00:00These things still give me the creeps.
00:25As long as she does her job, we'll be good.
00:30For another year.
00:33Go on.
00:36You do your stuff.
00:38You could use a bit of luck.
00:41Oh, get still, girl!
00:43I always thought you'd be the death of me!
00:47Right.
00:48Come on, Mrs.
00:49Come on, girl.
00:50Come on, that's right.
00:51Good girl.
00:52Move aside.
00:53You don't even know how to feed a calf.
00:59Oh, move aside.
01:00You don't even know how to feed a calf.
01:02Oh, move aside.
01:03You don't even know how to feed a calf.
01:05Come on, Mrs.
01:06Come on, girl.
01:08Come on, that's right.
01:10Good girl.
01:11Good girl.
01:12Move aside.
01:13You don't even know how to feed a calf.
01:14I'll go.
01:15That's it.
01:16I'll go.
01:17That's it.
01:18I'll go.
01:19That's it.
01:20I'll go.
01:23That's it.
01:24That's it.
01:25I'll go.
01:39That's it.
01:49Stella!
01:55Stella!
01:57Stella, what...
01:59Oh, no!
02:16One morning in the month of June
02:19Down by a rolling river
02:21There where he tried a chance to stray
02:24And he beheld his lover
02:26Her cheeks were red and eyes were brown
02:29Her hair and ringlets hanging down
02:31She'd a lovely face without a frown
02:33Just as the tide was flowing
02:36Books, pencil case and calculator
02:48Anything else?
02:49Mum always put in a bar of chocolate
02:51And a note with a smiley face
02:53A bar of chocolate?
02:54A big one for energy and to help me concentrate
02:57Humphrey said it would be okay
02:59We'll see
03:03I'll do your pet lunch in the morning
03:05Bedtime
03:11Thank you
03:12Good night
03:14So, should I give her the chocolate or not?
03:18You decide, Morty
03:21Oh
03:22Right
03:23I'm off to my art class
03:25Tonight we're doing Picasso
03:27And how he challenged convention
03:28With the use of cubism
03:29Ooh
03:30Don't wait up
03:31Oh
03:59Right
04:00We can't get a soccer routine out until the morning,
04:03so I'm just taping it off for an hour.
04:05Thank you, Kelly.
04:07You know boots?
04:08Remember boots?
04:10Well done.
04:30Who's your friend?
04:56Not sure.
04:57We've just met.
04:59Stella's been checked by the paramedics, but nothing major.
05:01She said she remembered being pushed from behind
05:04and thinks she banged her head as she fell.
05:06Mm-hmm.
05:22It's a corn doll.
05:24They're made from the last harvest
05:25and hung to bring luck until the next one.
05:27Forty years we've been hanging that doll.
05:29Never lost one yet.
05:30Legend is, if the doll falls, corn man comes to visit.
05:35Bringing bad luck with him.
05:36The corn man.
05:38City boy, are you?
05:40Maybe if you'd just tell us what you saw.
05:42Well, me and Dad were feeding the cattle up in the big barn and when we heard a noise, I went out to take a look.
05:50Went into the milk shed and milk was just pouring out the tank.
05:53What time was this?
05:55What time was this?
05:56Uh, just after seven.
05:58All of a sudden, I was about to turn the valve off when I felt like a hard shove in my back and I fell forward.
06:03I must have banged my head.
06:05Dad came in and that's when we saw it.
06:08It?
06:10Well, we couldn't see it properly.
06:13It was dark.
06:14It was only in the doorway for a second, but it had a mask on.
06:19It looked like it was made of corn.
06:22Oh.
06:23And this, um, thing, Mr. Ellis, you saw it too?
06:27Plain as day.
06:28Very interesting.
06:30Ow!
06:31Uh, the valve on the milk tank, could it be faulty?
06:35Been working fine up to now?
06:37I put that doll up myself, no reason for it to fall.
06:40Are you suggesting someone took the doll down on purpose?
06:42There are them that would like to see us have bad luck, yes.
06:45Anyone in particular?
06:46I got a good idea.
06:47Friend of yours, isn't she?
06:49Dad, don't.
06:53Uh, I think he's talking about Michaela Robson.
06:56She lives on the neighboring farm.
06:58I see.
06:59And is there some kind of a dispute between you?
07:02We've been opposing their application for wind turbines in the backfield.
07:06Olken great things.
07:07There's been cows in those fields for a thousand years.
07:09Now they want to put up Olken girt whirly gigs.
07:12A new thing what happened tonight could be connected to your opposition to a wind farm.
07:16Whoever did this knew what they were doing.
07:18Losing that milk will half our income.
07:23So how do you know this Michaela, um...
07:31Robson?
07:32Hmm.
07:33We went to school together, then we went to young farmers back in the day.
07:37You were a young farmer?
07:39Well, I was more of an honorary member.
07:42Mostly there for the cheap beer and hunky blobs.
07:45Of course.
07:46So there's conflict between the two families?
07:49There is.
07:51But I don't think it's about wind turbines.
07:54Oh?
07:55Stella and Michaela were in a relationship.
07:57At least until Stella's dad found out.
08:00And he had a problem with that?
08:01What do you think?
08:03He made Stella's life a misery.
08:05Threatened to disown her, leave her with nothing.
08:07Then when that didn't work, he used emotional blackmail.
08:09Told her trying to run the farm on his own would kill him.
08:11So she ended it.
08:13And I don't think Michaela ever forgave her.
