0:01:10 > 0:01:12Meg.
0:01:12 > 0:01:13Meg.
0:01:20 > 0:01:21Sir.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Your phone was off.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27Are you OK, sir?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21INDISTINCT POLICE RADIO CHATTER
0:03:01 > 0:03:04We've interviewed the two divers who discovered the body, sir.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08They're amateurs. They were just out for a bit of fun apparently.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13According to the doctor, the body's been down there weeks...months.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15- ID?- Young male, naked apart from his underwear.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19The divers.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21They broke in just before dawn.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28They found the body ten metres down. It was tied to something.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- One of them caught it with his flipper and it broke away.- Sir.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Find out what was holding him down. - And search the whole area.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38We're looking for anything that can give us a name.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Who owns this place?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Tommy James, local businessman.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Runs a haulage company up in Penwyllt.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Penwyllt?- I'll take you there.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28Mr James?
0:04:30 > 0:04:33DI Rhys. DCI Mathias.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35We'd like to talk to you.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- When did the quarry close? - 20 years ago.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- What did it produce?- Stone.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- Why did it shut? - It was worked-out.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51And when were you last there?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Don't remember. Ages ago. Why?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Two men broke in there earlier today.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58They found a body.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Any idea who it might be?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02No idea, sorry.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06You said that the quarry hadn't been worked for 20 years
0:05:06 > 0:05:08so it couldn't have been someone who was working there.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11There was no security guard? Or caretaker?
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Why should I pay someone to guard a worked-out quarry? Fencing's cheaper.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22I've got a licence for that.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- Do you still keep records of your employees?- Somewhere.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29I'd like to see them.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Me and the boys, we drive up the mountain in this,
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- wait in the dark for a bit, then turn on the lights.- And?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Shoot anything that moves.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Only rabbits.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10You know these people?
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Grew up around them helping Dad with his rounds.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Hello. Is your mammy in?
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Mammy!
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Mammy!
0:06:30 > 0:06:32They shouldn't have been in there.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36Doesn't matter how many signs you put up, people think they can go wherever they like.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39And we'll need those back, please.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42What did he look like?
0:06:42 > 0:06:44The dead body?
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Defi isn't like other children.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01He sees the world in a different way.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04We're trying to keep the worst of life away from him for now.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06It'll get to him soon enough.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09Do you have any idea who the dead man might be?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- MOBILE PHONE RINGS - Excuse me.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14DI Rhys.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30I like your drawings, Defi.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32You ever seen an owl?
0:07:32 > 0:07:37The pathologists estimates death between two and three months ago.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Which would make it late January...
0:07:40 > 0:07:42..February.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Twit-twoo.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Twit-twoo.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- I've been expecting you.- Have you?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17What about?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19The body in the quarry.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22- How do you know about that, Mr..? - Morgan. Gwilym.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Small place, news travels fast.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29He'd been in the water for two to three months.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31- Someone from these parts? - You tell me.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36- Well, I'd say no.- Why's that? - Because I would have heard.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Do you have any idea who the dead man could be?
0:08:39 > 0:08:41No.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02We must establish who this man was as soon as possible.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05We don't have a name yet but we're hoping with your help
0:09:05 > 0:09:07we can find out who it is.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11Anything you say will, of course, be treated with the utmost confidence.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14But if you have any information, any ideas,
0:09:14 > 0:09:16anything at all that might help,
0:09:16 > 0:09:19please let us know.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Any human contact traces soaked off weeks ago.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- And this was holding him down? - Yes, sir.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Just tied to him with blue, plastic rope.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Standard, 16 mill, three strand polypropylene.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14A sample of his DNA has gone off for matching.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18We're also checking dental records, missing persons, hospitals, homeless charities.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22No name, no age. How did he get into the water and why?
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- Suicide?- It's a possibility.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- Any sign of his clothing?- No.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Why keep his pants on?
