"Go, go, go!" "Move, let's move, come on." "Breach." "Right." "Go, go, go." "You're in the back." "They're out the back door." "East side." "On his toes." "That's it, come on." "Get down, you're under arrest." "Get up." " Up!" " I know my rights!" "I could really use a new telly." "Hi, hon." "Just in the middle of work." "The lamb." "Yeah, cheers." "Me, too." "Irene." "I can see myself in this." " Prefer to see you out of it." " Original." " Yeah, old ones are always the best." " That's what I say to the boys I date." " We only got one of them." " All right." " Stand there." " All right." "Hey, lighten up." "We've recovered enough stuff to open a branch of Harrods." " It was a good op." " Well done." "Yeah." "Well done, Yates." "Irene and I are thinking about releasing a CD, With Love from Rick." " You know, showcasing my gentle side." " How's it look?" "Yeah." "It's up." "You guys want to order one?" "They're gonna go fast." "Wouldn't want you to miss out." "Hi, hon." "Come on, babe, you can't say things like that." "You're gonna make me blush." "You know I love whipped cream, yeah." "Me, too." "Hang on." ""Crown Persecution Service"?" " Think we ought to tell him?" " Why?" " He's going to be embarrassed." " Yeah." "And?" " It would be cruel." " Yeah." "And?" " Is this you showcasing your gentle side?" " So, report me to the RSPCA." "Yeah, right." "Good one." "No, have a look." " You're not gonna wind me up." " He's too clever for you, Nicky." " Honestly, Clark..." " Look, I've checked, all right?" "You spell "scheme" with "ch", not a "k"." "Good try." "Okay." "Hiya." "You hit it inside, inside." "Right." "Yes." "Inside." " Hey." " Hey." " I didn't think you were gonna turn up." " Well, you know, I had a few minutes." " Your idea of a joke?" " What's that?" ""Persecution"?" "Only if you're laughing." " You smell nice." " It's just soap." "It's nice soap." " I wouldn't mind being that soap." " That's very weird." "A big lather all over you." "Okay, too much information." "The idea doesn't appeal to you, then?" "What should I write?" "Russell, Rusty or just plain Bing?" "Russell will be fine." "So, I'm gonna stare straight ahead and look very serious, so that everybody else thinks that we're talking shop, but what are you doing at the weekend?" " This sounds like a proposition." " Well, keep listening and it might be." " Do you want to persecute me in private?" " No, I just want to put you under house arrest." "Do you want to go somewhere?" "Straight ahead." "Don't be so obvious." "I know this beautiful hotel, the best food." "My mum can look after the baby." "Look, a simple yes or no will do." "Please don't make me look desperate." "That's subsection 6A, article 727." " 727." " Mmm." "Best to check, though, to be sure." " Yeah, to be sure." " Yeah, to be sure." "Errol, your uncle, was he a professional boxer?" "No." "Highly-ranked amateur." "Oh, brilliant." "Nicky says forget it." "You'd have no chance." "No chance." " Get me some gloves." " Oh, no." "I don't think so, boss." " Nicky doesn't want you to get hurt." " Did you hear me?" "Get me some gloves." "Right away, boss." "Do you ever think to yourself sometimes you were born with bad timing?" "No, but I think I'm about to." "I promised to take Matty to Holy Island for the weekend." "Errol sorted it." " Holy Island?" " Mmm." "Although now I'm thinking of something a little less holy." " You?" " No, I don't think so." "Have a good trip." "Another time?" "I don't think so." "You see, opportunity knocked, but where were you?" "Saved from a lifetime of sadness and deprivation." "By teaching them how to thump each other?" "Yeah, it's great, eh?" "Oh, by the way, it's "prosecution", not "persecution"." " Yeah, so what's her problem?" " She's just reminding herself." "What does he think he's doing?" "What does he think he's doing?" " Well, what do you think you're doing?" " Go on, you and me." "Let's go." "No, no, no, no, out." "Outside." "Step out." "I don't want to hurt you." "Yeah." "No, you won't." "Come on." "I'm working with the boy..." "You can show him with me ." "Little demonstration." "Come on." "Russell." "Sir, you don't want to do this." " Oh, yes, Cole, I do want to do it." " No, you don't." "Don't worry, I won't hurt him." "Get out of the ring, Rat Bag." " Er, Rat Boy." " Yeah, whatever." "Come on." "Nicky?" "Sir, sir." "He's my only uncle, okay?" "He's old." "He's much older than he looks." "I don't want to lose him." "I don't want Matty to see him suffer any indignity..." " Yeah, all