0:04:51 > 0:04:52You look tired, Tilly.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Well, it's been a big week.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Mm, I heard you on the radio.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Oh, first class, you were.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Mind you, that interviewer, calling your playing faddish, I...
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Mum, a bit of controversy is good.
0:05:09 > 0:05:10Gets me noticed.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14You know what I'm like before your shows.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Well, you'd think it was me that had to perform.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18It's fine.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22We can be nervous together.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37I think I've been this height for about eight years.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40MUM LAUGHS Maybe you're getting shorter.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Do you remember when you first started with Mrs Girard
0:05:44 > 0:05:46and we used to go to that curry place
0:05:46 > 0:05:48after you'd finished your lessons?
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Oh, Empress of India. You'd always get me a mango lassi.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54I was walking past the other day, they're still open...
0:05:55 > 0:05:59..so I...I went in and I booked us a table for lunch tomorrow.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Tomorrow?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- Oh, you're busy?- Oh. No, erm...
0:06:04 > 0:06:06No, no, no, I can shift some stuff.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08- Are you sure?- Yeah, of course.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Wouldn't want to miss out on a mango lassi.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36So he made you breakfast?
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Many would consider that positive.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41He went through my fridge and used all my kitchen stuff.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43That's so intimate.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45And shagging him wasn't?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47You sort of expect them just to slink away in the morning.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Not hang around to make hollandaise sauce.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53What a sordid life you lead.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55I had to chase him out in the end.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57I made up this excuse about a doctor's appointment.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59You know we can hear every word you're saying.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05Well...I'm glad that you've got your one thrill for the week, Dave.

0:16:16 > 0:16:17Thank you.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19You ever know of your mum to have mood swings?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21- No.- Get depressed?
0:16:21 > 0:16:22No.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24She could be nervy, but no.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27So, yesterday morning, when you had breakfast with her...?
0:16:27 > 0:16:29She was fine. She was...
0:16:29 > 0:16:31excited about my concert.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35Were you aware that she was taking antidepressants?
0:16:39 > 0:16:40We contacted her doctor.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44He prescribed them for acute anxiety.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47It's not uncommon for people to hide
0:16:47 > 0:16:49this sort of thing from their family.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52MATILDA SIGHS
0:16:52 > 0:16:54So that's what did it?
0:16:54 > 0:16:56The pills?
0:16:56 > 0:16:58She took too many or she mixed them with wine or...?
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Toxicology said no.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04No drugs or alcohol in her system aside from the standard dose of that
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- medication.- Then what was it?
0:17:07 > 0:17:11Like I said, she was being treated for persistent anxiety and...
0:17:11 > 0:17:14She cut her throat right in front of me.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17You're telling me that it was because she was anxious?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Have you ever seen anyone do anything like that ever?
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- Tilly, she's just telling... - No, we're talking about my mum
0:17:22 > 0:17:24and I want her to answer me.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26People do cut themselves, obviously.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31But, no, I haven't seen anything exactly like what your mother did
0:17:31 > 0:17:33and I'm so sorry that you had to see it.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37I should leave, give you some privacy.
0:17:38 > 0:17:43If anything more comes to light, I will contact you immediately.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45And again - I'm sorry for your loss.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54How did my mum know that I was going to be there?
0:17:54 > 0:17:55At the stage door.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00- She couldn't have. - Then why did she wait for me?
0:18:00 > 0:18:01It's just coincidence.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- What else could it be? - There must be a reason.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02- TV:- On the 24th of March, 1994,
0:24:02 > 0:24:04four-year-old Carys Howell
0:24:04 > 0:24:06disappeared from the children's park in sleepy
0:24:06 > 0:24:07Penllynith, Wales.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11Despite an extensive hunt and a police investigation,
0:24:11 > 0:24:15which often focused on her parents, Rose and Sean Howell,
0:24:15 > 0:24:18no clue to Carys' whereabouts was ever found.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Five years on, Carys' disappearance continues to raise profound...
0:24:23 > 0:24:26When you called, you mentioned the Carys Howell case.
0:24:26 > 0:24:27I pulled the file.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31I don't think anyone's touched it in 20 years.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33So they never found her, then?