08:15Or him.
08:16So the families fell out long before this whole wind farm thing?
08:19This was over a year ago now.
08:21Maybe the wind farmers stirred it all up again.
08:23There's not help by the fact that Michaela's mum Lottie
08:26is just as stubborn as George.
08:28Hmm.
08:29Hmm.
08:30A family feud.
08:32How exciting.
08:33How exciting.
08:50Hi.
08:52God, I haven't seen you in ages.
08:53How are you?
08:54How's Zoe?
08:55Both good.
08:56This is Detective Inspector Humphrey Goodman.
08:58Hello.
08:59Is everything all right?
09:01Oh, we're really sorry for coming over this time of night, Mickey.
09:04But can we ask you and Lottie a few questions
09:06about something that happened at Ellis' farm earlier?
09:09You working?
09:10Yeah.
09:11Right.
09:12Is everything okay?
09:14Is anyone hurt?
09:15No.
09:16And we won't keep you long.
09:17Oh, come in.
09:18Mum's just getting logs.
09:19I'll give her a shout.
09:22Mum!
09:24Mum!
09:25The night of the day, the night of the day, the night of the day!
09:26Oh, go.
09:27Who are you?
09:28What are you?
09:29Well, not.
09:30Oh, God.
09:46Come on.
09:47She's coming.
09:50Can I get you anything? Tea? Coffee?
09:53Nothing, thanks.
09:54Ow!
10:00Gosh, how long's it been?
10:02Oh, too long.
10:03I thought I might see you at my birthday party.
10:05Oh, yeah. Sorry, me and Zoe were away.
10:08Did you get anything nice? Lots. Mum got me this.
10:11Oh, it's lovely.
10:14Sorry.
10:15No, it's completely fine.
10:17Esther!
10:19What's all this about, then?
10:21Lottie, this is D.I. Goodman.
10:24Very pleased to meet you.
10:27You're a boss, is it?
10:29Yes, he is.
10:30He nice to you?
10:32Very.
10:35Mrs Robson, there was a break-in at Buckford Farm this evening.
10:39Some damage done to a milk tank in one of the sheds.
10:42What's that got to do with the price of chips?
10:44Well, it's just...
10:46Mr Ellis told us about your disagreement over the wind turbines.
10:51No disagreement.
10:53He's just got his head stuck in the past, is all.
10:57We got solar panels last year.
10:59That's the way things are going.
11:00The reason he don't like them is because they're new.
11:05And different.
11:08So what happened exactly?
11:10Their milk tank was emptied.
11:12They saw a masked figure.
11:14Is he saying it was us?
11:16Oh, not exactly.
11:19He thinks someone took down his corn doll to bring him bad luck.
11:23Oh, Gernoodle.
11:25Is he still hanging up with them things?
11:27Oh, he takes it very seriously.
11:29He's got flaming bats in his belfry.
11:32We've been at Kitty J's.
11:33We had dinner there after Mum picked me up from surfing.
11:36We haven't been home long.
11:37I'm not one for sneaking about.
11:39If I had a problem with George Ellis,
11:41I would knock on his front door and tell him so.
11:45To his face.
11:53Oh, well.
11:55She's a character.
11:57Tough as old boots, but a heart of gold when you get to know her.
12:00Like a walnut whip.
12:02Let's check their alibi anyway.
12:04Let's see if Socko comes up with any physical evidence in the morning.
12:07Esther, there's a fire at the Ellis''.
12:10It's quick over the fields.
12:12Mum, are you coming?
12:14You quick?
12:15Up here.
12:20We saw it from the window.
12:26It's their hay field.
12:28I sent Kelby to the Ellis' to check they're okay.
12:31Buckford Farm.
12:32Quick as you can, please.
12:35Let's stay back, everyone.
12:36Fire Brigade's on their way.
12:38Esther, look.
12:54You wait for the fire brigade. I'll go.
12:58You wait for the fire brigade.
13:02Good grief.
13:06Kelby!
13:07Stop him!
13:08Oi!
13:09Stay there!
13:10Don't move!
13:15Where'd he go?
13:17I lost him.
13:23Sorry, Sarah.
13:24We lost him.
13:26You did this.
13:27Look at it.
13:28Look what you've done.
13:29Oh, shut up, you silly old fool.
13:31Don't you talk to him like that.
13:32Well, he is.
13:33You took the corn doll down.
13:34I know you did.
13:35Now look what you've done.
13:36I never touch your stupid corn doll.
13:39You've brought bad luck.
13:41We're the ones that raise the alarm, you girt luck.
13:44All right, everyone.
13:45Just calm down.
13:46Fire engine's here.
13:47Let's get the fire put out.
13:48They had this jerry can, but must have dropped it when they saw us.
14:04I'm sorry, sir.
14:07I let them go away.
14:09There are these cows, you see.
14:12And I'm not good with cows.
14:16They always chase me.
14:18I can tell when they're going to do it by the way they look at me a bit sideways.
14:23Yes, well, there's nothing more we can do tonight, so you get yourself home.
14:30Thank you, sir.
14:32Michaela and Lottie were with us when the fire was started.
14:36If it wasn't the Robsons, who was it?
14:39And what did we see?
14:41No idea.
14:43But whatever it is, it's still out there.
14:46We're here.
14:55Right.
14:56Yes.
14:57Here we are.
14:59Our first day.
15:07You'll make lots of new friends, I promise.
15:10Look at Humphrey.
