- Mr Crabtree! - What happened?

I'll call an ambulance. You'll have to go with her, mate.

Dad. Please don't hang up.

He wants you to get Julie out of the hospital.

If you call the police he said he's going to hurt me and the baby...

Lucy!

Phone the police, she's dead.

My daughter. Where is she?

I got a message from my brother.

And I knew that if I collapsed, then you'd have to bring me here. But that is it.

- Have we got an ID? - Driver's licence. Daniel Hope.

How well do you know Mr Hope?

What's happened? - We found a body.

What the hell are you doing?

- A prisoner's absconded. - So?

It's Julie Hope. Daniel Hope's sister.

Jeff Crabtree. I'm Murdoch's boss.

He's had a tough year. His wife died.

- All I want is for Dan to let Lucy go. - Don't pretend you're on my side.

I'm in a flat in Old Trafford. 710 Cherry Tree Gardens.

It's Cherry Tree Gardens. Jules used to rent a flat there.

Let's just you and me have a look.

Urgent, DS Reinhardt. We've got a body.

Lucy!

Lucy!

Where is she?

DS Reinhardt to control. Immediate backup to Cherry Tree Gardens, Old Trafford.

Police!

Right. That's far enough.

I want both of you up against the wall. Now.

DS Reinhardt to control...

Go ahead, control. - Stand back, please!

Stand back against the wall...

Sorry.

Bastard!

Richard?

Richard?

Hello?

Sarge?

The body... it's Crabtree. Murdoch's boss.

What the hell were you thinking?

Kicking doors down up there like some sort of crap Indiana Jones?

Well, I got caught.

What do you want me to say? I'm sorry... - You just went barging in without thinking!

You put yourself, and me, in danger.

D'you not understand that nobody wants to work with a copper like that?

What should I have done? Just let them go? - You did let them go. They've gone.

You had absolutely no control over the situation.

Got it. Next time I'll make a risk assessment.

This is what I'm talking about. You're right, every other bugger's wrong.

We had them cornered. You should have waited for backup.

You were my backup. - Oh...

Well, I'm sorry I'm not Jessica Ennis.

I'm sorry, Sue, but I do get a bit confused.

One minute you're telling me I shouldn't stick to the book, next you're saying...

No, you just use your common sense!

It was two on one, we've got a dead body over there, we don't know who killed him!

And call me Sue again, you little bollock. I dare you!

Alright, alright.

I'm sorry.

No. Forget it. I want you back at the station.

Oh, come on!

Sarge, just give me another chance.

I'm begging you.

Please.

Hold my hand.

Walk steady, keep your head down.

Who fell? - I don't know.

Think it was Dan? - No.

Where's Lucy?

Why d'you keep asking me, Dave? D'you think I'm playing some sort of game?

I think you know exactly what you're doing.

We should have gone straight to the bloody police.

Yeah, we should've. But we didn't.

Look, this is what's going to happen. You are going to go down for what we've done.

That copper that got run over...

and whatever happened to that person that fell

we're going to be blamed for it, right? That nice little life you had - it's gone!

So you make your mind up. Decide what you want. Now.

I want to find my daughter. - Well, we can't do that if we're banged up.

I don't think you've got a clue where Dan is. And he could be anywhere.

See, I don't give a toss what happens to me. I just want my daughter back.

Lucy's phone...

Yeah, Daniel called you on Lucy's phone last night.

Morning, can I talk to you a minute about the starving in Africa?

What? - The starving in Africa.

If I could just have a few minutes... - Piss off.

Charming.

Phone?

- Excuse me... - Yeah.

You couldn't lend us 50p, could you?

Are you taking the piss? - Sorry about earlier.

We need to make a phone call. It's an emergency. Please.

Come on. It can't get any more embarrassing than it already is.

Bloody hell, Christian Grey's let himself go.

Come on, hold up, here...

Have a quid. Kinky bastard.

Cheers.

What d'you make of Jules and Murdoch being handcuffed together?