0:24:33 > 0:24:35No.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38There was a number for the missing girl's parents.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I tried it. Disconnected.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43The chief investigating officer retired.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45You could track them down, though, right?
0:24:45 > 0:24:47If you wanted to.
0:24:47 > 0:24:48Matilda, can I ask -
0:24:48 > 0:24:50why did you ask me about this?
0:24:52 > 0:24:56Because I thought photos of the missing girl's mother,
0:24:56 > 0:24:57they could be evidence.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Of what?
0:25:04 > 0:25:05I just...
0:25:08 > 0:25:10I can't understand why my mum would've...
0:25:13 > 0:25:14..collected all of these.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18People see cases like this on the news,
0:25:18 > 0:25:21particularly involving young children,
0:25:21 > 0:25:22and they get emotionally involved.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25But she...she wasn't just watching on TV.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29She was there in that town, taking photos.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31We don't know that she took them herself.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Where did she get them, then?
0:25:34 > 0:25:36She worked at a bloody Tesco.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Maybe she had a connection to this town.
0:25:40 > 0:25:41She was from Manchester.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46She never mentioned anything about Wales.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Still, she could have had family there. Or friends.
0:25:49 > 0:25:50I don't know.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57Her parents died before I was born, and if she had any other family,
0:25:57 > 0:25:59she wasn't in touch with them.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01So growing up, it was just you two.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03And now it's just you.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08- SHE SIGHS - I'm sorry, Matilda.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12I do appreciate you coming in today, but
0:26:12 > 0:26:13I just don't think this is a police matter.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15OK.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13BANGING
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Honestly?
0:27:19 > 0:27:22I'm not even sure it is Rose Howell in these photographs.
0:27:25 > 0:27:26I knew you wouldn't take this seriously.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28No, I am taking it seriously.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30No, you're not. You think I'm hysterical.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33No, I think you've been through one of the most awful things I can
0:27:33 > 0:27:36imagine and you're trying to make sense of it.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44I spoke to Renata. She says you aren't returning her calls.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46I don't feel like talking to my bloody agent.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49No, she knows you need space. She just wants to talk things
0:27:49 > 0:27:51through, make plans.
0:27:51 > 0:27:52And, er...
0:27:52 > 0:27:54I know this sounds mercenary,
0:27:54 > 0:27:57but some of the venues that booked us have started cancelling
0:27:57 > 0:28:00and Renata's worried it might start impacting on our New York dates.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Yeah, you're right, it sounds mercenary.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13I just can't get this stuff out of my head.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16I look at...
0:28:18 > 0:28:21I look at it and I feel like I don't even know my own mum.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26She was around for 22 years before you were even born.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28I mean, of course you don't know everything about her.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30She left this out on her bed,
0:28:30 > 0:28:32like she wanted me to find it.
0:28:34 > 0:28:35Why would she do that?
0:28:40 > 0:28:42It's like she was stalking these people.
0:28:45 > 0:28:46It's got to be connected.
0:28:48 > 0:28:49Doesn't it?
0:28:55 > 0:28:56Fine, let's go up there, then.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00Let's..look.
0:29:02 > 0:29:09So, London to Penllynith, four hours and 15 minutes without traffic.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12If we set off early, we could be there by midday.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Are you serious?
0:29:14 > 0:29:16Look, I don't think these photos mean anything,
0:29:16 > 0:29:19but if it helps give you peace of mind, I say we go, sniff around,
0:29:19 > 0:29:21see what we can see.
0:29:21 > 0:29:22And if nothing comes of it,
0:29:22 > 0:29:26well, at least we got out of bloody London for a few days.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30- Good plan.- Yeah.
0:29:32 > 0:29:33Good.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Pen...

0:32:28 > 0:32:30- Cos of the funeral.- Ah.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32Popular fellow, was he, the deceased?
0:32:32 > 0:32:35Well, he was richer than Midas, does tend to bring them out.
0:32:35 > 0:32:36Yeah.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41We were wondering if there was anywhere else to stay in Penllynith.
0:32:41 > 0:32:42A hotel or something?
0:32:42 > 0:32:46Er, tourist information at the post office, you can ask there.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49Except it's Wednesday, so it'll be closed.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52We're actually looking for a Sean and Rose Howell.
