All language subtitles for 2x04 - Episode Four

- What's up?
- I know him. It's that bloke I tasered.

They let him out on bail yesterday.

Look what they've done to Daryl.

This is them lads that you let off
with a caution.

Come on through.
I'm gonna nip this in the bud.

- I will scream.
- You shouldn't have done it!

We've got a bit of a weirdo
doing the rounds.

He's killed three girls.

You need to be aware, all right?

- Leonie, are you listening?
- Yeah.

Are we looking at the same killer?

Yeah, not as frenzied, but yeah.

You killed my mother, you filthy bitch!

You're gonna get what's coming to you!

- Do you wanna go for a drink some time?
- Okay.

She's poison.

She needs putting out of her misery,
that one.

I know we try not to have
nasty thoughts, Frances, but...

It's very good of you
to turn out in the middle of the night.

No, you're fine.

It's just those other two
didn't seem to take it seriously at all.

She's here, love.
And they were both women.

Yeah, they're Specials. Part-timers.
If it's who I think it is.

'Cause my first thought when she rang me
was, "Well, what if it's him?"

So why weren't they thinking
the same thing?

Oh, God knows. Hello, Leonie.

He'd have strangled her.

If she hadn't managed
to raise the alarm,

and if this other lass hadn't been
just round the corner.

Tell me about this other lass.

Um, Kelsey.

She just lives up the road.
I can give you her number.

It was her that rang 999.

Have you got something I can write with?

Leonie.

Listen, love, listen to me.

You're doing really well,
you're being really brave.

So, what's going to happen now
is I'm gonna take a few details.

- Will this do it?
- Ta.

And then, I'm gonna take you
down to the station with me.

You need to make a statement.

Leonie, look at me.

Annette can come with us if you like.
Would you like that?

And then, one of the officers,

one of the other officers,
I can't do it, because I'm not on duty,

but it'll be a woman, it won't be a man.

She'll need to go through
the early evidence kit with you.

That's like your swabs and everything.

And then we'll take you
over to Bradford.

There's a proper unit there
where they can look after you.

Someone will see to you, a doctor.

We'll make sure
that you're safe and you're comfortable.

I've sat her on a plastic bag,
and then, I'm thinking evidence.

Can you talk me through what's happened?

I need to hear it from Leonie.

just, um...

I was on Stoney Royd Lane.

And there were three of us.

And he come along in his van.

And I said... Told him it's five pounds
with, and without, it's double.

So, he knew.

And he said he were fine with that,

so I got in and we went
to the cricket club car park.

- And he stank, he'd been drinking.
- They all do.

And then when he gets going,
he decides he wants to do it without.

They do that.

So I said,
"You have to pay me up front,"

and he goes, "I'll pay after,"

but they only ever say that
when they haven't enough.

I said, "Well, it's not happening then."

And I couldn't stop him.

I was struggling, and then,
he had his hand on my throat.

And he was pressing down on me,
he's inside me without a condom,

and I can't breathe,
and he's a big fella

and I could feel myself
going red in the face.

And he goes,
"If you don't stop wriggling,

"I'm gonna shove
a broken bottle up you."

Oh. Did he, indeed?

God knows how, I managed to press
my stiletto into the steering wheel,

and it were more by luck
than management,

but it made the horn go,

and that shocked the bastard.

Shocked me.

And then,

he smacked me in the face, and he's
spitting and calling me all the usual,

and going, "Get out, get out!"
like nasty...

That's when Kelsey turned up.

And she offered to go to hospital
with her, but these two...

And he's just driven off then or what?

Yeah, when Kelsey
started banging on the window.

These two uniforms,
or Specials, whatever,

they're sayin', "No, we're not
gonna take you, we'll take her,

"because we're not a taxi service."

- Did you tell 'em what he'd said to you?
- They didn't ask.

They didn't take a statement,
they didn't write it down.

Basically, they're just sayin',

"Right, love, has he not paid you then,
boo-hoo."

So, did either of you or Kelsey
recognise him?

Is he someone you've been with before?

No, but she's got his number.
His registration number. Show her.

What sort of vehicle did you say it was?

- A white van.
- A van.

I'm going to take a photo of your arm
on my phone.

And then, I'm going to take you down
to the station in my car,

it's just outside
and 15 yards down the road.

Can you manage that?

It won't be...

It won't be what, love?

Taking swabs. It won't be them two.

It's not gonna be those two that just

dumped her on the doorstep
at the hospital,

and said, "If you're still insisting
in the morning you've been raped,

"come back and report it then."

No.

No, it won't be them two, Leonie.

I'll be dealing with them two.

Oh, you're back.

You've been out for a pizza
and now you're playing pool.

Hiya, Sarge.

- Do you want some?
- Shall I tell you what I've been doing?

