# Way down in the water

# Way down in the hole

# Far away from any soul

Where there is discord, may we bring
harmony

and where there is despair, may we
bring hope.

# I'm coming back from the fire

Put your trust in us

and we shall repay that trust

for you.

# Coming back from the fire,
not burning, no

Turn it. Spin it.

Spin the camera!

Spin the camera!

(WOMAN LAUGHING)

Jason, come on! It's ready.

Surprise...

Tea first, then presents, OK?

OK.

ALL: # Happy birthday to you

# Happy birthday to you

# Happy birthday, dear Jason

# Happy birthday to you

Make a wish.

Look.

A card from his dad.

It was under the table.

Not opened.

It's tough for him.

It's tougher for Kevin.

My client, Mr Lawton,

was tried and found guilty,

first by the press and then by
social media.

It made his life a living hell for
over two years.

It took less than a day,
today, for the truth to come out.

He should never have been arrested.

He should never have been brought to
trial.

That's the truth.

Report that.

Tweet that.

"Dear Miss Banville.

My son, Jason, turned 14 today.

His father is Kevin Russell,

who you have probably heard of.

Kevin's been in prison for 14 years,

all of Jason's life.

I'm writing to ask if you will look
at Kevin's case,

because I know he didn't kill that
girl.

I've talked to other lawyers and got
nowhere.

I have to try one more time

because I owe it to Jason

to prove that his dad isn't a killer.

That he's a good man.

Please, help us find the truth.

(WOMAN HUMMING AND BABY CHATTERING)

Hi, Miriam.
Good morning.

I'm gonna be out all day today.

You should stay with Karim, just to
be safe.

OK.

Yeah, and Steve'll be up. He'll be up
eventually.

Emma.
Hi, Annie.

I'm so grateful, I can't tell you.

You all right?
You know the rules.

No touching.

Jason sends his love.

Be nice to see him.

He'll come next time, I promise.

So, Kevin, this is Emma Banville,
the lawyer I told you about.

She's agreed to look at your case.

How much is she costing you?
She's doing it for free.

Oh, great, a stupid lawyer.

Kevin, she's come all this way.

OK. So what do you wanna know?

Can you leave us, please?

Not allowed, sorry.

I'm his solicitor. It is allowed.

And are those cameras off?
Yeah.

Cos if they're not, and anything said
in here gets leaked to the press...

They're off.
Thank you.

Go on, then.
Did you murder Linda Simms?

No, I did not. So why did you
confess to it?

Because I was tired and scared and
she never let up on me. Never.

"She." Detective Inspector Greenwood?

By the time she'd finished I'd have
confessed to killing my own mum.

Kevin, how can you confess to
something you know you didn't do?

You haven't heard of coerced
confessions, Emma?

Take a scared kid, mess with his
head, you can put any words you want
in his mouth.

That's what she did to me. Told me
how I did it, where I did it, and
why.

You were 23. Not a kid.

And most coerced confessions get
thrown out.

Yours wasn't.

You know why?

Because they had good lawyers and I
had shit lawyers and it looks like
that ain't gonna change.

ANNIE: Kevin!

Is there anything new you can give
me?

Anything about the case, anything
about the investigation.

(SIGHS) I already told 'em
everything. The police, the lawyers,
the court.

I had a good job. Then my girl,
she's pregnant, we're looking
forward to our first kid

and then I get accused of killing a
girl I don't even know.

A witness saw you talk to her the
night she disappeared.

At a school disco with 200 kids.

I didn't kill her. If you think I
did, then why are you here?

Cos Annie believes you didn't and she
convinced me.

But without new evidence I'm never
gonna get your case before the Review
Commission.

So...

think, Kevin.

Is there anything new you can give
me?

No. There's nothing new.

(BANGS ON THE DOOR)

Steady on. You done? Yeah, we're
done.

I'll bring Jason next time, Kev.

You know what that police woman
said?

She said if I confessed, it would
help me in court and with my boy.

When did she say that to you?

