0:00:34 > 0:00:35You're going to be late.
0:00:35 > 0:00:38- I'm dying. - No, you're hungover.
0:00:38 > 0:00:39Tell Bazza I'm sick.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Or you could write me a doctor's note.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45That's genius! Why didn't I think of that before?
0:00:45 > 0:00:48No, I'm not writing you a doctor's note. Now get up, or you'll lose your job.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Didn't you say you really liked this job?
0:00:50 > 0:00:53It was like a babe pick 'n' mix counter?
0:00:53 > 0:00:54It's today!
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- What is? - The Miss Letherbridge University Beauty Pageant!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00They still do that kind of thing?
0:01:01 > 0:01:04- I need medical assistance. - You'll be fine, mate.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07It's an emergency! Haven't you got something tucked
0:01:07 > 0:01:08away in your medical bag?
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Fine, if it means I'll get you out of the house,
0:01:10 > 0:01:11I'll find you two aspirin.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14And don't forget I'm at the station today. I can't give you a lift.
0:01:14 > 0:01:15What?
0:01:25 > 0:01:26Excuse me?
0:01:27 > 0:01:32Excuse me. We need to report a missing person.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Two people! One's a baby. - If you see the desk sergeant...
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Driver. Tell him he'll just have to wait!
0:01:38 > 0:01:41I'm sure someone will see you soon.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51So how was the rest of the party? Did I miss anything?
0:01:51 > 0:01:53No.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Just, you know, normal.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57People getting to know each other.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01Talking of people getting to know each other, it's team-building day tomorrow.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03I thought everyone was going on a computer course.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05- That's changed.- Right.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Of course. So what are we doing now?
0:02:08 > 0:02:12Haven't decided yet. Sadly, the white-water rafting centre was fully booked.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Never mind, I'll think of something.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Before I forget, could you check to see when they're coming to fix the boiler?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22- Is Barry here? - I haven't seen him.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26- Yeah, about last night... - Don't worry about it.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Mandy very kindly helped me clear up this morning.
0:02:29 > 0:02:34- How's the head? - A bit ropey first thing,
0:02:34 > 0:02:36but now I'm back to my usual peak of physical fitness.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Oh! Smells like something died.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Where have you been?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44You were supposed to meet me
0:02:44 > 0:02:48outside the union at 09:00 hours.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I specifically asked you not to be late!
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- I thought you said meet you here! - I did not!
0:02:55 > 0:02:59I've already got an angry mob of militant feminists to deal with,
0:02:59 > 0:03:02and the contestants haven't even arrived yet!
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Excuse me?
0:03:10 > 0:03:15What? The university's holding a beauty pageant?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17There are protestors outside already.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Eh, you don't think they'll start burning bras, do you?
0:03:20 > 0:03:23We should probably get a fire extinguisher ready, just in case.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24This is...
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- Brilliant? - No, it's degrading!
0:03:28 > 0:03:32- To be fair, it is all for charity. - It's still exploitation!
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I'm just doing my job, love.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Come on, you.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- Sorry to keep you waiting. - Busy morning?
0:03:45 > 0:03:47One of our CSOs got stabbed last night.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49She tried to stop a fight.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Still in intensive care in St Phil's. Only 25.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Half CID are tied up taking witness statements.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58We could do the briefing another time if you want?
0:03:58 > 0:04:01- It's just the usual.- You're here now. It won't take long, will it?
0:04:01 > 0:04:05PHONE RINGS I told you I'm in a briefing.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Dr Clay?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11All right.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15You're needed. Problem at reception. Come on, we can walk and talk.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22That's it, nice and slow. Take it easy, honey.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24Hi, I'm Dr Clay. Could you sit up straight for me, please?
0:04:24 > 0:04:26- Her name's Laura. - What's happened?
0:04:26 > 0:04:27It's her asthma.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Do you have an asthma pump on you, Laura?