15:12When he moved here, he didn't know anyone either, and now he's got lots of friends.
15:15It's true.
15:18We'll be fine.
15:28You know what, Rosie?
15:30Whenever I get a little bit scared of new situations,
15:34I always think of the advice my nanny bird gave me when she dropped me off for my first term at St. Agnes.
15:39She said,
15:41Don't hump it.
15:42What you need to do is stand up tall, back straight, head held up high, and put your best foot forward.
15:49If that doesn't work, try bribery.
15:52The most popular girl at my first day of school.
15:55Had a bag of sweets.
15:56Yeah.
15:57Her name's not getting rich pop��'.
15:58You expect her to come all over the way?
15:59She said,
16:18Oh, I've seen that look before.
16:45You had the same look on your face after snogging Max Dale at Young Farmers.
16:50Bloody hell. That's a blast from the past.
16:53Well, you should text him. He saw holding a candle for you since you dumped him.
16:57He was getting a bit clingy. So you seeing someone now?
17:00No. You want me to message Max? No, thank you.
17:04Any news on the fire last night? Not yet. Let's see what today brings.
17:10I never thought I'd feel sorry for George, Alice.
17:14Anyway, let me know if you change your mind.
17:18About Max.
17:32What's this?
17:34Well, I'm trying to work out where our bloke was running last night and if we know where he was heading, he might give us a clue.
17:43That's an excellent theory, Kelby. Well done.
17:46Thank you, sir. Oh, and I found this on the internet. The corn man.
17:55Ah. Thank you, Kelby.
17:58When the corn man comes, lock crop and cattle away. When the corn man comes, bad luck is coming your way.
18:08Hmm.
18:10Yeah, it was on the website. See, I just saw a shadow running across the field. But Esther said that you saw him properly.
18:20Yes. Yes, we did.
18:23Weren't you frightened?
18:25Um, not frightened, Kelby. More, um, curious. To be honest, I was more intrigued that a man supposedly made of corn felt comfortable setting a fire.
18:36Morning. Morning.
18:38Do you know about this corn man, Margot?
18:41He's what we used to scare each other with, is kids playing out in the fields and someone would shout,
18:47I've seen the corn man! And we'd all start running!
18:49Did you ever see him for real?
18:52Well, a couple of times we thought we had, but it turned out to be a scarecrow or something.
18:56Um, anything back from the lab, Margot?
19:01Oh, not yet.
19:03Morning.
19:04Morning.
19:06How was your night?
19:08Working.
19:09We had a late call out.
19:11Ah, make up for it tonight though, can't ya?
19:15Right.
19:17Let's take a look at what we know.
19:20Last night, Stella Ellis was assaulted at Buckford Farm by a masked figure who broke in, it seems, with the intention to sabotage the Ellis' business.
19:30And we think she disturbed her attacker as he was opening the valve to the milk tank.
19:35It was a white mess.
19:36Just like George Ellis to be crying over spilt milk.
19:40That man has always had a habit of rubbing people up the wrong way.
19:45And that poor girl of his stuck his nose in there, didn't he?
19:50All right, Margot.
19:51After the first incident, our perpetrator then returned later the same night to set fire to the Ellis' hay.
19:59Now, what is important here is that the milk and the hay were both ready to go to buyers and provide much needed cash to the Ellis'.
20:06Which suggests this was targeted. Designed to cause the maximum damage to the farm.
20:11Yes. So, who has a motive?
20:15Well, we know the Ellis' have been campaigning against the Robsons next door erecting wind turbines on their land.
20:21That Lottie Robson ain't much better. Thank you, Margot.
20:24Now, they claim they were at Kitty J's last night when the incident took place, so we should check that first.
20:29We'll do, sir.
20:30The events have to be linked, with this corn man having appeared at both.
20:35As Esther and I were with Lottie and Michaela Robinson when the fire was started, it's unlikely that they were involved in the emptying of the milk tank.
20:43Then, there is this.
20:47Corn doll, which fell from the rafters of George Ellis' barn.
20:51Legend has it, if it falls, bad luck will follow.
20:56When the corn man comes, lock crop and cattle away.
21:00When the corn man comes, bad luck will come your way.
21:04Yes, thank you, Kelby.
21:05But the point is, are the things that happened last night simply bad luck delivered in person by a mystical being known as the corn man?
21:11No.
21:12Or axe carried out by someone who was trying to put the Ellis' out of business?
21:18So, who has a grudge or a score to settle with the Ellis'?
21:22I heard George Ellis sacked his farm hand a while back.
21:27Bloke called Rhys Tomlinson.
21:28Then we should talk to him.
21:30If they've got a grievance, they might have a motive.
21:32Good.
21:33Kelby, when you're finished at Kitty Jays, find this farm hand, see what he has to say for himself.
21:37Sir.
21:38It could be someone who wanted to stop him blocking the wind turbines.
21:41Also a good point.
21:42They've got a public meeting about the turbines at the community hall later.
21:47I've got a leaflet through me door.
21:48Yes, wouldn't hurt to pop in.
21:50If someone has a grudge against the Ellis' then they're likely to be there too.
21:56Poor Stella.
21:57Her and Mickey were besotted with each other, neither each other's throats.
22:00It's all the old man's fault, that is a miserable old git.
22:03What do you mean?
22:04Well, he threatened to disown her and give her nothing if she's stuck on Michaela.
22:08And it worked.
22:09Okay, er, so when did you stop working for George?