right." " Shut up, Nicky." "Somebody ring the bell." "I'll do it!" "Those your own teeth?" "Say goodbye to them." "You done?" " Make them stop." " Shh." "Nicky, throw a towel in or something." "Your uncle's going to get hurt." "Had some fun?" "Big fun." "Now I'm going to come inside." "Combination to the body, then a right upper cut, and that'll be the last thing you remember." " Thanks for letting me know." " You ready?" "Russell!" "Russell, are you okay?" "Was that great or what?" "Speak to me!" "Are you okay?" "You're more a brawler than a boxer, but you got a good solid punch." "I love this man." "Er, Paddy... did SOCO cast the footprints?" "Yeah, we looked at doing it, but we can't be sure of the provenance." "There were too many people around the house." "Your man, Jenson, he jumped from the window?" "Yeah, and ran towards the woods." "No one else ran with him?" "He was the only one I saw." "They escape on foot?" "Did they have a car?" "Well, we sealed the roads off as fast as possible, but I think they legged it." "Well, there's loads of places to hide, isn't there?" "Yeah." "What, are you checking up on me?" "No." "Just ticking the boxes." "We're done here." "Yeah." "We're going in Georgina's car, eh?" " Why?" " Ratty, 50p!" "Let's go!" "I invited Ratty to come with us." "Spoke to Mrs Bancroft in Social Services." "She say he's never done anything like this before." " What, visit a church?" " Go on holiday." "Well, two kids can still fit in the back." "Yeah, and where we gonna put Georgina?" " She's coming too?" " Didn't I tell you?" "It gets better and better." "My hand killing me, boy." "I should have taped." "I didn't believe I hit the guy so hard, you know." "Yeah, and he said he loved you." "If you hit him any harder, he'll probably wanna marry you." " Ready?" " Just about." "You want me to drive?" "That's not really a question, is it?" "All right, boys, in the car." "Hey, small change, in the back." "Are you sure about Holy Island?" "I mean, I thought you wanted to go to Edinburgh or Loch Ness or something." "Matthew was adamant." "He studied it in school, wanted to go." "Because he studied it in school?" "Is he feeling all right?" "I think it will be a good thing for all of us." "A spiritual place, contemplate our blessings." "Okay, I'm cool with that, as long as we contemplate in a decent hotel with some good food." "It's going to be okay, you watch us." "Good op, Yates." "Look, have you been able to tie Jenson's DNA to the scene of the warehouse robbery?" "Not yet." "We're still running samples." "We can charge for receiving the stolen goods and hold him on that." "The probability of flight is high." "No, no." "No, he ran from the scene." "The court should deny bail." "What can we offer him if he grasses up his colleagues?" " We're not gonna offer him anything." "He's guilty." " I agree with Russell." "I'm not inclined to make any sort of deal." "Yeah, but there were at least four other suspects we didn't get." "And whose fault was that?" "Why don't you come out and run an op one night?" "Boss, we need information." "We've got to offer him something." "A year's supply of phone cards he can use inside." "Charge for receiving, pending further investigation on other charges?" "Sounds good to me." "Oh, I think I broke a rib." "Ooh, I love it." " We're staying here?" " Yeah, what's your problem?" " I'm glad I'm here." " Come on, then." "I'm not happy, Errol." "That's Lindisfarne, Holy Island." "How do we get there?" "Swim?" "It's tidal." "When the tide's out you can drive across the causeway, but when it's in, no one's going anywhere." "Happens twice a day." "Lots to visit." "Looking forward to that." "You sound like you're having fun in here, man." ""Come to me all who are weary" ""and whose load is heavy" ""and I will give you rest."" "Yeah, right." "Matthew 11:28." "Tide's out, guys." "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" "Come on, come on, come on!" "St Aidan and his monks came from Iona and set up the first monastery." "St Cuthbert continued the work until the Vikings came and destroyed it all in 793." " Good." " Good?" "I mean, interesting." "Yeah." "What with the ruins of the priory, the church, the castle, the Lindisfarne Gospels..." "So much to do." "Where do you want to start?" "Well, ask Matty." "He's the one who's studying it." "Matty?" "Where do you want to visit first?" "A place with ice cream and chocolate." " I think I'll give the tour a miss." " Well, you never had no sense of history." "Guilty as