DRAMATIC MUSIC

Just moments ago,
the court ruled in favour

of the Mayor of Bakerbury
in his libel case

against the Bakerbury Gazette.

Journalist Anton Grant
accused the mayor of exploiting

ex-prisoners in his many
hospitality businesses,

a claim the Mayor
vociferously denied.

A denial of wrongdoing. Ha
Wonders never cease.

Here comes the editor
of the Bakerbury Gazette.

Mr Trotter, what's your response
to losing the case

'No comment.'

'And are you going to appeal,
Mr Trotter'

Editors get sued all the time.

He'll probably just take it
on the chin.

Still, at least he didn't fire you.

May as well have.
He stuck me on Entertainment.

'Mayor Firth, do you have
a statement about the verdict'

I'm delighted the court
made the right decision today.

After all my charitable work,
it's a disgrace to have

my reputation dragged
through the muck

by some grubby little
fake news hack.

Well, OK, we can probably
switch it off now.

HE SIGHS

And speaking of charitable events,

the 2010 sensation Psychic Buffalo
are in Bakerbury

for a one night only concert.

My favourite of their tracks
has got to be the inimitable

Come To Me, Baby,

How about you, Miss Badwan

What the hell Can you believe that

Fake news hack.
No, no.

Outrageous.
Anyway, I'd better go.

I'm interviewing Dennis Pride.
I hear he's a nice guy.

Hey, you said you were
into indie rock.

I've got a press pass.
I could get you in.

No. I-I would love to,
but I,

I have a puzzle deadline.

Fair enough. Shame, though.

I'll miss you,
baby, tonight

HE CHUCKLES

Why didn't you tell him

Because, if he knew this
Dennis was my Dennis,

he'd do something stupid.

And Anton needs to keep his job.

Yes. Loved it. Huge fan.

Yeah. Yes, us too.

We danced to Missing You
at our wedding last year.

And when I heard they were coming to
town, I said to Ray, I said,

"We've just got to sponsor them."

I mean, it's not every day
you get to meet Dennis Pride.

They're going clubbing

at the Duke Vincent after this.

Join us, if you fancy it.

Thank you. But I think
my clubbing days are behind me.

That's what Ray said.

OK, Dennis, I'm going to say this

You can die tonight, or...

No, no.

I'm going to say this only once.

You can leave town in one piece,

or you can leave in a body bag.

What's it gonna be

Hah.

Hey, can I have a word

Look, it's a nice hotel enough,
but I'm having a few problems.

Is there any way you can stop...

If I may offer a suggestion,
lose the shades.

Less conspicuous.

It is you.

It's a shame to cover up
those lovely eyes, Miss Felton.

Well, whoever you are,
I'm not looking to be picked up.

But is complimenting your eyes

I'll tell you. It's both.

Well, that as it may...

I'm busy.

To talk.

A polite conversation about Sherry.

What about Sherry

You're staying away from her,
or you'll have me to answer to.

You know,
it's quite a nice town, this.

I might hang around for a while.
But it's a little bit small.

Can I help it
if I run it into Sherry

I'm only going to say this once.

You can leave town in one piece...

Yeah, I was actually.

So if you wouldn't mind

Hello again.
I'm not interrupting

Not at all. I was just leaving.

And I suggest you do the same
tomorrow morning.

I know what it looks like, but, it's not what you think, all right

Looks like Dennis made
quite the impression on Anton.

"Dennis Pride gave his all
to a rapturous audience,

"proving Psychic Buffalo

"of their heyday."

No, I'm fine. I'm gonna
go for one later with Anton.

Anyway, listen to this.

"I caught up with
the magnetic frontman

"just moments after
he'd left the stage

"and could instantly see why
his popularity has endured."

You most certainly could.

You've got some nerve,

Look, I know you told me
to stay away,

but I'm not here to cause trouble.

There's really no need.
No, it's fine.

This is really fun.

But, I've got somewhere else

Don't worry, sweetheart.

I won't let that bastard

Why were you in his hotel room

We have history.

Or rather, Sherry does.

He is a nasty piece of work.

All right, so you don't like the guy

and you want us to screw him over
on your behalf

Thank you. If you wouldn't mind.

I do mind, Miss Felton.

I'm not here to settle scores.

It's my wife...
Excuse me. Raymond

You all right, mate
Derek... I can't find Gloria.

She's been gone all day,
and she's not answering her phone.

I'm sure there's a perfectly
reasonable explanation.

When did you last see her

This morning. About ten.

Ray, mate, that was four hours ago.

Yes, but she wouldn't say
where she was going.

Look, I-I've called Julien,
Olivia, all of Gloria's friends.

No-one knows where she is.

It's not like her to ignore
my calls.

What if something's happened to her

Raymond, relax, mate, relax.
I tell you what, go home, right

She's probably
waiting for you there.

And if she's not back
by this evening,

I'll send a car out
to look for her, all right

All right.
Thanks, Derek. Sorry, mate.

Relax, relax, relax, come on.

And get him home, please, mate.
Thank you.

Strange.

Why the paranoia
Probably cos his first wife died.

Really Anything suspicious

Yeah.
No.

She slipped in the bathtub,
banged her head.

She'd been drinking.

Even so, Ray was a suspect
for a while.

They had a stormy marriage.

Raymond would never touch a hair
on Harriet's head.

Would you say he was
a possessive husband

Yes.
No.

So, if Ray were to find out

that Gloria had been
in another man's company,

would you say he would blame her

I guess...
Probably, yeah.

Interesting.

Gotta dash.

If you knew that Gloria was here,

why didn't you tell your dad
when he was worried

Because it would've ruined
the surprise she was planning.

Gloria hired this place
for the fountain.

All she told me was she was
making some sort of music video

for their anniversary.

That's why she went to Dennis
Pride's hotel room last night.

Miss Felton
Gloria told me that

she danced to Dennis's song
on their wedding day.