22:14He gave me the sack three weeks back.
22:16Hey, there's no love lost there, I can tell you that much.
22:18You can't tell that man anything.
22:19I tried to help him turn more of a profit, modernise a little bit, but it's his way or the highway.
22:24Turned out to be the highway.
22:26Nice wheels.
22:29Oh, she's a booty.
22:31She flies like muck off a shovel and still has plenty of storage in the back.
22:34Right, okay.
22:37Nice.
22:38You know they nearly sold up, don't you?
22:41The Ellis'?
22:42Yeah, a couple of months back.
22:44See, I don't know the ins and outs of it, but I heard whoever it was said something old George didn't like, so he pulled the rug out.
22:49I remember him and Stella screaming at each other about it.
22:52Sounds like he's got a bit of a habit of upsetting people.
22:55You don't know the half of him, mate.
22:57And Rosie did this all by herself?
23:14You cheeky madam.
23:16Though I suppose after the second glass of wine I did get a little bit more abstract.
23:23That corporate catering job we quoted on yesterday just came in.
23:30All that hard work paid off.
23:32Yes, creating more hard work.
23:34Well, you've got to make hay while the sun shines, darling.
23:37Talking of which, I've added a skydive to my bucket list.
23:41You go, girl. Please tell me that's a joke.
23:44I've already got eleven sponsors.
23:46Mum?
23:47When's the catering job?
23:49Er, next Friday, eleven till four.
23:52I can help.
23:53You've got college.
23:55I'll sort it.
23:56Where are you going?
23:58All things to do, darling. People to see.
24:00Well, don't you think we should talk about this skydive?
24:02I thought we already had.
24:04Honestly, Mrs L, you're a legend.
24:07Who's that, darling?
24:08I'm a legend.
24:10Oh.
24:14Archie.
24:15Humphrey, good afternoon.
24:16Esther.
24:17Why?
24:18So are you for or against?
24:20Wind turbines.
24:21Oh, no, no, no. I'm just, er, did I bring some wine?
24:23Oh, no, no, no. I'm just, er, did I bring some wine?
24:27Ah, for a function.
24:28Later.
24:29Better go on or I think it's starting.
24:30Er, yeah, me too.
24:31Right.
24:32Er, me too.
24:33Right.
24:34Now, make sure you add your name to the petition.
24:35Oh, no, no, no.
24:36Oh, no, no, no. I'm just, er, did I bring some wine?
24:37Ah, for a function.
24:38Later.
24:39Better go on or I think it's starting.
24:40Er, yeah, me too.
24:41Right.
24:42Now, make sure you add your name to the petition. We're all working together. It's our countryside.
24:49Maybe wind turbines today. Who knows what it'll be tomorrow.
24:52Yeah, do you write your name?
24:53Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm just, er, delivering some wine.
24:55Ah, for a function.
24:56Later.
24:57Better go on or I think it's starting.
24:59Er, yeah, me too.
25:00Right.
25:01Now, make sure you add your name to the petition.
25:04We're all working together. It's our countryside.
25:07Maybe wind turbines today. Who knows what it'll be tomorrow.
25:10Yeah, do you write your name?
25:12It's definitely getting people whipped up.
25:15Might well want to get a turbine in here.
25:17And of hot air in here.
25:19You got some nerve.
25:20Thought it was a public meeting.
25:21I wasn't talking to you.
25:22Oh, I'm sorry. I was confused. I thought he did all you're talking for, yeah.
25:26Yeah, yeah, fine.
25:29All right.
25:30Sorry. Yeah, fine.
25:31You see what you've done?
25:34You're not welcome here.
25:36I thought you lot might want to say something to my face instead of skulking about.
25:40I know what you've been doing and you won't shut me up.
25:42I don't want to shut you up, George.
25:45It's a fair enough argument.
25:47We're all farmers.
25:49We've all had to learn to move with the times.
25:51Always been a debate about it.
25:53Nothing wrong with that, but you're making this personal.
25:56About my family.
25:57No, shut up, woman.
25:58Here we go. This is it.
26:00Isn't it, George?
26:01I'm a woman and I should know my place.
26:04There's a lot to be said for that.
26:05You are a bitter, spiteful old man, George Ellis.
26:10And this is nothing to do with wind turbines.
26:15This is about you and your grudge against me and mine.
26:21And everyone in here knows why.
26:24What you did to these two girls was vile.
26:30And like everything else that comes out of your mouth, a hundred years out of date, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.
26:38And you lot, you should be ashamed of yourselves for listening to him.
26:46Come on, Mickey.
26:48Let's get out of here.
26:50Good riddance to the perrier!
26:53So much for the peace and quiet of the countryside.
26:58They look angry.
26:59Yeah.
27:00Yeah.
27:01Oh!
27:02My mum wanted me to be a farmer.
27:03Oh!
27:04So why didn't you?
27:05Well, two reasons really.
27:06First off, the cow thing.
27:07Just the way they look at you.
27:08Like they know something.
27:09It's a funny thing to be frightened of.
27:12There was an advert when I was little.
27:16Something about the milk was so good, the cows want it back.
27:21I think that's how it will be.
27:23How it will look at you.
27:24You know what you think?
27:27What a funny thing to be frightened of.
27:29Well, there was an advert when I was little.
27:32Something about the milk was so good, the cows want it back.
27:36I think that's how it all started.
27:40Oh, wait. You said two reasons.
27:42What was the other one?
27:44Oh, we didn't have a farm.