0:10:30 > 0:10:31Dignity.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34So he makes his way to the quarry naked,
0:10:34 > 0:10:37apart from his underpants and he's what? Carrying this tyre?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Too heavy.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Rolling it along in front of him?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45This was no suicide.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49This man was stripped naked, near as dammit, and thrown into the quarry
0:10:49 > 0:10:52tied to a tractor tyre to make sure that he stayed there.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- Murder?- Yes, Lloyd!
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Murder.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Come on, Mared, we're going back to the quarry.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Sir...
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Just spoken to pathology.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Dental examination put the victim in his early 20s.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Bruising to the face and marks on the body
0:11:32 > 0:11:35suggests he was beaten and his finger nails were worn away.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- He was trapped in a confined space. - Cause of death confirmed as drowning.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42- But they tested the water in his lungs against the water of the quarry.- And?
0:11:42 > 0:11:43It doesn't match.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47He drowned somewhere else.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57The pathology report says the water in his lungs
0:11:57 > 0:12:01- shows high levels of peat and animal waste.- Animal?
0:12:01 > 0:12:02What sort of animal?
0:12:02 > 0:12:06The water the victim drowned in contained significant quantities
0:12:06 > 0:12:08of sheep's urine and faeces.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Well, there's plenty of that up here.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23I thought you ran the pub?
0:12:23 > 0:12:25I do. I also do this.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Some of the fencing at the quarry looks new.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31- Who did the work?- Me.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36- When was that? - A month ago thereabouts.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37A disused quarry? Why?
0:12:39 > 0:12:43Disused but still dangerous. Tommy knows his responsibilities.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47You two are close friends.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50I saw some photos in his office.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53We grew up together.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58We still don't have a name for the dead man. Any ideas?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00No.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05It's good of Mr James to give you the job at the quarry.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08It's what friends do, isn't it?
0:13:32 > 0:13:34CAR HORN
0:13:54 > 0:13:57My husband's not in, if that's who you're after?
0:13:57 > 0:14:01I've already spoken to him. Second job, is it? Fencing?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Yes. And just as well.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Business bad, then?
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Quiet in the week, bit better at weekends.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Lots of postcards.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- Help cheer the place up. - Who are they from?
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Customers and some of the people we get stopping here.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Got a room upstairs. Do B&B.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Get all sorts here. Loggers, shearers.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Some of them stay in touch.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Can you give me any names?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Do you think one of them might be him in the quarry?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32It's possible.
0:14:32 > 0:14:33Names?
0:14:35 > 0:14:36I'll do my best.
0:14:40 > 0:14:41You lost?
0:14:45 > 0:14:46No, not lost, just...
0:14:47 > 0:14:51I'm just trying to work out how a drowned man's lungs got to be
0:14:51 > 0:14:54full of water containing sheep shit and piss.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56He could have fallen into a sump.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59You wouldn't want to fall into one of them.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- What about the pens? - That's where we sort the sheep out.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Can't see how your man would end up drowning in there, mind.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Thanks.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03This one's Dean Hudson. Shearer.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Worked here for the last three seasons.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Any address?
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- Lives in New Zealand. Sorry. - What about this one?

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Then he goes home, packs a few things and leaves.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11- Any problems at the school? - No, the headmistress couldn't speak highly enough of him.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14She said the kids loved him, too. He was a natural.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15So why did he walk?
0:22:17 > 0:22:19His parents were killed in a car crash a few months before.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24The head thinks he'd bottled up his grief to the point where he simply couldn't take any more.
0:22:24 > 0:22:25He left these things at the school.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46It's a St Christopher, sir.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58Did he live with you?
0:24:58 > 0:24:59No.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02He lived with Dic and Lowri at the pub.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05When did you last see him?
0:25:05 > 0:25:07When he drove off. End of February.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12There's a lot of Dic and Tommy. None of you.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Well, I took 'em, didn't I?
0:25:17 > 0:25:20I saw you yesterday by the forest. Where were you going?

0:25:48 > 0:25:51- How did he get on with everyone? - Really well.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53He didn't get into any arguments?

0:27:23 > 0:27:26Defi always came back full of the things they'd seen.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28That's very trusting of you.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Do you think so?
