George?

WATER TRICKLES

Oh, George, this won't help!

..He had a nail through his head.

It's taken two years of my demands
for anyone to take notice.

INTERVIEWER: What made you take up
your grandfather's case?

George Western was a young man
when he was murdered in 1948. He
did his duty for King and Country.

What's in it for him?
Reparation for the family?

Fifteen minutes of fame!
I want justice. I want to know
what happened to my grandfather.

The public have got behind this case
because they can smell a rat.

The public have got behind
this case because...they're fickle!

The police were less than
thorough in the original inquiry.

It is my hope that with the new
information, they can make amends.

This new information you uncovered,
does it point suspicion at anyone

or indicate a motive
for your grandfather's death?

I don't want to jeopardise anything
the police are investigating,

but he was a conscientious objector.
I believe that had something
to do with his murder.

Are you saying this was a cover-up?

A nail through the head.
Someone was trying to make a point.

In my mind,
this was a State-ordered execution.

"Confidential, re George Western.

"Further to our discussion, I agree
with you that action should be taken
to remove the above permanently,

"before any further damage
is sustained."

Strong stuff. Dated the same month
Western was murdered. September '48.

Nail through the head - as permanent
a removal as you can get!

Wasn't there a Monty Python sketch?
"Dinsdale used to nail our 'eads
to the coffee table."

Why would the MoD be bothered with
a conscript, an ordinary soldier?

As a warning to others?
Or is it David and Goliath?
You mean, he was a threat?

So how did the Boy Wonder get
hold of this "new information"?

HE REWINDS VIDEO

My grandfather was a conscientious
objector. I believe that had
something to do with his murder.

What does
"conscientious objector" say to you?

Me? Yeah, you.

..Coward.

Really? Is that what it means
to you? Didn't want to fight.

It's not a reason to kill someone.
I don't buy State execution.

Is that how the State removes
people - a nail through the head?

Not normally, Mel, no,

but if you want to cover your tracks,

it's a possibility, isn't it?

Check the provenance on this.
Concentrate on his diary, find out...

It's GOT a date on it - 1948.

Check the diary, find out his
relationship with the military
and his political beliefs. OK? OK.

Hello, George.
Hey, how you doing?

All right.

Eye-witnesses said George Western
was in the pub that night.

Who's going to talk to neighbours,
see if any knew the Westerns? Mel.

Right. Come on, Spence.

Don't worry, Spence. That generation
didn't move around a great deal.

He's very reluctant, isn't he?

So, George Western leaves the pub...

All right, George? Coming back
for a drink? No, I'm going home.

Takes a jug of ale with him,
which he did most nights.

A regular at the pub take-home.
Sounds like one of the lads! When
did he start to consciously object?

..He enlisted in '42,
in '43 he was in North Africa,

in '44 he and the rest of the
Lindfield Regiment were in Chelmsford
Barracks waiting for D-Day.

That's when he became
a conscientious objector.

Why so late?
Maybe North Africa did it for him.

He married Violet in '45 and they
left their home in the East End and
came here to this little paradise.

And they had a son, Terrence. Who
later became Adam Western's father.

OK, form a queue and keep up.

Hi, I'm DS Silver.

Just making enquiries about a family
who lived just down the road...

So Violet and the baby
were here in this bedroom.

What's this about a visitor? Well,
two witnesses claim to have seen...

claim to have seen...

a man.

'..Mrs Western?'

They talked but Violet got upset.

'Please leave!' But she'd
always denied there was any visitor.

If only Violet hadn't gone under
a Tube! Pushed, jumped or slipped?
It went down as suicide in 1958.

Perhaps the visitor was a lover?

BABY CRIES

So Western got back from the pub
approximately nine o'clock.

Neighbours reported a shouting match.
And this is a pacifist?

No. No, no.

This is a conscientious objector.

You can be a conscientious objector
and still like a bloody good fight?

