All language subtitles for Line of Duty S02E02 Carly.DVDRip.NonHI.en.RLJ

There's been an
attack on the police.

Three of our colleagues
have lost their lives

in the line of duty.

The vehicles traveled
along Crown Avenue

and then turned
left into Long Lane,

almost immediately after
which the ambush took place.

Akers chose the route?

Yeah.

The third victim's name is
being withheld from the public

because she was from
witness protection...

D.S. Jayne Akers.

Do you think she ever knew?

Your vehicle was the
only one that wasn't shot at.

No firearms? No backup?

No firearms! No backup!

A breakthrough is imminent.

Computer on the blink?

I'm an old-fashioned girl.

I'm heading up a
newly formed unit

that's taken over
the search for Carly.

That's my new
D.C... Kate Foster.

Hi.

Denton just made a call to
the hospital from a pay phone.

Get over there, Steve.
Check on the witness.

Help!

Aaaaah!

The police officer
plunged five floors

and is reported to
have died instantly.

She has been named

as Detective Constable
Georgia Trotman, aged 28.

A police spokesperson
refused to disclose

the precise circumstances

surrounding Detective
Constable Trotman's death.

However, a murder
inquiry has been opened

and officers are
seeking a suspect

in connection with
the investigation.

The witness is dead.

Jesus wept.

They've brought
someone in. Copper.

D.C.S. Hargreaves,
D.S. Rogerson.

Major Violent Crime Unit.

I'm very sorry
about D.C. Trotman.

Thank you.

We're interested in what
you were up to at the hospital.

There on a tip-off, weren't you?

If you speak to
Superintendent Hastings...

Where did that
tip-off come from, eh?

Who's got that kind
of inside information?

I do honestly want to help, sir,

but I'm really not at liberty
to answer that question.

Your partner fell five floors.

The pathologist had
to spoon half her brain

back inside her skull.

Do you not want to help
us get the bastard that did it?

There were two of
you, weren't there, eh?

Two of you. One of him.

Sit down.

You're going nowhere
till I've got corroboration

you were there
on lawful business.

You know a Lorna Barrett?

Of her.

She's my next-door
neighbor, sir.

Professional standards
are serving you a Reg 15.

Miss Barrett's c/o'd
assault occasioning ABH.

You struck her with a bottle,
beat her head against the floor.

May I, sir?

D.C. Foster.

What are you playing at?

I just feel more comfortable
with a witness, sir.

Sir. Ma'am.

Would you mind repeating
what you just said, sir?

Lorna Barrett alleges
you struck her with a bottle

and alleges you beat
her head against the floor.

Ms. Barrett is an alcoholic

with a long history
of mental illness.

It's very sad.

You deny the charges?

An officer gets
accused, falsely,

and the vultures start circling.

I'm just not gonna take it, sir.

I'm gonna clear my name,

even if it means dragging the
lot of you through the courts.

You're already under
investigation by AC-12.

If standards have got any
sense, they'll make it their problem.

Steve, you're fine.

Come on.

Could I have a word
with you, please?

Here. If you want
to go down that road.

Your treatment of my officer was
unsympathetic and provocative.

As a matter of policy,

anti-corruption cannot
discuss the details

of any ongoing investigation,
as you well know.

Yeah, well, you
have it your way, eh?

Leave real policing
to the experts.

Experts?

Would that be your guard
unit you're referring to, sir?

You all right? How's your head?
Do you need to see the doctor?

I'm fine. What
happened to the guards?

They got locked out
on a disused fire escape

chasing an intruder.

Thought they could make
their way back to their posts

before anybody noticed.

Pair of bloody idiots
got Georgia killed.

You can be very
proud of your daughter.

She was a dedicated young
officer who gave her life

trying to protect the public.

If there's anything I can do,
just call on me at any time.

Let me. Let me.

I promise you we'll find
the people who did it.

So I'm here.

Thank you.

Well, why the mystery?

We lost Georgia.

The girl we had dinner with?

Oh, my God, Ted. I'm so sorry.

Is there anything I can do?

Don't.

Don't use the poor girl's
death to diminish what you did.

