2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,936
'You're listening to
Coast Radio South. It's Friday.

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:08,136
'It's just coming up to five o'clock,

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,669
'and the weekend starts,
quite literally, here.

5
00:00:10,693 --> 00:00:14,104
'It's nearly home time.
We've got news on the hour.

6
00:00:14,128 --> 00:00:17,960
'But before that, we've got a little
traffic and weather check...'

7
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,016
It's going to take the whole weekend
to get her free of the silt.

8
00:03:37,726 --> 00:03:38,703
Her?

9
00:03:38,728 --> 00:03:40,703
The male skeleton
is generally more robust,

10
00:03:40,728 --> 00:03:43,923
and the proportions are different.
The hyoid is broken.

11
00:03:43,948 --> 00:03:47,404
The small, U-shaped bone
that keeps the tongue in place.

12
00:03:47,429 --> 00:03:49,405
- Strangulation?
- Textbook.

13
00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:52,673
Presence of the wisdom teeth
tells us she is over 17.

14
00:03:52,698 --> 00:03:55,634
I'd put her between 25 to 40.

15
00:03:56,103 --> 00:03:58,634
Any idea how long she's been here?

16
00:03:58,658 --> 00:04:00,634
There's evidence of some dental work.

17
00:04:00,658 --> 00:04:01,635
White fillings,

18
00:04:01,659 --> 00:04:05,258
which tend to have been more
common over the past three decades.

19
00:04:05,282 --> 00:04:09,223
But there's a cap on one maxillary
incisor which looks more recent.

20
00:04:09,658 --> 00:04:11,858
Last ten years, maybe?

21
00:04:15,330 --> 00:04:19,010
Looks like someone's career's
going down the sewer, eh?

22
00:04:23,103 --> 00:04:26,065
It's a storm drain for the
old Brighton to Kemp Town railway.

23
00:04:26,089 --> 00:04:28,125
It was built to stop
water flooding the line.

24
00:04:28,149 --> 00:04:30,634
- And nobody knew it was here?
- Well, that's planning for you.

25
00:04:30,658 --> 00:04:32,023
People forget.

26
00:04:32,048 --> 00:04:34,223
Now, the line links
the city's sewerage system,

27
00:04:34,248 --> 00:04:37,224
which discharges
a mile or so out to sea.

28
00:04:37,471 --> 00:04:39,447
So if the pathologist
is saying foul play,

29
00:04:39,472 --> 00:04:42,448
then, presumably, the killer
put the body down the drain

30
00:04:42,473 --> 00:04:44,075
expecting the same thing to happen.

31
00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:46,514
Yeah, but they hadn't considered it
not flooding the drain.

32
00:04:48,297 --> 00:04:49,463
Oh, Christ.

33
00:04:49,525 --> 00:04:51,524
Good luck, boss. Here comes Pepe.

34
00:04:54,658 --> 00:04:55,834
Evening, Roy.

35
00:04:55,858 --> 00:04:58,634
Cassian.
I wasn't expecting you till Monday.

36
00:04:58,658 --> 00:05:00,634
Allie Vosper suggested I drop by.

37
00:05:01,063 --> 00:05:03,634
Well, it's very kind of her, but, erm...

38
00:05:03,658 --> 00:05:05,983
it'll be slow work until Monday.

39
00:05:06,338 --> 00:05:08,634
You got all the CSIs
and search officers you need?

40
00:05:08,658 --> 00:05:11,263
- I have. Thank you.
- No Glenn Branson?

41
00:05:11,370 --> 00:05:14,186
Usually Me And My Shadow
with you two, isn't it?

42
00:05:14,364 --> 00:05:17,806
Or is he still on light duties
after getting shot?

43
00:05:18,525 --> 00:05:19,701
Wedding anniversary.

44
00:05:20,343 --> 00:05:22,634
I'm sorry you've had a wasted journey.

45
00:05:22,658 --> 00:05:25,154
If you'd given me a call,
I could've saved you the bother.

46
00:05:25,178 --> 00:05:26,994
Never a bother, Roy.

47
00:05:27,018 --> 00:05:28,858
Pleasure. Always.

48
00:05:30,191 --> 00:05:31,191
Sergeant.

49
00:05:36,270 --> 00:05:38,246
You know what Hughie Green
would've said?

50
00:05:38,658 --> 00:05:40,634
"If you can't spell Cassian Pewe,

51
00:05:40,658 --> 00:05:43,658
"just write down 'pompous shitehawk'
and we'll know who you mean."

52
00:05:44,858 --> 00:05:46,658
Unbelievable.

53
00:06:23,658 --> 00:06:24,834
Help!

54
00:06:25,411 --> 00:06:27,211
Hello?

55
00:06:27,658 --> 00:06:30,634
I'm stuck! I'm in the lift!

56
00:06:30,658 --> 00:06:32,634
Help!

57
00:06:32,658 --> 00:06:35,674
Somebody help!

58
00:06:36,504 --> 00:06:38,463
Am I the love of your life?

59
00:06:39,698 --> 00:06:41,063
Mm-hm.

60
00:06:41,658 --> 00:06:43,658
Am I, Grace?

61
00:06:45,658 --> 00:06:46,834
You are.

62
00:06:46,858 --> 00:06:49,474
You're not lying to me, are you?

63
00:06:49,498 --> 00:06:51,634
You're so needy.

64
00:06:51,658 --> 00:06:53,143
You're so boring!

65
00:06:53,344 --> 00:06:55,160
We're on a romantic weekend away,

66
00:06:55,185 --> 00:06:57,321
and you've got your nose
stuck in whatever it is.

67
00:06:57,524 --> 00:06:59,500
Annual crime report. It's important.

68
00:06:59,658 --> 00:07:02,154
Oh, and I'm what?

69
00:07:02,178 --> 00:07:04,634
Work, work, work. Read, read, read.

70
00:07:04,658 --> 00:07:07,634
Just so boring, boring, boring!

71
00:07:07,658 --> 00:07:10,634
- What's up?
- Pay attention to me.

72
00:07:10,658 --> 00:07:12,634
Come on, Dobbin. Giddy-up!

73
00:07:12,658 --> 00:07:15,154
- Once around the Great Hall.
- Mm.

74
00:07:15,178 --> 00:07:18,474
"My Sex Pest Hell, by Top Brighton Cop."

75
00:07:41,658 --> 00:07:43,658
- Oh...
- Hey... Hey...

76
00:07:45,658 --> 00:07:47,263
It's OK.

77
00:07:47,884 --> 00:07:49,383
You're OK.

78
00:07:52,658 --> 00:07:54,658
Yeah, sorry. Er...

79
00:07:59,250 --> 00:08:00,770
Do you want to talk about it?

80
00:08:04,444 --> 00:08:06,804
It's not...
It's not good to keep it inside.

81
00:08:10,010 --> 00:08:12,463
If not to me, then someone.

82
00:08:13,504 --> 00:08:14,863
Glenn, whoever.

83
00:08:19,284 --> 00:08:20,284
Is it work?

84
00:08:22,377 --> 00:08:23,377
Yeah.

85
00:08:25,658 --> 00:08:27,263
I-I'm OK.

86
00:08:28,003 --> 00:08:30,523
- Sorry I woke you.
- Mm.

87
00:08:52,104 --> 00:08:54,363
DNA samples from the hair
and a bone sample from the thigh

88
00:08:54,388 --> 00:08:56,364
have been sent for analysis.

89
00:08:56,658 --> 00:08:59,634
I'm no orthodontist, but four fillings.

90
00:08:59,658 --> 00:09:02,634
Three white composite, one gold inlay.

91
00:09:02,658 --> 00:09:05,634
An all-porcelain bridge
from upper right six to four.

92
00:09:05,658 --> 00:09:07,658
But this is interesting...

93
00:09:08,863 --> 00:09:12,634
I might be wrong, but I think
lab analysis will tell us

94
00:09:12,658 --> 00:09:14,303
that this is carpet fibre.

95
00:09:14,424 --> 00:09:18,424
Too hard to be from a pullover
or a skirt or a cushion cover.

96
00:09:19,491 --> 00:09:20,618
Where did you find it?

97
00:09:20,659 --> 00:09:23,383
Artificial nail. From a nail bar.

98
00:09:23,677 --> 00:09:25,453
A plastic compound, glued on.

99
00:09:26,023 --> 00:09:28,994
Somehow, the nails
didn't get to be washed away

100
00:09:29,018 --> 00:09:31,317
while the skin beneath rotted.

101
00:09:31,341 --> 00:09:33,634
The fibre was beneath the middle finger.

102
00:09:33,658 --> 00:09:36,634
It could be that her assailant
dragged her along a carpet

103
00:09:36,658 --> 00:09:38,634
and she dug her nails in.

104
00:09:43,658 --> 00:09:46,423
Bit of luck
that it didn't get washed away.

105
00:09:51,017 --> 00:09:53,634
So, what did I miss?
Anything from the site to go by?

106
00:09:53,658 --> 00:09:56,474
Search is continuing,
but nothing as yet.

107
00:09:56,498 --> 00:09:57,674
I wouldn't get your hopes up.

108
00:09:57,698 --> 00:10:00,634
Whatever went in there with her,
if there was anything at all,

109
00:10:00,658 --> 00:10:02,523
has long since washed away.

110
00:10:03,038 --> 00:10:04,674
Hey, your old mate Cassian Pewe

111
00:10:04,698 --> 00:10:07,338
gets his boots under the desk today,
doesn't he?

112
00:10:10,166 --> 00:10:11,658
That's what's up, isn't it?

113
00:10:13,063 --> 00:10:14,634
You're not right.

114
00:10:14,658 --> 00:10:16,634
Sandy had a tooth capped.

115
00:10:16,658 --> 00:10:17,635
Roy...

116
00:10:17,659 --> 00:10:19,634
Same height. Same build.

117
00:10:19,658 --> 00:10:21,154
- It's not her.
- Same hair colour.

118
00:10:21,178 --> 00:10:22,415
- Come on...
- Same age.

119
00:10:22,439 --> 00:10:24,634
Roy, no. Stop, OK?

120
00:10:24,658 --> 00:10:28,390
You can't keep imagining that
every Jane Doe is gonna be Sandy.

121
00:10:28,414 --> 00:10:29,635
You can't do it.

122
00:10:29,659 --> 00:10:32,634
You really think that's not how
it is every time I get called out?

123
00:10:32,658 --> 00:10:35,040
Every time the phone rings
in the middle of the night?

124
00:10:35,064 --> 00:10:37,022
It's the last thing I think of
when I go to sleep,

125
00:10:37,046 --> 00:10:38,497
and the first thing
I think of in the morning.

126
00:10:38,521 --> 00:10:40,634
- Is today the day?
- Roy...

127
00:10:40,658 --> 00:10:43,343
- Is today the day that I find Sandy?
- Roy.

128
00:10:45,858 --> 00:10:47,658
Look, I'll, er...

129
00:10:57,084 --> 00:10:58,244
Erm...

130
00:11:00,250 --> 00:11:03,263
Darren's had to... cry off his shift.

131
00:11:03,658 --> 00:11:04,943
Right.

132
00:11:06,264 --> 00:11:07,603
So I'm going to be on call tonight.

133
00:11:07,659 --> 00:11:09,178
Sure.

134
00:11:10,658 --> 00:11:13,018
We should probably talk.

135
00:11:14,858 --> 00:11:16,658
Yeah. Course.

136
00:11:31,658 --> 00:11:33,583
I'm gonna book off for an hour.

137
00:11:34,304 --> 00:11:35,635
I'll see you back on the shop floor.

138
00:11:35,659 --> 00:11:36,783
Hey.

139
00:11:37,350 --> 00:11:39,863
- You all right?
- Yeah.

140
00:11:41,010 --> 00:11:43,490
Yeah, there's just something
I need to take care of.

141
00:12:05,338 --> 00:12:06,994
Can you hear me down there?

142
00:12:10,658 --> 00:12:13,634
There. You all right, love?
You all right in there?

143
00:12:13,658 --> 00:12:15,634
Don't worry, you're safe, pet.

144
00:12:15,658 --> 00:12:17,634
You've had a weekend of it, haven't you?

145
00:12:18,023 --> 00:12:19,634
Come on.

146
00:12:20,023 --> 00:12:21,658
That's it.

147
00:13:09,943 --> 00:13:11,490
Roy.

148
00:13:12,658 --> 00:13:14,634
I've just been welcoming Cassian
to the team.

149
00:13:14,658 --> 00:13:17,634
Since you'll have your hands full
with this body in the storm drain,

150
00:13:17,658 --> 00:13:19,634
I'd like Cass to start his time here

151
00:13:19,658 --> 00:13:21,658
by looking through your cold case files.

152
00:13:23,324 --> 00:13:24,301
I have...

153
00:13:24,659 --> 00:13:27,634
quite a particular system in place,
Ma'am.

154
00:13:27,658 --> 00:13:31,658
Which you can explain to Detective
Superintendent Pewe, I'm sure.

155
00:13:33,823 --> 00:13:36,314
Thank you, Cassian. That'll be all.

156
00:13:36,338 --> 00:13:37,674
Ma'am.

157
00:13:37,698 --> 00:13:39,263
Roy.

158
00:13:45,170 --> 00:13:47,986
The Met is the biggest and most
innovative police force in the UK.

159
00:13:48,011 --> 00:13:49,992
I think we can learn
something from Cassian.

160
00:13:50,016 --> 00:13:51,331
Such as?

161
00:13:52,558 --> 00:13:54,734
Off the top of my head...

162
00:13:54,858 --> 00:13:57,674
how to run an operation
that doesn't leave Branson shot

163
00:13:57,698 --> 00:14:00,658
and Boutwood with
possible career-ending injuries.

164
00:14:01,990 --> 00:14:04,903
You don't think your methods
leave room for improvement?

165
00:14:06,698 --> 00:14:08,983
I don't want a personality clash.

166
00:14:09,518 --> 00:14:11,518
If you two can't get along...

167
00:14:12,943 --> 00:14:14,658
Ma'am.

168
00:14:17,543 --> 00:14:20,719
Last in, first out, isn't it?
Traditionally.

169
00:14:20,858 --> 00:14:22,634
You know me, Roy.

170
00:14:22,817 --> 00:14:25,017
I was never one for tradition.

171
00:14:55,251 --> 00:14:57,463
- 'Hello?'
- Hi, Mum. It's me.

172
00:14:57,658 --> 00:14:59,634
'Abby?

173
00:14:59,658 --> 00:15:02,634
'Oh, this is a good line.
I can hear you ever so clear.

