All language subtitles for Hinterland - 03x01 - Losing a Child (PART I).WEB-DL.English.orig.Addic7ed.com

You didn't see the attacker?

No. He didn't say anything?
No sign of a vehicle?

Can you think of anyone,
anyone at all

who might hold a grudge against you?

Hm! That's a long list.

Any recent disputes? No.

With somebody local, perhaps.

Like Iwan Thomas?

I saw what happened
at the caravan park, sir.

You didn't exactly part
the best of friends.

That doesn't mean he attacked me.

Well, he hasn't been seen
or heard from since the attack.

His flat's been cleared out,
his car's gone.

Well, Iwan's angry, isn't he?
He's lost everything.

His job, his family.
He blames everyone.

Does he blame you?

Why would he blame me, DS Owens?

I don't know, sir, but whoever did
this took everything from you.

Your home, your possessions.
That caravan was never my home.

OK, sir, but I'm just aware that
this was a very personal attack.

Doesn't that leave you feeling
vulnerable? Angry? Yes.

But whatever I feel has no bearing
on you finding my attacker, does it?

Local minister, Elwyn Jones.

Found dead this morning, sir.

Forensics? On their way.

Wife found the body.
Family yet to be questioned, sir.

Thank you, Lloyd.

I thought you were taking
some time to recover?

This place has been broken into
a few times over the years.

Anything taken this time?

Nothing left to take.

He went to the chapel to pray
first thing every morning.

But this morning...

..he didn't come back.

Were you aware of any problems
within the congregation?

Any disagreements, quarrels?

No.

Elwyn was very well thought of.

No reason why anyone
would want to harm him?

Of course not.

You're Elin's mum, aren't you?

That's right. She's the year above
me in school. She'd know who I am.

I'm sure she would.

Do you know anything
that could help us, Beca?

Beca?

There was an argument.

I-I came home early
from school on Thursday.

I didn't have any classes
that afternoon.

I went upstairs to get changed.

I heard someone at the door.

And then...shouting.

I looked through the window
and I saw Dad arguing with someone.

With who?

Lyn Edwards. The vet?

What was it about? I couldn't hear.

Did you ask your father
about it afterwards?

It's not my business to.
Lyn was very faithful to the chapel.

The whole family were.
But then there was a car accident.

His son, Gethin, was killed.

And Elwyn went up there to speak
to them, to offer comfort.

I don't know exactly
what was said, but, um...

..they...they never came back
to Seion after that.

My father believed everything
that happens is God's will.

Including the bad things.

He'd never deliberately
offend anyone...

..but sometimes he got it wrong.

Have you spoken to DS Owens?

Iwan Thomas.

Do you think it was him?

He tried to kill you, Tom.

If he wanted to kill me,
I'd be dead, wouldn't I?

Lyn Edwards?

Early lambing.

If I have to perform a Caesarean,

I try and get the animal in the back
of the Land Rover, out of the mud.

Which farm were you at?

Er...Clos Celyn. Up the hill?

Yeah. Why? Elwyn Jones?

He's been killed, unfortunately.
We found his body this morning.

Yeah, I heard.

We heard that you'd fallen out
with him recently.

Oh, we had a few words, yeah.
What about?

God.

Capel Seion has been a big part
of our lives since we moved here.

My son, Gethin,
was christened there.

But, er, when he was killed...

..we lost our faith.

Could you tell us about your
relationship with Elwyn Jones?

I thought he'd understand,
but, er...he sat in our house

and told us how our son's death
somehow was God's will.

That nearly broke my wife, Iola.

I told him to stay away,
to leave us alone. And did he?

No, he kept calling over
when I was at work.

I had to put a stop to it!

I thought Elwyn was a good man.

But he was a self-righteous fool.

Losing a child...

..changes everything.

You try and make sense
of what's happened, but...

..you can't.

When Lyn Edwards lost his child,
he lost his whole world.

He was angry.

He should be.

Angry enough to kill?

Come on.

At eight o'clock this morning,
the body of Elwyn Jones,

minister at Capel Seion,

was discovered in his own chapel
at Cefn Sarn.

We're still working to establish
the exact time of death,

but we believe that he was murdered
during the early hours
of this morning.

