0:08:46 > 0:08:49Don't you think you even owe your men an apology?
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- They're getting the money they're owed.- No, not the money.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54More the fact you were about to get them to dig up polluted ground,

0:09:29 > 0:09:32- Eh?- With Alex.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34You better watch what you're getting into here.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Ma, I'm a big girl, I can look out for myself.
0:09:36 > 0:09:41But you don't really know what Alex is doing here.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- That's the whole point, isn't it, Ma?- What?
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Nobody knows that Alex has done anything,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- yet you're very quick to condemn him.- Kelly, wisen up.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55This chromium stuff gives you cancer. I mean, how do you think I got it?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57It could be everywhere in Shieldinch! You don't know!
0:09:57 > 0:10:00No, I don't know but neither do you, Ma,
0:10:00 > 0:10:03and I don't think it's very helpful saying stuff like that.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06You'll create panic where there's none needed.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- You're defending him. - I'm not defending him.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12You're defending him.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15We've all got a right to be worried.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18I've got a right to be worried about my family.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21I'm just saying we don't know the whole story.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26Who's we? You and Eileen? What's she been doing exactly?
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Not a lot, from what I can see.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29Well, I'm sure Eileen has been
0:10:29 > 0:10:32finding out about it the day, just like us.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34- And I'm sure she's going to deal with it.- Aye, well,
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- I'll no' be holding my breath.- Ma, Eileen cares about the community.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Aye, well, why doesn't she just stand up and show it?
0:10:40 > 0:10:42I'm away to my work.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- And Eileen wasn't involved in a cover-up?- She wasn't, Murray.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Pardon my scepticism, but why does it take a reporter
0:11:06 > 0:11:08to force the issue instead of our local councillor?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- Think what you like. - I thought Eileen would have
0:11:11 > 0:11:13stepped into the breach, fought for our community.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16I don't care what you say, this proves there's a cover-up going on.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Can you not just be glad that this expose is doing its job?
0:11:19 > 0:11:21At least this puts the brakes on any development.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Funnily enough, when you've been branded a pariah
0:11:24 > 0:11:27in your own community, it's hard to feel glad about anything.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39No, I'm sorry, I'm not sure when the councillor's going to be back.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42But I will pass on that message, yes, of course I will.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24We're counting on him to be straight with us.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27We're not counting on him for anything. This is my development.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31- Oh, God. Why did I sign that report? - Alan, look at me.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Calm down, OK.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Aye.
0:13:39 > 0:13:45Good. In the meantime, let's talk through what needs to be done.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48We need to show our investors there's no panic.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Sure.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Let's put this back on.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58'thank you for your time today.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01'I just want to clarify, this chemist, Mr Eric Turnbull,
0:14:01 > 0:14:04'it was he who produced the original ground report stating that the
0:14:04 > 0:14:06'land was uncontaminated?'
0:14:06 > 0:14:07That's correct.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10But now the Clyde Enquirer's survey confirms that the ground
0:14:10 > 0:14:11in Shieldinch is, in fact, contaminated.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13How would you respond to that?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16We intend to investigate this issue thoroughly.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19We are also obliged to commission our own report for corroboration.
0:14:19 > 0:14:20So does that mean you're
0:14:20 > 0:14:23not entirely convinced by this new report?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25No, no, no, it's not that, it's just simply that
0:14:25 > 0:14:28the authorities will need a second opinion.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Does the disappearance of the chemist Mr Eric Turnbull
0:14:31 > 0:14:33'point to his culpability?
0:14:33 > 0:14:37'I won't be drawn on conjecture or pre-judge anyone.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39'So who, in fact, employed Mr Turnbull?
0:14:39 > 0:14:41'I believe that was the province of Alan Lindsay,
0:14:41 > 0:14:43'the building contractor.'
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I told you! He's dropping me in it, I told you he would!
0:14:45 > 0:14:46Hang on, just listen.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48'What did Mr McAllister have to say about the chemist
0:14:48 > 0:14:50'and this allegedly bogus ground report?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53'How much did he know about the chemist before engaging him?
0:14:53 > 0:14:55'I really don't think this is the forum to discuss
0:14:55 > 0:14:58'whether Mr Turnbull has a case to answer.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01'I really wouldn't want to prejudice any legal proceedings.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03'So you think legal proceedings are a possibility?
0:15:03 > 0:15:04'I can't decide that,
0:15:04 > 0:15:09'but there are aspects to this affair that we must shed light on.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11'And would the developer be key to that, then?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14'Alex McAllister and I will have a full and frank discussion...'
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Where's the denial? We're being set up here.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19'What is your message to the people of Shieldinch today?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22'I'd like to reassure everyone in Shieldinch the council
0:15:22 > 0:15:23'takes these things very seriously
0:15:23 > 0:15:26'and there will be a thorough investigation.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27'No stone will be left unturned

0:15:30 > 0:15:33'OK, Councillor Paton, thanks very much for your time.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45- For God's sake, relax.- Relax?