174
00:15:02,658 --> 00:15:05,634
'Where are you? You still in Spain?'

175
00:15:05,658 --> 00:15:07,634
No, Mum. South of France.

176
00:15:07,658 --> 00:15:09,634
- You're all right?
- 'Oh, yes.'

177
00:15:09,658 --> 00:15:11,634
Seen anyone?

178
00:15:11,658 --> 00:15:13,634
'Me? No!

179
00:15:13,658 --> 00:15:17,154
'No-one's been near nor by.
Which is how I like it.

180
00:15:17,543 --> 00:15:19,634
'You're all right, are you?'

181
00:15:19,658 --> 00:15:23,634
- Yeah, I'm all right.
- 'How's that fella of yours, Harry?'

182
00:15:23,658 --> 00:15:26,063
Horry, Mum. He's fine.

183
00:15:27,183 --> 00:15:28,903
Nobody's called you?

184
00:15:29,317 --> 00:15:32,293
'Called me? Who's gonna call me?

185
00:15:32,318 --> 00:15:34,294
'I don't know anybody.

186
00:15:34,319 --> 00:15:37,523
'The only calls I get are about
a car accident I've never had.'

187
00:15:38,144 --> 00:15:41,903
I tell them I can't drive any more.
Doesn't seem to stop 'em.

188
00:15:42,698 --> 00:15:46,634
Nothing outside of that?
Nobody asking about me, or anything?

189
00:15:46,658 --> 00:15:47,834
'About you?'

190
00:15:47,858 --> 00:15:49,063
No.

191
00:15:50,023 --> 00:15:52,658
Where are you?
You still in Spain, are you?

192
00:15:54,184 --> 00:15:55,343
No, Mum.

193
00:15:56,658 --> 00:15:58,634
South of France.

194
00:15:58,658 --> 00:16:00,658
'And how's that fella of yours, Harry?'

195
00:16:04,018 --> 00:16:05,634
Horry.

196
00:16:05,658 --> 00:16:07,658
He's good, Mum. He's good.

197
00:16:10,524 --> 00:16:13,500
Listen, that Clerwell House
I told you about...

198
00:16:13,658 --> 00:16:16,634
They've got a beautiful room with
a view of the river coming free.

199
00:16:16,658 --> 00:16:17,635
I've reserved it.

200
00:16:17,659 --> 00:16:19,634
'Where are you
gonna get the money for that?'

201
00:16:19,658 --> 00:16:22,154
Don't worry about that.
I'm taking care of it.

202
00:16:22,178 --> 00:16:24,658
Once it's all settled,
I'll come over and help you move in.

203
00:16:25,971 --> 00:16:29,427
'All right.
Well, I won't run your phone up.'

204
00:16:29,658 --> 00:16:32,858
My programme's coming on.
Him with the antiques.

205
00:16:34,658 --> 00:16:38,154
OK, Mum. All right,
well, I'll call you soon, OK?

206
00:16:38,178 --> 00:16:40,658
- You take care.
- 'Love you.'

207
00:16:42,337 --> 00:16:43,703
Love you, too.

208
00:16:55,383 --> 00:16:56,634
What you got, Nick?

209
00:16:56,658 --> 00:16:59,634
This is a list of all missing
persons in the county of Sussex

210
00:16:59,658 --> 00:17:02,658
who fall into the estimated
time period of the victim's death.

211
00:17:05,018 --> 00:17:06,634
Everything all right?

212
00:17:06,658 --> 00:17:08,634
Yeah. It's just...

213
00:17:08,924 --> 00:17:10,924
the list includes your wife.

214
00:17:13,658 --> 00:17:15,303
And so it should.

215
00:17:15,464 --> 00:17:18,440
OK, where are we with the sewer
and the storm drain?

216
00:17:18,465 --> 00:17:20,281
There's a few entry points.

217
00:17:20,306 --> 00:17:22,442
The council sewer team
are drawing us up a schematic.

218
00:17:22,467 --> 00:17:25,443
The outlet goes far enough
out to sea to ensure all sewage

219
00:17:25,468 --> 00:17:28,444
gets transported offshore by
the current, rather than towards it.

220
00:17:28,504 --> 00:17:30,680
Presumably, that's what
the killer was banking on.

221
00:17:30,858 --> 00:17:34,634
Could be an engineer, then?
Someone who knows the system.

222
00:17:34,658 --> 00:17:36,674
The storm drain for the
Brighton to Kemp Town railway's

223
00:17:36,698 --> 00:17:39,474
not part of the sewerage system,
as such.

224
00:17:39,498 --> 00:17:40,834
Most people wouldn't
even know it's there.

225
00:17:40,858 --> 00:17:43,483
That line's been out of service
for donkey's.

226
00:17:43,508 --> 00:17:46,484
Trainspotters, maybe? Urban explorers?

227
00:17:46,658 --> 00:17:49,994
We'll get a lot further
once we've put a name to her.

228
00:17:57,984 --> 00:17:59,984
_

229
00:18:28,658 --> 00:18:30,634
Miss Jennings? Katherine Jennings?

230
00:18:30,658 --> 00:18:33,634
It's Kevin Spinella,
Brighton Argus. Er...

231
00:18:33,658 --> 00:18:37,634
I wanted to talk to you
about your terrible ordeal.

232
00:18:37,658 --> 00:18:39,863
Stuck in a lift for the weekend?

233
00:18:40,417 --> 00:18:43,753
No, sorry. I really
don't wanna talk about it.

234
00:18:44,350 --> 00:18:45,990
Miss Jennings?

235
00:18:48,498 --> 00:18:49,903
Miss Jennings?

236
00:19:30,124 --> 00:19:34,100
'With regard to the body found
in the storm drain on Friday last,

237
00:19:34,658 --> 00:19:38,154
'although we can't be certain
as to the cause of death...'

238
00:19:38,178 --> 00:19:41,634
whoever murdered her
would probably have had

239
00:19:41,658 --> 00:19:44,994
a good local knowledge
of Brighton and Hove.

240
00:19:45,018 --> 00:19:48,634
We're obviously very keen
to identify the victim.

241
00:19:48,658 --> 00:19:50,634
'At the time of her decease,

242
00:19:50,658 --> 00:19:54,543
'she would have been mid-to-late 30s.

243
00:19:55,104 --> 00:19:58,383
'Height approximately
five foot three inches.

244
00:19:58,658 --> 00:20:02,163
'And her hair colouring was brown.

245
00:20:02,188 --> 00:20:04,523
'Anyone recognising this description...'

246
00:20:04,548 --> 00:20:06,913
as someone they might have known,
locally,

247
00:20:06,938 --> 00:20:10,525
who went missing in the last ten years,

248
00:20:10,550 --> 00:20:16,526
can reach me or a member of my team
here at East Sussex House.

249
00:20:16,551 --> 00:20:17,943
Thank you.

250
00:20:32,163 --> 00:20:33,635
'Express Send Couriers.

251
00:20:33,659 --> 00:20:35,474
'Jonathan speaking. How can I help you?'

252
00:20:35,498 --> 00:20:37,347
I have a package I need delivered.

253
00:20:38,010 --> 00:20:40,634
'Certainly. Let's just start
with a few details.

254
00:20:40,658 --> 00:20:42,703
'What time would you like
your package picked up?'

255
00:20:43,290 --> 00:20:45,266
'Around seven tonight, please.'

256
00:20:45,983 --> 00:20:49,634
I sent her dental profile
to a number of Brighton practices.

257
00:20:49,658 --> 00:20:51,063
Got lucky.

258
00:20:51,088 --> 00:20:54,543
Her name is or rather, was
Joanna Welbeck.

259
00:20:59,658 --> 00:21:01,634
- Single or married?
- Married.

260
00:21:01,658 --> 00:21:02,635
She was an actress.

261
00:21:02,659 --> 00:21:05,634
Don't know the full story yet,
but they split up,

262
00:21:05,658 --> 00:21:09,314
and she went to Los Angeles
to, you know, make her name.

263
00:21:09,338 --> 00:21:11,154
Or so the husband told everyone.

264
00:21:11,178 --> 00:21:13,634
Sounds like we should have a chat
with Mr Welbeck.

265
00:21:13,658 --> 00:21:15,418
That'd be a bit one-sided.

266
00:21:15,443 --> 00:21:17,419
He died in a plane crash
seven years ago.

267
00:21:17,658 --> 00:21:19,834
Light aircraft went down in the Channel

268
00:21:19,858 --> 00:21:22,634
on a private charter flight from Jersey.

269
00:21:22,658 --> 00:21:24,634
Although, given the crowd
he was running with,

270
00:21:24,658 --> 00:21:26,983
there's talk
it might not have been accidental.

271
00:21:34,658 --> 00:21:36,023
Mrs Balkwill?

272
00:21:39,658 --> 00:21:42,634
Detective Superintendent Pewe,
East Sussex CID.

273
00:21:42,658 --> 00:21:45,634
I wonder if I might have a quick
word with you and your husband?

274
00:21:45,931 --> 00:21:47,931
It's about Sandy.

275
00:21:57,304 --> 00:22:00,920
I've been brought in from the Met
to review cold cases in East Sussex.

276
00:22:01,658 --> 00:22:02,674
And...

277
00:22:02,698 --> 00:22:05,264
I don't think
your daughter's disappearance

278
00:22:05,288 --> 00:22:07,658
has been adequately investigated.

279
00:22:09,943 --> 00:22:11,658
In what way?

280
00:22:12,017 --> 00:22:15,103
Well, normally,
when a wife goes missing,

281
00:22:15,658 --> 00:22:19,634
the husband
is instantly the prime suspect.

282
00:22:19,658 --> 00:22:21,634
But it doesn't seem that your son-in-law

283
00:22:21,658 --> 00:22:24,658
was ever formally regarded as such.

284
00:22:26,178 --> 00:22:28,634
Are you saying
that's what you think now?

285
00:22:28,658 --> 00:22:30,634
Not at all.

286
00:22:30,658 --> 00:22:32,634
But I think radical steps
need to be taken

287
00:22:32,658 --> 00:22:35,106
to eliminate him from suspicion, and...

288
00:22:35,130 --> 00:22:36,674
I mean to take them.

289
00:22:37,104 --> 00:22:38,583
For everyone's sake.

290
00:22:42,838 --> 00:22:45,678
Would you say Sandy's
was a happy marriage?

291
00:22:47,477 --> 00:22:50,653
Well, she had to put up with
being on her own a lot.

292
00:22:50,678 --> 00:22:53,454
And being disappointed
at the last minute

293
00:22:53,479 --> 00:22:55,455
when he got called out for work.

294
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,817
I mean, you must have a bit of that too.

295
00:22:58,321 --> 00:23:00,903
Oh, I'm not married, Mrs Balkwill.

296
00:23:03,658 --> 00:23:04,823
We...

297
00:23:05,304 --> 00:23:08,023
don't think that Roy is a suspect.

298
00:23:09,858 --> 00:23:12,834
Y-You mustn't go
jumping to the wrong conclusions.

299
00:23:13,303 --> 00:23:15,634
This is merely about closure.

300
00:23:15,658 --> 00:23:18,634
Enabling you and your husband

301
00:23:18,837 --> 00:23:20,837
to move on with your lives.

302
00:23:22,658 --> 00:23:24,634
And, of course, hopefully...

303
00:23:24,658 --> 00:23:27,658
clearing Roy's name, once and for all.

304
00:23:30,463 --> 00:23:31,663
Thank you.

305
00:23:34,943 --> 00:23:37,634
Now, there was very little
wreckage recovered,

306
00:23:37,658 --> 00:23:39,221
but what there was indicated

307
00:23:39,245 --> 00:23:42,674
that the aircraft was subject
to a sudden catastrophic event.

308
00:23:42,698 --> 00:23:44,634
What do you mean, like...
What, like a bomb?

309
00:23:44,658 --> 00:23:46,143
Yeah. Or a lightning strike.

310
00:23:46,167 --> 00:23:49,634
See, it was a very stormy night.
But there was no mayday sent.

311
00:23:49,658 --> 00:23:51,634
It was just there one minute
and gone the next.

312
00:23:51,658 --> 00:23:56,154
Speculation was that it most likely
exploded and broke up in mid-air.

313
00:23:56,178 --> 00:23:57,526
What about bodies?

314
00:23:57,551 --> 00:24:00,527
Never recovered.
Ronnie Welbeck, nor the pilot.

315
00:24:00,658 --> 00:24:02,634
Now, they found some personal property,

316
00:24:02,658 --> 00:24:03,635
and a shoe of Ronnie's

317
00:24:03,659 --> 00:24:06,430
that indicated he was on the plane
when it went down.

318
00:24:06,455 --> 00:24:09,103
Now, his wife, Lorraine,
identified it all as his.

319
00:24:09,284 --> 00:24:12,423
Lorraine? So he... remarried?

320
00:24:12,658 --> 00:24:14,143
Yeah, looks that way.

321
00:24:14,471 --> 00:24:17,447
All right.
Well, let's try and track her down.

322
00:24:17,658 --> 00:24:21,634
In the meantime, what information
do we have on Joanna Welbeck?

323
00:24:21,658 --> 00:24:24,634
- Any family we can talk to?
- No. Parents are deceased.

324
00:24:24,658 --> 00:24:27,634
- Same as Ronnie Welbeck.
- Yeah, well, Ronnie had previous.

325
00:24:27,658 --> 00:24:29,634
First time on the radar was '97.

326
00:24:30,463 --> 00:24:32,634
He worked for a dodgy
second-hand car dealership,

327
00:24:32,658 --> 00:24:36,145
clocking cars and knocking out
cut-and-shuts with Sean Klinger.

328
00:24:36,169 --> 00:24:38,154
Sean "The Snowman" Klinger, eh?

329
00:24:38,178 --> 00:24:40,634
Brighton and Hove's very own Escobar.

330
00:24:40,658 --> 00:24:42,634
Yeah, well, him and Ronnie
started out working together.

331
00:24:42,658 --> 00:24:44,634
Then they got into a bunch of trouble

332
00:24:44,658 --> 00:24:46,263
over a bunch of clocked cars,

333
00:24:46,304 --> 00:24:48,280
and the business disappeared overnight.

334
00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:50,446
The entire garage burned down,
with all the records.

335
00:24:50,471 --> 00:24:52,471
12 months, suspended.

336
00:25:07,658 --> 00:25:09,658
Come on up. Seventh floor.

337
00:25:41,658 --> 00:25:43,658
Nice to see you, Abb.

338
00:25:49,951 --> 00:25:52,423
Not mad about the new look.

