What is it? Hospital waste?

Don't you ever give up?

Pauline.

What is it, babe?

What, is it Henri? Has something happened?

Paul.

I can't go on any more. I just want to get away.

We can't. We're almost to court now.

- I just don't think I can face it. - We got the evidence.

Just hold on for Henri. Come on. You can do it.

Did the Attorney General come back

about the Home Secretary's alleged corruption yet?

Do you think you should keep pressing that, Judge?

It's going to make people very angry.

There's no going back now. Call his secretary again.

Did my secretary organise coffee?

I think we need something a little stronger if we're to get through this.

If you're earnest about impeaching Deed before Parliament rises,

we have to get moving.

Is the Lord Chancellor really going ahead with this, Ian?

- There's little choice now. - Deed could always resign.

He won't though, Joe.

Hardly. He's been hounding me for a judicial enquiry

into Haughton's relation with Listfield. That would ruin Haughton's career.

I hope we're not pursuing Deed simply because he's gunning for Haughton.

Of course not, Joe.

Deed admitted sleeping with this claimant.

He's just trying to slip off the hook by going after the Home Secretary.

Some of the Cabinet are asking why he can't be stopped.

Well, he can't, unless you want to strip all judges of all their powers.

At present, you have the support of the judges.

But you won't if you interfere with their integrity.

No.

I mean, if Deed does have evidence of Haughton's behaving corruptly

then you try to impeach him, it will look like a cover-up.

You don't think Deed has information that we don't?

If that's the case, I'd better go and see him and find out what he has got.

Yeah, but is there evidence that Haughton accepted a bribe?

Only Rufus Barron could tell us that and he won't talk to me.

Oh, it's so dangerous to pursue this.

The accusation against Haughton has got to be investigated.

- What are we... - You're on shaky ground.

The gossip around the Temple is

that they're going to impeach you for sleeping with the claimant.

That's just a smokescreen.

Judges have done far worse things than sleep with a claimant.

Yes, maybe, but the end result is the same.

You lose your job or worse.

Jo, I don't care.

John, they threatened to kill me, and they threatened Michael.

Which is exactly why they have to be stopped.

Are you still hearing the claim against Cardinal?

- You heard something different? - My clerk said there might be a delay.

They're trying to get the case away from you.

They won't. Are you ready?

John, a lot of people are counting on this action.

I do not want this to become a political football.

With what's at stake, that's exactly what's going to happen.

Jo, listen. I can handle this.

- Sir Michael Niven, judge. - Thanks, Coop.

- This is not altogether unexpected. - We all have your interests at heart.

Unpleasant as it is,

I am required to remove the Cardinal case from you.

Will you arm wrestle me for it?

Keeping a case you've started, it's only a convention.

Mrs Mills is before you, along with your daughter.

Isn't that cause enough to give it up?

- Where's this coming from? - You shouldn't be hearing cases.

Oh, no. Who sent you, Michael?

Ian Rochester?

Or the Home Secretary?

You see, all this just convinces me not to give ground.

Regrettably, John, you behaved improperly with a claimant.

I urge you.

No. I beg you as a friend.

Step back.

Not while the dead hand of the Home Secretary

lies across the judiciary.

I won't.

Then there's little point in sitting through a disagreeable lunch.

It won't end here. Michael Niven was supposed to succeed.

He's a political apparatchik.

What we're losing here is separation of powers.

Possibly the fuss you're making about Haughton isn't helping.

What's that go to do with the Cardinal case?

I think perhaps Tim Listfield is in some way connected to Cardinal.

Well, Deed will be totally biased.

I'm not sure if it's wise for me to be further involved.

But he has to be stopped.

George, raise the question of his removal.

That's a valid reason for him not sitting.

- Will it happen? - And fast. The man's out of control.

Let's stop him.

With the utmost respect, my lord, should you be hearing this case?

- Your argument is? - Because of your impeachment.

- Is that still happening? - I understand it is.

Then you understand more than I do.

In the circumstances, mightn't it be better

to allow the case to go before another judge?

Even if I were of a mind to do so, you're too late. Mrs Mills.

In the report we submitted,

following the further examination of the plant by Professor Moriarty,

there were dioxins found in far higher concentrations

than those currently permitted.

It would be unfair to the defendants were we to proceed.

If you don't, I'll find for the claimants.

Yes, of course. You would.

Yes, of course. It's an appropriate response.

I would like an adjournment of 28 days to prepare the defence in the light

- of your hearing this. - No, Mrs Channing. Are you ready?

Then I would like a short adjournment to consult Sir Peter Tufton, my client.

Oh, very well. Let my clerk know when you're ready.

All rise.

This is how it'll be.

Can't we just get the case in front of another judge?

Not unless you have a plan, Peter. I don't.

Am I going to have to stop Deed?

Tim, the more he pushes for his judicial enquiry,

the tighter his noose becomes.

Good. What about Cardinal?

Oh, Deed will be off the bench long before that reaches judgment.

Ten years ago, Mrs Peacock inherited Rosebank Cottage from her grandfather,

a pretty little country idyll where she tried to raise a family.

That's when their troubles began,

after the cottage became overshadowed by a waste-incinerator plant.

Which the council had endless public consultations about.

Local people felt their voice wasn't heard.

Presumably their rubbish was being dealt with?

Well, Cardinal are taking rubbish from afar away as Essex and Southampton,

South London and the French coast.

As other communities have found to their cost,

the incinerator has resulted in life-threatening dioxins

being released into the atmosphere...

My lord, I cannot suffer these injustices to my client.

I'm sure you know how these cases work.

- First the claimant, then the defendant. - Then you decide in her favour.

Only if she can prove a causal link between the incinerator

and the health of the Peacocks. Mrs Mills.

We will show such a link.

In 1998, soon after the incinerator was up and running,

Mrs Peacock started to get flu-like symptoms.

It was winter, so she assumed it was flu.

But they persisted and then her husband developed the same symptoms.

Finally, his doctor suggested that he might be suffering

from chemical poisoning from handling treated wood. He's a carpenter.

Mrs Peacock being contaminated by contact with her husband's clothes.

This persisted until in 2001,

Mrs Peacock gave birth to their first child,

a boy, who lived only hours. His heart and lungs were fused.

Around the same time, another mother in the area

gave birth to a baby with teratogenic deformities.

Several other patients at the same medical practice

as the one that Mrs Peacock attends

were also misdiagnosed with these mysterious flu-like symptoms.

