0:00:06 > 0:00:08Big day for you, Jack.

0:00:08 > 0:00:09Yeah, how so?

0:00:09 > 0:00:13- Doesn't your new partner start today?- Oh, Christ, don't remind me.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17Why, what's the problem?

0:00:17 > 0:00:20You know me, I like working on my own.

0:00:20 > 0:00:24Out with the old, in with the new, I say, mate. Keeps you on your toes.

0:00:24 > 0:00:26Yeah, which is another reason why I hate new partners.

0:00:26 > 0:00:30I don't want some fast-tracked know-it-all telling me

0:00:30 > 0:00:31how I should be doing my job.

0:00:31 > 0:00:35- Hmmm.- I mean, get this, get this.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Right, he's 30 years old and his name is George.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41George? Please.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44My grandad was called George. He was weird.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Bet you a tenner he's got a beard.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49Go on, then. Make it 20.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52OK, OK, but goatees count as beards, right?

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Whatever.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00So, what do you reckon?

0:01:00 > 0:01:04- What is it? - It's a Makihito GT. Sweet, huh?

0:01:04 > 0:01:08Yeah? Looks like a cross between a dildo and a vacuum cleaner.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11Cutting edge of automotive design, that's what it is.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13160 miles per hour top

0:01:13 > 0:01:16and there's still space for the weekly shop.

0:01:16 > 0:01:21Yeah, but is there room for a hair dryer and curling tongs, is what I ask myself.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25I'm telling you, Jack, that's not a hairdresser's car. That's hardcore.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31Yeah, well, you wouldn't catch me dead in a car like this.

0:01:33 > 0:01:36- Hmm, catch you later. - See you later, Naz.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40Hello?

0:01:42 > 0:01:43Oh.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Hi.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48- Hi.- So what do you think?

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Boringly predictable.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52- In what way?- In every way.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56I mean, take the boot, for instance. You know, it's such an obvious sexual statement.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58- Is it? - Yeah, it's a cry for attention.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02"Look at me, aren't I clever?"

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Anyway, listen, I'm actually here on duty,

0:02:05 > 0:02:08I'm not here to buy a car.

0:02:08 > 0:02:14But, hey, why don't we...why don't we go get a drink later on?

0:02:15 > 0:02:17I'll promise not to make you a suspect,

0:02:17 > 0:02:19if you promise not to try and sell me a car.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22What do you say?

0:02:22 > 0:02:24My name is Jack, by the way.

0:02:26 > 0:02:27Georgina.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30D.I. Georgina Dixon.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Your new partner.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Until the post-mortem, we're working on the assumption

0:03:23 > 0:03:26that he died from a blow to the side of the head,

0:03:26 > 0:03:28just below the cheekbone.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31We need some background on the victim - name, address,

0:03:31 > 0:03:34where he worked, are there any possible witnesses?

0:03:34 > 0:03:37His name's Carl Mercer, 29 years old, he's a salesman,

0:03:37 > 0:03:40he's worked here for two years, engaged to Debbie Jackson, the receptionist.

0:03:40 > 0:03:46Her father is head of the service department. Carl's boss in the sales department is Jeffrey Daniels.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49Jeffrey Daniels is waiting to speak to us now.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56People think selling is just about the five Ps

0:03:56 > 0:03:59but, oh, there's more to it than that.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01The five Ps? No?

0:04:01 > 0:04:07Prospect, presentation, pre-closing, placate and pen.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11- Pen?- "Sign here, please, sir."- Oh.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16No, no, no. A good salesman gets under the skin of his prospect.

0:04:16 > 0:04:20He understands him, thinks like him, breathes like him,

0:04:20 > 0:04:24until they are as one. Now Carl knew how to do that.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27That's nubuck.

0:04:27 > 0:04:32Soft as a baby's backside, now available in white.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Very premiership.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Did Carl ever have... - Was there much ...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Sorry.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Was there much rivalry between the sales team?

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Rivalry? Are you kidding? Winning is everything.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49It is the oxygen of a sales team.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51Carl and Emma were like lions in a cage.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Every time one rang the bell, you could see the other one

0:04:54 > 0:04:57- pick up the phone and chase another lead.- The bell?

0:04:57 > 0:05:02We like to...we like to ring a bell when we make a sale. It's...

0:05:02 > 0:05:04BELL RINGS

0:05:04 > 0:05:06It just marks the moment.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- How far did... - Did Carl ever have ...

0:05:08 > 0:05:13- How far did... - Did Carl ever have any clashes with any other colleagues?

0:05:13 > 0:05:15How far did the rivalry go?

0:05:17 > 0:05:23Ooh, now if you're suggesting that Emma killed him

0:05:23 > 0:05:27because he beat her in the monthly revenue targets,

0:05:27 > 0:05:30no, no, no, no, forget it, no.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32It was you that found Carl's body, is that right?

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Yeah, yeah, yeah, when Carl didn't show up for an appointment

0:05:35 > 0:05:38this morning, I took his prospect out for a test drive.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Had to stick some petrol in the car first. I mean, it was completely dry.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43Why would that be?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Oh, we always run them quite low, in case they get nicked.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50Anyway, the prospect, aah, he loved it.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54I had him on the hook for over ten grand's worth of extras.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Carbon brakes, full leather, sat nav, adjustable suspension -

0:05:57 > 0:06:00the works. Then we get back from the test drive,

0:06:00 > 0:06:03he takes one last walk round the car,

0:06:03 > 0:06:07asks me to pop the boot. Boom. Game over.

0:06:07 > 0:06:12There's Carl, stiff as a board, staring up at him.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16After that there was... there was no way back.

0:06:16 > 0:06:21I tried everything to get the pen in his hand, but he wasn't having it.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24He just...walked away.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28Right, well, thank you very much, Mr Daniels.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Thank you.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Right, we need to find out who was the last person to leave this place.

0:06:35 > 0:06:36It was Carl.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39OK. Well, we need to check for possible witnesses

0:06:39 > 0:06:42and find out whether this place uses a security firm.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44They do. I'm waiting for them to call me back.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46CCTV, what's the coverage, did they pick anything up?

0:06:46 > 0:06:51The car was parked outside when Mr Daniels arrived this morning, but out of view of both cameras.

0:06:51 > 0:06:52So the murderer worked here.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Possibly. Or it could just be a coincidence.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57- No such thing.- What?- Coincidence.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01A series of unlikely events that, although accidental, seem to have been planned.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04Why? Because in a murder investigation, they always have been.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Nonsense. You can't dismiss an unlikely, but possible, set of circumstances

0:07:07 > 0:07:09on the basis they've occurred during a murder investigation.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13- Yes, I can.- You CAN, but you'd be discounting a potentially valid line of enquiry

0:07:13 > 0:07:16because of your discrimination against the notion of chance.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18You sound like you've done a course on this.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20As a matter of fact, I have.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Right, let's get back to base for a latte.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28ENGINE CHOKES

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Come on, come on.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Oh, great(!)

