0:00:43 > 0:00:45So, morning team briefing.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49I thought we should sharpen things up a little and start each day as we...

0:00:49 > 0:00:51mean to go on.

0:00:51 > 0:00:52Fidel?

0:00:54 > 0:00:57RINGS BELL

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Oh.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Sorry, chief.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05It's just that Crazy Ally was throwing a Full Moon party

0:01:05 > 0:01:07last night and, well...

0:01:07 > 0:01:11Yeah, your self destructive link to the lunar cycle

0:01:11 > 0:01:15is well documented so, er, let's just leave it there, shall we?

0:01:15 > 0:01:16All of it.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20You think it'll be quiet here again today?

0:01:20 > 0:01:22The phone hardly rang at all yesterday.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26It's too hot. No-one's got enough energy to break the law.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33Ms Smythe.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Carlton. Lovely day.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47There is a positive aspect to the phone not ringing.

0:01:47 > 0:01:50No crimes being committed!

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Peace and goodwill abounding. Hmm?

0:01:54 > 0:01:57And it reflects very well on the department.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01If you're bored, chief, there's always the crossword.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Yeah, with respect, it's not exactly the Times, is it? Come on.

0:02:06 > 0:02:11OK. One across. Three letters, begins with S.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15"It is blue and is all around you."

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Hmm, that's a tricky one.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20It's sea. It's blue and all around you. We're on an island.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22- It's the sea.- Or sky.

0:02:23 > 0:02:24Tricky.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53SHE SCREAMS

0:03:32 > 0:03:35So, er, what do we know about this place?

0:03:35 > 0:03:39The Jacaranda Clinic. Specialises in cosmetic procedures.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41- Very exclusive.- You mean expensive?

0:03:41 > 0:03:42Well, you book in for a face lift,

0:03:42 > 0:03:45then spend the next two weeks sitting by the pool.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48By which time all trace of the surgeon's knife has disappeared.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50And the secret of your eternal youth is safe for another year.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54The clinic is owned by an English surgeon, Jeremy Tipping.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56He's been on the island for years.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Got the big yacht in the harbour and everything.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02A real beauty. Even has a Jacuzzi!

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Police. We've come about the corpse?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Impressive.- Mmmmm.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15I meant the ambience. Clearly.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19- Vivaldi?- Well, it gives me the creeps. It's so impersonal.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22They all arrive in their big black cars and then just disappear again.

0:04:22 > 0:04:25I doubt if anyone here sees anything of the island.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28It's just like they've never actually been here at all.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Ah! Inspector?

0:04:32 > 0:04:33This way.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42No, I haven't had a face lift, Inspector.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45I come here for physiotherapy. An old sports injury.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Mala. My physiotherapist.

0:04:50 > 0:04:51Beautiful hands.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Her name was Valerie Dupree.

0:04:58 > 0:04:59French.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02Apparently her husband had just left her for a younger woman.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06So, the staff and I think it's a simple case of suicide.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07- Do you know if she could swim?- Yes.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10I understand she swam most evenings.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13How sad you must be to take your own life.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Well, let's not jump to conclusions.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Selwyn! Hello!- Jeremy.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22This is Detective Inspector Richard Poole, Sergeant Bordey.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25A pleasure. I'm sorry we're not meeting in better circumstances.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Quite. And Mrs Dupree was last seen alive when?

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Erm, I understand her nurse saw her yesterday evening.

0:05:31 > 0:05:32And the body was discovered?

0:05:32 > 0:05:35First thing this morning. One of our guests found her.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38We will try to keep the disruption to a minimum, Jeremy.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41Isn't that right, Inspector?

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Yes. Absolutely.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Good. Well I'll just go and get dressed.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Er, the ambulance has been held up,

0:06:04 > 0:06:07so Dwayne and Fidel are moving the body inside.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Mmmm?- Out of sight.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Oh right, yeah.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15You know this pot's been moved.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18And, er, it's been chipped. Look.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21This is just awful. The poor woman.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- I-I-I was just in town, I just got back.- And you are?

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Sorry, erm, I'm Anna Jones. Erm, Doctor Anna Jones.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30- You work here? - Yes, I'm the general manager.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32- But you're a doctor?- Of psychology.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Oh?- Part of my job is that I screen the clients.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38Oh, so, you must have examined Mrs Dupree?

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Er, yeah, I did.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Erm, which I'm not feeling particularly comfortable with right now.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45She was clearly depressed.

0:06:45 > 0:06:49Her husband of 25 years had just started divorce proceedings.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53But I, I honestly thought that the cosmetic procedure

0:06:53 > 0:06:57would give her a fresh start, you know, help her feelings of low self esteem.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- But, erm, clearly I was wrong. - PHONE RINGS

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Sorry, I'm so sorry.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Hello?

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Hi, yes, Mrs Katzenburg. Mm-hmm, yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:07:08 > 0:07:12Can I call you back? Yes, in five minutes. Thank you. OK, bye.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Is there anything else I can help you with?

0:07:16 > 0:07:18If we could just see Mrs Dupree's room?

0:07:18 > 0:07:21- Then we can get out of your way. - Yes, absolutely. It's this way.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27- Sir?- Hmm, yes, yeah.

0:07:27 > 0:07:28Coming.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Erm, Carlton here took care of her,

0:07:34 > 0:07:36- so he can show you everything you need.- Thank you.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- PHONE RINGS - Oh, sorry about this.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Erm, yes?

0:07:42 > 0:07:43Right, aha.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46So, how well did you know Mrs Dupree?

0:07:46 > 0:07:48It was her first visit here.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52And you last saw her, when?

0:07:52 > 0:07:54Drug round. 'Bout 9.30pm?

0:07:54 > 0:07:58All the patients get heparin, Mr Tipping is very insistent.

0:07:58 > 0:07:59Heparin?

0:07:59 > 0:08:01An injectable anticoagulant.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05Enables wound-healing by preventing blood clot formation.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Right.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11So you gave her the injection as normal?

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Sure.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15Same as every night.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Did you speak to her?

0:08:20 > 0:08:23Dr Jones is very particular.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25She doesn't encourage conversation with the clients.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29So, assuming she died some time that night,

0:08:29 > 0:08:32you may well be the last person to see her alive?

0:08:32 > 0:08:34I couldn't say.

0:08:34 > 0:08:35She was my last patient on the round.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I just give her the injection and go straight home.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43All right, thank you. We'll be fine from here.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52No note?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Do you know what this is?

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Er, hmm, tea?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Not any old tea.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04This is Da Hong Pao.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05Hmmm?

0:09:05 > 0:09:07You know, gram for gram this is more expensive than gold.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Camellia sinensis, if I recall correctly.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20You know when Nixon visited China,

0:09:20 > 0:09:23they gave him two ounces of this as a gift.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Two ounces! Imagine.

