All language subtitles for Line of Duty (2012) - S02E03 - Episode 3 (1080p BluRay x265 r00t).en

- DI Denton.
- DS Jayne Akers, requesting urgent assistance.

Immediate and credible threat to life.

I need a safe
and available destination ASAP.

There's been an attack on the police.

Three of our colleagues have lost their lives
in the line of duty.

- You called me that night.
- Yes, sir.

I shouldn't have even been
on duty that night.

I'd do anything not to have
picked up that call

because for all I know it's going to take away
the one good thing in my life

and that is being a police officer.

I'm heading up a newly-formed unit
that's taken over the search for Carly Kirk.

- DS Arnott, AC-12.
- Boss.

People have underestimated me my whole life.

I'll open up Witness Protection
to your team.

There's a DI in AC-9.

He's your man. You'll second him.

As you wish, sir.

Whatever it takes to nail those bastards.

Your call history
makes for very interesting reading.

The night of the ambush
she called me to call you.

To say what?

For you to call her
about the case she was working on.

This is the home under protective custody...

of Staff Nurse Claire Tindal.

You interviewed her in connection with events
at the hospital. There are more photos.

The protected witness.
The wee gobshite this was all about.

Christ.

DI Denton, I'm arresting you
for conspiracy to murder a protected witness.

What was in the Witness Protection files?

Oh, my God. Was it someone you knew?

I'm innocent. You know I am.

All rise.

Remain standing.

Are you Lindsay Elizabeth Denton?

- Yes.
- Please speak up so we can hear you.

Yes.

Sit down, Miss Denton.

Morning, Miss Attler.

Your Honour, the defendant
is charged with conspiracy to murder.

This is a very serious charge

arising from a complex investigation
by Anti-Corruption Unit 12.

A 36-year-old woman
has been charged with conspiracy to murder.

There are rumours the victim
was a protected witness

granted immunity from prosecution.

No further details
will be disclosed at present.

The charging of the 36-year-old woman
is a highly significant breakthrough.

And we're confident
that more arrests will follow.

- Ronson from the Evening Post.
- Thanks.

Do you think the Witness Protection Scheme
is fit for purpose?

No comment.

Thank you all.

Well handled, sir.

Cheers, Les.

Champion.

You the new media manager?

- Jo.
- New Jo.

- Have you got a minute?
- Sure.

There's a false speeding story about me.

With this arrest, sir, it's dead.

Good. A stupid pointless distraction.

Oh, and civilians
don't have to call me "sir".

I'd feel uncomfortable
not respecting your rank.

OK. Great.

- Is there to be a bail application?
- Yes, Your Honour.

Your Honour, the Prosecution opposes bail
on the following grounds.

The seriousness of the offence.

The defendant has the means and knowledge
to abscond from justice.

Your Honour, the defendant
is a serving police officer of excellent standing.

She has no desire to abscond.

She intends to clear her name.

I'm refusing bail.

You will be remanded in custody
until the 18th of November.

All rise.

What about Bella?

Has anyone got an evidence bag for this?

Answering only yes or no,
do you understand spoken English?

Yes.

Answering only yes or no,
are you Lindsay Elizabeth Denton?

Yes.

Answering only yes or no, are you currently
suffering from an infectious disease?

No.

Answering only yes or no, are you suffering
from a sexually transmitted disease?

No.

Answering only yes or no,
are you or could you be pregnant?

No.

You'll reside in the Vulnerable Persons Unit.
You'll be in a cell on your own

and you will have minimal association
with the other residents.

- Answering only yes or no, do you understand?
- Yes!

When an offender management officer
enters your cell,

she'll order you to move away from the door.

Answering only yes or no, do you understand?

Yeah.

If you maintain good behaviour,
you may request a television set

at a cost of two pounds per week
to be taken out of your allowance.

Can I request a piano keyboard, please?

Answering only yes or no,
would you like to request a television set?

