Original subtitles

Female, mid -thirties. Head bashed in. Not pretty.

Who found her?

Jogger, about seven o 'clock.

That's a jogger? His kids entered him in a half marathon.

Says he doesn't want to embarrass them.

Better tell him it's too late.

First few strikes probably killed her.

The rest was just overkill.

The attack was frenzied, brutal and clumsy.

That's the trouble with killers nowadays.

No subtlety.

Yeah, I blame my parents.

She was probably killed sometime last night, and given the lack of blood, not

here. She was dumped.

This looks fresh.

Deep tread.

Quite wide.

A van.

What a fool before.

Stopped here, dragged her over there.

Dumped her in the ditch.

Jim, near a casting here.

Well, the suit's designer.

Sure they're expensive.

At least they are when they're up here.

No sign of the other one.

Tina Brogan.

She's married.

35.

Her address is about a mile from here.

No attempt to conceal her identity.

Killer's either cocky or an amateur.

Maybe both.

I mean, the attack's sloppy.

The disposal's opportunist.

I mean, you wouldn't plan to dump a body here.

There's stuffing money in her mouth.

Well, that's deliberate.

That's a message.

Pinnacle Business Network seminars. Meeting today, Westford Hotel Conference

Suite. She picked up a flower?

No, no, thanks, sir.

Says here Tina Brogan's the company director.

Pinnacle isn't so much a business network as an invitation.

An invitation to a new life.

An invitation...

to a new you.

I know what you're thinking.

Too good to be true?

Success only happens to other people?

Five months ago, I was sitting where you are, thinking the exact same thing.

But here I am today, a testament to this organization.

I've got money, I've got success, but most of all, I'm in control.

I accepted the invitation.

Will you?

Mr.

Brogan!

Okay.

Listen, I've got to go. I'll talk to you later.

I'll try the back.

You got a problem, pal?

No.

You have.

I live next door.

Thought you were trying to rob the place.

Looking for Mr Brogan?

Terry.

Not saw him in a couple of days.

What about his wife?

Her neither.

Tell you the truth, we're all glad to get back peace and quiet.

Meaning what?

Meaning they're quite noisy.

Always arguing.

Argy.

What about?

Everybody argues up the same thing.

Just use different words.

Very good.

Aye, I read it somewhere.

Any idea where we'd find Terry?

More than likely the pub.

He likes a drink.

Alcoholics usually do.

How did it happen?

We're still working on that.

We only found her this morning.

Found her?

Yeah, about a mile from her home.

I knew something was wrong.

I just knew it.

What makes you say that?

Well, she didn't show this morning.

Tina never misses a meeting. She's dedicated to Pinnacle.

What is Pinnacle exactly?

Well, it's...

It's a unique network for women.

Mainly for business women.

Exclusively for business women. We offer strategic advice, life coaching,

business contacts to our members.

Members? So you charge a membership fee?

£3 ,000.

That is exclusive.

And you pay a commission for each new member recruited or taken?

An incentive, yes.

Sounds like pyramid selling to me.

Pinnacle's a network, not a pyramid.

When did you see Tina last?

Yesterday.

We had a lunch meeting in her hotel room.

I'll take a look at that, sir.

Carol can show you.

Oh, this looks more like an office than a bedroom.

Were you close to Tina?

Not really.

Hilary and I go way back, though. She introduced me to Tina.

And Pinnacle? Yes.

Though I'm not as dedicated to it as Hilary or Tina.

You didn't get rich quick.

Does anyone?

You sound sceptical.

Not at all.

Pinnacle's not just about money.

We've transformed a lot of women's lives.

I'm just happy to help with the organisation.

Turning ideas into opportunities.

Building relationships.

Relationships are more important to me.

Friend of yours?

I think his name's Harris.

He was here yesterday morning.

He threatened Tina.

Tina changed my life.

If it hadn't been for her and Pinnacle, I'd still be a mess.

Paul.

Everything okay?

It's Tina.

She's been killed.

What?

Paul's my husband.

A .P .I. Buck.

How well did you know Tina Brogan?

Only through Hillary.

Why aren't you at work?

I took the rest of the week off.

I thought we could spend some time together.

We've fallen in love all over again.

Lucky you.

Not luck.

Pinnacle.

Like I said, it changed my life.

Sir.

What's that all about?