0:15:45 > 0:15:48He more or less just bad-mouthed the pair of us live on telly!
0:15:48 > 0:15:50I told you, I'm not a soft touch.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52KNOCKING
0:15:52 > 0:15:54I could go to jail for this.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56You won't. I'll deal with Paton.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00He's crossed the wrong guy.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Frank paid Turnbull to disappear, he must have.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05And now he's making out me and Turnbull are thick as thieves.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10- I'm not sure. Turnbull could've leaked this.- Why would he?
0:16:10 > 0:16:11I don't know...
0:16:11 > 0:16:15Either way, confirms what I've already been thinking.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17What?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19That I should come clean before this gets any worse.
0:16:19 > 0:16:20Come clean?
0:16:21 > 0:16:25Look, Alex, I'm worried what might happen if this comes out.
0:16:25 > 0:16:26I've got two kids, I can't just...
0:16:26 > 0:16:30You come clean, the police get brought in and we all go down.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32We are fighting for survival here.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35If this sticks to us, we're both finished.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Let me just get hold of Frank.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39He's a loose cannon right now.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42I'll let you know what's happening.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34You drinking then?
0:17:34 > 0:17:35Just a small one.
0:17:37 > 0:17:38I saw the news.
0:17:41 > 0:17:42It's pretty bad, eh?
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Aye.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45You all right?
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- Fine.- You don't normally drink during the day.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Well, I've got a lot of time on my hands.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Right, I'm out of here.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Of course, I understand the stakes,
0:18:17 > 0:18:20but rest assured there'll be no blame or recriminations
0:18:20 > 0:18:23laid at our door. Of course I will, bye.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Not when you can pile them up at my door instead.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Just give us a minute, will you?
0:18:29 > 0:18:33- I was just about to call you. - To tell me how the interview went?
0:18:33 > 0:18:36It's OK, I caught it. Cheers for the ringing endorsement, by the way.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40- You know the drill, Alex. - No, I'm done, I want out.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42You've just got to sidestep the direct questions.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45I couldn't not do the interview. The heat's on me from upstairs.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47It was a damage-limitation strategy.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49OK, right. Here's my take.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54I think Turnbull was your go-to guy to smooth things over and now that's
0:18:54 > 0:18:57been blown wide open, you're trying to dump me and Alan in it.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59- Correct me if I'm getting things wrong here.- You're very wrong.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03I also did the interview to present a calm front to the shareholders.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04And while they're all being very calm,
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- I'm getting dragged off to jail? - That's not a possibility...
0:19:07 > 0:19:09It is from where I'm standing!
0:19:09 > 0:19:12If we'd just come clean about this in the first place like I wanted,
0:19:12 > 0:19:14we wouldn't be in this mess!
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Alex, calm yourself.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19We can come up with a strategy.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23How the hell did this get out, anyway? Did Turnbull leak this?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26I honestly don't know. Turnbull is a compulsive gambler.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30He might've been paid big by Millar and scarpered, who the hell knows.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33You knew that about him yet you still get him to do the ground report?
0:19:33 > 0:19:37It'd worked out in the past. We've only got one option now.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41I'm listening.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44You need to remediate the land.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47What planet are you on?
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Have any idea how many millions it would take
0:19:50 > 0:19:55- to cleanse that land thoroughly? It could take years!- You can do it.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58The bottom line is the building work's delayed for a year,
0:19:58 > 0:20:02maybe two. We can get a tax break to cover some of the costs as well.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Are you being serious? I don't have access to that kind of cash.
0:20:05 > 0:20:09Luckily, we have an investor who has and he won't ask too many questions.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Who?
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Lenny Murdoch.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- You better be kidding. - He's got the cash flow.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Because he's a crook! That's why!
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- This isn't happening. Absolutely not. - He's already an investor.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29He's in for 5%. Under the radar, of course.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34You brought Lenny Murdoch into my development
0:20:34 > 0:20:36even though you know what I think of him.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Lenny is a way out of this situation and that gets my vote.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I sounded him out. He's keen in principle.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47You honestly think it's fine to clean up this mess with dirty money
0:20:47 > 0:20:49when the press are all over us?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51No-one will ever know it came from Lenny.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53He will.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56And see that? That is the most dangerous thing of all.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59Well, give me an alternative.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09You trust him?
0:21:11 > 0:21:15- He seems as keen as us to make it good.- Do you trust him?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20We'll be OK.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Remediation takes a long time, does it not?
0:21:28 > 0:21:34- I looked into it. Depends on the level of pollution.- How long?
