0:00:02 > 0:00:04- How can they do this? - Hire your staff and pay them less!

0:00:04 > 0:00:06Daniel, you haven't heard?

0:00:06 > 0:00:10Henry Pulis is in a coma. He was attacked last night.

0:00:10 > 0:00:11'Sylvie. My Sylvie.'

0:00:11 > 0:00:14- Are you seeing someone?- None of your business, but I'm not.

0:00:14 > 0:00:16Don't lie to me, Sylvie. I'll get proof.

0:00:16 > 0:00:20'Police said they have CCTV footage of a woman running away.'

0:00:20 > 0:00:21Why was he there?

0:00:21 > 0:00:26Last time I was here, there was a woman over there. Do you know her?

0:00:26 > 0:00:29This is all my doing. You don't deserve this.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32'Just take care of the kids, please.'

0:00:32 > 0:00:33I'm a drunk.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36Nothing mattered to me more than getting wasted.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38Maybe there is a purpose you don't know yet, for you.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Maybe they're right.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43You can use what has happened to you to help people.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46What kind of city would want me as a mayor?

0:00:46 > 0:00:53This programme contains some violent scenes and some strong language.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56REPORTERS CLAMOUR

0:00:56 > 0:00:58CAMERAS CLICK

0:01:03 > 0:01:06They say people get the leader they deserve.

0:01:06 > 0:01:07REPORTERS FALL SILENT

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Our city picked a drunk for a mayor. Well done.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13I'm getting a chance to pay for all the wrongs that I've done.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16But right now, I've got to take the kids to school.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18REPORTERS CLAMOUR

0:01:18 > 0:01:19Come on.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28BOTTLE TOP CLINKS

0:01:37 > 0:01:41The thing to remember is, they want you to take charge.

0:01:41 > 0:01:46So make a gesture. Do something to show them that you're going to lead.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49Do it kindly.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46- Let's dive straight in. What's first on the list? - Recycling and refuse collection.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49And who said politics wasn't sexy any more?

0:02:49 > 0:02:51CHUCKLING

0:02:51 > 0:02:52There is a broader issue, which is that

0:02:52 > 0:02:55the whole city services contracts remain up for renewal,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57postponed after Henry Pulis's death.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59We've been holding onto the tenders

0:02:59 > 0:03:02until the new administration was in place.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04We can go through those, but I think we should open it out

0:03:04 > 0:03:07- to bring in some more bids. - Maybe not.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11We spend millions and millions of pounds of council money...

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Oh, I've lost touch already!

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Millions of pounds of TAXPAYERS' money.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20People like Henry Pulis take a thick slice of profit off the top.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Sorry, but the idea of taking services back into public ownership,

0:03:23 > 0:03:26that's the land that time forgot! CHUCKLING

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Well, that's not what I'm saying.

0:03:29 > 0:03:30So, what are you proposing?

0:03:30 > 0:03:33The people who do the work, they own the company, they run it.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35There's a word for that - communism.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37When I was a kid, it was called the Co-op.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Problem number one - it won't work.

0:03:40 > 0:03:44Problem number two - it wasn't in the manifesto.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47They didn't vote for who collects the rubbish.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50They voted for someone to tell them the truth. So, let's do that.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52Let's spell it out, let them decide.

0:03:58 > 0:04:03Hello. Is it possible to speak to the mayor, please?

0:04:03 > 0:04:06- 'Not at the moment.' - Well, can I leave a message?

0:04:06 > 0:04:07'Can I take your name?

0:04:07 > 0:04:10'No, I don't really want to leave my name.'

0:04:15 > 0:04:16Are you ready?

0:04:22 > 0:04:25852 employees. Equal shares in the company.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29They vote in the management, who stand for re-election every year.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34Three objectives. One - provide the city with services. They serve.

0:04:34 > 0:04:38Two - take care of employees, who happen to be the shareholders.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Three - any profit goes back into the city.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Radical.

