Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:20,025 --> 00:00:21,280
Leonard Finch?
2
00:00:21,398 --> 00:00:22,800
If you could follow me.
3
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,373
Just Mr Finch.
4
00:00:27,253 --> 00:00:28,472
It's gonna be fine.
5
00:00:38,795 --> 00:00:43,771
A serious allegation has been made
that, on Friday 29 August
6
00:00:43,879 --> 00:00:46,152
at approximately 10:15pm,
7
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,576
you were seen engaging in an act
of gross indecency with another man
8
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,573
at the Merries Holiday Camp.
9
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,600
Did you attend Merries dance hall
on the evening in question?
10
00:00:59,180 --> 00:01:00,435
You know that I...
11
00:01:02,079 --> 00:01:03,079
Yes.
12
00:01:04,744 --> 00:01:07,520
Did you leave the hall
around ten to ten,
13
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,576
- then go back to your own chalet?
- I can't quite recall the time.
14
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,053
Did you, in fact, meet a man,
then spend the night with him?
15
00:01:15,078 --> 00:01:17,054
I can't... quite recall...
16
00:01:17,544 --> 00:01:18,520
No.
17
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,560
Well, yes.
18
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,576
I-I mean to say, I did meet
Mr Davenport. We shared a room.
19
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,415
Twin beds. He came back later.
20
00:01:44,813 --> 00:01:46,318
This is you, correct?
21
00:01:49,736 --> 00:01:51,200
So, who's this fella?
22
00:01:51,642 --> 00:01:52,640
Oh, erm...
23
00:01:53,332 --> 00:01:56,520
I'm not really... Really not sure.
24
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,560
You seem very familiar with him.
25
00:02:00,126 --> 00:02:02,126
Are you a homosexual, Mr Finch?
26
00:02:06,387 --> 00:02:08,403
I have nothing more to say.
27
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,536
You told me I'm not obliged
to say anything.
28
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,148
What about Daniel Marlowe?
Photographer from your village.
29
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,014
Allegation's it's him
you were in bed with.
30
00:02:19,001 --> 00:02:21,152
- So he's bent an' all?
- All right.
31
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,240
I have nothing more to say.
32
00:02:27,159 --> 00:02:29,135
We're gonna have to do this
the hard way, then.
33
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,200
Thank you, Leonard. That's all for now.
34
00:02:36,441 --> 00:02:38,017
- Leonard.
- I'm a fool.
35
00:02:38,041 --> 00:02:39,009
You're no fool.
36
00:02:39,034 --> 00:02:40,787
One who thought for a minute
he was in paradise,
37
00:02:40,812 --> 00:02:42,937
when he was really
paving the road to hell.
38
00:02:42,962 --> 00:02:45,258
Daniel said, "Don't give them
anything," and that's what you did.
39
00:02:45,283 --> 00:02:47,259
I'm going for a cinnamon bun,
a hot cocoa
40
00:02:47,284 --> 00:02:49,479
and a stroll on Midsummer Common.
In that order.
41
00:02:49,504 --> 00:02:51,480
- We've got an appointment.
- No, I don't think so.
42
00:02:51,505 --> 00:02:52,933
Give my best to the Archdeacon,
43
00:02:52,958 --> 00:02:55,293
but his feelings on the matter
are very clear.
44
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,768
And I've had all
the incandescent disappointment
45
00:02:57,793 --> 00:02:59,040
I can take from Mrs C.
46
00:03:10,506 --> 00:03:12,240
Good morning, Mr Lowell!
47
00:03:12,460 --> 00:03:14,775
Dahlias are looking lovely this year.
48
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,155
- Oh, thank you.
- Have you a minute to talk?
49
00:03:17,180 --> 00:03:18,860
Might I give you one of these?
50
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,120
Hey!
51
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,349
Damn you! So much for a fair
and democratic competition.
52
00:03:32,374 --> 00:03:35,048
Morning, Reeny. Well, you'd think
it was a race to the bottom,
53
00:03:35,073 --> 00:03:37,536
- not to parish council.
- It's hard.
54
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,667
Derek's death seems to have
galvanised his critics.
55
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,536
Your husband would be proud
to see you follow in his footsteps.
56
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:48,160
Well, it is getting lively,
for a village by-election.
57
00:03:48,185 --> 00:03:50,736
I find it rather encouraging
to see people throw their energy
58
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,207
into local politics.
59
00:03:52,888 --> 00:03:56,368
And when the competition do it,
you know you've got them on the run!
60
00:03:59,331 --> 00:04:03,505
It's like I always say:
capital begets capital and...
61
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,923
Reverend! Come and hear the word!
62
00:04:06,948 --> 00:04:08,840
And what word is that, Mr St Martin?
63
00:04:08,865 --> 00:04:10,070
Maurice, please.
64
00:04:10,279 --> 00:04:14,775
The word is morality.
Your area of expertise, no?
65
00:04:15,026 --> 00:04:18,240
The way I see it, each generation
has its great struggle.
66
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,295
And if the last one's was
a literal fight for their lives
67
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,426
against a foreign evil, then ours
is with the evil in our own hearts,
68
00:04:25,451 --> 00:04:27,427
the everyday morality.
69
00:04:27,826 --> 00:04:29,069
I couldn't agree more.
70
00:04:29,093 --> 00:04:31,987
And do you think, Vicar,
that morality has its part to play
71
00:04:32,012 --> 00:04:33,536
in local government?
72
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,895
I think it has a part to play
in every aspect of our lives.
73
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:40,280
Exactly. The council has a moral
duty to help local businesses!
74
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,817
Shouldn't my cousin Phillip have
the right to build on his own land,
75
00:04:43,842 --> 00:04:45,536
without waiting months for permission?
76
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:49,087
Can't Mrs Bedwell be allowed to sell
Christmas trees from her shop?
77
00:04:49,112 --> 00:04:52,855
As a businessman, I know that
we thrive on entrepreneurship.
78
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,080
And that is why the next council
must cut the red tape
79
00:04:55,226 --> 00:04:58,558
and let loose that great British
enterprising spirit!
80
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,038
- That's it for now. Thank you all!
- Reverend.
81
00:05:07,089 --> 00:05:09,357
I can understand if you have
reservations about me,
82
00:05:09,382 --> 00:05:10,698
our paths having rarely crossed.
83
00:05:10,723 --> 00:05:14,040
But I hope you can see
we're cut from the same cloth.
84
00:05:14,366 --> 00:05:16,172
I really must remain impartial.
85
00:05:16,197 --> 00:05:18,015
Of course! But there is the more, er,
86
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,916
delicate matter of our dear
departed chairman, Derek McArthur.
87
00:05:22,661 --> 00:05:23,735
You were there, I gather?
88
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,720
When they fished him out of the water.
