Sir, enjoy.

10
00:02:41,220 --> 00:02:44,339
OK, who's next? Wilby, what do you
want? Same again? Pint?

11
00:02:44,340 --> 00:02:46,339
I'm getting thirsty here.

12
00:02:46,340 --> 00:02:48,419
That's it, Sam.

13
00:02:48,420 --> 00:02:50,340
It's good, it's good.

14
00:02:53,620 --> 00:02:55,699
Excuse me, gents. Excuse me.

15
00:02:55,700 --> 00:02:58,620
I'm Detective Sergeant Jones,
Causton CID.

16
00:02:59,260 --> 00:03:01,859
We're making enquiries
about Peter Slim.

17
00:03:01,860 --> 00:03:03,579
He's gone missing.

18
00:03:03,580 --> 00:03:06,018
Well, now.
Local Revenue man goes missing.

19
00:03:06,019 --> 00:03:08,420
Who'd have imagined that, eh?
(Laughter)

20
00:03:08,421 --> 00:03:10,619
Anything you can tell us?

21
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:12,779
Well, put it this way.

22
00:03:12,780 --> 00:03:16,299
If I'd have trousered as much cash
as some of these beggars have,

23
00:03:16,300 --> 00:03:17,900
I'd have disappeared too.

24
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:21,859
Try the Costa Brava, that's where
you'll find him.

25
00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:23,820
That's where all the crooks go.

26
00:03:28,020 --> 00:03:29,820
(Fiddle plays)

27
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:38,059
Up, up, up. Come on.

28
00:03:38,060 --> 00:03:39,980
(Shouts of encouragement)

29
00:03:43,540 --> 00:03:45,579
More research, sir.

30
00:03:45,580 --> 00:03:47,699
You've got sweet, I've got rough.

31
00:03:47,700 --> 00:03:49,540
Cheers.
Cheers.

32
00:03:51,100 --> 00:03:53,099
Mm, that's good.

33
00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:54,739
I needed that.

34
00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:56,899
Just apple juice left to ferment.

35
00:03:56,900 --> 00:03:59,380
Nothing added.
Nature's most natural drink.

36
00:03:59,381 --> 00:04:01,659
No yeast? How does it ferment?

37
00:04:01,660 --> 00:04:03,259
There's yeast in the air.

38
00:04:03,260 --> 00:04:04,858
It settles in the juice,
starts to multiply.

39
00:04:04,859 --> 00:04:07,100
Six months later, you've got
a vat of cider.

40
00:04:07,980 --> 00:04:10,619
So what's all that
about tossing in a dead rat?

41
00:04:10,620 --> 00:04:13,200
Apparently, a bit of
protein kick-starts the

42
00:04:13,201 --> 00:04:15,779
fermentation if the process
doesn't get going.

43
00:04:15,780 --> 00:04:17,739
Lovely!
Yeah.

44
00:04:17,740 --> 00:04:19,660
Stand by your beds.

45
00:04:21,820 --> 00:04:23,619
We've already got one, mate. Look.

46
00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:25,299
Bit slow, aren't you?

47
00:04:25,300 --> 00:04:28,299
This lot look as though
they're a law unto themselves.

48
00:04:28,300 --> 00:04:29,899
Ah!

49
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:31,300
Honey.

50
00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:43,619
Like to try some?

51
00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:44,740
Thank you.

52
00:04:53,460 --> 00:04:54,540
Mm!

53
00:04:56,020 --> 00:04:58,819
That's delicious. Do I detect pears?

54
00:04:58,820 --> 00:04:59,939
Pears, yes.

55
00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:02,098
And there's a hint
of something else.

56
00:05:02,099 --> 00:05:03,860
I can't quite put my finger on it.

Elderflower.

58

Would you mind asking

I will not.
You call yourself a man of God,

but you sanction this
celebration of evil.

Six we know of, that is!

96
00:07:30,980 --> 00:07:33,059
I can assure you, Samuel Quested,

97
00:07:33,060 --> 00:07:35,940
that I made those children
to glorify the Lord.

98
00:07:36,460 --> 00:07:39,459
The act itself gave me no pleasure.

99
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:41,380
I'm sure your wife
would say the same.

That's Anthony Devereux,
this is his mill.

107
00:08:07,541 --> 00:08:09,739
Locals call him "The French".

108
00:08:09,740 --> 00:08:12,180
He's considered an outsider.
His family have

109
00:08:12,181 --> 00:08:14,619
only lived here since
the Norman Conquest.

110
00:08:14,620 --> 00:08:16,419
REVEREND: Ladies and gentlemen.

111
00:08:16,420 --> 00:08:20,979
Welcome, one and all,
to the Midsomer Abbas May Fayre,

112
00:08:20,980 --> 00:08:23,219
when we celebrate
the coming of summer

113
00:08:23,220 --> 00:08:26,020
and the very special
relationship between

114
00:08:26,021 --> 00:08:28,820
Midsomer Abbas and
Midsomer Herne.

115
00:08:29,860 --> 00:08:32,939
The aldermen of these two villages
are now going to join me

116
00:08:32,940 --> 00:08:34,860
to exchange a symbolic gift.

117
00:08:36,540 --> 00:08:38,500
(Applause)

118
00:08:44,020 --> 00:08:46,099
In the spring of 1370,

119
00:08:46,100 --> 00:08:49,020
a terrible frost struck the valley
of Midsomer Abbas.

120
00:08:50,100 --> 00:08:52,379
Our trees produced no fruit,

121
00:08:52,380 --> 00:08:54,739
and by Christmas, people were
starving.

122
00:08:54,740 --> 00:08:57,539
But over the hill,
in the valley of Midsomer Herne,

123
00:08:57,540 --> 00:08:59,500
the frost had not struck so savage.

124
00:09:00,780 --> 00:09:02,900
When our neighbours heard of the
famine,

125
00:09:04,380 --> 00:09:06,819
they gathered what food
they could spare

126
00:09:06,820 --> 00:09:08,580
and carried it over the hill to us.

127
00:09:11,340 --> 00:09:13,460
We are truly grateful to our
neighbours.

128
00:09:14,340 --> 00:09:17,300
And I am once again honoured
to present them with a gift...

129
00:09:18,940 --> 00:09:21,379
a box of our finest apples.

130
00:09:21,380 --> 00:09:23,140
(Cheering)

131
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:31,340
Thank you very much, Samuel.
You're most welcome.

132
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:36,780
Marvellous. A simple act of Christian
charity.

133
00:09:37,900 --> 00:09:41,379
And 700 years later, it's still
remembered.

134
00:09:41,380 --> 00:09:43,659
Isn't that a lesson for us all?

135
00:09:43,660 --> 00:09:45,140
(Cheering)

136
00:09:49,780 --> 00:09:51,460
Go on!

137
00:09:54,540 --> 00:09:57,779
You've been doing a good job behind
the bar there, Alice.

138
00:09:57,780 --> 00:10:01,019
If you ever want a shift in the Apple
Tree, you let me know.

139
00:10:01,020 --> 00:10:03,780
I've got two jobs already.
Why would I need another?

140
00:10:09,660 --> 00:10:11,059
All right, my duck?

141
00:10:11,060 --> 00:10:12,980
Will Green's a dirty old man.

142
00:10:14,540 --> 00:10:16,019
You take no notice.

143
00:10:16,020 --> 00:10:17,940
Pint of rough, please, Alice.

144
00:10:20,580 --> 00:10:22,579
You all right, sir?

145
00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:24,500
I'm not sure this agrees with me.

146
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:30,779
Ladies and gentlemen, it's time
for the highlight of the fayre...

147
00:10:30,780 --> 00:10:32,540
the Horn Dance!

148
00:10:34,780 --> 00:10:36,700
(Music starts up)

149
00:10:44,900 --> 00:10:49,899
Whoever at the Calends of January
goes about in the form of a stag,

150
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:52,700
that is changing himself
into the form of an animal,

151
00:10:53,660 --> 00:10:57,380
dressing in the skin of a horned beast
and putting on the head of a beast,

152
00:10:58,180 --> 00:11:02,260

Your barrel's bad! What?

00:11:25,780 --> 00:11:27,779
The sweet, it's ratted.

158
00:11:27,780 --> 00:11:29,779
Shut up, man!

159
00:11:29,780 --> 00:11:32,540
Don't drink the sweet, it's bad.
Nothing wrong with it.

160
00:11:44,860 --> 00:11:45,860
(Retching)

161
00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:56,300
Are you all right, sir?

162
00:11:57,380 --> 00:11:59,060
Do I look all right?

163
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:03,498
I don't know what he's talking
about.

164
00:12:03,499 --> 00:12:05,420
Let's have a look. Get me a torch.

165
00:12:21,740 --> 00:12:24,100
There's absolutely nothing wrong
with this.

166
00:12:27,540 --> 00:12:28,860
Oh, my God.

167
00:12:31,820 --> 00:12:33,220
Oh, my God.

168
00:13:15,860 --> 00:13:17,740
Oh, my God.

169
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:21,099
Don't say a word to anyone.

170
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:22,340
Please.

171
00:13:24,940 --> 00:13:27,019
Drowned in a butt of Malmsey wine.

172
00:13:27,020 --> 00:13:29,699
I've seen plenty of bodies filled
with alcohol,

173
00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:32,339
but this will be the first to be
pickled in it.

174
00:13:32,340 --> 00:13:35,780
I'll have the vat drained, see if
there's anything at the bottom.

175
00:13:35,781 --> 00:13:38,299
He could've been helping himself and
fallen in.

176
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:41,819
He took a nasty blow to the forehead.
He has a broken neck, too.

177
00:13:41,820 --> 00:13:43,100
(Belches)

178
00:13:43,700 --> 00:13:45,340
Are you all right?

179
00:13:46,180 --> 00:13:49,140
An upset stomach. I drank some of the
cider and threw up.

180
00:13:50,740 --> 00:13:52,819
Try to vomit again if you can.

181
00:13:52,820 --> 00:13:55,060
Better an empty house than a bad
tenant.

182
00:13:55,061 --> 00:13:57,099
Is that what passes for medical
advice?

183
00:13:57,100 --> 00:14:00,819
Speak to the owner. Find out who has
access to the warehouse at night.

184
00:14:00,820 --> 00:14:02,260
Yes, sir.

185
00:14:11,020 --> 00:14:12,940
(Dialogue muted out)

186
00:14:29,300 --> 00:14:31,220
My God, what have I done?

187
00:14:32,540 --> 00:14:35,899
I'm Detective Chief Inspector John
Barnaby, Causton CID.

188
00:14:35,900 --> 00:14:38,340
Hello, Inspector.
The young lady seemed upset.

189
00:14:38,341 --> 00:14:41,180
Well, we all are. This is an
absolutely terrible business.