0:32:52 > 0:32:53Do you by any chance know them?
0:32:55 > 0:32:56There is no Rose Howell.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59She's Rose Morgan now.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01She remarried?
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- Does she still live here? - Sorry, what's Rose to you?- W...
0:33:06 > 0:33:08She and my mum knew each other years ago and...
0:33:09 > 0:33:11..my mum passed away recently
0:33:11 > 0:33:14and so I'm looking up some of her old friends.
0:33:16 > 0:33:18Your mum from round here, was she?
0:33:18 > 0:33:19No, she moved around a lot
0:33:19 > 0:33:20when she was young.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Well, there's no point going to Rose's house, she won't be there.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29Can you tell us where she'd be?
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Mum always talked about Rose.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37And it would mean a lot to me if I could track her down.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42It's like going for a country drive
0:33:42 > 0:33:44with a character from a James Ellroy novel.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46SHE CHUCKLES
0:33:46 > 0:33:49Well, I had to say something or she wouldn't have told us.
0:33:49 > 0:33:50Hey, no, I'm impressed.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52I never imagined you had this talent for barefaced lying.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58There.
0:33:59 > 0:34:04Where then do I go from your spirit or where can I flee from your
0:34:04 > 0:34:08presence? If I climb up into heaven, you are there.
0:34:08 > 0:34:12If I make the grave my bed, you are there also.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14If I take...
0:34:16 > 0:34:20Tilly, Tilly. Are you sure this is a good idea?
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just want to see that she's real.
0:34:30 > 0:34:31Look.
0:34:38 > 0:34:39Yeah.
0:34:42 > 0:34:43Might be.
0:34:45 > 0:34:46OK, bye.
0:34:57 > 0:34:58Tilly, she's coming over.
0:35:03 > 0:35:04Let us pray.
0:35:22 > 0:35:23Do I know you?
0:35:25 > 0:35:27You're Rose. Rose Morgan.
0:35:29 > 0:35:30What do you want?
0:35:33 > 0:35:34My name is Matilda Gray.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40I want to talk to you. Maybe after the service we can sit down.
0:35:40 > 0:35:41Or we can talk right now.
0:35:49 > 0:35:50My mum.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Her name was Janice Gray.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56You're going to ask me about my daughter.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- How did you know that? - You're not wanted here.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02- Go away.- Please, please... - Tilly, we should go.- ..if you knew
0:36:02 > 0:36:05- my mum, you have to tell me w... - What's all this?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08My mum killed herself and I think that it had something to do with
0:36:08 > 0:36:09- your daughter, Carys. - What the bloody hell?
0:36:09 > 0:36:10Please, if you...
0:36:10 > 0:36:13- If you knew...- 23 years gone and you lot are still at it.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15Hounding my wife.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17- Hounding my family. - No...- Hey, hey, hey, steady on.
0:36:17 > 0:36:18- Back off, mate!- Oi!
0:36:18 > 0:36:21What is this? My uncle's dead.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23How about a bit of respect?
0:36:23 > 0:36:24I didn't start this.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Sorry. Sorry.
0:36:28 > 0:36:29Come on, let's go.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38I haven't been knocked on my arse like that since I was at school.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40Turns out it's like riding a bike.
0:36:40 > 0:36:41You never forget how.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45You heard what she said when I mentioned Mum's name.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49She knew I was going to ask about Carys.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52- No, maybe. - Why did she tell us to go away?
0:36:56 > 0:36:57There's still the father.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00- If we can track him down... - If he doesn't tell us to piss off.
0:37:00 > 0:37:01Then we shall consider pissing off.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04But actually, right now, what we need is a place to stay.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07So I say we head to the next town, find a hotel, get some food...
0:37:07 > 0:37:10- A drink.- The finest wine that Wales has to offer.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14And then plan our move in the morning with clear heads.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19What's wrong?
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Look, it's the guy from the funeral.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- WHISPERS:- No, don't look, don't... - WHISPERS: You said look.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Yeah, look, not... Oh, shit.
0:37:29 > 0:37:30He... He's coming over.
0:37:32 > 0:37:33- Hey.- Good evening.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Are you both OK?
