Original subtitles

I hired them as advisers.

Judith Potts, reporting for duty.

Giles Bishop.

We think he's involved in Iqbal's murder.

You drew up his will, and you were sole beneficiary.

Forensics have matched the fingerprints

after the break-in.

They belong to Liz Curtis.

You think Liz Curtis is the killer?

She's not the killer.

She's the third victim.

Yeah, well done.

Hmm.

Where do you think this one goes?

Yeah.

And this one? Oh...

Hey.

You all right?

I can't do this. Hey.

You can.

Mmm.

Mummy! Ah, hello you! Hi.

- Hey, Mum. - Hi.

Mum, what's for dinner?

Hey. Hey.

How was your day?

Jean Percival says she wants to stand down as churchwarden.

So, pretty tough.

Thank you for asking.

This is a criminal investigation.

And you have no friends on the island, not now.

- Was it your husband? - I don't know.

You're covering for him?

I'll find out everything.

Look at me when I'm talking to you!

You might as well tell me...

Lengthen!

Lengthen!

Sit tall!

Watch the form! Watch the form!

Stay on that!

Good!

Swimmer ahead! Swimmer ahead on left!

Back it down! Back it down!

Easy oars!

Are these all of you?

The perfect alibi.

Dear God, no!

This is a joke, Jason.

We need proper leadership.

And the medallions?

I don't know why those medallions

were left in the victims' mouths.

You found no link to the freemasons?

None.

Then what about the murder weapon?

We think we know where it came from

but its owner was in the U.S. for the first two murders.

And this one? He's in Amsterdam.

What about other suspects?

We've found links between a local solicitor

and Mr. Kassam.

Could they have killed him? On the morning Mr. Kassam died,

Mr. Bishop was in Windsor Hospital,

recovering from a gallbladder operation.

So he's in the clear?

He's in the clear.

This is it.

What you asked for.

The reason I chose you

is because you've got good instincts.

I hired three untrained women as civilian advisers.

And they've been getting results.

You should back them. You should back yourself.

If you or anyone you know has been personally affected

or you have any information about these terrible crimes,

do call us at Mar...

You've got to stop.

You're right.

You should make your own cups of tea.

Becks. Please.

It's too dangerous.

- You okay? - Yeah, I don't know.

Zeta's coming home. Ah!

Yeah, she thinks I'm in danger.

Colin's the same.

We can do this.

Judith!

In here!

Oh. Okay.

Wow, you've really been busy. You think so?

Look at this!

No! You've put it back together?

Oh my... how long did that take?

Oh, you don't want to know.

It's a page from the old

boys and girls magazine for Borlase School.

With sporting results on one side.

But on the other...

It's a list of obituaries.

Why would Giles Bishop need to shred a list of obituaries?

I draw your attention to two names.

Spencer Chapman and Faye Kerr.

It says they died last year.

But, if they died last year,

how did they manage to witness Ezra's will this year?

Giles Bishop forged their signatures

using the names of dead people?

Well, so that they couldn't pop out later on

and say it was a fake.

Oh, this is the proof we've been looking for!

Iqbal must've found out the truth

and that's why Giles killed him.

Unfortunately, Tanika told me that Giles Bishop

was in Windsor Hospital

when Iqbal was murdered.

He's in the clear?! So, if Giles didn't kill Iqbal,

- who did? - And why?

There's something I need your help with.

Bloody hell.

Oh, my God.

What on earth...

Fire hazard.

Jeez, you ever thought of recycling?

So... this is where you got all your old articles from?

- You're a hoarder! - Well, not me!

My great aunt. This is all hers.

But now, thankfully, she kept them.

I've never seen anything like it.

Oh, Suzie, not in there!

So what's all this, then?

Uh, um...

uh, this is me.

And your great aunt is the hoarder?

This is your Greek collection?

I thought you said it was just a story?

Look, uh, this isn't important.

What we need to find out is who Elliot

rowed with when he was at school.

You think your great aunt has that sort of information?

Well, the local papers cover the regattas.

The results and the names of rowers will be listed.

Now the regattas take place in June and July,

so we only have to worry about the papers for those two months.

From the 1980s, when Elliot was still at school.

Come on-- shall we make a start?

Okay?

Hold on!

I think I found it. Oh!

No.

I think I found it.

I guessed there was a reason you kept your past hidden away.

How could you?

You stole from your own dig?

No.

My husband did.

Tell me it wasn't you.

How can you even say that?

I need you to tell me!

They dropped all charges. I lied for you!

It wasn't a lie!

You are my wife.

I would never betray you.

What did he steal?

A rare statue.

Dedicated to Artemis, the goddess of hunting.

We discovered it.

We found it together.

And then he sold it for a fortune to...

...whoever.