He was here. That much is evident.

Evident from what

Red car paint on the pillar
by the gate.

Dennis drives a red sports car.

He left in a hurry, too.
There are skid marks in the road.

And if I know that bastard,
he's about to skip town.

SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

Hi.
ENGINE STARTS

No, hold on.

VAN BEEPING

THUD

Yep. That should do it.

I know how it looks,

but I only ran cos I panicked.

Then you admit
that you were at the villa

Yeah.

Gloria asked me to shoot
a music video with her.

She wanted it to look like some
scene from an Italian movie,

you know, with a... a fountain.

She gave me five grand. I said yes.

But when I got there,
she was already dead.

Right, so how do you explain
the blood-stained shirt

that we found in your suitcase

I got it on me when I checked
whether she was still alive,

but I didn't kill her.

So, why not call the police

I panicked.

Look, I'm famous.

I didn't wanna get the blame.

I'm not surprised, you know,
considering your,

history of violence against women.

I'm sorry, are you citing
my client's past

Did he have any history
with Gloria Hendrix

Not that we know of, no.
Correct.

Because he only met her yesterday,

and their dealings
were entirely professional.

Moreover,
I think you'll find Mr Pride

has no prior convictions
of any kind.

No, not convictions, no, but...

just a string of complaints of
domestic abuse from his ex-wife.

A Miss Sherry Carter.

Then it's irrelevant.

SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

Of course she'd defend him.

Someone tried to kill her,
she'd hand them her business card.

Do you agree, then,
Dennis is guilty

I didn't say that.

It makes no sense for him
to have killed Gloria.

No sense at all.

What about the fact that he fled
the scene with her blood on him

Which rather proves our point.

Look, a guilty man
would be more careful.

Isn't it more likely
to be the husband

Gloria went to Dennis's
hotel room last night.

As it turns out,
it was entirely innocent.

But if Ray got wind
of the rendezvous,

he could have lost his temper.

A few months back,

the Gazette published pictures
of her kissing another man.

Some model, a stripper called Dante.

The idiot that I work with,
Colin Sugar,

he was behind the expose.

I have to say, something felt...

Something felt off about it.
What do you mean, "off"

He was pretty shifty
when I asked him about it.

It made me think it was some
kind of honey trap.

Interesting.

A stripper, you say

CLUB MUSIC,

# Strip for me, babe
Strip for you

# Strip for me cos I want you to

# Strip for me, babe

Dante, I believe

No, I said no extras.

You should be so lucky.

Wait, you're that...
the crossword woman.

Puzzle Lady, but close enough.

And I recognise you, too,

from a kiss and tell piece
in the Gazette.

Yeah, thanks for the reminder.

You know that bitch's husband
broke my nose

Luckily for me,

he had a fat bank account,

so I made him cough me up
a settlement cheque.

A big one.

People with money
don't usually, how...

how can I put this,
wear Velcro trousers.

So, what happened to the windfall,
Mr Dante

It's just Dante.

And what, can't you tell

I gave it all to a plastic surgeon
who bollocksed it up.

So, bye-bye modelling career.

You'll forgive me
if I don't shed a tear for you.

You lied about having an affair
with a married woman,

who's now dead, by the way.

So what
It's got nothing to do with me.

Look, some journalist paid me
to kiss her. That is all.

So, Colin Sugar paid you

Was anyone else involved

Did someone put him up to it
How the hell would I know

ENGINE STARTS

Pepperoni is your favourite,
right, Danny Yeah.

Hey, Miss Felton,
do you want some free pizza

No, thank you. Marvellous hat.

Didn't know you had a job.

It's Dad's idea.
Keeping you out of trouble

Good to see everybody
so hard at work.

I have been working, Inspector,
on a lead.

Me too. I...
Would you care for me to share it

By all means, yeah.

A low grade hack called Colin Sugar

hired a model by the name
of Dante to set Gloria up.

Ray then beat up Dante
and was forced to pay him off.

Yes, we all knew that.

Young Dante had it coming to him,
if you ask me.

Yes, but he was just the honey trap.

The real question is,

who hired Colin Sugar
to slander Gloria, and why

Well, who says anyone hired him

Maybe he was just
a low life journalist

trying to sell a story.

What did the pathologist say, Sir

Just that it was hard to
pinpoint a time of death.

Well, luckily, I...

Well, that would be cos
she was found in water.

Her, her body temperature
would've dropped.

I've read that messes
with the timeline,

but rigor mortis should narrow it
down to like a two hour... window.

Sorry....

I'll just get back to work.
Yeah.

I mean, she is right, you know.

They reckon it was some time
between 11am and 2pm,

but that's hardly specific, is it

11:54.

Her watch was broken during
the attack. She died at 11:54.

Sir, we should ask Dennis Pride
to see if he has an alibi

for that time.
There's no need.

I know exactly where he was.

Stood on my doorstep with
a dozen red roses for Sherry.

Dennis couldn't have killed Gloria.

You have to let him go.

MYSTERIOUS MUSIC

This is just bail, Mr Pride.

I suggest that you stay in town.

Well, I am happy to stay
if you want me to.

Call me Dennis.

So, what's the situation
with the,

cocaine misunderstanding

You're being charged
with possession, Mr Pride.

But seeing as you're
a first time offender,

I'll get it reduced down to a fine.

Ha First time offender

And by the way, thank you
for saving my arse, Cora.

You're most not welcome.

HE SIGHS

Hello again.

Hello.

How serendipitous.
I was just thinking about you.

Are you working on
the Gloria Hendrix murder case

I'm not at liberty to say,
but, yes, yes I am.

What an exciting woman you are.

Please don't think
me impertinent, but...

..can I take you out some time

Blunt trauma, like before

Harriet was a single blow, mate.

This is more like two, maybe three.

Gloria was killed sometime
just before midday yesterday.

And I'm sorry to ask you
this, Ray, mate, but...

