"Hi, gorgeous." " Can I pretend you're talking to me?" "Yeah, as long as you don't tell your boyfriend." " We have no secrets." "That's my nose broken." "Inappropriate?" " Just a little." "It's been a long day and I'm obviously overtired." "I thought I was going to get off early but, oh, no." "The great controller in the sky decides to flick my ear and test my patience." "What have we got?" " An old aged pensioner who..." "Nice pension." "Who was assaulted by..." " By Detective Inspector Bing for flirting with you?" "That was a lot inappropriate." " I'm improving." "I'm starting again." "Why don't you join me?" "Robbery." "OAP named Fred Beecham opens the door to what he thinks is a delivery man." "The man pushes his way inside and beats him up." "Forensics on their way?" " Yeah." "Witnesses?" "None." "The wife got home and found him in the entry hall." "Time?" "She was out at the shops." "We've got a window between 5:00 and 5:30." "Do we know what was taken?" "Cole." "All right, Paddy?" " What's going on?" "Oh, your basic robbery and assault in the home." "What's going on with you?" "I heard the call." "I knew you were coming off shift in half an hour." "I thought I'd help you out." "You're doing me a favour?" " Yeah." "If you don't want me to, I'll go." " No, no, no, I'm cool with that." "Paddy's doing me a favour." "Just when I thought I couldn't catch a break, Paddy comes along and does me a favour." "I mean, is the universe perverse or what?" "You are looking good, you know, Brooksy." "Don't you think she's looking good?" "It's that magical thing that happens to women." "They get a boyfriend and suddenly their temperature goes way up." "They're hot and they don't even realise it." "See you." "Cheers, mate." "You got a boyfriend?" "No." "You're Claire Maxwell, aren't you?" "Yeah." " Oh, you've got a baby now." "No." "Have we?" "I'm sorry, I don't remember your name." "No, of course you do." "Last year, magistrates' court." "Nice to meet you." "Gemma, my baby, died." "Your boyfriend..." " Yeah, Terry." "Terry Howard." "They said he did it." "Well, actually, you said he did it." "No, the jury did." "Look, I'm sorry." "I've really..." "I've got to go." "I thought he did it as well." "The police, the Social Services, they all had me convinced." "But listen, I don't think he did it." "Not any more I don't." "I have actually tried to call you about this, but you haven't returned any of my calls." "I get that now." "You didn't remember." "So I've had to follow you." "But I'm not stalking you or anything." "Erica, look, this is..." "It's nothing to do with me." "No, that's the thing." "It is." "Well, I mean, it might be." "Terry's trying to get an appeal." "But it's just taking so long for the legal aid solicitor to even talk to us about it." " That's because the process takes so long." "Terry's been beaten up in prison for being a baby killer, but he didn't do it." "Look, Erica, I'm really sorry, but I've got to go." "I can't help you" "Listen, no, I've been up and I've looked on the web about the CPS." "They say if you get new information, you got to give them to the Criminal Case Review Commission." "I have got new information." "Look, maybe you should just give this to his solicitor." "I have and I've made a copy for you." "You have got an obligation here." "That's what it says." "Now, can you please read it for me?" "Please?" "It's Irene again." "Clarky, you answer it." "Howay, man." "She's all sulky with me." "Look, she'll just keep calling unless you deal with it." "Sergeant Astel's phone, Police Constable Clark speaking." "Hello, Irene." "Erm, no, he's not available." "No, he's not eating." "He's in the middle of... making an arrest." "I need backup, Clarky." "Look, I'll have to go, Irene." "He needs me to help him save the world and stuff." "Yeah, I'll tell him." "Don't worry, Rick, I'll save you." "You think she's gonna believe that?" "You saving me?" "Who's gonna believe that?" " You guys are saving the world." "Don't look at me." "I thought it was a nice touch about saving the world." "No one's complaining about that, man." "It's you saving me that doesn't ring true." "Yates on tonight?" "Yeah." "He's late." "No, he took over from me at a crime scene so I could clock off." "That's not like him." "Must be sucking up to Bing." "He's done me a favour." "Strange but true." "Yeah, a favour." "Right." "Well, when he gets all the credit, it won't seem like a favour." "Not much of a credit in it, really." "Some old guy, Fred Beecham, gets beaten up and robbed in his house." "No witnesses." "Feels like a lot of work and no result." "Fred Beecham?" " I thought Fred Beecham was dead." "What, and Yates did you a favour?" "Yeah, why?" "Well, if a Beecham gets done, right, chances are there's a Dungary behind it." "They're two of the biggest organised crime families." "There's no love lost between them." "We put Dungary away last year for extortion." "Yeah." "One of them." "Irene again." "Clarky." "A favour?" "Please?" "Sergeant Astel's phone, Police Constable Clark." "Hello again, Irene ." "Yeah, yeah, he's fine." "He can't speak right now." "He's having mouth-to-mouth resuscitation." "But it looks like it's working." "Let's go, let's go, let's go." "All right." "Not too much energy, like this." "Yeah, yeah." "Too fast, too fast, too fast." "Yeah." "Just keep the jab, just do the jab." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Don't hurt your teeth." "Put a wrap of tape around them so they won't come loose." "Got it?" " Yeah, got it." "Errol?" " Hey, Mrs Bancroft." "Is Michael here?" "No, he hasn't turned up." "Is something wrong?" "He's run away from his foster family." "He didn't go into school." "I was hoping he might be here with you." "He left before his foster parents were awake." "He'll turn up." "If he was coming here, he'd have done it by now." "It's night, Nicky." "Where is he gonna sleep tonight?" "He's a little boy, Nicky." "Anything could happen." " Look..." "Listen, listen, Ratty is tough, okay?" "He's not stupid." "And this isn't the first time, is it?" "He'll be all right." "Do you believe that?" "Or are you just trying to make it feel better?" "The boy can live on his wits, okay?" " If he gets caught thieving again, Nicky, he'll be put away." "Okay, okay." "Hey, Rick." "Do us a favour, mate." "Ratty's gone walkabout again." "Yeah." "Can you get some boys out there looking for him?" "Oh, thank goodness." " I'm gonna tear a strip off him." "Hang on, Rick." "Hey, Errol." "What's going on?" "I'll call you back." "Don't look so happy to see me." "You gonna let me in?" "Come on, boy." "Who's he?" "Matty, this is Adam." "I'm your father." "Is he?" "Yeah." "Nicky." "Hey." "Long time, huh?" " Yeah." "You hungry, boy?" "Errol, you're still just like mama." "Food make everything better, yeah?" "Nicky." "You hungry?" "No, no, I'm good." "I'm hungry." "You need to eat, Nicky." "I could just look at you and see that you need to eat." "I better go." "Done." " 11 minutes." "11 minutes?" " More like 12." "Nobody can do these forms in seven minutes." " Training manual says you can." "If we have to fill in one of these every time we stop somebody, we'll spend our lives in here." "This must be the only job known to mankind where they make rules to stop you doing your job, then dump on you because you can't do it." "We just don't stop anybody." "Easy." " Come on, let's go." "Do we have to?" "Me dogs are barking." "Nicky wants us to look for Ratty." " He's done another runner?" "Yeah." "Come on, then." "How long you been out?" "Two weeks, two weeks tomorrow." "You didn't get my letter?" " No." "Yes, you did." "You just didn't open them." "I didn't think it was from you." "It's okay, Errol." "I got seven years of thick skin." "You have a place to stay?" "You can stay here." "No, I'm good for tonight." "Was prison scary?" "No." "The people in it are." "Nicky said you sold drugs and hurt people." "He's always trying to make me look good." "Somebody else did." "I didn't run fast enough." "I'm a pretty fast runner." " I'll bet you are." "I had a picture of you in my head." "Got it all wrong." "You're a big boy now." "Where you staying in London?" "You remember Jade?" "She started writing to me a couple of years back." "She's done good." "She's working in PR for a record label." "I'm stopping with her until I get myself sorted." "You remember her, Nicky?" "Yeah." "So you were innocent?" "And you didn't do nothing?" "Didn't do nothing except be unlucky." "And run slow." " Yeah." "But that's unfair." "You don't get nowhere thinking things will be fair, do you?" "Right, Matty." "Time for bed." "Let these boys talk." "Okay." "Night." "Night, little man." "Good night." "Good night." "You did a good job with him." "I don't want you here." "You're making that plain." "Good." " See, I wondered how you'd be." "What's this gonna be like?" "You gonna shut the door in my face?" "Take a swing at me?" "I want you to go." " But I said..." "Now." " I'm his big brother." "It's up to me to step up and say I'm sorry for everything." "And thank you for looking after my boy." "Okay, you said it." "Now, go." "I know who I am." "I want you to know who I am." " I know who you are." "You know who I was." "You can't sit there telling Matty you're innocent, then telling me you've changed." "I know I'm not innocent but I don't have to tell him all that tonight." "You know how much I missed that boy?" "Safe journey back." "You..." "You forget who you are." "I don't forget." "Still trying to be everybody's favourite black man." "See you." "You going?" "Yeah, yeah." "Got to head off." "You come back tomorrow, yeah?" " I don't know." "Of course you are, boy." "You are gonna come back tomorrow and chat with Matty and tell me your plans." "You're always welcome here, boy, you know that." "Yeah, okay." "Tomorrow." "What do you think you're doing?" "I'm trying my best, and I expect you to do the same." "I don't want him in this house." " I heard what you said to him!" "He has the same blood in his