0:00:02 > 0:00:04We've got a DNA match. His name's Michael Reynolds.

0:00:04 > 0:00:07They tested the water in his lungs against the quarry water. No match.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09He drowned somewhere else.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12St Christopher, sir. Always wore it.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15Defi? We were happy for Defi to spend time with Michael

0:00:15 > 0:00:18but not Bratton, not in that caravan.

0:00:18 > 0:00:212003, Bratton and his wife divorce.

0:00:21 > 0:00:25She's granted sole custody of their boys. He torches the house.

0:00:25 > 0:00:29Are you or are you not having an affair with Bratton? No.

0:00:29 > 0:00:32You were having an affair with Michael Reynolds.

0:00:32 > 0:00:33Sir, it's Gwilym Morgan.

0:00:33 > 0:00:36Dic Rees has just found him dead in his garage.

0:00:36 > 0:00:40Gwilym Morgan did not kill himself. Gwilym Morgan was murdered.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Gwilym Morgan kept his shotgun locked in a gun cabinet in the workshop.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56Whoever did it knew Morgan and knew the keys to the cabinet were in the desk.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00And they killed him to silence him about the death of Michael Reynolds.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Tommy and Gwyneth James, Lowri and Dic Rees

0:01:04 > 0:01:06all have alibis for the night that Gwilym died.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08And Bratton doesn't.

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Bring Bratton in and question him.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Now.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Did you like them using your place?

0:02:56 > 0:02:59I wasn't keen, no. But you still let them carry on?

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Why?

0:03:03 > 0:03:04He was a friend.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09'The other day at the caravan, when you fired the crossbow,

0:03:09 > 0:03:11'who did you think I was?'

0:03:12 > 0:03:15You thought I was Dic Rees, didn't you?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19You knew that his wife was having an affair with Reynolds

0:03:19 > 0:03:22and you did nothing. I didn't want to get involved.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24You are involved, Wyn.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29You let them have sex in your caravan.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31You let Defi hang his drawings on your wall.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35You think you don't need these people

0:03:35 > 0:03:38but the truth is, you can't live without them.

0:03:39 > 0:03:40Leave Defi out of this.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42He liked you, Wyn.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45He called you Mr Owl.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Why did he stop coming to see you?

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Did Tommy warn you off?

0:03:56 > 0:03:57Wyn?

0:04:04 > 0:04:06He said he'd break my legs if I went near Defi again.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Michael stopped bringing him after that.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Is that why you kept his drawings?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Defi.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20He must be the same age as one of your boys.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Isn't he?

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Sam. Sam.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Sam and..? Harri. Harri. Sam and Harri.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40You tried to burn their house down.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46I didn't know they were in there. So you say.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50I would never harm them.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06I think you fancied Lowri yourself.

0:05:07 > 0:05:08No.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12But you were too scared of Dic and his pals to make a play for her.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17You were jealous of Michael. No.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19You fell out with him about it.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21You really lost it.

0:05:21 > 0:05:26You drowned him in a stream in the forest and dumped him in the quarry.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29I never touched him. And somehow Gwilym found out about this

0:05:29 > 0:05:31and you went there last night and killed him, too.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34No, no, no!

0:05:37 > 0:05:39OK. You're free to go.

0:05:51 > 0:05:52I didn't kill Michael.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54I didn't kill Gwilym.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59That'll be all, DS Owens.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03What the hell are you doing?

0:06:03 > 0:06:06Bratton knows something, that's for sure,

0:06:06 > 0:06:07but so do Dic Rees and Tommy James.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11Something happened in that village and I know they're all involved.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13You'd better be right about this, Tom,

0:06:13 > 0:06:16because the last time I went out on a limb for you, a man ended up dead.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Sir, we checked Bratton's place. Nothing.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Michael's clothing?

0:06:23 > 0:06:25No, sir. No sign of them. We checked the whole clearing.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29Inside the caravan, under it, the rainwater butt, everywhere. Nothing.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Take Bratton back to his caravan, keep him talking.

0:06:34 > 0:06:35Right, sir.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Did Dic Rees know about the affair?

0:06:58 > 0:07:02I really don't know, but if he did, it would give him a clear motive for killing Michael.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Tommy and Gwyneth James flew to Dublin. When? April the 7th.

0:07:05 > 0:07:09Here's the postcard from Dublin, here's Michael's handwriting.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Completely different.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13If it came from Tommy James, it suggests he knew Michael was dead.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Why take the risk of sending a postcard? To stop Lowri asking more questions about Michael.

0:07:17 > 0:07:20Hold on! Is this Tommy's handwriting?

0:07:20 > 0:07:22We don't have a sample.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23No, we do. Where's that box?

