0:00:42 > 0:00:43Well, this is fun!

0:00:48 > 0:00:49But it's possible?

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Right?

0:00:53 > 0:00:59He could be having a...you know, a good time.

0:00:59 > 0:01:00At a party?

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Mm! Ah! Right then, Rich. What are you drinking?

0:01:07 > 0:01:09Any chance of a cup of tea or...?

0:01:10 > 0:01:11I'll get you one.

0:01:11 > 0:01:12Thank you.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Put a sparkler in it, Sasha.

0:01:15 > 0:01:17'But it's a reunion!'

0:01:17 > 0:01:18So?

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- So it's his old college friends.- And?

0:01:20 > 0:01:23And they'll be talking about the good old days, you know?

0:01:23 > 0:01:26When they were young and crazy and... And... And...

0:01:26 > 0:01:30- 'And what?'- 'And the stuff they did and the fun they had.'

0:01:30 > 0:01:38REGGAE MUSIC

0:01:39 > 0:01:41I really can't believe you're here.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Sorry, could you excuse me, just for a moment?

0:01:52 > 0:01:55- 'We could go up there and rescue him.'- 'How?'

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Drive up there and say there's an emergency.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Tell him that we found his sense of humour!

0:02:05 > 0:02:07'I know, everyone!'

0:02:07 > 0:02:11- Roger?- Yup?- Richard? Let's all play charades!

0:02:11 > 0:02:13- Yeah!- I'll get a paper and pen.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Actually, I've, um... I've got a bit of a headache coming on.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18I think I'm going to just stop out here.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Oh, come on, RP! Don't be such a bore!

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Come on, man! You can't sit outside all day!

0:02:23 > 0:02:30LAUGHTER AND CHATTER FROM HOUSE

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Dinner? Er...eat?

0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Um, consume?- Mud?

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Some brown...- Mound?- Chow? Scoff? - Hill? Hill?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Look, you're never going to get it.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45Angie's brain isn't wired the same as ours, is it, me old duck?

0:02:45 > 0:02:47- Er, pancake?- Look!

0:02:47 > 0:02:48Cutting...

0:02:48 > 0:02:49Er...er... Mound? Wiping it?

0:02:49 > 0:02:51Jamie's right. Ange, Ange, what is it?

0:02:51 > 0:02:53It's a pie!

0:02:53 > 0:02:55- A pie?- What was that bit?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57That bit was the lid of the pie, the pie lid, the pastry pie lid!

0:02:57 > 0:02:58Which film is pie?

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Life Of Pi! I got it ten minutes ago!

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Then why didn't you say something?

0:03:03 > 0:03:06And miss you swinging your arms around like a demented windmill?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08That was far more amusing.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Thank you, Ange, but that is quite enough charades for me!

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Got a good mind to join old misery guts on the veranda there.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16He's been out there for an hour.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18He never liked party games.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20But still, it's not much of a reunion, is it?

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Even for RP, sitting on your own, reading a damn book!

0:03:23 > 0:03:26Come on! Who wants a cocktail?

0:03:26 > 0:03:28Ooh, I don't think I should. They're so strong.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30For Christ's sake, Ange! Lighten up!

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Come on, Ange! We owe it to our younger selves

0:03:32 > 0:03:33to get totally wrecked!

0:03:33 > 0:03:35What about Richard? He's missing all the fun.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37Nothing new there, then!

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Look, we've... We've taken him out some food and some drink.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42He'll be fine.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Do your worst, barman! - Certainly shall.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Roger's making more cocktails. Would you like one?

0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Mm!- Where's the ice pick? It was here a second ago.

0:03:49 > 0:03:50Richard?

0:03:52 > 0:03:57SHE SCREAMS

0:04:55 > 0:04:58No, we still don't know when the body will be released.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02No, no, no, no. Of course not. And we will.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03I promise.

0:05:05 > 0:05:06OK, bye.

0:05:10 > 0:05:11His parents?

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Do we have anything new?

0:05:16 > 0:05:17Nothing from the door to door.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20And no-one could have approached by car because I checked the traffic

0:05:20 > 0:05:23CCTV camera at the bottom of the hill, which leads up to the house.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26We've got the chief's cab going up there at 4.50pm

0:05:26 > 0:05:28and then coming back down empty ten minutes later.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30The next car to go up there was ours.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32What about you guys?

0:05:32 > 0:05:34I'm going through the chief's current caseload. Nothing so far.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37And I'm still trying to see who's just been released from prison.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Prison? Caseloads? We're wasting our time!

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Excuse me?- I'm telling you.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45There's no way the killer was an intruder from outside.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47Come on! We've all seen that villa.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49The whole place is perched on the edge of a cliff.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53The only way out onto that veranda is from inside the house.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55OK! So we're back where we started again.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Yes!- The four people already at the house.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01University friends he hadn't seen in 25 years.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02Makes no sense.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Good morning, team.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Sir.- Sir?

0:06:09 > 0:06:15So... I imagine it's difficult to think straight in the circumstances.

0:06:15 > 0:06:16A little, Sir. Yes.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22It, um... It occurred to me that you may need a little help.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Any extra officers you can get over here...

0:06:26 > 0:06:27CAR HORN BEEPS

0:06:29 > 0:06:30How about just one to begin with?

0:06:40 > 0:06:41Your new inspector.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02London speaks very highly of him.

0:07:02 > 0:07:03- Hello!- Hello!

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Morning. Commissioner.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Morning.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Well, at least I think it's morning. Are we in front or behind here?

0:07:18 > 0:07:23Er... Anyway, sorry if I'm late. Or... Or... Or early.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Thank you.- Team, may I introduce

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Detective Inspector Humphrey Goodman?

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Dwayne, Fidel. Help the inspector in with his luggage.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Yes, Sir.- Thank you.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46This is Detective Sergeant Camille Bordey.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50It's a real pleasure to meet you,

0:07:50 > 0:07:53although I'm sorry it's not in better circumstances.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55This must be a terrible time for you all.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Yes, it is.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Sergeant Fidel Best and Officer Dwayne Myers.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05Sergeant Bordey, perhaps you will bring the inspector up to speed?

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Sir, it...

0:08:09 > 0:08:10Yes, sir.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15Inspector, if there's anything you need....

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Thank you, Sir.

0:08:18 > 0:08:19Sir.

0:08:19 > 0:08:20Commissioner.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Right. Er... This is me, is it?

0:08:33 > 0:08:34Um...

0:08:35 > 0:08:36Ah.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Um, actually...

0:08:45 > 0:08:47This'll be great.

0:08:52 > 0:08:53Yes. Lovely.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05# Ska, ska, ska

0:09:07 > 0:09:08# Ska, ska, ska... #

0:09:11 > 0:09:13So where are these friends now?

0:09:13 > 0:09:16We moved them to a local hotel so we could preserve the crime scene.