339
00:26:15,377 --> 00:26:19,353
'Just a few questions about the late
Ronnie Welbeck, Mr Klinger.'

340
00:26:19,591 --> 00:26:21,567
You were close, I understand.

341
00:26:21,592 --> 00:26:24,568
- Well, I knew him.
- What about Joanna, his first wife?

342
00:26:24,658 --> 00:26:27,154
Yeah, I knew both of 'em.
Jo and Lorraine.

343
00:26:27,178 --> 00:26:28,703
What was Jo like?

344
00:26:29,124 --> 00:26:33,100
Ex-lap dancer. Nice arse. But...

345
00:26:33,658 --> 00:26:35,834
volatile. That's the word, isn't it?

346
00:26:35,858 --> 00:26:38,634
I find you often get that,
with the highly-sexed sorts.

347
00:26:38,658 --> 00:26:40,303
Dynamite under the duvet,

348
00:26:40,328 --> 00:26:42,663
but an absolute liability
in any kind of decent company.

349
00:26:42,858 --> 00:26:43,994
In what way?

350
00:26:44,018 --> 00:26:46,063
She'd let her mouth
run away with her in drink.

351
00:26:46,324 --> 00:26:49,843
Ronnie'd tell her to tone it down,
next thing it's a screaming match.

352
00:26:50,018 --> 00:26:51,634
Nobody wants that.

353
00:26:51,658 --> 00:26:53,634
Did he ever hit her?

354
00:26:53,658 --> 00:26:55,634
Never saw him give her a proper dig.

355
00:26:55,658 --> 00:26:58,143
Would he have been capable
of killing her, do you think?

356
00:26:58,417 --> 00:27:01,393
We're probably all "capable", aren't we?

357
00:27:01,424 --> 00:27:03,400
But it's sort of academic now, isn't it?

358
00:27:03,811 --> 00:27:05,651
And how's that?

359
00:27:06,658 --> 00:27:09,634
Well, when Jo realised that Ronnie
didn't have the Midas touch,

360
00:27:09,658 --> 00:27:11,634
she left him. Went off to the States.

361
00:27:11,658 --> 00:27:15,634
Human remains found in a storm drain
in the centre of Brighton on Friday

362
00:27:15,658 --> 00:27:18,674
have been identified as Joanna Welbeck.

363
00:27:18,698 --> 00:27:20,634
She'd been there a long time.

364
00:27:20,943 --> 00:27:22,634
I'm shocked.

365
00:27:22,658 --> 00:27:25,634
- And you think Ronnie did it?
- It's an avenue of enquiry.

366
00:27:25,658 --> 00:27:27,634
What about his second wife?

367
00:27:27,658 --> 00:27:29,634
- Lorraine?
- Hmm.

368
00:27:29,658 --> 00:27:32,314
Now, she could have
the top off the milk any morning.

369
00:27:32,338 --> 00:27:35,634
Fantastic tits. Sold timeshares abroad.

370
00:27:35,658 --> 00:27:39,674
But Ron and I had kind of dropped
out of each other's orbit by then.

371
00:27:39,863 --> 00:27:41,634
What do you mean?

372
00:27:41,658 --> 00:27:43,903
Well, people come and they go,
don't they?

373
00:27:43,927 --> 00:27:46,271
Were you in touch with Ronnie
when his plane went down?

374
00:27:46,295 --> 00:27:49,634
No. I sent a wreath
with my sincere condolences,

375
00:27:49,658 --> 00:27:52,154
but when Ronnie died, I hadn't
seen him for a couple of years.

376
00:27:52,178 --> 00:27:55,154
What about the rumour that
it might not have been accidental?

377
00:27:55,178 --> 00:27:57,263
That there might have been
a bomb on board?

378
00:27:57,464 --> 00:27:59,440
Well, in general, I try not to increase

379
00:27:59,465 --> 00:28:03,441
the sum total of nonsense in the
world by repeating baseless rumour.

380
00:28:04,023 --> 00:28:07,634
- What was he doing in Jersey?
- I've really no idea.

381
00:28:07,658 --> 00:28:09,658
Where can we find Lorraine?

382
00:28:10,658 --> 00:28:11,983
Well, you won't.

383
00:28:12,343 --> 00:28:14,479
Unless you've got a boat
and a deep sea diving suit.

384
00:28:14,658 --> 00:28:15,674
She topped herself.

385
00:28:15,698 --> 00:28:18,314
Stepped off the Newhaven to Dieppe
ferry one night.

386
00:28:18,338 --> 00:28:19,634
About a year after Ron died.

387
00:28:19,903 --> 00:28:22,634
Summer 2016? Round then.

388
00:28:22,658 --> 00:28:26,314
Besides yourself,
who were Ronnie's closest mates?

389
00:28:26,338 --> 00:28:29,634
He was pretty tight
with a guy called Chad Skebbs.

390
00:28:29,658 --> 00:28:31,423
But he emigrated to Spain.

391
00:28:32,178 --> 00:28:35,634
Anyway, as I said,
I only had ten minutes, so...

392
00:28:35,943 --> 00:28:37,383
Sorry.

393
00:28:44,658 --> 00:28:48,658
Now, why would you want to courier
old newspapers in a Jiffy bag?

394
00:28:50,264 --> 00:28:52,240
Unless it was to make somebody
keeping an eye on you

395
00:28:52,265 --> 00:28:54,903
think you'd sent
something else altogether.

396
00:28:56,423 --> 00:28:57,994
Enjoy your weekend?

397
00:28:58,018 --> 00:29:01,634
I thought with you safely boxed up,
I'd be able to get into the flat

398
00:29:01,658 --> 00:29:02,635
and give it a proper going over.

399
00:29:02,659 --> 00:29:04,213
But you've got it locked down

400
00:29:04,237 --> 00:29:06,783
tighter than a camel's arse
in a sandstorm.

401
00:29:08,658 --> 00:29:09,903
Still...

402
00:29:10,658 --> 00:29:13,018
gave you a little fright, eh?

403
00:29:17,658 --> 00:29:20,658
Where are they, Abb. Hmm?

404
00:29:21,658 --> 00:29:22,658
Nope.

405
00:29:23,530 --> 00:29:24,823
No.

406
00:29:26,658 --> 00:29:28,634
No.

407
00:29:28,658 --> 00:29:31,658
I'm gonna ask you some questions
and you're gonna answer. Yes?

408
00:29:33,658 --> 00:29:34,658
Yes?

409
00:29:37,384 --> 00:29:39,343
So, are they here?

410
00:29:41,658 --> 00:29:44,223
OK, are they in Brighton?

411
00:29:54,143 --> 00:29:57,658
In a safe-deposit box maybe?

412
00:29:58,390 --> 00:29:59,663
Look what I found.

413
00:30:04,858 --> 00:30:07,103
I wonder if I might have a word
about Roy Grace?

414
00:30:07,177 --> 00:30:08,673
Hmm.

415
00:30:09,178 --> 00:30:10,658
Off the record.

416
00:30:16,658 --> 00:30:21,243
You know, in the last seven years,
the only officer to review

417
00:30:21,267 --> 00:30:25,658
the investigation into
his missing wife is Roy himself.

418
00:30:26,571 --> 00:30:28,547
Now, this is no criticism
of East Sussex and, of course,

419
00:30:28,572 --> 00:30:31,183
it pre-dates your appointment but...

420
00:30:31,658 --> 00:30:33,634
that would never
have happened in the Met.

421
00:30:33,958 --> 00:30:35,503
What are you saying?

422
00:30:37,584 --> 00:30:43,400
Well, erm, her parents feel that
nobody at East Sussex Police

423
00:30:43,425 --> 00:30:45,561
carried out an impartial investigation.

424
00:30:45,658 --> 00:30:47,634
And what do you think?

425
00:30:48,143 --> 00:30:50,634
Well, I just want to make sure
we've done everything possible

426
00:30:50,658 --> 00:30:51,858
to put their minds at rest.

427
00:30:53,658 --> 00:30:54,658
Hmm.

428
00:30:55,658 --> 00:30:57,966
So one wife sets off to America,

429
00:30:57,990 --> 00:31:00,154
ends up in a storm drain in Brighton.

430
00:31:00,178 --> 00:31:02,634
The second jumps off
a cross-Channel ferry.

431
00:31:02,658 --> 00:31:06,154
Oh, well, I guess some people
are just unlucky in love, eh?

432
00:31:06,178 --> 00:31:09,842
According to US authorities,
there's no record of Joanna Welbeck

433
00:31:09,866 --> 00:31:13,155
ever having entered the
United States on any documentation.

434
00:31:13,179 --> 00:31:14,543
No surprises there, then.

435
00:31:14,567 --> 00:31:17,326
So Ronnie kills her,
dumps her in the storm drain,

436
00:31:17,350 --> 00:31:19,634
and then tells everyone she left him
and ran off to Hollywood.

437
00:31:19,903 --> 00:31:22,634
Lorraine Welbeck, second wife,

438
00:31:22,658 --> 00:31:25,314
is still officially recorded
as a MISPER.

439
00:31:25,338 --> 00:31:28,903
We've a sister for a next of kin.
Maureen. Lives in Newdigate.

440
00:31:31,310 --> 00:31:33,483
So Ronnie's death must have come

441
00:31:33,508 --> 00:31:35,792
as a great shock to your sister,
Miss Finton.

442
00:31:36,343 --> 00:31:41,634
Lorraine was in a terrible state.
Depressed. Suicidal.

443
00:31:41,658 --> 00:31:43,634
Well, obviously.

444
00:31:43,658 --> 00:31:47,823
He left her in a right mess,
financially, with his debts.

445
00:31:48,543 --> 00:31:52,519
- When did she meet Ronnie?
- About eight years ago.

446
00:31:52,658 --> 00:31:54,634
He was looking for a place
in the South of France

447
00:31:54,658 --> 00:31:57,777
as an investment,
and that's where they met.

448
00:31:57,801 --> 00:32:00,634
She sold timeshare, is that right?

449
00:32:00,658 --> 00:32:04,314
Well, it was more
just overseas property.

450
00:32:04,338 --> 00:32:08,154
Undeveloped plots of land people
could build on. That sort of thing.

451
00:32:08,178 --> 00:32:09,823
Spain. France.

452
00:32:10,204 --> 00:32:12,743
- Jersey?
- A little bit, I think.

453
00:32:14,658 --> 00:32:17,634
And did they have anywhere abroad,
if Ronnie was looking?

454
00:32:17,658 --> 00:32:20,888
- Not that I ever knew.
- What was Ronnie doing in Jersey?

455
00:32:20,912 --> 00:32:22,990
That last trip, do you know?

456
00:32:23,014 --> 00:32:25,634
He had some business there,
Lorraine said.

457
00:32:25,658 --> 00:32:28,314
- His stamps, maybe.
- Stamps?

458
00:32:28,338 --> 00:32:30,474
What was that, a hobby?

459
00:32:30,890 --> 00:32:33,303
More of a business, really.

460
00:32:33,951 --> 00:32:37,163
One night in the pub he showed me
this stamp out of his wallet

461
00:32:37,188 --> 00:32:40,183
he paid 50 grand for.
All wrapped in tissue.

462
00:32:40,264 --> 00:32:42,240
I said, "Don't put that on a letter,
will you?"

463
00:32:42,903 --> 00:32:45,917
- Was he insured, do you know?
- Oh, I expect so.

464
00:32:47,510 --> 00:32:50,486
Not that Lorraine saw any of it.
His creditors were all over her.

465
00:32:50,863 --> 00:32:56,543
When they cleaned her out, she just
sort of retreated into a shell.

466
00:32:57,577 --> 00:33:00,553
Ended up in a wee rented flat
down Montpelier Road.

467
00:33:00,658 --> 00:33:04,634
To be honest, I think that's what
put her over the edge.

468
00:33:05,003 --> 00:33:06,634
That come-down.

469
00:33:06,658 --> 00:33:09,863
And... losing Ronnie, of course.

470
00:33:10,764 --> 00:33:12,444
So eight years.

471
00:33:13,658 --> 00:33:16,658
Ronnie would still have been
married, when he met your sister.

472
00:33:19,504 --> 00:33:22,023
Lorraine said
he wasn't getting on with her.

473
00:33:22,658 --> 00:33:25,634
His first wife. Joanna, was it?

474
00:33:26,103 --> 00:33:28,634
He thought there might've been
another man.

475
00:33:28,658 --> 00:33:31,223
And then she just walked out on him.

476
00:33:37,210 --> 00:33:39,523
We should talk to
the overseas property firm

477
00:33:39,548 --> 00:33:40,634
that Lorraine worked for.

478
00:33:40,659 --> 00:33:42,994
See if Ronnie Welbeck ever did find
his investment.

479
00:33:43,018 --> 00:33:44,834
What, you reckon
he's got somewhere abroad?

480
00:33:44,858 --> 00:33:46,084
It's possible, isn't it?

481
00:33:46,108 --> 00:33:47,773
If he was trying to keep
his finances hidden.

482
00:33:47,798 --> 00:33:51,179
- You know much about stamps?
- First or second class?

483
00:33:52,121 --> 00:33:53,635
Look, I'll have a ring round.

484
00:33:53,659 --> 00:33:55,943
See if we can find any dealers
that remember him.

485
00:33:56,091 --> 00:33:58,183
We should check out
the life insurance as well.

486
00:33:58,658 --> 00:34:01,178
See how much debt he left her with.

487
00:34:09,658 --> 00:34:12,018
I suppose you think you're very smart.

488
00:34:13,858 --> 00:34:16,038
Lock it all away in a safe-deposit box

489
00:34:16,062 --> 00:34:18,658
that requires iris recognition
to open it.

490
00:34:20,264 --> 00:34:24,180
How about I cut your eye out
and take that with me,

491
00:34:24,205 --> 00:34:25,920
see if it recognises that?

492
00:34:25,944 --> 00:34:28,223
If not,
I'll come back for the other one.

493
00:34:28,350 --> 00:34:30,865
Of course, if that doesn't work,
then we're both stuffed.

494
00:34:30,890 --> 00:34:32,259
You'll be blind,
and I'll be no better off.

495
00:34:32,284 --> 00:34:36,063
But you know that, don't you? So...

496
00:34:41,658 --> 00:34:43,658
What would get you to play ball?

497
00:34:45,658 --> 00:34:47,634
That Clerwell House I told you about.

498
00:34:47,658 --> 00:34:50,634
'It's got a beautiful room with
a view of the river coming free.

499
00:34:50,658 --> 00:34:51,834
'I've reserved it.'

