REPORTER: Police are now hunting
a serial rapist

after a third woman
was attacked last night

by the West Willow Canal.

As with previous assaults,

the victim was grabbed from
behind by a masked assailant.

[ Siren wailing ]

We´re appealing to women
in the area just to take care.

You know, if they´re traveling,
then travel in twos and threes.

Take all the precautions
that they need.

If you´re calling a cab,
then call a licensed cab.

Multiple entrances and exits
all the way along the towpath.

There´s no really confident way

of placing
whether our attacker lay and hid

or whether it was a spur-
of-the-moment kind of thing.

Helped by the fact
that there´s absolutely --

well, virtually no CCTV footage
available for the site,

which would probably give
the reason

why the attacker
chose this particular spot.

Yeah.

And we´ve got two other rapes
in a mile-and-a-half radius

with an assailant
who had a certain amount

of forensic knowledge

´cause he´s wearing a balaclava
and gloves each time.

[ Police radio chatter ]

I need a file on
George Callaghan, done for rape.

Archive nine.

That´s the file.

Amazing.
Thanks, Martin.

You´re a genius, Martin.
Thanks very much.

This is sex offender and
serial rapist, George Callaghan.

Recently released from prison

after serving 10 years
of a 16-year sentence for rape.

[ Sighs ]

I don´t know.
I think it could be this guy.

You know?

M.O.´s the same -- approaching
the victims from behind,

strangling them
before he rapes them.

Those two were frenzied attacks.

This was premeditated.

Plus, he´s got CCTV on his house

as part
of his license conditions.

He´s had 10 years to work
on improving his technique,

so to speak, you know?

And, to be fair, if we´re
doing our jobs properly,

we have to allow him
to improve his character, Jack.

I don´t know.

-Yeah?
-Hmm.

But worth checking?

-Always.
-Always.

How are you, George?

Yeah, yeah.

As well as can be expected,
I suppose.

-Keeping well?
-Yeah, yeah.

-Keeping out of trouble?
-Yeah, try to.

Head down, trousers up, yeah?

Oh, yeah.
Yeah.

-Good boy.
-[ Chuckles ]

Where were you last night?

I was home.

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

-All night?
-Yeah, yeah.

I got home from work, and,
yeah, I was at home all night.

-Watched the England game.
-Oh, yeah?

Yeah, yeah.

-What was the score?
-2-nil.

Who scored?

Well, Gerrard scored at the end,
didn´t he?

-Great goal.
-Yeah, great goal.

Yeah.

Did you see the TV,
the news, afterwards?

Uh, no.
I don´t really watch the news.

No?

Because what´s happened, really,

is there´s a rapist
on the loose.

Yeah, I know about that.

Three victims, so far.

-Yeah, I know.
-Still haven´t found him.

-God knows where he could be.
-Mm.

Did you do it?

No, I didn´t do it.

No, I didn´t do it.

WESTON:
Well, where were you last night?

I was in the house.

I was watching the game.
Honest, I was.

I was in the house,
watching the game.

I didn´t go out.

You´ve got CCTV
outside the house.

I didn´t go out.

Can´t get onto the server!

All right?

Hey.

-She okay?
-[ Sighs ]

Just grim.
Man, I hate doing that.

I managed to get her
to agree to the forensic exam,

so we´ve got our DNA samples,

but she doesn´t want
to take it any further.

So I think
that´s all we´re gonna get.

Ah.
Victim details?

Um, her name´s Diane Ackerman.

-Fuck.
-Chief Superintendent´s

wife´s name is Diane Ackerman.

WESTON:
Are you sure it´s her?

Well, shit, I didn´t ask her
her husband´s name,

but she is married.

-Hold that thought.
-Um...

Well, I guess that would explain

why she doesn´t want it
to go any further.

Maybe she doesn´t want this

being dragged
all over the police station

where her husband works.

[ Sighs ]

I will look after her,
and we´ll make sure

that she´s treated with dignity,
obviously, sir.

What´s going on?

STEELE: I don´t know.
He just...

When did he get here?

He turned up
a couple of minutes ago.

WESTON: Fuck, man.

Have they been in there
for ages?

BELLAMY: I´m going to make this
my priority, obviously.

And Detective Constable Steele
will go down now

and take a statement
from Mrs. Ackerman.

Um, you know, I hope
that you don´t feel between you

that she´s under duress
to give her statement

just because she´s your wife,
sir.

No, not at all.
It´s about control.

The rape victim
has to be in control.

Okay.

-Well, again, you know --
-I know. Thank you.

-Nice to see you.
-Thank you, sir.

STEELE: And at any point,
either after you left work --

I´m not entirely sure
of the distances involved yet.

So either after you left work
or when you left the tube

and walked along the canal,
did you...

You weren´t followed at all?

Or notice anything like that?

I didn´t notice anything.

No, I -- No.

No.

STEELE:
And in that bar --

-He just came out from behind.
-Okay.

I didn´t hear anything.

-I didn´t see anything.
-Okay.

