You're listening to Warm Words with me, Robin Murray.

Hi, I'm Tom.

I can't help myself.

I mean, I see them coming, I like them. I don't know, I think they're nice.

I mean, they look nice.

I don't know why, but I don't know how. I mean, it's not the way they look. Not

all the time, not exactly.

The next thing, it's like I wake up. I wake up suddenly and I'm in the street.

And I've been following them for hours, maybe.

I can't help it.

I know... I know it's bad.

I know it's a bad thing.

Why is it?

Why is it a bad thing?

Because it makes me think of what I've lost.

And I'm afraid.

I'm afraid of doing something that I'm feeling so... I feel... I understand,

Tom.

I know what you're going through.

You're lonely.

And that's a powerful feeling.

A desperate feeling.

Hello, Caledonia FM. You're through to warm words.

Would you like to share with Robin?

Can I take your name, caller?

You feel unable to talk to anyone, let alone a woman you find attractive.

Is there anyone you particularly like, Tom?

Someone special in your life?

No. I mean...

I don't think so.

Sounds to me as though you have someone in mind, Tom.

I think what you need is to be a very great deal kinder to yourself.

It's 20 minutes past the hour and you're listening to Warm Words with me, Robin

Murray.

We've our next caller on the line.

Hello, Julie.

How can I help you?

There's all these men, you see.

And, you know, they come round to fix the boiler like a silly electricity or

spray for the fridge. In my case, it was the fridge anyway. And they come

round... Caledonia FM.

Yes, we do warm words.

Can I take your name and number?

Oh, hi, Diane. I'll just see if I can put you through.

What I'm saying is that it's an opportunity to get to know someone.

They get to know you.

You've got your wife on the phone.

Putting you through. You get the chance to show that you're nice and that you're

a nice person.

Hello, sweetheart.

Hi.

Where are you?

Just on my way home.

You got your phone back then?

I knew I left it at the Merrin.

Abby picked it up.

I was lucky to catch her.

What time you back?

Same as usual, about half two.

Don't wait up.

As if.

Drive safe. I'll see you later.

Okay. Bye, darling.

Bye.

Thanks for that, Julie. It's a nice idea. Though perhaps not the most

way to meet someone new.

We'll be back with our next caller right after this.

Alone.

I just don't know what you mean.

It's like being behind a glass wall, you know?

And you're trying to talk, but nobody can hear the words, and you're

screaming, only no signs come out.

There's nobody there, and you... I'm sorry we've got a lot of calls tonight.

Robin won't be able to hear your problem.

It's silent. Can I take your number for tomorrow night's show? It goes on and

on. Okay.

Have you lost someone close, Sean? Thanks. Bye. Someone you loved.

Yes.

I'm sorry, Sean.

But I am glad you called.

You grieve for as long as you need to.

There's no schedule.

It's a process you go through as you learn to deal with it.

But you are going through it, Sean.

You're starting to move on.

Do you think she was killed downstairs?

Or up here?

I'd say the killer surprised her upstairs.

She certainly took a terrible header.

Why not?

C -sharp, I'd say.

Not possibly B -flat, although my pitch is far from perfect.

I'm sorry.

What time did you get home?

I... I called you straight away.

The police.

I don't know.

2 .30?

Maybe early. I don't know.

Mr. Murray, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay here for a couple of days.

Until forensics are finished.

Is there somewhere you can go, a friend or a relative?

Yeah, my colleague.

She's going to pick me up.

I don't know.

Stephen?

Oh, Michael.

Her name's Diane Murray, and she was stabbed.

Single blow to the back of the neck.

Not necessarily fatal in itself.

But? But it seems it severed the spinal cord and caused paralysis, making it

impossible for her to breathe.

I'd say she suffocated to death.

Deliberately aimed it?

Possibly, but struck with that force, I'd say more like a lucky blow.

Unlucky. Time?

Between ten last night and three this morning.

I'll be able to be more specific when I've had the potassium count, but I'll

you know in any case. Thanks, Stephen.

Morning, Mike.

Hi, Robbie. Who's Jackie? She's with the husband.

Who's he?

Robin Murray, the radio guy.

He does some late -night problem chat show in Caledonia.

Warm words.

He's really good.

Wouldn't know, Stuart.

He's not usually a radio. I'm calling up to you that time of night.

Michael.

Mr Murray, GCI Jardine. I'm really sorry.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Shall we?

Doesn't look like a robbery.

There's no sign of disturbance.

She interrupted him?

Took him by surprise?

I think that makes him look pretty calculated.

He's waiting for her.

Here's her come in, hide, and takes her to the top of the stairs.

Michael?

Michael? Yeah?

The light bulb's missing.

Maybe the killer wanted it dark.

He was waiting on her.

Well, it doesn't look like a burglary.

What's the husband's alibi?

He was on the radio last night.

Did you hear him?

No. Yeah, well, confirm it.

Any idea who saw her last?

Murray mentioned a miss.

Abby Marshall?

She's his partner at the Meron Clinic, some kind of therapy centre.

Well, that should keep you both occupied.

What time did last night's show finish?

Two. It's our first night in the new slot.

Got an extra night, which is great, but the hours are total murder.

Did you know Diane?

No. I mean, I'd met her, yeah, but no.

Margaret, are we on your way?

So how long have you worked with Robin?

Three years now.

I met him on the drive -time show.

It was his first time on radio, but you could tell straight away.

People just opened up.

It's amazing.

He just has it.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry about the slot. It wasn't our decision.

Oh, but Robin helped them make it.

Later on tonight at Caledonia FM, Robin Murray will be here with Warm Words. Now

it's time for the Caledonia FM Classic Collection.