I've just briefed the night crew
on an arrest strategy

for a fella that's raped and assaulted
a 19-year-old.

They've just gone
to pick him up just now.

She's gone off
to the Opal Unit in Bradford

so we can get her properly examined.

And now, I'm going to wake
Mr Shepherd up and tell him

I think he might want to look at
this bloke because he might, just might,

be the twisted little bastard
that's been killing prostitutes.

Really?

So what I want to know from you is...
Yes, really.

What I really want to know from you is,

is when you were called out
to assist her,

why you did the absolute
minimum required,

and why her friend's ringing me,
at home at 4:00 in the morning,

to come out and do your job for you.

You dropped her at the hospital doors.
You didn't even see her inside.

She didn't go in after you'd left.

She was too upset,
she was too frightened.

She stood in the cold
for an hour and a half,

frozen rigid,
waiting for a bus to get home!

We were always told to take everything
they said with a pinch of salt,

and it's been a busy night,
we're only just on our meal break

-and we're knocking off in an hour.
-"They"? Prostitutes?

We're talking about
a vulnerable 19-year-old.

Her face was bruised.
Her neck was bruised.

- That isn't someone crying wolf.
- It was dark.

You didn't even take a statement.
I'm just ignoring that.

No, I'm not.
You've got a torch, haven't you?

I've had a go at the night sergeant
for sending a couple of hobby-bobbies

out on a job that needed somebody

with the proper skill set
and a bit more wool on their backs.

And I know it's been a busy night.

But for God's sakes, there's somebody
out there targeting prostitutes.

Did you not think?

You know, you lot, you come in here
and you give us four hours a week.

If we're lucky, if you can be bothered.

The least you can do when you get here
is engage.

I'm sorry, Sergeant.

Right. I'm going home for 40 minutes
to say happy birthday to my grandson,

get changed and then straight back
in here in time for the 8:00 shift.

I'm not reporting you
to Professional Standards

although God knows
why I should be doing.

But, please,
just learn something from it.

You'll need to make statements.
Both of you.

Where've you been?

Oh, I got a phone call.
This lass got raped.

- What lass?
- Nineteen-year-old.

Down in Sowerby Bridge.

Well, what were the night crew doing?

It's long, it's complicated.

What are you doing up?

Oh, I...

I couldn't sleep,
and then, I heard you set off.

I thought you'd gone up to Heptonstall.

- To be with Becky.
- Oh.

No.

No.

I always think about you.
On his birthday.

I know you do.

We'll get through it.

We'll get through today, and then,
we'll get through the next few weeks.

And then...

Big smiles.

Big smiles.

Shut up! Neighbours will complain!

- So what?
- Good.

Are you
going to open the others?

Or are you just going to spend
the rest of your life balancing on that?

- Can I go to school on it?
- Uphill?

- Does that work?
- It's not all uphill.

Oh, no. If you're going in the
opposite direction, it's downhill.

Stop trying to blind everybody
with science.

Open your cards.
These might be stashed with moolah.

Who's this one from again?

I've no idea, I told you, it was
on the doorstep, 6:30 this morning.

It's big. I can tell you that much.

Let's get ripping,
I've got to go to work in five minutes.

This is from me.

- I know what that is.
- Sort you asked for.

Took me best part of a week
to wrap that up,

and I got through
about 16 rolls of Cellotape.

Who's this one from again, Gran?

I've just said, I don't know.
It was on the doorstep.

Rip it!

Wow!

- Blimey.
- Oh, my God. Look at that.

- I think that might be from me.
- Is it?

Yeah. Yeah.

I got up early
specially to go and put it outside.

He's lying.

Actually, I think it might be for me.

I think they've put the wrong name on
by mistake,

I think they've got our birthdays
mixed up.

That's...

Whoa! Who's it from?

I'm gonna start speaking Urdu soon,
then people might understand me better.

We don't know.

Calm down, dear.

- Was there a card with it?
- No.

Not unless next door's cat's had it.

You know, that's about like
150 quid's worth of kit, though.

Nevison. Nevison Gallagher.

Sean Balmforth. Date of birth, 17-11-85.
Twenty-nine years old.

Address, 34 Burley Road, Illingworth.

He's got a string of convictions,
and he's on the sex offenders' register.

Unlawful sexual intercourse
with a 14-year-old.

That was 10 years ago.

And his Van's been seized in connection

with the assault and rape
of this girl in the early hours.

Forensics are across it.
I've spoken to the supervisor,

and they're aware that
we're looking at him for other things.

On an initial visual inspection,

they've told me
they've found rope in the back.

Nylon rope. Three separate lengths.

There was also
a couple of bags of rubbish in there,

containing, amongst other things,
a number of beer bottles,

some of which are of the same brand
as those found at the site

where Ana Vasalescu was found
and where Vicky Fleming was found.