veins that you have, you know." "How much did it cost his pride to walk through that door?" "He doesn't have a lot, you know, Nicky." "You gonna take it all from him?" "Turn your back?" "You were always the strongest." "He was always weaker than you." "Now, when you're strong, you take him in your heart and forgive him." "I made the same mistake when he was a boy." "I'm not gonna make it again." "And you are not gonna make it now." "I'm gonna see how they're getting on with finding Ratty." "We'll get you off." "Don't you worry, we'll get you off." "I have got new information." "Listen, it says that you've got an obligation." "That's what it says." "Now can youjust read it for me, please?" "Come on, please." "Mum!" "Mum, look, I really need your help." "He's not going to be around the station." "He's no fool." "He knows we'll look here." "I just wanted to check." " You know what the station's like." "I don't want to be negotiating with a drunken yob." "Well, we've done what we can." "We're not going to find him." "Yeah." "He's probably found somewhere to kip." "Absolutely right." "I'm shagged." "We need a break." "We cannot call in for a break." "They'll know we're skiving." "Then there'll be a report." "Then a disciplinary hearing." "Suspension, all because you're shagged." "Are your dogs barking?" " Yapping." "I'm shagged." "You're yapping." "We stop five people." "For what?" " Doesn't matter for what." "If we stop them, we gotta fill in a form." "Just tell Humby I wanna know if he's got anything." "Fred Beecham." "Assault and robbery." "Just get him to call me before he goes home." "Yeah." "I told you I'd handle it." "Hey, I don't want you phoning me." "Girl trouble?" " What?" "Yeah." "Yeah, yeah." "Always checking up on you." "Did you get anything from Beecham?" "Well, he's stable." "A bit confused." "He won't be out of hospital for a while." "Can he describe his attacker?" " No." "Wearing a hoodie and a scarf." "What about accent?" " Beecham doesn't remember him speaking." "It's not much to go on." " Forensics?" "I'm waiting for Humby to get back to me." " It's odd." "What?" "What is?" "You break into a house, you assault the occupant, don't you ask where the valuables are?" "Beecham doesn't remember him asking anything." " Well, you said he was a bit confused." "Yeah." "The wife's still trying to work out if anything's been stolen." "Maybe they got scared off before they could grab anything." "I better get on with the paperwork." "Good luck with your girlfriend." "Yeah, maybe I need a new one." "My boat's sailed." "There's one." "Well spotted, Clark." "Go fetch." "Excuse me, madam?" "Can I have a word?" "She says she hasn't broken the law, Sergeant." " That's grand." "Get her details." "A little light reading?" "Yeah." "I couldn't concentrate at home." "Are you in court tomorrow?" " No." "No, this was a case I brought last year." "A man was convicted of shaking his girlfriend's baby to death." "Yeah, I remember that one." "Cole was on it." "Yeah." "It's the sort of case that makes you nostalgic for the death penalty." "Unless he didn't do it." "Yeah, right." "The jury didn't have any doubts, did they?" " No." "No, they didn't." "What if they were wrong?" "How do you do your job if you're always thinking about what ifs?" "Well, how else do you do it?" "We got a win on that one." "What's the problem?" "Why else would she give me her phone number when I asked for her details?" "It's sociobiology." "A little switch in her brain had gone into finding-mate mode." "See, it's the same ancient instincts at work." "That's why they wear high heels because they're sending a message to men that says," ""I cannot run very fast so you can take me for your mate."" "Just like cavemen used to grab women by the hair." "Same sort of principle." "Has he been on the internet again?" "Absolutely not." "How do you know cavemen used to grab woman by the hair?" "Flintstones." "You're dedicated." "Yeah, well, you know, no hot date, chat rooms are down, so I thought I'd do a little light work." "Yeah, I wish I'd known earlier." "No, you don't." "Is this what we've come to?" "Some glib comment in a corridor?" "Don't say anything in case it means too much." "Yeah, I guess." "Keep the genie in the bottle." "Yeah, 'cause who knows what would happen if we ever let it out?" "You see, you could be my big mistake." "Oh, look at that." "A terrible mistake." "I'll have to start this one again." "Hey, gorgeous." " Hey..." "I think he was talking to me." "Yeah, of course he was." "You writing up Beecham?" " Yeah." "Got anything?" " Not yet." "Why aren't you at home?" "Look at that." "Terrible mistake." "I'll have to start this one again." "You got anything on Ratty?" "Er, no." "And we looked in all the usual places." "Only a fool would be out in the cold tonight, and the boy's no fool." "Do you want us to fill in a missing juvenile?" "No, no, I'll do the report." " No, I'm happy to do it." "Could take us a while, but I'm happy to do it." "All right, thanks." "I