HASTINGS: He did not slip

and fall down three flights
of stairs by accident.

And you were the only person who
knew he was there, Mr Huntley.

You're linked to the near-death
of an anticorruption detective

and you were hanging around
outside a crime scene.

HASTINGS: Is there any chance
that this could be Nick Huntley?

I'm not sure if he's the one
who attacked me or...

Maybe I'm remembering
an old case. I'm sorry, sir.

TIM: What have you got
against Michael Farmer,

except him being retarded enough
for you to frame?

That sample, KRG-13,
was tampered with.

HUNTLEY: He was
one of our own.

I'm gonna get on with finding
the bastard who did this.

Hana Reznikova
was the last person

known to have had contact
with the victim.

Hana Reznikova,
I am arresting you

in connection with
the murder of Timothy Ifield.

- You cut yourself?
- It's fine.

I just caught it
on some brickwork.

We're going to take a swab.

- Is that necessary?
- You should see a specialist.

I have the authority to charge
you with the following offences,

namely for the murder of
Baswinder Kaur,

the murder
of Leonie Collersdale,

the kidnapping and attempted
murder of Hana Reznikova.

Michael, the charges against you
are going to be hard to fight.

Or we can consider the best way

to reduce the overall time
you end up serving in prison.

He'd change his story
if he thought it'd help.

The FI says whatever

the investigating police officer
wants to hear?

You're putting words
in my mouth.

Say that again, DC Desford.

Is DS Flynn an undercover
AC-12 officer?

- (Groans)
- You see the pattern here?

Sexism, undercover operations
and questionable evidence.

Oh, you should have seen
his face.

He had no idea where I was
getting the ammunition.

This is a signed authority from
Assistant Chief Constable Hilton

recusing AC-12
from your inquiry into me,

my team and the above offences.

- Ted.
- Sir.

There's an institutional failure
to admit error here, sir.

Actually, it's a wilful effort

to bury allegations of
wrongdoing and, to cap it all,

the only department that's
trying to get to the truth -

mine - is the one
that's been recused!

You're right, Ted.
There has been a failure.

To provide sufficient evidence
against Roz Huntley.

Plus, she's levelled
credible accusations

against your undercover officer
of entrapment,

of coaching witnesses, possibly
even of manipulating charges.

My officers conduct themselves
to the letter of the law, sir.

So you didn't have
a deeply corrupt officer

embedded in your department
for two years?

No-one regrets
more than me, sir,

not seeing through
Matthew Cottan's deception.

Cottan's dying declaration,

I want the full recording
handed over to me.

- Morning, Jan.
- Morning, sir.

Sir, my department operates
under the protection

of no reciprocity,
as well you know.

That part of the recording
was released

because it pertained
to court proceedings.

The rest was withheld, and will
continue to be withheld,

in case it alerts those officers

who are subject to
our ongoing lines of inquiry.

You've had a year
to pursue the claims

made in Cottan's
dying declaration.

Where are all the suspects, hm?

This alleged clandestine network
of corrupt police officers

in league with organised crime?

Arrests? None.
Charges? None.

Well, it's not without the want
of trying, sir, believe you me.

It's clear to me, sir,
that there are officers-

and possibly some senior
officers - still active,

who were aware of
and/or complicit with

Matthew Cottan's offences,
who were aware of

and/or complicit with
an institutional cover-up.

AC-12 is being met with
a conspiracy of silence.

We're not in on it.
We're trying to break it.

Failing to break it.

Roz Huntley's proved you're
an ineffectual organisation.

- A corrupt organisation.
- Sir, I must protest.

My guess is that we don't know

the half of
Matthew Cottan's activities.

The real reason you're keeping
that full recording secret

is because of the ammunition
it'll give AC-12's critics.

Untrue. Categorically untrue.

You can't say I didn't give you
a chance, Ted.

I'll be reporting to the DCC
and the Chief Constable

that AC-12 is more damaging
to the Police Service

than the officers you're meant
to be investigating.

(Laboured breathing)

Just hold your back straight.

Very good.

Keep your head up.

- Good.
- (He grunts)

You're doing great.
Take it nice and slowly.

That's it.
Keep the back straight.

- Keep it going.
- I'm all right.

DOCTOR: Your injuries were
extremely serious.

The X-rays showed
that we've done a good job

with your legs and pelvis,

but your MRI showed
that there's still significant

swelling at the site
of your vertebral fracture.

I'll be walking, though?

At this stage,
it's not possible

to rule out
long-term mobility problems.