..where were you

I was here, alone.

Did you think Gloria
was having an affair

What Come on, mate.
You know what I'm getting at here.

Did you follow her to the villa

And did you...

How could you ask me that

I've got to ask you that, mate.

Gloria never cheated on me.

And even if she did, I wouldn't hurt
her hair on her head.

Cos I loved her.

SOBBING

I know, mate.

SOBBING

I'm sorry, Olivia, it's procedure

to establish everyone's
whereabouts, so...

can you confirm
where you were yesterday

I was in the office.
On a Saturday

I had something to take care of.

I can't remember exactly
what time I got there,

but it was late morning.

Right.

And you, Julien

I'm a suspect now too, am I

Well, given you're the only one
who knew who Gloria was, we...

We'll have to consider it, mate.

Wow. OK, I mean, you used to
take me camping, but whatever.

I know.

I was at the office too.
Olivia can vouch for that.

But if you don't believe us,

we've got security cameras
with a timecode.

We'll send you a link.
That would be useful, thank you.

Are you finished

I think you've upset my dad
enough as it is.

I'll talk to you later, Ray,
all right

SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

I can't believe Cora
gave him an alibi.

Can't you Come on.

You're saying
you would've kept quiet

Yeah.
Yeah, right.

You wanna leave
Nope. Why should we

Dildo.
SHERRY LAUGHS

Just ignore him. He's just
trying to make me jealous.

Or maybe you are the one
who's jealous.

What No, no, I'm just...
I'm just worried about Becky.

If he hurts her...
Please.

She will be fine.
He's dangerous.

I still think
he could've killed Gloria.

Think about it. The watch
gives him an alibi, right

But what if he deliberately broke it

to make it look like
it stopped during the murder,

and then changed the time
afterwards

He put it back an hour so the three
of us would have to vouch for him.

He is not that smart.
Are you sure about that

BIRDS CHIRPING

SIGHS

Ooh, spot of shopping

I've met a man.

His name's Gilbert. He's divine.

And I'm seeing him tonight.

Aunt Cora

I'm so happy for you.
You deserve a bit of romance.

Thank you, sweetheart. So do you.

Dare I ask, how are things
with you and Anton

That's a good question.

We sort of feel like a couple,
but without, you know, the...

Sex, darling, you can say it.

Right, yes, without the...

That. Which is weird.

I haven't wanted to make the first
move after throwing myself at him.

And I think he's been holding back
out of respect for me or something.

But now things are even more
complicated with Dennis in town.

Here...

have some perfume.

Aw

That reminds me.
I bumped into Sunil today.

He's a union rep now.
He wanted me to tell you something.

Apparently, a bunch of workers
at Hendrix & Son -

they make designer belts, bags,
that sort of thing -

they were all suddenly let go
due to outsourcing.

And the building where they used
to work is now occupied by...

Guess who

Mayor Firth.
Right.

One of his catering companies.
And there's more.

Sunil says Hendrix's designer goods
are still being made here in the UK,

right here in Bakerbury,
by prisoners.

Mayor Firth's favourite workforce.

You know, I...

I heard Gloria and Olivia
having an argument

the night of the concert.

Olivia was told to fix something,

but fix what

Is that the model that was
caught on camera kissing Gloria

That was an ambush.

That pathetic little creep
was just after money.

But if you don't mind,
I'd rather not get into that.

What can I do for you today,
Miss Felton

Well, perhaps you could clear
something up for me.

I've heard that your company
uses prisoners

to make your designer goods.
Is that true

No. That's ridiculous.

I'm not responsible for
that part of the business,

but I can categorically say
that's not true.

Well, then, who is responsible

I am.

Nothing happens here
without my say so,

and I can assure you
we use highly skilled,

unionised, locally based workers.

I don't know where you could
have heard otherwise.

Just a rumour.

I assumed it was inaccurate,
but thought I'd ask.

I won't waste any more of your time.

SINISTER MUSIC

Hi. Is Luigi there

We've got 15 pizzas...

SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

DRAWER SHUTS

Try listening next time...

The timecode proves Julien was
in his office the whole morning.

He doesn't leave till
well after 2:00.

Camera in the car park shows his Jag

was parked there the whole time,
so he's in the clear.

And what about Olivia

Well, she gets there at 12:45,
almost an hour after the murder.

Talks to Julien,
then goes to her office.

So, Olivia could be the killer

Hendrix & Son have, security cameras. Ha.

How useful.

You haven't seen anything
more up to date, have you

No. Why
Not important.

But back to Olivia.

I forgot to tell you this,
but I heard her and Gloria

arguing the night of the concert.

I couldn't hear what it was about,

but Gloria had recently
been made Managing Director

of Hendrix & Son by Ray,

which couldn't have been
welcomed by Olivia

if she was used to operating
without scrutiny.

What do you mean
I suspect

Olivia was ripping the company off.

She replaced well-paid staff
with prison labour

and pocketed the change.

Right. And how do you know that

Again, not important,
but if you checked

the company bank accounts,
you'd see I'm right.

You'd also find that she's
renting the empty building

to one Mayor Firth,

probably as a thank you
for the prisoner labour deal.

And what makes you so sure
Olivia was acting alone

I'm not,
but Julien denied all knowledge

of a prisoner sweatshop,
and I believed him.

What about Ray
No.

No, Ray would never exploit
his workers. No, no, no.

He's a union man, is Ray.

But it's his company, isn't it

He must have known something.

OMINOUS MUSIC

You didn't know anything
about those contracts

Course I didn't.

I leave that stuff to Olivia,

but I already told that
little snake to get stuffed.

Who, Olivia

No. Firth.

He came to me months ago with
some deal to use prisoners.

I told him, "Over my dead body."

Are you telling me Olivia
did it anyway, behind my back

It looks that way, mate, yeah.

I'll fire her.

I don't care who she is,
I'll fire her.

Ray, Ray, come on, Ray.

