0:00:27 > 0:00:30Mr Harrison is early. Is she ready yet?

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Well, I was up at five laying her out.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35Which you'd know if you'd been awake...

0:00:35 > 0:00:37Do we have to do this now?

0:00:37 > 0:00:40It's fine. Let him see her.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48Mr Harrison, she's ready for you.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58We're so sorry for your loss.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02No!

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Two for the price of one?

0:01:26 > 0:01:30That looks like a really tasty box of leaves that you've got there.

0:01:30 > 0:01:35Yeah. Karen's got me eating no sugar along with the rest of you.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Well, not me. I can eat what I like.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40The sugar ban has made everyone about as much fun as a prostate check, so...

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Get Mrs Tembe to knock it on the head, will you?

0:01:42 > 0:01:44I can't - she won't listen to me.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Not that it makes any difference cos I know Karen's cheating!

0:01:46 > 0:01:50- What makes you think that? - One minute she's off her head,

0:01:50 > 0:01:52and the next minute she's all sweetness and light.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55I haven't been a copper this long without knowing when someone

0:01:55 > 0:01:57is lying to me, especially my wife.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Excuse me, Sergeant Hollins?

0:02:00 > 0:02:02Yes, that is me.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04PC Tyler Green. It's my first day.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06They said I'm assigned to you.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10When you say "they", I presume that means the Inspector so there's

0:02:10 > 0:02:14no point me saying I would rather eat my own feet than wet-nurse anybody today...

0:02:14 > 0:02:15Suppose not.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Jimmi Clay. FME.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Nice to meet you, Doctor.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23Just feed him chocolate at regular intervals and you'll be fine.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25He's a funny man. He's a very funny man.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28Sit down.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Jimmi works with my wife at the Mill Health Centre.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33She's got me on this ridiculous sugar ban,

0:02:33 > 0:02:34not that you need to know that.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I tried that for a couple of weeks. I felt great.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Did you? Well, I don't.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43- RADIO:- 'Report of suspected theft at Aspland's Funeral Services.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45'Anyone free to attend?'

0:02:45 > 0:02:46Message received.

0:02:46 > 0:02:51Please show that Sergeant Hollins and PC Green are attending and en route, thank you.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53I think I'll let you drive.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55I'm assuming you know your way around Letherbridge?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57I'll find it, Sarge. No worries.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Have you got any chocolate?

0:03:03 > 0:03:04I don't believe it. You're cracking?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Oh, I cracked last night!

0:03:06 > 0:03:12Rob was doing my head in! I had to have something to calm my nerves. What have you got?

0:03:13 > 0:03:16I might be able to help you with that.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18What sort of thing is it you're looking for?

0:03:18 > 0:03:20What lasts the longest?

0:03:20 > 0:03:21Chewy caramel.

0:03:23 > 0:03:24Curly Wurly?

0:03:29 > 0:03:33So this stays between the two of us, right?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35I can keep a secret.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Name and date of death. I see nothing offensive.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Well, unless you're one of the relatives of one of those people.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44It is situated completely out of view of the patients.

0:03:44 > 0:03:48That doesn't make it any easier for people to deal with.

0:03:48 > 0:03:52I'll say. I can't concentrate, I'm moody, I'm irritable...

0:03:53 > 0:03:56Not talking about the sugar ban, are we?

0:03:56 > 0:03:57For once, we're not, no.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59What are we talking about?

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Mrs Tembe's latest idea.

0:04:01 > 0:04:06It is a record of recent patient deaths to keep all staff members

0:04:06 > 0:04:09informed and mindful of the feelings of their relatives.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12- That's macabre.- Yes, it is. I think you should take it down.

0:04:12 > 0:04:13That is just one opinion.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15It's ghoulish.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16- I like it.- Of course you do.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18No, seriously, I think it's a good idea.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19We should keep it.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21I wish you'd consulted me.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25With the deepest of respect, I do not have to on every little thing.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30But I am going to consult the other members of staff.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32If this is satisfactory?

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Fine. But I don't like it.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Your views have been noted, Dr Granger.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40We're used to extreme reactions, but...

0:04:40 > 0:04:48Once he came to, he insisted the diamond necklace his wife wanted buried with her was a fake.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49Can I see it?

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Of course.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Ah. Very nice.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59Isn't it?

0:04:59 > 0:05:01We have a safe in the office where we keep client jewellery

0:05:01 > 0:05:04and I can assure you it's never been tampered with.