500
00:34:51,858 --> 00:34:53,858
'Where are you
gonna get the money for that?'

501
00:34:53,882 --> 00:34:55,975
'Don't worry about that,
I'm taking care of it.'

502
00:34:55,999 --> 00:34:58,634
"Don't worry about the money, Mum."

503
00:34:58,658 --> 00:35:00,583
That's what I like about you, Abb.

504
00:35:00,884 --> 00:35:02,724
You're all heart.

505
00:35:11,658 --> 00:35:13,658
Talk to me.

506
00:35:26,077 --> 00:35:28,733
I'm sorry. It was a bad weekend.

507
00:35:29,250 --> 00:35:32,546
There were similarities
between the skeleton and...

508
00:35:32,571 --> 00:35:33,743
Sandy.

509
00:35:33,768 --> 00:35:36,203
The dental work. And the age.
And the hair colouring.

510
00:35:36,228 --> 00:35:38,423
And then Nadiuska found
the blue carpet fibres...

511
00:35:40,338 --> 00:35:43,658
- The bedroom rug is...
- Yeah, I know. I've seen it.

512
00:35:45,591 --> 00:35:48,567
Come in? I don't really want
a back and forth on the doorstep

513
00:35:48,592 --> 00:35:49,820
like we're in a Richard Curtis.

514
00:35:54,658 --> 00:35:58,658
I can't imagine what it's like to
lose someone the way you lost Sandy.

515
00:35:59,858 --> 00:36:04,314
But then... you can't imagine
what it's like being with someone

516
00:36:04,338 --> 00:36:06,383
who has lost someone
the way you lost Sandy.

517
00:36:07,183 --> 00:36:09,634
If that's still a thing for you, then...

518
00:36:09,658 --> 00:36:10,943
It isn't.

519
00:36:12,424 --> 00:36:13,623
She's gone.

520
00:36:14,250 --> 00:36:15,746
And she's not coming back.

521
00:36:16,411 --> 00:36:17,891
But if she did?

522
00:36:19,111 --> 00:36:20,631
She's not going to.

523
00:36:22,131 --> 00:36:24,623
There were only ever two possibilities.

524
00:36:25,557 --> 00:36:27,533
She can't come back,

525
00:36:27,558 --> 00:36:29,534
or she won't come back.

526
00:36:29,658 --> 00:36:33,634
And if it's the former,
then me or somebody like me

527
00:36:33,658 --> 00:36:35,994
will get to the bottom of it.

528
00:36:36,018 --> 00:36:39,203
But I accepted a long time ago

529
00:36:39,228 --> 00:36:42,364
that I might never find out
what happened.

530
00:36:42,823 --> 00:36:44,823
And if she won't come back?

531
00:36:46,257 --> 00:36:48,673
Then I'll know that it's me she left

532
00:36:49,063 --> 00:36:51,154
and that no harm's come to her.

533
00:36:51,178 --> 00:36:55,658
And I hope more than anything...
that that's the case.

534
00:36:57,291 --> 00:37:00,523
And that thing that you said to Glenn,

535
00:37:00,548 --> 00:37:02,524
about always thinking the next call-out

536
00:37:02,549 --> 00:37:04,743
will be the one that finds her...

537
00:37:06,323 --> 00:37:08,543
There's not really anything
I can do about that.

538
00:37:08,838 --> 00:37:10,838
Why didn't you say something?

539
00:37:13,550 --> 00:37:15,390
Because I didn't want...

540
00:37:17,658 --> 00:37:20,658
..something that happened in my life...

541
00:37:22,144 --> 00:37:23,383
..to change...

542
00:37:25,658 --> 00:37:27,658
..how we are with each other.

543
00:37:29,658 --> 00:37:34,018
To let it define whatever comes next.

544
00:37:37,698 --> 00:37:39,658
Then you have to be honest.

545
00:37:41,537 --> 00:37:47,537
Nothing that means anything
can ever grow out of secrets.

546
00:38:22,364 --> 00:38:26,583
Try anything clever
and your mum's dead. Got it?

547
00:38:29,004 --> 00:38:30,524
Maybe a little smile.

548
00:38:35,178 --> 00:38:38,254
- 'Southern Deposit Security.'
- Katherine Jennings.

549
00:38:38,278 --> 00:38:40,634
I want to access my safe-deposit box.

550
00:38:40,658 --> 00:38:42,658
'Of course. Come in.'

551
00:39:27,658 --> 00:39:30,178
Far end, on the right.

552
00:39:32,277 --> 00:39:35,773
- Come on, what you doing?
- I feel sick.

553
00:39:35,858 --> 00:39:37,634
I haven't eaten anything in 24 hours.

554
00:39:37,658 --> 00:39:40,178
I just need to catch my breath.

555
00:40:07,658 --> 00:40:09,634
Wait...

556
00:40:09,658 --> 00:40:11,658
Eastbourne, please.

557
00:40:31,858 --> 00:40:33,634
'I can hear you breathing.'

558
00:40:33,903 --> 00:40:36,903
Better make the most of it.

559
00:40:47,230 --> 00:40:50,543
We are now able to put a name
to the human remains

560
00:40:50,577 --> 00:40:55,513
discovered in the New Laines Quarter
of the city on Friday evening.

561
00:40:55,538 --> 00:40:58,514
They are those of Joanna Welbeck.

562
00:40:58,658 --> 00:41:00,634
At the time of her disappearance,

563
00:41:00,658 --> 00:41:04,634
Joanna was married to a Ronnie Welbeck,

564
00:41:04,658 --> 00:41:07,634
who died some seven years ago
in a plane crash.

565
00:41:07,983 --> 00:41:10,143
Is he your prime suspect in this?

566
00:41:10,357 --> 00:41:12,333
My team are pursuing a number

567
00:41:12,358 --> 00:41:14,334
of promising lines of enquiry,

568
00:41:14,359 --> 00:41:19,535
although, I would urge anyone who
knew Joanna to please come forward.

569
00:41:20,063 --> 00:41:21,634
Thank you.

570
00:41:21,658 --> 00:41:25,658
Detective Superintendent,
can I have a quick word?

571
00:41:26,858 --> 00:41:29,634
- Of course, Mr Spinella.
- Er, it's nothing to do with this.

572
00:41:29,658 --> 00:41:31,883
Just something that I thought
I ought to mention.

573
00:41:31,908 --> 00:41:35,884
I got a call from a contact
with the fire brigade, Monday.

574
00:41:35,909 --> 00:41:38,622
They had a shout to Embassy Court
in town for a young woman

575
00:41:38,647 --> 00:41:40,963
- stuck in a lift.
- Slow news week?

576
00:41:41,004 --> 00:41:42,263
Er, she'd been there since Friday night.

577
00:41:42,863 --> 00:41:45,634
Thing is, I felt something wasn't right.

578
00:41:45,658 --> 00:41:48,634
Her building supervisor
reckoned that vandals must have

579
00:41:48,658 --> 00:41:51,634
broken in to the lift motor room and
tampered with the brake mechanism

580
00:41:51,658 --> 00:41:53,634
and the electrics. He found
a couple of syringes in there.

581
00:41:53,658 --> 00:41:55,634
- She was unlucky.
- Sure.

582
00:41:55,658 --> 00:41:58,634
But what he wasn't able to explain
was why the alarm system,

583
00:41:58,658 --> 00:42:01,634
which should have rung through
to his flat, failed to do so.

584
00:42:01,658 --> 00:42:05,183
Or why her front door was fitted
with more locks than Fort Knox.

585
00:42:05,390 --> 00:42:08,366
If I didn't know better, I'd say
she was frightened of something.

586
00:42:08,391 --> 00:42:09,543
Or someone.

587
00:42:39,658 --> 00:42:45,313
Katherine Jennings, Flat 120,
Embassy Court, Kings Road, Brighton.

588
00:42:45,337 --> 00:42:46,635
I know we're up to our ears,

589
00:42:46,659 --> 00:42:48,634
but maybe swing by,
see if everything's OK.

590
00:42:48,658 --> 00:42:49,674
Just to be on the safe side.

591
00:42:49,698 --> 00:42:51,634
I know Spinella's a pain in the arse,

592
00:42:51,658 --> 00:42:53,634
but even a stopped clock and all that.

593
00:42:53,658 --> 00:42:56,634
Could be a domestic issue?
Abusive boyfriend.

594
00:42:56,658 --> 00:42:58,634
Yeah, well, if she's in trouble,
I don't wanna miss it.

595
00:42:58,658 --> 00:43:01,943
Hi. I've got a step-brother
for Joanna Welbeck.

596
00:43:02,291 --> 00:43:04,563
Goes under the stage name
of Mitzi Dufors.

597
00:43:04,658 --> 00:43:07,634
Member of Brighton and Hove's
thriving and vibrant

598
00:43:07,658 --> 00:43:10,474
LGBTQ+ community.

599
00:43:10,498 --> 00:43:11,543
OK.

600
00:43:11,737 --> 00:43:13,503
We've got cocktails for two this afty.

601
00:43:15,658 --> 00:43:18,634
I spoke to the property company
Lorraine Welbeck worked for.

602
00:43:18,658 --> 00:43:21,184
There was a plot of land that Ronnie
was interested in at the time,

603
00:43:21,208 --> 00:43:22,674
not too far from Biarritz.

604
00:43:22,698 --> 00:43:24,126
Did he go through with it?

605
00:43:24,150 --> 00:43:27,634
Er no, no, he didn't, but it was
acquired shortly thereafter

606
00:43:27,658 --> 00:43:30,674
on behalf of an unknown client
from a firm called

607
00:43:30,698 --> 00:43:32,634
Cape Trafalgar Holdings.

608
00:43:32,658 --> 00:43:34,994
The name stuck
with the French office, apparently.

609
00:43:35,263 --> 00:43:37,543
I can see why it might. And?

610
00:43:37,568 --> 00:43:39,087
Well, I've asked the locals
to take a look,

611
00:43:39,112 --> 00:43:41,545
but from the paperwork
I managed to track down,

612
00:43:41,570 --> 00:43:44,546
Cape Trafalgar Holdings
was a sole trader outfit.

613
00:43:44,571 --> 00:43:47,547
Its, er, owner was a David Irvin Nelson.

614
00:43:47,572 --> 00:43:50,228
Registered office
is a PO Box in St Helier.

615
00:43:50,253 --> 00:43:51,960
Any connection with that and what, er,

616
00:43:51,985 --> 00:43:53,750
Ronnie Welbeck was up to in Jersey?

617
00:43:53,775 --> 00:43:56,551
A friend in the NCA says
Ronnie Welbeck was running gear

618
00:43:56,576 --> 00:43:59,552
in and out of the island
on behalf of Sean Klinger.

619
00:43:59,577 --> 00:44:02,119
There's talk Welbeck
was skimming more off the top

620
00:44:02,144 --> 00:44:04,023
than Klinger might have been
prepared to put up with.

621
00:44:04,124 --> 00:44:07,423
So what are we saying,
Klinger brought the plane down?

622
00:44:07,658 --> 00:44:10,263
Well, it's certainly the suspicion.

623
00:44:55,658 --> 00:44:57,783
- Very nice, your Dusty.
- Thanks.

624
00:44:58,124 --> 00:44:59,420
Do you do any others?

625
00:44:59,538 --> 00:45:02,514
When the wind's in the right
direction, I do a mean Ann-Margret,

626
00:45:02,539 --> 00:45:04,715
not that there's much call for her
these days.

627
00:45:04,740 --> 00:45:07,516
No, I meant any more
Dusty Springfield tracks?

628
00:45:07,541 --> 00:45:09,517
- Oh. You're a fan.
- Who isn't?

629
00:45:09,542 --> 00:45:11,518
- Ah, well, Preacher Man, of course.
- Aye.

630
00:45:11,543 --> 00:45:14,383
Dusty In Memphis is an absolute classic.

631
00:45:17,223 --> 00:45:18,960
You didn't come here
to talk about Dusty.

632
00:45:18,985 --> 00:45:20,839
No. No.

633
00:45:20,864 --> 00:45:23,225
You mentioned something about
a photo of Joanna.

634
00:45:25,658 --> 00:45:26,635
I'll want it back.

635
00:45:26,659 --> 00:45:28,658
Yeah, course.

636
00:45:29,658 --> 00:45:32,634
- When was this taken?
- Around the last time I saw her.

637
00:45:32,658 --> 00:45:33,886
London Olympics, maybe?

638
00:45:33,910 --> 00:45:36,634
More recent than anything we've got,
so...

639
00:45:36,658 --> 00:45:39,159
Um, you're her step-brother,
then, is it?

640
00:45:39,183 --> 00:45:40,443
Half-brother.

641
00:45:40,467 --> 00:45:43,063
Our father left my mum
to take up with Joanna's mother.

642
00:45:43,088 --> 00:45:46,403
And the old man died when
she was ten, so I kept an eye.

643
00:45:46,658 --> 00:45:49,183
Got the odd phone call,
maybe at Christmas,

644
00:45:49,504 --> 00:45:51,680
but she had her life and I had mine.

645
00:45:51,858 --> 00:45:54,303
Next thing I heard is she was
getting married to Ronnie.

646
00:45:54,497 --> 00:45:56,603
- Did you ever meet him?
- Once or twice.

647
00:45:56,658 --> 00:45:59,003
It was money this, money that.

648
00:45:59,028 --> 00:46:02,164
I just thought he was dodgy.
Well, they all were.

649
00:46:02,189 --> 00:46:04,303
- Who's all?
- His mates.

650
00:46:04,658 --> 00:46:07,154
Villains. But she was happy enough.

651
00:46:07,178 --> 00:46:08,863
To begin with, at least.

652
00:46:09,310 --> 00:46:11,286
And then what, it all went off?

653
00:46:11,311 --> 00:46:13,287
I think she was after an out
for a while.

654
00:46:13,550 --> 00:46:15,526
And there was this fella
sniffing around.

655
00:46:15,658 --> 00:46:17,783
- What fella?
- Pal of Ronnie's.

656
00:46:17,808 --> 00:46:21,808
I can't remember his name.
Chas, was it? Chet, maybe?

657
00:46:23,083 --> 00:46:24,583
Right, was she having an affair?

658
00:46:24,743 --> 00:46:26,797
I did wonder if it was him
she'd gone off with.

659
00:46:26,858 --> 00:46:28,396
You see, when her mother died,

660
00:46:28,420 --> 00:46:29,994
she left her this little place
in Brentwood.

661
00:46:30,018 --> 00:46:32,863
- When was that?
- About six months before she went.