0:09:16 > 0:09:17Excellent.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19OK. So we have Angela Birkett.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22She's a lawyer currently living in Bristol. Unmarried.

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Then we have husband and wife James and Sasha Moore.

0:09:24 > 0:09:25He's a financial advisor...

0:09:26 > 0:09:29- ..and she ran her own computer software company.- Ran, past tense?

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Yes. She sold the company seven years ago for a small fortune.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34And finally, we have Roger Sadler.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Here alone, but married with three children. He's an estate agent.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40They all arrived on the island five days ago.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- And all of them went to university with the inspector?- Yes, Sir.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45And you found the body where?

0:09:53 > 0:09:54Hot, isn't it?

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Could you bear to talk me through it?

0:10:00 > 0:10:01Um...

0:10:01 > 0:10:03The other guests were inside that room, playing games,

0:10:03 > 0:10:04according to their statements.

0:10:04 > 0:10:09Inspector Poole come out at 5.20pm with a book. He sat here.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- With his back to the house?- Yes, Sir.

0:10:13 > 0:10:14Right.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19About an hour later, Angela Birkett came outside to ask

0:10:19 > 0:10:20if he wanted a cocktail.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23It was then that she found him, with an ice pick in his chest.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26OK. Forensics?

0:10:26 > 0:10:29The only prints we've managed to lift from the murder weapon all belong to the witnesses.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31- All four of them?- Yes, Sir.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33They all used the ice pick at one time or another.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Anything else?

0:10:35 > 0:10:36Yes, Sir.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38We have an empty tea cup

0:10:38 > 0:10:40and an empty bowl with remnants of potato chips

0:10:40 > 0:10:42he was eating on the table.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45And the book was on the floor, which is a bit of a puzzle.

0:10:45 > 0:10:46How so?

0:10:46 > 0:10:48It was in French.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50- The inspector didn't speak French? - No.

0:10:52 > 0:10:53Mm.

0:11:08 > 0:11:09Right.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16You said they were playing games?

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Um, yes. Charades.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Cocktails there.

0:11:21 > 0:11:22Cocktails.

0:11:22 > 0:11:26So Inspector Poole was pretty much in full view the whole time

0:11:26 > 0:11:27he was out there.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32And we're sure there's no other way out onto the veranda?

0:11:32 > 0:11:34Nope. You've got to come through the house.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38Ah. So in effect, any intruder would have had to pass the other

0:11:38 > 0:11:40guests as they played charades.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51- And who took the statements?- I did.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Firstly to Sasha Moore, the lady in the blue...

0:11:55 > 0:11:56HE SHOUTS

0:11:59 > 0:12:00Where him gone?

0:12:09 > 0:12:10Right?

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Yeah, I was just...

0:12:14 > 0:12:15Carry on.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19OK, right. Um...

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I, er...

0:12:21 > 0:12:24I'd like background checks on those, er, old friends.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28- Yes, we've done that.- Police records, financial checks?- Yes.

0:12:28 > 0:12:31Good, excellent. Er, you can fill me in later.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Right. I think it's time we spoke to Richard's old chums, don't you?

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Thank you.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05Am I seeing things or did he fall out of the window?

0:13:05 > 0:13:06Um...yes.

0:13:07 > 0:13:08Yes, he did.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20The hotel is just around the headland.

0:13:20 > 0:13:21Right.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27Gosh, that takes some beating!

0:13:27 > 0:13:29What does?

0:13:29 > 0:13:30You're so beautiful.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34Sorry, IT is so beautiful! Not you, you're not. God, no! IT is.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38Beautiful. The sea and everything, palm trees,

0:13:38 > 0:13:42sand, the whole Caribbean vibe. Am I talking too much?

0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Yes.- Sorry. I do that a lot.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50It's the silence, you see. I always think it's my fault.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Sally, my wife, says I have a pathological need to fill it.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55She's right, of course. She always is.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58She generally just puts a finger to my lips or says "Shut up",

0:13:58 > 0:14:00you know, so feel free to...either.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- You really don't want me here, do you?- No.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12I'm not here to take his place, you know, Camille.

0:14:15 > 0:14:16I'm not here to be him.

0:14:17 > 0:14:21I don't expect anything, any consideration. I'm just here.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26And while I'm here, I promise I will do everything I can to find

0:14:26 > 0:14:27out what happened to your friend.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30Because that's what he was, not just your colleague.

0:14:30 > 0:14:31I'm sorry for your loss. I truly am.

0:14:34 > 0:14:38But the thing is, I have a feeling I may need some help,

0:14:38 > 0:14:40and a great deal of it.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44You can decide if you like me afterwards.

0:14:44 > 0:14:45And if I don't?

0:14:45 > 0:14:48Ah. Good point. Don't really have an answer for that.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59There's a whole list of things I'm not very good at.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02But I am a good detective.

0:15:03 > 0:15:04And right now,

0:15:04 > 0:15:08more than anything, I want to catch the person who murdered your friend.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10So maybe, just for now,

0:15:10 > 0:15:12it's enough that we both want the same thing.

0:15:16 > 0:15:17You're wet.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Yes, I am.

0:15:19 > 0:15:20It will dry as we walk.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35Hello. Good morning.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38I'm sorry to put you through this again,

0:15:38 > 0:15:41but I'm DI Goodman. DS Bordey you already know.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43We just want to ask you a few more questions.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45Um, when can we all go back to the villa?

0:15:45 > 0:15:46And you are?

0:15:46 > 0:15:48I'm James Moore. And this is my wife, Sasha.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Er, the villa is, er, still a crime scene, I'm afraid.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53We're moving as quickly as we can.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55I don't want to go back there.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Angela?

0:15:57 > 0:15:58Roger Sadler.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Look, um, we've given our statements.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03I'm not sure what else we can tell you.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06I take it you're not suggesting we're involved in any way?

0:16:06 > 0:16:08We haven't ruled out anything yet.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Come on! We haven't seen the man for 25 years!

0:16:11 > 0:16:13I mean, I know he wasn't everyone's cup of tea,

0:16:13 > 0:16:15but why would any of us want him dead?

0:16:15 > 0:16:17We didn't even know he was on the island.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18But I thought this was a reunion.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Yes, it is. Um, well, we always said we'd do a little

0:16:21 > 0:16:23something for our 25th anniversary.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26So why wasn't DI Poole invited?

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Well, none of us have really kept in contact with Richard

0:16:29 > 0:16:31since university.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34'Until, that is, we were in your local market the other day,

0:16:34 > 0:16:37'and there he was. Richard bloody Poole! I mean...'

0:16:42 > 0:16:44What are you all doing here?

0:16:44 > 0:16:46What an amazing coincidence.

0:16:46 > 0:16:47Yes! Wasn't it?

