I want you to show me
your fear.

Show me your fear.

Ask yourself what you're afraid of.

It's following you down the road.

You can't turn your head because,
if you do, you will see it.

You are terrified!
You are petrified!

- What the hell's going on?
- Sorry, Owen, it's her.

Becca, stop making her laugh.

Ellie, really good, but you
could allow yourself to be...

..more vulnerable.
And then it'll all come.

Concentrate.

- Bye, babe.
- Becca?

"I want you to show me fear!"

Season 3 - Episode 05
Part 1

Right.

Right.
Yes.

Right, thank you.

Insufficient evidence
to warrant a charge of murder.

Sorry, Ken.
I know how hard you worked on this.

We all did.

We can still get him
for manslaughter.

- It's twice in two weeks, Ron!
- I know.

First Draper, now Sheldon -
both knocked back by the CPS.

- I know.
- It's affecting morale.

God knows what it's doing to
public confidence. Am I right?

- You are right.
- Thank you.

Every time we talk about this,
you're right.

Apparently you don't actually
need a pub to be a pub bore.

I'm serious. If the criminal
justice system exists

to provide justice for
criminals ahead of victims...

Come in!

Sorry to interrupt.
Ellie Clayton's been found.

- Good.
- Who's that?

A 16-year-old girl
from Valley Edge,

been missing since last night.

Sorry, boss.
When I say found...

Boss.

Almost certainly
what it says on the tin.

Asphyxia by ligature strangulation.

I'd say between 12 and 15 hours
if pushed,

but definitely no more.

Have you got enough now?

And cover the body,
will you, please?

What about all the blood?

A scalp wound.

Not terribly severe but
they can bleed heavily.

Any signs of sexual assault?

Well, her underwear's
been ripped in two.

That doesn't actually constitute
evidence of rape.

Well, that's one
for the post mortem, I'm afraid.

I couldn't possibly say
from initial examination.

- No phone?
- Not yet.

Boss, there's a local at the cordon

asking to speak to
the officer in charge.

Inspector Banks,

have you got anything
that you can give me?

As soon as we can, we will.

Is it true that it's
Daniel Clayton's daughter?

Do me a favour, Glen.
Don't go speculating publicly

until the victim's been
formally identified, OK?

And has she been?

You've covered enough of
these by now to know how it works.

We do have a media liaison team,
Mr. Painter.

Come on. Look, this must be
the biggest thing that's happened

in this part of the valley
for years.

It's the biggest thing
that'll ever happen to one family.

As soon as we can, we will.

- Have you got anything?
- Detective!

DCI Banks,
DI Morton.

Mr. Clark lives in East Valley.

I don't know
if this is any use to you,

but sometime last night, after 8:00,

I noticed a car
half blocking my driveway.

So I kept my eye out and later saw
a chap I didn't recognise

getting in the car
in a bit of a hurry.

Can you describe him?

Well, the light was very poor,
I'm afraid, but...

he was definitely wearing
a cap and a leather jacket.

- And what about the car?
- Dark blue, very dirty.

The rear light was damaged.

Thank you, Mr. Clark.
That's very helpful.

Get him with E-Fit,
then run the car

and pass the details on
to the door to doors.

Thank you.

A pretty exclusive address,
even for Valley Edge.

So when will it be my turn to drive?

I've told you. It depends
on whose car we're in.

Right, so it's not a control thing?

Am I supposed to know
who this Daniel Clayton is?

LastChanceToBuy.com -
founder or co-founder.

You don't know what that is, do you?

It's an auction website.

You must be having
a positive influence.

- Anything?
- No, not much.

What I'd like to know
is what a 16-year-old

was doing alone in
a park late at night.

If it was one of mine, I'd...

Yeah.

- Mr. Clayton?
- No.

I'm Simon Harris,
Daniel's business partner.

Detective Chief Inspector
Alan Banks.

- DI Morton.
- Hi. Come in.

Every Friday after school,

she goes to her theatre workshop.

If one of us can't pick her up,
she'll get a cab.

Last night she phoned and...

asked if...

..she could go for a pizza
with Becca Smith.

She should have been back
by half eight at the latest.

She wasn't answering her phone,
so I tried Becca.

She knew nothing about a pizza.

She said that she had left Ellie
outside the theatre.

And...

Sorry.

I believe when Dan
came back from work,

he called the usual cab company

and they said that
Ellie hadn't ordered a car.

And that's when you call
the Harrises?

I said Dan should contact you.

Could we speak to Mr. and
Mrs. Clayton on their own, please?

- Of course.
- No, please.

I'd like them to stay.

Lauren, we need a full list

of all Ellie's friends.

Do you think you could help us
with that?

We weren't that close, to be honest.

- Is there a boyfriend?
- No.

No, there isn't.

You haven't even said
it's definitely her.

Nobody's actually said
that it's Ellie.

We believe the body belongs to
your daughter, Mr. Clayton.

But we will need someone
to make a formal identification.

I can't.

I'll do it.

We'll get whoever did this.

That's a promise.

Ellie Clayton,

last seen outside the
theatre on West Street at 7:30

after attending a weekly workshop.

Run by an Owen Pierce.

We were gonna talk to him
while you're at school.

We're trying to recover the CCTV
from the local area.

And we need to talk to the
other cab companies nearby.

Local uniform reckon this
sculpture is a meeting place

for teenagers, so was Ellie
meeting someone last night?

And if so, how
did she get there?

- And check her -
- Social media? Already on it.

Make sure you all get
a copy of this E-Fit.

Seen in Valley Edge
an hour before the murder

wearing a cap and leather jacket.

You have a description
of the car -

dark blue, dirty,
damaged rear light.

We need to find out who is he,
why was he in the area?

Then Daniel Clayton.

We all know how often
the person we're after

turns out to be sitting next to us
at the press conference.