But it didn't help me in court and
it didn't help me with my boy
because he's been to see me twice

in the last six years and he
obviously hates my guts.

None of this is in the transcripts.
When did she say that?

So I guess she lied.

Police lie to get a conviction. Is
that new enough for you?

When did she say that to you? When?

(WOMEN SINGING FAINTLY)

(CAR HORN BLARES)

(TRAIN RUMBLING PAST)

Even if his confession's thrown out,
the forensics convict him.

Why waste your time going to see
him?

Cos of Kevin's ex-fiancee. She never
gave up on him. Ever.

Annie who was pregnant at the time
of the murder

and married someone else the second
Kevin was locked up?

Annie who tried to get over 40 law
firms to take a look at Kevin's case.

She married because the child needed
a father.

Who wasn't a paedophile. Sexual
activity was never conclusively -

Oh, come on -
Ladies, please.

Emma, why do you want to continue
with this?

Because the confession is
questionable...

The IO might have questioned him
outside PACE, which is a breach -

A technicality. The forensics -

Were done by Galion labs, which is
owned by a bunch of ex-coppers,

who have been investigated at least
six times and have had four
convictions overturned.

Dad, taking on Kevin Russell will
bring us nothing but ridicule.

It certainly won't make us any
money. You're right, Maggie.

This firm has always preferred
ridicule to money.

I don't know how we're still in
business.

Well, we won't be much longer.

Just a few more days.

PACE tapes? You're really gonna put
yourself through that torture?

Kevin said Greenwood put words into
his mouth.

"Where I did it, how I did it and
why."

Olivia Greenwood was the
investigating officer? You know
she's in counter-terrorism now?

SO-15?
Graduate entry.

This would've been one of her first
cases.

There you go: inexperienced copper,
desperate to make her mark.

She won't like you messing with it.

You're probably already on her
dartboard with your new house guest,
what's her name, Miriam.

What's her husband up to now?

Dr Attar is in a refugee camp on the
Syrian border,

and, yes, SO-15 have an arrest
warrant out on him.

(BEEPING)

Sorry.
It's Ruby.

She's in the middle of London. Why's
she gone dark?

Oh, her. What's her last location?

Ealing, somewhere.

Father's in hospital there.
Pacemakers, etc. Don't sweat it.

Who is she?

Why hasn't she got a phone with GPS
like a normal person?

Because she's slippery.

I was in East Anglia today and I went
past the place where...

..where my unravelling started.

That's hard to remember.

Like it never happened.

But it did, didn't it?

(LABOURED BREATHING)

(DOOR OPENS)
Emma?

He actually ate something today,
which is good.

How's work?

Defending any more sex offenders or
mad mullahs?

We all have a right to a lawyer, Mum.

Yes, but why does it always have to
be you?

I'm worried about you, Em.

You're getting on. No husband, no
family...

(GROANS)

Emma...

I'm so sorry.

(MUMBLES)

I'm sorry.

(CAR ENGINE STARTS)

(TYRES SQUEAL)

Hamid. Thanks for meeting me.

Have you got your phone?

No, I left it in my car.

Good. I don't want the spooks using
it as a microphone.

When it comes to Syria, there's no
such thing as client/lawyer
confidentiality.

Oh, I understand, believe me.

Ruby back on yet?

Been a while. Tell 15. They might
want to do a bump.

(POLICE COMMUNICATION)

(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)

Greenwood.

Your uncle Yusef is not making life
easy for me, or for his wife.

I heard about Miriam. It's good of
you to take her in.

She has family in America but what
chance of getting there now, huh?

That's why he has to come home.

He hired me to stop the police from
harassing him, then he disappears
into Syria?

I mean, what's he thinking?
He's not on holiday, you know.

They're desperate for doctors out
there.

When Aleppo fell, there were less
than 20.

20 for quarter of a million people.

Can you contact him?

It's difficult, but...yeah.

You need to tell him Miriam is alone
and afraid.

You tell him he has to come home and
then we'll go to the police and we'll
sort it out.