0:27:42 > 0:27:44Terrible news about Michael.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Please don't mention it to Defi.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50We'll find our own way of breaking it to him.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12Mrs James go lamping too?
0:28:14 > 0:28:15Just the boys.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17You, Dic and Gwilym?
0:28:17 > 0:28:18That's right.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28Did he leave anything?
0:28:28 > 0:28:31- Any clothes, any personal items of any sort?- No.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34No. Nothing.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40You all right?
0:28:42 > 0:28:44I just can't believe it.
0:28:44 > 0:28:45Sorry...
0:28:49 > 0:28:50Lowri...?
0:29:02 > 0:29:04Michael.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55- MOBILE PHONE RINGS - Lloyd?
0:29:55 > 0:29:57We ran a check on Wyn Bratton.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00His ex-wife moved herself and their two kids in with the new lover.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Bratton set light to his house.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04- And?- They got out OK.
0:30:04 > 0:30:09Bratton got three years. That was 2005.
0:30:14 > 0:30:15Defi.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20Where would you go if you want to see an owl?
0:30:22 > 0:30:23Mr Owl knows.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Mr Owl?
0:30:25 > 0:30:27He's Michael's friend.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31- He lives in the forest.- Defi!
0:32:14 > 0:32:16DOOR OPENS
0:32:28 > 0:32:31I came to see if Wyn had heard the news about Michael.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35I thought you said you didn't know him.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- I was shocked. - So you were friends?
0:32:44 > 0:32:47- Sort of. He came here sometimes. - With Defi James?
0:32:49 > 0:32:51That's his drawing, isn't it?
0:32:54 > 0:32:58I showed him a barn owl one night. Next time, he gave me that.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00Michael brought him here a few times.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04When was the last time you saw him?
0:33:06 > 0:33:08- The week before he left. - Did he tell you he was leaving?
0:33:08 > 0:33:10No.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Didn't you think that that was odd?
0:33:14 > 0:33:16That's what people do, isn't it?
0:33:33 > 0:33:35What are their names?
0:33:37 > 0:33:38It doesn't matter.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48He and Michael had a lot in common.
0:33:48 > 0:33:52Michael had just lost his mam and dad and Wyn, well...
0:33:53 > 0:33:57The two boys in the photo, he's not allowed to see them any more.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03Michael started bringing Defi up here and he was really happy.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06- Then Tommy put a stop to that.- Why?
0:34:08 > 0:34:11Cos he's an oddball who lives in a caravan on his own, I suppose.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14- No other reason? - Not that I know of.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17Wyn's an outsider and what Tommy says goes around here.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Anyway, Wyn went into his shell after that.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24- He won't talk to anyone about it. - Not even to you?
0:34:24 > 0:34:26No, not even to me.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31- Would you drop me off outside the village?- Why?
0:34:31 > 0:34:34- Well... - You'd rather not be seen with me.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37No worries.
0:35:19 > 0:35:232003, Bratton and his wife divorce.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25She claims he'd beaten her several times over the years.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28She's granted sole custody of their boys,
0:35:28 > 0:35:31aged four and six at the time, and moves away.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Bratton gets monthly visiting rights
0:35:33 > 0:35:36but the boys don't want anything to do with him.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38He accuses her of turning them against him.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40There's a fight with the new boyfriend
0:35:40 > 0:35:42and a day later, he torches the house.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45A neighbour sees flames, alerts the wife.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47She and the boys get out without injury.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50Bratton claims in court that he thought the house was empty,
0:35:50 > 0:35:53that he loves his boys and would never do anything to harm them.
0:35:53 > 0:35:54What did he get?
0:35:54 > 0:35:58Three years and banned from going anywhere near her and the boys.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00I don't think he intended to kill anyone.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04And none of this makes him our killer.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11- Intuition, sir.- Is that reason enough not to bring him in?
0:36:11 > 0:36:14He's got no motive to kill Michael Reynolds, sir.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17Has no alibi either and a history of violence.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Now, those children were only four and...