charged." "Okay, suit yourself." "Boys, we'll start with the ruins of the priory, eh?" "I don't want to be walking round a bunch of rocks." " This is meant to be a holiday." " Can't we just look for shipwrecks?" "All right, all right, all right." "You guys, you stay with Nicky." " Georgina and I will..." " I'll look after the boys." "You don't want to go?" "I'm happy to look after the boys." "I'm going." "Have a great time." "Look at those cakes." "Yeah, much better than ruins." "What are you doing here?" "I think we're about to get fat." "How about you?" "My parents have a cottage." "Hello!" "Hey, Miss Robson." "Can we go in now?" "Yeah, yeah, you go on." " We'll order for you." " Yeah, I'll be right there." "Actually, it's all Matty's idea." "Sucking up because you're studying it in class." "We're not studying it." " You're not?" " No, I just told the boys" "I'd be here for the weekend." "Right, I see." "I guess it's a bit of a coincidence, then, running into you like this." "Oh, I don't know." "It's a small place." "You don't really blend in." "I guess not." "Do you fancy a cup of tea?" "I can't." "I need to get back to the cottage." "Well, it's great to see you." "Yeah, you, too." "Come." "It's Farne Cottage." "Third off the harbour." "When you're done being a tourist, maybe you'd like to get a drink?" "Yeah, cool." "See you." "I'm gonna get you." "Are you okay?" "Can I do anything to help you?" "No." "This is a beautiful place to sit and think, isn't it?" "Depends what you're thinking about." "Yeah." "I think about the future when I come to places like this." "I know most people think about the past, but not me." "This..." "'Cause places like this is built on hope and hope is about things to come, not about things that have been." "You see, I've seen a lot of trouble in my life, but nothing a little hope couldn't get me through." "I've got nothing to hope for." "Then you've got to keep thinking, because a young lady as lovely as you has plenty to look forward to." "Please, just leave me alone." "Do you live nearby?" "Is there someone I can get to help you?" "You want to come and light a candle with me?" "Why don't you come with me?" " Get away from me." " I don't want to leave you like this." " Why don't you come with me?" " Don't touch me!" "So, I said to her, "Miss Robson, will you marry me?"" "She said, "Yes."" "And we're thinking about taking our honeymoon in Trinidad." " When?" " Trinidad's quite good this time of year." "When you getting married?" "We're thinking tomorrow." "You're kidding me." "How dumb are you?" "Very dumb." "I thought that sounded lovely." "Bit reckless, but lovely." "I thought she was gonna harm herself." "I tried talking to her." "I didn't know what to do." "I mean, you've dealt with this kind of thing before." " I thought you might..." " Where is she?" "You sure it was here?" "Yes!" "How long ago?" "I don't know, 20 minutes?" "Maybe longer." "I was walking towards the castle." "I got worried for her and decided to get you." "Well, whatever you said to her, it obviously worked." "Don't worry, man." "Look, I'll meet you back at the car in an hour, okay?" "Go and look at some old graves or something." "Have some fun." "Paddy." "Can we have a word?" "Hey!" "Are you okay?" " Are you following me?" " No, no, no, I was worried about you, and I'm glad that you're okay." "Stop following me." "Leave me alone." "Come on, Matty." "Errol..." "I said an hour." "We're gonna miss the tide." "Sorry, sorry, sorry." "I lost track of time." "I was saying some prayers in the old chapel." " For that woman?" " Among others." "I said a special one for your brother." " Does anybody ever listen to that one?" " Oh, they get listened to." "I didn't do nothing." "I swear." "What do you think they want?" "How can I help you, Constable?" "Him?" "Okay, could you step out of the car, please?" "Hands where I can see them, starting with the driver." "Do it now!" "Everything's gonna be all right." "Just chill." "Don't say a word." "Step out of the car, please." "Okay, keep the others in the car." "Right hand behind your back." "I want to know what this is about." " Put your right hand behind your back, now." " Do what he says, Errol." "I have a right to know!" "Errol, chill." "Just do what he says and keep your mouth shut." "I'm Detective Sergeant Cole, Tyneside Police." "My identification is in my back pocket." "May I get it, please?" "Put your right hand behind your back." "Left." "Check it." "Right." "I've identified myself." "Your suspect is handcuffed