Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:21,910 --> 00:01:26,267
Three days and I still keep forgetting.
Will they ever get this sorted out?
2
00:01:26,430 --> 00:01:30,309
The mysteries of a blocked drain!
I'm sure they're on top of their game.
3
00:01:30,510 --> 00:01:32,944
What game is that? Gin rummy?
4
00:01:33,110 --> 00:01:37,308
Do you think this is too much?
On the road with the rozzers?
5
00:01:37,510 --> 00:01:39,865
I don't want to look too frivolous!
6
00:01:40,070 --> 00:01:45,098
Nor do you want to disappoint 80% of your male
fan base who find you pretty under pressure.
7
00:01:45,310 --> 00:01:48,268
It's just a question
of striking a balance.
8
00:01:48,430 --> 00:01:52,946
Good God, would you credit it? Remember
that colonoscopy I had last month?
9
00:01:53,150 --> 00:01:57,189
- What about it?
- It's been nominated for an award.
10
00:01:57,390 --> 00:01:59,824
- Don't be ridiculous!
- As good as.
11
00:02:00,030 --> 00:02:05,900
It says here, "A panel of top consultants
deemed the advanced fibre optic technology
12
00:02:06,110 --> 00:02:09,420
"to have produced a near textbook
study of intestinal polyps. "
13
00:02:09,590 --> 00:02:15,062
It's being put forward as a possible reference
source at a major London teaching hospital.
14
00:02:15,230 --> 00:02:19,746
I suppose I'm gonna have to go out there
again and make an exhibition of myself?
15
00:02:19,910 --> 00:02:25,189
It's one thing to have a contraption like that
on a film unit, but stuck outside your house?!
16
00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:29,107
I wonder what I'm up against.
The competition will be fierce.
17
00:02:29,310 --> 00:02:30,902
Sorry, love?
18
00:02:42,950 --> 00:02:46,465
There's that Carla what's-her-name
off the telly! Hello, darling!
19
00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:50,030
Are you off to spend a penny, girl?
20
00:02:50,230 --> 00:02:54,109
Hey, Carla Borrego! Have one for me!
21
00:03:32,710 --> 00:03:34,189
Marty!
22
00:03:34,910 --> 00:03:36,389
Marty!
23
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:40,304
Good morning, Mr Creek. Just having
a quick "zzz". How's it all going?
24
00:03:40,510 --> 00:03:44,549
- Don't ask. Have you got the...?
- Oh, yeah, sorry.
25
00:03:48,190 --> 00:03:52,627
All right down there? Your brain's not
getting starved of oxygen or anything?
26
00:03:52,790 --> 00:03:56,146
- Who is this?
- It's me, Adam.
27
00:03:56,310 --> 00:03:59,188
Right. I knew that, of course.
28
00:03:59,350 --> 00:04:03,025
And tell me, Adam. How
long have I been down here?
29
00:04:03,230 --> 00:04:08,623
Just coming up for four days and I think
the disorientation is starting to kick in.
30
00:04:08,830 --> 00:04:13,824
No, no, I'm good, good. I trained myself
to the feak of pisical fikness, remember?
31
00:04:15,230 --> 00:04:21,226
The only real problem I've been encountering
is I think I'm getting some vibrations down here
32
00:04:21,390 --> 00:04:23,858
from the Circle and District Line.
33
00:04:24,070 --> 00:04:28,143
It's like every five minutes
when a train goes through.
34
00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:30,585
It gets kind of juddery.
35
00:04:30,750 --> 00:04:34,265
Actually, Adam, I'm afraid
we've had orders to bring you up
36
00:04:34,430 --> 00:04:37,069
from the powers that be.
37
00:04:37,270 --> 00:04:41,980
Two young women filed an official complaint
against you yesterday for sexual harassment.
38
00:04:42,190 --> 00:04:45,546
Sexual hara...? I'm
six feet undergroundl
39
00:04:45,750 --> 00:04:49,026
They claim you were
looking up their skirts.
40
00:04:49,230 --> 00:04:52,028
I know. I know.
41
00:04:52,190 --> 00:04:57,389
They say you were in a state of arousal and
appeared to be physically stimulating yourself.
42
00:04:57,590 --> 00:05:00,582
Oh, manl You've got to be jo...
43
00:05:08,470 --> 00:05:10,461
12.25 to Upminster?
44
00:05:10,670 --> 00:05:15,585
10.35 a. m. And news of a particularly
gruesome motorcycle accident
45
00:05:15,750 --> 00:05:19,140
in which both victims
were tragically decapitated
46
00:05:19,310 --> 00:05:21,824
has brought us to
Barston General Hospital.
47
00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:25,983
Detective Inspector Adrian Fell,
cool, calm and detached as ever
48
00:05:26,150 --> 00:05:28,539
as he goes about his grisly business.
49
00:05:39,230 --> 00:05:42,700
- The heads are on the wrong bodies.
- How can you tell?
50
00:05:44,030 --> 00:05:49,548
You've got a black guy and a white guy.
Call it intuition. This is just sloppiness.
51
00:05:53,950 --> 00:05:57,659
11.15 and in response to an
urgent message from a colleague,
52
00:05:57,830 --> 00:06:02,346
we're now heading across town to
check out a mysterious sudden death.
53
00:06:03,910 --> 00:06:08,381
- Have we got a name for this guy?
- Maurice Rumpole, single, retired bookmaker.
54
00:06:08,550 --> 00:06:12,828
Lived alone. People next door
said they heard... Sorry. This is?
55
00:06:12,990 --> 00:06:16,949
"Eyes & Ears", part of a new
prime-time reality strand.
56
00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:22,104
It has all been cleared. If I could ask you to
give us a bit more level, that would be super.
57
00:06:22,270 --> 00:06:26,343
Carla Borrego, Herbie Bryant.
Yes, the neighbours heard...?
58
00:06:27,550 --> 00:06:32,419
Some kind of loud and very violent
struggle going on last night about 11.
59
00:06:32,590 --> 00:06:35,058
Very helpfully kept it to themselves.
60
00:06:35,230 --> 00:06:38,222
The alarm was raised by the
cleaning lady this morning
61
00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:42,349
when she couldn't get into his
bedroom on account of... these.
62
00:06:43,270 --> 00:06:45,545
A couple of sawed-off draw bolts,
63
00:06:45,750 --> 00:06:49,504
both of which had clearly been
shot by someone inside the room.
64
00:06:50,230 --> 00:06:54,985
As you can see, it took some
fancy footwork to get past THEM.
65
00:06:56,470 --> 00:06:58,461
And when we did...
66
00:07:06,310 --> 00:07:10,508
The windows were all
secure on this side.
67
00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:14,342
But... I don't know...
68
00:07:15,390 --> 00:07:20,100
I've got one of my bellyaches telling
me something's not right in here.
69
00:07:47,390 --> 00:07:51,747
So here we are at the very coalface
of the investigation process,
70
00:07:51,910 --> 00:07:57,223
the air heavy with a cloying sense of
death you could almost cut with a kni...