And in the bar
when you went for a drink,

before you got on the tube,
you went there alone?

Mm-hmm.
Yeah.

Um...I don´t --

I don´t want to seem rude
or anything,

but do you often go out
and drink alone?

I just went for a drink.

It´s not that weird.

And where was your husband
last night?

Um, he was at a conference.

So he was staying away
in a hotel.

[ Breathes deeply ]

WESTON: [ Knocking ]
Boss?

BELLAMY: Yep.

WESTON: Hi.

Obviously,
under the normal circumstances,

I´d do the usual background
checks on Diane Ackerman.

-Is that something...
-Proceed as normal, obviously.

Okay.

You okay?

BELLAMY: All good.

-[ Keyboard clacking ]
-[ Breathes deeply ]

Just some initial stuff
from the background checks.

Um...

A callout was made recently
to the Ackermans´ address

over a domestic incident.

Um, Superintendent Ackerman

apparently told the constables
to get lost

while Diane apologized profusely
for wasting their time.

She´s also --
She´s got a bruise apparently

that predates the rape.

-What do you think?
-[ Breathes deeply ]

Okay.
Do you know what?

I think I´m gonna pop down
and join Charlie.

So sorry to interrupt.

Diane, my God,

I wish these were different
circumstances, my friend.

Listen, carry on, okay?

STEELE:
Okay, let´s carry on.

DIANE: He came out
from behind me...

...with a balaclava on.

And he had gloves on.

[ Breathes deeply ]

[ Voice breaking ]
And he really, really,

really strangled me.

He really strangled me.

And then I woke up, and...

...I didn´t have
any underwear on.

[ Sobs ]

I don´t know
what happened to my underwear.

[ Crying ]

WESTON: How´s Diane?

-You okay?
-STEELE: I don´t know.

I just feel like
she´s not telling us something.

-What do you mean?
-STEELE: [ Sighs ]

I don´t know.

I find it very, very odd that
she was sat there for, what,

a couple of hours
drinking on her own?

Did she say
how much she had to drink?

Uh...

She said
she had a couple of glasses?

Yeah.
A couple glasses.

I´ve got the CCTV footage
from outside the pub

if you want
to have a look at it.

She looks pretty wobbly.

STEELE:
She looks hammered.

Yeah. She wanders up here,
and then, I mean...

BELLAMY: Maybe she´s just
on tranquilizers or something.

It looks like it, doesn´t it?

Listen,
I did a quick check of the pub.

I got these two receipts.

And she had
her two glasses of wine.

BELLAMY: Mm-hmm.

And then she also had
a full bottle to herself.

A whole nother bottle?

And I think that would floor

even the heartiest
of Irish drinker.

That´s more than two glasses,
isn´t it?

-You should know.
-Right.

So, why is she lying about that?

The only reason that we need to
know about your drinking pattern

is because if a rapist alleges

that you gave consent
to have sex with him, okay?

-I didn´t give --
-If he did,

if you had had a few drinks,
there is a possibility

that you weren´t able
to give consent, all right?

-That´s why we´re asking.
-I don´t know. Okay?

You know
how much I had to drink.

You tell me
how much I had to drink.

Okay, I was a little pissed.

Who doesn´t like
to have a drink?

Completely.
I totally agree with you.

But, ultimately, we´re here
to find this guy.

-Okay?
-WESTON: Boss.

I´m really sorry to interrupt.

The DNA stuff is in
from the referral center.

There´s nothing useful
taken from the clothing

or from Diane herself other than
from the marks on her throat,

which belong
to a guy called Andrew Bourne,

who runs an accountancy firm
that Diane works for.

We have his DNA on file

because of a drunk-driving
incident six months ago.

Oh, really?
Okay.

Do you think
maybe Andrew has anything to do

with that bruise on her face?

Because I know it´s not from
yesterday. It´s a bit older.

She said she fell in the bath,
but she didn´t.

Why don´t we just ask her?

No, Jack.
We´re not just going to ask her.

She´s a victim.
We´re going to look after her.

This is like Day 1.
You understand that stuff.

The person I need to speak to,
okay, is this Andrew...

-Bourne.
-...Bourne guy.

And --
Take her into the witness suite.

Look after her, please, guys.

[ Door opens, closes ]

She´s shitting herself
because of who she is.

[ Siren wailing ]

Mr. Bourne, how did
Diane come to work for you?

BOURNE: I´ve known her
a long, long time.

Um...

I´ve known her husband, Howard,
since university.

We used to play
in the same rugby team.

God, I mean,
she was looking for a job.

I was looking
for a personal assistant.

It seemed to be a perfect fit.

And could I ask you
what you were doing last night?

Um, I was working.

Diane left at some point
in the late evening.

And then I stayed at home,
alone.

You made several phone calls
to Diane

-after she left the office.
-Yeah.

WESTON: Why were you so anxious
to get in touch with her?

-I was concerned for her.
-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

She really has not been...

WESTON: 11, 12.
12 calls.

Okay.
Look.

As I say, I was
very, very concerned for her.