If you're sending flowers,
make them from me too.

You. I could sue your arse.

If we could try to get
along like grown-ups,

maybe you could
understand that it would help

if you didn't play your
music so loudly at night.

Well, if it helps you,
how about you help me?

Hundred.

I'm not giving you money.

A hundred and I keep it down.

10.

Fine.

Michelle? I'm D.I. Denton.

Is there somewhere
quiet we can talk?

Carly's foster parents thought
she might have been with you

the night she disappeared.

In your original statement,
you referred to a boyfriend.

I don't know if he was.

She started hanging out less,

and it was like maybe
he was the reason.

In your statement, you said
you didn't remember his name.

I think it was
Matt or something.

But the policewoman
said if I couldn't be sure,

not to put it in the statement.

And what else do you
remember about him?

Asian.

Fit.

Older.

How old?

Don't know. 30?

After Carly disappeared,

did her boyfriend ever
come looking for her?

No.

Maybe he didn't
come looking for her

because he was in
on her disappearance.

I want to go and see
Carly's foster parents again.

Okay.

What's the address again?

Um, Queen Street.

FC1 4RC.

I've been trying to
find the right time,

but there never seems to be one.

I'd rather not talk about that.

People talk, that's
all. 'Round the station.

Well, they shouldn't.

Yes, ma'am.

Sorry, ma'am. I don't
mean to badger you.

It's just...

Well, you were the one who
made the point of calling me in

to witness the
meeting with Mallick.

True.

In which case,

it might help if you'd give
me the gen on your neighbor.

She's lying.

If you're worried
about a charge, though,

I could say I was there,

just to back up your
version of events.

I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

Hi.

Hi. I'm Detective
Sergeant Steve Arnott.

We spoke at the hospital.

Can I come in?

I know you had a very long
interview with my colleagues

on the Major Violent Crime Unit,

so I'll keep this as
brief as possible.

I want to start with
the two firearms officers

who were assigned
to protect the witness.

Why weren't they at their post?

Because of Joe.

Sorry, that's the
only name I've got.

How?

He was dressed in scrubs,

and he told them he
thought he'd seen someone

out on the fire
escape with a gun.

As soon as they stepped out
to check, he locked the door.

How'd he get onto
the intensive care unit

and pass himself off as a nurse?

I... I gave him access.

How do you know Joe?

Um, a couple of days earlier,

he bumped into my car
in the hospital car park.

He was very apologetic.

He offered to pay for the
repairs at his mate's garage,

so I wouldn't have to
wait for the insurance.

So tell me how Joe involved you.

We took my car to
his mate's garage,

and then he gave me a lift home.

Then the next morning,
he called 'round

so we could drop
Nathan at nursery.

But instead of going
to collect my car,

Joe said we were
going to the hospital.

He said...

♪ Bye-bye ♪

He said he knew people
who would kill Nathan

unless I did what
they needed me to do.

I know I should have told
someone so they could stop him,

but I was too scared.

Joe said they'd
already killed police,

so not even they
could protect me.

It's all right.

Around the time of the killing,

there was a call
to the hospital.

Do you know

or have you ever had any
contact with a police officer

named Detective
Inspector Lindsay Denton?

No.

You're sure?

Detective Inspector
Lindsay Denton.

Definite.

W-Was she the one?

The one?

Who got killed?

No.

- You okay?
- Fine.

What were Denton's movements
while we were at the hospital?

She made the call, then
visited her mum's nursing home.

I checked it out, and
she stayed with her mum

for exactly half an hour.

The exact time of the killing.

Perfect alibi. Plus
using the phone box.

Yeah, well, I
checked out the trace.

Now, the timing matches
exactly with an outside call

that was connected
to the reception desk

on the intensive care unit.

- Female voice, same time.
- It had to be Denton.

The caller insisted
they page the nurse,

but they wouldn't because
she wouldn't give her name.

I didn't know Georgia.
She seemed nice.

Yeah.

Mate, if you ever
need to talk... Cheers.

Same.

Right. Night.

Night.

This is an e-fit of the suspect.

We put that together
with the nurse there.

Be great if we could
circulate to the press.