If your convictions, Frankie, are
at odds with the rest of the world,

you have to shout and argue
to get your voice heard, OK? OK.

So Western and his wife

were arguing.

'..Don't!
I'm your husband! It's OK...'

After a while,
she left him and went to bed.

There was no sign of a break-in.

So the murderer was either...
let in...

..or he let himself in.

'You know, things happen
in the past and...'

ON RADIO: 'One four, come in.

'Come in, one four. Over.'

One four. 'Have you still
got a problem there? Over.'

Yeah. Ring the police. The old boy
thinks something may have happened.

FLIES BUZZ

None of them knew the Westerns...

Who did his wife see that day?
Why did he end up as an objector?

Perhaps Adam Western would know.
Shall we get him in? No, he's got
an agenda. He's right up himself.

I just need a bit more time, Mel,

so I can get a bit clearer
about this in my head.

You all right?

Right, the cab driver's ready
to take you home, Mr Brackley.

Are you going to be all right?

Come on.

It might be possible that Western
was part of a Fifth Column.

A Communist, you mean?
How do you make that leap?

Well, he made a stance and
he was a man of conscience.

Maybe that developed into a form
of political activism after the war,

riding on the back of Clement Attlee,
"land fit for heroes," "New
Jerusalem". Well, it's possible.

..Maybe he just
didn't want to play any more?

What do you mean,
"He didn't want to play any more"?!
It's just a figure of speech, Boyd.

I don't think conscientious objectors
thought of it as playing!
That's what I'm saying. Come on!

Could he have been killed for his
political beliefs? English political
martyrs are a thing of the past.

We got OUR revolution out of
the way with Oliver Cromwell.

We still care, don't we? We're not
completely politically apathetic.

We still care about bringing
about change in society.

There's a post-modernist theory that
says we're only concerned with what
affects us directly as individuals.

So as each generation comes along,
it cares less about the plight
of the previous generation? Yeah.

To a certain extent.

History is dying.

That's a depressing thought.

PHONE RINGS
Don't worry.
There's lots of other theories.

Yeah?

The locals are on the ball.
They knew about Western.

I think they were glad
to shift this one onto us.
No SOCOs or anything? No.

Old men with 9-inch nails in their
heads doesn't do much for morale.
Doesn't do much for old men!

It's not a nice way to go.
Is there a nice way to go?

Yeah, on a Caribbean beach
in the arms of a handsome stranger!
Come on! I'll get my stuff.

How long has he been dead?
Couple of months.

I'll look at weather forecasts over
the past few weeks to assess the
rate of decomposition. That's new!

But I'd say...he was about 70.

And I don't mean to be boring
but don't touch anything.

Are there any rituals for getting
rid of pacifists? You mean cowards?
No, I mean pacifists.

Like white feathers, only lethal.
That was First World War. I know!
You mean conscientious objectors?

That's what I mean. Not a ritual I've
heard of. You've covered it all(?)

The killer had a few attempts
at this.

This poor guy was thrashing around
while some sadist lined up a nail?!
Nobody said anything about a sadist.

What the hell WAS he? All we
know about him is that he had an
unhealthy interest in 9-inch nails.

I think the victim was dead before
this happened. So it wasn't
the nail that actually killed him?

I don't think so - lack of blood
around the entry wound.

OK. ..Get off!

Who alerted the police? Some other
old codger. What was he doing here?

Hadn't seen him for months.
He got worried.
What was this old codger's name?

..Officer?

Is this his daughter
or his granddaughter?

Whoever it is, they obviously
meant a great deal to him.
So this could be his wife.

Yeah, there's odd bits and pieces
of women's clothing here.

This girl's
in her 20s which means that...

they must have got together in the
'70s. That makes him quite a liberal.

Because he married a black woman?
People do. They did in the '70s.
Maybe he fell in love with her!

That's not my point, Grace.