Are you implying doctors colluded with Cardinal to disguise these facts?

I'm saying they didn't know what they were talking about

when they blamed factors other than chlorinated hydrocarbons,

that is to say, dioxins produced by the incinerator.

Sir Alan Peasmarsh's secretary rang.

She asked if you could meet with Sir Alan today.

- The earliest I said you could is 6:00. - Fine.

Thanks, Jo.

- John. - Hello, Neil.

You could talk to me, John.

What would you say? That the allegation's not true?

- It's not. - Oh. Pleased to hear it.

You have the Director of Public Prosecutions at 6:20, Sir Alan.

- So I do. Warn me at 6:15, will you? - Yes, certainly.

John.

Is what's going on between you and Neil Haughton personal?

The allegations against him emerged in open court

as part of Rufus Barron's defence.

A judicial enquiry would ruin his career.

- Impeachment would ruin mine. - Well, the two aren't connected.

That's very reassuring, Alan,

as Haughton is head of the criminal justice system.

Do you have any evidence that Haughton behaved improperly?

Tim Listfield's company was awarded a defence contract

that went 700 million pounds over budget on Haughton's watch.

- That alone warrants an enquiry. - Well, contracts are often over budget.

So has it not occurred to anybody

that double and triple billing might be endemic?

- It's not a precise science. - It's taxpayers' money!

But you need the evidence, John.

So I will go and talk to Rufus Barron again.

I think you'll be ill-advised to do that.

There are those in the Cabinet who feel that this is a personal vendetta.

Then we have an impasse.

I'll get the police to interview Barron. That's the best I can do.

Right, her feed's in the fridge, Mum. Can you try and get her to eat it all?

- New nappies are in the cupboard. - Pauline, I have done this before.

I know. It's just nerves.

Mrs Peacock, is Rosebank Cottage a healthy place to live?

Erm, it was when I was a girl.

Gran and Grandad grew all their own fruit and veg

- and got water from their well. - Do you still use the well?

No.

After I got pregnant, the council tested the water and condemned it.

Was this before or after the incinerator plant was running?

About three years after it started.

I'd been having a lot of difficulty getting pregnant.

And then I had a spontaneous abortion.

Was anyone else prone to spontaneous abortions in your family?

- No one's ever had any sort of abortion. - Did you find an explanation?

My doctor just said it happens to some women.

Can you tell us about the birth of your first child?

Josh was born at 24 weeks.

He only lived long enough to be baptised.

His heart and lungs were joined together.

- Was any explanation given? - No.

The hospital said I should just try and have another baby.

- And did you? - Yes. Henri, she's 18 months.

Is Henri normal?

She has...

She has spina bifida.

She's only got one eye and no nose.

Mrs Peacock, if this is too upsetting for you, we can take a break.

No. It's all right.

It's just...

People never want to look at our baby. You see them looking away.

I just want them to say something nice.

She's ever so cheerful. She is.

- Do you get any help with Henri? - My mum helps.

But, at times, I think she wishes she hadn't lived.

Henri needs constant attention.

The council said I don't qualify for help.

At times, I get so tired I think I can't go on.

But then you see her trying to do things like other children.

Did anyone ever suggest that Henri's problems

were caused by the waste incinerator plant?

That's the last thing anyone wanted.

They blamed Paul working with chemically treated wood and chipboard.

Did you discover the real source?

My lord, does my learned friend know the truth?

Isn't that what this hearing is for?

Mrs Mills, it would be better if you didn't draw conclusions.

Did you try to get to the truth?

After what happened to Henri, we started searching the Internet.

A pile of stuff came up about dioxins being

carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic.

They're in pesticides and things, but they also come from incinerators

where they burn chlorinated rubbish like paper and packaging and hospital stuff.

And what did you do next?

We went to the council and to the incinerator.

They just gave us the brush off.

Then my GP got keen on the dioxins angle and started investigating.

But then suddenly she changed tack and said my problem was hereditary.

I wouldn't accept that.

My new doctor went through my history and couldn't find any hereditary cause.

What happened to your first GP? Um, Dr Matthews, I believe.

She got a grant to do epidemiology.

That's studying the cause of disease in the community at Sussex University.

Thank you. Was this funded by the health authority?

I don't know. I mean, I think it was part of Cardinal's

dirty tricks campaign when we started a public protest.

Do you have evidence that Cardinal did anything at all underhand?

Well, no, not really.

Did your new GP find any other patients who suffered similarly?

A boy with problems like Henri.

They thought that pesticides were to blame.

His parents live next door to a farmer's field that was sprayed a lot.

Where did this person live?

- Two miles from where I live. - Within the incinerator danger zone?

My lord...

Mrs Mills, you've yet to establish that such a zone exists.

Did your GP see any connection

between the birth defects and Peaks Farm incinerator?

No, no, no. Mrs Mills, no.

Did your GP find any other similar birth problems?

Well, he started asking other GPs in a 10-mile radius, but he got into trouble.

Who with?

The health authority said that GPs shouldn't be doing that sort of work.

It wasn't ethical.

Did he find other patients?

About 12.

Twelve within the 10-mile radius of Peaks Farm incinerator?

The epidemiologist who my GP got to look into it

said that it was too high to be a coincidence.

The norm is 1 birth defect in a 25-mile radius.

Mrs Peacock, you stated there's no history of abortions in your family.

Your mother had three.

Oh!

- Did... Did she? - Well, according to her medical records.

My lord, these have not been disclosed to us.

You have an explanation?

I see. I will disregard this evidence.

Despite you and your husband's campaigning,

you're not very well informed.

For example, did you know that dioxins exist everywhere in the world?

In water, the air, soil.

Yes. But they're heaviest around waste incinerators.

- Do you sleep in a bed? - Yes, of course.

- Did you buy your mattress new? - When we moved into the cottage.

Were you aware that some mattresses and sheets are laced with chemicals

which can damage the immune system,

cause birth defects, arrest brain development?

Well, no.

Isn't it true, Mrs Peacock,

that through your campaigning you're more interested in blaming

rather than rectifying the problem or moving on?

That's not true. It's not.

Isn't the problem a little closer to home

with what your husband brought home from work on his clothes?

- No. We looked into that. - Did you?

Did you consider it before the incinerator plant was built

when, in all probability, the damage was already done

- to you and your baby? - No. It couldn't have.

- John shouldn't be hearing this. - Yes. I'm sure you're right.