190
00:14:41,900 --> 00:14:44,099
Did you know the dead man,
Peter Slim?

191
00:14:44,100 --> 00:14:46,500
Yes. When was the last
time you spoke to him?

192
00:14:46,501 --> 00:14:49,739
A few days ago.
Did he seem worried about anything?

193
00:14:49,740 --> 00:14:53,300
I wouldn't know. But I can tell you that
Mr Grigor was right about one thing.

194
00:14:54,140 --> 00:14:56,580
The village is awash
with illicit alcohol.

195
00:14:56,581 --> 00:14:59,819
In particular,
a local hooch known as "the Beast".

196
00:14:59,820 --> 00:15:03,540
The victim was attempting to track
down the source of it, we believe.

197
00:15:04,460 --> 00:15:06,620
Any ideas who's running the still?
No.

198
00:15:08,620 --> 00:15:11,099
The woman you were comforting -
what's her name?

199
00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:12,380
Esme Baker.

200
00:15:13,220 --> 00:15:14,980
I'll be in touch.

201
00:15:18,300 --> 00:15:19,460
Sir.

202
00:15:19,461 --> 00:15:22,259
The owner didn't hear anything.
He was around?

203
00:15:22,260 --> 00:15:24,220
No, says he locked up and went out.

204
00:15:28,460 --> 00:15:31,699
We'll need a timeline up to the
moment Slim disappeared.

205
00:15:31,700 --> 00:15:34,739
That won't be easy.
Apparently, he worked on his own.

206
00:15:34,740 --> 00:15:37,699
It's remote out here
and he used his car as his office.

207
00:15:37,700 --> 00:15:39,739
Then finding that is a priority.

208
00:15:39,740 --> 00:15:42,020
It didn't have a tracking
device fitted? No.

209
00:15:42,021 --> 00:15:44,020
But the phone company's
pulling the records.

210
00:15:44,021 --> 00:15:47,820
I've asked them to triangulate the
spot from where he made his last call.

211
00:15:51,180 --> 00:15:53,219
(Mobile rings)

212
00:15:53,220 --> 00:15:54,540
Jones.

213
00:15:56,860 --> 00:15:58,939
John? Oh, how are you feeling?

214
00:15:58,940 --> 00:16:02,259
I've felt better. Cause of death?

215
00:16:02,260 --> 00:16:04,340
I've never seen anything
like it before.

216
00:16:04,341 --> 00:16:06,419
I'm assuming he didn't drown.

217
00:16:06,420 --> 00:16:09,899
It's unlikely. I don't expect to
find any cider in his lungs.

218
00:16:09,900 --> 00:16:12,380
Dead before he entered the vat.
The cut to his head?

219
00:16:12,381 --> 00:16:14,180
Enough to stun him,
but not fatal.

220
00:16:14,181 --> 00:16:15,979
I think cause of death
was the broken neck.

221
00:16:15,980 --> 00:16:17,659
Is that so unusual?

222
00:16:17,660 --> 00:16:19,899
I think it's broken
in several places.

223
00:16:19,900 --> 00:16:22,300
I've seen similar injuries
on babies that have

224
00:16:22,301 --> 00:16:24,699
been shaken, but never
in an adult before.

225
00:16:24,700 --> 00:16:26,179
Shaken?

226
00:16:26,180 --> 00:16:27,859
Violently, from side to side.

227
00:16:27,860 --> 00:16:31,100
It's as if he's been
tossed about by a giant.

228
00:16:33,460 --> 00:16:35,420
A medium-sized giant, a big giant?

229
00:16:36,020 --> 00:16:40,020
Well, um... I'd say 40 foot...
maybe more.

230
00:16:42,340 --> 00:16:45,459
Jones, I want a list of all the
local giants. 40 feet and over.

231
00:16:45,460 --> 00:16:47,019
Right-o, sir.

232
00:16:47,020 --> 00:16:50,459
The last call Slim made was 9:47.

233
00:16:50,460 --> 00:16:53,139
Less than an hour
before his watch was smashed.

234
00:16:53,140 --> 00:16:55,458
A local number:
The Midsomer Herne kennels.

235
00:16:55,459 --> 00:16:57,380
The owner's called Chloe Baker.

236
00:17:00,620 --> 00:17:02,540
(Dogs barking)

237
00:17:13,300 --> 00:17:15,459
Chloe Baker?
Yes.

238
00:17:15,460 --> 00:17:18,459
Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby,
Causton CID.

239
00:17:18,460 --> 00:17:20,440
This is Detective
Sergeant Jones.

240
00:17:20,441 --> 00:17:22,419
We're investigating the
murder of Peter Slim.

241
00:17:22,420 --> 00:17:23,780
A terrible business.

242
00:17:23,781 --> 00:17:27,179
I believe you received a call from
Peter Slim Thursday night.

243
00:17:27,180 --> 00:17:29,219
I didn't talk to him.

244
00:17:29,220 --> 00:17:31,419
That'll be my daughter Esme.

245
00:17:31,420 --> 00:17:32,859
Esme!

246
00:17:32,860 --> 00:17:34,780
(Dogs barking)

247
00:17:39,260 --> 00:17:41,259
So, why did he call?

248
00:17:41,260 --> 00:17:43,419
About the VAT inspection.

249
00:17:43,420 --> 00:17:45,698
He'd found a few mistakes in our
records.

250
00:17:45,699 --> 00:17:47,860
We've got a letter,
if you'd like to see it.

251
00:17:47,861 --> 00:17:49,220
No, no.

252
00:17:50,540 --> 00:17:54,100
He called you quite late in the
evening to talk about VAT.

253
00:17:55,780 --> 00:17:57,540
Yes.

254
00:18:00,620 --> 00:18:03,379
We've been through Peter's
phone records, Esme.

255
00:18:03,380 --> 00:18:05,740
You two talked quite regularly,
didn't you?

256
00:18:06,780 --> 00:18:08,740
It was about VAT, that's all.

257
00:18:09,620 --> 00:18:13,460
At the cider fayre,
I saw Reverend Walker comforting you.

258
00:18:14,540 --> 00:18:16,460
You looked very upset.

259
00:18:17,460 --> 00:18:19,580
When someone you know
is found murdered,

260
00:18:20,540 --> 00:18:22,700
what sort of person wouldn't be
upset?

261
00:18:22,701 --> 00:18:26,540
Who said anything about murder?
You think he fell in that vat?

262
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:29,780
Any idea who might
have put him there?

263
00:18:31,700 --> 00:18:33,060
No.

264
00:18:34,180 --> 00:18:35,380
OK.

265
00:18:36,460 --> 00:18:38,420
Thank you for your help.

266
00:18:45,380 --> 00:18:47,500
(Door closes, retching)

267
00:18:50,900 --> 00:18:52,860
(Retching continues)

268
00:19:03,540 --> 00:19:05,539
All right, Sykesie.

269
00:19:05,540 --> 00:19:07,460
Gosh, hasn't he fed you yet?

270
00:19:11,260 --> 00:19:13,059
Oh, God, you look awful.

271
00:19:13,060 --> 00:19:14,619
Did you get drunk?

272
00:19:14,620 --> 00:19:16,580
I had half a pint of cider...

273
00:19:17,780 --> 00:19:20,299
from a vat that had a dead body
floating in it.

274
00:19:20,300 --> 00:19:21,699
A body?

275
00:19:21,700 --> 00:19:23,140
The missing revenue man.

276
00:19:24,020 --> 00:19:26,019
Have you seen a doctor?

277
00:19:26,020 --> 00:19:28,099
Kate Wilding looked me over.

278
00:19:28,100 --> 00:19:29,780
Oh, really?

279
00:19:30,540 --> 00:19:32,700
I'm sure she gave you
a thorough check-up.

280
00:19:33,980 --> 00:19:36,499
All right, Sykesie?
(Barks)

281
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:37,860
Would you mind?

282
00:19:40,180 --> 00:19:41,940
People in that valley
really are a problem.

283
00:19:41,941 --> 00:19:43,699
What do you mean?

284
00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:46,499
If half their children turn up
for school, it's unusual.

285
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,340
They play truant?
Yeah.

286
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:52,379
It's the parents. They don't see the
point in an education.

287
00:19:52,380 --> 00:19:55,340
The children all end up
working in the orchards anyway.

288
00:19:55,700 --> 00:19:57,880
Perhaps they all end
up working in the

289
00:19:57,881 --> 00:20:00,059
orchards because they've
got no education.

290
00:20:00,060 --> 00:20:01,820
Some of them are really bright, too.

291
00:20:02,940 --> 00:20:05,859
But, it's a tight-knit community
and...

292
00:20:05,860 --> 00:20:08,140
So tight they all clam
up when a tax inspector

293
00:20:08,141 --> 00:20:10,420
turns up in a cider vat
with a broken neck.

294
00:20:12,300 --> 00:20:14,140
(Stomach gurgles)
Excuse me.

295
00:20:37,740 --> 00:20:39,660
Morning, sir.

296
00:20:40,860 --> 00:20:42,780
Get the feeling we're not wanted?

297
00:20:48,060 --> 00:20:49,980
(Murmuring)

298
00:20:50,420 --> 00:20:52,419
So, what have we got?

299
00:20:52,420 --> 00:20:54,579
I've been through Slim's computer.

300
00:20:54,580 --> 00:20:56,580
Anything useful?
Couple of things.

301
00:20:57,620 --> 00:21:00,499
He'd taken an interest
in a barn in the woods nearby.

302
00:21:00,500 --> 00:21:02,579
There, at the top of the valley.

303
00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:05,739
Take a look.
There's some e-mails too.

304
00:21:05,740 --> 00:21:07,139
Who from?

305
00:21:07,140 --> 00:21:09,379
Someone with the codename Goldcrest.

306
00:21:09,380 --> 00:21:11,980
Slim had arranged to meet them
the night he died.

307
00:21:12,660 --> 00:21:14,139
Where?

308
00:21:14,140 --> 00:21:15,820
The message doesn't say.

309
00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:19,220
Better find out who Goldcrest is.

310
00:21:19,740 --> 00:21:21,339
Where will you be?

311
00:21:21,340 --> 00:21:23,419
Getting the buzz...

312
00:21:23,420 --> 00:21:25,340
from the local beekeeper.

313
00:21:56,500 --> 00:21:58,420
(Liquid gurgling)

314
00:22:12,020 --> 00:22:13,900
Found you.

315
00:23:15,220 --> 00:23:17,219
Byron Street?

316
00:23:17,220 --> 00:23:18,740
Yes?

317
00:23:19,740 --> 00:23:21,940
Detective Chief Inspector
John Barnaby.

318
00:23:23,780 --> 00:23:25,940
You sold me some honey.
I did.

319
00:23:26,940 --> 00:23:29,099
Is it safe to come over?

