"I'm sorry." "Dr. Hill." "Dr. Hill?" "Dr. Hill?" "Her husband's on his way." "We're going up to Theatre One." "Her heart rate's erratic." "Six units of O negative straightaway." "Let's move, guys, toghether to the Theatre now." "Mr. Willerton is needed immediately in Theatre One." "Mr. Willerton, please report immediately..." "I'm sorry to have to ask you all these questions, Mr. Benson." "But it's vital we speak while your memory is fresh." "I should be at the hospital." "Well, they'll ring as soon as your wife is out of surgery." "Oh, God!" "Sewing up the second laceration to the aorta." "Suction, come on." "You need to get a better grip of it." "Get your elbow out of my face." "Damn it." "I was at a conference until four." "I left early to pick the girls up from school." "I got home about quarter to." "Did you notice any strangers outside the house" " or anything unusual?" " No." "Not until I got inside." "I saw the blood on the rug, and her laptop." " I told the kids..." " Ask him who moved the rug." " Did you touch anything?" " No." "I called out to Cindy." "And then I went to look upstairs." " Blood pressure still dropping?" " 70 over 30." " There's too much relaxant." " She's tachycardic," " and losing blood." " Suction." "Come on!" "Get one of those Third World morons in here with a Hoover." "You ask if she in there." "Does she always work from home?" " How often did she work from home?" " Two days a week." " Does he work?" " And you?" "I'm an IT consultant." "Freelance." " Yes, but does he actually work?" " How's business?" "Oh, Cindy does OK." "She's just been offered a promotion." "Two-centimetre posterior laceration." "Suture." "Suture!" "Come on!" "Arresting." "Paddles." "Quickly!" " Charge 200." " Charge." "So, she's doing well and he isn't." " Does a new job mean a move?" " Will you have to move?" "She's um..." "We're talking about finding a place in London." "She or we?" " Is she leaving him?" " Will you excuse me a moment, please?" "Mr. Benson, I'm sorry." "Tony, I wanted you to help me question a traumatised witness." "What if he's not a witness?" "Separate beds." "His is unmade." "Their marriage is over and she's taking the children." "No, he's got an alibi, Tony." "We've confirmed his movements." "Check again." "I think after the attack, he put her in the bed." "He was ashamed." "He was undoing." "He moved the rug to hide the blood, then changed his mind, because it had to be visible when he came in, so he could stop the children to seen what he done." "This is all about the children." "I don't think there was an intruder." "Mr. Benson, I'm sorry." "This is going to take a bit longer than I antecipated." " Can someone look after the girls" " No, no." "They're staying with me." "They're better off with me." "You can't take them." "I'm their father." "They're staying with me." "Mr. Benson, if your wife dies, her attacker will serve... 20 years?" "If she lives, he'll serve between five and fifteen, depending on whether he co-operates." "How much of your daughters' childhoods are you prepared to miss?" "I can't let them go." "She just wouldn't listen." "I'm so sorry." "I'm sorry." "That's what I call close." "There." "Closed." "Blood pressure's under 12..." "BP's coming up." " 80 over 40." " Like the Trevi bloody Fountains." " Thanks to you." " Thanks to me?" "The family waiting outside?" "Come on, let's get her out." "I don't think so." "Tell you what." "Let's have these in the canteen." "He'll get more than five years." "Yeah, more like 15, given that it was clearly premeditated, not passionate." " Good job." "Well done." " What's going to happen to the kids?" "Well, hopefully their mother will recover." "Her sister's coming down to look after them, in the mean time." "This is Cindy Benson. 35 years old." "She has just had severe stab wounds to the chest." " Mrs. Benson?" " Perkins." "I'm Cindy's sister." " She never calls herself Benson..." " ..." "I managed to repair the damage." "The prognosis is excellent." "70% chance of a full recovery." " She's gonna live?" " If she doesn't, it won't be my fault." "Any questions, just ask the nurses." "I had a feeling about Benson." "Oh, here we go!" "Well done, all of you." " Thank you, sir." " Thank you very much, sir." "Sir." "Excellent." "Quick result, Carol." "You've excelled yourself." " You conducted Benson's interview?" " Yeah." "I hate to carp, but part of being a DCI is delegating." "I know you're not a glory hunter, but you've got some very talented people." " You should give them a go." " Yes, sir." "And it's high time you had a DI." "Merrick and Geoffries are both good candidates." "Choose one." "I'll let you have my recommendation by the end of the week." "That'll be fine, Chief Inspector." "Sorry." "Right." "Individual differences." " What did you think?" " Rather simplistic, but then I am a senior lecturer." "OK." "I thought I had a tutorial." "I told her to try again tomorrow." "Oh, sorry." "I've been working with the police - an attempted murder." "Glad you've had fun." "I've been in a budget meeting all morning." " Yeah, you love all that stuff." " I can tolerate it." "Except when we're laying people off." "There's a funding crisis, Tony." "Too many students, not enough money, which means fewer lecturers next year." "Well, they'll hardly get rid of you, Kate." "No, they're more likely to pick on someone who postpones seminars and tutorials to spend time" " helping the police." " Is this a bollocking?" "Tony, this is me, Kate." "Not a bollocking." "I postpone seminars because I work with the police." "And I pass on what I learn to my student." "It's real, hands-on experience." " Kate, this is..." " Tony, that's brilliant, but it's not the point." "It might be helping your students, but it's not helping you." "You never get any credit for it." "So, why are you really doing it?" "Trying to impress someone?" "The work I do to police It's worthwhile." "It's something I can do." "Ensuring your future here is something you can do for you and your students." "You need friends here in the university, Tony." " Friends with influence." " Don't you have influence?" "Not enough to stop this happening." "Look on it as a role-playing exercise." "You need to impress the people upstairs, so just pretend you're as solid, reliable, predictable and boring as the others." " And you'll be fine." " Thanks for