All language subtitles for Trial and Retribution s06e01

Good night, everyone.

Come on, then, girls.

All right,

see you.

And both girls gave the same
description, which was white male, 5

and bearded.

Satch? Yeah, they both told the same
story without putting their heads

They said the man was hiding in the
wooded area over here.

Sorry.

That's the lads.

Okay, it's a huge area to search, so
we're going to need dogs.

Yeah, have you got anything for me yet?
What? No, it's Mikey Plonker.

Look, listen, I need help. Yeah.

I'm a bit busy right now. Yeah, I know,
but it's actually so been a damn thing.

I've taken a week off to work on this
and it's bloody useless.

Hey, what?

All right, have you tried the help menu?
Yeah.

Top right.

Okay.

Great, yeah, I got it. Now, I've got a
date for the big meeting. If I'm not

talking about computing and modern
policing, I at least need to be able to

switch the damn thing on.

Yeah, look, just press control S for
now, yeah. Okay, I'll call you back

Okay, sorry, folks.

Okay, so that's the very big area.

Obviously, someone's going to have to
organise dogs.

Yeah, I've already told them that.

Hello? Hi, Mike, it's me.

Yeah, come on up.

Hello?

Hi, come on in.

I know these have been a long time
coming, but here they are, signed,

delivered.

Thanks.

You OK about this? Yes, I'm fine.

As a matter of fact, the divorce papers
were a bit of a pretext.

I've met someone.

That's really good news.

He's really lovely. We met at my new
gym. I'm sure you'll like him. He's

in the car with the kids.

I was wondering if I could leave them
with you for the weekend.

Yeah,

yeah, this weekend?

Yeah, actually, today as well. It's a
school holiday.

Is that a problem?

Oh, Mr Mellor. Yeah, Henry.

Sorry about Henry. He makes a lot of
noise, but he's more likely to lick you

death. Yeah, this is Detective Inspector
Pat North. She's going to be leading

the investigation.

How do you do? Do you have any news?

No, I'm afraid not yet, but I would like
to talk to you, if I might.

Nobody. Dave.

Sorry, you were saying?

And was there anything troubling your
wife over the last few days?

Not that I was aware of.

She wasn't anxious or worried about
anything?

No.

Now, you were both due at your
daughter's concert that night.

The night that Jane disappeared, yeah?

Yes.

Jane teaches tarot at the piano, and it
was quite a special thing for us to be

there.

Well, both musicians, you see, we teach
up at the school.

What I'm saying is Jane had plans for
that evening.

I've only told you this once. This is
wasting time.

Why are you wasting time here with me?

Mr Mello, why don't we sit down?

Yeah, good idea.

Hello.

You must be Eric.

Very nice to meet you. Likewise.

I'm sorry if this is an inconvenience.

Oh, hey, they're my kids.

It's just I got an unexpected long
weekend off and Lynn and I thought we

spend some quality time together.

Great. Where are you off to? The Peak
District.

Eric loves hiking.

Hiking?

Yeah, I'm going to get her a really good
pair of walking boots.

We can't wait to get out of London.

Well, take good care of her.

Yeah, sure.

Can you tell us a bit more about what
Jane's like?

What?

Well, what's she like? What's Jane like
as a person?

She's a very special lady.

She's a very talented pianist.

And a wonderful mother.

And is there anyone else that she was
close to who might be able to help us?

Well, I suppose you should talk to
Crispin.

Crispin Yates.

He lives with us.

You should probably know that Jane and I
don't live as man and wife. We have

separate bedrooms.

I know how that must look from the
outside, but all I can tell you is it

for us.

And this Crispin Yates?

What about him? Is he here now?

No.

He teaches piano at the school on a
Friday.

How long has he lived here?

It'll be three years this September. He
moved in a few weeks after he started

teaching at the school.

Mr Mellor, why didn't you mention this
to me before?

What, that Crispin lives with us? Yes.

Yeah.

Hey, you'll never guess what I got here.

The divorce papers.

Len came round, yeah, she brought them
over, and we've got the kids for the

weekend.

I'm sorry, I can't talk at the moment.

Right.

Just thought you'd like to know.

Richard! I want to watch this!

Come on, guys.

Oi! Richard!

So you want me to interview this lodged
bloke, Crispin Yates?

No, I'll do that. You organise the
reconstruction for the girls.

Now, is that Chauvin or Mozart?

Oh, and keep those girls apart, yeah?
Yeah.

Oh, now that's definitely so pat.

Mr. Yee?

What? I'm sick to death of constant
bloody interruptions.

I'm Detective Inspector Pat North,
investigating the disappearance of Jane

Mellor.

Is she all right? Have you found her?

No, I'm afraid not. Can we talk here, or
would you prefer to go? How can she be

snatched in broad daylight and just
disappear?

Well, that's what we're trying to find
out.

Could we have a quick word?

Yeah, sure.

Now, I understand that you live with Mr.
and Mrs. Mellor, yeah?

Yes, that's right.

So were you at home that night, the
night that she disappeared?

No, I was in Paris for a concert.

I only got back yesterday.

I see. So when did she leave?

Wednesday morning.

Please, God, don't let her be dead.

Don't let her be dead. I couldn't bear
it.

Excuse me, Mr. Yates.

Not now, Janine.

Get out. Go on.

Sorry.

So when did you last see Jane?

The night before I left.

And did you notice anything unusual
about her? Was she worried or anxious in

way? No, she was fine.

I understand that Mr.

and Mrs. Mellor leave separate lives.

Has that ever led to any sort of
friction in the house?

You mean my living there as well?

No, there wasn't any friction, as you
put it.

Were you having a relationship with Jane
Mellor?

No, I was not.

Please just find her.

This is unbearable.

Plead to find her safe.

Yates is very sexy.

Do you think him and Jane were having an
affair?