and no longer poses a threat." "You have an obligation to administer a caution to the suspect you're arresting." " I haven't heard it." " You stay right where you are." "We are arresting you in connection with the suspected murder of Janice Powers." "You do not have to say anything." "But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later..." "Later rely on in court." "Later rely on in court." "Anything you do say may be given in evidence." "Okay, Detective Sergeant Cole." "It checks." "Who is Janice Powers?" "I'm staying." "They need to speak to me." "You can go." "However, if I need to speak to you, I'll have to ask you to come back." "Hey, Matty." "They're just doing their job." "I'll look after Errol, okay?" "You're lucky, mate." " Errol could have taken you apart." " Michael." "No mouth." "Not now." "Take the boys to my place and look after them there, yeah." "Don't worry." "You'll see Errol and I tomorrow." "Drive safe, yeah." "Janice Powers." "Local girl." "Found her body face down in the mud and sand next to the causeway." "But you never saw her?" "Who found her body?" "You were in a tea shop?" "Yeah, for over an hour." "Then we decided to walk along the beach, look for treasure." "Didn't find any." "It started to get dark, so we went back up to the car and waited for Errol there." "What time was she found?" "So your uncle wasn't with you?" "Not the all the time, no." "He was taking in the sights." " Do you have a cause of death?" " What time did he come to get you?" "Quarter to four." "You obviously think it's an unlawful death." "Did you find a weapon?" "Any marks on the body that might suggest a weapon?" "Do you not know, or you just don't want to tell me?" "He came to see you because of the young woman in distress?" "He didn't know what to do." " He wanted me to come with him and talk to her." " But she wasn't there?" "No." " You don't have very much, do you?" " He knows you're a police officer." "He's behaved inappropriately, possibly criminally, so he comes to get you so you'll vouch for his so-called concern." "His concern was real." "I have witnesses confirm the woman in distress your uncle was talking to in the ruins of the priory was Janice Powers." "Well, if that's right, I'm sure my uncle will confirm it." "And if he does, then we'll all have to say he was right about the woman in distress, won't we?" "I have witnesses say he was harassing her." "She told him not to touch her and to leave her alone." "There's no quick answer to that, eh?" "I thought she was going to harm herself." "You saw her by herself." "You thought, "I'd like a little bit of that."" "You know, it worries me that when you see a man like me, you think he's a sexual predator." "How did you kill her?" "I didn't kill anyone." "Maybe you didn't mean to kill her, but once you did, you thought," ""I'll dump her body in the causeway." "Tide will come in, take her body away."" "I did not kill anyone." "You see, I just want to know how you did it." "Shopkeeper sees you approach her at the taxi stand." "She tells you to stop following her." "I was worried about her." "So you go after her, and you catch up with her on the causeway." "No." "Then where were you?" "Praying." "By yourself?" "In St Mary's Church." "No one saw you?" "And the reason no one saw you was because you weren't there." "Well, I was there and I was praying." "Okay." "Stop the tape." "I'm done." "You are free to go." "I think I'll wait for my uncle, if that's all right." "I'm holding your uncle pending further enquiries and discussions with the CPS about the charge." " You don't have enough to charge him." " You don't know what I've got." "Yes, I do." " You've got a black man." " I could hold you." "What, so you'd have a matching set?" "You're a fellow detective, so I'm going to show you some respect." "I'd like to think you'd do the same for me." "Stranger killings are very rare." "Killings in general are very rare, and we take them very seriously." "You're not going to leave the country without letting me know, are you?" "Is that what you think you've got?" "A runner?" "You don't have a runner, mate." "You've got a shadow." "Claire?" "I need a favour." "I want a transcript of my interview with the suspect." "We go back to Holy Island tomorrow morning." "We start to build a case." "He's got no alibi." "I want to interview anyone who saw him." "I want to track his movements, and we gotta fill in the blanks on Mrs Powers right up to the moment she died." "We should have preliminary forensics back by tomorrow." "Are you sure he didn't do it?" " I'm not even going to answer that." " Look, you'd expect me to ask." "I expect a little support." "I'm sorry." "I thought you wanted to get him out, not a shoulder to cry on." "He's innocent." "Of course I want to get him out." "Then I have to ask these questions, okay?" "Look, I'll make a call tomorrow, see if I can find out where they are with the charge." "Are you going to be all right?