Operation Lighthouse.

Re the unsolved murder of
Gail Vella on September 10th, 2019.

Mr Boyle, did you shoot Gail Vella?

A significant number of other
fingerprints

match an individual identified

by the Police National Computer
as Carl Banks.

Carl Banks has an extensive
history of violence.

What is the motive
for Gail Vella's murder?

All right, she's a controversial
journalist,

but there's no evidence to suggest

that she dug up anything
that wasn't there before.

Maybe she was working on something
that would.

Synced & corrected by -robtor-
www.addic7ed.com

- She keep notes or recordings?
- What journalist wouldn't?

That's why I suggested Gail's killer
must have stolen them.

I accepted the disciplinary action,
ma'am.

There's plenty think you're lucky
not to have been removed.

Farida's replacement, PC Ryan...

Pilkington, ma'am.

Have we worked together before?

Our assumption is the removal of
a refrigerator or freezer.

What happened to this appliance?

Steph, what are you doing here?

You promised you'd call me back.
It's HMRC.

Not here, not here,
let's go somewhere private.

It's good you were
able to keep the house.

Fortunately, there was John's
life insurance.

I can't share any details,
but we might be looking into Vella.

Great. So, either I'm accused of
being a traitor or

I become one to avoid being accused.

We really can't be sure about
the loyalty of some of these people.

- It's over.
- Don't go!

Is everything OK?

- I should, uh...
- Yeah.

How do you account for these devices
being found hidden in your home?

- I'm being framed!
- Who's framing you?

Jo. It's Jo Davidson.

Right. Is she prepared to give
a statement?

Brilliant. Yeah. Sooner the better.

Cheers, mate.

Bingo.

- Ma'am.
- Boss.

Alastair Oldroyd,

the CHIS who claimed he got
into a row with Gail Vella's murderer.

I've been pissing in
the wind going round

all the likely pubs for a
witness to Oldroyd's story.

What you got, Chris?

One of our uniforms has got
a Deborah... Devereux,

which I'm bound to be pronouncing wrong,

claims she witnessed an argument
on the night of the 26th,

involving a man matching
Alastair Oldroyd's description.

And she saw who Oldroyd
was arguing with?

That's what she's claiming, ma'am.

Deborah, according to a first
account you gave earlier today,

you were in the Red Lion pub
on Francis Road, Moss Heath

on the night of 26th of October,
is that correct?

Yeah, that's right.

And you witnessed an argument
between how many persons?

Two men.

For the recording,
I'm showing the witness Image 43.

Image 43 is a person known
to our inquiry.

Is this one of the men you saw?

Yeah. Definitely.

Do you know this man's name?

Sorry.

Now, Deborah, I'm going to show you
a photograph of another man.

For the recording, this is Image 29.

Deborah,
please look closely at Image 29.

Take your time.

Did you see this man in the Red Lion

on the night of the 26th of October?

Sorry.

Just to confirm, this is not the man
you witnessed in an argument

with the person
shown in the previous image?

He looked, uh...

different.

Different different?

Yeah. Oh, sorry, am I not allowed to say
that?

I didn't mean to offend no-one.

No, that's OK, Deborah.

Set up a video ID parade,
then pull the new evidence together.

We'll bring Terry Boyle
back in tomorrow.

The Police and Criminal
Evidence Act forbids me

from showing you a
photo of this suspect.

We would require you...

Mind your head as you get out.

Just heading over here.

Terry Boyle, in for interview. Need
to sign him in and allocate a room.

Wait there.

You know I'm still your best mate,
Terry.

Everything's going to be fine
as long as you keep your mouth shut.

Terry Boyle, you remain under caution.

You do not have to say anything,

but it may harm your
defence if you do not mention

when questioned something you
later rely on in court.

I'm showing Image 43.

This is a picture of Alastair Oldroyd.

Do you know this man?

No.

We have a witness in this inquiry
we're calling Witness A.

Witness A described seeing
Alastair Oldroyd in the company

of a young white male with dark hair.

Earlier today, Witness A completed
a video identification parade.

In the presence of your solicitor,

Witness A was shown videos of
nine men of similar appearance.

