0:04:12 > 0:04:15- Meg was amazing. Really beautiful. - Which is a sweet way
0:04:15 > 0:04:17of telling me I'm a terrible father.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Or maybe I'm just trying to tell you
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- what you're missing.- Alex. Late is late. Late is not "don't care."
0:04:22 > 0:04:24You just watch out for those tough days,
0:04:24 > 0:04:28Daniel, because they have a sneaky way of destroying your liver.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32- I thought we'd treat the kids to an Indian on the way home. - I've got to go. Business to do.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Well I came, didn't I? I turned up.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52You got it all from me, didn't you? Fantastic.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Hey mate, was that a pas de deux or a pas de don't?
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Hello, mate.- Hi, Dad. - All right, son?- All right, Dad.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01OK, I'm sorry, I'm going to have to go again - work.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Why can't it wait till the morning?
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Because people who matter won't wait till the morning. Listen, I'm going to give it up, my job.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12We'll open a shop. Dancing shoes.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- How does that sound? - Dad, it sounds like bullshit.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Daniel, look, you look really tired, why don't you just come home
0:05:18 > 0:05:20and get some real sleep?
0:05:20 > 0:05:21You have no idea how good that sounds.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24I'll go and do this and I'll be head-on-the-pillow by eleven.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Twelve at the latest.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Oh, it's us. How did that happen, Henry?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42- How did what happen? - You and me. How did we end up the blokes who meet down a dark alley
0:08:42 > 0:08:46late at night? That wasn't the plan. How did we end up the bastards?
0:08:46 > 0:08:50Danny! You cut this crap. You're beginning to sound like a drunk.
0:08:50 > 0:08:54You get your act together.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- How can they do it at this price? - How do you think?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06They'll hire your staff and pay them less.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09You're not the only one who can sell a bag of bullshit
0:09:09 > 0:09:11to the council and call it "new, improved services".
0:09:11 > 0:09:14They can't pull it off at this price, it's not possible.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17No-one gives a shit if they can pull it off. "Are they cheap?"
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- "Yeah, they are." "Do we like it?" "Yeah, we do." - I can't beat this, Danny.
0:09:21 > 0:09:22Ah, well, then they get the deal!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26They get the deal? Is that what you're saying to me?
0:09:26 > 0:09:31So we shake hands - nice doing business with you down a dark alley.
0:09:31 > 0:09:32Is that it?
0:09:32 > 0:09:35You think I'm here with you because I like you,
0:09:35 > 0:09:39because we're mates, because you matter one bit to me?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42You take my money, son. Do you know what that means?
0:09:42 > 0:09:44That means I own you, Danny boy.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47I know everything there is to know about you, son.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51I know where the money goes, and I will use that.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56You want your kids to know what a whore-loving scumbag you are?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Eh? You get me what I need, or I'll destroy you.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05You understand? You are mine.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Charlie! Are you dressed, sweetheart?
0:10:29 > 0:10:31Do you want a bacon sandwich?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34CHILDREN CHATTER
0:10:40 > 0:10:44It's all right, Charlie. Just cut me hand.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49It's OK. Have your breakfast.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Come on, come on.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16Luke, Luke, come on, sweetheart, are you up?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21- You leave the window open and the seat down? - I need to know you're up.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24I'm going in ten minutes, now come on!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- What've you done to your hand? - Luke!
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Eddie Dayton was smashed last night - took me down with him.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- How's your hangover? - Beautiful!
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- So, how did you get home? - I got a cab.- I didn't hear it.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I got a quiet cab.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Do you even know how you got back?
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Automatic pilot.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57You know, Daniel, there are times, when you've had a drink,
0:11:57 > 0:11:59and you have such a look - it's like you're not here.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03It's called having fun. You used to join in.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04No, it's called alcoholic blackout.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Whole conversations, you don't remember them.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Well, maybe there's a reason for that.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13It's the bids and tenders today I've got to get moving.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Daniel, while you were out, I started looking on the internet.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Now, people think that blackout's just memory loss...
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Alex, I like getting lashed sometimes.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24That makes me normal. Step outside everybody's doing it.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28"When I drink, it's like I die. Another person takes over my body,
0:12:28 > 0:12:30"talks for me, thinks for me."
0:12:30 > 0:12:34Big word, alcoholic. Do you see a man with a string tied around his coat, or a man going to work?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37"It's like I am not present in my own life..."
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Who is chairing the bids and tenders meeting, if he can only get out of the house.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43"..getting to the airport, or getting on the plane.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46"It's that I wasn't conscious in my own mind when I did it!