0:04:42 > 0:04:43Democratic.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47Daniel, please, you don't need to convert me. I'm a believer.

0:04:47 > 0:04:48You do see the problem, though, don't you?

0:04:48 > 0:04:51- Enlighten me. - It's a world without incentive.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Today, I am my own boss. So how would I like to get up

0:04:54 > 0:04:58and clear a shitty, rancid, disease-hole of a drain

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- or would I rather just stay in bed? - You have no faith in humanity, Jerry.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03Devil's advocate.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06It will turn political and it will turn on you.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09You sound to me more like the devil's best friend.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12It's my job to spot the traps and pitfalls,

0:05:12 > 0:05:17name them, shine a big light on them so that you, Mr Mayor,

0:05:17 > 0:05:19can step right around them.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Come on, Jerry. Let's shake the tree, see what falls out.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42I thought we could go out again tonight and celebrate.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43What do you think?

0:05:45 > 0:05:47I'm going to go round to Daniel's.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Well, I can come.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52It becomes too visible. I just don't think it's...

0:05:52 > 0:05:54it's fair to ask people to collude.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01How's business?

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Daniel seems to think we're the people's republic.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Aren't we?

0:06:10 > 0:06:12LAUGHTER

0:06:12 > 0:06:15It's two jobs, really - drugs and law.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Daniel, I can't take a job at City Hall.

0:06:18 > 0:06:23It says here the mayor has a budget of £82 million.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25You get to spend £82 million?

0:06:25 > 0:06:29It's not like getting a wallet full of cash and heading down to Gap.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31- We're custodians.- Mm-hm.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Who knows what a custodian is? - I'd head to Zalando.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- That's a lot of shoes. - You're not telling me

0:06:36 > 0:06:38you want to stay where you are, practising?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40This is what you've always dreamed of.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43It's time for me to leave this town. A new life.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45What are you talking about?

0:06:45 > 0:06:49Luke, does your laptop need to be on the table for every meal we have?

0:06:52 > 0:06:54This pasta's fantastic.

0:06:54 > 0:06:58It's pasta. It comes in a packet,

0:06:58 > 0:07:00I boil it.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Right, I want you all to hear this.

0:07:08 > 0:07:12If I can be half the person your mother is, I'll die happy.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19When I was doing my best to rip this family apart, she held it together.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22While I was running around like a selfish child,

0:07:22 > 0:07:26she showed you what a real grown-up behaves like.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Alex, I can never repay you for what you've given me.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35I don't care what the whole city thinks of me.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39I just want to earn your respect.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Jeez, Dad! Can't we even have dinner without a Disney speech?

0:07:49 > 0:07:53- Mum, can you pass us the...? - Yeah, sure.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Why do you want to leave now? We've only just got started.

0:08:01 > 0:08:02I'm pregnant.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09Well, that's great, isn't it? I had an idea you and Jerry were close.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11What's the deal with his marriage?

0:08:11 > 0:08:14It'll ruin Jerry if I stay here.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17And I won't give up this baby.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18He doesn't know?

0:08:22 > 0:08:25I don't want to tell him. I know how mad that is.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21ROCK MUSIC PLAYS

0:09:30 > 0:09:33INCREASES VOLUME

0:09:40 > 0:09:42What are you doing?

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Is he in there?

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Tell him to come out.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48There's no-one in there!

0:09:50 > 0:09:53I'm getting the locks changed.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Can you not see what you're doing?

0:09:55 > 0:09:58Can you not see how you scare Kim and Jeannie?

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Get out of my house.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05You idiot!

0:10:06 > 0:10:08You wonder why I've had enough of you?

0:10:08 > 0:10:11This is why I've had enough of you.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13It's all right.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15I'm sorry.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19I just want my family back.

0:10:23 > 0:10:24HE SOBS

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I just want my family back!

0:10:35 > 0:10:38Get out! Go!

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Get out! Will you get out?!

0:10:43 > 0:10:44No!