Your solicitor will confirm that
Witness A identified you

as the person she states was in
the company of Alastair Oldroyd

at the Red Lion public house,

Francis Road, Moss Heath
on the night of the 26th of October.

So, Terry, what DCI Davidson is
saying is somebody saw you

in a pub on that particular night.

And in that particular pub on that
particular night,

the witness claims you were with
this man Alastair Oldroyd.

Were you with him?

You're not answering.

That's your right.

My client is fully cooperative with
your investigation, DCI Davidson.

As you know,

sometimes Mr Boyle finds it
difficult to formulate an answer,

particularly in situations of stress.

We have information
on the conversation you're alleged

to have had with Alastair Oldroyd
on the night of the 26th of October.

Did you confess to
Alastair Oldroyd that you'd been

involved in the murder of Gail Vella?

Is what DCI Davidson said true, Terry?

Did you talk to
Alastair Oldroyd about Gail Vella?

Not me.

Sorry, Terry, I don't understand.

What do you mean, "Not me"?

Take your time.

It sounds like this could be
important information.

DI Fleming's question was,
when you say, "Not me,"

we don't understand what you mean.

Can you help us with that, please?

The other man.

He did it.

There was another man with you
and Alastair Oldroyd?

According to our witness, there was
just the two of you.

No.

Terry, are you trying to say
there was another man

who talked about Gail Vella?

Stay calm.

Take your time.

Terry, this other man, did he talk
about how Gail Vella was killed?

Who was this other man, Terry?

I'm concerned about your client's
welfare.

Terry, did this man threaten you?

Because if he did, we can protect you.

You just need to tell us
who this other man is.

We have to stop.

- We're getting somewhere, ma'am...
- Kate.

Let's leave it there for today.

We'll continue another time.

Terry, you should get some rest.

Interview terminated at 3.38pm.

Terry was claiming there was
someone else involved.

That fits with him
being substituted for Carl Banks.

We've got a witness saying it's
Terry with Oldroyd,

no mention of Banks at all.

He was just about to say
who's behind the swap.

Kate, you've got
used to nicking coppers.

They know the system.

You can get tough as you
like on them, pretty much.

If we go to court, I guarantee you
the defence will claim we oppressed

and intimidated a vulnerable suspect
into incriminating himself.

Show a jury the video of us
carrying on at Terry Boyle

and that could be the whole trial
collapsing right there.

I know what I'm doing.

And I got you in the room
because I thought you did too.

Sorry, boss.

When you say, "Not me,"

we don't understand what you mean.

Can you help us with that, please?

The other man.

He did it.

The other man.

He did it.

There was another man with you
and Alastair Oldroyd?

Careful, Terry, mind your head.

You all right, Terry? Won't be
a long drive, mate.

You got the new route for tonight, yeah?

No-one said a thing to me.

Sorry about that, Lisa.

It's all for Terry's security.

We vary the route. I'll find it.

Ma'am.

Hi, Chris, sorry to bother you.

I'm just double-checking

Terry Boyle's being returned to
his approved premises tonight.

Stand by.

- Ma'am?
- Yeah.

Yeah, just checked, that's correct.

Approved premises tonight,
resume interview tomorrow.

- You still in the station?
- Er, no.

I've had to nip out for something.

I'll speak to you in a bit. Thanks,
Chris.

Cheers, ma'am.

Terry's nodded off, bless him.

- OK to open my window?
- No probs.

Come on.

Sorry, Lisa, what's our ETA?

Shit.

Help!

Shit.

Status Zero, Mike India Three Seven,

Edge Park Reservoir, officers in water.

Help's coming. It's DI Fleming!
I've called for backup.

- Help me! Help!
- It's all right, I've got you.

You're OK.

You all right, Terry?

The driver's still under.

It's too dangerous!
Just wait for backup!

Just wait for backup!

Status Zero, Mike India Three
Seven at Edge Park Reservoir,

one officer missing, one in the water,

requesting urgent backup and divers.

Received, Three Seven,
units en route.

Oh, my God.

Kate, are you all right?

Yes, I'm in one piece, boss.

Oh, no.

Lisa.

Have you got everything you need, Chris?

