1
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,839
I'm sensing a passing-over
in tragic circumstances.

2
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,599
Can you accept this?

3
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:26,240
Yes, my... I'm getting a connection, but
it's not by blood. Will you accept this?

4
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,679
Yes, it could be my wife.

5
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,120
Just a minute.

6
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,840
Who are you
please? ..Is it Mary?

7
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,960
Is your name Mary?

8
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,719
No, it's not Mary.

9
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,999
It's a girl. A girl?

10
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,200
The girl's...

11
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,039
..A young woman.

12
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,759
She's standing behind you.

13
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,759
16 or 17.

14
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,159
Carla? ..Carol?

15
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,680
Carolyn? Carina?

16
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,560
Stoll?

17
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:17,960
These might not make much sense now,
but they might do later. Note them down.

18
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,759
I don't know
anyone of that name.

19
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,800
Forget her. Concentrate on
Mary. I told you, it's not Mary.

20
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:35,960
She's telling me she was very thin by the end. Like
a skeleton. Who is she? What does she want with me?

21
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,879
She wants me to tell you that
she passed before her time, and...

22
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,599
Yeah.

23
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,279
Yeah, I know. I know, love.

24
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,320
..And that she's so very sorry.

25
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,800
Sorry for what?

26
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,839
She's saying to me...

27
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,200
"For everything."

28
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,239

00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,999
A 17-year-old-girl from a
well-to-do-family disappears.

37
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,679
Three months later, she's emaciated and dead in a
transport container. No suspects, no motives, nothing.

38
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,719
Can you imagine starving
to death in one of these,

39
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,359
your cries unheard, your
pummelling on the doors ignored?

40
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,079
Jack, how much sleep have
you had? Never mind sleep.

41
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,599
Did you read the case notes?
Yes, I did. And? Interesting?

42
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,639
Yes. Enough for the unit to
investigate? Where did you get this?

43
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:34,199
That's not important. The
important thing... yes, it is.

44
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,679
If we're going to run
with it, I need to know.

45
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,720
You wouldn't believe me. Try me.

46
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,359
I went to see a
clairvoyant. What?

47
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,840
I was hoping to contact Mary.

48
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,519
And this young fella started
to talk to someone. A girl.

49
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,759
She gave him a list of names
and he told me to write them down.

50
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,920
I tried putting it out of my mind,
but curiosity got the better of me.

51
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,079
I went into the office after-hours, typed
the names into the unsolved crimes database.

52
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,680
Time after time, the computer said
there was no match for the names.

53
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,560
Then I asked it to tell me the
nearest match to each name.

54
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,399
And every single time,

55
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,760
it came up the same.

56
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,159
Caroline Stillman?

57
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,039
I type in Caroline Stillman

58
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,080
and here we are.

59
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,000
There, that should do it.

60
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,159
Aw, bloody hell! It's
brass monkeys in here.

61
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,239
I've called maintenance. They say they're
looking into it. No, I'm looking into it, clarky.

62
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,799
All they're doing is looking into
looking into it! Is this a new case?

63
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,959
Memo from human resources.
Come on, Brian, it can be done!

64
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,999
Here, here! Listen to this...

65
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,519
"All the constituents of
ucos over the age of 50

66
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:16,199
"are requested to undergo routine
physical and psychological evaluation

67
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:23,799
"on the 15th of the month to ensure capability to
operate within the parameters of their defining role."

68
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,239
They're taking
the piss. Not yet,

69
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,479
but they certainly will be!

70
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,920
300ml minimum.

71
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:35,199
Cor, blimey!

72
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:41,319
How else do we find our cases? A scrap of evidence
comes to light, someone steps out of the shadows.

73
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,479
It's all the past somehow
drawing attention to an injustice.

74
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:50,599
"Somehow"?! You were given this case by a clairvoyant.
Christ, what do I say to Brian and Gerry?!

75
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,119
"Good morning, Brian,
Gerry. Here's the next case."

76
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,919
You said it was interesting. We
have the girl's clothes to test for DNA.

77
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,959
Why don't we just start
and see where it leads?

78
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:08,759
Caroline Stillman, 17-year-old daughter of a
family of jewellers with premises in hatton garden.

79
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,519
She disappeared
in February 1982.

80
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:16,559
The first idea was that she'd just run away, and
then they thought she may have been kidnapped.

81
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,759
What do these blacked-out passages in the case
notes indicate? Yeah, we'll be working on that.

82
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:27,959
Done after the event by someone who didn't want aspects
of the case to come to light. Could be classified.

83
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:35,039
Unless somebody wanted to protect a source... Though
you'd only have to black out the source's name.

84
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,199
This is far more extensive.

85
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:42,679
When, after two weeks, no ransom demand was received,
the original team decided it was an abduction.

86
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:48,519
Despite appeals, the police received nothing. The
body was found three months later in a shipping yard,

87
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,520
locked in a container. Talk about reopening
a case with one hand tied behind your back!

88
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,959
Why are we reopening
the case, anyway? Jack?

89
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,719
..Division was having an, er,
archive review and this cropped up.

90
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,039
They felt the girl's clothes
could be tested for DNA.

91
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,840
DNA will be our biggest
lead. Questions? Yeah.

92
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,439
This evaluation on the
15th... Is completely routine.

93
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,919
There's nothing routine about it.
"All constituents of ucos over 50."

94
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:26,919
Someone thinks we're surplus to requirements!
I meant any other questions for this case!

95
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:32,279
..No? Ok, Brian, Jack, go
and see Caroline's sister.

96
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:38,720
Gerry, you track down members of the original team
still... please don't say "alive". It's so depressing!

