1
00:00:05,377 --> 00:00:06,967
Will you get us a drink, pet?

2
00:00:07,017 --> 00:00:09,957
Circulate, all right.
Enjoy yourselves.

4
00:00:18,177 --> 00:00:20,777
All right, Craig, get me a drink.

5
00:00:21,497 --> 00:00:23,207
Oh, easy!

6
00:00:28,657 --> 00:00:30,127
Excuse me.

7
00:00:30,857 --> 00:00:33,937
~ Right, I'm just going to say a few words.
~ Really?

8
00:00:38,617 --> 00:00:41,647
All right, everyone. Gather round.
Scottie's going to say a few words.

9
00:00:41,697 --> 00:00:45,596
~ Turn it off!
~ Can we have you on the dance floor, please?

10
00:00:45,816 --> 00:00:47,756
Where is he? Peter?

11
00:00:49,056 --> 00:00:50,766
~ Peter?
~ Come on.

12
00:00:50,816 --> 00:00:53,046
Little Peter Magath, where is he?

13
00:00:53,096 --> 00:00:54,926
~ Ah, there he is!
~ Go on, Peter!

14
00:00:54,976 --> 00:00:58,926
Now, little Peter may not have been
the smartest kid in the village,

15
00:00:58,976 --> 00:01:01,246
but he was the slowest.

16
00:01:01,296 --> 00:01:03,086
I've got short legs.

17
00:01:03,136 --> 00:01:05,326
We used to think, Michael and me,

18
00:01:05,376 --> 00:01:07,566
that Peter had been dropped
on his head as a kid.

19
00:01:07,616 --> 00:01:10,016
~ I had.
~ We felt sorry for him.

20
00:01:10,616 --> 00:01:12,406
We worried about your future, Peter.

21
00:01:12,456 --> 00:01:14,526
How's little Pete going to manage?

22
00:01:14,576 --> 00:01:17,606
We didn't know you'd end up one
of the richest sods in Newcastle!

23
00:01:17,656 --> 00:01:20,566
~ Did we, Michael?
~ No idea at all, Scottie.

24
00:01:20,616 --> 00:01:23,166
Should've paid more attention,
then, shouldn't they?

25
00:01:23,216 --> 00:01:25,766
~ Oh, they're only joking.
~ Hm. Hilarious(!)

26
00:01:25,816 --> 00:01:28,126
Now, when Peter came to me and said,

27
00:01:28,176 --> 00:01:30,926
"I'm going to make my
fortune laying pipe,"

28
00:01:30,976 --> 00:01:33,646
I thought he wanted to be a gigolo!

29
00:01:33,816 --> 00:01:35,486
~ What's a gigolo, Scott?
~ Ask Michael.

30
00:01:35,536 --> 00:01:38,526
~ Gigolo, that's right!
~ Michael thought tonight was fancy dress,

31
00:01:38,576 --> 00:01:41,246
so he's come as a Danish porn star.

32
00:01:43,896 --> 00:01:47,196
~ Have you finished? The pies have come.
~ Not yet.

33
00:01:47,816 --> 00:01:51,336
Our mate Michael, the best-dressed
Bolshevik in Newcastle.

34
00:01:52,456 --> 00:01:55,526
We're all grateful to him for
standing up for our right

35
00:01:55,576 --> 00:01:57,886
not to have our rubbish collected.

36
00:01:57,936 --> 00:02:00,886
It used to be I was talking rubbish,
or he was talking rubbish,

37
00:02:00,936 --> 00:02:03,166
now the whole of Newcastle's
talking rubbish

38
00:02:03,216 --> 00:02:05,125
~ because we can't get it collected.
~ Hear, hear!

39
00:02:05,175 --> 00:02:07,285
~ Scott.
~ Yeah, yeah, yeah.

40
00:02:07,335 --> 00:02:09,415
All right, seriously.

41
00:02:10,615 --> 00:02:14,135
I love Peter Magath. Just
like I love Michael.

42
00:02:15,295 --> 00:02:16,845
Lifelong friends.

43
00:02:16,895 --> 00:02:19,405
I love that Peter's an original.

44
00:02:19,455 --> 00:02:24,245
I love that he had a vision of what
he could be and he pursued it,

45
00:02:24,295 --> 00:02:26,485
even when we laughed.

46
00:02:26,535 --> 00:02:28,445
I love that he has faith in others.

47
00:02:28,495 --> 00:02:30,605
Maybe even in me.

48
00:02:30,655 --> 00:02:34,015
God knows the world needs
people like that.

49
00:02:36,735 --> 00:02:38,455
~ Peter!
~ Peter!

50
00:02:40,775 --> 00:02:42,565
Right, music!

51
00:02:44,855 --> 00:02:46,775
Yeeha!

52
00:02:51,495 --> 00:02:53,095
Yeeha!

53
00:02:57,015 --> 00:02:59,375
Yeeha!

54
00:03:04,735 --> 00:03:06,135
Come on!

55
00:03:08,415 --> 00:03:10,815
Whoo!

56
00:03:15,855 --> 00:03:17,615
Yeeha!

57
00:03:21,775 --> 00:03:24,244
'180 council dustmen

Body was discovered

69
00:04:12,214 --> 00:04:14,684
The sergeant reckons he was a jumper.

70
00:04:14,734 --> 00:04:16,604
~ Really?
~ There's been a few of them lately.

71
00:04:16,654 --> 00:04:19,084
They've pulled two out of the
Tyne already this month, sir.

72
00:04:19,134 --> 00:04:21,604
If he was aiming for the
river, he was a bad shot.

73
00:04:21,654 --> 00:04:24,084
Debt. Unemployment.

74
00:04:24,134 --> 00:04:26,484
Is this where they found
him? He hasn't been moved?

75
00:04:26,534 --> 00:04:28,244
No, sir.

76
00:04:28,294 --> 00:04:30,634
There's no blood around him.

77
00:04:31,294 --> 00:04:33,434
He was dead when he hit.

78
00:04:34,174 --> 00:04:36,724
~ Have we got a name?
~ We've got his wallet, but there's no ID.

79
00:04:36,774 --> 00:04:38,604
There's no money in it either.

80
00:04:38,654 --> 00:04:40,564
So, robbery, maybe?

81
00:04:40,614 --> 00:04:43,683
We've got this. It's a
receipt for a pawnbroker,

82
00:04:43,733 --> 00:04:46,323
a couple of betting slips
from the dog track

83
00:04:46,373 --> 00:04:49,883
and a note that says, "Gwendolen
Howard, 5:00 Wednesdays."

84
00:04:49,933 --> 00:04:51,803
Who's she?

85
00:04:51,853 --> 00:04:53,523
Gwendolen Howard?

86
00:04:53,573 --> 00:04:56,843
Sir? Sir, we're a bit shorthanded
with the bin strike.

87
00:04:56,893 --> 00:04:58,723
I need to release men to other duties

88
00:04:58,773 --> 00:05:01,323
if we don't absolutely
need the scene sealed.

89
00:05:01,373 --> 00:05:03,723
It's a crime scene, Sergeant.

90
00:05:03,773 --> 00:05:06,443
No, no, no. You heard him. Seal it.

91
00:05:08,093 --> 00:05:10,363
~ Sorry.
~ Dawson pawnbroker.

92
00:05:10,973 --> 00:05:14,173
A chance to get yourself
a decent suit, John.

93
00:05:25,013 --> 00:05:28,013
She died of leukaemia.
Left me her watch.

94
00:05:28,173 --> 00:05:30,923
~ I'll be with you in a tick, gents.
~ Thank you.

95
00:05:30,973 --> 00:05:33,443
What was your gran's name, son?

96
00:05:33,933 --> 00:05:36,163
Er... I just called her Grannie.

97
00:05:36,213 --> 00:05:40,483
I would've called her Glamorous
Grannie. This is a Rolex.

98
00:05:40,533 --> 00:05:43,043
Look, I-I just need the money.

99
00:05:43,093 --> 00:05:48,643
I'm sorry, son. Mr Dawson has very
strict rules about these things.

100
00:05:48,693 --> 00:05:51,963
I'm not sure that this really
belonged to your gran,

101
00:05:52,013 --> 00:05:53,283
may she rest in peace.

102
00:05:53,333 --> 00:05:56,493
~ What are you trying to accuse us of, like?
~ Being stupid.

103
00:06:02,212 --> 00:06:04,282
~ How are you today?
~ Champion.

104
00:06:04,332 --> 00:06:05,642
I'm sorry about the smell.

105
00:06:05,692 --> 00:06:07,842
The working stiff normally
has all my sympathy,

106
00:06:07,892 --> 00:06:11,042
but this set of work-shy
bastards, I could crucify.

107
00:06:11,092 --> 00:06:12,362
I've got rats.

108
00:06:12,412 --> 00:06:15,322
We'd like to speak
to Mr Dawson, please.

109
00:06:15,372 --> 00:06:17,802
He's not in at the moment.
Perhaps I can help you?

110
00:06:17,852 --> 00:06:20,122
Are you buying or selling?

111
00:06:22,052 --> 00:06:23,772
Ah.

112
00:06:25,772 --> 00:06:27,482
There is no Mr Dawson.

113
00:06:27,532 --> 00:06:31,132
It's just a name I can blame
when I have to say no.

114
00:06:31,492 --> 00:06:33,612
People can get, erm...

115
00:06:35,332 --> 00:06:37,722
What's the technical word? Arsey.

116
00:06:37,772 --> 00:06:40,122
Anyway, how can I help you?

117
00:06:40,172 --> 00:06:43,472
Can you tell us who you
issued this to, please?

118
00:06:44,092 --> 00:06:46,092
I can try.

119
00:06:51,812 --> 00:06:53,282
Here we are.

120
00:06:53,332 --> 00:06:55,442
6733.

121
00:06:55,492 --> 00:06:58,002
He gave the name of, T Dan Smith.

122
00:06:58,052 --> 00:06:59,122
T Dan Smith.

123
00:06:59,172 --> 00:07:01,642
A-ha. That's what it says here.

124
00:07:02,332 --> 00:07:06,722
So, T Dan Smith, until recently,
leader of the council,

125
00:07:06,772 --> 00:07:09,242
has fallen on hard times?

126
00:07:09,292 --> 00:07:11,282
Well, probably not.

127
00:07:11,332 --> 00:07:14,682
Some people aren't comfortable about
using their real names, you know.

128
00:07:14,732 --> 00:07:16,162
And not just the thieves.

129
00:07:16,212 --> 00:07:20,202
There's a lot of shame in
falling on hard times. Sad.

130
00:07:20,252 --> 00:07:22,481
Yeah, I can see the
tracks of your tears.

131
00:07:22,531 --> 00:07:25,601
Aren't you supposed to
take their identities?

132
00:07:25,651 --> 00:07:27,441
I'll tell Mr Dawson.

133
00:07:27,491 --> 00:07:30,001
I can do a full audit
of this place, sir.

134
00:07:30,051 --> 00:07:31,721
Maybe get it shut down, you know.

135
00:07:31,771 --> 00:07:33,961
Hey, and I thought
we were getting along.

136
00:07:34,011 --> 00:07:35,681
What was pawned?

137
00:07:35,731 --> 00:07:39,051
Four weeks ago. And
all on the one ticket.

138
00:07:41,611 --> 00:07:43,161
~ All this?
~ Aye.

139
00:07:43,211 --> 00:07:45,161
He said he'd be back for all of it.

140
00:07:45,211 --> 00:07:48,641
Mind, they all say that,
like, but I believed him.

141
00:07:48,691 --> 00:07:50,681
And all this is definitely his?

142
00:07:50,731 --> 00:07:52,401
No question in my mind.

143
00:07:52,451 --> 00:07:55,641
Well, if he's half-inched anything,
I'll be back to see you.

144
00:07:55,691 --> 00:07:56,881
Now I'm torn, aren't I?

145
00:07:56,931 --> 00:07:59,281
I mean, I don't want stolen
goods on me hands,

146
00:07:59,331 --> 00:08:02,641
but if it's a chance of meeting
you again, Sergeant...

147
00:08:02,691 --> 00:08:05,881
Your T Dan, what's he look like?

148
00:08:05,931 --> 00:08:08,761
Ooh... 40ish.

149
00:08:08,811 --> 00:08:10,961
Short dark hair.

150
00:08:11,011 --> 00:08:13,841
A bit taller than you.

151
00:08:13,891 --> 00:08:16,361
Beautiful skin, soft blue eyes.

152
00:08:18,491 --> 00:08:20,601
How much did you give
him for this lot?

153
00:08:20,651 --> 00:08:21,991
ã42.10.

154
00:08:25,011 --> 00:08:27,281
It's a hard life, isn't it?

155
00:08:37,091 --> 00:08:38,961
~ There you are.
~ Thanks, John.

156
00:08:39,011 --> 00:08:42,840
There's no missing person's report
matching the dead man's description.

157
00:08:42,890 --> 00:08:46,200
The pathologist hasn't got anything
yet and won't have until tomorrow.

158
00:08:46,250 --> 00:08:49,200
And we've got no Gwendolen
Howard on any of our files.

159
00:08:49,250 --> 00:08:50,880
Making progress, then(!)

160
00:08:50,930 --> 00:08:54,050
Don't shoot the messenger,
Inspector Bacchus.

161
00:09:00,490 --> 00:09:02,560
She never irritate you?

162
00:09:03,410 --> 00:09:05,000
No.

163
00:09:05,050 --> 00:09:07,600
Our man's not a thief, John.

164
00:09:07,650 --> 00:09:10,880
That pawnshop bloke could have sniffed
out a thief out a mile away.

165
00:09:10,930 --> 00:09:13,480
We watched him do it. He's
pawning the family silver.

166
00:09:13,530 --> 00:09:18,080
This is a man with a wife,
who's got rings and necklaces.

167
00:09:18,130 --> 00:09:19,760
At least, she did have.

168
00:09:19,810 --> 00:09:22,810
So, where is she? What's
she waiting for?

169
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:45,920
~ It's dead.
~ 'Right. How do you know that?'

170
00:09:45,970 --> 00:09:48,240
Because there's no dial
tone, that's how I know.

171
00:09:48,290 --> 00:09:50,120
'We've noted that you've
been cut off.'

172
00:09:50,170 --> 00:09:52,570
Well, why've we been cut off?!

173
00:10:11,209 --> 00:10:12,439
'Anita Magath.'

174
00:10:12,489 --> 00:10:15,959
Anita, Jo. Is my husband there?

175
00:10:30,969 --> 00:10:32,479
Tommy Cary?

176
00:10:32,529 --> 00:10:34,559
Aye. I've got me licence,
just not on us.