0:05:04 > 0:05:05And is it a fake?

0:05:05 > 0:05:09Well, he swears it's missing an engraving from the back.

0:05:09 > 0:05:14On closer examination, maybe the diamonds do look like glass.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17I haven't seen too many gems in my life, Sergeant.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19My husband's a notorious tightwad.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Maureen, please!

0:05:21 > 0:05:25Has the necklace been taken off the premises since Mr Harrison gave it to you?

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Not to my knowledge, no.

0:05:27 > 0:05:28It was cleaned, though.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30Cleaned?

0:05:30 > 0:05:34We occasionally engage a local jeweller to clean some items.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37To be honest, we've been so busy this week that I wouldn't know if it...

0:05:37 > 0:05:41Oh, it was. I checked before you arrived.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43It's Wilson's Jewellers in the high street.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47I'm certain Miss Wilson is entirely reputable and above board.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'm sure she is, but it's still worth checking that out.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52We are so grateful for your help.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Would you like a cup of tea?

0:05:55 > 0:05:58No, thank you. I think we'd better follow this up.

0:05:58 > 0:06:03I'm going to take the necklace with me and I will get back to you

0:06:03 > 0:06:06as soon as I've got any more information.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09We're keen for this not to get out. Bad for business.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Of course - you can rely on our discretion.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14We know we can.

0:06:15 > 0:06:16It's outdated.

0:06:16 > 0:06:21I always put it in the weekly bulletin when a patient of mine shuffles off this mortal coil.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Yes, but nobody reads them, so, it's probably worth a try.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Thank you, Dr Carter.

0:06:26 > 0:06:31There have been a number of unfortunate misunderstandings

0:06:31 > 0:06:34recently involving the loved ones of deceased patients.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38This board will help us to avoid that issue in the future.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41I have e-mailed the other doctors for their thoughts.

0:06:41 > 0:06:42Well, I hate it.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44Hate's a strong word.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47No, I mean it. It's weird and disturbing.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50"In the midst of life, we are in death."

0:06:50 > 0:06:53But not in the midst of a cup of tea.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55We had something similar at a previous surgery of mine

0:06:55 > 0:06:57and it was quite useful.

0:06:57 > 0:07:02Maybe we should add some extra information like cause of death, last doctor to see the patient?

0:07:02 > 0:07:04It might show up some interesting trends.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08Cue witch hunt for the doctor with the highest death rate!

0:07:08 > 0:07:09Not a helpful comment.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13I suggest that the board stays up for the rest of the day.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16You can discuss it amongst yourselves.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19The majority decides. I will leave the box in here.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Secret ballot.- Fine by me.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24You see, democracy rules.

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Thank you.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35What...what is it?

0:07:35 > 0:07:38We just want to ask you a few questions, Mrs Wilson.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40It's Miss, Miss Wilson.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Only I've just opened and I need to get some...

0:07:43 > 0:07:44We won't keep you.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48First of all, I'd like to show you this.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Have you seen that before?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Yes.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Now why would anyone think it was a fake?

0:08:04 > 0:08:05I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.

0:08:07 > 0:08:08Miss Wilson?

0:08:08 > 0:08:11I don't know what I was thinking.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13It was a moment of madness.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17I'm going to guess that you know where the real one is.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Right. Miss Wilson, I'm arresting you on suspicion of theft.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:08:27 > 0:08:30if you do not mention when questioned something you later rely on in court.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40I understand you're in favour.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44Oh, Mrs Tembe rather railroaded me into it,

0:08:44 > 0:08:47but now I come to think about it...

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Don't you see it as being a bit of an anathema to everything we try and do?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- We're trying to keep people alive here.- I know.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55It's sad about Mr Tovey.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57Yes.

0:08:58 > 0:09:03Maybe if we'd had the board I wouldn't have asked his widow how he was.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06I wonder how long we'll be remembered when we die.

0:09:06 > 0:09:0920 years? 30 years?

0:09:09 > 0:09:12If Joe or Izzie have kids and they get to know me,

0:09:12 > 0:09:16- best will in the world, 50, maybe 60 years?- Hm.

0:09:21 > 0:09:26For the tape, Miss Wilson, you have declined a solicitor.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28I don't feel it's necessary.

0:09:28 > 0:09:33OK. Earlier on you said that this was a moment of madness.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Does that mean that you've never done anything like this before?

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Never. Absolutely not. No.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41What made you decide to do this now?