You're not in any fit state
to make a decision like that.

Come on, mate.
You're making a scene.

So, look, be honest.

How could that have happened
without you knowing

Cos these days, I'm barely there.

I've been working since
we were 16, Derek, you know that.

Time to slow down.

Play some golf.

Julien and Olivia
were running things fine, and...

Gloria has great ideas
about the business.

She did.

Hey.

So, what, you, promoted Gloria
above Olivia and Julien Well...

They can't have been
pleased about that.

They came around.

On the night of the concert,

Olivia and Gloria
were seen having a bit of a...

a bit of an argument.

Any idea why

No.

Gloria never mentioned it.

You'll have to ask Olivia.

She threatened to tell Ray
unless I put it right.

And she told me to end
the prisoner contract

and rehire all our former employees.

I said it wasn't that simple.

We didn't even have the building
any more. Gloria didn't know

the first thing about business.
Like exploiting workers

We weren't breaking any laws.

Lots of companies do it.

But Ray couldn't know.
He'd be furious.

Well, he is.

I've already terminated
the contract.

That's why I was in on Saturday.
I did what Gloria asked.

Olivia, right now, Ray
is the least of your problems...

because you've already admitted
to having an argument

with Gloria the night
before she was killed.

And we have you on CCTV
arriving at the office

an hour after she was murdered,
so...

Where were you, Olivia

I stopped for a coffee
at Babs' Bakery.

Someone must have seen me there.

Jesus Christ, I didn't kill Gloria

Now, why isn't either one

Says a man who cosies up to
anyone who lines his pockets.

We all know why you're here,
Mayor Firth.

To protect your grubby
little deal with Olivia,

after Ray Hendrix quite rightly
rejected it.

In fact, I wonder what the press
would make of you

breaking the law by exploiting
prisoners yet again.

It's not breaking the law.

Of course it is.
'Fraid not.

Well...

So, even though
it's perfectly legal,

the employment deal's
been terminated.

No doubt that's down
to your meddling.

Well, actually, no, Mayor Firth.

It was Gloria made Olivia
give that up.

So I suppose that gives you
a motive, Mayor.

Not that you'd ever kill anyone,
of course.

I suggest you release Miss Lemon

and look a little closer
to home, Inspector.

And if you can't do your job,

I'm sure the Chief Constable
will find someone who will.

Olivia with, anyway.

It's Danny.

He says turn on the news.
Ooh

'The body of Olivia Lemon
has been found in her flat.'

No
'Miss Lemon was a colleague

'of the recently murdered
Gloria Hendrix.' My God

'Police are treating
the latest death as suspicious,

'which poses the question,
is there a connection'

No blunt head trauma this time.

But contusions on the shoulders

are consistent with finger marks.

She was held under the water.

DOOR OPENS

Sir I spoke to the neighbours.

They heard shouting
at about 11 o'clock last night.

Now, they couldn't hear
what was said,

but they definitely heard
a man's voice.

And there are two used glasses.

So she had company, then.

Lovely

LAUGHTER
Are you busy

Have you got a set of keys for this
place I don't know about Honestly

I can see you're feeling testy,

and understandable
given that your murder suspect

Has been murdered herself
and by drowning, no less.

Couldn't be a coincidence.

How do you know she...

Daniel, honest to God.

I'm sorry, sir.
I realise I have a problem, OK

Come on, Inspector. Where's
the harm in sharing information

Haven't I been useful
from time to time

So, tell me about Olivia's flat.

Were there signs of a break-in,
was anything missing

Might as well, Dan.

You're gonna tell her
everything anyway. Go on.

There were dresser drawers open
and stuff pulled out,

a jewellery box as well.

Looked like it was emptied.

And what about her mobile phone

We didn't find one. Why

I'm working on a hunch.

Do you buy that it was a burglary,

or was someone
trying to make it look like one

I mean, think about it.

Three women, all murdered
in much the same way.

For the last time,
Harriet wasn't murdered.

She slipped in the bathtub,
all right

So you keep saying, Inspector.

Well, Olivia Lemon
didn't slip in the bath,

or are you suggesting she did

Perhaps if you'd listened to me,
she'd still be alive.

That's not fair.
Isn't it

I told you
it were Ray Hendrix, didn't I

How many more women
are you gonna let him kill

before you do summat about it

If he's guilty, I'll arrest him

I don't need you or anyone else
for that matter

telling me how to do my job

Sam, can you liaise with the
forensics department, please

And Danny, Dan, Dan...

don't say anything.

All right

BIRDS CHIRPING

First Gloria, now Olivia.

What the hell's going on, Derek
Who's doing this

Well, you were pretty angry
with Olivia yesterday.

For making that deal
with Mayor Firth.

You think I'd kill her over that

Dunno, mate, would you

Olivia was like a sister
to me, and Julien.

We both loved her.

And yet you were willing
to fire her

I'd never harm Olivia, or any woman.

Jesus, Derek I thought
you knew me better than that.

OK, so where were you both
last night, then

About 11 o'clock.

We were here,

together.

Did anyone else see you

No.

No.

So, your only alibi
is each other, then.

Another thing, do either
of youse wear underpants

with days of the week on

Excuse me
What

PHONE RINGING

I better get this.

Hello

Can this wait, cos...

Yeah

Do you care to explain
how you got so banged up, Mr Pride

I tripped and fell down some stairs.

And before you suggest
that he may have been injured

by the victim, my client
was already visibly bruised

at the Bar & Grill where they met.

After which, you went back to
Olivia Lemon's flat and had sex.

Is that correct

Yes, that's correct.

Is the right answer.

And we also have a wine glass
with your prints on them.

Which places you firmly at the scene
of two murders, Mr Pride.

No, it does not.

We've already established that
my client has a solid alibi

for Gloria Hendrix's murder.

Only based on the time
on the deceased's watch.