She really
hasn´t been herself lately.

This is another photo taken
of Diane yesterday morning.

What the photo doesn´t show,
Mr. Bourne,

is that we have your DNA
on her neck.

Can you explain
why that might be there?

[ Sighs ]
Okay.

I´m -- I´m really not proud of
this, but I tried to kiss her.

Right, and obviously, I´ve
misinterpreted something there,

but that is all, and I would
never, ever hurt her.

That doesn´t look like
a love bite to me, sir.

BOURNE: Okay, so, if you want
to be interrogating someone,

I suggest that you interrogate
her husband, Howard,

okay, because he´s the one who
hits his wife around, not me.

Okay, that´s
a very serious allegation

against a very senior member
of the police.

Yep, and, as I say, I suggest

that you interrogate Howard,
okay?

Because
your Chief Superintendent

is the one who´s been
slapping his wife around.

WESTON:
Am I getting this straight?

Yeah, absolutely.

You know you´re being recorded
saying this?

I know how it looks and how it
sounds, but that is the truth.

Do you want to know
how controlling he is?

Right, Diane has her salary
that I pay her

paid directly
into his bank account.

She doesn´t have
any of her own bank cards, okay?

He pays her an allowance,
in cash, that she has each week.

Okay? That gives you an idea
of the sort of person he is.

I hope you can back this up,
because the police

will come down hard on you
for this if you´re wrong.

[ Knocking ]

Charlie.

I´ve got the Chief Super´s
last credit-card statement.

-Pop the door.
-Yeah.

Um, there´s a transaction
from about a week ago

with a locksmith´s.

I gave them a call.

They said they were called out

by a female
matching Diane´s description

to change all of the locks
in the Ackermans´ house.

She must be terrified of him.

Yeah.

Yeah, it does look like
Andrew Bourne´s allegations

might have legs.

Do you know what, Charlie?
Re-interview Diane Ackerman.

Hello.

Can you tell me a bit about
your relationship with Andrew?

It´s fine.
It´s good.

The report came back

and said that there was
his DNA on your neck.

That´s why I´m asking.

[ Sighs ]
Okay.

Um...

Yeah, he made a pass at me
yesterday, okay?

I pushed him away.
That was it.

Nothing happened.

STEELE: Yesterday
whilst you were at work?

Yes.

-Did you argue about it?
-No, we didn´t argue about it.

I just left, okay?

I don´t know what this has got
to do with -- with...

STEELE:
Has it ever happened before?

No.

Do you have a credit card,
Diane?

Debit card?

Bank account?

Where do your wages get paid to?

Do they get paid directly
into your husband´s account?

Does he have
all of your money, then,

and, what, pay you an allowance?

Because that´s not normal.

That´s
absolutely controlling behavior.

Yeah.

Yeah, he is controlling.
[ Breathes deeply ]

He, um...

is always criticizing me

and saying I should dress
in a different way

and speak in a different way.

I think he´d quite like it

if I was
a different person altogether.

But the question is whether
she´s gonna nail Ackerman.

-She has to.
-Well, she has to, but I just...

It´s so sensitive.

You know, you start
investigating your superiors...

STEELE: Look at her.
Look.

WESTON:
All we can do is support her.

BELLAMY:
So, gossip corner.

Hi.

Let me guess the headlines
of this conversation --

Chief Super bashes wife.

Am I right?

Look, this is
a rape investigation.

We are going to look

at who raped Diane Ackerman
first, okay,

before we tackle
if Diane Ackerman

-is a victim of domestic abuse.
-You´re gonna --

Let´s do it in that --
Let´s do it in that order.

I need discretion, guys.

Yeah, we´re not gonna talk
with anyone else,

but it´s worth talking about
between the three of us.

-Keep it within us three.
-Yeah?

To anyone else, talk about
what was on telly last night

or something like that.

Or who you´re fucking, Jack.

-How about that?
-No one, as usual.

WESTON: George Callaghan
is living with this woman --

Annette Walker.

This is the CCTV footage

taken from outside
Annette´s house last night.

The relationship
between George and Annette

blossomed after Annette
contacted George in prison

while he was still
serving his sentence.

He moved in with her almost
as soon as he was released.

Must have been attracted
to his sweet nature.

She leaves the house
at 7:42 p.m. in her car

to visit and feed
her sick mother, Evelyn.

At 10:00 p.m.,
George´s bedroom light goes out.

Other ins and outs apart from
the front door and the garage

are the back door, which leads
onto an enclosed garden.

That enclosed garden backs
onto two adjoining gardens.

So there is absolutely
no way out the back.

[ Door opens ]

-[ Door closes ]
-Hi.

Sorry for keeping you waiting.
Here´s your coffee.

-Thank you.
-Please take a seat.

Thanks.

WESTON: I´m sorry
to have dragged you in

at such short notice.

I mean,
I can´t apologize enough.

Obviously you know
that we have been speaking

with George Callaghan.

You´re in a relationship
with George.

Yes. He lives with me.
He´s my partner.

Fantastic.