the advice!" "Start by not talking to yourself." "I'm not talking to myself." "Joan Perkins?" "Hi." "I'm Carol Jordan, Bradfield CID." " How's your sister doing?" " Well, they said she's stable." "Did he really do it, Mark?" "Shall we go through?" "Charge again." "Clear." "We need another line in." "360." "And clear." "Start up the charge." "Prepare for another 360." "Try again." "Charging 360." "And clear." "..17, 18, 19, 20..." "Mrs. Perkins, I'm sorry." "Your sister's heart stopped beating and she didn't respond." "But why?" "You said the prognosis was good." "It was." "These things happen." " It's regrettable, but..." " I'm sorry." "I'm fine." "Can I have a word?" "When's the postmortem?" "I was operating on Mrs. Benson's heart four hours ago." "A postmortem won't be necessary." "Maybe I should see someone more senior." "I'm senior surgeon and I chair the hospital board." "Sorry, you are...?" "DCI Carol Jordan." "Bradfield CID." "I'm sorry." "I know Mrs. Benson was your patient." "But now she's dead, this is a murder investigation." "I really do need a postmortem." "You do know how distressing they can be for family?" "Murder's distressing for everyone." "I'll have her body taken to the police mortuary." "By all means do!" "Hello." "Personnel, sick leave, budgets, discussion papers..." "Oh, look, an invitation to a charity lecture." "Well, you did ask for a DCI." "I only wanted the parking space." "OK, what's up?" "I had a visit from Kate." "I never thought of her as my boss before, but it turns out she is and I'm spending too much time here instead of..." " schmoozing the management." " Yeah." "I teach." "I publish research." "Since when did kissing arse become part of the job description?" "I don't know where to start." "At the bottom, generally." "Anyway, if you don't see me around for a while, that's where I'll be." " Schmoozing." " Well... we have worked a few cases without your help, we'll manage." "I'm not sure I will." " I need..." " The work?" "The company?" "A theory is only as good as its last proven case." "And, yes, I need the company." "Look...you sorted the Benson murder." " You've done enough for now." " You mean, attempted murder." "Cindy Benson died last night." "Heart failure in ICU." "That puts my problems into perspective, doesn't it?" "Vernon's done a postmortem." "He said things just got complicated." "Death was from coronary embolism." "An air bubble in her blood caused a clot in her heart." "How does that complicate things?" "She wasn't killed by her husband, though he had a damn good try." "This happened in ICU." "What happened exactly?" "That's just it." "It's hard to say." "It could have been... a bubble in an intravenous line, freak accident." "And what if it wasn't an accident?" "If I wanted to give someone an embolism, without using an intravenous line  how would I do that?" "Well... you could force air through the skin." "There is this, here." "It's not consistent with an IV site." "It might be a defence wound, but what would inflict it?" "Some sort of modified gas bottle?" "It's feasible." " If that was the case..." " Cindy Benson was murdered twice." "Coronary embolism?" "So, it wasn't a normal post-operative complication." "It's a novel interpretation." "Though not one that would withstand scrutiny." "It may have been an accident, but I'd like to know how she died." "Maybe you missed it, Inspector, but her husband stabbed her with a carving knife." " You're redeveloping?" " Yes." "The new hospital will have twice the number of beds." "Fantastic. (To lose twice as many patients.)" " Er, are you a doctor?" " Yes." "Dr. Hill is a clinical psychologist." "I'm a Detective Chief Inspector and this is a murder investigation." "Straight answers to our questions really would save us a great deal of time." "In my line of work, Doctor, patients die." "In my line of work, Doctor, patients kill, and right now, someone on your staff should be a patient of mine." "How many postmortems does your hospital do each week?" "Postmortems are expensive, time-consuming and redundant." "What, so none, in other words?" "They upset the next of kin" " and tell us nothing we didn't know already." " I see." "I'd like postmortems conducted on every patient you've lost in the last week." " Please?" " This is out of the question!" "Cindy Benson may have died in a freak accident or she may been murdered." "Either way, we won't know unless we find more victims." "Now, that might upset the next of kin, but they and we need to know." "If I'm wrong, I'll apologise." "Well, you are wrong." "And an apology won't cover it." "God almighty, Tony." "What have you got me into?" "Hang on." "You're the one who got me into this." "Why did you ask for postmortems?" "Cos he didn't want me to and he was pissing me off." "He's a busy man." "All those blue prints on his waiting." "Are you sure about these meds for Mr. Andrews?" "Yes." "Yes, of course I am." "Have the bodies checked for sexual interference." "You're talking about necrophilia." "Cindy Benson wasn't even dead." "Must have someone hurry things along." "If you get off on corpses, a hospital's the perfect place to work." "Especially one where no-one asks questions." "Tony, try and not get so involved." "OK?" "Cindy Benson is dead." "And I helped put her husband in prison." "Now her children are as good as orphans." "It's a bit late to tell me not to get involved, Carol." "12-hour days for no thanks." "And shit money." "The police are saying someone killed that stabbing victim here." "Bloody cheek." "Clinical psychology isn't confined to the clinic." "It's in every aspect of our lives, in art, religion, history." " Name a work of art." " Star Wars." "OK, Star Wars." "And what principals of psychology does Star Wars illustrate?" "We all have a dark and a light side?" "And what motivates the dark side?" "Power." "To control." "To manipulate." "Inadequate personalities crave power." "Over the media." "The police." "The opposite sex." " Life, death..." " Doctor Hill?" "You don't have to be here for this, you know." "Try not to get them excited." "They're not supposed to enjoy themselves." " I just wanted to check you were coming." " Absolutely." "Coming to what?" "The Vice-Chancellor's reception this evening." "It'd be a good idea if you were seen." "I can be seen here, you know, teaching." "Why doesn't the Vice-Chancellor