00:00The police consultancy, keeping you busy?
00:25Yeah.
00:26It took a bit of getting used to, but I'm doing the job on my own terms now, so...
00:31And it's three years since you lost Kate and Ella?
00:35Yeah.
00:36Any more sightings?
00:37Sightings?
00:38You were concerned about...
00:39I think you saw Ella on more than one occasion.
00:40I don't know.
00:41I think it just happened.
00:42I find myself back somewhere I've been with Ella, and for a second, it's like the whole
01:03thing never happened, you know?
01:06Cases like these are well-documented.
01:07I can accept that Kate is gone, but...
01:14You lost a child, Alex.
01:17Some people never lose hope of seeing them again.

04:56but all three of the assailants were wearing motorcycle helmets.
04:59It's got to be the same gang.
05:01This time, things didn't go quite to plan.
05:04We lifted traces of blood from this smashed display case.
05:07It must be from one of our assailants.
05:09We'll do some analysis for genetic markers,
05:11see if it gives us any matches.
05:13Any other leads we can work with?
05:15The shop was fitted with an intruder spray.
05:17It was activated when an employee pressed a panic button.
05:20We've got a couple of shoe treads.
05:22Well, the clothes would have been covered with it.
05:26A DNA signature that would tie them to the crime scene.
05:29They are, effectively, marked men.
05:37You've been arrested on suspicion of a criminal offence.
05:40A raid on a jewellery shop on Menton Street,
05:43which took place this morning at 9am.
05:45I want to see a doctor.
05:46You've had a thorough medical assessment.
05:48You've been signed off as fit to be interviewed.
05:50I could have been killed.
05:51You're absconding from a crime scene.
05:53I was nowhere near that robbery.
05:55We've got witness statements that attest to three assailants
05:58leaving the shop in question.
06:00One male suspect who matches your description.
06:03I could have been anyone, though, couldn't I?
06:05Two other suspects on a counter,
06:07but one of which was your mate and left you behind.
06:09We believe this robbery was gang-related.
06:11A group of lads living in family.
06:14Three similar raids in the past 12 months.
06:16You're going to pin those on me too, yeah?
06:18We only need to charge you with this one.
06:21And the level of violence that was used in this robbery,
06:23possessing offensive weapons,
06:25I mean, you're looking at a sentence of at least ten years.
06:28Ten years?
06:29But, I mean, no-one was going to get hurt.
06:31I don't think a jury would see it that way, Ryan.
06:35Someone paid you to do this job.
06:37You tell us who's behind this.
06:42What's in it for me?
06:43The fact that you cooperated would be on record with the CPS
06:46and that might hold some bearing when it comes to pressing charges.
06:49You need to give us some names, Ryan.
06:54Rebecca Bailing, defence brief.
06:56I'm requesting this interview be suspended
06:58till I have an opportunity to confer with my client.
07:00But he's already been briefed by a police station representative.
07:03An unfledged, sleep-deprived paralegal.
07:08It's entirely your call.
07:16Yeah, I want out.
07:18I'd like some time alone with Mr Stanford.
07:20I will, of course, require full disclosure.
07:46Ridley.
07:49Yeah.
07:50Yeah, I'll be there as soon as I can.
08:19Jane, look, here's a Jane.
08:25You look wiped out, Mum.
08:27Been on my feet all day.
08:28Go on up, I can manage.
08:33Just a coke, was it, Donna?
08:35I'd kill for a rum in it.
08:38Look, are you all right?
08:40Police pulled in Ryan this afternoon.
08:43Robbery in town.
08:46They're saying someone tipped the police off.
08:48And you think it was Ryan?
08:49I don't know what to think, Tash.
08:51I mean, maybe someone's got to him.
08:54Look, I know I haven't been around for a while,
08:56but if you ever need to talk, I'm here.
09:09Ryan Stanford pulled him in connection with the latest robbery.
09:12He was all set to give us some names before a brief arrived
09:15and advised him not to.
09:18If we can get Ryan to talk,
09:19we could probably shut down the whole operation.
09:21Right, but if you want my take on this,
09:23you charge him with the robbery
09:24and then get him remanded in custody.
09:26Buys us some time.
09:27I'll get his hearing set up for tomorrow morning.
09:30That intel on the robbery, it wasn't on the mark.
09:34That's the reason we brought you in.
09:35You need to get a handle on your source.
09:38OK.
09:42Please leave a message after the tone.
10:13Your bail is conditional.
10:14You'll need to reside at your grandfather's address
10:16till your trial date's confirmed.
10:18Understood?