So, have you arrested George?

No. George is just helping us
with our inquiries.

Is it about that thing

that happened last night
by the canal?

Do you know what?
To be honest, I can´t really go

into too much detail about it.

´Cause they said on the news...

You know, people automatically
jump to conclusions

because of his past,
but, you know, he´s changed,

and he should be allowed
to move on...

which is only fair, I think.

-WESTON: Absolutely.
-Mm.

I couldn´t put it better myself.

Yeah.
[ Chuckles ]

I just have a few
very quick minor questions.

Where was George last night?

He was with me.

We were just in last night
watching telly,

apart from when I had
to go out and see my mum.

But George stayed in.

And I had the car,

so he couldn´t have
gone anywhere, anyway.

Anyway, you should be able
to check all this on CCTV.

You lot put it up
to monitor him. [ Chuckles ]

How long you been
going out with Annette?

I´d say about 18 months.

She know all about all your...

-Yeah.
-...dirty laundry?

Yeah, yeah.

There´s no secrets
between me and Annette.

Good.
Do you love her?

-Yeah, I do.
-She love you?

[ Breathes deeply ]
Yeah, I think so.

-Hope so.
-Yeah, hope so.

Put up with me, she must do.
[ Chuckles ]

From kind of a rehabilitation
point of view, what happened?

What, inside?
Uh...

Did you find God?

No.
I found a great therapist.

Yeah, my head doctor.
He sorted me out.

You know,
the first couple of years

were the hardest for both of us,
I think.

You know?
It´s hard to admit what you did.

And to then start to kind of
address how you feel about it.

And George and Annette´s
stories -- They´re airtight.

Corroborate everything that
we´ve seen of the CCTV stuff.

But just the way the two of them
acted in the interview room --

It just kind of freaks me out
a little bit.

She´s too weird.
He´s too kind of smug.

-It just stinks.
-I know, I know.

The problem is, I have
completely run out of time

on Callaghan.
We´ve got to let him out.

WESTON: Don´t.
I´m not...

It´s the clock.

I´ve just spoken to the hotel
holding the ACPO conference

where Chief Superintendent
Ackerman was a delegate.

He had the room overnight and
was supposed to stay overnight,

but he checked out early
and came home,

which contradicts
what he told his wife

and gives him time
to have gotten back here...

and carried out the rape.

I´ll back you up on whatever
you want to do with this.

I´m about to talk this through
with the D.C.I., okay?

Just for me, keep Ackerman´s
name off the suspect board --

for now.

WESTON:
How long do you need?

Half an hour.

[ Door closes ]

STEELE:
That bruise on your face, Diane.

Our medical examiner,
who obviously has already spoken

to you and has had
a look at the photos,

has told us
that it´s not consistent

with a fall in the bath

and that it´s more like
a punch or a slap.

No, I fell in the bath.

STEELE: I´m only going on
what our medical examiner said.

-Did someone hit you?
-No.

-Did Howard hit you?
-No.

No, I fell in the bath.

STEELE: Is he aggressive?
Is he violent?

-[ Sighs ]
-Did he hit you?

-Diane?
-[ Breathes deeply ]

Because I can do something
about that.

-You just have to talk to me.
-[ Sniffles ]

-Yes.
-Yeah?

Okay, okay.

This is just me over here,
but I will always call you.

I will never turn up
out of the blue.

DIANE: I´m not gonna be making a
complaint against Howard, okay?

-You´ve got to understand that.
-Okay.

Well, I think it´s something
that you should think about.

DIANE: It is something
I´ve thought about.

You have no idea
how important his job is to him.

STEELE:
You have my number anyway.

I´m not gonna ask you to do --

DIANE: I don´t want to talk
about that any longer.

STEELE: I just want you
to think about it,

and if you change your mind,
I want you to call me.

-Okay?
-Um, okay.

[ Breathes deeply ]

Martha, come on,
for fuck´s sake.

I have been looking at
the other two rape victims.

And both of them

reported incidents
of domestic abuse to the police.

So could someone
be using our system

-to scout out potential targets?
-What are you trying to say?

I mean, we already know that the
attacker was forensically aware.

Could our rapist be a copper?

WESTON:
That´s a good question.

Diane´s confirmed that the
Chief Super´s been hitting her

and that bruise on her face
is from him.

-Will she go to court?
-No, there´s absolutely no way.

Okay. I´ve got this.
Thank you.

Sir, apologies for the delay.

So...

what´s this all about?

Chief Superintendent,

I do need to ask you
where you were last night.

I was at a conference,
but I came home early.

It was a drinking session,

and I didn´t really fancy it.

Can you corroborate that, sir?

HOWARD:
No, I´m afraid not.

My wife and I are spending
some time apart at the moment,

and I am staying with a friend.

So I was at his flat.

9 Willow Mansions.

Don´t be offended, but...

I do need to know if you can
corroborate where you were

at the time of the rape.

I´m not offended at all,
but sadly, no, I can´t.

I was on my own at home,
I´m sorry to say.