No.

Move away from the door.

Oh, what's that tosser doing here?

Buggered if I know.

Morning, you two.

Morning, sir.

Sir, what's he doing here?

Yeah.

Look, our investigation
has expanded into Witness Protection.

The Deputy Chief Constable
ordered me to bring on a specialist from AC-9.

Those bastards keep us out.

AC-9 did not make the call, Steve.

"Dot" Cottan certainly
did not make the call.

This has come directly from
the office of the Deputy Chief Constable.

- I'm not saying you should have run it by us.
- I'm glad you're not,

because that shows you're not confused
about who's in charge here.

Come on. Give him a chance.

When Gates' team was disbanded,

Cottan went on to distinguish himself,
got promoted

and he was the only officer in that unit

prepared to stand up
and give evidence against his boss.

He's a born anti-corruption officer:
poacher turned gamekeeper.

Move away from the door.

The dirty bastards put shit in my food.
Don't you people check?

Answering yes or no, don't you people check?

The target of the 5th of September ambush
was a protected witness.

To fill you in on the details,
I'd like to introduce you to DI Matthew Cottan.

- Thank you, Matt.
- Thanks, sir.

In June of 2012,

a double murder at Greek Lane Moss Heath

that was originally thought
to have been drug-related

was re-crimed as a terrorist incident.

And this individual is John Thomas Hunter.

He used the name Tommy
and had proven links with organised crime.

Tommy co-operated with the investigation
into the Greek Lane terror incident

in return for immunity from prosecution.

Tommy was the target of the ambush.

Having been enrolled
in the Witness Protection Programme,

he was given a new identity as Alex Campbell

and relocated to a safe house
at 12 St James' Close.

On the night of September 5th,

his Witness Protection Officer,
DS Jayne Akers,

notified an immediate threat
against her witness

and attempted to move him
into safe custody at 4th Street Station.

As we all know, Akers was killed
and the witness received critical injuries.

A second successful attempt on his life

was made at the General Hospital
nine days later.

- Yes?
- No prosecutions resulted from

the Greek Lane counter-terror op.

Well, as a result, as I was going on to say,

the witness's immunity was in jeopardy.

The only way for him to stay
out of prison was for him to prove his value.

So you think this got back to
the witness's criminal associates,

which prompted their plan to silence him?

Exactly that, sir, yeah.

DS Akers was the person
closest to the witness,

trusted by him.

So if he was going to name names,
she'd be the one to know.

What?

DS Akers was killed in the ambush.

How would it fit that she betrayed Tommy?

Well, unknown to Akers, she may
also have been the target of the ambush,

killed for her silence.

Sounds like a guess.

I'd call it a working hypothesis.

We've charged DI Lindsay Denton.

AC-9 wouldn't happen to be sitting on
a connection between Tommy and Denton?

- Not that I know of.
- Yet.

Which is why we are pooling our resources.

- Thank you, Matthew.
- Sir.

Assignments in respect of the foregoing
will come via me or DI Cottan.

Thank you. That is all.

Before you go, we've got some handouts
should anybody want one.

For Christ's sake...

- Thanks.
- OK.

Go in and take a seat
and your event will commence shortly.

Hello, Inspector. How are you?

Mm. Tickety-boo.

I need to conduct a further interview in regard
to the ambush on the night of September 5th.

You remain under caution.

There are strict rules
for post-charge interview.

One of which is for the detainee
to have put to them

information which has come to light
since they were charged.

In the interests of justice.

Go on.

Who was DS Akers' protected witness?

I don't know. I never knew.

You never saw him? Never heard a name?

No.

Have you ever seen this man before?

No.

Fine. Have it your own way.

Is that the new information?

Was that the witness?

Fine. End of conversation.

Why didn't you reveal to Hastings and Arnott

I'd received a call off DS Akers' husband
on the night of the ambush?

- I didn't need to.
- No?