Maybe hanging onto this stuff,
hoping she might come back.
She doesn't live here any more.

So what's his name? Which one?

The guy who found him.

Joe Brackley.

Ah!

Thank you very much.

Hi, Frankie. Thank you very much.

What are we doing? What?

The body. Who is it? Don't know.
One of Frankie's. I borrowed it.

Yeah, I didn't authorise this! This
is an exercise in sensitisation.

You what? Sensitisation.

Mm, yeah, you said that.

This case is 60 years old, right? As
the victims are old and grey, do they
deserve a lesser degree of justice?

No, that's not what I said.
That's not what I meant.

Have you stopped to think for just
one minute what this case involves?

Imagine it...

The tip of the nail...
breaks the skin.

Does it crush through the brain or
does the skull crack open like a nut?

Well, no, because... Yeah, I KNOW
you know, Frankie. OK, sorry. Yeah.

But do you know what scares me
more than imagining all that? What?

Your reaction. My reaction? It's
just another case to you. Some wacko.

What's wrong with my reaction?
"We'll get him in the end." What if
you don't - cos you are desensitised?

What is it with you?
Did the horror stop being horrific?
No! I'm just doing my job!

WAKE UP!

Because here's a brief
history lesson for you two.

The world was different in 1948. The
country had been at war for six years

and, arguably, the population were
more civilised and more sensitive
than they are today.

In the context of the day, if someone
hammered a 9-inch nail through your
skull, it wasn't for kicks,

it was because
they had a reason. A reason!

That's what we have to find -
the reason.

Mel. What?

Hammer the nail through the skull.

..No way!

Oh.

Spence...

Go on. ..I've made it easy for you -
the guy's already dead.

Go on, hammer the nail into
the skull and get a glimpse...
of the kind of man we're looking for.

HE DROPS NAIL ONTO TABLE

How did you know him?
I was on holiday in Cambridgeshire
last summer and we became friends.

But you didn't know him before that?
No, no.

So...take a seat there.

Thank you. Would you like some tea
or...? Yes, please. No sugar. Right.

Grace? Yeah?

Tea, no sugar, please. Just the one.

Joe Brackley.

Hello. Dr Foley, Grace Foley.

So, William Davis...
Bit of a recluse? At that house
in the middle of the woods and...

You could say that. So how
did you...? Become friends? Mm.

I ran into his car. Sorry?
My car crashed into his.

I haven't driven since. It was one
accident too many. So you crashed
into his car and became friends?

I didn't have the proper documents,
insurance and suchlike,

and the police weren't involved,
so I went round to his house
and we got talking.

I...thought he was...

very, very lonely.

How long had he lived by himself?
I don't know. He wasn't the type
who was used to living on his own,

so I can't imagine
he was like that for long.

You want to be careful, Spence.
What about?

Ending up like this. Like what?

A sad, lonely, old man!

Not much chance of that! More
chance of you ending up a spinster.

An Agatha Christie-type detective
that everyone thinks is a lesbian!
Desensitised, are we, Spence?

"Mrs Carmen Davis.

"Return to sender."

Do you know anything about a wife
or a daughter? No, we never
talked about personal things.

Seemed insensitive,

because he was so very,
very depressed.

So his wife could have died?

Um, yeah - Hattensbury Gardens,
that's right.

..OK, thanks.

They don't live there any more.

Do you think
that she might have left him?

I don't know, I mean....

He didn't want
to talk about it, and...

when somebody doesn't want to
talk... You don't talk about it.
Mm. No, I understand.

I understand that.

All dated within the last
six months. Begging her back.

And no other address.

Is Mrs Davis a suspect?

When was the last time you saw him?

In the summer.
About two or three months ago. Mm.

What made you visit him again?

Worry...concern.

But why didn't you
just call him on the phone?
He hadn't paid his phone bill.

But it's a long way,
isn't it, Joe, from...Wandsworth?

Er...a bus from Victoria.