0:12:46 > 0:12:48"I am here, but I'm gone."
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Yeah. Some people just can't get enough melodrama.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52I'm gone, too. To work.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Charlie, get your coat on, sweetheart.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01PHONE RINGS
0:13:01 > 0:13:02You all right, Chaz?
0:13:02 > 0:13:03HE CANCELS THE CALL
0:13:08 > 0:13:11PHONE RINGS AND HE CANCELS AGAIN
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Sometimes I wish you didn't make it home.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22Well, let me know when them times are and I'll sleep on Eddie's sofa!
0:13:22 > 0:13:24You think we can just carry on like this, do you?
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Just having the same battles, over and over?
0:13:29 > 0:13:31I don't want to live like this any more.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Will you drop Charlie off on your way in?

0:15:15 > 0:15:18So, we're down to two bidders
0:15:18 > 0:15:20and we've got them both in this morning
0:15:20 > 0:15:21to give their pitch.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22I'll start with...
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- Daniel, you haven't heard? - Heard what?
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I've been trying to call you all morning.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35Henry Pulis is in a coma.
0:15:37 > 0:15:38He was attacked last night.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43It sounds like he was mugged or worse.
0:15:45 > 0:15:50Danny! You cut this crap. You're beginning to sound like a drunk.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53You get your act together.
0:15:58 > 0:15:59We can't renew the contract
0:15:59 > 0:16:01until we find out how Henry's doing.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03I had no idea.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07My boy was sick so I just dived in the car and drove straight here.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09We'll reschedule the meeting.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11We've had some flowers sent over to the hospital.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14What's going on out there, eh?
0:16:14 > 0:16:16If you don't mind, Eddie, since we're rescheduling,
0:16:16 > 0:16:18I'll go and see how my boy is.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21I'll call the hospital on the way and see how Henry's doing.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Just turn on the radio, it's all over the news.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30- NEWSREADER:- Prominent local businessman Henry Pulis
0:16:30 > 0:16:33is in a critical condition in hospital today.
0:16:33 > 0:16:38Police are describing it as a brutal attack in the city last night.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Pulis is a key player in the fulfilment of council...
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Shocked at the incident...
0:16:45 > 0:16:46How can they do it at this price?
0:16:46 > 0:16:50How do you think? Hire your staff and pay them less.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27DOOR CLOSES
0:17:32 > 0:17:33Hello?
0:18:00 > 0:18:05Luke, what are you doing? Why aren't you at school?
0:18:05 > 0:18:06I don't know.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10I want to go in, I get up, I get dressed,
0:18:10 > 0:18:15I think about it and then I can't do it.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17You've been warned, haven't you?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19You start taking days off again, you'll be excluded.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26You've been excluded. What a mess!
0:18:28 > 0:18:31We'll get your mum to speak to the headmistress,
0:18:31 > 0:18:35tell them you've got a phobia or something, they'll have you back.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37No...
0:18:41 > 0:18:43What?
0:18:47 > 0:18:48You scare me when you have that look.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52What look?
0:18:57 > 0:18:58Hey.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03I don't want to scare you any more.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Charlie! Come on!
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Sorry.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Come on, son! Come on, Charlie.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53You think I'm here because I like you, because we're mates,
0:19:53 > 0:19:56because you matter one bit to me.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00You take my money, son, do you know what that means?
0:20:00 > 0:20:02That means I own you, Danny boy.
0:20:04 > 0:20:09You want your kids to know what a whore-loving scumbag you are?
0:20:24 > 0:20:29Charlie, I've got to go. I'll come back, I promise.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39ANSWERPHONE: Hi, this is Alex, please leave a message.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Alex, I'm sorry.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45This is all my doing, you've no idea how sorry I am.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48You don't deserve this.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Just take care of the kids, please.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Whatever you want, Daniel, will get laughed away.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Just give me five minutes, it's serious.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10You turn up here, not once do you ever come and see your sister,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12you come and see a lawyer.
0:21:12 > 0:21:13Let me just tell you...
0:21:13 > 0:21:14Whether it's a mistake, you're blameless,
0:21:14 > 0:21:17but it could get awkward because some woman is making up stories.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20- Is that about it?- I wish it was, this is nobody's fault but mine.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21I know that.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Can I ask you, because I have been wondering for some years now,
0:21:23 > 0:21:24don't you ever get sick of yourself?