0:09:42 > 0:09:48It was just... times are tight, business is slow...

0:09:48 > 0:09:51I thought no-one would notice.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54I mean, the necklace was just going to sit in the grave of that woman.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58It seemed like such a waste. No-one spotted it before.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Before?

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Before today, I mean.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07Have you had dealings with the Asplands before today?

0:10:07 > 0:10:09Dealings?

0:10:09 > 0:10:13Have you cleaned anything for them before this "moment of madness"?

0:10:13 > 0:10:14I...don't think so, no.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17You don't think so?

0:10:17 > 0:10:19No, I mean, I'm sure I'd remember.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23I think we're going to hold on to you for a while longer,

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Miss Wilson, until we make further inquiries.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27Interview suspended at 11.07.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30I'm going to find a custody sergeant,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33so we can get you booked in again.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Won't be a second.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Thanks.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48OK. Do you want to talk me through that last question again?

0:10:48 > 0:10:52You mentioned Mr Aspland said they'd used her occasionally.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55She doesn't remember working for them before.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56Two different stories.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59So you're saying that she's done it before?

0:10:59 > 0:11:00No, it's just a bit weird.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04Yeah, but weird doesn't get us a conviction. Only evidence does that.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08She's confessed. It's a first-time offence.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11She's got no interesting deposits in her business account.

0:11:11 > 0:11:14And we've retrieved the stolen item. You could say that's a closed case.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Yeah, but...

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Ah! First rule of policing. Occam's Razor.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21What's that?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24If it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck...

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Yeah, I get that, but still,

0:11:26 > 0:11:28she was a bit fast with this "moment of madness" line.

0:11:28 > 0:11:30Maybe because she's telling the truth.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Or maybe she had that answer prepared.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35Come on, sunshine, spit it out. What are you driving at?

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Something doesn't add up.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41She's got these shiny new teeth, loads of make-up, fancy clothes.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45Don't you think someone like that should have a bit more personality?

0:11:45 > 0:11:47I'll ignore that casual sexism,

0:11:47 > 0:11:49but what bit of that constitutes a crime?

0:11:49 > 0:11:50Nothing.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Come on, then, what further lines of inquiry do you suggest?

0:11:53 > 0:11:56We haven't conducted a search of her home address.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Ah. Right, now we're talking. Let's go.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01And on the way we'll call off at the bakers.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03You think they know something?

0:12:05 > 0:12:06No. I want that sausage roll.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14You know, I wonder, what is death like?

0:12:14 > 0:12:19- Is it like a black rim where someone has just turned the lights off?- Hm.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22I haven't thought about death at all, not since I got the all clear.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25But now thanks to this board, I can't stop.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27What will it be like? How will it feel?

0:12:27 > 0:12:30- Will it hurt? Will I even know it's happening?- Any conclusions?

0:12:30 > 0:12:32Hm. Life is for living.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'll drink to that.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46- Personal bank statements. Last two years.- Hm.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52Her property was a mess, wasn't it? She needed her pointing doing.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Her roof. The woodwork.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57Look at this.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Cash deposits. Regular and pretty large.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03See, this proves when she said times were tough, she was lying.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06She certainly wasn't spending it on her house.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Where's she spending it, then?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Come here. Let me have a look. Yeah.

0:13:13 > 0:13:18Similar amounts of money are going out not long after they've been deposited.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21So, the money is going through the account but it's going somewhere else.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25Or to someone else. We need to talk to her again.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30All right, Columbo, maybe you've got a point. I'll tell you what.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34If you can get us back to the station in less than half an hour, I'll let you lead.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36I am trying.

0:13:36 > 0:13:37Yeah, I know that!

0:13:40 > 0:13:44- Hey. I thought you were at the police station today.- Yeah.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48Was going to do my reports at home but my neighbours have got builders in and I couldn't concentrate.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51What do you make of that?

0:13:52 > 0:13:54I don't see a problem with it.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56So amenable.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59That's what comes when you eat as much sugar as you like.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Imagine us up there.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05They will be one day.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Just an eternity of blackness.

0:14:08 > 0:14:13- Cheery.- I'm a realist, mate. When your time is up, it's up.

0:14:13 > 0:14:16This glorious existence is all there is.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Have you been running the business long?

0:14:18 > 0:14:20About ten years.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22On your own?

0:14:22 > 0:14:23That's right.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Must be hard. Times being tight and everything.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28It can be, yes.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34To tell you the truth, I'm not interested in jewellery.