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Do you need a lift?

0:07:36 > 0:07:39No, I'm fine, thank you. Thanks.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41OK. I'll see you back at base?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Yeah, yeah, see you back at base. Yeah.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47Thank you. Come on, come on.

0:07:47 > 0:07:48One, two three.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51ENGINE CHOKES

0:07:52 > 0:07:54So, uh, what's he like?

0:07:54 > 0:07:57You know, I'm really disappointed in you, Naz.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00I think it's...really unsportsmanlike to take a bet

0:08:00 > 0:08:02when you already know the outcome.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Stop bitching and cough up.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07Sweet.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14Five ingredients, if you can name them all, lunch is on the house.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17You will lose. You have been warned.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18Dive in.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Mmm.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Apple juice, apple pulp, definitely Granny Smith, Demerara sugar,

0:08:27 > 0:08:30twist of lime and I'd say in a bid to put me off, cinnamon.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33- Ah, wait a minute. You saw. You saw me.- Uh-uh.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Actually, you know, that's... that's quite freaky.

0:08:36 > 0:08:41Listen, have you got any tips of how I can deal with Jack?

0:08:41 > 0:08:45Ah, you gotta feed him, cos if you don't, he can be a right grumpy old sod.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49Like when he's tired. Ah, he's not very good in the mornings.

0:08:49 > 0:08:50OK, that's actually all really useful.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- Bloody car!- Morning, Jack.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Oh, hey, glad to see you found the base.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58I waited for you at the station, until they told me

0:08:58 > 0:09:02they'd hardly seen you in two years and where to find you.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04- Well, too many cops - can't think. - Makes perfect sense.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Well, as you know, as a uniformed officer,

0:09:06 > 0:09:0960% leg work, right, 40% paperwork.

0:09:09 > 0:09:12But in a murder investigation,

0:09:12 > 0:09:16it's 50% instinct, 22% thinking,

0:09:16 > 0:09:1925% paperwork.

0:09:19 > 0:09:21Which makes 97%.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24And 3%...

0:09:25 > 0:09:26Yeah?

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Morning, Tony. The usual please, mate.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Coming right up.

0:09:33 > 0:09:37- Oh, hi, Naz.- Jack? - Meet my new partner, Georgina.- Hi.

0:09:37 > 0:09:43- We've met. The Y-chromosome sampling course?- You guys have met?

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Oh my god, Nazza, right? Of course! Yeah, hi.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50- How did the exam go?- A. You?

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- A.- Wow, nice one.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56Speaking of forensics, have we got a time of death?

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Between seven and nine last night.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00How about a murder weapon?

0:10:00 > 0:10:03No, but we've got three sets of prints off the inside of the boot lid.

0:10:03 > 0:10:10Don't tell me. Weird Jeff, the kid who polishes the cars and the punter?

0:10:10 > 0:10:12- Correct.- How did you know that? - Lucky guess.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14- Experience.- I told him.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17- Right. Have you eaten?- No, I haven't.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20- Here you go.- Oh, thank you, Tony.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26Perfect. So, Debbie Jackson, the fiancee, lives five minutes away with her dad, Dave.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30Let's go. Thanks for the smoothie. You owe me lunch.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31HE LAUGHS

0:10:31 > 0:10:33- See you.- Bye.

0:10:33 > 0:10:37Do you know, I specifically asked for a male partner this time

0:10:37 > 0:10:39and they give me her!

0:10:39 > 0:10:41What have I done to deserve this?

0:10:44 > 0:10:47What, indeed. What, indeed.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52Naz seems pretty cool.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Yeah, he's OK for a geek.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56- He's not a geek.- He is.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00He plays computer games over the internet with his saddo friends, wearing headphones.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Well, that's just your generation's opinions of gamers.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04It's how he chooses to unwind.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Yeah, my generation says he needs to get out more and get laid.

0:11:06 > 0:11:10I'm sure Naz doesn't have any problems in that area.

0:11:10 > 0:11:14- Shall we go in my car?- Why?

0:11:14 > 0:11:20- Is this going to be OK? - Yeah, it'll be fine. Hop in.- OK.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31It's OK, it's OK! It's just a misfire.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33It's probably just a dodgy spark plug.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36- This thing has never, ever broken down.- Mm-hm?- Never.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38- Sure.- Ever.- Uh-huh.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40- It's built like a tank. - Handles like it.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44Yeah, this thing will still be going long after your tin can has been turned into a fridge.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48I don't know about that. That tin can of mine has 155 brake horse power

0:11:48 > 0:11:51and does 0-60 in 6.5 seconds, which is actually quite fast.

0:11:52 > 0:11:56- Does this thing actually do 60? - Yes, in great comfort and style.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05So you transferred in from Reading, right?

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Yup. My very first day here.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10So what made you want to become a cop?

0:12:10 > 0:12:11It's in the blood.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14My dad's a cop, both my uncles, one of my aunts, two of my cousins.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Hmm. Bet you never shop-lifted as a kid.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20I did, actually. DOORBELL RINGS

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Little rebellious phase when I was about eight.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25- What for? Sweets?- No, hamsters.

0:12:25 > 0:12:26Hamsters?

0:12:26 > 0:12:28None of them survived.

0:12:28 > 0:12:29Right.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35- Hi.- DIs Dixon and Armstrong, we'd like to have a quick word.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38Ginger nuts, digestives.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41So, how long have you been working...

0:12:41 > 0:12:44DOG GROWLS

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Don't worry about Bruno.

0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Hello, boy.- He's a big old softie.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51I'd put him in the kitchen, but he doesn't like being on his own.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53He doesn't like being on his own, does he?

0:12:53 > 0:12:57He doesn't like it, do you?

0:12:57 > 0:13:00He scratches the door.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Yeah, he's a big scratcher.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05So, how long have you worked there, Mr Jackson?

0:13:05 > 0:13:10Oh, yes, I've been service manager for about six years

0:13:10 > 0:13:14and I've been there the best part of 20.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17Debs has been receptionist for what is it, love? Couple of years?

0:13:17 > 0:13:20Oh, well, let's see, it was after my birthday,

0:13:20 > 0:13:23- cos I was in Crete for that, wasn't I?- Yeah.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26So it would have been March-ish. Or April.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Roughly's fine. - No, hang on, it was May. May.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Excuse me. Sorry, I've been crying.