WESTON: Oh, Boss.

How did it go with Ackerman?

Polite, professional.
Exactly what you´d expect.

But you know -- Still doesn´t
have an alibi for last night,

Actually, he may not need one.

Andrew Bourne
left Walbrook Road Tube Station

at 8:42 p.m. last night.

That´s the tube station

that´s closest
to Diane Ackerman´s house,

which puts him in the area
shortly before the rape.

BELLAMY: Ah.
And what have we got?

Anything to link him
to the other two rapes?

Well, he has the same height
and build as the attacker,

and he also goes to the same gym

as one
of the previous two victims.

Yeah, and let´s face it.

He is a man that has just been
rejected, so we´ve got a motive.

I think we´ve got plenty
to bring him in

and search his house, okay?

Okay.

[ Turn signal clicking ]

[ Police radio chatter ]

Andrew Bourne.
We´ve met before.

I´m Detective Sergeant
Jack Weston.

I´m arresting you
on the suspicion

of three counts of rape.

-You´re not serious?
-I´m also arresting you

for driving without a license.

You do not have to say anything,
though it may harm your defense

if you fail to mention,
when questioned, something

that you later rely on in court.

-You´re serious?
-Do you understand?

I understand, but --
You´re serious?

Now, under the Police
and Criminal Evidence Act,

I´m gonna search your premises
and your vehicle.

Anything in your vehicle
I should know about?

No.

OFFICER:
Just calm down, sir.

BOURNE:
Yeah, I´m perfectly calm!

I just want to know
what this is about.

Are you going away somewhere?

BOURNE: For a few days.
Is that a crime?

WESTON:
Okay, let´s get Mr. Bourne

taken back to the station.

Let´s get a low loader here

to do a full forensic lift
on the vehicle

and bring it
back to the station.

-Okay, sir. Thank you.
-Okay? You got it?

Okay.
Let´s hurry on this one.

Got Andrew Bourne.

Cheeky bastard
was doing a runner.

I got the luggage in his boot.

I gonna go down and supervise
forensics with the car.

Diane´s still insistent
it wasn´t him.

Like, acts like
she knows it wasn´t him.

Wait. No.
She doesn´t know

because it was dark,
the attacker was masked,

and she´d had a bit to drink.
Maybe she made a mistake.

Okay?

Sorry. I´m actually struggling
to understand why I´m here.

-Going somewhere, were you?
-[ Sighs ]

Look, I-I´ve got
a bag in the car

because I´m going away
for a couple of days.

-Yes, absolutely.
-Where are you going?

I´m going to see my mother.

If you´d like --
you know what --

you can phone her, right,
and then she´ll tell you --

you know what --
I arranged that weeks ago.

Hmm.
Okay.

We´ve been checking your travel
records on your Oyster card,

and apparently you exited
an hour before the attack

at Walbrook Road Tube,

which is the nearest tube
to Diane´s house.

Can you explain that?

You know what? I would like
to speak to a solicitor, please.

-Where were the gloves found?
-Thanks.

-Were they found in the bag?
-Sarge.

You found anything useful?

The boss is in
with Andrew Bourne right now.

Worth the wait.
Got the gloves.

Listen, I reckon
this could be our guy.

STEELE: Boss.

Um...

Chief Super Ackerman´s
got corroborated alibis

for the two other rapes.

Holy God!

Oh, I feel like doing
a little dance on the spot.

There´s still
the insignificant matter

of him knocking his wife about.

Not forgotten, Charlie.

Listen,
focus on Andrew Bourne´s alibis

for the first two rapes, okay?

I mean, you never know.

We might find three victims´ DNA

on those fancy leather gloves
of his.

STEELE:
I was looking through the notes

from Andrew´s
original interview.

-Tell me.
-He said all that stuff

about Diane
not having a bank account,

not having credit cards.

I rang her, and she swears that
she never discussed it with him.

But I assume that she works off
a laptop or a P.C.

in his house,
where his office is.

So if you don´t mind, I´d like
to go and join the search team

to see
if I can get hold of that.

Yeah, go, go.
Good.

I will not be long.

Yeah.
I´ll tell her now.

Yeah.

Boss.

Andrew Bourne´s solicitor
has just arrived.

God forbid
I should have a cup of tea.

Okay.
If that´s --

-I think you should.
-Okay.

I´d like to make a statement,
please.

Um, I did leave my house
last night

in order to travel
to Diane and Howard´s house

in order to apologize
for having made a pass at her

and hopefully
to patch things up.

And I knocked on the door
a number of times,

and there was no answer,
and that was it.

I went home.

Mr. Bourne, we have recovered
a pair of black gloves

from a toolbox
in the back of your car.

Can you explain
why they´re there?

Uh...

Um...

If it´s --
If it´s the pair of gloves

that I´m thinking about,

I-I think I used them maybe once
to perhaps change --

I think I changed the spare tire
with them.

Really? It´s just that they´re
a very smart pair of gloves

to change a tire with.

They were what I had to hand.
That´s it.

I don´t know
what else I can say.