I mean, it's possible the killer
changed the time on the watch

to make it appear
that she was killed earlier.

My client's not that smart.

She's right. I...

I don't understand
what you just said,

which proves I never killed anyone.

No, it doesn't.

All right, it doesn't. But I didn't.
Someone else killed Gloria.

And Olivia was alive
when I left her.

SCOFFS
Please

You have to believe me.

Anton says Danny
says Hooper's saying

that Dennis could have changed
the time on Gloria's watch.

Yeah, that's what Anton said.

No, Anton said that ages ago,
about Dennis changing the time.

It's a good theory.
Wish I'd thought of it.

No, I still don't think
Dennis is a killer.

I can't believe I'm saying this,
but neither do I.

I mean, why turn up in Bakerbury
and start killing random women

Although they're not random.
They are clearly connected.

Agreed. Now, I think the key
is in Olivia's phone.

Why was it taken

Could it be something to do with
her filming Julien and Dante

So, you think Julien
killed Gloria after all

Or both of them did

Dante's possible,
but my gut says no.

And Julien couldn't have,
cos I've seen the CCTV.

As for Olivia...
Cora

Fancy seeing you here.

I'm not interrupting anything, am I
Not at all.

Gilbert, this is
my brilliant niece, Sherry.

Pleased to meet you.

Likewise, likewise.

I see good looks run in the family.

AWKWARD LAUGH

Would you like a coffee
Ooh, yes, please, I would.

Well, that's mine,
but I'll get you...

Another one. All right.

Sir, we found
a clean set of prints

on Olivia's bathroom tiles.

They're a match for Ray Hendrix.

Well...

..I bet Raymond would've been
in Olivia's flat all the time,

wouldn't he

And besides, Samuel, we already
have our prime suspect, so...

Thank you.

Look, I was just checking him out.

Well, what the bloody hell
is there to check out

I don't know.
That's why I was checking.

His name's Gilbert Sullivan,
for God's sake.

What kind of name is that

And there's no trace of him
anywhere online,

no Facebook, no Instagram.

Well, Gilbert is a wonderful,
kind, uncomplicated man,

and I like him.

We don't all have to wait six months
before we sleep with someone.

Wow. Well, why don't you
just marry him then

Or actually, no, skip that part
and go straight to the divorce

She's inside.

You'll probably be frisked
for weapons at the door.

Actually, I wanna talk to you.

What would you do
if you knew something,

like really important information

and you knew that
you had to speak up,

but if you do,

it would mean letting a
complete piece of shit off the hook

Would this piece of shit be Dennis

SHE SIGHS

What do you know

That he didn't kill Olivia.

I was tailing him last night,

just to make sure he didn't
try anything else with Sherry.

He went into the Bar & Grill alone
and he left with Olivia.

I followed them to her flat,
waited outside for about an hour,

and then I saw him leave.

And I know Olivia was still alive.

She closed the blinds.

God, I hate that guy.

Why Why do I have to be
his bloody alibi, twice

Because the Anton I know
wouldn't withhold evidence.

That's the difference
between you and him.

There's something else.

When I was parked outside
the Bar & Grill,

I saw Julien leave.

He jumped into his car
and drove off.

He seemed angry about something.

So, Julien was there with Olivia

Must have been.

And a couple of hours later,
she's dead.

Why the hell didn't you say
something before

I was going to, and, and then...

Professional dilemma.

He could have just broken the story,

but here he is
doing the honourable thing.

Bullshit.

You should have told us.

We've been wasting our time

when we could have been out looking
for other suspects Like Ray.

I'm sorry to say it, sir,
but maybe...

maybe Mayor Firth
was right this time.

Do you want me to bring him in, sir

No, I don't.

Thank you, Samuel.

I'll do it.

'Did you kill Olivia Lemon'

Yes.

And why

Because she killed Gloria.

I know she did.

She was always jealous
of our marriage.

She thought Gloria
was some kind of threat to her.

So, she followed her to the villa.

Did that awful thing.

She can't have done, mate.

Olivia was at Bab's Bakery
at the time of the murder.

She was nowhere near the villa.

We have the till receipt
to prove it, Ray.

There's a match
to Olivia's debit card.

She didn't kill anyone.

HE BREATHES DEEPLY

All right.

I know you're right.

She didn't kill Gloria.

Cos I did.

Mr Hendrix,
just so we're clear here,

are you confessing
to the murder of both women

Yes.

I saw Gloria
flirting with Dennis Pride

the night of the concert,

and she was seen
going to his hotel room.

After all those pictures
in the paper.

She thought she could
do that to me again

Next day, I followed her.

She even admitted
she was meeting Dennis.

HE EXHALES
So I lost my temper.

That's all.

And Olivia...

..why kill her

She knew what I did.

She threatened to tell
because I was gonna fire her.

What about Harriet, mate

All those years ago.
Was that really an accident

Harriet was always a bitch.

Sir, are you OK

Er, yeah.

I'm fine, Danny, really.

Really, we solved a triple murder
today, so it's good, no

And only 20 years
after the first one

That's great police work,
Inspector Hooper

In fact, I think I'll recommend you
for the George Cross

FIRTH CHUCKLES
I'm sorry.

Who do you think you are

You come in here, shouting the odds
and making threats.

No, I'm gonna say this, Samuel.

but we do our best, Mayor Firth.

But you, see you,

you-you-you are nothing
but a weaselly,

money-grubbing little tit

who doesn't give a damn
for anyone but himself

So, go on, get out

Never set foot in my station again,
do you hear me

You'll regret that.

No photographs,
no professional listings.

Sherry's right.
It's like you don't exist.

Sherry.
You have a good niece there

and she's wise to be protective.

But there's nothing to find out
about me because,

well, I'm not very interesting.

And as for social media,
well, it never really appealed.

Maybe I'm just too old
for that sort of thing.

And maybe I'm too old
for fairy tales.

I've been lied to
by every man I ever trusted,

and they all did so
with a smile just like yours.

