In the regrettable absence
of my older brother Lucian,

it falls to me
to say a few words

about our dear late father,
Henry Ignatius Shirewell,

a man who will be much missed
by those who knew him,

and whose last whose

I suggest you go easy

Don't want to say

Don't call me that,

Well, I would,
but you're in my place.

You've been

I think we should
make a start.

Please.

Oh, thank you.

[Rooster crows]

You should have
been there, Gideon.

I've never been a hypocrite.
I'm not going to start now.

Tenants of the estate are
expected to pay their respects.

Got none to pay.

Do you think old man Shirewell
would have come to my funeral?

Where's Caleb?
We got fencing to do.

No idea.
He wasn't at the funeral.

You all thought you could
prevent me from inheriting,

but I'm afraid the little plan
you cooked up with father

isn't legally binding.

Well, the trust was
set up by you, Mr. Inkerman,

and it was agreed I would
run the estate in perpetuity.

[Chuckles] My father signed
the document in front of you.

On the understanding
that this was agreed by you all.

This letter of wishes
confirms my right

to inherit the whole shebang
unless I choose to decline,

which, of course, I won't.

In simple terms,

the traditional order
of inheritance

cannot be altered without
the consent of all trustees.

And now Stourwick is mine
to do with as I see fit,

I've made a decision.

The Shirewells' tenure
ends with me.

What does that mean
exactly?

Well, it means the estate
will become home

to a free-thinking
artists' community.
[Laughs]

Long Cross Farm will be
converted into a solar park.

But the Blundells have
farmed here for generations.

Oh, it's not
just them, Ursula.

The dower house will be
an artist's retreat

and the chapel will be converted
into a gallery

and shrine for my work.

You can't do that.
It's consecrated.

Well, I'll deconsecrate it.

Don't worry.

There's still
a chapel in Toulouse.

That's where you'll be
moving to, by the way.

And Francis and Davina,

you'll be moving
to the flat in Marylebone.

Double espresso. You look

Thank you, sir.

Phone's been ringing
all morning.

Anything I should
know about?

Ah, I've had a call about
the late Henry Shirewell.

I read his obituary.
Wasn't he buried yesterday?

Yeah, he was, but his family
now suspect foul play.

A doctor must have signed
the death certificate.

Yeah, he did.

His GP, and in it, he states
he died of natural causes.

So what's this got
to do with us?

Well, a document
has since been discovered,

allegedly written
by Henry Shirewell,

in which he claims that his life
is in imminent danger.

This prompted his family to
request further investigation,

which has now been authorized.

What do we know
about them?

The Shirewells are
a prominent local family.

They've lived on
the Stourwick Estate

since the 16th century.

Henry Shirewell's wife,
Clarissa,

had a history of mental
instability and alcoholism

and died
after a tragic fall.

When was this?

Nearly 40 years ago.

Well, what do we know about
the Shirewell children?

Two sons and a daughter who
both still live on the estate,

and the eldest son,
Lucian Shirewell,

is an acclaimed
ceramicist.

His work is controversial,
but highly regarded.

Not exactly Clarice Cliff,
is he?

No.
No, I guess not.

♪

Yeah, it's really important
that we speak to him.

I appreciate that.
Thanks.

Henry Shirewell's doctor

is out at surgery
at the moment,

but they're trying
to track him down.

Good.

We need to know if he might
have missed something.

Inspector Barnaby?

Ursula Shirewell.

Thank you so much for coming.

Please, follow me.

♪

When did you find this note?
Ms. Shirewell?

After the funeral.

It was the first time I was able
to face going into his room.

Where was it?

Inside his bedside table.

How was your father's
mental state

in the days
before he died?

Better than
it had been in ages.

He seemed to have
more energy than usual.

We had hope he'd rally.

Which is why I allowed
Lucian to see him.

Was that unusual?

Sadly, yes.

They'd been estranged
for many years.

And Ursula
was easily taken in.

I wanted to give them
time alone

in the hope of
some kind of reconciliation.