10:19Understood.
10:23Here.
10:24Thought they were going to lock you up.
10:25Thanks for the vote of confidence.
10:27I didn't mean that.
10:28Let's just get out of here, yeah?
10:35I called Frank.
10:37Told him you'd got bail.
10:39He's so pleased to see you back home.
10:43Brian!
10:45Brian!
11:13He was run down in a side street.
11:15A few minutes walk from the magistrate's court.
11:17Suspected he had been run.
11:18Any witnesses?
11:19Not that we know of.
11:20His girlfriend was with him when they left the here
11:22and apparently Brian took off without warning.
11:24How the hell did he get bail?
11:26His brief advised him to plead not guilty.
11:28When the case went to trial, she was very persuasive.
11:31Rebecca Bearling.
11:33Hardly your typical duty solicitor, is she?
11:36We need an update ASAP, all right?
11:40We need an update ASAP, our intel on the Vims.
11:43Absolutely, I'm on it.
11:45Chris, will you follow up on forensics ASAP?
11:47Comfort, hand those out.
11:49Right, Operation Limestone.
11:52Mr Ridley has been across this operation for the past few months
11:54and is assisting with this case on a consultancy basis.
11:59OK, so, Operation Limestone,
12:01an ongoing investigation into a series of violent robberies
12:05with suspected links to organised crime.
12:08We have a group of potential suspects under surveillance.
12:11No breakthroughs as of yet
12:13until yesterday morning's arrest of Brian Stanford.
12:16Have a look at the mugshots there.
12:18Known associate of Liam Manley, one of our prime suspects,
12:22Brian was all set to talk
12:24and then this morning he was killed in a hit-and-run.
12:27Possible reprisal, killing. We could be looking at one of their own.
12:30Yeah, you'd think they'd be keeping their heads down at this point.
12:33The stolen items will be fenced and sold on to clients, usually abroad.
12:36These lads on bikes are strictly small time.
12:38We still need to find out who's pulling the strings.
12:40It's the middlemen. They never get their hands dirty, do they?
12:43What else did the robbery give us?
12:44Mopeds were stolen.
12:46Tech working on Ryan's phone.
12:47CCTV.
12:48There was one camera that was out of action in a shop.
12:51Oh, that was convenient.
12:52We've spoken to the owner, Mr Bentham.
12:54He runs a chain of jewellery shops.
12:56Harry Bentham?
12:57What, do you know him?
12:58Yeah, a bit of a face about the club.
13:00So, this tip-off we received on the robbery,
13:03it didn't come from Ryan Stanford?
13:05That intel was gathered from an anonymous source.
13:12Look, our number one priority is finding out who killed Ryan Stanford.
13:16So, let's run with the probability that these two crimes are connected.
13:20This is now a murder enquiry.
13:22Let's go.
13:31Injuries were consistent with a hit-and-run.
13:34Multiple fractures to the right femur and pelvis.
13:37Severe internal bleeding.
13:39Whoever ran him down was travelling at some speed.
13:42Could have been a random accident.
13:44Acceleration marks on the road.
13:46Vehicle drove straight at him, no deviation.
13:48So, this was premeditated.
13:50No cameras, no witnesses.
13:52Most hit-and-runs leave behind some paint evidence.
13:54His clothing was tested for residue traces.
13:57We found flecks of white paint on Ryan's trousers.
14:03I mean, they were contaminated with dirt and grease.
14:05But if we can match it to a paint code on the database...
14:08It could give us some leads to make a model of the vehicle.
14:11We'll do some IR analysis.
14:13It's the undercoat layer structure that gives us all the answers.
14:16And white paint is notoriously uniform.
14:19So, we shouldn't get our hopes up.
14:21I'll keep you both updated.
14:23Thanks, Wendy.
14:27Yeah, it's premeditated,
14:29but it's not your typical gangland hit, though, is it?
14:31You don't seem too convinced.
14:33I'm keeping an open mind.
14:35Have you spoken to Ryan's girlfriend yet?
14:37I'm heading there now.
14:38Oh, I'll tag along.
14:39We were leaving court just after the hearing.
15:01Ryan said he had somewhere he needed to be.
15:03He didn't say where he was going?
15:05Not that I remember.
15:08OK.
15:11Well, in case you do...
15:18How long had you and Ryan been together?
15:20A couple of years now.
15:22Moved in with his grandad when I found out I was pregnant.
15:27How many weeks?
15:2819.
15:30As a boy.
15:33Yeah.
15:34Yeah.
15:36It was good of him to take you in, wasn't it?