662
00:46:33,317 --> 00:46:37,293
I heard on the grapevine via Ronnie
that she'd gone to LA.

663
00:46:37,318 --> 00:46:39,563
So I thought she must've
used the money from the house

664
00:46:39,658 --> 00:46:41,143
to fund going to America.

665
00:46:41,168 --> 00:46:43,383
And you didn't hear
anything from her after that?

666
00:46:43,491 --> 00:46:47,303
I didn't really expect to. Not
if she'd gone off with a new fella.

667
00:46:49,964 --> 00:46:52,619
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
So it's mixed roses. Red and white.

668
00:46:52,644 --> 00:46:55,644
And that's delivered to Ari Branson
in the Radiology Department.

669
00:46:57,098 --> 00:46:58,663
Yeah. No, this afternoon's great.
Cheers.

670
00:46:59,018 --> 00:47:01,658
Thanks a bunch. Thank you. Bye-bye. Bye.

671
00:47:04,658 --> 00:47:06,634
Bit early to be making amends, isn't it?

672
00:47:06,658 --> 00:47:09,674
Haven't you just come back
from a romantic weekend away?

673
00:47:09,958 --> 00:47:12,918
Don't tell me you've
blotted your copybook already.

674
00:47:14,024 --> 00:47:16,184
You know I said it went fine?

675
00:47:18,511 --> 00:47:21,343
- It didn't go fine, did it?
- Nope.

676
00:47:21,368 --> 00:47:22,674
No, it did not go fine.

677
00:47:22,698 --> 00:47:26,338
I mean, you tell me, what is
so wrong with a tandem skydive?

678
00:47:27,331 --> 00:47:31,307
OK, how about,
A, you're scared of heights,

679
00:47:31,658 --> 00:47:33,823
and B, you hate flying.

680
00:47:34,024 --> 00:47:36,320
Apart from that, no, yeah, it's perfect.

681
00:47:36,345 --> 00:47:38,001
That's the thing. I'm not.

682
00:47:38,178 --> 00:47:41,634
I'm not scared of heights. Not any more.

683
00:47:41,658 --> 00:47:44,634
- Since when?
- I don't know. But it's just...

684
00:47:44,658 --> 00:47:45,635
It's just gone.

685
00:47:45,659 --> 00:47:48,891
I don't know how to describe it.
I mean...

686
00:47:48,915 --> 00:47:50,651
What's that thing that people say?

687
00:47:50,675 --> 00:47:53,658
"Feel the fear and do it anyway."

688
00:47:54,317 --> 00:47:57,293
I mean, once, even just being
up high, my legs would just go,

689
00:47:57,318 --> 00:47:59,294
right, just turn to jelly.

690
00:47:59,319 --> 00:48:02,319
Now? Well, now it's like...

691
00:48:03,450 --> 00:48:05,450
It's like I'm, I'm over it.

692
00:48:07,477 --> 00:48:10,453
And that's, that's gotta be
a good thing, though, right?

693
00:48:10,478 --> 00:48:11,478
Maybe.

694
00:48:12,817 --> 00:48:16,433
Although, sometimes fear is
the only thing that keeps us alive.

695
00:48:16,658 --> 00:48:20,154
In this job anyway.
Fools rush in and all that.

696
00:48:20,178 --> 00:48:23,658
Maybe try and lay off the needless
heroics for the time being.

697
00:48:29,537 --> 00:48:31,537
Speaking of fools...

698
00:48:32,698 --> 00:48:36,658
..has Cassian Pewe
redecorated your office yet?

699
00:48:37,157 --> 00:48:39,983
All right, go on. What is it?
What is it with you two?

700
00:48:42,444 --> 00:48:47,420
One time, the Met sent down
reinforcements to help us out

701
00:48:47,445 --> 00:48:49,421
with the Labour Party conference
in town.

702
00:48:49,943 --> 00:48:51,943
Pewe was a DI.

703
00:48:52,457 --> 00:48:55,433
He ended up nicking
a couple of informants

704
00:48:55,458 --> 00:48:58,474
that I'd been cultivating
for several years.

705
00:48:58,863 --> 00:49:00,863
He refused to drop charges.

706
00:49:01,211 --> 00:49:03,423
So I took it to Vosper,

707
00:49:03,571 --> 00:49:07,051
and she sided with the
blue-eyed boy down from the Smoke.

708
00:49:09,391 --> 00:49:11,523
Never rub another man's rhubarb.

709
00:49:15,658 --> 00:49:16,635
Bella?

710
00:49:16,659 --> 00:49:19,143
The lift mechanism's been tampered with.

711
00:49:19,478 --> 00:49:21,454
Sabotaged, according to the engineer.

712
00:49:21,658 --> 00:49:24,062
Someone interfered
with the brake mechanism

713
00:49:24,087 --> 00:49:25,383
when the lift was in operation.

714
00:49:25,408 --> 00:49:27,224
And the alarm and phone cables were cut.

715
00:49:27,498 --> 00:49:30,154
- And what did Miss Jennings say?
- 'Nothing yet.'

716
00:49:30,178 --> 00:49:33,143
She's a new tenant, apparently.
Short let.

717
00:49:33,324 --> 00:49:35,300
Lives on her own
and only goes out after dark.

718
00:49:35,658 --> 00:49:37,143
Where is she now?

719
00:49:37,277 --> 00:49:39,483
Last seen earlier today
leaving the building with a man.

720
00:49:39,508 --> 00:49:41,508
Caretaker says she's single.

721
00:50:15,384 --> 00:50:17,720
- Nick about?
- No.

722
00:50:18,018 --> 00:50:20,634
I did see him talking to old
Cassian Pewe at his desk

723
00:50:20,658 --> 00:50:22,634
just before lunch.

724
00:50:22,658 --> 00:50:24,634
- What did he want?
- Your guess is as good as mine.

725
00:50:25,363 --> 00:50:26,668
Did you want him
for anything in particular?

726
00:50:26,692 --> 00:50:29,994
Yeah, I asked him to run a PNC
on that known associate of Welbeck's

727
00:50:30,018 --> 00:50:31,960
that Klinger mentioned. Chad Skebbs.

728
00:50:31,984 --> 00:50:34,634
He asked me to do it.
Full name Richard Skebbs.

729
00:50:34,658 --> 00:50:35,635
Turns out he's wanted in connection

730
00:50:35,659 --> 00:50:39,634
with an allegation
of indecent assault, from 2014.

731
00:50:39,658 --> 00:50:42,330
Didn't Klinger say
that Skebbs went abroad?

732
00:50:42,355 --> 00:50:43,635
- Spain, wasn't it?
- 'DS Moy.'

733
00:50:43,659 --> 00:50:46,143
I think you'll find
the correct term is "fled".

734
00:50:46,658 --> 00:50:47,783
Roy.

735
00:50:48,477 --> 00:50:50,453
Spinella. Line three.

736
00:50:50,658 --> 00:50:52,658
Says it's important.

737
00:50:57,104 --> 00:51:00,023
Mr Spinella.
We're looking into Miss Jennings.

738
00:51:00,048 --> 00:51:01,344
Thank you for the tip-off,

739
00:51:01,369 --> 00:51:03,345
we've got nothing official to say
at this time.

740
00:51:03,370 --> 00:51:06,346
Er, actually, it was you
I was calling about.

741
00:51:06,371 --> 00:51:09,347
I wondered if you had any comment
about what's going on at your house?

742
00:51:09,658 --> 00:51:10,943
My house?

743
00:51:11,124 --> 00:51:13,100
Well, if you don't know
anything about it,

744
00:51:13,125 --> 00:51:15,101
maybe you should get over here.

745
00:51:15,151 --> 00:51:16,351
I'll be outside.

746
00:51:20,411 --> 00:51:21,943
You all right?

747
00:51:40,543 --> 00:51:42,343
I'll be with you in a minute.

748
00:51:55,338 --> 00:51:56,674
What the fu...

749
00:51:56,698 --> 00:51:58,183
Nick...

750
00:52:00,537 --> 00:52:02,713
- What the hell is this?
- GPR.

751
00:52:02,858 --> 00:52:07,263
Ground penetrating radar.
I... I assumed you had OKed this.

752
00:52:07,357 --> 00:52:08,357
OKed what?

753
00:52:10,430 --> 00:52:12,446
- Nick?
- I've got a search warrant.

754
00:52:12,698 --> 00:52:14,583
Is this a joke?

755
00:52:15,018 --> 00:52:17,103
Who requested the warrant?

756
00:53:14,042 --> 00:53:15,743
How dare you?!

757
00:53:15,984 --> 00:53:17,800
What, this?

758
00:53:17,825 --> 00:53:19,961
CSI crawling all over my home.

759
00:53:20,397 --> 00:53:22,373
Taking soundings in my back garden

760
00:53:22,398 --> 00:53:24,734
for the body you think
I have buried there.

761
00:53:24,759 --> 00:53:26,554
Call it off. Now.

762
00:53:26,579 --> 00:53:29,264
I'm sorry. But having spoken
to Margot and Derek...

763
00:53:29,297 --> 00:53:31,423
You spoke to Sandy's parents?

764
00:53:31,658 --> 00:53:34,634
Allie Vosper asked me
to take over your backlog.

765
00:53:34,658 --> 00:53:37,634
And Sandy's was the first case
you turned up, was it?

766
00:53:37,658 --> 00:53:40,674
- She remains a cold case, Roy.
- You're telling me that?

767
00:53:40,698 --> 00:53:43,834
There isn't a stone
I have left unturned.

768
00:53:46,437 --> 00:53:50,413
Psychics? Cranks and mind readers?
End-of-the-pier fortune-tellers?

769
00:53:50,658 --> 00:53:52,423
If you'd lost somebody you'd loved,

770
00:53:52,448 --> 00:53:56,424
you would know that there is nothing
you wouldn't do to get them back!

771
00:53:56,449 --> 00:53:59,449
- No matter how unlikely.
- How do you know what I'd do?

772
00:54:00,544 --> 00:54:04,520
But I'll tell you this, I wouldn't
turn it into a three-ring circus.

773
00:54:04,545 --> 00:54:09,183
I was cleared of any involvement in
Sandy's disappearance. Exonerated.

774
00:54:09,270 --> 00:54:11,463
Not to the standard that
we would've applied in the Met.

775
00:54:11,698 --> 00:54:13,634
The Met? Really?

776
00:54:13,944 --> 00:54:17,944
Well, as we all know,
they're infallible, aren't they?

777
00:54:36,858 --> 00:54:39,634
Ronnie Welbeck's life insurers
finally got back to me.

778
00:54:40,023 --> 00:54:42,634
The pay-out was three million pounds.

779
00:54:42,658 --> 00:54:45,994
Three months
before she stepped off that ferry,

780
00:54:46,018 --> 00:54:49,154
Lorraine withdrew the entire amount
in cash.

781
00:54:49,178 --> 00:54:51,634
She died in poverty, with
nearly three million in the bank?

782
00:54:51,658 --> 00:54:53,634
Except the money wasn't in the bank.

783
00:54:53,658 --> 00:54:55,917
Ronnie and Lorraine Welbeck's
joint account

784
00:54:55,941 --> 00:54:57,634
shows an ever-increasing overdraft,

785
00:54:57,658 --> 00:55:00,314
with just occasional
small amounts coming in.

786
00:55:00,338 --> 00:55:01,844
Yeah, we knew they had money issues.

787
00:55:01,868 --> 00:55:03,431
Yeah, right up until the day he died.

788
00:55:03,455 --> 00:55:06,634
But an account was opened
in Lorraine Welbeck's sole name

789
00:55:06,658 --> 00:55:08,634
nine months after Ronnie was killed.

790
00:55:08,658 --> 00:55:10,634
For the life insurance, presumably?

791
00:55:10,658 --> 00:55:13,561
Yeah, but I don't understand
how it was paid out that fast.

792
00:55:13,585 --> 00:55:17,463
Well, the insurance company assigned
to the case weren't entirely happy,

793
00:55:17,488 --> 00:55:20,464
but the Drugs Squad investigation
suggested there was another dealer,

794
00:55:20,489 --> 00:55:21,985
possibly French,

795
00:55:22,010 --> 00:55:24,466
who wanted to give Klinger
a message to keep off his turf.

796
00:55:24,658 --> 00:55:26,634
They blew the plane up?

797
00:55:27,023 --> 00:55:28,992
Using Ronnie as collateral.

798
00:55:29,623 --> 00:55:30,634
Well...

799
00:55:30,658 --> 00:55:34,634
that to one side for the minute,
is there some sort of pattern here?

800
00:55:34,658 --> 00:55:38,331
Look, Ronnie Welbeck's
first wife inherits money,

801
00:55:38,355 --> 00:55:41,331
disappears to the States
and ends up in a storm drain.

802
00:55:41,355 --> 00:55:43,331
Then his second wife inherits money

803
00:55:43,355 --> 00:55:45,331
and ends up
at the bottom of the Channel.

804
00:55:45,703 --> 00:55:49,531
So what're you saying, she didn't
commit suicide? Somebody killed her?

805
00:55:50,523 --> 00:55:51,878
I'm just what-iffing.

806
00:55:51,902 --> 00:55:53,331
Couldn't've been Ronnie, then,

807
00:55:53,355 --> 00:55:55,331
because he died in that
plane crash or bombing

808
00:55:55,355 --> 00:55:58,331
or whatever it was
a year before Lorraine died.

809
00:55:58,355 --> 00:56:00,371
Yeah, but what about his mate, Skebbs?

810
00:56:00,395 --> 00:56:04,011
Mitzi Dufors said one of Ronnie's
mates was sniffing around Joanna.

811
00:56:04,035 --> 00:56:08,171
Couldn't remember the name, but
it was something like Chas or Chet.

812
00:56:08,195 --> 00:56:10,977
Hmm. Not too much
of a stretch to Chad, is it?

813
00:56:11,001 --> 00:56:14,796
Well, I've been doing some digging
around Richard "Chad" Skebbs.

814
00:56:14,820 --> 00:56:17,331
And it seems that it wasn't
in the public interest

815
00:56:17,355 --> 00:56:19,331
to follow him to Europe.

816
00:56:19,355 --> 00:56:21,331
He thought they'd fled to Albania,

817
00:56:21,355 --> 00:56:24,331
but he's last been seen in Spain
and southern France.

818
00:56:24,355 --> 00:56:25,775
Keep digging.

819
00:56:26,835 --> 00:56:29,583
I've got a lead
on a guy called Hector Hegarty.