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "I'm just trying to get my head around all this." "Make sure I cover all bases, you know." "Well, just remember, Nicky, they've got to prove he's guilty." "All you have to do is show reasonable doubt." "That puts you a step ahead of them." "Well, I'd like more than a step." "I'll see you later." "Yeah." "November 7 to Control." "Control to November 7, over." "Forensic Officer Humby requested, please." "Where's the crime scene?" "Oh, Mr Humby." "Good to see you, mate." "Yeah." "Maybe for you." "You get me out of bed and drag me down here, and you're gonna tell me there's no crime scene?" "Mr Humby, are we friends?" "Until about 30 minutes ago." "Look, I need some forensics and pathology information on a case in Berwick." "Confidential information." "Not the kind of thing I could ask for openly, but if it should come your way..." "And let's pretend I could get this information." "You want me to risk losing my job and destroying my career for a bloke who just woke me up?" "Yeah." " Sounds good, doesn't it?" " Oh, yeah, yeah." "You're selling it to me well." "And what do I get out of this?" "Kebab?" "That's a good start." "They've got witnesses to say that he was harassing the girl, but nothing that links him to the actual crime." "He wasn't harassing her." "He was trying to help her." "Cole, the witnesses aren't saying he was trying to help her, are they?" "No, sir." "So they're conflating the harassment into murder because he has no alibi." " He was in the church..." " Cole." "Yeah, that's right." "They've got a plausible suspect and they're building a case." "So what have they done wrong?" " They've got the wrong suspect." " I don't think they've done anything wrong." "They're doing exactly what you'd do, pursue the suspect they've got" " until they determine he's not a suspect." " He didn't do it." "At this precise moment, that is not the point." "The point is that they are doing it right." "So what do you intend to do?" "I'm gonna go up there, kick ass and take names." "Cole, you're not with me at all on this, are you?" "You're a concerned citizen, and as a concerned citizen you want to help them with their enquiries, because I don't want to hear about whose ass you've kicked or whose names you've taken." "Are you starting to catch up?" "Yes, sir." "Because I don't want you to have to face a disciplinary hearing, which I'll have to waste half a day attending." " Totally up to speed with you now, sir." " Good." "Maguire, get in here." "Frank, would you consider yourself a concerned citizen?" "Only if it made my life easier." "And that makes you about normal." "I've spoken to a friend at the CPS in Berwick." "They're waiting on DNA." "They may charge without it if they get further evidence." "Based on his criminal record, they think he's a good suspect." "Hang on, what criminal record?" "He was convicted of assaulting a police officer in 1973." "Stop and Search." "Your uncle broke the man's jaw." "History of violence." "He never mentioned it." " It's not something you brag about." " What's going on?" "They'd love to stick this on him, wouldn't they?" "Black guy beats up a cop." " Tasty." " In 1973." "What's that got to do with anything?" "Okay." "Well, your uncle's put his foot right in it." "You two concerned citizens better get busy." "Somebody going to fill me in?" "They found the body about here." "I'm guessing around 4:15, 4:20." "We saw the Blues and Twos approximately 4:30." "And the tide's been in and out since they found it?" "Yeah." "How they saying it got here?" "She was walking to the mainland." "Errol grabbed her on the way." "During the hour he can't account for." "Two miles to the island." "Twenty, twenty-five minute walk?" "You drive on." "I'll walk it from here." " Farne Cottage." " Yeah, I'll meet you there." "Did you have a good time yesterday?" "There's a lot to see here on such a small island." "Mind you, yesterday wasn't such a great day, I guess." "Apparently there was a murder." "Yeah, I know." "That's why I'm here." "How stupid am I?" "Of