I've got your first account, ma'am,
that should be fine.

All right, if I go and look at the car?

Thank God you were passing.

Yeah. Pure coincidence.

I'll be at the car, boss,
if you need me.

Yeah.

DI Arnott, you told me we had a new
source,

but you did not tell me who.

I wanted you to hear it from Kate, sir.

- Kate.
- Sir.

Go on.

Tonight, I believe there was an
attempt on Terry Boyle's life, sir.

It could only have happened with
leaks from and/or collusion

with members of DCI Davidson's team.

My first duty as a police officer is
preservation of life, sir.

That's why I'm here.

In that case, DI Fleming,

this department is grateful
for your cooperation.

Sir.

Steve, I want you to put
Terry Boyle's Approved Accommodation

under surveillance, it's the least
we can do to protect the lad.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

The officer that saved Terry from
drowning,

there's something about him.
I'm sure I've met him before.

Who's the officer?

Ryan Pilkington.

Christ.

What?

Oh, my God.

I interviewed him
when he was a juvenile offender.

Little bastard
damn near cut off my fingers.

After the Gates' case was closed,

a neighbourhood copper took
Ryan under his wing.

Helped get him fostered
and back into education.

There's not so much as a caution
since then.

As a juvenile with no convictions,

his arrest record would've
fallen off the system.

The vetting officer could've missed
this. Or someone's removed it.

- How'd he end up on Davidson's team?
- Recent recruit.

Davidson brings him into the fold,
and he just happens to be escorting

Terry the night Terry nearly drowns.

I'm going to have to get off.

Shame.

I was feeling a takeaway coming on.

Don't tempt me.

- Night, mate.
- Night.

Superintendent Hastings.

It's Steph.

Look, Steph, I told you, you have to
be careful

about calling me at work.

I tried your mobile.

Yes, I know. I was in a meeting

and I must have forgotten to switch
it back on.

It's about Steve.

He's got me worried.

Steve Arnott? Why?
What's Steve been up to?

He called in.

What do you mean, he called in?

He said he was just dropping
by for a cuppa, like, you know,

when he's on this case up here.

But, look, we really shouldn't be
discussing this on my work phone.

I'll, er...

I'll give you a call on the mobile
when I'm outside the building. OK?

OK.

Cheers, Tom.

Thanks, Amanda.

Sir, you remember Gail's producer
reported there was material

she'd recorded that was never broadcast?

He's sent it all through.

Chief Constable Osborne,

Central Police recently announced
increased funding for more

front line officers.
500 more officers on the beat.

Well, we're committed
to making our communities safe.

I've examined the figures for police
recruitment and 190 of those

500 officers are already serving,

so it's actually 310 more.

I don't know where you're getting
your figures from...

The figures come from your
own office, Chief Constable.

Furthermore, over the past ten
years, police numbers have been

cut by 600 officers. The truth is
you're still 100 officers short.

Rohan Sindwhani, you were elected
Police and Crime Commissioner

on a reforming platform,
promising to root out corruption.

Why, then, following the conviction

of
Chief Superintendent Patrick Fairbank,

haven't you established an inquiry into
the suppression

of police investigations

into child sexual exploitation?

Chief Constable Osborne has assured me

there's insufficient evidence
to support a public inquiry.

It doesn't concern you that officers

who may have colluded in child sexual
exploitation

have been allowed to retire
without facing justice?

Some may even still be serving.

The Dale Roach scandal
was before my term of office.

It was during your term,

Mr Sindwhani,

that instead of pursuing the guilty
police officers,

your constabulary investigated
celebrities and VIPs,

all without charge.

Officers arguably colluded with the
BBC in enabling a news helicopter

to film the search of an elderly pop
star's home,

again, without charge.

I'm afraid we've got to leave it there.

You don't feel it's your place
as the PCC to comment on that?

Do you feel the public are
losing trust in your constabulary?

If we're looking for a motive
for Gail's murder,

this definitely doesn't
seem like enough.

Chloe's right, sir.

If they could have Gail censored,

why would anyone need worry about her?

Whatever got Gail Vella murdered,
we haven't found it.

Something going on, sir?