89
00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:39,136
To commit suicide
does make you wonder if he wasn't...
90
00:05:39,332 --> 00:05:41,313
capable of committing other things.
91
00:05:42,209 --> 00:05:43,582
Could be the tip of the iceberg.
92
00:05:44,213 --> 00:05:46,222
Hmm, or idle gossip.
93
00:05:46,513 --> 00:05:49,489
Muck raking for publicity,
if I were being harsh.
94
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:53,683
We need strong leadership, Vicar.
Every flock needs its shepherd.
95
00:05:54,333 --> 00:05:57,586
Come along, Maurice.
Busy schedule today, eh?
96
00:05:59,206 --> 00:06:00,760
Good to see you both talking.
97
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:05,440
Hm.
98
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,896
- Where's Leonard?
- Er, he's just in town.
99
00:06:18,129 --> 00:06:21,440
- They kept him in?
- No, no, he had a prior engagement.
100
00:06:21,929 --> 00:06:23,960
A prior engagement?!
101
00:06:28,742 --> 00:06:30,315
I see Reeny called.
102
00:06:30,763 --> 00:06:34,319
As if I have time to natter away
with every Tom, Dick and Harry
103
00:06:34,344 --> 00:06:35,320
that comes calling.
104
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,280
I thought you and Jack
liked the McArthurs?
105
00:06:37,907 --> 00:06:40,536
Drumming up support
in her mourning clothes.
106
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,536
It's wanton luridness!
107
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,883
It's hardly the dance
of the Seven Veils.
108
00:06:45,140 --> 00:06:47,316
And anyone who can win
a lovely legs competition
109
00:06:47,341 --> 00:06:49,141
is in no position to judge.
110
00:06:52,840 --> 00:06:55,000
Reeny's certainly a progressive thinker.
111
00:06:55,025 --> 00:06:56,750
Taking a reformist stance.
112
00:06:56,850 --> 00:06:58,360
Liberal views on tolerance.
113
00:06:58,617 --> 00:07:00,360
And look where that gets you.
114
00:07:00,829 --> 00:07:02,376
You're angry because of Leonard.
115
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,536
I'd put more stock
in that St Martin chap.
116
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,896
Get us back to proper family values.
117
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,615
I'm pretty sure Maurice's moral compass
118
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,330
points whichever way the wind blows.
119
00:07:12,259 --> 00:07:15,259
Oh, smarten yourself up
before the Archdeacon arrives!
120
00:07:18,050 --> 00:07:20,325
Not your first time
in here, then, Mr Marlowe.
121
00:07:20,738 --> 00:07:21,740
No.
122
00:07:21,985 --> 00:07:23,815
Questioned about a dead teenager.
123
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,060
Nudey photos and a poisoning.
124
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:27,560
And?
125
00:07:28,439 --> 00:07:32,698
On the evening in question,
did you join Mr Finch in his chalet?
126
00:07:33,126 --> 00:07:34,251
No.
127
00:07:36,064 --> 00:07:38,880
Did you engage in gross indecency
with Mr Finch?
128
00:07:38,905 --> 00:07:40,379
No. That's absurd.
129
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,349
Where were you that evening
at quarter past ten?
130
00:07:44,374 --> 00:07:46,794
I went out to the main hall
from about seven,
131
00:07:46,819 --> 00:07:48,519
danced with the Inspector's wife,
132
00:07:48,824 --> 00:07:50,760
and I was back in my own chalet by ten.
133
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,040
I slept through to dawn.
134
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,160
Have you ever seen Mr Finch
with another man?
135
00:07:58,185 --> 00:07:59,167
No.
136
00:07:59,506 --> 00:08:01,320
But I'm only an acquaintance.
137
00:08:01,667 --> 00:08:03,536
Who went on holiday with him.
138
00:08:03,941 --> 00:08:06,576
I went on holiday with my friend
Reverend Davenport.
139
00:08:06,773 --> 00:08:10,297
And the Chapmans, who I've known
since I photographed their wedding.
140
00:08:14,039 --> 00:08:16,712
Well, we'll be in touch
if we have any more questions.
141
00:08:25,260 --> 00:08:26,260
Mm-hm?
142
00:08:26,285 --> 00:08:27,360
You forgot your lunch, love.
143
00:08:30,033 --> 00:08:32,689
- You left in a bit of a hurry.
- Thank you.
144
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,174
You had a right face on this morning.
145
00:08:42,560 --> 00:08:44,346
In fact, you still have.
146
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:47,536
Leonard's gonna be OK, isn't he?
147
00:08:48,060 --> 00:08:51,181
Well, Larry's got the bit
between his teeth on this one.
148
00:08:52,111 --> 00:08:53,536
Thinks I'm a soft touch.
149
00:08:53,560 --> 00:08:55,896
Of all the things
the police could be doing.
150
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,702
- It's barely a crime!
- Except it is, Cathy.
151
00:08:59,560 --> 00:09:01,560
And I have sent men down for it.
152
00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:09,736
We all knew of Mr Finch's...
153
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,512
peculiarities.
154
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,106
But there's knowing what he is...
155
00:09:16,131 --> 00:09:18,280
...and allowing him to act upon it.
156
00:09:20,078 --> 00:09:23,335
I had hoped that you would
have guided him away
157
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,040
from such temptations.
158
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:30,873
Don't we have a duty to save people
from living a lie?
159
00:09:39,560 --> 00:09:43,560
This situation has gone too far.
And too public.
160
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:47,941
If these allegations
are proved to be true,
161
00:09:48,906 --> 00:09:51,720
then the church cannot defend him.
162
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:55,916
- Whose business is it...?
- What do you hope to achieve, William?
163
00:09:56,560 --> 00:10:00,430
You really want to bang this drum,
wearing that collar,
164
00:10:00,799 --> 00:10:03,575
and publicly challenge
the law of the land?
165
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,536
I understand if you cannot speak up.
166
00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:08,274
- But I am...
- You have a role to play here,
167
00:10:09,322 --> 00:10:10,972
in Grantchester.
168
00:10:13,332 --> 00:10:16,898
If you wish to remain
part of this ministry,
169
00:10:17,198 --> 00:10:19,560
you will cooperate with the police.
170
00:10:20,925 --> 00:10:22,588
Tell them the truth.
171
00:10:24,259 --> 00:10:26,963
The church is not above the law.
172
00:10:37,007 --> 00:10:38,983
How did it go with the Archdeacon?
173
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,813
- Ahh... fine.
- Really?
174
00:10:42,346 --> 00:10:45,440
- He's, er... he's concerned.
- Am I out?
175
00:10:45,792 --> 00:10:47,575
- I'm out, aren't I?
- No!
176
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,320
No, this is all gonna blow over
and then everything will be fine.
177
00:10:50,345 --> 00:10:54,455
- Was he angry at my absence?
