0:00:21 > 0:00:24I'm not backing down. I can't.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Well, if you're fine everybody knowing Raymond's a murderer
0:00:27 > 0:00:28and you're an accessory...
0:00:28 > 0:00:32I'm offering my unconditional support to this development,
0:00:32 > 0:00:34thank you.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35I need you to ask questions.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39So, who put Murdoch onto Donachie?
0:00:39 > 0:00:40I don't know.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Maybe you should speak to the man that brought Murdoch
0:00:43 > 0:00:47into the development. You'll find him at the Council Chambers.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Lenny Murdoch - friend of yours?
0:00:53 > 0:00:54It is my fault.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58I told him to go away, I told him I didn't want him any more!
0:00:58 > 0:01:00It's OK, it's OK.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01SHE SOBS
0:01:01 > 0:01:04What am I going to do? What am I going to do?
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Jake! >
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Jake! >
0:01:48 > 0:01:49Jake! >
0:01:55 > 0:01:56Jake! >
0:02:16 > 0:02:18'This little piggy got roast beef,'
0:02:18 > 0:02:22and this little piggy had none,
0:02:22 > 0:02:24and this little piggy went, "Wee wee wee wee"...
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Right, that's me ready. I've done packed lunch for Stuart for nursery.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31You sure you're going to be all right taking him?
0:02:31 > 0:02:33Oh, yes, of course, dear.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34Stuart...?
0:02:37 > 0:02:39I need to go to work!
0:03:06 > 0:03:07Eileen!
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- Is that you heading back to the office?- Yeah.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14- I would have opened up by now, but I thought I'd get you these.- Thanks.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17So. First day back. How you feeling?
0:03:19 > 0:03:20How's Stuart?
0:03:20 > 0:03:21I don't know.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24I think he realises that something's happened, but...
0:03:24 > 0:03:26I don't think he understands just what yet.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30He hasn't left my side for days.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Eileen, you sure you're ready for this?
0:03:32 > 0:03:35I can look after things for as long as it takes.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39No, you're fine, I just need to get back to some kind of normality.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Right, well, I can finish this
0:03:55 > 0:03:57through the back, but if you need me...
0:04:01 > 0:04:03It's good to see you back.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07I know it might seem hard at first, but just having that outlet...
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I know that was a big help for me when my Christine passed away.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16So what can I do for you, Frank?
0:04:17 > 0:04:19I'm really glad we had that chat the other day.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21After the funeral.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29Anyway, I've added an item to the Council agenda for later.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Myself and Councillor Greer will be briefing some of the councillors
0:04:32 > 0:04:34from this and surrounding areas.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36I'd really like you to be there.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Ronnie Greer? From Regeneration?
0:04:40 > 0:04:41Look, don't worry about it.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45From now on, I'd like you working alongside me.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48I really think we can do great things together.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05CHATTER
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Morning, everyone. Take a seat.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Thank you.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Ladies, gents. Councillor Greer.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32Many of you will be familiar with the Lowtherhill development -
0:05:32 > 0:05:36a project taking place over in Shieldinch, which is
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Councillor Donachie's ward.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42I think it's only fair to say that Eileen and myself have worked
0:05:42 > 0:05:45pretty tirelessly in support of that development.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47The new investment it was set to bring in, the new jobs...
0:05:47 > 0:05:52Eileen in particular has shown extraordinary commitment throughout.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I'd also like to commend Eileen for being here today...
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I think I can speak for everyone when I say,
0:05:59 > 0:06:02our deepest sympathy for your tragic loss.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03PEOPLE MURMUR AGREEMENT
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Now, unfortunately, though, despite our best efforts, I'm here to
0:06:07 > 0:06:12recommend that we withdraw Council support for Lowtherhill.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14I met yesterday with our Head of Regeneration
0:06:14 > 0:06:16and Development, Councillor Greer,
0:06:16 > 0:06:19and he agrees it's the best course of action to take.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22The sad fact of the matter is,
0:06:22 > 0:06:24too many mistakes were made on that project.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27And some of that must fall at my door.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31I underestimated the strength of public opposition.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36But, over and above that, I put too much faith in the developers,
0:06:36 > 0:06:38and they've badly let us down.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42So that's why I'm here, and that's the reasons why
0:06:42 > 0:06:45I'm proposing we put this to a vote.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Ronnie?