0:16:47 > 0:16:50Um... Then could I ask, er...

0:16:53 > 0:16:56- Who organised the holiday?- I did.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01And, um, out of all the possible holiday

0:17:01 > 0:17:05destinations in the world, why on earth did you choose Saint-Marie?

0:17:05 > 0:17:09Someone mentioned it to me when I was trying to set up the reunion.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Was it you, James? You'd been here on a golf trip?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Me? No. God, no. No, I'd... I'd never heard of this place.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17Oh, it must have been you, then, Sasha.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21Didn't you say you had your cosmetic surgery here?

0:17:21 > 0:17:23No, that was St Lucia, darling.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25And please don't give up a girl's secrets!

0:17:25 > 0:17:28Do you know what? I must've read about it, then, in a holiday supplement or something.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Anyway, it stuck in my mind for some reason. So...

0:17:33 > 0:17:37So you bumped into Richard, invited him to your villa?

0:17:37 > 0:17:39I mean, it was a reunion we were having and, well, we didn't know

0:17:39 > 0:17:42he was here, but once we did, well... Well, how could we not?

0:17:42 > 0:17:48Indeed. So how come he ended up sitting alone on the veranda?

0:17:48 > 0:17:53It's no mystery. We wanted to play charades and he didn't.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56- Got a bit of a headache.- Oh, come on, RP! Don't be such a bore!

0:17:56 > 0:17:59'And then over the next hour, I understand that, um,

0:17:59 > 0:18:02'some of you went out to the veranda to see him.'

0:18:02 > 0:18:04'I went to check that he was all right.'

0:18:08 > 0:18:12'And he asked me for another cup of tea.'

0:18:12 > 0:18:14'And then I think I took him out a bowl of crisps.'

0:18:14 > 0:18:15'Then I took the tea out.'

0:18:15 > 0:18:18I'll just take the old boy this.

0:18:18 > 0:18:19'How long were you outside for?'

0:18:19 > 0:18:21Half a minute. Just delivered the tea, really.

0:18:21 > 0:18:22Speak to him at all?

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Er, yes. I asked if he wanted to come and join the game.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27He, er... He said he'd rather not and, um...

0:18:27 > 0:18:29and then I went back inside.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31I think I was probably the last one out there.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33'Yeah, I was doing the barbecue.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35'I went out a couple of times to see if the coals were hot.'

0:18:35 > 0:18:36'Did you talk to Richard?'

0:18:36 > 0:18:39'No, no, anywhere near him. I was by the barbecue

0:18:39 > 0:18:40'the whole, whole time.'

0:18:41 > 0:18:45You know, the truth is, the rest of us were always in that main room.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47There must have been an intruder.

0:18:48 > 0:18:53Someone must have got into that area unnoticed, somehow.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Despite the fact that you weren't expecting to meet him here,

0:19:01 > 0:19:05once you had, I take it you all got along OK?

0:19:05 > 0:19:06- Of course we did.- Yes, yes.

0:19:07 > 0:19:12OK. I think that's all for now. Thanks for your time.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Oh, just one more thing.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21That book he was reading, where did that come from?

0:19:21 > 0:19:24He brought that with him. He showed it to you, didn't he, Sasha?

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Yes, that's right. Ya. He, um...

0:19:27 > 0:19:31He said he picked it up from a book shop along the way.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34Strange thing to do, don't you think?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Bring a book to a party? - Well, not for Richard.

0:19:41 > 0:19:42Thank you.

0:19:51 > 0:19:52'So the question is,'

0:19:52 > 0:19:55what are the odds of booking a holiday 4,000 miles

0:19:55 > 0:19:58away, and a reunion, no less, then when you arrive,

0:19:58 > 0:20:01you discover someone you all happened to go to university with?

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Where are my notes?

0:20:03 > 0:20:04Ah! Thank you.

0:20:06 > 0:20:07So the point is...

0:20:09 > 0:20:10..if any one of them

0:20:10 > 0:20:14knew Richard was in Saint-Marie, then it suggests that his

0:20:14 > 0:20:15'murder was premeditated.'

0:20:21 > 0:20:23They wouldn't have sent him if he didn't know what he was doing.

0:20:23 > 0:20:27Fidel, we're talking about a man who fell out of a window!

0:20:27 > 0:20:28Yes, but...

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Yes, that is true. Well, look.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34You weren't too keen on Inspector Poole when he came out, either.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37We should just give him a chance. That's all I'm saying.

0:20:37 > 0:20:38Well, he's no chief, not in my book.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Dwayne, no-one is going to take the inspector's place.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Not for me. And if he was here, I know what he'd say.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Me too. "Turn up the air con!"

0:20:47 > 0:20:48No.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50He'd tell us to be as professional as we can

0:20:50 > 0:20:53and to help the new inspector because that's why we're here.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56- We're police officers.- Mm-hm.- We can grieve in our own time.- Mm-hm.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58And to turn the air con up.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01- You know what's really funny?- What? - And the new guy's just as...

0:21:01 > 0:21:04I think we have to rule out an intruder.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07If someone had managed to reach the villa unseen and they also

0:21:07 > 0:21:10somehow managed to commit murder in plain view of four witnesses

0:21:10 > 0:21:12and then escape, I don't believe it.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14Agreed.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16So we're left with four friends.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Then if you haven't set eyes on someone for 25 years,

0:21:19 > 0:21:21how could you ever have a motive to kill them?

0:21:21 > 0:21:23Maybe they was all in it together.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25Possibly.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28But then I find the notion of four old university friends

0:21:28 > 0:21:31conspiring to travel all this way to murder someone after all this

0:21:31 > 0:21:35time, is just as unlikely as our ghostly intruder.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Fox, goose and a bag of beans.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45- I beg your pardon?- The puzzle! Fox, goose and a bag of beans.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Once upon a time, a farmer went to a market and he bought a fox,

0:21:50 > 0:21:51a goose and a bag of beans.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54But to get them home, he had to cross a river by boat.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57But the boat was so small it would only carry him

0:21:57 > 0:21:59and one of the things he bought.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01If he took the beans, the fox would eat the goose.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03If he took the fox, the goose would eat the beans.

0:22:03 > 0:22:06So how did he get them all across the river?

0:22:08 > 0:22:09Yes. Now, in our version,

0:22:09 > 0:22:13Angela Birkett went out first to ask him if he needed anything.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15He asked for a cup of tea.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Then Sasha took him out a bowl of crisps.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20So assuming that Sasha would have noticed him being dead,

0:22:20 > 0:22:24we therefore have to accept that Angela didn't kill him.

0:22:24 > 0:22:25Then the crisp bowl being empty

0:22:25 > 0:22:30clearly suggests that he was alive to eat them after Sasha had left.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32So we must assume that she didn't kill him, either.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36Next out was her husband, James, who took him the cup of tea.