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Nearly every day.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28That's why I'm here.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33You want a lawyer, Google one.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Don't feel you have to say anything, even if they try to press you,
0:21:50 > 0:21:52leave all the questions to me, OK?
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Nelson Fenner had the courage to speak out in the witness box today.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04He knew what we were asking him to do would put him at risk
0:22:04 > 0:22:06but he wanted to do the right thing.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11Nelson named names because he wants the dealers at our school gates to be stopped.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15He believes that something has to be done about the rule of fear
0:22:15 > 0:22:20that exists on his own estate, a no-go area for the police.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23He knew that someone had to do something
0:22:23 > 0:22:28for young people like his brother.
0:22:28 > 0:22:29He knew that he would be the one.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Alison?
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Is that it, have I paid?
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Help us!
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Help me, please!
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Do you know what you did?
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Do you know why you did it?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15It happened so fast.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18It wasn't like I thought.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Daniel...
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Daniel, if I ask you something,
0:24:28 > 0:24:30will you tell me the truth?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Don't I always?
0:24:34 > 0:24:38That message - you sounded gone.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46Was it because of what I said, "I've had enough"?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52I wasn't thinking that clear.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54It wasn't because of you.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58And you were right.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Why should you put up with me?
0:25:01 > 0:25:06What were you doing there anyway?
0:25:06 > 0:25:08Why did you go and see Lucy?
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Daniel?
0:25:16 > 0:25:17Why do you think?
0:25:20 > 0:25:23My wife tells me she's had enough of me,
0:25:23 > 0:25:25no one kicks me into shape like Lucy.
0:25:50 > 0:25:57Police said... Patrick, they have CCTV footage of a woman running away.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01In the red light area of town.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08They found Dad in an alleyway near there.
0:26:08 > 0:26:09Why was he there?
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Who's a lucky cowboy?
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Your hand's pretty much gone.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Well, you'll need a lot of physio.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04The doctor is supposed to tell you all this
0:27:04 > 0:27:09but most of them look about 12 so how can you take them seriously?
0:27:09 > 0:27:13Your neck will be scarred pretty badly but look at it this way,
0:27:13 > 0:27:17it's a miracle he didn't hit an artery.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19He was inches away from the head.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21- You should be in heaven.- Or hell.
0:27:24 > 0:27:29Look for life's blessings every day.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Do you believe that?
0:27:32 > 0:27:36My mother used to say it, she was quite religious.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46Donna.
0:27:47 > 0:27:53Do you want drugs? The pain?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56The pain is bearable.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59That already makes you a rarity.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Everybody wants as many drugs as they can get.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05I don't want to big you up
0:28:05 > 0:28:07but I've never seen anything like what you did.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10People don't use these words any more
0:28:10 > 0:28:13but it was like you sacrificed yourself.
0:28:13 > 0:28:14It just happened.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17No, things like that don't just happen.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20You did a different thing.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22That makes you a rarity.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30Have you any idea how famous you are?
0:29:01 > 0:29:03Hi, girls.
0:29:03 > 0:29:04- Dad.- Daddy!
0:29:09 > 0:29:11OK, pick a hand, pick a hand.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13That one. Thank you.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17OK, girls, why don't you get ready for bed?
0:29:17 > 0:29:18Now give me another kiss.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20- Night, night.- Night, darling.
0:29:22 > 0:29:23Brush your teeth.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29What you doing?
0:29:29 > 0:29:33I just saw those little things, thought the girls might like them.
0:29:33 > 0:29:34It could wait till the weekend.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38I can act on impulse, can't I? Let them know I'm thinking about them.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40It just helps me to know when you're coming.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42- Yeah...- Not to just turn up.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45I know that, but if they know that I'm thinking about them, then they know that...
0:29:45 > 0:29:47I love them. What's wrong with that?
0:29:47 > 0:29:50I'm not saying there's anything wrong.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52I just need you to understand.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55You look different.
0:29:57 > 0:29:58It's my make-up.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Please call when you want to come round.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03My phone was dead. Have you done something to your hair?
0:30:03 > 0:30:05Yeah, I er...
0:30:05 > 0:30:07I had it cut. You know me, I'm always messing with my hair.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Are you...are you seeing someone?
0:30:10 > 0:30:13I'm not seeing anyone. It's none of your business if I am, but I'm not.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15What, you think I can't read it in your face?
0:30:15 > 0:30:18What is my business is if you lie to me. Don't lie to me, Sylvie, don't...
0:30:18 > 0:30:21I deserve the truth. I promised you. I married you.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Do you think I'm stupid? I know what the hair's about. So who is it?