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- A year, maybe more.- What?- We won't really know until it gets under way.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40I am committed to the hilt here, Alex, you know that.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43We all are, that's why we've got to stick together to see this through.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46I need a timescale, I need to know what's what.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50- I could end up on the street with nothing.- Panic, we don't need.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53You're no' listening to me! I'm up to my neck here!
0:21:53 > 0:21:55And what about mine?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Nobody is in for more than me, or are you forgetting that?
0:21:58 > 0:22:01No, but you see what I'm saying?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06This goes on the back burner for a year and I am finished!
0:22:07 > 0:22:12Alan, I need you to stand with me 100% on this.
0:22:16 > 0:22:17Will you do that?
0:22:42 > 0:22:43PHONE RINGS
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Hello, how are you?
0:22:46 > 0:22:50Hello, Councillor Donachie's office, how can I help you?
0:23:12 > 0:23:16Could you hold the line for two minutes, please? Thanks.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Right, what do you want?
0:23:18 > 0:23:21- I'd like to speak with Councillor Donachie.- She's not here right now.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25- She be back soon?- No, she's working from home, I think.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- That's Montego Street, right? - Well, she's actually not there
0:23:28 > 0:23:30cos she needs to pick up her boy from nursery.
0:23:30 > 0:23:35Oh, OK. I'll catch her later then. Bye.
0:23:45 > 0:23:46PHONE RINGS
0:23:49 > 0:23:50Hi, Kelly-Marie.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Eileen, that reporter, Millar, he's just left here.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55I think he's on his way to you.
0:24:11 > 0:24:12I understand your concern
0:24:12 > 0:24:15but all I can do at this stage is just pass that message on to her.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Uh-huh.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19As I say, she'll be back later, so,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22yeah, I will make sure that she gets that.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Thanks. Bye.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Hiya.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Why haven't you returned any of my calls?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31I was in a meeting
0:24:31 > 0:24:34and I thought I'd rather talk to you about this in person.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Well, do you know, Alex, you're making me look really stupid here?
0:24:38 > 0:24:40I'm defending you and I don't even know why I'm doing it.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43I knew nothing about this, I swear.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46I'm not sure I believe you.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Honestly, Kelly, this has taken me completely by surprise.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51What? That you've been found out?
0:24:51 > 0:24:53I don't know what's happened here.
0:24:53 > 0:24:58I spoke to Frank Paton earlier and we're going to get this investigated.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Something is rotten about all of this.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04OK, right, I admit I've been naive.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08I've put my trust in people that probably I shouldn't have.
0:25:09 > 0:25:14Alex, all I'm asking is that you don't lie to me here.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Cut me some slack here, eh?
0:25:16 > 0:25:18What do you mean cut you some slack?
0:25:18 > 0:25:21My own son could be affected by this.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23My mum had cancer three years ago.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25I mean, this is right on our doorstep.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29- Can you no' understand how I feel here?- I do, I do.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32I just mean that in property deals it's all too common to get
0:25:32 > 0:25:36caught up in other people's agendas. And that's what's happened here.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Where's Eileen?
0:25:45 > 0:25:46She'll be in later.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51What's she saying?
0:25:51 > 0:25:52Alex, you cannae ask me that.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55I will make this right, I promise.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Yeah, well, you better, or else we're going nowhere.
0:26:01 > 0:26:02- Don't say that.- No, I mean it.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06PHONE RINGS Kelly, this isn't about us.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Hello, Eileen Donachie's office, how can I help you?
0:26:10 > 0:26:12No, like I said, she's not here at the moment.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15She will be in later so if you want to leave a message, then...
0:26:18 > 0:26:23Yeah, well, that's fine, you can phone back later as well.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Right, I'll pass it on. Thanks, bye.
0:26:32 > 0:26:37Excuse me, I don't suppose you know where Councillor Donachie lives?
0:26:37 > 0:26:39Aye, that's it over in there.
0:26:41 > 0:26:42Cheers, mate.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51KNOCKING
0:26:52 > 0:26:54KNOCKING
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- Eileen, the door.- Liz, don't. - What?- Liz, don't!
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- Is Councillor Donachie in? - Was she not in her office?
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Councillor. We're doing a follow-up story
0:27:04 > 0:27:06and I'd like your comments on developments.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08I'm sorry, I can't, I need to get to my office.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10- I just need a few minutes. - I need to go.- What's going on?
0:27:10 > 0:27:14- What's wrong with that lassie? - I don't know.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18Councillor. Councillor! A few moments of your time's all I need.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21How dare you barge into my father's home like that?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23You're a councillor and this is a matter of public interest.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26My father is a vulnerable man. That was an invasion of his privacy!
