What's this on your shoes?

I didn't do it.

Where are you now? King Street.
Lime Street Passage is ahead of me.

OK, go down
to the end of the street, turn left,
the restaurant's on the corner.

'Did you get that, Eric?'

Eric?

If you want to go somewhere else,
greasy spoon, whatever...

I just want us to be together.

'Just to talk.

'Eric.'

You've come this far.

OK.

Good. Great.

Susan's on her way.

'See you there in a minute.'

Eric?

I'll be there.

I'm pretty hungry.

Hope your bank balance can stand it.

OK.

Eric! Eric!

ERIC!

Eric, Eric, Eric! No, no!

Eric, no, no!

No, no, Eric.

Excuse me, sir, d'you know this man?
He's my brother. Your brother?

One, two, three, four, five.

One, two, three, four, five...

Nike trainers.

Smelt of wood.

Wood? Are you sure? She's sure.

I'm sorry sir, I don't know
what you asked her. DI Finnegan's
taking the statement, Red.

It is so slow!

The knife - which hand?
That's what I asked.

Left. Would you know him
if you saw him again?

SHE MOUTHS

Probably.

Yes.

I think that's all for tonight.

If you'd like to read this...

and sign it...

I'll take you both home when
Susan's finished. Thanks, Charlie.

Anything from
the other witnesses' statements?

No.

Did you find the knife?

Not yet, sir. Could you describe
your brother's wallet?

No, um...

No, Eric and me...

DCI Metcalfe and his brother
haven't seen each other recently.

The back alleys, garbage bins,
local pubs, try the gents,
killer would have dumped it.

Letterboxes,
somebody might have posted it.

It's all in hand, Red.
Let DI Finnegan do his job.

Killed for what?
£15 and a travel pass.

HEAVY BREATHING AND GASPING

BELL TOLLS

How are you doing?

Mandy. It's OK.

Excuse me.

Kate. Sir.

Duncan.

Thanks for coming. It's a pleasure.

Jean's made lunch. I'll have to
get back to the station.

Finnegan's promised me an update.

You've got to eat.

He's a conscientious officer. If
anything breaks, he'll let you know.

I'm surprised
Duncan Warren showed up.

I work with him, Charlie.

Take as much time as you need.
I'm not ill, sir.

My brother's died.

Have you discussed this with Susan?

Yes, she understands.

DCI Metcalfe, DI Warren
and DS Beauchamp.

It's the same spot.

I know.

This hand here.

It feels like
the victim's holding something.

Do I have your permission to cut?

Some type of wire.

Last night, a man identified
as Russ Collier was bound
and buried alive on Wimbledon Common.

Age 28, no record.

Two years ago, John Hardy was found
in exactly the same spot.

His hands, wrists and ankles
were taped. His head was covered
with a plastic bag.

Cause of death, suffocation.

Three days later,
Hardy's killer was arrested.

Do you all know DCI Macintyre?

MUMBLES OF ASSENT
The first victim, murdered two years
ago. John Hardy, 26, credit broker.

Loan shark. D'you want to take over?

DCI Macintyre was SIO.
For those who weren't involved,
do you want to talk us through?

Hardy had been battered
by a heavy object before
he was asphyxiated with the bag.

No DNA, no semen,
no sign of sexual molestation.

Davor Pasovic.

Davor Pasovic was convicted
of Hardy's murder.
He's presently in Wormwood Scrubs.

You sure about that?
First thing I checked.

Fast forward to last night. Our
victim, Russ Collier, was found in
exactly the same place as John Hardy.

He too was suffocated,
only this time the pattern changes.

He was buried alive.

His van was parked near the scene.
He'd received a blow to the head.

Blood on a lump hammer in the van
suggests that was the weapon used.

He was placed on a plank and then
bandaged from his feet to his neck.

The plank prevented him
kicking his way out.
His head was bound with film.

Allowing the poor bastard to see
everything that was done to him.

With no earth under the wrappings,
it appears Collier was transported,
then taped in his van.