0:30:24 > 0:30:27It's no one. There's no one.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33I'll find out.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Please accept this is not about another person. It's about us.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38We're finished.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40Please try to see that.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48I'm going to get proof.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53Then you'll admit it.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18PULIS LAUGHS
0:31:18 > 0:31:20You took my money, son, do you know what that means?
0:31:20 > 0:31:22That means I own you, Danny boy.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27What are you doing in here?
0:31:30 > 0:31:32(Is he going to live?)
0:31:39 > 0:31:40Come on.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58What did you want in there?
0:31:58 > 0:31:59Absolution.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01You know him?
0:32:01 > 0:32:02Yeah.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04Survivor guilt?
0:32:04 > 0:32:06- What?- Why me?
0:32:06 > 0:32:08Why should I live and him die?
0:32:08 > 0:32:10Why do I deserve it?
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Donna...
0:32:14 > 0:32:16I'm a drunk.
0:32:18 > 0:32:19I'm a hopeless drunk.
0:32:21 > 0:32:27I never gave a thought to my wife, my kids, my job.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29Nothing mattered to me more than getting wasted.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34I've never admitted that to anyone before.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36I don't know why I'm telling you.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38I had to admit it to someone, I suppose.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Were you drunk when you did the heroics?
0:32:45 > 0:32:47I've never been so sober in my life.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52When I stood there...
0:32:52 > 0:32:55and I heard what that boy had done, a boy...
0:32:57 > 0:33:02Morals and courage, that made me see what a toxic shit I am.
0:33:05 > 0:33:06I felt such shame.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11And I realised I was sick of being sick.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16I think they call it a moment of clarity.
0:33:16 > 0:33:17Who do?
0:33:17 > 0:33:19People who have moments of clarity.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23I've never said a prayer in my life before.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Well, maybe as a kid, but I never meant it anyway.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30I don't know who I was talking to, I just said...
0:33:31 > 0:33:33.."I'm sick of myself.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36"Please show me a way out of this hell."
0:33:37 > 0:33:41And then I looked up and I saw the kid with the gun.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Maybe there is a purpose you don't know yet. For you. To live.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53Just wait and see what comes, and maybe you'll know.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57WOMAN ON TV: ..attempted drive-by shooting on the steps of the Crown Court.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59It's thought that Mr Demoys threw himself
0:33:59 > 0:34:01in front of the intended victim Nelson Venner,
0:34:01 > 0:34:05who'd been testifying against drug gangs in the city.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Tributes to Mr Demoys have been pouring in,
0:34:07 > 0:34:11praising his bravery and hailing him a national hero.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14As videos of the shooting have circulated on social media,
0:34:14 > 0:34:17Demoys has gained something of a cult status,
0:34:17 > 0:34:20leading to speculation that he should be given greater prominence
0:34:20 > 0:34:24in the city council whilst he recovers from his injuries.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27In the past few moments, Nelson Venner was asked to comment
0:34:27 > 0:34:32on speculations that Mr Demoys may now have a higher political calling.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34People keep saying to me, "Why can't we have a man like him
0:34:34 > 0:34:38"to run the city? All the other guys are just same old, same old,
0:34:38 > 0:34:42"but Daniel Demoys, he's got guts.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44"The whole world has seen that."
0:34:44 > 0:34:48Political communications director Jerry Durrans refused to be drawn
0:34:48 > 0:34:52on the impact the shooting might have on the forthcoming mayoral election.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55CACOPHONY OF QUESTIONS
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- Sorry to disturb you. - It's all right, I was awake.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17I wanted to say...what you did...
0:35:17 > 0:35:19I have so much admiration.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22It's given me something to hang onto.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26I'm sorry. Do you know who I am?
0:35:26 > 0:35:28Henry Pulis' daughter.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Ruth.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32I've seen you with him sometimes.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40What I just told you, it's not the truth.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45I didn't come here to say those things.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47I came in here because I saw you walking with the nurse
0:35:47 > 0:35:49and I thought...
0:35:49 > 0:35:50you can help me.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54I don't know how I can do that.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56You know my father.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58A little.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02The police are saying things about him because of where he was found.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04It's in the papers now.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Everybody believes that's what he was doing.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11How can they say that? They don't know him like I do.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14I know the kind of man your father was.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17Is.
0:36:17 > 0:36:18He's still alive.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Of course. I'm sorry.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23I want him to wake up.
0:36:23 > 0:36:27- I can't bear it.- Ruth, listen to me, what happened to your father...