0:27:26 > 0:27:31- I'll be speaking to your editor about your behaviour.- By all means.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34So, what is your response to the dangerous chromium levels?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Well, I'm concerned like everyone else that lives in Shieldinch.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Concerned. And will your concern lead to
0:27:42 > 0:27:45the condemnation of the developer, Alex McAllister?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47I'll need to know more of what's gone on here.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49I think I made that pretty clear in my article.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52I can't proceed on the basis of a newspaper article. I need the facts.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55OK, what about the fact that Mr McAllister
0:27:55 > 0:27:58and Councillor Paton have a case to answer?
0:27:58 > 0:28:00I don't see that is a fact.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02You don't agree that they've got a case to answer?
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Is this a question of councillors closing ranks
0:28:05 > 0:28:08- in the face of an investigation? - You're a weasel.
0:28:10 > 0:28:11Can I quote on you that?
0:28:14 > 0:28:17I should have known you'd invested in my development
0:28:17 > 0:28:22through a third party. I should've known it was through Bob Adams.
0:28:22 > 0:28:25With his two-bit garage. He'd never have that kind of money.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29You'd think you're doing me the favour.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30You're lucky I'm even here.
0:28:30 > 0:28:37Oh? What, you don't want my money? Too tainted for you, is it?
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Tell you what, get yourself down the building society, I'm sure
0:28:40 > 0:28:44they're falling over themselves to put money into contaminated land.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- I've got a lot of investors to pay off.- My heart bleeds for you.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50You're rolling out a multi-million quid development and you want me
0:28:50 > 0:28:53to feel sorry for you? I'm taking all the risks here.
0:28:55 > 0:28:59So, you just come in for the atmosphere?
0:28:59 > 0:29:00I mean it, Lenny.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04No-one ever knows where this money comes from.
0:29:08 > 0:29:09We got a deal?
0:29:09 > 0:29:12- With one proviso.- What's that?
0:29:12 > 0:29:15You stay out of my relationship with Kelly-Marie.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17- Oh, it's a relationship now, is it? - I mean it.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23You think Kelly listens to a word I say?
0:29:26 > 0:29:27Aye, all right.
0:29:32 > 0:29:33Deal?
0:29:35 > 0:29:36Deal.
0:29:41 > 0:29:42PHONE RINGS
0:29:59 > 0:30:01RINGING CONTINUES
0:30:02 > 0:30:06Eileen, are you OK?
0:30:07 > 0:30:09Why did I ever become a councillor?
0:30:11 > 0:30:15Well, because... you care about people
0:30:15 > 0:30:18and you care about your community,
0:30:18 > 0:30:21- and you're a really good councillor. - I wish that was true.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28RINGING STOPS
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Eileen, that is not true.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35And, you know, I know you might be feeling the pressure the now,
0:30:35 > 0:30:39but everyone round here knows that you're going to stand up for them.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41That journalist, what was it he wanted?
0:30:42 > 0:30:44It was about Alex, wasn't it?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Partly.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50Eileen, I don't want my relationship with Alex
0:30:50 > 0:30:52to stop you from doing your job.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54I'd hate that.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58Thanks, Kelly-Marie, but it's not as simple as that.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04Look, I'm sorry I have to do this, but this is all the messages
0:31:04 > 0:31:06from the journalists,
0:31:06 > 0:31:08and some from local people worried about the chromium.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11- I can deal with them if you want. - No, it's fine.
0:31:13 > 0:31:17You don't want me here when you're talking to the journalists.
0:31:17 > 0:31:18No, it's not that...
0:31:18 > 0:31:20It's fine, I'll just pop out.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Kelly-Marie, you've done enough today, just go home.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26- Are you sure?- Yeah.
0:31:51 > 0:31:52Hey, Kel!
0:31:55 > 0:31:57What's your boss saying to the headlines?
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Is she going to take on the developers?
0:31:59 > 0:32:01I'm not Eileen's spokesperson.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03I'm just asking as a concerned taxpayer.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05Aye, cos you're renowned for your community spirit.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Yeah, what have I ever done round here, eh?
0:32:07 > 0:32:10Apart from keeping the pub afloat, saving the cafe,
0:32:10 > 0:32:13- giving you all cheap taxis? - They all made you money.
0:32:13 > 0:32:14Is that a crime?
0:32:16 > 0:32:17How's Alex taking it?
0:32:19 > 0:32:20You tell me?
0:32:22 > 0:32:24Seems like a nice guy.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28He'll do all right.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30You've changed your tune.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32We had our differences. Young blood, you know.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Reminds me of myself.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37Alex is nothing like you.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39You'd be surprised.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21MOBILE VIBRATES
0:33:29 > 0:33:30Hello?
0:33:34 > 0:33:36What? Now?
0:33:51 > 0:33:52I'm not doing it.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Don't be like that, Eileen.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58This journalist has been hounding me,
0:33:58 > 0:34:01I just need to keep my head below the parapet for now.
0:34:01 > 0:34:08But you can't, can you? Your community's expecting a response.