No. Hastings makes grease look solvent
and Arnott can't keep it in his pants.

Their transgressions are minor in comparison,
irrelevant.

How did you figure out
I was an undercover officer?

I give you tips so you can do a better job
on the next innocent officer you go after?

I did a good enough job on you.

You want me on a string,
wondering when you'll screw up my career.

Don't like it when the shoe's
on the other foot?

Let me explain something to you.

You're facing a charge of conspiracy to murder.
That's a life sentence.

I'm not going to be in here for life.
I'm innocent.

I'm going to clear my name
and that will become apparent at the trial.

- If we get that far.
- We will.

Is this what you want, Kate?

Wouldn't it be better
if you went out and found the culprit

and got the charges against me dropped?

- The evidence points at you.
- Circumstantial.

The CPS buy it, so will the courts.

Yeah. The courts.

Where it'll come out
you're connected to the person

more likely to have set up the ambush.

There's no connection.

You know what, you're a good liar, Kate.

Not good enough to fool me undercover
but good enough to hide that call.

And I'm so glad you did.

Because you've made yourself
my ticket out of here.

Well, whilst you're in here
bouncing off the walls, our investigation rolls on.

Day after day.

Gathering more evidence against you.

For one, we'll find out the real reason
why you were sniffing around that garage.

I told you...

We'll see.

We've both been here before.

So has Major Violent Crime.

What matters is Denton came here.

Following a missing persons lead.

This is the exact place used
by Tommy's killer.

If that isn't a possible connection
between the two of them, I don't know what is.

What?

I searched this place.

It was flat.

Well, it's not any more.

Get the landlord on the phone.

We need consent to get a search team
over here.

Let's see what comes from the garage

but now we've got access to the Witness
Protection files, we've got Tommy.

We've got Akers, who was his WP Officer
and her phone records.

And then we've got Denton.

But nothing in either the files
or the phone history connects either to Denton.

- All right?
- All right.

You all right?

So gaffer says you were probies with Akers.

Yeah, I went through Ryton with her.

Honest copper?

Yeah.

What?

We're playing catch-up.

It feels like everybody else
got first dibs on this one.

First thing we did was look for prior contact
between Akers and Denton.

They never worked together.
They never called each other.

As far as we can tell,
they were complete strangers.

Never met until a few minutes
before the ambush.

- As per Denton's statement.
- Yeah.

There's a hell of a lot of evidence
against Denton.

Oh, yeah, you're right.

There is.

Look, the gaffer's asked me to do a job.

It's not my fault
you were kept out of the loop.

But, really, around the office...

you ought to be calling me "sir".

- Sir.
- Sir.

Good.

Have a nice day.

Wanker.

Twat.

OK, according to Akers' phone records,

a few minutes beforehand she called a number
registered to her husband.

She calls home,
says I might be late tonight, love,

and then arranges transfer via Denton.

Makes sense
but let's talk to the husband anyway.

- Good idea.
- I'll call him.

No, it's fine. I'll do it.

Do you mind if we set the interview up
for tomorrow? My Tesco shuts at eight.

All right.

Hi.

In the morning I'm going to return to take
a statement with my partner Steve Arnott.

You'll answer all our questions
fully and honesty

with the exception of disclosing
Jayne's request for you to contact me.

And the fact that you did attempt
to contact me.

- Right.
- OK.

Kate...

I get it.

The last thing
I want to do is embarrass you.

You picked a good day, Ted.

We've got Bourbon creams.

Thanks very much, sir, but I'm fine.

Why didn't you notify me
you were arresting DI Denton?

I didn't realise I had to, sir.

I thought we agreed
we were on the same team.

We are, sir.
It's just there's the principle of non-reciprocity...

I'm managing one of the biggest cases,
if not the biggest, this force has ever seen.

Every move's being watched like a hawk.

And may I ask,
is there any difficulty with Denton's arrest, sir?

No, of course not.

You did the right thing.

