"Thanks for your time." "BENNY: (ON PHONE) I trawled Ronnie Holland's phone records." "Checked, double-checked, cross-referenced." "Gave myself a migraine." "He called his daughter in Canada once a week, the odd call to a few friends." "Then another number which stuck out." "What made you think that?" "The time of the calls." "They were made after midnight." "And he does this four or five times" " over a six-month period." " So who's he calling?" "Winchford Care Home." " Ex-wife?" "Family?" " After midnight?" "Nah." " So I checked to see who lived there." " And?" " William Carney." " Was he in the cold cases?" "Isn't he just!" "William Carney." "Born Billericay, 1948." "Two hundred miles away and two years after the last Creeper murder, Carney was convicted of choking Sandra Cho to death." " She was a working girl in Liverpool." " Did he serve his full time?" "Twenty-five years, every day of it." "Man's a born predator and Ronnie Holland knew it." "Did you get hard?" "She was a bit nice, wasn't she?" "Good legs." "(FRONT DOOR BUZZING)" "Looking for one of your residents." "William Carney." " He's a popular lad this morning." " Is he?" ""Paul Ellis"." "Who's that?" "Family?" "I don't think so."

"William Carney?" "I'm DCI John Luther." "Ronnie Holland sends his regards." "Does he?" "What, from the land beyond?" "Why would you say that, sir?" "Well, he's stopped calling." "He used to like to call me, you know, when he'd had a few." "He was a devil for it." "You mind if I take a look at that phone?" "I mean, if you like, I could sit here and wait for the warrant to be signed..." "Her feet look lovely in that one, don't they?" "Do you see the arch of the instep?" "That happens when they die, you see." "It..." "It sort of bunches up, yes?" "Paul Ellis." "Who is he?" "Well, he's a fan, apparently." "Guv, I'm not comfortable with this." "Erin, you started this."

