0:00:30 > 0:00:34'Jackson, Liz, Labour Party,'

0:00:34 > 0:00:37- 20,609. - CHEERING

0:00:41 > 0:00:43And I declare that Liz Jackson is duly elected

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Member of Parliament for this constituency.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51Give me five minutes.

0:01:09 > 0:01:10Yes!

0:01:12 > 0:01:17'Hallam, James, Christian Democrats, 289.'

0:01:17 > 0:01:19JEERING

0:01:21 > 0:01:25Twigg, Stephen, Labour Party,

0:01:25 > 0:01:27twenty thousand...

0:01:27 > 0:01:29CHEERING

0:01:36 > 0:01:412nd May 1997 should've been the best day of Ben Ransley's life.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43He was Liz Jackson's researcher,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46and he'd just seen her re-elected with a huge majority.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49That was an incredible night. The atmosphere was just electric.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Not in my house. Holly was teething, we were on our knees.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54So was I, as it happens.

0:01:54 > 0:01:57Ben was killed roughly two hours after the vote was announced

0:01:57 > 0:01:59and he was found under Westminster Bridge.

0:01:59 > 0:02:00What was he doing there?

0:02:00 > 0:02:03All we know for certain is that he was punched, broke his jaw

0:02:03 > 0:02:05and died from trauma to the head as he hit the floor.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07The investigation put it down to a robbery

0:02:07 > 0:02:09but they couldn't even raise a suspect.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12There was nothing much to go on - no CCTV, no witnesses, no forensics.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16And there may have been political pressure to have it stay out of the limelight.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19What, you mean the spin doctors kept it out of the news?

0:02:19 > 0:02:22Well, the press had plenty of other things to talk about.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24We won Eurovision the very next day.

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Katrina and the Waves.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Happy days.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30The only real lead the first inquiry had was this,

0:02:30 > 0:02:32found in Ben's wallet, but none of his friends,

0:02:32 > 0:02:34family or colleagues could identify her.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37Blimey, if I had a looker like that in my wallet

0:02:37 > 0:02:38I'd want everyone to know about it.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41Which is exactly why you'd never have a looker like that.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43No-one could find her and so the case was put to rest...

0:02:43 > 0:02:45until last week.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47A bank in Jersey contacted Ben's mother to tell her

0:02:47 > 0:02:49about a dormant account in his name.

0:02:49 > 0:02:54Opened with a cash deposit of £40,000 two months before he died,

0:02:54 > 0:02:55and untouched ever since.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Well, was he from a wealthy family?

0:02:57 > 0:02:59No, and as a researcher, he would've been on about 18K,

0:02:59 > 0:03:01so obviously the question is...

0:03:01 > 0:03:04What was he doing with 40k offshore?

0:03:04 > 0:03:05Gambler? Dealer?

0:03:05 > 0:03:08As a politician, bent like the rest of them.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Yeah. Keep me posted.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12- I will.- This is outrageous!

0:03:12 > 0:03:14He only got three grand in interest.

0:03:16 > 0:03:22Three grand in 16 years - that's a yield of only 0.4% AER!

0:03:22 > 0:03:24If he'd have bunged this in a wrap-around ISA,

0:03:24 > 0:03:28over the equivalent period he'd be looking at 7 to 8% minimum.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30HE TUTS

0:03:30 > 0:03:35Look at this, eh? The nerve centre of 900 years of democracy.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39All that time and the lunatics are still running the asylum.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Polly's studying politics, you know.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44She'd give her eye teeth to be in there.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47You'd let her go in there with that mob?

0:03:48 > 0:03:52Ben Ransley was a key member of Liz Jackson's campaign team.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54And what's she doing now?

0:03:54 > 0:03:55Left parliament in 2003.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59Was a local councillor before that, and now works for a housing co-op.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01- Back down to earth with a bump.- Hmm.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Jim Marshall, Liz Jackson's senior strategist at the time,

0:04:07 > 0:04:09he's still a big beast behind the scenes.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13Never been an MP, but has advised senior figures in the Cabinet,

0:04:13 > 0:04:15before setting up a think tank

0:04:15 > 0:04:19which pursues gradualist reforms to free market economies.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Still got his snout in the trough, then?

0:04:22 > 0:04:23Yes, I think you'll get on with Jim.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Why? Don't you think I'd enjoy a free and frank exchange

0:04:29 > 0:04:31about supply side economics?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34No, cos he asked us to meet here.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36Ah!

0:04:38 > 0:04:40Let's not keep him waiting, eh?

0:04:54 > 0:04:57I wasn't sure I wanted to tell anyone about this Jersey account.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59You've done the right thing.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01We know it could be difficult for you, reopening the case,

0:05:01 > 0:05:03but if we can find out what happened,

0:05:03 > 0:05:05- it might help you come to terms... - Oh, please.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Don't talk to me about closure.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11I've had 16 years of people telling me to move on, get over it.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16How are you meant to get over the murder of your child?

0:05:18 > 0:05:23Was it a surprise that Ben kept this £40,000 a secret from you?

0:05:23 > 0:05:27Ben's father died at no age, leaving just the two of us.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30We love each other, but you keep your privacy, too.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32Yes, but it's a lot of money.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Are you sure he didn't mention anything at all?

0:05:34 > 0:05:36He'd left home. Had his own life.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39He'd come back some weekends, still help me out on jobs,

0:05:39 > 0:05:42but I have no idea where this money came from.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45And you didn't know the girl from the photo, either?

0:05:46 > 0:05:48I walked in on him once with a girl.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50He was so embarrassed.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54We didn't talk much about personal things after that.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58Were there any names, girls' names, in his diaries?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01The police looked, but...

0:06:04 > 0:06:07It was the worst day, clearing his flat.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11I never could go through his things.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15The boxes sat in the garage for years.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Eventually I gave them to Eddie.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21Eddie who?

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Eddie Trenton, his closest friend.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28He's more likely to know about the girls...

0:06:28 > 0:06:30everything.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Here you go.- Cheers. - Sorry we had to meet in here.

0:06:33 > 0:06:34No problem!

0:06:34 > 0:06:37People think the House is where it's at, but I've made more

0:06:37 > 0:06:40progress over a pint and a pie in here than a dozen fancy functions.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42A far cry from Liverpool.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46Democracy belongs to us all, and I've earned my place the hard way.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48The miners' strike, trade unions...

0:06:48 > 0:06:49But you haven't come here

0:06:49 > 0:06:52to hear about my political odyssey, have you?

0:06:52 > 0:06:53You were close to Ben?

0:06:53 > 0:06:57Yeah, we worked side by side for the best part of, what, three years?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Oh, here's Liz now.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Hi, Liz Jackson.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06He walked into party HQ straight from university, this lanky kid.

0:07:06 > 0:07:10There was nothing to him, a gust of wind would've blown him over.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Started as a researcher, running strategy with Jim in no time.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14So it was quite an important job then?