Luckily we've managed to play
this development in our favour.

It's just that you would have appreciated
some forewarning, sir.

That's all it is.

Well, if I could just beg another minute
of your time, please, sir?

Quickly.

I'm going to send you the audio file
of our interview with DI Denton

in which you'll hear her levelling accusations
intended to discredit two AC-12 officers.

DS Steven Arnott is accused of having
a liaison with a witness, sir.

It happens.

OK.

The second officer?

Well, that would be me, sir.

DI Denton obtained my financial records

and is accusing me of having high levels
of undisclosed financial losses, sir.

Her actions in obtaining those records are,
in my opinion, unlawful, sir.

But, however, the information
she has against me is correct.

I'm sorry. How did it happen?

A retired colleague invited me to invest in
a property deal in the Irish Republic.

I mean, how did she access your records?

That's still under investigation, sir.

You're aware the Prosecutor's going for
public interest immunity against DI Denton?

I am, sir.

There's a chance they'll umbrella
AC-12's evidence with Witness Protection.

It's possible this could all end up
being brushed under the carpet.

That's out of my hands, sir.

This must have been difficult for you, Ted.

It shows your integrity.

Notwithstanding, I'm going to have to consider
how it affects your position.

Of course, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Mr Akers, I'm DS Arnott.

DC Fleming you know.

Hi. Hi, Kate.

Hi.

Come in.

- You two seen each other since...
- The funeral. No.

Very sorry for your loss.

Jayne left for work as normal that morning.

She didn't say anything about there being
anything unusual that she had to do that day.

Did your wife discuss the witness
she was dealing with?

Not a word. Jayne didn't do that.

DI Lindsay Denton.

- That a name you ever heard from your wife?
- No.

According to your wife's phone records,
she made a call at exactly 8:43pm that evening.

That your number?

My mobile, yeah.

Do you recall what she said?

She said that something had come up at work
and she was going to be home late.

She said she'd call me later
and let me know how things were going.

That's all?

To the best of my recollection.

Thank you, Mr Akers.

We know this is a difficult time for you.

Your assistance has been valuable.

I'll see you out.

Sorry, Mr Akers.

If someone's in fear of their life, a police officer,
then they do something about it.

Was there anything she said,
an unusual turn of phrase, a name,

anything that might alert someone
to what was going on?

There wasn't, no.

Thanks again, Mr Akers.

A word.

Have you got something to say about
the interview with Akers' husband?

I'm writing up the statement for the boss.

He's made me deputy SIO.

So I'll take a look at it when it's ready.

Congratulations.

You're worried it doesn't fit.

Mm?

Akers makes a random phone call to Denton
and yet it's all Denton.

That's why we're looking for connections.

Our side and your side
and we haven't found one.

Have you seen the preliminaries
on the search at Denton's house?

Not one piece of incriminating evidence.

But I'm guessing something wasn't right
with Akers' husband.

Cup of tea.

Look, I've put in a request
for financial forensics for...

I've put in a request for financial forensics
for Akers' bank account.

- If she was getting paid for information...
- Great minds think alike.

Nice one.

Well, Denton's in custody.

How's the boss going to react?

I don't know, mate.

I'm not sure how I feel about sending
an innocent copper down.

I need my eight hours a night.

Steve, what was that?

Nothing. He's a twat.

Steven.

Sir.

Shut the door.

Remain standing.

I've been trying to figure out the best way
of dealing with this

and frankly I'd rather not have to.

I don't fancy talking to this nurse
about what happened between you,

- so I'll start with you.
- This isn't relevant to our investigation.

Yes, it is, because we have Denton on tape
quoting the regs.

Clutching at straws.
She'll say anything to undermine us.

Let me be the judge of that.

The nurse isn't a witness against Denton.
She's never heard of her.

Did you have inappropriate relations
with a witness?

As I've said, sir, she's not a witness.

Not our witness.
MVC aren't charging her as an accessory.