320
00:23:29,100 --> 00:23:31,619
Yes, but stay clear
of the hive at the end.

321
00:23:31,620 --> 00:23:34,819
The queen she's a nasty piece of
work, very aggressive.

322
00:23:34,820 --> 00:23:36,700
The workers pick it up from her.

323
00:23:38,420 --> 00:23:41,099
The queen affects the behaviour of
all the bees?

324
00:23:41,100 --> 00:23:42,980
A hive acts like a single bee.

325
00:23:43,740 --> 00:23:46,280
I'm gonna have to
find her and kill her

326
00:23:46,281 --> 00:23:48,819
and replace her with
a more docile ruler.

327
00:23:48,820 --> 00:23:50,939
Fascinating.

328
00:23:50,940 --> 00:23:53,939
Tell me, Mr Street, were you at home
on Thursday night?

329
00:23:53,940 --> 00:23:55,860
I'm always at home.

330
00:23:56,700 --> 00:23:59,980
And did you hear anything unusual
that night - cries, voices?

331
00:24:00,780 --> 00:24:03,779
Thursday night was pandemonium.
How do you mean?

332
00:24:03,780 --> 00:24:06,619
Frost alarms going off,
left, right and centre.

333
00:24:06,620 --> 00:24:09,500
They started about 9pm
and by half-past, every

334
00:24:09,501 --> 00:24:12,379
able-bodied man was
laying down smudge.

335
00:24:12,380 --> 00:24:14,220
Smudge, what's that?
Smoke.

336
00:24:16,260 --> 00:24:18,420
The frost rolls down
the sides of the hill.

337
00:24:20,140 --> 00:24:23,779
So, we have to light what are called
smudge pots. Oil burners.

338
00:24:23,780 --> 00:24:25,899
The smoke forms a blanket

339
00:24:25,900 --> 00:24:28,579
and stops the frost from settling on
the blossom.

340
00:24:28,580 --> 00:24:30,579
If the blossom gets damaged,

341
00:24:30,580 --> 00:24:32,659
the trees don't produce apples.

342
00:24:32,660 --> 00:24:34,579
You have to be quick, mind.

343
00:24:34,580 --> 00:24:36,500
Thursday night, I was the first out.

344
00:24:36,501 --> 00:24:38,459
How come?

345
00:24:38,460 --> 00:24:40,580
The bees know when the frost is
coming.

346
00:24:40,581 --> 00:24:42,580
They get back to the hive sharp.

347
00:24:42,581 --> 00:24:44,219
Of course.

348
00:24:44,220 --> 00:24:46,339
I saw you in the village this
morning.

349
00:24:46,340 --> 00:24:48,380
You seemed to be keeping your
distance.

350
00:24:49,060 --> 00:24:50,620
I prefer my own company.

351
00:24:51,460 --> 00:24:53,699
I can understand that.

352
00:24:53,700 --> 00:24:57,939
Is there anything you can tell me that
might relate to the death of Peter Slim?

353
00:24:57,940 --> 00:25:00,260
I've told you enough for one day,
Inspector.

354
00:25:01,780 --> 00:25:03,540
I suggest you make yourself scarce.

355
00:25:04,420 --> 00:25:06,698
Because I'm resolved
to kill that queen.

356
00:25:06,699 --> 00:25:08,620
And it could get lively round here.

357
00:25:09,260 --> 00:25:11,659
Oh... I'll take your advice, for
now.

358
00:25:11,660 --> 00:25:14,060

how may I help you to do God's work?

428
00:29:42,740 --> 00:29:44,739
Why did you call Peter Slim?

429
00:29:44,740 --> 00:29:46,939
To report Silas Trout's wrongdoing.

430
00:29:46,940 --> 00:29:50,539
My followers and I had been keeping
an eye on him for some time.

431
00:29:50,540 --> 00:29:52,920
When we found his lair,
my first instinct was

432
00:29:52,921 --> 00:29:55,299
to report it to the
appropriate authorities.

433
00:29:55,300 --> 00:29:57,259
And what did Slim say?

434
00:29:57,260 --> 00:29:59,140
He told me to mind my own business.

435
00:29:59,141 --> 00:30:00,619
Really?

436
00:30:00,620 --> 00:30:04,099
Might that have been because he already
had the barn under surveillance

437
00:30:04,100 --> 00:30:07,059
with the intention of uncovering
Silas Trout's network?

438
00:30:07,060 --> 00:30:09,259
He had a plan, did he, a grand plan?

439
00:30:09,260 --> 00:30:11,660
While he was planning,
the devil was crouched

440
00:30:11,661 --> 00:30:14,060
there, spitting out
his vile ejaculate.

441
00:30:14,900 --> 00:30:17,820
Poisoning the world
one drop at a time.

Drip, drip, drip.

443
00:30:22,140 --> 00:30:25,819
Tell me, have you had difficulties
with alcohol in the past?

444
00:30:25,820 --> 00:30:28,780
Why do you say that?
It would explain your zeal, wouldn't it?

445
00:30:29,500 --> 00:30:31,379
That was a long time ago.

446
00:30:31,380 --> 00:30:34,379
Tell me about it. Were you fond of
the Beast?

447
00:30:34,380 --> 00:30:37,420
Fond is not the word.
The Beast had me in his thrall.

448
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:39,980
I was powerless to resist him.

449
00:30:40,820 --> 00:30:44,540
So I took myself out onto the high
ground one night in winter.

450
00:30:46,380 --> 00:30:49,580
There was a freezing blizzard
blowing from the north.

451
00:30:50,940 --> 00:30:53,059
But I stripped off and stood there,

452
00:30:53,060 --> 00:30:56,060
screaming, begging for the Lord to
take me.

453
00:31:00,100 --> 00:31:02,020
When I awoke the following morning,

454
00:31:02,900 --> 00:31:04,820
the warm sun was on my face.

455
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:09,019
I wasn't dead.

456
00:31:09,020 --> 00:31:12,820
There was a man standing there and
he spoke to me in a voice so soft.

457
00:31:14,380 --> 00:31:17,860
He said,
"Norman, go and do my will."

458
00:31:18,740 --> 00:31:21,100
Do you understand? I have been
chosen!

462
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:34,300

463

00:33:41,420 --> 00:33:42,779
Sir.

484
00:33:42,780 --> 00:33:44,700
Looks like they had dogs with them.

485
00:33:48,740 --> 00:33:50,660
(Motor running)

486
00:34:10,580 --> 00:34:12,140
We have company.

487
00:34:16,020 --> 00:34:17,940
Look what we've got here.

488
00:34:19,460 --> 00:34:21,219
Can I help you?

489
00:34:21,220 --> 00:34:24,260
Do you remember me? I'm Detective...
I know who you are.

490
00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:29,500
Could you tell me what that is?

491
00:34:30,020 --> 00:34:32,580
That's a tree shaker
for harvesting the apples.

492
00:34:35,140 --> 00:34:37,140
Could you show me how it works,
please?

493
00:34:38,340 --> 00:34:40,180
Here, Rob.
Show the man how it works.

494
00:34:41,340 --> 00:34:42,660
OK.

495
00:34:48,220 --> 00:34:49,500
(Low) Watch this.

496
00:34:51,780 --> 00:34:53,819
Go back there, now.

497
00:34:53,820 --> 00:34:55,740
Come on, Rob, run it.

498
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:22,060
They asked!

499
00:35:31,060 --> 00:35:32,700
I reckon that's blood, sir.

500
00:35:33,780 --> 00:35:37,659
Slim's injuries are consistent
with being shaken by such a device.

501
00:35:37,660 --> 00:35:40,179
Kate Wilding was right.
Our murder weapon.

502
00:35:40,180 --> 00:35:41,939
What a way to die.

503
00:35:41,940 --> 00:35:43,740
DEVEREUX: What's going on?

504
00:35:44,260 --> 00:35:46,379
What are you doing on my land?

505
00:35:46,380 --> 00:35:49,499
Stay there, sir.
I'm Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby.

506
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:51,419
This is now a crime scene.

507
00:35:51,420 --> 00:35:53,419
What on earth are you talking about?

508
00:35:53,420 --> 00:35:56,340
Go to the mill. We'll be up to
talk to you shortly, Mr Devereux.

509
00:36:31,060 --> 00:36:32,859
Are you all right, Mr Devereux?

510
00:36:32,860 --> 00:36:34,180
What?

511
00:36:35,620 --> 00:36:37,819
Yes, I'm fine.

512
00:36:37,820 --> 00:36:40,780
Look, er... why don't you take the
afternoon off?

513
00:36:41,660 --> 00:36:43,980
Why?
Because I want you to.

514
00:36:45,140 --> 00:36:46,420
OK.

515
00:36:48,420 --> 00:36:50,340
I'll see you tomorrow, then.

516
00:37:55,700 --> 00:37:57,580
(Bell chimes)

517
00:38:17,900 --> 00:38:19,860
(Voices talking)

518
00:38:29,380 --> 00:38:31,219
Everything all right?

519
00:38:31,220 --> 00:38:33,379
Got the day off.

520
00:38:33,380 --> 00:38:36,380
French is in a panic.
I think he's planning to do a runner.

521
00:38:37,260 --> 00:38:39,380
After what he's done,
I'm not surprised.

522
00:38:48,900 --> 00:38:50,820
What's troubling you, my duck?

523
00:38:54,100 --> 00:38:55,860
I don't want no more part
in all this.

524
00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:58,699
It's nothing to do with me...

525
00:38:58,700 --> 00:39:00,580
all the upset with Esme.

526
00:39:02,740 --> 00:39:04,380
Come on, my duck.

527
00:39:05,740 --> 00:39:07,660
It'll be all right.

528
00:39:09,980 --> 00:39:13,060
Living here we're the luckiest
people on earth.

529
00:39:13,980 --> 00:39:15,700
We're special.

530
00:39:16,820 --> 00:39:18,859
You know that.

531
00:39:18,860 --> 00:39:21,019
And soon...

532
00:39:21,020 --> 00:39:23,020
things are gonna get
even better for us.

533
00:39:23,820 --> 00:39:25,740
You mark my words.

534
00:39:42,620 --> 00:39:44,179
Inspector.

535
00:39:44,180 --> 00:39:46,259
Ah, hello.

536
00:39:46,260 --> 00:39:49,099
I didn't realise this is where
the horns are kept.

537
00:39:49,100 --> 00:39:51,760
Yes, they've been hanging
on these walls since

538
00:39:51,761 --> 00:39:54,419
the church was built,
nearly 700 years ago.

539
00:39:54,420 --> 00:39:57,339
Isn't the Horn Dance some kind of
pagan rite?

540
00:39:57,340 --> 00:39:59,560
It was part of a celebration
known as Beltane,

541
00:39:59,561 --> 00:40:01,779
but the early Christians
were pragmatists.