0:34:08 > 0:34:14And this chromium issue, you need to reassure the residents
0:34:14 > 0:34:17and I need you to stick to the party line.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22Look, Frank, please don't make me do this.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24I can't make you.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26But if I don't...?
0:34:29 > 0:34:33It's just a half hour of your time, it's not much to ask.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Right, I'll arrange for the press to take your statement.
0:34:56 > 0:35:00'Please leave a message for Alex McAllister after the tone.'
0:35:00 > 0:35:03PHONE BEEPS
0:35:05 > 0:35:07'Please leave a message.'
0:35:13 > 0:35:17- 'Please leave a message for Alex...' - HANGS UP
0:35:42 > 0:35:44Mrs Turnbull, I'm looking for your husband.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Please don't! I'll call the police!
0:35:46 > 0:35:48- I don't know anything! - But I need to talk to him!
0:35:48 > 0:35:51He's not been in touch with me, I've no idea know where he is,
0:35:51 > 0:35:53now will you just please go?
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Mrs Turnbull, I have two kids, and right now,
0:35:55 > 0:35:57I'm carrying the can for your husband.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00- Does that not bother you?!- I'm sorry, but this has nothing to do with me.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02I'm facing complete financial ruin
0:36:02 > 0:36:04if the blame for that report falls on me!
0:36:04 > 0:36:05What can I do?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08If it falls on me, then I go to jail!
0:36:08 > 0:36:11What would happen to my kids then?!
0:36:11 > 0:36:13- Please, help me! - I wish I could help you!
0:36:13 > 0:36:15But he never told me anything about what he was doing.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17You must know something!
0:36:17 > 0:36:20He's been dealing with the wrong people for too long.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Who? Paton? Please, tell me what you know!
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Look, all I know is that Eric made my life a misery,
0:36:28 > 0:36:31and now he's disappeared, but my nightmare goes on.
0:36:31 > 0:36:35I'm up to my eyes in debt and this house will have to be sold.
0:36:37 > 0:36:38Sorry.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41It's fine, I hope you find what you need.
0:37:08 > 0:37:13MOBILE ON DESK VIBRATES
0:37:19 > 0:37:21I mean, obviously I don't know the guy.
0:37:21 > 0:37:22But I cannae knock him.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24I mean, he gave me a job when I was on my knees.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Aye, well. I don't trust him.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28That's enough, eh?
0:37:31 > 0:37:32Murray.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Jimmy, can I get you a pint?
0:37:37 > 0:37:38No, I'm all right.
0:37:39 > 0:37:40Anyone else?
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Fine. Pint, Stevie, please.
0:37:49 > 0:37:50No bother.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Come on, let's go!
0:38:02 > 0:38:06Are you going on again? Having a good time?
0:38:33 > 0:38:35Look, I agree, it's an absolute scandal,
0:38:35 > 0:38:39but that doesn't change the fact that Shieldinch needs real investment.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42Well, you're in their camp, there's so no surprises there.
0:38:42 > 0:38:46Hey! That's below the belt. I'm just trying to earn a living here.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Listen to you all, have you all been brainwashed?
0:38:50 > 0:38:53There's poison beneath our feet,
0:38:54 > 0:38:58McAllister would rather we didn't know about it.
0:38:58 > 0:38:59Our lives could have been in danger!
0:38:59 > 0:39:01Take it easy, Murray, eh?
0:39:01 > 0:39:05Take it easy? McAllister's right hand man gets me branded a pervert.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09The only guy that's standing up to them. Is that a coincidence?
0:39:09 > 0:39:11It seems to me that you're using this land scandal
0:39:11 > 0:39:14- as a cover for your own predicament. - Scarlett!
0:39:14 > 0:39:17And how does that work? I'm sticking my neck out, not hiding.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22All right, let's hear it Scarlett,
0:39:22 > 0:39:26do you think I did what that girl said?
0:39:26 > 0:39:27I don't know.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31Scarlett, you do know! You know me! You all know me!
0:39:31 > 0:39:35Aye well, maybe there's no smoke without fire.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40And that's what you all think?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43There's been tons of folk up in court recently,
0:39:43 > 0:39:46folk that you wouldn't think would be capable of...that.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49Some of them were serial sex offenders!
0:39:49 > 0:39:50And who's to say you aren't?
0:39:50 > 0:39:55Some were perfectly innocent victims of lies and fabrications!
0:39:55 > 0:39:57And can you prove you're not a pervert?
0:39:57 > 0:39:59- Just drop it, all right! - Oh! Here we go!
0:40:03 > 0:40:05Large whisky, please.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Serve the man.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13His money's good.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16Nae bother.
0:40:19 > 0:40:20You got a problem?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23You're lucky you're getting served.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28Thanks.
0:40:32 > 0:40:33Has Eileen been in?
0:40:33 > 0:40:34No, she's not.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Everything OK, Raymond?