So, once they've charged him over
this business this morning,

we'll step in and see if he'd like
to have a conversation with us.

Arresting him?

Uh, well,
I'll run everything past the CPS,

and depending on what else
we dig up between now and then,

yeah. We've got reasonable grounds.

I've got Polsa going through his house
on a Section 18,

we'll get his phone back
from the Opal Unit

as soon as they've got
whatever they want from it.

Let's start tracking his movements
over the last five months.

Working backwards.

I want to know everything
there is to know about this fella.

I want a list of all his contacts,
his family, his friends,

I want a picture of his daily routine,
his lifestyle.

Any employment.

Any access to other vehicles
besides this one we've seized.

Bank details, where he's drawn money out
and when.

John, Steve, Jodie,

can we talk through
an interview strategy

in my office in a minute or two?

John!

Have you got a second?

Telecoms found your name and number
in Vicky Fleming's mobile phone.

Do you know? I had a funny feeling.
I wasn't certain, but, um...

Two years, eighteen months since,

I was working on a fraud investigation
at the building society,

and she was...

She was the point of contact.

So yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I'd have given her my number.

Blimey.

Mind you, who haven't I given
my number to over the years.

I don't think
I spoke to her more than once or twice.

You should've said.

I wasn't convinced it was her.

I couldn't have told you her name
if you'd been asking me to remember.

Maybe if she'd been working
at the building society now,

it'd have rung a bell, but...

So, that's the only contact
you've ever had with her?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay. Can you make a statement
to that effect and then it's covered?

Yeah, sure.

So, do you think this is the fella?

You know as much as me at the minute.

John, is everything all right at home?

- I've kept meaning to ask.
- Yeah.

Well, you know.

Slings and arrows.

Well, you know this door's always open,
don't you?

Yeah.

I mean, except when it's shut.

Sure.

Hey, how was your date?
With your little job-pissed PCSO?

What date?

What date?

Ann!

Somebody's in bother.

You all right, love?
You're pale. You're quiet.

- I'm fine.
- Yeah?

I'm just...
I'm wondering if I'm starting with flu.

Right. Well, don't overdo it.

If you start to feel like crap,
you need to be at home. Yeah?

Yeah.

Your dad knows
Sean Balmforth, doesn't he?

Who?

This fella we picked up last night.
He works for your dad.

Does he?

I don't know. I don't know
half the people who work for my dad.

You don't know anything about
what he's like then?

- Ask me dad.
- Well, they'll interview him. That lot.

I just thought you might know him.
I was just being nosey.

Ah! My two favourite women in uniform!

No. I'm talking to you.

Singing your praises
upstairs this morning, Mr Shepherd.

"Good old-fashioned police work."
Picking up this fella last night.

And you.
Identifying Vicky Fleming last week.

You both made me look really good
in there today. Well done!

It's the only reason I do anything
is to make you look good, sir.

And not a hint of sarcasm.

Oh, as well.

I had a phone call from H-MIT
last night. Goran Dragovic, death of.

They're now pursuing it as murder.
Not suicide.

- Really?
- Yup.

- Really?
- Is that that fella we found hanged?

Yeah.

So, who're they pursuing then?
The Knezevics?

Well, wouldn't that be lovely.

To actually pin something
on one of the Knezevics.

They won't have got their own hands
mucky, of course, but, you know.

Anything we can do
to disrupt their operations

and get that bit closer.

Every little helps. Chipping away.

Anyway, yeah. Well done! Both of you.

- Who are the Knezevics?
- Well, they're...

You know how New jersey
has the Sopranos?

Well, Halifax has the Knezevics.

And they ain't no choirboys either.

- How is Ilinka?
- Fine.

I wish she'd make her mind up
to go home though.

I'm sick of sleeping
in that conservatory.

You're mad.

You and your dad, or just your dad,

he didn't send our Ryan

a ridiculously expensive
birthday present this morning, did he?

Not that I know of.

You do realise it's 8:50?

No, it's not, it's... Ooh!

- Are you dropping him off?
- Yeah, yeah. Come on, turn it off.

Ryan. Off.

Ryan. Ry...

I'm switching it off.

Why do I have to go to school
on my birthday?

You're going to be late.
On your birthday.

Come on. You can play with it
as much as you want at tea time.

- Have a nice day.
- Where's me dinner gone?

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Bye. Bye.
- Bye.

What a piece of shit.

Here he is, look!

You all right, Flash?

What were you doing
grassing us up to the police?

We were only having
a bit of fun with you.

No need to grass us up to the 5-0.

- We're your mates.
- Only mates you'll ever have.

'- Oops.

- Nice trip.
- Go on, pick your stuff up.

He doesn't say much, does he?

You don't say much, Flash?

Yeah, like how about, "Sorry, lads,
sorry for grassing you up to the Feds.

"Sorry for being such a sad little twat,
such a sad little mummy's-boy twat."