think I know where Ratty might be." "You think he was wearing gloves?" "Yeah." "Okay, cheers." "No, go home, Mr Humby." "Just get me the report tomorrow, yeah?" "Okay, bye." "How you getting on with Beecham?" "The motive looks like robbery." "No prints." "The assailant was wearing gloves." "This will be a tough one to unravel." "Apparently there was a villain in the '70s by the name of Fred Beecham." "Not the same one, is it?" "No idea." "If it is, might open up some new lines of enquiry." "You know, revenge or something." "Yeah, that's not a bad thought." "You didn't come in just to hold me hand on this, did you?" "No, I was missing you." "Michael Milburn." "You know, Rat Boy." "He's done a runner." "Got worried about him." "Come to check something out." "Yeah, I'll check Beecham's background." "It's just a thought." " I was thinking about looking at similar MOs." "Perpetrators we've picked up in the past." "See if that gets us anywhere." "Yeah." "Yeah, sounds like a plan." "Good luck with it." "Cheers." "It's Irene again." "I thought you were all hot and heavy with her." " Taking a break." "It's all my fault ." "Irene doesn't like me." "It was me or her." "It wasn't that tough to decide, was it?" "It doesn't matter." "We've kind of gone through all the phases." "What phases?" "You know, you start with attraction, and then there's hope, then anticipation and then there's..." "Results." "Success?" "Love?" " No, you know..." "Are we there yet?" "Is this it?" "And then there's nostalgia." "Which is kind of where we're at now." "What happened to contentment?" "Fulfilment?" "Happiness?" "Did I miss that one out?" "Brooksy, you got time to take a ride?" "Yeah." "But my parents want me back before midnight." "Are you Angela Milburn?" "What do you want?" "Your son's Michael Milburn?" "He's not here." "Detective Sergeant Cole." "We're trying to find him." "I told you he's not here." "He doesn't live here." "You haven't heard from him?" "No." "Is that it?" "Look, I'm not going to nick him or take him back to his foster parents." "I just want to make sure he's safe." "If you see him..." " I told you." "I don't know where he is." " Tell him to call me." "I won't let anything happen to him." "We're just worried about him." "Tell him, yeah?" "I know her." "That's nothing to brag about." "Why do I know her?" "Chances are it'll be one of those things that when you remember it, you'll wish you hadn't." "You make my past sound more exciting than it really is." "Don't tell me that, you'll kill the fantasy." "Work." "I know her from work." "That's it, fantasy bubble totally popped." "Do you want to check anywhere else?" "No, I found him." "He's there." "How do you know that?" "Police come to your house, ask about your son who's in care, who you fought to keep." "All she says is, "He's not here."" "She doesn't ask what's happened or if he's all right." "She doesn't ask because she knows he's done a runner and she knows he's all right." "She knows because he's there." "You'll have to tell the Social." "Nah, not tonight." "Mum." "Is Emmy okay?" "No..." "No, there's no reason." "It's just..." "Oh, you know, I just wanted to make sure." "Matty, what's going on?" "You all right?" " Can't sleep." "Come on, little man." "We both need to get some sleep." "Is Ratty okay?" "Yes." "Don't worry." "Go back to bed." "My dad seems all right." "He seems like you." "You said he wasn't all right." "Before." "Is he all right?" "You don't like him." "Do you wanna get in?" "Come on." "Is it okay to like him?" "Let's just take everything one day at a time." "All right?" "Matty up?" "Yeah." "Listen, Errol, I've really got to figure out how to handle this thing with Adam." "I can deal with Adam." "It's you I'm worried about, boy." "I'll try and keep an open mind." "That's progress, boy, that's progress." "Just don't make him feel too welcome." "That's an open mind?" "There's still a gap between trying and having." "Look, I'll lay the rules down." "If he respects them, we respect him." "Yeah." "Can I get a little more conviction please, boy?" "Yeah." "He's got enough convictions for both of us." "You let me know about Ratty, yeah?" "They spent nearly £10,000 getting a conviction on a driver who was drinking a cup of coffee." "It's disgraceful." "I'm glad it wasn't us." "It was us." "Well, not you and me, us, but like, you know, us here in general, us." "It was?" "I struggle to get resources and we do that." "It's a disgrace." "I think it was mainly the CPS that was driving it." " Of course it was." "Had to be." "You know why I like you?" "Probably not something to talk about here." "You make me feel better about myself." "I struggle with that." "Morning, boss." "Brookes." "Hmm." "Is this your victim from yesterday?" "Fred Beecham?" "Yeah." "A lot older now, but, yeah, it looks like the same guy." "You remember Terry Howard?" "In the death of baby Gemma Reidy?" "The shaken-baby case?" "He shook his girlfriend's baby to death." "Yeah, that is what we alleged." "It was more than