Dad'll probably make it harder for us, not easier, Mum.

Oh, yes, Charlie.

Grandad's coming for dinner. Why don't you join us?

I can't tonight.

Charlie, the Judge would like to see you.

Me too, Coop?

Just Charlie.

Paul, I've got the car.

I never knew that about Mum.

You know their tricks. We'll get them back.

That's all you think about.

I'm tired, Paul.

I'm just so weary.

Don't you find it odd, that GP, Dr Matthews,

conveniently going to Sussex?

- Did you find out who funded her? - I'm not sure.

Well, it is curious. I'd have researched that.

Dad, Mum said you shouldn't even be hearing this case.

Oh, she's fighting Neil's corner.

Do you ever hear from that lecturer you were close to at Sussex?

- Henry? - Henry. Yeah. He could be helpful.

- You're supposed to be impartial. - I'm trying to get to the truth.

I could call Henry.

- I'd have to tell Jo. - Mmm-hmm.

Best not get back to your Mum, though. She could get a retrial.

Do you want dinner?

I can't. I'm sorry.

- Neil's joining us, Daddy. - What?

- I hope you don't mind. - I accept that things will change

the more you become part of Haughton's life.

But I don't want to become part of Haughton's life.

It's these wretched accusations. People can't believe them.

People tend to believe what they want to believe.

I won't hear a word said against him.

He should submit to an enquiry to clear his name.

He doesn't see why he should.

Ah, that'll be him.

I think I'll dine at the club.

Joe, how nice. Darling.

- Daddy says he can't stay. - Oh. I wanted your advice.

Would you take it if I gave it?

Goodnight.

George?

Daddy says you should submit to an enquiry to clear your name.

- Is that what you want? - I want whatever makes you happy.

Seeing your ex kicked off the bench will do.

With your leave, my lord,

I'd like to call the epidemiologist, Professor Margaret Moriarty.

Until recently did you hold the chair in Community Medicine at Sussex University?

Yes, I did. My specialism was in dioxins.

The effects of chemical pollutants is my main field.

Can you tell us why you're currently between chairs?

I helped some students involved in a big pesticide-poisoning case

with their evidence.

The manufacturers took exception to my evidence.

They subsequently made huge funding grants

to the Chemistry and Environmental Health Departments at the university.

I suspect my contract not being renewed...

My lord, does this have anything to do with Cardinal Waste?

Quite. Does it, Mrs Mills?

I haven't found a connection between the funding grant and Cardinal.

- I live in hope. - Move on.

Professor Moriarty, can you tell us what dioxins are?

The unintended by-products of industrial processes

which burn chlorine with organic matter.

The principal source?

Incinerating waste, especially paper waste and plastics.

Incinerated hospital waste is a major source of dioxins.

They go into the atmosphere?

More than local councils and incinerator companies tell us.

- Do you have evidence of that? - Yes. It's mostly kept secret.

Is there a solution to this problem we have with rubbish in your opinion?

Cut down on the use of chlorinated paper products and plastics.

I see.

Professor, you recently examined the incineration at Peaks Farm.

Can you tell us what you found?

Evidence of dioxins in the chimneys throughout the range.

50% were in the upper range of TEFs, one to four.

- Are they injurious to health? - Very.

When dioxins enter the food chain

they become embedded in fatty tissue where they affect our cells.

Pregnant women are most at risk.

Dioxins cause spontaneous abortion, birth defects, cancer.

They cause cells to divide erroneously,

causing babies to be born with anything from cleft palates to fused organs.

Chromosome damage occurs

producing gaps and breaks in both skin and organ tissues.

- Have you seen such birth defects? - Yes.

They're very disturbing.

Have you read the physicians' reports on baby Henri?

Yes, I have.

Can you look at the photos in your bundle marked C at 18?

Is that a photo of baby Henri?

Yes, at about three months.

Does the damage in any way correspond with the effects of dioxin poisoning?

More or less exactly.

Is there anything you wish to add?

I am puzzled at the different dioxin levels

between what one would expect from ordinary household waste

and those found at the plant.

They suggest a high rate of PVC burning.

- Is that significant? - PVC burning indicates hospital waste.

Because this contains far greater quantities of chlorine,

incinerators are only licensed to burn small amounts.

Burning chlorine at too low temperatures causes such high levels of dioxins.

Thank you.

Did you do the principal work in 1987

about sheep dip and the water tables of England and Wales?

- Yes, I was one of its authors. - Oh. Is this modesty,

or are you now trying to disassociate yourself from the work?

I'm doing no such thing.

You were, in fact, its main author,

and its conclusions were erroneous, were they not?

No. They were only contradicted by chemical companies

whose scientists were bought and paid for.

- Do you have evidence of this? - It happens all the while.

Big vested interests using the power of their purse to distort facts.

You don't have evidence.

I see. Thank you.

Your conclusion that pesticides and insecticides

had reached dangerous levels in the water tables

was both wrong and born out of a political ideology.

No.

Oh. In publishing your paper you failed to declare the interests

of the environmental group that had funded you.

No. Other organisations were also helping

to fund the chair at the university.

A group that campaigns against what it perceives

to be the big polluters, chemical companies.

My paper wasn't biased.

You were funded by an organisation,

were totally dependent on that organisation,

shared its political outlook,

yet, by some strange quirk of nature, remained impervious to bias?

- Amazing. - I wasn't biased.

"Chemical companies conspire to defeat legislation to prevent them polluting."

Does that sound familiar?

It's true. They don't care about the future of our children.

These companies get together and conspire to pollute the planet?

They conspire to maintain profits by exploiting loopholes in the law.

Then it's fair to say you come from a biased position.

I'm being factual.

Were you factual when you accused chemical companies

of forcing you out of your university post?

They did. They made massive grants to get me out.

Not to help further science?

They used all sorts of dirty tricks.

They even sent a psychiatrist to interview me undercover.

They put out lies about my mental health.

Did you not have to take a leave of absence due to stress?

Only because of what they were doing, because I was getting to the truth. I...

If your report on the toxicity levels at Peaks Farm is true,

- why aren't the workers getting ill? - Some of them are.

They're scared of losing their jobs if they talk.

They might more reasonably fear losing their lives if what you say is true.

Do you know what Peaks Farm was

before it became a state-of-the-art incineration facility?

A timber-importing company.

Do chemicals used in the treatment of timber

also cause dioxins?

Yes. I suppose it's possible.