Absolutely. I want
those guards disciplined.

Sir.

This can't bloody get out.

The witness was close to
regaining consciousness.

It's very disappointing, sir.

Our best lead.

Sir.

So where are you
with the vehicle?

- The ambush vehicle?
- Yes, the ambush vehicle.

There's no forensics to
connect it to the gunmen.

Since we can't trace
them via the vehicle,

we've been concentrating
on traffic cams,

trying to plot the route
that it took that night,

but so far we've... Nothing.

Right.

You all right to hang around
for a couple of secs, Les?

Jo's got an idea she
wants to go over with you.

Right, sir.

What idea?

From now on, Les does
the press conferences.

And this is my idea?

Obviously, if there are
any major breakthroughs,

I'll step back up to the plate.

So when would it be possible

to schedule a meeting with
Deputy Chief Constable Dryden?

His diary's full for the week.

Yeah, I-I appreciate

he's got a hectic round
of media appoint...

I can go back to him.

Did you say you were
Superintendent Hayman?

No, no. Hastings.
Like the battle.

- Leave it with me, sir.
- Thank you kindly.

Cab for Jo Dwyer? Hillside
Lane Station, please.

Hi, Jo. Pleased to meet
you. I'm Lindsay Denton.

I know who you are,

and I'm already
late for a meeting.

I'm so sorry. I know you
must be rushed off your feet.

But this... It won't take
a minute of your time.

You must get so
many calls and e-mails.

I'm sorry. I should
have replied.

It's been a busy time.

It's about publicizing
the disappearance

of a teenage girl, Carly Kirk.

I'll get back to you
as soon as I can.

- You're avoiding me.
- No.

I'm a serving missing
persons detective

and I intend to
discharge my duties

until someone
tells me otherwise.

Of course.

Well, then, help
me find this girl.

Okay.

Why are you lying to me?

We didn't really
meet properly before.

Nicky Rogerson.

Sorry about my
boss' questioning.

He's under a lot of pressure.

At least he spared
me the strip search.

What's going on?

A&B Carriage Repairs
was a legit business.

Moved on over a year ago.
Unit's been vacant ever since.

What became of the nurse's car?

Found dumped.

It's being checked
over for forensics.

- Found any?
- Nothing.

Nothing here either.

We're locking it
down and moving out.

Hargreaves calls you "Jolly."

"Jolly" Rogerson.

He's a laugh a minute.

By the looks, it's not been
touched since they moved out.

Apparently.

You checked CCTV
from the hospital car park?

Maybe.

Any chance of
AC-12 getting a peek?

Nurse's car.

Joe's car.

- No accident.
- Mm.

He never once turns 'round
so the camera can see him.

That's 'cause he
knows it's there.

You get a trace on that car?

Same story as the ambush.

Stolen vehicle, cloned plates.

He's the go-between.

You get him,
you get the killers,

you get the police officer
they're working with.

You never saw a
face in the hospital?

No.

Only Georgia did.

Boss, we've had a call
off Carly's mate, Michelle.

She remembered something
about the boyfriend.

Said he was into cars.
Might have been a mechanic.

Okay.

Uh, just give me a minute.

We're all set to meet the press.

Come with me a minute.

Take a seat.

Uh... What's wrong?

Have they found a body?

No. No.

But unfortunately there isn't
gonna be a press conference.

Why not?

There's insufficient
interest in the story.

I get it.

Carly's just some nothing
from a broken home.

I'm so sorry.

But no one's giving up on Carly.

- This is your job.
- Tess...

Look, this is your job!

You get them to be here.

You get them to ask
people to find Carly.

Tess.

She's upset, D.I. Denton.
We know it's not your fault.

No? Whose is it, then?

What did you tell
him? Working late?

Yeah, something like that.

He believes you?

Kate?

Are they any nearer to finding
out what happened to Jayne?

I think so.

And?

There's a prime suspect.

Sounds like there's a doubt.

There won't be.

This is an e-fit of a suspect
strongly linked to the ambush.

He used the name Joe.

So there was a connection

with the incident
at the hospital?

I, uh... No. Um, I...