0:14:34 > 0:14:38I know that sounds stupid after what I'm here for.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42I was left the business when my dad died, and...

0:14:42 > 0:14:44I sort of felt like I had no choice.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49I don't really have anything else...

0:14:51 > 0:14:54..no friends, no life...

0:14:54 > 0:14:56No boyfriend?

0:14:56 > 0:14:58No. No-one. No.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01Why did you steal from the Asplands now?

0:15:01 > 0:15:06I don't know. The necklace was obviously valuable...

0:15:06 > 0:15:09So they gave you business before but you didn't steal from them?

0:15:09 > 0:15:10I've already said.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12This was a moment of madness, a one-off thing.

0:15:14 > 0:15:19I'm now showing Miss Wilson copies of her bank statements.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23Can you see where the deposits have been highlighted?

0:15:23 > 0:15:25Miss Wilson has nodded her head.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28And can you see where the withdrawals are highlighted?

0:15:28 > 0:15:32- Yes.- Can you explain these substantial amounts of money going in

0:15:32 > 0:15:34and out of your account for the last two years?

0:15:34 > 0:15:38I... It's from a will. My aunt.

0:15:38 > 0:15:39She left me some money.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41- In cash?- Yes.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44And what happens to the money when you withdraw it?

0:15:44 > 0:15:48I'm... I've been doing work on my house.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52Renovations, damp-proofing, you know. Workmen always want cash.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56Really? We've been to your house, Miss Wilson.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59It hasn't had any work done to it, has it?

0:15:59 > 0:16:01No, I meant I'm about to start.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05I've been buying clothes. Lots of clothes.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- That's not a crime, is it? - Absolutely not, no.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Who contacted you about Mr Harrison's necklace?

0:16:09 > 0:16:11- I don't remember. - Was it Mrs Aspland?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14- I don't... - Or was it Mr Aspland? Geoff?

0:16:14 > 0:16:15I honestly don't remember.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I really don't.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18You clearly don't believe me!

0:16:18 > 0:16:22Is there any reason why we shouldn't believe you, Deborah?

0:16:25 > 0:16:29I don't think I should say anything else until I have a solicitor.

0:16:29 > 0:16:34Absolutely. We'll get the custody sergeant to arrange that for you.

0:16:34 > 0:16:37Interview terminated at 14.28.

0:16:49 > 0:16:50Where to now, Sarge?

0:16:50 > 0:16:53I think you can work that one out.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05I'm voting to keep it, just so you know.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07I thought it was supposed to be a secret ballot.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11It's hardly the general election, is it? What do you think?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Oh, I don't know, I can't decide how I feel about it.

0:17:15 > 0:17:16Isn't it a bit morbid?

0:17:16 > 0:17:20I don't think so. It's already been useful to me today.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Mrs Abrahamson. One of yours?

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Yeah. Very sad. Breast cancer.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28Her best friend came in, in distress.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Panic attacks, night terrors, the works.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Thanks to this, I was across it in a flash.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35It's strange, isn't it?

0:17:35 > 0:17:37People are living longer than they ever have,

0:17:37 > 0:17:40to the point where it's almost seen as a failure if they die

0:17:40 > 0:17:42even if they're in their 90s.

0:17:43 > 0:17:48"I don't understand, Doctor, he had so much to live for..."

0:17:51 > 0:17:52Sorry...

0:17:52 > 0:17:56It's fine. I'd rather laugh than listen to the platitudes.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57"He's in a better place."

0:17:57 > 0:17:59"At least he didn't suffer."

0:17:59 > 0:18:01"Only the good die young."

0:18:03 > 0:18:05It's strange, as it's something that we're all going to have to face

0:18:05 > 0:18:08and yet we find it so difficult to talk about.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12After Howard, people couldn't even say that he'd died.

0:18:12 > 0:18:15They'd say, "Oh, he's passed away," or, "moved on".

0:18:17 > 0:18:21Marilyn Monroe gave her favourite make-up artist

0:18:21 > 0:18:26a money clip engraved with the words: "While I'm still warm..."

0:18:26 > 0:18:29When she died she had an open casket and he did the corpse.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34I'm so glad that I got to say a proper goodbye to Howard.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37Is that odd?

0:18:37 > 0:18:39No. It's healthy.

0:18:40 > 0:18:44And it sounds like you've decided how you feel about it after all.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51I'm sorry not to be more help.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54As I say, I normally know about everything that goes through the accounts.