- Leonard, it's gonna be OK.
178
00:10:55,276 --> 00:10:58,470
Will, could I have a word, please?
179
00:11:06,158 --> 00:11:11,134
This arrived for Derek today.
It's from a property firm in Hove.
180
00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:14,939
Confirming acceptance on Derek's
purchase of some holiday home.
181
00:11:15,954 --> 00:11:17,040
Well, I don't follow.
182
00:11:17,759 --> 00:11:19,536
Why would he secretly organise this
183
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,536
if he knew he was going to...
end his own life?
184
00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:26,071
People in his situation
often do contradictory things.
185
00:11:26,096 --> 00:11:28,769
I understand that. But that's not Derek.
186
00:11:30,024 --> 00:11:33,228
I never really believed him capable
of what he did.
187
00:11:33,253 --> 00:11:37,118
I had to accept it, but... now this.
188
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,736
This wasn't suicide, Will.
189
00:11:40,465 --> 00:11:41,765
It was murder.
190
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,536
It's an open and shut case:
191
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:50,344
Derek McArthur drowned himself here
a few weeks back.
192
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,143
He left that note on the bank,
inside his jacket pocket.
193
00:11:54,168 --> 00:11:56,144
Happily married,
chairman of the council,
194
00:11:56,169 --> 00:11:57,878
well respected in the village.
195
00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:01,662
- It just doesn't add up.
- Or maybe it does.
196
00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:04,896
Sometimes, it's just a man
who ran out of rope.
197
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,548
And another man trying to distract
himself from his curate's crimes.
198
00:12:10,276 --> 00:12:11,292
Maybe.
199
00:12:11,989 --> 00:12:13,682
Why didn't you come to me about Leonard?
200
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,536
I thought I had it under control.
201
00:12:15,560 --> 00:12:18,200
- Well, you didn't.
- And what would you have done?
202
00:12:18,225 --> 00:12:20,535
- Intimidated Bryan?
- Blackmail is an offence, Will.
203
00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:22,673
We could've had this Bryan fella in
for that.
204
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,216
Instead, I'm having to grill
bloody Leonard!
205
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,416
Whose explanation is wafer thin,
206
00:12:27,441 --> 00:12:29,441
and one wrong word
from another witness...
207
00:12:30,646 --> 00:12:32,394
A charge will mean a trial.
208
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,428
Where all this is laid bare.
209
00:12:36,773 --> 00:12:38,855
Why does the law care
what he does in private?
210
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,659
He was happy and in love.
We have to fight for that.
211
00:12:41,684 --> 00:12:43,838
You're not that bloody naive.
212
00:12:44,386 --> 00:12:47,052
The only fight left is for you
to come in and say you knew nothing.
213
00:12:47,624 --> 00:12:50,600
Or better yet... give him an alibi.
214
00:12:50,846 --> 00:12:52,802
Oh, right. Yeah, lie under oath
215
00:12:52,827 --> 00:12:55,149
to hide Leonard from a stupid,
outdated law.
216
00:12:55,430 --> 00:12:58,673
I can't do that, Geordie. It goes
against everything I believe in.
217
00:13:01,673 --> 00:13:03,677
You tell the truth, and he's done for.
218
00:13:09,999 --> 00:13:12,535
As I said to your officers before,
it's Derek's handwriting,
219
00:13:12,560 --> 00:13:14,560
- without a doubt.
- Mm-hm.
220
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:17,536
Was he always so pithy?
221
00:13:17,560 --> 00:13:20,000
Not judging by some of the annual
parish meetings.
222
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:23,069
It was one of the oddities
about his death.
223
00:13:23,094 --> 00:13:26,535
He wrote tirelessly to constituents
and on council matters
224
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,859
- ever since his war days.
- Is that where you met? In the war?
225
00:13:29,884 --> 00:13:32,106
Have you heard of Operation Mincemeat?
226
00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:34,536
We managed to fool the Germans
into thinking
227
00:13:34,560 --> 00:13:37,536
we were going to invade the Balkans
using just a dead tramp,
228
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:39,920
an officer's uniform
and some faked papers.
229
00:13:40,896 --> 00:13:44,611
- Did he have any enemies?
- Derek had an ability to be liked.
230
00:13:44,636 --> 00:13:47,896
Even when he wasn't always
easy to live with.
231
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,865
Sorry, didn't realise you had company.
232
00:13:49,890 --> 00:13:52,930
Oh, Robert, come in.
Robert Waterhouse is an old friend.
233
00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:57,353
Will's kindly asked Inspector
Keating to look into Derek's death.
234
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,536
Ah, you knew Derek well?
235
00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:03,216
In our youth... and these last
few weeks after coming to visit.
236
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,536
Erm, I was basing a character on him.
237
00:14:05,980 --> 00:14:08,282
I'm an author. It was for my next novel.
238
00:14:08,824 --> 00:14:10,800
All feels very inappropriate now.
239
00:14:11,270 --> 00:14:14,000
I've been able to lean on him
for help with the election.
240
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,536
Well, hardly.
241
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:18,320
I hand out leaflets,
she's the one being righteous
242
00:14:18,345 --> 00:14:20,345
and brilliant and changing the world.
243
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,138
D'you think Derek was capable
of taking his own life?
244
00:14:25,163 --> 00:14:28,536
Inspector, I imagine you and I
both spend a lot of time
245
00:14:28,741 --> 00:14:30,620
trying to get into other people's heads.
246
00:14:30,644 --> 00:14:31,862
Lining up the plots.
247
00:14:31,887 --> 00:14:35,536
But truthfully,
I don't think anyone really knows
248
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,994
what goes on inside another man's mind.
249
00:14:38,097 --> 00:14:41,280
You said he wrote tirelessly
to his constituents.
250
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,560
Could we see any of the letters?
251
00:14:45,439 --> 00:14:48,415
I mean who files carbon copies
of their correspondence?
252
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,936
Who files their correspondence?
253
00:14:49,961 --> 00:14:52,832
Well, haven't found any evidence
of a falling out,
254
00:14:52,857 --> 00:14:54,536
but if I read one more complaint
255
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,400
about traffic measures
in the high street...
256
00:14:57,559 --> 00:14:59,535
So, there's a chain of letters here
257
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,794
relating to a drainage issue
in a property down by the Cam.
258
00:15:02,819 --> 00:15:05,576
A Mr Eric Pritchard
getting rather tetchy.
259
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,736
I'll raise you an Elsie Bedwell,
moaning about the bleating sheep.
260
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,536
In this last letter, Derek
shuts down Pritchard's complaint
261
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,536
by saying, "I'm sorry.
There's nothing more to be done."
262
00:15:16,054 --> 00:15:17,920
It's the same words
from the suicide note.
263
00:15:21,792 --> 00:15:25,408
- Handwriting's a match as well.
