0:00:02 > 0:00:04# It's all right, it's OK

0:00:04 > 0:00:06# Doesn't really matter if you're old and grey

0:00:06 > 0:00:08# It's all right, it's OK

0:00:08 > 0:00:11# Listen to what I say

0:00:11 > 0:00:13# It's all right, doing fine

0:00:13 > 0:00:16# Doesn't really matter if the sun don't shine

0:00:16 > 0:00:19# It's all right, it's OK

0:00:19 > 0:00:21# We're getting to the end of the day. #

0:00:24 > 0:00:28- Oh!- I thought you were the golfer? - So did I.

0:00:29 > 0:00:33- Go on, then.- OK.- A really difficult green to read.

0:00:33 > 0:00:34I know. Don't you worry.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36- Here we go.- Morning.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38- Oh, morning, sir. - What are you two doing?

0:00:38 > 0:00:39Final hole at the Open.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42- Where's Brian? - Oh, Esther rang in.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44- She said he's got very bad flu, apparently.- Right.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- Glasgow have been in touch.- Oh?

0:00:46 > 0:00:49- They're setting up their own cold case review section.- Like this one?

0:00:49 > 0:00:52I doubt it will ever be quite like this one, no.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54They're asking if Mr McAndrew would return

0:00:54 > 0:00:56- to his native city, temporarily. - Nice one.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Along with a more experienced UCOS officer to help them

0:00:59 > 0:01:00with their formative process.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04- You're not talking about me? - Well, who else is it going to be?

0:01:04 > 0:01:07- Well, how long is it? - About seven days or so, apparently.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11A week! In Glasgow? Well, I've got to clear this with Sandra.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13It's already been cleared with DCI Pullman and myself.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Your contact will be a DCI MacDougall.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19You're expected tomorrow morning at nine.

0:01:19 > 0:01:20- Tomorrow?- Nine?

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- That's a seven-hour drive, sir. - Yeah, well, don't be late.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Well, we're not taking my car.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28You're damn right. We're not driving to Glasgow in that bone shaker.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32A week of deep-fried pizza, Irn Bru and haggis.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33I can't bleeding wait.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41- You got your passport? - Ha ha ha(!)

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Have you actually ever been to Scotland?

0:01:45 > 0:01:49Once. 1973. England 5, Scotland 0.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53- Can't remember the rest.- Why not?- I was pissed.

0:01:54 > 0:01:58Anyway, what I don't get is why they're dragging us

0:01:58 > 0:02:00up here to set up a Scottish UCOS.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03I reckon there is more to this than meets the eye.

0:02:03 > 0:02:04Do you, now?

0:02:17 > 0:02:18Home sweet home.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25- I can't be arsed with that drive any more.- Blimey!

0:02:27 > 0:02:28This is smashing, isn't it?

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Yeah. Come and have a drink.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34- Malt?- Anything large.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39This is fantastic, isn't it?

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Do you know how much this would cost you in the Smoke?

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Yeah, tell me about it.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Ah, the lovely Charley.- Yeah. - Am I going to get to meet her?

0:02:47 > 0:02:49If you behave yourself.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51I should be seeing her myself tonight, but she's on a course.

0:02:51 > 0:02:57- Cheers. But you live together, yeah? - No, she does her own thing.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01I go to her place, she comes to mine. It's cool.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Excellent.

0:03:03 > 0:03:05- Cor, that's nice.- Mmm.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07That is good.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09Well, I don't know about you, but I'm knackered,

0:03:09 > 0:03:10and you did all the driving.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Yeah, come on, I'll show you your room.- Cheers.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Charley's been in and made the bed and everything.

0:03:16 > 0:03:17Smashing.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Oh, hey, have a look at this.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25- If you fancy a change of mood.- Good God!

0:03:25 > 0:03:28Listen, I didn't have that put in, it was here when I bought the place.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Are you sure?- Yeah, yeah, promise.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33OK, Gerry, sleep well. I'll wake you up at seven in the morning, OK?

0:03:33 > 0:03:35- Cheers, mate.- Night-night.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Oh.- What a state!- Oh, no.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Come on, there's porridge on the go. - Porridge?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Or there's smoked salmon, scrambled eggs, waffles,

0:03:51 > 0:03:53blueberry muffins, toasted brioche, coffee,

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- orange juice - that kind of stuff. - All right, all right.- Let's boogie!

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Boogie? My legs have gone.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19- Hi. DCI Fiona MacDougall. - Steve McAndrew.- Gerry Standing.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22- Thanks for coming up at such short notice.- Not at all.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26I have to say, I'm a huge fan of what you guys do.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28- Everyone's very excited. - Glad we can be of help.

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I'm really looking forward to it.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33There are still one or two doubters but I'm sure after your talk,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35Gerry, they'll be total converts.

0:04:35 > 0:04:37Come again?

0:04:37 > 0:04:40The history of UCOS in the Met?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42I've managed to get most of CID free this morning.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Is it a PowerPoint presentation

0:04:44 > 0:04:46or do you prefer just to extemporise?

0:04:48 > 0:04:50You, em...

0:04:51 > 0:04:55..you rationalise the nature of the crime, you and

0:04:55 > 0:04:58your colleagues - it's a team.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03And utilising the technology available to us.

0:05:03 > 0:05:07And...you must...you can't anymore ignore the technology.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11You know, DNA profiling, you've now

0:05:11 > 0:05:15- got the forces linked by HOLMES 2...- Celtic 3.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22Actually...

0:05:23 > 0:05:25..you can have all the forensic

0:05:25 > 0:05:29techno-gizmo-trickery in the world, but if you're just some clever,

0:05:29 > 0:05:33smart-arse cop who doesn't give a toss - then it's pointless.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Are you good enough?

0:05:39 > 0:05:43Because without heart, care, good old-fashioned know-how...

0:05:44 > 0:05:48..experience and intuition...

0:05:48 > 0:05:49you're no kind of cop anyway.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57And I'll tell you something else...

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Cheers. Thanks a lot.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02- Thank you.- Thanks.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Thank you.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08That was just what I wanted to hear and what a lot of them needed to.

0:06:08 > 0:06:09I'm impressed.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Me too. I didn't think he could even spell extemporise.

0:06:13 > 0:06:18Listen, this is really embarrassing but there's been a bit of a mix-up.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Originally we'd scheduled a selection

0:06:20 > 0:06:23process for Glasgow UCOS starting today.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26The idea being that you would help interview the applicants -

0:06:26 > 0:06:29but it's now been postponed, I'm afraid.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30Until when?

0:06:31 > 0:06:35Next week. Wednesday. I know. I can only apologise.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38No, no, no. We were told seven days.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40Yes. I realise that.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44Without the personnel, Gerry and I can't do anything for you up here.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47Look, we're not officially up and running, but...

0:06:49 > 0:06:50..there is something.

0:06:50 > 0:06:55It's come out of a long-running review process. An open case.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58But it's rather awkward. It's a murder from a long time ago.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00I was here a long time ago.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02James Soutar? Bookmaker?

0:07:02 > 0:07:05He was beaten to death near the bus station.

0:07:05 > 0:07:091993. No clues or suspects. Weapon never found.

0:07:10 > 0:07:11So why's it awkward?