542
00:40:01,780 --> 00:40:03,820
The locals weren't going
to give it up so they

543
00:40:03,821 --> 00:40:05,859
Christianised it.
Today we call it Easter.

544
00:40:05,860 --> 00:40:07,460
Fascinating.

545
00:40:08,220 --> 00:40:10,180
Has the Horn Dance changed at all?

546
00:40:10,181 --> 00:40:13,419
As performed today, it's a vestigial
and respectable version

547
00:40:13,420 --> 00:40:15,260
of what was once a very savage rite.

548
00:40:15,261 --> 00:40:16,779
It was violent?

549
00:40:16,780 --> 00:40:20,860
Very. Local men would fight with
horns to assert their dominance.

550
00:40:21,540 --> 00:40:23,539
When did it become a dance?

551
00:40:23,540 --> 00:40:25,419
Some time in the 1880s.

552
00:40:25,420 --> 00:40:27,139
Did you see the man who just left?

553
00:40:27,140 --> 00:40:28,859
The beekeeper.

554
00:40:28,860 --> 00:40:32,140
He can remember the old men talking
about it when he was a lad.

555
00:40:33,100 --> 00:40:36,140
The Reverend Grigor...
He was ranting on.

556
00:40:37,020 --> 00:40:39,659
Something to do with...
putting on the skin of an animal?

557
00:40:39,660 --> 00:40:42,179
"Whoever at the calends..."
that's 1st January...

558
00:40:42,180 --> 00:40:45,619
"..goes about in the form of a
stag... " et cetera, et cetera.

559
00:40:45,620 --> 00:40:47,859
It's a papal edict
that was issued in 669.

560
00:40:47,860 --> 00:40:49,819
Grigor's very fond of it.

561
00:40:49,820 --> 00:40:52,140
You don't seem to hold him
in the highest esteem.

562
00:40:52,141 --> 00:40:53,779
The Pope?

563
00:40:53,780 --> 00:40:55,700
(Chuckles) The Reverend Grigor.

564
00:40:57,220 --> 00:40:59,460
Temperance cannot be
imposed upon people.

565
00:41:00,580 --> 00:41:02,340
They have to want it.

566
00:41:04,420 --> 00:41:06,059
Tell me...

567
00:41:06,060 --> 00:41:08,219
when Peter Slim's body was found,

568
00:41:08,220 --> 00:41:10,980
why did you say, "My God,
what have I done?"

569
00:41:14,820 --> 00:41:16,860
I have confidences to keep,
Inspector.

570
00:41:18,180 --> 00:41:20,019
No doubt.

571
00:41:20,020 --> 00:41:22,620
But if you don't reveal
what you know to me

572
00:41:22,621 --> 00:41:25,220
now and someone else is
murdered as a result,

573
00:41:26,100 --> 00:41:28,060
how will that make you feel?

574
00:41:30,900 --> 00:41:32,820
Think about that.

575
00:41:34,780 --> 00:41:36,700
We'll talk again.

576
00:42:04,620 --> 00:42:06,060
Now, this is it.

577
00:42:06,061 --> 00:42:08,180
You follow the scent, OK?

578
00:42:09,700 --> 00:42:10,780
OK.

579
00:42:12,260 --> 00:42:13,340
Right.

580
00:42:14,820 --> 00:42:16,978
That's it. Go on, follow the scent.
Go on.

581
00:42:16,979 --> 00:42:18,820
(Sykes barks)
Get the sock.

582
00:42:23,100 --> 00:42:25,220
Come on. Go, get the sock.

583
00:42:29,020 --> 00:42:30,940
Good boy. You go.

584
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:36,579
What happened to you last night?

585
00:42:36,580 --> 00:42:38,460
I fell asleep on the sofa.

586
00:42:39,980 --> 00:42:42,160
I spoke with the truancy
officer yesterday.

587
00:42:42,161 --> 00:42:44,339
He told me something you
might find interesting.

588
00:42:44,340 --> 00:42:45,460
Yeah?

589
00:42:45,461 --> 00:42:48,939
He has trouble all year round with
Midsomer Abbas and Midsomer Herne.

590
00:42:48,940 --> 00:42:53,179
But there's one period each year when
none of the children turn up for school,

591
00:42:53,180 --> 00:42:55,259
between the 1st and 4th May.

592
00:42:55,260 --> 00:42:57,220
Well, the 1st is the cider fayre.

593
00:43:01,140 --> 00:43:02,779
I'll try and find out for you.

594
00:43:02,780 --> 00:43:04,700
See you later.

595
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:10,659
(Sighs)

596
00:43:10,660 --> 00:43:12,540
I'll get the sock.

597
00:43:20,740 --> 00:43:22,819
Jones.

598
00:43:22,820 --> 00:43:24,819
Morning, sir.
What have you got?

599
00:43:24,820 --> 00:43:26,740
Documents from Slim's briefcase.

600
00:43:27,580 --> 00:43:30,579
Significant sums being deposited
at a bank in Geneva.

601
00:43:30,580 --> 00:43:32,500
Who controls the account?

602
00:43:33,300 --> 00:43:35,539
Well, it's a numbered account.

603
00:43:35,540 --> 00:43:39,859
Numbered, as in we can't see the
identity of the account holder? Exactly.

604
00:43:39,860 --> 00:43:42,379
Well, you'd better find out who that
person is.

605
00:43:42,380 --> 00:43:43,620
How?

606
00:43:46,140 --> 00:43:48,139
Lateral thinking, Jones.

607
00:43:48,140 --> 00:43:50,100
Let me know.

608
00:44:14,780 --> 00:44:16,700
All right, Will?
Hello, Samuel.

609
00:44:16,701 --> 00:44:18,299
Usual?

610
00:44:18,300 --> 00:44:19,939
Oh, yeah.

611
00:44:19,940 --> 00:44:21,939
How's business?

612
00:44:21,940 --> 00:44:24,019
Oh, terrible since the trouble.

613
00:44:24,020 --> 00:44:26,019
It's the same over my way.

614
00:44:26,020 --> 00:44:28,419
No one's in the mood for drinking.

615
00:44:28,420 --> 00:44:30,620
We need to lift people's spirits,
don't we?

616
00:44:31,420 --> 00:44:33,619
Draw them together, have some fun.

617
00:44:33,620 --> 00:44:35,499
(Chuckles)
Cheers.

618
00:44:35,500 --> 00:44:37,740
Good idea.
Maybe we should have a barn dance.

619
00:44:39,820 --> 00:44:43,140
I was thinking of something
more rooted in our tradition.

620
00:44:47,580 --> 00:44:49,699
You must be joking, Samuel.

621
00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:51,620
There hasn't been a Stag for
60 years.

622
00:44:52,380 --> 00:44:54,379
Then it's time there was.

623
00:44:54,380 --> 00:44:56,300
We can't let the rite die out.

624
00:44:57,340 --> 00:44:59,819
A few more years, no one will even
remember it.

625
00:44:59,820 --> 00:45:01,380
I'm not so sure.

626
00:45:04,140 --> 00:45:07,900
I could arrange it so you'd receive
a very warm welcome at my pub, Will.

627
00:45:08,740 --> 00:45:10,620
What would you say to that?

628
00:45:17,220 --> 00:45:19,299
Samuel Quested.

629
00:45:19,300 --> 00:45:21,660
What are you doing on this side of
the hill?

630
00:45:26,060 --> 00:45:28,099
We think it's time for a Stag.

631
00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:29,020
A Stag?

632
00:45:31,620 --> 00:45:32,900
Oh!

633
00:45:32,901 --> 00:45:34,739
A Stag?

634
00:45:34,740 --> 00:45:36,219
Good idea.

635
00:45:36,220 --> 00:45:38,219
Then it's settled.

636
00:45:38,220 --> 00:45:40,259
You sort things out your end, Will.

637
00:45:40,260 --> 00:45:42,299
Beltane is Friday night.

638
00:45:42,300 --> 00:45:44,020
And Chloe...

639
00:45:45,820 --> 00:45:47,540
mind you leave your door open.

640
00:45:49,860 --> 00:45:51,780
Don't you worry about that.

641
00:46:28,700 --> 00:46:30,779
What is it that's going on here,
Byron?

642
00:46:30,780 --> 00:46:32,939
Why was Peter Slim killed?

643
00:46:32,940 --> 00:46:36,699
He was a Revenue man. You don't think
that had something to do with it?

644
00:46:36,700 --> 00:46:38,660
There have always been Revenue men.

645
00:46:39,420 --> 00:46:42,459
None of the others have been murdered
- Not recently, anyway.

646
00:46:42,460 --> 00:46:45,240
I have the feeling that
there is more to the murder

647
00:46:45,241 --> 00:46:48,020
of Peter Slim than a bit
of illicit distilling.

648
00:46:49,380 --> 00:46:51,220
I'm right, aren't I?
Look...

649
00:46:51,820 --> 00:46:53,740
I don't condone what happened.

650
00:46:54,620 --> 00:46:56,779
But I'm an old man.

651
00:46:56,780 --> 00:46:59,300
And I want to live out
my remaining days in peace.

652
00:47:00,100 --> 00:47:02,020
So, I won't be pointing the finger.

653
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:04,700
Is someone threatening you?

654
00:47:06,580 --> 00:47:08,659
This is my home.

655
00:47:08,660 --> 00:47:10,180
It's all I have.

656
00:47:11,740 --> 00:47:13,620
Who killed Peter Slim?

657
00:47:14,940 --> 00:47:16,860
If you want to know who did it...

658
00:47:18,980 --> 00:47:20,940
ask the trees.

659
00:47:32,460 --> 00:47:34,940
I've cracked it.
The murder?

660
00:47:34,941 --> 00:47:37,899
No, the Swiss bank -
the identity of the account holder.

661
00:47:37,900 --> 00:47:39,580
Excellent.
Thank you.

662
00:47:39,581 --> 00:47:42,299
Devereux has been done for drink
driving - banned.

663
00:47:42,300 --> 00:47:44,099
So I talked to the cab company.

664
00:47:44,100 --> 00:47:48,939
On every day a deposit was made in
Geneva over the last two years,

665
00:47:48,940 --> 00:47:51,060
Devereux took a cab to
Heathrow Airport.

666
00:47:52,380 --> 00:47:53,820
Lateral thinking.

667
00:47:53,821 --> 00:47:55,939
Well done, Jones.

668
00:47:55,940 --> 00:47:58,700
The question is,
where is he getting the money from?

669
00:48:11,540 --> 00:48:13,500
Are you a fishing man, Mr Devereux?

670
00:48:14,940 --> 00:48:16,020
Yes.

671
00:48:16,021 --> 00:48:17,579
Did you catch that?