0:13:34 > 0:13:39SHE BLOWS HER NOSE LOUDLY AND INTERMINABLY

0:13:44 > 0:13:45They got engaged...

0:13:45 > 0:13:49SHE BLOWS HER NOSE AGAIN

0:13:53 > 0:13:54They got engaged...

0:13:54 > 0:13:59SHE BLOWS HER NOSE

0:14:01 > 0:14:03- Sorry.- They got engaged a couple of months back.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06We had the reception booked and everything.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10- Did you call them about the refund? - Er, no, no.- Well, you should.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13- Not yet.- They should give a refund, shouldn't they?

0:14:13 > 0:14:15Um, yes, possibly. It depends.

0:14:17 > 0:14:22It's possible that Carl could have been killed by somebody that he already knew.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Are you aware of anyone who may have had a grudge against him?- No.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28No, he was a good lad.

0:14:28 > 0:14:32Everyone liked Carl, didn't they, love?

0:14:32 > 0:14:34- Yeah.- Did Carl have any ex-girlfriends, at all?

0:14:34 > 0:14:36No, thank you.

0:14:37 > 0:14:38None, at all, ever?

0:14:38 > 0:14:40No.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44Well, not proper girlfriends. I mean, not ones that he loved,

0:14:44 > 0:14:47- not properly, anyway. - Are you sure about that?

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Nobody who could have been a bit jealous?

0:14:49 > 0:14:54No, because he never, ever saw or even spoke to any of his exes, ever.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58Right. What about you, Debbie?

0:14:58 > 0:15:02Any exes who may have been a bit upset that you were marrying Carl?

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Mr Jackson, why don't you and DI Armstrong pop out and give us a bit of girl time?

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Good idea.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19When Debbie got together with Carl,

0:15:19 > 0:15:22she'd just finished with a lad called Ryan.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26One of my mechanics. He worshipped her.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30Started pestering her 20 times a night, calling her at work,

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- begging to see her.- What did she do?

0:15:33 > 0:15:37Well, she caved in, agreed to meet him for a drink.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40Tried to tell him it was over but he wasn't having it.

0:15:40 > 0:15:41Did he get violent?

0:15:44 > 0:15:47No. Not as such.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50But he lost his rag.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54He's got a bit of a temper on him, has Ryan.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56What did you do?

0:15:57 > 0:16:01Well, I told him he'd better watch out or I'd teach him some manners

0:16:01 > 0:16:03and he'd be out of a job.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Not much I could do, in reality.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Management said it was a personal matter.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16You any good with Mercs?

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Try her now.- Yeah.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- Oh, yes!- There you go. It was a loose spark plug lead.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Yeah, I thought it was something like that,

0:16:29 > 0:16:32but, you know, it's always good to have a second opinion.

0:16:32 > 0:16:36Great motors, these. Run like clockwork.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40- I've known one do 300-400,000 miles without missing a beat. - Yeah? Nice one.

0:16:42 > 0:16:47Well, thank you for talking to us, especially at this difficult time.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51We'll be in touch.

0:16:51 > 0:16:52Cheers.

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Bye.

0:16:54 > 0:16:55Bye.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58- What were you doing?- I'm sorry?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01Well, getting a potential suspect to fix your car.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05- Don't they teach you anything on these courses that you do?- Yeah.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08What? When you're dealing with a potential suspect,

0:17:08 > 0:17:11if you give them something routine and familiar to do, they open up

0:17:11 > 0:17:14in a way that they wouldn't in a more formal interview situation.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16They'll tell you things.

0:17:16 > 0:17:20Debbie opened up to me. Seven pages of notes from Debbie, so...

0:17:20 > 0:17:23- All right, OK. Did she tell you about her mum? - What about her mum?

0:17:23 > 0:17:26That her and Dave divorced five years ago.

0:17:26 > 0:17:27It's not relevant.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30- Well, OK, did she talk about Ryan? - Of course.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33About the midnight phone calls after she called it off?

0:17:33 > 0:17:34Obviously.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Yeah? Did she tell you about Ryan's violent temper?

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Ah, she didn't tell you that, did she?

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Not in so many words, no.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Yeah. Running like a dream now.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50What is it with you and dogs? Did one bite you?

0:17:50 > 0:17:53No, no, I just had a bit of an incident when I was a child.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Er, one tried to...

0:17:55 > 0:17:58It was a bit of a mess, I was wearing shorts.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23PHONE VIBRATES

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Shit! It's my new partner.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31I'm going to have to take this, boys, I'm really sorry.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Just, shush for a second .

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- Hello?- 'Hi, it's me.'

0:18:35 > 0:18:37Listen, I'm just reading Reddingtons.

0:18:37 > 0:18:42- Yeah? Any good?- 'No, The Investigator's Manual, Reddingtons.'

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Anyway, it's talking about the dangers of narrowing the scope of the investigation at the outset

0:18:46 > 0:18:50'because the immediate set of circumstances dictate an obvious set of parameters,

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- 'which got me thinking.'- Yeah?

0:18:52 > 0:18:56So, I'm not saying we should discount any of the avenues we're currently exploring,

0:18:56 > 0:19:01'but maybe we should think more laterally, until we have something a bit more concrete.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04- 'Are you actually listening to me?' - Yeah.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07OK. Yeah, definitely. That sounds good.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08What was that?

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- What was what?- 'That noise.'

0:19:12 > 0:19:14What noise? I didn't hear anything.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Good night, Jack.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Dick!

0:19:22 > 0:19:26He-he! Next game, seven-card stud.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33Why are we coming this way? We're here to see the saleswoman, aren't we?

0:19:33 > 0:19:38Ryan Kinnock works here. Let's turn the screw -

0:19:38 > 0:19:40make him think that the net's closing in.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55I want to intimidate him. Feel the eyes.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56WOLF WHISTLE

0:20:02 > 0:20:04It's a dog-eat-dog world.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06If a bloke walks through that door,

0:20:06 > 0:20:10it's my job to get a pen in his hand and his signature on the contract,

0:20:10 > 0:20:13any way I can. If I don't,

0:20:13 > 0:20:18there's another half dozen car dealers within gobbing distance of this place who will.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21You make it sound like you don't have any female customers.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25I don't. Do you really think women would buy a car off me?

0:20:29 > 0:20:32Was Carl as aggressive as you?

0:20:32 > 0:20:37She means as a salesman...woman. Sorry.

0:20:37 > 0:20:42More. He was ruthless. He nailed them. They didn't stand a chance.

0:20:42 > 0:20:46I've seen him sell a 4x4 to a bloke who walked in here

0:20:46 > 0:20:47wanting a sports car.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49SHE LAUGHS

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Never tell him to his face, of course.