Is it true
you shag your own mother, Flash?

Does he?

He doesn't want to, but she makes him
because she's an ooer.

I heard he shags sheep.

In fact he does that and all,

but can't tell the difference
up there in the dark?

- Can you not?
- Can he not?

Well, can you not, Flash?

What are you doing? Take it easy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Relax, Flash.
Flash, stop, put it down.

Put it down!

Afternoon.

He's in here.

How you doing there, Daryl?

- I don't know what's happened exactly...
- I think Daryl knows why we're here.

Don't you, Daryl? Hmm?

I know he gets provoked.

They might have all been charged,
that lot, but they're all out on bail,

every one of 'em,

and he still has to go down there
and buy his tobacco and his filters.

Let's turn this telly off, Daryl.

Come on, this is serious.

If he has done something, it can't be
worse than what they've done to him.

So, you know what's happened
this morning, Daryl? Yeah?

We've had a report
you've been involved in an altercation,

and you've been to your car
and you've pulled out a lump hammer.

- Has he?
- And you've attacked people.

And you know,
that's an arrestable offence, isn't it?

Having an offensive weapon
in a public place...

- He'd never...
- It's all on CCTV.

So, Daryl, I'm arresting you.
Do you understand?

You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defence

if you do not mention when questioned

something which you later
rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

- Could you stand up, please?
- They start it.

- Every time.
- Yeah, I know.

But what's happened has happened now,
and you can put your side of it across

when you're interviewed, so come on.

Come on, stand up,
let's get it over with for you.

- Where you taking him?
- Halifax.

Shall I follow on in my car?

I wouldn't. You'll only be sat outside
for hours waiting.

- He needs someone with him.
- You won't be allowed in with him.

- Why?
- Because he's under arrest.

Well, how long will he be?

How long is a piece of string?

Well, what am I supposed to do?

I'll get someone to ring you to come and
pick him up when we're done with him.

Where's your car keys, Daryl?

Here.

It's on the floor in the passenger seat.

Nine-two-four-two, I've got a 112
for possession of an offensive weapon.

I'm on my way with him.

Okay, Sean.

You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defence

if you do not mention now something
which you later rely on in court.

Anything you do say
will be given in evidence.

You are charged
on the 12th of September,

2015, in Sowerby Bridge,

that you intentionally penetrated
the vagina of a woman with your penis

when she did not consent,

and you did not reasonably believe
that she was consenting,

contrary to Section 1
of the Sexual Offences Act 2003.

You are also charged on the 12th
of September, 2015, in Sowerby Bridge,

that you assaulted the same woman,
causing her actual bodily harm.

Contrary to Section 47 of the
Offences against the Person Act 1861.

Have you anything you'd like to say?

I paid her, she's a prostitute.

Just wait there for me, please. Ma'am.

Hello, Sean. I'm Detective
Inspector Shackleton, H-MIT,

and I'm arresting you
on suspicion of the murder

of Ana Vasalescu, Aurelija Petrovic,
Lynn Dewhurst and Victoria Fleming.

- What?
- You do not have to say anything,

but it may harm your defence
if you do not mention when questioned...

What you talking about?

...something which you later
rely on in court.

Anything you do say
may be given in evidence.

No. No, no, no!
You can't fit me up for everything!

You're going back to your cell now,
Sean, and I'm gonna...

Do something! Say something!

You're going back
to your cell now, Sean.

I'm not going back to my cell,
I'm not going anywhere, I'm going home!

...conversation with your solicitor.
Okay?

It's not shitting okay!
I don't know who them people are!

Who are they?
Who are they? Who are they?

This Daryl lad's
kicking off downstairs.

He won't have his DNA
or his fingerprints done.

They thought
you might like to have a crack

at persuading him before they force him.

Now then, Daryl.
Why aren't you co-operating?

You said you were gonna deal with 'em,

you said you were gonna
nip it in the bud.

I shouldn't even be here.

Well, they were arrested and charged
and they'll be up in court

in the next few weeks, and I'll go
up there and speak to 'em again,

but you know,
with the best will in the world,

there's only so much we can do,
and frankly,

this sort of silly business
doesn't help,

because it just perpetuates
the bad feeling.

- They're animals.
- Yup.

They shouldn't be allowed to walk,
they shouldn't be allowed to exist,

they shouldn't be allowed to breathe.

And now, you've gone and shattered

one of their collar bones
with a lump hammer.

Are you gonna let me do this?

It doesn't hurt.

We're back!

There's a card on the mantelpiece, Ryan!
I found it in that box!

Who's it from?

I didn't open it,
it wasn't addressed to me.

- Do you want some tea?
- Yeah.

Gran, you race that one,
I'll race this one.

Are you going to open this card
and see who it's from?

'Cause whoever it is,
I think you need to send them

a note to say a very big thank you,
don't you?