672
00:48:17,580 --> 00:48:20,139
Yes, on the Findhorn in Scotland two
years ago.

673
00:48:20,140 --> 00:48:21,620
Nearly 19 pounds.

674
00:48:21,621 --> 00:48:23,580
That is a big fish.

675
00:48:25,620 --> 00:48:27,620
Why do you fly to Geneva
every month?

676
00:48:27,621 --> 00:48:29,460
To ski.
In June?

677
00:48:30,620 --> 00:48:33,259
Have you heard of drawback fraud,
Mr Devereux?

678
00:48:33,260 --> 00:48:35,419
It's pretty simple.

679
00:48:35,420 --> 00:48:39,459
You export your alcohol to a country
where the duty's low, like France,

680
00:48:39,460 --> 00:48:41,900
you leave it in a bonded warehouse
for a day or two,

681
00:48:41,901 --> 00:48:44,499
and then reimport it
back into the UK,

682
00:48:44,500 --> 00:48:47,099
where the duty is high,
and sell it on.

683
00:48:47,100 --> 00:48:49,979
The difference between the two rates,
you pocket.

684
00:48:49,980 --> 00:48:53,939
Or in your case,
you hide it in a Swiss bank account.

685
00:48:53,940 --> 00:48:55,859
I have no idea...

686
00:48:55,860 --> 00:48:58,739
Peter Slim's file on you.
He had you bang to rights.

687
00:48:58,740 --> 00:49:01,218
That's why you killed him.
I didn't kill him!

688
00:49:01,219 --> 00:49:02,460
But you admit the fraud?

689
00:49:08,220 --> 00:49:11,060
My family have owned this land
for hundreds of years.

690
00:49:12,020 --> 00:49:14,580
The mill started losing money
in the '90s.

691
00:49:15,260 --> 00:49:17,180
I was faced with some stark choices.

692
00:49:19,060 --> 00:49:20,980
The thought of losing this place...

693
00:49:22,140 --> 00:49:23,899
the shame.

694
00:49:23,900 --> 00:49:26,060
So, you started supporting the
business by fraud?

695
00:49:28,300 --> 00:49:30,260
The Revenue were the thieves, not me.

696
00:49:31,620 --> 00:49:34,020
Where were you on the night of
Peter Slim's murder?

697
00:49:34,021 --> 00:49:35,339
Look...

698
00:49:35,340 --> 00:49:37,260
I'm a chronic alcoholic!

699
00:49:38,500 --> 00:49:40,299
Can't you see?

700
00:49:40,300 --> 00:49:42,520
All I can remember is taking
a taxi down to the village.

701
00:49:42,521 --> 00:49:44,739
My mind's a blank after that.

702
00:49:44,740 --> 00:49:46,859
Arrest him.

703
00:49:46,860 --> 00:49:48,899
On which charge, sir?
Both.

704
00:49:48,900 --> 00:49:51,019
Fraud and murder.

705
00:49:51,020 --> 00:49:53,699
Take him in then call out
the SOCO team.

706
00:49:53,700 --> 00:49:56,339
I want this place searched
from top to bottom.

707
00:49:56,340 --> 00:49:59,100
And make sure that
Forensics check his finger

708
00:49:59,101 --> 00:50:01,860
prints against those found
on the wading staff.

709
00:50:02,700 --> 00:50:06,980
Wading staff? The big stick we
found next to Peter Slim's car.

710
00:50:07,900 --> 00:50:10,320
Fly fishermen use them
to keep their balance

711
00:50:10,321 --> 00:50:12,740
when they are wading in
fast-flowing rivers.

712
00:50:16,860 --> 00:50:18,980
I'm just off for a stroll.
I won't be long.

713
00:50:23,180 --> 00:50:25,339
Anthony Devereux...

714
00:50:25,340 --> 00:50:28,260
I'm arresting you on suspicion
of murder and fraud...

715
00:50:40,300 --> 00:50:41,540
(Sniffs)

716
00:51:04,260 --> 00:51:06,259
He's been at this for years.

717
00:51:06,260 --> 00:51:08,419
There's millions involved.

718
00:51:08,420 --> 00:51:10,819
That's more than enough motive
to kill Slim.

719
00:51:10,820 --> 00:51:12,859
True.

720
00:51:12,860 --> 00:51:14,820
But he's a wreck.

721
00:51:15,700 --> 00:51:18,499
How could he have pursued a fit man
like Peter Slim

722
00:51:18,500 --> 00:51:20,460
through rough country
for over a mile?

723
00:51:21,060 --> 00:51:24,139
You've changed your tune, sir.
You don't think he killed him?

724
00:51:24,140 --> 00:51:25,258
I doubt it.

725
00:51:25,259 --> 00:51:27,180
So why do we arrest him for murder?

726
00:51:27,181 --> 00:51:30,579
If he didn't do it himself,
he probably has a fair idea who did.

727
00:51:30,580 --> 00:51:32,099
He might crack.

728
00:51:32,100 --> 00:51:33,980
Call Revenue and Customs.

729
00:51:35,340 --> 00:51:37,899
They can investigate the fraud
allegation.

730
00:51:37,900 --> 00:51:40,340
And charge Silas Trout with
the distilling offence

731
00:51:40,341 --> 00:51:42,780
and then release him.
His alibi checks out.

732
00:51:44,060 --> 00:51:45,780
What alibi?

733
00:51:46,380 --> 00:51:49,579
A perfect blossom,
undamaged by frost.

734
00:51:49,580 --> 00:51:53,579
Trout says he was out laying smudge
that night.

735
00:51:53,580 --> 00:51:55,500
This proves he's telling the truth.

736
00:52:06,420 --> 00:52:08,419
Please, get me a drink.

737
00:52:08,420 --> 00:52:10,499
I beg you!

738
00:52:10,500 --> 00:52:12,420
Somebody get me a bloody drink!

739
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:16,260
The Beast! I need the Beast!

740
00:52:19,060 --> 00:52:21,700
Somebody get me a bloody drink!

741
00:52:23,540 --> 00:52:25,380
(Knock at door)
Come in.

742
00:52:29,500 --> 00:52:31,980
Ah, Prudence,
I'm just finishing my sermon.

743
00:52:31,981 --> 00:52:34,619
Should I ask my father to ring the
bell for evening worship?

744
00:52:34,620 --> 00:52:35,820
Yes, thank you.

745
00:52:46,700 --> 00:52:48,339
What are you doing here?

746
00:52:48,340 --> 00:52:50,460
You grassed me up to the Revenue,
Norman.

747
00:52:52,500 --> 00:52:54,219
In this valley,

748
00:52:54,220 --> 00:52:55,980
that's worse than a sin.

749
00:52:57,060 --> 00:52:59,179
I want you to confess.

750
00:52:59,180 --> 00:53:02,659
I want you to ask the Lord for
forgiveness for what you did to me.

751
00:53:02,660 --> 00:53:04,580
I did the bidding of the Lord.

752
00:53:05,620 --> 00:53:06,500
Really?

753
00:53:18,140 --> 00:53:20,139
Go on, then, Norman.

754
00:53:20,140 --> 00:53:23,060
Show God how much stronger he's made
you over the Beast.

755
00:53:26,180 --> 00:53:28,619
I will not be tested by you.

756
00:53:28,620 --> 00:53:30,419
Oh, come on, Norman.

757
00:53:30,420 --> 00:53:34,100
Surely you're not afraid of a little
glass of fermented apple juice?

758
00:53:47,620 --> 00:53:49,099
You see?

759
00:53:49,100 --> 00:53:51,179
Beside the Lord,

760
00:53:51,180 --> 00:53:53,060
he's nothing.

761
00:53:57,340 --> 00:54:00,379
First and greatest sin is pride,
Norman.

762
00:54:00,380 --> 00:54:02,020
Pride.

763
00:54:14,460 --> 00:54:16,259
(Bell chimes)

764
00:54:16,260 --> 00:54:17,700
The bell tolls.

765
00:54:30,020 --> 00:54:32,139
I've just spoken to Forensics.

766
00:54:32,140 --> 00:54:35,179
The fingerprints on the wading staff
match Devereux's.

767
00:54:35,180 --> 00:54:36,420
Really?

768
00:54:39,260 --> 00:54:41,379
OK, how about this?

769
00:54:41,380 --> 00:54:44,139
Devereux discovered he was being
investigated.

770
00:54:44,140 --> 00:54:47,579
Slim had arranged to meet his
informant Goldcrest,

771
00:54:47,580 --> 00:54:49,940
but, Devereux and his
accomplices followed

772
00:54:49,941 --> 00:54:52,299
him into the woods,
attacked him.

773
00:54:52,300 --> 00:54:56,059
Slim was dazed, even a wreck like
Devereux could keep up with him.

774
00:54:56,060 --> 00:55:00,059
And... it was Devereux's tractor
that shook him to death.

775
00:55:00,060 --> 00:55:03,900
My impression is that the motivation
for the crime is altogether...

776
00:55:05,460 --> 00:55:07,420
more complex.

777
00:55:08,900 --> 00:55:10,620
We need to find out
who Goldcrest is.

778
00:55:10,621 --> 00:55:12,459
Have a think about it.

779
00:55:12,460 --> 00:55:13,740
Uh-huh.

780
00:55:48,860 --> 00:55:50,699
That'll do.

781
00:55:50,700 --> 00:55:52,620
(Low chatter)

782
00:55:59,900 --> 00:56:01,980
Did you speak to the
Reverend Father?

783
00:56:01,981 --> 00:56:05,099
Yes. And he told me to carry on with
my duties.

784
00:56:05,100 --> 00:56:08,020
All right. Let's begin.

785
00:56:14,300 --> 00:56:16,899
♪ Stop, poor sinners

786
00:56:16,900 --> 00:56:18,939

00:56:24,500 --> 00:56:33,460

789
00:56:34,660 --> 00:56:36,739
Hi.

790
00:56:36,740 --> 00:56:40,379
I thought you'd finished looking
round. Oh, we have. Don't worry.

791
00:56:40,380 --> 00:56:43,619
Could you make a quick copy of that
for me, please?

792
00:56:43,620 --> 00:56:45,460
Of course.
Thanks.

793
00:56:49,500 --> 00:56:51,380
(Beeps and whirrs)

794
00:56:59,460 --> 00:57:01,420
Thank you.

795
00:57:06,540 --> 00:57:08,619
Who uses the photocopier?

796
00:57:08,620 --> 00:57:11,979
Mr Devereux sometimes, but me mostly.

797
00:57:11,980 --> 00:57:14,699
I see.

798
00:57:14,700 --> 00:57:16,620
Goldcrest.

799
00:57:17,380 --> 00:57:18,900
Does the name mean anything to you?

800
00:57:19,940 --> 00:57:21,820
No. Nothing.