Aye, Terry was here.

How did he seem?

Seem?

He seemed blitzed, like every other night.

Had to throw him out. What time is this?

About nine.

Any idea where he went?

No. But wherever it was, he was going to get there quickly.

Heard him screaming at the car park.

What was he driving?

One of these Jeep things.

4x4? Aye.

So you let a drunk get behind the wheel?

I warned him. But not the police?

How long do you think this place would last if the regulars found out I was a

grass? He could have killed someone.

Well, it wouldn't have made any difference.

Terry Brogan's a lot to himself.

Lacerations are ragged.

Skin and tissue embedded in the back of the skull, which is in bits.

Bludgeoned. With a proverbial blunt instrument.

Any other wounds?

Not really. A couple of bruises on the body consistent with the fall.

We have a time.

Around midnight last night.

Histology is still to confirm, but in my opinion, she was pregnant. Five weeks

at most.

Would she have known?

Her stomach contents say she didn't.

Last meal was oysters.

Presumably it's the husband's.

Well, according to the neighbour, they didn't get on.

Yeah, and apparently she'd been staying at the Westford Hotel for the past

month.

Find them.

Robbie? Hello?

Terry Brogan?

Are you Terry Brogan?

There is a male looking for her.

Tina.

You.

I'm afraid you've already found Tina.

Did she suffer?

Yeah, I'm afraid so.

Do you mind if we take a look around?

Please, feel free.

And did you see your wife last?

A couple of days ago.

She came round to pick up some things.

Whose are these?

They'll be mine.

Not that they helped.

No.

Cancer drugs don't mix well with alcohol.

Are you talking through personal experience?

Someone close?

Jackie, through here.

We'd like you to come down to the station, Mr Brogan.

Glad's confirmed that the blood found in your garage matches your wife.

Can you tell us where you were last night?

No. No?

I can't remember where I was.

Must have backed out.

As you said, the drink doesn't mix well with the drugs.

Okay. Can you remember where you woke up?

Countryside. Might need to narrow that down a bit.

All looks the same to me.

Well, you must have seen something when you woke up.

I seem to recall a boat.

A boat?

In the countryside?

Trust me, I'm as confused as you, but that's what I remember.

OK.

You woke up somewhere this morning.

And then what happened?

I wandered for a few hours.

Found civilization, then walked home.

So what happened to the jeep?

At the risk of repeating myself, I can't remember.

I blacked out.

Well, maybe somebody stole it.

Maybe.

Or maybe I just left it somewhere.

Wouldn't be the first time.

Get this bag.

Let's talk about Tina.

According to Carol, Tina was staying at a hotel.

She'd all but moved out.

She'd left me.

Been coming for a while.

I was resigned to the fact that my marriage was over.

She was the one that left you?

Can't say I blame her.

I wasn't exactly the ideal husband.

So you just let her leave?

Set her free, so to speak.

Something like that.

Did you know she was pregnant?

Could the baby have been yours?

Any idea whose it could have been? No.

The kind of betrayal that could make a man angry.

Especially a man in your situation.

I mean, I could understand. Could you?

Could you really?

Have you ever been in my situation?

No, I didn't think so.

She found someone new that didn't good for her.

As for having a baby, Jesus.

Do you think I could have killed her because of that?

I'm not convinced you did it.

You didn't buy the charming drunk act, did you?

Tina Brogan with having another man's child, that's motivation right there.

but I don't think he knew about that until today.

She was killed in their garage, for God's sake.

And why was there no blood on him or his clothes? Well, he cleans his stuff up

and changes his clothes.

Do you look at his foot?

Looks like he's been wearing it for a week.

Boss, he's got no alibi.

Unless you can't have the boat.

Yeah, he claims he woke up next to a boat.

Stuart, what are you having?

I'll have a pint lager.

What did you turn up at the house?

A laptop.

I'll start looking at it tomorrow.

But I found this.

Flight booking?

It's an e -ticket.

Tina Brogan was due to fly to Sydney this morning.

So, we've got a wife, pregnant with her lover's child, and about to leave the

country. Doesn't look good, does it?

Yeah, well, the last time I checked, how it looked didn't stand up in court.

You really think he's innocent, don't you? No. I said I'm not convinced.

Look, if he did it, let's make sure we get him, follow everything up.

All right.

Who's first?

Well, Tina's lover.