Ellie Clayton -

she was young, pretty,
from a prominent family.

Needless to say, the media
are going to have a field day.

Public interest will follow

along with everything
that goes with it, OK?

I'll go and see him now.

Inspector Banks.

- Mr. Harris.
- Thanks for coming in.

I know you're very busy,

but I couldn't really
talk at the house.

That's fine.

You asked if Ellie
had a boyfriend.

Now, I was never able to establish
if that's what he was,

but a few months back
I was passing Dan and Soph's

and I saw this car
that I didn't know parked outside.

I caught Ellie
bunking off school

and hitting the drinks cabinet
with this horrible little shit.

Could you be more specific?

Older lad.
Older than Ellie, anyway.

20 maybe.

I managed to throw him out,
but if Ellie hadn't mediated,

there was no way he was going
without a fight.

- Do you remember the car?
- It was a convertible...

I know I was surprised
he could afford it.

Did you talk to the Claytons
about this?

No. I promised Ellie I wouldn't -

if she promised
not to see him again.

It would...
Dan would've...

It would have broken his heart.

Ellie was everything to him.

- And did she do what you asked?
- As far as I know, but...

Presumably you'd recognise him again?

Definitely.

Mr. Owen Pierce?

I was expecting you sooner.

Please, won't you come in?

Living room's just through there.

I can't claim to have known her
all that well,

but she was always
such a bright young thing.

So vital.

You know, there's...

There's some really twisted...

Are you sure I can't offer you
a cup of tea?

No.

So you actually saw Ellie
leave the theatre last night?

Yes, with Becca Smith.

Ellie's the more talented,
but Becca tries harder.

- It's often the way, isn't it?
- Then what did you do?

I just came straight back here.

- You live alone?
- I'm currently single, yeah.

- Any family?
- Not anymore.

And you didn't leave the house again
after that?

No.

Can anybody verify that?

That would be a bit difficult,
wouldn't it, because I just said -

You... picked up a takeaway
on your way home.

That...

is actually a few days old,

I'm ashamed to say.
I haven't done much cleaning up in here.

I've just been really snowed under
with work.

- What exactly is it that you do?
- DC Blackstone.

I'm a freelance theatre director.

I'm mounting a touring production
of Antigone...

..which is also a tragedy, you know.

We cancelled lessons, but...

it seems a lot of the students
would rather be here anyway.

That's understandable.

Ellie...was
an extremely popular girl.

And was she doing
well academically?

Yes. Yes, it was a huge
improvement this term.

Improvement?

She... wobbled a little a while back.

But nothing serious,

and we talked about it without
needing to involve the parents.

Ellie was a very mature young lady.

Becca Smith was her best friend.

She's through here.

Sorry I'm late in the office. Yeah.

Right, OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's fine.

Yeah, but I'll need to see it
before you do that. Yeah. OK.

Listen, can I call you back?

Had Ellie ever done that before,
Becca -

lied to her parents that she was
with you when she wasn't?

Not as far as I know.

In order to meet a boy, perhaps.

A boy that maybe her dad
didn't approve of.

I don't think Mr. Clayton
would've approved of any boy, but...

- no.
- So no boyfriend at all?

Not at another school
or at the theatre group?

No self-respecting teenage girl
goes out with boys her own age,

does she, Becca?

There was nobody.

Not that I know of, anyway.

Maybe Ellie kept the boyfriend
a secret from everyone.

So why do so many teenage girls
go for older lads?

Because most 16-year-old boys
are immature and dull.

- What were you like at that age?
- Heartbroken, mostly.

Kate Saunders laughed in my face
when I asked her out.

She already had a boyfriend
with an Escort and a flick knife.

- Sounds like a lucky escape.
- Probably -

she went on to develop a drug habit.

No, I meant for her.

When I was 16, I went out with

a 28-year-old
roofer called Simon.

Can you drop me at the mortuary,
please?

- A lot of people -
- Sorry. I tried to sort it,

but they need to speak to you
as well.

Just give us a few minutes.
You can stay there.

Of course.

I'm sure you're
very much in demand.

A cap and leather jacket.
It's a match, Win.

- It's a perfect match.
- There must be hundreds of men

that own leather
jackets and caps.

- Doesn't make them a killer.
- He's lying about the takeaway.

- Possibly.
- Definitely.

How long have we worked together?
Trust me on this.

We're gonna need more than that
if we want to bring him in.

Will that do you?

Dark blue, dirty,
damaged brake light.

Mrs. Clayton, I know you've
probably had enough of us,

but would you mind showing me
Ellie's room, please?

Daniel, Inspector Banks
needs to have a look around.

- They've already searched the room.
- I won't be long.

They...
They took away her computer.

It will come back.

Take as long as you like.

Did Ellie keep a diary?

She did everything on her erm...

her phone.

You haven't found it?

No.

Obviously very
proud of her father.

And the company.

Would you say that Ellie
was closer to you or your wife?

I think girls gravitate towards
their fathers at a certain stage.

And...

Ellie and me -

we found we could talk.

About?

Anything.

Well, that's very rare.

She was more perceptive
than some women

twice her age.

And she was a great listener.

That's what made her so lovely
and attractive.

There's just...

No sign of recent sexual activity -
forced or otherwise.

Nothing recent?

- So she wasn't a virgin?
- No, no.

What else?

Well, there are no
defence injuries.

In fact, there's no indication
that she put up a fight at all.

What about this?

There's no bruising.
That wasn't caused by a blow.

It's more of a scratch, really.

Forensics?

We took a series of tiny fibres from
underneath the fingernails on both hands.

- Already at the lab.
- I'll get on to them now.

The last time I wore an outfit
like this,

I was promoting a tour of
A Clockwork Orange.

Isn't that the one where they...

rape and murder for fun?