0:20:51 > 0:20:56He was a cocky little shit. He didn't need me boosting his ego.

0:20:56 > 0:21:00Did he ever upset anyone by selling them something they didn't want?

0:21:00 > 0:21:06No. Look, at the end of the day, the punters are free to walk away.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10It's their own decision. I don't think a customer whacked him over the head

0:21:10 > 0:21:13because he sold him a car they didn't want, if that's what you mean.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Why do you say "whacked him over the head?"

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Dunno. Figure of speech?

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Did you ever have a physical relationship with Carl?

0:21:23 > 0:21:25What's that got to do with anything?

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Just answer the question, please.

0:21:27 > 0:21:32Yes. But that's all it was, physical. It only happened once.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34He wasn't my type.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36And what is your type?

0:21:37 > 0:21:42I mean... I mean, were you HIS type?

0:21:42 > 0:21:46Wow. Thank you, I think we've got everything we need.

0:21:46 > 0:21:52Please. Just call me if you need anything else.

0:21:55 > 0:22:00Emma. Nice name... Thank you.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04Thank you.

0:22:16 > 0:22:17What?

0:22:18 > 0:22:22- What's wrong?- You know exactly.

0:22:22 > 0:22:25OK, that may have seemed like I was flirting, but actually,

0:22:25 > 0:22:29out here in the real world, that is called tactical questioning.

0:22:29 > 0:22:30Rubbish!

0:22:30 > 0:22:31It is!

0:22:31 > 0:22:34You were lapping it up, you were encouraging her.

0:22:34 > 0:22:35I was not!

0:22:35 > 0:22:36Please don't slam...

0:22:43 > 0:22:46- What's your problem? - I don't have a problem.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48Please don't tell me that this is normal.

0:22:48 > 0:22:50- What?- Being uptight.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53I am not uptight! You were just behaving inappropriately with a potential suspect!

0:22:53 > 0:22:54- I was not!- You were!

0:22:54 > 0:22:57All right, listen, OK, it's not just that,

0:22:57 > 0:23:00it's just you're very stressful to be around.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02Am I?

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Yes, a little.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Sorry.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18That's been mentioned before.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Right.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34Well, hey, you know, now we're here we...

0:23:34 > 0:23:37We might as well interview the MD.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41Elaine McGovern. She's not here today, she won't be back till tomorrow.

0:23:41 > 0:23:45- We could always interview Ryan. - I think we should hold back on Ryan.

0:23:45 > 0:23:49Why? He'll be expecting us to talk to him, and if we think he's hiding something,

0:23:49 > 0:23:52- we can always go and interview him again.- OK, let's do that. OK.

0:23:52 > 0:23:53OK.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58Pretty girl with a torque wrench. What's wrong with that?

0:23:58 > 0:23:59Makes total sense to me.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01It's offensive.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03- To who?- Well, to mechanics.

0:24:03 > 0:24:08It's actually a highly skilled job and she clearly doesn't know one end of a torque wrench from the other.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Yeah, well, she can fix my car any day.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11Your car? She might have to.

0:24:15 > 0:24:16What do you want?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Have a seat, please, Ryan.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23Did you go out with Debbie?

0:24:23 > 0:24:26I had nothing to do with Carl's murder, if that's what you think.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28We're not suggesting you did, Ryan,

0:24:28 > 0:24:31but to find Carl's killer, we need to talk to everybody connected with him.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35- You think I did it, don't you? - Just answer the question.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Yeah, I went out with her.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40And when did it finish?

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Don't know, nine months ago.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45- Who finished it?- She did.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49- How did that make you feel, Ryan? - What are you, a shrink or something?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51You were still in love with her, weren't you?

0:24:53 > 0:24:55I don't know. Look, I liked her, yeah.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Did you ask her to go out with you again?

0:24:58 > 0:25:02We spoke a few times. She said she still had feelings for me.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05- But she was already going out with Carl?- Yeah.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Did you resent Carl for going out with her?

0:25:07 > 0:25:10No, I resented Carl cos he was a prat.

0:25:10 > 0:25:16- In what way?- In every way. Always mouthing off. Thought he was better than the rest of us.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Yeah? Did the other mechanics feel that way about him?

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Yeah, pretty much.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24What did you think when Carl and Debbie got engaged?

0:25:25 > 0:25:28Don't know what she saw in him. He shagged anything that moved.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30So he was unfaithful to her?

0:25:30 > 0:25:32I don't know, probably.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Did you try to talk Debbie out of marrying him?

0:25:36 > 0:25:40No. Look, I don't have feelings for her any more.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42She can do what she likes.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46OK. Where were you between seven and nine last night?

0:26:13 > 0:26:16I can get you behind the wheel for less than 250 a month.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20Oh, no, I'm... I'm not really in the market.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23- To be honest, a lot of the men that buy these cars don't quite measure up.- Yeah?

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Wannabes. It's a real man's car, this.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33Hop in.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38I'm not really into modern cars.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Go on, get in.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43OK.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Start her up.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51I really shouldn't...

0:26:51 > 0:26:55Go ahead. It's the red button on the dash.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56OK.

0:26:56 > 0:26:57CAR HORN SOUNDS

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Ooh? Wow.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06There you go, you see. It just kinda works with some men.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11Really suits you, you know. What are you driving at the moment?

0:27:11 > 0:27:16Erm. Erm, well, just that old thing.

0:27:16 > 0:27:17Really?

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Yeah.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23Tell you what, why don't you take her out for a quick spin?

0:27:25 > 0:27:26Well...

0:27:28 > 0:27:32Well, maybe, maybe some other time.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36I'm on duty now and I really should get back.

0:27:36 > 0:27:37Thank you.

0:27:38 > 0:27:39Yeah.

0:27:43 > 0:27:44Call me.

0:27:44 > 0:27:45Yeah.

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Yeah, she was just... showing me the...

0:27:52 > 0:27:56It's not really my thing, but...

0:27:56 > 0:27:59So, do you want to take her for a spin?

0:28:10 > 0:28:14I mean, I like it, but... I don't know.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17OK, what for you is the most important function in a car?

0:28:17 > 0:28:19No, no, I'm sorry, it's not that simple.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22- It really is.- No. The relationship a man has with his car

0:28:22 > 0:28:25is the same relationship as he has with his girlfriend.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28- Do you have any idea how sad that sounds?- No, it's true.

0:28:28 > 0:28:29I mean, when you choose a boyfriend,

0:28:29 > 0:28:33do you make a checklist of important functions?