820
00:56:29,608 --> 00:56:32,608
He's a stamp dealer, remembers
doing business with Ronnie Welbeck.

821
00:56:53,355 --> 00:56:55,331
'My God, it's a nightmare as well.'

822
00:57:00,355 --> 00:57:02,331
- Don't get up. Don't get up.
- What're you doing here?

823
00:57:02,355 --> 00:57:05,331
- I thought you were still away.
- I wanted to surprise you.

824
00:57:05,355 --> 00:57:08,423
Oh, Mum. I've missed you so much.

825
00:57:09,355 --> 00:57:11,331
- So much.
- Ohh!

826
00:57:20,195 --> 00:57:22,331
Detective Superintendent Pewe.

827
00:57:22,355 --> 00:57:24,822
'This is DS Franks from Interpol.'

828
00:57:25,313 --> 00:57:26,798
How can we help you?

829
00:57:26,823 --> 00:57:29,331
'I believe you asked
our colleagues in France to look at

830
00:57:29,355 --> 00:57:32,355
'a development sight for you.
Is that correct?'

831
00:57:44,823 --> 00:57:47,802
Oh, yes, I did a fair bit of
business with Ronnie over the years.

832
00:57:47,826 --> 00:57:50,016
He wasn't the easiest
person to deal with.

833
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:51,250
In what way?

834
00:57:51,274 --> 00:57:53,331
Well, you know. To put it crudely,

835
00:57:53,355 --> 00:57:57,331
the provenance on some of his stuff
was doubtful, shall we say?

836
00:57:57,355 --> 00:57:58,691
What about his second wife?

837
00:57:58,715 --> 00:58:02,023
Did Lorraine Welbeck ever contact
you after her husband's death?

838
00:58:03,355 --> 00:58:07,331
I don't suppose it matters now.
But she had me swear to secrecy.

839
00:58:07,355 --> 00:58:08,904
Well, a murder inquiry trumps

840
00:58:08,928 --> 00:58:11,623
any word you might have given,
Mr Hegarty.

841
00:58:13,875 --> 00:58:17,171
She came to see me, spring 2016,

842
00:58:17,195 --> 00:58:19,195
wanted to invest some money in stamps.

843
00:58:19,214 --> 00:58:21,083
Can you remember the sum involved?

844
00:58:21,107 --> 00:58:22,171
Not off hand.

845
00:58:22,195 --> 00:58:24,331
But any big order draws attention
in the stamp world.

846
00:58:24,355 --> 00:58:27,011
She wanted it done quietly
and discreetly.

847
00:58:27,035 --> 00:58:29,851
So I fronted the purchases for her.
Spread the money around.

848
00:58:29,875 --> 00:58:32,892
Said I was buying
for an anonymous collector.

849
00:58:32,916 --> 00:58:34,579
Can you provide us with a list

850
00:58:34,603 --> 00:58:36,331
of all the stamps
that you sold to Mrs Welbeck?

851
00:58:36,355 --> 00:58:38,331
And the value.

852
00:58:38,355 --> 00:58:40,331
Give me a little time
to consult my records.

853
00:58:40,823 --> 00:58:42,331
Could you also give us a list of anyone

854
00:58:42,355 --> 00:58:44,834
who might have been able to afford them,

855
00:58:44,858 --> 00:58:46,777
if she'd wanted to sell them on?

856
00:58:46,801 --> 00:58:48,990
I can give you the dealers,
and a few individual collectors

857
00:58:49,014 --> 00:58:51,331
like myself.
Course, back then, round here,

858
00:58:51,355 --> 00:58:54,691
there was a chap Ronnie knew well
himself, but he went abroad.

859
00:58:55,102 --> 00:58:56,718
Who was that?

860
00:58:56,930 --> 00:58:59,508
Richard Skebbs. Called himself Chad.

861
00:58:59,532 --> 00:59:01,331
Always dealt in big numbers.

862
00:59:01,355 --> 00:59:04,331
Still does,
but all done over the internet now.

863
00:59:04,355 --> 00:59:08,331
- And did you ever buy from him?
- Oh, once bitten...

864
00:59:08,355 --> 00:59:11,563
I bought some Spanish Civil War era
stamps from him. Did me right up.

865
00:59:11,587 --> 00:59:13,889
They weren't in anything
like the condition he had promised.

866
00:59:13,913 --> 00:59:16,531
When I complained,
he told me to sue him.

867
00:59:16,983 --> 00:59:19,875
Frankly,
I'm amazed he's still in business.

868
00:59:21,583 --> 00:59:24,371
What's going on, Ab? What is it?

869
00:59:24,983 --> 00:59:27,691
I may be getting forgetful,
but I'm not stupid.

870
00:59:27,715 --> 00:59:29,331
You're frightened.

871
00:59:30,143 --> 00:59:33,011
It's just someone who wants me
to go out with 'em.

872
00:59:33,035 --> 00:59:35,331
He's trying to get to me
through you. That's all.

873
00:59:35,355 --> 00:59:39,684
- What's your fella doing about it?
- Nothing, Mum. He's not here.

874
00:59:39,708 --> 00:59:42,331
- Why isn't he?
- It's complicated.

875
00:59:42,355 --> 00:59:43,812
The taxman's after him.

876
00:59:43,836 --> 00:59:46,331
And if he comes into the country,
he could get picked up.

877
00:59:46,355 --> 00:59:48,331
Doesn't sound like much of a boyfriend.

878
00:59:48,608 --> 00:59:51,288
A man ought to take care
of the woman he loves.

879
00:59:52,355 --> 00:59:54,543
Hi, I need some new locks
at my mum's flat.

880
00:59:54,908 --> 00:59:57,908
- 'Right.'
- And a safety chain and a spyhole.

881
01:00:18,221 --> 01:00:21,330
Lorraine Welbeck's name
is on a Post-it on my desk.

882
01:00:21,355 --> 01:00:22,983
"DS Franks"?

883
01:00:23,149 --> 01:00:26,485
Ah, yes. This location you've asked
the French to take a look at.

884
01:00:26,715 --> 01:00:27,997
What's this?

885
01:00:28,544 --> 01:00:31,331
It's to do with the body
in the storm drain, Ma'am.

886
01:00:31,355 --> 01:00:34,331
Remains of
an unidentified, pregnant woman

887
01:00:34,355 --> 01:00:37,011
were found in the boot of a car
pulled from a lake on the property.

888
01:00:37,035 --> 01:00:38,331
It's been there for some years.

889
01:00:38,903 --> 01:00:41,331
They've obtained DNA
from her and the foetus,

890
01:00:41,355 --> 01:00:44,331
but they haven't been able to make
any matches on their database.

891
01:00:44,583 --> 01:00:46,863
Where does Lorraine Welbeck fit in?

892
01:00:47,355 --> 01:00:50,331
Lorraine Welbeck is the second
wife of Ronnie Welbeck, Ma'am.

893
01:00:50,355 --> 01:00:52,772
She was working for the estate agent

894
01:00:52,797 --> 01:00:55,011
that sold the plot of land in France.

895
01:00:55,083 --> 01:00:57,783
Oh, it's rather more than that, Roy.

896
01:00:58,783 --> 01:01:02,331
The corpse in the boot of the car
had silicone breast implants.

897
01:01:02,903 --> 01:01:04,331
Now, you may not know this,

898
01:01:04,355 --> 01:01:08,171
but they're all printed with
the manufacturer's batch number.

899
01:01:08,195 --> 01:01:09,825
This particular pair was supplied

900
01:01:09,849 --> 01:01:12,331
to a cosmetic surgery hospital
in Woodingdean in 2015.

901
01:01:12,355 --> 01:01:14,331
So I called them.

902
01:01:14,823 --> 01:01:17,331
They matched the implants
with the name...

903
01:01:17,703 --> 01:01:19,331
Lorraine Welbeck.

904
01:01:19,355 --> 01:01:21,331
That's excellent.

905
01:01:21,968 --> 01:01:23,968
Don't you think so, Roy?

906
01:01:26,023 --> 01:01:29,331
What are we saying, Lorraine
Welbeck swam the Bay of Biscay

907
01:01:29,355 --> 01:01:31,691
with three million quid stuffed
between the Devil's dumplings?

908
01:01:31,715 --> 01:01:34,823
- Doesn't seem very likely.
- Probably not, Norman.

909
01:01:34,847 --> 01:01:37,331
But she was four months pregnant.

910
01:01:37,355 --> 01:01:40,011
The French have no paternal DNA match,

911
01:01:40,035 --> 01:01:43,851
but we're checking our database, we
should hear back later or tomorrow.

912
01:01:43,875 --> 01:01:46,844
- Anything on cause?
- Strangulation.

913
01:01:46,868 --> 01:01:48,623
Same as Joanna Welbeck.

914
01:01:49,302 --> 01:01:52,879
Did we get any further on the owners
of this plot of land in France?

915
01:01:52,904 --> 01:01:56,279
Cape Trafalgar Holdings
and this elusive David Nelson?

916
01:01:56,355 --> 01:01:57,873
No. Nothing.

917
01:01:57,897 --> 01:02:00,583
At least we know that Lorraine
Welbeck didn't commit suicide.

918
01:02:01,783 --> 01:02:05,331
Run a check on the
passenger manifest for the ferry

919
01:02:05,355 --> 01:02:07,371
on the night that she supposedly jumped.

920
01:02:07,943 --> 01:02:09,331
What am I looking for?

921
01:02:09,355 --> 01:02:12,331
Anything out of the ordinary.
Chad Skebbs, maybe?

922
01:02:12,355 --> 01:02:15,331
Mitzi Dufors said he was
sniffing around Joanna Welbeck.

923
01:02:15,355 --> 01:02:18,331
And she came into money
shortly before she disappeared.

924
01:02:18,783 --> 01:02:21,783
So could he have been behind the
bomb on Ronnie Welbeck's plane?

925
01:02:22,808 --> 01:02:24,331
So he kills Ronnie Welbeck

926
01:02:24,355 --> 01:02:29,171
and he's waiting to catch Lorraine
Welbeck and Ronnie's life insurance.

927
01:02:29,195 --> 01:02:32,331
- Yeah, possibly.
- So, where's the money?

928
01:02:32,355 --> 01:02:34,691
There's not gonna be room
for three mil in the bazooka bag

929
01:02:34,715 --> 01:02:38,171
if it's already stuffed with
bought-and-paid-for silicone norks.

930
01:02:38,503 --> 01:02:40,823
Did he really just say that out loud?

931
01:02:41,355 --> 01:02:43,331
I don't think it was cash, Norman.

932
01:02:43,703 --> 01:02:47,925
'When Ronnie Welbeck's plane went
down, he died leaving massive debts.

933
01:02:48,343 --> 01:02:51,331
'Every penny he left to Lorraine
had been taken by his creditors,

934
01:02:51,355 --> 01:02:53,331
'and their house repossessed.

935
01:02:53,583 --> 01:02:55,331
'Before she got on that ferry,

936
01:02:55,355 --> 01:02:58,331
'Lorraine Welbeck converted
her husband's life insurance

937
01:02:58,355 --> 01:03:01,355
'into something
much easier to transport...

938
01:03:06,355 --> 01:03:08,355
'..and far easier to conceal.'

939
01:03:22,875 --> 01:03:24,355
Oh, my God!

940
01:03:26,475 --> 01:03:28,183
Are you all right?

941
01:03:29,355 --> 01:03:31,331
A man who hates me

942
01:03:31,355 --> 01:03:34,331
is trying to convince
the people that I work with

943
01:03:34,355 --> 01:03:36,623
that I killed my wife. So...

944
01:03:37,995 --> 01:03:40,023
You said to be honest.

945
01:03:40,355 --> 01:03:43,183
Hmm. Is there anything I can do?

946
01:03:44,548 --> 01:03:46,908
Unless you're a dab hand
with carpet grippers...

947
01:03:49,475 --> 01:03:51,475
Do you want to talk about it?

948
01:03:53,355 --> 01:03:54,395
Do you?

949
01:03:57,355 --> 01:03:58,851
Maybe not tonight.

950
01:03:59,383 --> 01:04:02,331
Maybe tonight is exactly
the right time to talk about it.

951
01:04:02,575 --> 01:04:05,103
I'm not about
to kick a man when he's down.

952
01:04:09,682 --> 01:04:11,682
If I've got to be honest...

953
01:04:16,242 --> 01:04:17,583
All right.

954
01:04:20,355 --> 01:04:22,903
I just keep thinking...

955
01:04:26,355 --> 01:04:28,331
..what if she walked
through the door right now?

956
01:04:29,261 --> 01:04:31,301
Where does that leave you and me?

957
01:04:32,489 --> 01:04:34,489
It's not gonna happen.

958
01:04:38,743 --> 01:04:40,355
See, erm...

959
01:04:41,642 --> 01:04:44,303
..that's not the answer.

960
01:04:46,663 --> 01:04:49,331
The answer is,
"It wouldn't matter, Cleo.

961
01:04:49,355 --> 01:04:53,035
"She walked out on me seven years
ago. And I'm with you now."

962
01:04:58,942 --> 01:05:02,903
Call me when you're through...
with all of this.

963
01:05:32,903 --> 01:05:34,331
Hello?

964
01:05:34,355 --> 01:05:36,331
- Mrs Morton?
- Yes.

965
01:05:36,355 --> 01:05:39,623
Silverlight Lockworks.
Your daughter Abby called.

966
01:05:42,715 --> 01:05:45,355
Come in.

967
01:05:51,355 --> 01:05:52,851
You called, Mr Hegarty?

968
01:05:52,875 --> 01:05:55,658
I've just had a phone call
from a rather nervous young woman.

969
01:05:56,243 --> 01:05:59,331
She asked if I'd be able to sell
a collection of high-value stamps.

970
01:05:59,663 --> 01:06:01,331
When I asked for details,

971
01:06:01,355 --> 01:06:06,331
she described exactly the stamps
I purchased for Lorraine Welbeck.

972
01:06:06,355 --> 01:06:07,489
Are you sure?

973
01:06:07,513 --> 01:06:09,331
If I hadn't gone through my files today,

974
01:06:09,355 --> 01:06:12,331
I doubt I'd have realised
they were such an exact match.

975
01:06:12,823 --> 01:06:14,331
Did you ask her where she got them?

976
01:06:14,355 --> 01:06:18,127
She said she inherited them from
a woman she looked after in Spain.

977
01:06:18,151 --> 01:06:20,331
Somebody she'd met
at a party there told her

978
01:06:20,355 --> 01:06:22,004
she'd get a better price in the UK

979
01:06:22,028 --> 01:06:24,331
and I was one of the dealers
she should talk to.