0:07:11 > 0:07:15Well, some time ago a decision was made to re-examine all

0:07:15 > 0:07:20serious crime investigations led by CID officers who were later

0:07:20 > 0:07:24found or believed to have been corrupt.

0:07:24 > 0:07:25It's very delicate.

0:07:27 > 0:07:28This is good.

0:07:28 > 0:07:33Very good. Murder of a bookie? I like a bet.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36At the same time that Steve was still on the force.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Then up the ante with a bit of mystery?

0:07:38 > 0:07:40When did you work all this out?

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- I'm sorry?- This is the real reason we're here.- No.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Course it is.

0:07:45 > 0:07:49You wangled us up to Glasgow to work on this awkward case on purpose.

0:07:49 > 0:07:53Then if it all goes tits-up her new team doesn't lose any cred,

0:07:53 > 0:07:55- and you come out of it whiter than white.- No.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58The officer who led the original investigation was never

0:07:58 > 0:07:59officially charged.

0:07:59 > 0:08:04That's why any investigation now has to be unofficial and very hush-hush.

0:08:04 > 0:08:05You'll have to do better than that.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09OK.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11How about I want you to work this case

0:08:11 > 0:08:14because the investigation was led by Frank McNair.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17Where's the file?

0:08:19 > 0:08:22McNair was more interested in Soutar's sexual proclivities.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Because?

0:08:23 > 0:08:27Where he was murdered - the bus station - it's a pick-up area.

0:08:27 > 0:08:32Soutar was single. No kids. Cue lots of stuff about gay-bashing.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Or a row with a prostitute over money that went terminal.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38The money, what happened to it? Did he leave a will?

0:08:38 > 0:08:40£3,000,000.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Which mostly went to various children's charities.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44You said mostly.

0:08:44 > 0:08:48He also left fifteen grand to a 16-year-old girl in care.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53Catherine Sinclair. No relation. She'd never even heard of him.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57You know McNair, don't you. What's the deal?

0:08:58 > 0:09:00He shagged my wife. Ex-wife.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04I punched him out. Got suspended for two months.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06In the mean time, Tricia took off and took Stewart with her.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08Stewart's my son.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10She got custody.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Where are they now?- I don't know.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14I haven't seen either of them in nine years.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Where are you actually taking us? - Where do you think?

0:09:17 > 0:09:21No, no, no! Listen, I told you this was all dodgy.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25Now, all you can see is McNair. All I see is MacDougall.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Now, if I'm right about her, she wants UCOS to fail.

0:09:29 > 0:09:30No. She wants us to fail.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34I mean you have no idea about the amount of crap UCOS

0:09:34 > 0:09:36got in the early days.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39I mean at first everyone said, "Oh, yeah, what a great idea."

0:09:39 > 0:09:42But then they realised we were working just a bit too well.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45We were showing up ex-coppers for what they actually were -

0:09:45 > 0:09:49slovenly, disinterested and in some cases, downright bent.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52The best thing we can do is prove the naysayers wrong.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56- Naysayers?- Solve the case. And do that by starting with McNair.- No.

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Listen, if I'm going to be forced to stay in this

0:09:58 > 0:10:01place for another seven bleeding days, I'm not going to waste my time

0:10:01 > 0:10:04watching you make a prat of yourself.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05We do this by the book.

0:10:08 > 0:10:09What you laughing at?

0:10:11 > 0:10:12You sound just like Sandra.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28Blimey.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32- So who's this bloke we've come to see?- Ex-Procurator Fiscal.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Why do you Jocks have such dopey names for things?

0:10:35 > 0:10:40Because Scotland is a nation with its own unique identity and a 2,000 year-history

0:10:40 > 0:10:42of separate laws, customs and education.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45Or we just don't want you English tossers to know what we're

0:10:45 > 0:10:46talking about.

0:10:47 > 0:10:49Mr Ogilvy? You have some visitors.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Mr Ogilvy? Colin Ogilvy? I'm Steve McAndrew.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56This is Gerry Standing.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59We're working for Glasgow CID on an unsolved murder from 19 years ago.

0:10:59 > 0:11:00Really?

0:11:00 > 0:11:03A former bookie named James Soutar.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05You were Procurator Fiscal at the time.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06Soutar?

0:11:09 > 0:11:10Was he from Stirling?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12No, no, no. Glasgow.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15It was a Glaswegian bookie. He gave a lot of money to charity.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Excellent. That is good of him.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22The officer in charge was a DI called Frank McNair.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Do you remember him discussing the case with you?

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Bookmaker?

0:11:27 > 0:11:29Have I won something?

0:11:31 > 0:11:33No. No you haven't, I'm afraid.

0:11:33 > 0:11:38No, no, I don't think I could have done.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39I don't bet.

0:11:42 > 0:11:47Right, well, thanks for your time, Mr Ogilvy, you've been most helpful.

0:11:53 > 0:11:54Deep-fried pizza?

0:11:55 > 0:11:56I don't think so.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01- Thank you.- Fabulous.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04Anna? Make sure these flowers don't

0:12:04 > 0:12:06get in the way of the bride and groom.

0:12:06 > 0:12:07Guests need to see them. Yeah?

0:12:09 > 0:12:12Catherine Morton? Catherine Sinclair as was?

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Not for a long time.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16I'm Steve McAndrew - this is Gerry Standing.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19We're re-investigating the murder of James Soutar.

0:12:21 > 0:12:22Are you all right?

0:12:25 > 0:12:27My God! Yes, yes, I will be in a minute.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30- Soutar?- Yes.

0:12:36 > 0:12:38The money from Soutar?

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- It completely changed my life. - How exactly?

0:12:41 > 0:12:43I was heading the wrong way.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48Then someone somewhere finds something worthwhile in me.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52It totally changed the way I thought about myself.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55I felt I had to justify what he left me - not waste it.

0:12:55 > 0:12:56And it led to all this?

0:12:58 > 0:13:01It was a long process. I started working on the markets,

0:13:01 > 0:13:04then I ran a couple of restaurants for guys.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07I managed to save enough money so I could get my own place.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09I seemed to have the knack of knowing what

0:13:09 > 0:13:11and where the right place was.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12So...

0:13:13 > 0:13:15- I was, still am, lucky.- Nah.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Sounds like good old-fashioned hard work to me.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20- You never met Soutar? - Never.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24- Not related in any way? - No. My dad ran off when I was two.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25Soutar couldn't be your dad?

0:13:25 > 0:13:28Not unless his middle name was Luigi. My dad was from Naples.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30You've no idea why he left you that money?

0:13:30 > 0:13:33No. I tried. Even hired a PI.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Cathy, there's a phone call for you.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Look, I'm sorry.

0:13:37 > 0:13:42All I know is that if he hadn't I wouldn't be here now.

0:13:42 > 0:13:43I owe him everything.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49- Well, thanks for your time.- OK. Thanks.- Thanks very much.- OK.

0:13:52 > 0:13:55- What do you think? - Well, she seemed straight to me.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57But why'd he leave her that money?

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Well, Soutar was bought up in care, wasn't he?

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Maybe he wanted to find someone and make it personal. I mean,

0:14:05 > 0:14:09if you think about it, his and her journey are the same.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Orphan. Care.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13Work your way up and then make a big success of it all.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15She had a fifteen grand start on him.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Well, she hasn't made a bad deal of it, has she?