I wish we could be
more positive.

(Softly) Thank you.

DS Arnott's attacker.

Thing is, boss, the lab's put
the images through the software

and there's a decent chance
Arnott's attacker

is the same person captured
in the original sighting,

the night of Leonie
Collersdale's disappearance.

Thanks, Neil.

Well, it's possible.
Of course it is.

But it calls into question
Michael Farmer's guilt.

And what we're hearing is
that Farmer's on the verge

of changing his plea to guilty.

And regarding Timothy Ifield's
murder, still the only person

we can actually place at
Tim's murder is Hana Reznikova.

Thank you, everyone.

Sarge?

The boss is so keen to pin
Tim's murder on Hana...

..whilst Balaclava Man's
still out there.

You know AC-12 interviewed
her husband over Arnott's fall.

And who's seen in the vicinity?

Balaclava Man.

(Beeps)

Sir.

Remain at attention.

DS Fleming here,
someone blew her cover.

Thanks to them,
Huntley has entrapped me

into discrediting
the investigation.

Now, I told you, fella,
if ever there was a leak,

we'd know it was you.

- Do you have any evidence?
- You've got a bloody nerve.

See, undercover officers
have a lifespan.

There comes a time when they've
been deployed once too often.

They get recognised
or lose their touch.

She knew stuff about my personal
life. She got that from someone.

How would I know anything
about your personal life?

Wasn't me, sir.

Get out! Get out of my sight.

Go on!

You lot treat everyone
like mugs.

- Who's the mug now?
- Get out!

(He whispers) Jesus Christ.

It's worse than I thought, sir.

How?

They're not scared of us
any more.

Not only that.
Buckells is right.

Fat chance he knew anything
about my personal life.

What?

Somebody in here?

No. Never.

Jamie...

(Phone rings)

Polk Avenue, Major Violent
Crime Unit, PC Jatri.

Could you hold the line, please?

What is it?

A woman's remains
have been found.

DCI Huntley.

- Hi, Roz.
- So what have we got so far?

Body parts wrapped in
plastic bin liners.

We're only a quarter of a mile
away from where the body parts

of Leonie Collersdale
were found.

So this must be the rest of her.
Right?

Except these remains are nowhere
near as decomposed as Leonie's.

The wrapping in bin liners
is also a contrasting feature.

Most likely,
this is someone else.

So far, we appear to have
a leg split in two sections

and an arm
similarly disarticulated.

Possibly more to come
as we extend the dig.

The first priority
is to get an ID.

Sure.

Less decomposition.
More recent.

And how long has Michael Farmer
been in custody?

(Camera clicks)

Sir, someone to see you, in your
office with Kate. If that's OK?

Yeah. Who?

He wanted
to introduce himself, sir.

Oh, right.

(Phone rings)

Steve!

I hope you'll forgive me
if I don't get up, sir.

(Chuckles)
It's great to see you,

but you really shouldn't have
put yourself out like this.

This isn't a social call, sir.
I'm returning to work.

I've tried to tell him
it's too soon, sir.

Look, Occupational Health
have given me the all-clear

to return to restricted duties.
This is just a precaution, sir.

The doctors have said
I'll make a full recovery.

Great.

Well, I can't say
as I'm not glad to see you.

There's been a few developments
since you've been away.

I've brought him
up to speed, sir.

Roz Huntley can't be allowed
to mislead the investigation.

ACC Hilton never said anything
about not investigating

Tim Ifield's murder or Nick
Huntley's movements that night.

If Nick Huntley's involved,
we'll be the ones to catch him.

And if he's involved, you can
bet Roz Huntley is, too.

Well, what are yous waiting on,
then, the No.19 bus?

Sir.

- Take your time, Nick.
- The 25th...

Erm...

Yes.

I was at a work function
in Northampton that evening.

SOLICITOR: Yeah.

And I bet there are loads of
witnesses to corroborate that?

- Yes.
- Great. Thanks.

I hope that's covered.
Anything else?

Do you have any of
your officers' DNA on...

You all right?
Do you want a tea or coffee?

Er, no, I'm fine.
Thanks for asking.

If you need anything,
just call me on the mobile.

Save you having to...you know.

Kate, Nick Huntley's alibi,
has someone checked that out?

No, while you was away,

we stopped being capable of
basic police work.

Sorry.

Actually, with all the files
being recalled,

it could have fallen through
the cracks, I'll double-check.

Cheers. I appreciate it.