come and sit in?" "That's the spirit, Tony!" "Do you have the number for the job centre?" " Look, it's networking, that's all." " Oh, yeah." "Course." "I'll pick the Vice-Chancellor's metaphorical nits as a tribute to her dominant status and primate group." "Tony, it's up to you." "Stay at home if you like." "Work on your CV." " Tony Hill." " You were wrong," " about the necrophilia." " Oh." "Good." "Unfortunately, you were right about everything else." "Look, I know you've got problems there, but" "I've got a murder on the wards Bradfield Hospital and I really need you down here." "Give me five minutes." "There were five patients in the hospital mortuary." "Three of them died of an embolism." " Artificially induced?" " I believe so." "Except this man doesn't have that bruise." " So, what caused this?" " An IV drip." "An ICU patient can have five or six tubes going into them." "An air bubble in the IV." "He or she's an opportunist..." "they'll consider any means available." "Any victim available." "Good chance they had medical training." "We're looking for links in their histories, but..." "It's different ages, races, sexes." "This person's not targeting one particular type, not young women, nor their mothers, this is..." ".., this is rage against the world." "A world that's betrayed me, belittled me, wronged me." "This might have been going on for years." "We've caught all the Hospital mortality rate, if we can pinpoint when it started, we might be able to get a handle on the number of victims." " What then?" "Exhumations?" " We don't need more proof." "We need leads." "Rage and envy." "Someone envied them their lives, their joy  their hope." "That it's?" "That's his surveillance footage?" "I thought the private sector was be able founded." "It's in development." "Half of the cameras don't work yet." " We've got coverage of the foyer." " Who has access to ICU?" "Just about all of Bradfield." "It's a 12-acre site, 32 fire exits, eight ground floor entrances and 10 blokes covering the lot of 'em." "You've had four murders in the last week." "There must be some way to control access." "There isn't." "It's not possible." "Not yet." "Not till we get the new system on line." "There's patients, visitors, relatives in and out." "Look." "You know that I know what we SHOULD be doing... it's just that I haven't got a hope of doing it." "I can't ask Willerton for more staff." " He's laid off half of us." " Luckily, I have more resources." "This week's rota." "If you want any further back, ask admin." "Who else would have had access to the unit when Cindy was here?" "It's OK, Ruth, you get on." "Nathan Morgan." "I was Mrs. Benson's anaesthetist." " You attended to her in here?" " Me and all the surgery team." "I'm gonna need their details, please." "Sure." "Course." "Come with me." "Of course we've got IDs." "We don't wear them." "Everyone knows me." "I'm Rita." "Yeah, I'm sure." "Well, wear them anyway, please." "Tony?" "You will let the girls know when they can have the bed back?" " How many nurses work here?" " Three, for six beds." "We're a bit short-staffed." "It's a budget thing." "You guys sure about this?" "It's too awful to think about." " We won't be long." "Thank you." " Sure." " I don't think there'll be any forensics." " No." "The bodies are moved as soon as they're found." "The crime scene's washed down." "It's the perfect place, undermanned, stressed out." "No-one will see you as long as you're quick." "But it's definitely a staff member?" "Tony?" "You said they were medically trained?" "Could be anyone in Hospital." "It's someone so familiar, these people don't even see them." "The invisible man." "Choosing the most vulnerable and least able to resist." "Is it because they're easy victims or something else?" "Six weeks ago, the death rate rose from one a week to three." "So, look for the trigger six weeks ago." "What sort of trigger?" "Someone lost their home, their lover, their job?" "Oh, come on!" "We'll need a lot more than that." "People are always losing jobs." "Especially psychology lecturers who moonlight for the police." "Watch for anyone trying to insinuate themselves into the investigation." "Pretending to help or just curious." "They'll want to monitor it, control it." "As the MO evolves, look for the signature." "Yeah." "Like this one." "This signature doesn't appear anywhere else on the charts." "He signed off on the murder." "It's illegible." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Chief Inspector Jordan." "I understood you'd make discreet enquiries." "Instead, you've brought in a squadron of policemen, and we're being pestered by reporters talking about... the biggest medical scandal since Harold Shipman." "We'll soon be a flagship hospital." "This will damage our reputation." "Well, your reputation will have to take a back seat." "Six weeks ago, you were losing one patient a week." " Now you're losing three." " It's a statistical blip." "Oh." "Our pathologist found three more statistical blips who died in the same way." "We save dozens of lives every week." "Bradfield is one of the most efficient and successful hospitals in the country." "You've been laying people off." "There's been rationalisation, yes." "Six weeks ago, you fired someone." "Six weeks ago we signed a contract to redevelop the site, creating 150 new jobs." "We are here to save lives... to usher in a brighter future for this city." "What exactly do YOU hope to achieve?" "He's such a sweetie!" " He's put someone's back up." " He'd put anyone's back up." "Maybe it's not rage against the world." "Dominant male." "Oh, yeah." "I should be picking nits." " Picking what?" " I'll explain later." "June, get hold of permanent secretary Peter O'Brien." "Do you have a number for him?" "Look it up." "You know Tony Hill, one of our most gifted lecturers." "Ah, yes." "Dr. Hill." "I've heard a lot about your work." "Really?" "Kate said you hadn't." "I haven't seen you at one of these before." "I've usually had better things to get on with." "What Tony means he's usually locked in his office." "Which is probably just as well." "I see." "What?" "Actually, there's someone I need to er..." "Is this another Harold Shipman?" "Carol Jordan." "Carol, I've just had the Departament of Health on the phone." "Your Mr. Willerton has some powerful friends." "Yes, sir." "Sorry." "I think I may be ruffling a few feathers." "You ruffle all the feathers you have to." "And if Willerton and his pals aren't happy," " you tell them they can call me." " Right, sir." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "Good luck." "It'll be quick." "Easy." "Relax." "Just relax." "There now." "All better." " Dr. Hill?" " What on earth...?" "Sorry." "I was just..." "Sorry." "It's a lovely party, by the way." "Ruth, I'm feeling like crap." "I'm going home." "James can cover for me." "What have we got on the staff at the ICU?" "Nathan Morgan, anaesthetist." "Says he's Australian." "Turns out he's South African." "What?" "So he faked his papers?" "Well, he had to." "He'd been suspended after four of his patients died." "How do you fancy Cape Town, Mr. Morgan?" "You were right about the signature." "We found it on all the notes." "It's not about revenge." "It started out as that." "Something in their vulnerability moved him." "He sought vengeance and found fulfilment." "He's found his vocation." "It's an act of mercy." "He wants to ease their pain." "Like an anaesthetist." "We've just arrested Morgan." "These are a copy of Cindy Benson's post-op notes." "The ICU nurse says they've been tampered with." " That your signature?" " No." "Why did you leave South Africa?" " You tell me." " I don't know." "You lost some patients?" "The hospital lost them." "I didn't." "You reused disposable equipment that should have been destroyed and billed them for replacements." "Lies." "None of that was ever proved." "Four people have been murdered at Bradfield Cross." "Yeah." "None by faulty equipment." "All of them your patients." " And Willerton's." " Are you accusing him?" "The man's incompetent, he takes on procedures beyond his ability and shouts at us when he screws up." "Does Willerton blame you for his mistakes?" " I think that's why he hired me." " Has he threatened to fire you?" "Patients who died in ICU would be recorded as Willerton's failures." " If he quit, your job would be safe." " That's not a motive, Carol." "No-one would know you faked your papers to hide your past." " Sounds like a motive to me." " I swear to God, I never hurt anyone." "Yes, I lied about my background." "But I am a qualified anaesthetist." "I've been practising for 15 years." "I've saved hundreds of lives." "Just get me a solicitor." "Carol, it's not him." "Oh." "I thought you were my husband." "Tony, I am not here to debate clinical theory," "I'm here to stop a killer." "You said this was about easing pain." "That's more like vocation." "You said that the killer was medically qualified." "I SAID they had medical training." "They didn't qualify as a nurse or a doctor." "They're too dysfunctional." "They can't succeed at anything." "And every failure reinforces their inadequacy." " Morgan had already signed the notes." " So what?" ""I'm not signing the notes on the bottom line for a sick joke." "I want the last word." ""You won't let me be a doctor?" ""I'll prove to you I can heal." "I CAN help." ""People want my help." "People who can't help themselves."" "Morgan had opportunity, motive, expertise." "He even has form." "Cheap scam to line his pockets." ""I'm doing this because it's my vocation." ""Because it's the only thing I'm good at." ""And none of you will stop me." ""They're my people and they need me."" "Yeah, but there haven't been any more murders since we moved in." "How do you know?" "Maybe you're looking in the wrong place." ""You don't want me here, I'll go elsewhere." ""Wherever I can carry out my work." ""Wherever the sick and vulnerable need me."" "Sick and vulnerable." "Nursing homes?" "Hospices." "Bradfield has one hospice." "No." "You're not supposed to." "Control Room to DCI Jordan." "Control Room to DCI Jordan." "Reports coming in regarding Bradfield Hospice." "Female patient aged 44 years, terminal cancer." "Pronounced dead at 18:45 this evening by area locum." "Over." "Can you not touch anything, please?" "You found her like this?" " Yes." "Why..." " Can you give us a minute, please?" "If you'd wait downstairs." "Kev?" "Can you get the names of all staff and visitors who've been in here today, please?" " If they have them." " All Right." "We're going to have to watch in here, as well." "All my staff dispon'vel already busy." "It's been initialled." "Shall I see the next of kin?" " What's the rush, Don?" " It's just the smell of these places." "The smell?" " Yeah." "Cheap bleach, death." " Bleach." "Who can go anywhere here or the hospital without being seen?" "Who are the people the doctors ignore because they choose not to see them?" "Because they don't know to say or how to say?" "The cleaners?" " ID, please, sir." " I've already been asked twice." "I'm a senior anaesthetist." "I work here." "OK?" "I think you'll find you DID work in this hospital." "I'll make sure you never work in Britain again." "I've just come for my stuff." "I've a good mind to prosecute you for masquerading as a doctor." "Coming from you?" "You've got two minutes and I call Security." "You know, maybe this nutter has saved some lives." "Because people will start looking into your survival rates." "And soon you will find out that you're not second-rate surgeon, you're a third-rate property developer." " Get out of my hospital!" " Your hospital." ""Forward to a healthy future."" "Tony?" "I've got to show my face at the university." "I know it's not my best feature." "But it's what they want." "Tony, if we have a hope in hell of catching this man," " I need you with me." " Call me when he gets in touch." "What do you mean, gets in touch?" "Carol, we missed him by about 30 minutes, maybe less." "We're closing in on him." "He'll know that." "The next thing he'll try and do is declare himself." " Make some announcement." " What will they say?" "Haven't got a clue." "But whatever he says, don't believe a word of it." "Look me." "Don't tell me you'll be here tomorrow." "You said that yesterday." "Yeah." "Hey, look." "You have an A to Z." "Well, look at it next time, OK." "Just take a seat, please." "No, no, no, no." "I tell you what." "Next time you... hey." "Hey!" "You supplied cleaners to Bradfield Cross Hospital, Mr...?" "Philomon." "And we supply skilled hygiene operatives." "Yeah, whatever you call them." "Was one there this morning, late-20s, possibly North African?" "Look, we supply hundreds of staff, OK?" "Great, so let's start going through your records, see who was there this morning." "Look, these are confidential records, all right?" "We're looking for a murderer." "Look, all our staff are thoroughly vetted." "Great." "I'm sure they are." "Do I need to get a warrant?" "I'd love to help you, love, OK, but sorry, busy now." "Ahmed!" "Could you put that down a moment, please?" "We've been speaking to your colleagues." "They tell us you clean at St Paul's Hospice, as well." "All units, all units!" "Suspect leaving hospital on foot." " Salaam." " Meena?" "It's Don Merrick." "Mr. Merrick." "Hello." "How's business?" "You got Tesco's on the run yet?" "Someday, maybe." "Meena, I need to ask a favour." "We're looking for a man, late 20s, possibly North African or maybe Turkish." "He was a cleaner at Bradfield Cross" " until quite recently." " Sorry, no." "I know nothing." "Well, I wondered if you'd heard anything in the shop," " in the neighbourhood?" " No." "I..." "I..." "I've heard nothing." "Well, if you do hear something, you call me, OK?" "You've got my number, yeah?" "I have a customer." "I must go." "OK." "Thanks, Meena." "Tony?" "What the hell happened at the reception?" "Someone say you were playing with yourself in the vice chancellor's bedroom?" " I wasn't pla..." " You were to make an impression." "Obviously, I succeeded!" "They're creating a new post." "It'll replace two existing ones." "Right." "And one of them's mine." "They'll be seeing external candidates, but you've got as good a chance as them." "Better." "Really?" "Were they playing with themselves in the vice chancellor's bedroom?" "Tony." "You know, I'm glad you're focusing on your career and moving on from your grief." "It's just..." "I carried you a long way, Kate." "And now you want me to carry you?" "I have been, Tony." "But I can't carry you through the interview." "Your interpersonal skills lack a certain something." "So, what do you recommend?" "After yesterday?" "Prayer." "Prayer." "Why did you leave them like that?" "Did you leave them all like that?" "At rest, in peace, in prayer." "Lord, have mercy." ""Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray to Go..."" "Are they praying?" "What are they praying for?" "What are you praying for?" "You pray to talk to God, you pray for God's mercy." "You can pray to angels and saints." "Angels." "Messengers of God." "Instruments of God." "God is a jealous God, God is an angry God." "Angels of mercy  angels of death..." "Are you making angels of death?" "Are YOU the angel of death?" "Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." " I'd like to read this." " This is it?" "You supply hundreds of cleaners and these are your records?" "Er, skilled hygiene operators." "Look, some of our employees have trouble with forms." "By the looks of things, mate, so do you." "Look." "I try to keep overheads down, OK?" "Nobody else wants the shitty jobs." "I want a list of cleaners working at the hospice last night." "Right." "Look, I don't have one." "Look..." "Look." "OK." "The truth is..." "I subcontract the work myself, all right?" "I call up a guy, he brings me workers, OK?" "All thoroughly vetted." "Yeah." "Yeah, of course." "Yeah." "Well er, he vets them." "Yeah." "Details, please." "Where does he live?" "We checked out the address and where the phone line is registered to," " and it's just a letter drop." " It's a scam, isn't it?" "They're billing the hospital for VAT, national insurance... whatever they think of... as if they're legit, and then they get Turks or Moroccans, or whoever, and they pay 'em cash in hand." "You look like shit." "I was up all night thinking about this." " Got anything?" " Only a link between the victims, which is pretty obvious." "They were Christian..." "nominally, anyway." "80% of the patients Christian, 100% of the victims." "So, are we looking for a failed doctor or a religious fanatic?" "Both." "We'll know more when they contact us." "So, come on, then." "This man we're looking for." "North African, Algerian, maybe." "So, he's probably a Muslim." " Oh, shit." " No, no, no, no." "Look..." "It's just a line of thought, OK?" "It's bad enough without us getting hysterical about fatwahs and jihad." "Chief." "Brandon's office." "He wants you in a conference." "Dr. Hill." "Thank you for coming." "Chief Inspector Jordan, you know Mr. Willerton." " Of course." " Quite a view you have here, John." " Monarch of all you survey." " If only." "Peter O'Brien, permanent undersecretary of the DHS." "Chief Inspector." "And James Harrison, Home Office." " Is this about Bradfield Cross?" " It's about a tape that was received by Mr. Willerton this morning." "Praise be to God, who revealed the book." "The sins of the West are a declaration of war on God, his messenger and all Muslims." "We shall be avenged." "You cannot hide in your hospitals." "Your sick and your poor will suffer the wrath of God and we will strike and strike again until the Crusaders and Zionists learn the meaning of justice." "There is no God, but God, and Muhammad is his prophet." "We're analysing the original." "I'd like to see the envelope that came in." " Our people are looking at that." " I'm sorry." "Your people?" " We deal with domestic terrorism." " MI5." "Of course." "He's a Christian himself." "This is his crusade." " I'm sorry?" " Sorry." "I told DCI Jordan we could expect this." "Diversion tactics." "Misleading communication." "But this is genius." "Sorry, you're a...psychologist?" "Dr. Hill's insight is valuable." "But you're not an expert on Islamic extremism." "It has nothing to do with Islam." "That's de all pont." "Look." "The man we want was raised as a Christian." "But not just in name." "He had a strict religious upbringing." "Many young fanatics are from good homes." "He's not a young fanatic." "He's probably nearing middle age, an underachiever." "But he's intelligent, manipulative." "He does seem to be manipulating you." "The terminology of lunguistic is consistent with Islamic fundamentalist tracts." "So what?" "Anyone can find these on the Internet and copy phrases." "Frightening to think they are among us, but we have to face it." "No...no." "To understand a killer, you have to examine their early crimes." "I was killing on the quiet, until DCI Jordan found out." "She forced me into the open." "A damn good job she did, too." "Now she's on to me, I need to set up a smokescreen." "I need to push a button that'll get the authorities running round." "Like headless chicken." "What's the biggest button of all?" "Terrorists don't kill on the quiet!" "It defeats the whole object." "Stick to psychology, Dr. Hill." "Leave terrorism to the experts." "For God's sake, listen to me." "Tony." "Why didn't you bring this tape to us?" "Because you're clearly out of your depth." "You're not publicising this?" "A frightened public is a vigilant public." "This is insane." "You could provoke real Islamic terrorists to join in." "Listen." "The public are already hysterical." "If you releasing this WILL make things worse." "It'll stir up racial tension." "You really prepair to accept the responsibility for the riots?" "I am sure we can rely on our superb policemen... and women, to safeguard the citizens of Bradfield." "We gave a transcript to the press 20 minutes ago." "Of course, you'll have a copy." "And I'd like to stick around, if I may." "To offer MY insight and expertise." "We're not exactly blessed with office space." "That's all right." "I'll squat in some broom cupboard." "John has a great deal to offer in terms of... co-ordination and PR." "Yes." "Yes, of course." "Any contribution you can make will be sincerely appreciated." "Dr. Hill." "Thank you for your input." "Carol." "Who are these people?" "Willerton's piloting his flagship hospital for the government." "It all involves lots of egos and money." "My murder investigation would screw things up." "So, he calls in a pal from the government." "O'Brien?" "They probably did their MBAs together." "It's the old school tie and polo shirts." " And O'Brien calls in a pal from MI5." " Harrison." "Because, if MI5 take over, they can shut us down when they like." "So, why haven't they?" "Because Brandon won't let them." "But now Harrison's here, we haven't got much time." "See, that's why you're a DCI and" "I'm a soon-to-be-unemployed lecturer." "It's the usual political bullshit, Tony." "Just hold your nose and swim." "I could do with some swimming lessons." "So, what are you going to do, Carol?" "Are you going to listen to them or listen to me?" "I'm going to try and keep my job." "I suggest you do the same." "Go back to the University and keep your head down, OK?" "Yeah." "Right." "Good luck." "HOSPITAL FATWAH OUTRAGE" "Wanker." "How did you get in here?" "I'm working with the police." "Of course." "You can go anywhere." "Can't you?" "I'm not a suspect, am I?" "I'm 77 years old." "I can barely make it to the lift, never mind flit about the place." " What were you doing?" " Giving the last rites." "He wanted it." "His family didn't." "All that mumbo-jumbo scares them." "There was a time when hell scared them more." " Was that a good thing?" " You're not a believer." "Who is these days?" "20 years ago, they'd call you in cos they'd nothing to lose." "Now they won't even allow you that courtesy." "Maybe they can't believe in a god that permits such suffering." "God loves even those who turn their back on him." "His love is infinitive." "His mercy is infinitive." "I thought he was an angry god?" "Aye, well..." "Every father gets angry." "It doesn't he doesn't love his children." "Are we talking about a father, or Our Father?" "Anyway..." "There's a few of the living that still need me." "Our Father." "Your father." " Keys to the car?" " I haven't got any." "Take your hands off." "He invented this sub contractor to charge VAT to the hospital twice." "Bills 'em for both sets of costs, then trousers the lot." "Have you seen the size of that Rolex?" "Guv." "Couldn't you find a broom cupboard with a view?" "I hear you've made an arrest." "May I?" "Of course." "Yeah." "Philomon." "The man who provided the hospital cleaning staff." "I'd like to sit in on the interview." " I can manage, thanks." " Just to observe." "There's an observation room." "You can sit in there." "Perfect." "John?" "Looks like Don's ahead in the DI sweepstakes." "Piss off, Paula." "You're up for fraud, obtaining money by deception, forgery and God knows what." "We're not interested in those." " We want the name of that cleaner." " Oh, God." "Look." "It has nothing to do with me, OK?" "This...this fatwah." "I'll swear on anything..." "anything you like." "We need to know which of your staff was at the hospital on these days." "It's cash in hand." "I don't keep records." "Oh, come on!" "You've got regulars." " I wouldn't call them regular." " Names, Mr. Philomon." "I don't know any names, OK?" "I don't even know if they use their real names." "CID." "Sergeant Merrick's phone." "Is Sergeant Merrick there?" "Not right now." "Who's calling?" "Could you tell him Meena Najar phoned, please?" "Can I ask what it's about?" "Tell him it's urgent." "He must meet me in the park." "The same place as last time." "And where's that, exactly?" "Tell him four o'clock." "Tell him he must come." "Ah, yeah." "Er, I just got a call." "I wonder if you could track a number for me." "Look." "These people, they are fanatics, OK?" "If I talk to you, they string me up and slit my throat." "Will you protect me?" "Give me his name." "I want a solicitor." "Mr. James Harrison entered the room..." "Mr. Philomon." "Can I call you Phil?" "Listen Phil." "This is rather important." "We don't have time to haggle." "Give us a name and maybe you won't get 20 years for kiddie-fiddling." " You can't do that." " Yes, I can, Phil, because I'm not a plod." "One phone call and I can have you flown back to Turkey or whatever goat-shagger's hole you come from and thrown out of a plane at 20,000 feet." "Give us a name." "Hassan." "The guy you're looking is named Hassan." "There." "That wasn't so hard, was it?" "Hello, Ange." "There's been an explosion at the hospital." "I'm really sorry." "Are you sure you're OK with this?" "A woman was killed in the explosion." "Her name was Rita." "She ran a florist's shop in the foyer." "DCI Jordan." "Someone set off an oxygen leak and splashed ether round the place." "Victim came in, turned the light on... bang." " Ether?" " Brought in from outside." "It's not used in British hospitals any more." "But they still use it in Africa, places like that." "Excuse me." "It's not our man." "It's not his style." "This is too big." "It's...it's too spectacular." "It's too impersonal." "Well, maybe that fatwah WAS genuine." "It wasn't genuine!" "I said this would happen if you publicised the tape." "I told him." "Some bloody fanatic believed it and had to join in." "He played silly little power games and now somebody else is dead!" "Are you happy now?" "!" "Will you leave it?" "Just leave it." "We can't take Harrison on, OK?" " You can't, I can." " Tony!" "Choose your battles." "I know you're angry." "So am I. But get a grip, will you?" "I need you." "What for?" "Decoration?" "Yeah." "And the entertainment value." "I don't need a reason, Tony, I just need you." "I'm sorry." "I shouldn't have let her go there." "With all this going on, I should have gone." "It's not your fault." "It's not your fault." "She was my mum." "She was just there." "Always." "You know...never a harsh word." "You're nothing to these bastards." "Nothing." "Well, it looks like the same people." "They're stepping up their campaign." "It's far too early to say that." "This attack was completely different from the others." "Chief Ispector, your loyalty to Dr. Hill is touching, don't let it cloud your judgment." " Dr. Hill's an establi..." " That's not what his employers think." "I understand he's on the way out." "Gentlemen, Carol." "Sorry to have kept you waiting." "As you know, I'm have a press conference, so keep this brief." "We have the name of a suspect, working at the hospital when the murders took place." " The dsame man who set off the explosions." " That remains to be seen." "So, when ARE you going to make an arrest?" "Within the next 24 hours." "You have no idea who you did with." "This peoples operate under normal police radar." "I have to recommend that MI5 take over this investigation." "But my officers have local expertise, contacts with the community." "I'm not interesting playing politics." "The press briefing is an opportunity to announce the handover." "It's important we appear united in front the media." "It's important that we let DCI Jordan do her job." "If she tells me she will make an arrest within 24 hours," "I am satisfied." "With respect, Mr. Brandon, it being good enough for you is not the point." "I think announcing MI5 involvement shows decisiveness and resolve." "You'd retain operational responsibility." "Peter, I disagree." "It would show weakness and disunity to suggest that the police cannot keep the public safe." "I will make no announcement." "And, if that's not good enough for you, then... it's beside the point." "Now, if you'll excuse me." "Sir?" "The only thing that'll keep Harrison off our backs is results." "Sir?" "John?" "John?" "Can you get an ambulance?" "He's having a heart attack." "Carol." "How are you feeling, sir?" "You don't have to call me sir when I'm in bed." "How do I look?" "You'll be fine." "Did you have to bring me here?" "We had to get you to a specialist unit." "We'll move you as soon as you're better and don't worry, wekeep someone on the door all times." "You just try and get well." "You're looking after me." "Who's looking after you?" "Watch out for Harrison." "We'll find the killer." "I expect nothing less." "Got to get you ready for your operation, John, OK?" "See?" "Nobody calls me sir, except you." "Er, Sergeant Merrick is tied up and he asked me to come by." "I don't like talking in the shop." "He should have told you." "Yeah, I'm sorry." "There wasn't time to arrange anything more discreet." "You er..." "You said you could help." "My brother." "He came here for work three months ago." "But all he talks about is fighting for God and punishing the infidels." "Your brother?" "What's his name?" "Look." "I promise no-one will know." "Hassan." "His name is Hassan." "And he works as a cleaner in the hospital?" "Yes." "He stayed with me first." "But now he has a room in his own flat." "Near here." "He's a good man." "He didn't kill these people at the hospital." "He's so angry now." "He's angry with everyone." "I want it to stop." "It must be stopped." "We need an address." "Christian." "Hitting middle age." "Failure in business." "Probably living or working with close relatives." " Tony..." " He sends them to his heavenly father." "HIS father was religious." "Some sort of evangelical healer." "There's resentment, envy." "He wants to excel him." "He lays on hands in the same way his father laid hands on him." "In part he sees Willerton as his father." "Tony, we need to find this man Hassan." "The bomber." "No!" "It's not him we're looking for." " Not the man who killed these people." " Yeah, maybe, we have to catch him to prove that." "We've less than 24 hours and no idea where to start." "24 Green Dragon Mansions." "An Egerton Housing Association flat." "Well, Don's not the only one with contacts." "Armed police!" "Clear." "Room clear." "God Almighty!" ""Look at me, see what I'm part of."" ""I'm a hero, martyr."" "Neither of the guys fit the description of Hassan." " Cheer up." " Oh, why, exactly?" "Because he's in the crowd, watching." "Wind him up." "Look happy." "Congratulate yourself." "You got evidence, then he'll show himself." "That's a result, everyone." "Well done." "Oh, right." "Look at this lot." "We're bound to nail him!" "Those two old fellows couldn't stop shouting their mouths off." "Hassan's 30ft in front of you, left, black jacket, green hooded top." "Get that?" "Black jacket, green hooded top." "Go." "Death to the Crusaders, death to the Zionists." "I'm a martyr!" "He was seen near by the oxygen store room an hour before the explosion." "We're checking his clothes for traces of ether." "He's a good fit for the bombing." "Yeah." "Especially as he was shouting that he did it." "Sadly that's not admissible." "The person we're after won't confess." "That's the whole point." "They'll want to go on manipulating it." "Because they have to prove they're smarter than you." " They'll want to carry on their work." " OK, fine." "So, it wasn't Hassan." "So, if he knows nothing, we eliminate him." "Eliminating people is our job, Chief Inspector." "Dr. Hill." "I'm impressed." "You may join Dr. Hill in the observation room." "I don't think so." "But you can." "This is still my investigation." "It's a shame about Mr. Brandon, isn't it?" "Maybe you'd like more time off to visit him... or you can sit in on MY interview." "It's your choice." "Meena?" "Your sons are drug addicts and sodomites." "You worship money and power and you spit in the face of God." "That's a speech, Carol,not a confession." "And how will you cure this diseased society?" "With blood." "I made the explosion at the hospital with oxygen and ether." "And the other patients?" " I killed them." " Which of them?" "All of them." "None of you is safe from the wrath of God." "Ask him to prove it." "We'll need names." "Unbelievers have no names." "Look." "You want us to believe you killed those patients?" "You want to be a martyr and go to heaven with seven virgins?" "You'll have to prove it." "Why sign the notes after killing them with the gas bottle?" "Was that some sort of sick joke?" "I signed the notes because I am proud of what I did." "I'm a soldier." "I give myself for God and my people." "I think we've heard enough, don't you?" "Congratulations." "Now charge him." "What do you think you're doing?" "Just help things on." "By giving him facts that would have confirmed his guilt?" "We don't need to confirm his guilt." "He's confessed." "Thanks to your incisive questioning." "He confess becaus he wants the glory." "The person does kill those patience would want to string this out." "The only person stringing this out is you, for reasons that do not understand." "You'd really pin this on Hassan, so Willerton can get his hospital and the killer can go on murdering patiences?" "This crisis is now over." "And I'm withdrawing all police officers from Bradfield Cross." "You what?" " You can't do that." " That including you, Chief Inspector." "I can go in as a private citizen." "Go anywhere near the Hospital and you will BE a private citizen." "And when the real killer strikes again?" "We can rely on Bradfield's police to safeguard its citizens." "I haven't got time for this." "Thank Dr. Hill for his er...efforts." "And tell him his services are no longer required." "Tony?" "I need to be at a job interview." "I'm sure as hell not needed here." "Any calls for me?" " No." "Sorry, mate." " Because Meena said she spoke to someone and then you turned up." " That's not what happened." " Have you seen the state of her, you stupid little prick?" "!" "Have you any idea what you've done?" "You'd screw anyone for a promotion!" "Don!" "What the hell is your problem?" "Control to all personnel at Bradfield Cross Hospital." "Please return to rostered duties." "Repeat." "Please return to rostered duties with immediate effect." "Oh, sod this." "Your work with the police." "Would you see that continuing?" "My experience with them enhanced my academic work." "And vice versa." "And what qualities could you bring to this new post?" "The same ones I brought to my current post." "I can teach, if that counts for anything." "I can communicate, read motives from actions." "I don't mean normal people." "I mean arsonists... serial rapists, child molesters." "And what about your weaknesses?" "That IS my weakness." "Oh, I'm not good at dinner parties." "Psychopaths don't make great referees on a job application." " Quite." " I can help sick people." "If I'm lucky, prevent suffering." "And do you envisage a strategy for the department?" "Or do you see yourself as a foot soldier?" "Dr. Hill?" "Dr. Hill." " But, Dr. Hill, we haven't quite..." " Dr. Hill!" "Dr. Hill!" "I heard you nailed that bastard." "Congratulations." "Too late for her though, wasn't it?" "Rita?" "Yeah." "And she was just about to retire." "Willerton pulled the lease." " He's putting a whole new arcade..." " Yeah, yeah, thanks." "Hi, this is DCI Carol Jordan." "Leave a message after the tone." "Shit!" "Haven't you people been told to stay away?" "I'm visiting a friend." "Well, he's not seeing any visitors at the moment." "Won't be a minute." " Step away from the bed, please." " It's just a few irises." "Step away from the bed." "There's an air bubble in the IV!" "Dr. Hill!" "Colin?" "Come on, Colin." "This isn't what you do." "Don't be scared." "We know you heal people." "Drop that, all right." "I never murdered anyone." "I let God heal them." "I released them from this valley of tears." "I sent them back to the Heavenly Father." "He loves them." " I sent them home." " Was your father a priest?" "An evangelist." "We used to travel the country." "Healing people." "He laid his hands on them." "God did the healing." "Did he lay hands on you?" "He said I was sinful... damned." "I'd never succeed at anything." "You proved him wrong." "We'll never know how many he killed, will we?" "One of Don's contacts called and you didn't pass on a message." "You compromised an informant." " Yeah, I was trying to..." " Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I know what you were trying to do." "Anything for a result." "You'd make a fine senior officer." "Kev?" "Just watch yourself." "Oh, William." "All done?" "No, they need a witness statement." "God knows why." "Your friend James Harrison did an outstanding job." "Now we can put this fiasco behind us and move on." "Moving on?" "Yes." "Excellent idea." "Thought about what you might want to do next?" "Well, I'd like to see the flagship..." "I don't think that makes best use of your abilities." "You might want to consider committee work." " Peter..." " I'm sure you'll come to the right decision." "You..." "All right?" "Even by your standards, running out of an interview was unconventional." "Yes." "Sorry" "I did come back, but they'd all gone home." "I explained it was an aspect of your unorthodox approach." "I think they secretly impressed." "Yeah." "Especially when I told them where you'd run off to." "Sorry, you know Carol don't you, Kate?" "Yeah, we spoke yesterday." "You spoke?" "I told the panel about your vital contribution to our work, and how much credit that reflects on the university." "I think you'll be staying on." "Obviously I can't say anything on the record, but I'd say the post was yours." "Provided you remember who you're supposed to be working for." "I'll catch you later." "You gave me a character reference." "Well, we can't have nutters like you roaming the streets." "Didn't you want the job, didn't you?" "I'd rather it went to someone competent." "When I started out, I didn't want to study damaged minds." "I was like him..." "I wanted to heal." "I still want it." "I can't do it." "You know... far better than healing hurt is preventing hurt ever happening." "That's what you do." "Can you try and remember that?" "ITFC Subtitles ANDREW LANE ITFC Subtitles TIM CASHMORE"