177
00:10:34,609 --> 00:10:38,529
You're all right. We want to know
if you know who this belongs to.

178
00:10:40,889 --> 00:10:42,319
Aye, I know him.

179
00:10:42,369 --> 00:10:45,039
He put a pony on the third race.
Doesn't happen very often.

180
00:10:45,089 --> 00:10:47,919
He chases his bets. Makes us uneasy.

181
00:10:47,969 --> 00:10:51,069
It's like watching them
jumping off a cliff.

182
00:10:57,649 --> 00:10:59,839
Is he? Jumping off a cliff.

183
00:10:59,889 --> 00:11:03,479
When you take the money, you try not
to think about the look in their eyes,

184
00:11:03,529 --> 00:11:05,319
but, aye, there's some
you feel sorry for.

185
00:11:05,369 --> 00:11:07,359
~ Was he one of them?
~ Jimmy?

186
00:11:07,409 --> 00:11:09,599
What, is it an addiction?

187
00:11:09,649 --> 00:11:10,799
Most people bet for a laugh,

188
00:11:10,849 --> 00:11:13,719
but some can't stop laughing till
they've emptied their pay packet.

189
00:11:13,769 --> 00:11:15,439
And that's when the crying starts.

190
00:11:15,489 --> 00:11:20,168
Bills to pay, bairns going
hungry at home, angry wives.

191
00:11:21,408 --> 00:11:25,758
It certainly keeps those guys busy
in that window, I can tell you.

192
00:11:25,808 --> 00:11:27,918
Who are they, loan sharks?

193
00:11:27,968 --> 00:11:30,598
I'm not really in
a position to judge.

194
00:11:30,648 --> 00:11:33,078
Did our man use them?

195
00:11:33,128 --> 00:11:34,558
I don't know. I suppose.

196
00:11:34,608 --> 00:11:36,998
Always managed to find a
bit of money from somewhere.

197
00:11:37,048 --> 00:11:38,678
Do you know his name?

198
00:11:38,728 --> 00:11:40,398
Aye. Said his name was...

199
00:11:40,448 --> 00:11:41,918
T Dan Smith?

200
00:11:41,968 --> 00:11:44,158
No. Richard. Richard Grainger.

201
00:11:44,208 --> 00:11:47,918
But when you find him, tell him there's
ã2.10 to come back on that.

202
00:11:47,968 --> 00:11:51,318
~ He won't be collecting it.
~ Off the cliff?

203
00:11:51,368 --> 00:11:53,638
Something like that, yeah.

204
00:12:01,208 --> 00:12:03,638
~ It's all part of the job, pet lamb.
~ It isn't, actually.

205
00:12:03,688 --> 00:12:06,558
~ I had to do it.
~ Oh, please don't tell me
this is character-building

206
00:12:06,608 --> 00:12:08,958
because you're living
proof that it's not.

207
00:12:09,008 --> 00:12:10,838
I could have you
disciplined for that.

208
00:12:10,888 --> 00:12:13,158
~ Go on, then.
~ Lovers' tiff?

209
00:12:16,088 --> 00:12:20,078
Right, guv, there's three Richard
Graingers in the Newcastle area.

210
00:12:20,128 --> 00:12:21,998
One is four years old, one's 78

211
00:12:22,048 --> 00:12:24,478
and the other one is alive and well

212
00:12:24,528 --> 00:12:26,198
and works at The Ministry
in Longbenton.

213
00:12:26,248 --> 00:12:29,248
So, the dead man's not
from the area, then?

214
00:12:32,208 --> 00:12:33,398
Do I amuse you?

215
00:12:33,448 --> 00:12:35,358
What, is this that T
Dan Smith blokey again?

216
00:12:35,408 --> 00:12:37,238
He's called Richard
Grainger now, is he?

217
00:12:37,288 --> 00:12:39,237
Are there any chocolate
biscuits, pet?

218
00:12:39,287 --> 00:12:42,117
What? What's funny?

219
00:12:42,167 --> 00:12:45,197
Grainger Street, Grainger
Town, Grainger Market.

220
00:12:45,247 --> 00:12:46,957
~ Yeah?
~ Richard Grainger.

221
00:12:47,007 --> 00:12:50,047
He pretty much built Newcastle
about 100 years ago.

222
00:12:51,967 --> 00:12:53,357
I knew that.

223
00:12:53,407 --> 00:12:56,357
Local knowledge, John.
Can't beat it, eh?

224
00:12:56,407 --> 00:12:58,477
The dead man's obviously
got a sense of humour.

225
00:12:58,527 --> 00:13:00,357
He was interested in
how the city was built

226
00:13:00,407 --> 00:13:03,117
and then he names himself
after two different blokes

227
00:13:03,167 --> 00:13:05,567
who are known as Mr Newcastle.

228
00:13:08,007 --> 00:13:11,727
I'll just go and, er... chase up
those choccy biscuits for you, eh?

229
00:13:15,327 --> 00:13:18,427
~ Still irritating you, then?
~ Teeny bit, yeah.

230
00:13:20,847 --> 00:13:22,717
~ (Lab report, sir.)
~ What?

231
00:13:22,767 --> 00:13:24,117
He's lost his voice, sir.

232
00:13:24,167 --> 00:13:26,997
He's got a cold, or flu, or summat.

233
00:13:27,047 --> 00:13:30,087
~ (Chest infection.)
~ Thanks.

234
00:13:31,887 --> 00:13:33,557
Just be happy.

235
00:13:34,887 --> 00:13:37,197
Three skull fractures.

236
00:13:37,247 --> 00:13:38,757
Injuries to the legs and upper body.

237
00:13:38,807 --> 00:13:41,677
Injuries are consistent
with a heavy blunt force.

238
00:13:41,727 --> 00:13:44,917
Could have been caused
by a fall. Blah-blah-blah.

239
00:13:44,967 --> 00:13:47,797
Multiple bruises and
lacerations. Victim was beaten.

240
00:13:47,847 --> 00:13:50,197
Wooden splinters found in
the skin and on the body.

241
00:13:50,247 --> 00:13:52,797
~ Well, we saw them.
~ Good examiners(!)

242
00:13:52,847 --> 00:13:55,357
Blood/alcohol level, 293.

243
00:13:55,407 --> 00:13:57,436
Surprised he could stand up.

244
00:13:57,486 --> 00:14:00,636
In no condition to defend
himself, was he?

245
00:14:00,686 --> 00:14:03,166
So, who is our Mr Newcastle?

246
00:14:16,726 --> 00:14:18,886
Well, let her in, Peter.

247
00:14:34,286 --> 00:14:36,436
~ Anything?
~ Have you spoken to Michael?

248
00:14:36,486 --> 00:14:39,916
~ Michael's not answering his phone.
~ What happened to your face?

249
00:14:39,966 --> 00:14:42,596
Have you called the RVI?

250
00:14:42,646 --> 00:14:46,246
What was Scottie doing exactly
the last time you saw him?

251
00:14:47,526 --> 00:14:49,196
Getting a taxi, I think.

252
00:14:49,246 --> 00:14:51,246
We were all stotious.

253
00:14:52,846 --> 00:14:56,076
Jo, maybe you should go back home
and wait for him to turn up there.

254
00:14:56,126 --> 00:14:58,756
~ (What?)
~ Jo, if you think Scottie's
done something stupid,

255
00:14:58,806 --> 00:15:00,796
you should be calling the police,

256
00:15:00,846 --> 00:15:03,716
not standing here staring
at me after 36 hours.

257
00:15:03,766 --> 00:15:06,106
Something stupid? Like what?

258
00:15:09,126 --> 00:15:12,166
My phone's still not working.
Can I use yours?

259
00:15:22,565 --> 00:15:24,305
Police, please.

260
00:15:29,845 --> 00:15:31,645
This way, please.

261
00:15:46,645 --> 00:15:47,845
Sir?

262
00:15:52,765 --> 00:15:55,835
~ Which one's the wife?
~ Er... it's the woman in the cream coat.

263
00:15:55,885 --> 00:15:57,555
Who's the other two?

264
00:15:57,605 --> 00:16:00,915
The bloke is Peter Magath,
the dead man's best mate,

265
00:16:00,965 --> 00:16:02,995
and that's his wife, Anita.

266
00:16:03,045 --> 00:16:04,955
Aye, look. Have you seen
the state of his face?

267
00:16:05,005 --> 00:16:07,275
They don't seem especially
close, do they?

268
00:16:07,325 --> 00:16:10,715
She called in saying that she was
worried about her missing husband

269
00:16:10,765 --> 00:16:12,555
and feared for his mental state.

270
00:16:12,605 --> 00:16:15,515
Her description of her husband
matches our man exactly.

271
00:16:15,565 --> 00:16:16,875
I'll take them down.

272
00:16:16,925 --> 00:16:19,435
No, no. Rachel, you take
her down. Sit with her.

273
00:16:19,485 --> 00:16:22,995
Watch her face and remember
everything that she says.

274
00:16:23,045 --> 00:16:26,075
Afterwards, assuming it is her
husband, bring her back here

275
00:16:26,125 --> 00:16:30,355
and if she wants to talk, let her
talk, but don't tell her anything.

276
00:16:30,405 --> 00:16:33,355
And afterwards, you bring her back
here and I'll come and find you.

277
00:16:33,405 --> 00:16:34,795
~ Um...
~ What?

278
00:16:34,845 --> 00:16:37,914
Do you not think she has the right
to know her husband was murdered?

279
00:16:37,964 --> 00:16:39,794
No. No-one has a right
to know anything

280
00:16:39,844 --> 00:16:42,554
till I know who killed Mr Newcastle.

281
00:16:42,604 --> 00:16:45,344
We work for the dead, not the living.

282
00:16:45,724 --> 00:16:47,604
Off you go.

283
00:16:55,684 --> 00:16:58,634
Are you sure she can manage it?
She's never done it before.

284
00:16:58,684 --> 00:17:00,754
Only one way to learn.

285
00:17:08,924 --> 00:17:10,594
Are you ready?

286
00:17:20,724 --> 00:17:23,324
Is this your husband, Mrs Parker?

287
00:17:29,804 --> 00:17:31,954
I-I-I mean, yes. It's
Scott all right,

288
00:17:32,004 --> 00:17:35,004
but... just the shell of what he was.

289
00:17:36,964 --> 00:17:38,904
What he used to be.

290
00:17:41,884 --> 00:17:43,884
(I'm sorry, Scottie.)

291
00:17:58,803 --> 00:18:01,473
~ All right.
~ Where did you find him?

292
00:18:01,883 --> 00:18:05,913
I, er... I don't have any details.

293
00:18:05,963 --> 00:18:08,473
How did... he do it?

294
00:18:08,523 --> 00:18:10,233
Do what?

295
00:18:10,283 --> 00:18:12,003
Kill himself.

296
00:18:14,203 --> 00:18:16,873
I'm afraid I don't know
anything about his death.

297
00:18:16,923 --> 00:18:19,663
Don't know much for a copper, do you?

298
00:18:20,283 --> 00:18:22,283
Are you the tea lady?

299
00:18:23,843 --> 00:18:25,833
When did you last see Scott?

300
00:18:25,883 --> 00:18:28,623
Night before last. Me birthday party.

301
00:18:29,643 --> 00:18:31,553
Happy birthday.

302
00:18:31,603 --> 00:18:33,793
~ Thanks.
~ Was it?

303
00:18:33,843 --> 00:18:35,913
~ What?
~ Happy birthday.

304
00:18:37,283 --> 00:18:40,393
Well, I was 40. Who wants to be 40?

305
00:18:40,443 --> 00:18:41,953
I wouldn't mind.

306
00:18:42,003 --> 00:18:43,793
Were you there, Mrs Magath?

307
00:18:43,843 --> 00:18:46,033
'Course. We were all there.

308
00:18:46,083 --> 00:18:48,923
Us, Jo, Scottie, Michael.

309
00:18:50,523 --> 00:18:51,923
Michael?

310
00:18:52,963 --> 00:18:55,153
~ Michael Woodruff.
~ Who's he?

311
00:18:55,203 --> 00:18:58,393
Michael and me were Scottie's best
friends. Since we were kids.

312
00:18:58,443 --> 00:19:00,513
Where can we find him?

313
00:19:01,363 --> 00:19:03,633
Organising the bin strike.

314
00:19:04,283 --> 00:19:06,553
Oh, that Michael Woodruff.

315
00:19:08,363 --> 00:19:10,503
~ Good news for rats.
~ Hm!

316
00:19:11,243 --> 00:19:14,512
Do you think we could take Jo home,
assuming she's identified the body?

317
00:19:14,562 --> 00:19:16,392
Although it might not be him.

318
00:19:16,442 --> 00:19:18,362
No, it is him.

319
00:19:24,282 --> 00:19:26,082
You seem to be...

320
00:19:27,962 --> 00:19:30,192
~ What?
~ Are you suspicious, or something?

321
00:19:30,242 --> 00:19:33,642
No. Though I wouldn't mind finding
out who took a lump out of your face.

322
00:19:35,122 --> 00:19:38,152
Oh, this. Oh, it's er...
hijinks at the party.

323
00:19:38,202 --> 00:19:42,392
Michael started smashing
chairs over our heads.

324
00:19:42,442 --> 00:19:44,432
Why was that?

325
00:19:44,482 --> 00:19:47,232
Pissed. Wanted to
see if they'd break.

326
00:19:47,282 --> 00:19:49,112
You know, like, in the pictures.

327
00:19:49,162 --> 00:19:51,992
Like Lee Marvin hitting John Wayne.

328
00:19:52,042 --> 00:19:53,442
Did they?

329
00:19:55,482 --> 00:19:56,752
Yeah.

330
00:19:56,802 --> 00:19:58,552
These are wooden, wooden chairs?

331
00:19:58,602 --> 00:20:00,832
Aye. Wooden chairs.

332
00:20:00,882 --> 00:20:03,282
Tell me more about this party.

333
00:20:03,802 --> 00:20:06,992
~ Oh!
~ It was at our restaurant, Pete's.

334
00:20:07,042 --> 00:20:11,152
Oh, the American one? Ah, right,
I've heard that's good.

335
00:20:11,202 --> 00:20:12,912
~ Do you own that?
~ Aye.

336
00:20:12,962 --> 00:20:14,962
No, we both own it.

337
00:20:16,002 --> 00:20:18,712
~ Right. Near the cathedral?
~ Yeah.

338
00:20:18,762 --> 00:20:21,232
Mighty fine ribs! We should go.

339
00:20:23,042 --> 00:20:25,032
Just near the High Level.

340
00:20:25,082 --> 00:20:26,362
Yeah.

341
00:20:29,762 --> 00:20:31,112
Here's some tea, Mrs Parker.