In fact, you know it is.

You wrote a paper in 1996

for your politically active environmental group

condemning the practice, saying it was,

"harming workers in the industry and their families".

It was.

If Mrs Peacock's baby was affected by dioxins,

it's possible that these came from the treatment of timber,

not the efficient incinerator.

- Yes? - No.

Dioxins from their chimneys damaged Henri.

Cardinal are not getting away with it like that. They're not.

I blew it for you. I'm so sorry.

The judge will assess the facts, not the emotion.

- They just twist everything. - You made your points.

See you tomorrow.

Did she hurt us, Jo?

Your tutorial was at 5:00.

How would you know if you never look up from your screen?

Charlie.

I knew it couldn't be one of my swots. How are you?

The real world's hard, Henry.

Too many criminals. You should have opted for tort.

Something interesting?

Passengers suing a cruise company for rough seas.

- Do you like what you see? - Oh, Charlie,

still too upfront for a man's ease.

You're going to make a frightening judge.

If I survive long enough.

- Let's go for some coffee. - What about your 5:00?

Well, probably no more serious about tort than you were.

I do remember Professor Moriarty.

How could you forget Sherlock Holmes' nemesis?

She seemed to think everyone was conspiring to get rid of her.

Were they?

I doubt it. There's never enough time in the academic year.

Soon after her departure, funding did come through for the new science block.

It was coincidental.

I didn't see any connection. I was on the committee at the time.

The money gets pledged and Margaret Moriarty departs

with a very good severance package.

I wish they'd let me go on the same terms.

The money didn't come from the chemical companies.

It was some sort of PR firm. Mentor, I think they were called.

Why's a PR company funding science? It must be millions.

I suppose they could be a conduit for science-based companies.

Could that include an incineration plant like Cardinal?

I've no idea.

Is this a court case or another one of your campaigns?

All I ever have time for is work now, Henry.

What about the GP who came here? Dr Alison Matthews?

She was studying epidemiology. Was she funded by this PR company

- to do her research? - How would I know?

I'm not even on the finance committee now.

This is important, Henry.

Charlie, I don't think I could even find such information.

All right. Give me your phone number.

Charlie Deed. Hey, Henry.

Well, that's brilliant. Then there was some sort of conspiracy.

You may think that,

but remember, in law you can have correlation without causation.

I'm betting there is a causal link.

All right, Henry. Thank you. I'll call you.

An old friend at Sussex.

A PR company called Mentor

sponsored Mrs Peacock's first GP, Dr Matthews,

after she'd made the dioxins connection.

They also funded a huge research programme at the uni,

and that was the pressure that got rid of Professor Moriarty

after she started making noises about Cardinal, too.

But what does that prove, Charlie?

Well, Mentor are entirely funded by science-based companies.

Do they include Cardinal?

My friend couldn't find that link, but...

- Then how does it relate to our case? - Well, it's pretty suspicious, Jo.

How did you get started on all this, Charlie?

- Dad suggested I look there. - Discussing this case with your dad

could cause a retrial in front of another judge.

- Well, he only said... - I don't care what he said.

He should know better.

What's she so worked up about?

- Difference in approach. - Are we going to have dinner?

Best wait till after the trial, Mum, in case I let something slip.

Is there something to let slip?

- How's Neil? - Still furious with your father.

- Is he going to survive? - I'm less sure about your father.

Charlie, the intention was good, but we do have to be so careful.

- I did tell Dad. - I know.

Why don't you spend the day at Companies House?

- Find out all you can about Mentor. - What about the work here?

It's the council official talking about the plant.

Charlie, it was a good move.

All rise.

Mrs Mills?

With your leave, my lord, I'd like to call Richard Stokes.

Mr Stokes is a compliance officer with the council

and investigates residents' complaints.

The Attorney General would like to see you at 4:15.

- Doesn't he know I'm sitting? - Yeah. I did point it out.

All right.

I'm sorry, Sir John, the Attorney is still delayed.

- Are you sure I can't offer you tea? - I don't think so.

- John, I'm terribly sorry. - I hope it's worth waiting for.

Please.

Won't you take a seat, John?

If it's not good news, Alan, I don't need to sit down for it.

The Chief Constable of Sussex interviewed Rufus Barron personally.

He denied the allegations against Sir Tim Listfield.

He said he'd made it up so he could win his court case.

And was it pointed out to him that he could be charged with perjury?

He was prepared to take that risk.

Well, he's obviously scared. Somebody's leaned on him.

The Cabinet has referred the matter of your removal to both Houses.

- Was Haughton present? - He is a senior member of the Cabinet.

I'm sorry, John, but this really is the end of the line.

I always thought the hearing came before the sentence.

The Lord Chancellor requires that you relinquish the case you're hearing.

I won't give up.

- Hello? - John, it's Joe, Joe Channing.

Oh, this is a surprise. Yeah. Come on up.

John, I was at the club. I heard the news.

- Is it true? - Oh, yes.

Is there anything to be done?

Well, if you could find some damning evidence against Haughton.

I can't believe there isn't any.

They're trying to shut me out of this current trial.

Yes, well, if you were to resist them,

I'm sure they wouldn't want to undermine the authority

- of a High Court Judge in public. - Ah.

It all stems from that claimant you slept with.

Why didn't you confine yourself to the female bar?

Oh, Joe.

- What is it about women? - What?

Well, it's the way they look at you,

the way they touch you, the softness of their skin,

the smell of their hair.

You long for the flame to finally extinguish, and then when it does,

you spend your night hours longing for it to rekindle.

Yes.

Get something on the Home Secretary, John,

and I'm sure your fellow judges will oppose your impeachment.

John, the court manager's just informed me that the case isn't going to proceed.

I'd say he was exceeding his authority.

The Lord Chancellor is going to impeach me.

Well, you didn't take them seriously.

Well, I had to find the truth behind the Haughton allegation.

Charlie's discovered a PR company, Mentor, is involved in this case.

Who are they?

They've been running a damage limitation campaign for Cardinal.

It connects both Listfield and Haughton.

- How? - Both were on the board of Mentor.

Haughton resigned when he joined the Government.

Coop, tell Mrs Channing I'll see her in court, 10 minutes.

Fine, Mrs Cooper, but this case is a dead duck.

You risk him giving judgment in favour of the claimants

if you don't appear.

This is your fight, not mine. I can't see Rufus Barron.

Could help you win this trial.

You just want to swat Neil, Dad. He's going to marry Mum.