0:06:48 > 0:06:52OK, everyone. I think a simple show of hands will do.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56All those in favour of Frank's proposal to withdraw support?
0:07:00 > 0:07:01All those against?
0:07:07 > 0:07:11Very good. The motion is passed.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Now, on to item two...
0:07:23 > 0:07:24Eileen?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Ronnie.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Well, that was quite an endorsement.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32And I'd like to echo what Frank said.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34We're all very pleased to have you back.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41A shame about Lowtherhill, though. I know how hard you fought.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46Still, after what Frank told me, there was little could be done.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Yeah? What did Frank tell you?
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Well, about the failings of the team behind the development.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55The debacle over them not identifying the chromium on that land.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Once that hit the press, it was always going to be difficult
0:07:58 > 0:08:01to win the public's trust back.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Yeah, well, I'm not sure he ever deserved the public's trust
0:08:04 > 0:08:05in the first place.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09Look, I know how much that project meant to you.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I was NEVER in favour of that development.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15But you just voted against withdrawing support.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Because Frank railroaded me into getting behind it.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I could hardly give it up after publicly backing it for so long!
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Can we talk somewhere? In private.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42Eileen, what's brought this on?
0:08:42 > 0:08:45I always thought the two of you worked well together.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51I just think that, after everything that's gone on with that project,
0:08:51 > 0:08:55that there should be some sort of investigation -
0:08:55 > 0:08:58into what went wrong, into the way things were handled,
0:08:58 > 0:09:02into Frank, and exactly what he knew.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04The type of investigation you're talking about
0:09:04 > 0:09:07would have to be precipitated by a formal complaint.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11And that in itself would have to be based on some pretty serious
0:09:11 > 0:09:13evidence of misconduct on Frank's part.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Now, unless there's something I should know...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19If you have evidence of that kind?
0:09:21 > 0:09:23No.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Well, then I urge you...
0:09:25 > 0:09:28just be careful in what you say.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Because it won't do anyone any good to have you
0:09:31 > 0:09:32making unsubstantiated claims.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Eileen,
0:09:51 > 0:09:55believe me, that wasn't an easy decision to make.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57But the project has caused so many divisions,
0:09:57 > 0:10:00it just seemed like the right thing to do.
0:10:02 > 0:10:03What?
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Nothing.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Hi, Frank, I, er...I've got to dash.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13I'll speak to you later, OK?
0:10:24 > 0:10:25All right?
0:10:27 > 0:10:29I just wanted to see how you were doing.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- If you'd heard anything from the police?- Nothing.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35And I'm hoping it stays that way.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37They asked me about Donachie's blackmail allegation.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39I told them to speak to Frank.
0:10:40 > 0:10:41Good.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45Listen, you should know.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49I've been in contact with my lawyer. He's drawing up severance contracts
0:10:49 > 0:10:52so I can end my involvement in Lowtherhill.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55End it? You're not being serious.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58There's no reason why this development can't go ahead
0:10:58 > 0:10:59once remediation's complete.
0:10:59 > 0:11:00I want you with me.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04You'll need to find someone else.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08And the land your yard sits on?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10In case you've forgotten, it's still belongs to me.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Aye, well, I'd like to continue renting it.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Well, that's fine, but when the development picks up again,
0:11:15 > 0:11:17the new contractor will need a yard.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Look, I'm not going to make things difficult.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26I just wish we could start afresh. Wipe the slate clean.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29Some things you just can't wipe clean.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52PHONE RINGS
0:12:05 > 0:12:06SWITCHES PHONE OFF
0:12:20 > 0:12:22PHONE RINGS
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Mum.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41Frank is trying to wash his hands of the development.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42And if he is behind the cover-up,
0:12:42 > 0:12:45he's trying to distance himself from that now.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Not to mention what else he's responsible for.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Whoa. Just... Just be careful what you're accusing.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57The toxicology report came back.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01Raymond had taken a painkiller with alcohol.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04It all fits suicide.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11There must be something we can do.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Alan Lindsay, Alex McAllister... they must know something.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Can you not make them come forward?