71
00:08:20,830 --> 00:08:25,858
More chaos on the tube as another power
cut hits London during the rush hour...
72
00:08:36,750 --> 00:08:40,060
Hmm... Bag, Sergeant.
73
00:08:44,390 --> 00:08:47,507
What's this? Has he
got hungry in the night?
74
00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:50,707
Nothing so mundane
apparently, by a long way.
75
00:08:59,030 --> 00:09:01,021
Got your penknife?
76
00:09:15,830 --> 00:09:19,539
There we go, then. What does your
bellyache tell you about this?
77
00:09:20,630 --> 00:09:22,780
One, two,
78
00:09:22,950 --> 00:09:26,863
three... four pairs of pyjamas,
79
00:09:27,070 --> 00:09:30,267
all with a walnut
sewn inside the jacket.
80
00:09:49,190 --> 00:09:50,509
Hey!
81
00:09:50,670 --> 00:09:54,424
You've had two public warnings,
but it hasn't penetrated, has it?
82
00:09:54,590 --> 00:09:58,378
- That's a criminal act!
- And the tragedy is I'll get away with it!
83
00:09:58,550 --> 00:10:03,544
We are so overstretched just now. Now the
other side of that tape. I won't tell you again!
84
00:10:11,710 --> 00:10:15,180
What appears to have killed our
friend in there is sleep apnoea -
85
00:10:15,350 --> 00:10:19,343
a cessation of breathing while in a
deep sleep for reasons often unknown
86
00:10:19,510 --> 00:10:24,504
that can be aggravated by obesity and
occasionally lead to congestive heart failure.
87
00:10:24,670 --> 00:10:27,901
A lot of patients only get it
when they lie on their back,
88
00:10:28,070 --> 00:10:32,541
the solution to which is to sew a hard
object like a walnut into your nightshirt
89
00:10:32,710 --> 00:10:35,065
to force you on to your side.
90
00:10:35,230 --> 00:10:38,302
Of course, if it happens
to accidentally slip out...
91
00:10:38,470 --> 00:10:40,461
You're kidding?
92
00:10:40,630 --> 00:10:42,621
I'm impressed.
93
00:10:42,790 --> 00:10:47,784
It was all in that medical book on the bedside
table. Obviously something he suffered from.
94
00:10:47,950 --> 00:10:52,466
The fact that his TV was tuned to
Channel 5 during a Michael Winner season
95
00:10:52,630 --> 00:10:56,100
could account for the nasty
noises coming through the walls.
96
00:10:56,750 --> 00:10:59,344
Is it my imagination
or has he lost weight?
97
00:11:08,590 --> 00:11:11,582
Hey, you've got a job to
do, I've got a job to do.
98
00:11:12,270 --> 00:11:13,749
Aaagh!
99
00:11:14,270 --> 00:11:16,306
Next time we'll have you toe-tagged!
100
00:11:16,510 --> 00:11:20,742
Just because I'm not some
fluffy bit of skirt off the box!
101
00:11:20,950 --> 00:11:24,260
- One of these days, you bastard!
- Yeah? You'll do what?
102
00:11:25,630 --> 00:11:27,621
One of these days.
103
00:11:27,790 --> 00:11:32,261
No, it was nothing in the end. Some old
goat choked in his sleep or something.
104
00:11:32,430 --> 00:11:35,706
So, what's new? Any
post for me or messages?
105
00:11:37,070 --> 00:11:39,061
Nah, whatever, open it.
106
00:11:41,510 --> 00:11:43,501
Say again?
107
00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:46,138
Hang on. I've got to write this down.
108
00:11:49,510 --> 00:11:51,819
"Go to... " Yeah.
109
00:11:52,630 --> 00:11:54,825
I think I know that.
110
00:11:55,630 --> 00:11:57,621
Tomorrow night?
111
00:11:58,270 --> 00:11:59,589
12.30?
112
00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:03,581
Is that all it says?
113
00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:06,905
No, no, I heard you.
114
00:12:08,790 --> 00:12:11,702
Just wondering what the hell it means.
115
00:12:15,630 --> 00:12:17,985
Yes, it's been totally fascinating,
116
00:12:18,150 --> 00:12:22,940
observing first hand how a real detective works
- the amazing Inspector Fell!
117
00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:26,705
- Good?
- Such a sharp mind. Seen nothing like it!
118
00:12:26,870 --> 00:12:30,658
He solved a sealed room mystery
yesterday in, what, five minutes?
119
00:12:30,830 --> 00:12:35,620
What appeared to be this bizarre impossible
murder had the simplest explanation.
120
00:12:35,790 --> 00:12:40,147
So tune in this evening, 9 p.
m. You may find it illuminating.
121
00:12:40,310 --> 00:12:42,824
Is this coming with
us or staying behind?
122
00:12:42,990 --> 00:12:47,142
Gonna need that next week at the theatre.
Just stick it on the truck. Cheers.
123
00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:50,865
- OK, I'll look out for it.
- And I'll see you around.
124
00:12:55,390 --> 00:12:57,824
Adam! How are you feeling?
125
00:12:58,430 --> 00:13:01,900
Yeah, I bet, now you're back
in the land of the living.
126
00:13:02,070 --> 00:13:06,348
Well, these big public endurance
numbers are all a load of tosh really.
127
00:13:06,510 --> 00:13:09,980
You won't be trying another
mad idea like that in a hurry!
128
00:13:10,870 --> 00:13:12,349
Sorry?
129
00:13:13,590 --> 00:13:19,301
For one insane moment there, I thought I heard
you say... Please tell me I was imagining it!
130
00:16:16,070 --> 00:16:19,949
Absolutely not. What, I'm
gonna make a thing like this up?
131
00:16:20,110 --> 00:16:24,069
No way was he there on business.
The guy's wiping off fingerprints!
132
00:16:24,990 --> 00:16:27,106
Are you still there?
133
00:16:27,310 --> 00:16:28,789
Hello!
134
00:16:32,950 --> 00:16:35,464
No, it's cool. I mean, I'm in a box.
135
00:16:36,310 --> 00:16:38,778
God knows what we're
sitting on here, Ray,
136
00:16:38,950 --> 00:16:43,740
but someone knew this was gonna happen and
wanted to drop him in it, and whoever it was...
137
00:16:45,710 --> 00:16:47,701
Holy shit!
138
00:16:54,350 --> 00:16:56,739
Come back, you bastard!
139
00:16:59,670 --> 00:17:02,423
Oh, what is this when it's at home?
140
00:17:02,630 --> 00:17:07,420
Hmm? Oh, yeah, I was very lucky to get hold
of that. They don't usually send copies out.
141
00:17:07,990 --> 00:17:12,427
Not a fully graded print, but I thought
I might cast my eye over it tonight.
142
00:17:12,630 --> 00:17:15,098
I'll get some popcorn in
143
00:17:18,710 --> 00:17:21,270
I'll do it again, all right?