0:09:29 > 0:09:33- It's half empty. A little strange, don't you think?- Why?

0:09:33 > 0:09:37Well you go to the trouble of making yourself a cup of the most expensive tea in the world...

0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Oh, I love this bag!- Ahem!

0:09:39 > 0:09:43You go to the trouble of making yourself a cup of the most expensive tea in the world

0:09:43 > 0:09:47and then halfway through, you put down the cup, go out to the pool and drown yourself?

0:09:47 > 0:09:50People can be spontaneous. They do strange things.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53I disagree.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56You know, throughout my career I've found them to be surprisingly predictable,

0:09:56 > 0:10:00provided you truly understand their motives, of course.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03So, why drink only half a cup of tea?

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Maybe she used it to wash down the rest of these?

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- Diazepam.- Mm-hmm.

0:10:15 > 0:10:16Sleeping tablets.

0:10:16 > 0:10:20Tea or no tea, the truth is that this woman felt so alone,

0:10:20 > 0:10:23so miserable, that she'd take her own life.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25While I disapprove of assumptions in principle,

0:10:25 > 0:10:27in this case, you may be right.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31There's nothing here. Let's go.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41I know what you're thinking, Sergeant Bordey, but this is very probably the last thing she drank

0:10:41 > 0:10:44before she committed suicide and, as such, we should test it.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46You mean you should test it?

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Absolutely.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57I'm surprised they don't get that fixed, the money they charge.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00Must be like being pushed around on a supermarket trolley.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04We found this in her dressing gown pocket, sir. Nothing else.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07Well, see what you can recover from it. Last calls, surviving prints.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10We may at least be able to determine time of death for the coroner.

0:11:10 > 0:11:11Sure.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Well, team? All finished?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21- Yes.- And?

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Most likely suicide.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25So, just as I said?

0:11:25 > 0:11:27- Yes.- Apart from the tea.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33- The tea?- Yes, Valerie Dupree made herself an expensive pot of tea,

0:11:33 > 0:11:34yet failed to drink it.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44There are some important people at the clinic, Inspector.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Rich people with great influence.

0:11:46 > 0:11:51All of whom we want to welcome to the island with open arms.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53I'm sure you understand me?

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Yes, sir.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Liming?

0:12:14 > 0:12:16- Is that a word?- Of course it is.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19It means hanging out with your friends and having a beer.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22- You know, taking it easy. Relaxing. - Really? Mm.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28Well, it fits.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30COMPUTER PINGS

0:12:32 > 0:12:35The pathologist's report on the suicide lady.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36- So it is suicide?- Seems so.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41Cause of death - hypoxia, cardiac arrest.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Chlorinated water found in lungs,

0:12:43 > 0:12:47correlates with suicide by drowning, no sign of trauma.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Apart from...

0:12:50 > 0:12:54Recent surgery to the face, thought to be cosmetic in nature.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Blood tests showed traces of glycosaminoglycan,

0:12:56 > 0:13:00which tallies with reported anticoagulant unfractionated heparin.

0:13:00 > 0:13:01That's it.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04What about the diazepam?

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Sir?

0:13:06 > 0:13:08In her blood.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09There's no sign of that here.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12But we found an empty bottle of diazepam in her room.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14That's what we assumed she took.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Well, there's nothing here.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18It could have worked its way through her system?

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Not a dose big enough to knock her out.

0:13:20 > 0:13:25What about her medical records? Any history of blackouts, fainting?

0:13:25 > 0:13:26No.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30Any long term medical condition at all? Epilepsy? Seizures?

0:13:30 > 0:13:32No, nothing. Maybe she just slipped and fell?

0:13:32 > 0:13:36Then where's the trauma? A lump or swelling? Broken skin?

0:13:36 > 0:13:37There isn't any.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44So, a reasonably fit and able swimmer, Valerie Dupree,

0:13:44 > 0:13:47makes herself a very expensive cup of tea

0:13:47 > 0:13:49then takes barely a single sip

0:13:49 > 0:13:51before leaving her room

0:13:51 > 0:13:55and walking to the swimming pool and throwing herself in.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Then, using nothing more than her own willpower,

0:13:59 > 0:14:03she holds herself down under the water until she drowns.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05So you're saying it wasn't a suicide?

0:14:05 > 0:14:08And it couldn't have been an accident?

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Which means?

0:14:10 > 0:14:13Somehow, as unlikely as it seems...

0:14:15 > 0:14:16..I think she was murdered.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Well, the pathologist's report was clear -

0:14:24 > 0:14:28there were no other factors in her death - she drowned.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29How can that be?

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Maybe someone held her in the pool.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35The only logical explanation. And yet...

0:14:35 > 0:14:37What?

0:14:37 > 0:14:39Well, imagine you're taking a midnight swim

0:14:39 > 0:14:41and I decide to drown you.

0:14:41 > 0:14:42What do you do?

0:14:44 > 0:14:45Aaargh!

0:14:46 > 0:14:50- OK, let me rephrase that. You're not a trained police officer.- I'm not?

0:14:50 > 0:14:55No, you're a depressed woman with no apparent aptitude for self defence.

0:14:55 > 0:15:00Oh, OK, all right. Well, then, I'm drowning, struggling for air,

0:15:00 > 0:15:01I guess I'd struggle.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05Yet the victim showed no signs of restraint bruising

0:15:05 > 0:15:10to the neck or shoulders. No hyoid bone fracture, you know.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13Try and subdue her and her characteristic injury patterns

0:15:13 > 0:15:16would be impossible to avoid.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Well, what if it was just a little push down in the back of the...?

0:15:19 > 0:15:20No, you don't, no, you don't.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23No, I mean, whichever way you do it, I think we've established

0:15:23 > 0:15:25it's impossible to hold someone down, under water,

0:15:25 > 0:15:28without giving them so much as a bruise.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32And then there's the tea conundrum.

0:15:32 > 0:15:34Detective Inspector.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37- Is there a problem? - I'm afraid there is.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Perhaps you could enlighten me.

0:15:39 > 0:15:40We're no longer sure

0:15:40 > 0:15:43that Valerie Dupree's drowning was a suicide.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45I don't... I don't think I understand.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47You're suggesting it was some kind of accident?

0:15:47 > 0:15:49I'm suggesting she was murdered.

0:15:51 > 0:15:52Well, that's nonsense.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55We're going to need a complete list of your staff and clients.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58But just hang on a minute, what are you basing this assertion on?

0:15:58 > 0:15:59Well, that's a police matter.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01If you could just provide me with what I've asked for.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04Absolutely not. That's confidential information.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Sorry, but as I'm now treating this as a murder enquiry, I must insist.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08We can always get a warrant.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11And until the investigation is complete, I'm going to have to

0:16:11 > 0:16:14request that you close the clinic, temporarily.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17No-one enters, no-one leaves. And we'll be confiscating passports.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19You're imprisoning my clients?