But when she went back
to give him his medication,

Lucian is gone,
our father is dead.

It's not
rocket science.

So why wait until now
to raise your concerns?

Because there was
no evidence.

But the note
changes everything.

♪

Ah, DCI Barnaby,
Causton police.

And you are?

Caleb Blundell.
I help Lucian out sometimes.

And where
might I find him?

[Record playing]

Thank you.

♪

DCI Barnaby,
Causton Police.

[Sighs]

Drink?

[Pouring]

I'm guessing they told you
I killed my father?

And did you?

Wanted him dead as long
as I can remember...

but no, I did not
have that pleasure.

Your sister has said that you
and your father were estranged.

May I ask why?

He destroyed my mother's life
and set out to destroy mine.

I had to cut him out
in order to survive.

So what made you go
and see him on the day he died?

I needed to tell him
how much I despised him

before it was too late.

You seem very calm,

considering your siblings
are accusing you of murder.

They conspired
with our father

to deprive me
of my birthright.

Accusing me of patricide
is the logical next step.

What do you mean?

Their attempt to disinherit
me from Stourwick failed.

Turns out they can't do that
legally without my permission.

But if I was serving
a life sentence for murder,

then they would get
what they wanted.

But they'll never
be able to prove it,

because it's not true.

Henry Shirewell's doctor
finally got back to me.

In his opinion, there's
no evidence of foul play.

Ursula Shirewell
was alarmed when she found

that his pillows
and bedding were in disarray,

but apparently, a patient
can experience a sudden surge

of energy just before they die,
which would seem remarkable

if they've been immobile
for some time.

Lucian Shirewell
denies any involvement.

He claims he's being set up
by his siblings

to stop him inheriting --
their word against his.

There is someone
outside of the family

that helps out
at the house part time,

and they were working
the day that he died --

a Sorrel Watkins.

Let's talk to her.

You've not messaged me.

I just need to know
that you've got my back.

Why should I when
you don't have mine?

There've always been
other women.

You know the deal.

Jordana seems to think that
she's moving into the house,

that you're going
to be a family.

Well, that's never
going to happen.

Look, you've got the cottage
because I need you close to me.

I always will,
no matter who is in my life.

I've come too far
to give up on you now.

♪

What do
the police want?

I've answered too many questions
for one day.

Looking for
a Sorrel Watkins.

Her mother said
she might be here.

Yeah, in the snug,
just through there.

Thanks.

[Sighs]

[Gasps]

♪

We need to ask you
a few questions

about Henry Shirewell.

I just help out
with the cleaning.

I had nothing to do
with his care.

Well, he left a note
intended to be discovered

after his death.

In it, he suggests that he
feared someone meant him harm.

Did he talk to you
about that?

Or maybe you saw
him writing?

Erm, you're absolutely sure
he wrote it?

Why do you ask?

Well, he just didn't seem
capable to me.

After the funeral, Ms. Shirewell
asked me to stay on.

She wanted help cleaning
her father's rooms.

I started in the bathroom
en suite to his bedroom

and heard someone come in.

Did you see who it was?

Davina Shirewell.

The door
wasn't quite closed.

What was she
doing there?

She got something
out of her bag

and put it
in the bedside drawer.

Did you
see what it was?

It looked like a letter,
but it wasn't my place to check.

Are you sure
about that?

I keep notes when
anything interesting happens.

Any particular reason?

I want to be a writer one day.

If I don't take notes,
I forget stuff.

Look, there it is.

Let me stay in the studio,
you know, just for one night.

Please, I really,
really don't feel safe here.

Well, maybe it's time
you found somewhere else.

I need you to
protect me, Lucian.

From what?

A dead bird,
a papier maché doll?

Someone's playing games.

What if they're not?

Please, Lucian.

You said
that you loved me,

that it felt different
this time.

I say a lot of things.
I never made you any promises.

What if I were
pregnant?

I wouldn't want to inflict
the life I've had

on another generation.

No. It ends with me.

Yes, I wrote the note,
and I don't regret it.