"No," there wasn't an individual

connected to the 5th
of September ambush

receiving treatment?

Or, "no," this individual
wasn't involved in an incident?

As I say, I'm not at liberty

to confirm any connection.

Would Deputy Chief
Constable Dryden

be at liberty to
confirm a connection?

I'm constantly in touch

with the deputy chief constable.

But not right now.

This is a complicated operation

involving 90 officers
working around the clock.

Peace offering.

Kate, that's really
not necessary.

Listen, boss, I screwed up.

This is an important
posting for me.

I was too eager to please.

Thanks.

You're gorgeous, aren't you?

Yes, you are. Yes, you are.

She's a little princess, I bet.

Aren't they all?

I bet you get your
own way, don't you?

I bet you do.

Lived here long?

A year.

No, it's probably
closer to 18 months.

Easy to lose track.

This place is very cozy.

I had somewhere.

I just... had to downsize.

I'm sorry, boss.

I'm probably
interrupting something.

I'm not sparkling company.
I-I've got a lot on my plate.

Thanks for the wine.
It was a nice thought.

Why don't I go and have a word?

No, um, please don't.

Couple of minutes,
she always turns it down.

Okay.

And you were right, ma'am,
that people shouldn't talk.

Problem is they do, and no
one's getting to hear your side.

AC-12, they twist everything
and make everyone look guilty.

I wouldn't have taken this
posting if I thought you were.

There's an interesting exercise.

You take the worst
thing you've ever done,

and you state it in
the simplest terms.

No dressing it up,
no implicit mitigation.

I wouldn't want
to play that game.

No, me neither. But AC-12 do.

What's the worst thing
you've ever done to anyone?

Have you done something, boss?

Yours first.

I, um...

Someone told a lie to
help a dead man's family,

and I didn't stand
up for the truth.

No.

You've done worse than that.

We'll work well together

only when you can be
completely honest with me.

I'll let you get some rest.

Phone and financial
record requests.

I just need your signature, sir.

Phone and financial
record requests.

I've just got the tick
from the chief super.

I'm the case officer, so
returns for my eyes only, please.

Jo, come through.
Thanks, Denise.

Two minutes, Ted.

What do they know,
or think they know?

They've got a source

claiming that a vehicle
registered to your wife

was captured by a safety camera

around 10:00 p.m.
on August 16th.

A fixed three-point penalty
notice was sent to your wife

and it's alleged
she claimed, falsely,

that you were the driver.

How the hell did they get that?

Told you. They've got a source.

What, some bobby
with an ax to grind

fancies stabbing me in
the back for a few quid?

Don't these idiots realize
I'm trying to improve their lot?

But is it true?

Helen was home. I was driving.

I'll throw your denial
straight back at them.

Thank you.

But if they're confident
in their source,

they'll run it anyway.

What can you do
to limit the damage?

Me?

You.

The ambush is
still the bigger story.

Crack the case, and
the speed camera

won't even make page eight.

Why are they doing this to me?

You have to ask? Seriously?

Ted. Very sorry.

Have you been
offered tea, coffee?

Ah, plenty, plenty.
Thank you, sir.

I can see you're busy,

so I'll come straight
to the point, if I may.

I'd be grateful.

AC-12 would like
to access all areas

relevant to the 5th of
September ambush.

- Those areas being?
- Witness Protection.

- Ted...
- With no reciprocity.

You know the sensitivity of W.P.

It's prudent to compartmentalize
the investigation.

And how is that going, sir?

I'm only interested in the
best way to get results, Ted.

We've identified a
prime suspect, sir.

A police officer
possibly involved

in setting up the ambush,

and a go-between with
links to the criminal parties

that carried it out.

The missing link is in
witness protection, sir.

I'm nearly certain of it.

Who are these individuals?

I'd rather not say at
this particular time, sir.

"Rather not"?

With respect, sir, that's
what "no reciprocity" means.

It's the appropriate way

of investigating
blue-on-blue crime.

A way of keeping the
lid on internal leaks, sir.

Of course.

We're the best in
the business, sir.

I think we can sort this
thing out pretty quickly.

I'll open up Witness
Protection to your team.