Yep, you're right. I shouldn't have involved you.

- I'm sorry. I just mean... - No, no, no. Come on.

We've got a trial to conduct.

John!

John, I've just had Rochester on saying I must stop you

until the debate for your removal is heard.

And what was your response, Monty?

You're a High Court Judge until that happens.

If this is about the case, I'll hear you. If not, I won't.

It's about the case which you should no longer be hearing.

If you want to withdraw your defence in favour of the claimant,

please feel free to do so.

No? Right. Mrs Mills?

With your leave, my lord, we'd like to call Professor Vang Pao.

Professor Pao is a lecturer and a practising paediatrician

in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Professor Pao, are you one of, if not the leading authority

- on babies affected by dioxins? - Yes.

In the '60s, the US military persistently sprayed

my country with a defoliant known as Agent Orange.

Its legacy is, sadly, many babies born dead

or with mutagenic or teratogenic deformities.

Can you tell the court what these consist of?

Children with malformed spines, undeveloped limbs, fused organs,

often no eyes, noses, mouths or genitalia.

Can you tell us how these deformities are caused?

Dioxins are the most toxic chemicals known to man.

They are bio accumulative.

Once entering the water and food chain, they increase their concentration

and become impossible to eradicate.

When breathed, ingested or absorbed through the skin

they cause cells to mutate, especially those of a foetus.

These divide and destroy the immune and central nervous systems.

Do you come up against its effects in your medical practice?

Yes, I do.

Even though the war in Vietnam was brought to an end 35 years ago.

My patients are second-generation children

suffering from dioxin poisoning.

Is there anything to be done about this toxicity?

Most urgently we must stop producing and spreading dioxins further in the world.

Is there any doubt that dioxins cause teratogenic deformities in babies

or mothers to miscarry?

Repeated case studies show

that many women exposed to dioxins in the form of aerial spraying

either miscarried or produced mutagenic babies.

Were these mothers in direct contact with the spraying?

No, sir.

Some are wives of workers where dioxins in herbicides are used.

Also large numbers of families of servicemen

who went to Vietnam are affected.

Thank you.

Professor Pao, did you examine baby Henri Peacock?

- I did. - Would you tell us what you found?

The little girl is suffering irreparable damage of the spine.

Each of the vertebrae has a 60% distortion.

The nervous system is malfunctioning.

She has one eye only.

Her external organs of smell and hearing are absent

and she has a cleft palate.

In your opinion, what caused these problems?

One can never be absolute, but with some degree of certainty

the cause was the parents breathing or ingesting dioxins

over months or years before birth.

These would accumulate and affect the endocrine system,

their ability to reproduce effectively.

Are these likely to go on affecting them, Professor?

For all their lives.

They will never reproduce successfully.

You stated the incineration plant was the source

of the Peacock's contamination.

If the parents had been in contact with pesticides containing dioxins,

- would you be as confident? - Other sources of contamination

would make the plant only a contributing factor.

If one parent were in contact with dioxins,

say through working with treated timber,

- could the same consequences follow? - Of course.

As with American babies whose fathers were in Vietnam.

Were you paid to come here and give evidence?

- Yes. I received payment. - You had your fare paid for?

Yes.

I lecture in paediatric toxicology at Leeds University.

Giving evidence coincided with my lectures.

- Giving paid evidence. - How much were you paid, Professor?

The same for conducting my clinic in Vietnam.

The exchange is about $5 a day.

Any more questions, Mrs Channing?

With your taking over the questioning, hardly.

And make the most of it while you can, my lord.

Mrs Mills?

Thank you.

Hello?

Rufus Barron? It's Charlie Deed.

I already told you on the phone, I don't want to talk to you.

Please. Just one minute. One minute, that's all.

You're wasting your time.

Thank you.

- Hi, I'm Charlie Deed. - Go away or I'll call the police.

- If you do that I could get disbarred. - Then you'd best get going.

- Five minutes. That's all. - Five?

- You only wanted one. - Look, you don't have to let me in.

We can talk through the door. Please. It's important.

Five minutes.

But I don't know anything about Cardinal Waste.

Hey, this is a great flat.

- You collect paintings? - Well, none of them are valuable.

I suppose this one might be one day.

I've got two of her paintings.

Where did you learn about art?

- From Tim Listfield? - You're kidding.

I taught him everything. Still he knows nothing.

It's true.

Oh, he buys paintings and knows how to get good deals.

That's all.

He never went to an art gallery or a theatre, come to that,

unless it was to meet someone to bribe them.

Why did you withdraw your allegation about the bribe?

You sure you're not a journalist?

They've been dogging me ever since the case.

I told you, I'm a junior barrister in the case against Cardinal.

Look.

- That's not a living baby? - Mmm-hmm.

She's 18 months old.

It's caused by dioxins belching out of Cardinal's incinerator.

That's really gross.

Mentor PR are telling everyone it doesn't happen,

that Cardinal are innocent.

Mentor would have made Adolf Hitler sound good.

You know them?

- Yep. - Dad?

- Yeah? - Is it okay to come up?

Sure.

- Are you sure it's okay? - Yeah.

Hiya.

Are you getting paranoid or do you imagine

I'm having the sort of social life I'm not having?

I've just talked to Rufus Barron.

He does have evidence about Listfield bribing Neil.

That's not what he told the Chief Constable.

- He's dead scared, Dad. - And with good reason.

How did you get him to talk?

I persuaded him you're the only one who can help him.

He's really upset about baby Henri.

He's going to try and find something on Mentor.

Don't talk to me about the case. Do you want some soup?

Ask Mr Barron to come to the chambers at the adjournment, would you, Coop?

He was a defendant, Judge.

It's a bit late to worry about niceties, Coop.

Mr Peacock, since your involvement in the campaign

against Cardinal's incinerator,

how many trips have you made to the plant to count lorries?

I don't know. I didn't think to count at first.

But about 180 since I started keeping detailed records.

If you look at your notes,

can you tell the court how they differ from the company's records?

Well, the company records, they show only two lorry loads

- of hospital waste coming in a month. - What item is that?

Eleven in folder B, my lord.

They had 908 loads of rubbish in July.

Only two lorries with hospital waste, supposedly.

But according to the records we got from inside the plant,

they had nearer to 28.

That's 26 more than the permitted quota.

How did you get these records from inside the plant?

We found someone on the inside who helped us.

Are you calling this person, Mrs Mills?

