I was waiting to go to the institute
dinner with you and I found myself
in a surgical supply store.

It's breathable and waterproof.
It's a totally new fibre.

On tests it exceeds the new American
Medical Association standard for
biological protection. Does it?

It's non-flammable. Oh, that's
handy, is that why it's yellow?

It isn't yellow. It's pumpkin.

It goes with anything.
And that's where you got that? Yeah.

Oh, ye gods! You should've
worn it to the dinner.

It would have camouflaged the
spill from Nikki's pina colada.

It was a tiny splash. It wasn't
the size, it was the location.

Anyway, it's given me the idea
for my lecture.

Wait a minute, you are proposing to
deliver a lecture to a room full
of students wearing that? Yeah.

Excellent!

Hi, everybody. Excuse me. Sorry.

Er, Nigel, can you put that in a
t-shape, thanks.

All right, everybody, gather round,
short ones at the front, tall ones
at the back. Dead ones on the slab.

I'm Doctor Cunningham, I'm going
to be your pathologist for the day.

The theme, the title of my lecture
today, "Shop till you drop,"

occurred to me rather fortuitously
actually, while I was, well,
shopping, obviously.

You might not think that shopping
has anything to do with pathology,
but you'd be wrong.

Every new year,
I and my colleagues deal with dozens

of bodies of people who have been
flattened in the January sales.

No... What am I talking
about shopping for? This man

went abroad for a transplant.

He shopped on the global
medical market for a new kidney.

Are you all right, you
didn't know him, did you?

Anybody feels queasy, please don't
throw up on the technicians,
it depresses them.

Either sit over there or even better
go outside and get some fresh air.

OK, everybody ready, we'll begin.

DJ: 'Good morning, it's just coming
up to 8 o'clock, if you're not up
yet, then shame on you.

'Get out of bed,
it's a beautiful day.

'It won't last long, the forecast for
tonight is rain, rain and yes,
you guessed it, more rain.

'All across the capital.
So don't say you weren't warned.

'We have an exclusive interview with
the hottest new band in town.

'And no wonder...'

DOORBELL RINGS

You OK?
I'm waiting for Professor Dalton.

He shouldn't be long. We've met.

Have we? I was at your lecture.

"Shop Till You Drop". Oh, were you?
You haven't come to complain
or anything, have you? Oh, no.

Here's the man.

Sorry...traffic.

Holly Park?

Farr. Farr. Yeah.

Do sit down.

A well-defined impact
impression to the left chest.

And brush abrasions to both hips.

Nine-year-old boy, RTA.

Leo's talking to a student.

Student? Yeah, young student.
Have you got a moment?

Harry Cunningham, Nikki Alexander.

This is Holly Farr from Guy's. We've
agreed take her on an elective.

She was so inspired by your lecture,
"Shop Till You Drop," that she
decided to become a pathologist.

So I thought you
could be her mentor. OK.

Seems you already are. OK?

Thank you.

Hello, again.

Hi. Hi.

We need to take casts and photographs
of this to match it to a vehicle.

So the wedge-shaped fragments just
sitting left to right, yeah?
In the upright position? Yeah. OK.

Nigel, can you finish up, please?

OK, was that interesting?

Medical school says pathology is a
lot about death.

But it's entirely about life. How?

It's the one time you feel,

I don't know, you have access to the
whole life in front of you.

It's not just symptoms. True.
Perhaps you don't like to admit to
having a sense of power.

No, perhaps we don't.
Not failed healers at all.

No. You need to learn
how to write reports.

Oh, you will let me know
when you're paged, won't you?

Well, suppose it's the middle of
the night? I'll leave my phone on.
I'll send you the number.

OK.

OK.

She's with me. OK.

You haven't
got any ID, so stay close.

The SOCO's will give a suit.

They'll have cleared a path up to
the body so you stick on it, OK.

Oh, by the way, a SOCO is a...
I know what a SOCO is.
I'm going to sign in.

They're here now. Thank you.
You can assist me but don't touch
anything without asking, all right?

Good evening. Dawson.
Hi. Crime Scene Manager.

This was called in by a driver who
saw what he thought was a dummy by
the road.

They always think it's a dummy. Why?
Because the victim is naked.
Well, nearly naked.