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Here's a handwritten entry.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50These were written by the same person.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14TOMMY GROANS What now?

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Is this your writing?

0:08:17 > 0:08:20No. Are you sure? Certain.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23I need to see a sample of your handwriting then, Mr James.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28There'll be something in the office.

0:08:31 > 0:08:32Defi.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37What's that, Defi?

0:08:37 > 0:08:40It's me, Daddy and Uncle Dic when we used to go to the quarry.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44We used to go and watch the animals. Those were the days.

0:08:51 > 0:08:56We've been keeping an eye out, like you asked, no sign of the van.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01That forest is a big place. Asked Bratton about it, have you?

0:09:01 > 0:09:04He told us that you threatened him.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07I just...

0:09:07 > 0:09:11I made it very clear I didn't want Defi to go up there.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Come on, be fair. Would you want your kids hanging around

0:09:13 > 0:09:16that caravan with the likes of him?

0:09:17 > 0:09:19That's my writing.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27You took a flight to Dublin on April the 7th? That's right.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31You don't deny it? No. We both went. Me and Gwyneth.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Wedding anniversary. Excuse us.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42When did you find out that Lowri was having an affair?

0:09:46 > 0:09:49She told Gwyneth. And nobody said anything to Dic?

0:09:51 > 0:09:53It would have broken his heart.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36I've loved Lowri for as long as I can remember.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42I told her that I'd never leave her and I never will.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45When did you find out about her and Michael?

0:10:48 > 0:10:50I knew something was wrong.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54What difference does that make? When, Dic?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Today. At the station.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Stop the car. What?

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Stop the car. Please.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44Someone's been here. Our boys were here a few hours ago.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Down there? No.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Someone's been down there.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38Are you sure about this?

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Of course I'm sure.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43Come on, there's more tracks down here.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57There's something down here, behind those trees.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Grab this.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37It must have been here since the murder, sir.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40The killer would have wanted to hide it as soon as possible.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44The night Michael disappeared? Yes, sir. The 22nd of February. No.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48There would be marks where the wheels stood,

0:14:48 > 0:14:50the grass would be yellow.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53This is too clean.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56It should be covered in pine needles, filthy from the rain.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59These trees, Lloyd, have just been cut down. Look...

0:14:59 > 0:15:02These tracks weren't made in February. They're too fresh.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05A couple of days at most. What have you got to say about it?

0:15:05 > 0:15:07It wasn't here before.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11But you knew where it was. You brought Lloyd straight to it.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14I was in this clearing two days ago and I'm telling you, it wasn't here.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Somebody must have put it here whilst I was down in Aber with you.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19"Somebody?"

0:15:19 > 0:15:22Yeah, somebody who wants you to think I killed Michael.

0:15:23 > 0:15:27So remind me, where were you on the night of the 22nd of February?

0:15:27 > 0:15:30Here. Did you see Michael that night?

0:15:31 > 0:15:34No. Wasn't he in your caravan with Lowri?

0:15:34 > 0:15:36The last time I saw Michael was a week before he left.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Can anyone verify that you were here?

0:15:38 > 0:15:40No, I told you, no-one was out that night.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44I was up until the early hours, trying to fix a leak in the roof.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46I've never seen rain like it.

0:15:51 > 0:15:52Don't go too far, Wyn.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Lloyd, come with me.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Do you know where I was, the night he disappeared?

0:16:08 > 0:16:11In Fishguard, buying tickets for the ferry.

0:16:14 > 0:16:18We were going to take off to Ireland together, in his camper van.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22It took me hours to get home.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26The rain was terrible.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Tommy and Gwilym and Dic were still in here, drinking.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34And Michael had gone.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37That's what they told me.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Why have we stopped here, sir?

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Something's dislodged this.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Our trucks, probably.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19This bolt has been cut.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38SHEEP BLEAT

0:18:26 > 0:18:29"I've never seen rain like it" - that's what Bratton said.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36This is where Michael Reynolds drowned.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38The bruising on his face, the fingernails,

0:18:38 > 0:18:40this is where he died,

0:18:40 > 0:18:43pushing up against the bars, gasping for breath.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01DEEP BREATHING

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Is it deep enough to drown in? If it was full.

0:19:11 > 0:19:15Listen, that gully carries all the waste from that sheep pen, right?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18Right. I think there was so much water running down

0:19:18 > 0:19:21from this hillside on the night of the 22nd of February

0:19:21 > 0:19:23that it overflowed and flooded the pit.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28If you were going to murder someone, would you really do it this way?

0:19:28 > 0:19:31What if murder wasn't the intention?