No, my lord. The person won't be identified.

I see.

Thank you, Mr Peacock.

- You're a thief and a liar. - What?

- Do you have a criminal record? - Well, no, not really.

Oh, not really, but maybe.

Well, yes. I was only 19.

Ah, Mrs Channing, in civil proceedings, cross-examination of spent convictions

is prohibited under Section 4 of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.

It may well be spent,

but you have the discretion to permit me to put his record to him.

I'm asking you to exercise that in favour of my client

because of the importance of this witness's credibility.

My lord, Mr Peacock has not since offended

and there's no reason to assume that he's not telling the truth.

Well, the credibility of the witness is plainly relevant

to Mrs Channing's case. No.

I give leave to adduce the witness's record.

Mr Peacock, can you tell the court how you came by information

- from inside Cardinal's plant? - It was passed on to me by a worker.

- We only have your word for that. - It's true.

Didn't you simply concoct these figures to suit your argument?

- No. I didn't. - You lied before. Why not now?

My lie wasn't hurting no one, not like theirs.

There's no evidence that Cardinal have lied about anything.

They're poisoning people!

When you were picketing the incinerator plant,

did you lose your temper with the workers?

- I don't remember. I was pretty angry. - You get angry very quickly.

So would you be if that happened to your child.

On one of your visits to the plant,

did you fly into a rage and threaten to kill the manager?

He's killing us.

Did you threaten to get even,

- to get the plant closed down? - What if I did?

If the plant was so damaging, why didn't you move away?

No! This is our home.

I'll tear that plant down brick by brick before that.

Then you care little for the health of your family?

- No. They're everything. - But you wouldn't move away.

You can't say that. Who do you think you are?

You people, you don't even care who you hurt.

Mr Peacock, I think you should step outside and calm yourself.

They're beating us, aren't they?

They attacked your credibility, that's all.

How do they get that stuff?

They spend a lot of money on investigators, corrupt officials.

- I'd like to wring their necks. - Do you think that we can win, Jo?

I did say it wouldn't be easy, not with what's at stake, but...

What about Henri? Could you bring her into court?

- She needs constant attention. - It might be helpful if you can.

You! You think you're so superior, don't you? You're just filth.

- I'm sorry? - We're going to ruin you.

- Oh, drop it. - Paul, please leave it.

And, you, our council tax pays you.

- Why don't you calm down? - It's not your home under attack, is it?

- The council did offer to re-house you. - Guard.

Yeah. What about Henri, eh?

How are you going to make her whole again?

- Oh, grow up. - You...

- Paul, Paul, they're not worth it. - Calm down.

I didn't think I'd ever come back here willingly.

I must be mad.

- Mr Barron, Judge. - Thanks, Coop.

Up until September last year, I was personal assistant

to the businessman Sir Tim Listfield.

He prosecuted me for theft,

but in fact he gave me money to put in a secret account, 3.7 million.

Tim's a billionaire.

An extra £700,000 was added to the charge already against me.

This was the money I had to withdraw in cash

which Tim gave to the then Secretary of State for Trade, Neil Haughton.

Why did he give him the money?

As a bribe, to get him to sign off on all the false billing

his company was making on a defence contract,

a new radar system for the navy.

He was in with the judge for about an hour.

- This is Barron's whole statement. - Thanks, Coop.

What do you want done with it?

Take it to the Attorney General. That way I know it's there.

I'll see the Attorney gets the transcript, Mrs Cooper.

- The judge asked me to get a receipt. - That's most unusual.

Very well.

It's the key to the self-storage lock-up on Brighton Road.

Will it still be open?

- Till 10:00. - Great.

Is this all evidence?

Every piece of paper from the navy's radar contract.

Could you take notes, please?

There is a number of clear plastic boxes.

And this one,

appears to contain photocopies

of invoices relating to MOD contracts.

This one's got my diaries.

Well, there's far too many for us to take with us now.

We'll come back for them. I'll take the diaries with me now.

Will you make a note of the number of boxes,

the date, the time, the address of the lock-up,

and the fact that Mr Barron is willing for us to take them?

Paul?

- What's the matter? - Is Henri okay?

She's sleeping.

Paul?

What if we're wrong, Paul?

What if it was me?

You know, working with wood treatment?

I think you should turn this evidence straight over to the police.

Well, it's interesting,

but I'm not sure that these diaries even amount to evidence.

We don't know yet whether the files are going to provide

- any evidence against Haughton. - So then you're no further forward.

They don't know that, do they?

Does Barron's transcript incriminate the Home Secretary?

No, it doesn't.

Deed isn't asking for a trial. He wants a judicial enquiry,

which we might have to give him.

Mr Barron was plausible enough for a jury to have freed him,

and now it seems that Deed has evidence to support his allegations.

The Home Secretary assures me he has no evidence.

We should push on with his removal.

If you could make it go any faster, Ian, I'm sure you would.

I'm concerned Parliament debates this before prorogation.

Thank you for this.

Mr Peacock, while accepting the tragedy of your daughter's condition,

isn't it true to say that this is of your own making rather than Cardinal's?

No. They were burning waste they shouldn't have been burning.

You know this from your mysterious insider?

- Yes. - Whose documents you don't have?

They were stolen.

If, as you claim, you have evidence that the incinerator is the cause

of you and your wife's health problems, why didn't you move away?

How could we? We can't afford to move.

The cottage is worthless thanks to the incinerator.

Isn't this whole campaign to cover the fact

that this misfortune was of your own making?

You worked with chemicals.

- You brought them home. - No. No, it's not.

You wanted so much for the incinerator to be the cause.

It is the cause.

They blighted little Henri's life, our lives.

Looking after her 24 hours a day, never any respite.

Can't you see it's the incinerator?

- It is! - Thank you, Mr Peacock.

Thank you, Mr Peacock. You can step down.

The council won't give us any help.

They just want to stick Henri in a home. We won't let that happen.

Thank you.

The courier service say all the boxes in the lock-up have gone.

Where? How?

Thank you.

An urgent matter not related to this case has come up.

- I'm going to take a short adjournment. - All rise.

Any further explanation, Coop?

Perhaps Sir Ian Rochester has one. He's waiting, Judge.

Did you call Mr Barron?

John, do you actually have any evidence against Haughton?

- Do you know that I don't? - I know no such thing.

I have Barron's diaries.

Are these another part of his fanciful world?