The driver was in an artic so he had
a higher angle of vision than a car
or SUV driver.

What's "nearly naked" mean?
A silk robe, dressing-gown got
bunched up round her middle.

What trace evidence do you want?

We want swabbing of all the
exposed skin for DNA contact,
fibres, particles, sexual contact.

There's more support on its way.
Bravo one over... Go ahead, please.

Holly.

She's had her throat cut.

But there's not enough
blood around here.

So it was done somewhere else?
Exactly.

The SIO's here.

Detective Superintendent Barker.

Doctor Harry Cunningham.

This is Holly Farr.
We're about to swab.

Swab away. We will.

Prof Mander.
She's attached to the Home Office.

What can I do for you?

I'm, er,
interested in roadside bodies.

Have you got a provisional cause of
death yet?

Her throat's been cut. There is a
deeply incised wound to the throat.
She was found undressed?

Like this? Yes.
We are about to turn her over.

Ready.

Did someone cut the face off?

Looks like it.

It's not like
anything I've seen before.

But I'd like to stay with it.

Come with the police to the PM.

We're done.

OK? Yeah, OK.

I can make us some coffee.

Yeah.
I could really use some coffee.

Black, white? Decaf? Black please.

Extra caff.

I've never been squeamish.
Not once in my life ever.

How many murder victims have
you seen in your life ever? True.

You share this place, do you?

No.

My father bought it for me. On
condition I went to medical school.

Is he a doctor?

He has a mobile phone company.

Way up in the frozen north.

Lapland? Blackburn.

Ahhh. 4,000 holes. That's the place.

So what does your wife
think about your work?

I'm not married.
Your girlfriend then.

What makes you think
that I have only got one girlfriend?

The Met have been on the phone
every half hour. Twice, actually.

I told them you needed your
beauty sleep. Thanks.

Where's our student? There.
Morning. Hi.

Hi. They want a PM ASAP. Some
worry about possible connections.

There was a geographical
profiler out last night.
She wants to come to the PM.

Do we have the phone number of
the SIO? I expect that's him now.

Hi. Leo Dawson. Doc.

Detective Superintendent Barker.
Doc Alexander.

Janet Mander. Hi.

Prof Mander, actually.

I'm an anthropologist
attached to the Home Office.

Well, I don't think there's a
rash of these across the country.

She was found 500 yards from the M4
slip way. We're flagging up anything

that could be linked through the
motorway network. We've got no
missing person report, no DNA match.

Doc Cunningham warned there
may be a problem with the teeth.

We'll come to that.
Are we all ready? Within reason.

She questions my taste.

A clean incision which
has severed the trachea

and carotid arteries.

There will have been blood loss
precipitating collapse of blood
pressure and hypovolaemic shock.

It is a left right cut,
suggesting a right-handed
assailant attacking her from behind.

The face. Yes, skilfully done.
There's no slashing to the bone.

The tricky part is here, under the
jaw, and around the eye sockets.

Have you done it?
Is it something that you do?

We sometimes have to do something
similar, yeah. How long would it
take? A few minutes.

If you've had years of practice.

Puncture wounds...healed.

Skin-popping around the marks. The
toxicology screen will show whether
drug use is current or historic.

I saw more evidence of self
injection when I was looking for
sexual assault at the scene.

Look, sinus tracks around the groin.

What's the problem with the teeth?
We may not get odontology.
They're not her teeth?

Prolonged use of opiates is
associated with poor nutrition,
gum disease, self-neglect.

All these can lead to loss of teeth.

And this lady had a full set of
implants. It could be cosmetic,
but in this case but I'm pretty sure

it's connected with long-standing
drug use. That's why we won't
get a dental record.

Someone did the implants. You could
put the images out there and see
if anyone identifies their work.

Slow and random.
We need to know who this is.

Janet says if this connected to
her other cases, then the killer
has bigged up the violence.

I think I know what Professor Mander
is looking for.

I did a PM about
four years ago on a girl who was
found by a London motorway.

She'd been raped. Correct.

And there are what, five others
found across the country?
Yes. In 12 years.

I don't remember any of them
being found nearly naked though.

No. And it seems that there was no
sexual assault in this case either.