15:41Yeah, well, Ryan grew up here.
15:43They've always been close.
15:46This is really going to finish wrong.
15:51It's OK.
15:56We're sorry for your loss, Mr Stamford.
16:01There's plenty to be glad to see the back of him.
16:05When did you last speak to Ryan?
16:07A couple of days ago.
16:09I heard he'd been arrested.
16:11Did you know he'd been involved in those robberies?
16:15He made a promise to us when Donna got pregnant.
16:19He swore blind that he'd turn his life around.
16:24It's the only reason I agreed to take her in.
16:27I understand Ryan grew up here.
16:30With you and your wife.
16:32That's right.
16:35Pardon me.
16:39She's passed on.
16:45We did the best for the lad.
16:48But it was always an handful.
16:50Yeah.
16:52Not much for them in this town, is there?
16:57Ryan grew up with a bad crowd.
16:59Yeah.
17:00Anyone in particular we should be talking to.
17:02I swear he's started kicking, Frank.
17:04He knows something's wrong.
17:10Do you recognise this face?
17:15A close-knit town like this,
17:17where they'll soon get around that you've been here.
17:21We only want to find who killed him, Mr Stamford.
17:25Liam.
17:27Liam Manley.
17:30Riley's best friend.
17:33What a piece of work he is.
17:35Any idea where we might find him?
17:39He drinks at the bridge inn.
17:42I don't know where he is.
17:44I don't know where he is.
17:46I don't know where he is.
17:48I don't know where he is.
17:50I don't know where he is.
17:51I don't know where he is.
17:52He drinks at the bridge inn.
17:56Hope, just off the high street.
18:00OK.
18:02We will need someone to come in
18:04and make a formal idea of Ryan's body.
18:08Next of kin.
18:10She knows more than she's saying.
18:12Oh, definitely, yeah.
18:13You won't get much from anyone around here,
18:15you know, code of honour and all that.
18:17Time we questioned Liam Manley.
18:19Yeah, well, it's best I'm not seen around the bridge inn,
18:21that's for sure.
18:22We don't want to put our source at risk.
18:24Exactly.
18:25Maybe you should take Darren's bike up, you know.
18:29I don't know.
18:31I don't know.
18:33I don't know.
18:35I don't know.
18:36I don't know.
18:37Take Darren's bike up, you know.
18:40Still looking out for me, are you?
18:43It's a hobbit I'm trying to break, yeah.
18:46Then give me a leg up this hill.
18:54We're looking for Liam Manley.
19:03DI Farman, Coperton Police.
19:05We're investigating a robbery that took place in Allerton yesterday morning.
19:09What are you talking to me for?
19:10Well, I'd like to know where you were.
19:12I would have been in here.
19:13At nine o'clock in the morning.
19:15One of the fridges was on the blink.
19:17Liam fixed it for me.
19:22Let's take this outside, shall we?
19:35Ryan Stanford was murdered this morning.
19:37So I heard, yeah.
19:38So where were you at the time?
19:40Decorating job.
19:41One of those big houses over in Lostock.
19:44I heard you and Ryan were best mates.
19:46I hadn't seen much of him out there.
19:48Is that your van?
19:50It's a company van.
19:51Well, you must be insured to drive it.
19:53Yeah, well, what if I am? Yeah.
19:55Just check in.
19:56We done here?
19:58For now.
20:07No sign of any damage.
20:09I still think we should run those plates.
20:10And check up on that decorating job as well.
20:12Something tells me he is lying through his teeth.
20:16Ryan, I'm not joking.
20:17And there it is.
20:18It's the stallion, the Italian stallion.
20:23Sorry, am I interrupting?
20:27Didn't expect to see you so early.
20:29No, no.
20:30Job came up, so sadly I won't be able to do my spot tonight.
20:33Oh, well, a bit of notice would have been nice.
20:35I know, Annie.
20:36You know, I hate letting you down, but it is important.
20:39Fine, I'll make a few calls.
20:41You should try that girl we booked last week.
20:44You know, younger vibe.
20:45Never hurts to mix things up a bit.
20:47I see you're drowning your sorrows.
20:49That robbery up on Allerton, I heard that was one of your shops.
20:52What robbery was this?
20:53I didn't want to worry you.
20:54I'm not made of glass, Harry.
20:56Bunch of young lads on mopeds.
20:58We arrested one of them.
20:59Lawyer gets them out,
21:00next thing we know he's wiped out in a hit and run outside the courthouse.
21:03Any idea who's behind it?
21:05Well, we're not ruling anybody out at the minute.
21:10Check you later.