144
00:17:23,430 --> 00:17:27,309
So it's fist, then crotch, in you
go, knee right up hard in the balls.
145
00:17:27,510 --> 00:17:29,785
That's it. Try it again.
146
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:33,385
Ah! Thanks for dropping by.
147
00:17:33,550 --> 00:17:36,542
Just wondered what your
thoughts were on this one.
148
00:17:36,710 --> 00:17:41,704
Woman appears to have topped herself, but
we've got the feeling there might be more to it.
149
00:17:41,870 --> 00:17:46,864
Oh, what did you make of our little curiosity
on Tuesday? The affair of the five walnuts?
150
00:17:47,030 --> 00:17:50,147
Unravelled rather deftly, I
thought, by the local plod.
151
00:17:50,310 --> 00:17:54,940
Hmm. As solutions go, it came virtually
gift-wrapped, wouldn't you say?
152
00:17:55,550 --> 00:18:00,704
Medical book next to the bed marked at a page
that conveniently explained his condition?
153
00:18:01,390 --> 00:18:06,384
Didn't it strike you it was very odd the
way those patches were sewn into his pyjamas?
154
00:18:07,230 --> 00:18:11,462
- It was almost as if...
- OK, studio! Let's take a break.
155
00:18:11,630 --> 00:18:13,825
Run it past me later.
156
00:18:13,990 --> 00:18:18,461
Hello. We start tonight with the
disturbing case of a female lawyer
157
00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:23,499
whose body was found two nights ago hanging
from a light fitting in her North London office.
158
00:18:24,310 --> 00:18:26,824
A suicide? You decide.
159
00:18:32,230 --> 00:18:35,347
Marion Crespo was a
solicitor in her mid-40s
160
00:18:35,510 --> 00:18:40,504
whose work for the Crown over the past ten
years had led to many successful prosecutions.
161
00:18:41,310 --> 00:18:45,781
Sadly, we can only speculate as to the
horrors that took place in this office
162
00:18:45,950 --> 00:18:48,418
in the last few minutes of her life.
163
00:18:48,590 --> 00:18:51,582
As she sat at her desk
working late into the night,
164
00:18:51,750 --> 00:18:55,026
was she disturbed perhaps
by a violent intruder?
165
00:18:55,230 --> 00:19:01,180
Did she lash out in a desperate bid to escape
before being overpowered by her assailant,
166
00:19:01,350 --> 00:19:06,140
who then strung her up from the ceiling to
create the impression she'd hanged herself?
167
00:19:09,350 --> 00:19:13,821
Remember, the images you've just seen
are based on conjecture, not fact,
168
00:19:13,990 --> 00:19:16,379
but bear these points in mind.
169
00:19:16,550 --> 00:19:21,021
One, Marion Crespo was happily
married with no history of depression
170
00:19:21,190 --> 00:19:25,069
and no motive, as far as anyone
could see, to take her own life.
171
00:19:25,230 --> 00:19:28,905
Two, how could she possibly
have hanged herself in the dark,
172
00:19:29,070 --> 00:19:33,541
given that when she was found, the
lights in the room had been switched off?
173
00:19:33,710 --> 00:19:39,307
And three, who had been chewing the lump
of gum that was found in this plant pot?
174
00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:45,544
Gum that, according to cleaning staff, was not
there when they left the premises at... Ugh!
175
00:19:46,750 --> 00:19:50,538
This is disgusting! Has
this been in someone's mouth?
176
00:19:50,710 --> 00:19:55,830
Come on, guys, let's get this sorted. That'll
be ten minutes while we reset the nail polish!
177
00:21:01,830 --> 00:21:03,821
Baxter.
178
00:21:03,990 --> 00:21:08,984
Hi, where are you? I just got back. You'll be
thrilled to know we're back on mains drainage,
179
00:21:09,150 --> 00:21:14,144
subject to a camera test they have to do in the
pipes to see if any roots are coming through,
180
00:21:14,310 --> 00:21:18,542
but the dreaded honey wagon has been
safely dispatched and out of our lives.
181
00:21:19,230 --> 00:21:23,508
Not entirely, Brendan! Where the bloody
hell do you think I'm ringing from?
182
00:21:25,230 --> 00:21:28,506
I've been banging and
shouting myself hoarse in here!
183
00:21:29,230 --> 00:21:34,224
Well, this is a bit of a pickle. I don't know
what to say. He said he was off to Nottingham.
184
00:21:34,430 --> 00:21:36,421
Nottingham?!
185
00:21:44,550 --> 00:21:45,869
Oh!
186
00:21:52,830 --> 00:21:54,309
Yes?
187
00:21:55,190 --> 00:21:57,420
Oh, hi. How are you?
188
00:22:08,510 --> 00:22:11,741
Oh, God, this is service! Thank you.
189
00:22:12,590 --> 00:22:15,980
Unfortunately, I've got
no money on me, nothing.
190
00:22:16,190 --> 00:22:20,502
That's all right. We've been instructed
to ask if you have any plans for dinner.
191
00:22:54,750 --> 00:22:57,901
- Thanks.
- Good luck. See you soon.
192
00:23:04,750 --> 00:23:08,868
You're slumming it. Must be a slow
week. What happened to your wheels?
193
00:23:09,070 --> 00:23:11,823
Temporarily off the road.
194
00:23:12,030 --> 00:23:17,502
What's he up to, gormless tit? I thought after
that coffin stunt, he'd have learnt his lesson.
195
00:23:17,710 --> 00:23:20,429
- Guy got crucified.
- And then some.
196
00:23:20,630 --> 00:23:22,825
No, you misunderstand.
197
00:23:42,750 --> 00:23:44,741
Funny, isn't it?
198
00:23:44,910 --> 00:23:48,380
When people ask me what first
attracted me to this business,
199
00:23:48,550 --> 00:23:52,907
the words "I might one day get to
scrape bird crap off a guy on a cross"
200
00:23:53,070 --> 00:23:55,300
rarely spring to my lips.
201
00:23:55,470 --> 00:23:57,938
Of all the barmy publicity stunts!
202
00:23:58,110 --> 00:24:01,182
If people think I'm a
quitter, they can think again.
203
00:24:01,350 --> 00:24:04,422
This is about the power of
the human will, Jonathan.
204
00:24:04,590 --> 00:24:07,582
To confront a challenge
as old as mankind itself.
205
00:24:07,750 --> 00:24:10,503
Let the world bear
witness this is no trick.
206
00:24:11,230 --> 00:24:14,427
The triumph of belief and
determination over adversity.
207
00:24:14,590 --> 00:24:18,663
And this time, I'm not gonna
give them any reason to stop me.
208
00:24:19,190 --> 00:24:24,184
Are you seriously planning to stay up here for
seven days? You'll go slowly out of your mind.
209
00:24:25,070 --> 00:24:30,064
Can you move those two girls away, please?
I'm in danger of seeing down their blouses.
210
00:24:31,390 --> 00:24:33,745
See? It's started.