So what are you saying, son?
She was fair game?

I know the difference
between screwing up an investigation

and just screwing.

There's discreditable conduct
and just plain right and wrong.

- Meaning?
- She was under threat for a little boy's life.

- She was in protective custody.
- If you've a moral problem, it's down to you.

Nothing wrong with my morality!

I'm a single bloke and I've a normal private life.

You need a better reason
for having this conversation.

How the hell are we supposed
to uphold standards

if you're running around town
not upholding them yourself?

That's my reason.
And it's a bloody good one.

I'm disappointed, son.

Go on, get out!

Another bollocking? That's all I need.

No. I'll tell you what you need. Come on.

So, this nurse... she fit, was she?

All right.

Well, did you?

You need to brush up
your interrogation technique.

Don't look now, right.

What did I say about not looking?

There's a couple of birds behind you.

Now, I'm not formulating a plan or anything
but...

There's three of them.

I'm a bloody detective inspector.
I can see there's three of 'em.

There's always one who's got a boyfriend
or a period or summat.

Were you off the day they did
gender awareness training?

Eh, I gave the gender awareness training.

This is bloody weird, "Dot".

- What, me and you working together?
- Yeah.

Well, that's anti-corruption, mate.

Beggars can't be choosers.

- And this is all on me.
- No, honestly.

We'll have no arguments. First things first.

Captain...

Pop over there, yeah. Ask those lovely ladies
what we can get 'em to drink.

No food, mind. I'm not made of money.

Bent bitch, bent bitch,
bent bitch, bent bitch!

Yeah, it's ready.

- Hi.
- All right?

Yeah.

So there's a body.

We're taking it from here.

- Sir?
- Our crime scene.

You're joking?

It's outside of the investigation.

That floor collapsed because something
underneath it collapsed.

It's thanks to Kate
subsidence was even noticed.

Well, top marks for that.

Sir, may I respectfully request
any findings be shared?

Send your request to my office in writing.

Somebody will get back to you
in the next 10 working days.

Yes, please, ladies and gentlemen.

It's OK, I've got it.

Here it comes.

Call me later for initial forensics.

I've got it.

Sir.

We're not making
any announcement about the body.

Are you sure, sir?

Not until we know how it fits in
with the overall investigation.

Sorry, Andrew, I've got another call incoming.

- OK, boss.
- We'll catch up in the morning.

OK. Love to Liz and the kids. Bye.

- Mike Dryden.
- Sorry, sir, it's Jo.

Jo. Hi.

I'm afraid the Evening Herald is going to run
the speeding ticket story.

I need to question you further

in regards to the industrial estate.

What were you really doing there?

I was investigating
the disappearance of Carly Kirk

as I've already stated.

Ever been there before?

Consorted with individuals
connected with the place?

No.

A body's been found buried under the floor

of the old A and B carriage repairs
industrial unit.

Been there about two months.

- And your presence was, what, a coincidence?
- I was investigating...

The men who carried out the ambush
used the nurse to gain access to the hospital.

Same target, same clothing. Motorcycle gear.

They took the nurse to that garage.

Same place where the girl's body was buried.

And you went there too.

Now, if this was your case,
would you write those off as coincidences?

- No.
- No. So one way or another, you're involved.

No.

The evidence is out there. We will find it.

The girl... What age?

About 15.

Carly Kirk?

No ID yet. Only initial forensics.

Why not?

Her face and finger pulps were burnt off,

using a high-temperature flame,
most likely a blowtorch.

Her teeth were removed post-mortem.

Most likely with pliers,
preventing comparison of dental records.

Cause of death?

Strangulation, using some kind of ligature.

Can her DNA be compared to Carly's?

There were control samples obtained from
her personal effects when she disappeared.

They haven't been traced as yet.

They're lost?

It's just an admin glitch.

She was a nobody when she was alive.

And dead she's still one.

Why are you so convinced it's her?