0:14:18 > 0:14:20OK, who's next?

0:14:20 > 0:14:22McNair.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25Yeah, all right.

0:14:26 > 0:14:31- So McNair is secretary of this golf club, eh?- Yup.

0:14:32 > 0:14:33Cushy little number.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58- Hi, Gerry Standing. - McNair, Frank.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02- And Steve McAndrew you know. - Yeah, we're working for Glasgow CID.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04- Helping set-up an Unsolved Crime unit.- Uh-huh.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07The result of that is we're re-investigating

0:15:07 > 0:15:09the death of James Soutar back in 1993.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11You mean murder.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14And as you led the murder team, do you mind

0:15:14 > 0:15:16- if we ask a few questions about the case?- Be my guest.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19You said the most likely motive was sexual.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21How did you come to that?

0:15:21 > 0:15:23If you've read the case file you know why.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26- You have read the file? - It was a long time ago.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29Just wondered if you had any fresh thoughts on the case, that's all.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32I'm not the kind of guy who dwells on things that happened in the past.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36I thought sexual because of where he died.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38It pointed to a particular type of individual.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42The sort who doesn't have anyone. Loved ones, family, friends.

0:15:43 > 0:15:44Pretty sad.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50What about Cathy Sinclair? The girl he left a load of money to.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Nothing. I reckoned he pulled her name out of a lucky-bag.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00So why are you looking into this now? Seems odd.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04We've heard rumours that Soutar had special clients. High rollers.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Important people who...

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Cut the crap. You're not interested in Soutar.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Only reason you're here is so he can find out where his wife is.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15- Guess what? I don't know.- You don't know...?- Thank you.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18Thank you. We'll be in touch.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23I could bloody kill him.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26We spooked him. That's why he threw that grenade at you.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29As soon as I mentioned bets and special clients,

0:16:29 > 0:16:32he went all shaky, that's why he mentioned your wife.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Do you mind if we just call it a day, Gerry?

0:16:34 > 0:16:37- No, no. I could murder a pint. - No, actually, it's just

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Charley's back and I haven't seen her in over a month.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42- Hear, hear. Good boy. You rock on. - Look, I'll drop you in town.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Terrific.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Will you be all right on your own? - Course I will.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40- So what about London? Any joy? - No. Nothing.

0:17:40 > 0:17:44I tried different organisations and places, but...

0:17:44 > 0:17:48I think she will have changed her name, kept on the move, you know?

0:17:48 > 0:17:51You know it's got nothing to do with her.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54When I think about her now I have absolutely no feelings.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Steve, I know.

0:17:58 > 0:17:59I understand.

0:18:01 > 0:18:02He's your son.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04PHONE VIBRATES

0:18:05 > 0:18:06Gerry.

0:18:09 > 0:18:10He's been arrested.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15I was not procuring! I was checking the crime scene!

0:18:15 > 0:18:18I mean, I was talking to prostitutes, yeah, but only about the case.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Of course you were. Hi, darling.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Gerry, this is Charley. Charley, Gerry.- Hiya.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28No wonder he wouldn't let me meet you.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I was beginning to wonder.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Look, I'm terribly sorry if I ruined your evening.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Oh, no, no, no. Come on, I'll drive us back.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41All I'm saying is, why is McNair so keen to push the gay angle?

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Yet so dismissive of the money angle?

0:18:43 > 0:18:44Thanks, darling.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47Charley, I'm sorry to talk shop all the time.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49- I must bore you to death. - It's OK. I'm used to it.

0:18:49 > 0:18:53Charley's in forensics. It's how we met - over a cadaver.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56Liver at first sight, eh, darling?

0:18:56 > 0:18:58Talking of which, how was your dinner?

0:18:58 > 0:19:00We didn't get that far.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Oh, I'm really sorry.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06It's all right. No need to apologise.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12You know while I was in the cell all I kept thinking was, "Why would

0:19:12 > 0:19:14"anyone give Cathy Sinclair all that money?

0:19:14 > 0:19:17- "Someone they didn't even know." - There's something about that...

0:19:17 > 0:19:18- Listen.- What?

0:19:18 > 0:19:20It's obvious you need to talk.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23I need to be up early for work. I'll just leave you to it.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28- All right, darling. Sorry, Charley. - It's all right.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Tomorrow, OK?- Yeah.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- Speak to you in the morning.- Nice to meet you, Gerry.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35And you too, Charley. Sorry.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41A whole month.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Thanks.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46I'll get the whisky.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Oh.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Congratulations, you made it into the bed this time.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Where we off to?

0:19:57 > 0:19:59See Helen Wray - Head of Social Services.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04- Gerry?- Where you going?- On the underground.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05The underground?

0:20:05 > 0:20:08You didn't know Glasgow has an underground?

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I was surprised by the electric lights.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15- James Soutar? - Yeah, he was a bookmaker.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18He left half a million pounds to the city council's care homes.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21I must admit, I'd have thought I'd remember that.

0:20:21 > 0:20:231993. He was reasonably well-known.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Well, I don't bet.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27My father did and it put me off for ever.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31To be honest, I have a vague memory of him.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34OK, do you remember Cathy Sinclair?

0:20:34 > 0:20:35She was brought up in care

0:20:35 > 0:20:38- and Soutar left her £15,000. - Really?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42No?

0:20:42 > 0:20:45You were Head of Child Welfare at the time. I thought you might

0:20:45 > 0:20:48remember a girl in care who'd been left a small fortune.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51My responsibilities didn't extend to care homes as such.

0:20:53 > 0:20:57Hang on - isn't this Cathy Morton who now runs the restaurants?

0:20:57 > 0:21:00Yeah, but she was born Cathy Sinclair.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06Yes. I do remember. The money! 15,000?

0:21:06 > 0:21:08That was extraordinary. Very unusual.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11Can you think of any reason someone like Soutar would take

0:21:11 > 0:21:13an interest in a girl like this he had no relationship to?

0:21:13 > 0:21:17All I can think is that it was this man's way of repaying his

0:21:17 > 0:21:19gratitude to the care system that helped him.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Helen, do you think we could have a look at Catherine Sinclair

0:21:24 > 0:21:26and James Soutar's care records?

0:21:26 > 0:21:28They are confidential.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30I appreciate that. But this is a murder enquiry.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Yes, of course.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36As long as you don't mind one of my people being there?

0:21:40 > 0:21:43According to this, Cathy Sinclair was a right handful.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Drink, drugs, under-age sex.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49Half the teenage population? Ah, here we are!

0:21:49 > 0:21:51James Alistair Soutar.

0:21:51 > 0:21:56Born Paisley, September 1939.

0:21:56 > 0:22:02Both parents killed in the Clydebank bombing raid. No other relatives.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Went into care in 1941.

0:22:06 > 0:22:09Left care at 16.

0:22:10 > 0:22:12That's it.

0:22:12 > 0:22:14That's it here. Nothing.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16Yeah, same here.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Bugger it.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20Well, that wasn't much help, was it?

0:22:20 > 0:22:23Including Miss Helen Wray.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26I can't help thinking it's something to do with Soutar being in care,

0:22:26 > 0:22:28you know?

0:22:28 > 0:22:30Gerry, you haven't said a word since we left that place.

0:22:30 > 0:22:31What's up?