0:28:33 > 0:28:36Well, anyway, make it as complicated as you want,

0:28:36 > 0:28:39but the bottom line is, that car's pretty quick for a 4x4

0:28:39 > 0:28:41- and it comes with good extras.- Yeah.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44She says she can get it for me for 250 a month.

0:28:44 > 0:28:48Yeah, plus a deposit and a balloon, right?

0:28:48 > 0:28:50A balloon?

0:28:50 > 0:28:52Yeah, you know, you pay a deposit. Say ten grand or so...

0:28:52 > 0:28:54Ten grand!

0:28:54 > 0:28:55And then you have 36 monthly instalments

0:28:55 > 0:28:58and then you pay off the balance with a balloon payment.

0:28:58 > 0:29:00Jesus, that's going to cost me a fortune!

0:29:00 > 0:29:03If you don't want to pay off the balloon at the end, you just give back the car.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08We're missing something.

0:29:08 > 0:29:10Yeah, some food, I'm starving.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12It's just...it's too easy.

0:29:12 > 0:29:13Just the way I like it.

0:29:13 > 0:29:17There was no passion with Ryan, you know.

0:29:17 > 0:29:20I believed him when he said he was over Debbie.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Maybe. Or maybe he was lying.

0:29:23 > 0:29:25Look, I don't think he was.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27- OK, who do you think did it? - I don't know.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30I don't think we will until we find the murder weapon.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33There wasn't one. Post-mortem result's in.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35He wasn't killed by a blow to the head.

0:29:35 > 0:29:37- He was poisoned.- Poisoned?

0:29:37 > 0:29:40Carbon monoxide fumes.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42MUSIC: "Bizarre Love Triangle" by New Order

0:29:42 > 0:29:45All I'm saying is, a modern car can do everything an old car can do...

0:29:45 > 0:29:48- Classic car. - Classic car can do, but better.

0:29:48 > 0:29:49Jesus, do you have to drive so fast?

0:29:51 > 0:29:53- See, your car couldn't have done that.- Done what?

0:29:53 > 0:29:58- Taken that corner like that. - Why would anybody in their right minds take a corner like that?

0:29:58 > 0:30:00- I've done the course. - What course is that?

0:30:00 > 0:30:02The "scare the shit out of my new partner" course?

0:30:02 > 0:30:06- The Police Defensive Driving Course. - What's defensive about driving like this?

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Well, do the course and you'll find out.

0:30:10 > 0:30:14# Every time I think of you

0:30:14 > 0:30:17# I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue

0:30:17 > 0:30:19# It's no problem of mine

0:30:19 > 0:30:21# But it's a problem I find

0:30:21 > 0:30:26# Living a life that I can't leave behind. #

0:30:28 > 0:30:32- We missed it the first time but see that little hole?- Yeah.

0:30:32 > 0:30:36It drains the boot if there's a leak or if any liquid gets spilt.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39Normally it would have a rubber bung in it. But it didn't.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42- And the bung is right above the exhaust?- Yeah.

0:30:42 > 0:30:45Excuse me, excuse me, sorry, can I please have a look?

0:30:47 > 0:30:49- Yeah.- Thank you, right.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53Yeah, the bung's right above the exhaust.

0:30:53 > 0:30:58- Exactly. So the gas fumes could have blown straight in.- Hmm.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00And Carl's head was here, right next to the hole.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03He'd have breathed in the raw fumes whilst lying there unconscious.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07He'd have been dead in five minutes.

0:31:07 > 0:31:09So the car had been running?

0:31:09 > 0:31:12That's why it was out of petrol when Jeff went to take it on a test drive.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16Only someone who knows cars would know about the bung.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18Hello, hello, hello! I just wondered how we're getting on.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22- Fine, thank you.- Good, good. Only your colleagues at HQ informed me

0:31:22 > 0:31:25that you got everything you need from the car.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27We haven't quite finished.

0:31:27 > 0:31:31Right, OK, you see, only I've got a prospect on the horizon.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Now, he wanted an SLK, which we haven't got.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37But I think I've steered him, excuse the pun, towards one of these.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40I say one of these, this is actually the only one of these that we've got,

0:31:40 > 0:31:44the Makihito GT, if you catch my drift.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Now, I haven't mentioned the incident,

0:31:47 > 0:31:49but then again who needs to know, eh?

0:31:49 > 0:31:52It's not as if it's going to show up on the service record.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54So I just wondered when we could have the car back.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57At least for a test drive, you know?

0:31:59 > 0:32:03Carl read people. Soon as they walked in that door.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05It's what made him such a good salesman.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08He just, he instinctively knew what they were after.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10No, he'll be missed.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12By everyone?

0:32:12 > 0:32:13What do you mean?

0:32:13 > 0:32:17Well, Carl seems to have rubbed a lot of people up the wrong way.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19It was nothing more than the usual petty rivalry.

0:32:19 > 0:32:23That's the same as any sales-driven company.

0:32:23 > 0:32:25But it was more than that.

0:32:25 > 0:32:28There was an us and them culture between the sales and the service departments.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31That's the same at every dealership I've worked at.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34In general, I would say this is an unusually harmonious company.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41What?

0:32:41 > 0:32:42Nothing.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54What about Ryan? He had reason to hate Carl, didn't he?

0:32:54 > 0:32:57If you're suggesting Ryan killed Carl, that's ridiculous!

0:32:59 > 0:33:04I mean, he may not be much of a charmer, but he's not a killer.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07OK, thank you very much.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Thank you.

0:33:26 > 0:33:30God, she's weird. Impossible to read, completely emotionless.

0:33:30 > 0:33:33- It's the botox. - She's had botox?

0:33:33 > 0:33:38It's made her face completely expressionless. Look.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41Happy face.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43Sad face.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45Hmm, you wouldn't want to play her at poker.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47You can still read the eyes though.

0:33:47 > 0:33:52Yeah, she's hiding something. Who she's shagging.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02What do you think?

0:34:02 > 0:34:04- It's a beast.- Yeah.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07Hey. We need to talk. In private.

0:34:07 > 0:34:12I may have some important information. Come with me.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16Jack?

0:34:16 > 0:34:17- Er...- You coming?

0:34:17 > 0:34:19Actually, he's all yours.

0:34:19 > 0:34:24I've got some things that I need to check with...

0:34:24 > 0:34:25Fine!

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Ready?

0:34:36 > 0:34:38Always.

0:34:38 > 0:34:39Buckle up.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Er, close the door. Walls have ears.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54Best if no one overhears what I've got to say.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Right then, I'll be honest. I do a lot of reading.

0:35:03 > 0:35:07Murder mysteries. And I like to watch all the detective series on the telly.

0:35:07 > 0:35:08It's sort of my thing.

0:35:08 > 0:35:12I mean, if I wasn't a sales director, I'd be one of you lot.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15I mean, seriously. It's just... well, it's a gift.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17- Really?- Yeah.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20And... I know who did it.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24So who was it, then?

0:35:24 > 0:35:26It's the window cleaner.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29- The window cleaner?- Yeah.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31And why do you think it was him?

0:35:31 > 0:35:35There's just something about him. I've always thought so.

0:35:35 > 0:35:39Right. So no hard evidence then?

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Not as such, no, no.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44You didn't see him do it?

0:35:44 > 0:35:46No, I...

0:35:46 > 0:35:49- He didn't confess to you?- No. But then he's not been in for a while.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53Which is a bit odd, because he normally comes once a week.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56Right. I suppose he could be on holiday?

0:36:01 > 0:36:03Maybe...

0:36:07 > 0:36:10So tell me, what are the engine options on this?

0:36:10 > 0:36:13Right. Well you've got three basic options. The 2.2 diesel

0:36:13 > 0:36:16which is a nice compromise if you're looking for good performance and great economy.

0:36:16 > 0:36:20The 2.5 petrol, more of a ladies' option. Looks pretty but it's not so quick.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23And what I like to call the wildcat, three litre turbo.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26Fast enough to rip the wig off a game show host.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28You fancy a spin?

0:36:39 > 0:36:40Whoa.

0:36:55 > 0:36:58So, want to run through the specs?

0:36:58 > 0:37:00Or shall we just cut to the chase?

0:37:01 > 0:37:04Can I have a look at the specs?

0:37:04 > 0:37:06Fine.

0:37:06 > 0:37:09There's dual zone climate control here and here.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12- Oh, yeah.- Sat nav, Bluetooth hands free.

0:37:12 > 0:37:15- Great.- Intelligent cruise control, auto dipping mirrors

0:37:15 > 0:37:18and as for the gear shift.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20Please can I have a drive?

0:37:20 > 0:37:22Sure.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34So, Mr Policeman, show me what you can do.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43- I just think I forgot... - Where are you going?

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Great wheels. Tungsten lights.

0:37:51 > 0:37:52What are you doing?

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Very spacious.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03It's the best of its class.

0:38:03 > 0:38:07Listen, do you mind if we drive back to the showroom now?

0:38:07 > 0:38:10Because, you know, I've got an investigation to get on with,

0:38:10 > 0:38:11a man's died, it's very tragic.

0:38:11 > 0:38:16Fine, show me how you drive this thing.

0:38:16 > 0:38:17OK.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Right yeah, how do you turn it on again?

0:38:21 > 0:38:25Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's right, that's right.

0:38:34 > 0:38:35Whoa.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38And the best bit, four way electric seats.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42Oh? Right, yeah, it's...

0:38:42 > 0:38:45It's very...

0:38:46 > 0:38:49So, how do you like the handling?

0:38:58 > 0:39:01Very serious offence, assaulting a police officer.

0:39:01 > 0:39:02It's up to four years in prison.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05Come on.

0:39:07 > 0:39:11Thank you.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14I'll be in the car, lover boy.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18I had it under control, you know!!

0:39:18 > 0:39:21For your information, the maximum sentence

0:39:21 > 0:39:26for assaulting a police officer is six months, not four years.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28Four years sounds better.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37- Yeah, but what happened? - I don't know, I panicked.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40Things have become blurred, I couldn't tell whether she wanted

0:39:40 > 0:39:42to get it on with me or she just wanted to sell me the car.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44Maybe she wanted to do both?

0:39:44 > 0:39:46Yeah, but then if I got it on with her,

0:39:46 > 0:39:48would that mean that I'd have to buy the car?

0:39:48 > 0:39:50It could have got messy, she was very aggressive.

0:39:50 > 0:39:53Hey!

0:39:53 > 0:39:54Hi.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57Please tell me that's recycling.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59- Reading.- I don't do homework.

0:39:59 > 0:40:01- This is fun.- Yeah? What is it?

0:40:01 > 0:40:03- Mobile phone records.- Whose are they?

0:40:03 > 0:40:06- Everyone we've interviewed. - Yeah, well, good luck with that.

0:40:06 > 0:40:07No, no, you take those, I'll take these.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Let me know if you find anything. See you, Tony!

0:40:10 > 0:40:13See you.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21# You're a foxy lady

0:40:21 > 0:40:23# And I'm a foxy guy

0:40:23 > 0:40:27# When I look into your eyes

0:40:27 > 0:40:32# It makes me want to cry

0:40:32 > 0:40:35# Your daddy...

0:40:35 > 0:40:38# Your daddy, your daddy works the night shift...

0:40:38 > 0:40:42# Your daddy works the night shift... #

0:40:42 > 0:40:44PHONE VIBRATES

0:40:44 > 0:40:48Oh, for Christ's sake!

0:40:52 > 0:40:56- Yeah, what's up? - How's it going?- Yes...

0:40:56 > 0:40:58It's going fine.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Are you actually doing any work?

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Yeah, I got the records right here,

0:41:02 > 0:41:04I've been looking at numbers all night!

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Call me if you find anything.

0:41:15 > 0:41:18# You're a foxy lady

0:41:18 > 0:41:21# And I'm a foxy guy

0:41:21 > 0:41:24# When I look into your eyes

0:41:24 > 0:41:27# It makes me want to cry

0:41:29 > 0:41:32# Your daddy's on the night shift

0:41:32 > 0:41:35# Your mama's a nurse

0:41:35 > 0:41:37# Now we're alone together

0:41:37 > 0:41:42# Let me look inside your purse... #

0:42:15 > 0:42:18PHONE VIBRATES

0:42:21 > 0:42:25- What?- I got something. Carl was shagging his boss.

0:42:25 > 0:42:28Botox lady? No way.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31Yeah, there's a series of text messages from Carl to her

0:42:31 > 0:42:33with the last one on the night he died.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37"Working L8 2nite. How about you?"

0:42:37 > 0:42:40Why can't people speak English when they're writing text messages?

0:42:40 > 0:42:44I mean does it seriously take longer to write L-A-T-E than it does

0:42:44 > 0:42:47to write L and then shift to the letter 8?

0:42:47 > 0:42:50When you've finished your rant can you tell me what she replied.

0:42:50 > 0:42:56"S-F-E 2 E."

0:42:56 > 0:42:59Sfetuey?

0:42:59 > 0:43:01Smiling from ear to ear.

0:43:01 > 0:43:02How do you know this shit?

0:43:02 > 0:43:04So what do you think it means?

0:43:04 > 0:43:07It means she's a liar. A straight-faced liar come to that.

0:43:07 > 0:43:10I think we should confront her and see what she does.

0:43:10 > 0:43:13Nice work. Call me if you get anything else.

0:43:13 > 0:43:14Forget it, I'm going to bed.

0:43:14 > 0:43:16Part timer.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26Look, I'm sorry. I'm already late for a meeting.

0:43:26 > 0:43:28We need to ask you a question.

0:43:28 > 0:43:31But before we ask you, I have to let you know that wasting police time

0:43:31 > 0:43:33is punishable by up to four years in prison.

0:43:33 > 0:43:40Now, did you have sex with Carl on the night before he died?

0:43:40 > 0:43:42How do you know that?

0:43:42 > 0:43:44Because we're policemen. Women...

0:43:44 > 0:43:48- Officers.- Officers. That's how.

0:43:48 > 0:43:54Look I'm... I'm sorry I didn't tell you

0:43:54 > 0:43:56because I really didn't think it was relevant.

0:43:56 > 0:44:00You stayed late to have intimate relations with Carl less than an hour before he died.

0:44:00 > 0:44:01How can that not be relevant?

0:44:01 > 0:44:04I'm sorry.

0:44:04 > 0:44:05So let's start at the beginning.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07When did you start having sex with Carl?

0:44:09 > 0:44:13- It's about a month ago. - When he was still engaged to Debbie?

0:44:13 > 0:44:14Does any of this have to get out?

0:44:14 > 0:44:18- Depends on whether we still think you're lying. - I promise you I'm not.

0:44:18 > 0:44:20How many times did you have sex with him?

0:44:20 > 0:44:22I don't know.

0:44:24 > 0:44:28I don't know, maybe four or five times.

0:44:28 > 0:44:33But look, I was flattered and it was just sex.

0:44:33 > 0:44:36And what happened the night he died?

0:44:36 > 0:44:41Well, we waited until everyone else had left and then we...

0:44:41 > 0:44:45..went to my office and we, we had sex but then I left.

0:44:45 > 0:44:49- With him?- No, no, we went separately, we agreed to leave separately.

0:44:49 > 0:44:53I left first. And then that was that.

0:44:53 > 0:44:59And then... and then the next morning, Jeff found him

0:44:59 > 0:45:03and all hell broke loose.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06What?

0:45:06 > 0:45:10Nothing. Nothing.

0:45:12 > 0:45:15Come on.

0:45:20 > 0:45:21Four years?

0:45:21 > 0:45:23You're right, it does sound better.

0:45:36 > 0:45:40- I still think we're missing something.- Yeah, coffee.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42No, Carl was engaged to Debbie, but he was being unfaithful to her.

0:45:42 > 0:45:46- Men, eh?- Which means that Ryan wasn't the only one with a motive.

0:45:46 > 0:45:49I'll see you at Tony's, OK?

0:45:50 > 0:45:53You know what, I think I can crack this case.

0:45:53 > 0:45:55- Really?- Yeah.

0:45:55 > 0:45:57OK, I'll give you till four, then I'm arresting Ryan.

0:45:57 > 0:45:59Fine.

0:45:59 > 0:46:01See you later.

0:46:04 > 0:46:08Hey, Joey. Are we on for tonight or what?

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Yeah.

0:47:17 > 0:47:20This could all end in crippling humiliation.

0:47:20 > 0:47:23- Yeah, but you're probably used to that by now.- Ha, ha.

0:47:31 > 0:47:33Hello again.

0:47:33 > 0:47:35Who buys this tat?

0:47:35 > 0:47:39Presumably people who want to evoke fond holiday memories.

0:47:39 > 0:47:41What, a stuffed leprechaun? What does that evoke

0:47:41 > 0:47:45apart from long hours stuck in some hellhole of an airport

0:47:45 > 0:47:48with nothing to buy but crap like this?

0:47:48 > 0:47:50Sorry about that, it was Debbie. She's at the hotel,

0:47:50 > 0:47:53trying to get the money back on the reception.

0:47:53 > 0:47:57You should have got it insured. They cover most eventualities, nowadays.

0:47:58 > 0:47:59Mr Jackson...

0:48:02 > 0:48:05We'd like to talk to you about your affair with Elaine McGovern.

0:48:05 > 0:48:08I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10I'm afraid it was Bruno who gave you away.

0:48:13 > 0:48:17Well, I'm happy to help with your enquiries

0:48:17 > 0:48:20but if you're going to waste my time, forget it.

0:48:20 > 0:48:22Sit down, Mr Jackson.

0:48:26 > 0:48:33SQUEAKING

0:48:33 > 0:48:34It's Bruno's.

0:48:34 > 0:48:35Oh.

0:48:42 > 0:48:46You mentioned that Bruno doesn't like being left in a room on his own

0:48:46 > 0:48:48and if he is, he'll often scratch the door,

0:48:48 > 0:48:52but what I couldn't figure out was why Elaine McGovern's office door

0:48:52 > 0:48:55- had scratch marks on the outside of it.- This is ridiculous.

0:48:55 > 0:48:59Any more of this and I'm going to have to make a complaint about you.

0:48:59 > 0:49:03The only thing that I could come up with is that you and her were inside

0:49:03 > 0:49:05the office and you didn't want the dog in the room for some reason.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07Well, that's quite possible.

0:49:07 > 0:49:11As head of the service department, I would have meetings with Elaine.

0:49:11 > 0:49:13Without the dog.

0:49:13 > 0:49:18Oh? So it's not that you were having sex with her after hours.

0:49:20 > 0:49:22I'm not going to dignify that with an answer.

0:49:22 > 0:49:24Fair enough.

0:49:24 > 0:49:27So how was Dublin?

0:49:27 > 0:49:31We've just been admiring your souvenirs.

0:49:31 > 0:49:34- Very nice, thank you. - And who did you go with?

0:49:34 > 0:49:37None of your business.

0:49:37 > 0:49:40Well, look, we can check the airline passenger records with a phone call,

0:49:40 > 0:49:43but it would just be quicker if you told us.

0:49:46 > 0:49:50All right, yes, you are right,

0:49:50 > 0:49:53we did have a brief fling.

0:49:53 > 0:49:59We went out a few times and we went to Dublin for the weekend.

0:50:01 > 0:50:07But she finished it about a month ago. And that is it.

0:50:07 > 0:50:09And did you know that she was sleeping with Carl?

0:50:11 > 0:50:12You did.

0:50:12 > 0:50:16Of course, because you caught them having sex in her office

0:50:16 > 0:50:19on the night that he died, actually.

0:50:19 > 0:50:22That must have been awful,

0:50:22 > 0:50:26to find the man that your daughter's engaged to, your precious Debbie

0:50:26 > 0:50:30is about to marry, having sex with the woman you're still in love with

0:50:30 > 0:50:34in the office where you've done it with her, possibly over the same desk.

0:50:34 > 0:50:36That good for nothing little shit!

0:50:36 > 0:50:38DOG GROWLS

0:50:38 > 0:50:40He wasn't worthy of cleaning Debbie's boots,

0:50:40 > 0:50:43let alone marrying her.

0:50:43 > 0:50:47He was all mouth. Told her exactly what she wanted to hear.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49I tried to tell her but she wasn't having it.

0:50:49 > 0:50:52It created a rift between us so I backed off.

0:50:52 > 0:50:56But he was a liar. Same with Elaine.

0:50:58 > 0:51:03Sweet-talking her with his little compliments. "I like your shoes".

0:51:04 > 0:51:08It wasn't her fault. He was using her.

0:51:10 > 0:51:14Well, not any more.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19Please sit down, Mr Jackson!

0:51:21 > 0:51:24Sit down, Mr Jackson.

0:51:31 > 0:51:36I bet you didn't even mean to kill him when you confronted him,

0:51:36 > 0:51:40did you? It was probably just a fight that escalated.

0:51:40 > 0:51:45But then, once you had knocked him out, it must have seemed so easy

0:51:45 > 0:51:50to just place him in the boot and put his head next to the bung.

0:51:50 > 0:51:55And then all you had to do was take the bung out, slam the boot

0:51:55 > 0:51:58and let the exhaust do the rest of the work.

0:51:58 > 0:52:00Who could blame you?

0:52:00 > 0:52:03He got what he deserved.

0:52:07 > 0:52:10Jack. Will you do the honours?

0:52:10 > 0:52:13I haven't got my cuffs with me.

0:52:13 > 0:52:14I've got some in my hand bag.

0:52:14 > 0:52:16Oh.

0:52:18 > 0:52:20They've never been used before.

0:52:20 > 0:52:22- Well, do you want to do it... - No, no, no.

0:52:22 > 0:52:24Can you do that bit and I'll do the...

0:52:24 > 0:52:25Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, do the...

0:52:28 > 0:52:33David Jackson, I'm arresting you on suspicion of the murder of Carl Mercer.

0:52:33 > 0:52:36You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:52:36 > 0:52:39if you do not mention when questioned something which you...

0:52:55 > 0:52:58You know what, you may as well just leave the bottle, and put it on my tab.

0:52:58 > 0:53:00- You don't have a tab. - Then put it on Jack's tab.

0:53:00 > 0:53:02Right you are.

0:53:02 > 0:53:04DOOR OPENS

0:53:04 > 0:53:06Hey, guys!

0:53:06 > 0:53:09Hey, Jack, where you been?

0:53:09 > 0:53:11You guys seem to be having a good time?

0:53:11 > 0:53:14It's not every day you solve your first case.

0:53:14 > 0:53:16Yeah, that's true. That is true.

0:53:16 > 0:53:18You know what, I couldn't have done it without you, Jack.

0:53:18 > 0:53:20Yeah, that's what he keeps saying.

0:53:20 > 0:53:22I wouldn't want you to feel bad.

0:53:22 > 0:53:25- Well, that's OK because I don't feel bad.- I'd understand if you did.

0:53:25 > 0:53:26Well I don't, so...

0:53:26 > 0:53:30You know, your rookie partner, solving the first case.

0:53:30 > 0:53:32Yeah, well, you know, I feel fine about that.

0:53:32 > 0:53:34I think that's pretty big of you.

0:53:34 > 0:53:36Yeah, I nudged you in the right direction,

0:53:36 > 0:53:40I stepped aside and you rose to the challenge.

0:53:40 > 0:53:42- You didn't step aside. - I stepped aside.

0:53:42 > 0:53:46You didn't really nudge me in the right direction either, I nudged myself...

0:53:46 > 0:53:49- OK, shall we have a toast? - What shall we drink to?

0:53:50 > 0:53:51To new partners.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53To new partners.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59Oh, and new friends.

0:53:59 > 0:54:03Hey, hey, hey. Cheers.

0:54:03 > 0:54:06OK, I'm going to the ladies room.

0:54:06 > 0:54:08- Are you going to be OK?- Uh-huh.

0:54:10 > 0:54:13- Whoa!- Sorry, Tony! - It's all right.

0:54:18 > 0:54:20What the hell have you guys done to her?

0:54:20 > 0:54:24- She said she could handle it. - She obviously can't handle it, she's totally trashed.

0:54:24 > 0:54:27- I think she's wonderful. - Shut up, you're totally trashed too.

0:54:27 > 0:54:30- I'll take him home but she's your responsibility. - Why's she my responsibility?

0:54:30 > 0:54:32"To new partners."

0:54:32 > 0:54:34Ah, Jesus, fair enough.

0:54:34 > 0:54:36That's yours as well, she just put it on your tab.

0:54:36 > 0:54:38- On my tab?- On your tab.

0:54:38 > 0:54:40- Oop.- Oop. You all right?- Mm-hm.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45What did you decide to do with your car?

0:54:45 > 0:54:47Well, I decided that if I'm going to spend 50 grand,

0:54:47 > 0:54:52I'm not going to spend it on some gas-guzzling kiddie wagon.

0:54:52 > 0:54:55Anyway, I'm fond of the old lady.

0:54:55 > 0:54:58Go on, hop in. Mind your head.

0:55:09 > 0:55:12OK.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15You know, I think you made the right decision.

0:55:15 > 0:55:18- Yeah?- Yeah. It kinda suits you.

0:55:18 > 0:55:19It does, doesn't it?

0:55:19 > 0:55:21ENGINE CHOKES

0:55:24 > 0:55:28Yeah.

0:55:28 > 0:55:31Oh, come on.

0:55:34 > 0:55:38- I tell you what, why don't we walk? - OK.

0:55:38 > 0:55:40The fresh air will do you good.

0:55:46 > 0:55:48What was your last partner like?

0:55:48 > 0:55:50Oh, she was great.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52She was a she.

0:56:04 > 0:56:09Yeah, but was she any good? Oop!

0:56:11 > 0:56:13She was amazing.

0:56:18 > 0:56:23I'll be honest with you, she was a bit of a pain in the arse.

0:56:23 > 0:56:26Am I a bit of a pain in the arse?

0:56:27 > 0:56:29Oh look, it's a full moon.

0:56:32 > 0:56:34I remember what it was like at Uni.

0:56:34 > 0:56:37- Do you? - Two types of girl broadly speaking.