It's about a bit more than that,
actually, Inspector.

Why were you hanging around
Valley Edge last night?

I...

wasn't.

Then why did the Golden Lotus
on Park Approach

confirm that you bought a takeaway
at 9:26pm?

When you told our officers
that you didn't leave the house

after coming straight home
from the theatre.

Have you spoken to Tyler Judd yet?

He joined my
workshop for a while.

That is until I had to ask him
to leave.

He was seeing Ellie Clayton,
I believe.

I thought you said
you hardly knew her.

How do you know
who she was seeing?

They all talk to me, the kids.

They kind of treat me
like I'm one of them.

Mostly the girls, strangely enough.

And you encourage that, do you?

In the workshop.

If it gets the required...

performance.

Did you find Ellie attractive,
Mr. Pierce?

Let's just say
I appreciate the female form.

Well, we can take that
as a yes, then.

Look, is my detention here

based solely on the
memory of some bloke

that works at the Golden Lotus?

Seriously.

You've got nothing,
nothing on me, so...

I'd like to go home now, please.

Not yet, Mr. Pierce.

Well, actually,
I don't think you can keep me here.

Actually, we can.

Well, in that case, I'd like to
speak to my solicitor, please.

Well?

Lonely, inadequate...

probably deluded
and quite possibly harmless.

We should get this Tyler Judd in.

Yeah, background first.
And sleep.

Yes, the 9:00�m press call.

It's a bit inconsiderate, isn't it -

asking you to face the cameras
that early?

Especially at your age

Mr. Clayton?

Anything of potential interest,
bag it.

So, please,
if anybody knows anything

that could help stop
whoever did this...

from doing it again...

please...

tell the police.

Sir?

What have you got?

Whoever she is,
she's got at least one fan.

Detective Chief Inspector Banks
will take any questions.

Inspector, is it true that
you've arrested a man overnight?

As Chief Superintendent McLaughlin
has already said,

we are pursuing several active lines
of inquiry

and it's important at this time -

Can you confirm that the man
in custody is Owen Pierce?

"Can you confirm that the man
in custody is Owen Pierce?"

I mean, what the hell does he think
he's trying to do?

Doing what crime reporters
are paid to do these days -

putting the story
ahead of the investigation.

Boss, found in Pierce's house.

Looks like Ellie
Clayton, don't you think?

- So who is she?
- Maddy Phillips.

Lives in Leeds now, but she was in
Pierce's workshop a few years back.

According to staff the theater,
they had a fling.

It's nice work, both of you.

Yes, but it's only an interesting
coincidence at the moment.

Let's get these in front of him
and hit him with everything.

Forensic report on
Owen Pierce first.

You two bring in Tyler Judd and
we'll visit this Maddy Phillips.

Then we'll hit him
with everything.

- Detectives.
- Glen Painter.

What are you doing here?

So it looks like I did the
same detective work as your team,

only I got here first.

And she has got
quite the story to tell.

If you don't report this responsibly
from the beginning,

it could compromise our investigation
and any subsequent trial.

I'm not trying to make your jobs
any harder,

but when these cases come along,
the world doesn't just stop

and wait for yous
to arrange a news conference.

- "These cases"?
- We should work together.

I'm sorry for outing him like I did,
but he did do it, didn't he?

I think perhaps
you're missing the point here.

- Thanks, Glen.
- I'll be in touch.

I was 17 when it started

and it lasted for about
two-and-a-half years, on and off.

I know he's older,
but he knew about acting,

and that's all I ever wanted to do.
I've got an agent now.

Why did you split up?

He got a bit... creepy.

He started making me
feel a bit nervous.

He didn't like me
talking to people -

well, men, really.

And then when I tried to end it,
he wouldn't take no for an answer.

He started pestering me and my mum

and only stopped when I threatened
him with a restraining order.

But he did stop?

Yeah, but I still didn't feel
safe. That's why I moved away.

Tell us more about how
he made you feel nervous,

specifically.

I don't know what Glen said,

but if we find that you've
withheld information

in order to profit
from it later,

you'll be in serious trouble.

Owen liked porn.

Not, like, regular porn.

More rough sex.

We play acted for a while, you know,
like role play.

Is that what he did
to Ellie Clayton?

Is that why you're here?
Could that have been me?

Would you be prepared
to repeat this in court?

In front of all those people?

I don't know.

Just facing Owen
across a packed courtroom -

it'd be really traumatic.

But you know, if you needed me to
to help bring him to justice,

then, well, I guess it's my duty,
really, isn't it?

Right, then, Mr. Pierce,

- I'd like to begin -
- Actually, I'd like to begin.

I made a mistake.

About the takeaway. I made
a mistake. I got my days mixed up.

It was an oversight.

That's quite an impressive record
you've got there, Tyler.

You must be something of a hero
amongst the aspiring car thieves.

Be even more impressive
if you hadn't been caught so often.

There's no sign
of sexual assault

or, indeed, any
kind of struggle,

which suggests to us that Ellie
may well have known her attacker.

It also suggests that
whoever killed her

arranged her clothes afterwards
to make it look like rape.

A carefully stage-managed scene...

..right down to the ripping
of her underwear.

No comment.

How long were you
seeing Ellie for?

No comment.

You're bored.
We're bored, Tyler.

How about we get the man who threw you out
of the Claytons' to come and identify you?

And we can see how far we get
with a charge of B and E.

Do you like
pornography, Mr. Pierce?

Maddy Phillips told us you do.

She said you particularly like
rough sex

and that sometimes
you won't take no for an answer.

I haven't seen Maddy for some time.

She still bears
some resemblance...

to Ellie Clayton.

So I was there.
And what?

She invited me in.

Then why keep it a secret?

She was 15.

And you were having
a sexual relationship?

What do you think?

She was always stressing
about her old man finding out.