0:22:31 > 0:22:35Don't make it obvious, but over my left shoulder...

0:22:35 > 0:22:37BMW? Tinted windows?

0:22:37 > 0:22:38Yep, I saw it yesterday.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40- You got a number?- No.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- Someone's already too interested in what we're doing.- McNair?

0:22:45 > 0:22:47PHONE RINGS Don't know.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Listen, I think we should split up.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52At least then one of us won't have him up our jacksie.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Roy Fraser. My old DCC. I let him know we were coming up.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58He was senior detective at the time, I thought he'd have a view.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Plus, he's a top guy.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03I thought you said all DCCs were bastards?

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Roy's the exception that proves the rule.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08- Right, I'll go and see MacDougall. - Thought you didn't trust her?

0:23:08 > 0:23:11I don't - that's why I want to keep her onside.

0:23:12 > 0:23:13I'll see you later.

0:23:21 > 0:23:22KNOCK ON DOOR

0:23:24 > 0:23:25Hello, Gerry.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28I heard you got into a spot of bother last night.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30You brought us up here to make sure we failed.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33To prove UCOS doesn't work.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Don't be ridiculous. - Then why are we being followed?

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Gerry, this case has the highest priority.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43No-one, wants a Glasgow UCOS to fail, least of all me.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45If you're being followed,

0:23:45 > 0:23:50well, somebody's not happy about what you're doing.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51Which means you're on the ball.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54So what have you got?

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Nothing. So far. But it's early days.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59I find that hard to believe.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Yeah, well, you're new to the job.

0:24:02 > 0:24:03What's all this?

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Local papers from around the time of the murder.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09- I'm just trying to see if anything...- Stacks up?

0:24:11 > 0:24:13Very droll.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18Those I've done. Those I haven't.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22And seeing as I'm new to the job, I'm very busy.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24Thanks very much.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28The original investigation was headed up by Frank McNair.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34- McNair?- Yeah. Bent copper, jumped before he was pushed.

0:24:34 > 0:24:39Oh, McNair! Aye, bent is right. He was one big bad apple.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41How far back? As far as '93?

0:24:41 > 0:24:44McNair was into money, but covering up a murder?

0:24:44 > 0:24:48Or at least making sure an investigation went nowhere?

0:24:48 > 0:24:50That's a much bigger deal.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Unless there was a lot of cash in it for him, I can't see it.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56What if he was paid to make sure there was no result?

0:24:56 > 0:24:57It's possible.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00But that's a hell of a risk - not least to your pension.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06Gerry? Is Steve not with you?

0:25:07 > 0:25:11No. I need to talk to you.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13Steve and I were at Social Services.

0:25:13 > 0:25:18They let us look through the records archive. I found this.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Bunch of kids on a day out. Looks like the zoo to me.

0:25:24 > 0:25:28Last night, when Steve and I were talking about Cathy Sinclair,

0:25:28 > 0:25:29you didn't say a word.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33But there you are and there she is.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36You knew her.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38No.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40But you are on the same trip together.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43There were a lot of us. From three or four places.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Places?

0:25:46 > 0:25:48Were you bought up in care?

0:25:52 > 0:25:56Steve doesn't know, does he? You haven't told him.

0:25:56 > 0:26:01What? That when I went into care...I did lots of things

0:26:01 > 0:26:02that I'm ashamed about?

0:26:03 > 0:26:04No - I haven't told him.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10When I met Steve, he was still reeling from his wife

0:26:10 > 0:26:11and son leaving.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13There I am, with a man who...

0:26:15 > 0:26:16A really decent guy.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21I know one day I have to tell him the truth.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24But not yet. Do you understand?

0:26:26 > 0:26:27Yeah. Sort of.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Gerry? I'm asking you not to say anything.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Steve is the best thing that's ever happened to me.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39Yeah, OK.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42Woah.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46"What prompted the successful, retired bachelor to visit

0:26:46 > 0:26:50"this notorious pick-up spot?" Blah-blah-blah.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53"Hints at a secret, dark other life."

0:26:53 > 0:26:55So we've got sex? A brutal murder?

0:26:55 > 0:26:58And a victim rolling in money - and they give it a single column?

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Yeah, it's a hard town.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Yeah, but in the next few days it's hardly even mentioned at all.

0:27:03 > 0:27:04Here.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08What am I looking at?

0:27:08 > 0:27:12"Fourth girl disappears from council care home." Shit.

0:27:12 > 0:27:17Four in the two months leading up to the day of Soutar's death.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20And it's hidden on page 17.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23And it's a bit weird that Helen Wray didn't mention any of this.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26It explains why McNair never bought it up. I wonder

0:27:26 > 0:27:28if Soutar knew about any of these girls?

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Maybe Soutar was what happened to the girls?

0:27:32 > 0:27:35Four disappear before he dies and then after he dies,

0:27:35 > 0:27:38there's not one report of anyone going missing and believe me,

0:27:38 > 0:27:40I've been through all of these.

0:27:40 > 0:27:44Maybe somebody found out about Soutar, and killed him to stop him?

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Well, either way I think we need to go and talk to Helen Wray again.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49There are too many unanswered questions.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Yeah. Her and McNair.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54I wonder if Cathy Sinclair knew any of these girls?

0:27:54 > 0:27:56You said you fancied dinner there and you owe me

0:27:56 > 0:27:58- big time for last night. - Fair enough.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00I'll give Charley a call.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04- Charley?- What? You think you're just paying for the two of us? Dream on.

0:28:06 > 0:28:09So now we have these four girls thrown into the mix.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11All around 16 at the time. All in care.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14Sounds horrible.

0:28:14 > 0:28:15Have you told MacDougall?

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Not yet. We're not sure we can trust her.

0:28:17 > 0:28:18That's why we're here.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21To see if Catherine Sinclair knows any of the missing girls.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26- This is Cathy Sinclair's restaurant? - Yeah. The whole shebang.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29Good evening! How are you?

0:28:29 > 0:28:34- Brilliant, thank you. And yourself? - Wonderful. How was your meal?

0:28:34 > 0:28:37Outstanding. And I'm not easily pleased.

0:28:37 > 0:28:39Oh, sorry - this is my partner, Charley.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- Charley, this is Cathy Sinclair. - Hello.- Hi.

0:28:42 > 0:28:45- So there's no more news about...? - Sort of.

0:28:45 > 0:28:48We discovered that in the months leading up to Soutar's death,

0:28:48 > 0:28:51several girls disappeared from care homes in the city.

0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Do you think this is connected? To Soutar?- We don't know.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57But after Soutar died, no-one else did go missing.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01- You think it was him? - That's what we want to find out.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04- It was a long time ago. - VOICE FROM BEHIND: Cathy?

0:29:04 > 0:29:09Look, sorry, would you excuse me? I must make sure everything's...

0:29:09 > 0:29:11- Of course. It was lovely.- Thank you.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15Right, well, I'm going to get this.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17You give me your keys, I'll make my own way back.

0:29:17 > 0:29:20You two have a nice evening together, all right?

0:29:20 > 0:29:24- Cheers, Gerry, thanks a lot.- Bye. - See you.

0:29:57 > 0:29:58Oh!

0:30:22 > 0:30:24Oh, shit!