Thank you, sir.

There's a D.I. in AC-9.

He's your man.
You'll second him.

As you wish, sir.

Whatever it takes to nail
those bastards, right, Ted?

Absolutely. Thank you, sir.

Thought you
could do with a lift.

Thanks.

Uh, don't go.

Is there something I can do?

It's me, actually.

So far I haven't done anything

towards your
professional development.

Well, you've had
a lot on your plate.

So... Why missing persons?

Um, well, it's challenging
detective work.

Plus, when you do find them,

it's massively
rewarding emotionally.

Mm. When you find them.

Yeah. It's not so
brilliant when you don't.

So, have you done
much of this before?

A year on a misper
squad at East Mids.

No! No, then you must
know Sally Fordham.

Um...

What?

There isn't anybody by
that name on the squad.

Oh.

Sorry. I'm getting mixed up.

It's been a bit of a rough day.

Do you mind if we pick
this up another time?

- Yeah. No worries.
- Great.

Kate.

Thanks for the tea.

My name is Detective
Inspector Denton,

from 4th Street Station.

I need to talk to somebody
who can give me a list

of all your employees
over the last year.

- Seen D.I. Denton?
- No, sorry.

D.S. Arnott.

Denton's disappeared. Now
she's asking me to meet her.

You suspicious?

I'm not sure. It's
an industrial unit.

A&B Carriage Repairs?

That's the empty repair
garage they used as a front.

Now I'm suspicious.

I'll call in backup.

I know the location. I
can be there in 10 minutes.

If she sees you, then...

We'll hold back
till you pocket-dial.

Don't blow my cover.

I won't.

But if anything doesn't
feel right, you call.

Received.

Boss.

You took your time, didn't you?

Sorry, I...

Christ's sake. It's
'round the back.

Isn't this place part of

the Major Violent
Crime investigation?

I started ringing garages to
see if any of their employees

fitted the description
of Carly's boyfriend

and started acting suspiciously

around about the time
of the disappearance.

This place came up as disused

but cross-checked with
the MVC investigation.

Aren't they
protecting the scene?

Forensics have finished.
They've released it.

Ma'am, is this a good idea,

what with AC-12's
investigation into the ambush?

Oh!

Do I look like I was
born yesterday?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

No? Brand-new D.C., doesn't
care that I'm under investigation?

Wants to be my new best friend?

- I'm just trying to get along.
- Yeah?

What have I told you
about being honest with me?

I hate liars.

D.S. Arnott. AC-12.

Boss...

People have underestimated
me my whole life.

Absolutely. It's fine.

Nearly done.

I'll be there in 10. Promise.

Hi. 8:30 okay for
tomorrow's briefing?

Look, Jo, the
Hargreaves interview,

the whole thing,
this isn't working.

- You're firing me?
- No.

You know that's more
hassle than it's worth.

You're bringing someone else in.

Why?

You have to ask? Seriously?

Can you talk?

What's there to say?

Everyone makes
mistakes sometimes.

No way did Kate mess up.

We underestimated her.

I've let you down, sir.

Don't talk rubbish.

D.I. Denton doesn't know
the half we've got on her.

That call to the hospital.
Now the stuff with the garage.

Steve, I want you to
contact Denton and her rep.

Tell her I want her
in here on a Reg 15.

Any prevarication,
you arrest her.

I'm telling you,

she'll be wishing she
never messed with you

by the time we're
through with her.

Sir.

Sure you're okay?

Wounded pride, that's all.

I'll give you a lift home.

Thanks, but it's best you don't.

How'd it go with
Georgia's parents?

It went.

Hey.

Why didn't you tell me
she was your partner?

You were feeling
bad enough already.

One thing the other
police officer said...

They said, me being
the only witness,

chances were Joe planned
to kill me afterwards.

You and your
partner saved my life.

Suppose.

Had you been together
long, you and her?

AC-12 interview
with D.I. Denton,

in the presence of D.I. Royal,

by Superintendent Hastings,
D.S. Arnott, and D.C. Fleming.

D.I. Denton, did you
assault D.C. Fleming?

Sorry, sir, you'll
have to help me.