He doesn't want her getting away.

Sarge, have a look at this...

Looks brand new.

Cable ties.

A hostage?

Murdoch has a daughter.

What's that? Is that you?

Got it!

Right. Missed call. It's a local number, Google it.

0161 496 0971.

- Hello? - Who is this?

It's Dave Murdoch, who's this?

David? It's Detective Sergeant Susan Reinhardt.

I think we just met.

Now, you need to hand yourself in before this goes any further.

I know.

Okay, that's good. That's good, David.

Right, now, you need to stay where you are.

First you need to tell me exactly what's gone on.

All units in the vicinity of Market Street to head for Weatherby's pub.

Suspects on site.

Now, has someone taken your daughter?

Her name's Lucy. - Has someone taken Lucy?

We can still find Dan.

He wants Julie.

- He said he'll hurt my daughter. - We won't let that happen.

How can you promise that?

I can promise that we will do everything in our power to get her back.

What if it isn't enough?

D'you have kids?

No.

Then you really don't understand.

Dave!

I'm sorry.

David?

Out the back. - He's out the back.

They've gone.

Shit.

Sir.

We've got a hostage situation?

Yeah, it looks like it. David's daughter. So we're just going to...

How the balls are we just finding out about this now?

Well, no one reported her missing, sir.

And it looks like this boss of Murdoch is involved?

The bloke you questioned at the hospital?

Well, if you like we can arrest every bugger that Murdoch's ever met.

We've two dead bodies, Sue. One of ours in intensive care.

Let's add to that a hostage we knew sod all about

and bugger all idea of where Jules and Murdoch are.

Does that sound about right? - Yeah.

So, right now, we know the absolute square root of bob-all.

Not good, this, Sue. Not good at all.

What you got?

Crabtree's phone. It's still working.

Yeah, it's locked. - Give it here.

There you go. - Technology today!

Oh... Well, there's loads of emails here from credit companies.

Money owed. Final demands.

Well, he was up to his neck in debt. What does that tell us?

He needed money? Badly?

Badly enough to break someone out of prison?

Someone must have been paying him to get Jules Hope out.

The question is, who was he here to meet?

David Murdoch? Someone else?

No, just stick with the facts.

Whoever is behind this has got Murdoch's daughter.

So what do we know about her? - She's got a boyfriend.

Who never reported her missing.

Right. Let's pay him a visit. Thanks, Kate.

That's Dan's place, there.

They could have cameras on it.

Come on, let's go round the back.

Dan, Dan?

There's nothing here.

Christ, bloody hell! Jesus, Jules! I almost shat myself, man!

Rizla? What you doing here? - Feeding Larry, innit.

Hi. Can I help at all? - Hi.

Hi. Yes. We'd like to speak to Alan Gill, please.

Alan, sure...

Al!

Oi, Clarkson!

It's for you, lad. Coppers.

Everything okay? - Yes, sir, fine. Thanks.

Is there anywhere we can have a chat in private?

Yeah, sure.

You alright? You look nervous.

Two coppers turn up at work, it's not going to be good news is it?

So, you're dating Lucy Murdoch?

Dating? We live together.

When did you last see her?

What? Why? What's happened?

Mr Gill, it'd help if you just... - No, hang on a second.

Are you telling me something's happened to Lucy?

Mr Gill, I'm afraid we think that Lucy may have been abducted.

Abducted?

What, like, kidnapped? - We're trying to ascertain Lucy's...

Well, do you know where she is or not? - Mr Gill, Alan. Please, just calm down.

Now, we are doing everything we can to find Lucy and make sure that she's safe.

But what we need to do first is establish a timeline

so if we know where she's been, we can try to work out where she is.

D'you understand?

She's pregnant.

I mean, she's due in a few weeks.

She's out here.

Well, that's good to know.

So, let's just try and work through this calmly, ok?

When did you last see her?

Alan. When did you last see Lucy?

Yesterday afternoon. Um...

And then she went round her dad's.