0:40:39 > 0:40:43Shocking, isn't it? I mean, he'll think...
0:40:48 > 0:40:50What's going on?
0:40:50 > 0:40:51We've been told by the council
0:40:51 > 0:40:54some kind of statement's being made about the development.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56- Who's making the statement? - They didn't say.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58What did you say to Eileen?
0:40:58 > 0:41:01You gave me this story, what did you expect me to do?
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Give everyone a free ride?
0:41:03 > 0:41:05No, but I didn't expect any unnecessary harassment.
0:41:36 > 0:41:37Eileen!
0:41:39 > 0:41:41- She looks terrible. - What's going on?
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Eileen's going to give a statement.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45It's about time.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51In light of today's worrying news about the redevelopment
0:41:51 > 0:41:54I thought it appropriate, on behalf of the council,
0:41:54 > 0:41:57to inform the people of Shieldinch
0:41:57 > 0:42:00of our intentions in dealing with this pollution problem.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02It's a scandal.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04CROWD MURMURS
0:42:04 > 0:42:09My initial investigations into this report have led me to the conclusion
0:42:09 > 0:42:13that the author, Mr Eric Turnbull,
0:42:13 > 0:42:17demonstrated an incompetence and a dereliction of duty
0:42:17 > 0:42:20which is, quite frankly, appalling.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22He has now been officially removed
0:42:22 > 0:42:27from the city council's approved contractors list.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29And I'm delighted to announce
0:42:29 > 0:42:32that after consultations with the developer Mr Alex McAllister
0:42:32 > 0:42:35we have come to a positive arrangement for moving forward.
0:42:37 > 0:42:42And I now call on Mr McAllister to outline our intentions.
0:42:43 > 0:42:48My primary concern has always been to keep the development on track
0:42:48 > 0:42:51and provide job opportunities for local people.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54But not at the risk of health and safety.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57And this is why I can assure everyone here today
0:42:57 > 0:43:00that your concerns are also mine.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03I can announce that my company, the McAllister Group,
0:43:03 > 0:43:07will provide and pay for a full remediation of the polluted land
0:43:07 > 0:43:10and that I personally will put myself at the disposal
0:43:10 > 0:43:12of the people of Shieldinch
0:43:12 > 0:43:16with further consultations on what we all want from this development.
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Today marks a new beginning,
0:43:18 > 0:43:20and can I just say how delighted I am
0:43:20 > 0:43:22at the prospect of a fruitful collaboration
0:43:22 > 0:43:24with the local councillor? Thank you.
0:43:24 > 0:43:26She's a traitor! CROWD MURMURS
0:43:26 > 0:43:28Watch it, Murray!
0:43:28 > 0:43:31Councillor, will there be a full investigation?
0:43:31 > 0:43:34Mr McAllister, can you tell me where Eric Turnbull is?
0:43:34 > 0:43:36That's enough.
0:43:36 > 0:43:39- You proud of yourself, Eileen? - CROWD ALL SHOUT
0:43:39 > 0:43:41I was wondering if you had any further comments
0:43:41 > 0:43:44on the disastrous start to this development.
0:43:44 > 0:43:46I don't see it as disastrous, I see it as a setback,
0:43:46 > 0:43:50but I see that we're very much on top of the situation now.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54What happened? I thought you were going to lie low?
0:43:54 > 0:43:57- Paton summoned me to his office. - Summoned?
0:43:57 > 0:43:59- I didn't have a choice. - He threatened you?
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Everything the man says sounds like a threat.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05I should tell this to Millar, expose these scumbags...
0:44:05 > 0:44:06This has all happened
0:44:06 > 0:44:08because you spoke to that man in the first place!
0:44:08 > 0:44:10Do you even understand that?!
0:44:10 > 0:44:12But we can't let them get away with it, that's what I'm saying!
0:44:12 > 0:44:14We need to make sure that...
0:44:14 > 0:44:21Oh, Raymond, can you just go?! Leave me in peace! Go!
0:44:46 > 0:44:50Did you know about this? The chromium?
0:44:51 > 0:44:52No. Of course not.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55Me and my family went through hell!
0:44:55 > 0:44:58I know, and this remediation,
0:44:58 > 0:45:01it'll make sure that nothing like this ever happens again.
0:45:01 > 0:45:05Will it? What's happened to you, Eileen?
0:45:05 > 0:45:10Nothing, I'm just doing what I've always done,
0:45:10 > 0:45:13trying to do the best for Shieldinch.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16You can't believe this development is for the best!
0:45:16 > 0:45:19This is the kind of thing you'd have fought in the past!
0:45:19 > 0:45:22You've changed, and not for the better!
0:45:48 > 0:45:50What's happened, Eileen?
0:45:50 > 0:45:52We saw you on the news.
0:45:52 > 0:45:57You're not going to let this stand, are you?