0:04:29 > 0:04:31It's run out.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34OK. Lucky for you. When I'm here, I always carry a spare just in case.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Hold it down as long as possible.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Stress tends to set people off.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Like being kept hanging around all morning?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44It's a very busy day.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Busy? There's a child missing!
0:04:46 > 0:04:49We're talking about kidnapping here.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- Kidnapping? - Murder, even!
0:04:53 > 0:04:56I'll get someone to take a statement as soon as possible.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Next time someone's struggling to breathe, call an ambulance!
0:04:58 > 0:05:01As soon as she can move, take them through to the interview room.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04I'll get someone to meet them there and take a statement.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06If it's OK with you, I'd like to stay with her for a bit?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08- Just in case.- OK.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13That's why Jimmi's so uptight at the moment.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17He needs to get back in the saddle. There are other forms of exercise other than running,
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- if you know what I'm saying? - Enough gabbing. You're on the door.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23If any of that lot get inside, there'll be hell to pay.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25No problems. I'm on it.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29And tuck your shirt in! Our uniforms are representative of...
0:05:31 > 0:05:36Don't worry, ladies. We're here for your personal protection.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Ooh.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Don't worry, boss. I won't let you down.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45Remember, we're not here to take sides.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Relax, I'm a natural diplomat.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Militant feminists, beauty queens, I'll flirt with anyone.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Good. Now, I'm off to find the organisers.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- You sure you'll be all right by yourself?- Aye, aye.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07I'm Franklyn Ward, Contestant Liaison Officer.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09You must be the future Miss Letherbridge?
0:06:13 > 0:06:15Unfortunately, everyone is still busy.
0:06:15 > 0:06:20- Can we not just tell you? - Me? I'm a DCI, I don't really...
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Please! There's an innocent little girl out there.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24She's just a baby!
0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's not advisable to keep Mrs Mowbray waiting too much longer.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34Peters, on your way out, call the CPS?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Tell them I'm going to have to postpone our meeting.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40So...
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- ..you're the baby's parents? - Yes. No.- Not yet.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51Sofia is an orphan. From Kovenia. We're trying to adopt her.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- How long has she been missing? - A week.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- A week? - And Andrei. He's missing too.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59- And who is Andrei? - He runs the adoption agency.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01We're not bothered about the money!
0:07:02 > 0:07:05We just want to make sure that they're safe.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06Wait a minute, what money?
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Why don't you start at the beginning?
0:07:11 > 0:07:15- We met Andrei in a cafe... - No, before that, honey.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17A couple of weeks ago, me and Laura,
0:07:17 > 0:07:21we went to an open day at a local adoption agency.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24The one where Andrei works?
0:07:24 > 0:07:25No, a different one.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27It didn't go very well.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31And talking of age, can I ask how old you are?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Yeah. I'm 47. Laura's 44.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37OK.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39- Is that a problem? - It is a little on the old side.
0:07:41 > 0:07:42What about lifestyle?
0:07:42 > 0:07:46Do you manage to exercise, eat healthily, that sort of thing?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48We do our best.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52OK, so what would you say was a typical meal?
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Oh.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56I see where you're going with this.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58What is it? Is it because we're both big people?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00What, you don't think we'd make good parents?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03No. Sorry, of course that's not what I'm saying.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07But social services will want to know that you'll be fit and healthy enough to look after a child.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12Not just now, but for the next eighteen years, and beyond.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15They won't have to worry about that. We're both as fit as a butcher's dog.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17That may be so, but you might want to lay off the sausages.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19I beg your pardon?!
0:08:19 > 0:08:22I...look, I just...look, you just got to ask yourself,
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- how much do you really want this baby?- Thanks for that!
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Wait!
0:08:31 > 0:08:34How can she say that?
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- No-one wants a baby more than me. - I know, honey. I know.
0:08:38 > 0:08:43You'd be a beautiful mum. Listen...come on, settle down.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Let me get you a cup of tea.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48That's it, then.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52All that time, and the IVF...for what?
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Now, don't say that.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58We'll sort it out, I promise.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Listen, listen, no more bacon butties, Scout's honour.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08You saw them other couples - younger than we are, fitter.