- It's the exact same letter.
264
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,782
It's not a suicide note. It never was.
265
00:15:27,807 --> 00:15:29,536
Derek sends this to Eric Pritchard...
266
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,634
Who cuts out this particular phrase,
267
00:15:31,987 --> 00:15:35,277
- slips it into Derek's pocket...
- And pushes him in the water.
268
00:15:42,386 --> 00:15:43,920
I thought this place was empty.
269
00:15:44,112 --> 00:15:46,305
Mrs C said the owner moved on years ago.
270
00:15:51,135 --> 00:15:52,400
Mr Pritchard?
271
00:15:57,906 --> 00:15:59,882
No big pile of post.
272
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,535
Someone had to be coming here
to collect Derek's letters.
273
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,740
The someone who started
a correspondence with him,
274
00:16:04,765 --> 00:16:06,901
to elicit a letter that sounded
like a suicide note.
275
00:16:07,636 --> 00:16:11,120
- All sounds a bit elaborate.
- It's murder, Geordie.
276
00:16:11,629 --> 00:16:14,045
By someone who knew Derek.
Knew this place was empty.
277
00:16:15,193 --> 00:16:16,827
It's someone in the village.
278
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,736
Do a few common factors
underpin all good fiction?
279
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,167
A hero's quest, a decisive crisis...
280
00:16:55,504 --> 00:16:57,480
a changed status quo?
281
00:16:57,914 --> 00:17:00,695
Well, I like to think
it's not the universal,
282
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,896
but more the personal stories
that really chime the strongest.
283
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,877
Hello, Will... Inspector.
284
00:17:06,051 --> 00:17:08,024
I'm guessing you're not here
for the book club.
285
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,120
Er, we're just checking on
some parish business.
286
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:12,457
Oh, of course.
287
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,986
Oh, bloody hell,
288
00:17:22,011 --> 00:17:23,835
they'll have you
in the village stocks for this.
289
00:17:25,906 --> 00:17:28,536
All the minutes from the last 12 months.
290
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,969
If Derek caused any grievances
at the council, it'll be here.
291
00:17:38,966 --> 00:17:41,909
It's quite the cast of characters
you have here, Reverend.
292
00:17:42,203 --> 00:17:43,536
Well, I get the feeling
293
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,440
we're all gonna be
in one of your books one day.
294
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,896
- Well, I promise I'll be kind.
- Er, did I sense some, er,
295
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,116
reluctance from Reeny
when I called earlier?
296
00:17:53,052 --> 00:17:56,285
I think she'd hoped
you'd look into it discretely.
297
00:17:56,909 --> 00:17:59,896
A policeman calls on a candidate
two days before a vote.
298
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:02,536
Ah. I was, er... I was just trying
to do the right thing.
299
00:18:02,790 --> 00:18:05,943
Oh, and you did!
Inaction would be far worse.
300
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,520
Here we go. Give us a minute,
would you, Mr Waterhouse?
301
00:18:12,899 --> 00:18:14,698
Planning applications this year.
302
00:18:15,701 --> 00:18:19,948
Denied three times.
All made by Phillip St Martin.
303
00:18:20,133 --> 00:18:23,133
Maurice St Martin's cousin.
Lot of money lost out on.
304
00:18:24,613 --> 00:18:27,589
It's like you said:
it's someone who knew Derek
305
00:18:27,933 --> 00:18:29,540
and knows this village.
306
00:18:30,879 --> 00:18:32,360
So, what do you say, Phillip?
307
00:18:33,423 --> 00:18:34,536
Must have been frustrating
308
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,736
that Derek was blocking
your planning applications.
309
00:18:37,148 --> 00:18:38,228
Extremely.
310
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,522
It's no secret that Derek and I
never saw eye-to-eye.
311
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:42,952
How so?
312
00:18:43,690 --> 00:18:46,090
I believe in investing
in local businesses
313
00:18:46,115 --> 00:18:49,091
and letting us get on with it.
Derek didn't.
314
00:18:49,788 --> 00:18:51,056
But if you're suggesting
315
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,049
that his death was
in some way suspicious...
316
00:18:53,756 --> 00:18:54,840
I am.
317
00:18:55,844 --> 00:18:58,536
Look, Derek could be a pain,
318
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,227
but councillors come and go
every few years.
319
00:19:01,479 --> 00:19:06,455
I'm a patient man. Truth is,
I found a much better revenge.
320
00:19:06,829 --> 00:19:08,901
- And what's that?
- Maurice.
321
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,359
Running for office.
322
00:19:10,959 --> 00:19:14,788
Can you think of a more perfect
grenade to roll into the council?
323
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,185
I was with my husband in the main hall.
324
00:19:25,506 --> 00:19:28,212
We attended the dance
and stayed for a drink.
325
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,536
Did you see Mr Finch
leave the dance hall?
326
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:32,861
No, I did not.
327
00:19:33,179 --> 00:19:36,155
Oh, so you didn't see
if Mr Marlowe left with Mr Finch?
328
00:19:36,936 --> 00:19:39,241
- No, I did not.
- So, would it be fair to say that
329
00:19:39,266 --> 00:19:42,972
as far as you're aware, Mr Finch
went back to his chalet alone?
330
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,224
"The integrity of the upright
guides them,
331
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,519
"but the unfaithful are destroyed
by their duplicity."
332
00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:54,533
Have you ever seen Mr Finch
show affection for another man?
333
00:19:59,439 --> 00:20:00,753
Mrs Chapman?
334
00:20:04,184 --> 00:20:06,240
- No.
- What did you see, Mrs Chapman?
335
00:20:07,676 --> 00:20:10,040
You wouldn't want to pervert
the course of justice now.
336
00:20:10,065 --> 00:20:11,327
- I don't think Mrs...
- No.
337
00:20:11,351 --> 00:20:12,855
Or obstruct our investigation.
338
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,716
- No!
- So, what did you see?
339
00:20:17,433 --> 00:20:19,999
Nothing. Nothing at all.
340
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:36,216
Leonard...
341
00:20:36,241 --> 00:20:39,962
Hang on!
Right... what do you think of this?
342
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,536
"The views and attitudes that shaped us
343
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,536
"may not shape the next generation.
344
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,576
"But perhaps nor will the prejudices
we wrestle with today.
345
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,536
"We are a community,
and a community only works
346
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,563
"when it carries everyone
along with it."
347
00:20:53,260 --> 00:20:55,972
It's very... political, for a sermon.
348
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,743
Well, I was thinking
of speaking at the hustings.
349
00:20:58,966 --> 00:21:02,505
Accentuate the positives
of a progressive candidate.
350
00:21:02,732 --> 00:21:06,800
You might find that church and state
are kept at a distance for a reason.