Placed in his right hand was
a 75cm length of cheese wire. We're
trying to identify the manufacturer.

Doctor Dugdale.

A needle mark on the upper left arm
suggests Russ Collier was drugged.

Note the erratic bandaging
halfway up the body.

Telling us?

Toxicology may show us it's possible
the victim was conscious during
the procedure and attempted to move.

It may be Flunitrazepam, the date
rape drug, which explains why he was
unable to put up more of a struggle.

Any sign of sexual assault?
Not so far.

The killer cut a hole in the film,
enabling Collier to breathe.

He was then rolled
to the burial site.

Before completely burying him, the
killer put a straw in his nostril
to allow a limited supply of oxygen.

Could he actually have survived
the burial? Could the intention be
to punish him, not to kill him?

If that was the case,
why not insert two straws, a tube,
provide a fail-safe supply of oxygen?

How long would he have lasted?

He couldn't risk moving his head
in case he dislodged the straw.

If he'd hyperventilated,
he'd have died almost immediately.

He may have survived
for five or six hours.

The killer deliberately prolonged
the victim's suffering.

He or she wanted him in the dark...

..terrified...

fighting for air.

Why?

Why go to all that trouble?

What do we know about Russ Collier?
He lives with his sister, Jenny.
Works as a builder.

She said he had no close friends.
They were both devoted to their dad.
He lives in an old-people's home.

What are we looking at here? Copycat,
but with significant differences
to the original murder.

It has some relevance to
the first victim, John Hardy. Hardy.
Why copy that particular murder?

Somebody's trying to wind us up.
Wind us up - like it.

Anyone with a motive
to kill Russ Collier?

Alexi Pasovic.

Davor Pasovic, the first victim's
killer, has a brother, Alexi.

He had to be restrained from
hitting the foreman of the jury
when the verdict was announced.

Burying people in plastic
runs in the family?
Pasovic is pressing for an appeal.

Alexi wants big brother out
of the nick, so he murders Collier.

Makes it look like we got it wrong
two years ago. Did we?

What's with the "we" business?

So let's concentrate
on the basics first.

Witnesses.

Someone dug a grave, no-one noticed?

The van.

Where was it last seen before
it was driven onto the common?

The straw, cheese wire.

Check local outlets.

Talk to prison liaison,

prisoners released
in the last, what, six months?

Especially inmates on the same wing
as Pasovic.

Concentrate on the violent ones,
psychopaths, signature killers,

Good. So, where you off to?
To interview him.

He was my collar.
Why don't I tag along?

What are you doing here? Mr Pasovic

Red. Mr Jameson.
Sorry to hear about your brother.
Any progress? Not as yet.

Thank you.

Do you know this man?

I assume that's last night's victim,
Russ Collier. How was he killed?

We're talking to your client.

Bound, battered, buried?
Is that what you think?

Same spot. Could be a coincidence,
but your presence here
suggests otherwise.

Details will be released
at the appropriate time.

If you're withholding evidence that
may help my client's appeal... Can
we talk about your brother, Alexi?

He has nothing to do with this.

He has everything to do with this.

Your mum's dead, your dad vanished
when you were 17, the rest of your
family's thousands of miles away,

Two years ago, Alexi borrowed £5,000
from John Hardy, plus huge interest.

When he failed to meet a payment,
Hardy did him over. You found out.

Next thing, you're in a pub fighting
John Hardy. Two days later he's dead.

Your brother was very angry
when you were convicted.

He threatened to kill the judge,
the foreman of the jury...

Threats made in extremis, not
pursued by the police. Now you want
an appeal. Have you questioned him?

Now there's a good idea.
Is there nothing you'd draw
the line at Mr Macintyre?

You mess up, the killer's out there,
and you're happy to frame this
man's brother to save your own skin.

You smug bastard!

How much do you think his suit cost?

£800? £900? Who pays for that?

You, me, the tax payer. Money he
gets for defending villains we've
broken our backs to put behind bars.