0:36:27 > 0:36:31The police are saying they have more information. The woman.
0:36:31 > 0:36:32There was another sighting.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35A description of her.
0:36:35 > 0:36:36She's young.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Like, in her twenties.
0:36:38 > 0:36:42She was running and crying. Blonde hair.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45She was carrying her shoes. They had silver buckles.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47- SHE LAUGHS WEAKLY - Silver buckles.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Can you believe that?
0:36:52 > 0:36:55That's what they're telling me. That's all they have...
0:36:55 > 0:36:57- I'm sure...- Will you help me?
0:36:58 > 0:37:00(What can I do?)
0:37:05 > 0:37:06You talk to the press.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11Tell them the kind of man your father was.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13They have to find this woman.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17WOMAN ON TV: 'Police investigating the brutal attack'
0:37:17 > 0:37:22on local businessman Henry Pulis are pursuing a new line of inquiry.
0:37:22 > 0:37:26CCTV footage released today shows a woman running from the scene
0:37:26 > 0:37:27of the assault.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31Detectives have urgently called for her to come forward.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34Someone must know who this woman is. The woman who ran away.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39The police believe this woman is a prostitute.
0:37:39 > 0:37:40We have to find her.
0:37:42 > 0:37:43Please.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47REPORTER: It's thought this brutal attack on a businessman
0:37:47 > 0:37:49so closely tied to the city council,
0:37:49 > 0:37:51where he served to strengthen the argument of politicians,
0:37:51 > 0:37:56who are urgently calling for more police on our streets.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59Senior investigating officer DCI Griffin urged people
0:37:59 > 0:38:01to remain on their guard as concerns grow.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11NEARBY SIRENS WAIL
0:38:16 > 0:38:17You parked me in.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20Go easy, Bevan. We're busy. We're in a hurry.
0:38:20 > 0:38:23There's no conspiracy to park you in.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26No wonder you can't find a prostitute.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29You can't even find a parking space.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32Bevan, you want to know why you never get in
0:38:32 > 0:38:35on any of the big cases?
0:38:35 > 0:38:37You need to look at your attitude.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41Maybe you should be a little bit more...
0:38:44 > 0:38:45..conducive.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53- Conducive?- Yeah. You know?
0:38:53 > 0:38:55The spirit of cooperation
0:38:55 > 0:38:57and the teamwork thing.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Come on, Griffin.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Leave the grudge at home.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08Leave that with me.
0:39:10 > 0:39:11I'm working on it.
0:39:16 > 0:39:17SIREN BLARES
0:39:29 > 0:39:31'Hello, ICT, how can I help?'
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Can I speak to Daniel Demoys, please?
0:39:36 > 0:39:38'Are you from the press?'
0:39:38 > 0:39:40No, it's... It's a personal call.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42'I can't just put you through to the ward.'
0:39:45 > 0:39:47Well, can I leave a message?
0:39:47 > 0:39:48'Can you leave a name?'
0:39:48 > 0:39:51No, I don't really want to leave my name.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54'I'm sorry. Without a name...'
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Do you remember what you said to me?
0:40:15 > 0:40:17I thought you were dying.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25Do you remember what it was you said?
0:40:25 > 0:40:27"Beam me up, Scotty"?
0:40:27 > 0:40:30You didn't used to make a joke about everything.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32I think I deserve a medal, under the circumstances.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37My brother's shot.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39It gets to me, it's like...
0:40:43 > 0:40:46- TEARFULLY:- Isn't it time we said that's enough now?
0:40:47 > 0:40:49You look like you're 17 again.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54That's how you sounded when you were a teenager.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02What you said was...
0:41:04 > 0:41:08.."Is that it now? Did I pay?"
0:41:08 > 0:41:11It keeps going round and round my head. "Did I pay?"
0:41:11 > 0:41:15Like Meg's always telling me, I'm a drama queen.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17KNOCK ON DOOR
0:41:17 > 0:41:20Daniel - you know Jerry Durrans?
0:41:21 > 0:41:23I know of Jerry Durrans.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25I just wanted to shake your hand, Daniel,
0:41:25 > 0:41:28tell you personally how grateful I am.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31You have single-handedly given this city
0:41:31 > 0:41:33a politician they can believe in.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38- That's all I wanted to say. - But that's not all.
0:41:38 > 0:41:41No. But you've got to start with the niceties.
0:41:41 > 0:41:46Otherwise we're no better than beasts in the jungle.