Robin's forerunner. Used to get good figures, but they cut her slot to give

the extra night.

Labo M.

Yeah? You know it?

Yeah. It's Madame Butterfly that really does it for me.

I'm the same.

This universal life force energy has aided in healing heart disease, cancer,

skin problems, cuts, bruises, headaches, colds, flus, sore throats, sunburn,

fatigue, insomnia, impotence, poor memory and lack of confidence. I was

that.

Sorry to keep you. Abbey Marshall.

I'm afraid Robin's gone.

He has a counselling session at the Burnet. The Burnet?

It can be hard to cancel.

And he thought that by helping someone through their crisis that perhaps he'd

help himself through his own.

I believe you spoke with Diane last night. She left her mobile phone here

day before. I was working late, so... What time was that, Anne?

Half eleven.

Maybe midnight.

Are you interested in Reiki?

Reiki?

What is it you do?

Shiatsu and aromatherapy.

Not quite as mystical, if that's what bothers you.

No, no, no, it doesn't bother me. I prefer the hands -on approach.

So can you think of anyone who may have wanted to attack Diane?

Oh, no.

No, not at all.

Diane was so... grounded.

Such a lovely person.

What do you reckon about her?

She seemed genuinely upset.

Yeah, but I noticed she picked up my eye this morning.

Worth keeping in mind.

Hands -on approach.

Yeah, well, I do have a bit of muscular stiffness.

Sure you do.

Davy McCann.

I thought they weren't going to let you out this time. Dug my way under the boys

with a spoon, didn't I?

Are you behaving yourself?

Give my regards to your boss.

I'm sure he'll be glad to hear I'm in such good health.

Mr Moray.

Yeah, Ross.

So how long have you worked for the Barnet?

Couple of months. Keeps me honest.

Surprise, you're working today.

Doing what you do.

What I do is I help people in pain. I work both ways.

Do you know of anyone who'd have any reason to attack Diane until you

any threats that you know of? No.

No, there's been nothing like that.

This may seem like a strange question, Mr Murray, but do you use a lamp in your

home?

Yeah, of course.

Do you know if it was working last night before you left?

Yeah.

Think about Diane.

When will the post -mortem be finished?

For the funeral.

Stephen puts the time of death at between half past twelve and two o

morning. So the killer was waiting for Diane.

Or Robin.

Last night was the first of a new slot for the show.

He'd normally be home by that time of night.

Yeah, but you could hardly mistake Diane for Robin, even if it was dark.

He needn't have been a direct target.

Well, he's a public figure.

Yeah, I guess all kinds of weirdos tune into that show.

That all right, Stuart?

Someone sending out a message?

Carrying out a threat?

Hmm.

Oh, Mike, did you know he works at the Burnet?

Mixed up in something there?

Oh, yeah, David McCann was asking after you.

He's out?

For what it's worth.

OK.

I found out if Murray was under pressure himself.

Jackie, Brian phoned to say he'd be late, but make sure and wait for him.

Oh, yes.

Must wait for Brian.

Thank you, Heather.

Fine.

Better.

It's not been easy, but it's been no bad.

We've talked, you know, communicating.

Well, if your mother would keep out of it for five minutes, her and her bloody

sisters, a lot of them, and actually her bloody father.

Why do you always have to bring my family into it? If you could address

thought to me, Andrew.

The kids are now going to Pakistan for the whole summer and that's it.

That is not it.

That is not what this is about. It's about her father never letting go. It's

about her choosing her family over me again.

That's why we're here.

I'm a family now. Me and the kids, that's where her loyalty lies.

Right.

Ah, what's going on here?

Why are you so keen to hear her story all the time? Why do you always come out

bad?

I'm afraid Robin's had to rearrange all his sessions, Fina. What did he say last

time?

I know the problem here, pal.

He said I might like to try group.

If you could address your thoughts to me.

Please, take care of him.

He's going through a bad time too.

Tomorrow afternoon okay for you?

Fine.

You're under a lot of pressure.

No warm words.

Hi, Stevie.

Yeah, I'll try and put you through.

If you could just hold.

Stevie on line two.

Alex, I have another caller on the line. I think I should take it. Will you call

again tomorrow?

We'll be focusing on anxiety.

Will you do that, Alex?

Putting you through. Thank you.

Now, we've got Stevie on the line. I think we all know Stevie.

Hello, Stevie.

Stevie, are you there?

Uh -huh.

It's good to hear you, Stevie. I'm pleased to hear your voice.

Did you see someone?

Can you find someone to talk to?

There's no point.

You still feel the same.

That may as well be dead.

Sorry to keep you holding.

Nothing's changed.

Nothing.

It's all the same.

I've got the pills.

Have you taken any of them?

Stevie, have you taken any of the pills?

Can I just take your number and I'll call you back?

Not yet.

And why is that?

I'm going to.

I think I helped you, don't you?

Of course.

Of course you did.

Do you want a coffee or something?

Oh, thanks, Miss Noah. I want a bit of chocolate.

Maybe tomorrow.

Yeah.

24 hours a day, this is Caledonia FM.

No.

night job sit there all day sit in your bath time people come

to you share their secrets tell you their troubles and you screw them up

this is not the right place that's what you do let me help you find a way

through your troubles you caused my troubles i don't think you divorce that

what she wants that's what you did i'm true you

talk too much

Hi.

Robin's not here if that's who you're after.

Well, maybe you can help.

Ever have any threatening calls on the show?

Get some weird ones right enough.

I wouldn't call them threatening.

Of course, you get the morons who think it's a great idea to say Arse on live

radio. But I can spot them a mile off.

Would Robin tell you someone has threatened him?

I don't know if he'd tell me something like that.

We're close.

We work well together.

Keep it professional, you know?