And you weren't worried when she didn't come home?

No, of course not.

I mean I sent her a few texts. Just to make sure she was alright.

Did she answer them?

A couple, yeah. - Have you got your phone?

I'm not sure where it is. - I beg your pardon?

These look like you had... - Yeah. I know.

Look, it was just a stupid row.

Ok? But that is why she went round to her dad's.

Look, it was nothing! - Do you know a man called Daniel Hope?

No, I've never heard of him. - Jeff Crabtree?

No.

Look, where is she?

You ok?

Yeah, just tired.

Iron tablets, yeah? - Yeah.

Paracetamol, that's all I could find.

Do you know where Dan is? - What?

Shit, man.

You don't know?

Know what?

The police came round yesterday.

Sweetheart... Dan's dead.

What d'you think? D'you think he's straight?

Excuse me? Hiya.

I heard you mention Lucy's dad. Dave. Is he alright?

Sorry, Mr? - I'm Gary Sadler, I'm Alan's boss.

Mr Sadler, that's part of an ongoing enquiry. I'm afraid I can't discuss it.

Alan's a good lad, you know. He works hard.

Is there something you want to tell me, Mr Sadler?

Couple of weeks ago, Dave came down here shouting the odds.

I had to get in between them.

You don't think Alan would hurt Lucy, do you?

No. Not that.

It's just... Alan and Lucy fall out, and then she goes off to her dad's with half a story.

I see, well, thanks. And if you think of anything else...

Yeah, course.

Ok? - Yeah.

Uniform searched Crabtree's home. - Yeah?

Found a grand in a shoe box.

What did the police say? Exactly.

They found his car, burned out. A body inside.

They suspected it was him. - Suspected?

See. That doesn't mean he's dead.

I'm just telling you what they told me.

Dan's dead. Right, who's got Lucy?

I dunno.

Dan's been acting proper weird though.

Weird how? - Just like, not himself.

Not since he came back from Blackpool.

Stag do, last weekend.

He was acting proper... jumpy. Looking over his shoulder and that.

He's asked me to keep an eye on the house.

Let him know if anyone came by looking for him.

Weird shit like that. You know, like he knew someone was after him.

To be honest, and I know this sounds terrible but...

when the cops came round, I thought, yeah... they got him.

I didn't tell them that though.

Has anyone been round looking for him? - Just Joe.

Who's Joe? - A mate of Dan's. It was his stag.

Yeah...

Here we go.

Is that Daniel?

I want a list of Murdoch's known associates.

Anyone close to him, bring them in. Get Gibbons on it.

Oh, speak of the devil.

Will. Yeah?

Hope and Murdoch have just been seen outside Dan's house.

You what? Murdoch and Hope have been spotted.

What?! - Heading towards Dan's house.

Well, get TAU on it now! - Did you get that?

Police! Get down!

We're missing the fun.

You're nicked!

What's the charge, feeding a soddin' iguana?

What's this?

Have you lot got nothing better to do?

David Murdoch and Jules Hope were here. Where are they?

Yeah, they were here. Passing by. Don't matter, they've gone.

Where?

Not a clue, love.

Get him in the van.

Julie?

Sir, who's the tramps?

Home.

I'm so sorry, Joe. I know it's not on, turning up like this.

You're looking for Dan?

Said on the radio you'd escaped custody.

That's not the half of it...

- Who's he? - A friend, sort of.

Joe, what happened to Dan? - I don't know.

I haven't seen him since Saturday.

I've been ringing him all weekend. His phone's off.

So you don't know where he's gone?

Some bloke came round my house last Saturday, looking for him.

What?

Who was it? - I don't know.

Some big bloke. Think he was Geordie.

What did you tell him? - Just the truth.

That we're mates, we play football together. That was it.

I texted Dan. Told him.

He asked to see me - said he wanted to talk it through.

He looked worried. Really worried.

But that was the last time I saw him.

What happened in Blackpool?

We ended up down this club...

And it kicked off with a couple of local lads, that was it.