And then a taxi.

Well, you ARE a good friend.
Well, maybe I've got nothing
better to do with my life.

Do you have any idea...

..why...

why somebody would do this?

We do have somebody here
that you could talk to
about yesterday, if you want to.

It's not something one
wants to see every day.

..I was just being polite to an old
man. I can't get it right with you!

If I'm hard on him, you don't like
it... This is George Western's skull

and this is William Davis's.
With matching holes.

Well, identical in terms of width,
so I'd say made by similar nails.

We don't have the one that went
through Western's skull. Why not?
Don't know. Lost in police archive?

Lose a 9-inch nail?!
Maybe someone hangs their coat
on it. Or incompetence.

There are indentations
in both skulls, more so in Davis's,

which could have been caused by a
hammer. So that's what killed them?

Or the hammer slipped
when they were banging the nail in.

So they could have been conscious
when the nail went through the head?
So we ARE looking for a sadist!

It depends on how you define sadist.
Well, go on.

A sadist derives pleasure
from inflicting pain on others,

be it physical, sexual or emotional.

So it could be sexual?
Or physical or emotional.

Well, the nails are nine inches!
Boyd! Means a lot to a guy. Boyd!

I'm sorry! Just a thought. Come on!
Frankie, forgive me. Not in my lab.

Now, this word here,
I believe to be "secret" -

he talks about something
that will be "forced to come out".

He refers to somebody being "party
to it" and he talks about "they".

The Army? Could mean anything.
An "L", an "act". "They will act"?

What year was this written? '44.
That was the year that Western
was discharged from the Army.

What if he refused to carry out
an order - conscientious objector -
and that triggered an event,

or a series of events,
that marked him out as a subversive?

What if someone took his place
in battle and was killed?

So, George Western's murder
was revenge?

Possibly. What about Davis?
He could have been
a conscientious objector as well.

Maybe the whole
bloody regiment were!

Thanks. ..The postman confirms
Davis had a wife and daughter.

Reckons the daughter was a musician,
judging by her correspondence.
Is she a professional?

I'll check with the Musicians'
Union. What's the connection between
Davis and Western, if there is one?

Well, they were contemporaries -
they might have known each other.

Could they have been
in the Army together?

Spence is on to the MoD.
Good.

If you'd like to wait here a moment,
sir, I'll see if he's available, OK?

Sir, Joe Brackley
is here to see you.

Oh, God... Mr Brackley!
You think William's murder
and this other one are connected?

I don't know.
What can I do for you, Mr Brackley?

Would you, um...? Well, you're in -
would you like to take a seat?

Thank you. I hope this isn't too
much of an intrusion but when I left
you earlier, I remembered something.

Good.

I forget what it was now.

Was it anything
to do with William Davis?

Perhaps you have something
written in your notebook.

Thank you. That's all right.

Ah, yes, there's...two names.

Davis mentioned them.

Martin Raynor...and Johnny Mann.

Martin Raynor...and Johnny Mann. Yes.

Do you know where I can contact them?

I'm sorry, but I thought that you,

with your, uh, satellites
and computers...

TAP ON WINDOW
..I thought it would be of some use.
I need to speak to you urgently.

Just one sec. OK.

Do you know if William Davis
was in the forces?

No.

He wasn't or you don't know?

I don't know.

OK.

Well, I'm, uh...

I'm very busy, Mr Brackley,
so thank you for coming in. Oh.

Excuse me, Mark, could you show
Mr Brackley out of the building?
Thank you.

Thank you.

Yeah? Look at this.

What IS this?

1961, a Norman Taylor was found
murdered in a working men's club
in Hackney.

A 9-inch nail through his skull.

1961 - 13 years after Western.

So '48, '61 and now...

Boyd, a Sophie Davis
was a flautist with
the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.

They had an address where she lives
with her mum so they sent someone
round to break the news.

OK, thanks, Mel.