Has anyone else asked to see
the John Hardy case recently?
I can check and see. Thanks.

Where's the gents?
Down there on your left.

DI...Warren's phone. Is he there?
DI Warren went to the...

I didn't catch your name.
Anna Marchent.

Next time, love, leave it.

Why didn't you kick her head in
while you were at it?

Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have... I didn't see
the sign. I usually point it out.

I don't apologise often, make the
most of it. Accepted. Thank you.

Good.

Alexi Pasovic?

DCI Metcalfe, DCI Macintyre.
Can we ask you a few questions?

I don't see why not...
as long as his solicitor's present.

Tell me about Russ Collier. My client
denies knowledge of the deceased.

Where were you last night between
eleven and four, Alexi? ..Is there a
reason you don't wish to answer that?

Do you have a specific charge
to make against my client? Will it
alter his whereabouts last night?

At home.

Alone? Yes. At least
you haven't tried to lie about it.

I don't lie. You claimed to be
with your brother the night
Hardy was killed. That was a lie.

What did you want the £5,000
you borrowed from John Hardy for?
What? Holiday? Deposit on a flat?

A car. A car?

You borrow it. Worry about
how you'll repay it later.

Is there some point to this?
You can't meet the payments.

John Hardy threatens to remove your
head. What do you do? What you've
always done - run to your brother.

Next thing,
John Hardy's dead and buried.
Have you something new to add?

What's it like? You wake up
in the morning, blue sky. You think,
what am I going to do today?

Then you remember Davor,
he isn't going anywhere.

He's getting the shit kicked out
of him, eating disgusting food,
breathing in putrid air.

Why? Because you fancied a car. I'm
sorry, I can't see the relevance.

What do you do? You're under no
obligation to answer that. Nothing?

You get him banged up. You just
gonna leave him there to rot? No.

What you gonna do? I don't see you
doing anything. I do things.

Like what?

Did you murder Russ Collier?
You don't have to answer that.

He looks after me, I look after him.
He's my brother.

Russ Collier. Dead guy,
auditioning for The Mummy Returns.

Macintyre questioned him
two years ago. What for?

A suspect in the John Hardy murder.

I found out who had
the Hardy notes last. Who?

A DCI Charles Macintyre. They were
sent to him on the 27th of September,
returned four days later.

How was I supposed to remember?

We took statements
from hundreds of people.
Pulled in and questioned suspects.

Eight suspects. Russ Collier was
Hardy's client. He owed him £6,000
from an original loan of £2,000.

Hardy was hassling for repayments.

Why did you let him go?
He had an alibi.

From the sister he lived with. She
did his washing, made his tea. I
solved the Hardy case two years ago.

It's yesterday's case
we're supposed to be cracking.

Can we talk about this in private?

Talk to Collier's sister. Make sure
the alibi she gave him was fireproof.

This is crazy.
Why did you ask for the Hardy file?

Jameson is pressing for an appeal.
He'll rubbish my investigation.
I needed to cover my back.

When you heard the name Russell
Collier, you must have remembered it.
You'd re-read the case files.

Six months ago. The case was closed,
I wasn't interested
in the other suspects.

I was only concerned
with the Pasovic material.

Go home.

What?

Get a doctor's note. Do some
gardening. You're not serious.

You could be seen to be withholding
information in a murder case.

You shouldn't have come back
to work so soon. We all told you.

Well, we could go down
the official path if you prefer.

What the hell's going on up here?
You're getting this totally
out of proportion. Go home, Charlie.

Sir?

There was a double shooting.
They got pulled off.

The knife. The wallet.

He's bound to have form, he's
five-ten, five-eleven, Nike trainers.

Your wife's description was general.
He smelt of wood, for God's sake!

It was a random killing, sir,
the odds of finding... Statistics?
Where's my brother's murderer?!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

This is not easy.

I'll enquire about extra officers.

Thank you.

CRASH!
Sorry.

Mandy.

Susan.