0:45:57 > 0:45:58Are you all right, darling?
0:46:33 > 0:46:36SOBS
0:46:57 > 0:46:59Yeah, so all in all, it went well.
0:46:59 > 0:47:05Frank, sorry, I need to go. We'll talk later. Bye.
0:47:05 > 0:47:08Why didn't you tell me you were making a statement?
0:47:08 > 0:47:11I was going to call you. But it all happened very fast.
0:47:11 > 0:47:12I thought Paton was handling this.
0:47:12 > 0:47:15Why is Eileen Donachie involved in it again?
0:47:15 > 0:47:18We thought it would be a good idea if she fronted it,
0:47:18 > 0:47:19it takes the weight off us.
0:47:19 > 0:47:22Paton's at it. I take it this was his idea?
0:47:22 > 0:47:25He's taking the piss out of you and you're making it easy for him.
0:47:25 > 0:47:28Alan, honestly, it's not how it is.
0:47:33 > 0:47:38- I went to see Turnbull's wife today. - Why?
0:47:38 > 0:47:40To see if she knew where he was.
0:47:40 > 0:47:42Nobody else is looking for him, why shouldn't I?
0:47:42 > 0:47:45I was the one made to sign that report.
0:47:45 > 0:47:47No matter what, we need to stay out of that.
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Paton knows more about that than he's letting on.
0:47:50 > 0:47:53It's a bit convenient, Turnbull just vanishing, do you not think?
0:47:53 > 0:47:55Seriously. Stay out of it.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58Then you make sure he doesn't drop us in it any further!
0:48:03 > 0:48:05I was going to bring this round for you.
0:48:05 > 0:48:07- What is it? - A small retainer.
0:48:08 > 0:48:12Alex, I borrowed on the house to start the yard here.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14It's a bridging loan,
0:48:14 > 0:48:16they want paid back the minute the building started.
0:48:16 > 0:48:19- It's all I can spare right now. - I'm up to my neck in it!
0:48:19 > 0:48:22If I don't pay that back they're going to take my house!
0:48:22 > 0:48:23- We'll stall them.- How?
0:48:25 > 0:48:31Look, you've trusted me before. OK? Trust me again.
0:48:33 > 0:48:35Just hang on in there, and we'll get through this.
0:48:38 > 0:48:41Aye.
0:48:58 > 0:49:02Thanks for meeting me, I appreciate it.
0:49:04 > 0:49:06OK, well, I'm listening.
0:49:06 > 0:49:08I know how it looks.
0:49:08 > 0:49:11But what happened today is not what you think it was.
0:49:11 > 0:49:14I genuinely didn't know that what was in the soil
0:49:14 > 0:49:16could cause harm to the community.
0:49:16 > 0:49:20But I'll fix it. And the ratepayers won't pay a penny.
0:49:22 > 0:49:25Well, that's the least you could do, do you not think?
0:49:27 > 0:49:29Yeah.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32So the development still goes ahead?
0:49:32 > 0:49:35If we get the blessing of the city council,
0:49:35 > 0:49:38but I'm confident the remediation will smooth the way.
0:49:38 > 0:49:40You aren't pleased?
0:49:42 > 0:49:45I'm happy the land's getting cleaned, obviously,
0:49:45 > 0:49:47but what did you do to Eileen?
0:49:47 > 0:49:49Do to her? What do you mean?
0:49:49 > 0:49:51You know very well what I mean.
0:49:51 > 0:49:53I saw her standing next to you.
0:49:53 > 0:49:54She looked in a right state.
0:49:54 > 0:49:57Kelly, honestly, I don't know what that's about.
0:49:57 > 0:50:01I think it could have something to do with city council rivalries,
0:50:01 > 0:50:02but I can't go there.
0:50:04 > 0:50:08She's a good woman and I don't believe for one minute
0:50:08 > 0:50:09what she says in public,
0:50:09 > 0:50:12so there's got to be a reason behind it.
0:50:12 > 0:50:14Hand on heart, I don't know what that was about.
0:50:14 > 0:50:16I'm worried for her.
0:50:18 > 0:50:20You know, cos at the end of the day,
0:50:20 > 0:50:24it's Eileen that's going to get the blame for all this mess.
0:50:24 > 0:50:26I can do something about that.
0:50:26 > 0:50:28How?
0:50:28 > 0:50:30I don't know yet, but I promise you, I will try.
0:50:36 > 0:50:39What were you doing coming out of Amber Cabs today?
0:50:39 > 0:50:42And don't lie to me, I saw you leaving.
0:50:44 > 0:50:47OK, I went to see Lenny.
0:50:47 > 0:50:48What about?
0:50:51 > 0:50:52Us.
0:50:53 > 0:50:55Us? Really?
0:50:57 > 0:50:59So what did you say to him?