There's no evidence
he's the man who attacked you.

I know.

OK.

Nick Huntley claimed, via
his solicitor, that he attended

the legal conference's
closing drinks reception

and didn't leave
until around 8pm.

However, no records were kept
of attendance at the function.

So there's no independent
corroboration

of Nick Huntley's whereabouts
at that time.

But...

ANPR detected the car
registered to Nick Huntley

on the M6 at 18:15.

He's been lying.

And the motorways were clear
that evening.

He had plenty of time
to carry out the offence.

Great. Great. Cheers, Maneet.

- That's great. Thanks, Maneet.
- Great work.

So he was under pressure
to come up with an alibi

and he took a risk.
All we've got, though,

is he's been caught out
in a lie.

Cheers, Jamie, we've got this.

Wasn't his fault the Roz Huntley
interview went pear-shaped.

The gaffer brought him in
while I was undercover.

I'm back now.
And so are you.

I need to get ready for work.

Have you been to the doctor?

Yes, and I'm fine.

It's starting to stink,
you know.

That thing on your wrist.

"That thing" is just a graze.
And it's fine.

(Door closes)

(Low chatter)

Jamie, sorry,
just had a message from IT.

We need to reset usernames
and passwords. Again.

Yeah, sure.

(Phone buzzes)

The FC's on her way down.

Looks like she's got the first
results on the new remains.

Good. Just give me a minute.

All right, boss.

(Door closes)

Everyone, in the incident room.

(Door closes)

- Go ahead, Rupal.
- Thank you, DCI Huntley.

Forensic report
regarding human remains

detected on the Queen's Chase
woodland on the 23rd April.

The remains have been examined
by the pathologist and...

(Voice fades)

..and lower limbs and the pelvic
area of an adult female

aged approximately
20 to 25 years.

DNA was harvested
from the remains and matched

to control samples
relating to...

..Leonie Collersdale.

- It's Leonie?
- Yeah.

Well, that's...
That's great news. Thank you.

This is not a new victim.

So, another family doesn't have
to deal with a terrible tragedy.

And also we do not need
to consider another suspect.

OK. Thanks.

Sorry, boss. Rupal, a question.
At the crime scene,

you said the degree of
decomposition was different

from the rest of
Leonie's body parts.

DS Twyler's correct.

The pathologist found evidence
of deep-freezing of the remains.

The body parts must have been
kept in cold storage

- before being buried.
- Were there other differences?

Yes, the remains were wrapped
in paper

and then sealed inside of
plastic bin liners.

We've taken samples
and studies are ongoing

to see if these materials
can provide any leads

on who might have handled them
or where.

OK. Thank you.

Thanks, everyone.

Michael Farmer's legal team
have made an application

to change his plea to guilty.

For Christ's sake.

From his viewpoint, the evidence
just keeps stacking up.

I know. His solicitor
must have told him

to cut his losses and go for
a reduced sentence.

But one of you
have got to visit that prison

and tell Michael Farmer
that we are fighting his corner.

Sorry, after everything
that's happened,

why would Farmer trust a word
either of us say?

The word of any police officer.

We're just waiting on
your solicitor.

You know, Michael,
there are other solicitors.

Better ones.

The first time...

about Jade...

I liked him.

Your solicitor
for your first conviction?

OK. Erm...

He may not be the best person,
but I can check him out for you,

if you'd like to see him.

(Door opens)

Sorry. Sorry.

Michael, I've arranged for you
to have a visitor.

(Door opens)

Nana!

Hello, Michael.
It's lovely to see you.

I've missed you, Nana.

SOLICITOR: Michael,
I'll see you after.

I'll leave you all to catch up.

How are you managing, Michael?

It's horrible in here, Nana.

I've always cared for you.

That won't change,
no matter what.

You can tell me the truth.

You can tell me
and I won't stop loving you.

I know.

Did you do it, Michael?

Did you?

No, Nana.

No.

Then tell the truth, Michael.

Don't say you're guilty
if you're not.

OK, Nana.

Say it, Michael.

Not guilty, Nana.

- Not guilty.
- Oh...

(Phone buzzes)

PC Jatri.

(Beeps)

Roz, this is Dr Patel
from Starbrook Road Surgery.

I need you to call me back
urgently regarding the swab

I took from the wound
on your arm.

Please go straight to
your nearest A&E...

I'm sorry to interrupt, ma'am.

The application from Michael
Farmer hasn't gone to court.

What's the delay?

They're saying he's not planning
to change to a guilty plea.