21:23Ow!
21:41You're late.
21:53Yeah, view's much nicer this time of the evening, isn't it?
21:57Mm. Feels good to be able to breathe again.
22:02That Ryan Stanford murder must be the talk of the town.
22:06Heard he was arrested.
22:07Mm. Team think it's connected with the robbery.
22:10You know, I spoke to his girlfriend.
22:12She was worried Ryan might have grasped.
22:15Right.
22:16Donna Burnside.
22:18We were mates growing up.
22:21She always thought the world of Ryan.
22:23Not a sentiment you went along with.
22:26Ryan got Donna knocked up.
22:27It's the only reason he stayed with her.
22:29Never could keep her in his trousers.
22:33Well, she's going to need somebody to confide in, so...
22:36Yeah, I'll do some digging.
22:39That intelligence you gave us on the robbery,
22:41how did you come by that?
22:43Group of framily lads met up in the pub.
22:45They'd been riding round on stolen bikes.
22:48I could just tell they were planning something.
22:51Did you put any names to their faces?
22:53Mm, yeah.
22:55It's all in there.
22:57Record of events to an evidential standard.
23:00Very good.
23:06Two detectives came in the pub
23:08and they were talking to Liam Manley.
23:10Yeah, I know.
23:11Liam's small time. He's no-one special.
23:14Even so, you'd get close to him.
23:18Yeah, I'll keep you updated.
23:22How's the backstory holding up?
23:24Right, so, short-lived career in the army.
23:27Rifles, 5th Battalion, UN missions in Somalia, South Sudan.
23:31And you came back?
23:32To bury my dad.
23:38Is that the reason you left in the first place?
23:42Let's just say we didn't get on.
23:44Sorry to hear that.
23:49I think I always wanted to prove I was better than him.
23:52So you decided to be a cop?
23:54Well, I could have gone either way.
23:56If I'd have stuck around in Framley,
23:58I'd probably have ended up with a record.
24:02Still, four years.
24:05It's a long time to be away.
24:07Not long enough.
24:09And what makes you so sure that they're going to talk to you?
24:14I know these people better than anyone.
24:16Still, the murder.
24:19That's changed everything, hasn't it?
24:21The stakes have been raised.
24:22It might be the breakthrough I need.
24:24Meaning?
24:25Word on the street is it was Ryan who was leaking.
24:27Puts me in the clear.
24:29Buys us some time.
24:32Tasha.
24:35Mind yourself.
24:38Mind yourself.
24:40Yeah.
24:59I might be back late this evening, so I'm just going to kip on couch.
25:02I don't want to wake Meadow up.
25:04I could do with some support on the nine feet.
25:06Has he been smoking?
25:07Has he been smoking?
25:08Yeah, yeah.
25:09I'll put in the extra hours at the weekend.
25:11I'm going to be late too.
25:12I've got football.
25:14Looks like it's just you and me, beautiful.
25:16Shall we do some tummy time?
25:18Oh, you might want to put her back down, babe.
25:20We don't want to miss the sleep window.
25:22She's only been up a couple of hours.
25:24I know, but if we're going to get the little sleep thief
25:26to sleep through the night,
25:28then we have to get her to stick to her sleep schedule.
25:32Catch us later, yeah?
25:33Have a good day, love.
25:35Oh, your baby.
25:40So, I've been thinking about going back to work.
25:45OK.
25:46My maternity leave's nearly up.
25:49I could always teach lectures from home.
25:51Yeah, well, that's good, because childcare's expensive, isn't it?
25:54And Meadow's a bit funny with strangers.
25:56I could always ask your dad for some help.
25:58No, not going to happen.
25:59PHONE RINGS
26:01I've got to take this. Sorry.
26:03Yeah.
26:04I checked in with the desk sergeant.
26:06Apparently, Ryan made a call when he was in police custody.
26:09Phone is registered to a woman called Catherine Penrose.
26:12I've sent you the address.
26:15Blackhall Fold Stud.
26:17Yeah, that's the one. I'll see you there.
26:19OK. See you there.
26:21Right, I've got to go.
26:24I'll see you later, yeah? I love you.
26:26I love you. I love you. Bye-bye.
26:28Bye-bye. Don't miss a nap, girl.
26:31Yes, I know.
26:35It's just you and me.
26:48Thought I might find you here, Frankie boy.
26:51What do you want?
26:53Came to offer my condolences. You know, Ryan was my best mate.
26:56You don't care about Ryan.
26:58It's your fault he's dead.
27:00Look, police were asking questions about those robberies.