0:18:54 > 0:18:59- You've no idea why the transactions with the Wilsons haven't? - No. You'll have to ask Geoff.

0:18:59 > 0:19:00You sure you won't wait for him?

0:19:00 > 0:19:03No, that's OK. Just tell him we want a word.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04Oh, here he is now!

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Sergeant Hollins. Is there a problem?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18The police wanted to know how much we'd used Wilson's before, Geoff,

0:19:18 > 0:19:22so I showed them the accounts. That's all right, isn't it?

0:19:22 > 0:19:23Of course it is. Why shouldn't it be?

0:19:23 > 0:19:27Mrs Aspland seemed to think you'd used Miss Wilson quite a lot.

0:19:27 > 0:19:28There's no record of it.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31It's such small amounts, I paid her in cash mainly.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33At least you paid her.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Nice car.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Thanks.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40I can't remember whether you bought that from the company account or...

0:19:40 > 0:19:42You know I didn't, darling.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44I got it with money from my savings.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46What savings, darling?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48You know. My savings...

0:19:48 > 0:19:49darling.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53So, I take it you've solved the case, then?

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Yes, I think so.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58Miss Wilson has given us a full confession.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Do you know Miss Wilson well, Mr Aspland?

0:20:00 > 0:20:01Hardly.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04Only when we do the occasional bit of business, you know.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Oh, come on, Geoff, love, don't lie to the police.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10It's more than occasional.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Isn't it time you told them the truth about your girlfriend,

0:20:13 > 0:20:14the jeweller?

0:20:16 > 0:20:19Geoffrey Aspland, I'm arresting you on suspicion of theft.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence

0:20:21 > 0:20:23if you do not mention when questioned something you later rely on in court.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Anything you do say may be used in evidence.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28This is preposterous. Tell them, Maureen.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Oh, I intend to.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33I think we'll have a little chat down the station, don't you?

0:20:35 > 0:20:38I suspected he's been playing away for years.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41A wife knows when her husband is lying.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44But you didn't know about the jewellery scam?

0:20:44 > 0:20:48Absolutely not. He claimed he'd been winning on the horses.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52Would it surprise you to learn that we have evidence that Miss Wilson

0:20:52 > 0:20:57replaced your clients' jewellery on some 23 occasions?

0:20:57 > 0:21:01Yes, it would! Cheeky mare!

0:21:03 > 0:21:07I knew he was putting business her way, but I never thought...

0:21:07 > 0:21:13Can I ask, if, as you say, you knew nothing, what happened today?

0:21:14 > 0:21:16You tell me.

0:21:16 > 0:21:21All I did was dress the body, as I always do, following the wishes of the bereaved.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24He said he wanted the jewellery prominently displayed,

0:21:24 > 0:21:27so that's what I gave him.

0:21:27 > 0:21:31Well, how was I supposed to know he'd spot it instantly?

0:21:32 > 0:21:37The one I feel sorry for in all this is Deborah.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41Poor woman, getting sucked into his schemes.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51It was me. All me.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53It was my idea all along.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55It had nothing to do with Geoff.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57Why give him the money?

0:21:58 > 0:22:00He loves me.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08These are details of your phone records for the last two years.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12You contacted Mr Aspland 5,622 times.

0:22:12 > 0:22:13Have I?

0:22:15 > 0:22:20Oh, yes. PC Green has counted them all.

0:22:20 > 0:22:25And in that time, he's contacted you...38 times.

0:22:28 > 0:22:29He's a busy man.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32Your house is about to be condemned.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Your business is about to go under.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41He paid for my new teeth. He buys me clothes.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Deborah, whose idea was it really?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48To replace the jewellery with fakes?

0:22:51 > 0:22:52He's been so good to me.

0:22:56 > 0:23:01He makes me feel special, wanted.

0:23:05 > 0:23:11It was my idea, Officer. Geoff's an innocent man.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16The woman is an idiot.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18She'd never have come up with an idea that brilliant.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20It was all me.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22Let's face it, I was doing her a favour, wasn't I?

0:23:22 > 0:23:26I mean, she looks all right now, but you should have seen her when we first met.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29If it wasn't for me, she'd still look like that.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31I was doing her a favour.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33I was doing them all a favour.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Chucking jewellery in graves to rot!

0:23:36 > 0:23:40If those idiots really loved their family members, they'd have worn it, wouldn't they?