0:36:22 > 0:36:24Six years old, sir! Yes, I know.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27And he's spent the last four years on his own in that forest
0:36:27 > 0:36:29regretting every minute of it.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32Living in a caravan.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56You all right?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Sorry to bother you. It's about Bratton.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16I'll catch you up.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32- I think he killed Michael. - For what reason?
0:38:32 > 0:38:33They knew each other...
0:38:33 > 0:38:38And I had the idea that maybe the missing camper van was up in the forest.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48That's where I was going yesterday. To look for it.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52But we didn't know it was Michael at that point.
0:38:52 > 0:38:57Yeah, but there was a body and Bratton's got a record.
0:38:59 > 0:39:03I saw him the night Michael went missing by the quarry.
0:39:03 > 0:39:07It was a terrible night, raining hard and I remember thinking,
0:39:07 > 0:39:09"What the hell is he doing out on a night like this?"
0:39:09 > 0:39:12- So why were you out there? - I was on my way to the pub.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14You remember, Tommy?
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Can't say off the top of my head, but then I can't remember
0:39:17 > 0:39:19when you weren't in the pub.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21Right.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24It has to be him because it's not one of us.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27Nobody in this village would do something like that.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31It's him.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34I'm right, aren't I?
0:39:37 > 0:39:40Offside front tyre's got a slit in it.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Slap a new one on for me, will you?
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Would you be surprised to know if I told you
0:39:53 > 0:39:56that one of Defi's drawings was in Bratton's caravan?
0:39:56 > 0:39:57No.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59But you put a stop to his visits?
0:40:01 > 0:40:03He's 12 years old and vulnerable.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05What would you do?
0:40:20 > 0:40:21Mrs James?
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Carry on.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49We weren't sure if he was talking about the birds or a person.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52But we soon realised he meant Bratton.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54And that was a problem for you?
0:40:54 > 0:40:57We were happy for Defi to spend time with Michael
0:40:57 > 0:40:59but not Bratton, not in that caravan.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Being Michael, he defended Bratton.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10He said Tommy was being unfair just because he didn't fit in.
0:41:10 > 0:41:14Did your husband ever feel that Michael was undermining his relationship with Defi?
0:41:14 > 0:41:15Not at all.
0:41:16 > 0:41:19Tommy was pleased Defi had a made a real friend. We both were.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Michael wasn't here very long, was he?
0:41:23 > 0:41:27- You placed a lot of trust in him. - You never met Michael.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29Either of you.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31You'd understand if you had.
0:41:35 > 0:41:38We're trying to establish what Michael did in the days
0:41:38 > 0:41:40leading up to his death, Mr James.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44We know he spent quite a lot of time with Defi.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47- I'd like to talk to him. - No, he's just a child.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Gwyneth, we can't keep him wrapped in cotton wool forever.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Where is he?
0:41:54 > 0:41:55In the garden.
0:42:00 > 0:42:01Defi?
0:42:03 > 0:42:04Defi!
0:42:07 > 0:42:08Defi!
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Defi!
0:42:15 > 0:42:16Defi!
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Defi! Where are you?
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Defi.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Defi!
0:42:31 > 0:42:33TOMMY: Defi!
0:42:36 > 0:42:37Defi!
0:42:45 > 0:42:47There'll be a team of officers here in half an hour.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49I can't wait that long.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53I've been all over the village.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58I'm telling you, it's Bratton.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01Hey, we don't know anything for sure yet.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Drink that.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06See if there's anything in those paintings that can give us a clue.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08- What's the point? - Will you just look at them?
0:43:32 > 0:43:34What is it, Tommy?
0:43:34 > 0:43:37- That could be Defi. - Who's the big one? Michael?
0:43:38 > 0:43:40No. It could be Bratton.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43The quarry. It's the one place we haven't looked.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Come on! Come on!
0:44:34 > 0:44:36Mammy!
0:45:47 > 0:45:49- LOUD BANGING - Gwil! Agor y drws!
0:46:17 > 0:46:19MOBILE PHONE RINGS
0:46:23 > 0:46:25Lloyd?
0:46:25 > 0:46:27Sir, it's Gwilym Morgan.