course you're not here to see me." "I mean, you're here to see me, but not, like, "see me", if you know what I mean." "Forget it." "I mean..." "What am I thinking?" "How embarrassing." "Look, did you know the woman that died?" "Not really." "From Beal, I think." "Married to Austin." " Austin?" " That's not his real name, it's Steve." "We call him Austin because of Powers, you know." "Yeah." "Janice and Steve Powers." "He drives one of the taxis." "You know, the ones that bring the tourists across the causeway." "Everybody knows him." "Whenever I take the train or the bus, I get the taxi across." "He's a lovely guy." "Real chatty." "Tends to stare at your breasts." " Not that I like that." " No, of course not." "God, I just said breasts in front of you." "I teach Matty, and I'm telling you I like the guy who stares at my breasts." "How weird is that?" " Not a great advert for a teacher, is it?" " Actually, you said you didn't like it." "Oh, I don't." "Can I not like that, but still like him without you thinking I'm easy?" "Did I just say, "I'm easy"?" "You know what I mean." "Yeah, I do." " Does he work every day?" " I don't know." "It's off-season, so it's only locals and tourists on the weekends, really." "It's terrible what happened." "He must be devastated." "They've arrested someone, right?" " Yeah." " Well, at least that's something." "Everybody's talking about it, the things he did to her before he killed her." " What do you mean?" " Well, the guy they arrested." "He abducted her and dragged her down towards the causeway before he..." "The guy they arrested is Errol." "What?" "No." "Errol couldn't have done it." "Well, he didn't, but that's who they've arrested." "No." "They said he was an escaped convict or something." "In the pub, they were saying he's a drug dealer from Jamaica." "Look, I need to prove he didn't do it." "Errol?" "Well, of course he didn't do it." "Nicky, this is terrible." "Well, no one's gonna speak to me, but if you find out anything, even if it doesn't seem important, will you let me know?" "Course." "Thanks." "Twenty-one minutes to walk over." "Double it." "Yeah." "Leaves him enough time in the missing hour." "Right." "Let's go to church." "I've got a problem, Miss Maxwell." "I need someone to talk to about it." "Personal or work?" "I don't do personal." "You know Jenson?" "Receiving stolen goods." "Yeah, it was an absolutely clean arrest." "Look, if we can't get him on anything else, we can nail him on receiving, and, with a good judge, he'll go to prison." "Yeah, well, I was walking through it with Maguire yesterday." "Can I see me notes in the file?" "Yeah." "That's what I thought." "I've made a mistake in me notes." "What are you talking about?" "I've made a mistake." "I can't swear in court that this is what happened." "I didn't see him jump from the window." "I just saw him running." "From the building?" "I was by the house, like I wrote, and I could see him running, so I gave chase." "From the building?" "In the open ground next to the house." "It was only when Maguire was asking that I realised." "I thought I'd better tell you right away." "He said he was alone in the church?" "Yeah." "What, no tourists?" " No one?" " He said he was alone." "Not even the caretaker?" "Stop." " I need to see the intentions." " Sorry, that's not possible." "Detective Sergeant Cole." "It's regarding the death of Janice Powers." ""Forgive and protect Adam, and help me do the same."" " Errol wrote this." " Who's Adam?" "My brother." "It proves he was here in the church, like he said he was." ""Give comfort to the young woman in pain and help her find peace."" ""Bless Nicky and Matty..."" "These are Errol's intentions." "It's his handwriting." "Yeah, well, it doesn't tell us when he was here." "How often do you burn these?" "Each day at 2:00, unless the church is closed." " Still doesn't help us with the time window." " But it proves he was here." "You didn't see Jenson jump from the window of the house." "Didn't see him leave the house?" "No way of being sure he was in the house." " We don't have continuity." " I know what we don't have." "What I don't understand is how we had it, and now we don't." "I made a mistake in me notes." "You made a mistake." "A mistake." "Yeah." "A mistake?" "A mistake which I want to put right." "A mistake which is the difference between charging Jenson and releasing him." "And you've just woke up to it?" "What do you want me to do, lie?" "I'm not gonna lie." "Heaven forbid you should lie." "Amend it in