0:16:19 > 0:16:21Just until the interviews have been completed

0:16:21 > 0:16:24and they've been eliminated from our enquiries.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36I mean, the poor woman was just floating there. Face down!

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Can I ask you how well you knew Mrs Dupree?

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Oh, not at all really.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42I mean, we just passed the time of day.

0:16:42 > 0:16:47Her husband was rich, I know that. She was a feisty one.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49You should have heard her on the phone to him.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52Well, one assumes it was her husband.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55One couldn't help overhearing.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57She was quite animated about something.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Would you say she was angry or upset?

0:17:00 > 0:17:01I'd say both.

0:17:01 > 0:17:06I mean, everyone divorces in the same language, don't they?

0:17:06 > 0:17:10Besides, after three useless husbands, one learns the signs.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12So you're not married now?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15I was. Yes.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Three tries to finally get it right

0:17:18 > 0:17:21and then my darling number four goes and dies on me.

0:17:22 > 0:17:23You must miss him.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Yes, I do.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Terribly.

0:17:29 > 0:17:30He was...

0:17:31 > 0:17:32..a force of nature.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36We just had so much fun together.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Well, if you want to have some fun,

0:17:38 > 0:17:41maybe you should see some more of our island.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Why come all this way and not experience it?

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Well, because everything I need is right here.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51If you change your mind and want to see more of the real Saint Marie,

0:17:51 > 0:17:53this is my mother's bar.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57Oh, thank you. That's very kind.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59My pleasure.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01OK, I think we're done here.

0:18:01 > 0:18:06So if you think there is anything else might be important?

0:18:06 > 0:18:09Well, since you ask.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15Now, I'm not one to gossip, but I had started to wonder

0:18:15 > 0:18:20whether she wasn't one of those older women who prey on younger men.

0:18:20 > 0:18:21- Oh.- Sexually.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25Yes. Anyone in particular?

0:18:25 > 0:18:26Ah.

0:18:28 > 0:18:32I think they were having some kind of lover's tiff.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34I couldn't hear what was being said

0:18:34 > 0:18:37but it all sounded terribly passionate.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47I appreciate you've got more questions,

0:18:47 > 0:18:49but my patient's already on the table.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52Well, quite frankly, as head of this establishment,

0:18:52 > 0:18:55I would hope that I could count on your cooperation.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58Yes, yes, well, quite right.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Look, why don't we both act like proper Englishmen and compromise?

0:19:03 > 0:19:04Come and join me in theatre

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- and I'll do my best to answer your questions there.- Theatre?

0:19:07 > 0:19:09Actually, it'll be nice to have some time to chew the fat

0:19:09 > 0:19:11with a fellow countryman.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Changing room's this way.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17So you weren't in a relationship with her?

0:19:17 > 0:19:18Absolutely not.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- Then can I ask you where you were that night?- In my room.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Alone?- Yeah. Worse luck.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Hmm.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Is there anything else I can help you with?

0:19:28 > 0:19:30Yes. I'd like your passport.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Can we get some more light here, please? I can't see a thing.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46It's like trying to operate in The Black Hole of Calcutta.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Oh, slightly better.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Ah, you're operating on her...

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Right. Good.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Not sure this is quite the...

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Beautiful woman, perfectly equipped.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03Now, you tell me,

0:20:03 > 0:20:05are these too small?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Well, I wouldn't...

0:20:07 > 0:20:08Hold this for me, would you?

0:20:13 > 0:20:15I did what I always do.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19Worked until ten and then I went home, took the phone off the hook.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22With a job like this, you need your downtime.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Clients can be pretty demanding.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28I can imagine. And Dr Tipping?

0:20:28 > 0:20:29Mr.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32He's a surgeon. They're always a Mr.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Don't forget it. It's guaranteed to set him off.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38So, he can be difficult?

0:20:38 > 0:20:42He has a temper. But he's an artist, A perfectionist,

0:20:42 > 0:20:45and people like that need everything to be just so.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47I spent the night on my yacht.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50Caught up on a bit of correspondence,

0:20:50 > 0:20:53polished off the last of the single malt and then turned in.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56And can anyone confirm that or..?

0:20:56 > 0:20:57You could take my word for it.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02Failing that, the harbour master should back me up.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Our clientele are rich, important people.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08You can understand why they insist on total discretion.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11Which is why you discourage your nurses from even talking to them?

0:21:11 > 0:21:16We're a sanctuary, Detective Bordey. There's no autographs, no chit-chat.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Our staff are paid well to obey the rules.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20This is a business first and a hospital second.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22- PHONE RINGS - Oh, sorry.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Hello? Uh-huh. OK, yeah, Tell her I can deal with it right away.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Look, I have to deal with this.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32If there's anything else I can help you with?

0:21:38 > 0:21:40Could you...? Finger should do it.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50To tell the truth, economic meltdown and all that, we were,

0:21:50 > 0:21:52we were struggling.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Anna came along with a new marketing strategy, encouraged me

0:21:54 > 0:21:56to push the whole privacy thing.

0:21:56 > 0:22:00Top class clients, total discretion assured.

0:22:00 > 0:22:04And now here we are - one big, happy family.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Light! I need light for God's sake!

0:22:09 > 0:22:12Hot stones, sauna, they're virtually sauteed

0:22:12 > 0:22:15then they lie out in the sun, which basically amounts to grilling.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18Why don't they just go the whole hog and pop themselves in the microwave?

0:22:18 > 0:22:21- Have you finished? - Sorry, was I ranting?- Yes.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24Well, quite frankly, Camille, some things qualify for a rant.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26I'm not sure what the exact criterion is,

0:22:26 > 0:22:27but I'm pretty sure it'd include

0:22:27 > 0:22:30holding a stranger's nipple in place while someone else sews it on!

0:22:30 > 0:22:32SHE LAUGHS

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Well, I'm glad you find it amusing, I could be scarred for life.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37- Now, where were we?- Oh, yes, where?

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Mrs Dupree was last seen around 9.30pm by her nurse,

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Carlton Reynolds. He gave her medication of heparin.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47Dr Jones finished work and left the clinic shortly after 10pm

0:22:47 > 0:22:49and spent the evening alone at home.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Mr Tipping said he was on his boat.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54The harbour master confirms he saw lights on the boat,

0:22:54 > 0:22:57though, of course, that doesn't mean he was actually there.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59One thing did come up, though - Jayne Smythe thought that

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Mrs Dupree may have had a lover's tiff with one of the other guests.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06- Who?- Paul Vincent. He denies the liaison.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09Says he's having a... blepharoplasty?

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Eyelid tuck, from the Greek. And do you believe him?

0:23:12 > 0:23:14About Mrs Dupree?