- OK. Thanks, Farida.
- Ma'am.

(Door closes)

Framing Michael Farmer
couldn't have been random.

It was no coincidence

Michael had been on
the sex offenders' register.

A loner with no-one
to provide an alibi,

who follows a predictable
routine, out every night

to visit his grandma,
then the night shift.

But we went through the records.
Roz Huntley never had

anything to do with
Michael's prior conviction.

She never worked
with anyone who did.

So how could she
have picked Michael?

You know what they're gonna say.

Because we couldn't pin
your fall on Nick Huntley,

we're going after the pair of
them for summat else.

Yeah.

- Thanks, mate.
- All right.

- Getting good at this.
- Cheers.

- I'll come up.
- No. You're all right.

My building's got a lift.

- You sure?
- Yeah. I'm fine.

- Good night, Kate.
- Good night, Steve.

Sarge, you asked me to track
down Michael Farmer's solicitor

from his conviction
when he was 16.

Yeah, for whatever reason,
Michael seemed to like him.

You'll never guess who it was.

- Kate.
- Yeah?

What did I say about there being
no such thing as coincidence?

Mr Lakewell, you're
Nick Huntley's solicitor.

- Is that correct?
- No.

I just provided him with a bit
of legal advice, as a favour.

How would you describe your
relationship with Nick Huntley?

We were at law school together,
old mates.

- You socialised?
- Yes.

Your wives socialised with you?

I'm divorced,
but, yes, we mix socially.

What's behind
this line of inquiry?

Do you know the name
Jade Hopkirk?

Nope. Doesn't ring a bell.

Mr Lakewell denies
knowing Jade Hopkirk.

Detective attempts rudimentary
interview technique

on seasoned criminal solicitor.

Makes a bit of a tit of herself.

We're looking into who knew
about Michael Farmer's past,

who might have considered him
a likely suspect

for offences
against young women.

Jade Hopkirk was
the alleged victim

when Michael Farmer was
convicted of rape in 2009.

Yes, of course. Now I recall
exactly who you mean.

(Clears throat)
I represented Michael.

He pleaded guilty.

He had sex with a 15-year-old
girl without her consent.

That's rape. He pleaded guilty
because he was guilty.

Was it your idea
not to test that out on a jury?

What went on between myself
and my client is privileged.

So you never discussed the case
with Nick Huntley?

Or Roz Huntley?

Exactly.

As you'll recall, sir,
at his interview with AC-12,

Mr Huntley declined
to answer questions

regarding his whereabouts

for parts of the evening
of the 18th of March,

the night of
Timothy Ifield's murder.

Can you vouch
for his whereabouts?

Listen, Ironside,

you've got no evidence against
Nick, so...I don't have to.

Fine.

Come on, Steve.

(Pills rattle)

(Phone buzzes)

Jimmy?

I've just had AC-12 turn up,

asking questions
about Nick's whereabouts

on the night of
Timothy Ifield's murder.

What did you tell them?

Nothing, obviously. I thought
you and Nick should know.

Good. Thank you, Jimmy.

And no need to tell Nick.
I'll let him know.

I've already sent him
a voicemail.

Should I not have?

No, that's fine.

Thanks. Thanks again, Jimmy.

(Phone rings)

You've reached
the personal voicemail

of Assistant Chief Constable
Derek Hilton.

You said AC-12 were finished.

You said their witch hunt
was finished,

but they're still after me.

My husband, his solicitor - any
backdoor route they can find.

You don't know what this is
doing to my marriage.

Well done.

I'm finished.

I feel drained, sir.

It's not long till the start of
my maternity leave.

I see.

Things are beginning to get
on top of me.

The timing couldn't be worse.

I really need all my best
people, you know.

The last thing I want to do is
let you and the department down.

I see.
Well...if your mind's made up,

I wish you all the best,
darling.

- Thank you, sir.
- Yeah.

(Opens door)

I'd appreciate it if you don't
say too much to the team.

I don't want
anyone making a fuss.

All right.

(Door closes)

NICK: Listen, thanks for
meeting me outside the office.

JIMMY: Yes. Any time, mate.

Oh, and thank you
for the voicemail last night.

I don't know where AC-12
are going with this,

but I had to let you
and Roz know.

Did you two get a chance
to talk it through last night?

Actually, no.

Oh?

No. This is why I wanted to
meet you outside the office.

Me and Roz...

It's a bit messed up right now.

It's a lot messed up.