This is at the end.

After she sacrifices her son to Pinkerton's wife.

God.

I think he takes a knife.

And Pinkerton comes rushing in. But it's too late.

Never fails.

I fill up every time.

So do I.

I use you to your callous.

Heartbreaking. I'm in floods the moment she opens her mouth.

I've never heard it.

Oh, you must.

I'll do you a copy.

If that's not illegal.

Well, maybe I could just let myself off with a caution.

Davy McCann!

How's it going?

And what are you planning on doing with your newfound freedom, eh?

Getting straight.

Can't say you're looking good on it, Davy.

You're not exactly a portrait yourself.

Getting old, Charlie.

Not any slower, Davey.

Word has it there's methadone hitting the streets here.

Do you know anything about that?

No. You see, I wouldn't want you going back into your bad habit, Davey.

It's the habit I'm trying to lose.

I never touched any men gear.

Never.

But ten years of crawling the walls in the Bar L makes you see the attraction.

Poor Davey.

Oh, I'm not the first.

I've seen it happen.

I know what it does.

But it's not going to kill me.

Just to spite you, maybe.

Do you know Robin Murray?

Yeah.

Not a close acquaintance, I take it?

No, not exactly.

Look, Inspector, you're going to have to excuse me. I need to see a man about a

drug.

Have you had any threatening calls, letters, people following you?

I won't.

approach last night after the show.

It's difficult.

It's a client, Andrew Thompson.

What do you think?

He didn't exactly threaten me. It was more his manner.

What if he got against you?

He and his wife came for couple therapy, and from his point of view, the result

wasn't quite what he'd hoped for.

People can project all kinds of feelings onto their counsel. It's part of the

process. Some of these feelings are negative.

Dangerously negative.

You disappointed and hurt. I didn't think you were dangerous.

Some clients do use me to help focus and express their feelings of aggression.

What kinds of feelings of aggression?

Oh, I don't know. They get angry. They shout, they cry, they blame me. They

me sometimes for a while. It's part of the journey.

Do you think this guy Thompson understands it's part of his journey?

I think so.

I hope so.

You don't think he might want to focus his feelings of aggression more

forcefully? I don't know. I don't know.

Can

I help

you?

Hope so.

I've got a problem with my back.

Really? It's in my client book.

I've got crew in 20 minutes. It's here.

Is Sheena coming?

Good, good.

Sorry, it's all a bit much.

Dispone it.

No, no, no, I couldn't do that. It would be, um, no.

Are you okay?

No, I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm just a bit behind.

Are we finished, Inspector?

Sure. I was just thinking of taking advantage of Miss Marshall's services.

Really?

This is the end of Aquarius.

I'll see you later.

I've got a space later this afternoon, if you'd like.

Uh -huh. That'll be fine.

Bollocks.

Absolute, total bollocks.

I don't know how you can say that and keep your face straight. You don't know

him. I know you.

You can't lie to yourself here.

We won't let you face it.

He's never going to leave her. No way.

You're just saying that because your carpet fitter wouldn't leave his

girlfriend. He was an interior designer.

Anyway, that was a completely different situation.

No, it isn't. You're going to have an affair, except that they're going to

You're going to lie.

Everybody lies.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Can we let Helen make her point, please?

She's not making points. She's scoring them.

No, it's OK.

It was interesting.

But not helpful.

I don't think I'm ready to talk about it yet.

Not with strangers.

I completely understand.

A number of our group members have bereavement issues, so I thought, well,

hoped.

I'm afraid I let the discussion wander further than I should have.

How are you?

Not so good.

I was sorry to hear about your wife.

Yes.

Must be hard.

Yes, it is.

You know, perhaps we can help each other.

Tomorrow, then?

Maybe.

You either threatened him or you didn't.

14 years.

Sorry?

14.

You married?

No.

Well, what would you know about it, then?

Mr Thompson... They never liked me, her family. Never wanted it, never trusted

me. What do I know about bringing up kids, eh? They're only mine, right?

But we're all right.

I don't know why we went there in the first place.

Who did he think he is? What's he supposed to know?

Mr. Thompson, did you confront Robin Murray in the Caledonia car park last

night? They're all up.

Get their thinking 50 different kinds of shite.

It was supposed to be about us. Suddenly it's about her.

Aye, I confronted him.

Did you intend to harm him? I intended to put the fear of God into him.

Who were you on Monday night between midnight and two o 'clock?

Back late, been to the pub bed.

Caught some tea in her sleeping bag bed.

We might have to speak to you again.

In the meantime, I'd advise you to stay clear of Mr Murray.

Your channels are very blocked.

They are.

Oh, yeah.

I can feel it there.

You're holding in a lot.

What are you worried about?

No, I don't worry.

Frustration, maybe?

Depends what kind of frustration you're talking about.

You okay?

I think so.

Have you been working here long?

We've been running about a year now.

With Robin?

We're partners.

It's a joint investment.

Do you get on well with him?

Yes.

Would you say you're close?

We're friends as well as business partners.

And that's all?

Mr Ross, if you want to interview me, I'd rather you did it with your clothes

on. Right.

I thought it could be an interesting technique. I'm sure it'll get results.

Was that hands -on enough for you?

Yeah, yeah, that was... Are you doing anything tonight?

Would you like to book another appointment?

Definitely.

One massage and you're a convert.

Yeah, well, you must be good. Hope Robin appreciates you.

As I said, we're business partners.

What time's good for you?

What time do you finish work?

For your next massage.

All right, right.

Hello, Margaret. Listen, I'm sorry you lost your slot.

Let's be honest, shall we? Not my decision.

You lobbied hard enough to make sure it went in your favour.

Well, I am sorry you feel bitter about it anyway.

