0:00:27 > 0:00:31BEEPING
0:00:31 > 0:00:34CONTINUOUS BEEP
0:00:51 > 0:00:53'This is my fate.
0:00:55 > 0:01:02'The giver of eternal decay clings to my senses like an invisible parasite,
0:01:02 > 0:01:08'feeding on my rationale and eroding all that I thought real.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11'Heavy and thick.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15'I can taste its presence like acidic bile,
0:01:15 > 0:01:20'feel its skinless touch as it paralyses me
0:01:20 > 0:01:25'with stark and torturous images of panic and terror.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28'I pity the victims,
0:01:28 > 0:01:32'but I am powerless.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35'The inevitable inevitability.'
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Process those, please.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40'The dream state gone.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43'The waking state gone.
0:01:43 > 0:01:51'Just a brief memory of self before it descends into that murderous state of limbo.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55'I am addicted.
0:01:55 > 0:02:01'Addicted not to their misery and pain, but to that which defines me.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06'I am the witness. The messenger.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14'The truth is all around me and I can no longer deny.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17'Resist.'
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Death is in the air.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Are you all right to continue?
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I shouldn't be here.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Just tell them the truth.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35They don't believe me.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40You're up early.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Couldn't sleep. Thought I'd make a start on the sequel.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50What is it?
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Someone's going to die down there...soon.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Adam. Adam!
0:03:04 > 0:03:09- I've contacted Mid TV. They want to interview you. - What!- Just listen.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Mum said the gift was from God and we should respect it.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14I...I can't do it.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18- You said somebody's going to die out there. Do you even care? - You know I do.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21But there's nothing I can do about it.
0:03:21 > 0:03:27Maybe not this time, but if you can get people to listen then they'll start to take you seriously.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30- It's the only way.- I know. - Then do the interview.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33I...
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- I need more time to think about it. - We haven't got more time.
0:03:36 > 0:03:41It needs to happen now while there's still enough media interest in this girl's death.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43It's now or never.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45All right.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50So you admit that you were obsessed with her?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- No, not obsessed. - Then how would you put it?
0:03:54 > 0:03:55I...
0:03:55 > 0:03:58I was a bit...infatuated, I suppose.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Meaning what, exactly?
0:04:03 > 0:04:07She wasn't like anyone I'd been out with before.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I never knew where I stood, which just made me want her more.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Sounds like she messed with your head.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16But I'd never do anything to hurt her.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Like I said, I'm not a violent person.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21In spite of punching her wall.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24- How many more times...? - She must have really got to you?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27I was frustrated, angry with her.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28- So you did want to hurt her?- No.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- Is that why you killed her?- No!
0:04:30 > 0:04:33No.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Maybe we should ease off for a bit.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Someone might see us together.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40You worry too much.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Oh, I've made you an appointment at the Mill.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47- You've what?- So you can casually let slip about the receptionist.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Why?- Think about it.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54When the TV crew arrive, it'll be far more credible if the staff are already gossiping about it.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56I already am credible.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58And lay it on thick with the doctor.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00The more people that believe you, the better.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02You make me sound like a fake.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04It's at 11.20. See you later.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- But I'm feeling OK. What will I say?- I don't know.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Ask for a repeat prescription or something.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Shut up!
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Thank you, doctor.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Take care, Mr Withers.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35Just spoke to Rob. We're free to go abroad.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Surely you are not going away on holiday at a time like this?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42So anyway, Greece here we come.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Actually, Mrs Tembe's got a point.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48We can't just abandon Julia with everything that is going on.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52- You need a break. This stress is not good for you. - Well, we don't have a choice.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03I was also wondering if it's OK to take sleeping tablets with my condition?
0:06:03 > 0:06:09- Certain ones, yes.- It's just that my senses are very acute.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13Sometimes I can hear a spider crawling on the carpet
0:06:13 > 0:06:16or even my neighbour breathing next door.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Really?
0:06:18 > 0:06:24Something behind me... I can hear it...
0:06:24 > 0:06:30moving ever so slightly in the left corner of the ceiling.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Have your senses always been like this?
0:06:38 > 0:06:39Yes.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42But over time they've become heightened.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47And I've discovered I possess another sense.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50I can predict when someone is about to die.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54That's quite a claim.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- When did you first realise? - About a year ago.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01About the time your mother passed away?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03You've suffered from severe grief.