351
00:21:06,825 --> 00:21:09,198
Never underestimate public opinion.
352
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,727
I've been thinking about
going back to the police.
353
00:21:14,007 --> 00:21:16,440
Present them with a reasonable story,
354
00:21:16,465 --> 00:21:21,441
about Daniel and I being seen
innocently together.
355
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,536
Lying is not the answer to this.
356
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:28,560
But what is? I have the sword
of Damocles hanging over me.
357
00:21:30,232 --> 00:21:31,396
Come to the hustings!
358
00:21:32,026 --> 00:21:35,520
It'll take your mind off any
sharp objects floating above you.
359
00:21:35,545 --> 00:21:36,521
Hm?
360
00:21:44,499 --> 00:21:45,508
What happened?
361
00:21:51,406 --> 00:21:53,077
Look, I understand that you're angry.
362
00:21:53,102 --> 00:21:54,359
I'm not angry.
363
00:21:54,384 --> 00:21:57,040
You wish things were back
the way they were. Before you knew.
364
00:21:57,065 --> 00:21:58,779
Pandora's box is open.
365
00:21:58,804 --> 00:22:02,000
Leonard is still Leonard.
His life is not a sin.
366
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,441
And that's the view
of the Archdeacon, too, is it?
367
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,824
When he said you're out
as well if you defend him?
368
00:22:06,848 --> 00:22:07,735
You listened in?
369
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,278
Course I bloody did!
370
00:22:09,997 --> 00:22:12,536
He's part of your flock.
And you let him stray.
371
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,269
- I let him be himself.
- Oh, and look where that's got us!
372
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,200
You're the shepherd.
373
00:22:19,225 --> 00:22:23,160
And you stood by and let us all
wallow in his sins.
374
00:22:23,185 --> 00:22:24,571
Oh, don't be such a bigot!
375
00:22:25,773 --> 00:22:29,055
- I will not be spoken to like that.
- Mrs C!
376
00:22:41,333 --> 00:22:42,882
Stupid boy!
377
00:22:55,952 --> 00:22:58,735
Oh, please tell me you've come
to make an exonerating statement.
378
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,605
I can't do that, Geordie.
379
00:23:01,357 --> 00:23:03,839
Well, Mrs C was hardly a star witness,
380
00:23:03,864 --> 00:23:05,536
and now you're gonna tell the truth,
381
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,750
even if you damn Leonard
and lose your job.
382
00:23:07,775 --> 00:23:11,116
I don't know. I feel impotent.
383
00:23:11,709 --> 00:23:13,121
Have you tried oysters?
384
00:23:14,679 --> 00:23:16,131
What are you gonna do?
385
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:18,859
Maurice St Martin, let's bring him in.
386
00:23:20,333 --> 00:23:22,005
Some new evidence come to light?
387
00:23:22,030 --> 00:23:24,068
I've asked around. He's a hustler.
388
00:23:24,294 --> 00:23:27,655
Underhanded tactics...
er, bribery, sabotage,
389
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,536
devaluing the land,
forcing the owners to undersell.
390
00:23:30,908 --> 00:23:33,382
So, basically, you want me
to haul someone in you don't like,
391
00:23:33,407 --> 00:23:34,850
based on some village gossip?
392
00:23:34,875 --> 00:23:37,360
Oh, fine, Geordie, it's clearly not
worth wasting your time pursuing.
393
00:23:37,385 --> 00:23:40,361
Easy! That's not what I'm saying.
394
00:23:40,944 --> 00:23:42,536
In fact, I've already asked
Miss Scott...
395
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,903
The St Martin files and the
McArthur files, from the archive.
396
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:47,956
Thank you, Miss Scott.
397
00:23:49,213 --> 00:23:51,575
Forget God.
You want an all-seeing presence,
398
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,600
she's in a wiggle dress on desk seven.
399
00:23:57,691 --> 00:23:58,704
What is it?
400
00:23:58,836 --> 00:24:01,536
Five years back, Reeny
sustained some nasty injuries
401
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,271
after an incident at her home.
402
00:24:03,929 --> 00:24:06,400
- What happened?
- There's nothing.
403
00:24:06,425 --> 00:24:11,042
There's no charges, but it reads
more like a fight than a fall.
404
00:24:11,333 --> 00:24:14,309
So, what... Derek beats her
and they shushed it up?
405
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:18,089
Reeny mentioned he wasn't
always easy to live with.
406
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,736
So, after years of suffering in silence,
407
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,628
the wife knocks off her abusive husband?
408
00:24:23,653 --> 00:24:26,520
Believe me, that is
the most likely motive so far.
409
00:24:36,909 --> 00:24:38,121
I'll leave you to it.
410
00:24:40,939 --> 00:24:44,920
Reeny, er, we... we need to ask you
a few more questions about Derek.
411
00:24:45,607 --> 00:24:47,360
Did he have a temper?
412
00:24:47,736 --> 00:24:50,171
Ever struggle with
his anger boiling over?
413
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,797
- He could get worked up.
- And was that ever aimed at you?
414
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,773
What started as a happy marriage
didn't always stay that way.
415
00:25:03,207 --> 00:25:04,592
Whose does?
416
00:25:05,093 --> 00:25:07,760
But, erm, we did good work together.
417
00:25:08,866 --> 00:25:11,800
A few years back,
there was a domestic incident here.
418
00:25:12,339 --> 00:25:13,645
Police were called.
419
00:25:14,372 --> 00:25:16,830
It's not exactly "good work"
from the sounds of it.
420
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,400
Yes. There were violent moments.
421
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,440
And, yes...
422
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:27,120
...I won't lie, the thought
of killing him did cross my mind.
423
00:25:28,133 --> 00:25:33,133
But he wasn't an evil man.
He was... haunted, perhaps.
424
00:25:34,073 --> 00:25:36,376
Tricking the Germans might seem clever,
425
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,272
but truthfully, war is
one awful choice after another.
426
00:25:41,413 --> 00:25:44,275
For Derek, it was picking the men
who never came back.
427
00:25:44,969 --> 00:25:47,183
You don't have to defend a violent man.
428
00:25:47,208 --> 00:25:48,895
People should know the truth about him.
429
00:25:50,301 --> 00:25:51,472
Really?
430
00:25:52,566 --> 00:25:55,400
I'm being judged because he died.
431
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,067
Because of how he died.
432
00:25:57,092 --> 00:26:00,511
Because of everything except who I am.
433
00:26:01,074 --> 00:26:03,800
I don't need to give the world
more of Derek.
434
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,560
I wanted him to retire.
I didn't want to kill him.
435
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,231
Do you really think
I would have come to you,
436
00:26:11,256 --> 00:26:13,439
questioning his suicide, if I had?
437
00:26:19,422 --> 00:26:22,398
Someone like Reeny as a chairwoman
might take up Leonard's fight.