0:30:24 > 0:30:25GERRY GROANS

0:30:38 > 0:30:41BOTTLES CLINK RUSTLING

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Oh. What are you doing here?

0:31:20 > 0:31:22What happened to you?

0:31:22 > 0:31:25Walked into a bar - an iron bar.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27Was it the same people who did this?

0:31:27 > 0:31:28I hope not.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31I'd hate to think there were two lots after your old man and me.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34This is scary.

0:31:34 > 0:31:37Listen, Charley, I'm really sorry about last night.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39I promise you I didn't tell Steve anything.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42And, luckily, Cathy didn't recognise you.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45Last night, talking about those girls going missing -

0:31:45 > 0:31:47so much stuff came back.

0:31:47 > 0:31:50When I said I got in trouble as a teenager...

0:31:50 > 0:31:52that was me putting it mildly.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56I was stealing, shoplifting, doing drugs.

0:31:56 > 0:31:57Same as Cathy?

0:31:57 > 0:31:59Yeah, but I got caught.

0:31:59 > 0:32:03But there was a care worker that said that there could be a way out.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05If I was smart.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07She said she knew people...

0:32:07 > 0:32:08A man.

0:32:09 > 0:32:13And that I could either go to jail, or he would get rid of the charges.

0:32:14 > 0:32:19If I would "entertain" this man and some of his friends.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21So what did you do?

0:32:21 > 0:32:22I went to jail.

0:32:24 > 0:32:25Well, young offenders.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34Listen, last night I got the number of that BMW.

0:32:34 > 0:32:38I'm going to call MacDougall to check it out and tell her about this.

0:32:38 > 0:32:39OK. All right.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44- Steve, I'm so sorry.- No, Charley. - I never meant to lie.

0:32:44 > 0:32:45It's all right, it's all right.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49I always knew there was something, I didn't know what exactly.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52I knew you'd tell me in your own good time, you know?

0:32:56 > 0:33:01There you go. Didn't nick a thing. Didn't even take my laptop.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03MacDougall's sending forensics over.

0:33:03 > 0:33:08She did a PNC check and the plates on the Beemer were false.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Any joy?

0:33:10 > 0:33:12- I don't know him. - You might not know Soutar.

0:33:23 > 0:33:26She said she had nothing to do with the care homes.

0:33:26 > 0:33:27She was in ours all the time.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31- See you soon, OK? - See you later.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36- She is wasted on you. - Who you calling?

0:33:36 > 0:33:40- Helen Wray is working at home today. - Where's home?

0:33:40 > 0:33:43- Got no idea. I'll find out later. - I think we should drop in on McNair.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45This is beginning to smell like a cover-up.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49- KNOCK ON DOOR - Yeah? Oh, hi.- Hi.- Hello.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51- Anything missing?- No.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53They made a right mess of your papers.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57- You look terrible. - He always looks like that.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59- You OK? - I'm fine, thank you.

0:34:01 > 0:34:03Last time we spoke you said you hadn't found anything.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Somebody obviously thinks you have.

0:34:05 > 0:34:09Four 16-year-old girls disappeared from care homes prior to

0:34:09 > 0:34:10Soutar's murder.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14- Go on.- After Soutar died, the girls stopped disappearing.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17- Did they ever turn up? - No. Dead or alive.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19So where now?

0:34:21 > 0:34:26Well, probably McNair. See why he never mentioned the missing girls.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30- Do you mind if I take a look around? - Be my guest.

0:34:33 > 0:34:34Still don't trust her.

0:34:34 > 0:34:37- You may be right. Let's talk to somebody in the know.- Yeah.

0:34:37 > 0:34:42- The girls went missing over the course of...?- Two or three months.

0:34:42 > 0:34:44Oh, aye, I do remember.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46You think the raid on the flat...?

0:34:46 > 0:34:49Well, has to do with what we're up to. They didn't take anything.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52Maybe they were looking for something they didn't find?

0:34:52 > 0:34:54No, it was a warning.

0:34:54 > 0:34:56We've been followed more or less since we got here.

0:34:56 > 0:35:00Since we met McNair. Black BMW, tinted windows.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03We've been tailed, burgled, Gerry's been smacked.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06You're in the know. Who do you hire to do that kind of stuff?

0:35:06 > 0:35:07Well, there's not exactly a short list,

0:35:07 > 0:35:12- but I can certainly get a good idea. - That'd be a big help.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15How did you find out about this sex-care thing?

0:35:15 > 0:35:18Let's just say it's a very reliable source.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21OK. But that sort of thing is hard to keep covered up.

0:35:21 > 0:35:22Especially in this town.

0:35:22 > 0:35:25Yeah, well, these people must be seriously dangerous.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Plus the girls were very young and easily scared.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30Fair point.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32I'll also talk to some people from back then.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35See if there's any kind of rumour about young girls being pimped by...

0:35:35 > 0:35:37Helen Wray.

0:35:37 > 0:35:42I'm on it. In the meantime, be bloody careful.

0:35:42 > 0:35:43More careful than that anyway.

0:35:43 > 0:35:47That's my middle name. That and ouch!

0:35:47 > 0:35:49Thanks, Roy.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51Disappearing girls?

0:35:51 > 0:35:53Yeah, four. It was in the papers. And the news.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55But not in your case file.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57Probably wasn't relevant.

0:35:57 > 0:35:59So a murder victim who's in care,

0:35:59 > 0:36:02who leaves money to a 16-year-old girl, who's also in care, has

0:36:02 > 0:36:06no relevance to four other girls who disappear, who were in care?

0:36:06 > 0:36:09Soutar was beaten to death in a gay pick-up area.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12A gay-bashing that went a bit crazy, of which there have

0:36:12 > 0:36:14been quite a few.

0:36:14 > 0:36:16Who says? Not the papers.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19That's because back then poofs who got beat up, they didn't tend

0:36:19 > 0:36:20to advertise the fact.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23- So how come you knew? - Word on the street.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26Interesting that the girls stopped disappearing after

0:36:26 > 0:36:27Soutar died.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31Whoever murdered him did society a favour.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34How come you knew girls stopped disappearing after Soutar died?

0:36:34 > 0:36:37I had pals who worked on the case.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40And I have I good memory...

0:36:40 > 0:36:41for everything.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44I know you're in this...

0:36:44 > 0:36:48up to your neck. I know it.

0:36:48 > 0:36:49Because I know you.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00- You OK? - You asked me that last time.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04- Wait, wait, wait.- What?

0:37:04 > 0:37:06Ogilvy.

0:37:06 > 0:37:092011?

0:37:09 > 0:37:11His handicap is here.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16Here we are.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20Oh boy, is this guy a peach or what?

0:37:20 > 0:37:23- Ogilvy plays off an active handicap of nine.- Huh!

0:37:23 > 0:37:26He must be the first senile golfer in history of the game to

0:37:26 > 0:37:27play off single figures.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31And you don't just forget to mention the ex-Procurator Fiscal

0:37:31 > 0:37:34on the case just happens to be a member of your club.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38- Good enough for me. - No! No, wait, wait, wait.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41We know. McNair doesn't need to know that.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44Let's keep it that way for now.

0:37:44 > 0:37:45OK.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54- Special, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56How much would a place like this cost up here?

0:37:56 > 0:37:59Too much. Way too much.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Hello there. - Well, hello again.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- It's a beautiful place you've got here.- Thank you.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17Must have put you back a fair bit?