Davis had high levels of diazepam in
his system, way beyond normal use.

Is that the cause of death?
No, heart attack.

There were signs
of a struggle at the crime scene.

So he put up a fight?

Maybe, or maybe he just had
a big shock and his heart went pop.

He could've taken the pills
just to go to bed. No, too much.

He was depressed.
What about suicide?

Yeah, but you wouldn't stick a nail
through your own head, would you?

You might
if you were very depressed!

OK...so...so, what you're saying

is that...somebody... Hang on, could
have been more than one person.

..more than one person, gave him
diazepam to force him to the
ground to put a nail to his head.

Why sedate someone? It's going to
take time to work. What do you do -
sit there and talk to them?

Ah, but there was evidence
of a struggle.

Maybe they got impatient.

Pulls him to the ground.

And then he saw the nail.

Obviously, he's shocked.

And then his heart goes pop.

Yeah, but why use diazepam at all,
then? Why not just attack him?
He was an old man.

They wanted him to be conscious,
they wanted him...to suffer.

The way he died!

I don't understand.

Who would DO that?

How long were you married?

25 years.

How did you meet? Through my church,

the Church of Jesus the Saviour.

We are spiritual Christians.

And William
went to the same church? Yes.

He turned up at a service one day

and we started to become friends.

He was a proper gentleman.

And you separated...?

Six months ago. Why was that?

Differences. Which were...?

Irreconcilable.

Our daughter is a flautist.

William was her manager.
There were certain...irregularities.

Such as?

Monies misappropriated.

Is your daughter here?

Could I speak with her, please? Why?

Ask her some questions, that's all.

I'm still waiting. ..Yes.

That's correct.
You know what I find staggering?

That there's no links made
between the George Western case
and the Norman Taylor case.

Card-indexing. There's no computers,
no cross-referencing, '61.
Of course, yes.

MoD won't play ball.
They reckon a couple of months.

Go and work your magic. Check out
the name Norman Taylor. He got his
head nailed to the floor in 1961.

How clumsy of him.

Sorry, I'm just being funny -
not desensitised!

Not that funny, either.

What's the significance
of these nails, then, Grace?

I don't know,
but it's biblical, isn't it?

Yeah, the one in each hand
and the feet, but...

I don't mean the crucifixion,

but something earlier.

Your father
was taking your earnings? Yes.

..As far as we knew.

You don't play any more, do you?

No. Why not?

I can't.

What do you mean? We are Christians.

We hold the faith dear.

William didn't.

He destroyed this family.

He destroyed us.

He destroyed our trust.

And he...he shamed us.

This IS just about the money?

Yes. ..But why
would that stop you playing?

When someone betrays you like that,

a lot of things
cease to have any value.

God will help us
to rebuild our lives,

but it will take time.

And people constantly reminding us
of him will only make it take longer.

OK.

Look, I'm sorry to ask you this,

but can you see any religious
significance with the nails?
Read your Bible.

I think you'll find what you want
in there.

Thank you.

A nail...

right through there.

Perfect!

You're not allowed in here.
This is a crime scene.

Officer!

A man just got in
through the back door.

CAR ENGINE STARTS

Prick!

If you wanna go, I'd go.

I'm going to be a while.

"Bow down before the one you serve,
you're going to get
what you deserve."

And this band is called...? The
Nine-Inch Nails. These are lyrics
from a song called Head Like A Hole.

What year is this?
They weren't around in 1948!

But I searched the Internet
for "Nine-Inch Nails".

Cutting-edge detective work(!)
Sharp as a nail.

I came up with 359,000 options.

It's knife... Mm?

Sharp as a knife.

Hm.

This is just an angry rant.

That, Grace,
is "to describe something
in terms that sum it up precisely".

Hit the nail on the head!
To "nail someone down" - to extract
a definite decision or promise,

"to catch, trap or corner,
to detect, identify or expose

"a lie, deception etc."