- Yeah, you open it.
- It's not addressed to me.

I'm giving you permission.
Come on, hurry up, I'm gonna beat you.

There's a year's supply of birthday cake
in the kitchen if anybody's interested.

Right!

- Get that dismantled.
- What you doing?

What's up, Catherine?

Get it back in that box. It's going
in the bin! Straight in the bin!

We can't keep it, I'm sorry.

- Bastard.
- Why not? What you on about?

- Oh, my God.
- Bastard.

- What's up?
- Your granny's right, we can't keep it.

What do you mean "we"?
It's not yours, it's mine!

It is either him or some nasty bastard
playing stupid dumb little games.

- What is? What is?
- It's from your dad.

Yeah, just get a bin bag.

- I'm sorry.
- No.

You can't throw away my things!
This is mine!

He's not allowed
to have any contact with you!

This is illegal.
It's bad, it's wrong, it's evil.

He's trying to mess about with us!

- It's a Scalextric!
- Exactly!

- She's mental.
- Yeah. Yeah!

I am mental. I am mental
when it comes to that bastard.

Look. He can't have
put it there himself. Can he?

No. No. No.

- We'd know about it if he'd escaped.
- Yeah, but someone...

Some twisted little git
has done it for him.

- You're not binning it!
- I'll buy you a new one!

- I want this one!
- No.

No, no, no. No way.

I'll buy you another one.
I'll buy you one exactly like it.

Why? You can't stop him
sending me things!

No! Ryan! I can!

See, this is the man that terrified you,
that traumatised you,

that poured petrol over you,
that put me in hospital for four weeks,

that murdered...

You see, this is what
he wants. He wants you and me shouting.

He wants you to hate me!

So, as you'll understand
from the disclosures

we've made to your solicitor, Sean,

we're investigating
the deaths of four women.

Ana Vasalescu, Aurelija Petrovic,
Lynn Dewhurst and Victoria Fleming.

Sean's prepared a statement.
If I could read it out.

Oh.

Please do.

"I have been asked to account
for my whereabouts

"at four different periods of time
across several days.

"I cannot at this moment in time verify

"my exact whereabouts on any of the
dates and times in question,

"particularly the first three,

"as they are all
some considerable time ago.

"But I would like to state clearly

"that I do not know Ana Vasalescu,
Aurelija Petrovic,

"Lynn Dewhurst or Victoria Fleming,

"and to my knowledge, have never met

"or come into contact with them
in the past."

Okay. That's very helpful, Sean,

but we do still need to ask you
some questions. Okay?

No comment.

I shouldn't have said anything.
I should've just got rid of the card.

He'd never have said anything.

He wasn't the least bit interested
in who it was from.

I should've just said Nevison
and squared it with Nevison.

He'd not have minded,
have been pleased to help.

You did the right thing.
I think Ryan's realised that himself.

Insidious bastard.
Who's he got doing that for him?

We don't know, do we?

We don't know
it's not just some random nasty sod.

Well, it's someone who knows us,

or else, why would they know
when his birthday is?

We're going round in circles.

Could you not
just take it to a charity shop

rather than put it in the bin?

I'm taking it to work.
The card, the wrapping, the box.

See if I can't persuade Mike to send it
all off for ninhydrin testing,

see if we can't get some fingerprints.

It's a sick trick, whoever's clone it.

Never goes away, does it?

He'll never go away.

Everything all right?

He's fine.

He wants you to go up and kiss him.

Sorry.

- Is she all right?
- Yeah.

It's just, you know,
such an odd situation we're in with him.

...as they have been
throughout this complex investigation

that they will bring the offender
to justice.

They've got someone for those murders
by the look of it.

Yup. Guess who got him arrested.

She didn't.

Have they charged him?

No, not yet.
I think they're still questioning him.

huge breakthrough for detectives
working on a spate of murders

which have shocked
the local community...

You're stopping tonight, aren't you?

The police have said that they are
very keen to reassure the public,

as they have been
throughout this complex...

I knew Vicky Fleming.

That woman.

- Did you?
- Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

It was her I was having a fling with.

When everything went wrong for me.

I used to work with her
up at the building society.

- What was she like?
- Horrible.

Really?

Really?

Are you all right?

You won't tell Catherine, will you?

No.

God, I feel nauseated
just thinking about it.

I thought I was in love with her.

Well, I was, I was in love with her.
just very short-lived.

She was like this...

She was very attractive.

But eventually I realised that
she was something missing from up here.

She kept going on wanting me
to leave Sue and kids.

I couldn't.

Which really

shouldn't have started
in the first place, I know that,

but I wasn't ready
to leave my family for her.

And she kept,
she kept pushing and pushing,

and eventually, I said no. I said no.

If it came to the crunch,
I'd be stopping with Sue and the kids.