Even if you got the result
you wanted by deception?

The offense was real.

I was just
speeding things up a little.

What you believe is of
no consequence without evidence.

Well, then we must
exhume the body.

That would require
a coroner's instruction.

As yet,
we have no grounds.
So that's it?

You've already wasted enough
of our time, Mrs. Shirewell.

But --

Why on earth didn't you
tell me what you were up to?

Because you'd have
stopped me.

What did the police want?

Turns out the note
was not written by our father,

but by my wife.

Someone had to
do something.

All you've done is draw
negative attention our way.

Then what do you suggest?
We're running out of time.

We appeal the will
on the grounds

that Lucian is mentally
unstable, paranoid,

delusional, like our mother,
and therefore unfit to inherit.

But we have to do it
by the book.

So the family think
the old man was murdered?

Oh, they didn't say,
but they must be suspicious.

Which makes
Lucian prime suspect.

He never hid how much
he hated his old man,

but he'd never do
anything like that.

Well, you can't
know that for sure.

And what are you
even doing here, anyway?

I thought you were going
to tell them tonight.

I was, but...

I'm a coward.
I couldn't face hurting them.

You're hurting them
more by lying.

Your mum keeps asking me
what's wrong.

"You're his best mate
You must know."

And I do,

but it's got to
come from you.

Winter:
Boss is here.

What have we got?
Victim's
Jordana Linsbury,

Lucian Shirewell's
latest muse.

Who found her?

Gardener on his way
to work,

alerted
Francis Shirewell.

He called us
just after 8 a.m.

What are you thinking,
Fleur?

Tragic accident
or something more sinister?

It looks like she tried

to pull herself up on one
of the guy ropes

supporting the totem pole.

It came away and the pole fell,
striking her right temple.

What time did she die?

Somewhere between
11 p.m. and 2 a.m.

But I'm not sure
that's what killed her.

Then what?

The victim displays signs
of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Cherry red lips,
peripheral cyanosis,

retinal hemorrhages.

A tox report should
give us some answers.

Oh, and this was on
a table beside the bed.

♪

Check out the yurt.

If it is
carbon monoxide poisoning,

we need to
find the source.

Sir.

What can I do for you,
Mr. Shirewell?

Well, Lucian and Jordana
had a row yesterday afternoon.

Thought you
should know.

What was it about?

Well, it was too far away
to really hear,

but he left in a fury
a few minutes later.

What time was this?
Just after 1:00.

I didn't really know the girl,
but I still feel sorry for her.

Why is that?

Well, they all think

they're going to be
the one to change him.

Of course,
it invariably ends like this.

Well, not quite like this,
obviously.

And you think their argument
had something to do

with her death?

The man's a psycho --
borderline lunatic.

Not his fault,
I suppose.

Insanity runs in the family
on our mother's side.

But if there's one thing
he does care about,

it's his
own personal freedom,

and he will do anything --
and I mean anything --

to protect it.

♪

When bad things happen,
work is my only salvation.

My mother taught me
of the joy of creativity,

its power to take you from
the darkness into the light.

But Jordana's accident
is something

I can never
come to terms with.

We think it
could have been murder.

Why?

We thought maybe you could
help us with that.

My family didn't like her
living in the yard,

and they can be
pretty extreme,

but murder?

Even they
have their limits.

Did she have
any other enemies?

Sadie saw her
as a rival,

my former assistant and lover
of over 20 years.

So Miss Linsbury was just
one of your lovers?

I don't believe
in monogamy, Inspector,

but that doesn't diminish
the love I have for Sadie.

She just has difficulty

controlling her jealousy
at times.

Maybe she had
good reason.

Did Sadie know that
Ms. Linsbury was pregnant?

I've never wanted children,
Inspector,

and I told her
I never would.

A baby would be
a problem

to anyone who values
personal freedom above all else.

Where were you last night
between 11:00 and 2:00 a.m.,

Mr. Shirewell?

I was at the inn with Sadie.
She works there.

She knows
I keep irregular hours,

and she's not averse
to bending the rules.