0:41:46 > 0:41:48For the first time,
0:41:48 > 0:41:52this city is going to have a political mayor with real power.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54Look who the main parties have put forward.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56Two featherweights - it's like a pillow fight.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58It'll just be more and more of the same.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01You've seen the voting figures for the last 20-30 years,
0:42:01 > 0:42:04they just keep falling. Why do you think that is?
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Is it apathy?
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Contentment? We've all had enough of the well-honed speeches,
0:42:09 > 0:42:12cos when you walk into a hospital today,
0:42:12 > 0:42:17there's a good chance you're going to pick up something that's going to kill you.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22We want you to stand for mayor, Daniel.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24You think I don't know?
0:42:26 > 0:42:28I've been in this game long enough
0:42:28 > 0:42:31to know what Mr Demoys has been getting up to.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34The booze, the pills, the women, the gambling...
0:42:34 > 0:42:38- The coke habit.- The coke habit. There you go.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Well, a candidate in treatment.
0:42:41 > 0:42:42It's pretty sexy.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45HE CHUCKLES
0:42:45 > 0:42:49I'm just joking. Don't think I don't take this seriously, Daniel.
0:42:49 > 0:42:50I work long, long hours.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53I could've very easily gone into business, made some proper money.
0:42:53 > 0:42:57I certainly had the offers. But I stuck with politics,
0:42:57 > 0:43:01because there is a stubborn bit of me that still believes.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04I can see what is right in front of us. A golden opportunity.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06If we don't grab it,
0:43:06 > 0:43:09we're just as plastic as those bastards on the ballot paper.
0:43:09 > 0:43:13If I let this go, I would not like myself.
0:43:13 > 0:43:17If you are mayor of this city, Daniel, in the centre of things,
0:43:17 > 0:43:20affecting people's lives, huh?
0:43:20 > 0:43:22You know what you did.
0:43:22 > 0:43:26Have you any idea of the scale of the impact?
0:43:26 > 0:43:28- You're a national hero. - You're the king dog.
0:43:28 > 0:43:32If we put your name forward for this election, you will win it.
0:43:32 > 0:43:34- That's not possible.- I say it is.
0:43:34 > 0:43:36I'll be your campaign manager.
0:43:36 > 0:43:38I've won elections and I've lost elections,
0:43:38 > 0:43:40but I know what a winner feels like.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43See, you probably don't remember this. But I do.
0:43:43 > 0:43:46You were, like, ten or something.
0:43:46 > 0:43:50And you told Dad that you were going to be President.
0:43:50 > 0:43:53And he explained to you that we don't have a President in this country.
0:43:53 > 0:43:57And you thought about it and you said, "I don't care. I'm going to do it anyway."
0:43:57 > 0:44:01Daniel, if you're Mayor,
0:44:01 > 0:44:03housing, poverty,
0:44:03 > 0:44:06education, hospitals - just imagine it.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Yeah, I'll even call you Mr President, if that helps.
0:44:09 > 0:44:11Listen to me, both of you.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15I'm a sorry excuse for a local politician.
0:44:15 > 0:44:17There's a reason for that.
0:44:17 > 0:44:21I'm weak. I'm selfish. I'm a coward.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23You know what? I believe you.
0:44:23 > 0:44:25I could win this election.
0:44:27 > 0:44:31This country is probably stupid enough to let that happen.
0:44:33 > 0:44:35They'd vote for the bloke on the TV.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39Today's blue-eyed boy.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41Like someone off some talent show,
0:44:41 > 0:44:44all fireworks and flashing lights.
0:44:44 > 0:44:46Yeah, I could be Mayor.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51But it would be just another marketing trick.
0:44:51 > 0:44:55Let's con the public into buying something empty and useless.
0:44:58 > 0:45:00And I won't do that.
0:45:06 > 0:45:10'Local councilman Daniel Demoys was released from hospital today
0:45:10 > 0:45:13'among growing speculation from political insiders
0:45:13 > 0:45:16'that the recent outpouring of public support
0:45:16 > 0:45:17'might make him a shock candidate
0:45:17 > 0:45:20'in the forthcoming mayoral elections.
0:45:20 > 0:45:23'Some commentators have dismissed the idea as fanciful... '
0:45:23 > 0:45:25Come on.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30Do you want a drink?
0:45:30 > 0:45:31Yeah.
0:45:31 > 0:45:33Do we have any lemonade?
0:45:33 > 0:45:34We have lemonade.
0:45:36 > 0:45:37Hey.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41Are you going to be Mayor, Dad?