27:04Someone must have given the heads up.
27:06A lowlife like you?
27:08They'll have already had you in their sights.
27:10Be careful what you say, Frank.
27:12Yeah? I'm not afraid of you, lad.
27:16Well, maybe you should be.
27:30I love you.
28:00Hello. DI Apartment, Cobbleton, please.
28:03We're hoping to speak with Katherine Benrose.
28:05She'll be in the manager's office.
28:07Other side of the jumping room. Thanks.
28:22Door. Hang on.
28:31OK, clear.
28:37Top of the stairs. Can't miss it.
28:39Thanks.
28:45We wanted to ask you some questions about Ryan Stanford.
28:48Yeah, I heard Ryan was in some kind of trouble.
28:50He was killed yesterday, hit and run.
28:54I'm sorry to hear that.
28:56How well did you know him?
28:58As well as any of the other employees.
29:00So Ryan was working here?
29:02Just for a few weeks, few odd jobs around the place.
29:05Really? Just doesn't stack up.
29:08We just arrested Ryan for his partner robbery.
29:11Yours was the mobile robbery, Ryan.
29:15Ryan called to tell me he'd been arrested.
29:18He wanted to know if I could help him.
29:21I didn't think it was appropriate.
29:23How long have you been running the stud?
29:25My husband inherited the place. It's been in the family for years.
29:28Yeah? Is your husband around?
29:31Simon, he's over in Ireland meeting buyers.
29:33Won't be back until this evening.
29:35I'm actually expecting a visit from Simona's,
29:38unless, of course, there's anything else.
29:40Do you mind if we talk to some of your grooms?
29:45Yeah, of course, if you think it might help.
29:48If I'm honest, I never really liked him.
29:50Bit of a chip.
29:52What makes you say that?
29:54Like he resented the Penrose's lifestyle.
29:56The money, the spoilt kid.
29:59Right.
30:01Still, it's an impressive set-up, isn't it?
30:04For those who can afford it.
30:0685 acres of rail paddocks, summer grazing, it all comes at a price.
30:10And Simon Penrose, what involvement does he have with the stud?
30:13He sees the stud as an expensive hobby.
30:15Mrs Penrose does most of the heavy lifting.
30:18We know that Ryan called her the day before he was killed.
30:23He followed her around like a lapdog.
30:25Even saw him go up to the house a few times.
30:27Usually when Simon was awake.
30:29So what, are you saying that their relationship
30:32was more than just professional?
30:34Why else would he keep coming back?
30:39So, let's say Ryan had been playing away.
30:42The odd romp in the hay with an older woman.
30:44Yeah, Tasha did tell me he had a bit of a rep.
30:46Did Tasha mention anything?
30:48No.
30:50She said he had a bit of a rep.
30:52Did Tasha mention anything about Liam Manly?
30:54Only that he was small-time.
30:56It's just she gave Liam an alibi at the time of the robbery
30:59and said that he'd been helping out at the pub.
31:01She what?
31:03She gave Liam an alibi?
31:06She told me he was small-time.
31:08She lied to me. Why would she do that?
31:10These are people that she grew up with.
31:13Maybe she's too close to this.
31:15No. No, no, no.
31:17She must have had a reason. She must have.
31:19What's she up to?
31:22So, what are we going to do?
31:23Well, we're going to keep a close eye on her
31:25and we're certainly not going to share any new intelligence with her
31:28until we know she can be absolutely trusted.
31:44All right.
31:49Come on.
32:09Yeah. Yes.
32:13Oh, Harry.
32:14Ah, dropped in to give Daryl here an inventory of the stolen goods.
32:18Insured to the value of 800K.
32:20Seriously?
32:22We just had a signature collection delivered, so thieves get lucky.
32:27Didn't they just?
32:28We're pursuing the new lines of enquiry.
32:30We'll be making more arrests soon.
32:32Oh, good. Well, keep me updated.
32:35Will do.
32:37Daryl.
32:43That insurance claimer Harry Bentham's.
32:46It's got to be ringing alarm bells.
32:48You think it might be an inside job?
32:50You never rule it out.
32:53You said you knew Harry Bentham from the club?
32:56Yeah, he's been...
32:58He's been hanging about with Annie, you know.
33:00Annie's got a new man?
33:03It's early days, you know.
33:05Sounds like it might be a conflict of interest.
33:08Well, I just think we should check him out.
33:10That's all I'm saying.
33:11Boss. Hmm?
33:12I pulled out Rebecca Bailin's case history of the lawyer that acted for Ryan.
33:16She handled the conveyancing of cash purchases of a number of properties.