0:46:27 > 0:46:29Dic Rees has just found him dead in his garage.
0:47:42 > 0:47:44Thank you.
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Onset of rigor puts time of death between two and four this morning.
0:47:50 > 0:47:52His best friend's son goes missing
0:47:52 > 0:47:55and he was the only one who doesn't help look for him.
0:47:55 > 0:47:57Where did he go?
0:47:57 > 0:48:00The firearms register shows he has a licence
0:48:00 > 0:48:03for a 12 bore, double barrel shotgun.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06- Looks like it was his own gun. - It was loaded with game shot.
0:48:06 > 0:48:1024 hours ago, he stood here trying to convince me that Bratton killed Michael Reynolds.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Why this? Why now?
0:48:14 > 0:48:16- Maybe the guilt caught up with him.- Maybe.
0:48:18 > 0:48:19Straightforward suicide, then.
0:48:23 > 0:48:27- Tell ballistics to call me as soon as they've got a report.- Yes, sir.
0:50:40 > 0:50:43This is harassment.
0:50:44 > 0:50:47Gwilym Morgan died in the early hours of this morning.
0:50:47 > 0:50:49Shot himself by the looks of it.
0:50:51 > 0:50:53You don't seem very sorry.
0:50:55 > 0:50:57I hardly knew him.
0:51:00 > 0:51:03- When did you last see him? - I can't remember.
0:51:03 > 0:51:08Well, he said that he saw you at the quarry the night Michael died.
0:51:08 > 0:51:10- He was lying.- Where were you, then?
0:51:10 > 0:51:13- Here.- Can you prove that?
0:51:17 > 0:51:19You know I can't.
0:51:25 > 0:51:27I liked him. Why would I kill him?
0:51:27 > 0:51:29Why would Gwilym lie?
0:51:36 > 0:51:38He's always had it in for me.
0:51:38 > 0:51:41Him and his little gang - Tommy, Dic and him.
0:51:43 > 0:51:45Could Gwilym have killed Michael?
0:51:46 > 0:51:48Only he knows that.
0:51:51 > 0:51:53- Where were you last night? - Trying to sleep.
0:51:54 > 0:51:58- You have trouble sleeping? - Sometimes.
0:51:59 > 0:52:01I went for a spin. It helps.
0:52:03 > 0:52:05- How do you sleep? - Where do you get your water from?
0:52:07 > 0:52:09Cooking, washing.
0:52:10 > 0:52:12Where does it come from?
0:52:14 > 0:52:15I fill containers.
0:52:16 > 0:52:18From the pub?
0:52:19 > 0:52:22- Not any more. - Since Michael left?
0:52:23 > 0:52:27- About that time, yeah.- So what now? You just use the streams?
0:52:30 > 0:52:33Things live and die in streams, fill them with piss and decay, so, no.
0:52:35 > 0:52:36No, I use rain water.
0:52:38 > 0:52:41'You don't think it's odd that Gwilym didn't help look for Defi?
0:52:41 > 0:52:43He did, didn't he?
0:52:43 > 0:52:45Apparently not.
0:52:45 > 0:52:48What time did you get to bed last night?
0:52:48 > 0:52:51Just after Dic got in. About half twelve?
0:52:52 > 0:52:55Did you tell him you'd been out to see Bratton?
0:52:58 > 0:53:00- No.- Why not?
0:53:00 > 0:53:03I don't tell him what I'm up to every minute of the day.
0:53:03 > 0:53:05That's not the reason, is it?
0:53:07 > 0:53:11You didn't tell him because you didn't want him to know about the affair.
0:53:15 > 0:53:18- How did you find out about that? - It's pretty obvious.
0:53:20 > 0:53:23I wanted to know if he'd said anything about it to Dic.
0:53:24 > 0:53:27Why would Bratton tell Dic? Lowri, you're not making any sense.
0:53:27 > 0:53:30Are you, or are you not having an affair with Bratton?
0:53:30 > 0:53:33Bratton? No.
0:53:37 > 0:53:39You were having an affair with Michael Reynolds?
0:53:46 > 0:53:48He was like a brother to me.