They were like...

Don't know if he'd
be angry or jealous.

Know what I mean?

Where were you between 7:30 and 8:30
last Friday night?

Driving. And yeah, on my own.
And no, I don't have a car.

I leant it off a mate
who'll vouch for me.

Yeah, I'm sure he will.
But did anyone actually see you?

CCTV?

I tend to avoid it.

Mr. Pierce, why were you
in East Vale Valley Park

- on Friday night between 8:00 and 9:00pm?
- But I wasn't there!

Yes, you were!
You and your car were seen.

The witness provided us
with this E-Fit.

- He's lying.
- They're both lying.

We're gonna have to charge or
release within the next two hours.

All we've got on either
is circumstantial.

Not anymore.
DNA results on Pierce are in.

Cell three,
back to Interview Room 1 now.

To clarify, Mr. Pierce, you weren't
in the park on Friday night?

- No.
- How much longer are you going to keep me here?

And you didn't see Ellie
after she left the theatre?

No.

Why, then, are there traces
of Ellie's blood

on the jacket which you admit
you were wearing on that night?

OK,

I did bump into her.

- I think perhaps my client and I...
- No, it's fine. It's fine.

It's fine.
I was in the park.

Ellie appeared out of nowhere.

She...
She was cut on the head.

She...
She seemed totally disorientated

and she literally
walked right into me.

- Owen -
- I tried to stop her.

I tried to talk to her.

She, she ran off.

So I let her go.

Are you sure that's
what you want to say - on record?

Yes. I'm sure.

- I would like to suggest a break.
- Why were you in the park?

I was visiting Maddy's mother.

Well, I was waiting outside.

She lives near there.

God, I'm so stupid.

But it was an oversight.

Can I go now?

You do know the difference between
an oversight and a lie, Mr. Pierce?

Don't patronise me, please.

I haven't patronised you,
despite having to sit here

and answer questions
of a very personal nature

in the presence of a woman
who clearly hates men!

And my command of English language
is far better than yours, darling.

- Now I'd like to go!
- No.

You can go when
we say you can go.

- You dried-up bitch!
- Sit down, Mr. Pierce!

I want to go home!

Let's just deal
with what we know.

He's stalked women before.

Although Maddy Phillips
is a lousy actress

and she'll make
an even worse witness.

He lives on his own,
he uses specialist porn,

- he's into violent sex.
- Yes, but being a bachelor

doesn't necessarily make you
a sex murderer, does it?

- He's got no plausible alibi.
- And neither has Tyler Judd.

- He's lied to us throughout.
- And so has Judd!

I'm playing devil's advocate.

He's got Ellie's blood on his jacket.

OK. But if everything
hinges on forensics,

the fibres under Ellie's nails

don't match her
clothes or Pierce's.

- So what do you think happened?
- Well, I don't know yet.

But that doesn't make Pierce guilty,
does it?

My instinct says he is.

Your instinct can't be submitted
as evidence,

even assuming it's not compromised.

- Meaning?
- Is it instinct?

Or are you willing him to be guilty
for other reasons?

Like fear of not being able
to deliver

on a promise
you should never have made.

Yes, all right, thank you.

You are charged at sometime

between 7:30 and 8:30
last Friday evening,

You murdered Ellie Clayton
of Hillcrest Valley Edge.

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

if you do not mention something
which you later rely on in court.

THREE MONTHS LATER

All rise.

The fact remains,
Chief Inspector Banks,

that during the series of interviews
you've described,

Mr. Pierce
gave satisfactory explanations

for every one of his actions on
the night of Ellie Clayton's death.

He was also shown to be lying
in every one of those interviews

and we didn't find his explanations
at all satisfactory.

And this was sufficient grounds to
arouse your suspicions, DS Jackman,

based solely on the clothing
shown here?

It also doesn't look
unlike Owen Pierce, facially.

It doesn't look unlike most men
in Yorkshire, Detective.

Which raises the question -

did you decide this was Mr. Pierce
and then make him fit the picture?

There were other factors.
When we interviewed him -

This is the initial interview
in Mr. Pierce's home?

- Yes.
- Where exactly

did that take place?

In the sitting room.

And what happened

when Detective
Constable Blackstone

received a call to
his mobile phone?

He answered it, I think.

You think?

He did.

And did he then leave the
room to continue the call?

I'm sorry,
could you repeat the question?

Did DC Blackstone
leave the sitting room unaccompanied

in order to continue his phone call?

I should remind you at this point
that you are under oath.

I'm sorry. I...
I don't exactly recall.

Detective Constable Blackstone,

whilst interviewing the Defendant
in his sitting room,

did you receive a phone call?

- I did.
- Can you tell the court

what happened next, please?

I answered it.

And during that call,
did you leave the room?

May I refer to my notes, please?

You may.

There's no reference to that
in my notes.

I didn't ask what was in your notes.

Before you repeat the question,

could you explain
your line of questioning, please,

for the benefit of the jury?

Of course.

Whilst it may seem a
small procedural matter,

if Detectives Jackman or Blackstone

were in any part of
Mr. Pierce's house unaccompanied

and without a search warrant,

all evidence obtained
during that visit

may be deemed inadmissible.

In this case,
I'm referring specifically

to Mr. Pierce's cap and jacket.

DC Blackstone,

did you leave the room
to continue your phone call?

I think...

I don't honestly...

Yes, I did.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
I'll need you to withdraw,

if you will, while I confer with
the prosecution and defence teams.

- I don't understand.
- I know.

What's this got to do with
whether he killed her or not?

Now, what did we talk about?

When I promised to stay calm,

I had a whisky in my hands

and you didn't tell me the jury
might be dismissed on the first day.

That's because I didn't know.

So what's going to happen next?

Due to procedural irregularities
in the prosecution case,

I have no alternative
but to declare a mistrial.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
you are discharged.