Yeah, just AC-9,
routine drugs testing, yeah.

I've got to get over to check on the
surveillance at Terry Boyle's

approved premises.

Yeah.

Well, you know,
you're not on their list, Steve,

I told them you aren't available today.

Cheers, Gaffer.

- On you go, son.
- Sir.

We understand PS Jatri is on remand

and DCI Davidson was arrested,

then subsequently released
without charge.

I've had to call in favours from half a
dozen editors

to keep this out of the press.

You must have been in a different
conversation

because the one I
remember made clear AC-12

would be conducting a
routine performance review

- of Operation Lighthouse.
- Yes.

Well, I cannot consider
another course of action

in the face of information
leakage by PS Jatri

and the possible collusion of other
police officers.

The proper course of action

would have
been determined through consultation.

So we'd have time to consider all
the ramifications.

We all share the same goal here,
Ted, justice for Gail Vella.

Lovely person.

Terrible loss.

My actions,
and the actions of my officers,

are determined by one
thing and one thing only

and that is the letter of the law,
the letter.

I don't think that's the only thing
your actions are determined by.

Operation Pear Tree concluded
there is no institutional corruption

in this force.

AC-12's inquiry remains open
regarding the existence

of a putative figure, once codenamed H,

now the fourth man, still at large,

orchestrating a clandestine network

of organised criminals
and corrupt police officers.

We want to work with you,
Superintendent, not against you!

You're making this quite
difficult for me.

You were issued a
final written warning, Ted.

Don't waste your last
roll of the dice chasing a phantom.

Your enquiry into H should close.

This isn't about old battles.

The name's Hastings, ma'am.

I'm the epitome of an old battle. Ma'am.

- You all right, Steph?
- Steve.

Would you mind
if I come in for a minute?

Yeah, sure, come in.

- Can I get you a cuppa, or...?
- No. I'm fine.

Sorry, I wasn't expecting you.
You're back quick.

The thing is, I just dropped the
girls at school

and then I'm straight back out.

Something wrong, Steph?

Sorry, no, just a bit flustered.

My Gaffer's ordered drugs tests.

Oh, my God, I never thought.

I didn't realise you two were in touch.

No, we're not, not really.

I just had his number from when
he sent his condolences about John.

So you told him I'd been up here?

Just that you was passing,
on a job, like.

- I never meant for...
- He knows.

Fortunately, he made sure they
missed me out. But it's a warning.

A nudge for me to sort myself out.

Well, then he's done the right
thing by you, hasn't he?

John, he did some jobs
in the early days,

and had to mess with drugs.

They can take over your life, Steve.

You spend every minute of the day lying
to every poor sap

that cares about you.

I shouldn't have barged in like this.

You meant well.

I should go.

I would've talked to you first,
only I never thought you'd be back.

I said I'd be back.

I know.

But you was just being nice.

John's been gone 18 months.

Life goes on.

For everyone else, anyway.

I'm sorry, Steph.

I didn't mean to upset you.

Chloe.

I need you to look into these
financial records, please.

The UCO that got killed?

What, do you reckon he was on the take?

I'll fire over the case number and
access authority

when I'm in my computer.

I'll get right on it, boss.

It shouldn't take long,
just a few questions

as you were the only surviving
police witness.

Very happy to help, ma'am.

Now, you and Lisa Patel

were travelling
with Terry Boyle along Reservoir Road.

You know that wasn't the route assigned?

So I've been told since, ma'am.

Any idea why that
route was taken that night?

Lisa did the driving.
Sorry, ma'am, I didn't question it.

We're still looking into what caused
the patrol car

to veer off the road.

In your statement, you mentioned
the possibility of a tyre blowout.

After they pulled the patrol car
out of the water, I saw that all

the tyres were intact,
so I must've been mistaken, ma'am.

The other possibility you mentioned
was a gunshot.

There was no bullet damage to the
patrol car, so maybe I was mistaken.

Unless Lisa saw a muzzle flash
and took evasive action.

A search of the vicinity found no
evidence of a gunman,

no ejected cartridge.

Sorry, ma'am, I've racked my brains.

Well, something made that car
go into the water.

Now, another significant finding
with the patrol car

was the offside rear window
was wide open.