0:53:49 > 0:53:51If he was in any trouble...
0:53:53 > 0:53:58All he had to do was ask and I'd be there for him always.
0:53:58 > 0:54:00When did you last see him last?
0:54:01 > 0:54:05Last night, in the pub. He was worried about Defi.
0:54:06 > 0:54:08Like we all were.
0:54:20 > 0:54:23Could Gwilym have had anything to do with Michael Reynolds's death?
0:54:23 > 0:54:25No.
0:54:25 > 0:54:27Not Gwilym.
0:54:36 > 0:54:39Michael persuaded Wyn to let us use his caravan.
0:54:40 > 0:54:44When you told me who it was in the quarry...I panicked.
0:54:45 > 0:54:48I had to know if Wyn had told Dic about me and Michael.
0:54:48 > 0:54:50He said he hadn't.
0:54:52 > 0:54:54- I was so relieved.- Why?
0:54:55 > 0:54:58It means Dic's in the clear.
0:55:00 > 0:55:03What happened the night Michael went?
0:55:04 > 0:55:06I was out, got back late.
0:55:09 > 0:55:13Dic told me that the camper van was fixed and that he'd gone.
0:55:13 > 0:55:16- How did you feel about that? - How do you think?
0:55:18 > 0:55:20He didn't even say goodbye.
0:55:23 > 0:55:26I didn't hear a word from him, until this...
0:55:30 > 0:55:32"M." Michael.
0:55:34 > 0:55:38I keep thinking, you could be wrong, couldn't you?
0:55:38 > 0:55:39About Michael?
0:55:41 > 0:55:43Mix-ups happen, don't they?
0:55:43 > 0:55:47I mean, if he's dead, how could he have sent me that in April?
0:55:49 > 0:55:51Lowri, Michael's dead.
0:55:51 > 0:55:53And he has been since February.
0:56:04 > 0:56:06Postmarked April 9th.
0:56:06 > 0:56:09- Does she have any idea who sent it? - No.
0:56:09 > 0:56:12But whoever it was wanted her to think that he was still alive.
0:56:12 > 0:56:15Find out if anyone from Penwyllt was in Dublin in April.
0:56:15 > 0:56:18- Ferries, airlines, scour the passenger lists.- Yes, sir.
0:56:18 > 0:56:22- Get someone onto Ynysuchaf School for a sample of Michael's handwriting.- OK.
0:56:22 > 0:56:26- Lowri and Michael were using Bratton's caravan for sex.- What?
0:56:26 > 0:56:28Bratton wasn't happy about it.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30- Dic Rees know about that? - She says not.
0:56:31 > 0:56:34- Let's get him in for a chat. - PHONE RINGS
0:56:34 > 0:56:36Mared Rhys. Hang on.
0:56:36 > 0:56:38Ballistics for you.
0:56:40 > 0:56:41Mathias.
0:57:27 > 0:57:29INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER
0:57:41 > 0:57:43'The preliminary report from the postmortem
0:57:43 > 0:57:46'and the assessment of the ballistics experts have cast doubt
0:57:46 > 0:57:49'on what happened the night Gwilym Morgan died.'
0:57:49 > 0:57:53Our initial analysis of events at the scene was wrong.
0:57:53 > 0:57:56Further investigation has shown that the length of the gun barrel
0:57:56 > 0:58:00was too long for Gwilym to have been able to reach the trigger himself,
0:58:00 > 0:58:02and no evidence has been found of any mechanism
0:58:02 > 0:58:04which would have enabled him to do so.
0:58:04 > 0:58:06Gwilym Morgan did not kill himself.
0:58:06 > 0:58:10The distribution of debris from the head indicates that the angle
0:58:10 > 0:58:13at which he was shot is not consistent with the gun being fired
0:58:13 > 0:58:15by the deceased himself.
0:58:15 > 0:58:17Gwilym Morgan was murdered.
0:58:30 > 0:58:33- What the hell are you doing?- Bratton knows something, that's for sure.
0:58:33 > 0:58:35But so do Dic Rees and Tommy James.