27:46Ah.
27:48I...
27:55I just need to take this.
27:57I'll meet you in there.
27:58We're good.
28:05Hiya.
28:06Hey.
28:08You OK?
28:09I'm sorry about earlier.
28:10I was just in work mode and didn't quite know how to handle that.
28:14Well, we could always tell people.
28:17We make life a lot easier.
28:20What happened to just living in the moment
28:22instead of trying to put a label on things?
28:25I'm all for living in the moment,
28:27but I'm not sure we should have to hide while we do it.
28:31We're not 12 years old.
28:32It's not that simple.
28:34Why not?
28:35I haven't told Zoe yet.
28:38Great.
28:40Then start with her.
28:41We'll do it together.
28:44Oh, sorry.
28:45I've got the DI trying to get through.
28:47Can we do this later?
28:48Yeah.
28:49Just as long as we do.
28:51Horace.
28:53Bye.
28:54And we're ready to go.
29:01Right.
29:04Margot.
29:09Oh, sir.
29:11I checked out Kitty J's
29:13and they confirmed that
29:15Lottie and Michaela Robson were there.
29:18They can't say exactly when they left,
29:20but it was definitely after half six.
29:22As we expected.
29:26Bad news.
29:29There were no prints found on the milk tank.
29:32And despite the fire investigation confirming an accelerant was used,
29:36there were no prints found on the jerry can either.
29:38None at all.
29:40Well, apart from the exclusions.
29:43George and Stella's prints were on both,
29:45but they would be.
29:46They both used the milk tank
29:47and the jerry can was taken from the farm.
29:49And any good news?
29:51Yeah.
29:52Excellent.
29:53I won £25 at bingo last night.
29:56Oh.
29:57Right.
29:58Yeah.
29:59Good.
30:09Anything from the farm handset by the Ellis's?
30:12He likes Stella, hates George,
30:15and swears he hasn't been back to their farm since he was fired.
30:19He has got a cast-iron alibi for last night, though.
30:23He was working behind the bar at the Crooked Billet in Paul Marron.
30:28One thing he did say is that the Ellis's had someone interested in buying their farm a few months back.
30:36He said there were a couple of viewings,
30:38but the buyer pulled out when George Ellis insulted him.
30:42Oh, he's such a charmer.
30:44Have you spoken to the buyer?
30:45From what the agent said, he moved on and bought another parcel of land,
30:51so they doubt he was still interested in Ellis's.
30:54So, we have something of a dichotomy.
30:58We know because of the things targeted, the milk and then the hay,
31:02that our culprit knows the Ellis's well enough to know what would hurt them the most.
31:07So it has to be someone close to them.
31:10But if it's not the Robsons, nor our disgruntled farmhand,
31:14then who is our corn man?
31:18Sir, you asked me to remind you when it was quarter past.
31:24Yes!
31:25Of course!
31:27Call me if anything else comes through!
31:29Ah, we made it!
31:41Just, in heaven's for Esther.
31:44Can you see her?
31:47Ah, well, there she is.
31:52Hey!
31:55Is she your daughter?
31:56Uh, she's, uh, Rosie.
32:00Looks like they've made friends.
32:02This is Libby.
32:03Can you say bye?
32:04Bye-bye, Rosie.
32:05Bye, Libby.
32:06Oh.
32:06Oh, it looks like someone's popular.
32:10So, how was it?
32:11OK.
32:13Mm!
32:14Calls for some celebratory ice cream, I think.
32:17Come on, then.
32:21So, what was the best bit?
32:23Nice teachers.
32:24So, tell us about your first day at school.
32:27My teacher's nice.
32:29They gave us homework already.
32:32Well, that was quick.
32:33What do you have to do?
32:34We have to write a story about what my parents and I do after school.
32:38Teachers tell they can write about something else, but...
32:40I want to write about you two.
32:41I was also going to write about Mrs. L living on the boat.
32:47And shall I include Sam on the duck, too?
32:50Most definitely.
32:51And seeing as it's someone's birthday next week,
32:54we could do a party if you wanted.
32:55With your new friends from school.
32:57Looks like we've got some organising to do.
33:19Bad news?
33:19No, just work.
33:24Do you want anything?
33:26A beer, some chocolate from my stash?
33:28All right.
33:29Here have you killed, and where did you bury him?
33:31It's not that bad.
33:33That's not as comforting as you think it is.
33:35OK, so...
33:38You know how you've brought me up to be a strong, independent woman
33:41who makes her own decisions?
33:46What is it that you would say?
33:48Be the driver, not the passenger?
33:50I've never said that.
33:52No, but you say stuff like that about being in control,
33:55not letting anyone else make decisions for you.
33:57Is this going to take long? I've got work in the morning.
33:59I don't want you to be mad with me.
34:00I won't.
34:03You promise?
34:03Are you pregnant, had another tattoo, or pierced anything?
34:07No.
34:07Then I promise.
34:12I left college.
34:13You promise not to get mad?
34:14I love the work that I do at the Ten Mile Kitchen,
34:17and it's really good, and Martha's teaching me
34:19way more than what I'm learning at college.
34:21I'm 18 now, and it was getting so complicated
34:23having to keep changing my days around
34:24so that I can do my job properly.
34:26Yes, but...
34:26And what's the point of going to college in the first place
34:28to get a job, right?
34:28I've already got one, a good one, that I'm really good at,
34:30but I can't do properly because I keep having to take days off
34:33to go to college.