an allegation." "He was convicted." " Convicted on the basis of a 40-year-old theory that we now know today might not be true and we never questioned it." "We're not doctors." " No." "No, we're not." "Look, it's just that I have some new information and I'm trying to determine its credibility, okay?" "I would like to look at your case notes and I was just wondering if you would get them for me." "Er, the case is closed." "He's gone to prison." "It's not our remit to reopen it." "Well, it might be mine." "Look, don't let it get personal." "Send it up the line, let them deal with it." "Nicky, nobody is going to want to touch this." "It's flammable." "And anyway, she came to see me so it's already personal." "I am not gonna duck it!" "Didn't the baby have bleeding behind the eyes and on the brain consistent with Shaken Baby Syndrome?" " Yeah." "What if, okay, just what if there was another explanation?" "What, the pathologists and doctors and police experts were all wrong?" "That's a very big what if." "You know what?" "At the end of last year, the Attorney General wondered if the 97 convictions on the basis of Shaken Baby Syndrome theory were safe." "97." "It means SBS has been validated 97 times by the judges and juries." "Well, like you said, that's a very big what if." "Because none of those judges and juries knew then what we know now." "Look, Terry Howard was a young man who admitted he lost his temper with the baby from time to time." "I lose my temper from time to time with my baby, but I don't shake it to death." "Well, you're not him." "He was found guilty." "We proved he was guilty." "If you are an advocate for the truth, you pursue the truth beyond the point where you think it's been found." "You're an advocate for the Crown." "Nicky." "When you're done." "Yeah, I'm done." "Will you get me the information?" "Please?" "Please?" "It's the same Fred Beecham." "Not dead yet." "Paddy won't like you interfering with his case." " I'm doing him a favour." "Oi!" "We're looking for Jack Dungary." "Never heard of him." "He owns this place." "Sorry, mate." "I just work here." "Well, if you get a flash of inspiration and suddenly remember him, tell him we'd like to speak to him." "Number's on the card." "Hey, Errol!" "Hey, boy." "How you doing?" " Good, good." "Hey, you remember Jade?" "The girl I told you about?" "My lifeline." "Well, I don't remember her like this." "Mmm, good to see you, girl." "Good to see you, hi." "You can let go now, yeah?" "You got to watch this man, you know." "I want to get back and speak to Bing." "Won't take long." "You said you'd take care of it." "Either you're a liar or you're not very good." "Which is it?" "I'm sorting it." "Then why are they looking for me?" "I'm not happy, Paddy." "I pay you to make me happy." "It'll go away." "Who's this Detective Cole?" "He's a colleague." "I'll handle it, okay?" "I'm expecting you to." "What do you want?" " Angela, open the door, please." "No!" "Quick as you can, yeah?" "If you broke that, you'll pay for it." "There's a non-contact order." "I know he's here." "I'm going to have to tell the Social and I don't want to do that." "Oh, no." "Please don't say anything." "Amber." "You called yourself Amber." " Not any more." "I nicked you." "He's my boy." "What am I supposed to do if he comes to me?" "Just turn him away?" "Are you clean?" " Yes." "You're not working any more?" "No." "I got a lot of time for your boy." "I won't let anything happen to him, you hear?" "I don't want him to run." "I just want him safe." "Tell him that, yeah?" "I'll get your door sorted." "So, what kind of things does Matty like?" " He loves football." "He a Chelsea fan?" "Shh." "Not a word to be mentioned in this house!" "Fulham." "Fulham?" " Mmm-hmm." "Didn't think they'd be stylish enough for Nicky." " You asked about Matty." "What time does Nicky get home from work?" "Depends on how busy he is." "Oh, yeah." "Busy job saving the world." "Jade." "Lovely, thank you." "I want a word with you, boy." "I'm in trouble." "I love you, Adam." "I love you and I failed you." "I'm not gonna fail you again." "Okay." "I'm good with that." "I love you, too." "I want you back in this family, but you'll have to work at it, boy." "It's for you to decide." "There are rules." " I've had years of rules, Errol." "I can live with rules." "You respect your brother for who he is, what he's achieved and what he's done for Matty." "You love and nurture your boy." "You don't let him down by getting yourself into trouble." "You put your past behind you." "You break these rules, you disrespect me." "You disrespect me..." "I'll forget I know you." "Okay." "I know the rules." "You've got to go." "Get out of here, all right?" "But I don't want to go back to that family." "I don't care what you want." "You're ruining me life." "You can't stay here." "You'll just get in more trouble." "Why can't I stay with you?" "Because they say you can't." "What are you, daft?" "You're not meant to be here." "Why can't you get it into your