And it's not been seen since.

Was he caught?

By the time I knew for sure that it was him

and I'd gone to the police, he'd skipped the country.

Left me.

I...

wasn't able to shake the scandal.

It followed me for the rest of my career.

It was a long time ago. You were young.

Yeah.

That's no excuse.

Sounds to me like you did nothing wrong.

I lied.

And, if I'm being honest, I knew what I was doing.

But I was in love and...

I was stupid.

It wasn't your fault.

You don't understand.

But it was your husband who...

I'd like you to leave.

What?

Both of you.

- Judith, please. - I'm so sorry.

Th, this is on me, I shouldn't have...

Now.

We should go.

"Mr. Dunwoody laughs when I ask him about it.

"'I can't swim,' he confesses.

"'As long as you never make me

get in a boat, I'm happy.'"

Dear God, no!

- Hello? - I think

your husband's involved with these murders.

You know it, and I know it.

- Who is this? - Oh, you know who I am.

The Stanley Spencer painting you told us about,

it was Elliot who broke into Stefan's house

and stole it back, wasn't it?

No!

I don't know.

Daisy...

I once stood by a man I knew was lying.

You don't want to carry that guilt

for the rest of your life.

I think he's got something hidden in the house.

Thank you.

Thanks for your help!

Look, I've got to go. He's about to leave.

What's that?

Elliot's off to Wales. He's going fishing.

Well, when was this decided?

- What? - Daisy, this is a matter

of life and death.

Was the trip planned or last minute?

It's a last minute thing.

"Spur of the moment," he said.

Bye, then!

Foster Perkins, good evening.

Oh, hello, I'd like to speak to Giles Bishop, please.

He's just left for Manchester.

Oh, um... when will he be back?

Tomorrow-- do you want me to leave a message?

No, don't worry.

By tomorrow it will be too late.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

There's going to be a fourth murder.

Me.

Judith, I'm so sorry.

You have to promise you'll stay away from me tonight.

What?

Promise me you won't come to my house

or try to contact me in any way.

Of course.

And tell Suzie the same.

Hi, Becks.

I'm on my way to Heathrow.

I'm worried about Judith.

Yeah, so am I. She threw us out!

She just rang and said we had to stay away from her tonight.

What? Why?

She didn't say.

But she was really weird about it.

I think she's going to do something foolish.

Not now.

Welcome to London...

Mum? Where are you?

Zeta, I'm needed elsewhere.

What?

Look, my friend needs me. Can you get a cab home?

I guess.

All right, I'll, I'll see you later.

Okay, yeah,

thanks.

Sarge, that was the hotline.

Someone's seen a guy on Temple Bridge

outside Marlow throw something in the river.

Apparently, it, it may have looked like a handgun.

Did they get a description? Not in this rain--

but he ran off in the direction of Hurley.

Look, if we move fast...

we might be able to intercept him. Becks?

I'm sorry to interrupt,

but it's Judith. I think there's something wrong.

Why? I've been calling her landline

there's a "not in service" message,

and she's not picking up her mobile.

I think she's in danger.

Sarge, the handgun.

He could get away.

Your caller said

it could be a gun, or it was a gun?

Look, he might get away!

Tanika, I'm really worried.

We need to act.

We're going to Mrs. Potts's house.

Jason, Alice-- you're with me.

Yes, boss. What are you doing?

We've got a killer to catch! I know!

Stay here. Man the phones.

You're backup.

Ow.

Which service do you require?

Which service do you require?

Hello?

Are you still there?

Hello, Danny.

There.

I can't get through to her.

This is bad.

Come on. Come on. Quick!

We're nearly there.

Oh, God.

Oh no! What the hell?

Come on! How bad is it?

What are we going to do? We need to get it moved!

How? I don't know.

This is the only way and we're still a mile away.

We need to get a tow truck down here.

Okay.

See if you can get hold of anyone.

What can we do?

The church is nearby. What?

The church!

No, Becks!

Becks!

I can't imagine how hard

life must have been for you.

Sharing a passion with your wife--

rowing.

But Liz was a gold medal winner,

one of the best in the world.

That can't have been easy for you.

And then the Rowing Centre--

despite terrible floods,

she still wouldn't sell up.

Even though, as my good friend Suzie reminded me,

riverside properties are worth a fortune.

You don't know the first thing about my life.

It must have been so frustrating--

Liz not understanding

that you were sitting on a gold mine.

Not sharing your vision.

She always thought she was better than me.

But I didn't kill her.

Oh, I know.

Let me tell you what happened.

How she died.

Becks?!

What's going on? What are you doing?

Becks?

There's a tree blocking the road.

We've got to move it.

We need to tow it!

Becks! What are you doing up there?

Becks!

Just tell me what's going on!