Bitter? This isn't about me.

This is about all those vulnerable psyches you take advantage of. I don't

advantage of anyone.

Look, we're both in the same business of helping people. My methods happen to be

a little different to yours, that's all.

You haven't got a method.

You just tell people whatever it is you think they want to hear.

Whereas you give advice, yeah? Cold showers and pull yourself together. The

steel -plated agony.

I have a show to prepare.

This is Caledonia FM.

You know the number? Give me a call if you wish to mention someone tonight as

play a classic song from Annie Lennox.

What are you doing on your desk?

What's the subject tonight?

Anxiety. Oh, yeah.

I've got a first call lined up.

Stevie Wonder? Yeah.

Why wouldn't he be?

Take it in your own time.

How's that?

Yeah, great.

Yeah.

Just give me a moment here.

Of course.

Ready when you are.

Well, I'm afraid that's all we have time for this evening on Caledonia Admin.

How many calls have we got?

We're busy.

Robin Murray is coming next with some warm word.

Okay.

Putting you through.

Welcome to Warm Words, and our first caller tonight is TV. How are you, TV?

It's not getting any better.

Oh.

Sometimes I think I'll be like this forever.

Stevie,

I think we should have a talk tonight.

What's the point?

Nothing's changed.

Things are changing.

Look how far you've come already.

You've done well, Stevie.

I have?

Every time you've called, every time we've spoken, we've heard you growing in

strength and confidence. I'm proud of you.

I know it's frightening, but you're doing so well.

Now it's time to move on. I know you can do it.

Well, I suppose, but...

talking to other people you can find your way through maybe

now it's time to get out there into the world what i want you to do steve is i

want you to call next week and tell me how you're getting on okay stevie and i

think we'll find that you're doing very well

Is that too harsh?

No, not at all.

He needed to hear that.

He's taking time from other callers.

Watch how many calls back.

Tell him next week. Give him your time.

Welcome back to the warm world. Oh yeah, that perennial problem. How to break

the ice and win the partner of your dreams.

Why'd they call in?

I mean, even the funny ones sound sad.

Everyone's lonely when the lights are out.

Not everyone.

Not all the time.

No.

Not everyone.

But I've always found that a wee spot of make -up goes a long way. Gordon, if

eyeliner works for you, I say use it.

Lucy likes men with dark eyes, don't you, Lucy?

Neil online, too.

Our next caller is Neil.

Neil, any make -up tips you want to share with us?

Neil?

We seem to have lost Neil for the moment.

Neil?

I've got this problem.

How can I help you with that?

Noises.

Come at night.

What sort of noises?

Kind where someone's trying to draw breath, but they can't. They open their

mouth, but they can't draw breath.

Drowning. Like a fish out of water.

Flopping about.

Thrashing around on the floor.

Bleeding.

Lungs burning.

I know there's someone dying.

Dying like you're going to hear me.

You're going to die with your lungs pumping and your eyes pumping.

Sure you don't recognise him?

Could it be Andrew Thompson?

He's so heavily disguised, I don't know.

I can't tell.

Was he threatening when you first took the call?

I wouldn't have put him through.

I thought he had a cold.

What about his number?

We've got caller ID, but it didn't work.

They must have dialed 141.

We need a copy of that tape.

Sure.

You think he's serious?

You tell me.

Could just be a hoax.

Or maybe somebody's trying to scare you.

Yeah, you're doing a good job.

Here.

Here.

The callus.

Make sure you have a box of man -sized tissues before you listen.

Thanks. I think I can get complimentary to Tosca tonight.

Would you like to come?

Nice of you to ask, but... None of my friends will go because they think it's

boring. Really?

Well, yeah, OK.

If you've got the tickets, that'd be really nice.

Great. I'll call you later.

Shame you couldn't make it.

Yeah.

What is it, Mrs. Thompson?

I'm Detective Sergeant Reed. This is my colleague, D .C. Fraser.

What's he done?

Pardon? Andrew, what's he done?

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

Was your husband at home on Monday night?

He says he was back late from the pub, around midnight.

No.

That's not right.

I'd have heard him.

He can't have been in before three.

I remember, I couldn't sleep.

You're sure about that?

Oh, hi. Absolutely.

Is your husband in now? No.

Where is he?

I don't know.

I don't particularly want to know.

Was he at home last night?

No.

Call it a trial separation.

And you've no idea where he might be?

It's a 3 .30 at Hamilton, all right?

Hey, are you going to interview me or what?

Just a friendly wee chat, Davey, my man.

Friends? And you?

You're helping us with our inquiries.

Listen, I'm getting three.

What I need, I get in a prescription, and that's it.

Aye, mate, not everything at Burnet has your convenient arrangement.

They still manage to get their method on.

I'm talking a lot of folk here, Davey.

Are you going to jazz me with something?

Davey.

Nice to see you.

Can I go now?

Of course you can.

I'll walk you out.

Mike.

Okay, Jarvan, I'll get you up. What do you want?

It's nice to be nice, Davey.

Just thought you'd like to get back and reacquaint yourself with the place.

I could see if I find out you're behind that methadone leak at the Burnett

Centre. You're going to see a lot more of it. Do you understand?

Well, that's the plot, Charlie.

You're in order.

What have you got against Robin, Murray?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

He's a charming man.

Gift of the gab.

And if there is anything going on, you're not going to hear it from me.

I'm no grass.

You don't carry any weight with me, Charlie.

It's like I said.

I walked through it, but I wasn't really there.

It's not right.

15 years old, it's not right.

It shouldn't, but it seems even harder when it's a child.

Your boy.

Harder than what?

I lost my husband some years ago.

Do you want to talk about that?

You know how that feels, don't you?