0:07:03 > 0:07:08Perhaps this sense of death
0:07:08 > 0:07:11is actually a feeling of misplaced guilt?
0:07:11 > 0:07:18- Guilt?- Born out of the helplessness you said you felt during her illness.- No.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It started while Mum was in the care home.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24I was able to predict which resident would die next.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- I see. - You don't believe me, do you?
0:07:28 > 0:07:32That's not what I said, but in a care home
0:07:32 > 0:07:37predictions of the elderly dying is not difficult.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42I'm right all of the time.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45And my predictions don't just concern the elderly.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51The day before your receptionist was murdered,
0:07:51 > 0:07:53I told her she was going to die.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Let's go over your whereabouts at the time of the murder.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01- But we've been through this. - Then tell us again.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03You might have missed something.
0:08:05 > 0:08:11After I left Lauren's house, I went for a walk, I ended up in the cemetery.
0:08:11 > 0:08:12Odd place to go.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Unless you've got some sort of obsession with death?
0:08:15 > 0:08:22It's not like that. I visited my gran's grave. I sometimes go there when I'm stressed out.
0:08:22 > 0:08:27I tried to warn her but she just laughed.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32She looked so pale, as if...
0:08:32 > 0:08:35That's enough! Please.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'm sorry.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40I should go.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Despite what you think,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48my predictions always come true.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51The staff at Mum's care home,
0:08:51 > 0:08:56- they were amazed at what I could do.- Sorry, Mr Vespor, but it's time for my next patient.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00You're just like everyone else.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- It must have been hard for you and your mum?- We coped.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Even so, not seeing your father
0:09:13 > 0:09:16or having any contact with the Asian side of your family.
0:09:16 > 0:09:21Something like that must really screw you up, make you question who you are.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Look, I know exactly who I am and I'm not a murderer!
0:09:24 > 0:09:30Well, let's recap, shall we? You have no witnesses to corroborate your alibi.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33You had motive, she'd humiliated you. You were angry.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37We have DNA evidence that places you at the scene of the crime on the day she died!
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Are you still not a murderer?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40HE VOMITS
0:09:40 > 0:09:43We'll resume after lunch...
0:09:43 > 0:09:45if I can keep it down.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Interview suspended at 11.40.
0:09:52 > 0:09:57I don't suppose you know where he was moving to?
0:09:57 > 0:09:58Do you have a number?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Everything OK?
0:10:03 > 0:10:07- Not really. - Tough patient?- Mr Vespor.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10He claimed he predicted Lauren's death.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12What?
0:10:17 > 0:10:18How many have you had?
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Dutch courage before my big performance.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28- There hasn't been an accident or anything down there, has there?- No.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32I can't help being worried. The feeling was very strong earlier.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Stop going on about it.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36How can I?
0:10:36 > 0:10:39There's going to be a death soon.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41I can feel it.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50- They'll die. What the hell are you doing? - Making your prediction come true.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Happy now?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54That's not funny.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57I've got a gift. You shouldn't mock it.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- I thought you were the one person who believed in me.- I do.
0:11:05 > 0:11:11But let's not play games. We both know that your senses aren't as heightened as you'd like to believe!
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Oh, don't start sulking.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Hadn't you better be going? You're going to be late.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Come on. You can't get cold feet now.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- I'm here for Doctor Tyler's bag. - What exactly do they want it for?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32It's part of the ongoing investigation.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35I honestly don't know why they didn't take it in the first place.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40- We've had some more information that... - What kind of information?
0:11:40 > 0:11:44Look, this is a murder case. I'm not at liberty to reveal any more.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50- Sorry, I'm just in a hurry. - It's behind you.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Thanks.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Thank you.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Thanks.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03Thank you.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15I'm standing outside the Mill Health Centre
0:12:15 > 0:12:18where local man, Adam Vespor, claims to have warned Lauren Porter
0:12:18 > 0:12:22that she was going to die the day before she was brutally murdered.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Mr Vespor, how did Ms Porter react to your prediction?
0:12:25 > 0:12:27She didn't believe me.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31I tried and tried to get through to her, but she just wouldn't listen.