The Leader of the House has set a timetable for your removal,

- before prorogation of Parliament. - That seems indecently hasty.

Yes, doesn't it?

Unless and until it succeeds, I'm still a High Court Judge.

I do beg your pardon, my lord.

Will you have heard the Cardinal case before then?

That would depend upon how well prepared the defence is.

If not, the trial will have to be abandoned and a retrial set.

Not unless the consent of the Queen is given for my removal.

- Yes. - Yes.

Thank you, Mrs Cooper.

I'd be surprised if he didn't know about that missing evidence.

Get me the Chief Constable, would you please, Coop?

- And ask Charlie to step in. - Sure.

Charlie, the judge would like a word.

Is he under a lot of pressure?

Yep?

Don't go, Coop. This is business.

- Do you want some coffee? - Are you all right?

We need to see Rufus Barron.

There must have been something caught on CCTV camera.

Not according to the Chief Constable.

The van that took the boxes away had no registration plates,

had no distinguishing features.

- We should have taken them last night. - Yeah. You're probably right.

Are you sure there's nothing else?

Why do you think I went to so much trouble hiding it all?

I'm stuck.

Look, I have the access codes to the Mentor offices.

You could still defeat Listfield if I found evidence.

I can't possibly sanction what you're suggesting.

I'll call you.

Cardinal is an ethical company.

Managing the country's waste is an ethical pursuit.

Our little nation produces enough rubbish annually

to put a blanket three inches thick over the entire English Channel.

How did you respond to the campaign against Peaks Farm?

I was shocked. We care about the community we live in.

As managing director of Cardinal Waste Management PLC,

- where do you live, Sir Peter? - In a village near Guildford.

Sir Peter, you may find it appropriate to walk around your village

near Guildford with your hands in your pockets,

but not in this courtroom, please.

My lord.

Do you have an incinerator plant across from your back garden?

No.

You need infrastructure for such a plant, a harbour, ideally.

So when you say you care about the community you live in,

- you weren't actually talking about you. - I was speaking about the company.

Whose plant you prefer not to have in your backyard?

If we wish to live as we do, we must accept the consequences,

make sacrifices.

But while some people make the profits and live in pleasant villages,

other people have to live with the risks and make the sacrifices, don't they?

It's perfectly safe.

Do you have children, Sir Peter? Perfectly well and whole children?

- It is a clean, harmless process. - That you don't live near.

My lord, where is this going?

Move on, Mrs Mills.

Two summers ago, did you have a plague of flies at the plant?

We dealt with those very swiftly.

By spraying insecticide so that your neighbours

- had to keep their windows shut. - Mmm-hmm.

And then there are the smells that people are constantly complaining about.

Your clients come from farming stock. Farms aren't smell free.

The rats, the flies, the smells, the thundering traffic on the roads

as 30-ton lorries carry piles of rubbish to be burnt,

these are all tangible pollutants, Sir Peter.

But the real problem that Mr and Mrs Peacock can't avoid

are the deadly dioxins that float invisibly from your chimneys,

polluting all they touch,

damaging the map of human existence for generations,

and robbing Mr and Mrs Peacock

of any chance of ever having a normal, healthy family.

There are no dangerous, insidious dioxins escaping from Peaks Farm.

Can you be sure, Professor Neame?

We make this our full-time study

at the Institute of Research and Clinical Practice at Oxford.

We train world experts in the field.

Are you saying dioxins aren't harmful?

Some are deadly, especially at grade one.

Such dioxins aren't issuing from Cardinal's chimneys.

But dioxins were found in and around the site

and at the Peacock's house nearby.

We have to look to the previous use for the site,

a timber importer.

Most likely the dioxins came from treated wood.

Scrap wood burnt in the yard at low temperatures

would have caused dioxins to migrate.

What a day!

He's trying to make the most of his last gasp on the bench

by sitting a longer day than any other judge.

He won't get this done before he's removed.

I wouldn't count on it being his last breath, George.

Charlie?

Dad, it's me. I'm going to go and see Rufus.

There's a lot of security.

This is as close as I should go.

Do you think you should be doing this, Rufus?

This isn't really for you or your dad.

It's to protect me.

I won't be safe until someone takes down Listfield.

The keys are in the ignition. If anything happens, just go.

I don't want to see you disbarred.

Rufus.

Good luck.

What are you doing here, miss?

Um, I was tired. I just pulled over to have a rest.

You can't park here. This is private property.

Sorry.

Rufus, it's me.

I posted your keys through the letterbox.

Call me.

- Who pays for your research work? - I don't understand the question.

I'm funded by IRCP Oxford and the Ford Institute in Washington.

Industry funds your projects there, pays your salary?

Industry has the most interest in protecting the environment.

Would you tell the court how much you're being paid to give evidence?

How does it have any bearing?

Professor, you've been asked a legitimate question.

It's £90,000.

For what exactly?

My expertise, my time, my research into background.

Right, okay.

- Who's writing the cheque? - The company who hired me, Mentor.

They're a problem-solving logistics company.

And they're funded by industry?

The industry is concerned to be well regulated.

In the '70s and '80s, there were a lot of

alternative, green-orientated epidemiological studies.

Most were inaccurate.

The methodology involved small, community-based studies.

Have you put forward the view that the symptoms of people

in the immediate vicinity of sites like Peaks Farm

are produced by hysteria? Are psychosomatic?

It often happens.

Like Mr and Mrs Peacock's daughter, Henri?

Or the woman two miles away whose baby was mutagenic

or the other 12 similar babies born within a 10-mile radius

- of the incinerator? - They are a statistical aberration.

Our studies involving over 25,000 people are more accurate.

Bought and paid for by the industry. You delivered what they paid for.

I think you've identified too much with your clients.

His studies only look at males, not pregnant women.

Isn't it true, Professor, that in your study you look only at males?

We don't get to see the effect on female reproduction.

There are more males in this particular industry.

But you chose not to include their female partners

or pregnancies and births.

Hmm?

Is there no value in small, community-based studies?

It would be foolish to say none.

They certainly reflect how people feel when asked.

They are irrelevant to science.

If you take a small group who are unhappy about a particular industry,

they will tend to blame that industry for all of their problems.

Thank you, Professor Neame.

Professor Pao, before we leave the matter of epidemiological studies,

would you mind if I asked you a few more questions, please?

Thank you, Professor Neame. You can step down.

You are still under oath.

Professor, is there significant difference in accuracy

between large epidemiological studies and small ones?