Who is he?

When did he see her last?

Pinnacle. I want to know more about that scheme.

And Harris.

We know that he was threatening Tina.

Why?

Any further tracking Harris down?

Eh, well, the credit card he used at the cafe is registered in a London base.

He's got family in Glasgow. We'll find him. No, we can't hold Terry.

We'll let him go for now, but he's still the prime suspect.

In the meantime, I think Jackie's right.

Let's do this properly.

Kid today, eh?

Can't kick a ball straight.

Something you wanted?

Need to ask you some questions about Tina Brogan.

What kind of questions?

Well, let's start with why you threatened her.

She conned my mother out of her home.

Next question.

Can you tell us where you were the night before last?

Here.

Looking after Mum.

I think I'd like to speak to Mum.

Mrs Harris?

You won't get much out of her.

Dementia. She's not all there.

Have a shithole, eh?

How long you been here?

Couple of weeks.

Social put us up after Brogan ripped us off.

Yeah, you want to tell me about that?

I've been working down south for the past year.

Got a call about three weeks ago from the guy who was renting Mum's house

he wanted his deposit back.

He was leaving?

He was told to leave.

He got a letter saying the house had been sold.

And you and your mother knew nothing about this.

Right, Mum.

I went round there and found some prat at Botman's home.

I said he'd sell us, but I'd tipped him off to a quick sale and it was done and

dusted in a week.

How can someone sell you a house without you knowing?

Well, you need to be fly for a start.

And fast.

But it's a lot more common than you think.

What happened to the money?

Good question.

See, we didn't see any of it.

The rent money had been paying for Mum's care home.

I couldn't afford it, Mum.

So I had to move her out.

Are you Charles?

Who's Charles?

Dickens.

She's a big fan.

She was before her brain went.

Are you a nurse?

Sort of.

I've been meaning to get rid of that.

It was taken back in the bad old days.

Before Pinnacle and Tina rescued me.

So, are you any closer to catching the person that did this?

We're looking into a few things.

Like what?

Like Tina having an affair.

Well, she never mentioned anything to me.

Did you ever see her with another man?

Somebody she might be close to?

Never.

Mind you, I wouldn't have blamed her if she did look somewhere else.

Why then?

Terry Brogan's a waster.

A drunk into the bargain.

I never understood why Tina stuck with him.

I suppose that was just her way.

Her way?

Tina was selfless.

She was always trying to help people.

Including me.

She changed my life.

So what makes you think Tina Brogan was involved?

Right.

I found her... in Mum's room when I moved her

out the hall.

She's a fully paid -up member.

Pinnacle? Brogan.

Maybe she chose to join.

Does she look like a businesswoman to you?

The membership cost three grand.

I checked with the bank. The money went out six weeks ago.

Is this it?

Is this all you've got?

Well, I reckon Brogan pocketed the membership money.

There went nobody made a fuss about it.

She went after everything Mum had.

Not exactly proof, is it?

Not yet.

But I'll get it.

Don't you worry about it.

Pinnacle's a scam.

It's a standard pyramid set -up. You members are encouraged to recruit

with most of the membership fee going to Tina Brogan.

And he got all this off a laptop?

No. The guys in fraud have been watching Tina.

Fake credit cards, dodgy loans, ID fraud, VAT scams, a fair number of

too. Sarah Pauley, Martina Cassidy, Valerie Balfour.

So Pinnacle was winning a long line of scams?

She took over the scheme six months ago.

What do you mean, took over?

Well, Pinnacle's been up and running for a couple of years.

Popped up in London, Birmingham, Cardiff. Back then, Terry Brogan ran the

Imagine a chain.

Imagine I recruit six people.

That's the first link.

Those six recruit six people each.

That's 36 people in the second link in the chain.

Now, repeat the process.

By the third link, you have 216 people.

Far forward to the 13th link, and you're talking over 13 billion people.

Spot the flaw?

There's only 6 billion people on the planet.

Pyramids came to life for two reasons.

People are greedy, and people can't account.

I was under the impression that Tina was running Pinnacle.

For the past year, she was.

I wasn't fit for it.

Tina was smarter than me.

She decided to make Pinnacle an all -female affair.

Bloody genius.

Is that why you married her?

Marriage was her idea.

Made us look more respectable.

More trustworthy for the investors.

Fair play to you.