You can check with her
if you like.

I will.
Thank you for your time.

[Exhales deeply]

This is an odd one,
sir.

Forensics reckon
that the stove in the yurt

hasn't been used
for months,

so there's no obvious source
of the carbon monoxide.

Well, let's keep looking.
Anything else?

Tech pulled these images
from Ms. Linsbury's phone.

More macabre artwork?
Or a warning of some kind?

Well, she told Ursula Shirewell
that she felt unsafe,

that she thought
someone was stalking her.

But why didn't she
call the police?

Apparently, Lucian Shirewell
told her not to.

He said it was just
someone playing games

and named Sadie Rowcroft
as chief suspect.

Anything to
back that up?

Caleb Blundell claims
he saw Ms. Rowcroft

close to the scene
at about 11:20 p.m.

He lives at the farm
and works part time for Lucian.

Well,
that fits the time frame,

but he didn't see
Ms. Linsbury's body.

Apparently not.

Lucian didn't deny
that he and Ms. Linsbury

had argued
earlier in the day.

He's adamant
he never wanted children.

Ms. Linsbury wasn't
happy about it,

which chimes with
Francis Shirewell's statement.

Well, perhaps
Ms. Rowcroft feared

that he'd change his mind
once the baby was born

and cut her out
of his life forever.

Never underestimate the
destructive power

of jealousy, Winter.

[Cellphone chimes]
Oh.

Fleur's got
the autopsy report --

says that it makes
interesting reading.

Okay, let's head over
to the lab,

and then you can pay a visit
to Sadie Rowcroft.

This case takes me
right back to Pablo.

Peruvian potter
with the hands of a god,

immortalized my breasts
in porcelain,

sold them to a Saudi prince
for a small fortune.

[Chuckles]

Truly magnificent.
I think you'll agree.

[Clears throat]

You said you had
an update for us?

The victim's blood contains
high levels

of both carbon monoxide
and hydrogen fluoride,

a gas produced
when certain clays and glazes

are fired in a kiln.

Lucian Shirewell said
there was a firing last night.

We need to know
what was in there.

Carbon monoxide
starves the body of oxygen.

At high enough concentrations,
the victim suffocates.

She managed to
make it outside.

By which time, the damage
had already been done.

Before she died,
she'd have experienced

weakness,
dizziness, disorientation,

so I stick
with my earlier assumption.

In a state of confusion,
she crawled out of the yurt,

destabilized the totem pole
in an effort to get to her feet,

and then it was,
"Goodnight, Vienna."

Sadie Rowcroft was

Lucian's studio
assistant back in the day,

so she'd be aware of the
toxic gases produced in a kiln.

How were they delivered
to the yurt?

Don't ask me.
That's your job.

But there is one more thing.

Jordana Lansbury
wasn't pregnant.

In fact, her medical notes

reveal she had a condition
that made her infertile.

She faked the pregnancy test
with a felt tip pen.

♪

And you wanted me
to pay my respects?

What respect
are they showing us, eh?

Throwing us off
our farm.

This farm isn't
just our livelihood,

it's our home!

I was born on this farm.

My father was born on this farm,
and his father before him.

And what about Caleb?
It's his birthright!

What choice
do we have?

There's always
a choice.

[Sighs]

This is
an interesting color.

Is it?

Someone left a dead raven
outside the yurt.

Its feet were bound with twine
identical to this.

It was also tied around
the neck of an effigy

made in the image
of Ms. Linsbury.

So? You can
buy that anywhere.
Hmm.

Lucian Shirewell said that you
were jealous of Ms. Linsbury,

that he suspects you
of wanting to cause her harm.

Lucian thinks
I killed her?

Our witness insists that
they saw you close to the yurt

around the estimated time
of Ms. Linsbury's death.

Were they mistaken,
Ms. Rowcroft?

Jordana said she was going
to have Lucian's child.

I didn't want that
to happen.

I believe in the power
of the universe,

the dark and the light.

So you decided to invoke
the power of the dark

to end her pregnancy?