Possibly. I think we should get straight
to the woods.

Oh, she must have something going for
her. I mean, he can't be more than 20,

Jane Mellor's, what, 42?

I don't think she's got much going for
her. I think she's long dead.

Well, I said you should wear them in.

So, well, let's have a look.

Oh, yeah, that's a beauty.

Oh.

Well... There's only one thing for it.

What?

Oh, no!

Oh, no!

Oh, no! Oh, no!

Oh,

no! Oh, no!

Oh, no!

Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!

I'm actually doing pretty well on my
own, thank you very much.

He's been trying to help you with the
internet and stuff.

Yeah?

How long's he been coming round, Eric?

Oh, weeks. And he bought me a Britney
Spears CD.

Oh.

Richard, get the door, will you?

Yeah, well, press the buzzer and let him
in, will you?

Dumbo.

Richard, I want to get this done!

Richard, I want to get this done! Shut
up!

Hey!

Kids, shut up and sit down, will you?

Come on, I'm trying to get through this
programme.

Disbehave yourselves.

Shit, don't look what you've made me do.

Where's that ricky -dicky coming?

Gotcha. Keep up those hum -foo lessons.

Where's your dad?

Hiya. How you doing?

I can't stop. I've only got a couple of
minutes.

You know Pat's setting up this new
investigation, don't you?

Mike, you hear what I said?

Oh, Sarge, come and have a look, would
you?

Screen's seized up or something.

Kids!

Kids!

I'm not going to tell you to again. Just
keep quiet.

You're preserved, aren't you?

What? What did you just do?

I just pressed control -alt -delete,
then clicked on end task.

Shh, for God's sake, write that down,
would you?

What's it doing now?

I was searching.

I wish searching woods was as easy. I've
got bloody miles of it. You see, I

thought perhaps it might be a bit funny,
this being her first case as SIO, you

know? What?

Well, you know, I wondered whether she
might have a problem working with some

my higher intellect and prowess.

Oh, Satch, do me a favour. Will you keep
your nose to the ground about all this?

I need to know about the competition.

My big interview's in a few days' time
and I really want that job.

Commander Walker.

Well, you'll make it.

I deserve it.

There you go.

Right,

I'm off.

See you later, kids.

Bye, Satch. See you, Satch.

And take it easy, Commander.

Thanks, Satch.

Tara Manor's here, but the parents of
the other little girl says she's still

shock, having nightmares. Right.

Hi, Barbara.

Tara, this is Pat.

Hello, Tara.

Now, we want you to walk the same route
that you took with your mummy, all

right? You know your daddy and I are
here, so you don't need to feel

in any way.

If you do, you just hold my hand.

Look, there's Henry.

Word of warning. She's in denial that
anything bad has happened to her mother.

She keeps saying she's coming home. I
think she's just got lost.

OK.

Right, shall we go?

Come on, then. Let's go.

Has Mike got his divorce through yet?

Yeah, he has, as a matter of fact.

Well, so when's the wedding day?

I'm sure he'll let you know.

Thanks, Mr Mallow.

Oh, we had a talk with Mr Yates this
afternoon.

Oh, yes?

Very upset about your wife's
disappearance.

They were obviously very close.

Yes, they were.

I mean, they are.

You were at the school when she was
abducted, yes?

That's right. I was working.

So you're going to meet her later?

What?

What, for the concert?

Oh, yeah.

It's nice of you to show up, Satch. I
just dropped in on the governor to help

him out with his computer.

Now, I'm the governor in this case,
Satch, and when I ask my team to be at a

certain place at a certain time...
Sorry.

What is it? Is this where it happened?

Tell us then what happened.

Mummy threw the stick for Henry and he
ran off to that tree.

He was gone for a bit, so Mummy went
after him.

Are you sure it was that tree?

Yes.

Henry?

Henry! And what happened next?

Henry started to bark and bark behind
the tree.

And you followed him.

It's okay.

Who's lost?

We're right behind you.

These are off the sex offences register.

Norman Drayton, done twice for
possession of child pornography.

Robert Rickman, been brought in on
several occasions for stealing women's

underwear.

Arrested for indecent assault on at
least one 16 -year -old that we know of.

David Ory, had two rape charges against
him and served 12 years.

And last but not least...

It's Jason Locter.

Previous victims were incest.

All of these suspects live within a five
-mile radius of the woods.

Great, thanks, Lisa. OK, I'll take
Locter and Ory. Fats, can you take the

two, Rickman and Drayton, and we'll
reconvene at 11 o 'clock, OK?

Okay, can the rest of you carry on with
the witness inquiries? We need to trace

as many people as possible who were in
those woods on Wednesday afternoon.

So far, all we have is the man who was
walking his dog who says he didn't see a

thing.

Keep an open mind to anything that comes
up, yeah?

Jane Mellor could still be alive and
being held captive somewhere.

It just came in. The consulate in Paris.
Crispin Yates, right? Well, it was

cancelled. Was it?

We'll get on to that. Sure.

Fancy a trip on the Eurostar?

You'd be lucky. Bob Brickman's just
confessed.

What? Well, I hadn't even got my bum on
the seat when he said, listen, I know

what this is about and I want you to
know I've done it.

OK, so he's got form for stealing
ladies' underwear and indecently

teenager girl. He's single.

He lives with his invalid mother and
he's 36 years old. His younger brother's

quite a big noise in the building trade.

Owns a sawmill up near Chatham Fowl.

Seems our Bob is kept by his family. A
real loser.

Unemployed, sponging off the social.

Has he got a solicitor?

Oh, yeah, Edwin Shawcross, last of the
walking dead. He's used him before.

Yeah, if you want my advice.

No, I don't, but if I do, I'll certainly
ask for it.

They killed her, didn't they?

The woman in the woods.

And how did you kill her?