That worked.

You managed to con a lot of people, did you?

You make it sound as though we're mugging folk.

There's a lot of effort goes into a con.

There's a lot of love.

Love?

You have to get to know folk.

Invest in them, find out what's important to them, and make that

you.

Yeah, I see.

Then you steal their money.

I'm just saying, conning folk is a very personal and intimate experience.

Then why don't you tell us where you were?

Told you.

I can't remember.

Then how do you know you didn't kill her?

I'd never thought, dear.

If you do remember, give me a call.

Who made the call?

Hillary. Said he was outside the house.

He's inside now.

Shut your mouth and I'll belt you in the mouth! Right!

Right! Last chance!

Where's my money?

Where is it? Where's the money?

All right, stay

where you are.

Of course I didn't kill her.

Then why did you tell Hilary Marsh you did?

Because I wanted the money. Thought I could scare it out of her.

You told me that Tina Brogan conned your mother.

Not Hilary.

They're all in it together, aren't they?

That pinnacle Jan.

How is he?

Her husband?

Broken nose.

He's not going to press charges.

Can I go, then?

Here's the problem, Frank.

You've got motive.

For Tina Brogan's murder, but he's got no alibi.

I told you, I was at home with Mum.

We both know that Mum is not a strong enough witness, don't we?

I was at home.

We checked your file, Frank. Oh, here we go.

It's very interesting, really.

Yeah, putting a teenager in hospital is pretty serious, Frank.

Especially when that teenager happens to be your wee brother.

What did John do?

Break your train fit?

Bit more to it than that.

I could hope so, seeing as you did six months for assaulting him.

You don't know what you're talking about.

You know nothing, absolutely nothing about my family. I know that your father

beat the hell out of your brother on a regular basis.

And when he died, you took up what he left off.

Trust me, he deserved it. Like Tina Brogan deserved it.

Look, I'm not sorry she died.

She conned my mother out the rest of her life.

I didn't kill her.

Jackie, I got the broken service provider to give us their internet

Pretty ordinary, apart from this.

Connection? Fixed contact site.

Seld itself as a chat room. It's really just a place for people to connect.

Swapping, swinging, dogging.

Dogging? Sex in a car park.

Big fancy jeep?

So was she maybe in the car?

Or was she watching?

Nah, a bit dangerous.

Kind of the point, Jackie.

There's quite a few emails from this guy, Smyke.

The meeting arranged for the night Tina Brogan was killed.

So this is who Tina was meeting?

No.

That's who Terry was meeting.

He wrote the emails.

So, can we connect to this Smyke character?

Sure. We just need a man's name.

Yeah, well...

I've always thought Robbie Ross had a nice ring to it.

What do you think?

He's got a temper, I'll give you that.

But murder?

No, I'm not convinced.

His record's pretty convincing.

Look what he did to his brother.

According to social work, the brother was trouble.

Gave the family a lot of grief.

It was Frank who took responsibility for the murder.

Didn't have it easy.

The dutiful son.

His mother favoured his brother to fight everything.

All right, let him go.

Keep an eye on him.

So what about the house?

Do we know if Tina did call on Dorothy Harris?

Well, I spoke to the solicitor who did the conveyance thing.

He said the fella was acting on behalf of her aunt.

Her name was Sarah... Sarah Polly.

Aye.

Do we know her?

It's a false name for Tina Brogan.

Well, she had a power of attorney deed signed by Dorothy Harris.

So how did Tina get it drawn up?

Dorothy's got dementia.

She would have needed help.

How did Tina target Dorothy?

She would have had to have made contact with her to get her signature.

Well, according to Frank, Dorothy was in residential care for the past two

years.

Police called Lilybank.

Can I have a look at that, Robbie?

Recognise the building, sir?

I don't know what you're talking about.

You were working at Lilybank the same time that Dorothy Harris was a resident.

We checked with the care manager.

You would have seen Dorothy every day.

So what?

I didn't know her.

She was just another... Did Tina Brogan ever visit the home?

No.

Well, maybe a few times.

She used to pick me up when we had an evening meeting.

Did she ever speak to Dorothy?

Oh, she spoke to lots of the residents.

She was a very genuine person.

Very sympathetic.

Tina Brogan was a con artist.

She's been fleeting people for the past five years.

She flees Dorothy Harris of her house and home, left her and her family

destitute.