801
00:57:23,340 --> 00:57:26,940
That's not the truth... is it, Alice?

802
00:57:30,580 --> 00:57:34,059
(Singing continues)

803
00:57:34,060 --> 00:57:38,739
♪ Fear you not that iron rod

805
00:58:02,380 --> 00:58:05,580

806
00:58:06,500 --> 00:58:08,579
He wanted proof.

807
00:58:08,580 --> 00:58:10,379
Of what?

808
00:58:10,380 --> 00:58:12,420
That Devereux was cheating
on the duty.

809
00:58:13,820 --> 00:58:17,459
But Devereux was your employer.
Didn't you feel any loyalty to him?

810
00:58:17,460 --> 00:58:20,059
There's people's jobs at risk.
Someone had to stop him.

811
00:58:20,060 --> 00:58:22,059
Of course. You did the right thing.

812
00:58:22,060 --> 00:58:25,980
The meeting with Peter Slim in the
woods. What happened?

813
00:58:27,300 --> 00:58:28,899
I arrived,

814
00:58:28,900 --> 00:58:32,179
gave him the copies of the Swiss
bank statements like we'd agreed.

815
00:58:32,180 --> 00:58:34,100
Did you see anyone else there?
No.

816
00:58:34,101 --> 00:58:36,180
Mr Devereux didn't follow you?
No.

817
00:58:37,900 --> 00:58:39,460
I don't know.

818
00:58:40,460 --> 00:58:42,380
I just gave Peter the statements.

819
00:58:43,260 --> 00:58:45,179
That's all I know.

820
00:58:45,180 --> 00:58:47,940
Don't know nothing about who killed
him, I swear it.

821
00:58:48,700 --> 00:58:51,019
What they did to him was terrible.

822
00:58:51,020 --> 00:58:52,860
Poor Esme.

823
00:58:57,020 --> 00:58:59,340
You're friends with Esme Baker?

824
00:59:00,980 --> 00:59:02,900
Well, yeah.

825
00:59:04,300 --> 00:59:06,380
Was Esme having a relationship
with Peter Slim?

826
00:59:10,100 --> 00:59:13,460
I've told you more than I should
have. Now I want to go home.

827
00:59:19,460 --> 00:59:20,580
(Knocks)

828
00:59:23,420 --> 00:59:25,340
(Knocking)

829
00:59:31,620 --> 00:59:33,580
Reverend Grigor?

830
00:59:41,620 --> 00:59:43,540
Reverend Grigor?

831
00:59:49,380 --> 00:59:51,019
Oh!

832
00:59:51,020 --> 00:59:52,980
Reverend Father, you...

833
00:59:56,060 --> 00:59:58,859
Reverend Father?
Come here, my child!

834
00:59:58,860 --> 01:00:00,659
Oh, my Lord!

835
01:00:00,660 --> 01:00:02,979
Ooh!
(Squeals)

836
01:00:02,980 --> 01:00:04,900
No! No, please!

837
01:00:07,540 --> 01:00:09,380
Come here!
No!

838
01:00:09,740 --> 01:00:12,979
Child! Child!
He's gone mad!

839
01:00:12,980 --> 01:00:14,739
I am the Beast!

840
01:00:14,740 --> 01:00:16,779
Help! The Beast!

841
01:00:16,780 --> 01:00:19,379
He's been drinking the Beast!
He's gone mad!

842
01:00:19,380 --> 01:00:21,659
(Reverend cries out)

843
01:00:21,660 --> 01:00:23,620
I'll see you in hell!

844
01:00:24,460 --> 01:00:28,260
I'll see you in hell!
I'll see you in hell!

845
01:00:35,300 --> 01:00:37,220
(Barking)

846
01:00:52,300 --> 01:00:54,260
(Barking and whining)

847
01:01:01,860 --> 01:01:03,940
Is there somewhere
private we can talk?

848
01:01:04,900 --> 01:01:07,060
This is as private
as it gets around here.

849
01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:10,299
OK.

850
01:01:10,300 --> 01:01:13,360
Esme, you spoke to Peter
Slim on the phone

851
01:01:13,361 --> 01:01:16,420
practically every day for
the past six months.

852
01:01:17,300 --> 01:01:21,980
So? So, if it was no big deal,
why did you keep it a secret?

853
01:01:22,860 --> 01:01:27,140
He was a revenue man. Do you know
what that means around here?

854
01:01:28,740 --> 01:01:32,180
No one can bring Peter back,
so, please, leave me in peace.

855
01:01:35,460 --> 01:01:37,420
Is that what you really want, Esme?

856
01:01:37,421 --> 01:01:40,019
For the guilty men to walk free?

857
01:01:40,020 --> 01:01:43,819
The men who pursued Peter
through the fields with dogs,

858
01:01:43,820 --> 01:01:47,059
before crushing him in an apple
harvester and shaking him to death?

859
01:01:47,060 --> 01:01:48,980
Stop!

860
01:01:50,820 --> 01:01:52,940
I think you know who killed Peter.

861
01:01:53,940 --> 01:01:55,819
But you're too afraid to say.

862
01:01:55,820 --> 01:01:57,780
Please leave me alone.

863
01:01:59,780 --> 01:02:01,380
(Whines)

864
01:02:10,180 --> 01:02:16,660
Esme Baker and Peter Slim were married
here three weeks ago, by you.

865
01:02:17,820 --> 01:02:19,740
In secret, I take it?

866
01:02:20,140 --> 01:02:23,499
Not strictly legal, but they were
married in the sight of God.

867
01:02:23,500 --> 01:02:30,300
Those whom God has joined together,
let no man put asunder.

868
01:02:32,300 --> 01:02:35,339
BARNABY: And Alice Quested was the
only witness.

869
01:02:35,340 --> 01:02:37,260
It was a very brave thing to do.

870
01:02:38,100 --> 01:02:40,760
Local girls are expected
to marry locally.

871
01:02:40,761 --> 01:02:43,419
But Peter and Esme were
very much in love.

872
01:02:43,420 --> 01:02:45,300
You supported them?

873
01:02:46,420 --> 01:02:48,619
I was a fool.

874
01:02:48,620 --> 01:02:50,500
A complete fool.

875
01:02:51,380 --> 01:02:55,620
Peter Slim is dead
and Esme Baker's life is ruined.

876
01:02:57,860 --> 01:02:59,740
Sam, thank God.

877
01:03:03,900 --> 01:03:05,179
How are you?

878
01:03:05,180 --> 01:03:07,260
Terrible. Terrible!

879
01:03:07,980 --> 01:03:10,059
This place is full of maniacs!

880
01:03:10,060 --> 01:03:13,779
They howl like animals all night,
they threaten me by day.

881
01:03:13,780 --> 01:03:15,939
I haven't had a wink of sleep.

882
01:03:15,940 --> 01:03:18,800
This is the longest I've
been without a drink

883
01:03:18,801 --> 01:03:21,659
since I was 12 years old.
My head's pounding!

884
01:03:21,660 --> 01:03:24,859
Don't you worry,
you'll be out of here soon enough.

885
01:03:24,860 --> 01:03:26,780
How? Someone's stitched me up.

886
01:03:27,620 --> 01:03:30,058
Don't you worry about a thing.
Eh?

887
01:03:30,059 --> 01:03:31,980
Because you've got a
cast-iron alibi!

888
01:03:35,180 --> 01:03:38,000
This is an affidavit
signed by 12 people,

889
01:03:38,001 --> 01:03:40,819
stating that on the
night of the murder

890
01:03:40,820 --> 01:03:43,620
you were slumped in the snug of my
pub all evening.

891
01:03:45,300 --> 01:03:47,620
You drunken old soak.
You're in the clear!

892
01:03:49,140 --> 01:03:50,739
Oh, my God!

893
01:03:50,740 --> 01:03:52,660
(Laughs)

894
01:03:54,940 --> 01:03:59,740
Devereux's solicitor is saying the
signatories are of impeccable character.

895
01:04:00,700 --> 01:04:03,580
He wants the murder charge
dropped immediately.

896
01:04:04,220 --> 01:04:06,059
Fine.

897
01:04:06,060 --> 01:04:08,179
You agree?
Yeah.

898
01:04:08,180 --> 01:04:09,780
We'll drop the murder charge.

899
01:04:10,940 --> 01:04:13,900
Thank you. This is just what I need.

900
01:04:16,340 --> 01:04:18,260
(Knocking)

901
01:04:25,140 --> 01:04:27,260
(Bell jangles)

902
01:04:28,380 --> 01:04:31,420
My dad's out.
It's you I want to talk to.

903
01:04:40,980 --> 01:04:42,140
I'm saying nothing.

904
01:04:46,780 --> 01:04:48,540
Have you seen this before?

905
01:04:50,340 --> 01:04:52,340
I can't bear all this.

906
01:04:54,460 --> 01:04:57,459
I want to help you, Alice,
and I want to help your friend, Esme,

907
01:04:57,460 --> 01:04:59,940
but I can only do that if you will
help me.

908
01:05:02,020 --> 01:05:04,580
I know that Esme and Peter
Slim were married.

909
01:05:06,220 --> 01:05:09,020
And I know that you
have seen this before.

910
01:05:11,260 --> 01:05:13,100
Hangs on the wall
of Mr Devereux's office.

911
01:05:14,220 --> 01:05:17,820
I want to know if you saw it
on the night of Peter Slim's murder.

912
01:05:18,580 --> 01:05:19,940
I can't do that.

913
01:05:19,941 --> 01:05:23,500
It was used to beat Esme's husband
nearly to death.

914
01:05:24,220 --> 01:05:27,739
And I believe you must have seen it
on the night that he died.

915
01:05:27,740 --> 01:05:30,779
(Tearfully) I can't.
I think you saw it in this bar.

916
01:05:30,780 --> 01:05:34,779
And I think you saw someone put it
into Mr Devereux's hands

917
01:05:34,780 --> 01:05:38,500
as he lay unconscious
in the corner here.

918
01:05:40,380 --> 01:05:41,300
(Bell jangles)

919
01:05:44,260 --> 01:05:46,300
Afternoon, gents.

920
01:05:51,340 --> 01:05:53,099
Are you all right, my duck?

921
01:05:53,100 --> 01:05:55,060
You look a bit peaky.

922
01:05:56,380 --> 01:05:59,180
Best get yourself upstairs.
Take a nap, eh?

923
01:06:06,620 --> 01:06:09,820
Now, what can I get you, gents?

924
01:06:10,980 --> 01:06:12,900
We'll be on our way.

925
01:06:18,940 --> 01:06:19,980
All right?

926
01:06:20,460 --> 01:06:22,380
All right?

927
01:06:25,980 --> 01:06:28,859
What did they want?
Don't you worry about it.