You're saying these are cryptic
killings? Why use a nail? It's such
a functional, precise object.

Punishment? Possibly as
a deterrent or retribution? But
by an individual, not by the State.

It's a long time since we burnt
the tongues of gossips and
chopped off the hands of thieves.

We still stone adulterers in
some countries. Only women, actually.

And that's in countries
that are run by the law of God,
not the people's law.

Deterrence works as a threat,
and the punishment fits the crime.
Punishment fits the crime? Mm.

But we were still disciplining
and executing troops
in the Second World War.

But that's legitimised
State retribution. It doesn't
involve the use of nails.

OK. Well...

you've hit the nail on the head
there, haven't you?

Hammered it home. Sorry?

Hi, there.

Hi.
COMPUTER BLEEPS

We have a name for the man who
spooked Frankie. I wasn't! Car's
registered to a Neil Clayton, 59.

I checked out his address but he
doesn't live there any more. Can
I get this clear? I wasn't spooked!

He's a potential suspect. Returning
to the scene of the crime? How many
people know it's a scene of crime?

He can't be a suspect in the
Western murder. He'd have only been
about three or four in 1948.

What about the Davis or Taylor
murders? Why don't we have Taylor
exhumed, see what we can find out?

Tricky - he was cremated. Ah.

These may be totally unrelated
copycat murders.

They could be.
Except for one thing. What?

Norman Taylor was in the same
regiment and the same battalion
as George Western during the war.

What about Davis?
No, no Davis, just Taylor.

Brackley said that Davis mentioned
two men - Martin Raynor, Johnny Mann.

See if they've got any files at the
MoD when you go back. Can't wait(!)

Did Taylor's file say anything about
him being a conscientious objector?
No. Are we still pursuing that?

Well, I'm keeping an open mind.
We'll stick with it until I say...

"We're not going to stick with it."
Exactly, you see, she knows.

OK, chief.

Well, well, well!

Mr Spook - sorry,
Neil Clayton's - got form.
Why doesn't that surprise me?

Here's the irony. He used to be
a Professor of Criminology at
Cambridge University! Used to be?

Suspended sentence for a common
assault on a student in a pub,

but he first came to notice for
stripping off during a protest on
Oxford Street. Knew he was a prick!

Western and Taylor were in the
Lindfield Regiment 7th Battalion,

along with Martin Raynor and Johnny
Mann. You HAVE been working hard!

There's no register of their death
at the Family Records Office.
So all we need to do is find them.

Boyd wants a list of everyone in
Western's regiment still alive.

This is the list of those
who survived the war. It's nowhere
near as long as those who died.

Back to the Records Office.
Good luck. I'll start with the As.

CANNON FIRE
AND MILITARY MUSIC

I'm looking for Mr Atkinson?
That's me.

Edward Atkinson? No, that's my
grandfather. I'm Ian Atkinson.
It's your grandfather I need to see.

Can I help? Oh, no, it's not
about the shop. DS Silver.

Wow! Never met a DS before.

Please... Thanks.

George Western?

And Norman Taylor. I remember them.

Can you tell me anything about them?
I fought beside them in Africa.

Do you know anything about their
backgrounds? Bits and pieces.

Western got married,
had a son, Terrence,

and I think he died.
And Norman Taylor?

Country boy. Born in a little
village just outside Chelmsford.

Does the name William Davis
mean anything to you?

No.

Do you know anyone who would
wish them harm, Western and Taylor?

No.

D'you remember Johnny Mann,
Martin Raynor?

Yes.

Do you know where they are now?

No, I'm sorry.

What are you hiding from me,
Mr Atkinson?

I've had...a long life, my dear.

And I've seen things
that you wouldn't believe.

So there's a lot
that I'm hiding from you,

and the rest of the world.

But you...wouldn't be interested.

Edward Atkinson knew of Western,
Taylor, Raynor and Mann.