Colin-- watch out!

Oh!

First, you had to get hold of a gun.

But you had to get hold of one

without revealing yourself.

Which is why you booked Iqbal's taxi using your wife's phone

and in her name.

Good afternoon.

Hi. How are you?

And then, when Iqbal was dead,

and your wife too,

no one would know

that it was really you behind the whole thing.

That's just a story.

It's what happened.

I was in Nottingham

when Liz died. Ask anyone.

I've got an alibi.

Yes,

I know.

That's right.

I agree.

When your wife was shot,

you were a hundred miles away.

But then, you didn't kill Liz.

You killed Stefan Dunwoody.

Colin,

we need to get this rope to Ferry Lane.

Darling... The police are there.

I can explain everything later.

I need you to help me.

Mrs. Starling,

this is criminal damage.

Mr. Eddingham!

Can I borrow your four-by-four?

Certainly not!

Lesley!

Thanks!

As Storm Isla moves in,

a severe weather warning for torrential rain

has been issued in the Buckinghamshire area.

Marlow Bridge has been closed

and the public have been advised...

No! No brakes!

Whoa!

Luna, you okay?

I was a fool.

I should have worked it out sooner.

Especially as it was there, in black and white,

that Stefan hated rowing.

So how come there was a blue kayak

at his house when he was killed?

A kayak, I might add, that wasn't there afterwards.

Shut up.

How are we going to get across?

Really, it was an oversight from me.

For who has access to kayaks and lives on the river, if not you?

I said shut up!

Ah!

Judith!

Come on. Please, come on. Pick up the phone.

Pick up the phone! Pick up the phone!

Come on.

No!

All right, Luna, there's a footbridge.

We're going to have to make a run for it.

Come on, girl!

Liz was the one that knew Stefan.

She was the one who was acting suspiciously.

You're right.

Attending Stefan's funeral

and hanging around his house.

But Danny, that's not because Liz was the killer.

It's because she was worried you were.

Did she see you return from killing Stefan?

Or maybe she saw you with the Luger.

She didn't see anything,

because there was nothing to see.

We can't take off in this

and Marlow Bridge is down. We're stuck.

Hey, guys!

I've got this. Here.

Oh yes, that's perfect. Becks said you needed it.

Yes!

Okay, everyone, wrap the rope around

the trunk of the tree. Let's go, let's go!

- Quick! - You go round this way!

You've got it.

There's a tow bar on the back!

I did not kill Stefan Dunwoody.

I didn't even know him.

And that's precisely why you killed him.

Because you didn't know him.

You had no motive.

But we both know someone who did.

Elliot Howard.

No, get away!

Mr. Dunwoody?

Mr. Dunwoody?

Stay there.

I'll get help!

You killed Stefan Dunwoody for Elliot Howard.

Elliot killed Iqbal for Giles Bishop.

And Giles Bishop went to the Rowing Centre

and killed your wife for you.

To complete the deadly triangle.

It was all so clever--

each of you killed someone they didn't know

so that the person who benefitted

would have the perfect alibi.

Elliot was in choir practice when Stefan was killed.

Giles was in hospital when Iqbal was killed.

And you were in Nottingham when Liz was killed.

...then dig through the water.

Josh, show us a stroke!

There you go.

As Elliot said to me the first time I met him...

How am I doing?

There it is.

We're only halfway!

All right-- come on, Luna.

Let's go, let's go!

Keep coming.

Right, we're all set! Okay, we're good to go!

Becks.

Oh, Mrs. Eddingham. Reverend.

If this car gets so much

as a scratch on it. It won't!

I'm sending you the bill. Absolutely.

I need you to step back.

I really don't know what I'm doing.

Right, we've got to get moving!

Slow and easy!

All right!

Keep going!

Careful!

Keep going!

It's moving! That's it, that's it.

Come on, come on. Come on.

I don't know any of those people.

Well, there's some truth in that.

You hadn't seen each other for decades,

but you were all at the same school together.

Sir William Borlase.

And you were top rowers--

you, Elliot Howard, and Giles Bishop.

Bishop is too short to be a rower.

I agree.

Giles is too short to be a rower,

but he wasn't a rower, was he?

He was your cox.

As this race report

from 1987 proves.

You rowed together at Marlow Town Regatta

and were reunited there, coincidentally,

35 years later.

Elliot was always so full of himself. Hmm.

Go on.

We lost touch over the years.

Until the regatta.

That way. Stop it!

Out you go. God!

Where Antonia saw Elliot

haranguing poor Stefan Dunwoody.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Elliot? Danny!

It's been years.

He wasn't in a good state.

It's good to see you.

Pretty angry with some art dealer.

Why don't we go... I'm so angry right now!

I'm so angry! Come on.