All right, OK.
Until we know who this is we
don't know what we're dealing with.

What can you do about the face?

You mean, can we rebuild it?
Faces take time.

They are a last resort.

What's involved? How fast? How fast?

How fast, Nikki? How fast can you
decapitate a fresh corpse, de-flesh
a head and build a new face?

Not as a last resort
mind, but as a quick fix.

Then, when we get the head,
what do we do,
we've got nothing to match it to?

There's no DNA,
there's no missing persons.

There's a missing person, only
she's right here in front of us.

Until we get the face
we're stood still.

He removed this face for a reason.

I want to know what that reason was.

So how do you, um, you know?
De-flesh the head?

You can scrape it, You can boil it.
You can use insects or maggots.
I don't need to know the details.

Cut the damaged flesh away, and
remove the brain, of course, and

put the skull in a solution at 60
degrees Celsius in a fume cabinet.

Why don't we take a cast of the face
and just rebuild from a positive
mould? There you go, a solution.

The solution is washing powder.

Really? Enzyme action.

I keep the brand a secret.
I don't think the manufacturers
would thank me.

We can do something with that
robe thing she was almost wearing,
but it'll take bloody months.

We need that face, Doc.

Yes, Guv.

Guv?

Doc.

Horrible man.

And I sensed romance.

I hadn't fully appreciated
how well this has been done.

You think they've done it before?

Hm. Not even a nick.

There would have been a hell of a lot
of blood around,
if she'd only just been killed.

I want to make sure this
is properly recorded.
Don't worry, Doc. Leave it to me.

Nikki likes to do all that kind of
work by herself.

Is that something you can do?
What that? No way.

You could learn.

Takes years.

I fancy it.

Don't think it is one of yours,
then? Me neither.

Bit of a wild goose chase,
I'm afraid. Not at all.
I'm interested in phatic meanings.

Oh, well, so am I.

Do you have to run, or? Er, no.

Oh. Thanks, Hugo.

Sorry, we don't do trays.

So what is "phatic meaning"?
How do you spell it?

I thought you said you were
interested in phatic meanings.
I wouldn't ask if I wasn't.

But you've never heard the word.
P-h-a-t-i-c.

Phatic.

I must
try and work it into a conversation.

You already have. As in with
someone I can impress with my

learnedness rather than someone
to whom I display my ignorance.

A phatic meaning has a social
meaning rather than a literal one.

"How do you do?" has a phatic
meaning rather than a literal one.
Ah!

Sharing drinks like
coffee has a phatic meaning.

Right.

I did not know the
groin had a sinus.

Opens up all possibilities
for conversational confusion.

Yeah well, actually, it doesn't.
Harry was referring
to an epithelial-lined

passageway created by recurrent
injections and inflammation.

Thank you for clearing that up.
My pleasure.

So you're interested in
the phatic meaning of
what we're dealing with today.

Mmm-hm. As a means to an end,
which is obviously finding
the person behind this.

And you really don't
think it's connected to
any of your other cases?

No. I think this is
a one-off, thank God.

I was thinking about ritual but
it doesn't really fit with ritual.

I think the face was removed
for a very particular reason.

When you said you were an
anthropologist, I thought...

Bone specialist?
No. Anthropology of crime.

It's a field I have
largely to myself.

Sounds interesting.

DJ: 'They just don't make them like
that any more, Supergrass and a
massive number two hit in July '95.

'Police investigating

'They deny there is

Morning.

Ah. Have you had any sleep?

Tox screen.

Peak one, methadone, peak two,
cocaine, peak three, morphine.

Peak four, monoacetyl morphine,
peak five, quinine.

Royal flush.

So is this a new world record, then?

Easily. I held the
previous one too, probably.

That is fantastic. We know the
hair colour, we know the eye colour.

It's Fran Price.

Oh, my God! It's Fran Price.

Who's Fran Price?

Oh, Holly, apparently... Fran Price.

One million plus pages in 0.13
seconds and that's just in English.

I think I recognise her.
This is incredible.

What is all this?
Leonid Polyak. Leonid what?

He was a Russian gangster. She
helped put him away with her show.
He's got to be a suspect.

We've got to get all of this
to Barker. Slow down a second.