211
00:24:51,070 --> 00:24:54,904
You do that show with
what's-her-name? Blondie on the beat?
212
00:24:55,070 --> 00:24:59,541
- I try not to make a habit of it.
- You might want to give her some advice.
213
00:24:59,710 --> 00:25:02,702
To be very careful about
the company she keeps.
214
00:25:02,870 --> 00:25:05,384
That lady lawyer they
found in a noose...
215
00:25:06,470 --> 00:25:08,984
I know who did it.
216
00:25:09,190 --> 00:25:11,704
And I've got it on film.
217
00:25:12,670 --> 00:25:17,460
Slight problem at the moment. It's in the
boot of my car and my car's been nicked.
218
00:25:17,630 --> 00:25:20,428
Without evidence, no
one's gonna believe me.
219
00:25:20,590 --> 00:25:25,106
- Either way, shouldn't you go to the police?
- That's where I have a problem.
220
00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:31,741
Mmm!
221
00:25:32,630 --> 00:25:35,906
One of my late wife's
many fine bequests.
222
00:25:36,710 --> 00:25:39,702
I can give you the
recipe. Anyway, thanks.
223
00:25:41,070 --> 00:25:44,346
For giving me a reason not
to eat off my lap tonight.
224
00:25:44,550 --> 00:25:49,260
Well, it beats an evening in
staring at my husband's colon.
225
00:25:49,470 --> 00:25:51,779
Let's not go there.
226
00:25:51,950 --> 00:25:55,260
And it's been great to
fill in a bit of background.
227
00:25:55,470 --> 00:26:00,464
God, it's got to be a nightmare, your job.
Headless bodies first thing in the morning?
228
00:26:01,110 --> 00:26:05,581
I suppose I'm fascinated to know what
sort of person can cope with all that.
229
00:26:06,310 --> 00:26:09,507
Someone who can take death
in their stride, I suppose.
230
00:26:10,470 --> 00:26:13,462
Oh, sorry. Can I...?
231
00:26:18,390 --> 00:26:20,381
Hello. Carla Borrego.
232
00:26:21,670 --> 00:26:25,185
Actually, not that convenient,
Jonathan. As it happens, I...
233
00:26:29,830 --> 00:26:31,309
What?
234
00:26:33,990 --> 00:26:35,981
When was this?
235
00:26:40,190 --> 00:26:42,784
So what exactly are you telling me?
236
00:26:46,510 --> 00:26:49,343
Right. I think I've got that.
237
00:26:50,070 --> 00:26:52,903
And... I'll probably
call you later, then.
238
00:26:53,630 --> 00:26:55,621
OK. Bye.
239
00:26:58,670 --> 00:27:01,662
Well, I suppose I'd better
be getting along now really.
240
00:27:01,830 --> 00:27:04,219
When you've had your coffee?
241
00:27:04,390 --> 00:27:06,187
Oh, thanks.
242
00:27:06,350 --> 00:27:09,547
It'll be hot.
243
00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:26,147
Yes...
244
00:27:26,310 --> 00:27:28,778
Death is a big subject.
245
00:27:29,590 --> 00:27:32,582
- It is.
- Too big for most people.
246
00:27:34,710 --> 00:27:36,701
It frightens them.
247
00:27:37,670 --> 00:27:40,468
So they close their eyes.
248
00:27:44,110 --> 00:27:46,101
Box it away.
249
00:27:46,990 --> 00:27:50,903
And try to forget that
it's going to happen.
250
00:27:52,110 --> 00:27:54,670
Only one day we all have to be prepared.
251
00:27:54,830 --> 00:27:57,822
You know, to open that box.
252
00:27:59,230 --> 00:28:01,221
And maybe...
253
00:28:02,430 --> 00:28:04,898
...we shouldn't be
scared of what's inside.
254
00:28:09,190 --> 00:28:12,387
Maybe we...
255
00:28:17,430 --> 00:28:20,024
Sorry. You're... busy.
256
00:28:20,990 --> 00:28:23,788
- I'll just...
- No, I was just going, so...
257
00:28:23,950 --> 00:28:28,102
You got my message, then? A
phone call would have been nice.
258
00:28:28,310 --> 00:28:31,268
I've had things to do.
And I'm here, right?
259
00:28:31,470 --> 00:28:33,028
Right.
260
00:28:33,190 --> 00:28:38,787
You know, my daughter and I have things to
discuss, so let's see if we can get you a cab.
261
00:28:45,150 --> 00:28:49,143
Lovely. You're so kind. You'll get this
back first thing tomorrow. Goodnight.
262
00:28:49,310 --> 00:28:51,107
Goodnight.
263
00:28:56,550 --> 00:28:59,747
Actually, um, just here will be great.
264
00:29:00,710 --> 00:29:02,029
Thanks.
265
00:29:15,710 --> 00:29:18,178
Why didn't you tell
me about this, Jessica?
266
00:29:18,350 --> 00:29:22,502
Because it's not true is why!
I don't know what more you want!
267
00:29:22,710 --> 00:29:27,261
It's like everything you asked
of me, you know, I did it.
268
00:29:27,470 --> 00:29:33,306
This is... I don't know what this is! And
I don't know why we have to even discuss it!
269
00:29:33,470 --> 00:29:38,669
Because we have a contract,
Jessica. Both of us! With Mr G.
270
00:29:39,510 --> 00:29:43,788
And I think we might just care
what HE'S gonna make of it all.
271
00:29:49,150 --> 00:29:51,425
Yeah, I'm sorry, OK?
272
00:29:51,590 --> 00:29:53,581
But you know...
273
00:29:55,670 --> 00:29:57,979
I have to do this.
274
00:30:40,990 --> 00:30:43,504
Hello! Is anyone about?
275
00:30:44,590 --> 00:30:48,026
- Shut the door and get over there!
- Are you Dick Turpin
276
00:30:48,230 --> 00:30:50,698
Just watch where you're treading!
277
00:30:50,870 --> 00:30:53,782
Like a Tracey Emin
retrospective! God spare us!
278
00:30:54,470 --> 00:30:59,260
After what you told me on the phone, it
all started to snowball suddenly in my mind.
279
00:30:59,430 --> 00:31:02,945
That gum they found in the plant pot
- HE chews gum.
280
00:31:03,710 --> 00:31:09,501
And if there's any here in his rubbish, we could
get it checked for DNA and see if they match.
281
00:31:09,710 --> 00:31:13,908
And while I'm doing that, there's a
whole file of stuff on her over there,
282
00:31:14,070 --> 00:31:17,540
our lynched lady lawyer,
which might yield a clue.
283
00:31:18,430 --> 00:31:20,944
So you want to make yourself useful?
284
00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:25,858
I wasn't half relieved when that
daughter of his showed up tonight!
285
00:31:26,070 --> 00:31:29,983
Just as he was giving me this weird
number about preparing for death.
286
00:31:30,870 --> 00:31:34,988
Then later on when I snuck back,
he was waving these papers at her
287
00:31:35,150 --> 00:31:39,666
and going on about a contract
with someone called Mr G.