438
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,040
If it comes to that.
439
00:26:26,106 --> 00:26:28,082
You do not want it to come to that.
440
00:26:28,460 --> 00:26:31,217
At some point,
bad laws need to be overturned.
441
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:33,520
People like Maurice
are holding this world back.
442
00:26:33,545 --> 00:26:34,490
People like Reeny...
443
00:26:34,514 --> 00:26:36,521
I wouldn't pin all
your hopes on her, Will.
444
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,918
- Well, I have to pin them somewhere.
- No, you don't!
445
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,736
What you have to do
is give Leonard an alibi.
446
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,440
Geordie!
447
00:26:49,114 --> 00:26:50,960
Do you think I like asking?
448
00:26:52,898 --> 00:26:55,465
Jesus Christ, Will,
there's cracks in Leonard's story.
449
00:26:55,582 --> 00:26:58,509
Larry's been on the phone to the
Merries staff for more statements.
450
00:26:58,534 --> 00:27:01,149
- If one person saw something else...
- I can fix this.
451
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,240
Just come to the station and tell us
Bryan Stanford was mistaken...
452
00:27:07,301 --> 00:27:11,141
...because Leonard was in that bloody
twin bed across from you.
453
00:27:11,986 --> 00:27:12,986
Hey!
454
00:27:14,602 --> 00:27:16,129
Then all this goes away.
455
00:27:26,052 --> 00:27:27,576
And that is how I know
456
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,679
that the growing number of passing
motor vehicles is a concern.
457
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,536
And I know that the lack
of a telephone line
458
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,748
in Spring Lane is a concern.
459
00:27:36,773 --> 00:27:38,200
I know these things
460
00:27:38,225 --> 00:27:41,855
because I live amongst you
and have done all my life.
461
00:27:42,371 --> 00:27:44,997
I know Grantchester,
462
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,536
and I want to serve it as best I can.
463
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:49,851
Thank you.
464
00:28:01,828 --> 00:28:03,335
Thank you, Mrs McArthur.
465
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,596
Mr St Martin, would you like to respond?
466
00:28:07,621 --> 00:28:08,632
Oh, yes.
467
00:28:14,687 --> 00:28:18,403
Derek McArthur served as chairman
to the council for many years.
468
00:28:18,797 --> 00:28:23,322
Mrs McArthur by his side.
His suicide is tragic.
469
00:28:24,644 --> 00:28:26,262
But it does beg a question.
470
00:28:27,921 --> 00:28:29,402
What was he so sacred of?
471
00:28:30,336 --> 00:28:34,077
Was there something rotten
in Grantchester?
472
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,200
Perhaps Mrs McArthur can help us,
473
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,880
since she's been seen
talking to the police.
474
00:28:40,716 --> 00:28:44,960
Perhaps you would care to comment
on the accusation of gross indecency
475
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,135
levelled at our very own church curate?
476
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,120
- Hey!
- Bloody hell.
477
00:28:53,917 --> 00:28:55,095
Reeny!
478
00:28:56,941 --> 00:28:58,870
This is utter...
479
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,522
I-I have no idea what allegations
you're talking about.
480
00:29:02,547 --> 00:29:07,523
Really? Only a policeman
calls on you yesterday and today,
481
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,904
and the curate fella's been
down the station, too.
482
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,720
I mean, it's plain deviancy
here on our own doorstep!
483
00:29:16,250 --> 00:29:20,226
To think that the unnatural
can take up home amongst us.
484
00:29:20,251 --> 00:29:23,838
I ask, do you want a council
that's just a soft touch,
485
00:29:23,863 --> 00:29:27,055
or do you want one that takes
a stand against the corruption
486
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,536
that threatens our traditional,
British way of life?!
487
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,480
That's enough!
488
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:32,855
Bloody hell.
489
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,160
You dare to throw these accusations
out here, for public trial?
490
00:29:36,305 --> 00:29:38,655
This isn't
a cheap game for scoring points.
491
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,536
You're toying with someone's else life!
492
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,108
You're-you're pouring poison
in people's ears and for what?
493
00:29:43,235 --> 00:29:44,536
For a few bloody votes!
494
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,536
And what exactly are you peddling,
Reverend?
495
00:29:47,284 --> 00:29:49,947
Milk and honey for poofs and communists!
496
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,376
Order, please!
497
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,330
- Steady on!
- This man should be disqualified!
498
00:29:54,355 --> 00:29:56,355
All right! All right!
499
00:29:57,807 --> 00:30:01,287
Everyone just needs to calm down...
and go home.
500
00:30:10,805 --> 00:30:11,972
Leonard!
501
00:30:13,298 --> 00:30:15,785
Leonard, I am... I am so, so sorry.
502
00:30:16,214 --> 00:30:19,855
- What... what was said?
- Well, you heard the crux of it.
503
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,034
And, er, Maurice only had
the allegation.
504
00:30:22,955 --> 00:30:24,309
The village?
505
00:30:24,970 --> 00:30:26,221
Mixed.
506
00:30:26,805 --> 00:30:31,080
And, er, I'm sorry I, er, spoke up.
507
00:30:32,147 --> 00:30:34,249
That speech you were writing?
508
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,230
Er, a little more
off-the-cuff, in the end.
509
00:30:39,013 --> 00:30:40,311
That's...
510
00:30:40,852 --> 00:30:41,848
OK?
511
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,560
Well, I, erm... hit a table.
512
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:48,990
It all got a little bit rowdy.
513
00:30:51,039 --> 00:30:54,907
Ah. Sounds very Jesus in the temple.
514
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,255
People won't care.
515
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,067
How can I stand in front of
our congregation again?
516
00:31:11,090 --> 00:31:14,644
Walk into a... a post office. I ran!
517
00:31:14,965 --> 00:31:19,421
I ran out and I didn't... defend myself.
518
00:31:19,446 --> 00:31:23,040
I did! And Reeny will, I'm-I'm sure.
519
00:31:23,065 --> 00:31:25,546
And the Archdeacon will be happy
with that, will he?
520
00:31:31,847 --> 00:31:38,211
I would hate more than anything
for my mistakes to cost you this...
521
00:31:40,014 --> 00:31:40,990
...your vocation.
522
00:31:41,630 --> 00:31:43,567
Please, Will.
523
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,536
I wouldn't be able to look myself
in the mirror
524
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:47,760
if I didn't say something.
525
00:31:50,820 --> 00:31:55,560
You are a... wonderful idiot sometimes.
526
00:32:10,833 --> 00:32:12,003
Hello?
527
00:32:14,014 --> 00:32:18,455
Oh, sorry. The door was open,
and nobody answered.
528
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,188
No, I'm up, I am. Come in.
529
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,800
- I can come back?
- No, it's fine, I was just, erm...