97
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,240
Still around.

98
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,199
She's not exactly champing
at the bit to come and say hello.

99
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,119
I expect she's got her reasons.

100
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,159
'Ey up! Visors down,
truncheons at the ready.

101
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,680
Leave her to me.

102
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:12,119
Miss Stillman. I'm sorry but you've come to discuss a
chapter of my life which I have no desire to reopen.

103
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:17,239
Even if it means discovering who killed your
sister? Will it bring her back? No, but...

104
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:22,839
Or my father, cut down with a stroke two years
after Caroline was found? Look... or my mother,

105
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,999
who passed away last year,
heartbroken for two decades?

106
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:32,519
The last thing we want to do is to upset you in any
way. You should have thought before barging in here.

107
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,559
Miss Stillman, I know what it's like to
lose someone in violent circumstances

108
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:41,320
but, no matter how painful,
we have a duty to the truth.

109
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,359
I'm sorry?!

110
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,039
How dare you appear from
nowhere and proceed to lecture me?!

111
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,599
No-one's lecturing
you, miss Stillman.

112
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,919
My life has moved on.

113
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,480
Please, don't come here again.

114
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,360
I said leave her to me!

115
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,639
You're the maintenance
man, aren't you?

116
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,479
Yes. Well, some promise of
maintenance, however slight,

117
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,920
is a minimum requirement of your
job, wouldn't you say? Well, done, clarky!

118
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,800
Everything ok, Gerry? Yeah, yeah.
I'm just thinking. Always encouraging!

119
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:28,239
I've got a daughter the same age
as Caroline was when she died,

120
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,679
and I can't imagine what I'd be
like if anything happened to her.

121
00:09:32,680 --> 00:09:36,119
You see, with kids - or grandchildren!
-

122
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:40,160
you welcome them into
the world as best you can...

123
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:47,120
..Then all you can do is cross your fingers and
hope that they get a lucky ticket on their way in.

124
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,999
Yeah.

125
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,440
Catch you later.

126
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,800
Yeah.

127
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,840
Yeah.

128
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,039
You know there's no
guarantees I'll make contact?

129
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,679
I don't control who
comes through.

130
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:16,039
Some clients can become angry
when they don't get what they want.

131
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,439
It's unfortunate, but why I've had to
adopt a policy of payment in advance.

132
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,799
50?

133
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,199
You're paying for my time,
but my gift, such as it is,

134
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,240
is free of charge.

135
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,159
Well, I appreciate your honesty,
so let me be straight with you.

136
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,839
My sister died 20 years
ago in horrible circumstances.

137
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,479
Ok, but don't feel
obliged to give me a name.

138
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,599
No, I want to make
it easier for you.

139
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,439
Her name was Caroline.

140
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,359
Caroline Stillman.

141
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,040
All right.

142
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,200
Well, let's see who's about.

143
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,240
Do I have to close my eyes? No.

144
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,599
Odd. What?

145
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,640
I'm not getting anything.

146
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,519
She was abducted

147
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,119
and left to die
in a horrible way.

148
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:35,560
And the person who did it was
never caught. Please help me.

149
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,280
Sometimes the
channel gets blocked.

150
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:48,240
I'm sorry. Call me if
you want to try again.

151
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,440
Just let yourself out
when you're ready.

152
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,279
Thank you. Cheers.

153
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:35,799
So, this physical and psychological evaluation
my boys are undertaking the day after tomorrow?

154
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,519
Yes, what about it?

155
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:45,040
They suspect it might be someone trying to rip the
guts out of ucos, perhaps close it down completely.

156
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,639
Your clear-up rate is
embarrassing some people, Sandra.

157
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:55,199
Your success now questions
their competence then.

158
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,279
You've only got to review some
of the cases you've cracked.

159
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:04,559
You've put special branch's nose out of joint
by revealing they had a mole inside new labour.

160
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:09,479
You've exposed police racism and
nearly destroyed a leading golf club,

161
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,720
ruining the reputation of a
war hero into the bargain.

162
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,159
Some establishment toes are
feeling distinctly stepped upon.

163
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,599
Not my problem.

164
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,599
You never were very
good at the politics, Sandra.

165
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:31,320
..With all due respect, sir, that's like criticising
someone for not being a very good arsehole.

166
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,559
These tests are
entirely routine.

167
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:44,199
What I want you to focus on is that, while the
success of ucos has caused concern in some quarters,

168
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:48,879
for you, personally, it's
done no harm in others.

169
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:54,600
Sir? The concensus is that you should be
back in the premiership, where you belong.

170
00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:01,000
They want you in
undercover operations. So10.

171
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,359
Mary, have you any idea

172
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,399
how frustrating it is, having these
endless conversations with myself?

173
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:20,280
Would it be too much to ask for you to give me some
tiny little sign to say that you'd actually heard me?

174
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,439
A light bulb flickering
when I look at your photo.

175
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,879
A rap on your side of the kitchen
table when I sit down to eat.

176
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,840
Not like I'm asking for
ornaments flying across the room!

177
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:40,160
I just cannot understand how someone
I've never met contacts me, and you can't!

178
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,999
If you could find something, some thing,
that only I would know came from you,

179
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,039
or some hint of a name of
whoever it was did this thing to us,

180
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,280
I could work it out. I
am, after all, a detective.

181
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,840
Was.

182
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:54,119
That looks interesting. Forensics managed to recover
the blacked-out material from the case notes.

183
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,239
Let me warm up first. Tell you
what would help - nice cuppa.

