I said I'd meet Tracy.

Oh. Yes.

Right.

I'm not sure about next week. I

You'll phone me then, will you?

DOOR OPENING

Sorry!

I wanted to get rid of some of this

Have I messed you up?

Are you sure?

Everything OK? Yeah, it's been a

Paperwork, I love it (!)

Right.

I was going to do some washing,

I meant to phone the bloke

Anyway, I did a few things by hand.

There's no need. I'm here.

Everything's ready.

And if you light that thing,

Night. See you in the morning.

See you in the morning.

Which is the most recent?

This one. It's from the school,

This one makes her look nicer, you

She's got really nice hair but...

Right, Mrs Uphill, we'll start

If she does come back here,

We'll see ourselves out, OK?

Morning.

Just having his breakfast, sir.

Have him come up and see me,

Ah! Sergeant Wells. Come in.

Nothing on the girl, I suppose?

It's been 16 hours.

It's 16 hours of darkness, sir.

Is Detective Inspector Frost in the

He hasn't arrived yet.

Does he know there's a briefing?

Either he does or he doesn't.

Yes, he has been informed. It might

Ah, yes.

I'm really sorry.

Yeah. OK. Woke up twice, that's all.

Thanks. I'll give you a call.

Well, I won't keep you long.

We're not short of help,

We've got woodlands,

derelict houses, builders' sites.

All places where a child could hide.

We shall need to be methodical,

..which is why I've put DCI Allen

As he's in charge, I shall shut up

Time's against us, so I'll be brief.

Any time you like.

Be with you in a minute.

No, no trouble at all.

Thank you.

Sorry about that, sir.

I'm DC Clive Barnard. I have

Right. DC Barnard.

That's right, Sergeant.

Supt Mullett's busy at the minute.

I'll tell you when he's free.

Nice suit he's got on.

Very stylish.

(Oh, shit !)

What's Mullett doing here?

There was a briefing

We phoned you about it last night.

As soon as I've had a decent cuppa.

As soon as you come in, he said.

I've been reading your file.

It certainly did me no harm.

If I can help in any way. Lend

They're all here. Thank you, sir.

Good.

I'm looking forward

I've heard good things about him.

There's been a change of plan.

Chief Inspector Allen is in charge

You wouldn't know about it,

He's up to his eyes in it.

As a purely temporary arrangement,

I'm putting you with Detective

He's a very experienced officer.

Not as, um, punctilious

but,

In his own way. Your uncle

He being our...

Do you see much of him, do you?

Sorry about the briefing.

D'you know what's going on ?

George filled me in.

Go and have a word

Here's their report from last night.

And Jack, when you've seen her,

Paperwork! I'm up to here with it!

In... writing!

Your stomach still playing you up?

Take my tip. Avoid fatty foods.

Ta-ta, Jack.

How are things at home?

Not good.

Take some leave.

What would I do, Jim?

I do enough of that as it is.

The truth is... I can't handle it.

As long as I know she's all right.

Washing machine. Washing machine.

CLUNKING STOPS

Hello. Who are you?

DC Barnard. I was told to report to

PHONE RINGING

To, er... to work with him.

Well, you can start by answering

Detective Inspector Frost's office.

Yes, sir. Yes, he is.

Right, sir. Right.

He wants to see you.

Sorry.

A word of advice, son.

One: Never tell Mr Mullett

And two:

Never wear a suit you wouldn't be

KNOCK

Come in!

You wanted to see me,... sir?

You weren't at the briefing.

No. I was unavoidably detained, sir.

Ah. I see.

My car wouldn't start.

I've had another complaint from HQ.

Really? What's it about this time?

You're late again

I was working on those last night.

Get them sent over straightaway.

I would, only I've left them

Have it done this morning.

Well, I thought you'd prefer me to

Don't...! Don't push it too far,

Chief Constable's blue-eyed boy

No, sir.

What's your name, son?

Clive.

Well, you drive, Clive. Go on.

Half past three, you say?