0:13:17 > 0:13:20It doesn't work like that, and, technically,
0:13:20 > 0:13:22I shouldn't be having anything to do with this.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24I passed the report to Fraud, it's their case now.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29The man that wrote it, Eric Turnbull - have you spoken to him?
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Mr Turnbull is proving...difficult to locate.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Well, that in itself is significant, if he's disappeared.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Why aren't you investigating that?
0:13:39 > 0:13:40Because there's a difference
0:13:40 > 0:13:43between someone disappearing and someone choosing not to be found.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45He's not even been reported missing.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49If I could just get some firm evidence to take to the Council...
0:13:49 > 0:13:54I know, but I can't force Alan Lindsay or Alex McAllister to talk.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Maybe you can.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05Oh, there is one more thing... We have Raymond's belongings.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59I take it you've heard? Frank - he's pulling out of Lowtherhill.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03I hadn't. I told you I don't work with the development any more.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06You also told me it wasn't your idea to cover anything up.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07So whose idea was it?
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Eileen, what I said to you was...
0:15:09 > 0:15:13Look. I just... I just want to hear it from somebody.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Was it Frank's idea?
0:15:17 > 0:15:18What do you think?
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Then why?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Why did you go along with it?
0:15:24 > 0:15:25It's your name on that second report...
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Look, Frank strong-armed me, all right?
0:15:29 > 0:15:30Brought in his own man and said
0:15:30 > 0:15:33if I didn't go along with it, I'd never work in this business again.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36So you were thinking about your bank balance?
0:15:36 > 0:15:38I was thinking about how I would support my family!
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Are you willing to go on record?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Admit that it's Frank behind all this?
0:15:45 > 0:15:47To who, the police?
0:15:48 > 0:15:49No.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52OK, well, not the police. But to the Council.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55I'll make a complaint and you back me up and we can expose Frank
0:15:55 > 0:16:00once and for all. I mean, is that not what you want too?
0:16:00 > 0:16:04If he forced you into this, like you say he did?
0:16:06 > 0:16:10I'd like to help you, believe me. But what you're asking...
0:16:10 > 0:16:14to risk incriminating myself, go to jail?
0:16:14 > 0:16:15My kids.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19And what about my son?
0:16:20 > 0:16:24Don't you think he deserves to know what his dad died for?
0:16:26 > 0:16:30If you're not prepared to stand up and be even half the man that...
0:16:35 > 0:16:38There might be someone else that can help you...
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Frank's Environmental Consultant, Eric Turnbull.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44No-one's seen him since this whole thing blew up,
0:16:44 > 0:16:46but his wife might know something.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47His wife?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Raymond was in contact with her before...
0:16:52 > 0:16:55I know that's where he got the original ground report.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59That's the best I can do.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Hello, Mrs Turnbull?
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Did you know about Frank pulling council support for Lowtherhill?
0:17:59 > 0:18:00First I've heard.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03He's not answering his calls.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06So what now? He's the one holding all the big investors.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07If he walks...
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Sounds to me like it's time to cut our losses.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14You're taking this very well.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Considering the money you've already sunk into this remediation...
0:18:17 > 0:18:18You don't need to tell me.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21What do you want me to do?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Without Paton, this development's dead in the water.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28Don't worry, I'll square myself up with Frank when I see him.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31As for you and me...?
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Don't tell me - another match on Tinder.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53You know, if you swipe right all the time it doesn't mean you're popular,
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- it just means you're easy. - What are you doing back?
0:18:56 > 0:18:59School finished, like, half an hour ago. What are you doing?
0:19:01 > 0:19:02You look kind of shifty.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Nothing, I just... I didn't see you coming.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09What are you doing tomorrow lunchtime?
0:19:09 > 0:19:12I was hoping for a ride into town to get Nana's birthday present.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14You need to ask Dad. I'm too busy.
0:19:15 > 0:19:16OK.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19Look, her birthday's not till Friday. Why don't we do it then?
0:19:19 > 0:19:20Cool.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- There you go. Can I get you anything else?- No, thanks.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Mrs Turnbull?
0:19:51 > 0:19:52Yes.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54- Come and sit down.- Thanks.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- Mrs Turnbull...- Oh, Betty.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04I just want to thank you for agreeing to meet me here.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Truth is, the person I really need to speak to is your husband.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12But you said on the phone you've not seen him for months?