184
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,679
Think of it as a one-off, a
favour to an ageing colleague

185
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,839
whose old arthritic bones,
dilapidated constitution...

186
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,679
All right, sir. A
one-off cup of tea.

187
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,320
Thank you.

188
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,639
..Oh, and a biscuit.
Anything chocolate.

189
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,480
Yes, sir.

190
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:35,319
Jack. Morning. I checked out your clairvoyant
chappie yesterday, Christopher Wells.

191
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:41,359
And? I posed as Caroline's sister to see if he'd
give any sign that he knew anything about her.

192
00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:44,879
Not a flicker. Even
gave me my money back.

193
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,959
I gather it didn't go too well with the sister,
though. She's put it all behind her, moved on.

194
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:55,999
Maybe it's the best way to go. Best for who? The
only chocolate biscuits I could find were bourbons.

195
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:02,359
Hang on! I thought we had an understanding, not
using clarky as a tea boy. It's just a one-off.

196
00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:06,119
Make it a two-off, would
you? Make it a three-off.

197
00:18:06,120 --> 00:18:10,640
Whoa, chocolate biscuits!
Here, get us a cup of tea, son.

198
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,519
It's freezing in here.

199
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,359
So, Sarah Stillman
doesn't want... Banging

200
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:21,200
do you mind?! Sorry.

201
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:27,039
Sarah Stillman doesn't want to
co-operate. Well, that's her prerogative.

202
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,079
I think we have to respect that
for the time being. Anyway, clarky?

203
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,599
In the early '80s, case reports
were still typed up on typewriters,

204
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,639
with each key leaving a
physical imprint on the paper.

205
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:43,319
When these passages were blacked
out, you couldn't read the printed words.

206
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,799
But modern scanning techniques
can read the pressure indents

207
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,239
and have recreated the text.

208
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,359
So what was blacked out?

209
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:56,719
All reference to the involvement in
the investigation of a young medium.

210
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,879
..You're kidding. He now operates an Internet
clairvoyance business from his home in Hertfordshire.

211
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:07,039
Log on, download tarot readings. Horoscope texts
sent directly to your mobile. That sort of thing.

212
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:12,919
Why was he involved in the investigation? You
know what happens when children go missing.

213
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,959
Weirdy beardies come out of the
woodwork and clog up everything.

214
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:22,079
The team dismissed all the oddballs who came
forward, except for lombard why not him?

215
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,959
He volunteered information about
her he couldn't possibly have known.

216
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,039
A birthmark on her
scalp, beyond the hairline.

217
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,159
So, he might have
seen it sometime before.

218
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,959
Or during the abduction itself.

219
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,639
Or he could have got the information
through genuine clairvoyance.

220
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,480
There's no such thing.

221
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,679
Lombard naturally
fell under suspicion

222
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,799
but he maintained he'd received the information as
mr halford suggested. No-one could prove otherwise.

223
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,439
You said he was young at
the time. How young? ..22.

224
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,759
Ok. So while we wait for the
DNA results on Caroline's clothes,

225
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,360
why don't you two
visit mr lombard?

226
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,919
Nice to see somebody's making money
out of the web! Maybe he's earned it.

227
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:21,439
You don't seriously entertain the possibility
that this lombard's genuinely psychic, do you?

228
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,040
Who knows
everything, Brian? You?

229
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,839
A copy of the original death mask
of the great Russian writer turgenev.

230
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:47,159
Look at the Serenity with which he faced
eternity. It's possibly my favourite piece.

231
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:52,959
Martin lombard. Ex-detective inspector
Brian Lane, and this is my colleague.

232
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,119
Ex-detective chief
superintendent Jack halford.

233
00:20:56,120 --> 00:20:59,239
Ex? Post-retirement.

234
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:04,039
We were drafted back to a special
unit investigating unsolved cases.

235
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,199
Must have taken some
squaring with your wife. My wife?

236
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:14,800
Now that she thinks she's got you to herself and has
a list of all those odd jobs, off you go back to work!

237
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,079
She's no longer with us.

238
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,759
My condolences. I'm sorry, I
didn't mean to intrude. You haven't.

239
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,439
I see a great deal of anger at
her passing, much of it unresolved.

240
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:38,279
This is all very interesting, but we didn't drive out
here to discuss my colleague's personal situation.

241
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:44,039
Of course not, my apologies. So, you have an
unsolved crime that you'd like me to help you with.

242
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:50,160
How did you find me? Stumble across my website? We
found you on the file of the Caroline Stillman case.

243
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,679
Caroline Stillman.

244
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,720
Opera music in background
let me turn this off.

245
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,839
This is a fabulous house, mr
lombard. All through clairvoyance?

246
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:10,559
Yes, well, most people need to
be in touch with their spiritual side

247
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,919
and I step into the void once filled
by religion, help them express that.

248
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,559
At a nominal cost, of course.

249
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,879
If you need to speak to
your dead, I too have to live.

250
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,719
Can I ask you why
you've reopened this case?

251
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,919
We're not at Liberty to say.

252
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,199
You gained credibility with
the original investigation

253
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,319
by claiming to know about a
birthmark on Caroline's head.

254
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,759
Yes. Yes, well, I felt
the need to come forward

255
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:46,199
as I had information which I thought
might lead to Caroline being found.

256
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,679
Mentioning the birthmark
seemed to give me credibility.

257
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,119
Can I ask you how you came
by that information, mr lombard?

258
00:22:54,120 --> 00:23:01,240
As I said to the detectives at the time, how
else but by clairvoyance? How else, indeed?

259
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,959
He's our man, Jack. Fraudulence
rises off him like fumes.

260
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,439
How come he knew about Mary?
The unresolved nature of her death?