Who's D.C. Fleming?

For the purposes of the tape,
I am indicating D.C. Fleming.

I'm confused, sir.
That's D.C. Foster.

The officer known
to you as Foster.

Did you assault her? Yes or no?

- No.
- You didn't strike her?

There was an altercation
that got a little bit physical.

For the tape, I note that
D.C. Foster... sorry, Fleming...

Shows no significant injuries.

You in the habit of assaulting
people, D.I. Denton?

No.

- Have you ever assaulted anyone?
- No.

Did you assault Lorna Barrett,
your next-door neighbor?

No.

She gave a statement
alleging you did.

I'll read from it.

"Lindsay Denton struck me

across the side of
the head with a bottle.

Then she beat my head
against the floor repeatedly."

Lorna Barrett's an
unreliable witness.

She's making a
vexatious complaint.

I interviewed Lorna Barrett.

She provided a coherent
account of the assault,

had injuries consistent
with her version of events,

and accurately described
you as the assailant.

There's a witness to my
relationship with Miss Barrett.

She's in this room right now.

Shall I call you
Foster or Fleming?

Fleming.

Miss Barrett played
loud music late at night.

- Can you confirm that?
- Yes.

And did I respond in a
potentially aggressive fashion

to Miss Barrett's
antisocial behavior?

No.

Miss Barrett's allegations

represent a history
of antisocial conduct,

who you might have been
taken in by, D.S. Arnott,

though she doesn't
appear to be your type.

I think we should revisit the
events of 5th of September.

D.I. Denton has already provided
a comprehensive statement

and interview in this regard.

Yes, as a witness.

These matters will now be
addressed under the terms

of the Regulation 15 notice
you've just been served.

D.S. Arnott.

You've seen this
illustration before.

Document five in your folders.

It shows the location
of the safe house...

12 St. James' Close...

The route taken by the convoy,
the location of the ambush

which led to the
deaths of D.S. Akers,

Sergeant Wallis,
and P.C. Butler.

It also shows the location
of 4th Street Station,

which D.I. Denton has claimed

was the intended
destination that night.

D.I. Denton... This is
now your opportunity

to amend or clarify
your previous statement.

I've got nothing to add.

D.I. Denton has nothing to add.

There is one specific point

we'd like to explore
in more depth with you,

and that is the route.

This is an excerpt

from the first interview
with D.I. Denton.

For the tape, a transcript
will appear on screen.

This back route,

it would lead to
4th Street Station,

but only if you'd continued
along Crown Avenue.

The vehicles turned
left into Long Lane.

The... The decision

appeared to make
sense at the time.

There were roadworks
on Crown Avenue, um,

with temporary traffic signals
controlling a single lane.

It was a potential holdup

that would have
left us vulnerable.

There were no roadworks
on Crown Avenue that night.

Works had been
completed the day before.

I wasn't aware.

You didn't make
a point of getting

up-to-date travel information?

No.

D.I. Denton's service
vehicle is fitted

with a Type-60 Travel System.

I'm familiar with this
system, and so is D.I. Denton.

I've been a passenger
in said vehicle

and observed D.I. Denton
operate this system faultlessly.

The TS-60 provides

instantaneous traffic
and roadworks information

relating to the chosen route.

The service vehicle
driven by D.I. Denton

on the night of the ambush
was also fitted with the TS-60.

This system was in operation
on the night of September 5th

and would have
advised D.I. Denton

there were no longer
roadworks on Crown Avenue.

You drove them straight
into that ambush, didn't you?

It was no accident, was it?

I genuinely believed
that there were roadworks.

In the stress of the situation,

I didn't even look at the
information on the satnav.

I strenuously deny

any involvement in
setting up the ambush.

Three of our own...
Three of your own...

In the morgue because
of you, D.I. Denton.

- Make that four.
- Yes.

D.C. Georgia Trotman.

Killed attempting to
protect the life of the witness

who was the target
of that ambush.

D.I. Denton has
absolutely no connection

to the tragic death
of D.C. Trotman.

You'll kindly keep your
counsel till we're said and done.

The witness survived the ambush
and was receiving treatment

when there was a second,
successful attempt on his life.