Does it matter to you that I do?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think it does.

Then of course, yes.

I know exactly how it feels.

Did you talk to someone then? You had someone to fancy?

I was younger.

I couldn't handle it. Couldn't talk to anyone.

But you can now.

Same time Tuesday.

Fine. If you need to talk before that about anything, anything at all, you

me any time.

You're not allowed.

You find Thompson yet?

No.

You know that call should have put the frighteners on Murray?

He's got some kind of lecture tonight.

He's asked if we could provide some present.

He wants a bodyguard.

This could be just some drunken bam.

I'm not going to commit to a big resource without evidence.

You don't mind, do you, Jackie?

Yeah.

Actually, I do.

I've got something on tonight.

What, you mean really something?

Yeah.

I'm going to the opera tonight.

It's got a hot date.

Ah, Robbie.

Fancy expanding your mind, Robbie.

Murray has got a lecture. Want to be with him?

Not a chance.

You do it.

I can't. I'm otherwise engaged.

No. Sorry.

Abby Marshall's going.

All right, all right.

I suppose I could. As a favour, go back through Davy McCann's records. See if

there's any reference in Rob and Murray.

Do you think they're linked?

Well, there's bad blood between the both of them.

And they've both got the Burnett Centre in common.

I play Spinks.

Do you, er... Do you think there's anything between Abby and Murray?

They should turn you down.

I was thinking motive.

Robin!

I think we need to talk. Casey, what are you... Now's not a good time. When?

What? When's a good time?

I don't know. Tomorrow.

Look, I'm already late for my lecture.

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow, yeah?

That was brilliant.

I really enjoyed it.

Yeah, it was great.

Cheers.

Puccini.

Puccini.

Always ends badly for someone.

What does?

Opera. What do you mean?

First act's all about mad passion, sweeping romance.

Second act's lies and betrayal.

Third act, dead.

That's why it's tragic.

It's all melodrama.

Seems realistic enough to me.

Did I enjoy it? Well, joy is not exactly the word that brings to mind, but...

Well, that's it.

Good. Oh,

that's a beautiful bracelet.

Does it come with healing properties?

It's American Indian.

Robin spent a lot of time in the Navajo desert learning shaman rite.

He brought it back for me.

Really?

I believe it works.

How's your back?

Oh, much better, thanks, Darwin.

I mean, Miss Marshall.

But, um, I will definitely be needing more of your, uh, treatment.

Listen, uh, I was thinking... Well, I was wondering if you might... Dr. Roth,

you met my colleague, Margot Hamilton.

Yeah, pleased to meet you. How do you do?

Oh, did you find that interesting?

Uh, fascinating.

Margot thinks the work we do at the Marron is unscientific.

And irresponsible.

We seek to treat the whole being, you know. It's a balance between the

the spiritual and the psychological.

You simply pander to the touchy -feely, new -age psychobabble brigade.

We get results.

You get audiences.

You're playing to the public, Robin.

Meaning what? Meaning that suicidal teenager you've been stringing along

in, week out for the benefit of your voyeuristic listeners.

Tune in for next week's exciting installment. Will he take the pill this

I helped that boy.

No, you helped yourself.

Where is he now?

Still alive?

Or have you just moved on to your next victim?

Come on, Robin, I'll drop you back at the hotel.

Which one?

The merchant.

Listen, thank you for coming tonight.

I feel a bit of a fool wasting your time. The phone call, probably a hoax.

Not at all, no problem.

I need to drop some stuff off at the marron.

I can't. This is a sad message. I'm trying to make the point.

Hi, Stephen.

You finished already?

Finished? I haven't even started yet.

Yeah, a message for Abby.

I mean, Miss Marshall.

Listen, I need to talk to you about an incident at the Merrin. And also, do you

fancy going out to dinner tonight? I wonder if you knew the body in situ. The

fire has weakened the floor and it's too dangerous.

Mike.

Yeah? It was definitely Arthur.

So where were you?

Murray called it off.

Who's going to drop off a couple of leaflets here and then go back to the

with Abby?

Where's she?

She's not picking up.

Who's this person he was having the argument with?

Doctor. Some sort of rival.

I'll get the background details from Abby.

I'm sure you will.

They're bringing the body out now.

Let me through, please.

I work here. Let me through, please.

Oh, my God.

Please, sir.

Abby.

So I was still taken up.

She dropped me off at the hotel first.

Brought the leaflets back here herself.

She insisted.

As if they were important to her.

Listen, I want you to go and speak to this doctor. What's her name?

Margo Hammond.

And get Jackie to find Andrew Thompson.

Mr. Thompson.

What?

We'd like a word.

Down at the station, if that's okay.

Noise of someone dying.

Like you're gonna die.

Hear me? You're gonna die.

What is this?

Talking books for pervert police.

Was it 1987 or 88?

Look, I'm going to miss my script here. When you touched the Wilson place?

Refresh my memory.

87 or 88?

I done my time for that. What is your point?

What were you doing at 10 .45 last night?

Watching the telly.

What did you see? A pile of shit.

Look, I'm just trying to get straight.

What have you got against Robin Murray?

I've told you, I've nothing to do with it.

Nothing to do with what?

Whatever Murray's up with at the burner.

I'm a patient, that's all.

I'm just part of the programme.

And I cannae miss my script.

Are we not finished?

Aye, well, I am.

Look at me, I'm thrown apart here.

I'm not what I was, whatever you think I was.

I don't know nothing about anyone these days.

I'm just trying to get straight.

Yeah. Right.

People change.

My people do.

But no animals like you.

Ah, well, you've not changed a bit.

Take him down.

What? I haven't done anything!

Thank you, Sergeant.

What am I...

A professional disagreement.