We're going for a coffee.

Your dad's home early. He's in the
car. We thought we'd go for a burger.

- Come for a burger?
- Maybe another time.

MUFFLED CRIES

Jenny Collier.
Russ Collier's sister.

Her boss was surprised she came
to work, as if she hadn't taken in
that Russ had been murdered.

When she disappeared yesterday,
he assumed she'd gone home.

Was she alive
when she was put in the sack?

Probably. There was a blow to her
head. It would have knocked her out,
but wouldn't have been fatal.

There's a needle mark, suggesting
she was drugged, like her brother.

A handkerchief had been stuffed
in her mouth before it was taped.

So you're stuffed in a sack, gagged,
buried in dirty laundry. The smell
may knock you out, but not kill you.

Jenny Collier was asthmatic.
Her condition was chronic.

Restriction of oxygen,
lack of medication, fear, it all
would have contributed to her death.

So the killer knew her.
Or knew about her.

Imagine the trouble and risk
to get in here.

If he was worried about time, he'd
have hit her and left it at that.

Instead he buried her alive,
just like her brother.

So what does that tell us about him?
The killer is meticulous.
Everything has a purpose.

Not only does he believe that we got
it wrong in the John Hardy murder,

he thinks Russ and Jenny Collier
are connected to his death.

Talk to Collier's father.

Find out what he knows.

I want to examine the forensic
evidence in the Hardy case.

So what's the cheese wire
all about?

Can I help you?
Doctor Dugdale, DCI...

Metcalfe. I've seen you on the news.
We're here to see Dr Bannerman.

I'll let him know you've arrived.

Blood on the chest area.
Urine and faeces.

You found no trace of Davor Pasovic's
DNA on John Hardy's body or clothes?

No. No forensic material

to link Davor Pasovic
with Hardy's killing at all?

All the blood belonged to Hardy.

Well, all the blood tested.

Are you saying you tested
only a selection of stains?

It's standard practice. Time
pressures. Dr Dugdale will tell you.

It's normal procedure.

What proportion did you test?

40%, 45% - a random selection.

I want the blood on Hardy's clothes
tested against Collier's.

- Collier's? It wasn't my case...
- I'm authorising it.

The Colliers' father
is in the Oakfield Nursing Home.

On the 10th of September,
two years ago, the matron asked
Russ and Jenny to remove him. Why?

Too expensive. They'd borrowed
to pay for a cataract operation for
their dad. Hardy wanted repaying.

The old man was gutted. He loves
the place. When he found out he may
have to leave, he got depressed.

Hardy was killed
on September the 17th.

On the 18th, Russ and Jenny told
the matron that payment of fees
would no longer be a problem.

What now?

We wait for the results
of the forensic tests.

Doctor Dugdale?

I hear you're having new blood tests
done on the Hardy clothes. Yes.

So you found the missing paperwork?
What missing paperwork?
Nothing, I got confused. Matthew?

I was talking to one
of the technicians. When they did
the tests, two years ago,

he found
an unidentified blood sample.
He says he notified Dr Bannerman

and, as an insurance, sent the SIO,
DCI Macintyre, a copy.

Metcalfe.

The bloodstains on Hardy's clothes.
One of the samples isn't his.

And...?

'It matches your recent victim -
Russ Collier.'

- Collier killed Hardy two years ago?
- We're saying it's possible.

Russ Collier killed Hardy two years
ago and sister Jenny helped?

Something else you should know...

You could have
saved yourself a journey.
You're talking to the wrong man.

Bannerman told me all the blood
belonged to Hardy. He was
the scientist, for God's sake.

You were sent the results
independently. What did you
get Bannerman to do?

Test the rogue sample
against Pasovic? Doesn't match,
so you tell him to bury it.

Show me the paperwork. What results?

Russ Collier had a cut on his hand.
Noted in the statement...

never followed up. He couldn't afford
to pay for his father's nursing.

All right, things were missed.
That doesn't mean
I deliberately framed Davor Pasovic.