And so, she blackmailed me.

Blackmailed?

Yeah, for a few weeks.

And then I said
I wouldn't pay her any more, I couldn't.

She wanted 100 quid a week.
Every week. Or she'd tell Sue.

I managed a few weeks, but then

I thought, "I don't wanna
live like this any more."

So...

She...

What? She what?

Humiliated me.

So, at the minute,
he's provided no alibis.

Well, no useful alibis.

We're building up a picture of a loner,
with a fairly chaotic sort of lifestyle.

He was working recently as a driver,

but he got sacked
for drinking and aggressive behaviour.

The good news this morning.
From Forensics,

we've got strands of hair matching that
of Ana Vasalescu found in his van.

He's denied knowing Ana, so let's see
what he's got to say about that.

Telecoms. Lynn Dewhurst's mobile number
was found in his contacts on his phone.

And again, he's denied knowing her,

so let's see if he can
enlighten us there.

Then AN PR puts him, well, puts his van,

within a mile
of where the bodies were found

on the second and the fourth murders,
Aurelija and Vicky.

We've also got a witness
from a house-to-house

reporting seeing a white van in the area
around the time Ana was murdered.

There was an appeal in the media

for the driver to come forward,
no one did.

A white van was also reported
in the vicinity

prior to Vicky Fleming's flat
being torched.

So, let's get back up to Halifax,

see if he's got anything
he'd like to share with us today. Hmm?

Am I overreacting?

He tried to kill you, Catherine.
You're not overreacting.

We'll send it all off for fingerprints,

and I'll ring the prison liaison officer
to talk to someone at Gravesend.

Let's... Let's find out who visits him,

who he writes to,
who he has phone calls with.

If he's behind it, he'll be dealt with.

And if it's a crank,

it's a shame
they've got nothing better to do.

Try not to let it get you down.

- It's just this week... It's always...
- I know.

- It's bad enough without...
- I know. I know.

I do know.

Did you have a nice birthday yesterday?

Yeah, it was okay.

What did you get?

Skateboard, elbow pads,

knee pads, helmet.

New football.

- Twenty quid off my Uncle Daniel.
- Yeah.

Thirty quid off me granny
and me Auntie Ros.

That's 50 quid.

Vinnie, of course, made me a cake,
as well as me Auntie Clare,

so that's two cakes.

And I got a Scalextric,
but me granny put it in the bin.

Why?

Because it were from me dad.

Oh, no.

And how do you feel about that?

I don't know.

I really wanted to play with it,
but I could see how upset she was.

Gosh, that must've cost a lot of money.

Yeah, me Uncle Daniel said
he wanted one.

Mmm.

Perhaps... I don't know.

It's his way of trying to tell you
how sorry he is about what happened.

- Do you think he is?
- Well, why else would he send it?

I don't think they get very much money
in prison.

It must have meant a lot to him
to do that.

You know,
after that last conversation we had,

I gauged your dad.

And I can't believe he was responsible

for half the things
he was sent to prison for.

Why?

Well, because he has such a kind face.

- Here you are.
- Ta.

You know, I'm just suggesting
that it's odd. john?

For someone
with such a disorganised lifestyle,

who lives in chaos and squalor,

spends half his life
pissed out of his tiny fucking skull,

not to leave any DNA
on any of the sites.

Are we really believing that
this lad is that forensically aware?

- And that capable?
- You don't know these days.

Lonely little twisted mind like that's

probably absorbed every episode of CS]
they've ever shot.

Well, that aside, boss,

what I still can't square
is Vicky Fleming.

Vicky was not a prostitute.

There are significant differences,

and we've made this leap,
we've made an assumption...

I'm ruling nothing out.

He must have been in that flat.
He must have burnt that flat down.

I don't care what the fire service says.
It's just...

It's too much of a coincidence,

what, to be an oil lamp
that she's left on.

Come on, he was burning evidence.
And that is so different from...

Well, that is someone who knows her.

It's personal, right?
And the others, they weren't personal.

I need you to explain why,
and it's two things we've uncovered.

Yesterday, you told us
that you never met Ana Vasalescu.

Do you remember?

You also told us that no one else

had driven your van
in the last six months.

Yeah?

So, Sean,

can you tell me what your response is

if I tell you that our forensic people
have found

strands of Ana Vasalescu's hair,
her DNA, in your van?

No comment.

Hmm.

And yesterday, you told us
that you don't know Lynn Dewhurst.

Do you remember?

Could you explain to me why then, Sean,

you've got Lynn Dewhurst's
mobile phone number

in your contacts on your mobile phone?

No comment.

When I said lunch, I had somewhere
a bit more salubrious in mind.

I've only got 15 minutes.

How are you?

How are you?

I'm all right.
I'll cut to the chase, eh?

Can I have some tea, love,
and a fish finger buttie?