0:23:14 > 0:23:17Oh, yes, I do.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21Chief! The Commissioner's at the station, he's looking for you.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23He doesn't seem very happy.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40I thought I made it perfectly clear.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44Any disruption at the clinic was to be kept to an absolute minimum.

0:23:45 > 0:23:49Next you're confiscating passports?

0:23:49 > 0:23:52Then you announce it's no longer a suicide,

0:23:52 > 0:23:54but a full blown murder enquiry.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Yes, well, there were significant inconsistencies.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Inconsistencies?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01- Yes, sir.- Such as?

0:24:01 > 0:24:03Well, we were led to believe that Valerie Dupree

0:24:03 > 0:24:07drowned despite being fit, healthy and a competent swimmer.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13We found an empty pill bottle in her room, but no sign of that medication

0:24:13 > 0:24:16in her bloodstream and, and finally,

0:24:16 > 0:24:19she makes herself a very expensive cup of tea

0:24:19 > 0:24:22and walks out and kills herself halfway through drinking it.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24The tea conundrum.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31Tell me, at least you've managed to establish some kind of motive.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35A reason anyone would have wanted her dead?

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Well, we're working on that, sir.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38All right.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43Talk me through the murder. How was she killed?

0:24:46 > 0:24:50- Well, we're working on that, too, sir.- Any evidence of an assault?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53- No, sir.- Witnesses?

0:24:56 > 0:25:01So the sum total of the evidence that led you to put this island's

0:25:01 > 0:25:05most wealthy and most influential people under virtual house arrest

0:25:05 > 0:25:11consists of a few inconsistencies and a half-drunk cup of tea.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45I'm going to let you run with this.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47For now.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Not because I think you're right,

0:25:49 > 0:25:52but simply because there is something I've always wanted

0:25:52 > 0:25:55to say since I joined the force.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59You've got 24 hours to solve this case.

0:26:01 > 0:26:02Do we understand each other?

0:26:04 > 0:26:05Yes, sir.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Sir.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18Commissioner.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28He says he has every faith in us. So let's set up the board.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30- Dwayne.- Chief.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31Go through the passports,

0:26:31 > 0:26:34I want full background checks on everyone at the clinic -

0:26:34 > 0:26:36- staff and guests.- I'm on it. - Fidel.- Sir.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39The victim was seen angry during a phone call. Everyone assumes

0:26:39 > 0:26:42- it was with her wayward husband - let's double check.- Sir.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Camille. I want you to have another crack at this Paul Vincent.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48We have a witness saying they'd had a disagreement.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51If they weren't having an affair, what were they talking about?

0:26:51 > 0:26:53Threaten to arrest him for wasting police time.

0:26:53 > 0:26:54It will be my pleasure.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00I thought we'd done this. I told you, I hardly knew the woman.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Yeah, I believe you weren't having an affair.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06But we still have a witness who saw an argument.

0:27:06 > 0:27:07We weren't arguing.

0:27:07 > 0:27:08Then what?

0:27:08 > 0:27:09Look...

0:27:10 > 0:27:13..how about we make a deal?

0:27:13 > 0:27:17I'll answer your questions if you give me my passport back.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19I run my own business and our biggest client

0:27:19 > 0:27:22is on the verge of switching to a rival supplier.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24What kind of business?

0:27:24 > 0:27:25Flowers.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27So you're a florist?

0:27:27 > 0:27:28It's the perfect product.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Perishable and constant demand.

0:27:31 > 0:27:32I built the firm up from nothing

0:27:32 > 0:27:34and now we've got 20 people on the payroll.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37And if I don't get back to talk to my clients in person

0:27:37 > 0:27:39we'll all be out of a job.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43OK, we can do a deal.

0:27:43 > 0:27:47You answer my questions and maybe I won't arrest you.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Look.

0:27:49 > 0:27:54I tried my best to be nice, but she just wouldn't take no for an answer.

0:27:54 > 0:27:58In the end, I had to make my feelings clear.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02- That's it?- That's it. She didn't like it.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05I didn't want a big drama so I went back to my room and stayed there.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Ah, which means you still have no alibi.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12So business or not, there's no way I can sanction you leaving the island.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14What if someone could prove where I was?

0:28:18 > 0:28:21So you don't deny you spent the whole night in Paul Vincent's room?

0:28:21 > 0:28:24- No.- Then why lie and say you went home?

0:28:24 > 0:28:27I forbid my staff from even starting conversations with the clients.

0:28:27 > 0:28:31So how would it look if they knew I was sleeping with one of them?

0:28:31 > 0:28:35You know, I can't imagine what Mr Tipping would do.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37What time did you go and meet him?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40So I went after I finished work

0:28:40 > 0:28:42and Carlton, he was leaving.

0:28:42 > 0:28:43And what time was that?

0:28:43 > 0:28:46Ten, maybe a few minutes afterwards.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53Paul was waiting for me.

0:28:53 > 0:28:57I know that it was a stupid thing to do,

0:28:57 > 0:29:00but Paul can be a very determined man and that can be hard to resist.

0:29:00 > 0:29:01PHONE RINGS

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Aren't you going to get that?

0:29:05 > 0:29:08No, no, it's fine. That's not important.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12Look, Paul and I spent the entire night together.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14There is no way he could have killed anyone.

0:29:14 > 0:29:18And career or no career, if I have to, I will swear to that in court.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26So am I in the clear?

0:29:26 > 0:29:28Dr Jones has confirmed your alibi.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30So when can I have my passport back?

0:29:30 > 0:29:33All papers will be returned the moment the case is officially closed.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35But if I'm no longer a suspect...

0:29:35 > 0:29:37Hey, she backed you up. She didn't have to.

0:29:37 > 0:29:38Tyre pas trop sur la corde.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42Don't push your luck.

0:29:58 > 0:29:59- SQUAWK! - Oh!

0:30:18 > 0:30:21Chief. Paul Vincent's records.

0:30:21 > 0:30:22All checks out.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26Born right here in Honore Hospital. And no criminal record.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29No-one else at the clinic has anything previous either.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31What about her phone?

0:30:31 > 0:30:33We're still waiting for the network to get back to us.

0:30:35 > 0:30:37If she drowned, she can't have been moved.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40If she was moved, she can't have drowned.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43And why abandon an expensive cup of tea halfway through?

0:30:43 > 0:30:46Well, maybe she was disturbed, she had a visitor

0:30:46 > 0:30:48or she just didn't like it.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50No, no, no, no, this is Da Hong Pao we're talking about.

0:30:50 > 0:30:51It's priceless.

0:30:51 > 0:30:56Which suggests that, for some reason, she couldn't finish it.

0:30:56 > 0:30:57But why?

0:31:02 > 0:31:03Unless...

0:31:06 > 0:31:07If she was poisoned

0:31:07 > 0:31:10- then wouldn't the lab have picked it up in her bloodstream?- Possibly.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13But if I'm right, whatever poisoned her should still be

0:31:13 > 0:31:16present in the tea itself and in a much higher concentration.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Which, in theory, would make it easier to detect

0:31:19 > 0:31:22even with rather rudimentary equipment like this.