Hit her over the head with a bit of
wood.

Then they suffocated her.

And where did you put the body?

Buried her in the woods.

Right, then. Can you take her to the
body?

Yeah, you want me to?

I'll show you.

Disembow! Yes! He's got his lungs out
and everything.

Now, next thing. Shoot him. Shoot him!

Oh, his brains are everywhere. His guts.

Now, hang him. Hang him. The rope's
coming down. Get in his neck.

Richard, what are you doing?

Burn him. Burn him. Burn him. What the
hell is that?

Oh, Dad.

Where did you get that, Richard?

Eric. Yeah, well, I hope you haven't
lost my files. You're not playing it.

Tell him not to touch them till you get
back.

Richard, I will wring your neck if
you've lost any of my files. I never

them. She's always telling tales.

I am.

Hey,

let's just calm down, huh?

Let's calm down and eat.

She did it on purpose. She did it on
purpose.

Thank you, Richard. Thank you.

Okay, sweetheart.

Hey, why don't you put the food on the
table? We don't need to pay for the

I'll clear it up.

All right, Mr. Frickman, we've been
through this area once. Are we going to

right or to the left this time?

Yeah, it's over that way.

If we keep walking, I'll recognize it
when we get there.

By the pond.

Yeah.

Okay, come on.

Come on, come on.

Yeah, this is it.

Yeah, this is the plate.

Yeah, she's here. Good luck. See this?

That's where I cut myself on a barbed
wire throwing her over.

Right. She's there.

So you buried her, what, by that tree?
Yeah. Okay, everyone.

Just cut through the bottom of the
fence. Leave the top, okay?

Or maybe there.

Or maybe... He's lying.

That cut in his hands fresh.

Better get forensics to check the whole
of this barbed wire, but he's wasting

our bloody time.

Where is he, Satch? Interview room one.

I've got a bloody good excuse for the
wild goose chase he's just led us on. Do

you want me to see if I can find you
some shoes?

No, I'm fine. Let's just get on with it.

Satch?

What time did you go to the woods?

About four.

I'm taking portions of squirrels.

Not with a gun, nothing like that.

I only got a sling I made.

I never really get to hit them, but I
like fooling around, you know.

Get a stone and fix it.

Usually miss them, but...

Sometimes they don't, you know.

OK, so you get to the woods, then what
happens?

Went around for a bit.

I saw her.

The two kids.

And then her dog come towards me.

She followed it.

You'd ever met Jane Mellor before that
afternoon?

No.

Never seen her in the wood, tall,
walking a dog?

No, I didn't know her before.

So why did you approach her?

I liked the way she looked.

What did she look like?

Very pretty.

Blonde.

Had a nice flower blouse on.

Pink and blue.

What else was she wearing?

Jeans and boots.

What sort of boots?

You know, boots.

It was muddy.

I didn't think about it.

It just sort of happened.

What happened?

Well, I wanted her.

So I sort of lunged her and got hold of
her like, you know.

No, I don't know, Mr. Brennan.

Can you explain a bit further? You say
you lunged at her.

Oi!

Sit down!

Okay. OK, it's fine.

Note for tape.

Suspect moved forward and grabbed me and
was restrained.

Miss, you asked me to explain. That's
what I did, eh?

So I sort of got out of her throat,
like.

Put her close to me.

The two girls ran off.

I put my hand over her mouth, stopped
her screaming, but she wouldn't stop, so

hit her.

She went limp like a doll.

And then what happened?

I wanted to play around with her for a
bit.

I tied her up.

What did you tie her up with?

A bit of rope.

Where did you get that from?

From my pocket.

Always carried bricks and bobs around
with me.

So is she still alive after you hit her?

She's still warm, yeah.

I took her home.

Carried her there in a sack.

Where did you get the sack from?

Not listening, are you?

I had a chat with the squirrels, eh?

Why do you want to take her home?

So I can have sex with her in my barn.

Weren't you worried someone might have
seen you?

No, they couldn't, because she was in
the sack.

So you get to your barn, and then what
happens?

I had sex with her.

Was she still unconscious?

Yeah, some of it.

Then she started screaming again, so I
stopped her.

I stuffed something in her mouth.

An old

thought, I think.

Did you ejaculate inside her?

Yeah,

but I'm not stupid.

I used a condom.

What did you do with the condom?

Threw it away.

Where'd you throw it?

In a bin on the way back. On the way
back to where? To the woods where I

her. Was she still alive?

Not sure.

Well, you said earlier this morning that
you'd suffocated her.

Yeah, I did, with a blanket from my
barn.

Right, so she was dead.

Yeah. Now, why do you think you're
having so much trouble remembering where

buried her?

Because it was dark.

Oh, Mike.

It took me ages to clean this up last
night.

Shit, I can't get my files up. I don't
know what you've done, Richard.

They're not fed up cleaning up. It's a
waste of time.

And I've got to cook again for them.
They're always hungry.

I didn't bloody touch your files.

Don't talk to me like that, Richard.

You were on this last night and I
couldn't get them back. You've done the

thing this morning.

But there's nothing else to do. We've
been here all weekend. I didn't even go

into work. I was on the net. I never
went into his files.

You want a coffee, Pat?

No, I think I'll grab something to eat
at the canteen, if that's OK.

Right, there we go.

See you later.

You think I want a coffee?

It's Sunday. You're working today.

Yes, I'm working on a very important
case, Amy.

I'll see you tonight.

Bye, Mike.

Thanks, Satch.

Okay, now I've applied for an extension
to hold Brickman, but we haven't yet

found a body, so we haven't stopped
looking for other suspects.

Tara Mellor and her friend described a
much shorter man of about 5 '8 or 9",

Brickman is 6 '3". Also, Brickman told
us that he'd cut his hand on some barbed

wire on the night, but the Cousins and
the Press, we have no blood from the

wire. Yeah, but there are a lot of
things he did get, right?