342
00:20:31,162 --> 00:20:32,392
I don't want a cup of tea!

343
00:20:32,442 --> 00:20:34,511
Jo! Jo, it's all right!

344
00:20:34,561 --> 00:20:37,391
~ Could you just...? Thank you.
~ Come on!

345
00:20:37,441 --> 00:20:40,641
~ (It's all right. Come here.)
~ Where's me bag?!

346
00:20:41,841 --> 00:20:45,471
(I've got it, I've got it.
It's OK. It's all right.)

347
00:20:45,521 --> 00:20:48,751
~ Shock.
~ To be expected.

348
00:20:48,801 --> 00:20:50,431
Yeah.

349
00:20:50,481 --> 00:20:55,311
I'll need a list of all the
people who were at your party.

350
00:20:55,361 --> 00:20:57,271
Also, the staff who were present.

351
00:20:57,321 --> 00:20:59,351
I don't understand, Mr Gently.

352
00:20:59,401 --> 00:21:02,671
My friend has taken his own life.

353
00:21:02,721 --> 00:21:05,111
We need time to deal with
this as best we can.

354
00:21:05,161 --> 00:21:07,311
Why are you asking for lists?

355
00:21:07,361 --> 00:21:11,321
I'm sorry, didn't I make myself
clear? Scott Parker was murdered.

356
00:21:14,481 --> 00:21:18,321
So I'll call round the restaurant
for that list about 7:00, all right?

357
00:21:19,361 --> 00:21:21,901
~ I'm not always there.
~ Be there.

358
00:21:25,681 --> 00:21:27,481
Bring your wife.

359
00:21:40,801 --> 00:21:42,791
Guv, there's something very wrong.

360
00:21:42,841 --> 00:21:44,751
That woman is weird.

361
00:21:44,801 --> 00:21:47,031
In the mortuary, first,
she said, it isn't Scott,

362
00:21:47,081 --> 00:21:48,991
just the shell of who he used to be.

363
00:21:49,041 --> 00:21:51,711
And the next thing, she's banging
on about how her car got stolen

364
00:21:51,761 --> 00:21:53,990
and how her house got burgled.

365
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,870
~ Were they?
~ I don't know, but I can find out for you.

366
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,920
And I think she said,
"I'm sorry, Scottie."

367
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,190
I'd like you to get to know
her over the next few days.

368
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,990
Meanwhile, we'll need everything
that we can get on Pete Magath,

369
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,350
Scott Parker and this other
guy, Michael Woodruff.

370
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,350
All right? Right.

371
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,510
Go on, in it goes!

372
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,150
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho!

373
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,950
Let's not forget, there was
no money in his wallet.

374
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,310
It's as likely to be a street
robbery, if anything.

375
00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:27,670
Nah. There was a ferocity to it.

376
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,190
Street robbers, they hit
you once, they're gone.

377
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,600
I think there was hatred
in this. A loss of control.

378
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:41,990
Gentlemen.

379
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,440
Looking for Michael Woodruff.

380
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,520
No?

381
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,520
Michael Woodruff?

382
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,950
What are you looking for him for?

383
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,750
That's our business.

384
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,000
~ What's he done wrong?
~ Who says he's done anything wrong?

385
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,310
This strike is not illegal and
we are not disturbing the peace.

386
00:23:03,360 --> 00:23:05,230
It's got nothing to
do with the strike.

387
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,420
It's about Scott Parker.

388
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,269
I'm Michael Woodruff.

389
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:13,709
What about Scottie?

390
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:16,519
I'm afraid he's dead.

391
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,119
It's all right, lads.

392
00:23:26,839 --> 00:23:28,109
Gone.

393
00:23:29,079 --> 00:23:30,789
Just like that.

394
00:23:30,839 --> 00:23:33,029
Did you see him leave the party?

395
00:23:33,079 --> 00:23:36,909
Was no party by the end.
Just the three of us.

396
00:23:36,959 --> 00:23:38,349
Then just me and Peter.

397
00:23:38,399 --> 00:23:40,669
What time did he leave?

398
00:23:40,719 --> 00:23:42,829
I don't know. 2:00?

399
00:23:42,879 --> 00:23:45,669
Where had everybody gone?

400
00:23:45,719 --> 00:23:49,629
Party ended pretty quick when Scott
started smashing the place to bits.

401
00:23:49,679 --> 00:23:51,389
Was he angry or summat?

402
00:23:51,439 --> 00:23:54,379
Aye. Smashing chairs
and the usual crap.

403
00:23:55,039 --> 00:23:57,549
Peter and me tried to
stop him, but he was...

404
00:23:57,599 --> 00:24:00,549
~ What?
~ He was uncontrollable.

405
00:24:00,599 --> 00:24:02,469
Off his head.

406
00:24:02,519 --> 00:24:04,829
Was this the game where
you were trying to see

407
00:24:04,879 --> 00:24:08,309
if the chairs would break,
like they do in the westerns?

408
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,629
~ Eh?
~ That's what Pete Magath said.

409
00:24:10,679 --> 00:24:13,469
Ah, well. Peter!

410
00:24:13,519 --> 00:24:16,189
Peter's the nicest bloke
in the world, man.

411
00:24:16,239 --> 00:24:18,979
Trust him to put a nice gloss on it.

412
00:24:19,039 --> 00:24:21,309
The bloke was smashing
up his restaurant, man.

413
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,099
~ Could Scott be violent, then?
~ Yeah.

414
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,659
Not head-banging violent, but...

415
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,298
Scottie felt the world
was against him.

416
00:24:31,678 --> 00:24:34,588
Take that resentment, mix it with
a couple of bottles of bourbon

417
00:24:34,638 --> 00:24:36,748
and it's goodnight, Vienna.

418
00:24:36,798 --> 00:24:39,398
Next day, he's full of apologies.

419
00:24:40,398 --> 00:24:42,798
There's no next day this time.

420
00:24:43,558 --> 00:24:45,788
Was he suicidal?

421
00:24:45,838 --> 00:24:47,038
Nah.

422
00:24:49,078 --> 00:24:50,708
You seem very sure about that.

423
00:24:50,758 --> 00:24:53,348
All he talked about
was the future, man.

424
00:24:53,398 --> 00:24:56,348
~ His head bulged with
his plans for the future.
~ What sort of plans?

425
00:24:56,398 --> 00:24:58,748
This place. Newcastle!

426
00:24:58,798 --> 00:25:01,988
~ Ah, right.
~ He wanted to rip it down and rebuild it.

427
00:25:02,038 --> 00:25:04,708
Like Richard Grainger and T Dan.

428
00:25:04,758 --> 00:25:07,788
His heroes.

429
00:25:07,838 --> 00:25:09,068
Promise us one thing.

430
00:25:09,118 --> 00:25:13,438
You'll not let anybody con you into
thinking Scott took his own life.

431
00:25:15,958 --> 00:25:18,908
What was your last sight
of him on that night?

432
00:25:18,958 --> 00:25:21,588
Staggering away from the
restaurant 2:00 in the morning,

433
00:25:21,638 --> 00:25:24,308
blood on his head from
hitting the wall,

434
00:25:24,358 --> 00:25:27,548
cursing us, cursing the world,

435
00:25:27,598 --> 00:25:30,748
cursing God, cursing the sky,

436
00:25:30,798 --> 00:25:32,588
singing at the top of his voice.

437
00:25:32,638 --> 00:25:33,948
Which direction?

438
00:25:33,998 --> 00:25:35,708
Towards the High Level.

439
00:25:35,758 --> 00:25:38,388
Scott had no money
on him when he died.

440
00:25:38,438 --> 00:25:40,778
Scottie never had any money.

441
00:25:40,878 --> 00:25:43,108
Now, I know you don't
think he's a jumper,

442
00:25:43,158 --> 00:25:47,268
but could he have been so drunk
that he got himself into a mess

443
00:25:47,318 --> 00:25:49,658
and fell off the High Level?

444
00:25:53,317 --> 00:25:55,107
What was he singing?

445
00:25:55,157 --> 00:25:56,427
Um...

446
00:25:58,397 --> 00:26:00,867
Oh, it was that thing, er...

447
00:26:00,917 --> 00:26:02,557
Five Bridges.

448
00:26:10,397 --> 00:26:11,797
Gemma?

449
00:26:13,677 --> 00:26:15,077
Gemma!

450
00:26:22,197 --> 00:26:23,597
Gemma?!

451
00:26:39,277 --> 00:26:41,467
♪ Five bridges cross the Tyne

452
00:26:41,517 --> 00:26:43,627

~ Are you all right, John?
~ Yeah. Never better.

462
00:27:19,436 --> 00:27:22,266
Is this all part of the celebrations?

463
00:27:22,316 --> 00:27:24,786
Yeah. Me in the middle,
Scott on the left.

464
00:27:24,836 --> 00:27:26,376
We were 10.

465
00:27:28,476 --> 00:27:31,426
Michael Woodruff was desolate
about his friend's death.

466
00:27:31,476 --> 00:27:34,516
I'm sure it's the same
for you. I'm very sorry.

467
00:27:36,756 --> 00:27:39,356
I don't think I'll ever really...

468
00:27:41,276 --> 00:27:43,616
.. get to grips with it all.

469
00:27:46,236 --> 00:27:50,136
Was this one of the things
that was being smashed, then?

470
00:27:52,156 --> 00:27:55,386
~ Oh! Where did this take place?
~ Just where you're standing.

471
00:27:55,436 --> 00:27:58,746
Oh. You've cleaned
up a bit, have you?

472
00:27:58,796 --> 00:28:01,466
~ Aye.
~ Why else do you pay cleaners?

473
00:28:07,436 --> 00:28:09,946
Not opening tonight, then?

474
00:28:09,996 --> 00:28:11,876
Mark of respect.

475
00:28:13,876 --> 00:28:16,186
Here's your list.

476
00:28:16,236 --> 00:28:18,976
~ Much good may it do you.
~ Thank you.

477
00:28:19,636 --> 00:28:21,546
Will the names of the
cleaners be on here?

478
00:28:21,596 --> 00:28:24,426
No, but I'll provide them separately
for you if you really want them.

479
00:28:24,476 --> 00:28:26,076
Yes, please.

480
00:28:28,076 --> 00:28:30,505
Have you always been in
the restaurant business?

481
00:28:30,555 --> 00:28:32,105
No. I started out as a labourer,

482
00:28:32,155 --> 00:28:34,185
installing pipe for
the oil refineries.

483
00:28:34,235 --> 00:28:38,425
Anita thought we could do it cheaper
ourselves, so I borrowed some money.

484
00:28:38,475 --> 00:28:40,305
Set up my own company.

485
00:28:40,355 --> 00:28:41,705
Are you an engineer, then?

486
00:28:41,755 --> 00:28:44,585
Hm! Nah. I'm just lucky.

487
00:28:44,635 --> 00:28:48,105
Lucky that you've got a wife
that's so encouraging.

488
00:28:48,155 --> 00:28:49,905
If you want to say pushy, say it.

489
00:28:49,955 --> 00:28:52,895
Opening this place
was my idea, as well.

490
00:28:54,315 --> 00:28:56,985
How do you do it so
cheaply? The pipes.

491
00:28:57,035 --> 00:28:59,115
Non-union labour.

492
00:29:00,195 --> 00:29:01,865
Yankee oil companies loved it.

493
00:29:01,915 --> 00:29:05,815
What did your friend Michael
Woodruff think about that?

494
00:29:06,675 --> 00:29:09,185
That's the wonderful thing
about lifelong friendships.

495
00:29:09,235 --> 00:29:12,585
You don't have to like everything
about someone you really love.

496
00:29:12,635 --> 00:29:15,665
Like it didn't matter
that Scott was violent?

497
00:29:15,715 --> 00:29:18,455
~ Who told you that?
~ Michael Woodruff.

498
00:29:19,915 --> 00:29:21,745
Michael should shut
his face now and then.

499
00:29:21,795 --> 00:29:24,065
Michael doesn't think it was suicide.

500
00:29:24,115 --> 00:29:25,915
Yeah, he rang me.

501
00:29:27,315 --> 00:29:29,225
Why are you playing games with us?

502
00:29:29,275 --> 00:29:31,825
You tell me murder, but you
ask Michael about suicide.

503
00:29:31,875 --> 00:29:35,545
Well, why don't you tell me
why you assume it was suicide?

504
00:29:35,595 --> 00:29:37,305
It's what Jo thinks.

505
00:29:37,355 --> 00:29:40,505
So Scott Parker's wife thinks
that he's committed suicide,

506
00:29:40,555 --> 00:29:42,985
but she doesn't call the
police for almost two days.

507
00:29:43,035 --> 00:29:44,985
Don't you think that's
just a little bit odd?

508
00:29:45,035 --> 00:29:47,105
~ Well, she is a bit odd, let's face it.
~ Nita.

509
00:29:47,155 --> 00:29:49,424
~ Have you seen the way they live?
~ Nita, that's not...!

510
00:29:49,474 --> 00:29:52,224
I think the woman's borderline
insane. I've always thought it.

511
00:29:52,274 --> 00:29:56,474
~ You're not the best of friends, then?
~ God, no. She hates me.

512
00:29:58,714 --> 00:30:00,224
Why?

513
00:30:00,274 --> 00:30:02,064
Because I've got what she wants.

514
00:30:02,114 --> 00:30:05,064
And everything I got, I got through
hard work and being savvy.

515
00:30:05,114 --> 00:30:07,824
And everything she got, she
got on the never-never.

516
00:30:07,874 --> 00:30:10,614
And where did that get Scott Parker?

517
00:30:11,314 --> 00:30:13,714
At the foot of the High Level.

518
00:30:14,674 --> 00:30:16,464
Sorry, gents, I think
you're dead wrong.

519
00:30:16,514 --> 00:30:17,904
I think he had a million reasons

520
00:30:17,954 --> 00:30:20,954
to chuck himself off
a bridge. A million.

521
00:30:22,394 --> 00:30:24,504
And that's all you're
going to get out of me.

522
00:30:24,554 --> 00:30:26,344
Ask Jo Parker if you want the rest.

523
00:30:26,394 --> 00:30:28,744
~ Are you withholding information?
~ Yeah.

524
00:30:28,794 --> 00:30:33,154
Arrest me, you jumped-up,
smarmy-faced little shitehawk!

525
00:30:34,354 --> 00:30:35,864
Are you finished?

526
00:30:35,914 --> 00:30:37,514
No.

527
00:30:39,074 --> 00:30:41,064
So, what was your last
sight of Scott Parker?