0:31:22 > 0:31:23I didn't even know we had this.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26It's actually mine. You know you can get these on the Internet?

0:31:26 > 0:31:28It's still quite functional,

0:31:28 > 0:31:32especially if you pimp it with a little ammonium metavanadate.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35So, anyway, five different chemical reagents.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38Any abnormal chemical groups will react with the appropriate

0:31:38 > 0:31:41reagent and produce an almost instant colour change.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45- How instant is instant? - Any second now.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52- Nothing.- Which means it's just...

0:31:52 > 0:31:53Tea.

0:31:54 > 0:31:55It's just tea.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00OK, so what now?

0:32:00 > 0:32:02I think we should put the kettle on.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33The pot was moved, damaged in the process

0:32:33 > 0:32:37then put back in the wrong place, leaving a ring.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39Now, you've seen the clinic - it's spotless.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42So the cleaner would have cleaned the ring on the floor

0:32:42 > 0:32:44during the daily round.

0:32:44 > 0:32:48So we can infer the damage was done the previous night.

0:32:48 > 0:32:52- But how?- We know there wasn't a struggle - she had no injuries.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55What if she knocked it on the way to the pool?

0:32:55 > 0:32:58A suicidal woman carefully replaces a damaged pot

0:32:58 > 0:33:01before lowering herself silently into the water?

0:33:01 > 0:33:04No. The tea. The tea has to hold the key.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08If it didn't poison her, why prepare it and only drink half a cup?

0:33:08 > 0:33:11She was disturbed. By her killer.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14Carlton Reynolds was the last person to see her.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17- Have you got Dr Jones' new statement?- Yes, it's here.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19She saw Carlton last night, didn't she?

0:33:19 > 0:33:22Yes. She said it was past ten.

0:33:23 > 0:33:27Yes, but he told us he went home around 9.30.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Which gives him 30 minutes to have murdered Valerie Dupree.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39Come. Let's see where he's off to.

0:33:39 > 0:33:40But the inspector said to bring him in.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43Ah, it's called initiative.

0:33:43 > 0:33:46Yeah, it's also called disobeying a direct order from a senior officer.

0:33:46 > 0:33:49Dwayne, and now he's getting away, look.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51ENGINE CHOKES

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Come on, baby.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56OK, how about a sump full of fresh oil?

0:33:56 > 0:33:58And this time I won't get it from the tractor.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00ENGINE PURRS INTO LIFE

0:34:00 > 0:34:02Ah, good girl.

0:34:22 > 0:34:23- What's he doing?- I don't know.

0:34:36 > 0:34:39You know there's absolutely no point in running.

0:34:42 > 0:34:44Hey!

0:34:44 > 0:34:47You see that? Watch and learn.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Go on, you. Don't struggle, you make it worse for yourself.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04That's the fourth time you've tested that tea.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06One can't be too thorough, sergeant.

0:35:09 > 0:35:10Fidel.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14He hit me.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21It's a free clinic. No-one pays a penny.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23I only take what's about to expire -

0:35:23 > 0:35:26half-opened boxes, ready to be disposed of.

0:35:26 > 0:35:30Perfectly good medication thrown away? It's crazy.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33So when you told us you left the clinic at 9.30?

0:35:33 > 0:35:35I stop off at the pharmacy.

0:35:35 > 0:35:38I just take a few things each time.

0:35:38 > 0:35:43That way, no-one notices. When I have enough, I advertise a clinic.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46It's mostly women, children, mothers.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50People who need help but can't afford the doctor's bills.

0:35:50 > 0:35:55So you've been running an unlicensed clinic with stolen medication?

0:35:57 > 0:35:58Why run then?

0:35:58 > 0:36:00You assaulted a police officer.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03I thought Dr Jones had sent you.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06I guess I just reacted.

0:36:06 > 0:36:07I'm sorry about your nose.

0:36:07 > 0:36:10I'd be happy to take a look at it?

0:36:10 > 0:36:13What's your relationship with Valerie Dupree?

0:36:13 > 0:36:17I was her nurse. When Mrs Dupree arrived, she was heartbroken.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20She just wanted to talk.

0:36:20 > 0:36:21Her husband had had an affair.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25A younger woman.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27She panicked, ran out and arranged to have surgery.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30But now she was here, nothing had changed.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36She was scared and lonely.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39I listened to her. That's all.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41You say Valerie was scared.

0:36:41 > 0:36:45That sounds like an unusual emotion.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48Her world had just caved in around her.

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Her husband doesn't love her.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52No children, friends taking sides

0:36:52 > 0:36:54and now a face she don't even recognise.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Wouldn't you be afraid to face the world again?

0:36:57 > 0:37:00You think she was unhappy with her surgery?

0:37:00 > 0:37:03I know she was. She had already contacted her lawyer.

0:37:05 > 0:37:10Listen, that night, when I was with her,

0:37:10 > 0:37:13I knew she wanted to talk,

0:37:13 > 0:37:15wanted someone to listen.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17But I was tired.

0:37:17 > 0:37:18It'd been a long day.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21So I walked away.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25I could have helped her

0:37:25 > 0:37:27and I just walked away.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31And that's something I have got to live with for the rest of my life.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35Thank you. You've been most helpful.

0:37:37 > 0:37:39I think we have all we need here.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41So am I free to go?

0:37:41 > 0:37:44Unless Officer Best wishes to make a complaint?

0:37:46 > 0:37:48I guess we both made a mistake.

0:37:49 > 0:37:50Thank you.

0:37:53 > 0:37:57Dwayne, see that nurse Reynolds gets his property back.

0:38:03 > 0:38:04Sir.

0:38:06 > 0:38:07The phone company.

0:38:07 > 0:38:10Yes. Valerie Dupree made three phone calls on the day she died.

0:38:10 > 0:38:12All to the same number in Paris.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14I just checked it out. It was a French lawyer.

0:38:14 > 0:38:17She was going to make a complaint about the clinic.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20I think we may have found our motive.

0:38:23 > 0:38:25Sorry, sorry. I was held up in surgery.

0:38:25 > 0:38:28Well, I assume your presence here means we're making progress?

0:38:28 > 0:38:30Possibly.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32Did you know that Valerie Dupree made three calls to

0:38:32 > 0:38:36a firm of personal injury lawyers the same day she died?

0:38:36 > 0:38:37Please.

0:38:42 > 0:38:43You're implying I murdered her

0:38:43 > 0:38:46because she threatened legal action against my clinic?

0:38:46 > 0:38:48People have been killed for less.

0:38:48 > 0:38:53Do you recognise the name of this lawyer?