Nothing more.

You chose a very public venue to express yourself.

I don't see any reason to disguise the fact that I find Robin Murray's

methods... Shallow, exploitative and unhelpful.

He's very successful.

He seems to be.

Meaning?

Meaning appearance isn't everything.

What about Abbey Marshall?

Robin's masseuse. Not his first, I'm sure.

Understand Murray took over your radio slot.

That's true.

Which he wanted to keep.

I hardly think professional disappointment is grounds for attempted

Murder? The murdering clinic was burned down last night.

Miss Marshall was in sight.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Why would anyone do such a thing?

People have the strangest motives, as you're well aware, in your professional

capacity.

Your job's important to you.

Yes.

You married?

As a frustrated spinster who lives through her work and becomes obsessed

eliminating her rival.

Very Victorian, but hardly plausible, Inspector.

I have a client.

I'm sorry to hear about Miss Marshall.

Robin must be upset.

But no doubt he's well insured.

I'm sure you'll be in touch.

Indeed.

It must be lonely.

Sorry? All that effort to impress.

You want to make a commitment, have a meaningful relationship, but something

stops you.

So there you are, with only expensive suits and a charming manner for company.

I'm sure you will find someone.

Eventually.

We do not need to. Why keep lying? You still have an alibi. Contact with the

police could push him over the edge. He'd collapse under questioning.

We're talking about murder.

I know, but if we tell them, it looks bad. It looks so bad for both of us.

It was an emergency, wasn't it?

You're not lying to me.

Of course.

Please, sweetie.

Dying like you're going to. Hear me?

You're going to die with your lungs burning and your eyes popping and...

Where were you last night?

Where you found me?

Practicing being single.

Did anyone see you?

Practice makes perfect.

No. So you've got no alibi?

I don't need one and I did nothing.

So you keep saying.

But you're running short of alibis, Mr Thompson.

What do you mean?

Well, on the night that Diane Murray was murdered, you claimed that you were

late back from the pub.

Aye. Yeah.

Landlord tells us that you left about midnight.

Your wife tells us that you didn't go home till three in the morning.

She's lying.

Those are three very important hours, Mr Thompson.

So what do you think?

Well, he's got a strong motive for getting at Robin.

Makes you wonder why people bother.

What do you mean?

Getting married.

It gets real bitter.

What about Francis?

Nothing. Tell your boss I want his pal out of here.

Don't see why I could be doing any dirty work.

Oh, come on, Heather.

Just the one.

Help you unwind after a long, hard week.

I'm not the one that needs unwinding.

Eh, Jackie.

How well do you think the merding was doing?

Looked plush enough.

Yeah, but was it making money?

Why? Eh, just something Margot Hamilton said.

Get anywhere with Thompson?

He's got no alibi.

Robert Murray alleged that he threatened him in the car park, but there's no

witnesses.

Think we can hold him?

What about David McCann?

What about him?

Duty officer wants him out. He's not looking too hot.

He never does.

Michael?

Okay, okay.

What?

You shouldn't have.

I didn't. Well, now, let's see.

Jackie, Jackie.

Secret admirer.

What's Brian got to say?

OK,

look, it's no big thing.

No fuss.

We're getting married.

Brian and I.

Oh, that's brilliant.

Well done.

Ah, great new jacket. Oh, thank you, Heather.

Are the children in yet?

Yeah. But, well, I'm not waiting it to work.

I'll only get nicked.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Congratulations.

Both of you.

Thanks, Robbie.

I need my script.

And I need an answer.

And I'm going to serve.

What have you got against Robin Murray?

That's Tommy Bryant.

Who?

Look, either you're going to let me out now, or you get me a doctor and a

lawyer.

Play the hard man all you like, Jordan.

It makes you feel any better.

To me, he's just a piece of shit.

Don't pull that again.

Ever. So.

No nominations in the Country Music Awards, but six in our home country of

Canada. This is Caledonia FM's Country Corner.

It's been weeks since Mama died.

Little house I used to hide.

Raise arm.

I will see.

No. I can't get away at the moment.

We're really busy.

Lunch?

Yeah, that'd be great.

About two?

Okay. See you then.

You haven't told her, have you?

She was just being friendly.

Aye, right.

Not having.

Not good, Stuart.

Far better, to be honest.

Well, that's big coming from you.

What's that supposed to mean?

Well, you're hardly renowned for your open and honest relationships with

Eh, thanks for your insight, Stuart.

I mean, what would you know about relationships with women, anyway?

How's it going, wee man?

You know.

How's yourself?

At least I'm out.

You see me guy there? I don't see him about anywhere. Me guy there?

Tommy's boy?

Aye.

He's dead.

Did you know here?

No.

Catch you later.

It's OK.

It is OK.

What's wrong?

I had to.

I needed to.

I just need to talk to someone.

You said it would be OK.

It is, it is. Don't worry.

I just... It all got too black all of a sudden.

You need to talk.

And we will.

It's all right.

And listen, I can't see you at the Maron.

That's... Look, why don't you come round to the studio?

It's not ideal, but... Is that where I could see you this evening?

Would that be okay?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Good. Good.

It feels bad now, but... It will get better.

Gina! Sir.

Yes, what is it? Tommy Bryant, Davey McCann's mate. I've got a link.

He and Davey were sent down for dealing 15 years ago.

Tommy Bryant? I don't remember him.

He was unlucky.

He didn't have much on him. He probably got away with possessing these days. It

was Davey that had the real stash.

Surprise, surprise.

Looks like it was Tommy's only conviction.

Well, where is he now? I don't know.

Find him, then.

Just find him.

Thanks

for

collecting those statements.

That's okay. I'll have the rest done for tomorrow morning.