0:45:41 > 0:45:43No. That's all nonsense.
0:45:43 > 0:45:44I think you should.
0:45:44 > 0:45:47Will you lot all concentrate - I'm going to fleece you,
0:45:47 > 0:45:48like I always do!
0:45:48 > 0:45:50Yeah, right(!)
0:46:04 > 0:46:06Last time we stood here, I'd had enough.
0:46:08 > 0:46:10I wish I could just have five minutes
0:46:10 > 0:46:13when my mind was still enough to know how I feel.
0:46:16 > 0:46:18Why did you do it?
0:46:18 > 0:46:22Everybody thinks it was a brave thing that I did, but it wasn't.
0:46:24 > 0:46:29I couldn't face another day, another minute of me.
0:46:29 > 0:46:32Yeah, I watched you.
0:46:32 > 0:46:34And I couldn't stop you -
0:46:34 > 0:46:36turning into someone who didn't want to live.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39And I hated you for it.
0:46:39 > 0:46:41I mean, you have so much right here,
0:46:41 > 0:46:43so much, and it's just not enough.
0:46:43 > 0:46:44I look at the kids
0:46:44 > 0:46:46and I don't understand it myself.
0:46:49 > 0:46:52But I'm not there now, and I don't want to go back there.
0:46:52 > 0:46:55I want to stop hurting you
0:46:55 > 0:46:57and I want to stop hurting the kids,
0:46:57 > 0:46:59but I don't know how.
0:47:17 > 0:47:19'9 out of 10 for being a stand-up kind of bloke.
0:47:19 > 0:47:22'OK, ask me anything - if I lie, that's it.'
0:47:23 > 0:47:25What's in the envelope?
0:47:26 > 0:47:28I've got to do a little bit of work
0:47:28 > 0:47:30and then why don't you and me run away?
0:47:32 > 0:47:34'You didn't answer my question.
0:47:34 > 0:47:37'What's in the envelope?'
0:47:47 > 0:47:50What are you doing?
0:47:50 > 0:47:53- I think I've lost my wallet. - I'll help you look.
0:48:02 > 0:48:05Some of the states you've seen me in with drink...
0:48:05 > 0:48:07I'm never going to drink.
0:48:07 > 0:48:10Bad news - idiot juice.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14The way I've been...
0:48:16 > 0:48:18Things that have happened...
0:48:20 > 0:48:22Nothing you did, or your mum,
0:48:22 > 0:48:25or Luke or Charlie.
0:48:25 > 0:48:29All right? None of it was because of you.
0:48:29 > 0:48:30I need you to remember that.
0:48:32 > 0:48:34Dad, go easy on the drama.
0:48:35 > 0:48:38You fell down sometimes. I'll survive.
0:48:41 > 0:48:43No wallet.
0:48:43 > 0:48:44Gone.
0:48:44 > 0:48:47Maybe I left it somewhere else.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49It'll turn up.
0:48:49 > 0:48:51Everything always turns up somewhere.
0:48:57 > 0:48:59- VOICE ECHOES:- 'They get the deal?
0:48:59 > 0:49:01'Is that what you're saying to me?'
0:49:41 > 0:49:43Where's the fucking envelope?!
0:50:23 > 0:50:25Daniel?
0:50:26 > 0:50:31I thought this whole idea of you standing for Mayor was madness.
0:50:34 > 0:50:36But maybe they're right.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40You can use what has happened to you to help people.
0:50:40 > 0:50:42Do something that matters.
0:51:03 > 0:51:05Hey, Mr Demoys. Good to see you back.
0:51:11 > 0:51:13You were on TV, Mr Demoys.
0:51:15 > 0:51:18Everybody says you're going to be Mayor.
0:51:24 > 0:51:26Have the police been in here to talk to you?
0:51:28 > 0:51:31Now, why would they come in here?
0:51:33 > 0:51:36The last time I was here there was a woman,
0:51:36 > 0:51:38in that booth over there.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40Do you know her?
0:51:44 > 0:51:49What I hear is, you're going to be Mayor, Mr D.
0:51:52 > 0:51:54BEEPING
0:51:54 > 0:51:56CONTINUOUS TONE
0:52:26 > 0:52:31'..as news of his death has sent shockwaves through City Hall.
0:52:31 > 0:52:34'Pulis is survived by his only daughter Ruth...'
0:52:37 > 0:52:38What is it?
0:52:40 > 0:52:42Henry Pulis died last night.