Elwyn Jones was a community leader.

Active in and out of the chapel.

He was respected and loved.

His murder has shaken
the local community.

We would like to ask the...

..in the days and hours
leading to the murder,

to contact us with any information
they may have,

regardless of how trivial
it may seem.

We would also...

You all right, sir? Hm? Yeah.

Huh! Fine. Thanks.

Are you OK, Lloyd?
Yes, sir, I'm fine.

Good, so we're all fine.

Early reports from Pathology are in.

Time of death
between 5am and 7am.

There was also a high level of
alcohol in the victim's blood.

He likes his drink. Mm-hm.

Oi!

Oh! Sorry! Sorry!

My fault. Let me help you.
No, no, I'm fine.

Huh! Sorry.

What can I get you?
I'll have one of those, please.

Thanks.

Is it always this lively here?

We had plans to modernise. Renovate.

We?

Well, plans change.

Yeah.

What about you?

What about me?

Have you got any plans?

Hello?

When?

Now?

OK.

My wife's staying with
her sister for a while.

Under the circumstances,
I thought it a good idea.

What circumstances?

You're lucky to be alive, Tom.

And until we find Iwan Thomas,
he continues to be a threat.

To both of us.

I met up with him the night
before he attacked you.

He was making all sorts
of wild accusations.

What kind of accusations?

He accused me of single-handedly
wrecking his career.

He's obsessed by it.

Well, have you told DS Owens
about this, sir?

I don't think telling her now
would help her find him.

Well, she's in charge of
the investigation, sir, not me.

Iwan Thomas has unfinished
business with both of us.

We need to be careful, Tom.

You need to be careful.

I spoke to Eurof Daniel last night.
The preacher?

He said that something troubled him
about Elwyn's marriage. In what way?

He didn't quite say.

So I pulled Sioned's medical records

to see if she was on
any antidepressants.

She went to A&E last year
with a broken wrist.

Said that she'd fallen
in the garden,

but the doctors put it down
as suspicious.

You think he beat her?

There are a few instances
going back over the years.

Broken rib, black eye.

I find the music comforting.

My father did, too.

I feel closer to God here
than I do anywhere else.

Well, that's good.

Do you have faith? Me?

I did once.

For me...

..faith reshapes the way
the faithful see the world.

And sometimes, we forget to make
allowances for people

who don't see things the same way.

Did you learn that at theology
college? Was I preaching? Huh!

No, just being passionate,
that's all.

Your father. Was he a good man?

He tried to be.

But nobody is truly good.
That's the point of Christianity.

To bridge the gap between
the perfect and the imperfect.

God and man.

So, he wasn't perfect?

If you believe in the Bible,

there's a force of evil
that compels our actions

if you don't surrender yourself
to God.

But your father,
he surrendered himself to God.

And things still happened,
didn't they?

We're all born sinners.

He tried his best.

And we forgave him.
And forgave and forgave.

Things didn't change.

Do you think...sinners are punished?

We all sin and deserve punishment.

However we get it
is down to the grace of God.

Lloyd? I've been going through
a list of people

associated with the chapel, sir.

There's a gardener, Trystan Meilir,
who cuts the grass.

Turns out he's got
a criminal record. What for?

Breaking and entering. He spent two
years at a young offenders' unit.

Where does he live? I'm sending
the address over now, sir.

Fine.

Good.

We're looking for a Trystan Meilir.
Does he live here? Who's asking?

We need to speak to him.

Thank you(!)

Trystan Meilir?

Do you know why we're here?
I can guess.

Where were you yesterday morning
between five and seven? Asleep.

Can anyone verify that?

No.

How well do you know Elwyn Jones?

He offered me work, I took it.

Did you ever talk to him?
Nothing to talk about, really.

I did the work...he paid me
and I went on my way.

Did you tell him about your past?

About your time at the young
offenders' unit? He didn't ask.

I didn't tell him.

But he knew about it?
Well, it wasn't exactly a secret.

And it's not like I killed anyone.

Isn't it?

Thank you for your time.

It's not me
you should be talking to.

It's the vet.

And why should we be talking to him?

Because Elwyn Jones
was shagging his wife.

Mrs Edwards?