I want you to do a search for Tommy Bryant.

Find out where he is, what he's up to.

Lunch here?

Yeah, but I'll get sandwiches if you want me to start just now.

You know what I meant.

I just wondered if you'd fancy some lunch.

Oh, yes.

Yes, I would.

Good.

Lucy?

Sorry, I couldn't get away.

Where are you going?

Can I park up from your street?

Do you know it?

Yeah, that's the one.

I'm going to have to walk up.

I'm almost there.

What level are you parked on?

Five.

I'll see you up there in a minute.

Get a different pocket.

How's Stuart? Two by this.

He'll be okay.

Two by this?

If the lights were at green, if the machine worked fast... So what do you

Well, there's no way the killer could have mistaken her for Murray. This time

she was definitely the target.

I can't believe Murray doesn't know what this is all about.

Maybe he does.

Made a few calls about the Merrin Clinic. Smart West End address. Big

investment, but wasn't making money. In fact, it was losing quite a lot.

He's got a cast -iron alibi for his wife's murder.

He's the one that's getting the threats.

Could be a smoke screen.

You can blame yourself, Stuart.

It's not your fault.

I know.

You all right?

Why was Lucy so keen to meet?

She said she wanted to give me something.

It's going to be this.

Listen, Stuart.

What I said earlier in the office...

And

it just goes on and on.

Have you lost someone close, Sian?

Someone you loved?

Yes. I'm sorry, Sian.

But I am glad you called.

You grieve for as long as you need to.

There's no schedule.

It's a pro... Goes on like that for more than an hour till the end of the show.

Does it mean anything to you?

It's just an old show.

From August last year.

We can't be sure that she wanted to give Stuart the tape.

Could well be that she was carrying it around.

Coded message?

It's just a thought.

Stuart.

Find out what Davy McCann was doing at the time of the murder.

We'll go and give the news to Murray, if it is news.

Bring in Thompson.

See if he's missing another alibi.

Mr. Thompson?

Andrew?

Hello? Hello?

Someone there?

Maybe he got too close to someone at the Burnet.

Maybe he was too close to Davy McCann.

Why's it hot in McCann?

History.

Hello?

Why not get straight for him?

Well, if you really want to scare him, you go for the people he cares about.

With the money?

Get out of here! Get out of here, now!

Now!

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Okay,

Stevie, let's go through this again.

I was still there when they pulled the car from the river.

Saw it all.

It was freezing.

Like I used to say, but I didn't know anything about it.

One minute we're happy, laughing, everything to live for.

The next...

I went to beef with.

Drank.

Lost my job.

Everything.

Black.

If I hadn't been for Robin at the radio, I wouldn't be here now.

Did you phone Robin Murray's radio show and threaten to kill him?

He cut me off.

He was the only one I could talk to.

Why did you go to his house?

To talk.

Why did you take the knife?

I wasn't going to hurt him.

I was going to show him.

Show him he couldn't just let me down like that, cut me off.

I was going to hurt myself.

He doesn't care.

He never cared.

Should have known when he played that repeat.

He doesn't care what repeat.

Last Monday's show, it was a repeat.

How do you know?

I tape them.

All these shows.

I clear.

Do you keep the tapes?

Yeah.

You're listening to Warm Words with me, Robin Murray.

It's the silence.

And it just goes on.

Have you lost someone close, Sean?

Someone you loved?

Yes. I'm sorry, Sean.

But I am glad you called.

You grieve for as long as you need to. There's no schedule.

See?

Played it again last Monday night.

He doesn't care.

Never cares.

No supervision.

Call the surgeon at your discretion.

Oh, I will.

Please don't leave me in here!

I can't stand it! I can't be locked up like this! Do you buy this suicide

I mean, I...

Who are you looking at?

I've seen you. I've seen you every time.

15th of August last year.

Yeah, this was broadcast again on Monday.

Why would you do that?

I've just spoken to security.

Their log is you leaving the building at half past midnight.

Diane was killed between 12 .30 and 2.

I know what you're thinking.

Isn't that what you're trained for?

I did leave Ellie.

But I did not kill my wife.

Yet you got Lucy to cover for you.

Yes.

And now she's dead.

Yes.

The Merrin Clinic was losing a lot of money.

But you'll pick up the insurance.

It's a shame Abby had to burn to death. Enough of this. We were lovers.

Who? Abby and me.

That's why I left early for the week.

I met at the Marin.

I got Lucy to cover for me with a tape.

Why would she lie for you?

We were all so close.

And what did you tell her?

I told him it was an emergency.

A suicidal client needed to see me, Stevie.

It just seemed easier to let you carry on thinking I'd done the show, that's

all.

Where were you at 2 .15 this afternoon? I am the victim.

I am the victim here. I've lost everyone in the world I care about. And I'm

sorry I lied to you, OK? I'm sorry. But someone's taken them from me. I don't

know why. And I'm scared.

Who are you scared of?

Stevie McCann?

What's he got to do with it? He's in jail.

Not at the moment.

I used to know Davy McCann. We used to know each other.

I haven't always been... We were young.

Davy was the dealer.

Tommy and me, we just had a bit of... Tommy Bryan?

And Davy got busted.

They wanted... I wasn't good. Why should I?

So I made a deal with them.

You grasped them up?

They were sent.

And you got off scot -free.

Cam's not one to let go of a grudge.

We all know what he's capable of at his cross.

He's about his revenge. Why am I all this time? Why is it now? I mean, what

about money?

The affair's a big motive for doing the wife, right? Then he finds out Lucy's

going to give the tape to Stuart, so he kills her to cover her tracks.

What about Abby?

Started losing money.

Tortures it for the insurance.

Accidental. It's all circumstantial.