Because of a lead I was following.

The same lead that you think
makes out I had to be in on it.

I was only searching for Carly.

Why?

Of all the long-term mispers, why her?

She was only recently disappeared.

There were leads.

I thought we'd find her.

I thought maybe there'd be
some good news for once in this job.

Ma'am, what's wrong?

Look, it's tough in here.

On anyone.

They told me about what happened
to your food.

Maybe you could make sure that you only
eat stuff out of a sealed wrapper.

They said
that you requested a piano keyboard.

I'm sure that's something we can look at.

If you co-operate with our investigation,
tell us things we don't know,

there's all sorts we can do
to improve your situation.

You know why I'm in here?

Because I picked up a phone.

Because an officer in danger, somebody
I'd never met before, requested my help.

And I did what any decent police officer
would do.

Yeah, you did pick up a phone.

In a call box.

To speak to the nurse who was
looking after the target of the ambush.

And lied through your teeth about it ever since.
That's the reason you're in here.

I shouldn't have lied.

I realised how incriminating it sounded.

That I'd called the nurse.

So you're admitting it?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

So what is your connection with the nurse?

None.

It didn't take a genius
to work out where the witness was.

I made calls, always from phone boxes.

Pretended I was from a recruitment agency

asking for the names of nurses
who worked on the intensive care unit.

Why?

Because he had to know who was in on it,
who was after him.

I wanted to know if he'd said anything
that could prove my innocence.

- Is that the best you can come up with?
- It's the truth.

- Well, it sounds...?
- What? Pathetic?

- Desperate?
- Yeah.

I wasn't even supposed to be on duty that night.

I was covering.

I did that a lot.
For the inspectors with families.

It was my way of trying to get on, I suppose.

Pathetic.

Desperate.

I need you to amend your statement, ma'am.

To go on record with what you've just admitted
regarding the phone call.

I'm happy to.

Just as soon as you do the same.

Does the Deputy Chief Constable
have a statement to make

regarding the allegation
about his speeding offence?

The subject of this briefing
is the ongoing investigation into the ambush

in which three police officers lost their lives.

- Are you still the best man for the job?
- I will give a brief statement.

My wife and I strenuously deny the allegation.

The fact that in the midst of what is clearly
a complex and controversial investigation

the Herald chooses to
trot out this inaccurate slur...

Will you resign?

Is your position untenable?

Have you still got
the Chief Constable's backing?

It makes a change
from a meeting in a subway.

You all right?

Can I get you a drink?

No, I'd better not have any more.

Have mine.

What's wrong?

Rich Akers is hiding something.

On the night of the ambush, he called me.

What did he call you about?

A message from Jayne.

She needed to speak to me.

About moving the witness?

Why'd you hide it?

Rich and I were involved behind Jayne's back.

I didn't want it coming out.

Who else have you told?

No-one.

Keep it that way.

Draw a line around it and walk away from it
like it never happened.

- Steve...
- This'll be your career.

You see a life for yourself outside the job?

No.

Richard Akers, he won't blab about this?

He hasn't so far.

Good.

Down that. I'll get you home.

Lindsay Denton knows.

That's what all that business was
with your phone?

She went through my call history,
using it as leverage.

Your version of events is Richard Akers
called you worried about his wife.

It didn't materially affect the investigation.
End of.

Steve, that's a lie.

Maybe there are people who always
tell the truth and ones who always lie.

The rest of us choose our moments.

This is one of them.

The allegation about me and my wife
won't go away.

If you throw them back a denial, often
there's a delay while they get corroboration.

Screw them. I've got a bigger story for you.

The person charged
in connection with the ambush,

the 36-year-old woman,

she's a police officer.

Detective Inspector Lindsay Denton

from the Missing Persons Unit
at 4th Street Station.

She led the convoy into the ambush.

And conspired in the witness's murder

at the hospital.