0:22:36 > 0:22:41Which was also drunk, so that means James didn't kill him, either.

0:22:41 > 0:22:44Unless Richard didn't drink the tea and the killer threw it away.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47No. Forensics showed traces of Richard's saliva in the cup.

0:22:47 > 0:22:51So he drank the tea after James left, leaving only

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Roger as a possible suspect.

0:22:53 > 0:22:55And yet, he's the only one of them

0:22:55 > 0:22:57who never went near Richard at any time.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- Or so he says.- True. And then there's the damn book.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Yes! Take the goose!

0:23:06 > 0:23:09- You take the goose because the fox won't eat the beans!- Yes.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12But then if he takes the fox out next, the goose will eat the beans.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13No, that's not right.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16If he takes the fox out next, it will eat the goose

0:23:16 > 0:23:19when he goes back for the beans. If he takes out the beans next,

0:23:19 > 0:23:22the goose will eat them when he goes back for the fox.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28The bottom line is none of them had a motive.

0:23:28 > 0:23:29It makes no sense.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Ah.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37Oh, um... It was a long flight.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39I could really use a change of clothes.

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Does anyone know where I'm staying?

0:23:55 > 0:23:57We treated it as a secondary crime scene,

0:23:57 > 0:24:00so everything of Richard has been taken away.

0:24:00 > 0:24:05You know, I really wouldn't mind booking into a B&B or something.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08It must be quite tough, having someone else stay here.

0:24:08 > 0:24:09A little, yes,

0:24:09 > 0:24:14- but if you stay on Saint-Marie, this will be your home, so...- Yes.

0:24:15 > 0:24:16Will your wife be coming?

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Sally?

0:24:18 > 0:24:22In a week or so, I think. Er, yes. She's had to hang on.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25We're renting out our house in the UK, so she's dealing with that.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Yes, a bit of a loss without her, really.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31You must be.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Er... There's an immersion heater for hot water.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37The switch is just beside it.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Anything else, just ask.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42Quick shower and a change. Half an hour?

0:24:42 > 0:24:43I'll be outside.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53# I've been wanting you

0:24:54 > 0:24:58# For so long, it's a shame

0:25:00 > 0:25:03# Oh, baby

0:25:03 > 0:25:08# Every time I hear your name... #

0:25:09 > 0:25:10HE COUGHS

0:25:13 > 0:25:15- Better?- Much better!

0:25:20 > 0:25:21There was a lizard in the bathroom.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Harry. He comes with the house.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Ah! Sitting tenant?

0:25:27 > 0:25:29He likes bugs smashed up with fruit.

0:25:29 > 0:25:30I'll do my best.

0:25:35 > 0:25:40This French novel Richard was supposedly reading, do you know it?

0:25:40 > 0:25:43Yes. Le Rouge Et Le Noir. We studied it at school.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Le Rouge Et Le Noir.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49It's the story of, um... of a carpenter's son, Julien Sorel.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52He rises up through French society in the 19th century.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54It's a satire.

0:25:54 > 0:25:57Can you think of any reason why that would be of interest to Richard?

0:25:57 > 0:25:58No.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00And even if it was, he couldn't read French,

0:26:00 > 0:26:03so the book would have been useless to him.

0:26:03 > 0:26:04Then why take it to a party?

0:26:04 > 0:26:06- Bonjour.- Oh, hello.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07La poste pour Monsieur Poole.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09No, don't worry. I'll... I'll take it.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11It doesn't say who it's from.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13It's from the UK.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Yeah. I wonder who sent it.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30Oh, Sir? I've had a preliminary report back from the pathologist.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33- Ah. Right.- Yes. It confirms what we already suspected.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37The ice pick entered the body through the third and fourth ribs.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40It punctured the right ventricle of the heart.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42Death would have been pretty instant.

0:26:47 > 0:26:50And the, er, background checks. You said you'd done them?

0:26:50 > 0:26:56That's right. We have. Now, Angela Birkett has her own law practice.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58She appears to be doing very well out of it.

0:26:58 > 0:27:01Roger Sadler is an estate agent based in Kent.

0:27:01 > 0:27:03He seems to be the least well-off.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Now, Mr and Mrs Moore are worth a bomb.

0:27:06 > 0:27:11She sold her software company business in 2007 for 18 million!

0:27:11 > 0:27:14The Moores moved to Spain seven years ago after Mrs Moore was

0:27:14 > 0:27:16involved in a road traffic accident.

0:27:16 > 0:27:17Really? A bad one?

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Sasha Moore was fine but her sister, Helen Reed,

0:27:19 > 0:27:21was driving and she was killed.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28This is interesting.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29What is?

0:27:30 > 0:27:32It looks like his university album.

0:27:34 > 0:27:35Look, there's Sasha.

0:27:38 > 0:27:39The gang.

0:27:39 > 0:27:40Richard and Sasha again.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45There's James.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48And there's Richard. Angela Birkett is behind him, look.

0:27:48 > 0:27:49Hm.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52It's... I can't see Roger Sadler.

0:27:52 > 0:27:55Yes, it's their graduation photo. But why is it all here?

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Maybe he wanted to show his friends.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58Who sent it?

0:27:58 > 0:27:59Um...his mother.

0:28:01 > 0:28:05"Dearest Richard, hope what you're looking for is here. Love, Mum."

0:28:05 > 0:28:09"Hope what you're looking for is here." What was he looking for?

0:28:09 > 0:28:10Looks like his diary.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13Ah, well, that could tell us something important.

0:28:13 > 0:28:14I should read it.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Sir, I've got something!

0:28:17 > 0:28:19There is a series of deleted e-mails to

0:28:19 > 0:28:22and from the UK from Angela Birkett.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24It looks like she's inviting him to their reunion, look.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26"Perhaps, if you don't want to come to the UK,

0:28:26 > 0:28:29"maybe I can persuade the others to come to Saint-Marie."

0:28:29 > 0:28:32So there was no coincidence. She knew he was here all along!

0:28:32 > 0:28:34She lied to us.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38Because I loved him.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41He was never interested in me,

0:28:41 > 0:28:44no matter how much of a fool I made of myself.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46With respect, doesn't explain why you lied to me.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50The others didn't know that Richard was here.

0:28:50 > 0:28:54It was bad enough at university. They were always teasing me,

0:28:54 > 0:28:59saying I was obsessed. They called me "Richard's little bunny boiler".

0:28:59 > 0:29:02If they knew I'd brought them all out here, just because...

0:29:04 > 0:29:08Well, it wouldn't have been a proper reunion, not without Richard!

0:29:08 > 0:29:10Um... Could you excuse me, just for a moment?

0:29:12 > 0:29:15'You're saying you were never in a relationship with him?'

0:29:15 > 0:29:17'He only ever had eyes for Sasha.'