0:10:59 > 0:11:02I don't want to talk to any more junior officers.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05I want to speak to the person leading the investigation.

0:11:08 > 0:11:12Well, get Detective Griffin to call me, then.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16My friend the mayor.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Can we get a coffee?

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Dad was a member of these clubs.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25I've been looking through his stuff.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28Midnight Moves, the Silhouette Bar.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31If all he wanted was sex, those clubs have rooms.

0:11:32 > 0:11:38So if it was about having a woman, why go to some seedy alleyway?

0:11:38 > 0:11:40It makes no sense to say he was with this prostitute.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Have you told the police this? - I don't want to.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46They'll mess it up. It's like they don't want to know.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54- Ruth, listen to me...- I don't think she is a prostitute, this woman.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57If she was, they would have found her.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- You have to stop this.- I want to go to the alleyway where they found him.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03Will you come with me? Tonight?

0:12:06 > 0:12:10There's a woman downstairs who wants to see you. She says she knows you.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14She won't rearrange for another day. Insists she has to see you now.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20What are you doing here?

0:12:20 > 0:12:23I was going to come and see you after you got out of the hospital,

0:12:23 > 0:12:25but one or two things were happening.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28You got yourself elected, so it was impossible.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30You saved my life, so now you reckon I owe you.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33You've come to petition me about hospital funding.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37You're going to pick up a drink, mister.

0:12:37 > 0:12:38Not possible.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40I've seen you on TV.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42You're on top of the world.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44I hear the ticking of the clock.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48- You've got me worked out? - Yes, I have.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Do you know how far you are from drinking again?

0:12:53 > 0:12:55This far.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58When the thought of a drink comes - and it WILL come...

0:12:58 > 0:13:00call me.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16- PULIS:- 'You think I'm here with you because I like you?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19'Because we're mates? Because you matter one bit to me?'

0:13:19 > 0:13:24Danny, you cut this crap! You're beginning to sound like a drunk!

0:13:24 > 0:13:27You get your act together.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29My act, Henry?

0:13:29 > 0:13:31My act is this.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34I don't belong in my own skin!

0:13:53 > 0:13:54Dad was talking about you that day.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57The day he was killed.

0:13:57 > 0:13:58He was cursing you.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01Saying what an awkward swine you were.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05He liked to get his own way.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13The police say the girl ran down here.

0:14:13 > 0:14:18I just don't believe no-one saw her. It's like no-one's telling the truth.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20Hi, there!

0:14:24 > 0:14:26There's blood on your shirt.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28She's gone.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29She ran.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32There's blood all over you.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35- 'There's blood all over you...' - Please don't protect me.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Are you OK?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Hey.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58I'm going to take you home.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36DISTANT SHOUTING

0:15:36 > 0:15:37SIRENS WAILING

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Oh, no.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Absolute piece of crap.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50I didn't do anything! I don't know anything!

0:17:50 > 0:17:52- Do you know who I am? - I don't know anything!

0:17:52 > 0:17:55- Well, why did you run when you saw me?- You're police, aren't you?

0:17:55 > 0:17:57- You saw me that night. - Who are you?

0:17:57 > 0:18:00You can't talk to anyone, understand?

0:18:00 > 0:18:03- I must have hit him, did I? - Listen to me,

0:18:03 > 0:18:04you didn't do anything, OK?

0:18:04 > 0:18:07It's going to be all right, you didn't kill anyone.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10- They're saying he's dead. Is he dead?- Not you.- I can't remember!

0:18:11 > 0:18:13(I can't remember.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16(I can't remember.)

0:18:18 > 0:18:22I want you to stay here tonight, OK? I'll come and see you tomorrow.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Why are you doing this? - I'm the same as you, I'm a drunk.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27You stay here, OK?

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Have a shower. Can you do that?

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Here, pay cash.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36OK?

0:18:36 > 0:18:38I'll come back.

0:19:00 > 0:19:01DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:19:23 > 0:19:24Alex?