261
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,679
Because he read you like a book!

262
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,959
Didn't you see how fast his eyes
hoovered up all the evidence?

263
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:23,839
Your wedding ring, your body language, the looks
between us. To the trained eye, it was a road map!

264
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:29,199
Tell me, Brian, why are you so threatened by
even the possibility that he can do as he claims?

265
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:35,279
He knew about Caroline's birthmark because he somehow
saw it or heard about it. And how do I know this?

266
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,959
The same way that I know
Santa claus was my dad in a suit,

267
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,679
and the tooth fairy my
mother in her dressing gown.

268
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:48,920
If there's DNA on Caroline's clothes that isn't
hers, I know exactly where I'm putting my money.

269
00:23:54,600 --> 00:24:01,039
Thank you for responding so swiftly to our enquiry,
sir. I was intrigued to receive your e-mail.

270
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:07,799
May I ask, in the case notes, why were all the...
references to Martin lombard crossed out? Yes.

271
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:14,719
Because I crossed them out. Allowing a clairvoyant
to be involved was something I was never happy with.

272
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:20,559
My guvnor at the time, may he rest in peace, was a
religious man who believed lombard could help us.

273
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:25,759
You didn't? And if you look at his
contribution, you'll see I was proved right.

274
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,799
The longer the case went on, the
more convinced most of us became

275
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,959
that Martin lombard was
involved in Caroline's abduction.

276
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:39,719
By the time we voiced that, my boss had allowed
him too much access to the investigation.

277
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,279
We couldn't have proved a thing.

278
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:47,719
I couldn't remove myself from the record of
what I thought was a catastrophic cock-up,

279
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,879
but I could remove lombard.

280
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,919
Of course, all this was before
DNA technique had evolved.

281
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,599
Caroline's clothes are
with forensics as we speak.

282
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,359
Rest assured, Bob,

283
00:25:00,360 --> 00:25:06,080
detective superintendent Pullman is not in
the business of embarrassing senior officers.

284
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,519
I hear you're being
linked to the so10 job.

285
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,719
An officer at that level would
be expected to demonstrate

286
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,479
a firm grasp of the politics
involved in such a senior position.

287
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:26,199
So10 is a different world to ucos. All the villains
are still out there, just waiting to be caught.

288
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,639
Including Martin
lombard, if you're right.

289
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:37,319
If we couldn't break him back then with a crack squad,
I fail to see how you will now, with dad's army!

290
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:42,119
We're setting great store on the
DNA results. Of course you are.

291
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:48,439
Now, you'll have to excuse me, I'm afraid. My
car's downstairs. Lunch with the home secretary.

292
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,119
It's a pain but it's
got to be done.

293
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:54,559
It's a pleasure to meet the
woman behind the name.

294
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:59,559
I look forward to following the resurrection
of your career with great interest.

295
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,240
Thank you, Don.

296
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,799
Where did you find this case?

297
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,359
Well... wherever it was, I
suggest you put it straight back!

298
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:14,399
I've worked bloody hard to get you a
chance to put ucos behind you and move on.

299
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,240
For both our sakes,
don't screw it up.

300
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,439
You are kidding me! Just
came in, ten minutes ago.

301
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,999
Nothing! It's why the lab
took so long to get back to us.

302
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,359
They checked
everything twice. Shit!

303
00:26:31,360 --> 00:26:36,719
What a bloody cock-up! So, we've opened a
case to get no further than the original team!

304
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,759
It's like one of them pointless
remakes of an old classic.

305
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:45,399
Doesn't exactly help to be warned off
by the assistant deputy commissioner.

306
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:51,640
All right, let's have a show of hands. Based on what
we know so far, who believes lombard is our man?

307
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,799
I'm not saying he isn't, but if
he is, why isn't his DNA there?

308
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,559
No evidence, no support from
the family. What are we going to do?

309
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,279
I know what I'm going
to do - get a round in.

310
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,319
Should you be drinking so much,
with your evaluation tomorrow?

311
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,159
Bugger the evaluation!
Yeah, sideways. Same again?

312
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,679
Cheers. Sparkling. If you're convinced this
is someone trying to close down the unit,

313
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,959
not taking it seriously is the
best way of doing it for them

314
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,999
you said the tests
were routine. They are.

315
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,359
If the evaluation isn't
about closing the unit,

316
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:33,959
how can not taking them
seriously be doing it for them?

317
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,679
Listen to yourselves!
These are routine tests.

318
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,879
There is no conspiracy!

319
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,079
..Well, I'm going home.
See you tomorrow.

320
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:48,720
Just do your best, that's all
anyone expects. Good luck! ..Night.

321
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,239
Dodgy case. Doctored evidence.

322
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,759
Quiet words from on high.

323
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,999
Surprise evaluations.

324
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:03,519
Broken air conditioning, making
the office an impossible place to work!

325
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,159
If this isn't a conspiracy
to close us once and for all,

326
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:13,800
jfk was killed in the conservatory by colonel
mustard with a length of bloody lead pipe!

327
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:21,479
Now, when you said you
were going to do dinner,

328
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,359
I didn't realise you were
just going to order pizzas.

329
00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:31,719
Anyone can order pizza. Choosing the right
pizza, now, that takes a lot of thought. Mm.

330
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:36,199
Anchovies with ham, pineapple,
spicy chicken, tuna, mushrooms.

331
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:42,039
Anyone less generous than me would say that you
hadn't got a clue what I liked and panicked.

332
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:48,239
Yeah, and someone more generous might say I just
wanted to give you everything I possibly could.