0:09:08 > 0:09:14Why would they let us adopt? Colin, it's never going to happen.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- It will, I promise.- Sorry to interrupt, can I join you?
0:09:17 > 0:09:18It's not a good time, mate.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22What if I said I could help you adopt?
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Andrei Metcalfe.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Sorry, I couldn't help overhearing your conversation.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31I run my own private adoption agency.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33We specialise in adoptions from overseas.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37OK, stop.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Thanks.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46I'm afraid I'm going to have to go.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49You're not even going to hear us out?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51We've had some bad news about one of our colleagues.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- I'm needed elsewhere. - The CSO?- What about Sofia?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57The man was clearly a con artist.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00There was probably never a baby in the first place.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Andrei was genuine!
0:10:01 > 0:10:03But real adoption agencies don't pick up customers in cafes.
0:10:03 > 0:10:04Exactly!
0:10:04 > 0:10:08He flashed you a few photos of a cute baby then stole your money,
0:10:08 > 0:10:10yeah? I'm sorry, I have to go.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12I'll send someone over when they're free. It might be a bit of a wait.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Let someone know if you need me.
0:10:20 > 0:10:25- Wait! We met the baby! We know she's in trouble.- Please?
0:10:28 > 0:10:29OK. I'll see what I can do.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39The heating's stuck on full in the dressing rooms -
0:10:39 > 0:10:43it's like a camel's armpit back there!
0:10:43 > 0:10:44The maintenance manager's not answering his phone
0:10:44 > 0:10:48and now one of the contestants has gone and fainted.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50- Muggins here is going to have to babysit her.- I'll do it!
0:10:51 > 0:10:53What about the protestors? I need you out here.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Most of them have got bored and gone home.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58I'll sit with her for a bit, and if she's no better I'll phone a doctor.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Thank you. That's very helpful.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I think you're finally starting to achieve your potential
0:11:10 > 0:11:11as an officer.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Can you call me as soon as she's out of theatre?
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Thanks.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25How is she?
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Not good. Can we postpone that briefing till next week?
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Of course, but I really think you should hear them out.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Who?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- Mr and Mrs Mowbray? - They've met the baby.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40They genuinely believe she's under threat.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41You can't ignore that.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44You telling me how to do my job, Dr Clay?
0:11:48 > 0:11:51These are certificates from the British and Kovenian governments.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53This is pictures of families with their adopted children.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57This little boy is from the same orphanage as Sofia.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00No, it wasn't that one. It was the other one.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- You said you met the baby? - Not at first.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Andrei wanted to make sure we'd make good parents.
0:12:08 > 0:12:13We'll need references. And we'll have to check your house.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- Our home? - To make sure it is suitable.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Do you mind if I ask, how much will it be?
0:12:19 > 0:12:22I'm sure you understand that it is expensive to bring a child
0:12:22 > 0:12:25in from abroad. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Let's make an appointment for me to come and check your home.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33If you pass the checks, we'll talk about money then.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- You think we will pass, though? - I don't see why not.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Now, would you like to see a photo of Sofia?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Yes, please.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Isn't she beautiful?
0:12:50 > 0:12:52We couldn't believe our luck.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- So he came round to your house? - Yeah, a few days later.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59I was so nervous, I spent the whole morning cleaning.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05- Last but not least. - I'm sorry if it's a bit messy.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08- You have other family in the area? - My parents. Just down the road.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11My brother's in Birmingham. He's got kids, too.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Good. A strong support network is very important.
0:13:14 > 0:13:19- That's all I need. I'll be in touch. - How did we do?
0:13:19 > 0:13:22I can't really discuss anything until we've checked
0:13:22 > 0:13:25out your references, but I think you'll be fine.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29- Thank you! Thank you so much. - So what happens now?
0:13:29 > 0:13:31When the paperwork's done, I think you should meet Sofia.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Get to know her.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35Thank you.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Did you go to where Sofia was staying?