0:19:27 > 0:19:28'I didn't want you to ever know.'

0:19:37 > 0:19:40I wanted to give myself up to the police.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42That's why I went to see Lucy.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46I want to pay.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50I'm doing it.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52I'm trying.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Everything that's happened is telling me

0:19:56 > 0:19:58that I can pay for what I've done.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04I know how that sounds.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Alex.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I must have been so gone.

0:20:13 > 0:20:14It keeps coming back to me.

0:20:16 > 0:20:17What happened.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Me and Henry in that alleyway.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24I see it.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26What I did to him.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29You think I want to hear that?

0:20:31 > 0:20:33You think I want to know what happened?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Ever since I woke up that morning...

0:20:40 > 0:20:42..I've been thinking.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44I've been asking myself,

0:20:44 > 0:20:46"Why don't the police come after me?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50"Why don't they know I did it?"

0:20:56 > 0:20:58What if the kids never have to know?

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Don't you ever touch our children again.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Don't you fucking ever go near them!

0:21:33 > 0:21:35DONNA: 'I hear the ticking of the clock.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41'When the thought of a drink comes - and it WILL come...

0:21:42 > 0:21:43'..call me.'

0:21:51 > 0:21:55MUFFLED SOUND

0:21:58 > 0:22:01MUSIC PLAYING

0:22:01 > 0:22:04In a few minutes, you can drink it, if you still want it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:07Look at it.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12I'm an alcoholic too. I understand your need.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17But what happens if you drink that one?

0:22:17 > 0:22:18I'll drink another one.

0:22:18 > 0:22:23- Then what?- I'd keep going till I get to oblivion.

0:22:23 > 0:22:24Then hell.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31You know where it takes you and you still want to pick it up.

0:22:31 > 0:22:32Is that sane?

0:22:33 > 0:22:35No.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37No, it's not sane.

0:22:40 > 0:22:45You give your life over to King Alcohol.

0:22:45 > 0:22:46Every time.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Is that true?

0:22:52 > 0:22:54Who is king?

0:22:55 > 0:22:56Say it.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00The booze is king.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03Not king, no. It is God.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05You give your life to it.

0:23:05 > 0:23:06Say it.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11The booze is God.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18My wife knows what a vile piece of scum I am.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23I can't bear it!

0:23:24 > 0:23:26I can't bear being me.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30I say you can bear it. I say you are bearing it right now.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Are you bearing it right now?

0:23:37 > 0:23:40You hate yourself. We alcoholics all do.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44That's why booze is not your problem, it's your solution.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46You need it to escape being you.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49But that makes you powerless.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54So my question for you is...

0:23:56 > 0:23:57..are you beat?

0:24:00 > 0:24:01Yes.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07Are you done?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Don't say it for me. Don't say it for your kids or your wife.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Say it because you know it in your soul.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17I am done.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57- Tell me.- 66.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59OK, get it packed.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Morning, Mum.

0:25:07 > 0:25:11- Come on.- Morning, Mum.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18See you, Mum.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35Bye.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51Dad?

0:25:51 > 0:25:54I know where there are some bottles at home if you want them.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56I can get them for you.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01It's OK, Charlie.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04I don't want to drink today.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45The Commissioner made an announcement this morning.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50They have forensic evidence from the crime scene.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54They're looking for some bloody street drunk called Frank Waters.

0:26:54 > 0:26:56- Why now?- What do you mean?

0:26:56 > 0:27:00How come they've suddenly got evidence, after weeks of nothing?

0:27:00 > 0:27:02How come they name a suspect today?

0:27:03 > 0:27:05Daniel, this is good news, isn't it?

0:27:13 > 0:27:14A drunk.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16That's it. Some drunk killed my father

0:27:16 > 0:27:19- because he happened to rob him? - We don't know yet.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23- Let's see what they come up with. - Well, they might find him.

0:27:23 > 0:27:24They might be right.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27It was him. He came into that alleyway and he did it.