0:07:14 > 0:07:18Yeah, we'd formulate Liz's policy positions, speeches, press meetings, you name it.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Ben was young, but he had a sophisticated political instinct,

0:07:22 > 0:07:25which is a perfect match for Jim's more robust approach.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28We could do with him on our side now.

0:07:28 > 0:07:29You're standing again?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32In 2015. Jim's kindly offered to help me with my campaign,

0:07:32 > 0:07:34even though he's a very important person these days.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36HE CHUCKLES

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Can I take you back to '97?

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Why is this investigation being reopened?

0:07:41 > 0:07:42New evidence.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46An offshore account. With a big chunk of money in it.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48That doesn't sound like Ben. Are you sure it's his?

0:07:48 > 0:07:49£40,000.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52Now, would you have any idea where that came from?

0:07:52 > 0:07:56Liz is standing again. Maybe they're raking things over to discredit her?

0:07:56 > 0:07:57No, this isn't a smear.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59The evidence has come from a legitimate source.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Did Ben give any indication that he was in trouble?

0:08:01 > 0:08:04You know, drinking, gambling?

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Nah, he wasn't that sort of kid.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09So, when did you first notice that he'd left the town hall that night?

0:08:09 > 0:08:11We think the last time we saw him was about 1.30,

0:08:11 > 0:08:13just after the Totnes results came in.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17The last contact I had with him, he hugged me and he said,

0:08:17 > 0:08:21"We've done it," and he said he thought I was going to be a brilliant MP.

0:08:21 > 0:08:22Did it sound like goodbye?

0:08:22 > 0:08:26He did the same with me. Folk were hugging all night long.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28So, why did he leave the town hall?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30I wish we knew.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32Ah, we have a constituency Q&A.

0:08:32 > 0:08:33Of course.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36But if there's anything else we can do to help, anything at all...

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Thank you for your time. - Nice to meet you.- You too.

0:08:39 > 0:08:40Goodbye. Thank you.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Whoa, whoa, whoa.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48We're going nowhere, son, we've still got work to do.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58"Trenton Communications promotes

0:08:58 > 0:09:02"and protects the interest of world class brands in current affairs."

0:09:02 > 0:09:05- What the hell does that mean? - Someone swallowed a bullshit pill.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Come on through.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11You sure? We've only been waiting 70 minutes(!)

0:09:21 > 0:09:24So, you and Ben were at university together?

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Yes. Well, we actually met in a sandpit when we were two.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Schooled together, then read economics at Manchester,

0:09:30 > 0:09:31before moving to London.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34What exactly is it you do?

0:09:34 > 0:09:36The full spectrum of public relations.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Brand engagement, corporate, digital and strategic communications,

0:09:39 > 0:09:41crisis management, regulatory affairs...

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Do you work with the Government?

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Business needs to speak to legislators. I provide the conduit.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53You were very close to Ben, and yet you never met this girl.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Or knew of his account in Jersey.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Not until Orla told me about it, no.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Any ideas why he had all that money offshore?

0:10:00 > 0:10:03Do you know everything about the financial affairs of your mates?

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Were there a lot of girls?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Well, yeah, he'd hook up with someone if he needed to,

0:10:08 > 0:10:09but he wasn't in it for the relationship.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Why would he have a photo of this girl in his wallet?

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Who can tell? But she wasn't only in his wallet.

0:10:18 > 0:10:19I found this.

0:10:19 > 0:10:24It wasn't actually with Ben's stuff, he lent me a load of books ages ago, and I forgot they were his.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27I found them again at the back of a bookshelf when I was moving home in 2011.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30That photo just...popped out.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32Did you take this to the police?

0:10:32 > 0:10:34I only brought it in because I knew you were coming.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37We've been looking for this woman, you should've handed it in.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39I didn't know it was important.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41The case was closed. It's just her photo!

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Marshall and Jackson couldn't shed any new light on Ben's death,

0:10:46 > 0:10:48but...we stayed on at the pub.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51All in the name of plod, you understand.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52Your commitment is admirable.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55We just bought a few drinks and loosened a few tongues.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58And came away with enough gossip to fuel a dozen investigations.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00Good. Any to fuel this one?

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Well, nobody really remembers Ben,

0:11:02 > 0:11:05but Eddie Trenton certainly made a few enemies.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- By doing what? - It may be old-fashioned jealousy.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10He's a powerful player, makes a heap. The hacks are aggrieved.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13And a couple of them definitely thought he was a bit dodgy.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15- So we're talking corruption? - Of course we are,

0:11:15 > 0:11:17it's all snouts in troughs, innit?

0:11:17 > 0:11:21Well, we MAY be talking about a bunch of boozed-up insiders making mischief,

0:11:21 > 0:11:24but he's a lobbyist, his best friend worked for an MP.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Want me to dig into it?

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Guv. Come and look at this.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32See what she's wearing?

0:11:33 > 0:11:34I preferred her other outfit.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37Not the fashion, bumface, look what's written on it.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56He's just there. All right?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Some place, innit?

0:11:59 > 0:12:00Yeah.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Excuse me, Mr Russell?

0:12:02 > 0:12:03Yes, hello.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Detective Superintendent Pullman.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07This is my colleague, Gerry Standing.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11We're really sorry to bother you, Mr Russell, we know it's a long shot,

0:12:11 > 0:12:14but this lady is wearing one of your company fleeces.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Do you recognise either of them?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Well, I don't know him but she's my wife.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Can we have a word with her?

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Well, I haven't seen her since 1997.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Her name's Hana.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31Hana Keranovic.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34And you're sure that you don't know the man?

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Because they seem like quite close friends.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39She had a lot of friends.

0:12:39 > 0:12:43This one was killed. On 2nd May 1997.

0:12:43 > 0:12:44His name is Ben Ransley.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Ransley?

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Well... That's the caterers.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53They do all our company events.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Ben used to work for his mother sometimes,

0:12:56 > 0:12:58so maybe that's where he met Hana.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01When did you last see your wife?

0:13:01 > 0:13:03On the morning of May 2nd.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06She said she was going into town shopping.

0:13:06 > 0:13:08She never came back.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11You reported her missing?

0:13:11 > 0:13:13I didn't.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15I assumed she'd gone home.

0:13:15 > 0:13:19- Back to Bosnia.- Hold on, hold on. Your beautiful wife disappears,

0:13:19 > 0:13:22anything could've happened to her, and you did nothing about it?

0:13:22 > 0:13:24She was much younger than me.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25I knew she'd leave eventually.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29And you're all right with that arrangement?

0:13:29 > 0:13:32Do you have an address for her in Bosnia?

0:13:32 > 0:13:33I never knew where she lived.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37Her town was destroyed in the war. She...

0:13:37 > 0:13:39She didn't like to dwell on it.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41Where did the two of you meet?

0:13:43 > 0:13:45At a members' club in town.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48And you've had no contact with her since she disappeared?