0:37:37 > 0:37:38Yeah. Yeah.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40My dignity's a little dented but...
0:37:40 > 0:37:41it wasn't in mint condition to begin with,
0:37:41 > 0:37:44- so I'm happy to just write it off. - It's fine. He's fine.
0:37:47 > 0:37:48I'm Nick.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52Matilda. This is Hal.
0:37:52 > 0:37:53- Hey.- Mm.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59I'm really sorry about what happened earlier. We didn't mean...
0:38:00 > 0:38:01..to disrespect your uncle.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04Ewan was my great uncle
0:38:04 > 0:38:07and I'd never met him, so I might be able to forgive you.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Well, erm...at least let us make it up to you.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- We could buy you a drink or something.- Well, no,
0:38:12 > 0:38:15- we have to get moving to a hotel. - Yeah, we've got time for one drink.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17I think I might be OK for a drink.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20But I could
0:38:20 > 0:38:22really use a ride.
0:38:24 > 0:38:25Yeah.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Yep, sure, if it's nearby. Yep.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39Well, it's right here.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49So your uncle left you the entire estate even though you never met?
0:38:49 > 0:38:51Yeah, kind of random, right?
0:38:51 > 0:38:52I remember when I was little,
0:38:52 > 0:38:55Mum would always send him these Christmas cards and get me to draw
0:38:55 > 0:38:57a picture on them. I guess my smiley
0:38:57 > 0:39:00- faces left an impression. - HE LAUGHS
0:39:00 > 0:39:02Hey, do you think if your mum had a picture of Ewan's house,
0:39:02 > 0:39:05that maybe she knew him?
0:39:05 > 0:39:06Erm, my mum's dead.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09I'm sorry.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11So are you planning on staying here, then,
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- in Wales?- Dunno.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16See, I've got a place in Melbourne, a wine bar.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18My partner's running it while I'm away but...
0:39:18 > 0:39:20- Hey, just left here.- Oh. - Here, here, left!
0:39:24 > 0:39:27- NICK CHUCKLES - Stuntman!
0:39:27 > 0:39:29I think a bit of notice with the directions might help.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31There's no need. We're already here.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33My...my very own mansion.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07They, er...
0:40:07 > 0:40:08They found Ewan...
0:40:10 > 0:40:13- ..just right here.- Found as in...?
0:40:15 > 0:40:16They reckon he fell off the roof.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21What on earth was he doing up there?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Old guy living alone.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26I'd guess he'd just had enough.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29Mind you, at the funeral they said that he had lunch in town that day
0:40:29 > 0:40:32- and was in good spirits, so... - DOOR OPENS
0:40:32 > 0:40:34- ..who knows?- Got a ride, I see?
0:40:35 > 0:40:37I was feeling a fool not offering to drive you up here.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Oh, don't worry about it.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43Matilda, Hal, this is Lloyd,
0:40:43 > 0:40:47he's my uncle's lawyer, and Ed, who looks after the place.
0:40:47 > 0:40:49We already met. More or less.
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Come in for that drink, eh?
0:40:51 > 0:40:52If you've got time.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Well, I've been pinching myself all morning,
0:41:04 > 0:41:06but it looks like it's all still here.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11You know, if you need a place to stay,
0:41:11 > 0:41:12I've got eight bedrooms upstairs
0:41:12 > 0:41:14and seven of them are free.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16- ED:- But six have been closed since your uncle's dad died.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18So they're a bit mildewy.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Well, the whole country's a bit mildewy,
0:41:20 > 0:41:22so don't let that put you off.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Erm, truth be told, I could use the company.
0:41:25 > 0:41:29It's kind of creepy staying in a big house like this all on my own.
0:41:29 > 0:41:30Yeah, well, I must head off soon,
0:41:30 > 0:41:32so perhaps we could progress the formalities.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34Ed, hand over the keys.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39- ED:- All right. You've got two sets for the house...
0:41:39 > 0:41:40We don't even know this guy.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43You're not seriously thinking of staying, are you?
0:41:43 > 0:41:45My mum kept a photo of this house.
0:41:45 > 0:41:46I want to have a look around.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49- NICK:- How far back does the property go?
0:41:49 > 0:41:5150 yards past the tree line.