So tell me something true.

Something true. All right.

HE INHALES SHARPLY

I was a terrible husband.

I don't know
who stopped loving who first,

but it made me sleepwalk
through everything

I should have cared about...

..including being a father.

These days,
I try to give my daughters

all the love that I should
have given them before, but...

I think they know
it's more for my sake than theirs.

And that's probably
why it's too late.

But I keep trying anyway.

And perhaps I don't deserve it,

but all I want now is to spend
my time with someone special.

And you are it, Cora.

You utterly shine in my eyes.

Thank you for telling me that.

Can't have been easy.

There's something

Why Because I was too pig-headed

to see the truth about Ray.

You believed in your friend.

You don't deserve to be fired
for that.

Well, that's kind,
Miss Felton, but...

I'm pretty sure they were looking
for an excuse anyway.

And I've just given them one,

with a great big fat bow
on the top of it.

Thank you, though, for the muffin.

I thought you should know,
Hooper's kept his job.

He got off with a warning.
Well, that's great news.

That's not actually
why I'm here.

It's about Ray Hendrix.

There's something off
about his confession.

At first, he said
he thought Olivia murdered Gloria

and that was his reason
for killing her.

But when we told him
she had a solid alibi,

he just changed his story.
He said...

He said he killed all three women.

Now, I don't know, I think
there's more to it than that,

and I've got a feeling
you think so too.

Haven't you heard
I'm not the Puzzle Lady.

Yes, yeah, I heard.

DOOR CLOSES

Somehow, I can believe
Ray offed Olivia,

even his first wife, but Gloria

Nah, I think he really loved her.

People used to say that
about me and Dennis.

CORA TUTS...

But the jealous husband hat
doesn't really fit Ray.

When the papers accused Gloria
of cheating with Dante,

he believed Gloria, not Dante.

And he happily left her
to dance all night after the concert

with various men.

No, he trusted her.

Yeah, so why confess

To protect someone he loves.

Like his son If...

If he knows Julien killed Gloria,

then maybe he's just
taking the blame for him.

But Julien didn't kill her.

I mean, he can't have.
You've seen the CCCV.

God...

What's that for

You said there was a toilet, no

He's right.
CHUCKLING

I think that's about it.
Are you two ready

Yeah.
Yeah.

No, wait.

CHUCKLING

Cool.
Very good.

OK, let's figure out
this CCTV mystery.

UPBEAT OPERA MUSIC

Dante comes in through the window.

Julien goes out through that window.

Dante takes his coffee cup,

goes into Julien's office
with his back to the camera.

That's it.

That's how they did it.

MUSIC CRESCENDOS,
SHE EXHALES

Right, so what are we looking at

That's Julien's office.

That's the kitchen over here.

And at the far end, and along
that corridor to the left,

are the fire exit and the toilets.

Right. And how do you know that

Now's not the time
to nit-pick, Inspector.

May I continue

So, Julien appeared to be
in the office all morning.

Sometimes he's facing the camera.

Sometimes he's facing away.

So, what if it's not one man
we're looking at, but two

Julien had an accomplice, Dante,
who may or may not be his lover.

Similar height and build.

Sam, can you fast forward it a bit

So, that's Julien coming in,
goes into his office.

We know it's him.

See, he's facing the camera
as he goes into the kitchen.

Then out of sight, Dante
climbs in through the kitchen window

and Julien climbs out.

Then Dante,
facing away from the camera,

returns to Julien's office
with a coffee.

How long is he in there, Sam

About an hour and a half.

More than enough time
for Julien to drive to the villa,

murder Gloria and then come back.

Then Dante pretends
to go to the toilets.

Then he lets Julien back in
through the fire exit

and slips away himself.

So, it's Julien
who returns to his office

looking like he's been there
all along.

It's possible.

You know, Miss Felton,

I know how much
you need this case right now.

And believe me,
I would love to think

that Ray never killed Gloria,
but we have his confession.

And this footage isn't proof that...

that there was another man in there,
just that there might have been.

I'm afraid it's not enough.

CORA SIGHS

CAR DOOR CLOSES

He didn't buy it.
So, what now

I guess we're on our own.

Whether Hooper believes it or not,
I'm certain Julien staged his alibi.

We need more.

Like a witness.

Someone who may have seen
Julien and Olivia together

the night she died.

What witness

No, Cora, no.

No

So, you want something
from me now, do ya

Interesting.
We'd certainly appreciate it.

After all, we're family, aren't we

I mean, I know we've had
our ups and downs.

Dennis, just tell us what you saw,
for fuck's sake.

There was one thing.

HE CHUCKLES

You know what else will be funny

Me giving an exclusive
to the tabloids.

"My marriage from hell
with Dennis Pride."

That is a brilliant idea, Sherry.

We could certainly do with the cash.

So, Julien Hendrix
left the Bar & Grill

where Olivia and you
then had a drink.

He was angry, apparently.

Did you see or hear
anything they said

No.

Well, he was sat too far away.

But Olivia, she showed him
something on her phone

and I heard, um,
what's his face, Julien.

He said, "What do you want"

She said something I couldn't hear
and he left.

So, she could have been
blackmailing him.

Well, it all fits.

Thank you.

Off you fuck.

My God.

What the hell is that

I don't wanna talk about it.

Shall we see what Julien's up to

DANCE MUSIC BOOMS

So, if Olivia
tried to blackmail him,

what do you think she wanted

Money A bigger stake
in the business

We may never know.

What's clear is,
instead of just giving it to her,

Julien chose to kill two birds
with one stone,

pardon the expression,

by duping his father into believing
that Olivia killed Gloria.

Every bit the grieving son.

And an only child, too.

With Ray in prison for murder,
he gets the house, the business,

and the fortune all to himself.

But how do we prove any of it

There's no way of getting our hands
on that footage.

Olivia's phone's probably
at the bottom of the Nidd.