Mr. Pierce...

you are free to go.

All rise.

I have complete faith
in my officers,

both in terms of
their professionalism and integrity.

If errors are found
to have been made,

then, of course,
we'll address that.

Your reaction to the verdict?

Well, obviously there's
disappointment.

This is not the outcome we all
wanted for the Clayton family.

We will look at everything again
in some detail

and a full statement
will be issued in due course.

Thank you.
That's all I have for the moment.

- Boss.
- This is my fault.

Don't tell me I'm gonna have to
remind you that we're a team.

You thought we had the
wrong man all along.

I never said that.

That's why we haven't talked
about it for three months -

- so you didn't have to.
- We got it wrong.

Now we need to start again.

There is no "we". I'm the head of
this unit and it was my decision.

Now I've dropped the rest
of the team in the shit

and the Claytons
won't sleep again tonight.

It's not about you.
There's a killer still out there

and it's our job to stop him.

Before he does it again.

All the evidence pointed to Pierce
yesterday and still does today.

I take full responsibility
for this investigation

therefore any disciplinary action...

No need for any sword falling.
Not yet anyway.

But, you shouldn't
need me to emphasise

the kind of scrutiny
we're now under.

There's murmurings of a PCA inquiry.
The Claytons are owed blood.

In the absence of the killers,
ours will do.

I'll talk to them today.

Do that, but there's only one way
this all disappears.

A bullet-proof case against Pierce.
And quickly.

I've got complete faith in this team

but you'll understand I can't be
seen to be leaving you to it.

We all have bosses.

Everything absolutely
by the book from here, Alan.

"My darling Owen.

"I'm so glad you're holding yourself
together in prison.

"Do you remember how you used to
comfort me when we were together?

"I wish I were able to be with you
to comfort you now."

I know how you feel about Pierce

but the team needs to know
we're together on this.

We are together about wanting
this killer caught, aren't we?

Yes.
Well, let's concentrate on that.

Right, everything we've got
on Owen Pierce however small

comes back on the table,
apart from the Forensics obviously.

Sir, uniform have had a call
from Owen Pierce.

Boss.
Don't.

Your tone suggests you were
about to apologise. Don't.

Yesterday was at least as much
my fault as it was yours.

Let's concentrate on
putting things right.

For everyone's sake, OK?

And when we get there,
let me do the talking.

Pierce has reported a break-in.

The house was trashed and
stuff nicked while he was in prison.

We never did establish where those
fibres under Ellie's nails came from.

Where did Pierce
say he was parked, again?

Behind the theatre.
Where there's no camera.

You know, if I'd almost
committed perjury yesterday

first and foremost,
do you know what I'd do?

Resign?
No.

Make Ken resign.
I'd forget everything else.

I'd put all my energy into catching
whoever killed Ellie Clayton.

Right. Let's watch it again.

What do you want?

Well, you did call the police.

About seven hours ago.
I assumed I was being ignored.

I've cleaned it all up now,
haven't I?

Not quite.

It's always a challenge
even to the best of spellers.

It's a shame you cleaned.

There's not much we can do now that
you've corrupted the evidence.

Oh, don't worry.

I've had a crash course
in police procedure.

Sorry, what?

What happened to you two over...?

Have you been demoted already?

Is that why you're
investigating break-ins now?

No.

We thought we'd make
an exception for you...

..so that we know exactly
where we all stand.

I know exactly where I stand.

The fact that you're free now

proves absolutely nothing.

I know that.

Well, know this, Mr Pierce.

Any crime committed on any woman
in Yorkshire from now on

and yours is the first door
that I will knock.

You have no idea what
you've done to me, do you?

No idea.

Courtesy of prison.

Boiling water and sugar.
It's a favourite on the landings.

Sugar intensifies the burn.

You did this to me.

And this.

Is that what you do?

Take it out on others
when you can't face the truth?

Take it out on young women
when they fail to see your...

I can't walk down the bloody road!
You're not the victim!

I'm not the...

Oh no. Remind me. Who is the victim?

Ellie Clayton is the victim.
The innocent girl...

Alright, Ken!
I didn't strangle her.

She was the most...
What did you say?

I said she was...
What did you say?!

Outside. Go on.

Anything?
Maybe. Look.

Becca's just left and there's
Ellie outside the theatre.

She pauses just slightly
just before she crosses the road.

Now, keep your eye
on the road surface.

Headlights.

Someone flashes their lights
to call her.

She crosses the road towards them
but it's not Pierce's car

because two minutes later his car
appears from the other direction.

Ellie did know whoever picked her up
but it wasn't Owen Pierce.

He may have followed her.
Her and whoever she was with.

If Pierce was obsessed with Ellie,

seeing her with someone might have
triggered what happened in the park.

Good.

Yes.

Thanks.

Becca Smith.

I don't want to get anyone
into trouble but...

If he didn't do it...

Who, Becca?
Owen.

If he didn't kill Ellie...

I mean, I know what
they said in court but,

they wouldn't him go
if they thought he did it.

Just take your time.

Tell us exactly
what you came here to say.

Ellie did sort of have a boyfriend.

Yeah, we know. Tyler Judd.

Right.

When he was with Ellie,

he turned up outside school one day
and offered me a lift.

I got in but instead of
taking me home he drove to the park.

Is that Eastvale Valley Park?

He made me get out and we
walked past the sculpture.

He said he wanted
to have sex with me.

I said no, no way but...

I tried to turn away
and he wouldn't let me.

He got me on the ground
and got on top of me.

Did he rape you?

I pulled my skirt up and...

..made sure he knew he could
if he wanted to.

And then...

He just...

..got up and walked away laughing.

He just left me there like that.

Why didn't you tell us
three months ago?

You got Owen so quickly
and I thought...