There must be a mistake.

The only mistake here is you.

You introduced Dorothy to Tina. Because of you, that woman's got nothing left.

That's enough.

My wife's told you.

She didn't know Tina was conning that woman.

Please.

We've had enough for one day.

If I get my way, this will be one of your happier days.

What the hell are you doing here?

I was in the neighbourhood.

Yeah? Well, how did you know it was my neighbourhood?

I'd be amazed at the information you can get from a mobile phone number.

You can't be here. They won't let me back in the house.

Where am I supposed to go?

A hotel, a hostel, a cardboard box. I don't really care.

Can I come in just for a minute?

No. I need to make some calls. My mobile's out.

See?

I need to clear some things up.

Why didn't you tell us about this?

Rather, the world didn't know I go cruising for rent boys.

Did Tina know?

Tina was smart enough not to ask.

But yes, she knew.

Doesn't mean we didn't love each other.

So this is who you hooked up with after the pub?

Met someone in town.

Don't ask where. I was in no state to remember.

We will find him.

If he vouches for me, says I was with him, that mean all this goes away?

Let's just find him, eh?

Thanks.

But believe in me.

I'll call the taxi.

Charles!

Charles!

Charles! Charles!

Your mother okay?

She's fine.

Charles!

Mum.

You're not, Charles.

It's okay, Mum. Look, look, look, look, look. It's okay.

What do you want?

Seems you were right about Tina Brogan.

You got her money?

We're still looking on it.

Great. Listen, I've got to get her in. She's soaking.

Come on.

Where's Charles?

In the house.

Yeah. How long will it be?

Oh, great.

Thank you.

What's it like at the end?

You think about it.

You think you'll fight all the way.

Be strong.

Brave.

The problem is, son, I was never a fighter.

I just wanted to give in.

Lie down.

I was threatened that though, wasn't I?

I mean, you have to be brave to give up.

Can I stay here just for tonight?

No.

Can we at least have a drink together?

No.

It's time to go.

I can't.

Look, you can't stay here. No, I mean... I've no money for the taxi.

Jackie, guess what?

Tina Brogan withdrew £300 ,000 from her account on the day she was murdered.

Robbie, there's something I need to tell you.

Most of that came from the fail of Dorothy Harris's house, which begs the

question, where's the money now?

Robbie, listen. We need to check Terry's account.

No, Terry's skin.

How do you know?

Because they turned up at my flat last night. They didn't even have a taxi fare

home.

Run that by me one more time.

He was inside for literally ten minutes. I gave him money and then he left.

You gave him money?

Jackie, he's a murder suspect.

No, he has an alibi. We just have to confirm it. This is a disaster.

Look, Robbie, I don't think it's that big a deal. Oh, yes, it is.

Otherwise you wouldn't have been waiting out there to tell me.

Oh, Jackie.

I knew this was going to be difficult for you.

But I thought you could handle it.

What do you mean, difficult?

Well, Terry's condition, you know, the cancer.

Bringing up all those memories of Brian.

I think you should watch what you're saying, Robbie.

You know, you've been making excuses for this guy ever since you found out he

was dying.

No.

I have been following procedure by the book.

Oh, really?

And where does it say in the book that you can let a murder suspect into your

flat?

Yeah, you're right, Robbie.

I've made a mistake.

But thanks for being so understanding about it.

Thanks for being a friend.

I don't know anything about this.

Mr Boyd, this deed has your signature on it.

I'm sorry.

I'm up to my eyes on it today. My office manager's not here.

It was used to sell a house without the owner's knowledge.

I didn't sign that document and I've never met Sarah Polly.

What about Tina Brogan?

Never heard of her.

Well, can you check your record? Look, I wouldn't know where to start.

My office manager deals with all that.

Do you know where I can find her? Him.

And unfortunately, he's on holiday.

Have you any more conspicuous or have you parked a squad car outside the front

door?

I've got nothing to say to you.

Good, because I've got something to say to you.

Look, Robbie, I'm really not in the mood. I'm sorry.

Me too.

So when's this guy Smike going to turn up?

Just about now.

I don't do couples.

Good. Because we don't do smart -ass wee red boys.

He's all charming, eh?

Never seen him before.

We know you arranged to meet him four nights ago.

Maybe I never showed.

Look, we're not interested in you or what you do.