530
00:32:26,990 --> 00:32:29,002
I can't pretend I'm not disappointed.
531
00:32:30,335 --> 00:32:31,393
In me?
532
00:32:32,126 --> 00:32:36,400
Uh... I was a little taken aback.
The whole village was.
533
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,974
Allegations about Derek,
accusations of Leonard.
534
00:32:39,999 --> 00:32:43,350
Leonard is a good man.
We are so lucky to have him.
535
00:32:43,375 --> 00:32:45,351
Damn anyone who thinks differently.
536
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,009
And what a world it would be
if everyone felt the same.
537
00:32:50,020 --> 00:32:53,303
But you can't rock the boat
if they push you out of it.
538
00:32:57,238 --> 00:32:59,561
Another surprise delivery.
539
00:33:12,087 --> 00:33:13,560
Well, will you look who it is?
540
00:33:13,996 --> 00:33:17,320
The only man who can turn
a parish election into a fist fight.
541
00:33:17,977 --> 00:33:21,536
- Jesus would be proud.
- Jesus never met Maurice St Martin.
542
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,049
How did he know about Leonard?
543
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,560
I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.
544
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,185
- Reeny received this today.
- Hm?
545
00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:33,783
And "this" is what?
546
00:33:36,993 --> 00:33:38,735
Some sort of surveillance?
547
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,576
Someone's made timings
of the comings and goings
548
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,240
from the St Martin warehouse.
549
00:33:42,292 --> 00:33:45,292
There's about two weeks' worth
there, starting two months ago.
550
00:33:48,214 --> 00:33:49,336
Who's it from?
551
00:33:49,815 --> 00:33:53,111
Well, there's a covering letter
from a private detective
552
00:33:53,136 --> 00:33:55,900
that Derek hired. But there's
no address or number given.
553
00:33:58,475 --> 00:34:01,650
This last entry says,
"Observation is suspended...
554
00:34:02,378 --> 00:34:03,976
"to avoid suspicion."
555
00:34:04,063 --> 00:34:05,840
Derek was spying on Maurice?
556
00:34:11,896 --> 00:34:12,989
No-one's in.
557
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,774
Well, that private detective must
have been watching from somewhere.
558
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,590
Here's your surveillance post.
559
00:34:42,420 --> 00:34:45,062
A clear view of them,
but hard for them to see you.
560
00:34:45,230 --> 00:34:48,474
No ash in the ashtray.
Only cigarette butts.
561
00:34:48,782 --> 00:34:50,511
So? Must be on the floor.
562
00:34:51,402 --> 00:34:52,602
Can't see any.
563
00:35:13,268 --> 00:35:16,043
This how you win over all your
potential voters, is it, Maurice?
564
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,913
I see exactly what your game is.
This is a vendetta.
565
00:35:29,236 --> 00:35:30,254
A vendetta?
566
00:35:30,279 --> 00:35:32,056
He doesn't like it
that I'm a hair's breadth
567
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,478
from the parish council,
so, last day of the campaign,
568
00:35:34,503 --> 00:35:36,120
he's fitting me up
for whatever happened to Derek.
569
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,008
He's the one you should arrest,
for sheltering a homosexual.
570
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,417
Who told you there were allegations
about Leonard Finch?
571
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,348
I've got little birds everywhere.
572
00:35:50,923 --> 00:35:53,801
At a guess, some cop got
loose-lipped at the Lodge.
573
00:35:56,651 --> 00:35:58,536
So, why'd you make a run for it
at the shed?
574
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,536
Because when I find people
nosing around my property
575
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,721
with a pair of binoculars
and I've done nothing wrong,
576
00:36:02,746 --> 00:36:04,023
I figure it's a stitch-up.
577
00:36:05,171 --> 00:36:07,798
You know, you love
to play the victim, don't you?
578
00:36:07,823 --> 00:36:10,207
"Poor Maurice,
picked on by the leftie vicar."
579
00:36:10,232 --> 00:36:11,794
Must wind you up something rotten,
580
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,875
people preferring the vision
I'm selling to yours.
581
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,016
You're pretty close to your cousin
Phillip, aren't you?
582
00:36:19,451 --> 00:36:22,427
It's gotta be a pain his plans keep
getting squashed by the council.
583
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,536
Rumour has it, you've a habit
of sabotaging land sales
584
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,624
and then swooping in
to buy them up cheap.
585
00:36:27,827 --> 00:36:30,464
Derek McArthur got wise
to your intentions
586
00:36:31,270 --> 00:36:33,715
and sent a private detective
to keep watch.
587
00:36:34,969 --> 00:36:37,129
And when you found out, you got angry...
588
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:39,757
...followed Derek...
589
00:36:40,645 --> 00:36:42,292
and pushed him into the Cam.
590
00:36:44,311 --> 00:36:46,900
That's... That's what you've got?
591
00:36:47,893 --> 00:36:49,675
Oh, bloody hell.
592
00:36:50,329 --> 00:36:53,809
You're right about one thing.
I do know how to get a good deal.
593
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,147
Which is why I'd been helping Derek
buy a house down in Hove.
594
00:36:58,014 --> 00:37:02,857
Now, why would I kill a man I was
about to make a commission off?
595
00:37:10,220 --> 00:37:13,504
Ah, there's something not right
about this surveillance operation.
596
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,119
- The ashtray's bothering me.
- Come again?
597
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,341
This private detective smoking away,
watching the St Martin's place,
598
00:37:19,366 --> 00:37:20,240
but...
599
00:37:22,009 --> 00:37:23,305
...there's no ash.
600
00:37:24,153 --> 00:37:25,191
Why?
601
00:37:26,761 --> 00:37:28,536
Well, I dunno, maybe he knocked it over?
602
00:37:29,232 --> 00:37:32,536
So why not bin the lot?
Why just put the stubs back?
603
00:37:32,975 --> 00:37:36,536
Erm, to make it look like someone
had spent some time there?
604
00:37:37,225 --> 00:37:39,363
And why would someone want you
to believe that?
605
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,656
We've got a few crumbs of evidence,
and...
606
00:37:46,194 --> 00:37:48,786
I want to believe they point
back to Maurice, but...
607
00:37:49,129 --> 00:37:52,105
the ash tray?
The anonymous private detective?
608
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:53,576
The notebook?
609
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,536
They're like the components
of an elaborate story.
610
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,316
And who do we know
who likes to tell stories?
611
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:06,920
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.
612
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:15,040
Will. Inspector. Everything all right?
613
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,736
We've just been on the phone
to your publisher,
614
00:38:19,222 --> 00:38:22,536
who was very keen to point out
the military accuracy in your books
615
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,844
is because of your own experiences.
616
00:38:25,240 --> 00:38:27,748
Of course. Robert and I were both
in military intelligence.