You've been busy.

Go on, you take me in.

Could

you

wait?

He was home that night.

When Robin's wife was killed.

Came in about half eleven.

Lay down, out like a light.

Why didn't you say before?

I'm sorry I wasted your time.

D 'ye, Ross? Mary, how d 'ye? Hasn't she?

Only to say you can't find McCann or Bryant.

Why?

Okay, I'll be right down.

I just need someone to talk to.

Had it been raining all day?

When? The night of the crash.

No, it was...

I was snow.

You was driving?

I was.

Nosedive or spin?

Off the bridge.

Front first.

Do you want the door or the window?

What are you doing?

To get out. Water's rising. You're going to drown.

Door or window?

Door. No, window.

Window. How many ambulances?

Two.

One. Two.

Two or one? One or two? What was it? I know snow.

What do you mean? I don't know what you mean.

There was no car crash.

No young wife tragically killed.

No wife at all, in fact.

No children's syndrome.

Sad bastard syndrome.

Sir? Yeah?

Tommy Bryant's dead.

Couple of years back, he OD'd.

My head.

Aye, I got hooked inside.

How long has Murray been working at the Burnett Centre?

A couple of months.

So, McCann gets out and walks straight into his old pal.

He's out for a motive.

Where's Stuart?

Looking for McCann. And Jackie?

She phoned from Thompson's. He's in the clear. We'll tell her to get round to

the radio station.

Until we find McCann, Murray's at risk.

Eh, I'll see you later at the radio station.

Where are you going?

What can I do for you this time, Inspector?

Where did you go after the lecture last night?

Straight home, to have supper with my husband, as I'm sure he'll be happy to

corroborate. Did you know Robin Murray was having an affair with Abby Marshall?

The news doesn't come as a complete surprise.

How well did you know her?

Well, I'd met her professionally a couple of times.

Robin's colleague.

Is that what last night was about?

What, jealousy?

Oh, please, Inspector.

I'm a little more discerning about my men than Abby Marshall seems to be.

I'm sorry, that was... What about Lucy Richardson?

What about her?

She's dead too.

Inspector, I really think you should be talking to Robin Murray, not me.

I'll see myself out.

John.

I've got a visitor coming in for an interview.

Will you give me a call when she arrives?

And then after that, we're not to be disturbed.

Okay, Governor.

Yeah?

Okay, send her down.

Where are you going, then?

Good to see you.

Why just through here?

David!

you had to come here, but as long as you're comfortable...

Sit down.

So, Sheena, what would you like to talk about?

You seen David McKay? No. You sure?

Aye.

Any joy? No, sir.

I blame myself.

All the time.

Should have seen it coming.

What I could have done.

Didn't.

Blaming yourself doesn't help anyone. You need to avoid yourself.

You only avoid confronting the problem.

And I have to do that, don't I?

Confront the problem.

If you feel safe enough.

And you are safe here.

No, there's no sign of him here.

We'll meet you and Jackie at the radio station.

A whole piece of you ripped out.

Dead.

My whole life has just... stopped.

You know, I know exactly what you're going through.

Michael, McCarranfield's gone into Caledonia.

I know what you're feeling.

Do you?

You feel lost, abandoned.

No longer part of humanity.

Yes.

Can't nobody care?

Yes.

Would you mind if I... How

do you feel?

What do you mean?

You say you understand, but how do you feel?

I feel for you.

Excuse me.

I'm looking for Robin Murray.

Where's Murray?

He's okay. He's got a meeting with a woman.

Thanks.

I've suffered loss too.

Terrible loss.

And it hurts.

Really?

I may be a therapist, but I am a human being too.

With human frailties.

And human needs.

I don't think that's true.

I don't think you're human at all.

Rob and Maddy?

Should do three downstairs.

Yes.

She had Gary while Tommy was in jail getting hooked.

What happened when Tommy died?

Social took him.

He's in and out of care ever since.

Tried to keep an eye out.

Difficult for myself.

What about Sheena?

Cranks, clinics, breakdown.

She never go over Tommy.

No, really.

And we Gary OD'd a few weeks ago.

Can she blame Murray for it all?

Wouldn't you?

He says he helps people. He doesn't. He destroys them.

Should have came to me, Davey.

Aye, right.

Chief Inspector Jardine. The smackhead's friend.

People change.

I'll be in touch.

What? You see, they took the liver from one cadaver and swapped it with the

other. I was so green I didn't even notice.

Mind you, it would never happen again.

More champagne?

Oh, yes. And an empty glass.

I'm sure you're more interested in living bodies.

Don't worry about it, Stephen.

It must have been so hard to hide it, Jackie. I mean, it's gorgeous.

Did Brian see this?

Yeah. Would it be of any help?

It was a lot of help.

Hey, I heard that.

Yeah, I've watched that one.

She's making eyes at you.

You haven't come in with a chance.

Yeah. You play your cards right.

Congratulations, Brian.

Thanks. Come on, Jackie.

You can't hide away all night.

Don't you dare. Come on. Come on, give us a speech. Come on.

I know you won't give up till one of us says something, so just a few words.

No speeches.

I just wanted to say I never in my life dreamed I would find someone like

Jackie, and I'm very, very, very glad that I have.

I know that the audience is aware of my experience of personal tragedy, an

experience that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

I don't pretend I'm perfect.

I don't behave well most of the time, or even some of the time.

I certainly don't pretend to have all the answers.

But if I'm to gain anything, to move on, then I would hope that I have

gain the humility to approach other people's pain with care and sympathy

and empathy.

So if you're out there and you need to talk, pick up the phone, call me.

Our next caller is Michael. Michael is 45 and he's still a virgin.

Hello, Michael.

What would you like to share with us?