Now, this would have
permitted your escape underwater.

As you know, for suspect transit,

the rear window controls are disabled.

Lisa opened it from the front seat.

I needed some fresh air.

Wow.

That was some good luck for you,
wasn't it?

Yes, ma'am.

I thank my lucky stars.

A postmortem's been carried out
on PC Lisa Patel,

they detected broken fingernails and
bruising on the back of her neck.

Are you able to
account for those findings?

As soon as we hit the water,
I swam out trying to save Terry.

I didn't witness what happened
to Lisa, ma'am.

Cause of death was drowning.

But Lisa was a strong swimmer,
the water wasn't deep.

Those injuries suggest that she was
hurt in the crash

or in trying to escape the patrol car,
ma'am.

All done.

Ma'am.

- DI Arnott.
- Sir.

Thank you so much, appreciate that.
Thank you.

We finally got a breakthrough, sir.

According to the council records,
the freezer is the exact same make

and model that was
installed at Terry Boyle's flat.

The appliance appeared overnight
on the 27th, which fits with

the exact window for Terry Boyle to
be substituted for Carl Banks.

They only had a few hours, which explains
why it's been dumped it in a rush.

- Security cameras pick anything up?
- The footage is missing.

And none of the staff are saying a word.

I can't even get any of them
to own up to working that night.

This freezer you've found,
what about Davidson's mob?

What, they just decided not to search?

According to the files, they didn't
consider it important evidence.

DCI Davidson assumed Terry Boyle had
sold the appliance to buy drugs.

In our view, he's more likely to be
a victim of cuckooing, whereby

his home's invaded by criminals to
carry out illicit activities.

Intimidation of witnesses in that
scrap yard,

that's a clear
indication of Organised Crime.

And from day one, DCI Davidson has
done her best to steer her inquiry

away from any OCG
involvement in Gail Vella's murder.

So far, sir, that's the missing link.

Now we know about Ryan Pilkington,

is there a connection
between Jo Davidson and an OCG?

PS Farida Jatri's in Brentiss
for having leaked information.

If anyone knows about Davidson,
it's her.

Right. OK.

Do some digging,
see what you can come up with.

Thank you. Good work, you two.

- Gaffer.
- Sir.

Stand away from the door!

You are required to attend
an AC-12 interview.

Please stand upright, facing away

and place your hands behind your back.

- Do I really need to be handcuffed?
- Are you resisting?

- What's up?
- PS Jatri's in the prison hospital

with a broken wrist.

And she's refusing to give
a post-charge interview.

Let's go.

Wait here.

How can I help you, DI Arnott?

Ma'am,
I'd like to ask you about the suggestion

Gail Vella's murder was
accompanied by a burglary

at her home.
No record appears in the files.

My team is cooperating fully,
so feel free to ask around.

The delayed access to your files
that you orchestrated with the DCC...

that would've given you
time to remove any files.

Why would I remove files?

DCI Davidson, did you remove files?

If you have any evidence to back
up that allegation,

put your questions in writing
to my Police Federation Rep

and we'll get back to you
within ten working days.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I've got a case review.

AC-12's inquiry's detected evidence
we'd like to put to Terry Boyle.

Disclose it to me and I'll be happy

to include it in his next interview.

It's confidential.

We'd prefer to interview
Terry Boyle ourselves.

You'll need
a Production Order in writing.

Got one?

Sorry.

As you know, ma'am,

PS Farida Jatri made
a number of allegations against you.

I wonder if you can
explain why she might

have stopped cooperating
with our inquiry.

Sorry.

No idea how she came to be
assaulted in Brentiss Prison?

Um...

No.

How is she? Is she badly hurt?

Ma'am, only OCG have the power to
reach inside prisons

and silence witnesses.

Or did the order come from someone else

who'd benefit from
Farida not testifying?

You should investigate.

Believe me, I will.

Get a statement from every
officer on those missing files.

Sir.

No-one admitted
anything about missing files.

No, I didn't think they would.
But they know we're on to them.

The burner phones
recovered from Farida's house,

any joy yet tracing contacts?

Only one contact,

the burner she called
on the night of the attempted arrest.