0:27:27 > 0:27:32But that doesn't say why my father was there. Why does no-one ask that?

0:27:36 > 0:27:38It keeps sort of jumping into my mind.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42The night it happened, that was the day before

0:27:42 > 0:27:44the bids for the contract.

0:27:44 > 0:27:48I keep thinking my dad being killed has something to do with that.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10We're not giving all the city's money to some corporation.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13We're giving it back to the people who live here.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15That's government by emotion, Daniel.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18It won't cook. When I first spoke to you in the hospital,

0:28:18 > 0:28:20you said you didn't want this job. Remember why?

0:28:20 > 0:28:22You said you weren't up to it.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Now look at you. You're talking like a conviction politician.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17I know what I should do. I should go to the police and tell them

0:29:17 > 0:29:19my husband killed Henry Pulis.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23But if I go that way, my whole life is shattered.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27I want to know all of it.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33I get information for Henry.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38Quotes, contract information,

0:29:38 > 0:29:41so he could pitch his own offer at the right place.

0:29:43 > 0:29:44He paid me.

0:29:44 > 0:29:49There's a lot of money to be made in council contracts. Millions.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53I told myself, "I deserve this.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56"I'm entitled.

0:29:56 > 0:29:57"I can get away with this."

0:30:00 > 0:30:02I could shut all feeling down with booze,

0:30:02 > 0:30:05so it didn't matter.

0:30:05 > 0:30:09But then you look at your kids and you think, "Who am I?"

0:30:12 > 0:30:15I don't want to tell them it was you.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18I don't want you involved.

0:30:19 > 0:30:23- It's past that now. There is no other way.- If the police find out,

0:37:42 > 0:37:45- You found the vagrant. - 'Yeah.'

0:37:45 > 0:37:49Yeah. But now there's something bothering me.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51I want to come and see you.

0:37:51 > 0:37:52'When?'

0:37:53 > 0:37:54How about now?

0:38:00 > 0:38:03- I have a committee meeting. - If I were you, Mr Mayor,

0:38:03 > 0:38:05I'd want to hear what I have to say.

0:38:16 > 0:38:17I found him.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22I knew I'd find him if I wanted to.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29They shut me out of that investigation

0:38:29 > 0:38:32because I'm not one of DI Griffin's pets.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36They're saying that, er...

0:38:36 > 0:38:40he walked off the bridge and he must have been the drunk of all drunks

0:38:40 > 0:38:44because he had money on him and it all adds up neat, like maths.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47Yeah, I got them. But then I noticed something.

0:38:52 > 0:38:56I noticed how smooth it all is, and I'm not used to smooth.

0:38:56 > 0:38:59Smooth does not follow me round.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03And the way DI Griffin is talking to me, telling me what a good boy I am,

0:39:03 > 0:39:06it's just... It's starting to make my skin itch.

0:39:06 > 0:39:10Because when everything is so good...

0:39:12 > 0:39:13..it has to be bad.

0:39:15 > 0:39:17You understand that, Mr Mayor?

0:39:18 > 0:39:20So I go back.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23And I find a couple of drunks who knew Waters.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27'And what they tell me is he disappeared from The Mission Bell

0:39:27 > 0:39:30'in the middle of the night with some guy.

0:39:30 > 0:39:34'The drunks assumed it was police.'

0:39:34 > 0:39:36So I checked.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40No police contact with Waters in the days before his death.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45Waters is then found and next,

0:39:45 > 0:39:47I tell DI Griffin what I've discovered

0:39:47 > 0:39:50and he's pleased and he's grateful.

0:39:50 > 0:39:54Tells me, "Don't... Ssh! Don't tell anyone."

0:39:54 > 0:39:57And he's talking to me like I'm one of his pets.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59So what's he done about it?

0:39:59 > 0:40:02Do you really think I'd be talking to you here

0:40:02 > 0:40:04if he was cracking the whip to chase it down?