I really don´t.

STEELE: I´ve had a look
through Bourne´s laptop,

and Diane did use it
to access her e-mails.

There´s a whole bunch of them

between Chief Super Ackerman
and her which start...

well, as you might expect,
lots of "I´m really sorry,"

"I really miss you,"
"I really love you,"

but once she changes the locks,
he gets really, really nasty.

Sir, I´ve got some e-mails here
that I´d like...

-well, just to read a selection.
-My e-mails?

"Darling, I´m so sorry
for last night."

HOWARD:
They´re for my wife.

But they turn actually
quite nasty pretty quickly.

-"You´re a fucking bitch."
-You got those from my wife?

"You´re pathetic."
"You´re nothing without me."

I mean,
it´s actually quite nasty, sir.

My wife gave you some e-mails.
All right. Thank you.

STEELE: Actually, the tip-off
about your behavior

came from your best friend,
Andrew.

Diane didn´t say
anything about this.

-Andrew?
-Yeah.

Forensic experts
have also had a look

at the bruise on Diane´s face,

and they say
it definitely came from a slap.

And?

-STEELE: And?
-And what?

You can´t prove that was me.

How long have you been
at a friend´s house?

How long
have you been out of your home?

Uh...

-A week.
-A week?

That bruise on her face
is over a week old,

so I assume that
you were there when it happened.

There´s a possibility that
I was there when it happened.

There´s a possibility you were
or you weren´t there?

Yes,
I was there when it happened.

STEELE:
So, how did she get that bruise?

I have no idea.
What do you think?

STEELE:
I just find it quite strange

that you would say
I can´t prove that that´s you.

Well, you can´t, can you?

As opposed to I can´t prove
how that happened.

It´s just a strange...

choice of words, I think.

All right.

Thank you for your supposition.

-Your wife´s afraid of you.
-Really?

Diane´s already revealed
how controlling you are.

HOWARD: Really?

Her wages
are paid into your account.

You control how she dresses,
who she speaks to.

She has a curfew.

-Really?
-Diane´s afraid of you.

She´s so afraid of you

that she´s had the locks changed
to your home.

Has she really?

She has told you all of this?

I hope you really know
what you´re doing.

I really hope you know
what you´re doing.

-Oh, I´ve done my homework.
-How old are you?

-26 1/2, sir.
-Oh, you´re a young girl.

-Proud of it.
-A long way to go.

-I hope so.
-You made a mistake.

You know that, don´t you?

BELLAMY: Well, we´ve all
made mistakes, sir...

I´m not fucking talking to you!

...as CPS have confirmed
that we have enough evidence

to arrest you
for actual bodily harm.

HOWARD: My lawyers will
eat you up and spit you out.

As awkward as this is...

you do not have to say anything,

but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention,

when questioned, something
which you will rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

-Do you understand?
-Of course I understand.

Diane was
so intensely determined

not to take it any further.

I don´t understand
why he didn´t just drop it.

He knew there´d be
lots of gossip in the office

about who the rape victim
was married to,

and I bet he wanted to be the
big fucking showman, you know?

Getting his wife
to make a statement, you know?

Be the big professional copper
in front of all his minions.

Yadda, yadda, yadda.
It´s pathetic.

[ Siren wailing ]

I´ve just got one more question,

and I´ll get out of your hair,
if that´s okay?

Do you know
someone called Beverly?

DIANE:
From off the Internet?

Yeah.

How do you know that?

I promise
I´ll explain all in a second.

Just, can you tell me
anything about her?

Um [Sighs]

Yep, Beverly.

She´s somebody I met on a...

um, forum for domestic abuse.

She has been

in a really horrific situation
with her husband.

You know,
she´s just somebody who´s kind.

STEELE:
How long have you been in touch?

-Four months.
-Okay.

She´s been on a
domestic abuse survivors forum.

Mostly swapping messages
with someone called Beverly.

They´ve been chatting
for about four months.

Diane´s really opened up and
told her absolutely everything.

But a couple of days ago,

Beverly suggests
that they meet last night.

-Really?
-Yeah.

She sent her an e-mail saying,

"Well, let´s swap photos
so we can recognize each other."

Diane sent hers,
and after she did,

Beverly refused
to send one back,

saying that,
"Oh, now I´ve got your photo,

I feel really frumpy."

BELLAMY:
So, Beverly didn´t send a photo.

So, Beverly could be a man.

STEELE:
Plus, Beverly was very specific

that they meet in a café
near the canal.

Sarge.

Yeah?

I got Beverly´s phone number
from Diane.

I tried to call it.
It wouldn´t go through.

The phone company have confirmed
it´s a pay-as-you-go,

which, unusually, is registered.

But the owner
hasn´t topped it up.

Hence why
it´s not going through.

The owner being Annette Walker.

-WESTON: Fuck.
-Callaghan´s girlfriend.

So she´s the one who arranged
to meet Diane last night.

So George Callaghan´s
the rapist.

BELLAMY: I just feel
we´re missing something.