0:13:41 > 0:13:43No, he brought her to our house that weekend.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46We had 24 hours with her.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- PHONE RINGS - Then, he said if we wanted to
0:13:49 > 0:13:51keep her, we could formally apply for the adoption.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54Sorry.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57Hi, Jimmi, it's an emergency!
0:13:57 > 0:14:00You've got to get yourself over to the student union
0:14:00 > 0:14:01as soon as you get this.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03I'm with this girl. She fainted and...
0:14:04 > 0:14:08I can't really talk over the phone, but she really needs your help.
0:14:08 > 0:14:09You've got to come. Quick as you can!
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Don't you worry, princess.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Your knight in shining armour is on his way.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21And at this stage,
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Andrei hadn't mentioned a specific amount of money?
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- No, not yet. - PHONE BEEPS
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Sorry, I have to take this. Excuse me.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35And he brought Sofia to stay with you like he promised?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Yes. She was...
0:14:38 > 0:14:39..she was perfect.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Clean, dry and ready for some lunch. - She likes you.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I think the feeling's mutual.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Who wouldn't love this beautiful face?
0:14:50 > 0:14:52You are clearly more than capable of looking after her,
0:14:52 > 0:14:53so I'll leave you to it.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58Before I go, there is one problem I need to discuss.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Sofia's case is somewhat unusual.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06She has been sold by the orphanage.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- What do you mean, sold? - To a gang.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12They buy children and smuggle them into the country to sell on.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15Highly illegal, of course, but the system is still so corrupt.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19- We try to save these children, find them good homes.- So...?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24So we are negotiating with the gang to secure her,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- but it may be more expensive than normal.- How much?
0:15:27 > 0:15:29£15,000.
0:15:29 > 0:15:3115,000!
0:15:32 > 0:15:34It's too much, love.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37I understand. I wish it was less,
0:15:37 > 0:15:40but these gangs can get a lot of money for these children.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Many are brought up to work in the sex trade.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Colin, we've got to do something.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Shouldn't you get the police involved?- No.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49I did that with another child.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52When the police started sniffing around, the child...
0:15:54 > 0:15:57..let's just say, the baby disappeared.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59I cannot risk that happening again.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Not with Sofia.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06- Perhaps it is better if I find a different couple? - Please?
0:16:06 > 0:16:07I don't know, love.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Look, keep her. Think about it. When I come back tomorrow...
0:16:13 > 0:16:14..decide then.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20So he left the baby with you?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23He could tell there was a real connection between us, you know?
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- Love at first sight. - KNOCK ON DOOR
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Sorry, I've got to go.
0:16:27 > 0:16:28There's some sort of emergency at the campus.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I've tried to call but I can't get through,
0:16:30 > 0:16:33so I'll be back as soon as I can. How are you feeling now?
0:16:33 > 0:16:34I'll be fine. Thank you.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35I'll be back as soon as I can.
0:16:38 > 0:16:39So I take it you got the money together?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Yes.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Where from? - Our savings.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45I had to borrow from my parents and some friends.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49But when Andrei got back there was another problem.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53They have sold her on already?
0:16:53 > 0:16:55Andrei, we had a deal. I've got you the money!
0:16:57 > 0:17:01They got a better price. 20,000. I am sorry.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02What have they done to you?
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Nothing.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07Please forgive me, I did my best.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10We'll just keep her. They'll never find us.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13I'm sorry, but one of them followed me here when I dropped her off.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15I should have never got you involved.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19Now, they know where you live, you are in danger, too.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22They want Sofia back. If I don't take her, then you, me
0:17:22 > 0:17:25and every other child I help is at risk.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Wait, we'll get another 5,000,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29you could take that to them instead, yeah?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32You said they only care about the money?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I don't know, how long will it take?
0:17:34 > 0:17:35A couple of days, please?
0:17:35 > 0:17:37It'll take too long.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38Can't you just give them this?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Like a deposit?