Mrs Edwards?

My husband's not here.

We were hoping to have
a word with you, actually.

Is this about Elwyn?

We understand that you
knew him well.

I did.

He buried my son.

Lyn fell to pieces
after Gethin's death.

He stopped going to chapel,
he...he lost his faith.

But mine grew stronger.

Was your relationship with the
minister ever more than...spiritual?

Was it a physical relationship?

No!

Never!

I love my husband.

But you and the minister were close,
right?

I mean, you...you knew him well?

I thought I did.

Last week, I went to see him at
the chapel and he was different,

he was...

He was angry.

He said some hurtful things.
What things?

He said, er...

..that I shouldn't blame God
for taking away my son,

that I should blame myself because
I was the one driving the car.

What happened then?

I left, I came home, um...
I was upset.

And then Lyn arrived home and
he could see that I'd been crying

and so, I had no choice,
I had to tell him.

And then Lyn went to confront
the minister?

He went over to the house,
told him to keep away from me,

to keep away from both of us.

And that was the end of that?

No. Er...Elwyn came here
a few days later.

Why? To apologise.

And I said that I forgave him,
but deep down,

I'd seen him for what he was and
I wasn't going to be fooled again.

And was Lyn here when the minister
came to the house? No.

But he passed Elwyn's car
on the road. He was furious.

Wanted to go after him,
have it out with him. And did he?

No, no. I persuaded him not to.

Iola, what day was that?

Erm...the day before he died.

So, the next morning, the morning
that he was killed, murdered,

when you woke up...

..was your husband with you?

No.

No, he'd already left.

When we spoke to you yesterday,
Mr Edwards,

you told us that you and your wife
had turned your backs

on the chapel
after the death of your son.

Yes.

That you were consoling each other,

helping each other
through your grief.

Yes, that's right. That's not
the whole truth, is it, Mr Edwards?

The truth is, you may have lost
your faith, but your wife,

her faith was the only thing
she had left.

Since the death of your son, you and
your wife have been like strangers.

No. Each of you trying to find
your way through, a way of coping.

For you, it was your work.
But that wasn't enough for Iola.

What she needed was solace.

Spiritual comfort.

And that is what the minister
was able to give her.

And the fact that
he was able to do that,

to comfort her in a way that you
couldn't, that made you angry!

Jealous! No.

That's not it.

The man was cruel.

He offered a hope
and then took it away.

That's why you went to his house
last week to tell him to stay away.

Yes. He came to your house, didn't
he, after you warned him not to.

And when your wife told you
that he'd been there

you lost your temper. No.

I don't blame you. You warned him
to stay away and he didn't listen.

You were only trying
to protect your wife.

You'd lost your son.

Your life had fallen apart
and then this man, this minister,

came to your house
and dared to blame your wife

for her own son's death.

Of course you lost your temper.
Why wouldn't you?

I've told you before,
I didn't kill Elwyn Jones.

I was at Ronnie Evans' place.
Yes, you said. Lambing.

We spoke to him. There you go.

According to Mr Evans,
you were gone by 5am.

According to your wife,
you were home just before eight.

Where were you for those
three hours, Mr Edwards?

Where were you?

Nowhere.

I sat in my car.

I couldn't go back to the house.

Since my son was killed...

..going home is...

I couldn't...

Are you holding him?

He has motive, opportunity
and no alibi.

We're going up to the chapel to see
what else people have to say.

Mathias.

How's your head?

Iwan.

Now you know what it's like
to lose everything.

Where are you? Did you enjoy your
little conversation last night?

Do you think he's your friend?

Do you think you can trust him?

Who? Prosser.

Iwan, this has got to stop.
You've got to come in.

It's too late for that.

Why was Trystan so sure that
the minister was having an affair

with Lyn Edwards' wife?

Why say that to us
if it wasn't true?

Tom? Mm? What do you think?

I don't know.

♪ Arglwydd dyma fi

♪ Ar dy alwad di

♪ Canna f'enaid yn y gwaed

♪ A gaed ar Galfari. ♪

Where's the daughter?

I'm going.

Can I come in?

I expected to see you at the chapel.

Couldn't do it.

Act like he was a saint.