Yes.

Small-scale qualitative studies stay focused on their original objective.

With large scale reviews, multi-centred studies,

you are dealing with very diffused statistics

from which it is impossible to extrapolate

specific and exact information about sub-groups, like pregnant women.

Big studies give more opportunities to disguise some results.

Are you saying researchers intentionally disguise the results?

Few of us are without bias.

Thank you, Professor. You can step down.

Mrs Peacock, is your daughter in the building?

- Yes. - Might I see her?

Yeah.

She has a lovely smile.

Are you all right, Judge?

That baby seemed so valiant

against all the odds.

I hope you find in the parents' favour.

Find Mrs Mills for me, would you, Coop?

Mrs Mills, the Judge would like to see you.

See you.

- Mrs Mills, Judge. - Thanks, Coop.

This was a very difficult case to resolve.

I feel such a burden of responsibility to that child.

Good. Then find in her favour.

There is no doubt that dioxins caused these horrific deformities.

What did Cardinal imagine was happening to the dioxins

- when they went up their chimneys? - Jo.

You have to have shown that Cardinal was the cause

and they foresaw it happening.

You haven't made your case on either point.

Thank you for telling me ahead of the judgment.

I'd have liked to have helped this child, but the law won't let me.

- I'll warn the Peacocks. - Okay.

By the way, there is no evidence against Haughton.

Tomorrow, Parliament will debate my removal.

- They can't throw you off the bench. - Oh, yes, they can.

- Well, then stop them... - What would you have me do?

Argue your case some more with the Attorney General.

Jo.

I've got nothing left to fight them with.

John, you cannot give up.

If you are not on the bench, there will be no one left to resist Haughton.

None of the other judges will.

Unless my impeachment is stopped, I'll take the diaries to the media.

That's below the belt, John. These are unfounded allegations.

It's a trade-off, Alan.

Ugly, but you get the diaries, I stay on the bench.

And Cardinal?

- I think you're bluffing. - Well...

Call me.

I can't stop your removal on my own. I'll have to talk to my colleagues.

And the diaries?

How near to ending is the Cardinal case, Ian?

- Quite close. - If we delay for his judgment,

there won't be enough time for both Houses to petition the Queen.

We can't trust him to deal with this in the right way.

We must remove him now.

But if he does go the right way, we'll have finally brought him to heel.

You know the political maxim, Neil, "If in doubt, delay."

I am going to advise the PM to wait.

I'm going to advise him not to.

Jo, this came from Rufus Barron.

It's over, Charlie, for us, your Dad, too.

I've got to talk to the Peacocks.

Cardinal knew that there was a design fault in their chimneys.

What?

Mentor advised them it would be cheaper to settle any possible claims

that might arise than rectify this problem.

Are we imagining this? Did you talk to Mr Barron?

I can't get hold of him, but it's real.

We've got to talk to the Judge. See if he'll admit it. He must!

Come on.

Alan, tell Haughton and Rochester all bets are off.

It's too late. Read my lips. It is too late to submit such evidence.

Mrs Channing, I have heard your argument for not admitting this evidence.

I have been directed to the law pertaining to late evidence.

Cases of this nature, where lives are at risk,

where the possible future of the species is at risk,

are not a simply a matter of winning or losing, but of finding the truth.

- Which you know, of course. - We will call the author of this report.

I will ask you to recall Sir Peter Tufton of Cardinal PLC

- for whom this report was commissioned. - I'm not inclined to do that.

I will have the truth here.

Sir Peter, will you go back into the witness box, please?

- Remember you are still under oath. - My lord.

Will you look at this report? Thank you.

Made on behalf of Cardinal PLC by Mentor

as to the state of the incinerator chimney.

Will you tell the court when you first saw it?

May 1999.

One year after the plant opened.

He's allowed in late evidence.

The question is what are you going to do about it?

It's too late for impeachment. Parliament has prorogued.

- I want Deed removed. - Only the judges can stop him now.

We must proceed. The judges must insist on his removal.

The judges accept that he behaved shamefully,

but they are unanimous in this,

that to pursue Deed now would seem as if

they're paying him back for pursuing you.

That has no bearing, Joe.

Joe never said it had, only that that is how it will appear.

- What do you say, Michael? - Oh, I'd like Deed stopped.

This looked like the means, but it's not to be.

- We could recall Parliament. - I would advise against it.

Impeachment would never be achieved on a vote in these circumstances.

No. I won't let this happen.

You have to be philosophical about these things, Neil, like me.

It's not you who will lose his job.

I'm the other half of the accusation.

Only there won't be any more evidence, Neil.

- Are you sure of that? - Very sure.

You each have a copy of my full judgment,

which I will now give to you in summary.

This was a very difficult judgment to arrive at.

On the one hand, we must try to protect the individual and the community

from the effects of potentially polluting industry.

On the other hand, we must recognise industry's place in modern society.

Industry is a means of providing both employment

and the products that most people want.

Or in the case of Cardinal Waste Management PLC,

the means of disposing of the waste.

Therein lies the problem.

The most difficult part of the case involving Mr and Mrs Peacock

and their daughter, Henri, and Cardinal,

concerned two essential points to be proven.

Causation and foreseeability.

It was shown that dioxins caused the problem.

But was it brought to their doorstep by Cardinal?

Well, from the report commissioned by Cardinal from Mentor,

it's absolutely clear that Cardinal knew that there was a problem

with the incinerator plant at Peaks Farm

and that this problem was due to a design fault.

Yet knowing this they chose, on economic grounds,

to bear the cost of any claims made against them,

cynically stating that any damages awarded in a British court

would cost them far less than shutting down and redesigning the plant.

So, in such a situation, the law allows for exemplary

or punitive damages to be awarded.

I'm therefore awarding damages towards the care of baby Henri

of £105,000 per annum for life.

I'm awarding to Mr and Mrs Peacock £500,000 for the loss of their home.

I'm also awarding damages to Paul and Pauline Peacock,

of £3,500,000

for the distress this teratogenic birth caused them.

These are my principal rulings.

In the meanwhile, I am sending a report to the DPP

and I'm asking him to explore the possibility of bringing charges

against both Cardinal and Mentor in respect of injuries

caused to Mr and Mrs Peacock, baby Henri and other members of the community.

All rise.

We will appeal.

George, the world is at last waking up to what we're all doing.

Dad?

Rufus is dead.

The police said there was a note.

They killed him,

just like he knew they would.