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Sasha Moore?

0:29:19 > 0:29:21He helped her with her dissertation.

0:29:21 > 0:29:25You know, they were... They were rarely apart.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27Must have been quite some reunion when she saw him.

0:29:27 > 0:29:28Actually...

0:29:30 > 0:29:32'I thought she was rather cool with him.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36'I suppose it was probably for James's benefit.'

0:29:39 > 0:29:43James used to get a little bit jealous now and again but I think

0:29:43 > 0:29:46that's why he kept sniping at him. You know, he was arguing with him.

0:29:46 > 0:29:47Oh?

0:29:47 > 0:29:48The day we bumped into Richard, we...

0:29:48 > 0:29:50we all went to this place for lunch.

0:29:50 > 0:29:52'I couldn't hear what they were saying.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54'James said it was because Richard insisted on leaving

0:29:54 > 0:29:57'a tip, even though the service was rubbish.

0:29:57 > 0:30:02'But I... I just feel it was bound to be something about Sasha.'

0:30:09 > 0:30:12I'm sorry I lied. I didn't mean any harm.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18I really did love Richard.

0:30:19 > 0:30:24I couldn't have done anything to harm him. I really...

0:30:26 > 0:30:27I couldn't.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39# Take the ribbon from your hair

0:30:42 > 0:30:45# Shake it loose and let it fall... #

0:30:49 > 0:30:50You OK?

0:30:53 > 0:30:55It's so sad, you know,

0:30:55 > 0:31:00reading about someone's dreams, how they see their future,

0:31:00 > 0:31:02knowing that most of it will never happen.

0:31:07 > 0:31:08I miss him.

0:31:10 > 0:31:11I know.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Ah! Dwayne said I'd find you here.

0:31:19 > 0:31:25Yes. This is my mother, Catherine. Maman, this is our new inspector.

0:31:25 > 0:31:26Humphrey. Enchante.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28Welcome to Saint-Marie.

0:31:28 > 0:31:29Thank you.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31And this is my mother's bar.

0:31:31 > 0:31:32- Can I get you anything?- Oh!

0:31:34 > 0:31:35Tea?

0:31:35 > 0:31:38Tea? Heavens, no! It must be 100 degrees!

0:31:38 > 0:31:40Um, I would like, please... Surprise me.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47- May I?- Of course.- Thank you.

0:31:50 > 0:31:54Is there, er, anything in Richard's diary that might help us?

0:31:54 > 0:31:57Well, it seems that Richard was in love with Sasha Reed.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00They were just friends, right? That's what Angela Birkett said.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03Yes, they were. But it's clear Richard wanted more than that.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06And she also has a boyfriend.

0:32:06 > 0:32:07James Moore.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Who hates their friendship.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11But Sasha always sticks up for Richard.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13And makes James hate him even more, I'd imagine.

0:32:13 > 0:32:17Sasha's sister, Helen, was a year below them.

0:32:17 > 0:32:21When Richard left, she told him he wasn't being fair with Sasha.

0:32:21 > 0:32:24He realised it was true and he decided he'd never see her again.

0:32:24 > 0:32:28Ah, Catherine! Thank you. Er... What is it?

0:32:28 > 0:32:31A rum made on the island. The locals swear by it.

0:32:31 > 0:32:32Mm, excellent! Um...

0:32:32 > 0:32:35No, your first drink is on me. Enjoy.

0:32:35 > 0:32:36Thank you.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42Well, bottoms up!

0:32:42 > 0:32:44No, you should...

0:32:44 > 0:32:45Camille.

0:32:46 > 0:32:47Sir.

0:32:47 > 0:32:48Yes, Fidel?

0:32:50 > 0:32:54So I spoke to the staff at the Palm Court, and there was a waitress

0:32:54 > 0:32:56who said she saw the argument between James and Richard.

0:32:56 > 0:32:57HUMPHREY CLEARS THROAT

0:32:57 > 0:32:59- HOARSELY:- Go on.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02Well, the way waitress put it, um,

0:33:02 > 0:33:05James was being very aggressive and she heard the name Sasha.

0:33:07 > 0:33:08HE COUGHS

0:33:12 > 0:33:16I think we need to speak to James Moore again, don't you?

0:33:16 > 0:33:18People really drink that?

0:33:18 > 0:33:21- Well, I do.- Right.

0:33:37 > 0:33:38Hello.

0:33:38 > 0:33:42Oh, for heaven's sake! How many times do we have to do all this?

0:33:42 > 0:33:45Only as long as it takes for you to tell us the truth.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47We have a witness who overheard the argument you had with Richard

0:33:47 > 0:33:49at the lunch and it wasn't about the tip, was it?

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Yeah, and while you're thinking about that, you can

0:33:54 > 0:33:58tell us about the relationship you had with him at university.

0:33:58 > 0:33:59Look, what is all this, eh?

0:33:59 > 0:34:01You resented the time he spent with Sasha.

0:34:03 > 0:34:04How the hell do you know that?

0:34:04 > 0:34:06Are you saying it isn't true?

0:34:06 > 0:34:07You know, he was like a fly.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10He was always buzzing around her.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12She wasn't remotely interested in him, of course,

0:34:12 > 0:34:14but the damn fool was infatuated with her.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16And it never went any further?

0:34:16 > 0:34:19Like I said, she wasn't interested in him.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Then why, even after 20, 25 years,

0:34:21 > 0:34:24were you still jealous of him?

0:34:24 > 0:34:27That's what the argument was about, wasn't it? Sasha?

0:34:27 > 0:34:29I didn't take kindly to the way he was looking at my wife

0:34:29 > 0:34:31and I told him as much.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33- Is that what you wanted? - It's a start.

0:34:33 > 0:34:34All right. I admit it.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38I get twitchy when men look at Sasha. And when we all met up,

0:34:38 > 0:34:40I thought Richard was being over-familiar with her.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43It was like being back at university and I...

0:34:43 > 0:34:44I just snapped.

0:34:47 > 0:34:49You just leave Sasha alone!

0:34:52 > 0:34:54You seem to be an intelligent man, Inspector.

0:34:55 > 0:34:59Do you seriously believe that I would murder a policeman

0:34:59 > 0:35:01because of the way he was looking at my wife?

0:35:19 > 0:35:22- I don't trust him.- Nor do I. Doesn't mean he's our killer.

0:35:22 > 0:35:23Yes, then who is?

0:35:25 > 0:35:28- I saw you talking to James.- Yes.

0:35:29 > 0:35:30He's a good man.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35He just gets angry sometimes.

0:35:35 > 0:35:36And jealous?

0:35:38 > 0:35:39OK. Richard and I...

0:35:43 > 0:35:44Richard was...

0:35:46 > 0:35:49..funny. You know, eccentric.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51He was one of my best friends.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56But I never felt the way he did.