Is it correct that DI Lindsay Denton
has been charged with conspiracy to murder?

I'm not going to elaborate on press speculation.

God help me when I find the leak.
I'm going to bury the bastard.

How did they get this?

- Have you understood the safety briefing?
- Yeah.

You must complete two sessions per week

of no less than 15 minutes each

and no more than 30 minutes each.

Answering yes or no only, do you understand?

Which machines can I use?

Yes.

Grab her legs! Go on, get her legs!

Help me!

- Bloody hell, Jen, quick!
- Get away from her!

Have a seat.

Look, if anyone finds out,
we're for the high jump.

We'll sort out those two back there
and we can keep this between ourselves?

- Yeah, sure.
- Cheers. You're a life-saver.

Fancy a cuppa?

Yeah. That'd be really nice, thanks.

- Jen, you do the paperwork and I'll do the brew.
- No problem.

Lindsay... It's OK if I call you Lindsay?

Yeah, sure.

Pop your hands on the table next to
this diagram so I can have a look at them.

- Milk, sugar?
- Yeah, milk, no sugar, please.

You've got a cracked nail.

Could have been worse, I suppose.

Thank God it wasn't.

You've been talking to AC-12!

From now on you keep your gob shut!

Sir...

Thank you, Ted, but there's no need.
Hat off. At ease.

Sir.

I've considered the pros and cons
with no little deliberation.

You're in a vulnerable position.

An anti-corruption officer
is more likely than most

to encounter situations
that place him susceptible to bribery.

Sir.

However, coming to me as you did
is a mark of your character.

This is possibly
the most morally complex investigation

this force has ever carried out.

I for one would feel less confident of success
without your guiding hand on the tiller.

I'd like you to carry on.

I don't know what to say, sir. I...

I haven't discussed this with anyone.

I think the fewer people know
about your situation the better.

I'm very grateful, sir. Thank you, sir.

- Is there anything I can do to help?
- No, no, sir, no.

My wife and I are back on track, sir.

Good man. Glad to hear it.

Charged anyone else
while our backs have been turned?

Very interesting question, sir.

Should I have?

It must be great up there on that pedestal.

All holier than thou.

All the further to fall, mind.

When the truth comes out.

- Les.
- Sir.

- All right, boss?
- All right.

- What are you having?
- No, it's my shout.

A pint of Kronenbourg. Ta.

I imagine I'm keeping you
from your busy social life.

I could do with a night off.

Seeing that nurse again?

Sir, you and I see certain things differently.

That doesn't mean there isn't respect.

Except for my personal views.

Some.

We were married at 18.

She was the only one.

And we waited.
Is that what you don't respect?

I spoke to you, sir, in the wrong manner.

I apologise. I'd be grateful if you could see
your way to putting it behind us.

You would, would you?

I guess it'd be rude not to.

Don't want to be rude.

I disappointed you, sir.

Sometimes I disappoint myself.

Welcome to the club.

Are you in much pain?

Yes.

What have they said about your hands?

The medical officer
doesn't know how bad they'll be.

He's referred me to a specialist.

I'm sorry.

I heard there was a problem
with the CCTV recording.

Conveniently.

DI Denton, I'd like to take a statement
from you today to be included in evidence.

Regarding your amendments
to earlier statements given in evidence.

We had an agreement about that.

Aware the Prosecution's made
a public interest immunity application?

It was brought up at my bail hearing.

Well, it's been accepted.

They've got non-disclosure
of sensitive evidence.

Included in said sensitive evidence
is my call history.

They can't do that.

I was an undercover officer
gathering evidence against you.

Disclosure of my communications history

could jeopardise undercover contacts
in future ops.

That's just not true.

It's a cover-up.

Our legal team did their job.
I'm just here to do mine.

Now, in regards to the phone call...

What, so your phone call from Akers
gets vanished?

Like the CCTV of me
being attacked by two inmates?

Like those same inmates
testifying that I burned my own hands

and that the prison officers tried to stop me?