0:38:17 > 0:38:20- I worked very hard over the years. - Social Services?

0:38:20 > 0:38:23Social Services - everybody is very keen to criticise

0:38:23 > 0:38:26when things go wrong, but they notice when things go right, eh?

0:38:26 > 0:38:27You develop a thick skin.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29It's something you just have to get used to.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31You must have had to have a very thick skin

0:38:31 > 0:38:34when those four girls went missing...

0:38:34 > 0:38:36from care, just before James Soutar died.

0:38:38 > 0:38:39Do you not remember?

0:38:39 > 0:38:41No, of course I do.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45I thought it was pretty odd that Soutar left money to a girl in care.

0:38:45 > 0:38:46Cathy Sinclair?

0:38:46 > 0:38:49She must have been about the same age as the girls who went missing.

0:38:49 > 0:38:51None of them have been found, have they?

0:38:52 > 0:38:56I'm sorry - I don't understand what it is you're insinuating?

0:38:56 > 0:39:00- Insinuating?- Yes. You're clearly implying there's some

0:39:00 > 0:39:03connection between these events and I know what it is.

0:39:03 > 0:39:06Oh, no, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant at all.

0:39:06 > 0:39:08No. All Steve is saying is that given your job at the time,

0:39:08 > 0:39:12child welfare - what do you think happened to the girls?

0:39:13 > 0:39:15I don't know. No-one does.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19It was very distressing.

0:39:19 > 0:39:22Even now the memory of it is quite upsetting.

0:39:22 > 0:39:26We think Soutar was involved.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29He may even be responsible for killing those girls.

0:39:29 > 0:39:30You see in cases like these -

0:39:30 > 0:39:36and I've worked a few - it usually boils down to sex or money. Or both.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39So what would your guess be?

0:39:39 > 0:39:41I really don't know.

0:39:41 > 0:39:45No doubt your experience counts for a lot, but mine is more to do

0:39:45 > 0:39:48with the problems of such girls - not their disappearance.

0:39:49 > 0:39:50I can't help you.

0:39:52 > 0:39:53Thanks for your time.

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Bye, now.

0:39:57 > 0:39:58Gerry.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Lying through her teeth.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Yep.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07And absolutely no way of proving it.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Not unless Charley comes forward.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13You know as well as I do it would be her word against Wray's.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18And by the looks of that house, Helen Wray is very well connected.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21So what next?

0:40:21 > 0:40:23We wait.

0:40:23 > 0:40:26- What for? - Just enjoy the scenery for a minute.

0:40:28 > 0:40:29Go on.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35- DOOR BELL RINGS - Yes, yes - I'm coming! Wait!

0:40:39 > 0:40:43Helen, I'm really sorry, but I think I dropped my mobile.

0:40:43 > 0:40:44Do you mind if I have a quick look?

0:40:44 > 0:40:48Sorry to bother you. It's stupid of me, I know.

0:40:48 > 0:40:51Stupid. I can't think...ah, look!

0:40:51 > 0:40:53Here it is.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55How I managed to do that I don't know.

0:40:55 > 0:41:00There we go. Look, I'll let you get on with your day. I'm so sorry.

0:41:02 > 0:41:03- That's not a mobile.- No.

0:41:06 > 0:41:10It's Helen. They've just been out to see me again. At my house!

0:41:11 > 0:41:14The two guys from this new unsolved crime unit thing.

0:41:15 > 0:41:19Don't patronise me! It's no good saying "It's in hand."

0:41:19 > 0:41:22And don't tell me to calm down - they're onto the sex angle.

0:41:23 > 0:41:27Yes! They mentioned Cathy Sinclair. Cathy Sinclair?

0:41:27 > 0:41:30A girl you were particularly fond of, remember?

0:41:31 > 0:41:34I know you weren't the only one who had sex with her -

0:41:34 > 0:41:36you just paid the least!

0:41:37 > 0:41:39I am not panicking! I am bloody...!

0:41:39 > 0:41:41DOOR BELL RINGS

0:41:41 > 0:41:43For goodness sake.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53- This is not funny.- Sorry, Helen, I've no signal on my mobile.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55I need to make an urgent call. Could I use your landline?

0:41:57 > 0:42:00- Thanks so much. I'm sorry about this.- Sorry.

0:42:07 > 0:42:13Helen, I must say how much I admire what you and people like you

0:42:13 > 0:42:15do in the social services.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18In our job, obviously, we're dealing with social workers all

0:42:18 > 0:42:21the time and without them...

0:42:21 > 0:42:22Yes, yes. You don't have to...

0:42:22 > 0:42:27Answer machine! Sorry. I'll just have to try again later.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31- Sorry to waste your time again. Come on, Gerry.- Thank you.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49That's the last number she dialled. Give it a ring.

0:42:52 > 0:42:53Hello?

0:42:53 > 0:42:57CAR HORN BLARES Oh, is it? Sorry, wrong number.

0:42:57 > 0:42:59- It's Ogilvy. - What is this guy up to?

0:43:01 > 0:43:02Blimey, he's right up our arse.

0:43:14 > 0:43:17Uh-oh. Uh-oh.

0:43:17 > 0:43:19SIREN BLARES

0:43:26 > 0:43:30That's the Beemer that's been following us.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32What the bloody hell's going on?

0:43:32 > 0:43:35Sorry about that. But, hey - better late than never.

0:43:35 > 0:43:39- False plates? - No. But I bet those are.

0:43:40 > 0:43:43Unbelievable.

0:43:47 > 0:43:494X4 was stolen in Bishopbriggs this morning.

0:43:49 > 0:43:52And by now probably burning somewhere very nicely where

0:43:52 > 0:43:54- there's no CCTV cameras. - I told you it was a set-up!

0:43:56 > 0:43:58- Set-up? - Don't act like you don't know.

0:43:58 > 0:44:00You've been tailing us since the off.

0:44:00 > 0:44:03Actually this is the first time I've been out with the boys.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06Look, I had a feeling you were getting close.

0:44:06 > 0:44:09- You used us as bait to lure the villains out.- No.

0:44:09 > 0:44:11I trusted you to get close enough for me

0:44:11 > 0:44:12to be able to step in at the last minute.

0:44:12 > 0:44:15Well, it didn't work, did it? The bastard's got away.

0:44:15 > 0:44:19Well, whatever you said to Helen Wray must have been the trigger.

0:44:19 > 0:44:21Which was what, exactly?

0:44:23 > 0:44:26Helen Wray procured girls in care for a sex ring -

0:44:26 > 0:44:28a group of men, including Soutar.

0:44:28 > 0:44:32We think Soutar lured some of these girls somewhere, alone.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34And killed them.

0:44:34 > 0:44:36One of the group found out what Soutar was doing,

0:44:36 > 0:44:39- killed him and covered it up. - Any names?- Oh! No way.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42I'm no getting a sawn-off stuck in my face for nothing.

0:44:42 > 0:44:44We make the collar.

0:44:44 > 0:44:46Hello, Colin.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49I tell you what,

0:44:49 > 0:44:53- that birdie he got in the 17th was unbelievable, wasn't it?- Was it?

0:44:53 > 0:44:56Bet you could give some of those guys a pretty good game

0:44:56 > 0:44:59yourself - playing off nine the way you do. Not bad for a 76-year-old.