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Talk to Lucas Klasnic. He owns the club.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54He's more likely than me to know where she went.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15Membership is £10,000 a year.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Even for the girls?

0:14:19 > 0:14:22I run a convivial place where powerful men can meet

0:14:22 > 0:14:26suitable women who they otherwise wouldn't have time to encounter.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Tell me about Hana Keranovic.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Hana? Was she a member?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33She married Peter Russell in 1996.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36He's the owner of a multi-million-pound engineering business.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39One of our success stories. How are they?

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I was told you'd know where she is.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43I haven't seen her since she married.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46I don't have much to do with former members.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Hana must be at least 35 years younger than Russell -

0:14:48 > 0:14:52is that the usual service you provide?

0:14:52 > 0:14:56People like me and...Hana

0:14:56 > 0:14:59had nothing when we came to the UK.

0:14:59 > 0:15:04Money, family, friends, security, peace - none.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06But Hana had beauty.

0:15:06 > 0:15:11If her parents hadn't been murdered, her country destroyed,

0:15:11 > 0:15:14she wouldn't have used her looks any more than you have in your life.

0:15:15 > 0:15:20Help me find her. Russell doesn't even know where she came from.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Kozarac, northwest Bosnia.

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Do you have an address?

0:15:24 > 0:15:29It's a small town. Most of the people were executed.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30Would she go back?

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Would you?

0:15:32 > 0:15:35SINGING AND CHEERING

0:15:42 > 0:15:46Let's hope they're not planning a second career in light entertainment.

0:15:46 > 0:15:49They just won an election. They're entitled to let their hair down.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Bunch of plums, the lot of them.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Never had you down as an old Tory, Gerry.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Me? I'm not anything. I just hate politicians.

0:15:55 > 0:15:58- So who do you vote for, then? - None of your business.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01- Come on, I'm interested. - Well, I'm not biting.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05Politics and religion, as my old mum used to say, are off the table.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09So he's talking to Armani jocks, but I can't do anything about that now.

0:16:09 > 0:16:10How are we doing with Interpol?

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- Yeah, we're onto it. - And the husband?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Well, he claims that he was in the house all that night making

0:16:15 > 0:16:18phone calls, trying to find out what happened to Hana.

0:16:18 > 0:16:19We're chasing the phone company.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21What about the TV footage?

0:16:21 > 0:16:23All tallies with what Jackson and Marshall told us.

0:16:23 > 0:16:27Ben's at the hall till just before the Totnes result, then he drops out of sight.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29- I don't suppose Hana shows up?- No.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32Yeah, well, I've got a friend who might be able to help you find her.

0:16:32 > 0:16:33Max Clement.

0:16:33 > 0:16:3620 years with the French police, seven at serious and organised.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39He's a UN war crimes investigator, specialises in Former Yugoslavia.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42I'm sure his mother is very proud, but I don't need any help, thank you, sir.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44The Bosniak diaspora in London

0:16:44 > 0:16:47clusters in Willesden, Harrow, Hounslow and Whitechapel.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49His money is on Hounslow.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51You've already spoken to him.

0:16:51 > 0:16:55It's easy to hide there. Plenty of shadow work at the airport.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Max is flying in tomorrow on other business. You should meet.

0:16:57 > 0:17:01- This is my investigation, sir.- Yeah, well, I don't see much progress.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05We are making progress. I've been going through Ben's finances.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08There's nothing here to tell us much about Jersey but in the months

0:17:08 > 0:17:12before his death, he made regular withdrawals from an ATM in Victoria.

0:17:13 > 0:17:14So?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17So, it's not on his route to work or home.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21What's he doing there?

0:17:24 > 0:17:28Right, now the hole in the wall used to be here.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33Yeah. There were six visits in February, nine in March

0:17:33 > 0:17:37and April, all at lunchtime, and all taking around 50 quid out each time.

0:17:37 > 0:17:42I'd say it's gambling, but there's no bookie's anywhere. I just...

0:17:45 > 0:17:47Ha ha!

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Mint me a medal and call me Sherlock.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53The perfect place to bring your bit of skirt.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08You're the longest-serving member of staff.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11I was just a chambermaid in 1997.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13But you had contact with the guests?

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Sometimes.

0:18:15 > 0:18:17Well, this couple were regulars.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20They probably wouldn't have stayed the night.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24Lunchtime liaisons, the sort of arrangement staff should remember.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26No, I don't recognise.

0:18:26 > 0:18:30His name is Ben Ransley and that's Hana Keranovic.

0:18:32 > 0:18:33I can take the photo?

0:18:33 > 0:18:36I'm still friends with many of the people who worked

0:18:36 > 0:18:38here in those days.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42- So you've been here 18 years?- Hm. - You never wanted to move?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44I don't like change. Here is fine.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Well, your English is very fine.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49I'm married to an Arsenal fan.

0:18:49 > 0:18:50Hard luck!

0:18:50 > 0:18:53- Where are you from originally? - Bosnia.- Just like Hana.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56I don't know this girl.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04She knows. Get hold of Steve and put a tail on her when she leaves.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Tail? No, no, no, I've got somewhere to be tonight.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09Tell her to start without you.

0:19:12 > 0:19:16Yeah, Holly, look, can we talk about this when I get home?

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Don't freak, Dad, I'm only trying to help.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21Dan, how are we doing with Russell's alibi?

0:19:21 > 0:19:24Erm, yeah. The phone records check out, he was making calls all through the night.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Hi, Sandra.

0:19:28 > 0:19:29Hello, Holly.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32I was just telling Dad that I wrote a special

0:19:32 > 0:19:35assignment on the role of lobbyists in democracy.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38Your Eddie Trenton is a piece of work.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40You've spoken to her about the case?

0:19:40 > 0:19:44- I broke into Dad's laptop. - Holly, that was out of order.

0:19:44 > 0:19:49- Your password is Holly95, it doesn't take a criminal mastermind.- Holly!

0:19:49 > 0:19:52Eddie got caught handing out Commons passes.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Is that bad?

0:19:54 > 0:19:57He got away with it, but it means he doesn't play by the rules, which is

0:19:57 > 0:20:01interesting, when we learn about Liz Jackson's role on the committee.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03What committee?

0:20:03 > 0:20:07Jackson sat on a parliamentary committee during her first term,

0:20:07 > 0:20:09exploring the ethics of the arms industry.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11Those committees are mega powerful.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15Jackson would've had a hand in the committee's final report,

0:20:15 > 0:20:18with recommendations that could cost businesses billions.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21So, we know that Eddie is fly and we now know that Ben

0:20:21 > 0:20:25worked for an MP who sits on an extremely influential committee.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Oh, we do, do we?

0:20:27 > 0:20:29They've got to have been up to something.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32OK. Holly, thank you very much. Bye-bye.

0:20:32 > 0:20:34I'm so sorry, I had no idea she'd broken into...