- Are you eating?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'll have the same. Thanks.

It's a bit like speed dating, isn't it?
Not that I've ever been speed dating.

Or that we're dating, obviously.
But I've seen it on the telly.

Tell me about Sean Balmforth.

Oh.

Really?

All day, yesterday, your lot, well,
the best part of two hours going...

- What do you know?
- Nothing. I told them.

Only, except,
I wouldn't put it past him.

Which is a pretty damning thing
to say about somebody, isn't it?

- Really?
- Well, God knows.

Helen never gave up on anybody. Ever.

We condemn the sin, not the sinner.
But Sean...

He's a sad lad.

'Course, it's nothing to do with me,
I'm just being nosey.

- How's our Annie getting on?
- Really well.

- She's a smart kid.
- Good.

- How's things at home?
- Oh, good.

- Good.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- She's drinking, isn't she?

Last thing I want to do
is get her into trouble.

You won't. Not with me.

That's why I rang you.

I don't know why she started again.

One minute, she was all, you know,

"I'm gonna be a regular,
I'm gonna be a detective,

"I'm gonna sail through the ranks."

And I thought she'd taken to it
like a duck to water.

And she was thrilled to bits

when she made that connection
with the Vicky Fleming woman.

And then...

She used to drink a lot. At college.

Daft amount, you know,
like they do, students.

She got alcohol poisoning once.

Silly poppet.

But then, when Helen became ill,
she seemed to stop.

Overnight, she became very sensible.

All through the illness,
even after what happened

last year with them weirdos.

So, I don't know
if something's happened at work.

Not that I know of.

- Has somebody upset her?
- Have you asked her?

She doesn't talk to me about stuff.

I mean, she might have had
a conversation

with Helen about it, not me.

Does she drink with other people? Or...

No, it's all been on her own at home.

Okay.

Happen she needs a good night out.

Yeah. Well, we could all
do with one of them, couldn't we?

I'll talk to her.

Are you all right?

It was Ryan's birthday yesterday.

Becky died six weeks after he was born,
so, you know...

It's just something we have to
get through in our house.

I was thinking.
You know, what you told me last night.

Yeah?

I've said I won't say anything to our
Catherine, and I shan't, I've promised.

But don't you think
you should tell the police?

I'm just thinking
that whoever killed her...

She might have been blackmailing him.

But isn't this bloke a serial killer?

On the news they're saying

she didn't fit the same profile
as the others.

It might be
a different killer to the others

and they need to know that.

Look, the police obviously
don't think that, they've linked 'em.

And they've got this fella
in custody now anyway, so...

Yeah, but what if... What if...

I don't know.

Look, if I went down there
and offered them information,

first of all they'd think I was a crank.

And they'd be laughing at me.

And then I'd have to go through it all.

Again and again and again.

You don't know
what that does to me, Clare.

Hi, love.

Sarge, have you got a minute?

Hello, Steph.

I think I've decided
that I should resign.

I've spoken
to the Specials liaison officer.

I don't think you should resign.

Well, it looks like
they're gonna charge this bloke.

Does it?

Well, they've had him
in custody for two days.

I've just heard they're applying to the
magistrate for a three-day lie down now,

and I'd have let him
slip through my fingers, so yeah.

Steph, how long
have you been in the job?

Specials, about six months.

You made a mistake.

I suspect you listened to Bryony,
who is a lazy sod,

and whose first and last instinct
is to do the minimum.

She's the one who should be
offering to resign, not you.

She's been in the job five years

and she knows no more now
than she did then.

I suspect you wanted to do more,
but you let yourself be led by her.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Go with your own instincts in future,
stick your neck out now and again.

Yeah, Leonie's a prostitute,

but she's also a vulnerable 19-year-old
who is where she is

because she's had a shit life.

Don't resign.

I'll be really pissed off if you resign.

Last week, in assembly,
Mrs Beresford was on about forgiveness.

Was she?

She said that we had to find it
in our hearts to forgive people things.

Good.

Especially
if they say they're sorry.

That's right.

However angry or upset we might feel.

Well, yeah.

There you go, eh?

So, I was thinking, maybe it was
his way of trying to say sorry.

For what he did.

Sending me that Scalextric.

Me dad.

Ryan, you've got to stop
calling him your dad.

You've got to stop thinking
about this man as your dad.

A dad is someone who's there.

Every day.

Someone who cares about you,
who loves you,

who helps you, who shows you how to

tie your laces, and pump up your tyres,
someone who can take you places,

someone who knows who you are.

It's not someone who lies to you
about living on a narrow boat

and pours petrol over you

and kicks the living daylights
out of your grandmother.

But perhaps he would've liked
to have done them things with me.

- If he hadn't been in prison.
- Yeah, but, Ryan,

perhaps if he was the kind of man
who cared about other people enough,

he'd never have been in prison
in the first place.