But this guy needs you.

You're his only alibi.

Terry.

Likes a drink.

Jeep.

Right.

So you did meet him?

A couple of nights ago, aye.

Where?

Here.

Then off to somewhere else.

Show us.

Got here around ten.

Parked over there.

So what happened?

He was drunk.

Talking a lot of rubbish.

Said his wife was leaving him.

He seemed kind of sad about it.

So after he told you about his wife?

I gave him a quick handjob.

And then he couldn't get out of here fast enough.

Guilt kicks in, you see.

What time was this?

About eleven.

Last train was leaving.

So what did you do then?

The night was still young.

I had someone else to see.

Did he vouch for you?

You tell me.

The guy with the cot.

On you go.

Well, if Terry left at 11... He gave him time to get home.

I killed Tina.

So you found this in the boot.

Jeeps confirmed as belonging to Terry Brogan.

Tire tread?

Yeah, matches the impression we took at a crime scene.

So what about blood and fibres?

Well, fire put paid to most of it. The soccer reckon they might have a partial

thumbprint on the driver's door.

Is that it?

Not quite.

Found this in the boot.

Well? Yeah.

It's Tina's missing shoe.

So we know Terry left his rent boy at 11.

Tina was killed in her garage about 12.

We now know that she was in Terry's car. So it seems Terry broke his arm out.

Jackie? Yeah, we're not arguing with the evidence, but my instinct tells me he

didn't do it. What else is there?

Well, we still haven't found Tina's lover.

Or the money she withdrew on the day she was killed.

I think your instincts could be wrong on this one.

Let's bring him in.

It's all right, Jackie.

We can do this.

What do you want me to say?

I want you to tell her the truth.

I have.

He didn't kill her.

So you can't have this on the back of your jeep.

Do you remember torching your jeep? I don't remember anything.

Funny thing, your memory, isn't it? Comes and goes.

I mean, first you remember nothing, then miraculously you come up with his mind.

Actually, you lot came up with him and he proves I have an alibi.

Has he driving off at 11 yet? Plenty of time to go home and kill your wife.

Look, I don't know what happened.

I blacked out.

The next morning I woke up in the countryside.

See, the thing is, my officers are having a bit of a problem finding that.

Boats tend to hang around water, you see.

Come on, Terry.

We all know what happened.

You drove home.

You found out Tina was pregnant.

You realised she was leaving you. So you killed her. You dumped her body and you

torched the jeep.

You want me to say I did it?

Fine.

Go ahead and charge me.

Not exactly a confession, is it?

Give him an hour in the cell.

Any more on that print they found in the jeep?

Yeah, I ran a check.

Unidentified.

How's his condition?

Cancer.

Police doctors checked him over. They'll contact his GP.

Won't do any good.

Why not?

I think he's given up.

Stopped taking the medication.

Well, you contact his GP.

If he dies on the 3rd, I'll be up to him after some paperwork.

Stuart.

Got your text?

You get very cryptic in your old age. I thought I'd build up a bit of suspense.

OK, now you have me in your thrall.

What have you got?

Joseph Boyd.

Joseph Boyd.

The solicitor whose signature was on the power of attorney group. The solicitor

whose forged signature was on the deed.

He works over there.

Guess who the office manager is.

I'll give you a clue.

He's on holiday.

Paul Marsh.

The very same.

Paul Marsh is his right -hand man.

Boyd swears that Marsh is as knowledgeable about the law as he is.

So he could have put together a fake document?

Right, you've got something else.

Paul Marsh is a creature of habit.

He eats in the same place every day.

That's his restaurant of choice.

Tina Brogan's last meal.

Oysters. I checked with the head waker.

Paul Marsh and Tina Brogan had dinner there on the evening she was killed.

Police are anxious to interview two youths aged between 17 and 19.

I met Tina at the hotel.

Hilary introduced her.

And there was an attraction there?

Not from Tina.

She hardly gave me a second look.

But you gave her a second look?

I began picking up Hilary every night.

I think it accused her, really.

To see more of Tina.

Poor Hilary thought it was all about her.

Thought she'd rekindled our relationship.

So what changed between you and Tina?

I met Tina in the square one day.

Talked a little.

Went for lunch, then back to her hotel room.

So Tina Brogan suddenly found you irredistible?

I thought I'd charmed her.