You got your killer.
You weren't going to start again.

Why now? Why, after all these years,
are you questioning my methods?

They'll never catch Eric's killer,
you have to take it out on someone
and I'm right in front of you.

They put the wrong man in jail,
Charlie.

You've slapped me wrists,
end of story. Take Susan home.

You expect me to bury this?

We're friends,
in case you've forgotten.

Is this how you measure friendship -
whether I'll lie for you?

I've five years to retirement.
What about Mandy?

Don't you dare.

Don't you dare make me feel bad
because you betrayed my trust.

I didn't!

What do we know about the person
who killed the Colliers? He knew
THEY killed John Hardy, not Pasovic.

There was a wrongful conviction.

Someone did their homework
better than we did.

How could he know?

He studied the case. ..Policeman?

No, the evidence is all made public.
Daniel Jameson's got all the case
notes. He did it to get Pasovic off.

Why not just come to us? He'd enjoy
showing us we'd got it wrong. We'd
wrongfully convicted his client.

I can't see Jameson getting dirty.
OK, Alexi does the killing.

Well, make your mind up. I want
both of them under surveillance.

Did Collier go down the pub,
get pissed, start mouthing off?

The workers at the laundry?
All accounted for.

Maybe one of Hardy's cronies
figured it out

and decided to murder the Colliers
in the same way.

Except more sadistically
to add to the punishment.

Talk to friends of Hardy,
friends of the Colliers.

Talk to your informants.

Who could have known
that the Colliers killed him?

Did someone want to avenge his death?

What about this cheese wire?
As far as we can establish,
there's no link to John Hardy.

What do you use cheese wire for?
Cutting cheese.
Apart from the obvious.

Garotting.

You're late.

Sorry.

Had to catch up on some paperwork.
Again?

I'm going to bed.

I'll see you up there.

Yeah, Wilby.

March 23rd 1997.

A dance teacher, Felicity Oldroyd,
was thrown down this embankment.

She landed on the line
and was electrocuted.
Tell me you're not psychic.

I was still in uniform. We were
drafted in to help with the search.

What's he holding?

I'll have to break his fingers.

Philip Stansfield, 43, worked
in the City, married, no children.

He got off the 10.13 from Waterloo
at approximately 10.35 last night.

A blow to the head
would have rendered him unconscious
for at least several minutes.

What was used?
A stone probably. We removed
traces of soil from the wound.

We've also got a needle mark.
We need the tox reports,

but he may have been conscious when
the electricity was applied. There's
evidence of burning on the back.

It is possible
he wasn't killed instantly.

The killer used
a paraglider's harness, no label.

He's customised it by inserting
a metal plate into the back

then riveting a steel hook
through the harness onto the plate.

A welder, sheet-metal worker,
someone with specialist training?

No, evening classes would cover it.
And careful planning.

All the killer had to do then was
roll the body down the embankment.

He studied Stansfield.

He knew which train he took,
which path he used.

Before he killed him...

he placed a cut-throat razor
in his hand.

First, cheese wire, now, razor.

Tell me about the power supply.

The killer flipped the trip on a
circuit, ran a cable off it and used
a transformer to control the voltage.

- The pulses made the body jump...
- Jump?

Jerk.

Dance?

Felicity Oldroyd was a dancer.

Our killer believes...

that Philip Stansfield murdered
Felicity Oldroyd.

The man jailed for the Felicity
Oldroyd killing, Des Braithwaite...

Has always maintained
his innocence, I know.

And this morning, Stansfield's body
is found electrocuted in a
barbaric parody of her death.

Telling me what? I have another case
of wrongful imprisonment on my hands?

Pasovic is about to be released.
Daniel Jameson is threatening to sue.

Can you imagine the public reaction?
A vigilante moves in and solves a
murder after the police get it wrong.

He even saves the taxpayer
the cost of the real murderer's
prison sentence.

I'm holding an independent enquiry
into Macintyre's handling of the
Hardy case. You may have to testify.