That number went out of service
a few hours later

and didn't call any other phones.

I'm thinking we should get a warrant

to expand the forensic
search of Farida's house.

But the place was full of her prints
and DNA.

I mean expand the search to find
someone else's prints or DNA,

in case Farida had contact with
a criminal conspirator.

And it would just be a wild coincidence
if Jo Davidson's DNA shows up.

Thought never crossed my mind.

- Chris, you got a minute?
- Sure.

We've been going round the houses

trying
to ID who confessed to Alastair Oldroyd.

Till we got a witness
ID'ing Terry Boyle.

You've been back to the pub, right?
Any corroborating witnesses?

No.

- CCTV?
- No.

You ran a background
check on the witness?

No.

Run one.

Ma'am.

Sir, the financial
records that you requested.

Ta.

Steve.

Sorry it's so late.

And sorry about the other day.

You're all right.

Come on in. There's a bottle of wine
open if you fancy?

Cheers. I'm driving.

John always kept a bottle of scotch
if that's more your thing.

Better not.

Talking of John. You know that life
insurance you mentioned, it's...

it's worrying how fast that
can get used up.

Did you have financial advice?

If you ain't having a glass, I will.

Mate of mine runs a hairdresser's.

I bought into a share of the
business and I work there part-time.

So, I get a percentage of the
profits and a wage to keep me

and the girls ticking over.

Smart move.

Sounds like a good mate.

You've come all this way.
Are you sure I can't tempt you?

Maybe a small one.

If I have all that,
I'm not going to be fit to drive.

Sorry.
When the girls have gone to bed...

It's just nice having some
grown-up company.

You remind me of him.

Both short arses.

Good men.

Caring men.

I should probably go.

You've got a girlfriend?

No.

No-one at all?

No-one at all.

You can bring the drink with you.

Ah, thanks, Jo.

Nice to get out the station.

Easier to talk here.

About Terry.

Yeah. Well, he's being well looked
after, that's not the issue.

He's...

Well, he's frightened.

AC-12 have put in a request
to interview him.

Why do they want to interview Terry?

They keep banging
on about organised crime.

They must get a pound every time
someone says OCG.

But we believe that's who the leak
went to, don't we?

The leak from Farida, I mean.

All we actually know is Farida was
responsible for A leak.

Look boss I, uh...

I don't want to speak out of turn,
but...

Fire away.

Well, she claims that
you two were close.

I imagine everyone's
got off on that little scenario.

No life of their own so they pick
holes in someone else's,

especially if you're a single woman.

Yeah. Tell me about it.

All it takes is a short haircut.

Whatever you've heard, Kate, it's wrong.

Farida is a liar.

That's not me.

OK.

I'm just going to pop to the loo.

This is nice.

Yeah.

I'm leading you on.

No.

There's a worse phrase for it.

It's just...

I miss him too much.

If it's...

Sorry.

It's fine, Steph.

I get it.

No sex is fine.

Three, three and half years ago,
I got badly injured at work.

I was in a wheelchair,
then crutches, a year of physio.

I look like I made a full recovery.

But you haven't?

That's why you need the painkillers?

It's my back.

There's still some nerve damage.

It affects me in...

in bed.

You got to see a doctor.

Then they'd know my back's
still not right.

My job's pretty much the only
thing I've got left.

Morning.

Oh, shit, I've got to get to work.

I'm just getting the girls out the door.

- You OK to give it a minute?
- Yeah. Course.

Have a good day.

You too.

Hey, guys can I just
grab your attention for a sec?

I'm sure you've all heard the sad
news that tragically

PC Lisa Patel lost her life
in the line of duty.

Our thoughts are with Lisa's family.

Things could've been far, far
worse if it hadn't been for an officer

still only serving his probation.

I'm going to be putting forward that
officer for a commendation.

PC Ryan Pilkington.

Let's get a photo, mate. Ryan.

- Nice one.
- Yeah. Congratulations.

- Thanks.
- Thanks, everyone. Back to work.

Well, that was toe-curling.

Could have waited until
we'd paid our respects to Lisa

before grabbing a bloody photo op.

What a twat.