0:50:59 > 0:51:03Just...stay out of our lives.
0:51:03 > 0:51:05I spoke to him after.
0:51:07 > 0:51:08Did you?
0:51:08 > 0:51:12And the way he was talking, was like the two of you had become best pals.
0:51:14 > 0:51:16He's trying to turn your head.
0:51:16 > 0:51:18C'mon, Kelly, you know what he's like.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22Aye. I do know.
0:51:26 > 0:51:31TELEVISION ON
0:51:50 > 0:51:51Again?
0:51:51 > 0:51:53Correct.
0:51:54 > 0:51:58I've just seen the press conference. Were you there?
0:51:59 > 0:52:00Yep.
0:52:01 > 0:52:05Eileen Donachie's talking about the development continuing.
0:52:05 > 0:52:06Aye, it will.
0:52:06 > 0:52:10- Maybe not. - What are you talking about?
0:52:10 > 0:52:15Apparently they've already started an online petition to get rid of it.
0:52:15 > 0:52:17Is that a fact?
0:52:19 > 0:52:22Dad. What are you not telling us?
0:52:22 > 0:52:25I'm not telling you how to live your lives,
0:52:25 > 0:52:26so you can return me the favour.
0:52:26 > 0:52:28But there is something dodgy going on.
0:52:28 > 0:52:31Are you involved in this cover-up they're all talking about?
0:52:31 > 0:52:33Angus, I can't talk to you about this.
0:52:33 > 0:52:36Or do you mean you won't?
0:52:36 > 0:52:38It's stuff you wouldn't understand.
0:52:38 > 0:52:39Da', don't patronise me!
0:52:39 > 0:52:41Then don't ask me questions!
0:52:43 > 0:52:45Cool, have it your way.
0:52:59 > 0:53:01TELEVISION OFF
0:53:07 > 0:53:08How bad is all this, Dad?
0:53:09 > 0:53:12Don't worry, we'll survive.
0:53:13 > 0:53:16It's just...having to shut down the site is getting to me.
0:53:16 > 0:53:19- Is that it?- Of course.
0:53:22 > 0:53:26- It's not this Murray stuff too?- No!
0:53:30 > 0:53:33I'm so sorry you've got so much on your plate and then....
0:53:35 > 0:53:38Don't you worry about that, you hear me?
0:53:45 > 0:53:48Murray will get what's coming to him, I promise you that.
0:54:01 > 0:54:03The most important thing to me...
0:54:05 > 0:54:09..is to be a part of your life... and Cal's.
0:54:14 > 0:54:18Losing you right now would make everything else seem pointless.
0:54:22 > 0:54:24I want to make you happy.
0:54:24 > 0:54:27Will you let me?
0:54:33 > 0:54:34Will you trust me?
0:54:42 > 0:54:43I suppose.
0:54:50 > 0:54:52You can't do better than that?
0:54:55 > 0:54:56I'll work on it.
0:55:25 > 0:55:27That's all the major investors back on board.
0:55:27 > 0:55:31That's great news. Cheers.
0:55:34 > 0:55:38- We nearly crossed a line today. - What line was that?
0:55:38 > 0:55:42- The point of no return? - It's not a joke.
0:55:43 > 0:55:45Lenny could be trouble,
0:55:45 > 0:55:48so we need to remember that we're on the right side of the line.
0:55:48 > 0:55:50We took his money.
0:55:50 > 0:55:52And that's it as far as I'm concerned.
0:55:52 > 0:55:53We use him and we move on.
0:55:54 > 0:56:02Sure. Lenny'll be fine. He wants to make money, and he's going to.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05There's two of us to keep an eye on Lenny.
0:56:07 > 0:56:11Come on, Alex, did we have a realistic alternative?
0:56:13 > 0:56:16No, because you didn't give me any,

0:56:34 > 0:56:36Another drink?
0:56:40 > 0:56:43Frank, do you know where Turnbull is?
0:56:45 > 0:56:51I've got no idea. He's gone and I don't think he'll be coming back.
0:56:53 > 0:56:57You really shouldn't worry about him.
0:56:57 > 0:56:58Cheers.
0:57:05 > 0:57:07It may be best if you just...
0:57:07 > 0:57:09You want me to resign because I've been smeared?
0:57:09 > 0:57:12- He's going to get away with it... - Sure.- ..again.
0:57:12 > 0:57:14What do you mean, "again"?
0:57:14 > 0:57:17So why didn't you tell me about it, this other girl?
0:57:17 > 0:57:19Because it was nothing.
0:57:19 > 0:57:20You should've told me.
0:57:20 > 0:57:21Raymond!
0:57:21 > 0:57:23Kirsty, you need to tell the truth.
0:57:23 > 0:57:25He didn't do it, did he?
0:57:25 > 0:57:28- You can't be here. - I'm sorry.