head?" "Will you just go?" "Weren't you working last night, Paddy?" " Yes, boss." "I don't need much sleep, either." "Just good quality." "Look at this." "Performance target reporting." "Take me all week to work through this." "Didn't join up to be an accountant." "I wanted to speak to you about the Beecham assault and robbery." "Yeah, right." "Speak." "The lack of forensics puts us in a box." "Cole had an idea." "I thought it was a good strategy but I wanted to get your blessing before I went forward." "You make me sound like a bishop." "I got a local man convicted on a string of attacks and robberies with similar MOs." "He was released on probation about six weeks ago." "I wanna pick him up." "See if there's anything in it." "You're blessed." "Dermot Ferguson?" " Yeah?" "Can I speak to you, please?" "Detective Sergeant Yates." "Can you tell me where you were between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm on Wednesday the 17th of this month?" "On me way home from work, I guess." "Do you have anyone that can vouch for that?" " I don't know offhand." "Would you mind coming with us, sir?" " I just got this job two weeks ago." "I don't want to lose it." "I'm happy to answer your questions, but if I leave work..." "I'd like to speak to you now, please, sir." " I don't want to come with you." "No." "I just told you." "I don't want to lose this job." "Mr Ferguson, you're under arrest in connection with the assault and robbery of a Mr Fred Beecham." "Please don't do this." "Take him to the car, give him his caution." "You had no reason to be at Mr Beecham's house." "I told you," "I don't know him." "And you say you were walking home between 4:00 and 6:00?" "Two hours?" "Sometimes I take a bus." "I like to walk." "I was in Strangeways for 18 months." "Yeah, I like to walk." "There's nothing wrong with that." "Help yourself, Dermot." "Give us an alibi we can check." "I didn't do it." "I'm trying to sort my life out." "Working every day." "Why would I want to risk everything?" "You only picked me up for what happened before." "What happened before was a conviction for crimes very similar to this one." "You can't use that in court." "I've served my sentence." "I just want to get on." "Interview terminated at 14:50." "Is that it?" "I can go?" "No." "Beecham and Dungary have fought skirmishes since the '70s over the docks, smuggling, racketeering." "When Fred Beecham retired, he passed the operation on to his nephews." "When we find Jack Dungary, we find out what happened to Fred Beecham." "That's where we should be looking." "Why isn't Yates doing that?" "Bad news, Paddy." "SOCO found nothing." "Paddy, you check the background of Fred Beecham?" "Yes, boss." " You know who he is?" "Of course." "Did you tell him about Beecham and Dungary?" "If this was a hit, he'd be dead." "He's an OAP who got robbed and beaten." "What, you don't want me to investigate because he's a villain?" "If that's our policy, let me know, I'll release my suspect." "What, you picked up a suspect?" "Matching MO." "No alibi." "Keep going." "See where it gets you." "You trying to hijack my investigation?" "No, just trying to help." "If you want it, take it." "Lighten up, Paddy." "Frank?" "No." "Is the crime scene still taped off and secure?" "Yeah, just waiting for you to sign off." "Right, I want SOCO to sweep it one more time." " Okay." "Right, I'll meet you there." "Terry Howard had no previous convictions." "Howard, Erica Reidy and her baby had no history with Social Services." "There were no registered concerns by the GP or any record of injuries to the baby prior to her death." "Were there any marks on the body suggesting abuse?" "No." " Well, how did he say it happened?" "Howard said he dropped the baby." "It's in the transcript of the 999 call he made." "He said the same thing to the doctors at AE." "Dropped the baby on its bottom." "Spot the lie." "Well, what if he wasn't lying?" "The pathology report clearly describes bleeding behind the eyes and on the brain." "You ever dropped Emmy before?" " No." "Well, yes." "Look, just once, okay?" "She just slipped from my hands onto the carpet." "And her brain didn't haemorrhage." " Did the baby have whiplash?" "I don't know, I didn't read the whole thing." "You can if you want." "Hey!" " Hey." "Oh." "See you later." " See you." "Is that your friend?" "This is my friend, Jade." "She your girlfriend?" "Are you?" "Well, I'm a girl... and I am a good friend of your dad's." "You got a girlfriend?" "Got a boyfriend?" " Oh!" "Mr Humby." " Yeah, it's still me." "You're not going to do anything to us?" "No, don't be silly." "Or me mum." "Promise you won't do anything to me mum." "Yeah, I promise." "Nothing's gonna happen to her, okay?" "Don't make me go back to them foster parents." "Please don't make us." "Hey, look at me." "Michael." "Where you gonna go?" "Why we stopping?" "Just collecting something." "What are you doing?" "She baked me a cake, chocolate." "Be churlish to say no." "Hi, big bear." " Hi, pumpkin." "It's