Amanda!

Bollocks!

Ben, open the door.

Kids, in the other room,
come on.

I don't think it's fair
to shut him out, he lives here, too.

Go in there. Ben.

Go on in there.

- Where will he go?
- Amanda!

He'll be fine, he'll go to his mother's.
Go in there. Both of you.

I don't want him not to be here.
Even if he's a pig.

Amanda!

Go in there, both of you.

Oh, bollocks!

You're upsetting these children!

I'm upsetting 'em?
You're the one who's upsetting them!

You need to leave us alone.
You need to go away.

- Fuck you!
- Fuck you!

Fuck you!

Come on, let's get you inside.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you all right?

I'm sorry that
I get wound up about stuff, but...

It's only 'cause I love you
and I care about you.

- You know that, don't you?
- Yup.

All right, come on.

Love you.

I love you.

Night-night.

Night-night.

What's happened
to the front of your car?

Just... I scraped a wall.

I hope you weren't drinking and driving,
were you?

You will get caught, you know, Daryl.

And who's going
to pay for that getting fixed?

It's all right, it still goes.

It won't pass its MOT, love,
not like that.

And what if you'd hit someone?

- What've you got for me?
- I think you'll be pleased.

I didn't, and I told you
I wouldn't do anything illegal.

You're not gonna tell me
you didn't do it.

I did do something.

Did you know it was his birthday,
the day before yesterday?

I only found out two days before.

He was 10.

Ten years old.

- Okay.
- So, I sent him a present.

I left it on the doorstep
with a card inside from you.

It was expensive,
something I knew he'd like.

Racing cars.

And he did.

Of course,
she wanted to put it in the bin

when she knew it was from you.

And she did put it in the bin,
and of course that made him angry.

- And upset.
- How do you know?

He told me.

And it's made him
start to ask even more questions.

I suggested to him that you sent it
because you're sorry for what you did.

I think that's a very powerful message.

If we can subtly undermine all the
messages she reinforces every day.

It may be a slow process,
but if we persist, and we will,

-surely that's better...
- I don't understand.

okay-

Am I being thick?

Or are you just not getting the fact
that there's been a development?

This bitch, this nasty, ugly whore.

Sorry, but she...

She's killed my mother.

And you think buying him expensive toys
is some sort of solution?

I don't know that I can do anything
about what she did to your mother.

- What I can do with Ryan...
- That is what I've asked you to do.

It may not have been her.

They've arrested someone.

I know they've arrested someone.
I saw it on the news.

Frances, so what?

Frances.

You're sweet, but you're naive.

She has killed my mother to piss on me
just 'cause she can.

Like me living in this shithole
isn't enough for her.

And she has disguised it
by killing them others first.

And now her little police buddies
are helping her cover it up

by arresting some no-mates
who they can pin anything on.

Do you really believe
they could do that?

What? I don't know
what else to say to you.

You've led a sheltered life,
it's not your fault.

It's why you're so good and kind.

It's why you always
see the best in people.

Frances.

But some people, and she's one of 'em,

they're craftier
than you'd ever give 'em credit for.

And they get themselves
into positions of authority

so they can get away with stuff.

I don't know what else to say.

I thought you got it.

The priority for me
is working towards Ryan

not accepting
the demonised version of you,

that she reinforced...

Well, the best way to achieve that.

I told him I didn't believe you did

half of what you were sent down for...

As far as I'm concerned,
the best way to achieve that...

He thought about it, and it sank in.

...is to remove her from the picture.

Reinforce that.

But what you're suggesting
is illegal and I made it clear...

Fuck illegal.

When has doing anything legally
got anybody like me anywhere?

Frances, you're going to have to do
what I've asked you to do.

Or what I'm thinking is...

This...

You and me...

It's not going to work. I'm sorry.

I thought you understood me.
I really did.

I do. I do understand you,
don't say that, please.

Please, I understand you
better than anyone.

Well, do you understand
what I'm saying then?

- I...
- Nothing is illegal.

It's just a word
people use to control other people with.

She has stolen my son
and murdered my mother.

That is illegal
but nobody's raised an eyebrow.

And believe me,

it's not that lad they've arrested
that's killed these women.

Look at him.
Picture of him on the telly.

He hasn't got it in him.

Frances.

If you're not on my side, who is?

What would you like me to do?

I'd like you to use your imagination.

- I have been doing...
- Yeah, yeah, brilliantly.

I was so impressed,
the way you got into that school.

But I need more.

I need you to take it further.

I wasn't anticipating
any more than you were.

I didn't know she was gonna go
out of her way to target my mother.

But she did.

And now they're gonna go
out of their way to let her walk,

and I can't do anything.

But you can.

If our two hearts do beat as one,
and I like to think that they do,

then you know what I want.

You know what I want, Frances.