What's the name of the club? - I think I've got a membership card...

Mr Gee's.

Yeah, that's it. Mr Gee's.

D'you know who was looking for Dan?

A man called Eddie, Eddie Goad.

But he wasn't looking for Dan.

He wants me.

Why?

A few years ago, me and Eddie stole some money.

A lot of money.

Eddie got caught, I didn't.

He went down for it. And he blamed me.

But Dan...

He was just a kid, you know?

Mr Gee's, it's Eddie's brother's club.

So, this Eddie came to Manchester looking for you?

Dan must have thought that Eddie would get to me in prison.

And he worked out a plan to get me out.

But Eddie got to Dan first.

But I spoke to Dan.

Yeah, Dave. You did. Not me.

It could have been anyone.

Even if Dan did have Lucy, Eddie's got her now.

Dan's dead. Eddie killed him.

I'm sorry I got you into this. I'm sorry I lied. I'm so sorry.

I just want to know where Lucy is.

So how do I get her back?

We find Eddie, and we give him what he wants.

Me.

Doctor Keeler, hi.

Hi Sue, hope I haven't caught you at a bad

Visitor for you, sarge.

Doctor Keeler. Sorry, can I call you straight back? Thanks.

Nice one, Phil.

Making an honest woman out of her at last.

Yeah... Yeah, thanks. Sue, can we just...

Yeah. Yeah, sure. Just give me a sec.

Do you see a ring?

Some detective.

"Some detective!"

I just wanted to say sorry about last night.

Have you slept?

You're going to make yourself really ill. - Look, Phil, I'm really busy. I did say I'd call you...

I don't want you to go. To London.

Come in here a sec.

Look, Phil.

I haven't decided what I'm going to do.

Well... I'm asking you to decide.

I'm asking you to stay, with me.

We don't have to get married. - Look, it's not...

If that's what's scaring you. - It's not just that. It's not us.

It's just... it's... I don't feel like I'm in control of anything.

Can't you just be happy with what you've got?

D'you really want to start again? A new career, at your age?

You love being a copper. - I used to.

No you do. You still do. You know you do. You'd be lost, doing anything else.

Especially bloody Police Academy.

College of Policing.

Can you really see yourself teaching full time?

Huh? You complain enough about laddo out there.

Look, I'm asking you to make a decision.

And I'm telling you I don't know what I want.

You got a light, mate?

You sure about this? - No, not really.

Me and Alan don't get on.

But I do know he thinks the world of Lucy. Most of the time.

Where is she?

Alright, Alan. Just calm down. I'm not looking for a scrap.

No, don't tell me to calm down. Where is she?

Listen, there's stuff I need to talk to you about.

Look, I've spoken to the police. They told me Lucy's missing.

And it said on the news that they're looking for her.

And you.

Yeah but we think we know where Lucy is.

Then you phone the police. - I will. Soon as I can be sure.

If I'm wrong, she could be anywhere

and I'm not gonna be much use stuck behind bars, am I?

She's my daughter. - And she's having my kid!

I know.

Do you know I've bought a flat?

I've not told her.

That's why I've been so busy, why I've been so tired.

I've been decorating it.

It's almost done.

Nursery and everything.

I was going to surprise her.

Alan, trust me, I want to find my daughter too.

You alright? - Yeah.

Thanks. - Yeah, don't. I'm not giving you the car, Dave.

Bastards!

- Sarge, you in here? - Are you having a laugh?

Sorry, Gary Sadler's on the phone. He said it's urgent.

Then take a message!

Oh, hang on.

It's like working with a bloody Chuckle Brother.

Which one?

You pick!

- Mr Sadler, hello? - They were here, just now.

Murdoch. He's taken one of my cars, with Alan.

Where's Ward? - In his office.

Right, which car has he taken? I'm gonna need all the details.

Yep...

I think I know where they're heading.

Sarge, sarge. They've been spotted. Heading out of Salford, on the M62.

Right, so they're heading towards the M6. Ok.