all nice and soft and squidgy between the layers, just the way you like it." " Oh, Irene." "You're a beauty." "Oh, did you have to bring him?" "Irene, he's my partner." "Come on." "Uniform 6, Uniform 8, officers requested." "We've got to go." " High 1, Fort's road." "Got to go." " What, he shouts and you jump?" "We're on duty, pumpkin." "What am I gonna do with you?" "Why can't you just accept him, eh?" "Think of him as the puppy you never had." "All right, I'll try harder." " Thanks." "Hey, hey!" "Don't give him any of that!" "No way." "What'd you find?" "Can you get DNA?" "You all right?" " Yeah, not the best way to start a shift." "Where is it?" "Single gunshot wound to the head." "Suicide?" " There's no gun by the body." "And it didn't happen in the last few hours." "Any ID?" "Sergeant, any ID?" " Didn't find any." "Pull yourself together, Constable." "Yes, boss." "You've got chocolate on your face, Sergeant." "Here." " Thanks." "Right, I want to know who he was." "SOCO and forensics on their way?" " Yes, boss." "Yo, 50p!" "Boy, you see that?" "Are we good, yeah?" "That Matty's friend?" "The one he was worried about?" "Yeah." "Yeah, he told me about him." "Been telling me everything." "Won't stop talking." "Must have been too much time around Errol, eh?" "Well, he's easily amused." "When I was his age..." " Don't." "Don't compare yourself to him." "Yeah." "All right." "Can I compare him to you, then?" "Will that make you feel better?" "Guess who?" "Hey." "Adam said he was staying with you." "I drove him up." " See this girl here?" "She's been brilliant, man." "Don't know what I would have done without her." " You'd have been fine." "She's a life-saver." "I'm telling you, a real life-saver." "Hasn't changed, has he?" "Always doing the talk." "Well, I better tell Errol that Ratty's here." "I'll keep an eye on Matty, yeah?" "Me and him's cool." "Sorry." "You all right, boy?" "Ratty's outside and the social worker, Mrs Bancroft, is on her way over." "Are you sure?" "Yeah, I'm sure." " All right." "Can you check Dermot Ferguson's personal-effects bag?" "Cheers." "Did he have cigarettes on him?" "Brand?" "The dead man is Dougie Shattock, AKA David Young, AKA Teeside." "Forty-three years old." "Eighteen of them in prison." "I've come across his name before." "He was muscle for the Dungary family." "Looks like he was assassinated." "Sounds like someone did the world a favour." "They've found a second blood type on the body." "Not his." "May have been a struggle." " You run it with Cole." "Let me know as and when." "I promised Michael I wouldn't let anything happen to him and I'm making the same promise to you." " It's not something I can decide on my own." "We need to look at the case and discuss..." " For now." "Until you can do what you have to do." "Have you asked Michael?" "Boy!" "Over here!" "You're no different from the rest of them." "Michael, would you like to stay with Georgina for a while until we can sort something out?" "I'd like that." "Yeah, I guess." "I'll be staying there, too, so there'll be no playing up." "I'll speak to you tomorrow." "Do you want to see your room?" "So, you're staying with Georgina?" "Adam and Jade are staying in my room tonight." "No point in them paying for a hotel." "Yeah, I can see the point in that." " So why you arguing?" "You were really a gangster?" "Yeah." " See, I told you." "Cool." " No, no, no, it is not cool." "It is a long way from cool." "It's nothing to want to be." "Yeah." "Listen to Errol." "What did you want to be?" "He wanted to be Shaft." " Who's Shaft?" "For about 12 seconds." "Nicky wanted to be Sidney Poitier." "No, I didn't." " Who's Sidney Poitier?" "Remember you both had baby 'fros when you were Matty's age?" "Like Kool and the Gang?" " Well, he still does." "Who's Kool and the Gang?" "♪ Celebrate good times, come on!" "♪" "Matty, Michael, time for bed." "Yeah, yeah, come on, Matty." "Listen, I'll put Matty to bed." "Good night, Nicky." "Good night, Matty." "Yeah, all right." "Good night, Georgina." "Nice to meet you." " Good night." "Yeah, night, Matty." "Sleep well." "He wrote me this really long letter apologising for any hurt he'd caused me over the years." "He said it was part of his therapy." "I didn't get one." "He wrote you one." "You never responded." "I wrote back to him." "He needed a friend." "I did, too." "He's been a great support to me." "He's different now, you know." "You can't be in prison that long and not be different, but he's changed." "He's good." "Well, you should take some of the credit for that." " No." "I'm just trying to be a friend." "I think it's Matty." "That's all he ever talks about." "Matty is what gives him a future." "It makes him whole." "He was desperate to come up here and see him." "You've been good to let him in, give him a chance." "It was good of you to bring him up." "I wanted to come." "I wanted to see you." "Morning." "Morning." "It was good last night, man." "Haven't had a family meal like that since..." "Since before