front of me, please." "Thank you for telling the truth." "You can leave now." "Close the door behind you." "We're gonna have to abandon Jenson." "Unless we have prints or DNA that put him in the house." "We don't." "I checked." "What do you think this is about?" "Oh, I think it's an honest officer clearing his conscience." "Don't you?" "The body was spotted by the driver of the 4:10 from Holy Island to Beal." "He called the police on his mobile phone." "The tourists who ID'd Errol were on that bus." "Right." "Hang on, hang on." "Let me work out the timeline." "Twenty-one minutes to walk it back." "There's no way across the mud and the sand." "You'd have to use the road." "If Errol had done it, the driver would have seen him walking back." "Well, the tourists ID'd the body, not the driver." "What does that tell you?" "The driver didn't see him." "Errol wasn't there." " I think it's time to call a taxi, don't you?" " Yeah..." "Oh, no, no." "We're not gonna go after the husband." "We've got enough already to clear Errol." "We're moving into deep water if we start trying to investigate that." "What?" "You can't swim?" "You know what he looks like?" "So you're absolutely sure you did not see the guy jump?" "No, I led the team coming through the back of the house." "Why?" "Just confirming a detail." "I'll show you out." "That's great, Sergeant." "Thanks for your help." "You may be off the hook, Paddy." "We still might be able to charge." "Is that Steve Powers?" "Uh-huh, in the blue T-shirt." "Simpkins." "I got him." "Right." "Let's pay Mr Powers a visit." "Who's the girl?" "Jane Deevers." "She works behind the bar in the hotel." "Her husband works in Berwick." "How long have they been seeing each other?" "What do you mean?" "I told you, she's married." "Nicky." "Look, thanks a lot for your help." "You better go now." "A husband whose wife has just been found dead is consoling a distraught woman in a secluded spot." "She's panicking." "They're getting their stories straight." "So how do you want to play this?" "This isn't our call." "We gotta give this to the locals." "Come on, let's go." "Well, come on." "Look, we go to Berwick, sit down with the DI and tell him what we've got, as concerned citizens." "Okay?" "That's the hotel where the girl works, yeah?" "I'm going to check it out." "Mr Humby." "Good." "Uh-huh." "Suffocation." " What about forensics?" " Cole." "Uh-huh." "Hang on." "What are you doing, Cole?" "We're going for a drink." "Do you want one?" "Been to the church ." "Talked to the bus driver." "Can you bear with me a second?" "Look, we've established alibi and time frame." "There's no firm evidence pointing towards your suspect." "Arrest him for interfering and obstructing an investigation." "Look, can you give all that to Claire?" "Maxwell." "Yeah." "I think I'm going to be seeing her soon." " Yeah." "Cheers, mate." " Who are you?" "A concerned citizen." "Yeah, the footage from the helicopter." "Yes, I understand the night vision camera can't capture a usable image for identification purposes." "Do we have him leaving the house?" "Okay, thanks." "I'll order his release." "If we get anything, we'll pick him up again." "Yeah?" " Detective Cole asked me to give this to you." " What is it?" "I've got no idea." "Bing." "Oh, well done." "Yeah, all right." "How long does it take to get to Berwick-upon-Tweed?" "How are you meant to be helping me if you're banged up like I am?" "You want to talk to me about 1973?" "What?" "You heard!" "Yeah, well, he had a big mouth just like yours." "He was beating on me." "What was I supposed to do?" " Any other surprises I should know about?" " Hey, hey, both of you." "Just calm down." "I'm losing a little faith in this whole "injustice system"." "I'm pretending I don't know you two." "Too late." "Look, it's not just about me, Nicky." "A girl is dead." "Don't forget." "Hi, Frank." "Yeah, these two are mine." "Miss Maxwell, you look after them?" "Detective Inspector Russell Bing." "You have two of my boys." "What are we going to do about it?" "I expressly told you not to go to Holy Island, didn't I?" " Didn't I?" " Yeah, boss." "Cole?" " Yes, sir." " And what did you do?" "You did it anyway." "He was right to arrest you." "If I caught someone interfering in my investigation, I'd throw away the key." "I've total confidence that Detective Inspector Simpkins knows what he's doing." "Your presence working behind his back undermines him." "It's an outrage and an embarrassment, and you haven't heard the end of it." "I'll