0:20:34 > 0:20:37Can you prove there's a connection between Eddie and Ben on this?

0:20:37 > 0:20:39No, but then I don't think anyone...

0:20:39 > 0:20:43Get me proof and I might not slap you with a data protection charge.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47Jackson never climbed the pole after the '97 landslide.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51Wouldn't follow the party line. You can see it in her speeches.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55Disappointed at the level of entry for the minimum wage, strongly opposed to parts of the...

0:20:55 > 0:20:57Oi, oi, oi! Is any of this helping us find Hana?

0:20:57 > 0:20:59We can't afford to ignore Ben's political involvement here.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02It's got nothing to do with politics.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04And the only involvement we need to know about is,

0:21:04 > 0:21:05he was jumping someone else's wife.

0:21:05 > 0:21:09Everything's political. This car, your pension, the potholes...

0:21:09 > 0:21:13- Don't push my buttons!- It's all related. You've got to take note, have an opinion about things.

0:21:13 > 0:21:14Shut up, here she is.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19Right, you follow her. Give us that, leave the keys.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- I've already spoken to her - I'll be 50 yards behind you.- Yeah, yeah.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18It's been a while, sorry.

0:22:44 > 0:22:45Sorry.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Let me through - police!

0:22:52 > 0:22:53Shit!

0:23:34 > 0:23:35What took you so long?

0:23:35 > 0:23:38I've never been good at this kind of caper. I'm more your cerebral type.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40What's she up to?

0:23:40 > 0:23:44Nothing. And taking a bleeding long time doing it. Listen, listen.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47You can carry on from here, can't you? I'm on a promise.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Listen, pal, this is a stakeout. You can't leave me here on my own!

0:23:54 > 0:23:56It's all right for you cerebral types,

0:23:56 > 0:23:57you've got things to think about.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00- I've got more physical urges. - Here, come on.

0:24:06 > 0:24:07No, no!

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Stay where you are!

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Tell me everything, Marta.

0:24:29 > 0:24:30Hana was a friend.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34But I didn't know Ben till she brought him to the hotel.

0:24:34 > 0:24:36They were lovers?

0:24:36 > 0:24:38They were planning to run away.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40They'd been saving up.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43And this was the bank account in Jersey?

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Did Hana's husband find out?

0:24:49 > 0:24:51I don't know.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Where did she go after Ben died?

0:24:53 > 0:24:56She lived with me.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58I got her a job at the airport.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02Where is she living now?

0:25:02 > 0:25:03Hounslow?

0:25:06 > 0:25:08- What name is she using? - She didn't kill Ben.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11- She didn't come forward. - She was frightened.- Of what?

0:25:13 > 0:25:16Please. I can't say anything.

0:25:18 > 0:25:19Where is she now?

0:25:20 > 0:25:22I don't know.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25Marta's not given us very much,

0:25:25 > 0:25:27but this is her phone, so Hana's number will be on it.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30Find it and get on to the networks, will you?

0:25:30 > 0:25:32- It'll take 14 days to process. - Just do it, Gerry.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Marta and Hana have both seen war.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40Hana saw her boyfriend murdered,

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Marta would rather die than give Hana up.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44These women are tough.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47Where does she go?

0:25:47 > 0:25:48Do you think Hana was a spy?

0:25:48 > 0:25:50Huh?

0:25:50 > 0:25:51A honey trap.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53Sent to seduce him in order to gain access

0:25:53 > 0:25:55to Jackson's parliamentary secrets.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58- He's having one of his moments. - It happens! There was a Lib Dem

0:25:58 > 0:26:01who had an affair with his much younger Russian researcher and she...

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Thank you, John Le Carre!

0:26:06 > 0:26:12Guv'nor, why don't you have a word with Strickland's mate?

0:26:15 > 0:26:17He did make the Hounslow connection.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21Come on, boys. Work.

0:27:04 > 0:27:07Taxi drivers have changed for the better since my last visit.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09I'm not a taxi driver.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13Then what have I done right to deserve being met by you?

0:27:18 > 0:27:22I'm looking for a Bosnian woman. Hana Keranovic.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Is she a Croat or Bosniak?

0:27:24 > 0:27:26It makes a difference.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28She's from Kozarac.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Poor girl. I did seven years in Serious.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35You think you've seen it all. Just a minute.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38The Serb army attacked Kozarac in May 1992.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41They shot people in their homes and others who surrendered were

0:27:41 > 0:27:43taken to a football stadium, where more of them were killed.

0:27:43 > 0:27:47The rest of the villagers were marched into the forest,

0:27:47 > 0:27:50separated by sex and sent to the camp.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53- Keranovic, you said her name was? - Yeah.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Is that her whole family?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00They're still finding bodies.

0:28:00 > 0:28:051,226 have been buried so far, but hundreds are missing.

0:28:05 > 0:28:11Hana was probably sent to Trnopolje concentration camp.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14It's a miracle she got to this country at all.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18We traced her to Hounslow, but she managed to get away.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Would she go back home?

0:28:20 > 0:28:22There's nothing there for her.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Where would she go?

0:28:25 > 0:28:29If she escaped the camp and managed to come here,

0:28:29 > 0:28:31she's an expert at slipping through the cracks.

0:28:31 > 0:28:36But...but the community is close knit.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39- Fancy something to eat? - I thought you had a meeting?

0:28:39 > 0:28:42Rule of life. Always embrace the unexpected.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44En la?

0:28:44 > 0:28:46INDISTINCT CONVERSATION

0:29:11 > 0:29:13Thank you. A kebab?

0:29:13 > 0:29:16Aren't you supposed to enjoy this after several gallons of lager?

0:29:16 > 0:29:18This is the finest food you'll ever taste.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Will it help me find my suspect?

0:29:20 > 0:29:23She's long gone. Eat the kebab.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29So, why did you join the war crimes unit?

0:29:31 > 0:29:34I really loved my work with the French police,

0:29:34 > 0:29:37but I needed another challenge.

0:29:38 > 0:29:40And there was this girl.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44Did you hear of the Marija Vlasic case?

0:29:44 > 0:29:47Yeah. Vaguely.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49A bit like your Hana. Escaped the war.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52Built a real good life here.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54She killed a man, didn't she? Tortured him?

0:29:54 > 0:29:58Mistook him for a Serbian commander who burnt her village.

0:29:58 > 0:30:03And you know, she didn't have to do it, but the horror dragged her back.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06I caught the actual commander, years later.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Seeing him sentenced at the Hague was the proudest

0:30:09 > 0:30:11moment of my career.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17People like Hana, they've seen all that's worst. It makes them tough.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21It makes them survivors.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23Killers?

0:30:28 > 0:30:30What's your number?

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Well, we may not be able to find Hana,

0:30:35 > 0:30:39but we can ask her to make contact.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Hana Keranovic.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49THEY SPEAK IN DIALECT

0:30:57 > 0:31:00These guys, they know everyone.