I thought if Ellie's dad
found out about Tyler...

It's not as if they were serious.
I mean... She wasn't anyway.

Why make it worse for him?

So, Ellie ended the relationship.

Do you know why?

She never said.

Do you think it's because
he was violent towards her?

I don't know but I never
told her what he did to me.

Even though she was
your best friend?

Tyler warned me not to
and he still hung around,

outside school, at the theatre,
always trying to get us in the car.

I was scared of him.

I still am.

Daniel, we won't give in.

I promise.
Don't promise anything.

You did that once before, remember?

It turned out to be as hollow as
an apology would be so please don't.

Let me at least try...
Where is he now?

Back home I suppose? Back to his
old life like nothing's happened.

While I sit here, Ellie dead
and my marriage being torn apart.

You let me worry about Pierce. OK.

Daniel, look at me.

OK.

Tyler.

Can we have a word outside, please?

You've taken more time off work.

I'm pretty much surplus
to requirements these days.

But you own half the company.

Not quite. Not any more.

We planned to give our daughters
shares on their 18th birthday.

Me and Simon.

But Lauren's older which means
that for some time now

on any decision of any import,
I can be and have been outvoted.

So you're feeling squeezed out?

Honestly,
I just don't care any more.

The only thing that bothers me is
what Ellie would think about me

giving up without a fight.

And you talked to Ellie about
problems in the company?

Yeah.

And Sophie, too.

My memories of Ellie
are all I have right now

and they're mine and I'd rather
not talk about it any more.

Frankly, I find it quite insulting

you feel you've got time
for this today.

I'm sorry, Daniel.

You're brave.

How is he?

Let's just say I'm glad there's
someone here to keep an eye on him.

It's not a social visit.

I've come to pick up
a few things of Sophie's.

She's staying with us at the moment.

I tried last night
but the timing wasn't great.

Yes, he said you'd had
some problems at work.

Tell me, how would you describe
Daniel and Ellie's relationship?

Close, very close.

Yeah, but not...

..unusually so?

I'm not qualified to say.

But I can tell you
I was jealous of it.

Yeah, we have daughters.

Had daughters of similar age.

If only they'd
been identical ages

things would have been a lot easier.

All Lauren ever says to me is,

"Dad, can I have this,
can I have that?"

Whereas Dan and Ellie...

..it was a partnership.

They were like a real couple.

You will get him, won't you?

Pierce.

We're keeping an open mind.

We know you gave Ellie a lift
the night she died.

Do ya?
Yeah.

We've got footage of you flashing
lights at her opposite the theatre

and approaching the park with her
in the passenger seat.

What's the matter? I thought you
liked being in cars with women.

No, he prefers being
in the driving seat.

Will you stop that, please?

I wonder who you've been talking to.

So you drove Ellie to the park,
then what?

Best thing that ever
happened to Becca, this.

Before she was only ever going to be
Ellie Clayton's ugly mate.

If you've got CCTV then why are we
doing this is a pub car park?

We're giving you the chance
to explain yourself.

Feel free to deny it again but
consider how it might look in court.

I'll take my chances
in court with you lot.

Eat shit.

Alright, so we drove to the park.

So what?

You didn't think to mention it
under questioning?

I was in a stolen car
and under probation!

Why admit it when you'd already
arrested that nonce?

Why the park?
Cos that's where she asked to go!

I dropped her and left, that's it!
Why did she stop seeing you, Tyler?

Tell you what.
Get a medium and we'll ask her.

I'm asking you because I think you
know a lot more than you're saying.

So arrest me.

But best be sure this time 'ey?

Do you have the clothes
you were wearing that night?

Binned them ages ago.
Why would you do that?

Cos I'm a fashion icon.

Have to move with the times,
don't ya?

We done or what?
Yeah. Off you go.

And you lot wonder why I hate pubs.

A search warrant?

Tyler lied to us three months ago
and he's lying again.

The press are watching our every move

do we want to alert them
to a new suspect?

If we tracked down the clothes he
was wearing we could rule him out.

It occurred to me last night

if Pierce was obsessed with Ellie
and Maddy before her,

why assume it started there?

I want to go further back.

I want to be able to write Pierce's
biography by the end of the day.

Boss...
DCI Banks.

You came.

It's good to see you, Maddy.

She's been identified
as Becca Smith.

Right, well, I've only made
a cursory examination so far

but everything is all but identical
to the Ellie Clayton scene

down to the finest detail.

It's almost theatrical,
like some kind of sacrifice.

The same killer, or killers,
no question.

The bad news is we're going to
have to wait a while

for the exact time of death.

Overnight temperatures have
accelerated certain processes.

However, the good news...
There is no good news!

The potentially useful news is

we found a hair
under one of her nails.

Is it at the lab?
Yeah, it's on its way.

Thanks.

You're quiet today.

I'm just...nervous.

I'd have invited you to my place only
it's been broken into unfortunately.

I'm sorry.

Yeah. I wouldn't have minded
coming back to yours though.

One step at a time, Owen.
Of course.

Yes, of course.

Your letters...
I can't put into words what...

They saved my life, I think.

Well, I always looked forward
to your replies.

You know I've been
thinking about the future...

..and I'm going to make it up to you.

When we're together,
properly I am because...

I'm different now.
Everything is so different...

I know. I know it is.

I've been thinking
about the future, too.

When do you think we'll be able...?
Oh soon. Very soon.

And it will be worth the wait, Owen.

I promise.

Did you say Ken was ill?

Apparently, the boss sent him home
after they went to Pierce's.

He's barely slept since the trial.

I don't think he's the only one.
Hmm.

Spot the difference.

Becca doesn't have
a cut to the head.

And the bag. In Ellie's it looks
like it's been turned inside-out,

ransacked, whereas Becca's
looks like it's been dropped.