0:38:53 > 0:38:55No, I've never heard of him.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58Good, because that's my shopping list -

0:38:58 > 0:39:00it says bananas and sun block.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Your eyesight's failing, isn't it, Mr Tipping?

0:39:02 > 0:39:05Why else would you keep complaining about the light in theatre?

0:39:05 > 0:39:06Yet if you were just short sighted,

0:39:06 > 0:39:09why not wear glasses or contact lenses?

0:39:09 > 0:39:13It all suggests to me this is more than a simple refractive problem.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18It started about a year ago.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21I thought it was just old age, that I needed glasses. But...

0:39:23 > 0:39:25..things got worse.

0:39:25 > 0:39:26In the end, I got on a plane

0:39:26 > 0:39:29and went to see an old colleague back at Moorfields.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31Turns out I'm a bit of a rarity.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34I have retinitis pigmentosa.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38The sight fades, day by day.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40I think the word he used was inexorable.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43There is no treatment.

0:39:43 > 0:39:44I'll end up blind.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47And yet you continue to operate?

0:39:47 > 0:39:49Well, what I do here isn't real surgery.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51Besides, most of the procedures

0:39:51 > 0:39:54I could do with my bloody eyes closed anyway.

0:39:54 > 0:39:55Look, Inspector...

0:39:57 > 0:39:59..I'm a surgeon, this...

0:40:01 > 0:40:03..is my life.

0:40:03 > 0:40:04I thought I could cope,

0:40:04 > 0:40:07that I had another maybe 12 months.

0:40:08 > 0:40:10But...

0:40:12 > 0:40:15..Valerie Dupree's face simply wasn't up to snuff.

0:40:15 > 0:40:19Her scars were going to be visible - she had every right to complain.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20But I never...

0:40:20 > 0:40:25I never imagined that it would make her take her own life.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27You still believe she committed suicide?

0:40:27 > 0:40:30Yes, I do. I'm not proud of what happened, Inspector.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32I'm prepared to take my share of the blame.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34I shouldn't have operated on her.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36But that doesn't make me a murderer.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45I just can't see a way through.

0:40:45 > 0:40:49I mean, Tipping had a motive but I don't believe he's a killer.

0:40:49 > 0:40:51Carlton was the only one who had the opportunity,

0:40:51 > 0:40:53but would he really kill to cover up his theft?

0:40:53 > 0:40:57Paul Vincent? Though he swears there was no relationship.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00Quite. And this looks nothing like a crime of passion.

0:41:00 > 0:41:04Dr Jones is also missing means, motive and opportunity.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08Maybe this will be the one that gets away. Hmm?

0:41:08 > 0:41:10We still have a bit of time left.

0:41:10 > 0:41:11Not enough.

0:41:11 > 0:41:15Once we give them their passports back, they'll all be gone.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17No. Something new will turn up tomorrow.

0:41:20 > 0:41:24So, any plans for tonight?

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Oh, yeah, I thought I'd wait till it gets dark

0:41:29 > 0:41:31then spend a couple of hours with Lucy.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33Excuse me?

0:41:34 > 0:41:37I've had her since I was fourteen.

0:41:37 > 0:41:38Christmas 1984.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42You gave your telescope a name?

0:41:42 > 0:41:44Long John Silver has a telescope.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Lucy is a precision optical instrument.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51I realised that there's one good thing about living in a shack

0:41:51 > 0:41:53on a beach on an island in the middle of nowhere -

0:41:53 > 0:41:54zero light pollution.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57And you?

0:41:58 > 0:42:02Oh, just taking it easy.

0:42:02 > 0:42:03Nothing really.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Liming? Is that liming?

0:42:06 > 0:42:07No, not exactly.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12You see, I hear people say that, that they're doing nothing,

0:42:12 > 0:42:16but what does it exactly consist of?

0:42:16 > 0:42:20What are its constituent parts? Define nothing.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22I'm not sure I understand the question.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Yeah, that's just it, isn't it?

0:42:24 > 0:42:27You don't understand the question and, no matter how hard I try,

0:42:27 > 0:42:30I can't seem to understand the answer.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Maybe some things are supposed to remain a puzzle.

0:42:33 > 0:42:36Like the mysterious death of Valerie Dupree.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Yeah, let's see what tomorrow brings.

0:42:44 > 0:42:45Good night.

0:42:47 > 0:42:48Good night, Lucy.

0:42:50 > 0:42:52Good night, Camille.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06Morning, Chief.

0:43:21 > 0:43:22Anything?

0:43:29 > 0:43:31PHONE RINGS

0:43:31 > 0:43:33Honore police station.

0:43:33 > 0:43:35Ah, yes, hold on one moment, please.

0:43:35 > 0:43:37Sir, it's the Commissioner.

0:43:40 > 0:43:41He says your 24 hours are up,

0:43:41 > 0:43:45we need to return the passports to the clinic guests.

0:43:55 > 0:43:56So that's it, I can go?

0:43:56 > 0:43:59That's it. You can get back to running your floral empire.

0:43:59 > 0:44:04- Yes, I can.- You never mentioned you were born on Saint Marie.

0:44:04 > 0:44:07I read your paper, it says you were born here in Honore.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10Sure. My parents moved off the island when I was ten.

0:44:10 > 0:44:15So, when I saw the clinic was here, I had to give them a call.

0:44:15 > 0:44:16You can't fight fate.

0:44:18 > 0:44:19I got to go.

0:44:35 > 0:44:37I just thought it was strange, that's all.

0:44:37 > 0:44:40When I was at the clinic earlier, I spoke to him in French.

0:44:40 > 0:44:43At the time, I thought he just hadn't heard me, but how is it that someone

0:44:43 > 0:44:46who'd have gone to school here doesn't know a word of French?

0:44:46 > 0:44:49Well, I know plenty of people who went to school in England

0:44:49 > 0:44:50who can't speak English.

0:44:50 > 0:44:55Maman, do you remember a boy called Paul Vincent?

0:44:56 > 0:44:59Late 1970s, local family.

0:44:59 > 0:45:03No. I knew the Vincent family, but they had two girls.

0:45:03 > 0:45:06No, wait, they had a son who died very young.

0:45:06 > 0:45:08It was so sad.

0:45:08 > 0:45:10I think his name was Paul.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12But maybe I'm wrong.

0:45:13 > 0:45:15Ms Smythe looks happy.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19How do you know? She can't smile.

0:45:19 > 0:45:21In fact, she's had so much work done,

0:45:21 > 0:45:22I'm surprised she can move a muscle.

0:45:29 > 0:45:32She didn't drink it because she couldn't drink it.

0:45:32 > 0:45:34The answer's been staring me in the face. Quite literally.

0:45:34 > 0:45:37'Our clientele are rich, important people.'

0:45:37 > 0:45:38Yes?

0:45:38 > 0:45:41'They insist on total discretion.'

0:45:41 > 0:45:44'This is a business first and a hospital second.'