980
01:06:24,355 --> 01:06:27,331
She's coming in this afternoon
to show me the stamps.

981
01:06:28,263 --> 01:06:29,343
What's her name?

982
01:06:31,355 --> 01:06:33,875
Miss Jennings? Police.

983
01:06:36,355 --> 01:06:38,355
Open it.

984
01:06:43,708 --> 01:06:45,543
Miss Jennings?

985
01:06:51,615 --> 01:06:54,983
Nice quiet hobby, eh, stamp collecting.

986
01:07:07,008 --> 01:07:08,488
Mum?

987
01:07:16,035 --> 01:07:18,331
'Abbs. It's me. It's Mum.'

988
01:07:18,355 --> 01:07:19,503
Mum?

989
01:07:20,355 --> 01:07:22,686
Mum, where are..
Where d'you get a mobile?

990
01:07:23,023 --> 01:07:27,423
Ricky wants to talk to you.
Please do what he tells you.

991
01:07:28,355 --> 01:07:30,331
- Hello, Ab.
- Where's my mum?

992
01:07:30,355 --> 01:07:33,331
Where is she, you bastard? Where is she?

993
01:07:33,355 --> 01:07:35,849
She's fine. So far.

994
01:07:35,873 --> 01:07:37,331
I'm calling the police.

995
01:07:37,355 --> 01:07:39,331
Look, I don't care about
anything else any more.

996
01:07:39,355 --> 01:07:40,531
'What're you going to say to them?'

997
01:07:40,555 --> 01:07:42,331
"I stole everything this man had

998
01:07:42,355 --> 01:07:44,810
"and now he's caught up with me
and taken my mother hostage?"

999
01:07:44,834 --> 01:07:48,331
- What, I stole from you?
- You and himself, obviously.

1000
01:07:48,355 --> 01:07:50,331
Was there any position
he didn't tell you to shag me in

1001
01:07:50,355 --> 01:07:51,531
to get what you wanted?

1002
01:07:51,555 --> 01:07:55,309
This has got nothing to do
with my mum, Rick. She's not well.

1003
01:07:55,743 --> 01:07:57,531
Look, just bring her here
and we'll talk.

1004
01:07:57,555 --> 01:08:00,331
No. You bring me everything
you nicked and then we'll talk.

1005
01:08:00,663 --> 01:08:02,331
Look, I meant what I said.

1006
01:08:02,355 --> 01:08:04,331
I'm hanging up now
and calling the police.

1007
01:08:04,355 --> 01:08:07,011
You do that, and all they're gonna
find is a chronically ill woman

1008
01:08:07,035 --> 01:08:09,103
who's committed suicide,
and her daughter,

1009
01:08:09,127 --> 01:08:10,996
a self-confessed thief
with a cock-and-bull story

1010
01:08:11,020 --> 01:08:15,331
about a man she stole from.
Is that really what you want?

1011
01:08:16,875 --> 01:08:18,355
Rick!

1012
01:08:21,355 --> 01:08:24,331
So I've been going through the
passenger manifest for the ferry

1013
01:08:24,355 --> 01:08:26,331
that Lorraine Welbeck didn't step off.

1014
01:08:26,355 --> 01:08:28,946
It seemed to me, if you're
leaving one identity behind,

1015
01:08:28,970 --> 01:08:31,761
it makes sense to have another one
lined up. Right?

1016
01:08:31,785 --> 01:08:33,851
You mean, she got on the boat
as Lorraine Welbeck

1017
01:08:33,875 --> 01:08:35,331
and stepped off as someone else?

1018
01:08:35,663 --> 01:08:38,331
So I went through all the other
women passengers travelling

1019
01:08:38,355 --> 01:08:39,691
on a single ticket and I compared them

1020
01:08:39,715 --> 01:08:41,331
to anyone travelling on from Dieppe.

1021
01:08:41,355 --> 01:08:44,331
I found one passenger
who got on an Air France flight

1022
01:08:44,355 --> 01:08:47,171
- within an hour of the ferry docking.
- Where to?

1023
01:08:47,195 --> 01:08:48,373
San Sebastian.

1024
01:08:48,397 --> 01:08:50,855
Hold on.
So she got on the ferry to Dieppe,

1025
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:55,016
and then within an hour she got
on a plane from there to Spain?

1026
01:08:55,041 --> 01:08:57,017
Why not just fly direct from the UK?

1027
01:08:57,315 --> 01:08:59,291
- Name?
- Margaret Nelson.

1028
01:08:59,355 --> 01:09:02,331
Only, her ticket was paid for
by one David Nelson.

1029
01:09:02,355 --> 01:09:07,331
Ah, the same David Nelson
of Cape Trafalgar Holdings maybe?

1030
01:09:07,355 --> 01:09:11,112
So what're we thinking? Maybe
David Nelson is Ronnie Welbeck?

1031
01:09:11,136 --> 01:09:12,331
More than maybe.

1032
01:09:12,355 --> 01:09:15,331
I also have a David Nelson
who got on a flight to Madrid,

1033
01:09:15,355 --> 01:09:17,583
then on to San Sebastian from Jersey,

1034
01:09:17,607 --> 01:09:20,851
the morning after Ronnie's light
aircraft disappeared in the channel.

1035
01:09:20,875 --> 01:09:23,331
So Ronnie Welbeck fakes his own death

1036
01:09:23,355 --> 01:09:25,331
in order to escape his creditors.

1037
01:09:25,355 --> 01:09:28,331
And Lorraine converts
his life insurance into stamps

1038
01:09:28,355 --> 01:09:30,531
in order to fund her new life in Spain.

1039
01:09:31,063 --> 01:09:33,000
Isn't that where Chad
Skebbs went off to?

1040
01:09:33,024 --> 01:09:34,161
Potentially.

1041
01:09:34,185 --> 01:09:36,602
But where Lorraine was found
just outside of Biarritz,

1042
01:09:36,626 --> 01:09:39,355
well, that's half an hour
from the Spanish border.

1043
01:09:40,623 --> 01:09:44,331
Which is an hour to San Sebastian.

1044
01:09:44,355 --> 01:09:47,331
Just two Brighton boys
having fun in the sun...

1045
01:09:47,783 --> 01:09:51,331
We've got DNA confirmation
on the Lorraine Welbeck foetus.

1046
01:09:51,355 --> 01:09:53,331
Guess who the father is?

1047
01:09:53,808 --> 01:09:54,808
Ronnie Welbeck.

1048
01:09:55,715 --> 01:09:59,857
Not bad for a dead guy, eh?
The Immaculate Erection.

1049
01:09:59,881 --> 01:10:01,331
See?

1050
01:10:01,355 --> 01:10:03,645
This is why we can't have nice things.

1051
01:10:03,669 --> 01:10:06,331
- What about Katherine Jennings?
- We couldn't find her.

1052
01:10:06,355 --> 01:10:09,371
No. I mean, she's here.
She's downstairs.

1053
01:10:09,663 --> 01:10:11,331
My real name's Abby Morton.

1054
01:10:11,983 --> 01:10:15,331
I flew back to England
to try to escape my boyfriend.

1055
01:10:15,355 --> 01:10:18,781
I thought using a different name
would make it easier.

1056
01:10:18,805 --> 01:10:20,355
But I was wrong.

1057
01:10:22,288 --> 01:10:26,264
OK, Abby, would you like to tell us
what's going on?

1058
01:10:26,355 --> 01:10:29,331
Everything we need to know
about you, your mother,

1059
01:10:29,355 --> 01:10:31,355
and the man you say who kidnapped her.

1060
01:10:33,355 --> 01:10:35,331
I was left a collection of stamps.

1061
01:10:35,703 --> 01:10:39,930
I didn't know anything about them,
but I was dating this guy, Ricky,

1062
01:10:39,954 --> 01:10:43,899
in San Sebastian, who was
in the rare stamp and coin business.

1063
01:10:43,923 --> 01:10:46,331
Ricky? As in Richard Skebbs?

1064
01:10:46,355 --> 01:10:48,996
Yeah. Yeah, you know him?

1065
01:10:49,020 --> 01:10:51,035
Yeah. We know him. Go on.

1066
01:10:52,503 --> 01:10:55,331
Well, I asked him
to have a look at 'em for me.

1067
01:10:55,543 --> 01:10:58,331
See if they were worth anything.
I gave them to him.

1068
01:10:58,355 --> 01:11:01,011
He gave 'em back a couple of days later.

1069
01:11:01,035 --> 01:11:03,331
He said there were a few there
that might be worth something,

1070
01:11:03,355 --> 01:11:08,082
but most of them were replicas.
Collectable, but not valuable.

1071
01:11:08,503 --> 01:11:11,331
He said they're worth
a couple of thousand euros at most.

1072
01:11:11,355 --> 01:11:16,331
But a few days later, I was having
a look at one of his stamp mags

1073
01:11:16,355 --> 01:11:20,331
and I came across this article
about a Plate 77 Penny Red,

1074
01:11:20,783 --> 01:11:24,331
went for over 450 large
at auction in London.

1075
01:11:24,783 --> 01:11:27,331
It was similar
to the plate of Penny Reds I had.

1076
01:11:27,863 --> 01:11:31,954
Anyway, later that night he was wasted,

1077
01:11:31,978 --> 01:11:34,331
so I had
a look at his laptop and I found

1078
01:11:34,355 --> 01:11:37,802
this bunch of emails to dealers
all over the world,

1079
01:11:37,826 --> 01:11:40,331
offering stamps that were
clearly mine for sale.

1080
01:11:40,823 --> 01:11:44,331
He'd broken 'em up so they couldn't
be identified as a collection.

1081
01:11:45,343 --> 01:11:47,331
And did you confront him?

1082
01:11:47,962 --> 01:11:49,162
No.

1083
01:11:49,715 --> 01:11:51,331
No.

1084
01:11:51,623 --> 01:11:56,011
When I first met him, he told me
how easy stamps were to conceal.

1085
01:11:56,035 --> 01:11:58,331
How they were a great way
to launder money

1086
01:11:58,355 --> 01:12:00,331
and transport it all across the world.

1087
01:12:00,355 --> 01:12:02,032
Even if you got stopped,

1088
01:12:02,056 --> 01:12:04,851
most customs wouldn't have a clue
about their value.

1089
01:12:05,863 --> 01:12:09,063
'Ricky said the best way
to hide 'em was inside a book.

1090
01:12:10,355 --> 01:12:12,331
'Hardback. Or anything like that.

1091
01:12:12,355 --> 01:12:15,783
'So, I searched his shelves.

1092
01:12:25,035 --> 01:12:26,715
'And I found them.'

1093
01:12:36,555 --> 01:12:40,331
I packed a bag and flew out
on the first flight I could get.

1094
01:12:40,743 --> 01:12:45,103
So why didn't you go to the Spanish
police, report what he'd done?

1095
01:12:46,355 --> 01:12:49,331
I thought he might spin the police
a story to get them back.

1096
01:12:49,355 --> 01:12:53,063
Or come after me, try and hurt me.

1097
01:12:56,035 --> 01:12:57,851
My mum's not well.

1098
01:12:58,148 --> 01:13:00,903
I need the money from the stamps
to pay for her to be in a home.

1099
01:13:06,355 --> 01:13:08,903
Did you ever meet this man?

1100
01:13:10,583 --> 01:13:13,851
No. Why? Who is he?

1101
01:13:14,263 --> 01:13:18,331
His name's Ronnie Welbeck. He's
a known associate of Chad Skebbs.

1102
01:13:18,355 --> 01:13:21,181
We're looking for him in
connection with a double murder.

1103
01:13:21,205 --> 01:13:22,171
Murder?

1104
01:13:22,195 --> 01:13:24,331
That's right, the body of his first wife

1105
01:13:24,355 --> 01:13:27,171
was found recently
in a storm drain in Brighton.

1106
01:13:27,195 --> 01:13:30,331
And his second wife, Lorraine,
was recovered from the boot of a car

1107
01:13:30,355 --> 01:13:34,663
in a pond on land that we believe
Welbeck owns in Biarritz.

1108
01:13:34,928 --> 01:13:36,928
She was four months pregnant.

1109
01:13:40,703 --> 01:13:44,331
Both his wives had just come into
considerable sums

1110
01:13:44,355 --> 01:13:47,623
before they were killed.
You're sure you don't know him?

1111
01:13:49,035 --> 01:13:52,063
He may be calling himself
Dave Nelson now.

1112
01:13:54,355 --> 01:13:58,195
Call himself what he likes, I...
I wouldn't know. I've never met him.

1113
01:14:01,715 --> 01:14:05,331
So you say you were left these stamps.

1114
01:14:05,663 --> 01:14:08,331
- Yeah. That's right.
- By whom?

1115
01:14:08,355 --> 01:14:11,691
Mrs Jennings. Katherine Jennings.

1116
01:14:11,715 --> 01:14:15,663
She was an old lady
I was a live-in carer for in Spain.

1117
01:14:17,355 --> 01:14:19,795
- And where are they now?
- They're...

1118
01:14:20,615 --> 01:14:22,303
they're safe.

1119
01:14:24,035 --> 01:14:26,303
- You believe her?
- Not really.

1120
01:14:27,355 --> 01:14:30,331
But whatever else she's lying about,
I do believe she's frightened.

1121
01:14:30,823 --> 01:14:32,331
There's no way she would come and see us

1122
01:14:32,355 --> 01:14:35,331
unless she was genuinely scared
for her mother's life.

1123
01:14:35,355 --> 01:14:37,985
But she's lying about where
she came by the stamps.

1124
01:14:38,009 --> 01:14:39,331
Almost certainly.

1125
01:14:39,355 --> 01:14:41,331
Ronnie was already seeing Lorraine

1126
01:14:41,355 --> 01:14:43,331
by the time
Joanna came into her inheritance.

1127
01:14:43,355 --> 01:14:46,331
So Ronnie rids himself of Joanna,
and then ends up with the money,

1128
01:14:46,355 --> 01:14:48,331
and Lorraine into the bargain.

1129
01:14:48,355 --> 01:14:52,011
Further down the line, he fakes his
own death to escape his creditors

1130
01:14:52,035 --> 01:14:54,331
and then cashes in
on his life insurance.

1131
01:14:54,355 --> 01:14:57,011
Which Lorraine collects
and converts into stamps.

1132
01:14:57,035 --> 01:14:59,341
And then, Lorraine fakes her death,

1133
01:14:59,365 --> 01:15:01,331
flies under an assumed name to Spain

1134
01:15:01,355 --> 01:15:05,331
to join Ronnie and start a new
life as Margaret and David Nelson.