528
00:30:41,114 --> 00:30:42,584
Weaving his way down the road,

529
00:30:42,634 --> 00:30:45,424
with blood down his shirt where
his head had hit the bar,

530
00:30:45,474 --> 00:30:48,104
or a chair smashed over his head.

531
00:30:48,154 --> 00:30:50,144
Cursing. Singing.

532
00:30:50,194 --> 00:30:53,744
Those were pretty much the exact same
words that Michael Woodruff used,

533
00:30:53,794 --> 00:30:56,504
except you're saying that Michael
started smashing chairs,

534
00:30:56,554 --> 00:30:58,024
where he was saying it was Scott.

535
00:30:58,074 --> 00:31:01,574
~ Well, maybe...
~ Nita, you weren't there, remember?!

536
00:31:02,194 --> 00:31:05,194
Does it matter who smashed
the first chair?

537
00:31:06,234 --> 00:31:08,303
Yeah, I think it does.

538
00:31:09,553 --> 00:31:11,383
Oh, well, I'm sorry.
I can't remember!

539
00:31:11,433 --> 00:31:13,833
We were all completely pissed!

540
00:31:14,193 --> 00:31:17,623
All right. One more question.

541
00:31:17,673 --> 00:31:20,953
Does the name Gwendolen Howard
mean anything to you?

542
00:31:22,393 --> 00:31:24,303
No.

543
00:31:24,353 --> 00:31:27,833
Right, just the names and addresses
of the cleaners, please, pet.

544
00:31:34,673 --> 00:31:37,703
You don't have to love
everything about...

545
00:31:37,753 --> 00:31:40,703
~ No.
~ You don't...
~ No, no.
~ .. about someone you like.

546
00:31:40,753 --> 00:31:42,063
No. That's arse about face.

547
00:31:42,113 --> 00:31:44,983
You don't have to like everything
about someone you love.

548
00:31:45,033 --> 00:31:48,583
~ Someone you love.
~ It's almost a definition
of their friendship.

549
00:31:48,633 --> 00:31:51,303
Something strong that
they had between them

550
00:31:51,353 --> 00:31:53,583
all their lives growing up together.

551
00:31:53,633 --> 00:31:56,223
Anita's a bit of a mare, isn't she?

552
00:31:56,273 --> 00:31:59,373
Took a shitehawk to point
it out, didn't it?

553
00:31:59,913 --> 00:32:02,433
To shitehawks everywhere!

554
00:32:07,673 --> 00:32:08,823
To friendship.

555
00:32:08,873 --> 00:32:10,543
To friendship.

556
00:32:10,593 --> 00:32:12,263
God bless you.

557
00:32:12,953 --> 00:32:15,943
You can't bring yourself to tell
me what's wrong with you, can you?

558
00:32:15,993 --> 00:32:17,533
Here we go.

559
00:32:19,233 --> 00:32:22,933
Why have you not shared it
with me, if we're friends?

560
00:32:24,273 --> 00:32:26,982
Your hands are shaking, you keep
dropping things on the floor.

561
00:32:27,032 --> 00:32:28,832
Oh, leave it out.

562
00:32:29,832 --> 00:32:31,942
All right.

563
00:32:31,992 --> 00:32:36,382
John, this is the way I deal
with things, OK? Besides, look.

564
00:32:36,432 --> 00:32:37,902
It's gone?

565
00:32:37,952 --> 00:32:40,832
Well, yeah, gone. Maybe for good.

566
00:32:43,712 --> 00:32:45,312
~ Good.
~ Yeah.

567
00:32:51,432 --> 00:32:54,372
~ I bet you can't do this.
~ Oh, here we go.

568
00:33:07,792 --> 00:33:09,262
Very good.

569
00:33:14,552 --> 00:33:16,902
Oh, yes!

570
00:33:16,952 --> 00:33:18,622
I am the king!

571
00:33:27,072 --> 00:33:29,822
~ Slow! Slow!
~ I, um...

572
00:33:29,872 --> 00:33:32,472
I've just come to say night-night.

573
00:33:32,992 --> 00:33:37,492
~ I'll, er... pop in on Mrs Parker
tomorrow, like you said.
~ Yeah.

574
00:33:40,592 --> 00:33:43,632
~ You do know you've, er... got...?
~ Yeah.
~ Yeah.

575
00:33:49,111 --> 00:33:52,111
I don't think she has
any respect for me.

576
00:34:06,191 --> 00:34:09,391
Your house was burgled
last month, Mrs Parker?

577
00:34:11,271 --> 00:34:13,661
Broke in through the back.

578
00:34:13,711 --> 00:34:17,981
And they took mostly jewellery
and the television?

579
00:34:18,031 --> 00:34:20,221
And a canteen of cutlery.

580
00:34:20,271 --> 00:34:21,631
Silver.

581
00:34:25,231 --> 00:34:27,501
~ Did you make a claim?
~ Aye.

582
00:34:29,831 --> 00:34:31,821
The loss adjustor came last week.

583
00:34:31,871 --> 00:34:34,981
So we should get some money back.

584
00:34:35,031 --> 00:34:37,671
Not we, I.

585
00:34:39,231 --> 00:34:41,831
And your car was stolen, as well.

586
00:34:44,231 --> 00:34:47,231
~ Are you on your own here, Mrs Parker?
~ Yeah.

587
00:34:48,511 --> 00:34:51,501
Do you work?

588
00:34:51,551 --> 00:34:54,501
No, not any more. I used to, though.

589
00:34:54,551 --> 00:34:57,181
No children?

590
00:34:57,231 --> 00:34:59,981
No. I had a lot of
miscarriages in my 20s.

591
00:35:00,031 --> 00:35:01,821
At the finish, I had a hysterectomy.

592
00:35:01,871 --> 00:35:03,541
Oh, I'm sorry.

593
00:35:06,510 --> 00:35:08,710
So, what will you do now?

594
00:35:11,190 --> 00:35:12,980
I'm sorry to have to ask you this,

595
00:35:13,030 --> 00:35:16,420
was Scott worried about
anything? Money?

596
00:35:16,470 --> 00:35:19,510
The thing with Scott is
that he was so positive.

597
00:35:22,110 --> 00:35:24,450
Keep your eyes on the prize.

598
00:35:26,830 --> 00:35:28,620
And what was the prize?

599
00:35:28,670 --> 00:35:31,210
Change. Modernisation. Progress.

600
00:35:33,270 --> 00:35:35,660
Is there anybody you can
stay with for a while?

601
00:35:35,710 --> 00:35:37,580
Anita.

602
00:35:37,630 --> 00:35:40,570
Peter and Anita. I'll
give them a bell.

603
00:35:41,390 --> 00:35:42,980
When my phone's back on.

604
00:35:43,030 --> 00:35:47,330
~ I could give them a call
for you, if you like.
~ I can manage.

605
00:35:47,870 --> 00:35:50,340
I've got to go out in a minute.

606
00:35:50,870 --> 00:35:52,310
Right.

607
00:36:09,950 --> 00:36:11,980
Have you got business here, gents?

608
00:36:12,030 --> 00:36:14,300
We are waiting for
Mrs Parker to leave.

609
00:36:14,350 --> 00:36:16,380
We have an arrangement
with her until she goes.

610
00:36:16,430 --> 00:36:18,980
Right. And who are you, please?

611
00:36:19,030 --> 00:36:20,630
Sorry.

612
00:36:25,789 --> 00:36:27,499
There we are.

613
00:36:27,549 --> 00:36:30,649
Estate agent. What, she's
selling the house?

614
00:36:31,989 --> 00:36:35,109
Um... the mortgage was
foreclosed a month ago.

615
00:36:36,469 --> 00:36:37,939
Er... repossession.

616
00:36:37,989 --> 00:36:40,699
Mrs Parker's allowed to
live here until it's sold,

617
00:36:40,749 --> 00:36:42,459
but she doesn't own it any more.

618
00:36:42,509 --> 00:36:45,109
She's, um... a little bit fragile.

619
00:36:46,109 --> 00:36:49,749
We don't show buyers around
when she's in, at her request.

620
00:36:51,349 --> 00:36:52,949
She goes out.

621
00:37:03,949 --> 00:37:06,259
So, they were completely
broke, weren't they?

622
00:37:06,309 --> 00:37:07,699
The burglary, the car theft?

623
00:37:07,749 --> 00:37:10,619
Frauds, I think, sir. I think they
got desperate to keep afloat.

624
00:37:10,669 --> 00:37:13,669
~ Well, we know where the jewellery went.
~ Mm.

625
00:37:13,909 --> 00:37:15,819
Maybe the mare was right.

626
00:37:15,869 --> 00:37:18,659
A million reasons for him to
chuck himself off a bridge.

627
00:37:18,709 --> 00:37:21,179
So, where did all the money go?

628
00:37:25,029 --> 00:37:26,219
Where is this place?

629
00:37:26,269 --> 00:37:28,139
It's up near the university.

630
00:37:28,189 --> 00:37:29,659
City Vision Developments.

631
00:37:29,709 --> 00:37:32,179
Maybe he put all of his
money into his business.

632
00:37:32,229 --> 00:37:35,419
Last company accounts
showed 25 employees.

633
00:37:35,469 --> 00:37:37,899
I've told Jo to meet us there.

634
00:37:37,949 --> 00:37:41,099
Can I just say, I've got a lot
of respect for the both of you,

635
00:37:41,149 --> 00:37:43,498
if you don't mind us saying.

636
00:37:43,548 --> 00:37:46,828
I mean, I had no idea that you
were in a circus act together.

637
00:38:11,908 --> 00:38:14,258
Is this supposed to
be Newcastle, this?

638
00:38:14,308 --> 00:38:16,378
It's not going to happen, is it?

639
00:38:16,428 --> 00:38:18,738
Scott always said it would.

640
00:38:18,788 --> 00:38:22,698
He wanted to buy up all the
warehouses along the Quayside

641
00:38:22,748 --> 00:38:26,648
as they fell into disuse when
the river trade fell off.

642
00:38:27,468 --> 00:38:30,138
He could always see ahead, Scottie.

643
00:38:30,988 --> 00:38:33,498
Did he buy those warehouses?

644
00:38:33,548 --> 00:38:35,888
No. He couldn't afford them.

645
00:38:36,828 --> 00:38:40,378
What he did buy was land
near the Town Moor.

646
00:38:40,428 --> 00:38:43,468
That was his Phase One redevelopment.

647
00:38:44,908 --> 00:38:48,108
He borrowed from banks
and investors to do it.

648
00:38:48,508 --> 00:38:50,978
But the council rejected his plans.

649
00:38:51,028 --> 00:38:53,178
Would they not give him
planning permission?

650
00:38:53,228 --> 00:38:54,978
Nobody would help him.

651
00:38:55,028 --> 00:38:56,338
Banks wanted their money back.

652
00:38:56,388 --> 00:38:58,738
~ And the investors?
~ Them, as well.

653
00:38:58,788 --> 00:39:01,858
So, what was the argument
against redevelopment?

654
00:39:01,908 --> 00:39:04,297
I mean, I'd like to see
this sort of thing happen.

655
00:39:04,347 --> 00:39:05,537
Who wouldn't?

656
00:39:05,587 --> 00:39:08,657
Plenty of people. Stick-in-the-muds.

657
00:39:08,707 --> 00:39:12,057
People who think development
should be not for profit.

658
00:39:12,107 --> 00:39:14,457
Owned by the community.

659
00:39:14,507 --> 00:39:16,537
Unions, for instance.

660
00:39:16,587 --> 00:39:18,417
Michael Woodruff's union?

661
00:39:18,467 --> 00:39:21,007
Michael's voice was the loudest.

662
00:39:30,787 --> 00:39:32,537
Does he know you're in his chair?

663
00:39:32,587 --> 00:39:36,267
He said I could. I was looking
for somewhere quiet.

664
00:39:37,507 --> 00:39:39,417
I thought you were out.

665
00:39:39,467 --> 00:39:41,137
Teacher's pet.

666
00:39:44,067 --> 00:39:45,697
What is it you're doing, anyway?

667
00:39:45,747 --> 00:39:49,057
Um... swotting on this exam.

668
00:39:49,107 --> 00:39:51,577
~ Or trying to.
~ Sergeant's exam?

669
00:39:52,507 --> 00:39:53,777
Yep.

670
00:39:53,827 --> 00:39:58,187
Ah! What'll you do if you don't pass?

671
00:40:00,867 --> 00:40:02,537
Fail.

672
00:40:02,587 --> 00:40:04,857
What'll you do if you fail?

673
00:40:06,987 --> 00:40:08,857
What'll you do if you fail, Rachel?

674
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:12,307
Well, I'll do it again. Do you mind?

675
00:40:14,787 --> 00:40:16,147
Sorry.

676
00:40:21,506 --> 00:40:24,056
Ahem! Gwendolen Howard.

677
00:40:24,106 --> 00:40:26,376
Gwendolen Howard.

678
00:40:26,426 --> 00:40:29,896
Did you ask Jo Parker if
she knew a Gwendolen Howard?

679
00:40:29,946 --> 00:40:32,016
~ No.
~ Why not?

680
00:40:32,066 --> 00:40:34,816
Because maybe I thought she
had enough on her plate

681
00:40:34,866 --> 00:40:36,776
without me putting
the idea in her head

682
00:40:36,826 --> 00:40:39,536
that her dead husband was
shagging summat on the side.

683
00:40:39,586 --> 00:40:41,656
Right, OK, but Confucius said that

684
00:40:41,706 --> 00:40:44,946
we serve the dead,
right, not the living.

685
00:40:46,466 --> 00:40:48,136
I'll ring her.

686
00:40:51,066 --> 00:40:53,266
She doesn't have a phone.

687
00:40:55,386 --> 00:40:58,736
Inspector, Sir, please will you
not do this? It's not funny.

688
00:40:58,786 --> 00:41:01,456
~ I'm really stressing over this exam.
~ All right, all right.

689
00:41:01,506 --> 00:41:04,246
Yes, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Good luck.

690
00:41:05,306 --> 00:41:06,776
I mean it.

691
00:41:07,506 --> 00:41:08,976
Thank you.

692
00:41:12,866 --> 00:41:14,136
Ahem!

693
00:41:18,586 --> 00:41:20,536
Gwendolen Howard.

694
00:41:20,586 --> 00:41:23,586
Hey, that's a slash!
It's Gwendolen/Howard.

695
00:41:25,546 --> 00:41:26,816
Rachel?

696
00:41:26,866 --> 00:41:28,616
Rachel!

697
00:41:28,666 --> 00:41:31,336
~ Right...
~ Pass us the A to Z, man, will you?

698
00:41:31,386 --> 00:41:34,106
~ A to Z, quick! Come on!
~ All right!