0:17:41 > 0:17:42We'll get them the rest of the money.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Andrei, please don't let them take her off you, please.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Look. I'll do my best to talk them round.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51She can't stay here, though.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Her safety is the most important thing.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56I'll take her to a friend. Somewhere secret.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59When I've done the deal, I'll bring her back to you.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01OK?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03BABY CRIES
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Look after her.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I promise.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15Wish me luck.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21I take it he never came back?
0:18:21 > 0:18:22That was a week ago.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25What if they found Sofia and snatched her back?
0:18:25 > 0:18:26No.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29What if they killed Andrei and stole all the money?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Or what if there was no gang?
0:18:31 > 0:18:33What do you mean?
0:18:33 > 0:18:34I'm sorry. I really am.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39But isn't it more likely that Sofia was Andrei's baby all along?
0:18:39 > 0:18:40I don't understand.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43He probably only came round so he could decide how much to take you for.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46- It's how these people work. - Andrei wouldn't do that!
0:18:46 > 0:18:49He said that the gang will be angry at him for not returning Sofia.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- What if...? - KNOCK ON DOOR
0:18:55 > 0:18:57What is it?
0:18:58 > 0:18:59We've had our records checked.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Apparently someone at the adoption agency has reported
0:19:02 > 0:19:05a suspicious-looking person hanging about.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09We'll check it out, see if he fits Andrei's description.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12But what are you going to do about finding Sofia?
0:19:12 > 0:19:16I'm pretty sure that if we find him, we'll find her too.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Whoa, whoa, whoa.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21I thought you said it was an emergency.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23There is. On the other side of this door.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- She likes doctors. - Good.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29I mean, she really likes doctors. She told me.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Have fun!
0:19:35 > 0:19:36What are friends for?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41It sounds like the same man.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43I've not seen him since.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46But some of the prospective parents said that he tried to talk to them.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Will you let me know if he comes back?
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Of course.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Who is he?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55We're not sure.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56But best not to approach him directly.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59One more thing...
0:19:59 > 0:20:02did he ever have a baby with him?
0:20:02 > 0:20:07A little girl, very pretty. About six months old?
0:20:07 > 0:20:08No.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- What are you doing out here? - You've lost me.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Come on, man, I've been laying all the groundwork.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22This is your perfect opportunity to put Cherry behind you once
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- and for all. - You're unbelievable!
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Thank you. Think of it as a gift between friends. In lieu of rent.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30- Franklyn! - Are you going to have a go or not? Cos if you aren't...
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Did it never occur to you that...? - What's going on?
0:20:34 > 0:20:38Jimmi here is looking a gold-plated gift horse in the mouth.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39A horse? Where?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42The girl! You know, the one you asked me to look after?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45- I've been working my magic...- Have you been trying it on with her?
0:20:45 > 0:20:47I've been setting her up with Jimmi.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53It was a charitable act for a friend in need.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Where's your humanity? Come on, Baz! - My name is Barry!
0:20:58 > 0:21:00I'm going to have to ask you for your badge.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- What? Because of that? - And your hat and your jumper, too.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05You know what?
0:21:05 > 0:21:09You're a small-minded, petty loser!
0:21:09 > 0:21:12And you can stick your poxy job!
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Andrei's so-called adoption agency is not registered in the UK
0:21:26 > 0:21:29or Kovenia. He lied.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32But it looks like the gang might be real.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- My guess is that Andrei is their front man.- No.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39- I don't believe it.- I'm sure he was very convincing.
0:21:39 > 0:21:44I'll have to contact the Serious Organised Crimes Agency,
0:21:44 > 0:21:46inform them that we might have a child-trafficking gang
0:21:46 > 0:21:48operating in Letherbridge.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51We'll circulate Andrei's description and Sofia's photo.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54And what about us?
0:21:54 > 0:21:56It depends on our investigations.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00As I said, attempting to buy a child is illegal.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04But I believe you had good intentions.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07You were the victim of a professional con artist.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10I doubt that the CPS will want to pursue charges.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- Thank you.- And...