I mean, he knew where she was, what she
was wearing, what time it was.

We should charge him with abduction for
now, at least.

I'm afraid I don't agree.

I'm not happy with his evidence, but I
have arranged for FME to take a look at

this cut on his hand.

So, are you saying we got the wrong man?

No, I'm saying that we have to keep an
open mind. We do not as yet have a body.

But Dave's right.

I mean, he knows too much if he's not to
be involved in some way.

He could be covering for somebody else.

Exactly, which is why I need to talk to
the family.

Yeah, you want to say something, Satch?

Well, I'd charge him if I were you.

Yeah, but you're not me, are you, Satch?

Oh, come on, Pat, look.

I know this is your first time out and
everything, but there's no need to go by

the book all the time, is there?

Thank you, Satch.

Oh, has anyone managed to talk to
Crispin Yates yet about his concert

cancelled?

Well, I suggest you get on with it.

Oh, have you organised this ID parade
for Tara Mellor and her friend?

No, not yet.

Right.

Well, the girls are still very upset and
the parents don't want to put them

through the ordeal when he's already
admitted he's done it.

Have you done anything, Satch?

I've got forensics over at Brickman's
place.

So if he did take her back to his barn,
we'll find out, won't we?

He'll have left some evidence.

Hello? Hello, who is this?

Mike, it's Eric, Lynn's boyfriend.

I need to speak to you about something.
Have you got a minute?

Yeah. I wanted to explain it to you
before she did because it wasn't right.

know that.

I'm distraught about what happened and I
want to take the record straight. How

did it happen?

We got into an argument last night and
she started yelling at me.

I've never hit a woman before in my
life. I swear to you, it just happened.

May God forgive me.

I'm so ashamed.

Yeah, where did this happen?

Uh, here on a holiday.

Where's Lynn now?

I don't know.

She left me here, but I want to make
sure you know that it was nothing. I

touched her. I swear on my life.

She gone home?

I don't know.

I've been calling and calling.

That's why I've rung you. I really care
about her. I want you to know that. I

want you to approve of me. Yeah, yeah, I
hear you, Eric. Listen, just hang up

and let me call Lynn.

Just hang up.

He could have opened his very own sex
shop with all that porn.

Okay.

Who's that?

Well, whoever it is, it's the exact
description those girls gave.

He even got the beard.

You're still not convinced it's
Brickman?

Brickman's six foot three. The girls
described someone as five foot eight or

nine. Same height as this guy.

On the I North, this is DC West.

All right.

I'm Alan Brickman.

Bob's brother.

I hope that light ain't going to make
too much noise.

Mum's very distressed.

I've had the local GP in with her.

She didn't sleep last night.

She's not very strong. She had a stroke
a while back.

Sister and your mum live here, yeah? And
Donny.

Stop playing the guitar now!

Sorry about that.

That's Donny.

I don't know how he's going to react to
any of this.

I haven't told him anything yet.

He's a bit sensitive.

Donny, stop it now!

See you, son.

No. No, he's parts.

All right. Does his wife live here?

They were never actually married.

She sort of lived with him for a bit,
then upped and left.

She let us have custody, though.

Now, as you know, we've been
interviewing your brother about the

Jane Mellor.

Now, he tells us that he brought her
back to his barn, where he raped her,

then he killed her.

Yeah, well, I know it was bad when they
wouldn't release him last night.

He called here.

Were you here last Wednesday afternoon?

Wednesday. Pardon.

Well, I usually pick up Donnie from
school about four.

Bob don't drive, you see. And then we
come home and I have a cup of tea with

and then I went back to work till about
seven.

And did you see your brother at all that
day?

No, as far as I can remember, I didn't
know.

To be honest, we don't really see that
much of him.

Yeah, why doesn't he live here with you?

So he wanted it.

Bob don't work.

So he can't afford a flat or to look
after Donny, so we came to an

So he doesn't work, what's he do?

He maintains a house in the garden.

As you can see, he don't make that good
a job of it.

But he looks after Mum.

Well, he's around if she needs it.

Your brother ever have a beard?

A beard?

Yeah, he does sometimes.

Do you remember if you had one last time
you saw him?

Yeah, I think so, yeah.

You said Donny's mother lived here for a
while. What's her name?

Sharon. Sharon Fernley.

Now, why did she leave?

She was a complete tart.

A real tough woman that he insisted on
bringing into the house.

Her mum had heart failure.

She's common as muck.

We only put up with her because she was
pregnant and then when she realised she

couldn't squeeze any more cash out of
us, she ran off.

I don't believe this is happening.

And how long ago was this?

Well, Donnie was five, so that'd be
1998.

I've no idea where she is now.

I haven't heard from her since she left.

Had you ever met Jane Mellor before?

No.

I'm sorry, I'll go and shut him up.

Sorry, you don't understand what's
happening.

Actually, we do need to have a quick
word with your mother.

All right, then.

She's upstairs.

Down the bottom on the left.

That's enough!

Now get downstairs!

I goaded him and he just went into a
temper.

He didn't mean to hit me.

I wanted to call you to see if the kids
were alright and he said it wasn't

necessary and I said it was.

You know how I can get.

He said...

It was the whole weekend and I was
worrying too much to enjoy it, but I

Mike. I just wanted to know they were
all right.

I went into a phone box and he followed.

He was trying to get the receiver out of
my hand when it happened.

It was an accident. He didn't mean it.
Well, he obviously scared you enough for

you to run off.

Hey, that's a beaut.

Look, the food looks worse than it is.

Yeah.

No, Glenn, I didn't like the idea that
he called me at home.

I'd better get back to the kids. I left
them with a neighbour. Do you mind?

I'll order you a cab.

Eric's got my car.

He's got your car.

It's all right. He'll bring it back.