0:41:51 > 0:41:52I can show you tomorrow.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59Old Mr Dean, your uncle's dad, he loved those woods.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01Some say he's still out there,
0:42:01 > 0:42:02walking around.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05- What, his ghost? - It's rubbish, all right?
0:42:05 > 0:42:08Whatever's in those woods has been there a lot longer than Mr Dean.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31- HAL SIGHS - Mm-mm-mm!
0:42:35 > 0:42:36Spacious.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54FOOTSTEPS RECEDE
0:43:00 > 0:43:03How does one tell which are the mildewy rooms?
0:43:06 > 0:43:08It seems you simply follow your nose.
0:43:09 > 0:43:10Locked.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12Narrows it down.
0:43:27 > 0:43:29- DOOR SLAMS - No.
0:43:32 > 0:43:34You're angry with me.
0:43:34 > 0:43:36Angry? Why would I be?
0:43:36 > 0:43:37Fine.
0:43:37 > 0:43:39- So who gets what?- Well,
0:43:39 > 0:43:42I wouldn't dream of allowing the lady to brave the mildew,
0:43:42 > 0:43:45so why don't you take the large room downstairs?
0:43:50 > 0:43:51Your bag's already in there.
0:43:53 > 0:43:55- HE GUFFAWS - See you later.
0:43:57 > 0:43:59Assuming I'm not struck down with consumption.
0:44:10 > 0:44:12So when you said it was a trust,
0:44:12 > 0:44:15I thought you meant it was a tax thing.
0:44:15 > 0:44:19Well, people do establish trusts for reasons of tax minimisation.
0:44:19 > 0:44:24But not Ewan. For him, it was all about keeping the estate intact.
0:44:24 > 0:44:27Hence him appointing his sister as trustee.
0:44:27 > 0:44:29And that's Meredith, the wheelchair lady?
0:44:29 > 0:44:33Yes, she lives up at the old hunting lodge, on your property.
0:44:33 > 0:44:35So if Ewan wanted her running the place,
0:44:35 > 0:44:37why didn't he just leave it all to her?
0:44:37 > 0:44:40Well, you are the next in the direct male line
0:44:40 > 0:44:42and Ewan could be a bit of a stickler when it came to that sort
0:44:42 > 0:44:45of thing. Now, look, it's getting late and the road's a bit tricky
0:44:45 > 0:44:47- in the dark, so...- OK. Er, one more thing.
0:44:47 > 0:44:50It was kind of expensive getting out here,
0:44:50 > 0:44:53so I was hoping to access some cash.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55Well, you are the sole beneficiary of the trust, so in a sense,
0:44:55 > 0:44:58it's all yours. Only catch is, as trustee,
0:44:58 > 0:45:01your great-aunt Meredith must sign off on any expenditure,
0:45:01 > 0:45:04so I expect you want to talk to her.
0:45:04 > 0:45:08Are you planning on staying in Penllynith?
0:45:08 > 0:45:10Can't hurt.
0:45:10 > 0:45:11Get to know the territory.
0:45:46 > 0:45:49WHISPERING AND FLUTTERING
0:46:23 > 0:46:26I'm supposed to protect you from that sort of rubbish.
0:46:29 > 0:46:30It's not your fault.
0:46:30 > 0:46:31It's my job.
0:46:34 > 0:46:35I will do better.
0:46:38 > 0:46:42If you ever see or hear from those people, just come straight to me.
0:46:42 > 0:46:43You understand?
0:46:45 > 0:46:46Rosie?
0:46:48 > 0:46:49Hm.
0:46:51 > 0:46:54Well, I'll make some dinner.
0:46:56 > 0:47:00And I'll telephone her, Rosie, to apologise.
0:47:03 > 0:47:05Ewan Dean always did right by us.
0:47:20 > 0:47:21Why did you go over to her?
0:47:25 > 0:47:26At the funeral.
0:47:28 > 0:47:29She was staring.
0:47:32 > 0:47:33I wanted to know why.
0:47:56 > 0:47:58SHE SOBS
0:48:01 > 0:48:04Jesus. No wonder she freaked out.
0:48:04 > 0:48:05I just wanted to talk.
0:48:05 > 0:48:07I didn't mean to upset her.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09No, no, of course, I just meant...