"Leave a message." "Er, hello, Mary." "It's DCI John Luther, from last night." "Um, yeah, I, you know, I just called to say hi and, um..." "Yeah." "Cheers, then." "Bye." "MARTIN:" "These are cold case files pertaining to the Shoreditch Creeper murders, circa 1979 to 1983." "Unsolved killings, which we believe were committed by William Carney." "We believe that these crimes were connected to the subsequent murders of Dani Lane, Craig Lane, Emily Hammond and one of our own, DCI Ronnie Holland." "The connection goes by the name of Paul Ellis." "Now, somewhere in these files, there's a link to him, direct or otherwise." "This thing with feet..." "What's that about?" "When I was a little boy," "I read a magazine article about foot-binding in China." "Do you know how it was done?" "They swathe a young woman's feet in strips of cloth, bending the toes under the foot, breaking the bones." "The way the women were forced to walk resulted in... hypertrophy of the hip muscles and the perineum." "It gave them very muscular vaginas." "JOHN:" "Not very shy to talk about it, are you?" "Why should I be?" "Well, there's this." "At the time of the murders, you were a dustman." "They were on your route." "But you changed your pattern once Ronnie had sniffed you out." " Yes, he did, didn't he?" " No more breaking into houses." "No more middle-class women." "It was all working girls from there on." "Well, if you can't get steak, you have to settle for hamburger." "(SIGHS) Never quite as satisfying, though." "Nice, tender cuts of meat." "How did you and Paul Ellis meet?" "I mean, how'd you get together?" " Well, you tell me." " Huh." "Well..." "How about this?" "You spent 25 years in prison, wanking into a dirty little sock, thinking about the day you get out and what you're gonna do to the little girls that got away." "Dani and Emily from Crosswood Street." "But when the time actually comes to it, well..." "Look at you." "So, you look for someone else." "I think, you know, you get on the internet," "SM sites." "Someone that wants to do what you used to do." "Someone who was younger, I don't know, fitter, stronger." " Am I making you laugh?" "What's going on?" " You really have no idea at all, do you?" "Well, then tell me." "I didn't seek him out." "He came to me." " The boy is a pilgrim." " (KNOCK ON DOOR)" " Sorry." " What is it?" " You want to see this." " What?" "What am I looking for?" "Paul Ellis." "In 1984 you were convicted of the murder of Sandra Cho." "But before that..." "Ronnie Holland liked you for another murder." "The murder of April Saunders." "April was a prostitute working out of a council flat in Camden." "The killer strangled her with stockings, bit her feet and stole her shoes." "April was arrested several times and she used aliases." "April Edwards and April Simmons in 1980." "But she was arrested twice and used the alias of April Ellis." "Turns out Ellis was her maiden name." "Ellis, Saunders, whatever we want to call her, April had a son, aged 12, Paul." "And he was hiding in the wardrobe when his mother was murdered." "He saw the whole thing." "Can you imagine that?" "What that would do to the mind of a young boy?" "Watching you murder his mother?" "JOHN:" "We're on our way to his house now." "(DOORBELL BUZZES)" "What do you want?" "I'm not your performing seal." "I'm busy." "Luther paid a visit to her." "Apparently, he's worried I might break your heart." "What did he say?" " What did he say?" " He knows something's wrong." "He's just still trying to work out what." "Oh." "Holy crap, though." "How did you get on with Barnaby?" "I spoke to him and he looked at me like I was mad." " That hardly matters now." " No?" "No." "Luther's sniffing around, so we need to move quickly." "Meaning what, exactly?" "You've got to make a full statement, on the record, today." "Catalogue everything Luther ever did." "Every lie he told, every law he broke, everything." "All right, then I need a deal." " That can't happen, Justin." " No, it has to." "I'm not losing me job for anyone." "Not him, not you." "I want proper assurances and that means legal assurances, or the deal's off." " Yes, yes." "John, this is..." " Joy Harris." "Divisional surgeon." " You understand this is a very sick man?" " Sicker than you know." "Which means he's under my duty of care." "He's fine." "He's had his meds." "He's got oxygen." "But the stress of arrest and interrogation..." "Are you joking?" "You're going to use this to shut me down?" "The minute he becomes symptomatic," "I'm pulling him out of the interrogation." "How long have I got?" "I got the remains of the hand to Forensics." "They reconstructed Barnaby's finger well enough to get a match." "So nick him, then." "How'd you do it?" "Come on." "This little boy here, I mean, he should really hate you, shouldn't he?" " I mean, you killed his mother." " You think she was a good mother?" " Oh, I think she did her best." " She was a deranged slut." "Do you know why Paul was in that wardrobe?" "Because it wasn't voluntarily, I can tell you that." "He spent a lot of time in that cupboard." "Heard and saw more than any young boy should." "Didn't take long before he started creeping about, breaking in, stealing shoes, underwear." "Peeping into bathrooms." "And so he did what any monster would do." " And what is that, hmm?" " (WHEEZES)" "Find his creator?" "Well, his first stop was dear old Ronnie Holland." "Of course, Ronnie remembers the broken little boy with the dead mummy." "So he takes pity on him." "He says "I know who did this to you." "I know who did this, son."" "So Paul turns up on my doorstep so full of rage he can hardly speak." "Don't try it." "Don't you keep trying that." "Don't you keep sucking on that thing." " I didn't make him what he is." " You're playing with me." " That was his mother." " Don't play with me." ""Your mother did it, Paul, your mother did it."" "All." "I did was shape the clay." "I'll turn that oxygen machine off, I tell you now." "All I did was give him a sense of purpose." "Oh, yeah?" "And how?" "How did you give him that, hmm?" "I explained how much fun it was, you see, killing his mother." "How do you pick your next victims?" " Tell me how you do that." " I like to think of it as one for the road... (CHOKES)" "He's using his oxygen mask far too often." "He's under too much stress." " Who is she?" " She's lovely." "I can't wait for you to meet her." "Who is she?" "!" "Who?" "!"

" No." "No, I'm all right." "(THUD FROM BEDROOM)" " Hey." " Hello, babe." " Oh, God, I'm so tired." " I know." "What a day. (CHUCKLES)" "Hey, I got loads of food and, um, and some wine." "So..." " Great." "I'll start chopping the onions." " Yeah." "I'll be down in a sec." "Benny?" "Get me the Winchford Nursing Home personnel office." "Now." "Couldn't stand it, could you?" "You couldn't stand it, all these pretty nurses thinking you were some weak man." "But you're gonna show 'em who you really are, hmm?" "Nicely done." "But you may be a little late." "Get him outside." "Get him out of here." "Get him out of here!" "Now!" " What, and you didn't even know?" " Not even." " Ugh." " Well, that's the thing." "You see quite a lot of dirty old men and whatever." "You catch them glancing at your boobs and stuff." " Ugh." " No!" "With this bloke, it's like he was looking through your skin." "Mmm." "I'm just popping to the loo." "Jode?" " So what time's Ayesha home, then?" " Half an hour ago." "Do you think she's stopped off to see what's-his-name?" " What, Steve?" " No, not Steve." "No, the weird-looking one." " What weird-looking one?" " You know." "The one that looks like..." "Who is it?" "Paul Daniels." "Jamal?" "Jamal does not look like Paul Daniels." " Jamal's fit."