(Sighs)

I've been there, the divorce.
Sorry to hear that, mate.

It's more than that.

Erm...

Roz has been lying to me

about where she was
when Tim Ifield was killed.

She has this...this wound
on her arm from the same night.

I've got tangible concerns...

..that she's involved
in a serious crime.

(Sighs) My God.

I'm at my wits' end, mate.

God, of course.
Er... I'm really sorry.

If you want me to,
I can sort it.

Voluntary interview. Anonymity.
Independent police station.

Immunity.

If - a big "if"-
you want me to.

That was the solicitor talking.
As your friend, I'd warn you,

that even if your concerns
turn out to be baseless...

this could mean
the end of your marriage.

The end of your family.

No happy ending.

(Nick stifles sobs)

I'm sorry.

- (Knocks)
HASTINGS: Come in.

Ah, Kate.

Sir, this is an IT report.

I asked them to detail
any searches or downloads

of any sensitive case material
carried out by AC-12 staff

in relation to
undercover operations

in the last two weeks.

If you go to the entry on page
6, sir, I found this, instead.

I'm very sorry, sir.

No, no, no. No, you did
the right thing. Absolutely.

- Thank you, Kate. Thank you.
- Sir.

DC Desford.

- Sir?
- Yeah.

Come in. Shut the door.

Sir.

(Door closes)

Now, tell me, for what reason
have you been...

.. accessing highly sensitive
AC-12 files,

namely DI Matthew Cottan's
dying declaration?

I haven't, sir.

No?

No, sir.
No, this wasn't me, sir.

For years,

the security in this department
has been watertight, fella.

Absolutely watertight.

Then you come along. Suddenly,
we're leaking like a colander.

I know what this is about.

First, I'm scapegoated over
the Huntley interview, now this.

I could fight this...

but I don't want to be
somewhere I'm not wanted.

So I'll take a transfer, sir.

It's definitely
the smartest move right now.

And I hope you'll approve
my request, sir,

so I won't need
to lodge a complaint.

Are you threatening me?

No. I have been treated
unfairly, sir.

And, just for the record,

I had absolutely nothing to do
with any security breach.

(Knock at door)

Sorry, I didn't mean
to startle you.

No. I was miles away.
Come on in.

I thought you should
see this first.

The material wrapped round
the body parts was newspaper.

- Mm-hm.
- Some fragments...

survived sufficiently
for the print to be legible.

We were able to run sections
of text through a search engine

to find matches
with online editions.

All were nationals, so there's
no localising information.

However...

the dates are significant.

Some text related to
news reports

that only went to press
at the end of March.

As you know, Michael Farmer
was remanded in custody

and Tim Ifield was already dead.

Right.

Shall we go through all this
in a team briefing?

We've got something else on
just now.

Will you leave it with me?

Sure, no problem.

Let me know if there's
anything else I can do.

Right.

(Winces)

(Coughs)

NICK: Roz?

- (Knocking)
- Are you OK?

Nick?

(She groans)

NICK: (Echoing)
Lying on a beach?

Lying on a beach? Nick...

Lying bitch.

Hi, Rupal.

Anything I can help you with?

- Roz not in?
- Not seen her yet.

Well, I'm only around
this morning.

I didn't want to miss
the team briefing.

- What team briefing?
- About the new findings.

Leonie Collersdale's remains
having been disposed of

after Michael Farmer
was remanded.

I see.

(Phone rings)

(Phone continues ringing)

Neil?

I've got one thing to say...
and we don't ever meet again.

And no-one...no-one,
ever hears my name.

Sorry to call you back in
so late, sir.

I've got a source
at Polk Avenue.

Now we're sucking diesel.
Go on.

OK, so...
he or she insists on anonymity.

They won't go on record or
cooperate with any inquiry.

What they did say is they've
received new forensic evidence.

Leonie's remains were buried
after Farmer was arrested.

There's no way Hilton can still
back Huntley after this.

Yeah.

And, erm, what else do we know
about these new forensics, Kate?

Well, it appears they've been
held in cold storage,

probably a deep freeze, for some
time before being buried.

But this new evidence gives us
a reason to reopen the inquiry

and get the charges against
Michael Farmer dropped.

Steve? Steve, are you OK?

Body parts held in cold storage.

Jackie Laverty,
a property developer

with ties to organised crime,
last seen 2012.

Yeah. The piece of work that
Tony Gates was hanging out with.

According to Gates, Jackie's
body was kept in cold storage,

with incriminating DNA, a means
of blackmailing an officer

into manipulating
criminal investigations.