You're not still going to see him, are
you? No.

But I have to see him to get my car
back. Your mother's coming for a few

What?

What the hell is she doing coming down?

To see her grandchildren.

I was going to ask you and Pat over for
dinner.

No, Glenn, Pat is really busy at the
moment and so am I. You know, I'm

shortlisted for commander. The last
thing I need is having...

Go talk to the police ladies now, Donny.

Go and watch TV.

Can I too? My word.

I'm Pat. This is Lisa. Hi, Donny.

You're not going to ask him about this
now, are you?

No, no, no. If we have to talk to him,
we'll have a child protection officer

with us.

Donny!

TV now. Go on.

He's good.

Does he take lessons?

He used to.

Who taught him?

Someone up at the local school.

Can you remember a name?

Mr Yates, I think.

Crispin Yates.

Did Jane Mellor ever teach him?

No.

No.

Are you sure that you never met Jane
Mellor?

It's just that Crispin Yates and Jane
Mellor were very close friends.

I've never met her.

I'd like a check on Alan Brickman's
whereabouts on the day and night of the

abduction. And before you ask, he fits
the exact description that those two

little girls gave. So you're saying they
did it together?

Very possibly. We have a good brother,
we have a very bad brother. Either they

did it together or else the bad one is
covering up for the good one.

Bob Brickman is suspiciously keen to get
himself arrested for this, which makes

me a bit nervous.

OK, what else we got?

Oh, the FME says the cut on Brickman's
hand is definitely not from barbed wire.

More likely done with a serrated edge,
and you were right.

It's relatively fresh, too fresh to have
been done on Wednesday, so he's lying

about that.

Right. Doug?

Forensics found items of female
underwear and a pair of Wellington

none of the clothes he claims to have
been wearing.

OK. The boots are being tested to see if
the mud matches samples taken from the

woods. Oh, I went to interview Crispin
Yates, but James Mellor said he had a

headache and couldn't be interviewed.

Well, we'd better go back with some
aspirin. Lisa, would you check to see if

James Mellor was at the school that
night as he said he was? Right. Hang on,

we putting them in the frame now?

Crispin Yates taught Donny Brickman
piano. Crispin Yates also failed to

that his concert in Paris was cancelled.
What I'm saying is there are links and

these need to be sorted out.

OK, I think that's it. Thanks, everyone.

All right, let's get on.

How many more suspects does she need?

I can't seem to find any of the clothes
that you said you were wearing on that

day, the day that Jane Mellor was
abducted.

That's because I got rid of them.

Where?

Burnham.

Where did you burn them?

In the woods.

What about the Wellies?

They were brand new, girl.

Did Jane Mellor teach Donny piano?

No. I never knew before I told you.

What about Crispin Yates?

Who?

Crispin Yates. You don't recognise the
name?

No.

Your son, Donny, takes music lessons
from him.

Maybe, I don't know.

That's why he's all taken care of by
Alan.

He looks after him more than I do.

Your brother seems to take care of most
things in your family.

Yeah, he's a good man, my brother.

Runs the family business, runs the home.

provides for you and your son. I mean,
you could say that you owe your brother

lot, yeah?

Yeah? Yeah, I'd be in the shit if it
weren't for him, all right?

Was your brother at home on that
afternoon?

I don't know! And I don't like the way
you keep asking these questions about

Alan!

I told you what I'd done!

I want Britain in full milk first. She's
still got everyone's first in the

woods.

Then split them into two teams.

Good night, Amy.

Night, Dad. Night, Rich.

Night.

At least he brought your girl back.

Make sure you don't see him again. No,
no, I won't. It's over.

No, it's OK. It's fine. I've put ice on
it.

You will call me, sweetheart, if you
need me. Yes, I will, Mike. Yes, but

worry. We'll be fine, really.

Your mother's coming tomorrow. Why don't
I cook us all a nice casserole? Your

favourite. Say about seven.

OK.

All right.

Be good, kids.

It's just Eric's little joke, isn't it?

I'm done with you, son of a wimp.

I've just come from seeing Donny
Brickman. You want to look at the tape?

Yeah, yeah. Do you get much of him?

Not a lot, but he's certainly liked the
thing a lot. Now, if you ask me, he

almost talks via the thing.

He's very monosyllabic.

It's difficult to keep his attention.

Do you think he's done what's going on
with him? Well, more than he did when

last spoke to him. He's been kept off
the floor, so he knows some things up.

OK, so we've got a lot of his Jimi
Hendrix at first.

Okay, look, this is where I really got
started.

Now, what's what he does with his
health?

Do you recognise this lady, Jenny?

Yeah. That's Kristen's friend.

And who's Kristen?

My teacher.

Does Kristen come to your house to teach
you?

No. Goes with school.

When did you meet Crispin's friend,
Dominic?

She was at school sometimes, when I had
my lessons.

Who takes you there?

Uncle Alan did.

Did he?

Don't you go anymore?

No. Why is that?

They had a fight.

Who had a fight?

Uncle Alan and Crispin.

Where did they have this fight at
school?

No, here.

Was anyone else there when they fought?

What's this thing saying there, Johnny?

This is a postcard.

What's this thing saying there's no
answer when they have to fight?

Stop playing with me, Johnny, and
I'll... Please, and I'll... Johnny.

He eventually stopped smashing my car,
but he still wouldn't talk.

In fact, I couldn't get another word out
of him. Plenty caught me a hell of a

whack on the ankle.

He obviously knows more than he's
saying.

Yeah, that's good.

Now, listen, you've got to borrow it on
the fifth and then play it on the

seventh, yeah?

Great, great. All right.

Now, put it on the speaker. Just let me
hear it one more time.

Yeah!

Yeah, darling.

That's great, boy.

That's great.

That's beautiful.

Yeah.