And...? That's it.
Couldn't tell me any more.

But he didn't remember anyone having
a grudge against any of them. OK.

Jehovah's Witnesses and Quakers.
Mm-hm, what about them?

Find out if any of those men
were of that religious persuasion.

OK. Why? Because...

Mel...

since 1652, Quakers have practised
non-violence to effect
social and religious change.

Same with Jehovah's Witnesses. They
wouldn't have signed up. Hang on.

But they might have upset somebody
by being there. OK. Yeah?

..Yeah?

The MoD memo is a forgery. ..OK?

It's a reasonable forgery,
but not outstanding.

Whoever did this used a period
typewriter, and the paper isn't very
old but it's been dipped in coffee.

And the MoD heading
is courtesy of a laser jet printer,
which is certainly not period.

Very good! Adam Western supposedly
found it in his grandfather's
belongings. Why wasn't this checked?

Well...I think we should get
Adam Western in, yeah?

Yeah, wipe that smirk off his face.

COMPUTER BEEPS

DS Jordan. DS Silver.

The MoD memo that kick-started
this investigation was a fake.

I want a lawyer. Why?

Have you done something wrong?
It's my right.
People like you come in...

and always say the same damn thing. I
don't give a shit about your rights!

Now, YOU start
by telling me the truth.

I faked the memo. Ah!

I thought it was a good way
to get the case re-opened.

Well, you were spot on, son,

weren't you?

My grandfather's killer went free
because none of you lot could be
bothered to investigate his murder.

Think so? My grandmother committed
suicide, my father was so screwed
up, he spent his life on medication.

I need to know what happened!
Your needs don't interest me.

Lock him up overnight.

The one on the left
is his grandfather.

We think the other one
could be Martin Raynor.

He's been on the internet talking to
someone about Raynor and Mann. But
he doesn't know who, or so he says.

Get that computer over to Colonic
Irrigation and see what they come
up with. Sir, you've got a visitor.

Oh, Mr... Mr... Boyd.

Yes. ..Boyd. I wondered
how the investigation was going.

It's going as well as can be
expected, thank you, Mr Brackley,

and if there's anything I can tell
you, I promise I will. Thank you.

Boyd, the fishmonger's
in the photograph, it still exists.
Belongs to a Derek Raynor. OK.

Yeah, that's my Uncle Martin.
Don't know who the other bloke is.
Is he still alive, your uncle?

Yeah, he's in a nursing home.
Summerfields, it's called -
47 Camley Way. Thank you.

Ask for Martin Peterson, though.
He's changed his name. Why?
So Auntie Doreen couldn't find him!

Sorry, members only.

Oh. No, I'm with the police.
Forensics.

Making enquiries into a murder.
Anybody seen a dead body here?
Only old Joe!

Not so much of the old!
In the 1960s.

You're talking about Norman Taylor.

Someone did a bizarre act
of carpentry on him.

It's club legend. Can club legend
guess who murdered him or why?

Somebody didn't like him.

Right. Um, well, do you mind
if I have a look round?

Help yourself. Thanks.

Hello, I'm Nurse Ramsey.
Do you want to come through? Yes.

Ooh, I do like a man with a beard!

This is Mr Peterson. Thank you.

Mr Peterson, we're police officers.

We're making enquiries into the
murder of George Western in 1948.

We understand
you were in the Army together.

You did know him, didn't you?

Martin...! Thank you.

This is you and him, 1942.

Do you remember
that photo being taken?

Do you know the circumstances
of George Western's death?

Can you tell us why anyone
would want to murder him?

Does the name Norman Taylor
mean anything to you?

What about a William Davis?

Leave it alone!

Just leave it alone!

MARTIN COUGHS

Please, maybe you should leave now.

OXYGEN SUPPLY HISSES

I felt sorry for him.
Because he's dying?

No, because of the way he's living.
Brain's still working!

Can you shine that down the hole?