0:20:12 > 0:20:16- No.- And you've no idea where he is?
0:20:16 > 0:20:19No. I told the police that...
0:20:20 > 0:20:24..that Eric sometimes takes off for long periods.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30But you know, to not hear anything for so long...
0:20:34 > 0:20:37What do you know about your husband's relationship
0:20:37 > 0:20:39with Frank Paton?
0:20:39 > 0:20:45Frank? Well, Eric's worked for Frank on and off for years.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50- Hi. Can I get you anything? - Nothing, thanks.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Betty, I believe that Frank commissioned a ground report
0:20:57 > 0:21:00on some local land. It was carried out by your husband.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05But it left out the fact that there was chromium there.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Now, Frank made me blame Eric for that in the press.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11But I don't think Eric was to blame.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14I think it was Frank that had that report doctored.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Look, I would really like to help you, Mrs Donachie.
0:21:17 > 0:21:23But I'm sorry, Eric never discussed his business dealings with me.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26And besides, Frank's been really good to me.
0:21:29 > 0:21:35Eric's left debts. And Frank's helping me through some of that.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38He gave you money?
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Yes.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43He's buying you off?!
0:21:46 > 0:21:49No, Betty, Betty, Betty, Betty, please...
0:21:51 > 0:21:56Please. I'm just trying to find out what's going on here.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58The police, they've got that report now,
0:21:58 > 0:22:01but without Eric to confirm anything...
0:22:01 > 0:22:02So what do you expect me to do?
0:22:03 > 0:22:07Maybe... if you reported him missing?
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- At least they'd have to start taking it seriously.- No.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13There's a Detective - Detective Donald -
0:22:13 > 0:22:15he's at Shieldinch and Moss Green.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Just speak to him.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Please, just think about it.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26This could be our only way of tracking down your husband.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29No. I'm sorry.
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Betty!
0:22:35 > 0:22:36Betty!
0:23:09 > 0:23:11DOORBELL RINGS
0:23:29 > 0:23:31How did it go?
0:23:32 > 0:23:36She doesn't know where he is, and she won't even report him missing.
0:23:40 > 0:23:46You said, on the day of the funeral, that if I ever needed anything...
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Well, this is it.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54I need to know that what Raymond died for...
0:23:54 > 0:23:58what he was trying to uncover.... that it wasn't all for nothing.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- Eileen... - And, I don't just mean that.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05You think about what Frank has done to you. To both of us.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09He's jeopardised your business, he's ruined my reputation.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11He has to answer for all that.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Alan, I'm begging you here.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22I've got nowhere else to turn.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30You said something about the Council.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Some kind of complaints procedure.
0:24:32 > 0:24:37- How would that work? - Um, I'd have to speak to his boss.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39He'll probably want to take a statement from you.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43And that stays within the Council? I give that in private?
0:24:43 > 0:24:47- And then what? They suspend Frank? - I don't know, that'd be up to them.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49But I can't see how he'd come through this
0:24:49 > 0:24:51with his reputation intact.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54You take away his position, you'll take away his power...
0:24:59 > 0:25:03If I do this, you need to understand...
0:25:03 > 0:25:07If that statement ever gets back to the police,
0:25:07 > 0:25:09I'll deny it. I'll deny everything.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11I'll say I just made it up to help you get back at Frank.
0:25:13 > 0:25:14Thank you.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19I hope this doesn't come back on us, Eileen.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22And I don't just mean the police.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Frank's got some powerful friends.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27And he will use them to protect himself.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29We don't know what this guy's capable of.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56First we were told there was no chromium on that land,
0:25:56 > 0:25:58and then suddenly there was.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01But I didn't know for sure that Frank was behind a cover-up
0:26:01 > 0:26:03until the contractor confirmed it for me yesterday.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08And this contractor. He's prepared to testify to that effect?
0:26:08 > 0:26:11Truth is, I don't know where the police investigation is going to go.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14But, right here, right now...