I am answerable
for every officer below me.

If Macintyre did frame Pasovic, it
won't just be his head on the block.

Neither myself nor Mr Pasovic can
say much, but an awful miscarriage
of justice has taken place.

For the sake of all those wrongly
convicted, I shall make sure all
those responsible pay. Thank you.

All of you were involved
in the investigation into Felicity
Oldroyd's murder five years ago.

Now we have Philip Stansfield
electrocuted
in exactly the same spot last night.

Felicity's killer's sitting in jail.

The man convicted of her murder,
Des Braithwaite, yes. Yes, he is.

So we can be sure of one thing -
he didn't kill our latest victim.

Des Braithwaite, however...

continues to maintain that he didn't
kill Felicity Oldroyd either.

Des Braithwaite, a married man,
was having a secret affair
with Felicity Oldroyd.

After she died, he didn't volunteer
this information. She was pregnant.

In a DNA sweep, he refused
to be tested. After being charged,
a test revealed the baby was his.

They were overheard arguing
violently the night before she died.

She told friends her lover wanted
her to have an abortion. You are?

DI Wilby, sir,
SIO on the Oldroyd case.

John Hardy, murdered.

Davor Pasovic, in jail, innocent.

Russ and Jenny Collier,
the real murderers, killed.

Des Braithwaite, in prison,
maintaining that he didn't kill
Felicity Oldroyd.

Now we have Philip Stansfield. Can
you see a pattern here? Coincidence.

The Colliers were found holding
cheese wire. Stansfield was found
with a cut-throat razor in his hand.

Do you see any significance in this?
No.

Did you pull in Philip Stansfield
during the investigation?

No. Are you sure you got this right,
Detective Inspector?

Yes.

Who knew the details
of Felicity Oldroyd's murder?

The officers on my team,
the CPS, the prosecution lawyers,

the defence, the jury,
the judge, the press,

television programme makers,
the cleaner at number one court
of the Old Bailey.

There's bound to be someone
I've forgotten.

How do you know Wilby?
I worked with him, late '80s.

What's he like?
He's a poofter.

Course, he hadn't come out then.

Still, one way to get fast-tracked,
being a shirt-lifter.

You're a dinosaur.
So? Everyone loves dinosaurs.
Only cos they're extinct.

Find a link between Felicity Oldroyd
and Stansfield.

I'm sorry. I'm not sure
how much more of this I can take.

Please.

We agreed.

It's the only way to do this.

That's the lot.

I don't suppose you could help me
go through them?

What am I looking for?
A name - Philip Stansfield.

One for you, one for me.

I've found Philip Stansfield. So,
what's the connection with Felicity?

He travelled back on the same train
as her, got off at the same station.

Because of this, and living
in the area, Stansfield was invited
to take part in the DNA sweep.

He declined. Instead, he got his GP
to send a letter from a consultant
stating that he was infertile.

Was he on the train with her
the night she was murdered?

His wife said she met him from
the later 10.55 train. Any CCTV?

No. The surveillance equipment
was stolen later the same night.
Is that linked to the murder?

Coincidence. The thieves disabled
a complex security system, taking
cameras, computers and the videos.

It looked like a professional job.

Anything else? I've still four boxes
to go through. OK, see you later.

Kate, find out everything you can
on Philip Stansfield,
then get onto the forensic lab,

tell them you want ALL the evidence
on the Oldroyd case.

I have a review meeting.
I could help her, Doctor Bannerman.

I rang.
C201-97-192 - Felicity Oldroyd.

She was 13 weeks pregnant.

Stansfield's GP submitted two
letters from different consultants
confirming he was infertile.

I nearly became a policeman.

Who was the forensic scientist
on this case?

My boss. ..Doctor Bannerman.

I guessed milk, wasn't sure
about sugar. Oh, no thanks.

I found the witness statement from
the woman that overheard Oldroyd and
Braithwaite argue. It's on your pile.

Oh, shit! Sorry!