34:33OK?
34:35What?
34:36If I was furious and asked you to go back to college immediately,
34:40or else, would you?
34:57I suppose so.
35:01And you'd be miserable, right?
35:03Yeah.
35:05And who wants a miserable child?
35:08So you don't mind?
35:09Oh, I mind very much.
35:10I think it's a mistake.
35:11I think you'd do better to get some qualifications under your belt.
35:13But you're right.
35:17I have always told you to be in control of your own life,
35:20so go ahead and prove me wrong.
35:24You're amazing.
35:25Yes, I am.
35:28So I'll have that beer and chocolate now, please.
35:32Yes!
35:34I've hit my fundraising target for the skydive.
35:44Yes! I've hit my fundraising target for the skydive!
35:59Oh, people are so generous.
36:01Well, it's for a good cause.
36:03I just wish it was for a sponsored walk rather than jumping out of a plane.
36:08Who dares wins, darling?
36:10Well, I think I'll go and, um, send messages.
36:13Thank people.
36:15Bye.
36:17Bye.
36:18Ho-ho-ho! Someone's in a party, moot!
36:23Sorry.
36:25All right, so what's going on here?
36:27I'm just seeing what I've got for the party.
36:29Pirates? Good choice.
36:31What's Rosie's idea?
36:33Do you think we should get an entertainer?
36:34A black beard juggling cannibals or a long john silver on a unicycle?
36:39I just don't want to do the wrong thing.
36:42It's a birthday party. How can it be wrong?
36:44Oh, I don't know. Is it... Is this too much?
36:48You know, if she was ours, I would know what was right, but what about when she goes home?
36:53What if her mum can't afford to do things like this?
36:55Or she prefers to celebrate her birthday in a different way?
36:59And what are we going to do about presents?
37:01Well, stop.
37:03Stop.
37:05You're overthinking this. It's a child's birthday party.
37:09Okay?
37:09All that we can do while she is with us is what we think is right.
37:18And that's what Hannah said, wasn't it?
37:21Be ourselves.
37:23Okay, so if you want Rosie to have a birthday party with a dancing band or performing elephant...
37:28Then that's what she should have.
37:35We have no way of knowing what the future holds.
37:40Or if things will change, or when, or how.
37:44So let's just do now.
37:46I don't want things to change.
37:48There's nothing to say they will.
37:50We should enjoy it.
37:54Not get ourselves in a state about it, okay?
37:57Okay.
38:00But should we get an entertainer or not?
38:03Maybe there's some middle ground.
38:05Like what?
38:06I could do some of my magic.
38:07See if I can get pirate-themed disco.
38:09It's harsh.
38:11Oh.
38:20Mrs. Al!
38:26Mrs. Al!
38:31Rosie's got a little something for you.
38:34Oh, golly.
38:36What's this?
38:43Don't you like it?
38:45I see.
38:46It's perfect.
38:47It really is.
38:48I, I, I, I just, just...
38:51Mum?
38:53No, I'm fine.
38:54Just last-minute jitters, I think.
38:56I mean, the, the nearer it gets,
38:59the more real.
39:01I always start thinking I haven't thought this through properly.
39:04Well, don't do it then.
39:05Don't be silly.
39:06I have to do it.
39:07I can't let all those people down.
39:08All that money they've promised.
39:09I don't understand.
39:11I'll do it with you if you're scared.
39:14Bless you.
39:16I think you might be a little too young.
39:18All right, then.
39:19Humphrey will do it.
39:20And I'll put it in my story.
39:21And I'll definitely have the best in the class.
39:25Well, um...
39:26Why?
39:27Um...
39:28Yeah, sure.
39:32Sure.
39:32Where's that footpath?
39:50So, do we have to sponsor you and all?
40:09Or does what we gave to Anne still count?
40:13Whatever you think is best, Margot.
40:15Good.
40:15Though it is for a good cause.
40:16Yeah.
40:18I've done a bit more.
40:19It'll be worth every penny.
40:21Thank you, Esther.
40:22I have to say, I was somewhat railroaded into it, but I do think it's quite exciting.
40:28Ellis' farm.
40:30Yeah, okay.
40:30We'll get someone to you as soon as we can.
40:32All right?
40:36Someone's let all the Ellis' cattle out onto the 8386.
40:39It's coincidences.
40:45Are they all back?
40:46Well, that's not really the point.
40:47Someone being injured, we'll have vet spills to worry about.
40:51We found this.
40:53Tucked behind the bolt to the gate.
40:56Cool.
40:57I'm done.
40:59That's it for me.
41:00I can't take a year of this.
41:01No, you can't think like that, Dad.
41:03Things could pick up.
41:04How?
41:04The milk's lost.
41:05The hay's gone up in flames.
41:07There's nothing coming in.
41:08There's plenty going out.
41:09Got to get the cattle back in, pay the vets.
41:11There's no end to it.
41:14I've had enough.
41:17You were right.
41:18We should have sold her.
41:23Sorry.
41:23No.
41:25No, not at all.
41:26It's perfectly understandable.
41:27This, um, offer you had for the farm,
41:30Rhys Tomlinson mentioned it.
41:32What happened?
41:34Truth.
41:36I don't think Dad was serious about selling.
41:39He'll never leave this place unless he had no other choice.
41:42Carry him out in a box.
41:53Hi, Margot.
41:57OK, thanks.
41:58Lottie and Michaela Robson were both in Torquay visiting family,
42:04so it can't have been them.