It suits everyone for me to be silenced.

I'm taking your statement, aren't I?

Look, this attack, it's opened my eyes.

I was set up to get involved
in the transfer of the witness.

The newspaper leak about me, the attack.

And now the non-disclosure of evidence.

It all makes sense.
Even the screws are involved.

- They said as much.
- They said what?

They said not to talk to you.

Well, what are we doing now?

No-one appears to be stopping us.

- No, but...
- Look,

you've been badly shaken by the attack.

Maybe it's best I come
when you're feeling better.

No, wait.

Listen to me.

Don't you see how I've been set up?
Even down to the fact that

AC-12 were prevented
from looking at Witness Protection.

All you could do was focus on me.

Only somebody at executive level
has that kind of power.

And the only person I told about the operation
was Mike Dryden.

You've lied through your teeth
throughout this investigation.

And now you're using an exec officer
as a way of tying us in knots.

- No, that's not what it is.
- Really?

- I know Mike Dryden.
- You know him?

We had an affair.

Five years.

And...?

And...?

He didn't leave his wife, did he?

You gave him an ultimatum
and then it was all over.

You and I both know you don't have the right
to act superior over our private lives.

Why are you only telling us this now?

Because I don't know myself if it's true.
Why would he do that to me?

I've done nothing to him.
If anything I've protected him.

No. You're a woman scorned.

Not only do you get your revenge on him

but you use him as a way of screwing up
our investigation.

Do you believe I'm guilty?

I just gather the evidence. The courts decide.

I get it. I get it.

It's your way of dealing with the fact
you might be putting away an innocent person.

I think you're guilty.

Bent bitch, bent bitch,
bent bitch, bent bitch!

DC Fleming.

Jan Evans. You left a message
regarding the 4th Street duty logs.

Yeah, thanks for getting back to me.

I'm seeking information regarding the rota
for duty inspector

at 4th Street Station
on the night of September 5th.

- You mean...
- Yeah, the night of the ambush.

I have that information on file. Please hold.

Dot's up to something.

One minute.

DI Denton covered the ghost rota as
Inspector Barlow was reassigned that night.

Who was responsible for that change?

Hold one second.

Inspector Barlow received an invitation to attend
a session of the Crime Executive.

It came directly from
Deputy Chief Constable Dryden's office.

Great. Thank you.

What's going on?

Well?

Got the financial forensics back in.

It looks like Jayne Akers
received a substantial payment.

- How substantial?
- Upwards of 50 grand.

- We need to include Kate.
- Akers was her mate.

And Kate's my partner.

Steve.

Under Rule 46,
vulnerable persons must shower alone.

From the dispensers on the wall
you're permitted one measure of soap

and one measure of shampoo.

You must shower
for no longer than six minutes.

Answering only yes or no, do you understand?

What is it?

Lindsay alleged she was set up
by another police officer.

I went through her file. She served with
this officer for a year when she was a DS.

Working in Crime Audit.

He was Chief Superintendent.

I've just taken a call from one of
the administrators at 4th Street Station and...

On the night of the ambush,
this officer caused the rota to be changed.

The change that put Lindsay Denton
on duty that night.

He was a Chief Super. What is he now?

Deputy Chief Constable.

- It's Mike Dryden.
- Oh, Jesus bloody Christ.

"Dot".

I need a breather.

One wrong move
and we could all be directing traffic.

Well? Steve?

All right.

But first I need to talk to you
about Jayne Akers.

- How are you?
- You do not have to say anything.

Tickety-boo.

You try and twist
some case out of my misfortunes.

Three of our colleagues have lost their lives
in the line of duty.

It was no accident, was it?

- ..in the morgue because of you.
- No firearms.

An officer plunged five floors
and is reported to have died.

DI Denton, I am arresting you for...

.. the one good thing in my life.

I think you're guilty.

I think you're guilty.

No.