0:22:14 > 0:22:17..I had a word with Jane Williams at the adoption agency.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21I think there may have been a bit of a misunderstanding.
0:22:21 > 0:22:22What do you mean?
0:22:22 > 0:22:26She asked me to tell you that it's not impossible for you to adopt.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31You might not get a baby, but that's true of every adopting parent.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34If you were prepared to take a slightly older child,
0:22:34 > 0:22:38she thinks you'd have every chance of being successful.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Don't give up.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- KNOCK ON DOOR - I'm sorry I had to duck out on you.
0:22:50 > 0:22:51No problem.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Are there really child traffickers in Letherbridge?
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Looks like it. I'm going to do some
0:22:56 > 0:22:58digging around, see what I can find.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59If there is a gang, we'll shut it down.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- And Sofia? - Don't worry. I'll find her.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04I can't believe they were so gullible.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Maybe they were, but all they want is a baby to love and care for.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09How sick do you have to be to take advantage of that?
0:23:11 > 0:23:13You OK?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Yeah. It's been a long day.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21- Bye, Valerie. See you tomorrow. - Wait!
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I need everyone to be punctual in the morning.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Transport leaves at 9am.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Valerie, can you contact all the staff?
0:23:28 > 0:23:31What? I thought we were going on a computer course.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36- No, that's all changed. - Team-building day. It's a surprise!
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- I'm so excited!- That's a point, did you contact the boiler man?
0:23:39 > 0:23:40No, he never called me back.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Sorry, I forgot to say, he phoned when you were on your lunch.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47He said he'll pop over at some point in the morning.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49In which case, Valerie, as you're the temp,
0:23:49 > 0:23:51you're going to have to stay here and man the fort.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Mandy, wear comfortable clothes. 9am!
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Bye, Valerie.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59But I wanted to go with you.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04- I haven't done anything! - No, not much you haven't!
0:24:04 > 0:24:05Franklyn, who are these people?
0:24:05 > 0:24:08I just told her, we have reached a point...
0:24:08 > 0:24:10You have ruined her life!
0:24:10 > 0:24:12We were perfectly happy until she started going out with you!
0:24:12 > 0:24:15- That's not true! She was always a bit...- Tell me what's going on.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18He's broken my daughter's heart, that's what's going on!
0:24:18 > 0:24:20You were the one... Oh!
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- Stop making excuses. - That really hurt.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Can you both calm down a bit?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Don't tell me to calm down! Who are you, anyway?
0:24:28 > 0:24:30This is my house!
0:24:30 > 0:24:33Jimmi, this is Gwyneth, Megan's mam. Megan's the girl I...
0:24:33 > 0:24:36The girl he said he loved. The girl he said he wanted to marry!
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Will you shut up! Franklyn, a word, please?
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Cheers, mate. Megan's mam can talk the legs off a giraffe.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52- I want you to get rid of them. Now. - No problem. But maybe it would be better if you...
0:24:52 > 0:24:56- Then I want you to pack up your things and leave.- I thought that was just, you know, heat of the moment?
0:24:56 > 0:25:00- You're not seriously chucking me out? You can't!- I can and I am.
0:25:00 > 0:25:01I've got enough going on without all of this stuff.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05- What stuff? - All this! Today! Everything!
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Aren't you being a bit ungrateful?
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Who was there to pick up the pieces of your broken heart?
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Who helped you through your Jimmi blues?
0:25:12 > 0:25:16And I really appreciated it. I do. But it's time to move on. I mean it.
0:25:16 > 0:25:17I'm going to go upstairs and change,
0:25:17 > 0:25:19and then go for a run. By the time I get back, I want you gone.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07We're team-building, military style.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Are you ready to be pushed to the limit?- Sir, yes, sir.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Come on, keep it up, keep it up!
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Today is about surviving together in the wilderness.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17You'll have to find your own food.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18Have you got a first aid kit?
0:26:18 > 0:26:21You don't get first aid kits in the jungle.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23We're 20 minutes from the M6. It's hardly the Congo.