617
00:38:28,262 --> 00:38:29,262
With Derek.
618
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:31,914
What's this about?
619
00:38:32,648 --> 00:38:36,104
You once told me that we both
spend time lining up evidence,
620
00:38:36,129 --> 00:38:38,120
to... to make sense of a crime.
621
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,915
How about we head down the station
and have a go now?
622
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,657
You wrote to Derek
under the guise of "Eric Pritchard"
623
00:38:58,148 --> 00:39:00,719
to elicit a response
that looked like a suicide note.
624
00:39:01,177 --> 00:39:03,833
You then met him at the Cam
and you pushed him in.
625
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,631
You should take up writing novels
yourself, Inspector.
626
00:39:09,575 --> 00:39:11,536
But then Reeny asked me to look into it.
627
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,535
Because Derek had made retirement
plans you had no idea about.
628
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,040
But then she became a suspect herself,
629
00:39:17,065 --> 00:39:19,009
and you had to move the focus elsewhere.
630
00:39:19,402 --> 00:39:21,464
And who was I most set against?
631
00:39:22,018 --> 00:39:25,650
Cue a hastily-faked observation post
at the St Martin's place,
632
00:39:25,971 --> 00:39:28,797
to imply that Derek had hired
a private investigator.
633
00:39:28,822 --> 00:39:31,440
Now it looks like Maurice has
found out Derek was spying on him,
634
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,241
which gives him a motive for revenge.
635
00:39:33,266 --> 00:39:36,074
It's all very... Operation Mincemeat.
636
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,635
Well, it's fascinating. Really.
637
00:39:41,024 --> 00:39:43,481
But you're starting
from a false premise:
638
00:39:43,655 --> 00:39:47,560
what possible motive would I have
for wanting to kill an old friend?
639
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,327
"They sat in that cafe, as people
came and went about their business.
640
00:39:59,352 --> 00:40:04,328
"Just a tablecloth apart, but he saw
now that a world lay between them.
641
00:40:04,619 --> 00:40:08,869
"A continent of things unsaid.
Regrets piled up like mountains."
642
00:40:10,154 --> 00:40:13,425
"She would know nothing of this
world and that terrible loss,
643
00:40:13,450 --> 00:40:16,182
"he knew, was of his own making."
644
00:40:17,156 --> 00:40:19,609
They say you write what you know...
645
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,846
...and you've been in love
with Reeny McArthur for 20 years.
646
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,502
"Righteous and brilliant...
647
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,009
"and changing the world."
648
00:40:40,367 --> 00:40:43,503
She burned with life.
649
00:40:44,153 --> 00:40:47,992
I was so in awe... I could never
find the words to tell her.
650
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:51,772
It's ironic, really.
651
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,149
She married Derek
while I was posted away.
652
00:40:56,912 --> 00:41:00,139
I didn't come back. Not for a long time.
653
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,011
But when I did...
654
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,401
...her fire had...
655
00:41:05,147 --> 00:41:06,123
dimmed.
656
00:41:06,171 --> 00:41:08,171
Oh, give over, Mr Waterhouse.
657
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,972
You're not the first man to miss
the boat with a pretty girl.
658
00:41:13,894 --> 00:41:16,812
That bastard beat her!
659
00:41:17,396 --> 00:41:20,412
He got her and he broke her!
660
00:41:21,285 --> 00:41:22,898
But you would have made her happy?
661
00:41:22,923 --> 00:41:25,899
I worshipped her.
No-one could've made her happier.
662
00:41:26,945 --> 00:41:29,122
I couldn't stand by and do nothing.
663
00:41:29,548 --> 00:41:31,040
Real knight in shining armour.
664
00:41:32,205 --> 00:41:33,536
If I didn't intervene...
665
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,714
You murdered her husband in cold blood.
666
00:41:36,323 --> 00:41:38,021
How very gallant of you.
667
00:41:46,386 --> 00:41:48,030
I think he really did just want to help.
668
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:51,160
How dare he.
669
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,360
How dare he make it his job
to "save me"!
670
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:57,988
I'm so sorry.
671
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,782
I've lost my husband
and now my best friend.
672
00:42:07,329 --> 00:42:08,767
In no time at all.
673
00:42:12,020 --> 00:42:13,996
- Voting day, Iris.
- Afternoon, Reeny.
674
00:42:14,068 --> 00:42:15,276
Come along, now.
675
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:17,890
After you.
676
00:42:27,224 --> 00:42:30,200
- Apologies, after you.
- It's quite all right, I'm just, er,
677
00:42:30,225 --> 00:42:31,634
popping out for a minute.
678
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,430
- Good day?
- Fine.
679
00:42:36,041 --> 00:42:38,041
Well, er, had better.
680
00:42:42,071 --> 00:42:46,071
I'm sorry I called you a...
I'm sorry for what I said.
681
00:42:54,156 --> 00:42:56,514
- Lie to them.
- What?
682
00:42:56,787 --> 00:43:00,107
Please. I can't lose my boy.
683
00:43:20,047 --> 00:43:20,920
Hello, Will.
684
00:43:21,066 --> 00:43:22,536
I've come to give my
statement to Geordie.
685
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,087
You, too? He's in with Mr Finch.
686
00:43:25,359 --> 00:43:26,459
Leonard's here?
687
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,892
So... what is it you'd like to say?
688
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,544
"To thine own self be true."
689
00:43:41,802 --> 00:43:43,329
Isn't that how it goes?
690
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,119
The allegation made by Bryan Stanford...
691
00:43:50,029 --> 00:43:51,231
it's true.
692
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,046
He was not lying about seeing me...
693
00:43:56,220 --> 00:43:58,223
...in bed with another man.
694
00:43:59,175 --> 00:44:00,919
- Leonard...
- Bloody hell.
695
00:44:00,944 --> 00:44:02,632
Why are you telling us this now?
696
00:44:03,957 --> 00:44:05,957
Because it's the truth, Inspector.
697
00:44:09,144 --> 00:44:13,120
- Was this other man Daniel Marlowe?
- No. A stranger.
698
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:17,521
I don't recall a name.
Just a holiday romance.
699
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,560
Then I must charge you with
the crime of gross indecency...
700
00:44:31,830 --> 00:44:33,536
...committed at the Merries Holiday Camp
701
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,533
on 29 August this year.
702
00:44:36,170 --> 00:44:39,037
DC Peters will now escort you
through the charging process.
703
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,784
You're not obliged to say anything
unless you wish to do so.
704
00:44:42,809 --> 00:44:45,536
But what you say
will be taken down in writing
705
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,033
and may be given in evidence.
706
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,536
For your own safety,
and in view of the late hour,
707
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:51,536
you'll stay here overnight
708
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,374
and be taken to the magistrates
in the morning.
709
00:45:37,742 --> 00:45:41,742