0:44:59 > 0:45:02I wonder how many residents have their own mobile phone?

0:45:02 > 0:45:04Not many, I should think.

0:45:04 > 0:45:09No. But then being an ex-officer of the law does have its privileges.

0:45:09 > 0:45:12I bet it does.

0:45:14 > 0:45:17"They mentioned Cathy Sinclair. Cathy Sinclair?

0:45:17 > 0:45:20"A girl you were particularly fond of, remember?

0:45:21 > 0:45:24"I know you weren't the only one who paid for sex -

0:45:24 > 0:45:26"you just paid the least!"

0:45:26 > 0:45:30That was a call made to you a couple of hours ago by Helen Wray.

0:45:31 > 0:45:33Anything you want to say about that?

0:45:35 > 0:45:38Should be pretty interesting you know -

0:45:38 > 0:45:42the present Procurator Fiscal making a judgment call on charges of sex

0:45:42 > 0:45:47with minors in local authority care against the ex-Procurator Fiscal.

0:45:47 > 0:45:51I don't think it will come to that.

0:45:51 > 0:45:52Oh no? Why's that?

0:45:52 > 0:45:54Because...

0:45:55 > 0:45:58..I don't have that long to live.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01Life's a bitch and then you die. So what?

0:46:01 > 0:46:06So all my life all I've had is my reputation.

0:46:06 > 0:46:10And while I live, I have every intention of keeping it.

0:46:10 > 0:46:12That's all I care about.

0:46:12 > 0:46:15You didn't give a shit about those girls in care though, did you?

0:46:15 > 0:46:17Who else "entertained" those girls with you?

0:46:17 > 0:46:20No, no. I don't do that.

0:46:20 > 0:46:24No? Well, what about James Soutar?

0:46:24 > 0:46:26When did you find out what he was doing?

0:46:26 > 0:46:29That he wasn't just one of the boys like the rest of you?

0:46:29 > 0:46:32I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about.

0:46:32 > 0:46:34I don't give a toss how terminally ill you are -

0:46:34 > 0:46:37I'm going to make damn sure the doctors keep you alive just

0:46:37 > 0:46:39long enough for the judge to send you down.

0:46:39 > 0:46:41I never said I was ill.

0:46:43 > 0:46:45I said I hadn't long to live.

0:46:47 > 0:46:48Shit!

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Helen, you must know the murder of James Soutar is linked to

0:47:02 > 0:47:04the sex ring you helped create.

0:47:04 > 0:47:06I don't know any James Soutar!

0:47:06 > 0:47:08Without naming names, you make it very difficult for me

0:47:08 > 0:47:11to believe you're not protecting the actual murderer.

0:47:11 > 0:47:14Soutar was not one of the men, I keep telling you.

0:47:14 > 0:47:16OK - let them remain scot-free.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19I'm sure they'll be delighted to visit you in Cornton Vale.

0:47:26 > 0:47:29Most of them are no longer alive.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32Fine. Let's start with the living.

0:47:47 > 0:47:48How did it go?

0:47:51 > 0:47:53Ah, shit.

0:47:53 > 0:47:55What is it?

0:47:57 > 0:47:59Woah.

0:47:59 > 0:48:02Do you admit to having sex with girls procured by Helen Wray?

0:48:04 > 0:48:05No comment.

0:48:05 > 0:48:07Did you help obstruct the investigation

0:48:07 > 0:48:11into the disappearance of Sally Carmichael, Gemma O'Neill, Fionnula McCalliog

0:48:11 > 0:48:15and Moira Biggar from Strathclyde Council Care in 1993?

0:48:16 > 0:48:17No comment.

0:48:17 > 0:48:21Did you phone Detective Inspector Frank McNair to inform him

0:48:21 > 0:48:24he was about to be suspended from duty on or

0:48:24 > 0:48:27around the 6th of September 2002 so that he could avoid

0:48:27 > 0:48:30criminal investigation by claiming to be sick?

0:48:31 > 0:48:33No comment.

0:48:35 > 0:48:41Did you murder James Alistair Soutar on the night of 8th May 1993?

0:48:43 > 0:48:45No.

0:48:45 > 0:48:48No. I did not.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50Do you know the identity of his killers?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57Absolutely not.

0:48:59 > 0:49:00He's lying.

0:49:02 > 0:49:06Possibly. But to be honest, I just don't know.

0:49:06 > 0:49:10- How long have you known him? - Thirty years.

0:49:10 > 0:49:11Long time.

0:49:11 > 0:49:13Not long enough, apparently.

0:49:15 > 0:49:16PHONE RINGS

0:49:22 > 0:49:27Giles Morrison - the ex-Sheriff of Glasgow - just had a heart attack.

0:49:27 > 0:49:29- Is it serious? - Not serious enough.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33Look, you two have been fantastic.

0:49:33 > 0:49:36I don't know if we'll get these guys for killing Jimmy,

0:49:36 > 0:49:39but we'll sure as hell nail them for what they did to those poor girls.

0:49:39 > 0:49:44I know - it's not the result I was looking for but it is a result.

0:49:45 > 0:49:48Right. I'll finish the interview then head off to see what

0:49:48 > 0:49:51pillar of the press Tom McInnes has to say.

0:49:51 > 0:49:54With any luck this one will have a stroke.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01What?

0:50:02 > 0:50:08All right, I give in - I apologise. Glasgow is fabulous.

0:50:08 > 0:50:13Yep, you were right, I was wrong. Can we go home now?

0:50:13 > 0:50:15No.

0:50:15 > 0:50:16What are you waiting for?

0:50:16 > 0:50:18Her.

0:50:44 > 0:50:47- You worked all this out...? - From a tell.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49- Eh?- Did you not hear it?

0:50:51 > 0:50:53Did you not hear what she said?

0:51:01 > 0:51:03Fancy finding you here.

0:51:05 > 0:51:08- You followed me here. Because? - Because of a tell.

0:51:08 > 0:51:10A tell?

0:51:10 > 0:51:14James Alistair Soutar. You called him Jimmy.

0:51:14 > 0:51:17Everywhere we went, everyone called him James, nobody called him Jimmy.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Tell us about Jimmy.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25I knew him as a result of being coerced into having sex with

0:51:25 > 0:51:28some of the men you've had the dubious pleasure of meeting.

0:51:28 > 0:51:32- What, you? You were...?- Hold on, hold on. James Soutar was...

0:51:32 > 0:51:34Jimmy Soutar was my saviour.

0:51:34 > 0:51:36You were brought up here in care?

0:51:39 > 0:51:42A few months after I started entertaining

0:51:42 > 0:51:46for Helen Wray, Jimmy tagged me coming home from school.

0:51:47 > 0:51:50He told me he knew what was happening to me.

0:51:50 > 0:51:52Of course he did, he was part of the sex ring.

0:51:52 > 0:51:56No! Because of his charity work in the care homes.

0:51:58 > 0:52:00One of the girls in a home had come on to him,

0:52:00 > 0:52:02thinking he was one of them.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05When she told him why he was horrified.

0:52:06 > 0:52:09He knew he could do next to nothing.

0:52:09 > 0:52:12The people involved were too well connected.

0:52:12 > 0:52:14Connected and dangerous.