Well done for identifying her, if it
is her, but the police will find out
all this by themselves. Yeah.

You are here to learn pathology.
The guv'nor's on his way back.
Fran Price.

Presented a crime show.

Leonid Polyak.

Do you remember?
Uh-huh. It was a cheesy show.

They used CCTV.

Everyone said they were setting
stuff up. It was mainly kids.

Then they caught this big-time
gangster knifing someone outside
a club. That was Leonid Polyak.

Well done. The police will
be really interested in this.

I was just saying that
the police can find out this
kind of thing for themselves

and we probably shouldn't burden
Superintendent Barker with it.

I would. In your lecture you said
forensic pathology was where
medicine connected with justice.

Yes. You talked about how
closely you worked with police.

How sometimes you felt you were
as much a branch of detection
as medicine.

Did I?

It was a figure of speech. Probably
just showing off... actually.

I was just showing you something
I downloaded off the internet,
I've got to go and...

What? She should focus on
forensics, not this kind of...and
you could back me up.

That's rarely any fun. Are you
identifying with her or something?
Or is this some kind of girl thing?

I wonder who put
the "men" in "mentor".

Perhaps who put the U
in pain in the neck.

Fran Price? According to Holly, yes.

A reconstruction is guidance only, of
course. We need DNA, dental records.
Yeah, we've started all that.

Anyway, someone is on his way.

Who? Someone who knew her.

Well, we told him no,
what's not to understand?

It's a derisory offer,
I don't want to

talk to him. You talk to him.
Mr Pargeter? Yeah. Derek Pargeter.

This way, Derek.

Christ Almighty.

MOBILE RINGS

I'll call you back. Could you turn
that off in here, please?
I don't turn this off for anybody.

So what? You want me to identify her?
We'll do that with DNA.
We need to go to her address.

She didn't have an address. She lived
in hotels. Where did you find her?

When did you last see her?
Four days ago.

Discussing her come-back, in a hotel.
Does the press know about this? No.
OK, I'll handle the press.

I'm sorry, Derek. As her agent,
I insist I handle the press.

not a press launch.

I've just told you.

The press on this is my business.

You had a mobile phone number
for her?

Pay as you go.
I know - she told me.

She changed it every week.
What was she frightened of?

Like all celebs.
Everything and everyone.

On your feet! Outside now!

Wait, tell him to wait, yeah.

Oi, this door doesn't work.
You people know how this door works?

I don't think I know what you do
in this outfit. Apart from provide
the cultural framework.

I'm on an elective.

Elective? What's that, then?

I'm a final year medical student.

You're a student?
Is that a problem?

It seems not.

PHONE RINGS
Yeah.

This is going to be huge.

Media, I mean. Doesn't concern us.

We're in the middle of it.
In what way? You know what I mean.

We're in the middle of a lot
of things - look at this.

Am I or am I not entitled to know
what has happened to her?

I feel like I knew her.
She was on TV for years.
I can't believe you didn't see it.

I don't watch much television.
She was so famous, though.

Put it out of your mind.
How do I do that?

Just you try. Look, here's
some reports for you to review.

Listen, don't patronise me.
I'm the one who identified her.

I'm sorry. I'm here to learn,
to be involved. I'm involving you.

I took you out on call.
I know, but now it's like back off.

No, it's just that, in our job,
being involved is a relative term.

That is all I'm saying.

"Doc."

Christ, Nikki didn't like that,
did she?

What? Leo. Yeah.

Oh, really?

OK.

Derek is having difficulties
with all this.

That's understandable.
I've referred him to you
for questions.

OK. Someone cut her throat? Correct.

What else? We're not discussing
other injuries. Raped?

We're not discussing other injuries.

Was she clean? We're not discussing
any details like that.

She told me she was clean. I got her
a new contract. She'd been
out of the business. Rehab.

I made deals on the basis that she
was clean. I got her a book deal.

There were producers interested.
Not just reality either. Or celeb.

Back to what she made her name at.
What's this got to do with us?

This is my reputation on the line.
And we thought you were upset.

All right, Doc, tell him.

She was covered in tracks. She was
using opiates by injection, yes.

I don't want that out there.
What other leads have you got?