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Sir, over there.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55DEEP BREATHING

0:20:00 > 0:20:02Thanks, Lloyd, go get your car.

0:20:02 > 0:20:06Someone puts Michael Reynolds under the cattle-grid and leaves him.

0:20:06 > 0:20:08To frighten him? To warn him.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12When they come back and see that he's drowned, they panic,

0:20:12 > 0:20:14take the body and dump him in the quarry.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Was Gwilym involved?

0:20:16 > 0:20:18I think he knew about it. That's why he was silenced.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31You were in bed asleep? What, all night?

0:20:31 > 0:20:35I went out to the bathroom, but that apart, yes.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46I'd only been downstairs about a quarter of an hour

0:20:46 > 0:20:49when Dic came banging on the door.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52Dic came to you first? In a hell of a state, he was.

0:20:52 > 0:20:55He told me what he'd found, about Gwilym.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01And then? We rang 999.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24PHONE RINGS Mathias.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Sir, you've got to get up to the forest road. Bratton's on the move.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Bratton's running.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Get onto Traffic, get him stopped.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Shit!

0:22:38 > 0:22:39Sir?

0:22:42 > 0:22:45I found these in the back of Bratton's truck.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51They must be Michael's.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12Recognise these, Wyn? No.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14You know where we found them?

0:23:14 > 0:23:16The back of your Land Rover.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22These are Michael's clothes and this is his blood on them.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25I didn't kill him. Why won't you believe me?

0:23:25 > 0:23:28Oh, I'm trying to, Wyn, but every time I think you might be telling the truth,

0:23:28 > 0:23:31something happens to make me think again.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38How did you miss them? We didn't, sir.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42The whole area was checked, including the Land Rover.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46Those clothes weren't there. I'm absolutely sure of it.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55'Those clothes were planted there.' By who?

0:24:05 > 0:24:07You know who planted those clothes, don't you?

0:24:10 > 0:24:13I want to help you, Wyn, but we're running out of time.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18I know you're scared and I don't blame you.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22But I can't help you if you won't tell me.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Please, Wyn...

0:24:33 > 0:24:35..before it's too late.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Help me.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54Tommy James...came to the caravan this morning.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58He said if I didn't get out right now,

0:24:58 > 0:24:59he'd do to me what he did to Gwilym.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06He told you that he killed Gwilym?

0:25:15 > 0:25:16The night Michael died...

0:25:20 > 0:25:24..he was up there with the other two by the cattle-grid.

0:25:27 > 0:25:28The rain was coming down.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32They were chasing him in that lamping truck,

0:25:32 > 0:25:34making him run around.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Then Dic gets hold of him and starts...

0:25:39 > 0:25:43..like, hitting him, kicking him, just going wild,

0:25:43 > 0:25:45the other two egging him on.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50I should have stopped it. I know I should have. I wanted to.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52You were scared.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55Not of them.

0:25:58 > 0:25:59I've worked so hard.

0:25:59 > 0:26:02Do you know how hard that is?

0:26:02 > 0:26:03Learning to live on your own?

0:26:08 > 0:26:10You let Defi and Michael get close.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15And Tommy took them away.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17That's why I did nothing, I...

0:26:19 > 0:26:21I saw them put Michael in the cattle-grid.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25I heard him scream but I walked away.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28I didn't think he'd drown in there but I walked away.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31I should have helped him.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34He would have helped me, I know he would have, but...

0:26:37 > 0:26:38..I didn't.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44I didn't.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06The prints in the camper van all belong to one person, sir.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Tommy James? Yes, sir.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35Is he here?

0:27:40 > 0:27:43Gwyneth...tell me where he is!

0:30:25 > 0:30:27TOMMY SHOUTS

0:30:45 > 0:30:47TOMMY GROANS

0:31:11 > 0:31:13THEY BOTH GROAN

0:31:37 > 0:31:39DIC STRUGGLES

0:32:05 > 0:32:07Right.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23Come on! Come on!

0:32:35 > 0:32:37Come on!

0:32:37 > 0:32:39Come on! Come on!

0:32:52 > 0:32:54DIC COUGHS VIOLENTLY

0:33:58 > 0:34:01We didn't mean to kill Michael Reynolds.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Just teach him a lesson.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Carrying on with Lowri.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15If it hadn't rained so hard...

0:34:17 > 0:34:19..he'd still be alive.

0:34:25 > 0:34:26So would Gwil.

0:34:33 > 0:34:35I loved Gwil...

0:34:37 > 0:34:39..like a brother.

0:34:42 > 0:34:44None of this was meant to happen.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48None of it.

0:34:58 > 0:34:59Well done.

0:35:01 > 0:35:03Thank you, sir.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11Good night. Good night.