928
01:06:28,860 --> 01:06:31,779
Right, you boys better have
a few glasses of this.

929
01:06:31,780 --> 01:06:33,859
Ohh!
(Chuckles)

930
01:06:33,860 --> 01:06:36,179
Because... tonight's the night.

931
01:06:36,180 --> 01:06:37,979
BOTH: Hey!

932
01:06:37,980 --> 01:06:40,420
One at a time, one at a time.

933
01:06:41,060 --> 01:06:43,020
(Bees buzzing)

934
01:07:15,980 --> 01:07:18,379
Hey, the custody sergeant just
called.

935
01:07:18,380 --> 01:07:19,920
They've got the Reverend
Grigor locked up.

936
01:07:19,921 --> 01:07:21,459
He was arrested last night.

937
01:07:21,460 --> 01:07:24,020
What for?
Drunk and disorderly, and assault.

938
01:07:25,780 --> 01:07:29,700
He went on a rampage in the chapel.
One of his followers called the police.

939
01:07:31,460 --> 01:07:35,180
He may be a drunk,
but he didn't kill Peter Slim.

940
01:07:36,420 --> 01:07:38,380
I, er... spoke to the trees.

941
01:07:38,860 --> 01:07:41,220
Frost-damaged apple blossom.

942
01:07:42,620 --> 01:07:44,880
The owner of the tree
that came from didn't lay

943
01:07:44,881 --> 01:07:47,139
down any smudge on the
night of the frost.

944
01:07:47,140 --> 01:07:52,180
Possibly because he was busy murdering
Peter Slim on Devereux's land.

945
01:07:55,420 --> 01:07:56,980
You going out?
Won't be long.

946
01:07:58,420 --> 01:08:01,020
I want you to make yourself scarce.
I've got a visitor coming.

947
01:08:02,260 --> 01:08:04,619
Is that why you're dressed
like a tart?

948
01:08:04,620 --> 01:08:05,780
Go on, clear off.

949
01:08:10,260 --> 01:08:12,299
(Rowdy laughter)

950
01:08:12,300 --> 01:08:15,619
♪ Wassail, wassail, all over the town

951

955
01:08:26,700 --> 01:08:28,620
(Laughter and shouting)

956
01:08:33,620 --> 01:08:36,019
Evening, Vicar. What will it be?

957
01:08:36,020 --> 01:08:37,979
I know what's going on, Samuel.

958
01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:40,539
Either you call it off,
or I call the police.

959
01:08:40,540 --> 01:08:44,180
You got your ways, Vicar,
and we've got ours.

960
01:08:53,060 --> 01:08:54,780
Honey on your toast, Sykesie?

961
01:08:57,420 --> 01:09:03,499
Did you know that when the queen bee
goes on her maiden flight,

962
01:09:03,500 --> 01:09:08,579
the workers slim her down so that
she'll be able to fly far enough away

963
01:09:08,580 --> 01:09:12,260
to avoid mating with drones
from her own hive?

964
01:09:13,660 --> 01:09:17,740
That way the gene pool is refreshed.

965
01:09:18,020 --> 01:09:20,419
Yeah, like the locals used to do.

966
01:09:20,420 --> 01:09:22,459
I'm sorry?

967
01:09:22,460 --> 01:09:24,600
Well, in remote areas,
where the roads were

968
01:09:24,601 --> 01:09:26,739
bad, villages could
easily become inbred...

969
01:09:26,740 --> 01:09:28,859
with dire consequences.

970
01:09:28,860 --> 01:09:31,500
So... on one night each
year, the men from

971
01:09:31,501 --> 01:09:34,139
one village would head
through the woods

972
01:09:34,140 --> 01:09:37,779
and, er... couple with women
from the next village.

973
01:09:37,780 --> 01:09:39,339
And vice versa.

974
01:09:39,340 --> 01:09:41,738
That way the gene pool
was constantly refreshed.

975
01:09:41,739 --> 01:09:43,900
It's the origin of the expression
"Stag Night".

976
01:09:45,620 --> 01:09:46,939
What?

977
01:09:46,940 --> 01:09:49,779
This ritual,
when does it take place?

978
01:09:49,780 --> 01:09:51,859
Beltane. The 4th of May.
(Mobile rings)

979
01:09:51,860 --> 01:09:54,540
Which... is tonight.

980
01:09:57,860 --> 01:09:59,379
Barnaby.

981
01:09:59,380 --> 01:10:03,219
I think you should know, there's trouble
in the village. It's getting very ugly.

982
01:10:03,220 --> 01:10:05,020
I know about the Stag.
Where are you?

983
01:10:05,021 --> 01:10:08,179
In the church.
Stay where you are. I'm on my way.

984
01:10:08,180 --> 01:10:10,060
(Distant shouting)

985
01:10:14,300 --> 01:10:16,099
(Blast of horn)

986
01:10:16,100 --> 01:10:18,419
(Chatter dies down)

987
01:10:18,420 --> 01:10:21,179
The night of Beltane has come.

988
01:10:21,180 --> 01:10:23,820
It's time to follow me over the hill
to Midsomer Herne.

989
01:10:24,900 --> 01:10:28,579
Men of Midsomer Abbas, happy hunting!

990
01:10:28,580 --> 01:10:30,259
(Cheer)

991
01:10:30,260 --> 01:10:32,180
(Blast of horn)

992
01:10:39,860 --> 01:10:41,780
(Laughter and rowdy chatter)

993
01:10:49,020 --> 01:10:52,739
Are you sure about this, Will?
I don't want no trouble.

994
01:10:52,740 --> 01:10:57,019
It's Samuel Quested's idea. Don't
worry. It's all sorted out their end.

995
01:10:57,020 --> 01:10:58,819
But my wife...

996
01:10:58,820 --> 01:11:02,219
Married to you, I'm sure
she'll be thrilled.

997
01:11:02,220 --> 01:11:04,019
(Laughter)

998
01:11:04,020 --> 01:11:07,140
You need to get yourself
manned-up a bit, Jonathan Oak!

999
01:11:07,660 --> 01:11:09,699
Go, go, go! Whoa!

1000
01:11:09,700 --> 01:11:10,980
(Cheer)

1001
01:11:15,980 --> 01:11:18,620
Go on then, Alice.
Nothing to worry about.

1002
01:11:19,460 --> 01:11:22,020
Don't do this, Dad. Please.

1003
01:11:23,740 --> 01:11:25,660
Go to your room.

1004
01:11:27,020 --> 01:11:29,420
Do as I say... now.

1005
01:11:52,220 --> 01:11:54,140
(Drunken chatter)

1006
01:11:57,340 --> 01:12:00,019
You'll be no use when you get there.
(Laughter)

1007
01:12:00,020 --> 01:12:01,819
(Chatter continues)

1008
01:12:01,820 --> 01:12:03,500
You won't be running anywhere!

1009
01:12:04,500 --> 01:12:06,420
(Panting)

1010
01:12:07,500 --> 01:12:10,060
Come on now!
(Man vomits)

1011
01:12:12,340 --> 01:12:14,260
This ain't such a good idea, Will.

1012
01:12:15,660 --> 01:12:19,100
The Stag...
It's from a different age.

1013
01:12:20,820 --> 01:12:23,820
We can't just go down there
and have our way with who we like.

1014
01:12:25,060 --> 01:12:27,140
We can't let the rite die out!

1015
01:12:28,460 --> 01:12:31,340
To hell with it.
No-one's touching my wife.

1016
01:12:32,580 --> 01:12:34,500
I'm going home!

1017
01:12:37,740 --> 01:12:40,100
You gutless wimps!

1018
01:12:59,780 --> 01:13:01,979
Hello? Reverend Walker?

1019
01:13:01,980 --> 01:13:03,900
Try the vestry.

1020
01:13:05,340 --> 01:13:08,180
Reverend Walker?
Chief Inspector Barnaby. Hello?

1021
01:13:11,820 --> 01:13:13,300
Not in the vestry.

1022
01:13:24,580 --> 01:13:26,300
Sir?

1023
01:13:44,700 --> 01:13:46,419
Call for armed backup.

1024
01:13:46,420 --> 01:13:50,180
Get Wilding and Forensics here.
We've got to get to Midsomer Herne.

1025
01:13:57,860 --> 01:14:00,300
Hello? You're breaking up.
Hold on a minute.

1026
01:14:00,301 --> 01:14:01,540
(Air hisses)

1027
01:14:01,740 --> 01:14:03,459
What now?

1028
01:14:03,460 --> 01:14:06,539
We do what the locals do.
We go over the hill on foot.

1029
01:14:06,540 --> 01:14:08,539
Now!

1030
01:14:08,540 --> 01:14:10,460
I can't get a signal round here.

1031
01:14:12,020 --> 01:14:14,980
(Drunken chatter and laughter)

1032
01:14:18,700 --> 01:14:20,859
What's wrong?
(Panting)

1033
01:14:20,860 --> 01:14:23,500
It's just me. They've all gone home.

1034
01:14:24,980 --> 01:14:26,700
We should call it off, Samuel.

1035
01:14:26,701 --> 01:14:28,420
There'll be trouble
if you go down there.

1036
01:14:28,421 --> 01:14:30,340
Too bad.

1037
01:14:31,300 --> 01:14:33,700
There's a welcome waiting for you
over there, Will.

1038
01:14:33,701 --> 01:14:35,580
(Laughter)
Go on!

1039
01:14:37,100 --> 01:14:39,099
MEN: Go on, Will!

1040
01:14:39,100 --> 01:14:40,459
Come on, boys!

1041
01:14:40,460 --> 01:14:43,699
♪ Wassail, wassail, all over the town

1042
01:14:43,700 --> 01:14:46,660

1043
01:14:50,180 --> 01:14:52,060
(Barking)

1044
01:14:59,740 --> 01:15:01,700
Shut up!

1045
01:15:14,220 --> 01:15:15,580
(Barking continues)

1046
01:15:21,020 --> 01:15:23,460
I told you I had a visitor.
Go on up to your room.

1047
01:15:24,380 --> 01:15:26,300
Fine. I'm going to bed.

1048
01:15:29,260 --> 01:15:30,860
(Owl screeches)

1049
01:15:37,220 --> 01:15:39,180
(Sobs)

1050
01:15:51,900 --> 01:15:56,059
Sam Quested somehow discovered that
Peter Slim and Esme Baker were married.

1051
01:15:56,060 --> 01:15:58,259
But why kill him?
Power.

1052
01:15:58,260 --> 01:16:01,259
A local girl marrying an outsider
threatened the old order.

1053
01:16:01,260 --> 01:16:03,620
Quested had to assert his authority
over the valley.

1054
01:16:03,621 --> 01:16:06,899
It's a cult basic: You control the
women and the men will follow.