0:40:04 > 0:40:06And why wouldn't he?

0:40:06 > 0:40:09Well, maybe he's so convinced that we got it right

0:40:09 > 0:40:12- that what I say just bounces off him.- And you don't think so?

0:40:12 > 0:40:15Unlikely. Or maybe he doesn't like the mess.

0:40:15 > 0:40:18We've got to tidy. He wants to keep it all...tidy.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20You're not buying?

0:40:20 > 0:40:21Unlikely.

0:40:25 > 0:40:29So it's not conviction and it's not negligence. What does that leave?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Well, let's just call it...

0:40:33 > 0:40:34..a mystery.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40Oh, another thing.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43Griffin was pretty matey with Henry Pulis.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Wouldn't that make him all the more determined to find the right killer?

0:40:49 > 0:40:50It would me.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54It would you, wouldn't it?

0:40:57 > 0:41:00You were pretty friendly with Pulis too, Mr Mayor.

0:41:00 > 0:41:04Do you want me to go to the Commissioner, Detective?

0:41:04 > 0:41:07One thing that bothers me is that Griffin loves being a cop.

0:41:07 > 0:41:12- If he's crooked, then so is Jesus. - Why did you come here?

0:41:12 > 0:41:14- What do you want me to do? - Two things - don't mention me,

0:41:14 > 0:41:17don't mention the information I've given you.

0:41:17 > 0:41:22Find a reason to make smoke for the Commissioner and DI Griffin.

0:41:22 > 0:41:25Maybe use Pulis's daughter. She doesn't like the way things are going.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28You make a noise here and I'm going to watch them from the inside.

0:41:28 > 0:41:31I'm going to dig around. And if they should suddenly find dope

0:41:31 > 0:41:34in my locker or child pornography on my computer,

0:41:34 > 0:41:36and I'm discredited,

0:41:36 > 0:41:39suspended, arrested, I'm going to come to you.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43This conversation is my insurance.

0:41:55 > 0:41:56Sorry.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06OK. Here's what we're looking at.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09We've made some informal soundings with the management of Services.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11They're going to put together a business plan,

0:42:11 > 0:42:13based on the idea of a workers' co-operative.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17Now, obviously the biggest problem is getting this organised.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19How to go from nothing to a functioning operation.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22I don't believe that is the biggest problem, Mr Mayor.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24The real danger is the risk.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26It's nice to assume that all will go well,

0:42:26 > 0:42:27but what happens if they go bust?

0:42:27 > 0:42:29Who carries the can?

0:42:29 > 0:42:31The taxpayer, just like the old days.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33We have to ask ourselves, who are we doing this for?

0:42:33 > 0:42:36A few hundred people that sweep the roads, maintain the parks.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Is our obligation to them?

0:42:38 > 0:42:41Or is it to the entire population of this city?

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Our mission isn't to be charitable.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45It's to be smart.

0:42:45 > 0:42:48Our purse is empty. Are we willing to raise taxes?

0:42:55 > 0:42:58This is a company called Danto Global. Quality for less.

0:42:58 > 0:43:02Their costs are lower because they buy big and they have

0:43:02 > 0:43:05the systems already in place. They're the experts, basically.

0:43:05 > 0:43:09Thank you, Jerry, that gives us two clear alternatives.

0:43:09 > 0:43:10Bear in mind I've now spoken to Danto.

0:43:10 > 0:43:13If they were to get the contract on a 20-year deal,

0:43:13 > 0:43:17they're prepared to come in with some serious investment.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20Like the Lexworth School Project, which has been dropped.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26Well, the devil certainly has a very powerful advocate.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39'What's been nagging at you?'

0:43:43 > 0:43:46The night Dad was killed was the night before the bids and tenders

0:43:46 > 0:43:49- for the contract renewal. - And why do you think that matters?

0:43:49 > 0:43:51I think my father might have...

0:43:53 > 0:43:55I don't know how to say this.