33:20Rental homes, vacant land plots.
33:22They were bought by various shell companies, but one jumped out at me.
33:26Check out the name of the company director.
33:29Terrence Michael Sansom.
33:31Friends call him Terry.
33:33Born in Framley, made his money in Harwich.
33:35Perfect front for criminal activity.
33:37We're going to need more than that.
33:39Take a look at his previous.
33:42Arrested and charged ten years ago for handling stolen goods.
33:46For the robbery that cleared out the auction house.
33:49Lawyers got him off on a technicality.
33:51He was also questioned by the Dutch police
33:53in connection with the murder of a Rotterdammer seier five years ago.
33:56No-one was ever charged, but there were rumoured connections to the Dutch penelty.
33:59It's someone you wouldn't want to mess with.
34:01And someone capable of Ryan's murder.
34:03You think he's our fence?
34:05Only one way to find out. Let's get into it.
34:13So, we wanted to ask you some questions about a man named Terry Sansom.
34:18I advise him on managing his business assets.
34:20Ryan Stanford's murder, I'm assuming, as is brief.
34:23You've been brought up to speed.
34:25I'm under an obligation to reveal details of any of my clients.
34:28Could always do this down the station.
34:30He gets arrested for his part in a robbery.
34:3220 minutes later, you show up.
34:34Which makes us wonder whether Terry tipped you off.
34:37I don't need to answer these questions.
34:39You give us confirmation that it was Sansom who called you.
34:42Or what?
34:43Or one word from the SIO and we're back in here with a warrant
34:46on the suspicion of your involvement with money laundering.
34:49Well, that's a libelous accusation.
34:51Either way, nobody's going to touch you
34:53and all your lucrative clients are going to disappear.
34:59Ryan did some work for him over at the depot.
35:01Good. Gets around, doesn't he?
35:04I got a call saying that he'd been arrested.
35:06All right. So, if he gives us some names...
35:11..risk is you're going to be implicated.
35:13I'm just a lawyer who's good at her job.
35:15Did you speak to Sansom personally?
35:17He really wouldn't have been that stupid.
35:19We might need you to confirm that on the record.
35:21This conversation never took place.
35:26You go after Sansom, you'll be chasing shadows.
35:29Well, you'd better hope so,
35:31because if we find any evidence
35:33linking Terry Sansom to those robberies...
35:36..we're going to bring you down with him.
35:39Ryan Stamford. Name ring any bells?
35:41No, I can't say it does.
35:42We were told he used to work here.
35:44Well, he might have done some hours in the warehouse.
35:46Somebody was saying that the haulage industry
35:48is struggling these days.
35:49We adapt, you know, streamline profit margins, pull in our horns.
35:52Apparently, there's a lucrative sideline and fencing stolen goods.
35:56I'm a busy man.
35:58Let's cut to the chase, shall we?
36:00Ryan Stamford gets arrested for his part in the jewellery raid.
36:02He's all set to talk, and he ends up dead the next day.
36:05You think I had something to do with it?
36:07No, we pulled up your record.
36:08That diamond merchant in Rotterdam
36:10ends up with a bullet in the back of his head.
36:12I was released without charge.
36:14You were all over it, mate.
36:15It's a premeditated hit.
36:17You notice a pattern emerging?
36:18What were your movements yesterday morning?
36:20Trip a day off.
36:21Daughter's 10th birthday party.
36:23So, if that's all there is,
36:25this is starting to feel like harassment.
36:27You listen to me, Terry.
36:29If we flag up that your business is a front for criminal activity,
36:32I'm sure customs would take great pleasure
36:34in shaking down every single lorry you've got out there.
36:37This business is clean.
36:39I bring a lot of money to this town.
36:41Jobs, wages.
36:44I'm one of the good guys.
36:46So, unless you've got something on me,
36:48it's time you left.
36:53He's right. We've got nothing.
36:55And now he knows we've got eyes on him.
36:57Yeah, but sometimes, if you ruffle a few feathers,
37:00you know, it might throw off a few leads.
37:05Thanks for meeting me.
37:06It feels stifling being stuck in that house with Frank.
37:08How's he bearing up?
37:10I just feel like we're in the bay.
37:12You're in the bay, but you're all he's got left.
37:14That stuff's ever been steathing.
37:16Ryan ever tell you where it ended up?
37:18Well, I wasn't going to ask.
37:19You need to think about your future now.
37:21Ryan's cut for that job.
37:23Look, I don't want anything to do with that money.
37:25All right.
37:30That fellow at Liam's worth.