The domestic abuse forum
sent me Beverly´s I.P. address,

which is registered to Annette
and Callaghan´s house.

-Oh, there is more.
-BELLAMY: Tell me.

The other two rape victims have
both been in touch with Beverly.

Okay, so, she leaves alone
not long before the rape,

but we´ve got surveillance,
and the bedroom light is --

Callaghan´s turning
his bedroom light off at 10:00,

so he can´t be
in two places at once.

Right?

Unless he´s got the lights
on a timer.

Unless he´s got his lights
on a timer.

Okay.
Let´s get a search warrant.

-Yeah? Great. Okay.
-Now´s the time. Do it.

[ Police radio chatter ]

WESTON: Okay, here we go.
Game face on.

[ Doorbell rings ]

Do the door, man.

-[ Foot thuds ]
-Okay, let´s go, let´s go.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

OFFICER: Clear.

-Okay, I was right.
-STEELE: Sorry?

We got a timer
on the bedroom lamp.

There´s a doorway
knocked through

from the kitchen to the garage.

He´s climbing through there,
getting in the boot,

-and then she´s driving off.
-WESTON: Fuck.

-[ Cellphone buzzes ]
-Can I get a dog camera, please?

WESTON: Boss?
What have you got?

BELLAMY: The tech team
have been checking out

the domestic abuse website.

-Charlie!
-STEELE: Uh-huh.

BELLAMY: Beverly has arranged
another meeting tonight, Jack.

Have you been
in touch with the victim?

BELLAMY:
No, there´s no number.

Okay, what car
are we looking out for?

Ford Focus -- Lima, Delta, 59,
Uniform, Sierra, Sierra.

Okay.

-[ Tires screeching ]
-Fucker. Come on!

-[ Horn honks ]
-STEELE: Wait.

-Wait. You going left here?
-Yep.

Fuck, that´s it.
That´s her, that´s her.

-Okay, okay, okay. Ready?
-Yeah. Yep.

WESTON: Okay.

-STEELE: Okay, I´m out, I´m out.
-WESTON: Yep.

-STEELE: Annette!
-Annette, where´s George?

-Where´s George?!
-I don´t know!

WESTON: Where´s George?!
For fuck´s sake, tell me!

-Where is he?!
-He´s down there.

-STEELE: What?
-WESTON: He´s down here.

[ Horn honking ]

-STEELE: Where? Where?
-WESTON: Come here!

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Come here! Come here!
You´re nicked!

STEELE: Are you okay?
Are you okay?

George Callaghan,
you´re under arrest.

Do you understand?
Calm down!

STEELE:
Get the balaclava off!

WESTON: I´m arresting you
for attempted rape.

You do not have to say anything,

though it may harm your defense
if you fail to mention anything

you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

-Understand?
-[ Laughs ]

Okay. Get the fucking smile
off your face!

Come on, cuff him!

[ Siren wailing ]

Will you wait with her?
There´s an ambulance coming.

WESTON: Okay.

Grilling them?
What´s the play?

I think that, for now, we should
treat Annette as a victim.

You´re going in
on George Callaghan, right?

Yeah, well, I think he´s
probably gonna implicate her.

We need to release
Andrew Bourne.

-WESTON: Okay.
-BELLAMY: Okay.

Annette, how on earth
have you got yourself into this?

I don´t know.
I mean...

It just...

I wanted to do something.
Of course I did.

I mean, so many times I went
to go and call the police,

and it´s like
he could read my mind

´cause he would always,
like, follow me

and see who I was calling.

Why didn´t you
call the police before?

´Cause he said he...

He said that if I did anything,
that he would know,

and he said that
he would kill me in my sleep.

He said
he´d strangle me in my sleep.

Or he´d do something to my mum.
He´d go ´round to my mum.

And he´d push her down the
stairs or something like that.

So I-I just didn´t know
what to do.

I never knew where he was.

I never knew
what he was gonna do. I mean...

Did you think to try and escape
the situation and leave?

Well, how --
how could I have done that?

[ Sobs ]

[ Sniffles, cries ]

BELLAMY:
Do you want five minutes?

Yeah.

She did as she was told.

She´s fucking weak, isn´t she?

She´s fucking innocent.

She did
exactly what I told her to do.

So you whip her into action.

Make her drive you out.

-Hide you in the boot.
-Mm-hmm.

And then wait.

Don´t give me that bullshit.

Oh?
You think it´s bullshit?

-Yeah.
-Lions and lambs, man, right?

You want to know
all the psychobabble bullshit?

Talk to the fucking doctors.

Talk to the doctors.

I´m not interested.

You want to go poking around
in here?

Fucking go for it, man.

Annette, the thing is, when you
contacted the women initially

through the Internet, of course,
you weren´t passive in that.

I mean, you were doing that.

Yeah, but he made me do it.

It was his idea.

So, you knew what he was going
to do to those women.

No, no, I didn´t.
No.

But then
when I saw it on the news

and I realized
what must have happened,

and I asked him about it,
he denied it.

But I thought, "No, it was him."