333
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,600
It's amazing how you say
the things I want to hear.

334
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,720
Do you want me to say that
you should take this so10 job?

335
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:06,439
Well, it would put me back
on track, career wise. True.

336
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:12,599
And the time that I'm spending with the not-so-golden
oldies is becoming increasingly bizarre.

337
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:18,919
Also true. I mean, Christ, Greg, I'm working on
a case that Jack brought us from a clairvoyant.

338
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,360
And against the express
wishes of a senior officer.

339
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,639
If I continue, it's tantamount
to professional suicide.

340
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,679
If I don't, Caroline's
murderer could walk free.

341
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,840
So what happens
if you give up ucos?

342
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:43,279
I suppose the new job would inevitably
put me under a lot more pressure

343
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,240
and take up more of my time.
Not to mention taking over your life.

344
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,719
What are you saying?

345
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:59,599
I'm just saying what we both know - every inch up
the slippery pole comes with a price. Ask yourself,

346
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,319
is it a price you
still want to pay?

347
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:07,839
Do you want coffee? Will you make
it yourself or nip round to Starbucks?

348
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:12,880
Thought I'd have a stab. Blimey, I'm
impressed! You haven't tasted it yet.

349
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:34,519
Is that it? I don't want to confuse them into
thinking Carl Lewis has just walked into the room.

350
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:41,199
Taking the piss out of it isn't going to make it
go away! At least I'll retain a modicum of dignity.

351
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:46,640
I wish you'd stop doing that, you're making me
seasick. Where's Gerry? Haven't the faintest idea.

352
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,039
What's yours? Beta blockers.

353
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,480
Amphetamines. Down the hatch.

354
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:08,599
Look at you, first
male child in the family!

355
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,120
He's absolutely gorgeous.
He's got your ears.

356
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,839
Do you think so? Don't
they go well together?

357
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,119
He's not a clutch bag. You
know what I mean. Can I?

358
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,559
So what are you gonna call him?

359
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,319
Hello, mate. Hello.

360
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:29,520
You know, when Paula first
told me she was pregnant, I was...

361
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:35,359
Well, I was a bit negative
about it, really, wasn't I, love?

362
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,839
I've seen a lot of bad things
happening to nice people and...

363
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,160
I suppose it just taints the way
you look at the world, but blimey...

364
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,679
..Holding this
beautiful bloke...

365
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,799
And all of you around...

366
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,759
Suddenly I can only think of
the best things in the world.

367
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,959
Whatever you call him
is gonna be spot on.

368
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,599
Thanks, dad. Can I
have Gerry back now?

369
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,719
Yeah, all right. There you
go... What did you just say?

370
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,560
You heard. Oh!

371
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,639
Gerry! Little Gerry.

372
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,640
Gerry. Come on, you blues.

373
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,999
Hi.

374
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,039
Physical this morning,
psychometric this afternoon.

375
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,119
But just for now - urine?

376
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,560
I'd prefer tea, if
you've got it. No sugar.

377
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,680
Right, gentlemen,
treadmill or rowing machine.

378
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,279
That's good. Keep it steady.

379
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,479
I can go faster. No,
this speed is fine.

380
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,479
No, let me go faster. No,
don't overdo it. No, I'm fine.

381
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:07,079
Great. I feel fantastic. Put
that down on your clipboard.

382
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:13,400
He says he feels fantastic while rowing
faster than a man half his age. Hey-hey!

383
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,000
One.

384
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,479
Bloody hell!

385
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,519
Groaning

386
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,559
um, should mr halford be
making that noise? Oh, he's fine.

387
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:03,479
His body's just in a state of shock. The most
exercise he gets is bending over to tie his shoelace.

388
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:08,039
Singing more.

389
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:14,159
♪ O, Gerry boy, o, Gerry
boy, I love you so... ♪

390
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,159
it's a boy!

391
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,959
7lb 4½oz of solid grandson!

392
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,679
And she's naming it after me!

393
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:28,039
Congratulations, mate. Fantastic.
Congratulations, sir. Clarky.

394
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,239
How was the test?

395
00:34:31,240 --> 00:34:36,919
He was a little taken by surprise by the
rowing machine. Not to mention the treadmill.

396
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,799
Listen, I hope they've got a
machine for measuring walking on air!

397
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,799
There you go, mate.

398
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:46,800
Clarky... Jacky.

399
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:57,759
A psychometric questionnaire is a series of multiple
choice questions to which there's no correct answer.

400
00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:03,799
As such. I'm sorry? Well, there's no
correct answer to any individual question,

401
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:09,279
but a whole series of answers
reveals personality and attitude,

402
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:13,839
which may or may not be what
the force requires of its personnel.

403
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,720
One hour. No conferring.

404
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:32,159
' "Question 1. You come across £100 in the street.
Do you hand it in to your local police station,

405
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:38,279
' "leave a note nearby with your name
and number, pocket the money and spend it,

406
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:43,359
' "or use the money to buy a gun
and use that to hold up a petrol station

407
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:48,119
' "for 100 times the sum you've
found?" Interesting ethical dilemma.

408
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:53,399
'The obvious answer isn't necessarily
the answer you want to give.

409
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,999
'The best strategy is to work
out the answer they're looking for,

410
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,440
'and put that. So... Let's take
this nice and methodically.'

411
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:12,000
' "you come across £100 in the street, do
you...?" Jesus! Sod this for a game of soldiers.

412
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:17,239
'A. B. C. D. D. C. B. A.

413
00:36:17,240 --> 00:36:20,919
'D. C. B. A. A. B. C. D...'

414
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,359
'where does all the time go, eh?