37:32Alan Douglas?
37:33Yeah.
37:34He was parked in his van outside court.
37:36I swear that's where Ryan took off.
37:40Told anyone else about this?
37:42More than my life's worth.
37:44He really scares me, Tash.
37:49All right, Donna?
37:50She's been better.
37:51Well, you know what they say about a rat.
37:54You need to catch it and put it down.
37:56Show me what to do with her, then.
37:57Ryan didn't rat on anyone.
37:59I don't remember asking you.
38:00Leave it, Cal.
38:02Turns up like a bad penny.
38:04Four years fighting for king and country.
38:07Which regiment was it again?
38:09I said leave it.
38:14Congratulations.
38:17What sort of whip round?
38:19For the kid?
38:21You're priceless, you know that?
38:25You coming?
38:27In a sec, yeah.
38:33I don't know what you're seeing him.
38:35Callum.
38:36He's harmless.
38:39I really should get back.
38:40What's the hurry?
38:41I need to get back.
38:43There's no rush.
38:44I've got a pub to open.
38:46See you tonight?
38:48Maybe.
38:49Maybe?
38:50Maybe.
38:53OK.
38:55But just make sure you watch your back, yeah?
39:16Ridley.
39:17I did some digging into Harry Bentham.
39:19Oh, yeah?
39:20He bought 10,000 shares for half a million
39:23in a mining company called Benter Rough Diamonds.
39:25Wow. Yeah?
39:26But within four days, the share prices dropped by 40%.
39:30He would have lost a packet.
39:32Yeah, he's going to be wanting to claw back some of those losses,
39:35isn't he?
39:36Mm.
39:37Shouldn't we be looking at this guy as a suspect?
39:39I'm certainly not ruling him out.
39:41In this line of inquiry, do you write past the SIO?
39:45Oh, yeah, absolutely, don't I?
39:47Hey.
39:56Annie told me I'd find you here.
40:00Well, the longer the shop stays closed,
40:03the longer I'm losing money.
40:05Losing money, yeah.
40:06Those shares you bought took a bit of a tumble, didn't they?
40:10You been checking up on me?
40:12Just following the leads.
40:14You don't seriously think that I was in on this?
40:17Oh, come on, Harry, I know a chance for when I see one.
40:20Hey, wait a minute.
40:22This shop is going to need a complete refit.
40:25My staff are too frightened to come back to work,
40:28so it really would not be worth the aggravation.
40:32Mm-hm.
40:33You ever come across a bloke called Terry Sansom?
40:38Off the record?
40:39If it needs to be.
40:43Yeah, sure, I've heard his name.
40:45At the trade fairs.
40:47You want a bit of knock-off bling, he's your go-to man.
40:51He's got a big haulage company, though, hasn't he?
40:53Yeah, it's got to be a front.
40:55Perfect way to move stolen merchandise.
40:58You think he's involved in all of this?
41:01He's what's known as a person of interest.
41:03Well, you'll need to shift the stolen gear pretty damn quick.
41:08Young lad's just been murdered.
41:10What makes you think he'd go anywhere near it?
41:12Well, high-end items like these are usually stolen to order,
41:15so those clients will be looking for a return on their investment.
41:19Right.
41:21What about yourself, Harry?
41:23Ever been tempted by the lure of dirty money?
41:27No.
41:29Straight as a die. That's me.
41:32Just ask Annie.
41:33I will.
41:35I've got to take this.
41:38Tasha?
41:39I got a name from Donna, Callum Douglas.
41:42He works with Liam Manley, that decorating business.
41:45Never came up on our surveillance.
41:47He was waiting for Ryan outside court the morning he was killed.
41:51Got it. Thanks.
42:05I'm going to scan you for smart water.
42:20I'm going to have to swab that.
42:22So, Callum, we've found traces of a liquid deterrent on your skin,
42:26a unique DNA code that can place you at that robbery.
42:30We also found traces of your blood at the crime scene.
42:33That injury that you're nursing on your arm.
42:35Your profile was already on the database, came back as a match.
42:39There's enough evidence here to send you down.
42:41So why don't we start with the stolen jewellery?
42:43Do you want to tell us where it is?
42:45No comment.
42:47We know that one of the assailants was Ryan Stamford.
42:50I'm guessing that the third man was Liam Manley.
42:54No comment.
42:55Terry Sansom, you know who he is?
42:57Never heard of him.
42:58Really? Because we think he hired you to do those robberies.
43:02No comment.
43:04Where were you Thursday lunchtime, Callum?
43:07Would have been working.