699
00:41:36,546 --> 00:41:40,625
Right. Gwendolen/Howard.

700
00:41:42,345 --> 00:41:44,945
~ I reckon it's a place.
~ It's not.

701
00:41:45,585 --> 00:41:47,455
Do you want a bet? Ten bob.

702
00:41:47,505 --> 00:41:50,825
~ You're on.
~ Gwendolen Road. Page 54, 1E.

703
00:41:54,705 --> 00:41:57,445
Road crosses Howard Street, Cowgate.

704
00:41:59,105 --> 00:42:01,215
Eh? Look at that!

705
00:42:01,265 --> 00:42:04,455
Eh, local knowledge,
you can't beat it, eh?

706
00:42:04,505 --> 00:42:06,445
You owe me ten bob.

707
00:42:07,345 --> 00:42:08,535
That's me dinner tonight.

708
00:42:08,585 --> 00:42:11,685
Shouldn't bet what you
can't afford to lose.

709
00:42:12,065 --> 00:42:15,065
Gwendolen and Howard,
5:00 Wednesdays.

710
00:42:18,225 --> 00:42:20,015
Why not?

711
00:42:20,065 --> 00:42:21,625
Can I come?

712
00:42:24,305 --> 00:42:27,245
No. You've got your
exams to sweat over.

713
00:42:33,465 --> 00:42:36,205
Go on, son! Get yourself aboard here!

714
00:42:38,185 --> 00:42:39,545
Right.

715
00:42:42,545 --> 00:42:44,415
You, Percy Street!

716
00:42:49,865 --> 00:42:52,865
Howay, son, up for a
bit of graft, are you?

717
00:42:53,825 --> 00:42:55,505
Come on.

718
00:42:58,185 --> 00:43:01,384
All right. Come on! Come on!

719
00:43:06,624 --> 00:43:08,564
Right, wagons roll!

720
00:43:16,184 --> 00:43:17,974
Lovely! Good man.

721
00:43:18,024 --> 00:43:22,124
The lads are doing all right
here. I'll see you later, son.

722
00:43:23,984 --> 00:43:26,454
Rat! Rat!

723
00:43:29,304 --> 00:43:31,244
Go on, stamp on it!

724
00:43:32,624 --> 00:43:35,224
I'm not paying you to catch rats!

725
00:43:35,824 --> 00:43:38,494
Let them strike as long as
they want, eh, bonny lad?

726
00:43:38,544 --> 00:43:41,654
That Michael Woodruff, they call
him the friend of the rats.

727
00:43:41,704 --> 00:43:43,534
Good for business, I call him!

728
00:43:43,584 --> 00:43:46,414
~ Ever come across Michael Woodruff?
~ Just the once.

729
00:43:46,464 --> 00:43:48,414
Old man, what are you doing?!

730
00:43:48,464 --> 00:43:50,414
We're not taking out washers, man!

731
00:43:50,464 --> 00:43:52,654
Just the stuff that stinks!

732
00:43:52,704 --> 00:43:55,014
Howay then, come on! Clear up here!

733
00:43:55,064 --> 00:43:58,964
You can all start drinking
your pay, you lazy bastards!

734
00:44:02,224 --> 00:44:04,564
There are issues of privacy.

735
00:44:05,144 --> 00:44:06,454
I can get a court order.

736
00:44:06,504 --> 00:44:09,104
Yes, I thought you might say that.

737
00:44:09,264 --> 00:44:10,854
Both accounts, I take it?

738
00:44:10,904 --> 00:44:13,174
~ Mrs Parker's first.
~ Mm-hm.

739
00:44:15,024 --> 00:44:18,224
Basket case. Like lending
money to Bangladesh.

740
00:44:19,423 --> 00:44:23,493
Debt, debts, unauthorised withdrawals,

741
00:44:23,543 --> 00:44:26,453
bouncing cheques, missed deadlines.

742
00:44:26,503 --> 00:44:28,093
How much?

743
00:44:28,143 --> 00:44:30,773
At the last count, as of today,

744
00:44:30,823 --> 00:44:34,413
ã4,648, 10 shillings and four pence.

745
00:44:34,463 --> 00:44:37,933
You've loaned all that
to a woman without a job?

746
00:44:37,983 --> 00:44:40,053
Her husband is her guarantor.

747
00:44:40,103 --> 00:44:41,853
Not any more, he's not.

748
00:44:41,903 --> 00:44:43,643
No, but he was.

749
00:44:44,903 --> 00:44:47,453
I thought Scott was a good bet.

750
00:44:47,503 --> 00:44:50,453
Until the Planning Department
holed him below the waterline.

751
00:44:50,503 --> 00:44:53,063
Mm. What did she spend it on?

752
00:44:54,823 --> 00:44:56,423
Oh, come on.

753
00:44:57,783 --> 00:44:59,893
Bookmakers.

754
00:44:59,943 --> 00:45:02,773
Jo would bet on two drops of
water going down a window.

755
00:45:02,823 --> 00:45:05,653
Do you think your bank was prudent
using its customers' savings

756
00:45:05,703 --> 00:45:08,533
to finance reckless gambling?

757
00:45:08,583 --> 00:45:11,013
Oddly enough, exactly what
Regional Head Office asked.

758
00:45:11,063 --> 00:45:12,333
Oh.

759
00:45:12,383 --> 00:45:15,773
Next time you see me, I'll be flying through
the air with me trousers on fire.

760
00:45:17,583 --> 00:45:21,213
Scott must have had other
investors. Who were they?

761
00:45:21,263 --> 00:45:22,533
Right.

762
00:45:25,263 --> 00:45:26,733
Thank you.

763
00:45:47,662 --> 00:45:49,092
What, man?

764
00:45:49,142 --> 00:45:51,372
~ It's for you!
~ Eh?

765
00:45:51,422 --> 00:45:53,822
It's for you!

766
00:45:55,062 --> 00:45:56,132
Hello?

767
00:45:56,182 --> 00:45:58,172
'Rachel.'

768
00:45:58,222 --> 00:45:59,612
Sorry, Mr Gently.

769
00:45:59,662 --> 00:46:01,732
Go and see Jo Parker again.

770
00:46:01,782 --> 00:46:04,452
'Investors in City Vision
lost a lot of money.'

771
00:46:04,502 --> 00:46:05,772
Right.

772
00:46:14,302 --> 00:46:16,182
Scotch, please.

773
00:46:20,462 --> 00:46:23,492
I went to see Scott's bank manager.

774
00:46:23,542 --> 00:46:25,852
~ Did you?
~ Yeah.

775
00:46:25,902 --> 00:46:30,492
How did it feel to lose so
much money because of Scott?

776
00:46:30,542 --> 00:46:32,612
Shit, actually.

777
00:46:32,662 --> 00:46:35,012
No, no, no, no. On the house, Neil.

778
00:46:35,062 --> 00:46:36,292
Oh, thank you.

779
00:46:36,342 --> 00:46:39,612
Yeah. Must be hard to come to
terms with something like that.

780
00:46:39,662 --> 00:46:42,092
No. It's the risk you take.

781
00:46:42,142 --> 00:46:44,052
Investing's a bet.

782
00:46:44,102 --> 00:46:46,852
You don't bet what you
can't afford to lose.

783
00:46:46,902 --> 00:46:48,892
Did Scott Parker take that advice?

784
00:46:48,942 --> 00:46:50,612
No. Scott didn't.

785
00:46:50,662 --> 00:46:53,572
No. Scott lost everything
he had and more, didn't he?

786
00:46:53,622 --> 00:46:57,012
His ship went down with all hands.

787
00:46:57,062 --> 00:47:01,411
Are you still trying to
call it murder, Mr Gently?

788
00:47:01,461 --> 00:47:05,411
~ His head was full of wooden splinters.
~ So's my face.

789
00:47:05,461 --> 00:47:07,611
Look. I've admitted
to you what happened.

790
00:47:07,661 --> 00:47:09,411
Michael's admitted what happened.

791
00:47:09,461 --> 00:47:13,331
Scottie walked out
of that door alive.

792
00:47:13,381 --> 00:47:16,611
Do you know about Jo
Parker's gambling habit?

793
00:47:16,661 --> 00:47:18,211
Oh, yes.

794
00:47:18,261 --> 00:47:20,371
How?

795
00:47:20,421 --> 00:47:23,251
Five hundredth time Scottie
blagged us for a loan,

796
00:47:23,301 --> 00:47:25,451
I made him tell us where
all the money was going.

797
00:47:25,501 --> 00:47:30,251
Did you tell Anita that you were
paying Jo's gambling debts?

798
00:47:30,301 --> 00:47:33,171
I mean, Anita and Jo
don't get on, I know -

799
00:47:33,221 --> 00:47:35,291
~ but what about Anita and Scott?
~ What about them?

800
00:47:35,341 --> 00:47:36,531
Did they like each other?

801
00:47:36,581 --> 00:47:39,131
Everybody liked Scottie. Everybody.

802
00:47:39,181 --> 00:47:41,461
Did Scott like your wife?

803
00:47:42,661 --> 00:47:44,621
What's not to like?

804
00:47:55,821 --> 00:47:59,221
How long ago did the ship
go down with all hands?

805
00:48:01,021 --> 00:48:03,971
~ Four months.
~ What caused it?

806
00:48:04,021 --> 00:48:06,091
No planning permission.

807
00:48:07,141 --> 00:48:11,491
But you and Scott still owned the
land. Surely it had some value?

808
00:48:11,541 --> 00:48:14,171
Not while there was no
planning permission.

809
00:48:14,221 --> 00:48:19,170
And it was hard seeing Scottie
get that decision reversed.

810
00:48:19,220 --> 00:48:21,730
He went about things
all the wrong way.

811
00:48:21,780 --> 00:48:23,170
The committee saw through him.

812
00:48:23,220 --> 00:48:26,210
He couldn't even keep up
the rent on his offices.

813
00:48:26,260 --> 00:48:28,770
Too busy keeping up
with Jo's bad debts.

814
00:48:28,820 --> 00:48:31,050
Were you angry with him about that?

815
00:48:31,100 --> 00:48:33,930
Nah. It was Scottie.
That's what he was like.

816
00:48:33,980 --> 00:48:37,770
No point being angry
with him. Thanks.

817
00:48:37,820 --> 00:48:40,290
He spent a fortune on these
unnecessary drawings

818
00:48:40,340 --> 00:48:45,250
and models made by these fancy
architects from Sweden.

819
00:48:45,300 --> 00:48:48,930
He was even talking about chucking
another bridge over the Tyne,

820
00:48:48,980 --> 00:48:51,810
as if there aren't enough
of those already!

821
00:48:51,860 --> 00:48:56,050
This all had to be paid for
and I got sick of forking out,

822
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:59,610
so he borrowed on the property.

823
00:48:59,660 --> 00:49:04,930
He used property that was partly owned
by you as collateral for his own debts?

824
00:49:04,980 --> 00:49:06,330
As well as his wife's?

825
00:49:06,380 --> 00:49:08,610
~ Yes.
~ Did you give permission for this?

826
00:49:08,660 --> 00:49:11,220
~ No.
~ Did your wife know?

827
00:49:16,980 --> 00:49:19,890
There you go, bonny lad. Don't
say I never gave you nowt.

828
00:49:19,940 --> 00:49:22,940
~ Mine's a pint.
~ Cheers, gaffer.
~ Good man.

829
00:49:24,700 --> 00:49:26,170
All right.

830
00:49:29,860 --> 00:49:31,170
Where did you dump it?

831
00:49:31,220 --> 00:49:34,530
On the tip - where else?

832
00:49:34,580 --> 00:49:37,769
I'll wait on, though, till
the pickets have gone home.

833
00:49:37,819 --> 00:49:39,169
After dark?

834
00:49:39,219 --> 00:49:43,089
Too bloody right. How'd you
find out about us, anyway?

835
00:49:43,139 --> 00:49:48,689
A friend of mine has done
it before. Scottie? Scott?

836
00:49:48,739 --> 00:49:51,889
Might use a different name for
the taxman. Richard Grainger?

837
00:49:51,939 --> 00:49:55,809
Oh, Richard. Aye, canny enough
lad, like. Bit talkative.

838
00:49:55,859 --> 00:49:57,969
Always banging on about bridges.

839
00:49:58,019 --> 00:50:01,609
His hands were soft. I knew
he needed the money, you know.

840
00:50:01,659 --> 00:50:04,329
Mind, he could fight if he had to.

841
00:50:04,379 --> 00:50:07,289
Get in. Cheers, lad.

842
00:50:07,339 --> 00:50:09,209
~ That surprised us.
~ What do you mean?

843
00:50:09,259 --> 00:50:12,169
~ You know you asked us
about Michael Woodruff?
~ Aye.

844
00:50:12,219 --> 00:50:16,969
The one time I come across Michael
Woodruff - hey, what a bastard he is!

845
00:50:18,979 --> 00:50:20,899
Hey up, lads.

846
00:50:22,499 --> 00:50:24,049
Get out of here, you bloody scabs.

847
00:50:24,099 --> 00:50:26,449
Aye, man. We've got a
legitimate day's work here.

848
00:50:26,499 --> 00:50:29,489
Not around here, you've not.

849
00:50:29,539 --> 00:50:33,169
All right, pack it in. Come on now.

850
00:50:33,219 --> 00:50:35,889
Right, move it. We're gonna go now.

851
00:50:40,259 --> 00:50:42,539
Scottie!

852
00:50:45,219 --> 00:50:49,889
All right, ladies. Nowt to see here.

853
00:50:49,939 --> 00:50:51,209
Argh!

854
00:51:02,938 --> 00:51:05,648
Argh! Argh!

855
00:51:05,698 --> 00:51:07,438
Just stay down.

856
00:51:12,578 --> 00:51:16,128
Scottie! What are you doing this for?

857
00:51:16,178 --> 00:51:18,928
I've got nothing. I'm
on my knees, Michael.

858
00:51:18,978 --> 00:51:22,848
I am on my knees! I've got nothing,
man! I've got nothing!

859
00:51:25,418 --> 00:51:27,098
I am nothing.

860
00:51:45,698 --> 00:51:47,098
Come on.

861
00:51:48,498 --> 00:51:50,608
Aye, he could fight all right.

862
00:51:50,658 --> 00:51:54,448
Never seen anybody else fight Michael
Woodruff to a standstill.

863
00:51:54,498 --> 00:51:56,808
He was obsessed with
bridges, you know.

864
00:51:56,858 --> 00:52:00,048
He used to say, "they're
not an invitation to leave,

865
00:52:00,098 --> 00:52:04,888
"they're a door opening. A
new bridge is a new way in."