0:45:48 > 0:45:51- I need a list of all the clients in the clinic.- You've had it, sir.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54Not the ones there now, well, those too, but going back, say, two years.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56And crosscheck with the immigration records -

0:45:56 > 0:45:58when they arrived in Saint Marie and when they left.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01Dwayne, get everyone together, Commissioner too.

0:46:01 > 0:46:03I'll be at the clinic in an hour.

0:46:03 > 0:46:05- Camille, with me.- Where to?

0:46:05 > 0:46:08The public records office and then the graveyard, obviously.

0:46:10 > 0:46:11Bye.

0:46:21 > 0:46:23HORN BEEPS

0:46:28 > 0:46:29Chief!

0:46:29 > 0:46:31Paul Vincent has left the clinic.

0:46:31 > 0:46:35Cab driver said he's gone down to the marina. Come!

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Toss a coin?

0:46:37 > 0:46:39No way, it plays havoc with my hair.

0:46:51 > 0:46:52Whoa!

0:46:58 > 0:46:59That way!

0:47:16 > 0:47:18Dwayne! Dwayne!

0:47:42 > 0:47:44Not on my watch.

0:47:49 > 0:47:50Aargh!

0:47:58 > 0:48:00I honestly didn't expect that to work.

0:48:12 > 0:48:14This had better be good.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17No. It had better astound me.

0:48:24 > 0:48:28I've called you all here

0:48:28 > 0:48:31because Valerie Dupree

0:48:31 > 0:48:32did not commit suicide.

0:48:34 > 0:48:36Every murder investigation has to focus on three things -

0:48:36 > 0:48:40means, motive and opportunity.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42Usually those things all point towards one person.

0:48:42 > 0:48:46However, in this case, only nurse Carlton Reynolds, the last

0:48:46 > 0:48:50person to see the victim alive, seems to have the opportunity.

0:48:50 > 0:48:51On the night of the murder,

0:48:51 > 0:48:54you thought she wanted to tell you something.

0:48:54 > 0:48:57You said she seemed frightened, wanted to leave the clinic.

0:48:57 > 0:48:58Yes.

0:48:58 > 0:49:00You assumed it was fear of the future, however,

0:49:00 > 0:49:04I now believe she was afraid for her life.

0:49:05 > 0:49:10The Jacaranda Clinic prides itself on absolute discretion.

0:49:11 > 0:49:14Clients quietly come and go.

0:49:16 > 0:49:17As Sergeant Bordey said,

0:49:17 > 0:49:20it's like they've never actually been here at all.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25And that's the whole point, isn't it, Dr Jones?

0:49:28 > 0:49:30Please, can I have your phone?

0:49:35 > 0:49:37Thank you.

0:49:37 > 0:49:38And the other one?

0:49:48 > 0:49:51I thought having two phones was strange, but I dismissed it.

0:49:51 > 0:49:54That was a mistake.

0:49:54 > 0:49:55Because once I realised

0:49:55 > 0:49:58that the white one was for the legitimate clinic

0:49:58 > 0:50:00and the black one was for some kind of illegal operation...

0:50:00 > 0:50:02Yes.

0:50:02 > 0:50:04..everything started to fit together.

0:50:04 > 0:50:08White for good, black for bad.

0:50:08 > 0:50:13Your own private joke at everyone else's expense.

0:50:13 > 0:50:16Because it's essential you know exactly who's ringing you, isn't it?

0:50:19 > 0:50:23You told me that the clinic was losing money until Dr Jones arrived.

0:50:23 > 0:50:25You explained how she'd turned the place around

0:50:25 > 0:50:28with a new marketing strategy.

0:50:28 > 0:50:31You didn't restructure the existing business at all, did you?

0:50:31 > 0:50:34You simply used it as cover for another one.

0:50:34 > 0:50:36Helping criminals begin new lives.

0:50:36 > 0:50:38By finding someone of a similar age to them

0:50:38 > 0:50:41who died young and stealing their details.

0:50:41 > 0:50:45You provided new faces and new identities.

0:50:45 > 0:50:47St Marie is the perfect location.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49No electronic records means

0:50:49 > 0:50:53it's almost impossible for police and borders to crosscheck.

0:50:53 > 0:50:56You know, I have absolutely no idea who this gentleman is,

0:50:56 > 0:50:59but I do know he is not Paul Vincent.

0:50:59 > 0:51:03The real Paul Vincent died over 35 years ago as a small child.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Absolute rot! Selwyn?

0:51:07 > 0:51:08Carry on, Inspector.

0:51:08 > 0:51:12You can't make these allegations without proof!

0:51:12 > 0:51:13Records.

0:51:13 > 0:51:16Of clients who have stayed at the clinic over the past two years.

0:51:16 > 0:51:20Among them, you'll find 18 people also recorded as deceased.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25I understand your medical prowess may be on the wane,

0:51:25 > 0:51:29but even in your heyday, I doubt you could resurrect the dead.

0:51:29 > 0:51:35No, the clinic was being used as a one-stop shop for identity theft

0:51:35 > 0:51:39with the occasional spot of cosmetic surgery when needed -

0:51:39 > 0:51:42as in Mr Vincent's case - to finish the job.

0:51:42 > 0:51:46All run by Dr Jones, under everyone's nose.

0:51:46 > 0:51:49We've already established Valerie Dupree was frightened

0:51:49 > 0:51:51the night that she died.

0:51:51 > 0:51:53We also have a witness who saw her clearly uncomfortable

0:51:53 > 0:51:56in the presence of the man we know as Paul Vincent.

0:51:56 > 0:52:00'I think they were having some kind of lover's tiff.'

0:52:00 > 0:52:02Things weren't quite as they seemed.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05I now believe that Valerie Dupree had somehow discovered

0:52:05 > 0:52:11the truth behind what Dr Jones and her special clients were up to.

0:52:11 > 0:52:13She was, in fact, petrified of Mr Vincent.

0:52:15 > 0:52:19So he's the murderer? Is that what you're saying?

0:52:19 > 0:52:21This man is undoubtedly a criminal,

0:52:21 > 0:52:24but he is not, as far as I'm aware, a murderer.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26Then who is?

0:52:26 > 0:52:27Valerie Dupree's life was taken

0:52:27 > 0:52:30by the only person who had the opportunity.

0:52:30 > 0:52:31Carlton Reynolds.

0:52:31 > 0:52:33No! I swear!

0:52:33 > 0:52:34I didn't do it!

0:52:37 > 0:52:39The first thing that bothered me about this case

0:52:39 > 0:52:41was a simple cup of tea.

0:52:41 > 0:52:44Why go to the trouble of making an expensive pot of tea

0:52:44 > 0:52:46yet fail to drink it?

0:52:46 > 0:52:48Unless you were disturbed.

0:52:49 > 0:52:52In this case, by their killer.