0:48:09 > 0:48:13The whole thing sounds pretty bizarre, right?
0:48:13 > 0:48:16We're still hoping to talk to Rose's ex, Cerys' father.
0:48:16 > 0:48:17If we can find him.
0:48:19 > 0:48:20So your mum...
0:48:21 > 0:48:23- ..when did she...? - It happened on Tuesday night.
0:48:26 > 0:48:27Ewan was Monday night.
0:48:28 > 0:48:31And they were both fine in the morning.
0:48:31 > 0:48:32Weird.
0:48:32 > 0:48:35What's weird about it exactly?
0:48:35 > 0:48:37I mean, even if Uncle Ewan did commit suicide,
0:48:37 > 0:48:40and you don't know that he did, it's just coincidence, right?
0:48:48 > 0:48:51When I was little, I used to have this dream.
0:48:51 > 0:48:52A nightmare, really.
0:48:54 > 0:48:57And I could never remember it, not the details.
0:48:59 > 0:49:03But, um, now, the last week or two, I've been having it again.
0:49:03 > 0:49:05Well, given what you've been through...
0:49:05 > 0:49:06It started before Mum died.
0:49:08 > 0:49:09What's the dream?
0:49:12 > 0:49:13Um...
0:49:15 > 0:49:18..I'm in this narrow passage...
0:49:20 > 0:49:24..like a cellar or...
0:49:24 > 0:49:27Er...yeah, it's dark, and...
0:49:30 > 0:49:32And I've...I...
0:49:32 > 0:49:33I have a child there.
0:49:36 > 0:49:39I open a door, a trap door, there she is.
0:49:39 > 0:49:40Like she's a prisoner.
0:49:53 > 0:49:54Do you guys...
0:49:58 > 0:50:00Do you believe the dead can communicate with us?
0:50:00 > 0:50:03- HE GUFFAWS - Of course not.
0:50:03 > 0:50:06I do. I think I do.
0:50:06 > 0:50:08Well, what if the dream's a message?
0:50:09 > 0:50:11What if Carys was murdered and now she's...
0:50:11 > 0:50:13Is trying to tell you something.
0:50:13 > 0:50:14Come on, it's just a dream.
0:50:54 > 0:50:56BUZZING
0:51:08 > 0:51:11SCREAMING
0:51:13 > 0:51:16SLAMMING
0:51:32 > 0:51:34Er, what's going on?
0:51:34 > 0:51:36What you doing up here?
0:51:36 > 0:51:38Tilly.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40SLAMMING NOISE CONTINUES
0:51:43 > 0:51:45What's that noise?
0:51:52 > 0:51:53NOISE GETS LOUDER
0:51:53 > 0:51:56Might be worth closing the door before bed.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59Also, a lock's not a bad idea either.
0:52:03 > 0:52:05I've been here before.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08Matilda.
0:52:08 > 0:52:09M... W-Wait.
0:52:12 > 0:52:14What are you doing?
0:52:14 > 0:52:16Are you all right?
0:52:22 > 0:52:24- Bloody hell.- How did you know that was there?
0:52:48 > 0:52:52Did Ed mention anything about this when he gave you the house tour?
0:52:52 > 0:52:53I think I'd remember.
0:53:11 > 0:53:13I wonder how long this place has been closed up.
0:53:22 > 0:53:23These tapes are dated.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29This last one's March 1994.
0:53:29 > 0:53:32That's the month that Carys disappeared.
0:53:32 > 0:53:34CLICK, WHIRRING
0:53:50 > 0:53:52What the hell was that?
0:54:56 > 0:54:59BUZZING
0:54:59 > 0:55:02SHE GASPS
0:55:02 > 0:55:03What is it?
0:55:09 > 0:55:10It's me.
0:55:16 > 0:55:17I'm the girl.
0:55:21 > 0:55:22I'm Carys.
0:55:56 > 0:55:59RATTLING
0:56:03 > 0:56:07It's a funny place, Penllynith, a powerful place, but odd.
0:56:07 > 0:56:10I can't remember a single thing from before I was five,
0:56:10 > 0:56:11except this house.
0:56:11 > 0:56:13- How can that be?- We'll find out.