Maybe we don't need it.

It's enough to know it existed.

That gives us the upper hand.

OWL HOOTING

Right, so what do I do again
Very simple.

These buttons
are for all the different voices.

But I just speak normally
Yeah.

And then they'll hear
whatever voice you pick.

All right.
OK, you ready OK.

RINGTONE PLAYS

Hello

HIGH PITCHED, DISTORTED:
Now listen to me very carefully.

Who is this

Never mind who I am.

DEEPER, DISTORTED: I know
what you did, and I can prove it.

Is this the Puzzle Lady

Wait, wait, do I still
get to call you that

DEEPER, DISTORTED: Yes, you do.

DEEPER, DISTORTED: Now, where was I

DEEPER, DISTORTED:
Yes, I know what you did.

DEEPER, DISTORTED:
Olivia sent me the recording.

DEEPER, DISTORTED: 'I want
£10,000 for the flash drive.'

DEEPER, DISTORTED: Come alone.

DEEPER, DISTORTED:
Any funny business,

and the video will get sent
straight to the police.

DEEPER, DISTORTED: I'll message you
with a location for the exchange.

DEEPER, DISTORTED: Enjoy the rest
of your evening. Goodbye.

GIGGLING
I think that went rather well.

Yeah. What location exactly, though

SIGHS

Geez. Aunt Cora,
how did you afford this

I thought you didn't
have any money, remember

It seems
that a murder in a holiday let

results in quite the discount.

Hello.

What the hell is he doing here
HE was asked by your aunt.

Because we need him.

Did you bring the flash drive

You didn't open it
These things are a nightmare.

Hang on. Got any scissors
Yeah...

Idiot.
ANTON SIGHS

Wait.

Give it here.

Jesus.
SHERRY SIGHS

Well done.

This is going to be a long night.

Look at that, Sam.

There, look. See
Yeah.

Is that a shadow

Bugger me, she was right.

What I'm not using this thing
on anyone.

Wow. Heroic.
What if I was being killed

I'm sure you'd find a way
to turn the tables. What

You're not going
to have to shoot anyone.

It's just to show we mean business
in case things go south.

Why can't you take it, then

Because a taped confession
isn't worth a damn

if it's at gunpoint.

OK. No, don't look at me.
I'm filming the thing.

ENGINE HUMMING

For fuck's sake.

Strap on a pair, OK,
he's coming already.

Hello there.

Are you alone

Clearly.

You
Of course.

I hope you don't mind returning
to the scene of your crime,

but I've heard that some killers
actually enjoy it.

Makes them feel powerful.

Well, right now, I just feel bored.
So can we get on with it

My, my.
You are a brat, aren't you

Is that how you managed to persuade
your father to kill Olivia

Come, come. Don't be coy.

It's actually rather impressive.

Show me the flash drive first.

For all I know, that thing's blank.

Well... it isn't.

Prove it. Tell me what's on it.

It's you and Dante on a park bench.

You tell him that your ruse
with the CCTV

has fooled the police.

And

And...

You see a woman in a large hat

being chased through the park
by a mobility scooter.

Happy

How did I persuade him

I told him I saw Olivia
with wet clothes

when she returned to the office.

That I only knew what it meant
when we found Gloria drowned.

It was surprisingly easy,

but then again, my father's
not the brightest button.

He built the fortune
that you're so eager to have

all for yourself.

And he clearly loves you enough
to go to prison for you, so...

..why would you let him do that

Because he deserves it, that's why.
He killed my mother.

You saw him do that as a child

I found the body.

Well, that is truly awful.

But... that's not what I asked.

He did it, all right
They were always arguing.

He must have hit her
and she fell and drowned.

So that's why you killed Gloria
that way,

revenge for your mother

Dad thought
he could just replace her,

only this time
he was all lovey-dovey.

It made me want to puke.

Quite frankly, it's a miracle
I didn't kill Gloria sooner.

So, no love lost, then

But what about Olivia

I've heard that
she was rather fond of you.

Was that any way to repay her

Fuck her

She tried to blackmail me.

Which should give you
pause for thought, lady.

What makes you think
I won't just kill you for that

Because you've gotten clean away
with two deaths,

a third would be pushing it.

So, what happened
after your father killed Olivia

How did you get a hold of her phone

He was a mess.

Wanted to give himself up
to the police.

I told him to wait.

I'd go to the flat
and make it look like a burglary.

A perfect plan. Or...

it would've been
if Olivia hadn't sent a copy

to the Puzzle Lady.

Lucky for you,

I'd rather improve my bank balance
than turn you in, so...

..where's the money

SHE GRUNTS,
HE LAUGHS

Looks like you lose, Miss Felton.

Well, that's all right.

I didn't want the money.

And the flash drive
actually is blank.

But, you see, now I have
a far more valuable bit of evidence.

Sherry, behind you

SHERRY GRUNTS

Anton, shoot him
I can't shoot him

Sherry's in the way
Don't you move. Don't move

God...

Aunt Cora

Give me the phone

Leave her alone

Anton, for fuck's sake,
shoot somebody

Drop it, you old bitch
Shoot somebody

I don't know who to shoot
I don't know who

STRUGGLING,
GUNSHOT

Not me, you idiot

STRUGGLING

Give me the gun

SCREAMING,
GRAPPLING

Hands where I can see them
All right, OK

OK.

GASPING

Bring her down here.

GASPING

Then we'll decide what to do
with the lot of you.

Won't be very far away...

Sir. Did you find Julien

No, we didn't, Daniel.
PHONE RINGING

We put out an APB.

Hello Yes. Derek Hooper.

Really

Interesting. Right, thank you.

Someone has reported a disturbance
at the Begonia Villa.

Reckons they've heard gunshots.

Get the tasers, Daniel.

We... We have tasers

Look, how are we supposed
to kill them all

One at a time,
in the fountain.

Well, I've got a better idea.