415
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:29,639
'One minute, you're in loon pants, the next,
you're some perfect little person's grandad.

416
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,519
'Grandpa Gerry.

417
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:37,639
'Well, who'd have thought
you'd ever make it this far, eh?'

418
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,960
finished! Blimey.
See you down the pub.

419
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,879
I thought I made myself clear to
your colleagues. You did, miss Stillman.

420
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:53,479
The thing is, I do need to talk
to you about your sister's case.

421
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,319
Why? Has someone come
forward? In a manner of speaking, yes.

422
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,439
What did you know
about the investigation?

423
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,879
The house was full of police. If
something happened, we knew about it.

424
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:09,039
Were you aware of the
involvement of a psychic? A what?

425
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:16,279
Martin lombard inveigled his way into the police
investigation, and later became a suspect.

426
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,680
Are you serious?
Yeah, unfortunately.

427
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:25,239
But that... why weren't we told?

428
00:37:25,240 --> 00:37:29,280
There were some people who
didn't want you to know about it.

429
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,319
Oh, my god, they
asked me at the time.

430
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:39,159
The police asked me if I knew of any
odd people Caroline hung around with.

431
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,759
It never occurred
to me to say...

432
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,040
Say what?

433
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:52,239
Well, she was into everything a
typically confused teenage girl was into.

434
00:37:52,240 --> 00:37:56,199
Weird bands I'd never heard
of. Every religion on the planet.

435
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,199
And the paranormal.

436
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,519
Paranormal?

437
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:08,159
Esp, clairvoyancy, one of her friends
had a ouija board, everything goth.

438
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,399
And she went to
psychic fairs all the time.

439
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,240
And you didn't mention this?

440
00:38:16,240 --> 00:38:20,160
I thought the police
meant her close friends.

441
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,479
I spent a long time going
through the police notes...

442
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:29,199
And it seems to me that your
family was quite a battleground.

443
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:35,080
Maybe you held back about the psychic fairs
because you didn't want your sister found.

444
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,319
Now, listen to
me very carefully.

445
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:46,119
My sister was not the
daughter my parents wanted.

446
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:52,519
I fitted the mould perfectly. They tried hammering
her into the same one, but it was never going to work.

447
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:57,640
She was always too much of her
own person, and they never backed off.

448
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:03,199
You're right, it was a
battleground. Absolutely.

449
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:09,440
And there were nights when I thought of putting a pillow
over Caroline's head, just for some peace and quiet.

450
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,680
But when she went missing...

451
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,959
Well...

452
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,959
I have to live with that.

453
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:27,719
So, if Sarah had known about
a psychic helping the police,

454
00:39:27,720 --> 00:39:33,159
you reckon she'd have spoken
out? That's the impression I got, yeah.

455
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:37,639
She was in quite a state when
I left. So what are we saying?

456
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:44,599
Caroline gets pally with lombard at one of the psychic
fairs, he singles her out and nabs her. For what?

457
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:49,039
She was 17. He was in his early
20s. Wouldn't the obvious cover it?

458
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:55,799
Yeah, but the postmortem said that, although Caroline
wasn't a virgin, there was no evidence of rape

459
00:39:55,800 --> 00:40:01,479
or sexual abuse. So he was saving her
for later. Got spooked. Left her for dead.

460
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:06,959
Then he offers to help them find
her but that's not unusual, is it? No.

461
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:14,279
There's no physical evidence linking lombard and
Stillman, so we're still no closer to nailing him.

462
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:18,719
You've been a bit quiet
tonight, Jack. Any thoughts?

463
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:24,920
I don't know what I think any more. Jack? I
should never have got you involved. I'm sorry.

464
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:30,400
What does he mean, he should
never have got us involved?

465
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:39,159
Um, Jack went to see a clairvoyant about
Mary. Only he didn't get Mary, he got...

466
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,839
You are bloody
joking. ..Oh, bloody hell.

467
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:49,559
I think that we all need to decide how
we're going to respond to this, as a unit.

468
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,799
I really don't like
this. Yeah, I know.

469
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,479
I like the idea of lombard walking
away a second time even less.

470
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:01,920
I think we should nail
him. Question is, how?

471
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:23,279
It's only fair to let you know
that, as far as we're concerned,

472
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,439
the jury's out on
genuine psychic ability.

473
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:32,319
For a number of reasons,
including having met the man,

474
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:38,519
we think it's pretty safe to assume that lombard's
a con artist. You see, our theory is that,

475
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:45,879
having snatched the girl, his plan was to come
forward later and claim the glory for finding her.

476
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:51,759
His way of spectacularly launching himself.
Big story on the telly, newspapers,

477
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:58,879
corner the market in talking to the dead. But without
evidence, we have to go for a full confession.

478
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,479
We need a point of entry
into his way of thinking.

479
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:07,839
Hence, you. Set a thief to
catch a thief. In a nutshell.

480
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,759
Wrong answer. Thanks
for the tea. Christopher...

481
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:18,759
If you can't respect what I do, find some other
mug to help you. This isn't about what you can do.

482
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:23,560
It's about what Martin
lombard has done. Please.

483
00:42:25,720 --> 00:42:32,919
In the first few days of the investigation, he
hits an immediate bull's-eye with the birthmark.

484
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:39,439
But this establishes a quality of information
he never replicates. It all becomes very vague.

485
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:46,239
"It's pitch black." "A door that only opens
from the outside." And here, "I hear water."

486
00:42:46,240 --> 00:42:52,680
The information's next to useless. And
then he seems to drop out completely.

487
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:59,119
You're looking confused.
He was born like that. Go on.

