Chloe Carmichael, age 41, her
body was found in her bath.

Signs of a struggle
and evidence of drug

use in the flat.

Provisional assumption
is that this was murder,

but we're waiting
on Ashley's report.

Jess.

- Okay.

So Chloe was huge in the
2000s, had lots of hit records.

She was more than your
average pop star, though.

That Christmas song
that we all know?

She gave the
royalties to charity.

Amazing.

And then at the
height of her fame,

she just walked
away from it all.

- Because?

- She had addiction
issues and she struggled

with the pressures of fame.

She was talking
about mental health

long before most celebrities.

- What else?

- Uh, early days, but this
could be a promising lead.

Luke Beckett, her
former manager.

Earlier in the
year, Chloe posted

this on her social media--
message to at Luke Beckett.

Let me live my life and
I'll let you live yours.

- Max, there's a DS I know who
works in the cybercrime unit

here in Chelsea--

Shawn Kildare.

- I know Shawn.

- He told me he'd been advising
Chloe on internet threats

a few months ago.

- Yeah.

Let's talk to him.

- We're also keen to
talk to this woman--

Zadie Evans.

She's a fashion model.

There's been press
speculation that she was

in a relationship with Chloe.

She's got a string of
drug-related convictions.

Appears to have been
staying in Chloe's flat.

- Where is she now?

- Yeah, I was her case
officer for a while.

She was being trolled
on social media,

so it was referred
to us at cybercrime.

- What sort of threats
was she getting?

- Well, there were two phases.

Um, firstly, it was her
ex-manager, Luke Beckett.

They had a long-running
financial dispute.

He was sending her
threatening messages,

stuff like, um,
I know where you live.

I could ruin you.
Don't go out alone.

Hmm.
Real nasty piece of work.

- So he could be our man.

- Yeah, I'd certainly
take a look at him.

- You said that there were
two phases to the threats.

- Well, initially,
we shut down Beckett,

but then it started up again
under a different handle.

Um, True Mirage.

We thought it was Beckett
using a fake account,

but he denied it.

I've got the transcripts
of the messages.

I can send them over.
- How long ago was this?

- Uh, initially with Beckett,
around May, June,

and then True Mirage
was July and August.

But I only saw Chloe
a handful of times,

then we closed the case.

Beginning of September.

It was a money thing.

We don't have
the resources of you guys.

did this was probably a man?

[suspenseful music]

[footsteps tapping]

- [sighs]

[door creaks and clicks]

- How far back did
you and Chloe go?

- Oh, to the beginning.

I used to manage her
in the early 2000s when

the world fell for her charms.

The glory years, yeah.

- So what happened?

- About, um, a year ago,
I suppose--

she hadn't recorded
anything in ages.

She wasn't touring.

Said she didn't need
a manager anymore.

Said she could handle
things herself, so...

I haven't seen her in months.

- And you wouldn't
have, would you?

With the restraining
order against you.

- I was owed money,
and she didn't want anything

to do with it,
so I tried to persuade her

to take some responsibility.

That seemed very
reasonable to me.

Although the magistrate
didn't see it that way.

- Why did you feel that
you were owed money?

- That Christmas
song was her pension,

or should have been,
if she hadn't given all

the royalties away to charity.

She had persuaded me to defer
my commission, not to waive it.

Right, when she terminated our
relationship, I said, look,

I don't care about the charity.
I want what's owed to me.

And she wouldn't support me.

- So you started threatening
her on social media.

- Oh, is that what you call it?

I was telling her
some home truths.

You know, Chloe, she had
lived a pretty pampered life.

It didn't hurt for someone
to stand up to her.

[telephone ringing]

transcripts Shawn sent over.

They're pretty menacing.

"The truth will out.

"You've been quiet
for so long, Chloe.

You're skating on thin ice."

bored at cybercrime.

Wasn't Max talking
about expanding the team?

He'd be a good addition.

- If you can get the funding.

- Well, I wouldn't

Did she die of an overdose?

- That's not something

linking Chloe to Zadie Evans?

- Yeah, that's right.

Sexy Zadie, Chloe's
special friend.

- Do you know Zadie?
- No. Never met her.

Chloe was very good at keeping
the different parts of her

life separate.

I assume you've
spoken to Zadie.

- We can't reveal details
of our investigation.

- So you haven't.

You didn't hear
this from me, but it

might be worth your while to
speak to Andrew Mansfield.

- Like I said, you
didn't hear it from me.

- Andrew Mansfield, the MP
for Chelsea Central?

- That's what she said.

The Post-It note
that Ashley found,

it said Tuesday, AM, which we
assumed meant Tuesday morning,

but it could equally
mean Andrew Mansfield.

- Good.

But what's his
connection to Chloe?

- We pushed her on it,
but she clammed up.

- How are the tech team
getting on with Chloe's phone?

- They haven't been able
to retrieve anything yet,

but they're working on it.

- Any luck finding Zadie Evans?

- She's still AWOL, Max.

No sign of her since
her fashion shoot.

- What if they
had a drug-fueled night,

and Zadie put Chloe in the bath
to try to bring her round?

- What, and then
there was a struggle?

Yeah, maybe.

Okay. Check with

up a meeting with Mansfield.

132 caravan parks

was a drug user,

never touched the stuff.

ask you about Chloe and IVF.

Were you aware
that she'd recently

undergone a course of treatment
at the Bramfield Clinic?

- When was this?

- It started in July.

- I wasn't aware, but
I'm not surprised.

- How do you mean?

- Chloe seemed to be leading
a healthier lifestyle.

Grandchildren would
have been nice.

That's why I kept this
place on, I suppose.

- We're trying to establish
who paid for the treatment.

Would you have any idea?

- If I didn't know
about the IVF,

I'm hardly likely to
know who paid for it.

Chloe never wanted any
help from us financially.

It was a point of
principle to her.

So you're no closer to charging
someone with Chloe's murder.

I'm saying she would have been
careful about how she came

across--I'm a police officer.

- A bit distant, to be honest,
oddly detached, considering she

was the one that reported the
trolling in the first place.

Now, could have been drugs,
hard to say, medication.

She used to tease me.

I was supplying her with drugs.
It wasn't appropriate.

And then that night,
it all got serious...

Messy.

She decided that
the relationship

had been coercive,

that I'd taken advantage
of her vulnerabilities.

I'd forced the drugs on her.

And she was going to
expose me to my bosses.

I couldn't let that stand,
could I?

She'd already taken
a lot of stuff, so...

I thought, let's get going.

Test the limits.

But, uh...

she didn't die.

So I started thinking...

what if?

Yeah?

You know?

Little accident.

I cleaned up afterwards.