Sorry? You said last night

Yeah, that's usual. But this week

I went everywhere I could think of.

What about her father?

He doesn't even know I had her.

You just have to get on with it.

So, it's not Mrs Uphill. That's

It's just easier, that's all.

Well then, Linda. If we could just

We won't make a mess, I promise.

All right, Linda, love?

Here you are.

You know, I could swear

No.

Come on. We haven't got all day.

Where'd you like me to start?

Don't let me catch you playing

Guv, you can't really believe

I can believe anything. And one day,

There's nothing there.

Bathroom?

Nothing.

In my day it was 'contraceptive'. A

Just a few more questions, love.

You think she's dead, don't you?

You think I killed her!

Sit down, Linda, love.

My God, you do, don't you?!

The truth is, no, I don't.

The thing is, Linda,

Nice people, loving people, with

Sorry.

Why were you late?

I mean, you said you were late

Why didn't she come back here?

You'd have thought she would.

Was that it? Had you had a row?

Someone? What 'someone'?

You mean a friend?

Yes.

No, not a girlfriend.

You had a man here.

What was his name, this man?

I dunno.

How many are there?

Some. Not many.

Regulars?

If you like. He's your Sunday man,

Why you tell her to wait until you

He was late. Usually he's here

so I got plenty of time.

But yesterday his train was late,

His name's Fareham... Farnham...

He's a teacher at Cranford.

I'm not a slag, you know. Whatever

Is there anyone

A relative?

I've remembered. You're on the

Mr Farnham? Sorry to trouble you.

DI Frost, DC Barnard.

Might I see your identification?

Absolutely, sir.

What's it all about?

Just a few questions, sir.

Can't you wait until I get home?

The nature of our enquiries

pissing about with niceties!

All right, sir? Thank you, sir.

You know a Linda Uphill.

No. We understand you have a...

You must be mistaken.

She says that you were with her

In view of what you're saying,

If you come back with us,

All right. Yes, I do know her.

What's happened to her?

Why should anything

Well, women in her...

Women in her position.

Women in her position?

Very nicely put.

It's not her, it's her daughter.

Tracy?

No, but Linda talks about her.

She's very proud of her.

You see, the kid's gone missing.

You left Mrs Uphill at half three?

Yes, usually it's earlier, but...

You didn't see the child at all?

No. Linda keeps her family life

You left the house

No, I...

I had to visit my aunt.

Yeah, all right. Call them off.

OK, Sergeant! Knock it off!

Oh !

It's a perforated ulcer.

So, it's, uh...

I'll look after the PR side.

Now you're in charge, I want you

It's a bloke in a car.

He saw her leave St Mark's

The woman had on a white fur coat.

Anyone been to that club

No, not yet. Try the library, it's

Of course. Tea or coffee?

Coffee would go down a treat.

Use the Bolivian, and the cups,

So you were with Leslie

Yes. Practising,

On second thoughts, I'd prefer tea.

That's all right. Stay here.

You borrowed your mother's coat,

How d'you know?

Why didn't you tell us

Why d'you think? Your mum'd go mad

Well done.

Tracy could be dead,

She's always hanging round me, like

It gets on my nerves.

I had a date with this bloke.

Quite a bit older. That's why

Some of her underclothes as well,

We're walking past the church,

She wants to know where we're going,

He got shirty and started

She's always following me around.

We managed to get rid of her.

I didn't see her any more.

Whereabouts was this?

Now we know, don't we?!

Done that. Done that.

Wash mach? Washing machine.

I sewed her name in.

For school.

It didn't stay on five minutes.

I wish I had something better

Here, I've got your fags.

It might be a good idea if I asked

No.

I've been on my own since I was 15.

All right.

You just...

You just have to believe the best,

Not good, you said.

No. No, it's been bad.

She's been saying something

That's me. Billy. Bill. William.

She always insisted

Something about a holiday.

We were meant to be going to see

I'll make you a cup of tea

Jack,

There you go.

Thanks.