866
00:52:04,938 --> 00:52:09,568
He loved the High Level
for its dark grandeur.

867
00:52:09,618 --> 00:52:14,127
But he adored the Tyne Bridge
for what it said about change.

868
00:52:14,177 --> 00:52:17,607
He used to point up, where
it comes into Newcastle.

869
00:52:17,657 --> 00:52:20,887
"Looker, man, Jo - were
they afraid of change?

870
00:52:20,937 --> 00:52:23,607
"Were they afraid to take a risk?

871
00:52:23,657 --> 00:52:27,327
"They smashed through the most
beautiful Georgian houses

872
00:52:27,377 --> 00:52:32,647
"to inject the A1 straight
into the heart of the city!"

873
00:52:32,697 --> 00:52:34,807
That's the Scott I married.

874
00:52:34,857 --> 00:52:37,777
And are you the Jo he married?

875
00:52:40,657 --> 00:52:42,397
What time is it?

876
00:52:44,497 --> 00:52:46,087
It's quarter past six.

877
00:52:46,137 --> 00:52:49,127
You have to go. I've got
some people coming round.

878
00:52:49,177 --> 00:52:52,647
All right. OK. Well. Well, maybe
I'll pop in on you tomorrow, eh?

879
00:52:52,697 --> 00:52:55,037
Yeah. I'll see you tomorrow.

880
00:52:55,337 --> 00:52:56,607
Right.

881
00:53:30,577 --> 00:53:31,927
Where you going, pet?

882
00:53:31,977 --> 00:53:34,086
I'm going to see Mrs
Parker. Any objections?

883
00:53:34,136 --> 00:53:37,296
She's a bit busy at the minute.
Come back in half an hour.

884
00:53:40,936 --> 00:53:44,926
What's going on here?
Who are you, like?

885
00:53:44,976 --> 00:53:49,446
Look, no-one's forcing
her to do this.

886
00:53:49,496 --> 00:53:51,606
There's worse ways to pay
off your debt, you know.

887
00:53:51,656 --> 00:53:53,646
Forcing her to do what?

888
00:53:53,696 --> 00:53:55,806
Nobody asked her to
borrow money off we.

889
00:53:55,856 --> 00:53:57,726
Forcing her to do what?

890
00:53:57,776 --> 00:53:59,326
Rachel.

891
00:53:59,376 --> 00:54:01,926
Jo, are these men harassing you, pet?

892
00:54:01,976 --> 00:54:04,286
No. Have an arrangement.

893
00:54:04,336 --> 00:54:06,646
Now just go away and leave
us alone, will you?

894
00:54:06,696 --> 00:54:09,256
Jo? Jo!

895
00:54:16,216 --> 00:54:17,846
How often does this happen?

896
00:54:17,896 --> 00:54:19,606
Wednesdays.

897
00:54:19,656 --> 00:54:21,606
It's just your friend, or....?

898
00:54:21,656 --> 00:54:23,086
Both we.

899
00:54:23,136 --> 00:54:25,046
And how long will it go on for?

900
00:54:25,096 --> 00:54:29,606
~ Till her slate's clean.
~ Do you know her husband died this week?

901
00:54:29,656 --> 00:54:34,126
Nah, I didn't know that, like.
Seemed like a canny lad.

902
00:54:34,176 --> 00:54:35,926
You knew him?

903
00:54:35,976 --> 00:54:37,766
Yeah, he would come and complain.

904
00:54:37,816 --> 00:54:42,486
~ Ask if we'd wait for the money -
usual sort of stuff you get, you know.
~ He knew?

905
00:54:42,536 --> 00:54:47,686
Hey, pet, you better spend
some time in the real world.

906
00:54:47,736 --> 00:54:50,976
There's a cold wind blowing out here.

907
00:54:54,455 --> 00:54:57,645
Yeah, these were the clowns we saw at
the dog track, sir, do you remember?

908
00:54:57,695 --> 00:55:00,445
Do their alibis stand up
for the night of the murder?

909
00:55:00,495 --> 00:55:03,645
~ Yes.
~ Then we're not interested in them.
~ Ah, sir, come on, man!

910
00:55:03,695 --> 00:55:07,525
It's 1969, not 1869 - why should
a woman have to sell herself

911
00:55:07,575 --> 00:55:09,605
to these pigs just cos she owes them!

912
00:55:09,655 --> 00:55:14,485
Rachel, if she's not being coerced,
what do you think I can do?

913
00:55:14,535 --> 00:55:17,165
What law has been broken, eh?

914
00:55:17,215 --> 00:55:19,965
Meanwhile I've got to catch
her husband's killer.

915
00:55:20,015 --> 00:55:21,365
John!

916
00:55:21,415 --> 00:55:25,215
Let's serve the dead, eh?
To hell with the living.

917
00:55:26,215 --> 00:55:28,485
Find out where they drink.

918
00:55:33,455 --> 00:55:38,445
What do you think gives you the right
to attack men going about their work?

919
00:55:38,495 --> 00:55:42,925
Isn't their work, is
it? It's our work.

920
00:55:42,975 --> 00:55:45,965
They're scabs and I batter
them whenever I can.

921
00:55:46,015 --> 00:55:48,725
It wasn't really an official
strike, though, was it?

922
00:55:48,775 --> 00:55:52,205
It was a wildcat strike.
Are they really scabs?

923
00:55:52,255 --> 00:55:55,805
Sorry, you've brought us in here to discuss
my union's rule book, have you?

924
00:55:55,855 --> 00:55:57,565
Do you hate scabs, Mr Woodruff?

925
00:55:57,615 --> 00:55:59,245
With every breath in me body.

926
00:55:59,295 --> 00:56:01,605
Did you hate Scott Parker, then?

927
00:56:01,655 --> 00:56:04,415
Ah, that's why I'm here.

928
00:56:06,015 --> 00:56:07,965
How did you find out about that?

929
00:56:08,015 --> 00:56:10,055
I'm a detective.

930
00:56:11,854 --> 00:56:15,444
Nah. Nothing could ever
make me hate Scottie.

931
00:56:15,494 --> 00:56:18,764
Well, somebody did. He
was beaten to death.

932
00:56:18,814 --> 00:56:20,884
Any ideas who did it?

933
00:56:20,934 --> 00:56:25,524
I cannot tell you who he walked
into on the High Level,

934
00:56:25,574 --> 00:56:28,484
but I can tell you the
world is turning nasty.

935
00:56:28,534 --> 00:56:31,124
There's some really bad
people out on the streets.

936
00:56:31,174 --> 00:56:32,684
We've noticed.

937
00:56:32,734 --> 00:56:36,764
You could spend your time chasing them round
the block stead of me. Do summat useful.

938
00:56:36,814 --> 00:56:40,164
Well, I'll look into it after
my tea. How about that?

939
00:56:40,214 --> 00:56:43,444
So come on. Who started smashing
up furniture on Saturday night?

940
00:56:43,494 --> 00:56:46,404
Scottie.

941
00:56:46,454 --> 00:56:47,964
Why?

942
00:56:48,014 --> 00:56:49,604
I don't know. He was pissed.

943
00:56:49,654 --> 00:56:51,284
Whose head got the first chair?

944
00:56:51,334 --> 00:56:53,724
~ Peter's.
~ Then what?

945
00:56:53,774 --> 00:56:56,564
Peter smashed one over his
head. Got his own back.

946
00:56:56,614 --> 00:56:59,564
Then I smashed one over
Scottie's head, then

947
00:56:59,614 --> 00:57:02,404
they both smashed chairs over my
back cos they thought it was funny.

948
00:57:02,454 --> 00:57:05,324
Then Scottie smashed
one round Peter's face,

949
00:57:05,374 --> 00:57:07,564
then he staggered into
the bar and hurt himself

950
00:57:07,614 --> 00:57:10,444
and that's when blood got spilt
and that's when we stopped.

951
00:57:10,494 --> 00:57:14,564
And it was just the
three of you present?

952
00:57:14,614 --> 00:57:16,444
Was that a yes?

953
00:57:16,494 --> 00:57:17,524
Yes.

954
00:57:17,574 --> 00:57:22,364
And you have no explanation for
this extraordinary behaviour?

955
00:57:22,414 --> 00:57:26,044
Aye. And I've given
you it twice. Alcohol.

956
00:57:26,094 --> 00:57:30,883
Alcohol. High jinks.

957
00:57:30,933 --> 00:57:35,603
We all love each other so much
we couldn't possibly hurt each
other, even with a chair leg.

958
00:57:35,653 --> 00:57:38,563
We're just three mates
having fun. You know what?

959
00:57:38,613 --> 00:57:43,333
I don't believe a word of it.
Your mate was beaten to death.

960
00:57:47,813 --> 00:57:52,483
~ I don't know what else to say to you.
~ Well, try answering this, then.

961
00:57:52,533 --> 00:58:00,043
Why did your union veto Scott's
redevelopment plan? His city vision?

962
00:58:00,093 --> 00:58:04,443
You really don't understand
the political process, do you?

963
00:58:04,493 --> 00:58:08,363
We were one voice among many.

964
00:58:08,413 --> 00:58:10,603
That's not a veto.

965
00:58:10,653 --> 00:58:12,763
It's democracy.

966
00:58:12,813 --> 00:58:16,163
I'm sure you lot are in favour of it.

967
00:58:16,213 --> 00:58:18,843
Cos whenever there's a struggle
for democratic rights,

968
00:58:18,893 --> 00:58:21,763
the cops are always
on the wrong side.

969
00:58:24,453 --> 00:58:25,843
He needed your support.

970
00:58:25,893 --> 00:58:28,403
You refused to give it
to him. Why was that?

971
00:58:28,453 --> 00:58:32,763
Because, analyse the so-called
vision and guess what -

972
00:58:32,813 --> 00:58:35,203
it's just another piece
of property speculation

973
00:58:35,253 --> 00:58:37,083
designed to make a few guys rich.

974
00:58:37,133 --> 00:58:39,683
Guys like Scott Parker.

975
00:58:39,733 --> 00:58:41,533
And Peter Magath.

976
00:58:42,573 --> 00:58:46,043
See, I don't understand why you
bothered hanging around them.

977
00:58:46,093 --> 00:58:47,963
You despise everything
they stand for.

978
00:58:48,013 --> 00:58:51,122
~ Like I told you, you don't have to like...
~ Yeah, no, yeah, no.

979
00:58:51,172 --> 00:58:56,162
I've heard that one before. So this guy that
you loved, this guy that you wouldn't hurt,

980
00:58:56,212 --> 00:58:59,122
you beat the shit out of him cos
he's trying to earn three quid

981
00:58:59,172 --> 00:59:02,882
to pay his bills, right, and now,
he's in a fridge, with his name

982
00:59:02,932 --> 00:59:06,642
tied to his toe and his skull
smashed in three places.

983
00:59:06,692 --> 00:59:09,482
How many times did you hit
him with the chair leg?

984
00:59:09,532 --> 00:59:11,042
Once.

985
00:59:11,092 --> 00:59:14,082
What about Peter Magath? How
many times did he hit him?

986
00:59:14,132 --> 00:59:17,252
~ More than once.
~ How many?

987
00:59:19,132 --> 00:59:22,052
Three times. Maybe four.

988
00:59:32,452 --> 00:59:34,722
Rachel, it's your exam
today, isn't it?

989
00:59:34,772 --> 00:59:38,162
~ Yes, sir.
~ Well, good luck - not that you need it.
~ Thank you, sir.

990
00:59:38,212 --> 00:59:41,652
~ Knock 'em dead, Rachel.
~ Thank you, sir. Inspector Bacchus?

991
00:59:43,492 --> 00:59:46,002
~ That pub you were asking about?
~ Yeah?

992
00:59:46,052 --> 00:59:48,842
It's the Printer's Pie in Jesmond.

993
00:59:48,892 --> 00:59:51,162
Right. I'll give it a go.

994
00:59:51,212 --> 00:59:52,802
Give what a go?

995
00:59:52,852 --> 00:59:55,322
They've got an Aunt Sally team.

996
00:59:56,452 --> 01:00:00,122
So she said, "I'm
not doing it twice"!

997
01:00:00,172 --> 01:00:04,252
Hello, lads. Fancy a beer tonight?

998
01:00:05,732 --> 01:00:07,272
~ Aye.
~ Yeah.

999
01:00:08,172 --> 01:00:11,001
Companies House sent this over, sir.

1000
01:00:11,051 --> 01:00:13,321
Thank you, Peter. Hang on.

1001
01:00:26,971 --> 01:00:29,001
Can I call you back?

1002
01:00:29,051 --> 01:00:30,851
I will.

1003
01:00:48,131 --> 01:00:50,691
Gem, let's talk about it.

1004
01:01:06,331 --> 01:01:08,671
Right. Half of dark, please.

1005
01:01:13,611 --> 01:01:15,011
~ Ta.
~ Ta.

1006
01:01:25,891 --> 01:01:27,841
~ Could I have a quick word?
~ What about?

1007
01:01:27,891 --> 01:01:30,520
Spot of bother that
I've got myself into.

1008
01:01:30,570 --> 01:01:33,120
~ Somebody said you could help us out.
~ Who said?

1009
01:01:33,170 --> 01:01:35,120
Bloke called Tommy
Cary at the dog track.

1010
01:01:35,170 --> 01:01:37,240
Oh, Tommy, yeah. Yeah.

1011
01:01:39,810 --> 01:01:41,560
Financial bother, is it, er...?

1012
01:01:41,610 --> 01:01:43,240
~ John.
~ John.

1013
01:01:43,290 --> 01:01:45,890
Yeah. I... I lost my job.

1014
01:01:47,530 --> 01:01:50,880
I've taken a few too many
liabilities at once.

1015
01:01:50,930 --> 01:01:52,640
~ A little bit of bad luck?
~ Aye.

1016
01:01:52,690 --> 01:01:55,560
A bit of bad luck - knows
when to turn up, doesn't it?

1017
01:01:55,610 --> 01:01:57,680
Just when you least want it, usually.

1018
01:01:57,730 --> 01:02:00,200
What are you looking for, John?

1019
01:02:02,610 --> 01:02:05,250
~ ã250.
~ Over what period?

1020
01:02:07,050 --> 01:02:08,320
Um...

1021
01:02:10,490 --> 01:02:12,080
Well, I'm...

1022
01:02:12,130 --> 01:02:14,480
I could probably just get it
back to you in two months.

1023
01:02:14,530 --> 01:02:16,240
Three at the most.

1024
01:02:16,290 --> 01:02:20,800
It's 350 after two month,
and 450 after three month.

1025
01:02:20,850 --> 01:02:23,880
I'd probably feel more
comfortable with three months.