Hello, Mr. Yates. Can we have a word?

Why?

We've just heard that your concert in
Paris was cancelled.

Why didn't you tell us?

I don't know.

I guess I didn't think it was important.

I was still in Paris at the time I said
I was.

Surely it doesn't make any difference to
you what I was doing there.

Did you ever teach a Donny Brickman?

Yes. What's this got to do with Jane?

Why did you stop teaching him?

You'll have to ask his uncle that.

Why are you asking me about Donny?

Donny tells us that you had a fight with
his uncle, Alan Brickman. Now, what was

all that about?

Donny is incredibly talented.

Easily good enough to get a scholarship.

And I thought it would be good for Donny
to live away from home for a bit.

Concentrate on his music.

Why are you asking me about Donny
Portman?

Did Jane ever meet either of the
Brickman brothers?

Oh, yes.

Yes. I took Jane with me to talk to Alan
Brickman because she's on the board of

a music school I wanted Donny to go to.

She knows more about it than me.

Oh, my God, is he involved with Jane's
disappearance?

Is that what you're saying?

James! James, come in here!

What is it?

They're asking me about the time I went
to the Brickmans.

Why do you want to ask about that?

I was the one who took her there.

Look, I'm sorry, Mr Mellor. We really do
need to speak to Mr Yates on his own.

I'm here when you're done, Crispin.

Thanks.

So, you and Jane both went to the
Brickman's house, yeah?

Yeah, took me once weeks ago.

And how did Alan react to this
suggestion about a scholarship?

Mr Yates?

He refused to even listen.

I tried to explain what a chance it
would be for Donny.

He became very angry.

And then when Jane tried to explain how
she felt it would be beneficial for

Donny to be removed from the pressures
at home, he went crazy.

How? Why? What did he do?

He held abuse at us. He head -butted me
in the face.

Then when Jane tried to get him off me,
he grabbed her by the hair.

If you shouted at him, she shouted she
called the social services.

It was horrible. Worse because Donny was
there.

Brickman was like a madman.

And you are talking about Alan Brickman
here, not Bob Brickman, not the brother?

Yeah.

But the two of them are both nuts.

Why do you think we wanted to get Donny
away?

It's tragic because the boy is so
talented, but his environment... His dad

only guitar.

His uncle plays only piano.

Donnie smashes up the music room. What?

We left him alone in the music room at
school.

He just went crazy.

Started smashing up the instruments.

His so -called family has turned him
into this confused monosyllabic animal.

Did you report this to social services?

No.

The school kept it all quiet because
Alan paid for the damages and made a

donation to the school.

Please, what has this got to do with
Jane?

Oh, my God.

It's Alan.

He did it, didn't he?

We don't know that, Mr Yates.

Oh, beautiful.

Smells perfect, ma.

I got the train.

I think it would have been quicker to
walk.

Took twice the time it should.

Open the winding.

I've got something to celebrate.

Have you?

I wonder where that could be, then.

Hey, don't tell me. I know.

You've won the lottery and you're going
to be splitting it with me so that I can

retire.

Jimmy's coming home.

What?

What's he done now?

Come on, tell me.

They throw him out to New Zealand?

Don't start.

He's got a big job in Florida.

And he's rearranged his journey to come
through London so he can see me.

I knew it. I knew there was something
behind you coming down. Bloody Jimmy.

It's been ten years.

I'd like to see him before I die.

Ma.

I'd like it even more if you two made
up.

There is nothing to make up, Ma. You
know how I feel about him.

He is no good. He never was.

And ten years without him is ten years
without aggravation. The minute he

foot over my door, I guarantee you'll
cause trouble.

Why don't you give him the benefit of
the doubt?

It's written to me every few months.

How much did he tap you for?

He's bad news, Ma. You can't force me to
see him.

And if he hadn't taken that plane ticket
that I paid for, he'd still be behind

bars right now. Where the hell's Len?

She's putting the kids to bed.

She's a wonderful mother.

Don't bloody start. Don't start on that.
She's not my wife now, you know.

She's got this household of herself
which is bankrupt in me.

So are you getting married to Pat then?

When we've got a second, we will.

Pat's busy with this big case and I'm...

I'm up for commander.

I'm going to be top of the tree, ma.

So you should be big enough to see your
brother.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, this is the place.

Mr. Brickman, why have you brought us
here?

We asked you to show us where you put
Jane's body, not where you abducted her.

I know where I am, all right?

Don't you worry about that, eh?

Come. Oi, don't do that!

You said you buried the body near the
pond. Are you now saying that you buried

her here?

You spurred her up by the bush here.
Look, I'll show you. Go on.

I'll bloody well warn you. Mr. Brickman,
show us where you buried the body. We

are getting sick of your games.

Come on. I've had enough of this. Right,
here, come on. Give it to me.

Look at my wrist.

Right. Any more funny business from you
and I'll bloody deck you on, all right?

Yeah, this looks familiar.

Satch! Wait there.

Look at the height difference.

What do you mean?

Could be his brother.

Hey, boy, past your bedtime.

Three more circuits, then we put the
lights out, yeah?

Don't put the lights out.

I don't want the lights out.

OK.

All right, we'll leave them on.

There's nothing bothering you at school,
is there?

Mm -hmm.

Hey, you would tell me if there was
anything troubling you, wouldn't you?

If there was anything, huh?

You're not here anymore.

I know, but that doesn't mean I'm not
around for you.

If you ever need me, all you've got to
do is tell Mum and she'll call me, OK?

Hey, better still, you can call me
yourself.

You still got my number?

Then I'm going to go and see Mum.

And I'll come and see you before I
leave.

Did you tell Dad?

Don't worry, Richard. Eric's not coming
back.

Mummy promised.

He took my front door keys.

The ones with the monster ring.

Really, really sorry. Are you okay?

No harm done. Just an accident.