0:26:14 > 0:26:17If we have somebody prepared to give evidence
0:26:17 > 0:26:20that Frank's involved in corruption, can we afford not to act?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33I understand where you're coming from.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35But, before we go ahead and make this official,
0:26:35 > 0:26:38let's just be sure we have all the facts.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Your witness...?- Alan Lindsay.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Give his details to Agnes, my secretary.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47She'll add them to the visitors' log for tomorrow,
0:26:47 > 0:26:51work up a new appointment schedule for me, and I'll speak to him then.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Just informally, you understand.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57And I'll need to reconvene with you first.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58So you can lay out your case.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Oh, and Eileen?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07What was the name of that detective you spoke to?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12I thought when you called me here,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15you'd changed your mind about the business.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17I just think, if you came with me,
0:27:17 > 0:27:20if we tell them that Frank pressured us both,
0:27:20 > 0:27:24he's less likely to hit back, the two of us standing there together.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28So you're scared for your own skin and you want to hide behind me?
0:27:28 > 0:27:30I'm sorry. There's too much at stake here.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Too much... For who?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35You do realise what I'm putting on the line here?
0:27:35 > 0:27:37I'm not just thinking of me.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39With Frank pulling support for the project,
0:27:39 > 0:27:41my whole business is at risk.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43See the land that your yard sits on,
0:27:43 > 0:27:45the land that you want to rent?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47If I go under, I'll be forced to sell it.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51So this all comes down to money.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Have you no sense of responsibility for what we've done here?
0:27:54 > 0:27:55Of course I do!
0:27:55 > 0:27:58But what this comes down to is protecting our livelihoods.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Yours and mine. The ones that support our families.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04I understand you're trying to do the right thing.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07But I can't hold your hand on this. You're on your own.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32Mum?
0:28:42 > 0:28:45You know, I was really looking forward to seeing both of you.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47Aye?
0:28:47 > 0:28:49Cos the last time you were here, you couldn't be bothered
0:28:49 > 0:28:51seeing us at all.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57You think I like having to hide things?
0:28:57 > 0:29:01- Because I'm not going to build up her hopes just for you to wreck them again.- I know...
0:29:02 > 0:29:05Me leaving the way I did, it wasn't ideal...
0:29:05 > 0:29:08Ideal? Mum, we were worried sick.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13No goodbye, no explanation...
0:29:13 > 0:29:17I mean, where even were you? Dad said Dubai, but...
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Why there? Why thousands of miles away?
0:29:23 > 0:29:25Do you have any idea what you've put us through?
0:29:25 > 0:29:28These past six months, not knowing why -
0:29:28 > 0:29:29if it was something we did.
0:29:29 > 0:29:34It wasn't. I just... it was something I needed to do.
0:29:34 > 0:29:35For myself.
0:29:35 > 0:29:39And what, we didn't factor into that at all?
0:29:44 > 0:29:45Kirsty's still just a kid.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49And one day her mother packs up and walks out on her?
0:29:49 > 0:29:51I don't see how much worse it can get.
0:29:54 > 0:29:55So why are you back?
0:29:55 > 0:29:57I mean, you just phone up out the blue...
0:29:57 > 0:30:00I told you. I wanted to see you both.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03See your faces.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07I miss you.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16I had a call from the police the other week.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20Something about your dad, some kind of bother?
0:30:23 > 0:30:26I had to give him an alibi but, well...
0:30:26 > 0:30:30if Alan's in some sort of trouble, if it's going to affect you two...
0:30:30 > 0:30:34So, what? Is this you riding in to the rescue? And then what?
0:30:34 > 0:30:35You going to stick about?
0:30:37 > 0:30:38Of course not.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42Look, you don't need to worry about us,
0:30:42 > 0:30:45Dad's doing great, actually, considering.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47At least he's there.
0:30:47 > 0:30:48Maybe this was a mistake.
0:30:48 > 0:30:53Oh, aye, so you're just going to walk away again? Unbelievable.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57We can manage just fine without you.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59Angus!
0:31:11 > 0:31:12All right, mate?
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Drinking yourself?
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Not any more.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17How's it going?
0:31:17 > 0:31:19Been better.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22This Lowtherhill thing's really scunnered me, man.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24Mate, that whole development's cursed.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26You and my dad are well out of it.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30But I've got just the thing to keep your mind off it, my friend.