D.I. Denton was observed
making a phone call

from a public telephone box

approximately 15 minutes
prior to the witness' death.

Why did you use a phone box?

I didn't want the call
appearing in my phone history.

Yeah, we get that, D.I.
Denton. Why didn't you?

It was an impulse. I
knew it was inadvisable.

Said call was identified

with the number of the
hospital switchboard.

It was put through to
the intensive care unit

where the witness
was being treated.

The member of
staff who took the call

has provided a statement
that the female caller

asked for Staff Nurse
Tindall by name,

Staff Nurse Tindall being
the intensive care nurse

blackmailed into furnishing
access to the witness.

Who made that call, D.I. Denton?

- Not me.
- I saw you make that call.

I'm not denying making a call.

The witness was the only
person who could verify

that I had nothing to do
with setting up the ambush.

I'd heard rumors that he was
about to regain consciousness,

and I wanted to find
out if they were true.

How come you knew
the name of the nurse...

The very same nurse who
was involved in killing him?

I didn't.

I hung up when
they put me through.

I... I realized it was
a stupid thing to do.

I wasn't thinking.

You expect us to believe that?

If I had conspired
in the murder...

Which you didn't.

Why on earth would I have
made a call at that exact time?

It would only incriminate me.

It does.

Funny, that.

I'm sure you've
seen this e-fit before.

Who is that man?

I've never seen
him before in my life.

He was at the hospital

about to kill the witness
and D.C. Trotman

at exactly the same time
you made your phone call.

D.S. Arnott, what's your
theory on why I'd make that call?

It was a signal.

Or you got cold feet,
tried to call off the murder.

I'm as aware as you all
are that it isn't possible

to trace a call within an
internal telephone network.

All you can do is
identify the number

dialed from the call box

as being that of the
hospital switchboard.

And I admit to that part.

After that, all you have
is the vague evidence

from somebody who
can't be sure who called,

what they said, or why.

I deny that it was me who
asked to speak to the nurse.

That your final answer?

Hmm.

D.C. Fleming.

D.I. Denton text-messaged
me to attend a meeting

at the Canalside
Industrial Estate,

purporting to be in
connection with a breakthrough

in a missing persons inquiry.

The specific location
given by D.I. Denton

was a unit formerly belonging
to A&B Carriage Repairs.

This disused unit was a
front for individuals connected

with the 5th of
September ambush.

What was your
connection, D.I. Denton?

There's no connection to me.

I went there following a lead

on my investigation
into the disappearance

of a 15-year-old girl.

The fact that it had
gone out of business

and was already connected
to an ongoing investigation,

these facts only
added to my suspicions.

Yes, but instead of
following your suspicions,

you assault D.C. Fleming.

- I was emotional, sir.
- Why?

I imagined what it must
have been like for that girl

if she'd been
abducted to that place.

I was frustrated with the case.

And I was angry with
D.C. Fleming's lies.

Lies, yes. You don't like being
lied to, do you, D.I. Denton?

The fact of the matter
is, neither do we.

D.I. Denton, I'm arresting you

for conspiracy to murder
a protected witness.

State the grounds.

You do not have
to say anything...

Under Code "G" of the Police
and Criminal Evidence Act,

state the grounds.

Why are you arresting me?

As the arresting
officer, I submit...

One, you're the sole
survivor of an ambush

you had the means of setting up.

Two, you made a phone call...

And freely admit that
you made a phone call...

To the hospital, after which
two people were murdered.

Regarding the Police
and Criminal Evidence Act,

I note subsection
5C(1), C(2), E and F,

and I'm sure you're very
familiar with those terms.

Lindsay Denton, you do
not have to say anything.

However, you may
harm your defense

if you fail to mention
when questioned

something you
later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be used in evidence.

I would like to say something.

Keep the tape running.

Superintendent Hastings,

I have in my possession
certain financial records

pertaining to you.

How the hell did you get these?

The document requests
were signed off by an officer

of chief superintendent rank.

Anything I say may
be used in evidence.

That works both ways, sir.

Sir, D.I. Denton has asked
that the tape be left running.