We know that he assaulted
your mother.

Was he ever violent towards you?

Just Mam.

He'd pray for hours after.

Apologising to his God.

He never apologised to Mam.

That must have been
very hard for you.

And for your brother.

Nothing we did was ever good enough.

Owain thought...

..training to be a minister,
following in his footsteps,

would make Dad happy.

And did it?

Nothing made him happy.

Is it true that you've
arrested Lyn Edwards?

Mm-hmm, yes.

You think you know someone...

Trystan!

Any sign of the suspect?

'No, nothing yet.
We're still searching the area.'

He was making a go of it.

Trying to get his life together
after the mess he'd made of it.

After the mess we all made of it.

He never knew his real father.

His mother's boyfriend used him
as a punchbag.

And my daughter...

..she never stuck up for him.

In her own way, she did her best.

But she was never a natural mother.

Some women aren't.

It's no wonder he ended up in that
unit. What chance did he have?

I should have done something
when he was young.

But I didn't want to interfere.

I should have done more.

What is it, Lloyd?

A witness has come forward.

Say they saw Lyn Edwards sitting
in his car up on the ridge.

His alibi stacks up, sir.

Release him. Yes, sir.

Your wife needs you, Lyn.

It may not feel like that
right now but

each other is all you have.

She needs God
more than she needs me.

No.

Hope is what she needs.

How can I give her hope?

When all I want to do is close
my eyes and never wake up.

Well, if you find the answer to
that one, will you let me know?

Everyone else who looked at
Elwyn Jones saw a man of God.

But maybe Trystan saw him
for what he really was.

But why kill him?
Trystan had no quarrel with him.

Maybe he didn't get paid on time.

OK.

Maybe...

..Trystan recognised
something in Elwyn.

It reminded him of his upbringing.

Like living with his
mother's boyfriend.

A violent, controlling hypocrite.

Sir, I've found something.

We found Trystan's laptop
during the search of his house.

No encryption.
I got straight into his e-mails.

Look who they're from.

Beca Jones.

They know each other? Intimately.

This is one of the last e-mails
Beca sent to Trystan

before her father's death.

"I hate him. I wish he was dead."

Look at this.
After Beca's father was found dead,

Trystan sent 17 e-mails
without reply.

He sent this one
yesterday afternoon.

"The police have been here.
I didn't tell them anything.

"I didn't tell them about us."

And then he gets one back.

"You think you've fixed everything.
You've ruined everything.

"There is no us."

I need you to tell me everything
you know about Trystan.

Would you rather if we spoke alone?

So, you and Trystan,
how did it start?

I saw him at the chapel.

Cutting the grass, doing odd jobs
for my father.

One day he asked me my name
and we stated talking.

I liked him.

He listened to me.

Was he your first boyfriend?

It was fun at first. I...

I felt sorry for him.

Nobody ever gave him a chance
but he was trying really hard.

Then one night,
we were up on the hill.

He gave me some beer.
I must have had too much.

I got upset. I told him things
I shouldn't have.

I told him about my father.

I had to tell somebody, Mam.

I couldn't stand seeing
what he did to you

and you just saying nothing and just
hiding it and putting up with it.

He didn't mean it, Beca.

Your dad was suffering.
He hit you, Mam.

And...I told Trystan.

I told Trystan the truth.

And how did he react
when you told him?

He was angry. Angry enough
to do something about it?

He loves me. Is that why you haven't
answered any of his e-mails?

Are you scared of him?

Beca, it's like you said.

You think you know people.

Trystan.

Trystan, wait.

If you run away now...

..you'll be running your whole life.

Yeah?

He's a good boy.

Give him a chance. Please.

None of us get to choose
our parents, do we?

It's the luck of the draw.

So, it must have been hard for you
after the upbringing you had,

knowing what Beca was going through.

I know what you're trying to say.

And it's not true.

After we spoke to you yesterday
about the minister's death

you sent her an e-mail, didn't you?

"The police were here.
I didn't tell them anything.

"I didn't tell them about us."

When we spoke to you yesterday,
why didn't you tell us
about your relationship with her?

I knew it wouldn't look good.
Why? Because you've got a record?

I was just trying to keep her
out of trouble.