0:31:00 > 0:31:04I assured them you meant Hana no harm. She'll be in touch.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06PHONE RINGS

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Excuse me.

0:31:09 > 0:31:11Yes, Gerry.

0:31:11 > 0:31:14Peter Russell, who said he hadn't been in touch with

0:31:14 > 0:31:18Hana for 16 years, texted her two days ago.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22"Peter mailed. People came to see him.

0:31:22 > 0:31:24"Tell me if they come to you. "

0:31:24 > 0:31:29That's a text then from your wife to her friend Marta that we had translated.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Why did you lie?

0:31:31 > 0:31:34We've only been in contact twice since she left.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37Eight years ago she e-mailed me that she needed money.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40- I wired her a transfer. - Did you feel used?

0:31:40 > 0:31:42- I felt wanted.- That's nice(!)

0:31:42 > 0:31:46Did she strike a similar deal in '97 and ask for £40k?

0:31:46 > 0:31:48She never asked for money before.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52- But you knew she was having an affair with Ben Ransley? - Hana was a beautiful young woman.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56You must've thought all your Christmases had come at once when you married her.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00And then Ben comes along. Regular hotel sessions, hands all over her...

0:32:00 > 0:32:01You've got this wrong.

0:32:01 > 0:32:04He was going to steal her. You had every right to kill him.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06I never even met the guy!

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Look, I knew what it meant when I married Hana.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12I knew she'd need affection from somebody her own age.

0:32:12 > 0:32:13This wasn't affection. This was sex.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16She was really brave. I wanted to protect her.

0:32:16 > 0:32:17We know exactly what you wanted.

0:32:17 > 0:32:19I told her that I'd never stand in her way.

0:32:19 > 0:32:20You bought her from a club.

0:32:20 > 0:32:22That's enough! I'm a mug.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24There's no need to rub it in.

0:32:24 > 0:32:25Where is she, Peter?

0:32:25 > 0:32:29You see the worst of people in here. But the other 99.9% of us,

0:32:29 > 0:32:34when we're in love, all we want is our partners happy and safe.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36However much that may hurt.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38KNOCK ON DOOR

0:32:38 > 0:32:41It's been like this for a while. Nothing happening.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44But it's got to be Hana, hasn't it? Some sort of message?

0:32:47 > 0:32:49'Is DS Pullman there?'

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Is that you, Hana?

0:32:53 > 0:32:54I want to help you.

0:32:54 > 0:32:55Then come in and talk to me.

0:32:55 > 0:32:59I could've phoned but I want you to see me.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01- Know that you can trust me. - This isn't trust.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04You're still hiding and I've got your husband in custody.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07He's not involved. Let him go. I was there.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09I saw the killer.

0:33:10 > 0:33:14Corner of Eden Place and Glenmore Street in an hour. Come alone.

0:33:17 > 0:33:18She said to come alone.

0:33:18 > 0:33:20She doesn't make the rules.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22She knows what you look like now.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25She's totally paranoid.

0:33:25 > 0:33:26- Governor.- We'll...

0:33:26 > 0:33:29PHONE RINGS

0:33:31 > 0:33:33'I asked for you to come alone.

0:33:33 > 0:33:37'I see three of you at least. There's another phone box.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39'Crown Street. By the bridge.

0:33:39 > 0:33:42'Five minutes.'

0:33:42 > 0:33:44Where are we going? Oi! Oi!

0:34:00 > 0:34:04If I'd known we'd be doing this much running about, I'd have bought my roller blades.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08'You're still not alone. Last chance and I mean it.

0:34:08 > 0:34:09'Keep walking east.'

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Wait here.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14What?

0:34:42 > 0:34:45I didn't kill Ben. I loved him.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- Talk to me.- It was my fault. I knew it was dangerous.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54You were going to leave your husband and run away with Ben, yeah?

0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Straight after that stupid election. - That night?

0:34:57 > 0:35:00We should've left before but he had to help his MP win.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02Did you have enough money to run away?

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Ben said he had.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06From where? Eddie?

0:35:06 > 0:35:07I don't know this.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10What was the danger, Hana?

0:35:10 > 0:35:17Lukas. Lukas will kill anyone who leaves him. He rescues Balkan girls.

0:35:17 > 0:35:19He trained us to meet your ugly men.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21Prostitution?

0:35:21 > 0:35:24'No. We make them fall in love. No sex before marriage.'

0:35:24 > 0:35:26Hana?

0:35:26 > 0:35:28'Is that what happened with Russell?'

0:35:28 > 0:35:31'For a year I was telling him my sad stories,

0:35:31 > 0:35:34'until he'd do anything for me.'

0:35:34 > 0:35:37..Just for you.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39Why does Lukas want you to marry?

0:35:39 > 0:35:42So we can pay our debt to him. Lukas saved us.

0:35:42 > 0:35:46He got us out of Bosnia. Bought our clothes, our food.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49He gave us good life.

0:35:49 > 0:35:50How much do you owe him?

0:35:50 > 0:35:52It's for ever.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56Husbands, they are so rich they don't even notice when we steal.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58And if you don't pay?

0:35:58 > 0:36:01SHOUTING AND SOBBING

0:36:02 > 0:36:05How about if you fall in love with someone else?

0:36:05 > 0:36:09We were going to meet under the bridge. That was our place.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12And then take the night train to Paris

0:36:12 > 0:36:16while everyone was celebrating. Ben thought we'd be long gone.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19DISTANT CHEERING

0:36:27 > 0:36:29But Lukas must've found out.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31It must've been one of his men.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- Why? Did you recognise one of them? - No, but it had to be.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35Can you give me a description?

0:36:35 > 0:36:38I had to run away. He'd been told to kill me too.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40OK, Hana, come into the station with me.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42Lukas will kill me!

0:36:42 > 0:36:44- Help me build a photofit. - I can't remember. I try.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46All I see is Ben.

0:36:46 > 0:36:49OK, well, we can help you with that. And we have protection programmes.

0:36:49 > 0:36:51It was Lukas.

0:36:54 > 0:36:55THUD

0:36:55 > 0:36:58SHOUTING

0:37:00 > 0:37:03Turns out your club is more than just a place to find a pretty girl.

0:37:03 > 0:37:07Of course. The members are looking for a life partner.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11It's amongst the most significant decisions they will ever make.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14And how long do the girls have to pay their dues to you?

0:37:14 > 0:37:16I don't understand.

0:37:16 > 0:37:17Are they ever free?

0:37:17 > 0:37:19Have you found Hana?

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Do you know Ben Ransley?

0:37:21 > 0:37:25He was killed on 2nd May 1997. Where were you that night?

0:37:25 > 0:37:27I can't remember.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30But you knew that Hana was going to run away with him.

0:37:30 > 0:37:31No. I don't know this.

0:37:31 > 0:37:32Where were you?

0:37:32 > 0:37:34It was 16 years ago.