1135
01:15:05,355 --> 01:15:08,162
And then history repeats itself.

1136
01:15:08,186 --> 01:15:10,834
Ronnie meets Abby,
the next thing you know,

1137
01:15:10,858 --> 01:15:13,851
Lorraine's in the boot of a car
in a pond in France.

1138
01:15:13,875 --> 01:15:15,583
And the stamps?

1139
01:15:15,607 --> 01:15:18,331
Well, I think she's
twisting the story a little bit.

1140
01:15:18,355 --> 01:15:21,331
So Ronnie gets in touch
with his old mate Skebbs

1141
01:15:21,355 --> 01:15:23,331
with a view to selling the stamps.

1142
01:15:23,355 --> 01:15:26,171
And Skebbs rips him off by replacing
the real ones with fake.

1143
01:15:26,195 --> 01:15:28,331
And Ronnie sends in Abby
to get them back,

1144
01:15:28,355 --> 01:15:30,750
and, well, the rest goes down
pretty much the way she said.

1145
01:15:30,774 --> 01:15:33,203
Yeah, but we'll get to the bottom of it.

1146
01:15:33,227 --> 01:15:37,331
But right now, our priority
is getting Abby's mum back alive.

1147
01:15:37,355 --> 01:15:39,331
And on that score, all we can do

1148
01:15:39,355 --> 01:15:41,355
is wait for Skebbs
to make his next move.

1149
01:15:49,355 --> 01:15:50,863
Ma'am.

1150
01:15:51,863 --> 01:15:55,734
Abby Morton, Katherine Jennings,
is currently sitting in a hotel,

1151
01:15:55,758 --> 01:15:58,171
awaiting instructions from Skebbs

1152
01:15:58,195 --> 01:16:01,171
for the handover
of the stamps and her mother.

1153
01:16:01,195 --> 01:16:04,355
I'd like Cassian on the team.
In an observational capacity.

1154
01:16:06,355 --> 01:16:09,195
The man has tried to suggest
I murdered my wife.

1155
01:16:10,355 --> 01:16:11,566
That's an observation.

1156
01:16:11,590 --> 01:16:14,331
Cassian is an experienced
hostage negotiator.

1157
01:16:14,943 --> 01:16:18,331
I'd like Skebbs taken alive,
with no loss of life,

1158
01:16:18,355 --> 01:16:21,331
and no major injury to any of my
officers or members of the public.

1159
01:16:25,355 --> 01:16:27,143
It's her.

1160
01:16:49,355 --> 01:16:51,331
I should probably clear the air.

1161
01:16:51,355 --> 01:16:54,331
- You should probably clear your desk.
- I was trying to help.

1162
01:16:54,355 --> 01:16:56,331
And what did you find, Cassian?

1163
01:16:56,355 --> 01:16:59,331
In your search of my house and garden.

1164
01:17:00,066 --> 01:17:01,331
Nothing.

1165
01:17:01,355 --> 01:17:03,355
No. And do you know why?

1166
01:17:04,355 --> 01:17:06,555
Because I didn't murder my wife.

1167
01:17:12,062 --> 01:17:13,332
'Yeah.'

1168
01:17:13,356 --> 01:17:15,851
- 'You're late.'
- I missed the turn-off.

1169
01:17:16,503 --> 01:17:18,331
Where do you want me to go?

1170
01:17:18,355 --> 01:17:21,150
'Take a left at the top and a right
after the barn.

1171
01:17:21,174 --> 01:17:22,661
' 'Where's my mum?'

1172
01:17:22,685 --> 01:17:26,543
'Safe enough. But I swear, if I see
anybody besides you, she's dead.'

1173
01:17:40,642 --> 01:17:43,783
- You're not following her?
- You heard him.

1174
01:18:06,355 --> 01:18:09,355
- Where's my mum?
- Where's the stamps?

1175
01:18:18,782 --> 01:18:21,782
- I want to see my mum.
- Just give me the stamps, Abby.

1176
01:18:27,355 --> 01:18:28,355
Argh!

1177
01:18:30,355 --> 01:18:32,851
- Shit. What's she doing?
- Mum?

1178
01:18:32,875 --> 01:18:35,331
- Abby? Abby!
- Mum?

1179
01:18:35,355 --> 01:18:38,223
- Abby, help me!
- Go! Glen! Go!

1180
01:18:46,355 --> 01:18:50,355
- Abby! Abby! Help me!
- Please stop! Mum!

1181
01:18:52,355 --> 01:18:54,355
Please stop the van!

1182
01:19:05,355 --> 01:19:06,875
Mum!

1183
01:19:27,355 --> 01:19:29,331
Give me your hands, give me your hands.

1184
01:19:31,715 --> 01:19:35,331
We're going to get out

1185
01:19:35,355 --> 01:19:37,331
It's all right. Don't let go.

1186
01:19:37,355 --> 01:19:39,543
I just need you
to follow me out. Mum, Please.

1187
01:19:43,355 --> 01:19:46,355
Get in the van!
Give it some extra weight!

1188
01:19:48,715 --> 01:19:51,195
Lean on it! Lean on it!

1189
01:19:52,355 --> 01:19:53,332
More gas!

1190
01:19:53,356 --> 01:19:55,691
- Oh, God!
- Hold on.

1191
01:19:55,715 --> 01:20:00,355
- Mum. Mum, come on, we need to go.
- Gonna fall.

1192
01:20:01,355 --> 01:20:03,171
No!

1193
01:20:03,195 --> 01:20:04,691
Give me your hand.

1194
01:20:06,555 --> 01:20:08,355
Floor it!

1195
01:20:10,035 --> 01:20:11,691
Mind out, mind out.

1196
01:20:11,715 --> 01:20:14,355
- More weight! Put your weight on it.
- I am trying. Go, go!

1197
01:20:20,395 --> 01:20:22,623
Cassian, no, it won't take your weight!

1198
01:20:26,355 --> 01:20:28,331
Come on. Come on!

1199
01:20:28,355 --> 01:20:30,195
I've got you!

1200
01:20:52,135 --> 01:20:54,791
- Roy! Help!
- Give me your hand!

1201
01:20:55,035 --> 01:20:57,355
Give me your hand!

1202
01:21:13,355 --> 01:21:15,355
Push! Push!

1203
01:21:52,355 --> 01:21:56,171
So you think Skebbs got hold
of the stamps from Ronnie Welbeck,

1204
01:21:56,195 --> 01:22:00,331
then Abby Morton, in her turn,
ripped off Skebbs for Ronnie?

1205
01:22:00,703 --> 01:22:02,331
Something like that.

1206
01:22:02,355 --> 01:22:04,331
- So where are the stamps now?
- With Abby.

1207
01:22:04,743 --> 01:22:07,331
We've had them scanned
and photocopied, for our records.

1208
01:22:07,355 --> 01:22:10,851
And she's agreed to produce them
as an exhibit, if necessary.

1209
01:22:11,343 --> 01:22:13,331
And Hegarty is certain they're the ones

1210
01:22:13,355 --> 01:22:15,331
that he bought for Lorraine Welbeck?

1211
01:22:15,355 --> 01:22:18,331
Not so certain that he's willing
to testify in a court of law.

1212
01:22:18,355 --> 01:22:20,331
None of this brings us a step closer

1213
01:22:20,355 --> 01:22:22,823
to arresting Ronnie
for Joanna and Lorraine.

1214
01:22:24,863 --> 01:22:28,543
We've got two murder victims here,
Roy. Two dead women.

1215
01:22:29,703 --> 01:22:31,858
Don't want us to
lose sight of that fact.

1216
01:22:32,073 --> 01:22:33,523
I haven't, Ma'am.

1217
01:22:33,548 --> 01:22:35,548
Not for a second.

1218
01:22:36,355 --> 01:22:38,903
'What about putting
more surveillance on her?'

1219
01:22:38,969 --> 01:22:41,330
I suspect that Ronnie Welbeck
will have long flown the coop

1220
01:22:41,355 --> 01:22:42,983
from wherever he's been holed up.

1221
01:22:43,008 --> 01:22:44,994
He'll have seen online that we've
found the remains of his wives.

1222
01:22:45,019 --> 01:22:46,898
He wouldn't risk coming back here.

1223
01:22:47,824 --> 01:22:49,549
Abby'll go and meet him somewhere?

1224
01:22:50,128 --> 01:22:51,332
Put out an "all ports".

1225
01:22:51,682 --> 01:22:54,331
She buys a ticket,
or someone matching her description

1226
01:22:54,355 --> 01:22:57,583
turns up at passport control,
hopefully she'll lead us to him.

1227
01:23:11,468 --> 01:23:12,988
What are you trying to win?

1228
01:23:14,355 --> 01:23:17,331
"A fortnight for two
at a luxury hotel in Mauritius."

1229
01:23:17,355 --> 01:23:19,980
Mum, you don't even have a passport.

1230
01:23:20,004 --> 01:23:21,929
I know, love,

1231
01:23:21,953 --> 01:23:24,355
but you could easily get me one
if I needed it, couldn't you?

1232
01:23:26,355 --> 01:23:30,355
I might be losing my marbles,
but I'm not as daft as I look.

1233
01:23:32,662 --> 01:23:34,638
I'd love you to get a passport.

1234
01:23:34,768 --> 01:23:36,768
I'd love you to join me.

1235
01:23:38,049 --> 01:23:40,049
Where?

1236
01:23:42,241 --> 01:23:44,463
When I get settled somewhere.

1237
01:23:52,035 --> 01:23:54,331
We won't see each other again.

1238
01:23:55,934 --> 01:23:57,438
But it's all right.

1239
01:23:57,795 --> 01:24:00,023
I'd sooner you remembered me as I was.

1240
01:24:03,783 --> 01:24:05,331
Mum...

1241
01:24:05,355 --> 01:24:10,331
If you ever decide to have children,
just remember.

1242
01:24:10,743 --> 01:24:12,703
First, you give 'em roots.

1243
01:24:14,355 --> 01:24:15,823
Then you give 'em wings.

1244
01:24:27,562 --> 01:24:28,983
I love you.

1245
01:24:31,682 --> 01:24:32,842
I know.

1246
01:24:37,795 --> 01:24:41,795
Go on. Go quickly, don't look back.

1247
01:25:10,355 --> 01:25:12,531
So when will I see you again?

1248
01:25:12,555 --> 01:25:14,331
'Soon.'

1249
01:25:14,543 --> 01:25:17,171
How soon is soon?

1250
01:25:17,195 --> 01:25:18,331
Dave?

1251
01:25:18,943 --> 01:25:21,691
I'll be there
to meet you at the airport.

1252
01:25:21,715 --> 01:25:23,331
You got 'em?

1253
01:25:23,703 --> 01:25:26,331
Yeah. I got 'em.

1254
01:25:26,808 --> 01:25:29,808
That's my girl. Safe flight.

1255
01:25:35,355 --> 01:25:38,331
Roy, Abby Morton,
AKA Katherine Jennings,

1256
01:25:38,355 --> 01:25:40,868
just checked in
on a SpeedyJet's flight to Nice,

1257
01:25:40,892 --> 01:25:43,566
- leaves at 3:45.
- Let her run.

1258
01:25:43,590 --> 01:25:45,371
'I need to know she's on the plane,

1259
01:25:45,395 --> 01:25:49,331
'and for Police Judiciaire to pick
up surveillance at the other end.

1260
01:25:49,355 --> 01:25:51,823
'We need her to lead us to Ronnie.'

1261
01:26:38,548 --> 01:26:39,525
Grace.

1262
01:26:39,623 --> 01:26:42,331
'I have information
for you regarding Ronnie Welbeck.'

1263
01:26:42,355 --> 01:26:45,912
He'll be at Lipa Noi Airport
at 11am local time,

1264
01:26:45,936 --> 01:26:50,331
waiting to meet someone
off Bangkok Airways flight 271.

1265
01:26:50,355 --> 01:26:51,943
Who is this?

1266
01:26:53,355 --> 01:26:55,355
Miss Morton?

1267
01:27:06,715 --> 01:27:10,095
Flight 309 connecting
through to Rio de Janeiro.

1268
01:27:10,128 --> 01:27:12,088
Put your passport in there.

1269
01:27:15,983 --> 01:27:17,691
You lost her.

1270
01:27:18,970 --> 01:27:20,238
Yes, Ma'am.

1271
01:27:20,263 --> 01:27:23,696
But Ronnie Welbeck, Dave Nelson,

1272
01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:26,942
is now awaiting extradition
to the UK from Thailand

1273
01:27:26,966 --> 01:27:31,355
on suspicion of the murder
of both Joanna and Lorraine Welbeck.

1274
01:27:31,381 --> 01:27:33,381
_

1275
01:27:40,663 --> 01:27:42,331
And the stamps?

1276
01:27:42,355 --> 01:27:45,331
Well, Hegarty's certain that the
stuff we photocopied is all rubbish.

1277
01:27:45,355 --> 01:27:48,331
And no-one's actually
reported the stamps stolen.

1278
01:27:48,355 --> 01:27:50,331
Well, couldn't the insurance
companies that paid out

1279
01:27:50,355 --> 01:27:52,331
on Ronnie Welbeck's life have a claim?

1280
01:27:52,355 --> 01:27:54,331
Same problem. Chain of title.

1281
01:27:54,355 --> 01:27:56,691
Without Hegarty testifying
that they are the same stamps,

1282
01:27:56,715 --> 01:27:58,503
how are they going to prove it?

1283
01:27:59,035 --> 01:28:00,355
So where do we think she is now?

1284
01:28:01,555 --> 01:28:03,928
Lying on a beach somewhere.

1285
01:28:03,952 --> 01:28:06,331
'Sipping margaritas,

1286
01:28:06,355 --> 01:28:08,355
'and grinning her head off, I suspect.'

1287
01:28:17,601 --> 01:28:19,601
Smart lady.

1288
01:28:21,002 --> 01:28:23,162
Yeah, I certainly wouldn't want
to cross her.

1289
01:28:24,355 --> 01:28:26,331
On the upside,

1290
01:28:26,355 --> 01:28:29,331
I did hear a rumour from Ground Control.

1291
01:28:29,355 --> 01:28:32,331
"Pepe le Pew" has applied
for a transfer.

1292
01:28:33,055 --> 01:28:35,543
That's right. Back to the Met.

1293
01:28:36,741 --> 01:28:38,701
What brought that on?

1294
01:28:40,275 --> 01:28:43,275
I think being here
was pushing him over the edge.

1295
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:05,000