43:09We can place your van in Allerton
43:11around the time that Ryan Stamford was murdered.
43:16We'll drive into town.
43:18Get some block paving sealant.
43:20That place on Clarence Street.
43:22We have a witness places you outside the Magistrates' Court.
43:25That's a ten-minute drive from Clarence Street.
43:28She must have got that wrong.
43:29We never said they were a she.
43:33So, you're worried Ryan may have given us your name.
43:37You want to even the score.
43:39I mean, someone with your reputation.
43:41I mean, that would put the frighteners on anybody.
43:44I just wanted to find out if I could still trust him.
43:47Right.
43:48Ten minutes later, he winds up dead.
43:50Do you seriously think I killed him?
43:52Right now, it's not looking very good for you.
43:54I had nothing to do with it, mate.
43:56You're already going down for these robberies.
43:58If the word gets out you gave it Sansom,
44:00you know, you're banged up in prison, you've got nowhere to run.
44:02I'll never give you anyone!
44:04I'm not a grouse!
44:05Ryan Stamford was a loose cannon.
44:08It stands to reason that Terry Sansom would want him silenced.
44:11So, he gets you to do this dirty work for him.
44:24Me and Ryan,
44:26we were just having boys.
44:28Bomb of the fortune.
44:30All the stolen gear.
44:33Took the money up to the stud farm.
44:35Which stud farm is this?
44:41Those visits Ryan paid to the stud,
44:43if he were working as a golfer for Sansom.
44:45Probably shifting some cash for Penrose.
44:47Yeah, but Penrose is clean.
44:48No history of anything remotely dubious.
44:50Which makes him the perfect accomplice.
44:52Yeah, but we've still got nothing that ties him to Terry Sansom.
44:54Well, you'd better find something, then.
44:56I've been called to give evidence at the Crown Court tomorrow,
44:59so I might be out of all loot for a couple of hours.
45:01Fine. I think we can manage without you.
45:03Always a worry where you're concerned, Ridley.
45:11Clever. And where are you going to call a blue?
45:13Your belly!
45:14Who's that?
45:16One, two, three, one, two, daddy!
45:19Hello, tiger!
45:21Shouldn't you be in bed?
45:23He wanted to wait up for his daddy.
45:25Yeah, well, I'll get him down.
45:27Come on.
45:28Daddy's very tired from his trip,
45:30so let's get you to bed, eh?
45:32Yeah?
45:33I expected you home hours ago.
45:35Oh, the flight was delayed.
45:38Come on, I'll read you a story.
45:40How a parrot is very hungry.
45:56Please, arrested, Karen Douglas.
45:58All I wanted to tell you is bad news.
46:00I need you to make these disappear.
46:04You swore blind you had nothing to do with those robberies.
46:06I just told you what you wanted to hear, all right?
46:08And what am I supposed to do with them?
46:10I don't know. Bump them, hide them, just get rid.
46:12That would make me an accessory.
46:14Please, Tash, you're the only one I can trust.
46:17You're the only one I can trust.
46:48Alison Bridge, CID.
47:10Elsewhere in the wider region,
47:12there's no sign of the robberies.
47:14Elsewhere in the wider region,
47:16there's no reported problems on the motorway...
47:18Didn't hear you coming last night.
47:20Oh, you're keeping tabs on me now, are you?
47:22Liam Manly is no good for you, Tasha.
47:24You should have learnt that by now.
47:26You're the world's expert when it comes to unsuitable men.
47:29I know your dad wasn't perfect,
47:31but it broke his heart when you left.
47:33You're still making excuses for him, even now?
47:35He's dead and buried. Tasha, isn't that enough for you?
47:38He was the one man I was told to look up to.
47:40Oh, he did his best. Four years.
47:42Not a word. No idea where you were.
47:44And now you're back where you started, with him.
47:47KNOCK AT DOOR
47:49Mind out.
47:51DC Lackhand Copperton Police. Is your daughter at home?
47:55Got a warrant to search these premises.
47:57You can't just walk in here. Let's just step inside.
47:59Oi!
48:00You want to tell us what it is you're looking for?
48:02You can't go in there.
48:04Bathroom, please.
48:06Get in clear.
48:08Erm... Hang on.
48:13DOOR OPENS
48:17Can you just be careful, please?
48:21Boss!
48:28How did these clothes come to be in your possession?
48:31Tasha Walker, I'm arresting you on suspicion of assisting an offender.
48:35You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence
48:38if you do not mention when questioned something which you later align in court.
48:41But if you do say anything, give me evidence.
48:50Put your head on.
49:41THE END