0:43:56 > 0:44:00I think he corrupted the contract process.

0:44:00 > 0:44:03Well, that's a pretty big conclusion to get to.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06If he was going to do that, who would be in it with him?

0:44:06 > 0:44:07Me.

0:44:09 > 0:44:13If he had won a contract, my father was going to sell his business.

0:44:13 > 0:44:15It was all done, in place.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18He was going to walk away with millions.

0:44:18 > 0:44:21Who was he going to sell to?

0:44:21 > 0:44:23A company called Danto.

0:44:25 > 0:44:27If there was someone on the inside working with him,

0:44:27 > 0:44:30how do we find that person?

0:44:33 > 0:44:34They'd be in there.

0:45:13 > 0:45:16Why are we meeting here, Daniel?

0:45:16 > 0:45:19This isn't a dress for a car park.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24- Maybe it is.- This is all going to stop now, Sylvie.

0:45:24 > 0:45:27We've been waiting all of our lives for this.

0:45:27 > 0:45:30This is not love. I was in blackout.

0:45:30 > 0:45:32I was in alcoholic blackout when I was with you.

0:45:32 > 0:45:35- No.- I don't remember what I said.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37- It wasn't me talking to you.- No.

0:45:37 > 0:45:39This is not real.

0:45:39 > 0:45:41You don't need me.

0:45:42 > 0:45:44You have two children.

0:45:48 > 0:45:50They need you to grow up.

0:45:52 > 0:45:55I want you to know that you're safe. I won't mention your name.

0:45:55 > 0:45:56You're safe from me.

0:45:57 > 0:46:00You're saying this to protect me.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02That's love.

0:46:04 > 0:46:06Go home, Sylvie.

0:46:06 > 0:46:08Please.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10Go home.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07VOICES OUTSIDE ROOM

0:47:43 > 0:47:45BANGING

0:48:02 > 0:48:06RAGGED BREATHING

0:48:33 > 0:48:34Ah!

0:48:45 > 0:48:49Luke, how do you get past this PR bullshit?

0:49:01 > 0:49:03PHONE RINGS

0:49:10 > 0:49:12Hi, Ruth.

0:49:12 > 0:49:14They took it!

0:49:14 > 0:49:16They took it all.

0:49:16 > 0:49:19His files, his laptop, everything.

0:49:44 > 0:49:47If I may, just to fill you all in quickly.

0:49:47 > 0:49:50If this co-operative was to even get off the ground,

0:49:50 > 0:49:53then we're needing plant equipment,

0:49:53 > 0:49:55machinery, vehicles. They're looking for a start-up loan.

0:49:55 > 0:49:57As you said yourself, Daniel, they have nothing.

0:49:57 > 0:50:00So I got them speaking to the banks.

0:50:00 > 0:50:03Then I spoke with every possible source,

0:50:03 > 0:50:06and no-one's prepared to take them on. The numbers are too big.

0:50:06 > 0:50:10So the management have now accepted that it's simply not possible.

0:50:10 > 0:50:13They've looked at the dangers to themselves, to the operation,

0:50:13 > 0:50:17- and they admit it's out of reach. - You've been through all this with them?

0:50:17 > 0:50:20I've been trying to get hold of you, Daniel, nail you down on this,

0:50:20 > 0:50:21but you're not taking my calls.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26Shall I go on?

0:50:26 > 0:50:27Yeah, do.

0:50:29 > 0:50:31So now it looks like we're back to the original offers.

0:50:31 > 0:50:33Plus Danto.

0:50:33 > 0:50:36What they are proposing is massive.

0:50:36 > 0:50:40It's ambitious. It's way beyond the scope of just providing services.

0:50:40 > 0:50:42Not only that, they will guarantee jobs

0:50:42 > 0:50:46for everyone currently employed by the city.

0:50:54 > 0:50:57Daniel? There's a woman who's called

0:50:57 > 0:51:00to speak with you four times today.