I hope he's going to give credit
where it's due.

How do you mean?

You brought Ryan onto the team, boss.

Not me. That was Buckells' idea.

Family friend or something,

probably got a nudge
down at the Masonic Lodge.

four o'clock is fine.
Yeah, tee off, yeah.

OK, I'll do an early swerve.
All right, mate. I'll see you later.

- Boss.
- Chris, sorry to bother you.

I just happened to be driving past
Farida Jatri's place

and there's a new forensic
search going on.

News to me, boss. Let me check.

Nothing to do with us, ma'am.
Got to be AC-12.

Is there anything
you want me to do or...?

No, no.

- Thanks, Chris.
- Ma'am.

Couple of things from forensics, sir.

Still nothing from the
harvest at Farida Jatri's address.

- OK.
- But we've got the full forensic report

on Terry Boyle's freezer.

The most significant finding is a blood
deposit

detected in the freezer compartment.

DNA analysis of the blood deposit
gives a 99.9% probability

of a match to a person previously
known to AC-12 -

Jackie Laverty.

What?

Jackie Laverty,
Tony Gates' bit on the side?

Correct, sir.

As you'll recall, Tony Gates claimed
she was murdered by OCG in 2012,

but her dismembered remains weren't
discovered until 2019,

alongside the remains
of DS John Corbett.

Yes.

So, what, you reckon the OCG kept
Jackie Laverty's body parts

hidden in Terry Boyle's
freezer for what, seven years?

It fits with Terry being
the victim of cuckooing, sir.

Not only did they store drugs in his
flat, they hid a murder victim.

Well, if this is true,
I mean, this is it.

- This is the whole damn thing!
- Yes, sir.

The organised criminals involved
in Jackie Laverty's murder

were somehow involved in the murder
of Gail Vella.

And this little fella,
Terry Boyle, I mean,

he must have a tale to tell, or three.

Hence the reason Davidson
shut down his interview

and possibly colluded
in the attempt on Terry's life.

All to stop him testifying.

We really need to interview him, sir.

Aye,
and woe betide anybody gets in our way.

- Sir.
- Sir.

Superintendent Hastings. Yeah,
put me through to The Hill.

Superintendent Ian Buckells.

- They're back?
- Classic tactic.

Do the tests in two stages.

Gives the druggies enough time to
get clean.

DI Arnott?

Sir, you've been listed
for routine drugs testing.

Please, follow me.

Yeah, Hastings.

Detective Superintendent Buckells.

Yes, put him through.

- Kate.
- Boss.

- Permission to speak freely, ma'am?
- Go ahead.

Well, I was concerned
by Deborah Devereux's ID of Terry,

so I asked Chris Lomax
to look into her history.

In 2012, she was charged with
assault ABH against a neighbour.

Proceedings were dropped due to
lack of evidence.

Seems like it was a DI from
Kingsgate Station that was instrumental

in proceedings being dropped.

She'd owe him a favour.

That DI was Ian Buckells.

Look, nobody's been hiding anything.

I'll speak to the DCC if I have to.

Great work, Kate.

I knew you'd come through for me.

What do you mean, boss?

I needed someone on my team
I could trust completely.

Someone with no chance of being bent.

Who better than
an ex-anticorruption officer?

The cockup over the
Surveillance Authority,

that was Buckells.

Otherwise, we'd have arrested Banks,
instead he's dead.

And the CHIS. Oldroyd. Dead too.

Guess who pulled strings
to disclose his identity.

No. Look... Look, can I speak?

That was Buckells?

Shit. What now, Jo?

You're ex-AC-12.

You tell me.

This is bollocks. Total bastard
bollocks.

- Steve.
- Sir. Kate.

This way, please, sir.

Sir, we're sending over the paperwork.

DSU Buckells was arrested

on suspicion of Perverting
the Course of Justice.

We even found the missing Vella files

in the boot of his service vehicle.

Great work, Kate, great work.

And do you have anything to add,
DCI Davidson?

No, sir.

This is AC-12's area of expertise.

I'm just glad the guilty
party's been found.

Sir. Kate.

Take a seat please, sir.

What can I say, Kate?

Glad I could help, sir.