OK?

OK.

He's a good man, Emma.

Yeah.

He has to be a good husband, too.

Besides, I'd quite like to keep at
least one of my clients out of jail.

Goodnight.
Be careful.

(SIREN)

(TYRES SCREECH)

Know why we stopped you?

You're doing 40 in a 30 mile-an-hour
zone.

I wasn't.

Since when do detectives do traffic
stops?

You mean instead of catching the
real criminals?

EMMA: I know you don't catch the real
criminals. Why did you stop me?

FEMALE DETECTIVE: The company you
keep.

What? What do you mean, the company I
keep?

What do you mean...?

You mind how you go.

What are your names?

(TYRES SCREECH)

Emma.

Hi, Miriam.
You must be hungry.

I made some food. I can heat it up.
Oh, no. Er, a stiff drink is what I
need.

I know, I'm a lost cause.

Not to me.

Speaking of lost causes, where is
Steve?

In the pub.

(CHUCKLES)

Er, he said for you to join him.

I met Yusef's nephew today, Hamid.

He can get a message to him. I told
him to come home.

I hope he will. I really hope.

You think he won't?

I know how important his work is.

Maybe I should go to him.

Maybe I should take Karim and just
go.

No. That'll get you both into
trouble.

The police are just waiting for you
to make a mistake.

What have I done? I was thrown out
of my flat, I'm forbidden to go to
my husband...

What have I done?

Look, they just suspect anyone who's
got ties with Syria, that's all.

It'll be fine.

Yusef will be back. But until then,
just be careful.

Now, you remember what to say if they
ask?

"I want my lawyer."

"I want my lawyer."

Good.

And teach the baby, too.

This is Detective Inspector Olivia
Greenwood, Bury St Edmunds police
station.

It's February 3rd, 9:11am.

Present in the room with me is Kevin
Russell, and Mr Russell's solicitor,
Raymond Blackwell.

Kevin, as you know, Linda Simms, a
pupil at the school where you work,
is missing.

We have a witness who says she saw
you with Linda

outside the school disco on Saturday
night.

KEVIN: That's not true.
I think it is true.

We're searching your home and your
workshop right now.

But that'll upset Annie. They can't
upset Annie. She's pregnant.

Hiya, love. Working hard?

I'm afraid I woke Miriam.

Oh, no...
No, no, don't worry.

Not the kid, though.

How long are they gonna be camping
on our couch?

Until I can find them another place
to live.

How was the pub?

You were missed.

Love you.

(TAPE REWINDS)

But that'll upset Annie. They can't
upset Annie. She's pregnant.

How upset do you think
Linda's parents are?

Where is she, Kevin? Where is she?

I don't know.
A witness saw you with her.

Linda's friend saw you.
I don't know.

It's been 48 hours, Kevin. You know
what that means, don't you?

No.

It means we're beginning to lose
hope, so if you know anything, now's
the time to talk...

I don't know anything.
You were the last person to see
Linda alive.

Where is she, Kevin? Please. Help
yourself, before it's too late.

DI Greenwood, Bury St Edmunds police
station, February 7th, 1:05am.

You should have talked to me, Kevin.
You should have told the truth.

What do you mean?
We found Linda.

Her body. Buried 20 yards from your
workshop.

And we've got enough to put you away
basically forever.

Do you want that, Kevin?

Now, Linda...she was knocked out.

She was put into the ground
unconscious.

She woke up in the ground, trying to
breathe.

Those were her last moments on
earth.

She was in your workshop, wasn't
she?

There were strands of her hair,
fibres from her clothes found here,
here...

there, there.

She was in your workshop, wasn't
she, Kevin?

Wasn't she?

Wasn't she?

Yes.

You don't have to tell us what you
did, we already know.

Linda was hit twice.

A blow to her legs, hard enough to
break bones,

and a blow to her head, knocking her
out.

So what did you hit her with?

What did you hit her with?

I didn't.

There's enough here for a jury to
convict you.

I didn't do it.