0:12:31 > 0:12:37His mother was at your care home. That's right.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38Were his predictions accurate?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40That'll do for now.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- We'll finish up at the care home. - OK.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Come on, let's get a staff reaction.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Would you mind if I asked you a few questions?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50I've got nothing to say.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Did you know your colleague's death had been predicted by a psychic?
0:12:53 > 0:12:58- No comment.- What can you tell us about Adam Vespor?- Can you keep that out of my face, please?
0:12:58 > 0:13:02But he is a patient of yours? Did Lauren Porter speak to you about him?
0:13:02 > 0:13:07Mr Vespor always seemed like a reasonable, sensitive man to me.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Why would he lie about Lauren's death?
0:13:10 > 0:13:11What do you think he's playing at?
0:13:11 > 0:13:15I'm not sure. I've just been on the phone to his mother's old care home.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- What for? - Just to see what they'd say.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21Apparently there are reports of his predictions coming true.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Come on, Elaine, you don't seriously think he's psychic?
0:13:24 > 0:13:28No, but he's a very perceptive man.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31Yes, I did the interview.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Well, I don't feel great about it.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Mum would've been livid.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42Anyway, I'll see you in a minute - I'm nearly home.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55It'll help settle your stomach.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01It's not looking good.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10You do know I didn't do it, don't you?
0:14:10 > 0:14:14In my capacity as police surgeon, I can't really comment.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21You're just like everyone else.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Kevin, listen, a lot of people think you're innocent.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33Well, you look pleased with yourself.
0:14:33 > 0:14:38That sense of death I had this morning, it was for a cat.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43Well, that's good. Listen, I'm sorry about earlier.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46I really do believe in you.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- Honestly?- Of course.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53So tell me, can you sense what I want right now?
0:14:53 > 0:14:58My doctor told me not to overexert myself.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06You'd better go.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Doctor Cassidy.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- Have you any idea the upset you've caused? - I didn't mean to.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20The last thing we need right now is more journalists hanging round the health centre.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- It's a very traumatic time. - Sorry. It wasn't my idea to do the interview.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28- It was stupid.- Then why did you? - So people would believe me.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31- You know there are scientific tests you can take?- No.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34The university are researching ESP...
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Look, I don't need someone telling me what I already know.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40I've had it since I was a child.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43I just didn't know what it was then.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44I'm only trying to help.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50I inherited it from my mum.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52She told me before she died.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Is it really so inconceivable to you?
0:15:55 > 0:16:02- No. If I'm honest, I don't know what I think. - Meaning what, exactly?
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Well, let's just say I'm more open-minded than most of my colleagues.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08But please, whatever the truth,
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- don't involve the Mill or any of the staff any more.- I won't.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Thanks for coming in.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24So, you going to arrest me now as well?
0:16:24 > 0:16:29It's part of the investigation. We'll be interviewing all of Kevin's colleagues in due course.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32Let's start with his relationship with Lauren.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Did you ever witness him being violent towards her?
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Did he ever threaten her?
0:16:38 > 0:16:41You know, this room stinks of desperation.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Just answer the question.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47You haven't got enough to make it stick, have you?
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Look, a colleague of yours has been murdered,
0:16:49 > 0:16:53her body mutilated. If you know anything, you need to tell us.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57There isn't anything
0:16:57 > 0:17:00and the rest of the staff, they'll all tell you the same.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02He's incapable of hurting anyone,
0:17:02 > 0:17:05- let alone murdering them. - Are you sure?
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Absolutely.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11You've got the wrong person, but I think you know that already.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Well, I finally got hold of Heston.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23He had lost his phone and had been staying with friends in Florence.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27- What did he say about Lauren? - He was shocked.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30He's getting the first flight back.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31Thank goodness!
0:17:31 > 0:17:35At a time like this, we need a strong man around.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40So we'll be able to get away.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43You never give up, do you?
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Better start packing, then.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51'Earlier today, I spoke to a carer at the Cherry Tree care home.'
0:17:51 > 0:17:56I was sceptical at first, but all his predictions came true.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- Extraordinary.- I don't think so!
0:18:00 > 0:18:05'..in his head. When he heard it. That was when somebody was going to die.'
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Uniform have completed the search of Tyler's house.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- Nothing.- Oh, great.
0:18:19 > 0:18:25- Harrison.- Jack. - Working on anything interesting?