0:35:58 > 0:36:02You know, it's funny. It's only now that he's gone...

0:36:04 > 0:36:07..that I realise how much I've been missing him.

0:36:10 > 0:36:11Anyway...

0:36:14 > 0:36:16..I just wanted to tell you about James.

0:36:29 > 0:36:30Crisps.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33Cup of tea, cup of tea, tea.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47'Hi, you're through to Sally. I'm not here right now

0:36:47 > 0:36:49'but please leave a message and I'll get back to you.'

0:36:49 > 0:36:50BEEP

0:36:50 > 0:36:53Hello, my darling. Here safe.

0:36:53 > 0:36:54At least I've hit the ground running,

0:36:54 > 0:36:57so there's no time for jet lag yet.

0:36:57 > 0:37:03People are nice and, er, it is very beautiful. Love you.

0:37:03 > 0:37:04Bye-bye.

0:37:07 > 0:37:10OK, well, thank you very much for that.

0:37:10 > 0:37:14That was the dean's secretary at the university they all attended.

0:37:14 > 0:37:18It bugged me as to why Roger Sadler is not in the graduation

0:37:18 > 0:37:21- photograph, so she pulled his file for me.- And?

0:37:21 > 0:37:25Simple. He never graduated. Roger was thrown out of university.

0:37:25 > 0:37:26What for?

0:37:26 > 0:37:30Cheating in his exams. And it gets better.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33He was reported to the dean by Richard Poole.

0:37:51 > 0:37:53You looking for me?

0:37:54 > 0:37:55Yes, we are.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58We understand that you were thrown out of university for cheating

0:37:58 > 0:37:59on your exams.

0:38:02 > 0:38:05It's a matter of public record. Why bring it up now?

0:38:05 > 0:38:08You didn't think to tell us?

0:38:08 > 0:38:09I hardly see how it's relevant!

0:38:09 > 0:38:14It's relevant because it was Richard who reported you, wasn't it?

0:38:14 > 0:38:15Is that true?

0:38:15 > 0:38:17You really expect us to believe you didn't know?

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Well, I didn't. Well, it was...

0:38:20 > 0:38:2225 years ago. I honestly had no idea.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26Now, if you don't mind...

0:38:28 > 0:38:29You're lying!

0:38:31 > 0:38:33I beg your pardon?

0:38:33 > 0:38:35We've got Richard's diary.

0:38:35 > 0:38:39He's written about how you cheated, how he confronted you

0:38:39 > 0:38:41and you begged him not to tell, didn't you?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47I can arrest you and you can read it for yourself at the police

0:38:47 > 0:38:48station if you prefer.

0:38:50 > 0:38:55Yes, all right, all right! Richard wouldn't listen.

0:38:55 > 0:38:59I... I pleaded with him not to, but he went to the dean anyway.

0:38:59 > 0:39:02And in that very moment, my life was ruined.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05When I was booted out of Cambridge, I felt my life had come to

0:39:05 > 0:39:09an end and maybe I'd have happily killed him then.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11But that was a quarter of a century ago.

0:39:11 > 0:39:13I've moved on since then.

0:39:13 > 0:39:16Look, if you really think I'm the killer, then arrest me.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19But first you going to have to prove to me how I'm supposed to have done it.

0:39:19 > 0:39:22I've got three witnesses who say I never went near him in his bloody chair all night!

0:39:26 > 0:39:28- None of that was actually in Richard's diary, was it?- No.

0:39:41 > 0:39:42Rouge Et Le Noir...

0:39:43 > 0:39:44..Speak French...

0:39:59 > 0:40:00It's getting late.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05You should get some sleep.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08We're so close. We have to be!

0:40:09 > 0:40:12And yet, WHY did he have to die?

0:40:18 > 0:40:20- Well, good night, Sir. - Yes. Good night, Camille.

0:40:29 > 0:40:31'Hi, you're through to Sally. I'm not here right now

0:40:31 > 0:40:34'but please leave a message and I'll get back to you.'

0:40:34 > 0:40:35BEEP

0:40:38 > 0:40:40OK, everyone. We are missing something.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44Means.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46All four of them had access to the murder weapon.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48Doesn't help. Opportunity.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50Um, they all went out onto the veranda at one point or another.

0:40:50 > 0:40:51Doesn't help, either,

0:40:51 > 0:40:54but at least neither means nor opportunity rules any of them out.

0:40:54 > 0:40:57Which brings us back to the one thing we keep coming back to.

0:40:57 > 0:40:58Motive.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01Yes, but do we really believe someone waited all that time to kill him?

0:41:01 > 0:41:03- We don't believe there was an intruder, either.- No.

0:41:03 > 0:41:07Then something must have happened after they arrived in Saint-Marie, something that provided a motive.

0:41:07 > 0:41:09You know what really confuses me?

0:41:09 > 0:41:12Why kill him at the villa? And why that night?

0:41:12 > 0:41:15The man lives in a shack on a beach, miles from anyone.

0:41:15 > 0:41:16Why not kill him there?

0:41:16 > 0:41:18You're right! He was murdered at a party.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20It's as though the killer felt they had no choice,

0:41:20 > 0:41:23that Richard Poole had to die that evening! Why?

0:41:23 > 0:41:25Perhaps he was about to expose one of them.

0:41:25 > 0:41:27Yes! That's it! That's it! A ticking clock!

0:41:30 > 0:41:34He knew something, didn't he? Or, at the very least, suspected it.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36That's why he sent home for these things.

0:41:37 > 0:41:42He believed that something in here would confirm what he discovered.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46But what? Come on!

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Right. There's a flight into Paris leaving at three

0:41:54 > 0:41:57and a connecting flight into London. They've got seats if we want them.

0:41:57 > 0:41:58What about the police?

0:41:58 > 0:42:00Well, we've answered all their bloody questions.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02They can't stop us from going home. Come on.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Ange? Come on.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22I've just spoken to a clerk at Angela Birkett's law practice.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Took a little bit of the old Dwayne love dust,

0:42:24 > 0:42:27but she told me that Angela hasn't been in any kind of relationship

0:42:27 > 0:42:29since she started there eight years ago.

0:42:29 > 0:42:31What is the "Dwayne love dust"?

0:42:31 > 0:42:32Don't ask!

0:42:32 > 0:42:34The police report from the traffic accident that Sasha Moore was

0:42:34 > 0:42:35involved in, Sir.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38Seems like a lorry had a puncture, swerved into two lanes.

0:42:38 > 0:42:42Her sister was driving, but there was nothing she could do. Helen was killed instantly.

0:42:42 > 0:42:43OK. Thanks, Fidel.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46And only Roger Sadler and Angela Birkett had social network sites.

0:42:46 > 0:42:47- Bit about the reunion but...- OK!

0:42:48 > 0:42:51Enough of the information overload!