My fault.

You sure? You sure you're okay?

Oh, this is very nice.

Very nice indeed.

What? Yeah, comfortable.

Thank you.

What do you think?

You make a mess like to eat it.

I can

smell

you.

Dirty thing.

Dirty boy. Get a smack.

Hello, Harry.

Hello, Harry.

Yes, hello, Harry.

So,

are you

feeling positive?

More, yeah. More than that, I've cracked
all this computer jargon which I know

they'll ask me about.

I'm ready for anything they can fire at
me.

I'll tell you this.

None of the other candidates have got my
25 years' experience behind them.

Most of them just seem like kids fresh
out of training school.

Tell you what, Pat.

I really need this.

I don't think I've been through
worthwhile.

Hey, that's enough about me.

How's it going?

Oh, slowly we've got two dysfunctional
families, one slightly more so than the

other.

Tell me about it. What family isn't
these days?

Kids. Oh, shit, Abe.

This race is blunt. You've been using
this to shave your legs with.

No, I have not. I've got my own.

Oh, God.

You should tell your children not to eat
so much chocolate.

Anything bothering you?

You worried about the case?

Just after a lot better when...

When we can find the body.

Well, if you want some advice from an
almost commander, arrest the bastard.

No, I was worried that he, Yates I mean,
was trying to push Donnie too hard.

He's a sensitive kid.

And Bob don't help.

He wants him playing muddy waters and
Yates wants him doing Chopin and trying

please them both. It confuses him.

Didn't he vandalise the school music
room?

No. It's only a couple of instruments. I
pay for them.

Right.

Did Crispin Yates ever come here?

Yeah.

We had a few terse words.

Oh.

And when you had these terse words, was
anyone else here?

Donnie.

No one else?

No.

with someone else.

All right, because I have a problem
here. Is that someone else with Jane

And both Crispin Yates and Donny seem to
think there was something much more

than just a few terse words.

Okay, they're ready.

Yes. Tara knows what's expected of her,
and she's not scared, are you?

Tara. Hey.

Good. And you mustn't worry if he's not
there, OK?

I've explained it all to her. She knows
he won't definitely be there.

Good. OK. You can share through. Thanks,
Barbara.

Thank you, Tara.

Inspector North.

I don't really approve of this. I don't
think it's necessary.

We've admitted it, haven't we?

People do lie, Mr. Mellor. Surely not
about something as horrendous as this.

Oh, yes. Afraid they do.

We interviewed the school caretaker. He
says he's pretty sure that you weren't

there the night that your wife
disappeared.

Then he is mistaken.

She didn't pick him up.

All right, well, we'd better get in that
other little girl, um, Diana.

Are you sure you want to?

Tarimella was pretty upset.

Yeah, I need a positive ID, otherwise
DPS will let him go.

The caretaker said I wasn't at the
school.

I can't lie anymore.

I can't. We're in too deep not to.

Do you reckon James Mellor's bisexual?

Not a bit of a shirtlifter.

Something about this TV is very
friendly.

Doesn't ring true.

Hi, Lynn.

Go away, Eric!

Lynn, Lynn, let me in. We have to talk.

I told you last night. It's over.

If it's over, I'm going to kill myself,
Lynn.

Please, don't knock me out.

Lynn, don't do this to me.

You know how much you mean to me.

I love you, Lynn. You know that.

Please, open the door and let me in.

Let me explain. Please don't finish with
me.

I'm pulling flowers.

Number six.

Number six.

It's bedtime now, Donny.

Plug your guitar. Come on, it's late
now.

Here.

Take the torch, go back to the house.
Take a nap, Granny.

What's the matter, Donny?

Dad said I could play here.

Help my dad.

I've told you, he's not coming home,
he's got to go to court. I've told you

this, I've told you.

I want my dad.

If I wanted to, I could take that guitar
away from you.

I'd pay for it and I can take it away.

Now go to bed, now!

Pack it away, Donny.

I want my dad. Yeah, but I'm the only
dad you've got now.

So pack it away now.

Right. Let's go in.

You're not my dad.

I don't want to put you to any trouble.

It's all right.

I've got to stay in London to see my
Jimmy and I didn't know where else to

Oh, I'd had enough of being at Lynn's.

Listen, tell you what, why don't you go
into the kitchen and put the kettle on

and have a cup of tea? Oh, I'd like one.

My nerves are in shreds.

You've hardly any milk.

There should be a fresh pint.

You know, Lynn's getting herself into
trouble, if you ask me.

That's why I left. I couldn't stand
being under the same roof a minute

As Lynn?

No, that new boyfriend of hers. He's
moved in.

He's what?

The kids say he stays in bed most of the
day.

Why didn't you call me?

Oh, don't put me in the middle of it
all.

If only... Jimmy could have made it up
to Scotland to see me.

I fixed his old room up specially for
him.

You think he'd notice?

Yes, he would. He's not like you.

Jimmy was always the artistic one.

Oh, yeah, you called being a lazy bum
artistic.

Yes, it was.

He took your dad leaving badly.

Not like you.

You never cared one way or the other.

But Jimmy, oh, Jimmy cried his... heart
out.

That's why he started diving off school,
getting into trouble.

You're still out, aren't you?

Always making excuses for him. He's my
son.

And he may not be the best, but when
your dad left, he was younger than you.

Look, why don't you just put another
bloody record on, Ma?

I'm getting really, really tired of
hearing the same worn -out old excuses.

You had every girl running after you.

There was no need to run after Jimmy.

Look, I'm not even going to go there,
OK?

But it takes two to tango, Martin. If
you'll excuse me, I'm going to go and

Lenny.

Hi.

Hi, sweetheart. I'm sorry. I've got to
go and see Lenny.

Oh, fine.

Hello, Violet.

Look, I hate to do this to you, but
she's staying over just for one night.