288
00:31:40,910 --> 00:31:43,663
But what was creepy, I don't know...
289
00:31:44,310 --> 00:31:46,983
He'd got like this
small wooden casket...
290
00:31:47,630 --> 00:31:51,418
he was just about to open
which I can't explain...
291
00:31:52,110 --> 00:31:55,659
It felt like it had some
kind of strange power.
292
00:31:55,870 --> 00:31:58,179
Like the one in "Hellraiser"
293
00:31:58,350 --> 00:32:02,628
whose demonic porthole spewed
forth the progeny of the damned?
294
00:32:04,150 --> 00:32:09,668
If we could raise our game above the level of
a school playground, I'm trying to be sensible!
295
00:32:10,350 --> 00:32:15,868
Coming from someone looking for spearmint
up a chicken's bottom, that's sound advice
296
00:32:16,070 --> 00:32:20,063
I think we need to concentrate
on essentials here, don't we?
297
00:32:20,590 --> 00:32:25,584
If he did go there deliberately to kill
her, who would have known about it in advance
298
00:32:25,750 --> 00:32:30,028
and wanted to tip off the press,
so it would all be caught on camera?
299
00:32:30,670 --> 00:32:32,183
What?
300
00:32:36,550 --> 00:32:42,420
March '87, she put together a very strong case
against a couple of East End professionals,
301
00:32:42,590 --> 00:32:46,902
Jason Lee and Patrick MacDonald,
leading to their conviction.
302
00:32:47,790 --> 00:32:52,261
A case in which she was assisted by
an up-and-coming detective sergeant.
303
00:32:52,790 --> 00:32:54,781
Adrian Fell.
304
00:32:54,990 --> 00:32:58,460
- That is interesting.
- But not as interesting as this.
305
00:32:59,030 --> 00:33:04,388
It says it all hinged on the word of a former
associate of the defendants, Derek Crozier.
306
00:33:05,550 --> 00:33:09,543
He turned Queen's evidence in
return for immunity from prosecution
307
00:33:09,710 --> 00:33:14,545
and subsequent witness protection
involving a complete change of identity.
308
00:33:15,230 --> 00:33:18,620
A few pounds lighter in those
days, but what do you think?
309
00:33:19,350 --> 00:33:21,784
God! It is him, isn't it?
310
00:33:23,990 --> 00:33:26,379
The guy with the walnuts.
311
00:33:30,390 --> 00:33:33,109
Why do I feel guilty when you do this?
312
00:33:33,270 --> 00:33:35,261
Because it's completely illegal?
313
00:33:47,030 --> 00:33:51,182
So what's our thinking now? He
didn't die a natural death at all?
314
00:33:51,350 --> 00:33:53,739
It's a hell of a coincidence.
315
00:33:53,910 --> 00:33:58,700
Two people who helped put those gangsters
behind bars both come to a sticky end
316
00:33:58,870 --> 00:34:01,065
in the space of 24 hours.
317
00:34:02,150 --> 00:34:04,345
Which is why I think...
318
00:34:06,750 --> 00:34:11,585
I need to carry out a little
experiment with these pyjamas.
319
00:34:15,710 --> 00:34:18,304
Now, how tall are we
saying this guy was?
320
00:34:20,190 --> 00:34:22,624
He was more your height than mine.
321
00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:24,587
I guess.
322
00:34:24,750 --> 00:34:28,868
In which case... think
you could do the honours?
323
00:34:49,630 --> 00:34:52,463
- So, are you nearly done?
- Done.
324
00:34:56,790 --> 00:35:02,262
I'm not sure it's gonna work so well with
the trousers all bunched up around the back.
325
00:35:04,270 --> 00:35:06,261
We'll just...
326
00:35:13,510 --> 00:35:16,900
- And how is it?
- Well, I can feel it, but...
327
00:35:17,070 --> 00:35:22,383
It won't exactly keep you awake because
it's in the small of your back, whereas...
328
00:35:24,630 --> 00:35:26,621
But here...
329
00:35:27,630 --> 00:35:29,109
Aagh!
330
00:35:29,270 --> 00:35:33,263
That would definitely
drive me over on to my side.
331
00:35:33,470 --> 00:35:35,825
Which is meant to be the point.
332
00:35:36,470 --> 00:35:38,984
So he wouldn't risk choking.
333
00:35:39,670 --> 00:35:41,661
Which suggests...?
334
00:35:41,830 --> 00:35:47,700
Whoever set this up to disguise the fact
they probably suffocated him with a pillow...
335
00:35:48,830 --> 00:35:51,344
...didn't totally think it through.
336
00:36:03,470 --> 00:36:05,700
But the bolts on the door...?
337
00:36:05,870 --> 00:36:08,384
Almost certainly drawn
shut from the other side.
338
00:36:13,030 --> 00:36:18,388
A couple of bits of twine soaked in
paraffin that could be burnt off afterwards.
339
00:36:22,030 --> 00:36:25,625
- Page one stuff really.
- To a sealed room specialist.
340
00:36:30,230 --> 00:36:32,983
- Time we were in bed.
- Yeah.
341
00:36:36,950 --> 00:36:40,943
It might pay to just sit on this
for a bit until things are clearer.
342
00:36:41,110 --> 00:36:46,628
Till we can get that gum or come up with a
name of someone here that begins with "G".
343
00:36:50,870 --> 00:36:54,658
Anyway... I'm taking you where now?
344
00:36:55,310 --> 00:36:57,346
Back to the hotel presumably...
345
00:37:20,590 --> 00:37:23,058
Darling, we're a bit late. I'm sorry.
346
00:37:23,230 --> 00:37:27,746
What time did you crawl in last night?
You were dead to the world when I left.
347
00:37:27,910 --> 00:37:30,424
I know, but we think we may have...
348
00:37:30,590 --> 00:37:35,106
You said something on the phone about
a new angle on that body in the bedroom,
349
00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:39,821
which we can run past the Inspector,
who had a 12 o'clock window this morning.
350
00:37:40,030 --> 00:37:42,544
So if you want to just
park your bottoms...
351
00:37:42,710 --> 00:37:46,225
Of course, I don't think you've
met our gentle genius yet.
352
00:37:46,430 --> 00:37:49,422
Jonathan Creek, the man
who can re-route reality.
353
00:37:49,590 --> 00:37:51,660
No, but may I say
354
00:37:51,830 --> 00:37:56,108
that your work on the Forrest Sweetland
murder impressed a great many of us.
355
00:37:57,910 --> 00:38:00,378
So what have you got for me?
356
00:38:01,630 --> 00:38:04,588
Well, to my way of thinking,
357
00:38:04,750 --> 00:38:09,665
those things in his pyjamas had been
sewn in much too far down to really work,
358
00:38:09,830 --> 00:38:12,298
and I don't know about
the sleep apnoea thing.
359
00:38:12,510 --> 00:38:17,903
But I cross-checked with a
specialist. It does happen. Except...
