straightforward? 594 00:36:07,580 --> 00:36:09,320 Yes. Thank goodness for that. 595 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,380 You'll see when he gets back. 596 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:18,840 Any developments? 597 00:36:18,900 --> 00:36:21,000 I've sent Bellamy to speak to Miss Mackay again. 598 00:36:21,380 --> 00:36:22,380 I'll tell you one thing. 599 00:36:22,580 --> 00:36:25,460 I'm not going to let Mrs Barton browbeat me into letting her out on bail. 600 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,380 Well, if we don't get some evidence, we may not have a choice. 601 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,060 Reports back on the fingerprints, Sarge. Let me see that. 602 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:35,840 Oh. 603 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,040 Let's see how she explains this away. 604 00:36:39,660 --> 00:36:40,660 What is it? 605 00:36:41,100 --> 00:36:42,100 There. 606 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,320 Her fingerprints are on the gun, too, along with her husband's. I think we've 607 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:46,320 got her, Dennis. 608 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,240 We know there was a row the night he died. 609 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:09,920 Yes, he said. 610 00:37:10,380 --> 00:37:11,380 He said? 611 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:12,980 I thought you hadn't seen him. 612 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:14,480 I didn't. 613 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:15,840 He turned around. 614 00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:18,900 Do you know, you really should have told me that. 615 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,000 How do you explain your fingerprints on the gun? 616 00:37:26,740 --> 00:37:29,160 I often handle the guns. I'm not a bad shot. 617 00:37:30,180 --> 00:37:32,140 You were the only other clue set of prints. 618 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,800 The killer must have worn gloves. 619 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,600 You told us Harry went out last night with the gun and you never saw him 620 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,940 How can yours be the clearest print that that is true? 621 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,860 I don't know. I can't explain it. 622 00:37:45,460 --> 00:37:48,140 I can only think they must have been left from before. 623 00:37:53,980 --> 00:37:55,100 Are you all right, Maggie? 624 00:37:56,240 --> 00:38:00,200 I'm sorry. It was just so awful to think that he was dead because of me. 625 00:38:01,700 --> 00:38:02,760 Well, if it's any use. 626 00:38:03,850 --> 00:38:06,570 You couldn't have known that she'd take losing him so badly. 627 00:38:07,090 --> 00:38:08,410 But you see, she didn't. 628 00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:10,570 So she needn't have killed him. 629 00:38:10,810 --> 00:38:12,430 She didn't... Lose him. 630 00:38:13,590 --> 00:38:15,070 I turned him down. 631 00:38:16,050 --> 00:38:19,510 He was devastated. He threatened to kill himself and everything. 632 00:38:21,110 --> 00:38:22,650 But what else could I do? 633 00:38:23,390 --> 00:38:25,830 I'd send his bank statements, for goodness sake. 634 00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:27,570 His bank statements? 635 00:38:27,890 --> 00:38:30,810 His only asset was the farm, and that was in Mrs Barden's name. 636 00:38:31,270 --> 00:38:32,890 So if you left her... 637 00:38:33,390 --> 00:38:34,390 He'd have nothing. 638 00:38:36,350 --> 00:38:39,190 I mean, what sort of girl did he think I was? 639 00:38:40,730 --> 00:38:41,730 It had to be her. 640 00:38:42,790 --> 00:38:46,950 If you look at where her fingerprints were found on the gun, it's not in a 641 00:38:46,950 --> 00:38:47,950 firing position. 642 00:38:48,010 --> 00:38:49,990 No. But it was a struggle? 643 00:38:50,270 --> 00:38:52,950 She's a tough woman, I grant you, but you really think she would get the 644 00:38:52,950 --> 00:38:53,950 of him in a struggle? 645 00:38:54,430 --> 00:38:56,130 And if we charge her, she'll get off, I know. 646 00:38:58,930 --> 00:39:02,030 I've spoken to the secretary again. 647 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,580 She turned him down, apparently. He was devastated, she said. 648 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:06,920 Turned him down? 649 00:39:08,100 --> 00:39:11,400 The placement of the fingerprints are consistent with Mr Bartlett killing 650 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:12,359 himself, sir. 651 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,340 Wouldn't you consider his dire financial position? 652 00:39:15,060 --> 00:39:16,060 Suicide? 653 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,680 But why would anyone move the body, cover up? 654 00:39:26,240 --> 00:39:27,340 Let's interview her again. 655 00:39:34,700 --> 00:39:35,700 What is it this time? 656 00:39:38,500 --> 00:39:40,380 Is it some other ridiculous theory? 