0:52:14 > 0:52:16He wanted to help me.

0:52:16 > 0:52:17To offer me a way out.

0:52:18 > 0:52:22He said he was rich enough to get me out of Glasgow, put me in a flat

0:52:22 > 0:52:26in another city and provide me with enough money for a proper education.

0:52:26 > 0:52:27So how could you trust him?

0:52:29 > 0:52:30I didn't.

0:52:30 > 0:52:35But a week later he reappeared with a train ticket to Edinburgh,

0:52:35 > 0:52:37my name on a flat lease, six months paid in advance,

0:52:37 > 0:52:40and a bank account with five grand in it.

0:52:40 > 0:52:43- And you went? - I flew.

0:52:44 > 0:52:45He saved my life.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49I ended up at university.

0:52:50 > 0:52:54When I finished I decided I'd do for others what he'd done for me.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58- That's why I'm here. - Wasn't it a bit risky coming back?

0:52:58 > 0:53:01Not if you stay away long enough.

0:53:01 > 0:53:05When I joined the force, Roy Fraser was a superintendent.

0:53:05 > 0:53:06I recognised him instantly.

0:53:08 > 0:53:10And he didn't know me from Adam.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12What about the other girls? What happened to them?

0:53:12 > 0:53:15Alive. All of them.

0:53:15 > 0:53:17Happy.

0:53:17 > 0:53:19Living in other places.

0:53:20 > 0:53:22All saved by him.

0:53:22 > 0:53:25So this is all about payback?

0:53:25 > 0:53:26No.

0:53:26 > 0:53:29All this is to find out who killed the man who saved my life.

0:53:29 > 0:53:32It hasn't really worked, has it?

0:53:32 > 0:53:35Nobody's owned up to killing Soutar.

0:53:35 > 0:53:38- And we don't have any evidence of anything.- No, I know.

0:53:38 > 0:53:40As I said, it's not a perfect result.

0:53:41 > 0:53:43But it'll do.

0:53:43 > 0:53:45Do you often bring flowers up here?

0:53:45 > 0:53:47Sometimes.

0:53:47 > 0:53:50You didn't today. We were watching you.

0:53:50 > 0:53:52You weren't carrying anything.

0:53:52 > 0:53:54No.

0:53:54 > 0:53:55So who did?

0:53:56 > 0:53:58White roses?

0:54:01 > 0:54:03We're looking for Catherine Sinclair.

0:54:08 > 0:54:12- Cathy, you told us you never met James Soutar.- No.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14That's not true, is it?

0:54:14 > 0:54:17Because James Soutar approached you, didn't he?

0:54:17 > 0:54:18When?

0:54:18 > 0:54:22He offered to help you escape from what was happening.

0:54:22 > 0:54:24The men, the hotels, Helen Wray.

0:54:24 > 0:54:26Yeah. He offered you money.

0:54:26 > 0:54:29Said he'd save you - just like he'd saved the other girls.

0:54:29 > 0:54:33Money? Flat in another city? Help with education?

0:54:33 > 0:54:35You didn't believe him. Did you?

0:54:38 > 0:54:39No.

0:54:41 > 0:54:42What did you believe?

0:54:42 > 0:54:44He was killing them.

0:54:45 > 0:54:47That he'd killed Gemma.

0:54:49 > 0:54:52The staff went mental, running round trying to find her.

0:54:52 > 0:54:54I never said anything,

0:54:54 > 0:54:58because I knew she'd probably be up town in a hotel.

0:54:59 > 0:55:02We always used to come back safe - in taxis.

0:55:04 > 0:55:07But this time she didn't.

0:55:07 > 0:55:09And then this man stopped me near my school.

0:55:09 > 0:55:11James Soutar?

0:55:12 > 0:55:16He said he knew all about Helen Wray, the hotels and so on.

0:55:16 > 0:55:17That he wanted to help me.

0:55:19 > 0:55:24Soon as he said that I knew right then what had happened to Gemma.

0:55:25 > 0:55:27So I said, "OK."

0:55:30 > 0:55:33I said I'd meet him at the bus station late one night.

0:55:33 > 0:55:35And?

0:55:37 > 0:55:38I met him.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42With a rounders bat from school.

0:55:45 > 0:55:47Only, months later - when the money came...

0:55:50 > 0:55:52..I started to have doubts.

0:55:52 > 0:55:54I thought, "Why did he give me that money? Why?"

0:55:56 > 0:56:00Then, years later, I saw her.

0:56:00 > 0:56:01- Who?- Gemma.

0:56:01 > 0:56:04I was in Aberdeen.

0:56:04 > 0:56:07There she was. In a hotel in the city centre.

0:56:08 > 0:56:10She looks straight at me.

0:56:13 > 0:56:14I had to leave.

0:56:16 > 0:56:19She was alive. And he wasn't.

0:56:26 > 0:56:29I did whatever I could to atone.

0:56:29 > 0:56:32I did whatever I could to try and be a decent human being.

0:56:34 > 0:56:36Even though it would never be enough.

0:56:38 > 0:56:40And now you're here.

0:56:42 > 0:56:43And I'm glad.

0:56:46 > 0:56:48Cathy, you're going to need your things.

0:56:57 > 0:56:59What are you going to do?

0:57:00 > 0:57:03I'm going to give her the number of the best defence lawyer in Scotland.

0:57:05 > 0:57:09- Steve?- What? - Can we go home now?!

0:57:09 > 0:57:12No. No. We've got one more thing to do.

0:57:12 > 0:57:13This is intimidation.

0:57:13 > 0:57:18No. Intimidation is a six-foot Scotsman with a shotgun.

0:57:18 > 0:57:20You know, it never occurred to me that Roy Fraser

0:57:20 > 0:57:23- would have tipped you off. - Oh, give me a break.

0:57:23 > 0:57:25But then I should have twigged when he was made DCC -

0:57:25 > 0:57:27all DCs being complete bastards.

0:57:27 > 0:57:29- Are you through?- Not quite.

0:57:29 > 0:57:32I have to tell you to know that Roy Fraser's coughed to having

0:57:32 > 0:57:34you fix the investigation into James Soutar's murder.

0:57:34 > 0:57:38Then you get to keep your pension and get this sinecure.

0:57:38 > 0:57:41- What?- A post requiring little or no work

0:57:41 > 0:57:44but allowing the holder status and financial benefit.

0:57:44 > 0:57:48What's really funny is that you have absolutely no proof at all,

0:57:48 > 0:57:50otherwise there would be someone,

0:57:50 > 0:57:53like a real police officer, coming to arrest me.

0:57:53 > 0:57:55Waiting just outside the door.

0:57:55 > 0:57:59- You know why she left you? - Woah!

0:57:59 > 0:58:05Leave it! Listen, he's going down. You don't need to do this.

0:58:05 > 0:58:08But I do.

0:58:10 > 0:58:12I couldn't have put that better myself.

0:58:16 > 0:58:18He's had a very nasty fall in there, boys.

0:58:19 > 0:58:22You know what? Scotland's beginning to grow on me.

0:58:22 > 0:58:24What? You're actually going to come back again?

0:58:24 > 0:58:26Yeah, I could well do, actually.

0:58:27 > 0:58:29If you can ever scrape together

0:58:29 > 0:58:32eleven decent players to give us a game.