Maybe you're missing something here.
Such as?

Me, police officer, you, tosser!

Yeah, yeah. "This has
nothing to do with the press."

Nothing has
nothing to do with the press.

PHONE RINGS

Pargeter...

What an arse.
PHONE RINGS

Yes. OK, I'm on my way.

Piece of work.

Which one?

Hi.

Hiya.

Um.

Are you OK with me?
Sorry? With me coming in.

Just being here, because I...

I'm fine with you being here.

Great.

Do you think Harry's pissed off
because I identified her?
You said I did a good job...

You did fine. Great.

Thanks. I really like you.

I'm flattered.

I wanted to watch you
do the face, but Harry said
you like to work on your own.

Well, maybe next time.

OK. Yeah, great, OK.

'Industry sources have expressed
shock and sadness at the discovery

'at the body dumped by a roadside on
the edge of London

'is former television presenter
and journalist Frances Price.

to comment on speculation
that she suffered special injuries

'but rumours are rife
that she had been mutilated.'

This was posted to the prison
addressed to Leonid Polyak.

It's nothing to do with me.
Frances Price's TV show helped
lead to your conviction for murder.

It was self-defence.
Were you defending yourself
when you contracted her killing?

I know nothing
of this terrible thing.

An act of murderous revenge
wouldn't be out of place
on your CV, would it?

CV? Your history.
When you were in Russia.

Russia is a violent place.

I businessman.

Business is dangerous in Russia.

Someone is trying to frame me
with this.

I had no problem with girl.

She write me letters.

I write back. Letters?

She's interested
in my life in Russia.

Now listen, I agreed
I'd show you how we work. Yeah.

But there are things you have to
remember. The police are OK with it.

OK with what? With me being here.
They said, on the phone.

Who said?
Detective Superintendent Barker.

Oh, good(!)

SHOUTS

This way! This way, luv!

Hey!

Don't do that again. Do what?

We avoid the press. Pathologist.

Let's get suited up.

There's someone
up at that window there.

No footprints.

That's interesting. Doc?

The SOCOs will do blood spatter
for you but I think

she was on her back on the floor
when they removed her face
and that mark was made by her hair.

She was murdered by people
with no feet?

These smears
were probably made by feet.

But as for shoe prints, no, none.

Oh, they carried her away.

Talking of getting carried away.

What?
Leave the expert opinions to me, OK?

Sorry(!)

So they put her
in the car in the garage.
Holly! I think that's right.

Which means she must have
let them into the garage.

Or they let themselves in
after they killed her. We are
not here to speculate for you.

I will swab the floor check the body
for signs of abrasions.
Feel free to leave me to it.

Thank you.

All done, doc?

Yeah.

Coming? Mmm-hmm.

She opened the door.

She knew him. Not necessarily.
She just opened the door.

Death's door.

OK.

We might have found the car.
Do we get to see it?

SOCO will deal with the car.

If you want to see the car
we can take you. We don't need
to see the car at the moment.

So what do you think?
Very odd lack of forensic
information at that crime scene.

Well, what can you do?

Test for a second blood type.

Why? It's routine.
In knife crime you often get
the killer cutting themselves.

There was some blood
on those pages from her book.
You read those pages?

'Course I did. Didn't you?

No.

It's a book, is it?
Chapter one of a book.

Start of it.
More like an introduction.

How can you not be interested
in who did this?

When did I say that? "It's routine."

It's amazing.

What. What's amazing?

RADIO: 'Come on. Fran Price was
hardly the first...' It's amazing.

What. What's amazing?
It's on the radio.
Yes, it's on the radio.

It's on the radio and everyone
wants to know what we know.

What do we know? Well, we don't seem
to know anything.

HE LAUGHS
But no-one knows that.

My thinking is the body was dumped
on the way to the airport.

The blood had soaked through into
the boot liner, which was black.
And then back onto the woman's case.

I thought rental cars
were checked on return.

At busy periods
they just get a quick look over.

Once they've seen the boot
is empty they just push it on.

Don't they check the spare wheel?

Perhaps spare wheel theft
from rental cars is at a low ebb.

The blood is Fran Price's.

Plus...

The welt on the lower torso
and across the upper thigh

matches the boot-fastening
mechanism of the vehicle.