But the question is, what will they
convict you of?

Cold-blooded murder?

Or of getting out of your depth?

Panicking.

Accidentally killing the person that
you actually had feelings for.

So you had to get rid of the body.

How did you get rid of the body?

I don't know.
You don't know, Kevin?

We all can understand fear and
panic,

but you need to tell us the truth,

you need to tell us what happened.

If you want the jury to feel
sympathy for you, you have to be
honest.

What did you hit her with?

(FAINT TAPPING)

The shovel.

You hit Linda with a shovel?
Yes.

And where did you hit her first?
What part of her body?

(FAINT TAPPING)

Her legs.

You knocked her down, and then?

(TAPPING)

Head.

Her head.

You hit her on the head?

(SOBS) LAWYER: That's enough.

My client needs a break.

Your client needs a fucking lawyer.

(GIRL'S LAUGHTER ECHOES)

(PANTING)

(CELL DOOR CLOSES OUTSIDE,
KEYS JANGLE)

(HORN BLARES)

You knocked her down and
then...?

Head.
(FAINT TAPPING)

Her head.

You hit her on the head? (SOBS)

It's clear from the silences on the
tape.

Greenwood had the crime scene photos
on the table, showing Kevin what to
say.

She's actually pointing to the
answers.

She led him.

She put words into his mouth.

At the very least, I can get the
confession thrown out.

I want to have a look at the
forensics. I checked.

His lawyers don't have them. Only
obliged to keep them six years.

What can we do?

Go to Bury St Edmunds station where
Kevin was originally questioned,

pray to God they kept the files.

OFFICER: You wanna look at what
case?

Er, Linda Simms, February 2003.

February 2003? Not a problem.

This is DS Hammond.

Drop everything and find a case file
from 2003 for a solicitor from
London...

What? You're too busy?

Crimes to solve?

OK.

Sorry. You should have called. Saved
yourself a drive.

Er, I'm not going anywhere until I
see Linda Simms' file.

It's my right.

Put your request in writing, I'll
see what I can do.

The only thing I'll be putting in
writing

is a letter to the Complaints
Commission about your obstructive
attitude.

You're that lawyer, aren't you?

What's wrong, not getting any
headlines recently?

Wanna kick up a stink?

Is there a stink to kick up?

The case number is O21464487.

The files'll be in your storage
facility outside Thetford.

Had a cold case inquiry here six
years ago. The facility was
immaculate.

You're a copper.
Was.

And now you work with her?

Ha. We all make mistakes.

This is a non-smoking room.

Not any more.

What are we looking for exactly?

Don't know. Anything untoward.

Anything...untoward.

Interesting.

Evidence of sexual activity that
night was inconclusive, but she
wasn't a virgin.

I want to go out there tomorrow.

To the school where she was found.

Anyway, time for bed.

Right, which side do you want?

What? Can't I have my own room?

Sure. If you pay for it.

Daddy!

(JET PASSES OVERHEAD)

(JET PASSES OVERHEAD)

(JET PASSES OVERHEAD)

(RUMBLE OF THUNDER)

Fragments of her clothes, fragments
of her hair...

(JET PASSES OVERHEAD)

(RUMBLES OF THUNDER)

There's no conifers.

Not one.

I read the autopsy report last night.

In Linda's hair there was sand, plant
fragments...and pine needles.

Could have been cut down.

There weren't any in the crime scene
photos either.

And the same plant fragments were in
her trachea and her lungs.

How can she inhale something that
isn't here?

Oh, dear. Linda's family.
How the hell did they know?

Oh, Christ...

(RUMBLE OF THUNDER)

Emma Banville?
Yes.

I'm Linda Simms' dad, Charlie.

This is her mum, Beth. Her uncle,
Phil. What are you doing here?

I'm taking a look at the case.

Why would you want to do that?
I've been asked to.

Who by?

I'm sorry, that's confidential.

It's that mad cow Annie Peterson.

Cos every time she gets a lawyer
digging it up, it's like she kills
Lin all over again.