But, no, I didn´t know he was
going to keep on and on and on.

Right. Even though
you knew his history?

Oh.

He hadn´t done it
for a long time, had he?

I mean, people...

change, don´t they?

Anyway, I´ve really got to go

because it´s time for me
to see my mum and cook her tea.

-So, you know.
-Annette, that´s fine.

If you give me permission to use
your keys, I can get, um...

No. She wouldn´t like that.
She would not like that.

She´s very particular, my mum,

and she would not like
a stranger coming to her house.

Annette, unfortunately, we´ve
got some more talking to do.

-Sit down, please, Annette.
-No, I´ve got to go

because I´m late anyway.

-Take a seat, please, Annette.
-[ Sighs ]

Can I have the keys, please,
with your permission?

This is fucking ridiculous.

-[ Door closes ]
-How you doing?

He´s smug, proud,
but he´s giving me nothing.

He´s to blame, she was weak.

He forced her to do his bidding.

-Hmm. That´s predictable.
-Hm.

-Mine´s very odd.
-Yeah?

Frankly.

Doesn´t want us to go
near her mum. That´s for sure.

-So first thing we do...
-Search team?

Yeah.
Search team at Mum´s, I´d say.

[ Sirens wailing ]

WESTON:
You´re never gonna believe this.

Search team find
Annette´s mother in the dark,

no heating, no gas,
no electricity,

covered in her own shit, hadn´t
eaten for three or four days.

-STEELE: No.
-She´s been lying to us.

[ Sighs ]

So, Annette,
we´ve been to see your mum.

My goodness.

My dog lives better
than your mum.

That was a shock.

She´s a fucking dirty old cow,
isn´t she?

I thought
you were looking after your mum.

Oh, you really like doing this,
don´t you?

You´re enjoying this?

Getting off on it, yeah?

Do you resent your mum
for having let you go into care?

Is that it?

Is that why you´re treating
your mum as you are now?

-[ Scoffs ]
-No one to look after her?

-Is that it?
-No one said that about me,

did they, when she
was treating me like that.

-No.
-How was she treating you?

[ Scoffs ] She didn´t
want to know, did she?

She was just out with all her...

her boyfriends,
as she liked to call them.

Beating her up, beating me up.

She didn´t care, did she?
She´d rather keep them than me.

And is the fact that you felt

that you were at risk
from the abuse

and that your mother
was being abused --

Has that got anything to do
with the fact

that all of the women
that you contacted --

Oh, for fuck´s sake!

You don´t even know
what you´re talking about.

You´re just talking
a load of shit.

A load of crap.

All of the women
were victims of domestic abuse.

Well, they had a choice,
didn´t they?

They didn´t have to stay
with men like that, did they?

They don´t care.

So you feel you were trying
to help these women?

Of course I was.

I was telling them no woman

should put up with shit
like that from any man.

And if you think you were
trying to help these women,

how good a job
do you think you´ve done so far?

[ Chuckles ]
Well, they´re not gonna make

the same mistake again,
are they?

Put it that way.

Was that why you picked them?

´Cause they were like your mum.
Weren´t they, really?

You were just cherry-picking out
women that reminded you of Mum.

Is that it?

If you say so.

Were you so angry with your mum

that you thought this was
the best way to get back at --

I´m fucking angry at you
for fucking holding me here

when I haven´t done anything!

I told you!
I haven´t done anything!

Annette Walker,

I´m going to, under
the circumstances, arrest you

-for conspiracy to rape...
-♫ La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la ♫

-...and GBH.
-[ Coughing ]

You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defense

if you do not mention,
when questioned,

something
you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

-♫ I can´t hear you ♫
-Do you understand, Annette?

♫ I can´t hear you ♫

BELLAMY:
Annette, do you understand?

I can´t hear you!

BELLAMY: I´ve been very clear,
but the response to caution

was that she couldn´t hear me,
so I´m repeating --

Do you understand, Annette?

Do you understand, Annette?

Yes.

Victim is Terrence Holland,
investment banker.

Hence
this very lovely penthouse.

He´s also terminally ill.

He was found in an apparent
drugs overdose in the bedroom.

So he would have been
barely able to use his arms.

He could not have
done that himself.

Let´s look at his last will
and testament, I think.

See who´s most likely
to benefit from his death.

Mrs. Holland, in order
to continue my investigation,

I need to arrest you.

Mrs. Holland, I don´t want
to have to use these.

-Okay?
-Oh, my God.

Let´s go quickly,
let´s go quietly.

Five minutes,
and I´ll talk to you.

STEELE:
In which case, Dr. Standish,

I´m more than happy
to arrest you in the corridor.

I´m arresting you on suspicion
of assisted suicide.

I will cuff you,
or I will hold you.

-You can choose.
-All right, hold me.

But I will talk to my solicitor,
thank you.

-[ Vehicle door closes ]
-STEELE: Matt and Jess Holland.

WESTON: Stand there.
Stand there. Stand there.

Stand there!
Stand still!

-Stop.
-Fucker!