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Let's keep it simple. The mementos.

0:42:54 > 0:42:57Why did he need the stuff he sent for?

0:42:59 > 0:43:01And the book. Come on!

0:43:01 > 0:43:02Why take a book to a party?

0:43:02 > 0:43:04What was he up to?

0:43:04 > 0:43:05It's like he's testing us.

0:43:05 > 0:43:08Yes, well, you know, that would be the chief all over, Sir.

0:43:09 > 0:43:12'And the book was on the floor, which is a bit of a puzzle.

0:43:12 > 0:43:14- 'It was in French.'- Testing!

0:43:14 > 0:43:16It looks like things from his time at university.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19'Haven't seen the man for 25 years!'

0:43:19 > 0:43:21He helped her with her dissertation.

0:43:21 > 0:43:24But no, of course! Of course! Testing us!

0:43:24 > 0:43:27PHONE RINGS

0:43:27 > 0:43:28Honore Police Station?

0:43:43 > 0:43:45- Bloody hell!- You got something?

0:43:48 > 0:43:51That was the hotel, the reunion party's checking out.

0:43:51 > 0:43:52What?! We need to stop them!

0:43:52 > 0:43:54Yes! Stop them!

0:43:54 > 0:43:55Fidel.

0:43:57 > 0:43:59Look at this.

0:44:00 > 0:44:01What am I looking at?

0:44:01 > 0:44:05Name at the top. Got the who, just need the how.

0:44:07 > 0:44:09- Where's the Jeep?- Huh?

0:44:09 > 0:44:12- There's no Jeep?- Camille took it.

0:44:12 > 0:44:15What do we do, then?

0:44:15 > 0:44:16Oh...no!

0:44:32 > 0:44:34Splendid!

0:44:39 > 0:44:41Lovely.

0:44:41 > 0:44:43Splendid.

0:44:51 > 0:44:52Got it.

0:45:09 > 0:45:10What are they all doing here?

0:45:10 > 0:45:13This is the part where you expose the killer.

0:45:13 > 0:45:15In front of everyone?

0:45:15 > 0:45:18It's how Richard did it.

0:45:18 > 0:45:21- Really?- Yes.

0:45:21 > 0:45:23Look, can someone tell us what the bloody hell is going on,

0:45:23 > 0:45:26- because we all have a plane to catch.- We've answered all your questions.

0:45:26 > 0:45:29Ah, no, you've answered some of them.

0:45:29 > 0:45:31Some I haven't asked yet.

0:45:31 > 0:45:33HUMPHREY SIGHS

0:45:33 > 0:45:35Sorry.

0:45:35 > 0:45:40You know, bizarrely, I'm the only one who never met Richard Poole.

0:45:40 > 0:45:42But during this case, I...I feel as though

0:45:42 > 0:45:45I've got to know him...a little.

0:45:45 > 0:45:48Mostly by the effect he had on those around him.

0:45:49 > 0:45:53But it seems we all forgot one very crucial thing...

0:45:53 > 0:45:56he was a detective.

0:45:56 > 0:45:58A good one.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01I think he made a discovery, had a theory about what he discovered

0:46:01 > 0:46:04and then sent home for evidence to corroborate that theory.

0:46:04 > 0:46:09And in doing so, he has in essence...solved his own murder.

0:46:09 > 0:46:13You know, the biggest problem we had was establishing a motive.

0:46:13 > 0:46:17Why kill someone you haven't seen for 25 years?

0:46:17 > 0:46:19It...it simply can't be any of us,

0:46:19 > 0:46:21we were in sight of each other the whole time!

0:46:21 > 0:46:24Apart from Roger when he went out to light the barbecue.

0:46:24 > 0:46:27Now...now hold on a second, I didn't bloody kill anyone,

0:46:27 > 0:46:30- I didn't go anywhere near him.- No, you didn't.

0:46:30 > 0:46:34- What?- I said you didn't kill Richard Poole.

0:46:34 > 0:46:37Oh, right, good.

0:46:37 > 0:46:39Thank you.

0:46:39 > 0:46:42- Then there were three. - ANGELA SIGHS

0:46:42 > 0:46:44I can't bear this! I've told you all I know,

0:46:44 > 0:46:47I wouldn't have hurt Richard, you all know that!

0:46:47 > 0:46:49I-I-I...I loved him.

0:46:49 > 0:46:51And I believe you.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53SHE SIGHS

0:46:53 > 0:46:55And then there were two.

0:46:57 > 0:47:02You see...it was a little like the goose, the fox and the beans...

0:47:02 > 0:47:07working out who did what, when...and in what order.

0:47:07 > 0:47:10First, Angela checked he was all right.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12Why don't you come in, Richard, it'll be fun?

0:47:12 > 0:47:14She asked him if he wanted another cup of tea.

0:47:14 > 0:47:17But when she left him, we believe he was still alive.

0:47:17 > 0:47:21Then a little later, you took him out his bowl of crisps.

0:47:21 > 0:47:25Remind me...who was it who suggested playing charades that night?

0:47:25 > 0:47:28It was you, wasn't it, Sash?

0:47:28 > 0:47:30It might have been. Why?

0:47:30 > 0:47:33Why, because it was well known Richard hated playing games,

0:47:33 > 0:47:36so how better for his killer to isolate him from the group.

0:47:36 > 0:47:40Yes, you needed him to be on his own away from the others, didn't you?

0:47:40 > 0:47:42So that you could murder him.

0:47:42 > 0:47:43ANGELA SIGHS

0:47:43 > 0:47:46No.

0:47:46 > 0:47:48- No!- That can't be right.

0:47:48 > 0:47:51Richard was still alive when Sasha came back inside.

0:47:51 > 0:47:54H-H-He drank the tea, he ate the food.

0:47:54 > 0:47:56Not quite, cos Sasha had an accomplice.

0:47:59 > 0:48:00James.

0:48:00 > 0:48:03What?!

0:48:03 > 0:48:05- Angela... - HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:48:05 > 0:48:08..when Richard asked you for another cup of tea,

0:48:08 > 0:48:11did you take the old cup back into the house?

0:48:11 > 0:48:15- I don't think so.- Cos you did, didn't you?

0:48:15 > 0:48:17When you took him out his crisps.

0:48:18 > 0:48:22And you didn't take him out a new cup of tea, did you?

0:48:22 > 0:48:25- You took him out the old one.- I'll just take His Lordship this.

0:48:25 > 0:48:29All done to establish an alibi...for your wife.

0:48:29 > 0:48:32You see the "how"...was reasonably easy,

0:48:32 > 0:48:35once we knew that one of you committed the murder,

0:48:35 > 0:48:39but it was the "why"...the "why" that was the most elusive.

0:48:39 > 0:48:43Why would anyone kill an old friend they hadn't seen for 25 years?