deal with you internally." "Now, get out of my sight." "The man's a clown." "Wait for me outside." "Thank you for that." "I'm just so sorry this ever happened." "You would think detectives of their experience would understand what you're up to." "How do you mean?" "I think you're doing a first-rate job running this investigation." "It's a risky strategy, but, you know, "Risk and reward"." "I'm not sure it's risky." "Well, I must be a much more conservative operator than you are." "I bet you get results, though." "Yeah?" "Course you do." "You got a local community with a tragedy." "Everybody's talking about it." "Time pressure." "No resources." "It's a brilliant move." "What's that?" "Arrest an outsider." "A black man." "Do it right away, so that your real target thinks the heat's off." "Lull him into making a mistake." "Okay, so Errol Hill gets locked up for 48 hours." "It's inconvenient, a means to an end." "But I bet it'll work." "And the best bit?" "You tried to make him, Errol, a plausible suspect." "Talk to the witnesses." "Let the word get out." "It's a great performance." "Only another police officer would spot it." "We were building a case." "But not the case my two detectives thought you were building, am I right?" "No DNA linking them, am I right?" "Any DNA found on Miss Powers could have been wiped away by the mud and water." "Not on her, on him." "His clothes, his hands." "Nothing." "Right?" "The single blow that knocked her out happened somewhere else and then her body was dumped face down in the muck." "She suffocated." "Cole filled me in." "How did he know that?" "An educated guess." "The timeline doesn't fit." "And nothing but hearsay or circumstantial evidence." "Nothing to make a charge stick." "But you thought to yourself, "I know Errol didn't do it," ""but I'll use him anyway." ""I'll use him to trap the real killer."" "And you know what makes me crazy?" "My two detective sergeants were too stupid to understand what you were up to." "So, how can I help?" "Well, we were about to release him on bail, pending further enquiries." "Right." "Well, why don't I start by making sure none of that race-related, false-arrest bother lands on your desk?" "A girl's dead." "Find her killer." "Hey." " See, I told you it would be all right, didn't I?" " I knew it would be." "The power of prayer." "Right." "Nothing to do with me, then." "What do you think I was praying for?" "And if hair and material were found under the deceased's nails, it would indicate a struggle, and since we know the body was moved..." "Have you seen forensics' report?" "No." "I had your car brought over from the Island, so I suggest you get in it and go home." "Right." "Well, that's what I call service." "All right, tide's rising." "Come on, let's get a move on." "He's gonna pick up Powers and Deevers for questioning." "Where are you going?" "He's invited us to observe." " What about me?" " You're not invited." "Nicky, are you okay?" "I heard what happened." "I was so worried about you." "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine." "I better rush, Beth." "I'll call you." " I'll see you, okay?" " Thank you." " Who was that?" " Er, Matty's teacher." "Bet he does well at school." "Steve?" "It has all the hallmarks of a crime of passion." "Janice Powers wasn't thinking about killing herself." "She was planning on killing her husband after she found out he was having an affair." "She attacks them." "He hits her, thinks he killed her, dumps her body on the causeway." "There's nothing you could have done to stop it, mate." "Wrong time, wrong place." "I'll get our bags." "So, you turned down a weekend with me in a posh hotel for this?" "Yeah." "Good call, eh?" "Mr Powers?" "Police." "We'd like to speak to you." "He's running." "It's not his day, is it?" "Berwick 3, request aerial support." "Cole, where are you?" "Cole, why are you slowing down?" "It won't go any faster." "Kills his wife 'cause he can't keep it in his pants." "I say castration." "Limited edition CD, which shows off Rick's gentler side." "If you buy it from me, I get a commission." "I'll think about it." "Not selling well, Rick." "Hi, hon." "Yeah, I'm working really hard here." "Hey, you're making us blush, man." "Claire?" "Why did you abandon Jenson?" "Yates couldn't put him in the house." "Paddy, you changed your story on Jenson." "Why?" "All right, guys, that's enough." "I feel a cup of tea coming on." "I've had enough." "Come on, Michael." "Next holiday, we go to London." "It's safer in London."