Beca responded to your e-mail,
didn't she?

"There is no us.

"You think you fixed things but you
ruined my life. You ruined it all.

"Stay away from me."

You killed him, didn't you?

That's why you went round
to the house last night.

I went there to talk.
To tell her you'd had enough.

That you couldn't let him hurt her
any more and that's why you killed
him. No. Then why did you run?

Because people like me
always get the blame!

I didn't kill anyone.

They're better off without him.

Yeah, well, you don't get
to decide that.

At least Beca can be
who she wants now

and her brother can get on
with his life!

What do you mean?

Elwyn told him to quit college.

Get a job.

When?

A couple of weeks ago.

He spent his whole life trying to
please that man.

At least he's done with that now.

We need to talk to Owain. What?
His son, Owain.

Turns out he and his father
weren't on the same page after all.

You haven't been entirely honest
with us, Owain.

I told you everything
you wanted to know.

Everything except the fact
that your father

was making you give up your studies.

He didn't want you to go to college.
He wanted you to get a job.

Who told him that?
I didn't say anything.

Is it true?! Money was tight.
It was only fair.

This has nothing to do
with Elwyn's death.

A man who blighted your childhood.
No. A violent man of the cloth.

That must have made you
question your faith. No.

And then he tried to destroy
your future. That's not true!

You never meant to kill him
but you were so angry with him...

You put up with so
much, so come on, tell the truth.

All of you, tell the truth. Tell
the truth, Owain! Tell the truth!

I did it.

I killed him.

Mam?

I thought I was lucky.

That I'd married a good man.

I should have walked away
the first time he hit me.

It's easy to say, isn't it?
Until it happens to you.

I felt so ashamed.

I pretended it didn't happen.

And then the more it happened,
the more ashamed I felt.

Did your husband ever harm
the children? Not physically, no.

But his behaviour, it affected them.

I just wanted their future
to be different.

I wanted them to be happy.

But he wouldn't even allow that.

On the day that he was murdered,

what happened?

It was dark, still early.

He'd been down there all night,
in his chair.

I went down there to talk to him.

To reason with him.

I begged him not to do this
to Owain.

But he wouldn't listen.

He got up

and he walked away.

He said there was nothing more
to discuss.

I went after him.

I was so angry.

I hit him.

How?

With a hammer.

He fell.

And he was gone.

And then what?

I tidied the place up...

..wiped down the hammer...

..and I went back to the house.

Beca got up for breakfast,
I waved her to school

and then I shouted at Owain to tell
him I was going down to the chapel

and then I came back
and I told him I'd found Elwyn

and that's when I called you.

I killed him
because I love my children.

Do you buy that?

You saw the report.

There are no prints on that hammer,
just like she said.

What is it, Lloyd?

There's someone here to see you.

We thought we'd come and talk to you
about what's likely to happen next.

She's going to jail, we know that.

Can we come in and talk to you
about it? Is Owain here?

He's gone to the chapel.

Owain?

Shit.

'I saw him walking up
from the chapel...

'..and I just knew
there was something wrong.

'He came in the kitchen.

'I saw the blood on his clothes.

'He was shaking and...

'..sweating.'

So, I put him in the shower.

Told him to stay in his room.

And then I went down to
the chapel

and I found him.

The night before, Elwyn was drunk.

He was so drunk.

Owain just wanted to talk to him
about staying in college...

..but he wouldn't talk to him.

He wouldn't even look at him.

Owain was heartbroken.

His father was taking away
his whole world.

Maybe Owain did it just to
protect you. He did.

When all we ever want to do
is to protect our children.

That's what I thought I was doing.

Sorry, Lloyd.

I'll do this. You go home.

Go on.

Sir.

What are you doing?

Iwan Thomas' cousin,
Gareth Thomas.

Did you speak to him?

But you went up there, right?
You searched his house?

I'm waiting for a warrant.

Good.

Any news on Iwan?

Sir, you know I can't talk
to you about any of this.

But if you've got any information...

..if you've heard anything...

..then you should tell me.

DS Owens.

Where is he? Who?

Iwan!

I don't know anything.

Do you know who I am?

Of course I do.

When you see him, you tell him
that I'm looking for him, OK?