So which way next? Up, down, straight over?

What? - Come on, place a bet, which way d'you think they're going?

I haven't a clue. - I bet I can guess. M6 North.

Sarge, they've just joined the M6, headed north.

I know where they're going. Will, pass us that folder.

Dan and Jules Hope are originally from Blackpool.

So? -So, they've got history in Blackpool. People that might help them.

That's where she's going.

M6, M62, up past Preston, M55, Blackpool.

Right, so now you're the psychic detective? - Sir... - That's a bloody big leap!

They're heading to Blackpool. I know they are.

If we know where they are we can get ahead of them and cut them off.

Right. I'll get onto traffic. - Sir, I'd really like to be there.

Have you slept? - Yeah. Yeah, a good two hours, easy.

What about you? - The same, sir.

You'd better be right about this.

- Traffic to control. - Go ahead.

Suspect's pulling off the M6 into Charnock Richard services.

Requesting additional units.

DS Reinhardt? - No...

My lads have the car under observation

but the suspects left before we had a chance to ID them.

Oh... Right.

Have you checked inside? - Not yet.

Ok, well, we'll take a look. Thanks.

Want me to check upstairs?

DS Reinhardt, two males approaching the Astra, would you like us to apprehend?

What, Murdoch and Gill? - So where's Jules?

Can you confirm, would you like us to apprehend?

- Yeah! Yeah! Bloody hell, yeah! - Go, go!

Take the keys out of the ignition. Step out of the car. Out.

What the bloody hell is this? - We haven't done nothing wrong!

Look, the feller give us the keys, yeah.

That's great. - Bastards!

- Come on, let's get them out of here. - What? - Go on!

We haven't done nothing wrong!

Yeah, hi. Mr. Sadler, it's DS Reinhardt.

Did you get them?

It wasn't them. They weren't in the car. - What? Are you sure?

Well, I'm here with the Astra now and we've got two suspects

but neither of them is David Murdoch or Alan Gill.

I don't get it.

Mr Gill gave them the keys, sir. As a decoy.

Could they have taken a different car? - Just bear with me a second.

No. The Astra's the only one that's gone.

Let me check something. - Sorry hold on.

Hello?

Hi, Sue? It's Sarah Keeler.

Oh, Doctor Keeler? Sorry, I was meant to call you back. It's been a mad day.

It's ok. Look, I've got your test results.

Should I sit down?

It's not quite what we expected.

You're pregnant, Sue.

Sue?

Sue? - What?

Are you there?

Doctor Keeler, sorry. I'm going to have to call you back.

What did Sadler say?

Shit, he's still on hold!

Sorry, Mr Sadler, yeah?

I'm not sure how to tell you this. Alan's car's not here.

What?

He took his own car. They're in Alan's car.

Jesus Christ, they could be anywhere by now.

Do you have any idea when I'm going to get my Astra back?

Sarge?

Er, get Alan's... reg number. And then... just get on to ANPR.

Sarge, are you alright? - Just do it!

Alright! Bloody hell...

What?

Spencer's been chasing you.

She's cross-referenced the DNA sample you took from Dan Hope's house.

The body in the car...

It's not him.

You are kidding! So what, Dan Hope's still alive?

- Well, who is it? - She's onto it now.

She needs to run it through the database.

- Oh, great! - Sorry, Sarge.

- Hello? - Dan Hope's alive?

Yes, sir.

And now you're saying they're in Blackpool?

Fylde police have found Alan Gill's car and it's in Blackpool.

So, I was right, sort of. It's where they were heading.

Ta darr!

It's just we... we followed the wrong car.

- Yeah. Course we did. - But it all makes sense.

I thought there was some big bad wolf pulling the strings but there's not.

- She's gone to her brother. - So Dan's got Lucy Murdoch?

Sir, I'm thinking me and Iddon should drive over there.

To Blackpool?

Well, Jules must have gone to Dan.

They must be in Blackpool for a reason so we can talk to her friends and foster family.