Exactly what's been done with
Leonie Collersdale's body.

- You think they're connected?
- Well, there's more, sir.

The man who attacked me,
he was wearing a balaclava

and he struck me over the head
with a baseball bat.

I wasn't sure if that was
a real memory

or I was confused
with an old case-

the men involved
with Jackie Laverty's murder.

If you remember,
I was attacked by some of them.

They wore balaclavas
and they used baseball bats.

Tony Gates, the only witness
to Jackie Laverty's murder,

told me men wearing balaclavas
broke into Jackie's house

and knocked him out cold
with a baseball bat.

The MO's the same. It raises
the question as to whether

these organised criminals
are involved in the murders

or are manipulating
the investigation somehow.

Whether they're protecting
guilty parties...

That's what we don't know.

Anyway, thanks, Steve, and...

Kate, you'd better get home
and get some kip.

Look, wait, sir.

Jackie's disappearance,

this was our case
and it remains unsolved.

We've got every right
to reopen it.

And, as they may be connected,
that might give us leeway

to examine the forensics
on Leonie Collersdale's body.

It's your call, sir. Hilton may
use this to shut us down.

He may.

And if we go down...

..we go down fighting.

- Sir.
- Sir.

(Blood-pressure cuff inflating)

(Air hisses)

(Groans softly)

What are you doing?

Just making sure
everything's as it should be.

Why am I here?

Your husband wants to
explain everything.

I'll be back with
an antibiotic injection.

- How are you feeling?
- (Groans)

What's going on?

Roz, they had to operate.

I just want to go home.

Hey, listen, calm down.
You're gonna hurt yourself, Roz.

Just listen to me.

The wound was very deep.

The tissue...was dead

and the infection had gotten
into your bloodstream.

They call it "septic shock".

If they didn't operate,
you could have died.

There was no choice.

No...

(Gasps) Oh, no!

Ssh, ssh, ssh.

- No!
- Hey, hey, hey.

- (Gasps)
- Ssh, ssh, ssh.

Why didn't you stop them?

They had to operate,
to save your life, Roz.

Why didn't you stop them?

She's still very woozy,
poor thing.

NURSE: It's a lot to take in.
No wonder.

(Roz moans softly)

- Steve.
- Oh, cheers.

Jesus Christ.

Kate. Kate!

Our independent
forensic scientist confirmed

the second set of body parts
relating to Leonie Collersdale

shows cellular
freeze-thaw damage,

similar to what we believe was
done to Jackie Laverty's body,

and also that the newspaper
found wrapping the body parts

has been dated to after
Michael Farmer was remanded

and Tim Ifield was killed.

Great. That's in the bag.

Confirmation.

But what's even more
significant, sir,

is he was also able
to examine the deposit

of Timothy Ifield's blood
supposedly detected

on the first set of Leonie
Collersdale's remains.

An item of evidence we've not
had direct access to before now.

And?

That blood deposit's
contaminated

with the same high-density
polythene fibres

from a forensic oversuit as the
blood found at Ifield's flat.

Despite the samples being
obtained weeks apart

by different investigators.

Mother of God.
They've both been falsified.

In my view, sir,
there's a very real possibility

Roz has been misleading the
inquiry to protect her husband.

Right. Well, to hell with ACC
Hilton. This is our vindication.

This puts us back in business.

Steve, you run things from here.
Kate, take a couple of uniforms.

Get out and pick up
Roz and Nick Huntley.

Diane, get me a car out front
immediately.

Everyone, we need to find
Nick and Roz Huntley, now.

Get on the phones.

Get me Polk Avenue Station.

(Phone rings)

Steve?

Roz Huntley
hasn't reported for work.

She was admitted to
City General two nights ago.

What's wrong with her?

They won't disclose the reason
for her admission.

Patient confidentiality.

Received.

City General Hospital.

(Siren wails)

Mr Huntley.

Where's my wife?

She discharged herself.

Against medical advice.

- But why didn't you stop her?
- We did our best.

She waited for antibiotics
and painkillers.

You should have called me.

Mrs Huntley was very clear
that you shouldn't be called.

Keep the change. Thanks.

You must be in a lot of pain.

I won't lie.

Come on.

Let's get you home
to bed, ma'am.

No, just fill me in
on everything.

Tell me.

This is...strictly off
the record, ma'am.

I don't want to get anyone
in any trouble.

That's OK. Tell me.