Took me two months to work out what she really saw in me that day.

The power of attorney document?

Said her aunt was in trouble.

She wanted to release money from her home in order to pay for residential

Tina needed me to get her power of attorney.

So you forged the deed?

She said her aunt had memory problems.

Getting power of attorney over someone like that is a drawn -out process.

Tina needed to pay the bills fast.

And you weren't suspicious when she used the name Sarah Polly?

She said that was her real name.

Tina Brogan was the name she used for Pinnacle.

And you bought that?

I loved her.

I thought she loved me.

How wrong can you be?

Paul, do you... Did you know that Tina was pregnant?

You called me, Sarah.

Somebody been asking for you?

Terry Brogan.

Let me guess.

You picked him up by a railway bridge?

With a rather embarrassed estate agent.

Soliciting at this time of the day?

Client's a busy man.

Lunch is the only time he has free.

So you thought you'd ask for me.

See if I could put a word in.

Let you off with a warning.

No, I thought I'd ask for your partner.

See if she could put a word in.

She wasn't here, so I settled for you.

Nothing I can do for you, mate.

Oh, come on.

I helped you with that guy, didn't I?

Gave him an alibi.

Proved he was innocent.

He isn't innocent.

It's a pity.

He was a nice bloke.

Who brought him in?

Ferguson and Dale.

Last week I received a call from the solicitor who handled the sale of

Harris' home.

He told me his clients had been threatened by Frank Harris.

That's when I got suspicious.

Did you ask Tina about it?

We had dinner the night she got murdered.

She told me she'd withdrawn the money that day.

I told her we had to return it, that we'd committed a crime.

And what did she say?

She agreed.

Said the money was at the hotel.

I was to meet her there later and we'd return it together.

So what did you do when she didn't show up?

Tried to call her mobile.

When that didn't work, I started phoning the house.

She didn't answer.

Carol Kent did.

Okay.

We found £290 ,000 in your washing machine, Carol.

That's an accident waiting to happen.

Rogan withdrew the money at four o 'clock in the afternoon she was killed.

Which means you must have seen her after your lunch meeting.

Paul Marsh told us you answered Tina's home phone that night.

You mind telling us why you were in her house?

I needed to speak to her.

At twenty past eleven.

It must have been important.

I wanted her to end her affair with Paul.

I was worried about Hilary.

Worried about what she'd do if she found out.

It's very honourable.

What did Tina say?

She told me Paul and her were finished.

Said she was going away for a while.

Give him and Hilary some space.

Did you believe her?

She showed me the flight booking to prove she was going.

She even had a... backpacked in the hall.

So where did the money come in?

Tina went into the kitchen while I waited on my taxi. Robbie, that's a call

you. The phone rang.

Paul Marsh.

I wanted to scare him.

Let him know I knew.

What did he say?

He sounded panicked.

He told me Tina had condethal.

That she was disappearing with the money.

That's why I looked inside.

Inside what?

Tina's bag.

It was full of money.

I knew straight away that Paul was right.

She'd used us.

So you confronted Tina?

No.

I never even said goodbye.

I just picked up the money and walked out to my taxi.

And you decided to keep it all for yourself?

I'd never even seen that much money before.

Next day, I found out she was dead.

I told Paul, whoever killed Tina must have taken the money. Which is the

You took the money, you killed Tina.

No.

Terry Brogan did.

How do you know that?

As my taxi left, I saw him pulled into the driveway.

I'd know that Jeep anywhere.

I've got to check out the rest of us.

Well, Carol's obviously lying. There is no way that Tina Brogan would let her

walk out of the house with all that money.

We don't know, though.

You believe?

The taxi driver corroborates her story, I believe.

We've got her at Tina Brogan's house half an hour before she was killed.

No. We have her leaving. We have Terry arriving.

Yeah, according to her.

She knows that Terry's prime suspect. She knows that you're looking for an

excuse to charge him. I've got evidence to charge him.

The only person coming up with excuses around here is you.

Terry Brogan didn't kill his wife. What makes you so sure?

I just believe him.

That's all.

This fax just came through from his GP.

Sorry,

Jackie.

Technically, remission doesn't mean that I don't have cancer.

Technically, it doesn't mean you're dying either.

We're all dying.

No.

I'm done with the platitudes, Terry.

I never actually said that I was on my way out. All your talk.