You wouldn't fancy

I don't think your landlady

I don't have a landlady.

'Check Auntie.' What does it mean?

Farnham said he was with his aunt.

Right. You take the car,

Then meet me in the woods.

Did you bring your boots? No.

I can't see us covering it

By then, even if she did just wander

Anyone checked Annie's place out?

She must have been collecting more

Never much of a contender, anyway.

Where to?

Back to the ranch.

Why you ask?

No. You didn't see her.

Why you not stop them come here?

No children. Give me pound!

Give her a pound, son.

She's a fruitcake.

Well, your guess is as good as mine.

Years. 10? 20? Perhaps longer.

You need to show it

I'll let you have my report.

You want the pathologist.

It looks like rain.

Oh, no!

Why do they bother? For God's sake,

If he did end up with the 40,000,

Yes.

Fine, thank you, sir.

Yeah.

No, sir.

Yeah, thanks.

That was the jolly ballistic boys.

No, guv.

The bullet that killed Garwood

was fired from the same gun

They suggest it might be significant.

They were killed by the same person?

What did you give me this for, eh?!

Johnny, what have we got...?

Yes, sir.

Right away, sir.

The other night I sat there.

..trying to feel something.

She was my wife and she was dying,

Things started to go wrong for us

When we found out

..I don't know, she just changed.

We changed.

She suddenly became all house-proud.

Everything had to be clean,

Well, you've only got to take

And my job.

I'm a street copper.

But that wasn't

She wanted me to go for a promotion,

To make something of myself.

She wanted something to be proud of,

All the poor cow got was me.

She came to despise me in the end.

I know she did.

I used to dread going home,...

..to see that look

So I stopped going home.

You know, it was any excuse.

Anyway, I, um...

I met someone else.

When don't you?

I'd made up my mind...

..to leave her.

On the very day that I plucked up

the doctor phoned me at the station.

She'd got cancer.

18 months to live, so they reckoned.

But she'd always had

She thought it was nerves.

Anyway, she wanted to know.

But she went to pieces.

She clung to me for the first time

'You will look after me, Billy.

'You will look after me,

I said

'Course I'll stay

I went out and I got so drunk.

And I was still drunk

about this nutter with a gun.

Before they could stop me,

Do you know what I was thinking?

All I was thinking was,

Well, for this act of 'outstanding

At last I'd done something

And I wasn't even there

She would've liked that.

'You even let me down on that,

'I can't trust you to do anything.'

I've got the medical report

He went missing after the robbery.

Although he broke his leg

it shouldn't

His left leg, same as the skeleton.

We'll know for sure when the

I've got a couple of things to do.

What time was this?

Be about seven.

Tell me about the son.

It's hearsay, but straight out of

Went into the RAF.

Bit of a scandal about a mess bill.

Started up a vintage car business,

Before he knew it, he's got more

So, £40,000

Might have. Trouble is,

and he

Sorry, Jack. Not your day, is it?

No.

Not my day at all.

Wait here till I need you.

The editor said he'd spoken to

who refused to give him an interview

I thought he meant

Now I realise he meant you,

That means you knew Felton's body

But you told me the first you knew

was when you read about it in

You lied, Mr Powell.

You lied because you killed them,...

..didn't you?

Let me speak to your wife.

My wife knows nothing of this!

I'd like to talk to her!

Have you still got the gun, sir?

Yes.

I think that you ought to

What happens now?

I must ask you to come with me.

I've already got one medal.

All right. All right.

It's because the box was empty.

Something like that.

I knew, you see.

My son had so many...

He thought he was so clever.

The scum he knew were cleverer.

In order to get himself

..he misappropriated

It was a lot of money in those days.

He came to me, not for the first

How could I refuse him, my son,

I'd been handling the accounts

There was £250,000 in her account.

Getting the £25,000 was not hard.

It wasn't too honest, either.

I couldn't let him go to prison.

To this day,

How much pain he caused.

So you fiddled the old lady's books.