I needed to see
Jordana face to face.

It was the only way
to make things right.

But when I got there,
she was already dead.

I panicked.
I ran and tripped.

There was a hose
across the path.

I nearly broke my wrist.

Nothing could compensate us
for losing our family home,

200 years of history.

And what am I supposed
to say to Caleb?

He's expected to take over
Long Cross

since the day
he was born.

I don't want it, Dad.

Sorry, Dad.

Lucian's been letting

So what was the actual
cause of death?

It's not entirely

across his throat,

I'd say someone's surprised him
from behind and garroted him

with a medium-gauge wire,

Who found the body?

His wife.
She's waiting for us.

[Birds chirp]

Of course it's Lucian.

Do you have any evidence
of that, Mrs. Shirewell?

He threatened Francis
in the cellars --

became very aggressive.

It was clear
he meant to do him harm.

Were there any
other witnesses to this?

Sadly, no.

I--I was there too.

Were you?
You were spying on us?

I heard voices in the cellar.

I came down to
see what was going on.

And?

When Francis and Lucian fight,
it can get very intense.

I was too much of a coward
to reveal myself.

What were they fighting
about?

Lucian found out that Francis
was going to appeal the will

on the grounds
of Lucian's mental instability.

His behavior was
to bear this out.

In what way?

He threatened Francis
physically, then let him go,

but he said this wasn't
the end of it --

that he'd show him
what true madness looked like.

Lucian
murdered his father

then poor Jordana,
and now Francis.

Well, you better watch

That was

I have had nothing

Yeah, don't stop you

'Cause part of you's

You're certainly

and so will he.

Where were you

Walking.

I hated my brother
quite openly.

Both your sister

you attacked him
hours before he died,

warned him
there'd be more to come.

Completely true
and entirely justified.

I found out that
my brother had been

selling
the family heirlooms

to a dealer in London
and pocketing the cash himself.

But they didn't tell you that,
did they?

No, they didn't.

Or that they were planning
to disinherit me

on the grounds of me
being a basket case?

Not because they
love Stourwick,

but because they want to sell it
once they regain control.

How did that
make you feel?

Enraged,
but not surprised.

Where were you
yesterday evening

between 9 p.m. and 11:00,
Mr. Shirewell?

I was here

Mm.

And uniform found
a hose connector screwed

into the external outlet

They've confirmed
that it's identical to those

joining the lengths of hose
that washed up on the shore.

So Fleur's hunch
was right.

The toxic gases that killed
Jordana Linsbury

came from the kiln.

Anything else?

The finance checks came back
on Francis and Davina.

There are large,
regular deposits

into their joint account
from a London dealer,

and the amounts correspond
to the value

of the items
missing from the house.

It adds up
to over £1 million.

Which Davina would inherit,
giving her motive,

and she has no alibi.

Is she capable
of killing him

in such an extreme
and violent way?

They plotted together
to frame Lucian as a madman.

If she did kill her husband,
it would make sense to stage it

as if it had been executed

by a psychopath
to implicate Lucian.

Which would tie in with
how easily these were discovered

by uniform --
ceramic wire cutters

found in the shrubbery

underneath
the dining room window.

And you were right
about this, sir.

The object in his eye
is a ceramic hole cutter.

Lucian confirmed that these
and the ceramic wire cutters

are missing
from his studio.

Is there any evidence
to link him to the scene?

Not as yet,
and his alibi checks out.

Should we
bring him in?

First we need to talk
to Davina Shirewell.

It's called stealing,
Mrs. Shirewell.

Francis worked like a slave
for his father for nothing.

Everyone thinks people like us
are dripping in money,

but the truth is,
we're poor as church mice.

Any spare money
had to go back in the estate.

Apart from the regular
and significant amounts

transferred into
the joint account you shared

with your husband.

I was promised the good life,
inspector,

a life
I was brought up to expect.

What were we supposed to do?

We could barely afford
a decent bottle of Chablis.

Is that why you staged
the robbery in the chapel?

No, that had absolutely