0:37:34 > 0:37:38It was pretty memorable. It was the night of the General Election.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40I'll have a look at my diaries.

0:37:40 > 0:37:41You do that.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44I also want details of all your employees at the time.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Girls, bodyguards, henchmen.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48I don't have henchmen.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50What, you beat the girls up yourself, do you?

0:37:50 > 0:37:55During the war, I rescued over 100 people from villages and camps.

0:37:55 > 0:37:56It doesn't make you their owner.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00You didn't see the camps. The West was too busy.

0:38:00 > 0:38:02It was genocide.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04The girls would be dead without me.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08I'm going to stop your scam.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10They love me.

0:38:10 > 0:38:14They marry doctors, lawyers, police.

0:38:17 > 0:38:20All of these people are very good friends of mine.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23Don't you dare threaten me.

0:38:25 > 0:38:30We'll just have to interview everyone who's ever bleedin' worked for him.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33Even if Klasnic ordered the hit, we'll never find the thug who did it, will we?

0:38:33 > 0:38:36- Nah.- Hana's played us. We know she was at the scene.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39She's thrown us Lukas to buy time to plan a proper escape.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41Where does she go now?

0:38:41 > 0:38:44OK, let's think this thing through.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46She's been on the run for 16 years.

0:38:46 > 0:38:49The first time she went to Marta for help, she got a job,

0:38:49 > 0:38:51false documents,

0:38:51 > 0:38:54changed her name to Helen Smith. Feel free to chip in any time(!)

0:38:54 > 0:38:58We're checking all the Helen Smiths in the Hounslow area to find out where she lives.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01- And Marta's under surveillance. - She's not going to go back there again, is she?

0:39:01 > 0:39:04But she does need help and money. Last time she tapped Russell.

0:39:04 > 0:39:07He's still soppy about her and he's loaded.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09Right, you two. Get on him, straightaway.

0:39:09 > 0:39:10What, surveillance?

0:39:10 > 0:39:14- Yeah.- Excuse me. Isn't it about time that Danny had a little go?

0:39:14 > 0:39:15Can't, I'm afraid.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18Boss, this is the final report of the arms committee

0:39:18 > 0:39:19Liz Jackson sat on.

0:39:19 > 0:39:24Now, the industry had been selling guns, tanks, landmines to all sorts

0:39:24 > 0:39:28of unsavoury regimes and this report was looking into tightening export

0:39:28 > 0:39:33criteria and punitive measures for businesses who didn't behave.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35Would've cost them millions if implemented.

0:39:35 > 0:39:37- But they weren't?- No.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40By the time this report came out, the companies had taken

0:39:40 > 0:39:42pre-emptive steps to show they were on their best behaviour.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44What? "No need to regulate us,

0:39:44 > 0:39:46"we're getting our own house in order," kind of shit.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Liz Jackson worked on this report.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51It looks like it was watered down.

0:39:51 > 0:39:55Ben could've sold the inside line to Eddie or anyone else.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Do you know what I most admire about you?

0:40:00 > 0:40:04Is your total commitment for pissing up the wrong tree?

0:40:04 > 0:40:07Have you got any evidence on this? No! I thought not.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10So YOU can take my place on surveillance.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12No, no, no. I like this.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14But it's all supposition.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17Embrace the unexpected, Gerry. You're with me, Dan.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28INDISTINCT CHATTER

0:40:30 > 0:40:33How are we going to reach these voters?

0:40:33 > 0:40:36- The same in Toxteth.- They have a voice. They should be involved.

0:40:36 > 0:40:37Hello, sir.

0:40:40 > 0:40:45We're holding surgeries so if there's any local issues you'd like us to address...

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Miss Jackson, Mr Marshall.

0:40:48 > 0:40:49Ah!

0:40:49 > 0:40:51Detective Superintendent Pullman.

0:40:51 > 0:40:54Did Ben Ransley ever mention a girl called Hana Keranovic?

0:40:54 > 0:40:56They were quite heavily involved.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59Even if he did mention her, we probably didn't pay attention.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01But you'd have noticed if he was selling secrets?

0:41:01 > 0:41:03What on earth are you talking about?

0:41:03 > 0:41:06Trading details of your arms report.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09- He wouldn't.- This is a man's reputation. You can't sling muck.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11- He had 40K offshore. - And I've had a belly full of people

0:41:11 > 0:41:14making lazy accusations about corruption in Westminster.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17- A few bad apples fiddle their expenses...- More than a few.

0:41:17 > 0:41:18Was the report watered down?

0:41:18 > 0:41:21Reports are always changed. It's part of the process.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23There's no conspiracy here.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26What's your opinion of Eddie Trenton?

0:41:26 > 0:41:28Nothing against him personally,

0:41:28 > 0:41:32but lobbyists are the single biggest threat to democracy that we face.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34Because of the way they seek to influence policy?

0:41:34 > 0:41:36Yes, but that didn't happen here.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38Ben DID have access to the arms report.

0:41:38 > 0:41:42- Course, but we'd have noticed... - You didn't notice he was having an affair with Hana.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44The report is an irrelevance.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47It's big business. Theoretically, he could've leaked it.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- Totally out of character. - But Eddie?

0:41:52 > 0:41:56This is well out of order. Danny could've done this.

0:41:56 > 0:41:57Golden bollocks.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00You're a right little ray of sunshine(!)

0:42:00 > 0:42:04Look, I had plans to be somewhere wrapped up nice and warm and furry,

0:42:04 > 0:42:06not sat here doing unwanted overtime.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09Stop grumbling and do something about it.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11I've done 60 hours this week already,

0:42:11 > 0:42:15- and I did the last two Saturdays. - Do you still pay your union dues?

0:42:15 > 0:42:17No, I'm retired.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19Well, until you do, you can stop moaning.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27I want your client list from '96.

0:42:27 > 0:42:28I'll be with you in a minute.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31I'm afraid that's confidential corporate information.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34- Did you represent arms companies? - I'll refer you to my previous answer.

0:42:34 > 0:42:38As you know we're keen to establish how Ben got £40,000 in a secret account.

0:42:38 > 0:42:43- Was it a payment from you? - I'm an expert at exerting influence through legitimate channels.

0:42:43 > 0:42:45Does that mean you did represent arms companies?

0:42:45 > 0:42:48My strategies are highly effective. I've never had to play dirty.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50What about the time you had those Commons passes?

0:42:50 > 0:42:52Now that was a misunderstanding.

0:42:52 > 0:42:56All the same, must have been tempting, having a best friend so close to a significant report.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59As soon as we knew we were compromised, I ceased contact.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01But the report was leaked to the arms companies.

0:43:01 > 0:43:02I have never worked with arms!

0:43:02 > 0:43:06There are plenty of companies that do and ten other MPs on the committees.

0:43:06 > 0:43:10Now, if you think the report was skewed,

0:43:10 > 0:43:14I'm sure there are no end of doors you can go and knock on.