42:05Right.
42:07Police!
42:08Coming through!
42:10Go to your right.
42:13Step aside.
42:15Yeah.
42:17Move.
42:18I say step aside, please.
42:21What are you looking at?
42:22No, no, no.
42:23I'm not scared of you.
42:24Well done, Kelby.
42:31I'm proud of you.
42:32Mind over matter.
42:33Yeah.
42:34Are they still looking at me?
42:37Nah.
42:38You're fine.
42:39I need to show you something.
42:40Come with me.
42:41This is an old gatekeeper's cottage,
42:49right on the boundary of the Ellis and Robson farms.
42:53And it's on the Robson side,
42:55but the Ellis farm is just over that hedge.
42:57Yeah, see, it's supposed to be empty.
43:14Ah.
43:17Right.
43:18It certainly looks like someone's been here recently.
43:24And, uh, there's a picture up there.
43:25This must be where Michaela and Stella used to meet.
43:33Look.
43:37And that's not all.
43:41I think you need to see in here.
43:42Ah.
44:03Our mysterious corn man.
44:06Yeah, all right, thanks.
44:11OK, the only fingerprints found in the gamekeeper's cottage
44:15were Michaela Robson, Stella Ellis and Kelby's.
44:19Sorry, I think I put my gloves on too late.
44:23Well, it's where Stella and Michaela used to meet,
44:25so we'd expect theirs to be there.
44:26So unless Kelby's the corn man, it doesn't help us.
44:31What about our farmhand?
44:32Oh, er, so I spoke to the manager of the Crooked Billet.
44:38Rhys Tomlinson worked a 6-11 shift that night.
44:42Two other members of staff confirmed he never left the pub
44:45until his shift finished.
44:47So he's not our man?
44:48Doesn't look like it.
44:50But then that leaves us with nowhere to go.
44:53We know it can't be the Robsons.
44:55I mean, we were with them, actually with them, for the fire.
44:58And they were out of town when the cattle were let out of the fields.
45:02So we're back to where we started?
45:04I mean, I could stake out the cottage,
45:06see if he comes back for his costume.
45:08You could do that, but do you think someone's going to come back now?
45:11I think it'd be a waste of time, Kelps.
45:12Mum got me this.
45:14Oh, it's lovely.
45:17Sorry.
45:18No, it's completely fine.
45:20Esther.
45:21When we first went to see Michaela Robson,
45:25she said you'd missed her birthday party?
45:28Yeah.
45:29When was it?
45:30Er, last month, when me and Zoe were away.
45:33The 18th, I think.
45:36And, if I recall correctly,
45:39she showed you a bracelet,
45:41a birthday gift from her mum.
45:43That's right.
45:43Then how can she be wearing the bracelet given to her
45:48as a birthday present by her mother less than a month ago
45:52in this photograph of her and Stella Ellis
45:56seemingly happy and in love a year ago?
46:01She can't.
46:03Unless...
46:04It was taken more recently.
46:06Of course!
46:09It's the only thing that makes sense.
46:12What is it?
46:13I don't know why it didn't ring an alarm bell before.
46:15It's not just about the motive.
46:18It's also about the opportunity.
46:21The Robsons have cast iron alibis
46:24for all three events at the Ellis' farm.
46:27So it couldn't have been them.
46:28Agreed.
46:29So who else had the opportunity?
46:33The Ellis' themselves?
46:35Or, more accurately, Stella Ellis?
46:38Because that's what this has been about all this time.
46:41I think this photograph proves
46:44that despite everything we've heard to the contrary,
46:47Stella and Michaela are still very much together.
46:52I think they manufactured their breakup
46:54to appease Stella's father.
46:56The truth is,
46:58they never stop seeing each other.
47:01You've got some nerve coming in here.
47:02I thought it was a public meeting.
47:04I thought it was a public meeting.
47:08That changes everything.
47:12Yes, it does.
47:13Because rather than being at each other's throats,
47:15now they actually had a common purpose.
47:18Now, we know Stella was keen to sell the farm.
47:20You were right.
47:22We should have sold up.
47:23So that was their plan all along?
47:29To force the old man to sell the farm?
47:32To exploit his superstitions
47:34and put him under as much financial pressure as they could.
47:37Stella couldn't just walk away.
47:40Not once her father had told her
47:41that running the farm alone would probably kill him.
47:43So I think she convinced him to sell.
47:45But he changed his mind
47:46and put a stop to it.
47:48And so Stella was trapped again.
47:52He'll never sell it now.
47:54Yes, he will.
47:56We'll make him.
47:58So they knew the only way they could be together,
48:01really together,
48:02is if they could get George to sell the farm.
48:05Stella would get her share
48:07and end up on a beach somewhere with Michaela.
48:09And she wouldn't feel bad about leaving her dad.
48:12He'd be retired with his half of the money to live off.
48:14Crafty cows.
48:15Next, they had to convince George
48:18that his bad luck was only just beginning.
48:21Do your stuff.
48:23We could use a bit of luck.
48:27Hold it steady, girl.
48:29Who's thought you'd be the death of me?
48:39So, Stella turned on the valve of the milk tank herself.
48:44Yes.
48:45We can place Michaela at Kitty J's until 6.30.
48:54Giving her just enough time.
48:56Not to sabotage the milk tank,
48:58but to be our corn man.
49:01And all she had to do was to be seen
49:02before disappearing again.
49:06And now, the danger
49:08that the Robsons would come under suspicion.