I'm so sorry. Are you all right?
Yeah. No.

Um, take your trousers off.
Thanks for the offer, but no thanks.

No, I think you should. I don't do
this, I don't, I'm normally very...

It's OK, it's just coffee,
no-one's died. Honestly, I'm...

Do you fancy a drink?

What? In a pub.

You're asking me for a drink?
If it'll stop you
ripping the trousers off me!

Um, yeah, that'd be nice, actually.

Have you got the statement
this witness made to the court?

Um, yeah, here.

About that drink...
Only I've found something. It's OK.

I'm sorry. We seem to spend a lot
of time apologising to each other.
There's no need, really, is there?

No, there isn't.

The witness who saw Des Braithwaite
and Felicity Oldroyd arguing
the night before she was murdered,

How tall is Stansfield? Six foot one.
The witness was going home from the
pub after several glasses of wine.

It was suggested that she she might
be confused. By the time she's in
court, she's describing Braithwaite.

Who interviewed her? Wilby.

I've got letters
from two consultants confirming
Philip Stansfield's infertility.

The first consultant made it clear
that Stansfield couldn't be treated.

Why go for a second opinion?
It's difficult to accept.
Some people are desperate for kids.

Or desperate to believe
a child was theirs? How do you mean?

Stansfield saw the new consultant
just one week before
Felicity Oldroyd was killed.

Mrs Stansfield?

DCI Metcalfe, DS Beauchamp.

I appreciate you coming
at this terrible time.
Can we offer you some tea or coffee?

Did you know
Philip was having an affair? What?

Your husband and Felicity Oldroyd?
I don't understand. He's dead.
What's this got to do with...?

It wasn't just Des Braithwaite.
She also had one with your husband.
She told Philip she was pregnant.

He thought the baby may be his. The
second consultant said it couldn't
be. So she was two-timing him.

He went for ME.
I was the one who wanted children.

You said you picked him up from
the later train, but you didn't. So
he stole the surveillance equipment.

It showed him leaving
the same train as Felicity.
I had to identify him this morning.

I had to....

And now you're saying
he's a thief and a murderer.

Oh, I never said he was a murderer,
Mrs Stansfield. You knew,
but you chose to protect him.

Why?

Were you scared?

Were you frightened he might hurt
you? He loved me. He loved Felicity,
that's why he killed her.

She was a stupid tart.

He needed me. He realised that.

After you lied for him, I bet he
did! You can think what you like.
You don't know us.

You didn't know him. Braithwaite's
been in prison for five years
for a murder he didn't commit.

Do you think about that,
Mrs Stansfield?

Philip Stansfield once worked
as a security consultant. SOCO told
me the break-in was unrelated.

Your witness changed her description
of the man she saw arguing. There
were hundreds of witness statements.

You leant on her. No.
You leant on the witness.

You never asked yourself why
Stansfield consulted two specialists.

I had a DNA swoop of over 90 men.
You believed Des Braithwaite was
the killer, why look further? Sir.

The DCI is making
very serious allegations.

One way or the other, you got it
wrong. This isn't the end of it.

Now get out. But, sir... Leave!

DOOR CLOSES
Where are we?

We're pursuing the drugs, harness,
witness statements. Next, we work
out where the killer will strike.

- How?
- We examine every murder case.

We search for those defendants
who still maintain their innocence...

those who changed their plea
under pressure or after sentencing.

Every villain says he didn't do it.
If prisoners know what you're up to,
they'll all say they're innocent.

The team know
what they're looking for.

When they've isolated these cases,
do they realise where this will lead?

You're asking them,
in effect, to question
their fellow officers' judgement.

I'm trying to find a serial killer.
They understand that.

I requested extra officers,
but the Chief Superintendent
has allocated them all to you.

There you are, love.

Got it.

Metcalfe.

Mandy hasn't come home.
Have you reported it?
Yes. I've followed her route,

rang her friends...
She's too trusting.

She thinks this is a good world.

Sometimes it is, Charlie.