About the end.

Find out what's important to them.

And make that important to you.

Oh, I'm sorry.

We've got an eyewitness that places you at the house just before Tina was

murdered. They're lying.

How would you know, Terry?

You don't remember anything.

I didn't tell her.

Jackie!

Jackie!

You okay, Jackie?

Fantastic.

Taxi driver confirmed Carl's story.

Charlton.

It's over.

That was a deal. Like it or not.

Bloody cheapskate.

Please! You've left your bloody car, you stupid bastard!

Another satisfied customer?

You looking for me?

Yeah, I wanted to ask you a question.

When you left...

Did Terry Brogan seem to you like someone who could kill his wife?

Did he seem to you like someone capable of cruising for rent, boys?

Look, every night I hook up with men.

Husbands, fathers, boyfriends, sons.

These guys are upstanding, respectable people.

And your point?

The point is, we don't know anybody.

Not really.

And everyone's capable of something.

Believe me.

So do you charge extra for philosophy?

It's all part of the service.

I cater for everyone's needs.

So who caters for yours?

What do you mean?

Well, family, friends, boyfriend.

Friends and boyfriends are hard to come by in this job.

And as for family, well, let's just say they don't understand.

Shouldn't you try and make them understand?

Nah.

They'll never change.

Well, they might.

After all, you don't know what people are capable of.

Must have been one hell of a party.

What do you want?

We've tracked down the money.

You'll not get it straight away, evidence and all that, but at least it's

gone for good.

You, uh, you want to tell me what happened here?

Family business.

Well, your brother turned up.

I thought he was long gone.

So did I.

But I just found out he's been visiting Mum at the home for the past year.

And I want those backers, not to let him anywhere near her.

So how did he get to here?

He's been signing in under a false name.

Charles Dickens.

Cheeky little bastard.

That's why she's been asking for Charles.

So what did he want?

To play happy families.

He expected to waltz back in here as if nothing had happened. And for her to

welcome him with open arms.

He decided to welcome him with fish and bread.

Well, after everything he did...

All the trouble he caused.

He practically drove my mum mad.

There's just some things you cannot forget.

Charles forgot his book.

He forgot his book.

He forgot his book. It's okay, Mum.

Mum, it's okay.

It's about time somebody sorted him out once and for all.

Robbie, he was telling the truth.

Who was?

Terry. He was telling the truth about the boat. I found it.

Okay, so he wasn't lying about the boat. He woke up there after he killed Tina.

No. The boat was six miles from where we found the jeep. So?

So why would he walk six miles in the dark across open country to the middle

nowhere? I don't know, Jackie, but he did.

It doesn't make sense.

Well, that's murder for you.

We know Terry Brogan was in the jeep. He was the only one who could have done

it.

Maybe not.

What do you mean?

The print on the driver's door.

Yeah, we've already checked.

Ross.

We ran the print yesterday.

It came up with nothing.

Yeah?

Well, today it came up with something.

Mike.

Otherwise known as John Harris.

Frank's brother.

He was brought in yesterday.

Maybe Mike didn't watch Terry leave after all.

Maybe he drove off with him.

Well, let's ask him. He'll still be in the cells.

No, no, I spoke to him last night.

They must have let him go.

Because I told them to.

Same time next week then.

Oi.

How many times you little shit, Jackie? I warned you.

Get up. Stay away from her.

Stay away.

Get up.

Get up.

You're okay. Just stay put. You're okay.

You're okay.

What a chance was I finding Tina Brogan's blood on this?

John Harris, I'm arresting you for the murder of Tina Brogan. You're not

to say anything.

Anything you do say will be noted and maybe used in evidence.

It wasn't planned.

Meeting Terry, I mean.

It's just coincidence.

I couldn't believe she was his wife.

I wanted her to pay for what she did.

So I dumped Terry in the middle of nowhere.

And I drove to the house.

All that rage.

I just kept hitting her.

So you killed her.

Because you can't your mother.

Why not?

For good reason if any.

To answer your question, no.

Terry Brogan didn't seem like someone who could kill his wife.

I think you loved her.

Good work, Jack.

To the point where you say to me, I told you so.

Yeah, well, we got there in the end.

That's what's important.

Stuart, do you get any idea why I keep getting emails inviting me to dogging

sessions?

Stuart?

Jackie?