Why don't we just take 'em inside
and we could just leave 'em.

We shouldn't have brought the gun.

We didn't think you were just
gonna give it to them.

I didn't just - my God.

- Will you two shut up
- Too much blood that way.

Well, it looks like
you're all shit out of luck.

Dante thinks we should just leave
you tied up and make a run for it,

but then you'd be found
and tell the police who to look for

and we'd have less of a chance
of getting out of the country.

The police are already
looking for you.

It's pointless killing us.

It would just increase
your sentence.

She's right, Jules.
Come on, let's just go.

Relax. If the police were
onto me, I'd be arrested already.

And besides, two deaths versus five,

we're pretty much looking
at the same jail time, babes.

OK, but I'm not doing that, Jules.
That's your thing, not mine.

DANTE SIGHS

No, no, no. Don't touch her
Don't touch her No, no, no.

It'll be all right.
It'll be all right. Up, up.

No, no.
Easy. Easy, easy

WHIMPERING,
GRUNTING

Julien Julien, listen to me

You didn't kill two people,
only one.

You'd get a mere slap on the wrist.

GROANING,
GARGLING

GRUNTING

STRUGGLING

You twat

DISTANT SIRENS

Are you OK Are you OK

GNOME SMASHES,
GRUNTING

Are you OK
GASPING

He went that way.
Er, Julien, he's got a gun.

And Sherry's phone

with a recording of him
confessing to Gloria's murder

One thing at a time, Miss Felton.

One thing at a time.

GASPING
Here...

Julien
JULIEN GRUNTS

Julien

I will fucking shoot you, Derek
I swear to God

GUNSHOT

Fucking hell

Julien

JULIEN GRUNTS AND GASPS

Come on Julien, mate. Come on.

GUNSHOT

Fucking hell Julien

JULIEN SHOUTS
Julien

It's over, kid. Come on.
Hey Give up.

GUNSHOT
Jesus.

GASPING

TASER BUZZING,

SIGHS

Are you done

Aren't you going
to read Anton's article

Don't need to. I was there.

Anyway, finding a job is a tad
more pressing, don't you think

The boy did well, you know
At the villa.

Are you sure you're ready
to give up on him

100% sure.

SIGHS

I'll leave you to it.
See you later.

Aunt Cora...

I don't care what anyone says.

I think you're amazing.

Thanks, Babs.

Right, what can I get you, ladies
Coffee, tea

Tea, please.
Tea, good.

For fuck's sake.

Could this day get any worse

Cora, I don't blame you
for being angry with me,

but, please, let me explain.

I-I'm so sorry.

I just want you to know
that I wasn't lying to you.

Well, of course, I-I lied to you.

My name is Harry, by the way.

But everything I said
about my divorce and my daughters

and the way I feel about you,
that's all real.

Try that for real.

SIGHS

Well, apparently this day
CAN get worse.

If you're looking
for Inspector Hooper,

he no longer works here.

He was fired anyway

We had an agreement.

What the Chief Constable decides
to do is entirely out of my hands.

But it seems that you, yet again,

showing up Hooper's incompetence
was simply the last straw.

CHUCKLES
Congratulations, Miss Felton.

HE LAUGHS

The English countryside,

Peaceful, serene, safe.

Foxes. They are a menace...

I must say, you've gone to seed
remarkably quickly.

What do you want, Miss Felton

I didn't mean for my actions
to get you fired.

I got fired because I'm a lousy cop.

That's not true.
Well.

You know, I went to visit Ray.

He finally told me the truth
about Harriet. He didn't kill her.

So I was right about that at least.

I'll fix this.
How

You're just as fucked as I am.

'Some of you we know
are leaving out tins of tuna,

'tins of cat food,
bars of chocolate...'

Just... trust me.

Miss Felton

Have a look in that box there.

CRUNCHING

'They're going to come
into your house,

'and they might start
taking a nibble at your toes...'

You know you're not supposed
to have that, don't you

Then why give it back

Because it's no longer my job
to stop you.

And I think you might need it.

So, Miss Felton,
you asked to make a statement

about your recent exposure
in the media,

revelations about your fake persona
as the Puzzle Lady.

CROWD IN AGREEMENT,
BOOING

Load of rubbish.

Thank you for giving me
the chance to speak.

So far, I've kept silent,

but I realise that I owe you all
a lot more than that.

'So let me be candid.'

There she is.
Bane of my bloody life.

'I'm a flawed human being.'

You're not wrong, love.

And somewhere in a long,
long list of shortcomings

is a distinct lack of aptitude
when it comes to crossword puzzles.

What started as a small,
harmless lie

grew into a big one.

And like the proverbial
hot air balloon,

it was hard to let go of.

But I realised crossword puzzles...

aren't the real reason
that everyone is so angry with me.

It's because I pretended
to be something that I'm not.

The thing is, for most of my life,

I felt that there
was something missing,

a piece of my own puzzle,
if you will.

I couldn't say what it was exactly.

It was just a...
a feeling that I had more to offer

than what was always expected of me.

And then...

..someone that I've grown
to care about

asked me to help and solve a crime.

He challenged me at every turn.

And it was the most fun
I've ever had.

And when we caught Stuart Tanner...

..it was then I knew.

I'd found that missing piece of me.

I'd found what I was good at...

..catching murderers
who think they're clever enough

to get away with it.

APPLAUSE
RESIDENT: Yep.

WHOOPING
Yes

So I'm asking you all...

..to give me another chance,
to accept me for my real talents,

not my imaginary ones.

I hope you can find it
in your hearts to do that.

I promise
I will not let you down again.

Actually, I might,
but I will do my very best not to,

because, dear friends, I am...

..and always will be...

the Puzzle Lady.

Yes.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

- Yeah.
- Well done.

What absolute scenes here.

An incredible moment.

- So proud of you, Cora.
- Thank you, Babs.

Thank you. I appreciate that.