0:48:43 > 0:48:48In fact, by this logic, Sasha was our least likely suspect.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50After all, she and Richard were best mates in college.

0:48:50 > 0:48:51But that's how...

0:48:51 > 0:48:56that's how I knew it had to be you who wielded the ice pick.

0:48:56 > 0:48:58Richard Poole wasn't killed by an old friend

0:48:58 > 0:49:01as we've been thinking all along.

0:49:01 > 0:49:04He was killed by a relative stranger.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07What are you talking about?

0:49:07 > 0:49:09Because you're not Sasha Moore...

0:49:10 > 0:49:14..you're Helen Reed...her sister.

0:49:14 > 0:49:18Only one year separated two sisters, Sasha and Helen Reed.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20Both attended the same university.

0:49:20 > 0:49:23In the police file from the road traffic accident you were both involved in,

0:49:23 > 0:49:27there's a police report showing an earlier conviction for shoplifting.

0:49:27 > 0:49:28Which was around the time

0:49:28 > 0:49:30Sasha founded her computer software company.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33Unlike her, you were unemployed, you had no money.

0:49:33 > 0:49:35And even years later, after your much more successful sister

0:49:35 > 0:49:39sold her company for a small fortune, you were still struggling.

0:49:40 > 0:49:44What happened after that car accident?

0:49:44 > 0:49:47Two sisters both injured, one fatally.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51Was there some confusion about who was who?

0:49:51 > 0:49:53Did someone ask you if you were Sasha?

0:49:53 > 0:49:56Was the opportunity just too good to miss?

0:50:02 > 0:50:05Had the affair with her sister already started?

0:50:05 > 0:50:09Or did it begin once she got control of your dead wife's fortune?

0:50:12 > 0:50:14This...is the real Sasha.

0:50:14 > 0:50:19Full of life and joy, about to marry her college sweetheart, James.

0:50:20 > 0:50:24And this is you. You already looked a bit like your sister,

0:50:24 > 0:50:27but helped on with a touch of cosmetic surgery...

0:50:27 > 0:50:30Didn't you say you had your cosmetic surgery here?

0:50:30 > 0:50:32No, that was St Lucia, darling.

0:50:32 > 0:50:35None of you had seen each other for years,

0:50:35 > 0:50:38so when Angie called up and asked you to attend the reunion,

0:50:38 > 0:50:40you thought you'd be able to get away with it.

0:50:40 > 0:50:43- Until you bumped into Richard.- What are you all doing here?!

0:50:43 > 0:50:45Yes, Richard, not only a detective,

0:50:45 > 0:50:49but someone who knew the real Sasha better than all of you.

0:50:49 > 0:50:53- I think he was on to you from the start.- It's no wonder you were cold with him,

0:50:53 > 0:50:57you hardly knew him at all. And when you lost your temper with him,

0:50:57 > 0:50:59you were not being jealous,

0:50:59 > 0:51:02you were simply trying to prevent him from speaking to Sasha.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05In the end there are two pieces of damning evidence.

0:51:05 > 0:51:07This is the book Richard brought with him that night.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09- You said you hadn't read it. - I haven't read it.

0:51:09 > 0:51:12- Which is rather the point. - HE LAUGHS

0:51:14 > 0:51:18This is a photograph taken from the box Richard sent home for.

0:51:18 > 0:51:22I believe it's a photograph celebrating Sasha's dissertation.

0:51:22 > 0:51:26It's very hard to see with the naked eye, but...if you look closely,

0:51:26 > 0:51:30you can see a copy of the finished dissertation in front of Sasha.

0:51:30 > 0:51:33Le Rouge Et Le Noir.

0:51:36 > 0:51:40Which is why Richard was holding a book we know he couldn't read,

0:51:40 > 0:51:42he brought it with him that night as a final test

0:51:42 > 0:51:46to confirm his suspicion that you were not the Sasha he knew.

0:51:46 > 0:51:48Found it in the market.

0:51:50 > 0:51:51Do you know it?

0:51:51 > 0:51:53No...I don't know it.

0:51:59 > 0:52:02- When you realised Richard Poole was on to you...- He knows.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05..you decided to kill him.

0:52:05 > 0:52:08Trust me, he knows.

0:52:08 > 0:52:09I'll do it.

0:52:10 > 0:52:16All of which...I suppose, may be regarded as circumstantial...

0:52:18 > 0:52:19..until we see this.

0:52:21 > 0:52:25Helen Reed's shoplifting conviction.

0:52:25 > 0:52:26The prints on this

0:52:26 > 0:52:29match the exclusion prints you gave us after the murder,

0:52:29 > 0:52:32leading me to make only one conclusion,

0:52:32 > 0:52:36which is why Richard had to die and he had to die that evening.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38You had to protect your secret.

0:52:40 > 0:52:44LAUGHTER OVERLAPPING VOICES

0:52:48 > 0:52:50Richard?

0:52:50 > 0:52:52HE GASPS

0:52:53 > 0:52:56Sorry about that.

0:53:43 > 0:53:44HE SIGHS

0:53:59 > 0:54:03He'd still be alive, wouldn't he, if I hadn't brought her here?

0:54:13 > 0:54:15HE CHATS INDISTINCTLY

0:54:20 > 0:54:23- Well done, sir.- Well done to all of us, Fidel.

0:54:23 > 0:54:25I'm sure the Inspector would've been proud of you.

0:54:25 > 0:54:27Yes, I'm sure he would have.

0:54:27 > 0:54:30- There is just one thing still bothering me.- Yes?

0:54:30 > 0:54:32- The fox, the goose and the bag of beans.- Ah! Well, you see,

0:54:32 > 0:54:35you take the goose over first and then go back for the beans...

0:54:35 > 0:54:40- Yes, but then won't the goose eat the beans when you go back for the fox?- No.

0:54:40 > 0:54:42And here's the clever bit.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45When you go back for the fox, you take the beans with you.

0:54:45 > 0:54:47I'm sorry, you take the goose with you. I think.

0:54:51 > 0:54:54Well, I'd better start writing up my report.

0:54:54 > 0:55:00Ah, erm...where are all my bits of...paper and stuff.

0:55:00 > 0:55:03Erm...

0:55:03 > 0:55:05I put them on your desk, Sir.

0:55:07 > 0:55:08Oh.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15- Good night.- Yes, er...yes, good night, Camille.

0:56:38 > 0:56:40That's really sweet of you, but er...I shouldn't.

0:56:40 > 0:56:46- Why not?- Well, you all need to spend a bit of time

0:56:46 > 0:56:50to say goodbye to Richard in your own way.

0:56:50 > 0:56:52It'd be a bit awkward if I was there.

0:56:52 > 0:56:55- HE CLEARS HIS THROAT - I need to unpack.

0:56:56 > 0:56:58If I can find a taxi.