I'm really sorry. We -
Sorry?

You've no idea.

My baby's
in the ground, nothing to breathe...

I wake up screaming.

Why are you doing this to us?

We're asking you nicely.

Right?

Just stay away.

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

If you don't want to live through
this again, why have you invited the
press?

Cos we don't want you here. So why
don't you piss off?

Yeah?

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

(CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

I want to get a copy of the autopsy
report to an independent lab.

Karen Buxton, probably.

You think you have enough?
Yeah, a major forensic anomaly.

Is it worth the grief?
What?

I should back down because of a bunch
of vigilantes?

Their daughter was murdered.

And Kevin Russell's been in prison
for 14 years.

That damn journalist.

I can just see the headlines:
"Banville defends another
paedophile."

Emma, you never read the papers,
never watch TV. Why would you care?

Because...

..because at the moment I do.

But why?

I just don't want that kind of
publicity at the moment.

I'm trying to adopt.

You?
Yeah, me.

I've got a home, an income, a steady
relationship.

Hm, steady-ish.

Why now?

Is it cos your dad's dying?

No.

I don't know.

It's just all this carelessness and
lies.

It's been my life for so long.

Just need something else.

Quick, quick, quick.

Have you done your homework?
Yeah.

Have a good day. Bye.

Have a good day.

I got the bread...and this.

Oh, no.
You put him in the news again.

You're sick, you know that?

I've gotta go to school. I've gotta
live with this. (PHONE RINGS)

Hello.
(MAN SHOUTING ANGRILY)

Leave us alone!

Emma. Steve.

Externals are fine: stability of
employment, income, residence.

The police checks were OK...almost.

You have a criminal conviction,
Steve.

Well, a suspended sentence.

I got done for trespass once.

I'm a photographer for...for the
papers.

Where were you trespassing?

It's a long story, but it's how we
met.

Em was representing the other side.

Tore me apart on the stand.

I just thought she was lovely.

Now, given your age, you won't be
adopting a baby, but a child?

Yes.

Some of these children come from
very troubled backgrounds.

We don't want them to experience
further disruption.

Oh, they wouldn't. Not with us.

What about this sort of disruption?

Imagine your child having to deal
with this.

At school, in the playground?
Well, that would stop.

What, you'd give up being a lawyer?
Well, no.

But there are many types of law.
Don't all involve headlines.

Do-gooders. Bring me out in a rash.

What are you doing with me, then?

Like I said, you're lovely.

(CHUCKLES) That headline's not gonna
help us.

The fella who wrote the article,
Tony Pullings. I know the name.

Know him from years ago, when he was
just a photographer.

Pretty good one.

Used to work for the Cambridge
Times. He was working there when
Linda Simms went missing.

The local police used to use him to
photograph crime scenes and stuff.

That's how he got the jump on most
of Fleet Street.

So the case made him?

Like it made Olivia Greenwood.

Nothing like a dead white schoolgirl
to advance a few careers.

Guard. Guard!

(GRUNTS)

Aagh!
This is from Phil and Charlie Simms.

They say you've got a lawyer.

They say you've been telling lies
about what you did to Linda.

What did you do to her, Kevin?

Tell us the truth now. (WHIMPERING)

Aagh!

Tell us the truth.

I killed her!

That's it. Take care, Kevin.

Kevin said it was an accident, but
it wasn't. It's hardly the first
time.

And there's something else.

Kevin says he wants to stop.

Working with you.

He says he made it all up.

He says he did it, he killed Linda.

What, and you believe him?

He stuck to the same story for 14
years, Annie.

The only reason he'd change is cos
someone's got to him.

He says he wants you to stop.

Because he's frightened.

No, because he did it. He's a
murderer.

He ruined mum's life and my life and
he keeps ruining it.

All right, Jason.
Derek's my dad, not him.

He should never get out. Ever.

I said that's enough.

Are you gonna give up too, Annie?

When you fought for so long?

Just when I'm getting somewhere?

Please tell me you've got something.