488
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:05,959
Well, I agree that he's a fake, but the fakes
usually keep fishing until they get lucky.

489
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:10,839
It seems lombard lost his appetite
for this before he struck anything.

490
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,919
That fits. Lombard's a
greedy con merchant.

491
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,559
Finds himself in the middle
of an abduction enquiry,

492
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:23,959
gets a whiff he's under suspicion, starts to
panic, clams up, drops out before it's too late.

493
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,959
As you say, he lost his
appetite. Or his nerve.

494
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:33,120
Well, I think we just found
our way in. Thanks, Chris.

495
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,799
Jack... Clarky.

496
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:52,280
Something came in the post for you this morning,
mr standing. I left it on your desk. Thanks.

497
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,639
Oh!

498
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,279
Oh, you little
beauty. Marvellous.

499
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,920
Here, clarky, come
and have a look at this.

500
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,439
Isn't he gorgeous?
Very. Look at him.

501
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:21,439
But should the met's photographic lab
really be used to run off private prints?

502
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:26,360
They've been doing my holiday
snaps for 20 years... Here, Jack...

503
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,920
Jack?

504
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,879
Clarky, take a walk,
mate. But I was...

505
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,439
No. Go.

506
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,040
Right.

507
00:44:56,080 --> 00:45:03,199
You sent Mary's clothes for forensic analysis?
Christ almighty, Jack, that's instant dismissal!

508
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:10,119
They've been at the back of the wardrobe for
years. I know she'll never come back, Gerry.

509
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:15,119
I saw her put into the ground.
But that funeral isn't the end.

510
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,719
Not while that
bastard's still out there!

511
00:45:18,720 --> 00:45:24,639
Nothing. You didn't really expect
them to find anything, did you?

512
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:31,879
I just thought he might have got out of his car to see
what he'd done... Dropped something on her clothing.

513
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,879
A hair, a fleck of skin...

514
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,319
Something!

515
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,480
Anything!

516
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,120
I'll get you a cup of tea, mate.

517
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:40,159
I was on my way to your house, then it
occurred to me you might not want to be there.

518
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:45,199
Knowing how people's minds work is what makes
a good detective. I'm not accepting this, Jack.

519
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,399
You don't have any
choice. You need ucos.

520
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:52,319
Without it, there's just
countdown and Richard and Judy.

521
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:58,279
Gerry needs the money and, as for Brian, Esther
would have him propping up the patio within a week.

522
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:04,239
Even if the evaluation is purely
routine, I'm finished, Sandra.

523
00:47:04,240 --> 00:47:10,719
We're going for a confession from Martin lombard.
In your prime, you were the best in the business.

524
00:47:10,720 --> 00:47:14,599
There's not the
forensic to back it up.

525
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:19,039
And my prime was
a long, long time ago.

526
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,159
I'm sorry.

527
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,199
You might not get
justice for Mary, Jack.

528
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:28,720
But there's an outside chance
you could for Caroline Stillman.

529
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,800
My rules.

530
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:41,159
After the evaluation, I'm
probably finished anyway.

531
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:44,239
If anyone gets wind of
your involvement in this...

532
00:47:44,240 --> 00:47:49,960
I'm a big girl now, I make my own
choices. But thanks for your concern.

533
00:47:54,400 --> 00:48:00,679
Ah, ex-detective halford, what a pleasant surprise.
And you've brought a new colleague to meet me.

534
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,599
So, tell me, are you an
ex-police person or a real one?

535
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,839
Oh, very real.

536
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:12,159
And how can I help you? It's rather
embarrassing. We need your help.

537
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:18,319
Right, what sort of help? We think we're
very close to cracking the Stillman case

538
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:22,480
and we feel your special talent
will give us the final push we need.

539
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,359
They just pulled in. Over.

540
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,879
This isn't the police station.
We brought you the scenic route.

541
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:47,119
Did they show you the pictures of
Caroline's body when they found it?

542
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,279
No. I, personally,
wept, mr lombard.

543
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:56,120
Left to starve in a metal freight
container in the middle of winter.

544
00:48:56,200 --> 00:49:00,720
What some people are capable
of is beyond belief. Don't you think?

545
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,120
Beeping

546
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:12,160
this is where we need
your help, mr lombard.

547
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:21,039
Ashamed as we are to
admit it, we've hit a brick wall.

548
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:27,199
So we thought we'd bring you to where Caroline
died and see if you could make contact.

549
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:31,399
If she can't tell us here
who killed her, where else?

550
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:37,519
Are you feeling anything? Give mr lombard a chance
to soak up the atmosphere, Jack. Yes, I'm sorry.

551
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:40,999
The coroner's report was a
harrowing read, mr lombard.

552
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,559
There were bite
marks on both arms.

553
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,279
Not rats. Her own.

554
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,559
You feeling anything?

555
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,800
No? Well, perhaps
this will help.

556
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:04,279
They estimated she lasted
42 days. Feeling anything now?

557
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:08,199
Please. I think he's
getting something.

558
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:13,119
Perhaps he needs fewer distractions.
The lights, the people... this way.

559
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:20,959
I don't know about you, but walking into this container
makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

560
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:26,400
I imagine what you're feeling will
be something a little more profound.

561
00:50:28,720 --> 00:50:32,599
I'm sorry, I'm not getting
anything. Shall we step inside?

562
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:37,200
No, I don't think that would do
any good. It's worth a try, surely.

563
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,799
Squeaking

564
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,199
what's that noise? Probably the
last sound Caroline ever made.

565
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,999
She clawed the door with
what little strength she had left.