0:31:30 > 0:31:34Zinnie? Just how sharp are your bartending skills tonight?
0:31:34 > 0:31:38Cos me and my good friend here were thinking...shooters?
0:31:38 > 0:31:42- Shooters? - I don't know, mate.- Oh, come on.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44What's your thoughts on a slippery nipple?
0:31:44 > 0:31:45It's Sambuca and Irish cream.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47I think that sounds disgusting.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50- A B-52?- A what?
0:31:50 > 0:31:52So I suppose a screaming orgasm's out of the question, then?
0:31:52 > 0:31:53PHONE CHIMES
0:31:53 > 0:31:57Look, I'm not even going to dignify that with a response.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Er, sorry, naw. Count me out.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06- Something's just come up. - But you just got here.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09I was thinking we could maybe make a night of it, eh? Head into town?
0:32:09 > 0:32:11Mate, you look like you're on a mission.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14But I'm not really feeling that flush the now.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16Maybe next time, eh? Catch you later.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26You all right?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Erm...
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Aye. Fine.
0:32:30 > 0:32:31What was that all about?
0:32:32 > 0:32:36I dunno. Maybe he's just worried about the development.
0:32:36 > 0:32:39It doesn't sound like his money's that safe.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Look, whatever it is...
0:32:44 > 0:32:47THIS probably isn't the answer.
0:32:47 > 0:32:48No.
0:32:50 > 0:32:51But it'll do for now.
0:32:53 > 0:32:54Tequila.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01I will have one tequila, please.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03So if you can just put those two first,
0:33:03 > 0:33:05and I'll speak to Frank afterwards.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08And if we just move Andrews to two o'clock...
0:33:11 > 0:33:12Thanks, Agnes.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Now, if you could just make sure reception are informed?
0:33:15 > 0:33:16Hi, Agnes.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19- You wanted to see me? - Sit down, Frank.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25There's no easy way to say this...
0:33:25 > 0:33:28but certain allegations have been brought to my attention,
0:33:28 > 0:33:30concerning your conduct over Lowtherhill.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35I don't understand. What kind of allegations?
0:33:35 > 0:33:36I can't give you the full details yet.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39But I can tell you it's serious.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Pertaining to corruption.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Should I be worried?
0:33:46 > 0:33:48I'm giving you the opportunity to tell me now.
0:33:48 > 0:33:49Because if I find out later...
0:33:49 > 0:33:51Worried? No...
0:33:51 > 0:33:54So, who's been telling you all this?
0:33:54 > 0:33:55You know I can't tell you that.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58It's Eileen, isn't it?
0:33:58 > 0:34:02Look, I don't know what that woman's problem is with me.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05Whether she feels like she's been passed over, or what,
0:34:05 > 0:34:07but...come on.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09You're not going to take this seriously, are you? I mean...
0:34:09 > 0:34:11It's not just her.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14I'm informed the police are investigating this too.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16A document that was passed to them...
0:34:17 > 0:34:21Look, Frank, we've known each other a long time.
0:34:21 > 0:34:25So let me be absolutely clear about this.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28Cover-ups, falsehoods, dodgy dealings -
0:34:28 > 0:34:30I've worked hard in my seven years here
0:34:30 > 0:34:33to weed out exactly this kind of behaviour.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36And if we are looking at a potential scandal?
0:34:37 > 0:34:40Well, you know where I stand.
0:35:39 > 0:35:40Detective Donald was the name.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44She said she talked to him direct, but I've had no follow-up.
0:35:46 > 0:35:47OK.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50Well, thank you, Chief Constable.
0:35:50 > 0:35:54Let's just try to keep each other in the loop on this one.
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Great.
0:35:56 > 0:35:57Speak soon.
0:36:02 > 0:36:03Frank?
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Sorry for the interruption. Agnes here's been giving me a hand.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10I seem to have misplaced my phone when I was in here before.
0:36:10 > 0:36:11This was the last place I had it.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15Well. One quick way to solve this mystery.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21MOBILE RINGS
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Ah. Here it is.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28See if I didn't have my head screwed on...
0:36:37 > 0:36:39What are you doing here?