657 00:39:42,100 --> 00:39:46,220 We think your husband killed himself, Mrs Barton. His fingerprints are in the 658 00:39:46,220 --> 00:39:47,300 firing position on the gun. 659 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,800 He was facing financial ruin. And his girlfriend had turned him down. 660 00:39:59,740 --> 00:40:02,980 I warned him she wouldn't touch him with a barge pole once she found out he 661 00:40:02,980 --> 00:40:03,980 wasn't rich. 662 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,480 wouldn't listen. 663 00:40:10,540 --> 00:40:16,860 What happened, Mrs Barton? 664 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,880 I heard the shot about midnight, went down to the barn and found him. How did 665 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:24,880 you move him? 666 00:40:25,020 --> 00:40:29,740 I managed to get him into the back of the Land Rover, drove up to the far 667 00:40:29,740 --> 00:40:31,440 and dragged him to the fence. 668 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,800 He must have been heavy, lifting him on your own like that. 669 00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:41,700 Needs much, Sergeant. I had to make it look accidental. 670 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:43,240 His life insurance. 671 00:40:45,420 --> 00:40:47,200 I had a suicide clause. 672 00:40:49,820 --> 00:40:51,140 So selfish. 673 00:40:53,060 --> 00:40:55,540 Never thought of anybody but himself. 674 00:40:57,540 --> 00:41:01,460 Killed himself like some miserable, weak coward. 675 00:41:03,740 --> 00:41:05,500 Left me to clear up the mess. 676 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,240 I think it's a farce. What do you mean? 677 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,660 Oh, we've got a bee in his bonnet about Vernon making the dance up. 678 00:41:16,980 --> 00:41:19,740 I thought it was you that discovered that there was an A, the full -plough 679 00:41:19,740 --> 00:41:20,740 dance, Oscar. 680 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,200 Oh, aye, but it was only yesterday I discovered a reference to it and found 681 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,560 exactly what the dance involves. 682 00:41:26,240 --> 00:41:30,060 And needless to say, it's nothing to do with Vernon's fantasy. 683 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,560 You're not going to tell Mrs Forbes Apples, wait, are you? I don't think you 684 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,740 should be allowed to get away with it. She'll be furious, especially if she's 685 00:41:36,740 --> 00:41:39,120 got that professor coming to see it. Aye, I know. 686 00:41:39,380 --> 00:41:40,379 She'll go mad. 687 00:41:40,380 --> 00:41:41,980 She'll never let him renew his taxi licence. 688 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,420 It's the only business he's got left. Oscar, he can't. He'll be ruined. 689 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,820 Don't you think I hadn't thought about that? 690 00:41:51,700 --> 00:41:55,960 Of chance, Mrs Barton was attempting to obtain money by deception, Milder. 691 00:41:55,980 --> 00:41:58,080 Shame. But it definitely wasn't murder. 692 00:41:58,860 --> 00:41:59,860 No, sir. 693 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,160 Had me going for a while, though. 694 00:42:04,220 --> 00:42:05,220 Yes, sir. 695 00:42:09,359 --> 00:42:10,600 I'll leave you to get on with it, Sergeant. 696 00:42:11,980 --> 00:42:12,980 Sir? 697 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,300 I don't know what you're all hanging about for. 698 00:42:18,540 --> 00:42:20,140 There was a village pate to attend, didn't there? 699 00:42:39,240 --> 00:42:42,480 You should buy that Victoria sponge.

I've done my best 717 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:43,740 to teach these unskilled but keen villagers the dance. 718 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,640 But really it's down to Oscar's hard work. 719 00:43:46,860 --> 00:43:52,080 In libraries throughout the county, that has been the inspiration. That is 720 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,820 something that we will all be eternally grateful for. 721 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:56,600 All the libraries in the county? 722 00:44:02,589 --> 00:44:04,590 Well, the Whitby Library, to be exact. 723 00:44:07,190 --> 00:44:09,810 Well, I can't really take all the credit. 724 00:44:10,390 --> 00:44:12,010 Oh, they're about to be gone. 725 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,080 Follow me. 726 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,820 Why?

I didn't mean any harm. 740 00:46:02,340 --> 00:46:05,040 Now, if it had been Phil Bellamy, it might have been a different matter. 741 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:10,760 There's no Mrs. Bellamy waiting for you at home, then. Just go before you do any 742 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,380 more damage to this family. 743 00:46:15,150 --> 00:46:15,948 I understand. 744 00:46:15,950 --> 00:46:18,310 You want him, not me.