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Or sold it and had a good time with the money?

0:23:42 > 0:23:47I've had a lifetime of dealing with miserable people and smelly dead bodies.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50If I want to have a little fun, well, sue me...

0:23:51 > 0:23:53We won't do that, Mr Aspland,

0:23:53 > 0:23:55but we will be charging you.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Do not forget to cast your vote.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Ah, yes. The secret ballot was a masterstroke, Mrs Tembe.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Remind me never to play you at chess.

0:24:08 > 0:24:12I've decided that you are going to die from an excess of charisma.

0:24:12 > 0:24:16Thank you. And you will die from the bluntness of your own wit.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19No way. Zara will die falling off her heels.

0:24:19 > 0:24:20And you, Haskey,

0:24:20 > 0:24:23will cop it when one of your own inventions blows up in your face.

0:24:23 > 0:24:24What about me?

0:24:24 > 0:24:26- Old age.- Heart attack.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Bizarre gardening accident.

0:24:28 > 0:24:29Talking yourself to death.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30Pot, kettle!

0:24:30 > 0:24:33I am not sure I like this game.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38You're both being charged with 23 counts of theft.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Your bail will be set later today.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43Geoff, I love you.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Oh, leave me alone, you stupid woman.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48There's no need for that.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Oh! There they are. Bonnie and Clyde.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Mrs Aspland, you're here to identify evidence.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55You shouldn't be talking to him.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56He's still my husband.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59Darling, I need money for a solicitor.

0:24:59 > 0:25:01You can whistle for it, mate.

0:25:01 > 0:25:02Nice!

0:25:02 > 0:25:06Oh, and I thought you might like to know I've been seeing someone, too.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09The groundsman from the cemetery.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11He's half your age!

0:25:11 > 0:25:12I know. It's fabulous!

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Geoff, I'll be waiting when you get out!

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Don't bother.

0:25:19 > 0:25:20Well?

0:25:20 > 0:25:22Don't keep us in suspenders!

0:25:22 > 0:25:24I am just making sure.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26RINGING

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Oh! It's the fostering service.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32The board stays.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36You know, I think you might die quite young,

0:25:36 > 0:25:38at the hands of a disgruntled employee.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Peace offering.

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Thanks.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46Oh, you still here?

0:25:46 > 0:25:49Paperwork. How are things at the fun house?

0:25:49 > 0:25:51Everyone's talking about death. Don't ask.

0:25:51 > 0:25:52Really? Us too.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Whatever possessed you to move here, Tyler?

0:25:54 > 0:25:58Broke up with my girlfriend. The town wasn't big enough for the two of us so I changed forces.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00- So, you're young, free and single, then.- Guess so.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Good-looking lad like you -

0:26:02 > 0:26:03I'm sure you won't be single for long.

0:26:03 > 0:26:07- That's the nicest thing you've said to me all day.- Don't get used to it. Pass me that chocolate bar.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09What about the sugar ban?

0:26:09 > 0:26:12As your superior officer, that is an order - give.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18RINGING

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Unbelievable! How does she know?

0:26:21 > 0:26:22Hiya, love.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25Listen, we sometimes go to the Icon after work. You should join us sometime.

0:26:25 > 0:26:26Thanks. I will.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32He's a good bit older than Hannah.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35Had a fair few run-ins with the law.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38- Would I know him?- No. He's got no connections with Letherbridge.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41If you'd have arrested him they'd never have given him to us.

0:26:43 > 0:26:48It's... I don't know whether I want an actual criminal in the house.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Come on, love. This is why we got involved in the first place, isn't it, to help kids?

0:26:52 > 0:26:56- Yeah...- Lads like him will need our help more than most.

0:26:56 > 0:26:59If we can be a positive influence on his life,

0:26:59 > 0:27:02help him become honest, then that's got to be a good thing, hasn't it?

0:27:02 > 0:27:05- If you're sure.- Absolutely.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07OK, well, I'll tell them yes.

0:27:09 > 0:27:10Are you chewing?

0:27:15 > 0:27:17No. Are you?

0:27:17 > 0:27:19No...

0:27:25 > 0:27:29Hi! Barney! Come in.

0:27:29 > 0:27:34I can get you what you want. Peruvian, Colombian.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36I look forward to seeing you at church.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38We are going to make a big fuss of her.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40It's this death wall thing.

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Don't let Mrs Tembe hear you calling it that.