She's got a right to be heard.

Without going into details,

the records show that
Superintendent Hastings

is in considerable
financial difficulties.

These have
absolutely no relevance

to the case against
you, D.I. Denton.

I'm reading from a
transcript of our first interview.

"Superintendent Hastings...

'Our strongest supposition
is that criminal interests

attempted to
assassinate the witness

to prevent him testifying.

Those interests would
pay a pretty penny

for an inside man or woman.

Any officer in the
kind of financial mess

you're in, D.I. Denton, is
honor-bound to declare it,

on account of
vulnerability to bribery.'"

Have you declared
your situation, sir?

Sir?

No.

No.

D.S. Arnott.

I'd like you to view
these photographs.

Do you recognize the location?

Yeah.

This is the home,
under protective custody,

of Staff Nurse Claire Tindall.

You interviewed
her in connection

with events at the hospital.

- There are more photos.
- How did you get these?

For the tape, the images
show D.S. Arnott returning

to Staff Nurse Tindall's home.

And he's later photographed
in an upstairs bedroom with her.

What was the purpose
of your return visit?

Um...

I'm sure you took notes
of the conversation.

May we hear them?

No notes, then?

I'm sure you're aware...
Or perhaps you're not,

but I hope that
Superintendent Hastings is...

That inappropriate relations
with a witness is a breach of

the England and Wales Police
Conduct Regulations 2008.

I know the regs.

Were you coaching
Staff Nurse Tindall

to corroborate the
allegations against me

regarding the call
to the hospital?

- I don't have to.
- No?

I'd say you're in desperate need

of someone being able
to identify me as the caller.

Was Staff Nurse Tindall
able to do that for you?

For the tape, D.S.
Arnott's not forthcoming.

- No.
- No, she wasn't able?

She wasn't able.

Was she able to state
any relationship with me?

No.

We've established that you
know the witness better than most.

Is she likely to lie?

No.

If I was connected,
she'd say, wouldn't she?

Yes.

D.S. Arnott, you
know a suspect's

three incriminating criteria.

Motive, opportunity, means.

Motive. I had none.

Why on earth would I
want to kill fellow officers?

Opportunity. I had none.

I only found out
about the witness

in a phone call one
hour before the ambush.

Means. I had none.

I've never worked serious crime.

I don't have the
criminal connections

to be able to
conspire in an ambush.

D.C. Fleming.

Is this your mobile phone?

- Yes.
- Please speak up for the tape.

Yes.

I came into possession
of this mobile phone

during our altercation at the
Canalside Industrial Estate,

is that correct?

Yeah. You stole it from me.

Your call history makes
for very interesting reading.

Significant people
at significant times.

Stealing is against the law.

My bad.

Let's save the rest of this
conversation for another time.

Does that suit you, Kate?

Interview terminated.

Show's over.

Steve, you hold her here.

Kate, you organize the custody.

The best I can do
for you now, Lindsay,

is find you a good solicitor.

AC-12 are bringing
in an officer.

She works at 4th Street Station,

so, ideally, somewhere
she's not known.

We'll fax over the paperwork
for charging. Thanks.

They've handed over
the witness protection files.

Let's get cracking. I want
this place locked down.

Access by named personnel only.

Keep an eye on
her. Shut the door.

Not one piece of paper is
gonna leave this building

without my
approval in triplicate.

Thank you.

Good man.

Mother of God.

The protected witness.

The wee gobshite
this was all about.

Christ.

We need to start over.

Call your wives, your husbands,

your boyfriends,
your girlfriends.

No one is leaving the premises
till we have sifted through

every single piece
of information.

What was in the
Witness Protection files?

I saw the reaction.
Was it the witness?

Oh, my God. Was it
someone you knew?

I can't discuss this.

How can you let
this happen to me

when you know that
there's so much more to it?

Let's go.

D.S. Arnott, D.I. Denton.

You okay to book her in for me?

Lindsay Denton, I'm
satisfied your arrest is lawful.

I'm authorizing your
detention at this police station

so that we can
secure and preserve

evidence of the investigation,

and to obtain evidence from you.

I'm innocent. You know I am.