566
00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,319
They found remarkably deep
scratch marks in the metal.

567
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:01,479
She must have wanted to live
very badly. Feel anything yet?

568
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:05,560
Let me out. You're not
giving yourself a chance.

569
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,759
Let me out!

570
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,439
They can't hear you, mr lombard.

571
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:16,159
You could scream your head
off in here for, ooh, 42 days

572
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:20,039
and it wouldn't make
a blind bit of difference.

573
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:24,200
So, tell me now,
what are you feeling?

574
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:31,759
Caroline and I met when I'd
just started out on the circuit.

575
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:38,359
She gave me confidence in my abilities. I gave
her the emotional support she was missing at home.

576
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:44,879
She used to talk about taking her life, just to make
her parents feel sorry for the way they treated her.

577
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:51,159
They were very judgmental. Always disapproved
of everything she did. It's true. They were.

578
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:55,319
Do you recognise him? No.

579
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:59,279
So she planned this...
We planned this...

580
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,519
Crazy mock abduction.

581
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,999
She stayed with me in secret
for the first couple of weeks,

582
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:12,679
then we went to the container yard
and selected a container. She went in

583
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:19,239
and I locked her in from the outside. The idea was
that she'd live for a few days like a genuine abductee

584
00:52:19,240 --> 00:52:24,039
and then, when she was found,
she would really look the part.

585
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:30,599
You'd already been to the police by
then. How else were they going to find her?

586
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,599
I came up with a few... Insights

587
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:39,399
as to her whereabouts and
then I would lead the police to her.

588
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,639
But you didn't.

589
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:47,879
I went back to the container yard one
night to tell her that everything was ok,

590
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:50,839
everything was
going to plan and...

591
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:56,679
To my absolute horror, I found
that the container had gone.

592
00:52:56,680 --> 00:53:01,879
These things go all over the country,
abroad, she could have been anywhere.

593
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:07,359
And you didn't think at that point
to come clean? Of course I did.

594
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:12,719
But then I thought that, if the container
had been moved, it was going to be used.

595
00:53:12,720 --> 00:53:19,239
Caroline would be found. Not exactly as planned,
but still with the full effect she wanted.

596
00:53:19,240 --> 00:53:25,519
But when she was undiscovered for a long time,
I began to realise... What a disaster it was.

597
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:29,600
So you met Caroline at one of
the psychic fairs? I've said as much.

598
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,559
Before you came into my office,

599
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:38,600
my enduring memory of
Caroline was of her smile.

600
00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:43,760
For the rest of my
life, there'll be all this.

601
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:57,600
..Police officers were picking me as a suspect. I
ran out of insights and withdrew as best I could.

602
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:02,399
Nah, this is too easy.

603
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:08,399
Every morning, I turned on the radio hoping that
I would hear that Caroline had been found alive.

604
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:11,759
When I finally heard the news...

605
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:16,120
Turn off that tape. This stops
right here. Sir? Turn off that tape!

606
00:54:21,720 --> 00:54:26,879
Am I the only one here who knows
how a police officer is meant to behave?

607
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:30,919
Good god, this is not the
1970s! It's not even the 1980s!

608
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:34,599
You can't verbal a suspect
and get away with it.

609
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:38,919
With due respect, it was working.
With no due respect, it wasn't!

610
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:43,079
After you went round to his house
the first time, lombard was on alert.

611
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:46,119
He knew you were in the dark!

612
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:51,599
Before opening the door to you this evening,
he phoned his solicitor on his mobile.

613
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:56,839
He left the line open for the next hour and a
half! His solicitor recorded the whole thing!

614
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:02,959
He's itching to use it in an action against you
for unlawful arrest, harassment, you name it!

615
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:06,199
'Let me out! They can't
hear you, mr lombard.

616
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,759
'You could scream your head
off in here for, ooh, 42 days.'

617
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:16,279
you thought the evaluation was a way
of closing down the unit, but it wasn't.

618
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:22,119
It was nothing more than a routine
assessment, and you passed! Just!

619
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:28,319
If someone is looking for a reason to close down ucos,
you've handed them one on a plate... As for so10,

620
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:32,119
I think we can safely
kiss that one goodbye.

621
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:39,959
Sir. So10? I told you to drop this case! It went
against all my instincts as a police officer.

622
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:46,159
Once again, your instincts have made you look very
foolish and made me look an idiot for backing you!

623
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,839
You were getting
promoted to so10?

624
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:54,839
I'll have to spend the rest of tonight working out a
way to persuade lombard's solicitor to forget this.

625
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:59,480
I'll spend all tomorrow deciding
what I'm going to do with you lot!

626
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:07,960
Don... no, I'm sorry, Jack,
not now! I'm not in the mood.

627
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,480
Look at that.

628
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:22,319
So that's why he owned
up. Yeah, nice trick.

629
00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:29,359
Here's a confession, now you see it,
now you don't. The one that got away.

630
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:33,800
He didn't get away.
We never got near him.

631
00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:42,839
Sorry, I should have told you about
my promotion. None of our business.

632
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:49,439
Ooh, evaluation report. Blimey, these results are
surprisingly good, and the urine is very interesting.

633
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:55,439
I suppose you're the pregnant woman? You weren't
really going to take that promotion, were you?

634
00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:59,679
You know what? I
need a really stiff drink.

635
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:04,800
Good idea... Come on, clarky, I'll
buy you a shandy. I'll catch you up.

636
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:11,199
She wouldn't, would she? I mean,
what's so10 got that ucos hasn't?

637
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:14,320
Well, not us, for a start.

638
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,560
Nah, she wouldn't.

639
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:03,000