1055
01:16:06,900 --> 01:16:08,500
Yeah. But why would
he frame Devereux and

1056
01:16:08,501 --> 01:16:10,099
then provide him
with a false alibi?

1057
01:16:10,100 --> 01:16:11,619
To get his hands on the mill.

1058
01:16:11,620 --> 01:16:13,620
(Squawking)

1059
01:16:19,660 --> 01:16:21,540

1062
01:16:30,101 --> 01:16:31,699
All right, lads.

1063
01:16:31,700 --> 01:16:34,179
Go do your bidding!

1064
01:16:34,180 --> 01:16:36,299

This is what we've been waiting for.

Old Smudgie's here.

1070
01:16:59,540 --> 01:17:00,900
Evening, Smudgepot.

1071
01:17:01,980 --> 01:17:03,699
Ha-ha!

1072
01:17:03,700 --> 01:17:05,620

Alice?

1078
01:17:41,540 --> 01:17:44,380
It's Will Green.
Don't be afraid.

1079
01:17:47,740 --> 01:17:49,660
I'm not going to hurt you.

1080
01:17:54,260 --> 01:17:56,140

1081
01:18:06,260 --> 01:18:08,140
Alice!

1082

Alice!

1084
01:18:15,540 --> 01:18:17,500
Go to hell!

1085
01:18:18,140 --> 01:18:20,580
JONES: As quickly as you can. We'll
be there soon.

1086
01:18:20,581 --> 01:18:22,480
Right.
Armed response on the way.

1087
01:18:22,481 --> 01:18:24,379
Uniform on their way
to the village, sir.

1088
01:18:24,380 --> 01:18:26,340
Good. Come on.

Samuel Quested...

1093
01:19:01,460 --> 01:19:03,260
you animal.

1094
01:19:13,980 --> 01:19:15,499
Oh, where are you going?

1095
01:19:15,500 --> 01:19:17,059
You think it's you I've come for?

1096
01:19:17,060 --> 01:19:19,139
(Cries out)
Quiet, woman!

1097
01:19:19,140 --> 01:19:21,339

All right, my duck?

1105
01:19:41,540 --> 01:19:43,300
Touch me and I'll kill you.

1106
01:19:43,940 --> 01:19:46,420
Thought you could turn your back
on your own people, huh?

1107

Come here!
No!

Come here!
Get off me!

01:20:40,100 --> 01:20:42,360
Samuel Quested, you're
under arrest for the

murders of Peter Slim
and Conrad Walker.

1123

You do not have to say anything
but it may harm your defence

1124
01:20:47,059 --> 01:20:48,800
if you fail to mention
when questioned

1125
01:20:48,801 --> 01:20:50,540
something which you
later rely on in court.

1126
01:20:50,541 --> 01:20:52,380
(Panting)

1127
01:21:00,220 --> 01:21:01,420
(Samuel strains)

1128
01:21:04,460 --> 01:21:08,140
Let me go! If you know what's good
for you, let me go!

1129
01:21:09,740 --> 01:21:12,779
Lads! Lads! Help me!

1130
01:21:12,780 --> 01:21:16,100
Come on! Help me! Come on!

1131
01:21:18,620 --> 01:21:20,940
Keep moving. Keep moving!

1132
01:21:33,580 --> 01:21:35,619
Stay back.
Let him be, copper.

1133
01:21:35,620 --> 01:21:37,460
Stay back.
I'm warning you.

1134
01:21:37,461 --> 01:21:41,780
And I'm warning you, stay back.
Aaargh!

1135
01:21:44,540 --> 01:21:46,899
No, you don't.
Aargh!

1136
01:21:46,900 --> 01:21:49,940
(Gunshot and commotion)

1137
01:21:52,980 --> 01:21:54,859
(Bullet clatters)

1138
01:21:54,860 --> 01:21:56,620
Gonna kill a copper now,
are you, boy?

1139
01:21:58,940 --> 01:22:01,180
You think
that's the right thing to do?

1140
01:22:02,460 --> 01:22:04,699
Murderer!

1141
01:22:04,700 --> 01:22:06,620
Quiet now, girl.
Leave her, Quested,

1142
01:22:06,621 --> 01:22:09,860
or I'll shoot you down
like the mad dog you are.

1143
01:22:12,740 --> 01:22:14,820
Go on, then, old man.

1144
01:22:15,380 --> 01:22:17,140
Have a bang.

1145
01:22:18,620 --> 01:22:20,620
(Shocked gasps)

1146
01:22:23,700 --> 01:22:25,620
Go on, Smudgie, finish him off.

1147
01:22:28,980 --> 01:22:32,259
We'll bury them deep
with a cow on their heads!

1148
01:22:32,260 --> 01:22:34,260
(Sirens wail)

1149
01:22:37,180 --> 01:22:40,140
You got anything to say
before I pop you, copper?

1150
01:22:53,260 --> 01:22:55,700
These are your people, Samuel.

1151
01:22:55,701 --> 01:22:58,140
Why don't you tell them
what this is really about?

1152
01:23:00,180 --> 01:23:02,840
Oh, this is about
land, all right, but

1153
01:23:02,841 --> 01:23:05,500
Samuel isn't telling you...
the whole story.

1154
01:23:07,100 --> 01:23:10,240
The truth is he has
blackmailed Anthony

1155
01:23:10,241 --> 01:23:13,379
Devereux into making
the mill over to him.

1156
01:23:13,380 --> 01:23:15,220
What?
(Murmuring)

1157
01:23:16,100 --> 01:23:18,500
You own most of this valley now,
don't you, Samuel?

1158
01:23:18,501 --> 01:23:19,899
(Laughs)

1159
01:23:19,900 --> 01:23:23,459
I own the pub and four acres.

1160
01:23:23,460 --> 01:23:26,899
That's a lie.
You be quiet now, girl.

1161
01:23:26,900 --> 01:23:31,579
The copper's telling the truth.
My father had me spy on the French.

1162
01:23:31,580 --> 01:23:34,579
Then he framed him up
and made him sign the land over.

1163
01:23:34,580 --> 01:23:37,420
You drunken old soak.
You're in the clear.

1164
01:23:38,700 --> 01:23:40,340
How can I thank you?

1165
01:23:41,620 --> 01:23:43,980
There is something
I wanted to ask you about, Anthony.

1166
01:23:45,500 --> 01:23:46,579
Anything!

1167
01:23:46,580 --> 01:23:49,580
I know the mill is running
at a loss.

1168
01:23:50,500 --> 01:23:54,540
I was thinking that maybe what you
were needing was, er... a partner?

1169
01:24:00,540 --> 01:24:04,099
Next harvest you'll be selling your
apples to my father.

1170
01:24:04,100 --> 01:24:06,299
(Cries of shock)

1171
01:24:06,300 --> 01:24:08,939
That's what this is about,
isn't it, Samuel?

1172
01:24:08,940 --> 01:24:11,139
Is this true?
No!

1173
01:24:11,140 --> 01:24:12,859
Come on, finish it, Smudgie.

1174
01:24:12,860 --> 01:24:15,699
On your knees, copper.
We don't want no more shootings here.

1175
01:24:15,700 --> 01:24:18,860
You're a thief and a murderer,
Samuel Quested.

1176
01:24:19,900 --> 01:24:22,020
You're nothing more
than a common criminal.

1177
01:24:24,020 --> 01:24:28,179
Your community has been stained
by two murders.

1178
01:24:28,180 --> 01:24:31,020
Are you going to let this man
add further to the score?

1179
01:24:35,180 --> 01:24:36,819
Give me the gun!

1180
01:24:36,820 --> 01:24:37,979
(Cocks rifle)

1181
01:24:37,980 --> 01:24:39,140
(Shocked gasps)

1182
01:24:40,860 --> 01:24:42,420
Give it to him, Smudgie.

1183
01:24:50,820 --> 01:24:52,780
(Screaming)

1184
01:25:04,980 --> 01:25:07,420
You haven't got a case against me,
copper.

1185
01:25:07,421 --> 01:25:11,660
The French left his fingerprints on the
murder weapon in the victim's blood.

1186
01:25:12,580 --> 01:25:14,440
You pressed the wading
staff into Devereux's

1187
01:25:14,441 --> 01:25:16,299
hand as he lay dead
drunk in your bar,

1188
01:25:16,300 --> 01:25:17,459
didn't you?

1189
01:25:17,460 --> 01:25:19,660
Got a witness?

1190
01:25:20,380 --> 01:25:22,299
I saw him do it.
(Shocked gasps)

1191
01:25:22,300 --> 01:25:24,499
You shut your mouth, girl.
I saw him!

1192
01:25:24,500 --> 01:25:25,700
Shut up!

1193
01:25:25,701 --> 01:25:28,820
And I heard him send Smudgepot
and Wilberforce to murder the vicar.

1194
01:25:29,980 --> 01:25:32,100
My father is a murderer!

1195
01:25:36,340 --> 01:25:39,340
You murdered Peter Slim with the
apple harvester, didn't you?

1196
01:25:42,220 --> 01:25:44,460
A fitting end for a revenue man...

1197
01:25:46,460 --> 01:25:48,420
to be given a little shake.

1198
01:25:49,660 --> 01:25:51,340
(Engine running)

1199
01:26:08,260 --> 01:26:09,700
(Laughs)

1200
01:26:11,180 --> 01:26:13,060
(Laughs)

1201
01:26:15,060 --> 01:26:19,500
And when Reverend Walker threatened
to talk, you murdered him too.

1202
01:26:21,900 --> 01:26:25,700
You got your ways, Vicar,
and we've got ours.

1203
01:26:37,580 --> 01:26:40,020
Who will rid me of this
troublesome priest?

1204
01:26:56,020 --> 01:26:58,220
In the name of Christ...

1205
01:26:58,980 --> 01:27:00,420
stop!

1206
01:27:03,260 --> 01:27:05,500
He never did understand us.
(Police siren)

1207
01:27:11,180 --> 01:27:12,700
Come on, Smudgie.
Aargh!

1208
01:27:21,780 --> 01:27:23,939
Take him, take him.

1209
01:27:23,940 --> 01:27:25,820
You two, him.

1210
01:27:37,660 --> 01:27:39,420
You're an evil man, Quested.

1211
01:27:40,860 --> 01:27:44,140
You won't be seeing this valley again
for a very long time.

1212
01:27:44,460 --> 01:27:45,779
(Scoffs)

1213
01:27:45,780 --> 01:27:49,140
Even in prison, I'll still be
Master of the Stag.

1214
01:27:50,140 --> 01:27:52,780
The village, they won't forget me.

1215
01:27:57,540 --> 01:27:59,700
I wouldn't be so sure.

1216
01:28:10,300 --> 01:28:11,620
Take him away.

1217
01:29:00,260 --> 01:29:02,339