Lenny's got that sickle round. That's
why I'm out there.

See you later, Mum.

Good to see you again, Violet.

It's been a while.

Now, can we have a cup of tea?

You have no milk.

Oh.

I thought we had a fresh pint this
morning.

Well, there's none left now.

Where are the kids?

In bed, asleep.

Well,

that Eric bloke's moved in, according to
Mum.

He just stayed one night, that's all.

Not that there's any business of yours.

Mum said he's living here.

Well, he's not.

What are you interrogating me for?

Well, I've got a lot on my plate right
now, and all I seem to be doing is

looking out for you and for my kids. A
bit late to start doing that, isn't it?

What's that supposed to mean? You left
us, remember, and you've got no right

barging in here telling me who I can
have to stay and who I can't.

Right, fine.

You have it your way, sweetheart.

What I would say is that any man who
smacks a woman around is a worthless

bastard and has no balls.

It was my fault, I told you.

How, uh... How do the kids get on with
this Eric?

Fine. They like him. Yeah, well, you
tell him for me. He touches a hair on

heads and I will come after him and
there will be no hiding place. You tell

Eric. What's his last name?

So you can check up on him.

Go away, Mike.

I don't want you intruding in my life.

Leave me alone.

Come after him and there'll be no hiding
place.

You're going to tell me that?

Please, don't. I don't want to argue
with you. He's a wanker and he should

to show me some respect.

What does he think he's talking about?
Says I've got no balls.

I'll show him who's got balls. And why
didn't you tell him I was living here? I

didn't want to get into an argument. I
don't now.

Don't frighten the kids.

You put them before everything. Before
yourself.

It's the kids, kids, kids, till I'm sick
of hearing about your kids.

Kids! Kids!

They're spoiled rotten. They've got no
respect for you and none for me.

Let me tell you, when I'm finished with
them, they'll respect me.

I love you, Lim.

Doesn't that mean anything to you?

I am in love with you.

All I'm doing is proving to you how much
I love you.

No more threats, eh?

You and me make a good team together,
don't we?

You love me, don't you?

Well, then say it.

Go on.

Tell me how much you love me.

I love you.

And you need me, don't you?

Yes.

Yes, I need you.

Drop it!

Go buy your basket.

You go back to my place. I'll call a
cab.

It'll be okay.

How is he?

I'm fine, I'm fine. You stay in the
house with her.

Richard's peed in the bed and it's all
wet.

Oh, OK.

Mike, I've got to go now. I'll speak to
you later. Bye.

It's OK, Richard, don't worry.

Accidents happen.

And you've been through a horrible
scare, haven't you?

It was just a scare, wasn't it? Eric
couldn't try and hurt you or anything.

But these are your daddy.

I've left the chain on him. Stay here.
I'll be back in a minute.

I've got you, Mike.

Hang on.

Hey, hello.

Part, oh, sorry, sweetheart, I was fast
asleep.

Anything wrong?

Christ, are you okay?

How are the kids and mum?

Did you call the local police?

Yeah, do you want me to come home?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.

No, no, no, I'll have a word with them.

Now, something's got to be done about
this lunatic, absolutely.

Look, yeah, yeah, yeah, call me when
they've been round.

Yeah, I love you.

No more games, Lynn.

That maniac's been round to my face
trying to smash his way in.

Oh, my God. Are the kids all right?

Yeah, they're fine. So is part of my
mum. Thanks for asking. The cops are on

their way round.

Listen, what's his last name? I'm not
messing about any longer.

Knowles. It's Eric Knowles.

Got an address for him?

He's been living here. I don't know
where else he stays.

What about the gym where you met him?

Have they got an address?

Was he a member?

I didn't meet him at the gym.

He told me that's where you met him. I
lied.

I just didn't want you interrogating me.
Where the hell did you meet him?

On the internet.

I went into one of the chat rooms.
That's how we met.

I've never been to where he lives. I've
no idea where it is.

Yeah, but you better stop thinking where
he might be because that nutcase is

going nowhere near my kids again. Take a
look at yourself, woman!

My God, he's beating you up as though
he's going for me and the kids.

You really have to be involved if you
want to make things work. Everybody told

you. You ever think maybe I'm terrified
of him? You think I don't know what will

happen? Arrest him, he gets bail, and if
he goes to court, what will he get? A

few hours community service and then
he's released.

I don't want any trouble because he'll
make me pay for it. For God's sake, I'm

police officer.

I can get that piece of shit off the
streets.

I can get a court order that will have
him arrested if he comes within 50 yards

of you. I feel safe with that, will I?
You know better than anybody. Court

orders get broken. All you're doing is
making him more and more angry.

I'm so tired.

I can't think straight.

I'll stick around for a bit, see if he
comes back.

You should come to bed.

No, thanks for asking.

I wasn't inviting you into mine.

Okay, what did he come on as?

Freeman.

Right,

so you think he'll be online this time
of the day, yeah?

Well, he might be.

He spent hours on this chat room. It's
where we used to talk.

Yeah, well, that's what we used to do.
Listen, why don't you go and put the

dinner on and leave me to it? I think I
can take it from here. But you don't

know what we said in our chat.

I think I've got a pretty good idea.

You want to shift this lot?

I've got thoughtless, but that'll take
forever.

When was it last shifted?

We had a delivery last week.

Thought that hadn't been touched for a
couple of months.

I know what you're looking for.

There's no way it could be under that
lot. No way.

Besides, you start shifting it, where
are you going to put it?

There's no room anywhere.

Problems at home.

What's up?

Sorted. So how's it all going?

Well, we've done the barn here, the
shed, his offices, the woods round the

And they're just having a look at some
of the timber piles down the lane.

What about those? You've done those?

Oh, God, you know I missed that last
bit, did you?

Yep. The spikes are breaking. Let me see