Got a few tests to run but basically
done and dusted.

You were right about the plant
matter.

None of the fragments in Linda's
lungs matches the flora of her
burial site.

What plant matter did she ingest?

Conifers. Douglas fir and Sitka
spruce.

Soil samples: the soil, dust, sand,
mainly sand, found in Linda's lungs
and throat

also didn't match the soils of the
burial site.

What do they match?

They were impregnated with kerosene.

High-grade kerosene, also containing
toluene, naphthalene and xylene.

It's jet fuel.

Most likely JP-8, the main fuel of
fighter jets, bombers.

She was buried on an air force base.

She was first buried, buried
alive... And then she was moved.

Why?

There are two bases in Suffolk the
RAF and the Americans use: Lakenheath
and Crawbury.

And Crawbury is less than a mile away
from where Linda was last seen,
Hainwood School.

But what does it mean?

It means if Kevin murdered Linda, he
buried her twice.

First near one of these airfields,

then he dug her up and buried her
again,

20 yards away from where he works.

It doesn't make sense.

Unless he didn't do it.
It's enough.

The Commission will have to re-open
the case.

Aren't you all forgetting something?

Kevin is now saying he did kill
Linda.

Doesn't that make this rather
academic?

I'm telling you I did it. I killed
her, I accept it. You're fired.

I know you didn't do it.

You have to say that.

It's some kinda...kinda lawyer
thing, so you can -

Kevin, I know the review board would
re-examine your case,

and I believe your conviction will be
overturned.

I will get you moved, put in
solitary.

I will kick down the Home Secretary's
door if I have to.

You shouldn't be in here and
shouldn't be getting beaten up when
you're in here.

I know you've been threatened, that
you're scared.

But if you trust me, you will walk
out of this place.

You'll be a free man.

You fought for so long, Kevin. Don't
give up now.

So...am I still your lawyer?

(MURMUR OF CROWD)

MEMBER OF GALLERY: Oh, no.
(OTHERS MURMURING)

All rise.

In the appeal of Kevin Russell
against his conviction for murder,

we have considered the appellant's
arguments and the new evidence
referred to therein.

In light of this, it is our majority
opinion that the conviction of Mr
Russell is unsafe

and we hereby order the conviction
be quashed.

(MURMURING INCREASES)

You did it.

However, having considered the
Crown's response

and the additional evidence
presented by the police,

we agree with their submission that
a full retrial is necessary and is
so ordered.

In the meantime, we order that Mr
Russell be released on unconditional
bail.

All rise.

Miss Banville. I'm Olivia Greenwood.

I know who you are.

So what's this new evidence?

There was one lie of Kevin's that I
could never break.

That he'd had no contact with Linda
Simms before the night she
disappeared.

Why should that be a lie?
Because it was.

Look.

Recognise her?

Linda Simms. Recognise the place?

Outside Kevin Russell's little hut.

Where did you find this? Who took it?

You'll learn soon enough.

Ah, here comes the man himself.

You let a terrorist's wife live in
your home and you set a murderer
free.

You play with fire.

Derek's outside with the car.
Good luck out there, Kevin.

We'll take you straight to the hotel.

(CAMERAS CLICKING) What's your
reaction to the news

there's going to be a retrial?

Convicted killer Kevin Russell

was released after the Court of
Appeal

overturned his conviction

for the murder of schoolgirl Linda
Simms in 2003.

However, in the light of new
evidence,

the police have announced...

(PHONE RINGS)

Heather? It's Alastair.

Are you on a secure line?
Yes.

You've seen what's been happening
over here.

Kevin Russell. Ah, on the table,
behind the pie.

What? What did you say?

Don't worry about Russell. It's
fixed.

How?
I used the photographs.

Are you out of your mind?

The photos show what Russell is.
They'll put him back where he
belongs.

They could also expose other things.

Yes, they could. I appreciate how
embarrassing that would be for you.

Let's be clear here, not just for
me.

But happily it's irrelevant because
we own the man who took them.

You'd better be right about this.