Come on, let's go. Let's go.

Then we saw Giles,

it was the old crew back together again.

We had to celebrate.

But Giles had troubles.

I am going to...

He was going to prison,

all because he'd made one mistake.

He hadn't known that Iqbal Kassam

had also gone to Borlase.

That's right.

Meaning he got the same school magazine as Giles.

You are a liar.

It's how Giles ended up

with a torn page from the Borlase magazine.

It was Iqbal who gave it to him,

demanding to know how Ezra's will could be legal

since two dead people had witnessed it.

My friend, there's no way...

He said he needed to make the problem go away.

Before Iqbal went to the police.

Damn!

And then, I imagine you explained that your wife

was standing between you and a huge payout.

Whose idea was the medallions?

And the German Luger?

Elliot's.

He said we each had to use the same gun.

And leave a calling card behind at the murder.

To make it look like it was just one person.

It so nearly worked.

Oh, it worked.

Only one person

worked it out.

You.

But you've been stupid enough to tell me.

Oh, you think you're so clever.

I am.

No.

No! No you don't!

Not clever enough.

Luna!

Go on, girl!

Get it off!

Go on.

Good girl.

Police! Oh, thank God.

Police! Police!

- Luna! - Judith! Judith!

- Come on! - Come on, get up.

I've got the gun.

- You're making a mistake. - Oh, yeah?

I'm sure you've got a lot to say.

I've got a watertight alibi.

Get out the car! Put your hands on the front of it.

Walk to the front of the car now.

Gentlemen...

Put your hands above it.

I haven't done anything wrong.

What's, what's-- ow.

What's going on?

This is absurd.

W-w-why are you arresting me? Steady.

Can you step out of the car please, sir?

Here it is, sir!

It's a Stanley Spencer.

Thank you, Mrs. Howard.

Hey, team!

We've just arrested Elliot Howard and Giles Bishop.

Great!

We've also searched Mr. Howard's property

and recovered the Stanley Spencer painting.

Thank you.

You couldn't have just started a book club, could you?

Not on your nelly.

Seriously, I don't know how you did it.

Thank you. What was that anonymous tip-off

that you got at the police station?

I assume that was Elliot or Giles

trying to send us off on a wild good chase

so we wouldn't be around to intercept Danny.

Are you sure you're going to be okay?

I will.

We will.

Thank you for trusting us.

Didn't doubt you for a second.

You too, Luna.

Hey!

Dinner's in the oven, yeah?

Thanks.

Oh, and just so you know

your dad's on the warpath.

Okay. Be down in a minute.

I think he thought you were going over to his

to cook him dinner?

You know, I did try and explain you're at work, but...

Well, you know what he's like.

How was your day?

Good.

On the Marlow murders,

three arrested today

for the murders of Stefan Dunwoody, Iqbal Kassam

and Elizabeth Curtis.

All are believed to be linked.

Ta-da! Oh!

Oh, wow!

You're lucky I came here when I did.

You need looking after.

These murders have really rocked

the picturesque town of Marlow.

The residents will be breathing a huge sigh of relief now the...

Judith.

Oh Mum, I'm going to the pub tonight.

Okay.

With a load of boys.

You know what you're doing.

Now the police have confirmed

they've arrested all the suspects...

Judith.

I'll be there in ten minutes.

Colin? Hmm?

I'll be out until this afternoon.

Oh. Be as long as you like.

I can always do tea.

Don't worry.

I'll be back in time to do tea.

Yeah.

Oh, bliss.

This is the life!

Isn't it?

Mind you heads! Oh, branch.

Oh, branch coming.

Mind, Judith!

Oops! Uh-oh.

Let's try this again. Naughty tree.

I was going to bring sausage rolls

but a certain furry friend scoffed the lot!

Ho! Plenty of cucumber sandwiches though.

Mmm. There we go.

What fun.

Judith, this is lovely.

Ooh.

We so deserve this.

You know, I'll never look at your travel sweets

in the same way again. Me neither.

Thank you.

Not forgetting the only person I know

who can run a mile in four minutes flat.

It was so much further than a mile!

Thank you.

I'm sorry I didn't include you more.

I didn't want to get you into danger.

So you knew Danny was going to try and kill you?

It's the way they operated.

Making sure that two had alibis

so the third could pull the trigger.

As soon as I knew

that Elliot and Giles were out of town...

You laid your life on the line.

I saw no other way.

What is it?

No, go on.

Maybe you've made amends for what you

did or didn't do in the past.

Damn right.

I reckon you've settled that score for good.

Did you ever see your husband again?

No.

I suggest we look

to the future.

Champagne, anyone?

Ooh!

Yes, please!

Just a little bit.

I've said it before

and I'll say it again...

This is the life!

To us!