0:43:14 > 0:43:17It had nothing to do with Ben or me.

0:43:20 > 0:43:21'Governor?'

0:43:21 > 0:43:23Eddie is hiding behind client confidentiality.

0:43:23 > 0:43:25'Has anyone checked his alibi?'

0:43:25 > 0:43:28He was with some girlfriend at a hotel.

0:43:28 > 0:43:30OK, well, let's see what she has to say now.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32What's happening your end?

0:43:32 > 0:43:37Nothing. He left his office at six, went to a local Chinese, came back to his office

0:43:37 > 0:43:41and now he's up there all alone with his precision tools.

0:43:41 > 0:43:45- 'Hang on in there, I'm sending over the next shift in four hours.' - Four?!

0:43:45 > 0:43:48If Hana doesn't show up, we'll bring Russell in tomorrow.

0:44:04 > 0:44:06- Gerry.- Hm?

0:44:10 > 0:44:14- Bit late for a delivery, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:44:24 > 0:44:26Hey! Oi!

0:44:31 > 0:44:32Gerry!

0:44:34 > 0:44:36Shit.

0:44:41 > 0:44:42Thank you.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47The doctors have induced a coma, but it's too early to say

0:44:47 > 0:44:51- if he'll come around. - Do you think he knows who killed Ben? Would this have been Lukas?

0:44:51 > 0:44:54Whoever it is may try again so make sure no-one gets access.

0:44:54 > 0:44:56Boss, this is a sideshow.

0:44:56 > 0:44:59Lukas attacked him because he spoke out of turn,

0:44:59 > 0:45:02because he brought us to his door. He won't come back.

0:45:02 > 0:45:05We should concentrate on the report, Eddie and the Jersey account.

0:45:05 > 0:45:06Well, Trenton's alibi stands up.

0:45:06 > 0:45:09His former girlfriend is sticking by her statement.

0:45:09 > 0:45:12She says she was in a hotel with him in Surrey that night.

0:45:12 > 0:45:14He could be paying her off. Have you spoken to the hotel?

0:45:14 > 0:45:17Yeah, he definitely booked in and when he left he paid by credit card.

0:45:17 > 0:45:19He's a clever man. He knows how to cover his tracks.

0:45:19 > 0:45:23- What? Then he skips back to London and kills his best friend? - Yeah. It's a possibility.

0:45:23 > 0:45:27Check motorway CCTV, and have another look at the election night footage.

0:45:27 > 0:45:29See if he shows up there.

0:46:05 > 0:46:06- Hi.- Hi.

0:46:14 > 0:46:16(Shit.)

0:46:24 > 0:46:26Time for you to come in, Hana.

0:46:29 > 0:46:31Will Peter be all right?

0:46:33 > 0:46:34We hope so.

0:46:38 > 0:46:42I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

0:46:48 > 0:46:53FOOTAGE MUTED

0:47:06 > 0:47:08DOOR OPENS

0:47:08 > 0:47:10Is Lukas arrested?

0:47:12 > 0:47:13He didn't do it.

0:47:13 > 0:47:16You're scared of him too!

0:47:18 > 0:47:21I want you to tell me what you saw that night.

0:47:21 > 0:47:26It was a big risk for me to help you, and you done nothing.

0:47:26 > 0:47:29And now I need you to help me again. Tell me what you saw.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32It was Lukas! It was Lukas!

0:47:32 > 0:47:34God!

0:47:34 > 0:47:38Hana, look, I do understand why you won't trust anyone, I do.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42But if that's all you're going to say

0:47:42 > 0:47:44then I guess we'll never have justice for Ben.

0:47:44 > 0:47:47You say you're not going to help me.

0:47:47 > 0:47:51Well, I'm certainly not going to stop you, so you're free to go.

0:47:51 > 0:47:53No offence, pal, but she's losing it.

0:47:54 > 0:47:59Nah. She's an only child. Got a strange sense of humour.

0:48:22 > 0:48:24I lost my father when I was 14.

0:48:24 > 0:48:27It shaped my life.

0:48:29 > 0:48:32I can't begin to imagine what you've been through.

0:48:32 > 0:48:36But I really need you to give me a description of the man.

0:48:36 > 0:48:40Hair, size, clothes. Anything.

0:48:42 > 0:48:44All right. OK.

0:48:44 > 0:48:47Can you at least tell me if Ben

0:48:47 > 0:48:51ever mentioned doing work for arms companies?

0:48:52 > 0:48:54He never talked about his job.

0:48:54 > 0:48:58Wouldn't even introduce me to his friends.

0:48:58 > 0:49:02So you never met Marshall or Liz Jackson?

0:49:02 > 0:49:04Or Eddie or anyone.

0:49:04 > 0:49:06To be safe, we kept secret.

0:49:07 > 0:49:11What about the bank account in Jersey? There's a lot of money in it.

0:49:13 > 0:49:15Ben was always worrying about money.

0:49:16 > 0:49:18To me, it didn't matter

0:49:18 > 0:49:23but, yeah, Ben wanted enough money to go away.

0:49:25 > 0:49:29But he never told you where he got it from or where it was?

0:49:30 > 0:49:35I remember he was always travelling for work.

0:49:35 > 0:49:39Nottingham, Blackpool, Jersey.

0:49:39 > 0:49:42He went to Jersey with work?

0:49:42 > 0:49:43I suppose, yeah.

0:49:43 > 0:49:46Ask Marshall. He went with him.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49Marshall? Not Eddie?

0:49:50 > 0:49:51Eddie?

0:49:52 > 0:49:55Do you think Eddie killed Ben?

0:49:57 > 0:49:59Ben is his best friend.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01Let's go back to that night.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04You were meeting with Ben and then you were going to run away.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06Why the bridge?

0:50:09 > 0:50:13It's... It's where we had our first kiss.

0:50:16 > 0:50:19I was so happy.

0:50:21 > 0:50:23I was free.

0:50:29 > 0:50:31But then...

0:50:35 > 0:50:36..I see the man.

0:50:41 > 0:50:43He was over Ben.

0:50:45 > 0:50:49His shirt was ripped and there was blood.

0:50:51 > 0:50:53He saw me...

0:50:54 > 0:50:59..and I thought, "He's going to kill me," so...I ran away.

0:51:02 > 0:51:06I can't remember. I want to remember.

0:51:08 > 0:51:10All I see is Ben lying there.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20There was something red.

0:51:23 > 0:51:25There was something red.

0:51:29 > 0:51:32..went round the back, came onto the podium and he wasn't wearing any.

0:51:32 > 0:51:35THEY LAUGH

0:51:35 > 0:51:37Another one?

0:51:38 > 0:51:39Thank God you're here.

0:51:39 > 0:51:43This mob have had me cornered that long, I'm growing a beard.

0:51:43 > 0:51:46- Price of popularity. Just a few questions.- Happy to help. Can I get you a drink?

0:51:46 > 0:51:49When did you go to Jersey with Ben?