1026
01:02:23,930 --> 01:02:26,560
~ Confident about paying us back, John?
~ Oh, aye.

1027
01:02:26,610 --> 01:02:29,320
Cos we're professionals.
We will take your car.

1028
01:02:29,370 --> 01:02:33,480
~ We will take your house if necessary.
~ I rent.

1029
01:02:33,530 --> 01:02:38,000
Just so you know what you're getting
yourself into. This man...

1030
01:02:38,050 --> 01:02:41,480
I've watched him take the rings off
the fingers off a bankrupt's wife.

1031
01:02:41,530 --> 01:02:43,760
And smile when he's doing it.

1032
01:02:43,810 --> 01:02:48,199
Tell you what - leave the
rings, take the wife.

1033
01:02:48,249 --> 01:02:51,199
~ She bad luck, is she?
~ It's not going well.

1034
01:02:51,249 --> 01:02:53,359
What's she called?

1035
01:02:53,409 --> 01:02:55,999
~ Gemma.
~ Good looking, is she?

1036
01:02:56,049 --> 01:03:00,719
~ It's always the good-looking
ones that bring trouble.
~ Ah, she's a...

1037
01:03:00,769 --> 01:03:02,709
She's a real beaut.

1038
01:03:04,529 --> 01:03:08,559
Ooh, yes. That's trouble.

1039
01:03:08,609 --> 01:03:10,349
That IS trouble.

1040
01:03:13,369 --> 01:03:16,329
Yeah, we'd like to help you, John.

1041
01:03:17,569 --> 01:03:21,329
Ah, fantastic. Great. That's,
that's... that's great, lads.

1042
01:03:24,009 --> 01:03:26,159
Could I ask for a bit of help now?

1043
01:03:26,209 --> 01:03:27,679
For tonight?

1044
01:03:27,729 --> 01:03:31,039
Like... like an advance?
Yeah, yeah, we can do that.

1045
01:03:31,089 --> 01:03:34,919
Have you got any identification,
proof of address, anything?

1046
01:03:34,969 --> 01:03:38,809
Not here, John. We've got
to be a bit discreet.

1047
01:03:40,649 --> 01:03:42,159
20 notes suit you?

1048
01:03:42,209 --> 01:03:43,319
That'd be perfect.

1049
01:03:43,369 --> 01:03:47,359
There's a yard out back. Meet
us there. Couple of minutes.

1050
01:03:47,409 --> 01:03:49,449
Right. All right.

1051
01:03:52,689 --> 01:03:56,279
Thanks for everything. I really appreciate
it. It's a big weight off my mind.

1052
01:03:56,329 --> 01:03:59,119
Well, we like to help people, John.

1053
01:03:59,169 --> 01:04:01,479
There's a cold wind
blowing out there.

1054
01:04:01,529 --> 01:04:05,009
Aye, I know. I'm all right now
- I've got me long johns on.

1055
01:04:12,408 --> 01:04:13,888
Tosser.

1056
01:04:19,088 --> 01:04:21,288
Hey! What's going on? Ow!

1057
01:04:36,768 --> 01:04:39,038
All right, lads. That's it.

1058
01:04:41,248 --> 01:04:43,848
Well done. I'll see you tomorrow.

1059
01:04:51,928 --> 01:04:54,158
This is your only warning.

1060
01:04:54,208 --> 01:04:56,918
Jo Parker is protected from now on.

1061
01:04:56,968 --> 01:04:59,398
You go anywhere near her ever again

1062
01:04:59,448 --> 01:05:03,798
and you'll regret it for the rest
of your lives. Do you understand?

1063
01:05:03,848 --> 01:05:08,248
Go home, get any agreements that she
entered into with you and burn them.

1064
01:05:19,168 --> 01:05:22,358
They won't be bothering her again.

1065
01:05:22,408 --> 01:05:25,598
You frighten me sometimes,
Inspector Bacchus.

1066
01:05:25,648 --> 01:05:28,677
Me? I'm just a pussycat.

1067
01:05:28,727 --> 01:05:31,127
~ Morning, Sir.
~ Morning, Harpo.

1068
01:05:33,247 --> 01:05:34,997
How did it go, Rachel?

1069
01:05:35,047 --> 01:05:36,557
Oh, yeah, how did it go?

1070
01:05:36,607 --> 01:05:39,277
All right, I think. I think.

1071
01:05:39,327 --> 01:05:40,677
Fingers crossed.

1072
01:05:40,727 --> 01:05:45,117
~ You'll get the result you deserve, Rachel.
~ Well, if she does, she can always re-sit.

1073
01:05:45,167 --> 01:05:47,957
You just couldn't resist
it, could you, eh? Is he in?

1074
01:05:48,007 --> 01:05:50,687
~ Yep.
~ Rachel. Sit in.
~ Really?

1075
01:05:53,487 --> 01:05:55,957
So you knew he was skint.

1076
01:05:56,007 --> 01:05:58,277
You knew he was desperate.

1077
01:06:00,567 --> 01:06:02,477
I knew he was skint.

1078
01:06:02,527 --> 01:06:05,627
Did he ask you for money
on the day he died?

1079
01:06:07,247 --> 01:06:11,277
Yeah. So you're telling us for
instance that you didn't know

1080
01:06:11,327 --> 01:06:14,597
that he was so short of money that
he was pawning his wife's jewellery?

1081
01:06:14,647 --> 01:06:17,597
Aye. Anita noticed the
jewellery had gone.

1082
01:06:17,647 --> 01:06:20,077
Yeah. Your wife noticed
it, so you knew.

1083
01:06:20,127 --> 01:06:21,477
Yeah.

1084
01:06:21,527 --> 01:06:23,517
How many times do I
have to bail him out

1085
01:06:23,567 --> 01:06:25,237
because she's a pathological gambler?

1086
01:06:25,287 --> 01:06:27,397
I don't know. I'm asking
you what you knew.

1087
01:06:27,447 --> 01:06:30,557
Were you aware that he took
work as a casual labourer

1088
01:06:30,607 --> 01:06:33,557
working as a scab
collecting rubbish bags?

1089
01:06:33,607 --> 01:06:37,277
~ What?
~ Which led to a public fistfight
with Michael Woodruff.

1090
01:06:37,327 --> 01:06:40,957
You're making that up. Those
two are like brothers.

1091
01:06:41,007 --> 01:06:45,037
Yeah. I had a brother like that, once.
He knocked seven sorts of shit out of me.

1092
01:06:45,087 --> 01:06:47,716
Or were you aware that
their debts were so severe

1093
01:06:47,766 --> 01:06:51,076
that Jo Parker is being physically
harassed by loan sharks?

1094
01:06:51,126 --> 01:06:54,246
No. No, I didn't know.

1095
01:06:58,246 --> 01:07:00,716
I'll find a way to help her out.

1096
01:07:00,766 --> 01:07:02,906
That's very nice of you.

1097
01:07:04,366 --> 01:07:08,116
So, we're agreed he was
desperate. You didn't know.

1098
01:07:08,166 --> 01:07:09,996
Or maybe you didn't want to know.

1099
01:07:10,046 --> 01:07:13,796
Now this all kicked off on the night
of your birthday party, yeah?

1100
01:07:13,846 --> 01:07:15,756
I wanted to help him.

1101
01:07:15,806 --> 01:07:17,956
What stopped you?

1102
01:07:18,006 --> 01:07:21,916
Or maybe it's a case
of WHO stopped you?

1103
01:07:21,966 --> 01:07:26,396
Cos your wife isn't particularly
keen on Jo and Scott Parker, is she?

1104
01:07:26,446 --> 01:07:29,276
You leave Anita out of this.

1105
01:07:29,326 --> 01:07:33,606
I'll leave your wife out of it when you
tell me the truth about what happened.

1106
01:07:36,646 --> 01:07:38,716
The party had finished.

1107
01:07:38,766 --> 01:07:41,476
Me, Scottie and Michael were
having one for the ditch.

1108
01:07:41,526 --> 01:07:45,676
Cowboy shit, phoney.

1109
01:07:45,726 --> 01:07:49,196
Phoney, phoney, phoney.

1110
01:07:49,246 --> 01:07:53,596
He's off.

1111
01:07:53,646 --> 01:07:56,196
Like you, Peter.

1112
01:07:56,246 --> 01:07:58,156
Hah!

1113
01:07:58,206 --> 01:08:00,436
Yeah. Smile, Peter.

1114
01:08:00,486 --> 01:08:04,965
Nicest bloke in the
world. You know what?

1115
01:08:06,205 --> 01:08:08,195
You're empty, man.

1116
01:08:08,245 --> 01:08:11,125
Empty life, empty marriage.

1117
01:08:15,125 --> 01:08:16,875
Look, I think we'll
call it a night, yeah?

1118
01:08:16,925 --> 01:08:19,275
Right, we're closed now.

1119
01:08:19,325 --> 01:08:21,675
Oh, Michael. Peter's stopped smiling.

1120
01:08:21,725 --> 01:08:23,155
Why's that, you think?

1121
01:08:23,205 --> 01:08:24,915
Come on, I'll take you home.

1122
01:08:24,965 --> 01:08:26,475
No. What did I say, eh?

1123
01:08:26,525 --> 01:08:28,955
That wiped the smile off his face?

1124
01:08:29,005 --> 01:08:31,605
Was it the bit about the marriage?

1125
01:08:36,805 --> 01:08:39,475
Ooh! All right, Pete.

1126
01:08:39,525 --> 01:08:42,075
Ah, you're just drunk.
I'll call you a taxi.

1127
01:08:42,125 --> 01:08:44,925
Yeah, taxi. TAXI!

1128
01:08:47,805 --> 01:08:50,755
~ This is phoney!
~ Ah, very clever.

1129
01:08:50,805 --> 01:08:53,395
Phoney cowboy shit, phoney crap life.

1130
01:08:53,445 --> 01:08:58,195
~ Scottie, put that chair...
~ That's phoney, like my life.
You want a piece of that.
~ Hey!

1131
01:08:58,245 --> 01:09:00,115
Come on, then!

1132
01:09:00,165 --> 01:09:01,875
End of story.

1133
01:09:01,925 --> 01:09:04,835
So it wasn't three drunken
boys having fun.

1134
01:09:04,885 --> 01:09:07,155
And it had nothing to do with
John Wayne and Lee Marvin.

1135
01:09:07,205 --> 01:09:11,875
It was about Scottie lashing
out. At me, and at Michael.

1136
01:09:11,925 --> 01:09:14,915
What did he mean by
your "empty marriage"?

1137
01:09:14,965 --> 01:09:18,315
He wanted to lash out at
Anita as well. He was angry.

1138
01:09:18,365 --> 01:09:22,115
That was it. That's all it was.

1139
01:09:22,165 --> 01:09:26,634
If the taxi firm had answered the
phone, if he'd got home safe...

1140
01:09:26,684 --> 01:09:29,994
If he hadn't died that night,
we'd all be friends again.

1141
01:09:30,044 --> 01:09:33,514
~ All this would be forgotten.
~ You sure?

1142
01:09:33,564 --> 01:09:38,284
Well, I wonder if Scott would
have forgiven you for this?

1143
01:09:43,604 --> 01:09:48,754
Yeah. It's a transfer of
land ownership, isn't it?

1144
01:09:48,804 --> 01:09:51,794
The land that Scott bought
for his vision of Newcastle

1145
01:09:51,844 --> 01:09:54,194
and failed to get planning
permission for.

1146
01:09:54,244 --> 01:09:56,394
You and your wife invested in it.

1147
01:09:56,444 --> 01:09:59,034
And when the bank foreclosed,
you had the right to buy it,

1148
01:09:59,084 --> 01:10:01,794
which you did at a knock-down price,

1149
01:10:01,844 --> 01:10:04,554
leaving Scott with the debts.

1150
01:10:04,604 --> 01:10:06,434
It's a hard world.

1151
01:10:06,484 --> 01:10:08,994
It's a nasty world, isn't it?

1152
01:10:09,044 --> 01:10:11,034
Especially when you consider
the following -

1153
01:10:11,084 --> 01:10:13,994
there are three directors
of this company.

1154
01:10:14,044 --> 01:10:17,674
You, your wife...

1155
01:10:17,724 --> 01:10:20,114
and Michael Woodruff,

1156
01:10:20,164 --> 01:10:24,594
the man whose loud voice scuppered
the planning application

1157
01:10:24,644 --> 01:10:28,394
upon which Scott Parker's
dreams depended.

1158
01:10:28,444 --> 01:10:31,074
You all shafted him.

1159
01:10:31,124 --> 01:10:34,364
Perhaps it's just as well he
never lived to find that out.

1160
01:10:37,364 --> 01:10:39,994
Go and pick them up for me,
would you, please, John?

1161
01:10:40,044 --> 01:10:43,043
~ Rachel, go and get Jo Parker.
~ Right, sir.

1162
01:10:48,163 --> 01:10:50,703
You'll find Michael at my house.

1163
01:10:58,123 --> 01:11:01,673
So when did Scott first
tell you about his scheme?

1164
01:11:01,723 --> 01:11:04,363
It was at Pete's Bar.

1165
01:11:05,843 --> 01:11:09,433
I've just had these plans drawn up from
the architect. Here, have a look at that.

1166
01:11:09,483 --> 01:11:11,313
You're spending on
architects again, man.

1167
01:11:11,363 --> 01:11:13,953
'What I loved about Scottie
was he had this infectious,

1168
01:11:14,003 --> 01:11:17,433
'naive belief in the power of
architecture, public planning,

1169
01:11:17,483 --> 01:11:22,433
'changing the cityscape and thus
people's lives for the better.'

1170
01:11:22,483 --> 01:11:29,403
Streets in the sky, houses
made of sunlight and steel.

1171
01:11:31,723 --> 01:11:35,993
You had to love him for
it. All mad, of course.

1172
01:11:36,043 --> 01:11:37,993
Pie in the sky.

1173
01:11:38,043 --> 01:11:40,033
Made no sense as a business venture.

1174
01:11:40,083 --> 01:11:42,113
So why did you invest?

1175
01:11:42,163 --> 01:11:45,873
Because the astonishing thing
was, somehow Scottie,

1176
01:11:45,923 --> 01:11:47,833
with all his barking mad ideas,

1177
01:11:47,883 --> 01:11:51,473
had managed to get a piece
of prime development land

1178
01:11:51,523 --> 01:11:53,663
for a pretty good price.

1179
01:11:54,683 --> 01:11:56,553
He couldn't pay for
it, unfortunately,

1180
01:11:56,603 --> 01:12:00,193
but that didn't seem to matter
because in some way,

1181
01:12:00,243 --> 01:12:04,152
it couldn't go wrong - you
know, as a business deal -

1182
01:12:04,202 --> 01:12:05,552
with the right people in.