We'll have to start with the family.

I'll speak to Fylde. I'll have someone meet you. Understood?

Great. Understood, sir. Great. Got it. Thanks.

Right, we're on.

She's beautiful, your Lucy.

You showed me a picture once.

She's gorgeous.

Well, she takes after her mother.

Certainly doesn't get it from me.

I heard she'd died.

I'm sorry.

It's fine.

How did she die?

She had cancer.

It's amazing, how many things get taken away before it kills you.

I've not been a good dad.

My wife had been ill for years.

Did what I could, tried to be there for Lucy.

Nothing can replace your mum, can it?

Last time I saw Lucy...

we had an argument, and er...

I said some things I wish I hadn't said now.

I don't know what Eddie's going to do to me.

Alright?

Hello, Mrs Nutter? - Yeah.

I'm Detective Sergeant Susan Reinhardt, this is Detective Constable Iddon.

Could we have a word? - Um, yeah, come in.

Thanks.

I haven't seen them for... god, it must be more than five years now.

And they've no other friends or family you can think of?

No, no family. I don't think they had many friends, if I'm honest.

It was quite a relief when they went.

I've never known a really bad kid. But some of 'em have come close.

Daniel? - Daniel was fine, he was definitely a character. Right from being tiny.

No, it was Jules that we had the trouble with.

She was one of those that could... wrap you round her little finger.

If she wanted something, she got it.

She had a real edge to her though.

Look, it's the best I could get.

Painkillers, Deep Heat...

Thanks.

So how do I find Eddie?

Same way Daniel did. Go to Anthony's club. He'll know where Eddie is.

I'll get changed and we'll go.

Are you sure about this?

No, you're not coming. Either of you.

What?

I want to get my daughter back.

That doesn't mean I'm going to let Eddie do what he wants to you.

I find him, I talk to him. If I'm not back in an hour, you phone the police, you tell them everything.

Dave... - I just want to find my daughter.

Let's get rid of these.

Right, let's get into Blackpool.

Meet up with this DS Stafford that Ward's set us up with.

What?

They've just pulled a voicemail off Murdoch's phone...

I think you need to listen to this.

Get in.

LUCY, VOICEMAIL: Dad... Dad, he's just run me off the road...

Dad, please...

- What do you want? - Get in the car!

No, please, leave me alone! Look, I'm pregnant...

D'you think I'm fucking playing? Get in!

Get in the car!

It's definitely Gill's car. Is there anything?

No.

DS Reinhardt? DS Stafford.

Hi.

Oh, sorry, excuse me.

Kate, hi. -SPENCER: I've had a hit off the database... - Yeah, go on.

The body in the car, it's an Eddie Goad, arrested in Blackpool in 2004, now aged 41.

Yeah, ok. Cheers for letting me know. Thanks.

I'm just explaining to your oppo, that we can pull CCTV

but the truth is there's a lot of places to hide in Blackpool.

We've got a name. For that body we found yesterday.

Eddie Goad.

Eddie Goad? Eddie's dead? You sure?

You know him? - The Goads, yeah!

They're a bit of a face around town.

Eddie's brother, Anthony owns a night club up the road from here.

We're closed, pal.

I'm looking for Eddie Goad. - Why?

Just tell him I know all about Daniel Hope. He can either talk to me or the police.

You're looking for Eddie?

Yeah. Who are you?

His brother, Anthony. And you are?

Lucy's father.

Lucy?

I know Eddie's taken my daughter.

I know he wants Jules Hope, but that's not going to happen.

You're with Jules Hope?

You'd better start making sense.

Now, I don't know where Eddie is. No one does...

- But if you... - Hello, is Anthony about?

Shit!

They're up there, go, GO!

Shit!

Chasing suspect on the roof of Mr Gee's, heading south towards the prom.

Oi! Stay where you are!

Eyes on Murdoch, heading for the central arcade off the promenade.

Copy that.

What you playing at?

Shit.

It's over, David.

Ok...