Have you heard from the lab?
No, we were just...

This is it.

DCI Banks.

Yes, what are the results?

Owen! It's the police!

You know why we're here.

Come on, it will be better
if you open the door.

Open up now!

Clear!

Owen?

Shh-shh-shh-shh!

Where were you last night
at approximately 9:30pm?

At home.
Can anyone verify that?

For the tape, please.

No.

Do you know Becca Smith?

I didn't kill her.

Do you know Becca Smith?

In a former life I did.

When did you last see her?

It doesn't really matter what I say.

Does it?

That depends whether you can explain
why several strands of your hair

were under the fingernails of
Becca Smith's dead body.

Yeah.

Ken, what is it?
You've rearrested Pierce.

We're in the middle
of interviewing him.

Are you alright?
When was Becca killed?

You look bloody awful.
Er...last night.

When exactly?

Post-mortem pending around 9:30.
You gonna tell me what this is about?

He didn't do it, Pierce,
he couldn't have

because I was watching his house
from seven last night

right up until you arrested him.

What...?

I watched his every move
for the past 24 hours.

He had a pizza delivered,
took the rubbish out

and went upstairs a few times but
he never left the house all night.

I know you said everything
by the book but...

I was so sure and I thought,
"What if he does it again?

"It will all be my fault"
and I couldn't...

So if he didn't kill Becca...

He didn't kill Ellie, either.

Where is he now?
I told Ken to stay at home for now.

Not Blackstone!
I'll deal with him later.

Owen bloody Pierce!

We put him in a taxi
a few minutes ago.

It'll take more than paying his
taxi fare. Seen this, I expect?

Maddy Phillips sold him out
to the tabloids.

It's going to make matters
even worse for Pierce.

We need the lawyers to start
working on an apology of some sort

before I reassure two sets of
bereaved parents and national media

that we are going to
catch this killer.

Can you two reassure me?

Yes. Of course.

Someone broke into Pierce's house
to plant forensic evidence

to make us think he killed Becca,
therefore Ellie.

And do we think Tyler Judd
is bright enough for that?

He might not be clever
but he's devious

and he knows Becca talked to us
about an incident

that'd play badly for him in court
if he's charged with Ellie.

Get a warrant and be discreet.

Ron, what Ken did was stupid

and he accepts that but his actions
came from an attempt to repair...

I said later, Alan!

You do know your strength
is also a weakness, don't you?

You're so consumed to right wrongs,
it clouds your judgement.

All I've got is my instinct.
What happens when that's wrong?

I made a promise, Helen.

I know you did.

Not just to Daniel Clayton.

You're not God you know!

Wh-What? Why do I let you
talk to me like this?

And you're not the only one
with instincts by the way.

Nobody else talks to me like this.

It's because we're friends.

I haven't got many because in order
to be friends with someone

I have to know I can be honest and
they will be with me no matter what.

So you should probably decide
if you can cope with that.

Let's go and get Tyler Judd.

This is the last of Tyler's
known addresses.

Anything that doesn't belong.

Every item of clothing
comes with us, OK?

Do you think he got wind of Pierce's
release and went to ground?

ALAN: Excuse me!

Hello!

Oi! Tyler!

Move it!

Stay back, police!

Move away.

There's nowhere to go.

Don't!

Give it up.

So, why did you run?

The police chase you, you run.
Everyone knows that.

Where were you last night
between nine and ten?

The pub.
And?

Boss...

Found in Tyler Judd's house.
It belongs to Simon Harris.

Your lighter?

It depends.

I'd suggest,
given the context of your detention

this is not the time to start lying
about nicking a lighter.

Now where did you get it?

OK, we'll tell you.
You stole it from Simon Harris.

"To Simon, Love Tess."

And?

The man who threw you
out of the Claytons'?

Where did you get it from?

Focus your thoughts, Tyler.

You are currently our prime suspect

for the murders of Ellie Clayton
and Becca Smith.

Alright, whatever.

That dick went psycho,

calling me out in front of Ellie
like she was his daughter.

I'm not going to stand for that!
So what did you do?

Gave it a few weeks
and took his car for a spin.

Picked Ellie up from school
and made a day of it.

I might have stolen the lighter,
I must have done

but the other stuff Ellie kept.

What other stuff?
The camera, I don't know!

I don't know what she's done with it
because that was the last time we...

After that it was just,
I don't know.

It was different.

Next time she got in the car
she wanted dropping at the park.

Why didn't Simon Harris say anything
about his camera disappearing?

Tyler Judd returned his car
the same day.

Harris might not know
his car was ever stolen.

Maybe he just thinks he lost
his lighter, but a camera?

You'd miss a camera.

Unless he knew Ellie stole
the camera from his car.

Maybe Harris was protecting her
like when he caught her with Tyler.

Maybe he didn't want
to upset the dad.

He would have mentioned that to me
when I called at his office.

He didn't hold back when he was
describing Tyler Judd.

Maybe he didn't want anyone to know.
But why not?

Because of what's on it.
Maybe it's incriminating.

If that's the case, surely Harris
would destroy the camera

and get rid of the evidence.

Assuming you know where it is.

We're assuming Ellie
had the camera on her that night

but it's more than three months,
been over every inch of ground.

Ground. Yes, but not the sculpture.

It's a perfect hiding place.

You alright?

Yeah. That would explain
Ellie's cut scalp.

Hang on!

Wait.

There's something back here.
Is it the camera?

No, I'm not sure what it is.

Look. It's a memory card
from a camera.

Yeah.

That's Ellie.

She clearly didn't know
she was being photographed.

But, who took them?

Wait-wait-wait.

Can you make that section bigger?
Yeah.

It's Simon Harris.

Mr Harris's office
is just down there.

Mr Harris.

Is er...everything alright?