Her house has an integral garage.

But this is a rental car,
it's not her car.

She opens the door to her attacker,
plus she allows him to park in her garage.

Yeah, OK, I'm on my way in a minute.

They've got the CCTV from Heathrow.

At least we've got a picture of it.

They traced the driver
of the rental car.

He flew out to Moscow
on a midday flight.

Name of Akimovich.

They'll have him on camera. Hmm.

Open and shut? Well,
not a very convincing escape plan.

You had some idea
about this being a contract?

Could be a Russian contract.
Of this man in prison? Hmm, Polyak.

He, er...

Where are you going?
- I'll call you.

He's like that, I'm afraid.

You had her killed
because she was writing a book
about you. I don't understand.

Chapter one. All about how
you set up a network in Russia

that connected business and crime,
and you ended up in a Moscow prison.

I was never criminal.
I was businessman. I made enemies.

Come, you show me this book.

You had no right to start
until I was here. You're late.
What have you put to my client?

I invited him to assist me
with my inquiry into
the murder of Frances Price.

I think I have alibi.
Have you any evidence
or is this just a fishing trip?

I had nothing to do with death of
this girl. You knew where she lived.
This is secret? You go.

I want to talk with my solicitor.

Nothing in his cell search.

Nothing in there.
Nothing, nothing, nothing.

HE MOUTHS

So you were on the street
in the middle of London
and you think you saw them?

I wasn't on the street. I was -
not for the first time -

waiting for you so we could go
to the Institute dinner,

so I was on the street then...
but I then went in there.

I saw two men talking Russian, or
something that sounded like Russian,
and they were looking at these.

So? When you come into the country,
you can't carry one

through an airport
so you would have to buy a scalpel
somewhere like this.

CONVERSATION IN RUSSIAN

Suppose you were
travelling as a doctor.

You think she was killed by a doctor?

She would open her door to someone
who looked like a doctor.

Then if the police stop you,
you have a doctor's case.

What was it you were saying
to your lovely young student?

"Resist the temptation to play
detective" was the theme.
I bet it was them.

It's pretty hard to believe.

And they were buying SOCO suits.

HE SPEAKS RUSSIAN

That is what they were buying.

Suits and scalpels. That's why there
were no footprints near the body.

PHONE RINGS

They used SOCO suits
when they removed her face.

Hello?

..Leo asks are we coming back to
work today or are we knocking off
early for the weekend?

Tell him we need to talk to the SIO.
We need to talk to the SIO.
Tell him...

Ow! Leo, we need CCTV footage
from a store in Hudson Street
where I saw two Russians.

Sorry, everyone.

There, that's me.
Yes, I think we get that.

And that's them, and they
bought scalpels, and SOCO suits.

There is no forensic evidence
because of the suits.

There is no clear shot of the guy
in the hat but the one on the left
was more obliging

so we tried matching him up to
the Moscow flight and guess what?

Passport control point 6 at
Heathrow Terminal One. Akimovich.

Or has a passport
that says Akimovich. Prof?

He knows he's going to be
recorded and photographed.
He knows he left the rental car.

He's laying a trail.
I would think so.

The other man could have been
dropped off at the check-in area.

What do the passenger lists show?

The passenger lists won't show
any more than this camera does.

If they travelled as if alone,
then that's what they did.

But one of them
took absolutely no trouble
whatsoever to cover his tracks.

You think the other man is still
here? Mmm hmm. It's possible.

So there could be another target.
Leave the speculation to me, doc.

I thought you'd gone home.

What was going on in there? Nothing.

I'm not supposed to know? Non.

That's right. It's OK.

I have to go.

All right.

Battery. Always the way.

Something's going on
and they won't tell me what.

There might be a second suspect
out there.
Second suspect or second target?

Both?

That's the kind of thing a girl
likes to know about.

Where do you live? Stockwell.
On your own?

On my own, yeah.
Stockwell's on my way.

You going to be my bodyguard?

What? You don't think I'm qualified?
I don't know anything about
your qualifications.

Just like you don't know anything
about mine.
PHONE RINGS

Yeah.

OK.

Battery OK now?

Only me. She's gone home.
And I thought I sensed romance.