360
00:38:18,110 --> 00:38:22,228
there's more, isn't there,
that you've found out here
361
00:38:22,430 --> 00:38:25,149
you don't want to share with me.
362
00:38:25,310 --> 00:38:27,301
Mr Baxter!
363
00:38:27,670 --> 00:38:29,945
I'm really sorry, sir, but I...
364
00:38:30,110 --> 00:38:32,101
What is it?
365
00:38:56,950 --> 00:39:01,740
OK, you're going to take her
word for this against mine?
366
00:39:01,950 --> 00:39:05,465
It's not a question of
my word. It's on camera.
367
00:39:06,390 --> 00:39:11,510
Why do you think I waited three days till some
arse finished joyriding round with the evidence?
368
00:39:11,710 --> 00:39:14,270
I mean, how does it go here exactly?
369
00:39:14,470 --> 00:39:20,500
The killer comes in, strings her up, wearing
an Inspector Fell mask from the local joke shop?
370
00:39:20,710 --> 00:39:24,988
- Jesus Christ Almighty!
- Yes, OK, Herbie! Enough!
371
00:39:27,710 --> 00:39:29,701
All right.
372
00:39:30,910 --> 00:39:33,105
Here's the whole deal.
373
00:39:33,590 --> 00:39:38,141
Jessica, my daughter,
has had some problems.
374
00:39:39,790 --> 00:39:44,784
Chemical dependency, buying and
selling. Well, how often does it happen?
375
00:39:44,990 --> 00:39:48,983
She picked the wrong friends,
they fell on her like vultures.
376
00:39:49,190 --> 00:39:51,704
In the space of a year, she was a ghost.
377
00:39:52,550 --> 00:39:58,546
Well, between us, it took a
lot of pain, a lot of work,
378
00:39:58,710 --> 00:40:02,339
but she got through it.
379
00:40:02,510 --> 00:40:07,538
The bench was lenient, but she knew what
to expect if she ever went back, so...
380
00:40:07,750 --> 00:40:11,425
Spool forward 18 months to last Monday.
381
00:40:12,750 --> 00:40:16,504
This woman Marion Crespo
sends me a letter...
382
00:40:17,310 --> 00:40:22,828
advising me that certain sworn statements have
come into her possession about my daughter.
383
00:40:23,790 --> 00:40:27,100
Basically, a major drugs
bust she was handling
384
00:40:27,310 --> 00:40:30,302
and Jess had been named
as one of the suppliers.
385
00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:35,260
And it might be in my interest to drop by
for a discreet inspection of the documents.
386
00:40:35,430 --> 00:40:37,990
So I get there and find the place empty.
387
00:40:38,150 --> 00:40:41,381
Naturally, I'm not gonna sit
around twiddling my thumbs.
388
00:40:42,070 --> 00:40:45,699
You found that bit of gum I dumped
in the plant pot in the corner.
389
00:40:46,390 --> 00:40:48,346
Big deal.
390
00:40:48,510 --> 00:40:53,061
So, yeah, I had a sniff around to
locate the material in question,
391
00:40:53,270 --> 00:40:58,390
which, as she said, isn't gonna
look good on my daughter's CV.
392
00:41:00,870 --> 00:41:03,862
No point now waiting for
this person to show up
393
00:41:04,070 --> 00:41:08,666
and I don't particularly want to
advertise the fact that I'd been there.
394
00:41:09,350 --> 00:41:14,026
All I could think about now
was, "How did this happen
395
00:41:14,190 --> 00:41:17,307
"when she had given me
every reason to trust her?"
396
00:41:17,470 --> 00:41:19,938
I don't know why we have
to even discuss this!
397
00:41:20,950 --> 00:41:23,339
What do you want me to say?
398
00:41:24,350 --> 00:41:27,581
How much fun did you have
putting these together?
399
00:41:27,790 --> 00:41:30,987
Can't you see this
whole thing's a fit-up?
400
00:41:31,150 --> 00:41:34,984
Someone who wants to see us both suffer.
401
00:41:40,230 --> 00:41:42,186
Don't believe me, do you?
402
00:41:45,550 --> 00:41:47,541
Not one of you.
403
00:42:03,190 --> 00:42:08,708
So, I suppose... What do you think? He shut
her up because she was trying to blackmail him?
404
00:42:09,830 --> 00:42:12,469
Something he said in
there... Did you notice?
405
00:42:13,270 --> 00:42:18,264
That gum he'd been chewing was found in
the potted palm to the right of the door.
406
00:42:18,430 --> 00:42:22,742
But what did he say? That he dumped
it in the plant pot in the corner.
407
00:42:22,950 --> 00:42:28,070
The one near her desk? Why would anyone
move a lump of gum from one pot to another?
408
00:42:29,510 --> 00:42:31,899
That's a very good question.
409
00:42:32,070 --> 00:42:36,825
That's the kind of piddling detail that
could turn this whole business inside out.
410
00:42:40,950 --> 00:42:42,941
Jonathan Creek.
411
00:42:43,630 --> 00:42:44,949
Oh, don't!
412
00:42:48,550 --> 00:42:51,542
If it weren't for the
unfortunate iconic imagery here,
413
00:42:51,710 --> 00:42:55,703
this could be straight out of a
Merrie Melodies cartoon of the 1940s!
414
00:42:55,870 --> 00:42:57,861
Jonathan, help me!
415
00:42:58,030 --> 00:43:01,659
Got your prime comic
ingredients all nicely in place,
416
00:43:01,830 --> 00:43:05,948
the precariously poised fall
guy with steaming pile of manure.
417
00:43:06,150 --> 00:43:09,381
What would Tex Avery
have done here, I wonder?
418
00:43:22,710 --> 00:43:24,428
Stop!
419
00:43:33,550 --> 00:43:38,101
There's always a chance he's right, I suppose
- she did fake those pictures.
420
00:43:38,310 --> 00:43:41,188
- Hmm...
- I can't help feeling
421
00:43:41,350 --> 00:43:43,625
he's hiding something from us, even now.
422
00:43:44,510 --> 00:43:47,547
- Heave! Heave!
- Come on!
423
00:43:49,470 --> 00:43:54,100
He doesn't care, does he, your man,
I'll give him that, who he offends?
424
00:43:55,150 --> 00:43:57,266
These days, that's virtually nobody.
425
00:43:57,430 --> 00:44:00,945
In fact, this whole exercise
has been... What would you say?
426
00:44:01,110 --> 00:44:03,385
Monumentally pointless?
427
00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:16,139
On the other hand, has it made
some things blindingly clear?
428
00:44:16,350 --> 00:44:21,629
Well done, guys. I think I'm just
about, yeah, pretty damn perpendicular.
429
00:44:21,790 --> 00:44:24,702
Whoaaaaa!
430
00:44:25,190 --> 00:44:28,899
Careful with him. He could
have broken his spine.
431
00:44:30,390 --> 00:44:33,621
Just go now, all of
you. Leave it with us.