0:51:49 > 0:51:50Jersey? We travelled a lot.

0:51:50 > 0:51:54This'll be the trip where you put £40,000 into his offshore account. Ring any bells?

0:51:54 > 0:51:56You've lost me.

0:51:56 > 0:51:58Perhaps you'll remember this lady.

0:52:04 > 0:52:07You've arrested me on the word of a prostitute

0:52:07 > 0:52:09who's been on the run for 16 years?

0:52:09 > 0:52:11Why didn't you tell us about your trip to Jersey with Ben?

0:52:11 > 0:52:14Who said I went to Jersey?

0:52:14 > 0:52:18Don't worry. We'll have a look at your bank accounts, diaries,

0:52:18 > 0:52:19passenger manifests.

0:52:19 > 0:52:21I can't take this seriously.

0:52:21 > 0:52:24You were taking money from arms companies.

0:52:24 > 0:52:28Ben found out and you tried to buy him off in Jersey with £40,000. Then what?

0:52:28 > 0:52:32You'd best bloody know what you're doing here, Detective. Thin ice.

0:52:32 > 0:52:36We have footage from the town hall. You were there all night.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38Very prominent.

0:52:38 > 0:52:41Until the time you disappear - around the time of Ben's death.

0:52:42 > 0:52:44Where were you?

0:52:44 > 0:52:49You're asking me to account for my movements at a party 16 years ago?

0:52:49 > 0:52:52I'll help you piece it together, shall I?

0:52:52 > 0:52:55That night, Ben threatened you in some way. He was going to report you

0:52:55 > 0:52:58to the party or to the papers - either way, your career's finished.

0:52:58 > 0:53:00- Tell me if I'm getting warm. - This is ridiculous.

0:53:00 > 0:53:03Ben was killed under Westminster Bridge, five minutes from the hall.

0:53:03 > 0:53:06Easy for you to get there and back without being noticed.

0:53:06 > 0:53:08Except you were noticed,

0:53:08 > 0:53:11cos we have a witness who saw you under the bridge.

0:53:11 > 0:53:14Oh. Here you are again, back at the town hall.

0:53:14 > 0:53:17You're in a different shirt.

0:53:17 > 0:53:20I don't think you two know who you're dealing with.

0:53:20 > 0:53:21He was like a son to you.

0:53:21 > 0:53:24What was it like being covered in his blood?

0:53:24 > 0:53:27That's enough! You're bang out of order!

0:53:37 > 0:53:40We know you did it, Jim. And the moment we start looking

0:53:40 > 0:53:43at all this in detail, the rest will just fall into place.

0:53:43 > 0:53:45It always does with this sort of crime.

0:53:45 > 0:53:49You didn't know you were going to kill him, did you? It was heat of the moment.

0:53:49 > 0:53:51So you will have left a trail.

0:53:52 > 0:53:56Come on, Jim. You've been carrying the guilt around for years.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58Set yourself free.

0:54:05 > 0:54:09He was happy enough to take my money in Jersey.

0:54:09 > 0:54:13But then he changed his tune, he got all sanctimonious.

0:54:13 > 0:54:17Tell them tomorrow morning everything you've done or I'll tell them for you.

0:54:17 > 0:54:20It's all part of the world we're in. I haven't done nothing wrong.

0:54:20 > 0:54:25I tried to talk to him seriously about politics, but he didn't understand.

0:54:27 > 0:54:30- Ben! - I've said what I'm going to say.

0:54:30 > 0:54:34- Listen. You're stupid, you'll regret what you're doing... - I want to make a fresh start.

0:54:34 > 0:54:37We've been out of power for 18 years! We lost four elections!

0:54:37 > 0:54:39Our time has come. I wanted to be part of it.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41- Yeah, well, I don't.- Don't you?!

0:55:03 > 0:55:06I didn't mean to hurt him.

0:55:25 > 0:55:27She's here.

0:55:32 > 0:55:34Hello, Orla.

0:55:34 > 0:55:35I'm Hana.

0:55:37 > 0:55:39I loved your son.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44This is our child.

0:55:44 > 0:55:47He is called Ben. I hope you don't mind.

0:55:54 > 0:55:56SHE SPEAKS IN DIALECT

0:55:56 > 0:55:58- Hi.- Hi.

0:56:02 > 0:56:04SHE SOBS

0:56:13 > 0:56:16So this villain's hanging in midair, right, on this rope

0:56:16 > 0:56:19that is made out of sheets and towels and all that.

0:56:19 > 0:56:21And there he his with his meat and two veg

0:56:21 > 0:56:25flapping about all over the place for the world to see, and I shout up to him, I go, "Oi!"

0:56:25 > 0:56:28- BOTH:- "You won't get much swag in that sack."

0:56:28 > 0:56:30Oh, you've heard it?

0:56:30 > 0:56:32The charm is in its repetition, Gerry.

0:56:32 > 0:56:36Everybody, this is Max Clement. Sandra you know and...

0:56:36 > 0:56:40- Gerry Standing.- Hi, Steve McAndrew. - Danny Griffin.

0:56:40 > 0:56:42Hi, nice to meet you. So, you got a result?

0:56:42 > 0:56:44Oh, we always get a result.

0:56:44 > 0:56:46That's what I heard. Crack unit.

0:56:46 > 0:56:49Oh, it's nothing to do with us. I blame the management!

0:56:49 > 0:56:52- Was Eddie Trenton involved? - Not with the arms report. No, he's clean.

0:56:52 > 0:56:55Oh, good, because I've got a friend with a daughter

0:56:55 > 0:56:58doing an internship there. Wouldn't want her to keep bad company.

0:56:58 > 0:57:00Glad we could be of assistance.

0:57:00 > 0:57:01Sandra, Max wants a word.

0:57:01 > 0:57:06Yeah, thank you. I wanted to ask you if I could talk to your witness, Hana.

0:57:06 > 0:57:09We're still investigating the massacre at Kozarac.

0:57:09 > 0:57:11Her testimony could be significant.

0:57:11 > 0:57:14Well, I'll speak to her and see if she's willing to be interviewed.

0:57:14 > 0:57:16I'd appreciate that.

0:57:22 > 0:57:25Um, why don't you stick around? We're going for something to eat.

0:57:25 > 0:57:27Yeah. Danny's going to break the padlock on his wallet

0:57:27 > 0:57:30or face a data protection charge. You don't want to miss that.

0:57:30 > 0:57:32- If you don't mind? Where are we going?- The Bombay Bhuna.

0:57:32 > 0:57:36- Why don't we try somewhere different?- Like what?

0:57:36 > 0:57:39- A kebab?- A kebab?! No!

0:57:39 > 0:57:43We know what we like and we like what we know.

0:57:43 > 0:57:46Listen, I doubt if you can get a good jalfrezi where you come from.

0:57:46 > 0:57:48A what?

0:57:48 > 0:57:51It's a traditional English dish.