Is it Tess?
Your wife is fine, Mr Harris.

She's upset but fine.

We started searching your house
an hour ago.

She hasn't been allowed
to make calls.

You're going to explain...

Taken on your camera, we found the
memory card hidden in the sculpture.

By Lauren I assume.

I don't think so.

Alright I...

I took some photographs
I shouldn't have.

And yes, I'm ashamed.

But does Tess really need to know?

I think it might come out
when you admit to the murders.

Wh... What?!

Ellie was blackmailing you,
wasn't she, with these pictures?

What was it she wanted?

To have Daniel made
an equal partner again?

Why did you kill her before
she handed over the pictures?

I think you were telling me the truth
when you said you were jealous

of Ellie and Daniel's relationship,
but I think you lied about why.

No.

You were jealous of Tyler, too

because you wanted
that kind of intimacy.

No!

When Ellie found out that you were
obsessed with her, you killed her.

No!

Your wife gave us the clothing
you were wearing

the night Ellie Clayton was murdered.

We've got fibres from her nails.
We'll have a match in hours.

It's over, Mr Harris.

You're wrong. Ellie thought the same
as you about what I wanted from her.

But it wasn't about sex

and I could have taken it
if I was that kind of man.

She did try to blackmail me.

She got it into her head
that I was trying to force Dan out.

I told her, "The last thing
I would do is anything...

"..to hurt you."

When I met her at the park
she had this cut in her head

and I tried to help her
but she pulled away.

And that's when I told her.

I told her I loved her.

She laughed at me.

Then you killed her.
Not because, it was an accident.

No... She kept turning away.
She wouldn't listen to me.

And there was no reason
for her to be frightened

but she just started running
and I had to stop her.

I couldn't...

Open that.

I said open it.

Ellie's phone.

I look at her diary.

Texts.

Emails. Photos.

As if she's still here.

Her whole life is on there.

And you took it!

And what about Becca?

She was Ellie's friend.

She was more besides that!

Even if you did kill Ellie,
in what, a moment of madness,

you still went out and killed
another woman in cold blood

solely to cover your tracks.

You knew the case against
Owen Pierce was collapsing

so you had to implicate him
in another murder.

You killed Becca Smith
and framed Owen.

That...

That was unfortunate.
Killing Becca wasn't unfortunate!

It was callous, cowardly and
completely indefensible

and you will go down for it
for a long, long time.

Dad?

Stop!

This is the last time
we take these down, isn't it?

Yes!

Can I have that in writing?
Actually, you can.

Harris's statement is being processed
and constitutes a full confession.

Good.

I want you to know that I've
spoken to the relevant people

about DC Blackstone's
error of judgement

concerning Mr Pierce.

And, we can expect
an investigation of some sort.

However, since that error

resulted in an innocent man
being exonerated of murder

we can also fairly safely assume
there won't be any lasting damage.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Glen Painter is downstairs.
He wants to talk to you.

Apparently it's urgent.

I'm worried about Maddy Phillips.
I can't get hold of her.

I know she was banking on all this
to kick-start some kind of career.

Of course you encouraged her
to be realistic.

I'm a journalist not a therapist!

But I am here, aren't I?
When did you last speak to her?

Whenever I heard about Pierce,
sometime yesterday.

I told her the story is dead
because Pierce is innocent.

Then I tried again later just to
check on her but nothing.

What if she's done something
to herself?

Come on.
Thanks.

Maddy!

Maddy?

Owen.

Owen?

Owen, I need you to listen to me, OK?

Owen, we need you to let Maddy go now
so that you and I can talk properly.

OK?

I'm just going to
take Maddy's hand...

Owen please, don't....

Why not?

Because it will make things
a lot worse.

Who for?

For me?

My life will never, ever
be the same again!

But it doesn't have to
be like that, Owen.

I thought if I could get Becca Smith

to talk to the theatre
on my behalf then...

Well, then they'd know
the kind of person I really am.

And did you? Did you talk to her?
I tried.

I realised it was pointless.

Owen...

Don't pretend you want
to talk to me now!

Don't pretend you've got the time
to listen to me!

I know exactly what you think of me!

You made up your mind about me from
the very first moment when we met.

No, Owen...

It wasn't about you.

That's funny,
that's exactly what she said.

That's exactly what you said.
That's a coincidence.

"It's not about you, Owen."

That's what she said
to justify using me.

That's why she needs to be
taught a lesson.

She wrote me a letter every week
for the first month.

And after that, every day.

She told me how she longed
for us to be together.

Of course it was only when
I actually read the newspapers

I realised why she'd pushed me
to make my replies so explicit.

All I really wanted was to
curl up on the couch...

..watch TV, have her close.

Only now she tells me
it doesn't matter anyway.

Does it?

It doesn't matter any more.

Nobody is interested
in the story any more.

I don't think she's even sorry!

But I am, Owen.

I allowed a personal fixation
to cloud my judgement

and pollute my instinct.

And for all of
the consequences of that...

..I am truly sorry.

But it can get worse...

..if you have to live
with taking a life.

You can't imagine what that's
going to be like.

Owen, you're not a killer.

I wasn't.

Owen, please! Please!

Owen, don't! Don't do it!

Go!

I spoke with the community
psychiatric team.

Owen Pierce is going to need
a lot of support.

Not nearly as much as he'd need
if he'd used that knife.

We all need saving from ourselves,
don't we?

So, I'll drive tomorrow.

Yeah, we'll talk about that

over several drinks.

Go on!

I said you'd never set foot in here.

Fancy you getting
something wrong, Ken!

What can I get you?
No, I'll get them. I insist.

Does everything have to be a battle?
Please let me get you a drink.

Not as your boss, as your friend.

Thank you.
I'll have a vodka and tonic.

No ice or lemon
or any of that nonsense.

I wouldn't dare!