432
00:44:46,190 --> 00:44:51,583
So... dare I ask what it was that
suddenly came to you back then?
433
00:44:52,110 --> 00:44:53,429
Hmm?
434
00:44:55,110 --> 00:44:57,578
Oh, yeah, well, it could be nothing.
435
00:44:58,550 --> 00:45:02,987
Or it could be I'm just starting
to see what Mr Fell is all about.
436
00:45:03,150 --> 00:45:08,907
In which case, I'm thinking all roads
lead back to Marion Crespo's office,
437
00:45:09,070 --> 00:45:11,425
where the key to this whole affair...
438
00:45:19,750 --> 00:45:22,503
Jonathan? Oh, God!
439
00:45:23,750 --> 00:45:25,741
Adam?
440
00:45:25,910 --> 00:45:29,744
- What the hell?
- Who was on that stretcher, then?
441
00:45:29,950 --> 00:45:34,023
Oh, no. They couldn't possibly have...
442
00:46:05,630 --> 00:46:07,700
OK, Sergeant.
443
00:46:09,630 --> 00:46:11,109
Thanks.
444
00:46:29,470 --> 00:46:31,461
What did they tell you?
445
00:46:31,630 --> 00:46:33,382
Everything.
446
00:46:33,550 --> 00:46:36,667
And... what do you believe?
447
00:46:38,510 --> 00:46:41,183
What do you want me to believe?
448
00:46:48,350 --> 00:46:52,502
Yes, this is a message for
Sergeant Bryant from Jonathan Creek.
449
00:46:52,670 --> 00:46:55,264
We're on our way to
Marion Crespo's office.
450
00:46:55,470 --> 00:46:59,588
It'll take us about an hour. If
you've got a second to meet us there...
451
00:47:40,910 --> 00:47:42,229
Ah.
452
00:47:43,030 --> 00:47:46,784
Now, now, now. I think that
answers our first question.
453
00:48:30,510 --> 00:48:34,344
So if you're saying he put
the gum in this pot here...
454
00:48:34,510 --> 00:48:37,946
how did it end up over there?
455
00:48:38,150 --> 00:48:41,779
- It doesn't make any sense.
- On the contrary,
456
00:48:41,950 --> 00:48:46,978
if you look at what actually happened
here, what he said makes perfect sense.
457
00:48:48,830 --> 00:48:53,381
Because it defines the whole,
thoroughly nasty, premeditated operation.
458
00:49:12,030 --> 00:49:16,865
I wouldn't mind a clue now about what it
is I'm supposed to be feeling excited about.
459
00:49:17,070 --> 00:49:20,187
You'll be telling me next
what was in that box of his.
460
00:49:20,390 --> 00:49:24,906
No, but from the way you told it,
I can make a pretty smart guess.
461
00:49:27,390 --> 00:49:31,383
Come on. Haven't you
worked out who Mr G is yet?
462
00:49:33,270 --> 00:49:38,390
Why Inspector Fell might have wanted to
prepare you for death the other night?
463
00:49:40,710 --> 00:49:43,065
Like he said, nowadays it's the last...
464
00:49:53,470 --> 00:49:55,745
Aaagh! Ohhh!
465
00:49:56,990 --> 00:50:00,983
Sorry to spoil your fun, Mr
MacDonald, but you are nicked.
466
00:50:10,430 --> 00:50:14,946
Tempting as it is to put this down to the
press going about their normal business,
467
00:50:15,110 --> 00:50:17,908
peddlers of lies and distortion,
468
00:50:18,110 --> 00:50:22,626
Hattie Baron, as it turns out, was
just part of a much bigger set-up here,
469
00:50:22,790 --> 00:50:27,864
a set-up we're now aware stemmed from the
nastiest piece of work in this whole affair.
470
00:50:29,830 --> 00:50:33,823
If I'd recognised Crozier in that
bed, I might have got there sooner.
471
00:50:34,630 --> 00:50:37,827
Just to say we're on our way
to Marion Crespo's office.
472
00:50:37,990 --> 00:50:41,505
Once it clicked and I picked up
your call on the office voicemail,
473
00:50:41,670 --> 00:50:44,468
oh, yes, lovely Patrick James MacDonald.
474
00:50:45,070 --> 00:50:49,063
Closest we'll ever get probably
to a real-life Napoleon of crime,
475
00:50:49,230 --> 00:50:53,826
finally nailed, along with his
chum Jason Lee, in March 1987,
476
00:50:53,990 --> 00:50:58,984
on a fairly breathtaking raft of charges that
appeared to have put them both away for life.
477
00:50:59,150 --> 00:51:02,347
But I think you've got an
update for us, Sergeant.
478
00:51:02,510 --> 00:51:06,947
3rd of June, '92, Lee
appears to have lost the plot
479
00:51:07,110 --> 00:51:10,864
and strung himself up with
some knotted tea towels.
480
00:51:11,070 --> 00:51:15,268
Macdonald, helped by a smart legal
team, managed to swing an early parole.
481
00:51:15,430 --> 00:51:19,264
Ended up back in circulation
just over a month ago.
482
00:51:19,430 --> 00:51:21,864
Vowing, we can assume, to get even
483
00:51:22,070 --> 00:51:25,460
with three people who, by
now, he didn't like very much -
484
00:51:25,630 --> 00:51:29,543
the key witness at his trial, the
lawyer who put the case together
485
00:51:29,750 --> 00:51:32,344
and the young detective
who brought him in.
486
00:51:32,510 --> 00:51:37,106
Mr Rumpole didn't hang around very long
- victim of a rare sleeping disorder,
487
00:51:37,270 --> 00:51:39,579
we were meant to believe,
488
00:51:39,750 --> 00:51:43,584
while Ms Crespo goes the way of his
late colleague at the end of a rope.
489
00:51:43,750 --> 00:51:48,585
And to round it all off, what could be
sweeter than to see the police officer
490
00:51:48,750 --> 00:51:51,389
put away for a murder he didn't commit?
491
00:51:52,310 --> 00:51:55,780
So a couple of letters go out,
one to get you into this office
492
00:51:55,950 --> 00:51:58,942
to check out those rigged
statements about your daughter,
493
00:51:59,110 --> 00:52:04,184
the other to a hungry press photographer
who'll make the most of whatever she sees
494
00:52:04,350 --> 00:52:08,741
from that stairwell in
the building opposite.
495
00:52:10,990 --> 00:52:13,140
What did she see?
496
00:52:14,270 --> 00:52:17,785
Answer
- exactly what she was meant to.
497
00:52:19,670 --> 00:52:24,141
The whole point being the position
of the observer here was critical.
498
00:52:26,030 --> 00:52:29,625
In the face of fairly damning evidence,
499
00:52:29,790 --> 00:52:34,068
a chance remark about some chewing
gum threw up a possible lifeline.
500
00:52:34,790 --> 00:52:40,262
How do we square the fact it was thrown in the
pot in the corner, but found in this one here?