I'll go down to the station
and I'll co-ordinate the search.

Thanks.

Macintyre.

You.

She was garotted.
The killer used cheese wire.

The force of the wire
against the neck severed
the jugular vein and carotid artery.

No signs of a struggle,
suggesting she died quickly.

We were warned.

Why?

Who would do this?

Charlie Macintyre had the wrong man
convicted.

Mandy is his punishment.

How many officers
are investigating murder in the Met?

A thousand.

Not counting those who've retired
or left for another job.

How many of them have made mistakes
in their careers?

Who knows?

10 per cent? 20? 50?

They all have someone they love.

For every guilty policeman...

..an innocent person will die?

Assaulting your suspects
in broad daylight. Certainly puts
a new spin on visible policing.

The family called me.
He half beat their son to death.

I think they're feeling
a bit nervous.

Joe didn't kill Mandy Macintyre.
We both know that.

Why did you run away, Joe?

I sort of...

I thought...

You bought Mandy a burger,
didn't you?

She loved burgers. Everybody
she works with knows that.

Your fingerprints were on her mobile
phone. She wanted to text her dad.

He worries. I'm quicker.

Maybe you went to the park as well.

I left her at my bus stop.

I told her to go straight home.

Things there have been a bit tense
recently. There's no point in...

She promised.
She said she was going home.

Things tense at the Macintyres'?
Mandy tell you that, did she?

What else did she tell you?
Nothing.

Did you discuss her dad's
police work? We had better stuff
to talk about. Like what?

Did you see anyone else?

Was she meeting someone? No.
How do you know for sure?

Did you kill her, Joe?

How could I?

We... What?

We were going out.

What, boyfriend, girlfriend?
She never said.

She was petrified. What of?

Her father? For me.

If he found out.

It's like he thinks she's eight
or something. His little girl.

Only she wasn't.
She wasn't a kid any more.

I'm releasing you on bail.

You're in front of the magistrates
in the morning.

Have you charged him? No.

Why not, for God's sake?
He didn't do it.

He strangled my little girl. If I
see him again, I'll finish the job.

She was garotted with cheese wire,
the same wire found
on the Colliers' hands.

What? He didn't just
let her fall naturally.
He didn't hide her in the bushes.

He arranged her...

so that we'd find Mandy...
tied to the swing.

What are you saying, you bastard?

This has something to do
with the Hardy case?

Mandy died because of me?
Is that what you're saying? Is it?

I think the killer's trying to punish
you. You're sick. I told you. I said.

He knows that you sent
an innocent man to jail.

So he picks the person
who is closest to you in the world
and he murders her.

I knew it, I bloody knew it!

Eric dies, you've got nobody
for the murder and come out
with all these lies to... To what?

To hurt you, Charlie?

What would I want to do that for?

You're wrong.

I'll get a car to take you home.

Jean needs you.

What am I gonna tell her?

For every wrong conviction we've
made, an innocent person could die.

If I'm right...

..someone close to you could be next.

Child, wife, mother, lover.

DI Wilby was the SIO
on the Oldroyd case.

We can't presume
that he's the only target.

Philip Stansfield was found
with a cut-throat razor in his hand,

suggesting
that this could be the murder weapon.
Mandy was garotted with cheese wire.

Why the change? Is it some game
he's playing with us or a message?

Maybe it's a clue to the next
killing. A high-security alert
has been issued.

Your nearest and dearest will be
put under surveillance. As yet,
we have no idea of a time-scale.

The killer could wait a month
or strike in the next hour.

If anyone's received
written or verbal threats
in the past months, we want to know.

Also, it's possible that the killer
hasn't finished with the officers
on the Hardy case.

That Mandy isn't the only target.

So until this killer is caught...

..you must assume that
all your loved ones are at risk.

You're tearing my team apart.

They blame me for this.

Is there someone special
in YOUR life, Detective Inspector?

Yes.

Hear me.

Lying to yourself
isn't going to keep him alive.