0:36:39 > 0:36:41Just checking how business is going.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44You must be saving a fortune on those wee yellow jackets
0:36:44 > 0:36:46now you're not getting your hands dirty any more.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49What do you want, Frank?
0:36:54 > 0:36:56You were always were the weak one, Alan.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59Never had the stomach to see anything through to the end.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02If you actually think this is going to achieve anything...
0:37:02 > 0:37:05- I don't know what you're talking about.- Don't give me it.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Just back from the Council.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Backing up Eileen and her little campaign against me.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12All I'm telling them is the truth.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15The truth? And where do you think that's going to get you?
0:37:15 > 0:37:18Do you think anybody really cares what the truth is?
0:37:18 > 0:37:19They'll care once they find out
0:37:19 > 0:37:21what kind of man they've got working for them.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24See, that's your problem.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29You're just too dumb to see all the angles.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33Folk like you, they serve a purpose.
0:37:33 > 0:37:34Like a cheap piece of kit you pick up,
0:37:34 > 0:37:36chuck away again when you're done.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38But me?
0:37:38 > 0:37:40People have invested too much in me to simply let this go.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42No matter what you say.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46Aye? Well, we'll see about that, won't we?
0:37:50 > 0:37:52You're finished.
0:37:52 > 0:37:57I told you once before - I can see to it you'll never work again.
0:37:57 > 0:37:59I'm not talking about this city.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01I've got connections across the whole country...
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Oh, give it a rest, will you?
0:38:03 > 0:38:04See, I've heard it all before.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08First you came in here with promises, then it's threats...
0:38:09 > 0:38:13See when your "connections" find out who you really are,
0:38:13 > 0:38:14and that your job's on the line?
0:38:14 > 0:38:18We'll see how fast the rats desert you.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Show face at the Council... you're done.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32For good.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36And I'm not just talking about your business.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50We need to talk.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53I'm delighted you've decided to honour me with your presence.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56I'm sorry I never came before. But we've got bigger problems.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58It's Eileen. She's got Alan Lindsay
0:38:58 > 0:39:01to say that he's going to testify to the Council over Lowtherhill.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Lowtherhill...
0:39:03 > 0:39:04that name sounds familiar.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Oh, wait a minute. Isn't that the wee housing project that we had,
0:39:07 > 0:39:10that you forgot to tell me was down the Suwannee?
0:39:10 > 0:39:11I was going to tell you.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13I just wanted to get the full picture first.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15Come on, then. Enlighten me.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Look, your money's safe.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20There's a phase two in the works, a much larger thing.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22Your investment will be carried forward into that.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25With a much higher return, of course.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Come on, give me your "phase two".
0:39:27 > 0:39:30We're talking retail units, business parks,
0:39:30 > 0:39:32luxury homes at top market prices.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35Lowtherhill, that's just the start,
0:39:35 > 0:39:38we're talking a much bigger piece of the cake.
0:39:38 > 0:39:39Sounds more like pie in the sky to me.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42How do I know the same thing's not going to happen again?
0:39:42 > 0:39:43We can discuss that later.
0:39:43 > 0:39:45Do you not think we've got more pressing concerns?
0:39:45 > 0:39:48Eileen?
0:39:48 > 0:39:50- What about her? - That threat, Lenny.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Whatever you have on her, we need to use it now! Ramp it up.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Might be a problem there.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00See that threat, that's been buried.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05I believe you were one of the mourners at the funeral.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09Raymond! That's who she was protecting.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11- Now Raymond's... - Dead? Give the man a cigar.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14And I'm wondering just how much you know about that.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19If Eileen gets her way at the Council...
0:40:19 > 0:40:21Your coat is on a shoogly peg, Frank.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Even more so if the polis decide to come knocking.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26But, what we've just talked about - phase two?
0:40:26 > 0:40:27Phase two...
0:40:29 > 0:40:33Let me tell you something, a drowning man, he's going
0:40:33 > 0:40:36to promise you anything, if he thinks you'll throw him a line.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39But make no mistake,
0:40:39 > 0:40:43I will get back what's owed to me, one way or another.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Anything else? That's up to you now.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Well, I must say, this is a bit of a surprise.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35You could've let me know you were coming.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37I know. But it couldn't be helped.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40Rachel, I...
0:41:40 > 0:41:43Please. