"In the criminal justice system the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups - the police, who investigate crime and the Crown prosecutors who prosecute the offenders." "These are their stories." "It's Art Deco." "We got it in Barcelona on our first anniversary." "No point hanging it in the cottage if we never spend any time there." "Yeah, the clerk said you were coming home early." "Sent a package from the court for your wife." "Last-minute conference." "She can't let them down." "She was looking forward to a nice break too." "This can wait." "She'll need help with the bags." "(MUTED BANG) What was that?" "(TYRES SCREECH)" "That's your car!" "Rachel!" "Call an ambulance!" "Victim:" "Rachel Callaghan, age 54." "A High Court judge." "Thank you." "She lived here for seven years with her husband Dan who's gone to hospital with her." "Right, Pete, what you got?" "She fell here." "Took two shots." "A stray bullet hit the far wall." "Looks like a.38." "All this for a car?" "Car details have been circulated to all units and we've got uniform checking the nearby CCTV for a possible photo."

"Get onto them, tell them to activate it." "Erm...do either of you smoke?" "No, sir." "God, she'd kill me if I started again." "Did you notice anyone acting suspiciously when you got out of the car?" "No, no one." "And your wife was driving, yeah?" "No, I was, but we had this mirror and Rachel suggested that I take it in while she parked the car." "Where were you travelling from, sir?" "Lavenham in Suffolk." "We've got a cottage there." "We came back early..." "Don't expect this kind of thing to happen on your doorstep." "No." "No, sir." "Mr Callaghan, your wife came through surgery." "Is she gonna be OK?" "We won't be able to get a clear idea of a prognosis until she stabilises." "She is still unconscious." "Mr Callagahan, we..." "Dad!" "Oh, Linds!" "How's Mum?" "What happened?" "She's gonna be all right, Linds." "Do you want to come this way?" "The signal from the tracking device stopped here." "Where's the car?" "Good question." "Your trace led here?" "Where he dismantled this." "What time did you get here?" "16:23." "I made a note of it." "Very good." "Make sure you get hold of the camera footage, yeah?" "I reckon maybe he's changed the plates." "Nothing gets past me, sir." "Well, nothing gets past PC Griffin." "Except maybe a stolen Merc." "There it is." "Timecode: 16:22." "That's the Merc going along Heathfielld Road." "And that's Sherlock going the other way." "There are two men in this car." "He had help." "He must have met his sidekick at the warehouse." "Can't see those faces though." "We took a close-up of the plates and ran them through PNC." "They're cloned." "We can't have women gunned down on their doorstep because of a car."

"A brand-new Mercedes Benz, market price 56 grand, and you get it for eight?" "!" "Come on, Nick." "When did you buy it?" "Yesterday." "Who did you buy it from?" "I don't know his name." "What did he look like?" "All these people are on file with the Stolen Vehicle Squad." "You don't want to mess these people about." "And don't mess with us either, Nick!" "A High Court Judge has been shot for this car." "Exactly, so what'll they do to me?" "At this rate, you might be safe and sound behind bars." "She's paralysed." "She might die." "And you've been driving around in her stolen car." "It's not looking good for you, Nick." "I never should have got involved." "How DID you get involved?" "I was a banker." "I got hammered in the recession, got into debt, and had to trade down my car." "I've started over as an independent financial adviser."

"I got some cash together and met this guy in a scrap yard last night in Putney." "Is he in the album?" "Just have a look, all right?" "Here we go." "No." "No." "No?" "That's him." "Did he have red paint on his face?" "No." "Thank you." "An officer will show you out." "Will I get my money back?" "I doubt it." "I was supposed to take Dannii out tonight."

"The police are after me, man!" "Really (?" ")" "Martin Flynn, I'm arresting you on suspicion of handling stolen goods." "That's him." "That's Eddie Wade." "Look, he's the one you want, not me." "So where is he, Marty?" "I don't know." "We found a gun under the floorboards of your flat." "It's in the lab right now." "If it's the same gun used to shoot the Judge, you're in trouble, son." "I didn't shoot no judge, did I?" "But you sold the car on for Eddie." "You are involved, which means you aided and abetted a potential murderer." "I knew nothing about that." "Yeah, we use guns to scare people, but that's it." "We don't shoot them." "There's no need to." "Eddie did though, Marty." "And he's not here, so unless you want to take the rap for what he did," "I suggest you tell us everything you know." "He'd already stolen the car when he asked me to help him." "He had paint on his face." "He needed me to take the car to some dealer he had lined up." "It was to be shipped abroad." "So then why is the car still in London?" "Cos I knew some City wanker was looking for a posh set of wheels." "8,000, cash in hand." "So I do the deal with him, go back to Eddie, only he kicks off." "Kicks off about what?" "It was supposed to be shipped to Africa." "I told him I got us a lot more cash for it and he said he was on to something a lot bigger that had nothing to do with the Mercedes." "And that I'd ballsed it up." "Ballsed what up?" "What bigger deal?" "I dunno." "He just told me to sit and wait for the second half of some payment." "Ten grand." "Eddie Wade was supposed to receive a total payment of ã20,000." "He'd already had half as a downpayment, was expecting the other 10,000 to be delivered to his flat today." "For the stolen car?" "No, that was a separate deal." "If it wasn't for the car, it could be someone paid him to shoot the Judge." "Well, it's a possibility." "Before he took off, Eddie gave Marty a mobile phone." "Someone was supposed to call that phone to make the rest of the payment." "Eddie's on the run." "Gone into hiding wearing ski goggles to hide the red paint." "So we've got to put out a nationwide search for Eddie the Eagle." "And organise surveillance for his flat in case he comes back for the money." "If you're right, we've got to work out who would want Judge Callaghan dead." "They were meant to be in Suffolk till the weekend." "Whoever it was knew they were coming back early." "There is one person who knew." "The husband." "No, I don't know him." "What's this about?" "OK, well what about the name Eddie or Edward Wade?" "No." "Why?" "We think someone may have hired him to shoot your wife." "Why would anyone do that?" "Because she's a high-profile judge, sir." "Who exactly knew you'd be coming home early?" "No one, except the clerk and me." "You and your wife getting on K?" "What?" "!" "We do have to ask these questions,sir." "Oh, Mike knew too, the concierge." "Maybe he set it up cos Rachel didn't tip him enough (!" ")" "It's not funny." "Bloody right it isn't!" "My wife has just been told she will never walk again because of what that bastard did and you're suggesting..." "We've been married for 34 years!" "We're not suggesting anything, sir." "We'd just like to eliminate you from our enquiries." "Mr Callaghan, I've given her a painkiller if you want to go and have a couple of minutes." "Sorry, sir, we'd like to speak to her alone." "That's him." "Are you sure?" "Mrs Callaghan, we have reason to believe that someone may have paid this man to shoot you." "Oh, that's why." "Why what?" "Well, when I got out of the car," "I expected him to get into it and just...drive away." "But he went on pointing the gun at me." "So...then I realised that he meant to kill me anway." "What time did you leave Lavenham?" "Oh, around half-past twelve." "And you got home at er..." "twenty to three?" "Dan got lost." "We were arguing, and er... he was being very...childish about my having to come back." "He insisted on taking this tacky old mirror." "If he hadn't had to get out of the car and take it inside, the stupid thing, I might not be lying here now." "And that was Mr Callaghan's idea?" "Yes." "It's eating him alive." "I told him...he wasn't to know." "We have one deleted incoming number taken from the phone Eddie Wade gave to Marty Flynn." "That call came from a pay-as-you-go mobile to Eddie Wade's phone at 11:45am the day of the shooting." "That could be the call about them coming home early." "No trace yet." "Their phone was bought with cash in Oxford Street two Saturdays ago." "The salesgirl doesn't remember the buyer so we're checking CCTV cameras." "The Callaghans left Lavenham at 12:30pm." "Mr C wasn't very happy by all accounts - he wanted them to spend more time together." "So he was feeling neglected." "What, neglected enough to want to kill her?" "You'd be surprised how resentment can fester in a marriage, Matt." "Not after listening to him." "I don't see it." "I think he might actually love her." "Why don't we go and talk to the Judge's clerk?" "Find out who knew she was on her way home." "Maybe someone else did it." "And that way, Matty's romantic ideals can remain intact." "Come on, sunshine." "It was a conference on reporting restrictions on children's cases." "Been a nightmare to arrange." "I was told it would be brought forward if Judge Callaghan could attend." "What time did you let her know?" "Just after 11:30 that Monday morning." "I felt bad." "It was her first break in over a year." "Who knew that she was going to attend the conference?" "It was a busy morning." "I confirmed her attendance that afternoon." "But none of these could have known before 11:45 that Judge Callaghan had changed her plans and was coming home early?" "No." "We're looking at the possibility that this is an attempted murder." "What?" "!" "So did the Judge mention that she was being threatened?" "A good few times." "She rules on cases with hugely emotive issues and she's on the front line." "Could we have a look at her ongoing case files?" "Listen to this." "Yeah, go on." "The Judge was building a case against a Walter Reeves." "A site manager." "He basically runs a protection racket on service companies." "He gets them the gig on new properties in exchange for the old cash in a brown envelope." "The Judge was about to ruin him." "Why did she get involved?" "One of the companies Walter Reeves has got in his pocket, called Airoclear," "They're an aircon installation company." "They do the repairs on the building the Judge lives in." "And Eddie Wade worked for Airoclear up until three years ago." "So the chances are Reeves could have known Wade." "and asked him to put the Judge out of action." "Bingo." "Reeves and Wade couldn't have known the Judge was coming back early, so who else knew?" "The concierge." "When I first got my job at the block," "I tried to change the aircon repair company." "And Walter Reeves sent a couple of heavies round to change my mind." "And did you do what he said?" "Are you still with Airoclear?" "Yes." "So you're in his pocket." "He's a nasty piece of work." "And I've got family." "I don't want to give evidence." "Evidence about what?" "Did you tell Reeves that the Judge was coming back early Monday?" "No!" "I was the one who blew the whistle on him and said he was taking backhanders." "After that, she started digging around." "Sorry, if you blew the whistle on him, then why don't you appear in the Judge's case file?" "Because she didn't want me involved, for my own protection." "Believe me, I'd love to help you put Walter Reeves away." "I've been running Airoclear for years and Walter's been a thorn in my side the whole time." "But Eddie Wade only did commercial work and Walter was strictly residential." "I don't see how their paths would have crossed." "So, Mr Smith, one second." "Eddie Wade wouldn't have done any work on Judge Callaghan's building?" "No, we got the maintenance contract seven years ago on her husband's recommendation." "Dan Callaghan?" "You know him?" "We used to do a lot of work together, before he and Eddie fell out." "(PHONE RINGS) Excuse me." "Hello?" "Dan Callaghan designed a shopping mall in Fensham Quays." "A white elephant." "Total disaster." "Eddie Wade was in charge of installing the aircon system." "And was being a right pain in the arse." "Callaghan was all over him, making sure he did the job properly." "He swears to us he's never heard of him." "Nobody forgets a lousy coworker." "No." "I'll bear that in mind." "Or the man you pay to kill your wife." "If you'd just like to come in, sir." "Take a seat, Mr Callaghan." "Thanks for coming in." "I know this must be a pretty tough time for you right now." "Look, I'm sorry about how I reacted before." "It's just the idea of someone paying to kill my wife." "It's OK, I understand." "Mr Callaghan, just a couple of questions, OK?" "Do you recognise this man?" "He's the man who shot my wife." "You showed me his photo at the hospital." "Do you know him from before then?" "No." "So you've never seen this man before?" "No." "OK." "Three years ago, you designed a shopping mall in Fensham Quays, didn't you, Mr Callaghan?" "What's that got to do with anything?" "Eddie Wade supervised the installation of the aircon system." "Eddie Wade's friends say this is a good likeness of him." "He stole a car from the site foreman." "He lost his job." "I can't place him." "Or the name?" "Eddie Wade?" "(SCOFFS) Why would I know his last name?" "Well, Mr Callaghan, according to the foreman on that job, you left instructions almost every day for this man." "Inside envelopes with 'Eddie Wade' written on them." "But that was three years ago." "Your last big commercial commission." "Yes." "Well, the workforce let me down." "Well, if a workforce had let me down," "I would remember one of the supervisors." "Yes." "Well, I'm exhausted." "Whose idea was it to unload the mirror?" "That was my wife's." "Sorry, um..." "She says it was your idea." "She also says you'd been arguing that day." "That doesn't mean I wanted her dead!" "I can't believe you're doing this." "Where were you the Saturday before you went away?" "I went shopping in Oxford Street for Rachel's birthday." "What did you get her?" "I couldn't find anything." "She's...she's very choosy." "I'm sorry." "I'm really sorry." "It's Rachel." "She's lost the use of her other kidney." "Something to do with the scan." "Some side effect." "She's getting worse." "We're sorry to hear that." "I've got to go." "She needs me." "I'm not sure she needs you anywhere near her right now, sir." "I'm arresting you on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder." "Thank you." ""My husband was with me when I learned we had to return to the city and he was with me continuously thereafter." "He had no opportunity to make a phone call and arrange the incident."" "When did you take this statement from Judge Callaghan?" "Last night, My Lady, after my client was arrested." "So my learned colleague surprises the victim with the news, then extracts this statement from her while she's in shock." "In shock because of the unfairness of the charge." "The call only lasted two minutes and was made from a mobile." "The defendant could have slipped to the bathroom..." "The call was not made from the defendant's mobile." "This is a bail hearing, not a trial." "Your job here today, Miss Phillips, is to state your objections to bail." "The Crown strongly objects to bail as the defendant will try and interfere with the witness, namely, his wife." "That's hardly likely, as she is the one giving him the alibi." "My client is willing to offer a surety of ã50,000, My Lady." "My Lady, he's a successful architect." "That's nothing to him." "Most of the Callaghans' money is tied up in trusts." "What's accessible now is earmarked for her care." "I am willing to grant bail, on certain conditions - the first being a surety of ã50,000." "Judge Mary Hall is standing by her colleague." "Who's standing by her man." "She must be reeling." "She can't accept her husband would do that to her." "According to Slimy Simon," "Dan Callaghan doesn't have access to his wife's riches." "He pretty much gave him a motive while getting him bail." "He got bail because of his wife's alibi." "Have we got anything else on him?" "Financial records?" "Has anything gone out?" "The only big withdrawal of late from his personal account is ã400." "He was in Oxford Street the day the pay-as-you-go phone was bought." "Which still hasn't been traced." "He lied about knowing Eddie Wade." "Who still can't be found." "So what the hell HAVE we got?" "Nothing." "Apart from circumstantial and the alibi of a hugely respected High Court Judge." "Who happens to be a very proud woman." "That could be why she's lying." "Are you OK, George?" "Yeah." "Why shouldn't I be?" "What part of 'continuously' don't you understand?" "He didn't go to any other room?" "No." "We were listening to the radio when my clerk rang." "And I knew that he'd be upset so I didn't tell him that we had to leave early until the programme ended at midday." "Now, the call to the man who shot me was made at 11:45." "Am I right?" "The kids will be here soon." "No..." "I don't think so." "It's not the place for them." "Really." "My mother's very tired with her treatment..." "I don't need you to speak for me, Lindsay!" "Mrs Callaghan, your husband knew the man who shot you and he lied about that." "He lied about whose idea it was to park the car." "If you were before me in court right now," "I would lose no time in dismissing your case on the grounds of weak and wholly insubstantial evidence." "Mum..." "If you prosecute my husband," "I will give evidence on his behalf." "Today is her birthday." "Why are you trying to destroy what little she has left?" "She's going through all this and Dad's not even allowed to see her." "How was their relationship, Lindsay?" "Did she talk to him like she talks to you?" "I think she's allowed to be a bit ratty under the circumstances." "Did he mind that she was a workaholic?" "Was?" "She intends to sue the hospital for causing renal failure." "You've got it wrong." "Dad adores her." "Why would he do this to her?" "To get access to her money." "Her insurance and her estate goes to my kids." "And now I have to tell them that their Gran doesn't want to see them." "Mummy!" "So we don't even have a financial motive." "No, but uniform have turned up an eyewitness." "Wendy Carey." "She lives on Mill Lane." "Where the Callaghan's cottage is." "Says she was driving past their cottage at around 11:50 that Monday." "She saw Dan Callaghan in the garden wearing running shorts." "The call to Eddie Wade was made at 11:45." "Whereas Mrs Callaghan insisted they were together inside at that time." "Mrs Carey also said she threw a small party in honour of Rachel's promotion the night before." "Dan Callaghan was drunk, introducing himself to everyone as Mr Rachel Callaghan, soon to be Lady Justice's wife." "Ouch." "Not bitter at all, then (!" ")" "He and his wife ended up arguing." "Sounds like every married couple I know." "Him being outside isn't enough." "We need motive." "Why would an ordinarily loving husband suddenly do this?" "Well, she had been promoted." "Yeah, not for the first time." "So why snap now" "What changed?" "I had to let Dan go." "I couldn't carry him any longer, not in this financial climate." "He'd lost his job here?" "He was a liability." "Didn't even have to buy him out." "He owed this firm enough." "Dan's a perfectionist, but his designs are all about him making his mark." "He wouldn't listen to the clients' needs or budgetary restraints." "His wife never said anything about him losing his job?" "She doesn't know." "She came here a few weeks back, asking to speak to him." "I had to make some excuse about him talking to a client." "He won that when he restored a Georgian House on Brick Lane, not long after he started out." "Was he married then?" "He was funding Rachel through law school." "Talk about role reversal." "Would you say Dan resented his wife?" "He wanted her to be proud of him." "She was meant to retire this year." "They'd put a deposit on a plot of land in the Lake District so they could sell their properties and Dan could build their dream home." "But then she got promoted." "The deposit for the Lake District plot was ã25,000." "Dan Callaghan got it back for ã25,000 in cash." "He must have known then he needed cash in hand to pay Eddie Wade." "He'd already lost his job." "Pinned his hopes on Rachel's retirement, their future together." "She drops a bombshell about her retirement." "He started planning her death." "(PHONE RINGS)" "Steel." "Yeah, go ahead." "Great." "Yeah, thanks for letting me know." "The call that was made to Eddie Wade - cell site analysis places the signal in Lavenham." "The phone was used within 500 metres of the Callaghans' cottage." "She'll have to accept it was him now." "Have you found the phone?" "No." "And did anybody see my husband on the phone?" "No witnesses as yet." "So, it's obvious what happened, isn't it?" "Someone was following us, and they saw us loading up the car and they made the call." "You said you were listening to the radio at the time." "We'd had an argument." "And Dan went outside to cool off." "So he did leave your side?" "But I could see him all the time, through the window." "Why was he in his running shorts?" "Because he wears them around the house." "What about the man who pulled the trigger, who put me here?" "He's the one who should be brought to justice." "Someone hired him." "Mum doesn't need this." "They can't get her medication right." "They have to do more tests." "She's getting weaker by the day." "I know my husband better than anyone." "Did you know he'd lost his job?" "What?" "For five weeks, he's been pretending to go to work." "Maybe you didn't know him as well as you thought, Mrs Callaghan." "(KNOCK ON DOOR) Rachel Callaghan is lying." "She knows it was him." "We told her the hard facts." "So I heard." "She wouldn't listen." "I think the general gist sank in." "I've just heard from the hospital." "Rachel Callaghan has asked the doctors to withdraw her medication." "She wants to die." "Crown is concerned that the statement made and signed by the victim is false." "We want to cross-examine Mrs Rachel Callaghan on video." "My Lady, the victim is in a great deal of pain." "To cross-examine her in her hospital bed would be a terrible violation of her privacy." "However, she is prepared to give evidence one last time about what happened on the day in question." "My Lady, she will amend her story to put her husband in the clear." "We need the opportunity to test this evidence so the jury can make up their own minds." "'ve seen you play cat and mouse in court, Mr Steel." "You're merciless enough on the ablebodied." "If you don't let me, Dan Callaghan will get exactly what he wants, his wife's alibi followed by her death." "She is one of the most powerful women in chambers, but is not respecting the law." "She's allowing her husband to go unpunished." "It's not her decision to make." "This cannot go unchallenged, My Lady." "I will allow it." "My Lady, I must object." "Where would we be without setting precedents, Mr Wheeler?" "I will be watching you." "If you push Judge Callaghan one step too far... ..I will stop proceedings." "Just think what you're asking for." "The doctors are going to stop her treatment tomorrow." "She is already broken." "The one thing we can salvage from this mess is that Dan Callaghan is locked up for what he did." "Yes, but you'll be exposing her in front of her colleagues." "She's given everything for her career." "So did I." "Having paid that price, I wouldn't choose to lie." "Before this, she would have said the same thing." "George, I promise I'll be careful." "No matter how many times you put this to me... ..the answer's the same." "Dan didn't go out of my sight." "So somebody must have been watching us." "Had you started loading up the car at 11:50?" "The eyewitness didn't see any sign of you packing." "Well, there's your answer." "How did this mystery someone else know you were leaving early?" "Whose idea was it that you park the car that day?" "Mine." "You told the police it was your husband's." "Why are you changing your story?" "Cos I was doped up to the eyeballs." "Why are you protecting your husband, Mrs Callaghan?" "Because he's innocent." "Is it fair to say that there had been a breakdown of communication in your marriage?" "What is your point, Mr Steel?" "Your husband couldn't tell you he'd lost his job." "That didn't matter." "He was designing our dream home." "Did you know he'd taken back the deposit for the plot of land after the news of your promotion?" "ã20,000 in cash." "Spare me the shock tactics." "It's a cheap trick." "Mrs Callaghan, it is the exact sum of money that the man who shot you was promised if he killed you." "(WHIMPERS)" "I think we should stop, My Lady." "The witness is clearly distressed." "Don't patronise me, Mr Wheeler!" "Are you all right to continue?" "Yes." "Step lightly, Mr Steel." "Mrs Callaghan, may I remind you that not only are you under oath here today, but you also took an oath 14 years ago when you became a judge." "I am fully aware of that." "Is it fair to say that you have devoted your life to the law?" "Yes." "The law is where your true loyalty lies?" "That you've sacrificed everything else?" "Home life, your relationships with your husband, daughter, grandchildren?" "I thought I was here as a witness to the defence, not on trial for being a lousy wife and mother." "It is also fair to say that I have protected thousands of children during my time as a judge and put many a dangerous criminal behind bars." "Then how can you bear for this to be your dying act, Mrs Callaghan?" "Lying in a court of law, committing perjury, allowing a crime to..." "Allowing the man who organised your murder to walk free." "You've done that by arresting the wrong man." "I'm completely at a loss." "Then we should end this now, My Lady." "I mean, what would you do?" "I'm sorry?" "What would you do, if you were me?" "Imagine this happening to someone in your court." "Wouldn't you want justice?" "Wouldn't you want that woman to tell the truth?" "Wouldn't you tell her not to be ashamed, remind her that she is the victim, that none of this is her fault?" "Of course." "Then please tell me the truth, Mrs Calalghan." "Can you be certain that you could see your husband at 11:45 when that call was made on the day in question?" "Yes." "I could see him." "I'm sure of it." "Why are you letting him get away with this?" "You have your answer, Mr Steel." "If a High Court Judge cannot be relied upon to uphold the law..." "How can you betray everything you believe in?" "I am ending this crossexamination right now." "We have taken enough of the witness' precious time." "I'm truly sorry, Judge Callaghan." "For everything." "Now that little exercise has proved futile," "I expect you'll be dropping the charges." "Not a chance." "It's fine by me." "I've got what I need to get my client off." "Judge Hall!" "Yes, Mr Wheeler?" "She's played right into her husband's hands." "Did she stick to her story?" "Yes." "You know it was your Dad, don't you?" "So does she." "Deep down." "But she'll never admit that." "Because she can't admit it to herself?" "Maybe she feels guilty, for not seeing how unhappy he was." "She was always so busy." "Dad spent my whole childhood..." "stopping me from disturbing her." "But I kept trying to get her attention." "And so did he." "He was counting the days to her retirement." "Do you want your dad to be held accountable?" "What I really want... ..is for her to see me and my kids..." "..and think we're worth living for." "(ALARM BLARES) Room 2!" "What's wrong?" "Is it Mum?" "She's disconnected her dialysis machine." "Mum!" "Mum!" "Mrs Callaghan!" "You're challenging Judge Callaghan's mental capacity as a witness?" "She attempted suicide, My Lady." "She is clearly far too depressed to think rationally." "I would like her to be examined by our psychiatrist, Dr Armitage." "My learned friend is resorting to underhand tactics to have this piece of evidence disregarded, My Lady." "Moreover, this would be an enfringement of her human rights, in so much as it will have a bearing on her choice to withdraw her treatment." "The doctors have agreed to suspend the withdrawal of her treatment until this issue is resolved." "My only concern is this criminal case, I'm afraid, Mr Wheeler." "You have my permission for Dr Armitage to examine her." "She didn't answer a single question, George." "Just looked right past him." "Dr Armitage has recommended that she be put on suicide watch." "I used to envy her, you know." "Always ahead of me on the career ladder." "Banging away at the glass ceiling." "Not any more." "There's no schadenfreude." "You shouldn't have to do this to your role models." "I am devastated by the responsibility of this decision, but I feel I have no choice but to declare that Judge Rachel Callaghan is not competent to give evidence in the case of Daniel Callaghan." "This may well have some bearing on the Court of Protection's decision as to whether she has the capacity to terminate her own treatment." "I can only hope that she will forgive me for encroaching on her human rights." "(BEEPING)" "(WHIMPERS)" "Ah." "I should have come sooner." "Is there anything I can do?" "Can you get me out of here?" "Where shall we go?" "1980." "The Chambers Annual Ball." "We got kicked out." "Because you got me paralytically drunk." "I haven't touched tequila since." "(THEY LAUGH)" "(WINCES) Ssh, ssh." "I still don't get it." "It's such an extreme thing to do." "Maybe if she'd been unfaithful..." "She was." "Her work." "We've seen people crack like this before." "If I can't have you, no one else will." "But those are crimes of passion, not coldblooded hits." "How does she deal with that?" "Mr Wheeler, he's just through here." "Thank you." "We intend to appeal Judge Hall's decision." "Of course." "Without Judge Callaghan's evidence, your client stands to go down for a very long time." "Why not just divorce her?" "I love her!" "You've fought for people in your condition to stay alive." "This is new for you but, given time, you could come to terms with it." "George, I can't control my bladder." "I mean, you tell me what I've got to live for." "How can someone who campaigns for human rights be so selfish in her own life?" "What's so special about you?" "It's OK for anyone else to make do, but not you." "You have a future." "You have your mind." "No." "Not according to the court." "Not after you conspired to rob me of my dignity." "Oh, you lost that the moment you lied for Dan." "Do you know what it feels like to irritate someone because you're not as quick or as smart as they are?" "I hear myself whine." "I never used to be like that." "She speaks to me like I'm..." "eight years old." "You know he's guilty." "Otherwise you would choose to live for his sake." "I know how much he means to you." "And then we had this awful row about going back." ""Don't make a fuss, Dan."" ""I'd love to laze around all day and drink wine, but I'm so much better than that."" "His love for me... ..was the one thing..." "..I could rely on... ..outside the law." "Then do the right thing." "Tell me the truth." "We...we had a row." "And he stormed outside." "I make the call." "I throw the phone." "I burn the number." "I go back to the cottage and she's cross." "I'm so pumped up you wouldn't believe." "Because for once, I'm in control." "And he was gone for about... ..20 minutes." "We get to London, and now I want to stop it, but..." "I haven't got his number." "So I make a wrong turning, pretend we lost." "He kept getting lost." "Because he was deciding whether or not... ..to..." "..to..." "She says, "Can't you do anything right?"" "I'd brought the mirror." "I got out." "It still wasn't real." "Till the concierge talked about her, and I thought..." "I thought:" "we're not so bad, me and Rachel." "Funny thing is, now that she needs you, you can't be there for her." "Now that you've admitted it... ..there's no need for you to die." "Yes, there is." "I want the Court of Protection to declare that I have the necessary capacity to terminate my treatment." "And I want you to talk to them." "Rachel." "George, it's not irrational to want to die when you've been ultimately betrayed by the person you love." "Right, I understand." "Thank you." "Is everything OK?" "The Court has decided to revoke its decision." "Rachel's treatment has been terminated." "It won't be long." "Who's with her?" "She wants her husband there." "(FLATLINE TONE)" "Call 999!" "Now!" "No, someone picked that baby up and shook it." "She's lying." "You DO know that she overdosed the baby?" "He cried loud." "Dead babies don't cry." "I didn't know he was dead, did I?" "Layla was on my sofa, having sex with her boyfriend." "The only thing making me lose my temper is you!" ""I'll make sure the baby doesn't get in the way."" "That girl didn't give a damn about that baby!" "It nearly crippled them financially." "I need my job." "More than your child?" "So what did you do?"