I had every intention of paying it

But this time I said no.

He begged, but I remained firm.

This time he'd have to find his

He went to London, wrote me a note,

His mother... (SOBS)

She was left completely broken.

And you were left to account

As long as the old lady was alive,

For two years I lived on my nerves.

Repaying what I could,

Then, in quick succession,

Felton, my chief clerk, found out.

He threatened to tell my wife,

And then the news I'd been dreading.

The old lady died.

It was only a matter of time

And then,

I was asked to transfer the money

When I informed Felton

..he saw it as a way

for me to repay the stolen money,

We would arrange for

I'd slip away from the funeral and

When Garwood stopped the car,

When he came round,

Felton would tell of a masked man

I'd return to the funeral,

leaving the empty box

And the money? The 40,000?

It was in the last places

It never left my office.

The police would be

with a sackful of money,

Now, that is clever.

But something went wrong.

Something went wrong.

He's all right!

The windscreen!

The keys! Unlock the bloody case!

I'd put on my dark suit

I'd placed the keys

They were still there.

You stupid, bloody old fool!

Argh! Argh!

Felton!

Felton!

BANG!

There was only one thing

To make it appear that Felton

I took the keys

..to make it appear

On my way home,

When it was completely dark...

I buried him in the woods. It was

Throwing away the keys before

How could I explain it if the body

..and revealed being empty?

I went back with a...

A spade and an axe!

I... severed his arm,...

..but the flesh was swollen!

The chain wouldn't move!

I dug another hole,...

..and when I returned home I

At a pinch I might just understand

..killing Garwood?

And if there was the chance, just

You see, I love my wife very much,

..and she needs me, you see.

She trusts only me. She depends on

If I were to be taken from her...

I didn't want to kill Garwood,

GUNSHOT

Guv?!

Guv, are you all right?

GUNSHOT

POLICE RADIO: 'Mr & Mrs Gerald

Sort of one-sided suicide pact.'

'Is the pathologist having them?'

'No, straight to the morgue.'

'I have to inform the next of kin.'

'There is no next of kin.'

'Jack got a thump on the bonce, so

Ooh!

Are you all right, guv?

Broke the door down, did you?

Could've got your bloody head

He must've been round the twist,

No... he just loved her.

MILK BOTTLES RATTLING

Not today, thank you.

Ooh. Right, a kip.

'Control to DI Frost.

Yes, what is it?

Don't tell me you've found someone

'No, Jack. We've found the girl.'

DOORBELL

She's all right, Linda.

She was just...

Just left outside Casualty.

There's no evidence

Apart from the bang on the head,

I'll see if I can get them

Mr Frost.

You all right, guv?

I seem to spend

Let's get some decent petrol fumes

What's this? The blanket

No, you're covered in cat's hair.

Guv.

Where are they?

What?

Annie...

What happened, Annie?

Children. They come here.

They torment me.

Throw stones, break windows.

Call me witch.

Last Sunday she come.

The girl.

She see me and call me filthy names.

Where do children learn such words?

I find it best to say nothing.

But this one, she keep on and on.

And then she throw stones.

My kitten was outside.

It cry with pain!

And suddenly I am so angry.

And I'm taking up a stone

And she fall.

And...

..when I see what I have done,

..and stop the blood.

And give her medicine for to sleep.

But I know she need doctor,...

..and I take her to hospital.

I know you come.

Oh, no.

I know I must be punished.

If I am not here,

Who look after them?

The irony is that if Tracy's mother

..that body might have

It's the first thing that struck me,

I remember saying to DC Barnard,

as they carted Powell and his wife

If you'll excuse me, sir,

I was sorry to hear about your wife.

If there's anything I can do.

Thank you.

And you'd better get on to

What for, sir? A mother who neglects

while she uses

But they might

That's for them to decide.

She loves that kid.

It's called 'Care and Protection'.

Well, I suppose someone's got to pay

And you will let me have

Take the car,

All right, guv.

Have a lie-in tomorrow.

Guv?