mum died." "It was good." "Yeah, Errol can cook." "Yeah." "I had a good chat with Matty." "I love that boy." "I promised to take him to Craven Cottage." "Well, if that's all right with you." "Yeah, that's okay." "Thanks." "No, I mean that." "Thank you." "Thank you for coming in to see me." "Thank you for listening to me." "Oh, I forgot to ask, sorry." "How's your baby?" "She's fine, thank you." "She's great." "She's really beautiful." "I'm instructing you to preserve all files relating to the murder of baby Gemma Reidy by Terence Howard pending consideration for appeal by the Criminal Cases Review Commission." "Did you notify them?" " No, but I'm going to." "There was no mention of whiplash in the pathology report." "How do you violently shake a baby to death without causing whiplash?" "I'm sure there's an explanation." "Yeah, and it may be that it didn't happen." "Not the way we thought." "Do you know that there was a study recently by a neuropathologist which suggested that a jolt on the spine from a fall, now we're talking a fall about three feet, can shock the brain stem, switching off the breathing while the heart keeps pumping." "And then the blood seeps from the weakest points in the body," "I.e. the brain and the tissue behind the eyes." "Doctors come up with theories all the time." " Three foot." "Nicky, come on, that's the distance between my arm and the ground." "Now, Terence Howard said he dropped her." "You know, Erica Reidy loses her baby and then she's told that the man she loves killed it." "Do you know what I think?" "I think too many bad things happen because we need to make things black and white." "We need to believe we know the truth, as long as it fits the truth we know." "Claire." "I'll make sure the files are safe and secure." "Look, it's just that they deserve an appeal, you know?" "I hope they get it." "You're getting too good for me, boy." "You're beginning to scare me." "I'm going to do the shopping." "See you at home, yeah?" "I'll be there, Irene." "Don't worry." "Hey, you want to earn ten quid?" "Stop!" "Stop!" " Don't worry, I'll stop him." "You all right, Irene?" " He's got my bag!" "He's taken my bag!" "Shame on you, you little reprobate!" "Oh, thanks!" "No problem." "Thanks so much." "He's a good guy, eh?" "Yeah." "Yeah, he is." "Well done, Clarky." "Boss, good news." "Can I talk to you?" "I thought he said it was good news." " Yeah, I don't know." "Doesn't feel good to me." "Explain." "SOCO sweep the Beecham house, find nothing." "Yates picks up a suspect for questioning, Dermot Ferguson." "Wants the place checked again." "Lo and behold, we find a cigarette butt." "And wait for it..." "We get the DNA match." "For Ferguson?" "What are you thinking?" " It's better I don't think." "I'm talking out of line." "Forget I said anything." " You know I won't." "Yeah." "I'm counting on it." "The second blood type on Shattock?" "The guy with his brains blown out." "I asked them to run it." "I almost hoped I'd be wrong." "It matches Fred Beecham." "Ferguson has form with a similar MO." "We have physical evidence that links him to the scene." "He picks up a suspect and then they find evidence?" "A lot of cases work that way, Cole." "You start with a theory..." " So, Ferguson wears gloves, covers his face and head so he can't be recognised, doesn't speak but leaves a cigarette butt outside?" "An ex-con who knows his DNA's on the database?" " Is he that daft?" "You have attitude with Yates and it's clouding your judgement." "We find a dead body with Beecham's blood on it and a history of working for the Dungary family." "You can't tell me that's not connected." " Look, Yates stitches up Ferguson to close out the case and take Dungary out of the frame." "Prove it." "You can't." "We're starting with a theory, sir." "If I hear you making unsubstantiated allegations against another officer," "I'll fire you both." "If you're searching for the truth, you pursue the truth beyond the point where you think it can been found." "You turn away from this, you won't need to fire me." "What?" "I'll call you back, Mum." "Detective Yates has arrested a Dermot Ferguson." "Yeah." "He's put the file on my desk." "Find me a reason not to charge him." "What?" " Go with me on this." "I'll blame you and we'll have to release him." "Shouldn't be too hard to make it look routine." "You look nice today." "Get inside!" "I just pretended I couldn't see." "I was so embarrassed." "I didn't even know what..." "I want to talk to Adam alone." "What is it?" "You brought drugs into our house and you lied to me." "I never lied to you." "Get out." "Whoa, Errol, let me explain." "Get out of this house now." "Errol, you're getting it all wrong, man." "Listen..." " Get out!" "Don't you put your hand on me." "Get out of this house!" "Get out now!" "Get out!" "Hey." "Where's Adam and Jade?" "Adam had to go." "Why?" "He had to go." "Well, don't worry." "He'll be back." "He knows he's welcome now, doesn't he?" "Subtitles by  Thanks to BlackAmber/SubTeam"