49:10So, Stella gave them the perfect alibi.
49:21Esther, there's a fire at the Ellis'.
49:24It's quicker over the field.
49:26Mum, are you coming?
49:35Bye, stay back, everyone.
49:36Fire brigade's on their way.
49:38Esther, look.
49:39Having lost you and Kelby,
49:50Stella came back here,
49:51changed,
49:52and then returned to the fire
49:53with her father
49:54as a supposed victim.
49:56But knowing that she'd virtually
49:57destroyed their business.
49:58Exactly that.
49:58And by using the corn man,
50:00they were ensuring George
50:01saw nothing but a long year of bad luck
50:03spreading out before him.
50:04Forcing him to sell up.
50:07I'm done.
50:09That's it for me.
50:11I can't do a year of this.
50:13And the cows?
50:18Knowing that Michaela and her mum
50:19were away
50:19and therefore had a cast-iron alibi,
50:22it was easy enough
50:22for her to open a gate.
50:29I can't believe Michaela
50:31would lie to my face like that.
50:32Well, how Stella could do this
50:34to her own father.
50:35Well,
50:36love is a very powerful thing.
50:39It leads people to do
50:40lots of things
50:41that they wouldn't usually contemplate.
50:43We should bring them in.
50:44We should bring them in.
50:46We should bring them in.
50:48Let's go.
50:49We should bring them in.
50:51Let's go.
50:53We should bring them in.
50:54If you turn on.
50:55Just hold your head, all right?
51:22I thought we were friends.
51:23We are.
51:24He just didn't give us any other choice.
51:27I don't believe that.
51:28You're not me.
51:30So don't you tell me what's true and what isn't.
51:33It was this or Stella staying with it and putting up with all that venom.
51:36Should I tell you the things he said to her?
51:39No.
51:39This was the only way we could see of us ever being together.
51:43So we took it.
51:44And we don't need your approval for that.
51:46Or anyone else's.
51:48Can't have been easy.
52:03Maybe she's right.
52:05Maybe he didn't give them any other choice.
52:07You've always got a choice.
52:09If you don't like where you are, then it's your fault.
52:12No one else's.
52:13Hey!
52:31Is everything okay?
52:43Not really.
52:46Like, I don't want to do this anymore.
52:49I don't want to do this anymore.
52:50I don't want to do this anymore.
52:51Do what?
52:54Us.
52:58We're...
52:58Hey!
53:00Can't we at least talk about it?
53:03Wait, as...
53:04As...
53:04Welcome to you, Sky The Limit Skydiving Center.
53:14We're getting ready for your job today.
53:16Please make sure you're from here.
53:18Okay.
53:20Yes, you're both all set.
53:22Come join us by the aircraft when you're ready.
53:27All right, Anne.
53:29If you don't feel you can do this, please just say the word.
53:32Do you know what?
53:33I've never run away from anything in my life.
53:38I have no intention of starting now.
53:40Excellent.
53:44Bye!
53:45Good luck!
53:47Thank you, darling.
53:48Feeling okay?
53:49Fine.
53:50Thank you for doing this with her.
53:53Okay?
53:54I know you're excited, but please be careful.
53:57When you went paragliding, you ejected yourself and landed in a tree?
54:01Ah, yes, but I'll have Anne with me,
54:02and I'll get the look if I'm doing something I shouldn't be.
54:06What look?
54:07Oh, that one.
54:08Exactly.
54:09So what could possibly go wrong?
54:11Please don't say that.
54:12No.
54:12Okay.
54:13Come on.
54:13They're waving at us.
54:15How are you feeling, Mum?
54:17Well, I could have chosen a slightly less drastic way of celebrating the all-clear,
54:21but strangely excited, if a little nervous.
54:26Excellent.
54:27Shall we?
54:27Good luck!
54:31Good luck!
54:43Nothing to worry about.
54:46Well, as long as it's not like my skiing trip in 83 when I came back with both my legs
54:52in plaster casts, we'll be fine.
54:54I'm sorry.
54:56Did you say you've broken both your legs?
54:59You didn't put that on your form?
55:00Well, it said current medical conditions.
55:02That was 40 years ago.
55:10What happened?
55:12They told me I didn't qualify for the insurance because I'd broken my legs 40 years ago.
55:17Oh!
55:18Oh!
55:19I feel terrible letting all those people down.
55:23It's not your fault.
55:24Wait.
55:26What about Humphrey?
55:50They should have been back 30 minutes ago.
55:54Oh!
55:58It's Humphrey!
56:00Where are you?
56:02Ah!
56:03Well,
56:05slight issue.
56:07Ah, yes.
56:08I sort of
56:09leaned back,
56:11headbutted my instructor.
56:13He's coming round now, though, which is good.
56:16Um,
56:17but you might need to come and fetch me.
56:20Where from?
56:22Ah!
56:22Ah!
56:23I think you might need a ladder.
56:33That Josh Woods is going to be the death of me.
56:36Wait, son, it's up to...
56:37I'm sorry.
56:37I have already.
56:38Oh, God.
56:52I'm sorry.
56:54I want to know.
56:55I'm sorry.
56:55I'm sorry.
56:55I'm sorry.
56:55I don't think you're going to be the death of me.
56:57I'm sorry.
56:57It's up to you.
56:57I'm sorry.
56:58I'm sorry.
56:58I feel like you're going to be the death of me.
57:00I'm sorry.
57:00Oh, yeah.