0:52:52 > 0:52:56Valerie Dupree was killed by the most powerful toxin known to man -

0:52:56 > 0:52:58a substance this clinic uses every day

0:52:58 > 0:53:01yet which no lab would ever find unless they were looking for it -

0:53:01 > 0:53:04botulinum toxin.

0:53:04 > 0:53:06Harmless enough when used to remove wrinkles

0:53:06 > 0:53:08yet fatal in the hands of a killer.

0:53:10 > 0:53:13Administered unwittingly by Carlton Reynolds...

0:53:17 > 0:53:21..but prepared very deliberately by Dr Anna Jones.

0:53:26 > 0:53:29You waited for the moment that Valerie's Heparin injection

0:53:29 > 0:53:31was ready to be administered

0:53:31 > 0:53:35and then you swapped it for a massive overdose of botulinum toxin.

0:53:36 > 0:53:39Carlton continued his rounds,

0:53:39 > 0:53:42not knowing he was now carrying a lethal syringe.

0:53:42 > 0:53:45What happened? Did she come to see you?

0:53:45 > 0:53:47Perhaps to tell you she had called her lawyer

0:53:47 > 0:53:49and was going to complain?

0:53:49 > 0:53:51Whatever she was planning, she never got that far, did she?

0:53:51 > 0:53:53Instead, I think she overheard

0:53:53 > 0:53:56exactly what was going on at the Jacaranda.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59An illegal identity fraud racket

0:53:59 > 0:54:01involving some very unpleasant people.

0:54:04 > 0:54:05You knew you had to silence her.

0:54:05 > 0:54:08And that what you'd added to her medication would paralyse

0:54:08 > 0:54:12every muscle in Valerie Dupree's body within minutes.

0:54:12 > 0:54:15With her lungs paralysed and unable to breathe,

0:54:15 > 0:54:16Valerie died in her own bed.

0:54:17 > 0:54:19You then simply moved her,

0:54:19 > 0:54:23silent and unseen, on a trolley like any other patient.

0:54:23 > 0:54:27Yet the trolley had a bent wheel, making it difficult to manoeuvre.

0:54:27 > 0:54:32Which was why you knocked into a terracotta plant pot by the pool.

0:54:34 > 0:54:38Then you slid the body of Valerie Dupree into the pool

0:54:38 > 0:54:40to make it look like she'd drowned herself.

0:54:46 > 0:54:50All so that your criminal endeavours weren't exposed.

0:54:50 > 0:54:52Valerie felt she'd lost her beauty as well as her husband,

0:54:52 > 0:54:55but you took away the most precious thing of all -

0:54:55 > 0:54:56her life.

0:54:58 > 0:54:59Lock her up.

0:55:12 > 0:55:13My dear fellow,

0:55:13 > 0:55:16it seems I may have been a little harsh on the phone the other day.

0:55:16 > 0:55:19What can I do to make it up to you?

0:55:27 > 0:55:28Ohhh.

0:55:36 > 0:55:41It seems our mysterious Mr Vincent's real name is Emilio Suarez.

0:55:41 > 0:55:46Big time drug runner. Wanted in Florida and five other states.

0:55:46 > 0:55:48With a bit of luck, they'll throw away the key.

0:55:48 > 0:55:50I couldn't agree more. Anything else come in?

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Nothing. It's still quiet.

0:55:53 > 0:55:57Right, well, in that case, I suppose we should just, you know, lime?

0:55:59 > 0:56:03I've actually drawn up a schedule for the rest of the week.

0:56:03 > 0:56:05Here.

0:56:05 > 0:56:07It's pretty self explanatory.

0:56:07 > 0:56:12Nothing too taxing but then I suppose that's the point.

0:56:12 > 0:56:14OK. So, it's Friday,

0:56:14 > 0:56:17it's 12.02 and we are playing...

0:56:17 > 0:56:19My favourite board game.

0:56:19 > 0:56:21- Unless anyone has any objections? - Well, I...

0:56:21 > 0:56:23OK, Fidel. You're in the hot seat.

0:56:24 > 0:56:29Professor Plum, in the dining room, with the lead piping?

0:56:29 > 0:56:30Is that wrong?

0:56:30 > 0:56:32I think we've established Professor Plum was

0:56:32 > 0:56:35nowhere near the piping, lead or otherwise.

0:56:35 > 0:56:36OK. Dwayne?

0:56:36 > 0:56:39This is it? This is the game?

0:56:39 > 0:56:41OK, another pass. Camille?

0:56:41 > 0:56:43Can we, please, play something else?

0:56:43 > 0:56:45Like what?

0:56:45 > 0:56:48I don't know. Twister?

0:56:48 > 0:56:49Hide and seek?

0:56:49 > 0:56:52Don't be so childish. Come on.

0:56:52 > 0:56:53Right.

0:56:53 > 0:56:55- Colonel Mustard?- No.

0:56:55 > 0:56:58- Miss Scarlet.- I told you, you can't keep shouting out names,

0:56:58 > 0:57:00it doesn't work like that.

0:57:00 > 0:57:01- (Reverend Green).- No!

0:57:01 > 0:57:03Well, one of them must be right!

0:57:03 > 0:57:05Yes, but that's hardly the point, is it?

0:57:05 > 0:57:08- Look, can we please just play the game properly?- No.

0:57:14 > 0:57:18Ah. Jayne Smythe looks ten years younger.

0:57:18 > 0:57:20Amazing what love can do.

0:57:20 > 0:57:22This is it?

0:57:22 > 0:57:24Sergeant Bordey, I'm going to count down from five

0:57:24 > 0:57:27and then, by the officially ratified Poole family rules of Cluedo,

0:57:27 > 0:57:29you miss your turn.

0:57:29 > 0:57:30Five, four...

0:57:30 > 0:57:34You should try it you know - love.

0:57:34 > 0:57:37- Look, are we playing this game or not?- All I'm saying is...

0:57:37 > 0:57:38Right. Fine, you win. Game over.

0:57:41 > 0:57:44One caught in an explosion, the other one shot dead.

0:57:44 > 0:57:47I hope they haven't wasted any money on the lottery.

0:57:47 > 0:57:49These are actual treasure hunters, is that right?

0:57:49 > 0:57:51I'm afraid they are.

0:57:51 > 0:57:52Maybe you found something.

0:57:52 > 0:57:54- Like what?- You tell us.

0:57:54 > 0:57:56I get half. That was the deal.

0:57:59 > 0:58:02- I was just wondering about... - If there was any word from London?

0:58:02 > 0:58:04- Yes.- No.

0:58:04 > 0:58:06- Have you got a problem with me?- Yes.

0:58:06 > 0:58:07Someone clearly wants us to believe

0:58:07 > 0:58:11these are deaths brought about by a dead pirate's curse.

0:58:12 > 0:58:15Whoever it is, they're after me, aren't they?