1183
01:12:05,602 --> 01:12:08,032
And the wrong ones out.

1184
01:12:08,082 --> 01:12:10,872
He had a chance - the
chance of a lifetime.

1185
01:12:10,922 --> 01:12:15,402
He could've been rich on his share
if he'd just been willing to...

1186
01:12:16,562 --> 01:12:18,502
.. modify his plans.

1187
01:12:22,042 --> 01:12:24,042
Bin them, you mean...

1188
01:12:25,642 --> 01:12:27,712
.. in favour of yours.

1189
01:12:29,802 --> 01:12:33,042
Go easy on Anita and Michael
when you see them, Mr Gently.

1190
01:12:35,042 --> 01:12:36,782
They're in love.

1191
01:12:44,722 --> 01:12:49,322
When we were kids, the three of us...

1192
01:12:52,882 --> 01:12:56,842
.. Scottie was the strong
one somehow, the leader.

1193
01:13:03,442 --> 01:13:10,072
I was the troublemaker,
always in fights.

1194
01:13:10,122 --> 01:13:11,432
What makes you?

1195
01:13:11,482 --> 01:13:13,622
Where does it come from?

1196
01:13:16,922 --> 01:13:18,392
I got chucked out of the Cubs

1197
01:13:18,442 --> 01:13:22,241
on me first night for laughing
at the National Anthem.

1198
01:13:22,321 --> 01:13:27,441
Why? How did I know I
thought it was funny?

1199
01:13:29,561 --> 01:13:31,911
Don't forget your meeting at
the Town Hall, sweetheart,

1200
01:13:31,961 --> 01:13:34,511
or you'll get drummed out
the Brownies as well.

1201
01:13:34,561 --> 01:13:36,721
Yeah, plenty of time.

1202
01:13:38,801 --> 01:13:41,271
I'm going to have you
again before I go.

1203
01:13:41,321 --> 01:13:43,791
Are you? Don't I get a say?

1204
01:13:43,841 --> 01:13:45,041
Nah.

1205
01:13:46,081 --> 01:13:47,421
Lovely.

1206
01:13:51,801 --> 01:13:56,921
Peter was the cow's tail,
always hanging behind.

1207
01:13:58,561 --> 01:14:01,301
Why are you telling us this, Michael?

1208
01:14:02,401 --> 01:14:06,871
Because how is it all
these years later

1209
01:14:06,921 --> 01:14:09,471
I more and more get the feeling
I'm part of some plan

1210
01:14:09,521 --> 01:14:12,121
Peter's got worked out for us all?

1211
01:14:13,201 --> 01:14:16,271
All his life, people have
underestimated Peter Magath.

1212
01:14:16,321 --> 01:14:19,061
And now it's Inspector Gently's turn.

1213
01:14:22,641 --> 01:14:26,241
Oh, ignore it. It'll be somebody
selling insurance.

1214
01:14:27,201 --> 01:14:28,541
Police!

1215
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:05,240
Jo!

1216
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:08,400
It's Rachel!

1217
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,000
Jo?!

1218
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:35,030
Having a bit of trouble
locating Mrs Parker.

1219
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:37,910
Your wife and Michael
are on their way.

1220
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,470
Since there's a reasonable chance
you could be facing a charge

1221
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:45,520
by the time we finish, I'm reminding
you of your right to a solicitor.

1222
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:50,400
No, thanks.

1223
01:16:21,759 --> 01:16:23,189
Oi!

1224
01:16:23,239 --> 01:16:29,159
Can I have some bacon, please, and
some eggs and those cigarettes. Jo?

1225
01:16:30,759 --> 01:16:32,229
All right.

1226
01:16:39,079 --> 01:16:40,989
Go upstairs and wash your face.

1227
01:16:41,039 --> 01:16:43,509
Put some smart clothes
on and brush your hair.

1228
01:16:43,559 --> 01:16:46,299
We've got to go down to the station.

1229
01:16:49,879 --> 01:16:54,789
Jo, those men, they won't
be bothering you any more.

1230
01:16:54,839 --> 01:16:57,239
So you can forget about them.

1231
01:17:16,319 --> 01:17:18,589
Right, take a seat, please.

1232
01:17:27,318 --> 01:17:31,668
They're to have no contact with each
other and none with Peter Magath.

1233
01:17:31,718 --> 01:17:35,108
Same goes for Mrs Parker
when she gets here.

1234
01:17:35,158 --> 01:17:37,308
Were they in bed together?

1235
01:17:37,358 --> 01:17:38,758
Think so.

1236
01:17:41,158 --> 01:17:42,868
Sir.

1237
01:17:42,918 --> 01:17:46,158
It's come back. There's two
lads just arrived, Sir.

1238
01:17:48,638 --> 01:17:51,548
Why didn't you mention
this two nights ago, Neil?

1239
01:17:51,598 --> 01:17:52,668
Didn't think.

1240
01:17:52,718 --> 01:17:55,308
Didn't think or wasn't
told what to say?

1241
01:17:55,358 --> 01:17:58,468
You both work for Anita
and Peter Magath.

1242
01:17:58,518 --> 01:17:59,988
Is that just a bloody coincidence?

1243
01:18:00,038 --> 01:18:03,078
No, that's why we were
in the area, wasn't it?

1244
01:18:04,598 --> 01:18:07,268
We left Pete's Bar at about 12:40.

1245
01:18:07,318 --> 01:18:08,908
Mr Magath locked the door behind us

1246
01:18:08,958 --> 01:18:12,108
and then we went over the bridge
to a lock in, in Gateshead.

1247
01:18:12,158 --> 01:18:14,708
Got there about one o'clock.

1248
01:18:14,758 --> 01:18:18,148
We stayed just over an hour and
then came back the same way.

1249
01:18:18,198 --> 01:18:21,868
When we were crossing the High
Level again, about half past two,

1250
01:18:21,918 --> 01:18:24,068
that's when we saw him.

1251
01:18:24,118 --> 01:18:26,468
And you're telling me the same story?

1252
01:18:26,518 --> 01:18:27,718
Aye.

1253
01:18:28,598 --> 01:18:32,708
So you both saw Scott
Parker, alone, alive,

1254
01:18:32,758 --> 01:18:36,228
and on his own two feet, on the
High Level Bridge at approximately

1255
01:18:36,278 --> 01:18:37,708
2:30 on Monday morning?

1256
01:18:37,758 --> 01:18:40,227
Is that what you're telling me?

1257
01:18:41,037 --> 01:18:43,177
What did you say to him?

1258
01:18:43,397 --> 01:18:45,827
We said "Goodnight, Mr Parker".

1259
01:18:45,877 --> 01:18:48,027
And what did he say to you?

1260
01:18:48,077 --> 01:18:50,707
Nowt. He just stared
into the parapet.

1261
01:18:50,757 --> 01:18:54,227
He had blood on his head, but
he was standing up straight.

1262
01:18:54,277 --> 01:18:58,147
And you would both be prepared to
repeat this story in court, where

1263
01:18:58,197 --> 01:19:01,677
to tell a lie is called perjury
and carries a prison sentence?

1264
01:19:06,237 --> 01:19:07,907
Write it down.

1265
01:19:26,397 --> 01:19:28,997
Done us up like a pair of kippers.

1266
01:19:33,317 --> 01:19:37,997
So, what do we do now - just
let them all go home again?

1267
01:20:02,396 --> 01:20:04,796
If you'd like to take a seat.

1268
01:20:34,556 --> 01:20:36,226
A man is dead.

1269
01:20:38,756 --> 01:20:42,186
Between you, you four people
- supposedly his nearest

1270
01:20:42,236 --> 01:20:45,866
and dearest - are responsible for
that death, however it came about.

1271
01:20:45,916 --> 01:20:49,636
Yes, and I know that I may never
know exactly what happened.

1272
01:20:51,836 --> 01:20:57,346
Mrs Parker, your addiction to gambling
ruined his finances and led

1273
01:20:57,396 --> 01:21:01,756
him into desperation and yourself
into what amounted to prostitution.

1274
01:21:03,996 --> 01:21:06,066
Mrs Magath,

1275
01:21:06,116 --> 01:21:09,306
there was no love lost between you
and the dead man, I know that - so

1276
01:21:09,356 --> 01:21:14,746
at least in your case it was simple
greed, not hypocrisy like these two,

1277
01:21:14,796 --> 01:21:17,065
his so-called best friends.

1278
01:21:17,435 --> 01:21:20,825
You betrayed and cheated a man
that you'd grown up with and you

1279
01:21:20,875 --> 01:21:24,145
must carry that on your consciences
for the rest of your lives.

1280
01:21:24,195 --> 01:21:27,495
Assuming, of course, that
you have consciences.

1281
01:21:28,395 --> 01:21:32,755
But it's my opinion that one
or both of you killed him.

1282
01:21:36,555 --> 01:21:42,425
But two witnesses have come forward
- both employees of the Magaths -

1283
01:21:42,475 --> 01:21:46,705
who are prepared to swear that
they saw Scott Parker alive,

1284
01:21:46,755 --> 01:21:52,275
if not exactly well, after he left
Pete's Bar on that Sunday night.

1285
01:21:55,035 --> 01:22:02,145
That being the case, Mrs Parker,
I will inform the coroner that

1286
01:22:02,195 --> 01:22:06,115
I now have no objection to releasing
your husband's body for burial.

1287
01:22:12,355 --> 01:22:15,705
Jo, do you want me to take you home?

1288
01:22:15,755 --> 01:22:18,995
No, I'll take Jo home.
Jo, is that OK?

1289
01:22:19,995 --> 01:22:21,595
Come on then.

1290
01:23:10,634 --> 01:23:13,704
Merciful Father and Lord
of all life, we praise you

1291
01:23:13,754 --> 01:23:17,514
that we are made in your image
and reflect your truth and light.

1292
01:23:18,954 --> 01:23:21,064
Above all, we rejoice
at your gracious promise

1293
01:23:21,114 --> 01:23:24,264
to all your servants,
living and departed,

1294
01:23:24,314 --> 01:23:27,904
that we shall rise again
at the coming of Christ.

1295
01:23:27,954 --> 01:23:30,504
Which one of them actually
did it, do you think?

1296
01:23:30,554 --> 01:23:32,584
We'll never know, John, will we?

1297
01:23:32,634 --> 01:23:35,704
Phoney. Phoney. Completely phoney.

1298
01:23:35,754 --> 01:23:38,184
He's off.

1299
01:23:38,234 --> 01:23:39,974
Like you, Peter.

1300
01:23:41,554 --> 01:23:44,264
Look. I think we'll
call it a night, yeah.

1301
01:23:44,314 --> 01:23:46,664
Right, we're closed now.

1302
01:23:46,714 --> 01:23:48,424
Oh, Michael. Peter's stopped smiling.

1303
01:23:48,474 --> 01:23:50,224
Why's that, you think?

1304
01:23:50,274 --> 01:23:51,824
~ Come on.
~ No, no. What did I say, eh,

1305
01:23:51,874 --> 01:23:54,144
that wiped the smile off his face?

1306
01:23:54,194 --> 01:23:58,583
Was it the bit about the marriage?

1307
01:23:58,633 --> 01:23:59,903
Ooh...

1308
01:24:03,033 --> 01:24:05,543
You're really drunk.
I'll get you a taxi.

1309
01:24:05,593 --> 01:24:07,663
TAXI!

1310
01:24:07,713 --> 01:24:10,743
You shut it now, Scott.
I've put you down once,

1311
01:24:10,793 --> 01:24:12,063
don't make us do it again.

1312
01:24:12,113 --> 01:24:14,713
You're right, mate. You're right.

1313
01:24:15,233 --> 01:24:17,863
~ I said phoney.
~ Ah, great.
~ Phoney, phoney.
~ Scottie!

1314
01:24:17,913 --> 01:24:22,823
~ Crap. Come on then. Do
you want a bit, Michael?
~ Hey.
~ Come on, big man.

1315
01:24:22,873 --> 01:24:26,463
~ Stop being a bloody idiot.
~ You want a piece of that!

1316
01:24:26,513 --> 01:24:27,903
Come on then.

1317
01:24:27,953 --> 01:24:29,103
Scottie. Hey, man.

1318
01:24:29,153 --> 01:24:31,983
We thank you for the life
of your child, Scott.

1319
01:24:32,033 --> 01:24:35,983
For the love he received from
you and showed amongst us.

1320
01:24:36,033 --> 01:24:38,703
Above all, we rejoice that
your gracious promise

1321
01:24:38,753 --> 01:24:41,853
to all your servants,
living and departed...

1322
01:24:42,393 --> 01:24:43,423
Enough.

1323
01:24:43,473 --> 01:24:44,543
Come on then.

1324
01:24:44,593 --> 01:24:46,263
Scottie, stop!

1325
01:24:53,313 --> 01:24:57,583
..And we ask that in due time we may
share with our brother that clearer

1326
01:24:57,633 --> 01:25:01,113
vision when we shall see your face
in the same Christ as our Lord.

1327
01:25:02,193 --> 01:25:04,503
We now commit his body to the ground.

1328
01:25:04,553 --> 01:25:07,383
Earth to earth, ashes
to ashes, dust to dust.

1329
01:25:07,433 --> 01:25:12,063
In the sure and certain hope of
the resurrection to eternal life.

1330
01:25:45,992 --> 01:25:47,272
Ergh!

1331
01:25:54,192 --> 01:25:55,462
Urgh!

1332
01:26:20,072 --> 01:26:22,542
Yes, good, glad you like it,

1333
01:26:22,592 --> 01:26:25,302
cos Anita and I both

1334
01:26:25,352 --> 01:26:28,142
see this very much

1335
01:26:28,192 --> 01:26:30,792
being Scottie's legacy, don't we?

1336
01:26:31,672 --> 01:26:35,061
Very much, very much. It's
what he would've wanted.

1337
01:26:35,111 --> 01:26:39,311
And we're going to make sure
Jo benefits as well, aren't we?

1338
01:26:41,591 --> 01:26:43,191
We're family.

1339
01:26:52,431 --> 01:26:54,501
~ You had a brother?
~ Mm?

1340
01:26:54,551 --> 01:26:57,541
You said you had a brother.
Used to thump you.

1341
01:26:57,591 --> 01:26:59,661
Yeah. Died in the war.

1342
01:26:59,711 --> 01:27:00,741
In action?

1343
01:27:00,791 --> 01:27:04,391
Yeah. Well, diphtheria.

1344
01:27:06,591 --> 01:27:08,661
He was my best friend.

1345
01:27:12,951 --> 01:27:14,751
Until I met Isabelle.