A solicitor has requested
an appointment

for his anonymous client
to give a voluntary interview

to an independent team
of detectives.

What about?

The murder of Timothy Ifield.

Apparently, the solicitor is
seeking immunity

for whatever his client's going
to disclose.

Who's the solicitor?

James Lakewell.

Drive.

(Siren wails)

(Phone rings)

Fleming.

I got through to the ward.
Huntley's discharged herself.

Nick Huntley came looking
for her and left separately.

The nurse reckoned he was going
to their home address.

Received.

Right. Turn around.
Go, go! I'll direct you.

Roz?

Roz?

(He puts keys down)

Hi, Nick.

Roz, come on.

Let's be sensible.
Let's get you back to hospital.

- Come on.
- Not going anywhere with you.

Right, OK.
Where are the kids?

They're fine.

- Where are the kids?
- It's being taken care of.

Roz, you're worrying me.

You don't have a right to know
where they are.

We're getting a divorce.

Look, Roz, OK,

you're angry and you're upset,
and I get that and...

We're gonna talk about this
when you're feeling better.

But right now I just need
to know that the kids are safe.

Of course they're safe.

They're walking round
to Claire's.

Right.

I'm just gonna call them.

Don't think that you stand
a chance of gaining custody.

Amputating my hand
without my consent?

That's grievous bodily harm.

Look, Roz, it wasn't me.

It was the surgeons.

You were gonna lose
more than your hand.

You were gonna lose your arm
or your life.

You did this to me...because
you thought I'd had an affair.

No. You did this to yourself.

All your lies.

And it was you,
outside the bathroom.

You were the one
calling me a lying bitch.

And you think doing this to me
makes me less?

Means no man
will ever look at me?

Is this my punishment
for being "a lying bitch"?

- (Puts phone down)
- You've lied so much, Roz.

I've lost track of the truth.

You always said that you grazed
your hand on some brickwork.

The infection they found
was MRSA.

That's why it was so serious.

And it could never have happened

the way that you said
that it did.

I can just about live with you
covering up your infidelity.

I can't live with you
covering up a murder.

Is that what you're gonna say
to the detectives

at Fourth Street Station?

How did...
How did you know about that?

All this to punish me.

- Well, now it's your turn.
- What?

You lied about where you were

when Leonie Collersdale
disappeared.

You were at the building
when Steve Arnott was attacked.

I explained all of that.

And you were at the crime scene
the night Ifield was murdered.

Outside!

The only male suspect to be
placed at the crime scene.

- No. No, wait. No.
- And you've lied about it

to every officer
you've spoken to.

- To protect you!
- No.

- To protect yourself.
- What are you talking about?

Nicholas Huntley,
I'm arresting you on suspicion

of the murder of Timothy Ifield.

- You do not have to say...
- This is insane.

You do not have to say
anything...

- I'm gonna get the kids.
- ..but it may harm your defence

if you do not mention
when questioned

something you later rely on
in court.

Anything you do say
may be used in evidence.

Mr Huntley,
please don't make this

any harder than it is already.

- She's lying. She's lying.
- Sir, please, just calm down.

Let us take you to the station.

- No! No!
- Cuff him.

Calm down, sir.

You're hurting me!

Well, stop resisting.

- You're breaking my arm!
- Stop resisting!

Polk Avenue Police.
Please move along!

Ma'am, it's done.

Sorry, ma'am.

Do you want a minute with him?

Just take him.

There was no need to make
a scene. Look at your poor wife.

I'm not saying anything
until I speak to my solicitor.

KATE: What's going on?
- It's Jimmy Lakewell. L-A-K...

- What's going on?
- All under control. All sorted.

Oh, a delegation.
I'm honoured.

My two investigators, sir.
DS Arnott and DS Fleming.

I cannot believe I failed
to make myself crystal clear.

AC-12 is recused
from the Huntley case.

Yet you still attempted
to make arrests.

Yes, sir, but some new evidence
has come to light,

which we think is vitally
important to this inquiry.

DS Fleming.

We've learnt Mr Huntley shares
a solicitor with Michael Farmer

and it's possible Mr Huntley
was aware of Michael Farmer's

prior sexual offences
via this relationship.

- Right.
- We also found

that a deposit, supposedly of
Tim Ifield's blood,

found at his flat,
was contaminated with fibres

from a forensic investigator's
oversuit.

The blood deposit supposedly
found on Leonie Collersdale's

body was contaminated
in exactly the same way.

Clear indication of evidence
tampering, sir, pure and simple.