0:51:00 > 0:51:01Says her name's Roxy.

0:51:01 > 0:51:03OK, just leave it with me.

0:51:06 > 0:51:09I thought you understood. You said you accepted.

0:51:09 > 0:51:13'I do accept. But something happened.'

0:51:14 > 0:51:15I had, like, this panic attack.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18I couldn't breathe, just kept seeing what happened in my head.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Seeing you in that alleyway.

0:51:20 > 0:51:22- Sylvie...- I have protected you.

0:51:22 > 0:51:24I haven't told anyone.

0:51:24 > 0:51:28No-one. I just need you to help me.

0:51:28 > 0:51:30Talk to me.

0:51:30 > 0:51:32Well, what can I do?

0:51:32 > 0:51:34Meet me. I just need to talk.

0:51:34 > 0:51:37I have nightmares.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39You're the only person I can talk to about this.

0:51:39 > 0:51:40OK.

0:51:40 > 0:51:43OK, Sylvie.

0:52:05 > 0:52:07Is that yours or mine?

0:52:07 > 0:52:09Just take whatever ones you want.

0:52:09 > 0:52:13I'm clearing my stuff out of the way. Clean break.

0:52:13 > 0:52:16And I appreciate it.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18Is it OK to use the toilet?

0:52:48 > 0:52:49BEEPING

0:52:49 > 0:52:51'GPS activated.'

0:52:56 > 0:52:58Is this mine?

0:52:58 > 0:53:01Ask before you start snooping around in my room.

0:53:02 > 0:53:04I miss it.

0:53:36 > 0:53:40I'd just like to take you all through this new tendering document for the city.

0:53:40 > 0:53:43- If we start by looking at finance...- Jerry.

0:53:44 > 0:53:46The problem we have in setting up the co-operative

0:53:46 > 0:53:49is being able to afford the plant equipment.

0:53:49 > 0:53:51In other words, the problem is money.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53The banks won't lend it.

0:53:53 > 0:53:56But what if we don't need it?

0:53:57 > 0:53:58If I may?

0:53:58 > 0:54:03Ruth Pulis knows that this city has been good to her father.

0:54:03 > 0:54:05And she wants to do something in return.

0:54:05 > 0:54:07She'd tell you herself,

0:54:07 > 0:54:10but she has difficulty speaking at the moment.

0:54:10 > 0:54:11She was attacked in her own home.

0:54:11 > 0:54:14Ruth is proposing that the new co-operative

0:54:14 > 0:54:18takes on the existing plant from her father's company,

0:54:18 > 0:54:22and a repayment package be arranged over ten years.

0:54:22 > 0:54:23How does that sound?

0:54:32 > 0:54:34Anyone want salt?

0:54:34 > 0:54:36GENERAL CHATTER

0:54:51 > 0:54:54PHONE BEEPS

0:56:35 > 0:56:37I can see it sometimes.

0:56:40 > 0:56:43When I'm on my own.

0:56:43 > 0:56:46I see that man on the ground in the rain.

0:56:52 > 0:56:55I can't get it out of my head.

0:57:21 > 0:57:24'I just want to see you sometimes.'

0:57:24 > 0:57:27Be with you.

0:57:27 > 0:57:32So I don't feel like I'm on my own with this.

0:57:44 > 0:57:45Hold me, please.

0:57:45 > 0:57:47I just want to be held.

0:58:17 > 0:58:19Police!

0:58:39 > 0:58:41Why do I get the feeling I'm lost?

0:58:41 > 0:58:43Because you are.

0:58:43 > 0:58:45What does that mean?

0:58:45 > 0:58:48What you do, Mr Mayor, is what you're told to do.

0:58:48 > 0:58:50Secrets will kill you, Daniel.

0:58:50 > 0:58:54Who's covering this up? Is it Griffin?

0:58:54 > 0:58:55If anything happens to my daughter,

0:58:55 > 0:58:58the last thing I'll do on this earth is come after you!