There is romance.

But she's a student. That's illegal.

Leo. You and Leo?

Leo and Janet.

..Predicting territorial patterns
of offending.

And I'm interested in social space,
representations of crime

and especially violence
in mass media which...

I've put you off now.
You preferred me when you thought
I was a bone specialist.

No. No, not at all. Really.

Here, try one of those,
they are lovely. Thank you.

You know, at first,
I thought the...

the Price murder
could have been an audition.

Someone's recruiting
for a contract killer.
A random victim as a test.

You mean like someone famous.
Exactly.

Trouble is,
no-one knew where she lived.

That's not a bit far-fetched?

You'd be surprised. Really?
Well, don't let me
kill off a decent theory.

I'm sure it's something you've
done hundreds of times before.
True, but never on a first date.

Most of the time our workload
is pretty heavy, so, er...
So you don't get out much?

Well, not like this perhaps, no.

Just the occasional conference,
and the odd dinner, but...

At least you don't have to
keep your voice down
when you talk about work.

So what about you? I expect you're
out every night of the week. Yeah.

Yeah. It must be tough. Thank you.

Hey. No, no, no, no I'll do that.
Come on. Really, Leo.
You do the next one.

Yeah.

What?

Say it.

My wife

and child, daughter...

..were killed in an car accident
three years ago and...

I find it hard to disconnect with...

The fact that I spend my time
with victims and broken people,

with what happened to them,

to us.

Does that...?

Of course.

Doctor's depressions.

Subconsciously you can come
to believe you're a sort of
lightning conductor for disease

even though you know
that's complete rubbish.

Death isn't a disease
and you don't spread it.

No. I do know that, but...

Just as I don't spread
violent crime.

RADIO: 'The top of the Premiership
three points separate the top clubs

'but Man U have a game in hand so
that could all change this afternoon.

'Meanwhile the Fran Price murder
inquiry has hit
the front pages again today

'with a report suggesting that police
may have found forensic evidence that
could identify the killer or killers.

'Police are staying tight-lipped this
morning and refusing to comment...'

Did you talk to the press?

About what? About anything?
I don't understand.

There are things in the newspapers
that have come from our office.

Why would you think...?
You didn't photocopy
any pictures or reports?

I found a page on the photocopier
after you'd left the office

and now this morning I'm reading
about so-called breakthroughs
in the case.

Now where did this stuff come from?
Wait a minute. What is this?

You cannot talk to the press.
You cannot leak material that
belongs to Her Majesty's Coroner.

Who says I've talked to the press?
Ah!

I wanted to know
what she was writing about.

Polyak was in this prison in Moscow.
He bought his way out.

Where did the newspapers
get this nonsense?

Don't you give all the evidence to
the police? I've watched you do it.

Why would it be me? You're thinking,
"stupid little student kid".

Don't tell me what I'm thinking.
Is that what you thought
when you let me join the team?

I thought you might make a very
good pathologist. And now what?

Now I am asking myself, "How do I
show Holly that there are lines
and that we stay inside them?!"

You stay inside the lines, do you?
Yes! Or is that just what you say
to the young people?

Are you going to throw me out?
Is that what this is about?

This is about seeing whether you
understand what it takes to stay in.

OK. OK.

STARTS ENGINE

So, what's the story?
Have you not read it?

I don't look at newspapers
at the weekend. Maybe you shouldn't.

It's not just the PM report.
It claims the police have
unspecified forensic evidence.

But we didn't find any extra DNA. No.

The SOCOs didn't find
any fibres or prints. Nope.

You're saying Holly called some
reporters and told them we had
forensic evidence that we don't have?

Why would she do that? I don't know.
Have you asked her? Denies it. And?

And now I feel stupid
for having put so much trust in her.

She's an attractive girl.
She flattered you.

Wait. I don't need the flattery
of my students, thanks.

Just because you've never
dissected a flattery gland
doesn't mean you haven't got one.

Leaving that aside, she would be
throwing away her career.

How do you know she wants her career?

You don't know how this lot have
grown up. They're all voyeurs now.

Is that the end of my appointment?

Are you meeting someone unsuitable,
no doubt?

Might be.

Tart. Drunk.

Can I have another one please, mate?