0:52:42 > 0:52:45I can't find my sports bag. Why am I always losing my sports bag?
0:52:45 > 0:52:48- Well, if you put it where I told you to put it...- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:52:48 > 0:52:51Have you finished your bacon, sweetheart?
0:52:52 > 0:52:55Luke, I'm going to go without you now!
0:52:55 > 0:52:57- I'm up!- Well, come on then. Charlie, come on.
0:53:01 > 0:53:03'She describes him as her guiding light.'
0:53:03 > 0:53:05'He was such a kind father.
0:53:05 > 0:53:08'Such a lovely man.
0:53:08 > 0:53:11He can't tell us what happened to him that night.
0:53:13 > 0:53:15I'm pleading.
0:53:15 > 0:53:19'If you know anything, if you saw anything...
0:53:19 > 0:53:21'please.'
0:53:52 > 0:53:54Your sister gave me your address.
0:53:54 > 0:53:57- Did she tell you to come?- No.
0:53:57 > 0:53:58I decided to come myself.
0:53:58 > 0:54:02I mean, I wanted to say thanks.
0:54:02 > 0:54:03Yeah, well, there's no need.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08Your sister told me how you used to be,
0:54:08 > 0:54:10when you were younger, like.
0:54:10 > 0:54:12Your beliefs, your ideals and everything.
0:54:12 > 0:54:14Yeah, well, I'm not that man anymore.
0:54:14 > 0:54:16I can't even remember the day I let it go.
0:54:20 > 0:54:22My brother got killed.
0:54:22 > 0:54:26I mean - he killed himself.
0:54:26 > 0:54:29He was using, and it took his life.
0:54:29 > 0:54:31He was 16.
0:54:33 > 0:54:36I believe that he was killed by where we live.
0:54:36 > 0:54:38That can't be right, can it?
0:54:40 > 0:54:42You're wasted by where you are born.
0:54:45 > 0:54:48Look, none of them other guys are going to do anything about it.
0:54:48 > 0:54:51All right? We all know that - nothing.
0:54:51 > 0:54:53So more kids are going to die.
0:54:53 > 0:54:55How can that be right? Hmm?
0:54:55 > 0:54:58What, are you just going to ignore that,
0:54:58 > 0:55:01when you could do something about it?
0:55:31 > 0:55:34I'm a drunk.
0:55:34 > 0:55:37For my entire adult life, I've been selfish and cynical.
0:55:37 > 0:55:40What kind of city would want me as a mayor?
0:55:42 > 0:55:43One as sick as I am.
0:55:43 > 0:55:44Now, the truth is,
0:55:44 > 0:55:48I didn't want to be a candidate in this election.
0:55:48 > 0:55:51But I'm starting to think that it might be my chance
0:55:51 > 0:55:54to pay for the things I've done wrong.
0:55:54 > 0:55:56I don't know if I can do it.
0:55:56 > 0:55:59But what I do know, is that if I pick up a drink,
0:55:59 > 0:56:02things are going to get worse.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05So if you want me as your mayor, here's what I offer you...
0:56:07 > 0:56:09No more bullshit.
0:56:09 > 0:56:11If you want me, I'll do it,
0:56:11 > 0:56:13but I am going to rip things up,
0:56:13 > 0:56:19because I've lived inside of politics and it nearly killed me.
0:56:19 > 0:56:23And what's worse is that it hurt my family.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26I'm not going to do that anymore.
0:56:27 > 0:56:31So, my question to you is -
0:56:31 > 0:56:35who wants to dump the bullshit?
0:56:35 > 0:56:40REPORTERS FIRE QUESTIONS
0:57:15 > 0:57:17I hear the ticking of the clock.
0:57:17 > 0:57:19Everything that's happened is telling me
0:57:19 > 0:57:21that I can pay for what I've done.
0:57:21 > 0:57:23How come they've got evidence, after weeks of nothing?
0:57:23 > 0:57:25This is good news, isn't it?
0:57:25 > 0:57:28My father might have corrupted the contract process.
0:57:28 > 0:57:31If there was someone working with him, how do we find that person?
0:57:31 > 0:57:32Huh! Argh!
0:57:36 > 0:57:38There's blood on your shirt. She's gone. She ran.
0:57:38 > 0:57:42- You saw?- I can't get it out of my head.- This is all going to stop now, Sylvie.
0:57:42 > 0:57:44- I just want my family back. - Get out!
0:57:44 > 0:57:46When everything is SO good...
0:57:48 > 0:57:50..it has to be bad.