0:18:25 > 0:18:28I was just catching up with some paperwork.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32- I've been going over Lauren's murder to see if anything's been missed. - Really?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Well, like I say, I need to get this finished.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- We should catch up later.- You won't believe what I've worked out.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41You know, I'm not even sure Kevin's the murderer.
0:18:41 > 0:18:46- What do you mean?- Think about it, the police say Lauren's killer was trying to mimic the Scraper,
0:18:46 > 0:18:50but how would Kevin know which finger to cut off?
0:18:50 > 0:18:54- Read it in the papers. - But you said that detail wasn't given to the press.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Have you mentioned this to your dad?
0:19:06 > 0:19:10Not yet. He'd probably just tell me to butt out and leave it to the experts.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Well, I'm afraid your theory is flawed.
0:19:16 > 0:19:21- Flawed?- I remember reading an article which did say which finger.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23These things always get leaked.
0:19:23 > 0:19:27- I really must get crack on. - But I've looked through all the newspapers.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29You must have missed something.
0:19:29 > 0:19:36An easy mistake to make - just don't make assumptions until you have all the facts.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Yeah.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Good effort though.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Anyway, I'll leave you to it.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Yeah.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03Mum...I didn't mean to lie.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06I had to.
0:21:06 > 0:21:07Mum.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Mum.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Speak to me.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30DOORBELL RINGS
0:21:41 > 0:21:44We won't be questioning you any more today.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46So what happens next?
0:21:46 > 0:21:49That depends if any more evidence comes to light.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53But what if you can't find any more evidence, what then? Will I be released?
0:21:53 > 0:21:59- It's a possibility.- When? - Theoretically tomorrow morning.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10I saw you kissing one of the care assistants from the home.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13You're involved in some sort of scam, aren't you?
0:22:13 > 0:22:17- I had you down as a decent person. - I am.
0:22:17 > 0:22:23- So give me one good reason why I shouldn't go to the police?- I can sense when someone is about to die.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27It's just I've been a bit economical with the truth.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Economical?
0:22:29 > 0:22:32How accurate are your predictions from the care home?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36They were more like...50%.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38That's half what you claimed.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42And Lauren Porter, did you really tell her she was going to die?
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Not exactly.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49- But I did sense something when I saw her at the Mill. - That's hardly the same.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53I know, I know, but I needed to convince people of my gift.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00I wrote it a year ago.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02The sales have been bad.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06But the publishers said if they picked up, they'd give my next book a big launch.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10And you a big advance, no doubt.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13It's not about the money. I didn't know what to do.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17So you thought you'd latch onto the media frenzy surrounding my colleague's death?
0:23:17 > 0:23:21No-one would take me seriously. They think I'm a crank.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23They're wrong.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25You're a parasite...
0:23:25 > 0:23:29and I'm going to make sure everyone knows the truth.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Doctor Cassidy, please...
0:23:40 > 0:23:43- I never meant to hurt anyone. - I'm not interested.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- What's happened? - She knows everything.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55- You're joking. Can't you pay her off?- You're not serious!
0:23:55 > 0:24:00- We have to do something. You could lose the advance on the new book. - I don't care.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04I do! I don't want to be mopping backsides in that poxy home forever.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Is that all you care about?
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Well, what else are we doing it for?
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I should never have agreed.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12- I wish I'd never met you.- You what?!
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Who the hell do you think you are?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17You've turned my gift into a mockery.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21- You haven't got a gift, you never have.- Don't say that!
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Go on. Make your "death prediction" come true.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31You're a fake.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35You know it's true. You're a fake!
0:24:45 > 0:24:49Doctor Cassidy! Doctor Cassidy!
0:25:01 > 0:25:02Are you in pain?
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Death...
0:25:08 > 0:25:13It was very close to you. It still is.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16You can cut the amateur dramatics. you won't change my mind.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18But it's the truth.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Death is near.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27- The feeling's very strong. - After all your lies.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10I visited my gran's grave.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12I sometimes go there when I'm stressed out.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14I guess I'd better have these back.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17You runty little weasel! Come here!
0:27:17 > 0:27:19You're a bungler, Hollins.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22An incompetent plodding bungler.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Letherbridge nick? I've robbed a house. Please come and get me.
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Why haven't you charged me yet?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Don't go getting your hopes up.