Our interpretation is someone
planted Timothy Ifield's blood

on Leonie Collersdale's body

in order to falsely implicate
Tim in her murder.

Tim was onto a conspiracy, sir,
the framing of Michael Farmer

to protect the real murderer.

The person with the opportunity
and means to frame

both Michael Farmer and Timothy
Ifield is DCI Roz Huntley.

By arresting him, she's acting
as if she's been the one to ID

her husband as the murderer,
while in reality,

she's been protecting him
all this time.

She's had surgery on her arm.
No-one knew she had a problem

and she's refusing access
to her medical records.

So we've had to seek
a court order.

Naturally, sir, we'd like to
put things right straightaway.

We'd like to arrest her
on suspicion

of perverting
the course of justice.

But Leonie Collersdale's
and Tim Ifield's murders

are DCI Huntley's cases

and, to reiterate,

you've been expressly forbidden
from looking into them.

Yes, sir, but my team were
investigating another case

and our inquiries led us
unexpectedly to these findings,

which, sir, put a completely new
complexion on everything.

What other case?

That would be the disappearance
of Jackie Laverty, sir.

A property developer
not seen since 2012.

HASTINGS: Something
troubling you, sir?

Er...

You'll recall I was
station chief at that time.

It was a difficult experience
for us all.

Sir.

Well, this is great work,
all of you. Great work.

But Roz Huntley had you recused
and you accused Nick Huntley

of involvement
in DS Arnott's injuries.

I can't risk your investigation

being tainted by
accusations of bias.

In my view, your files
should be handed over

to a new, more impartial,
authority and they can decide

the best way to take
these inquiries forward.

Sir, I must protest in
the strongest possible terms.

Leave us.

Very well.

(Keypad beeps)

(Safe unlocks)

MAN: The paramedics are here.
KATE: Just give me a second!

Stay with me.
There's a network of corrupt

police officers doing the
bidding of organised crime.

This is an unsustainable
breach of protocol, sir.

KATE:..that's who we want,

the most senior officer
in this corrupt network.

Who is the top dog, Dot?

- The Caddy.
- No, you're The Caddy.

We know that. Come on, Dot.

- Told.
- Told?

You told someone?

Someone very senior?

- Promo...
- A promotion?

Someone promoted you?

Who? Come on, Dot.

Come in. He can't talk.

Blink twice with
the first letter of his name.

A... B...

C...D...

E...F...

G...H...

I... H?

His name begins with H. Right.

PARAMEDIC: That's it, out of
the way! I'll start bagging.

Respiratory arrest.

MAN: We're losing him.

(Stops video)

I see why you didn't want
anyone sharing...

..H.

Sir, there are currently eight
officers serving above the rank

of inspector whose surnames
begin with an H.

Including yourself, sir.

Others, if you consider those
who have relocated or retired.

There's only one who was Matthew
Cottan's commanding officer

for two years, who recruited him

and turned a blind eye
to his offending.

Yes, I recruited him,
but I did not promote him.

Superintendent Hastings,

you will be served
with a Regulation 15 notice.

You will have ten working days
to answer these allegations,

and should the review board

remain unsatisfied
with your answers...

..you will face
a disciplinary hearing.

That is all.

Dismissed.

Sir.

(Door opens and closes)

(Puts handbrake on)

I'm coming up.

No. There's no need, honestly.
I'm fine.

No, no. I just want to make sure
you're doing all right.

I didn't want
Occupational Health to know.

If I can't even look after
myself, how can I do my job?

Steve, why don't you just...

just take a few weeks off,
till you're stronger?

Michael Farmer
doesn't have weeks.

It's his whole future
on the line.

I'll put the kettle on.

You are gonna get better,
aren't you, Steve?

I don't know, Kate.

(Chokes back tears)

You should sit down, ma'am.

I can get you some more
of your painkillers.

- No. I'll be all right.
- (Door opens)

Jimmy. Thank God.

I want some time with my client
in a private room.

I'll see what I can do.

You'll need better than that,
detective.

I'm glad to see you, mate.

JIMMY: Have you eaten?
Do you need something to drink?

NICK: No. No, no. I'm fine.

All right, Roz.
I'll take it from here.

NICK: Jimmy, this is insane.

I had nothing to do with it.

I don't know many
that would have had the guts.

That was incredibly brave
and honest of you, ma'am.

NICK: I've got no idea
how this can be happening to me.

It was Roz.

She's lying about everything.
Everything.