501
00:52:40,470 --> 00:52:45,544
Who's gonna move a bit of gum or a potted
plant around after you'd left the room, and why?
502
00:52:46,390 --> 00:52:48,858
Unless, of course, they didn't.
503
00:52:49,390 --> 00:52:52,780
And the gum was found
exactly where you threw it.
504
00:52:54,070 --> 00:52:59,747
In a plant pot in the corner, only
not the corner we were thinking of...
505
00:53:00,590 --> 00:53:05,345
the whole objective here being to
place you at the scene of a murder
506
00:53:05,510 --> 00:53:07,865
without you realising it.
507
00:53:12,510 --> 00:53:17,265
Let's say the deed's been
done an hour or so beforehand.
508
00:53:27,310 --> 00:53:33,340
Then, crucially, a thin partition
goes up to screen off the body.
509
00:53:33,950 --> 00:53:38,023
Decorators have already been planted
there tarting up the premises,
510
00:53:38,190 --> 00:53:42,980
so a few bits of plasterboard knocking
about aren't going to attract much attention.
511
00:53:44,070 --> 00:53:47,904
Vital, of course, for you to be
discovered at just the right moment,
512
00:53:48,070 --> 00:53:52,666
which would be down to that security officer
she had to wait around for on the stairs.
513
00:54:00,390 --> 00:54:03,541
All you see when you
walk in is an empty room,
514
00:54:03,750 --> 00:54:07,982
but to Hattie and her camera,
the scene appears quite different.
515
00:54:13,750 --> 00:54:17,379
For a bit of dressing,
they re-hang a few pictures.
516
00:54:18,070 --> 00:54:21,699
A not very flattering
cartoon about the police
517
00:54:21,910 --> 00:54:25,220
I imagine caused that sneer
just before you left the room.
518
00:54:30,670 --> 00:54:33,309
They made it all good again afterwards.
519
00:54:35,670 --> 00:54:39,663
Apart from a few tell-tale holes
where they had braced the panels.
520
00:54:43,110 --> 00:54:48,423
Of course, the irony here is if we'd had a
clearer take on the fundamentals in your life...
521
00:54:49,350 --> 00:54:52,865
we'd have seen how really
unlikely these charges were.
522
00:54:55,750 --> 00:55:00,744
A tiny trigger point this morning which,
looking back, was probably quite significant.
523
00:55:00,910 --> 00:55:03,424
So the killer comes in, strings her up,
524
00:55:03,590 --> 00:55:08,061
wearing an Inspector Fell mask from the
local joke shop. Jesus Christ Almighty!
525
00:55:08,270 --> 00:55:11,342
Yes, OK, Herbie! Enough!
526
00:55:11,510 --> 00:55:17,267
It wasn't the hectoring tone, was it, cut
through you at that point like a knife?
527
00:55:19,230 --> 00:55:21,221
But the words.
528
00:55:21,870 --> 00:55:25,101
Because you've never made
anything of your faith.
529
00:55:25,310 --> 00:55:30,304
In a country where these days a mock
crucifixion would barely raise an eyebrow
530
00:55:30,470 --> 00:55:35,305
and in a job where a committed
Christian runs the risk of ridicule.
531
00:55:37,790 --> 00:55:39,781
Like the rest of us,
532
00:55:39,950 --> 00:55:43,738
he's had some bad press up
there over the years, but...
533
00:55:43,910 --> 00:55:46,060
Mr G?
534
00:55:49,470 --> 00:55:53,622
If you get past all the
rant and the ritual...
535
00:55:54,350 --> 00:55:56,864
past all the religion basically...
536
00:55:57,550 --> 00:56:01,623
to what's good, worth
building your life around.
537
00:56:03,230 --> 00:56:06,347
I mean, yeah... you know...
538
00:56:07,710 --> 00:56:10,782
we could all do a lot worse.
539
00:56:23,630 --> 00:56:27,862
I swear on the Holy Bible
that I'm telling the truth.
540
00:57:00,430 --> 00:57:05,458
Can you put hope in a
box... and lock it away?
541
00:57:10,510 --> 00:57:14,628
Well, someone certainly
looked after you today, eh?
542
00:57:16,710 --> 00:57:18,860
They have.
543
00:57:19,750 --> 00:57:21,741
And thanks.
544
00:57:26,070 --> 00:57:31,224
Good God above, Brendan. This is possibly
the most revolting thing I've ever seen.
545
00:57:31,390 --> 00:57:36,305
This is what you spent the last
three nights glued to after supper?
546
00:57:36,510 --> 00:57:41,630
It's not "Fantastic Voyage". What
did you expect? Donald Pleasance?
547
00:57:41,830 --> 00:57:44,742
I think they lowered
in a cable, didn't they?
548
00:57:45,750 --> 00:57:47,149
There you go, then.
549
00:57:47,310 --> 00:57:51,906
Basic mechanics of the Marion Crespo thing,
and I've scribbled a couple of diagrams there.
550
00:57:52,790 --> 00:57:58,626
Thanks. That'll be just the ticket.
You mock me, people, but listen to this.
551
00:57:58,790 --> 00:58:02,942
"We thought you would like to know that
the endoscopy of your transverse colon
552
00:58:03,150 --> 00:58:06,142
"was judged to be the
perfect archetype of its kind
553
00:58:06,310 --> 00:58:10,940
"and was first choice for inclusion
in our reference library. " Yes!
554
00:58:11,110 --> 00:58:15,467
"In addition, the panel were impressed by
an earlier study of your Fallopian tubes,
555
00:58:15,670 --> 00:58:17,900
"which was also of exceptional... "
556
00:58:18,870 --> 00:58:22,101
- Fallopian tubes?
- Yeah. This envelope...
557
00:58:22,710 --> 00:58:25,747
Think they got you mixed
up with someone else?
558
00:58:25,910 --> 00:58:29,505
So this wasn't even your
video in the first place?
559
00:58:29,670 --> 00:58:33,026
How did that happen? Where
did you get that tape from?
560
00:58:33,230 --> 00:58:38,862
- It was on top of the TV where you left it.
- I left it on the table here.
561
00:58:40,110 --> 00:58:43,102
THAT is the video survey
they did on our drain.
562
00:58:43,830 --> 00:58:48,950
They feed a camera down the pipe and...
That's what you think my insides look like?
563
00:58:49,150 --> 00:58:52,381
With tree roots poking through
and all that sludge and...
564
00:58:52,590 --> 00:58:55,388
- I'm not an expert!
- Not an expert?
565
00:58:56,630 --> 00:58:59,144
Never mind. Come on.
We're going to this do.
566
00:58:59,310 --> 00:59:03,826
To which you're more than welcome,
Jonathan. The ITV winter press launch.
567
00:59:03,990 --> 00:59:07,539
Brendan's got four new prime-time
shows about to be previewed.
568
00:59:08,230 --> 00:59:12,223
Unless you'd rather stay and
stare at the contents of a sewer!
569
00:59:14,950 --> 00:59:16,702
No contest, Brendan.
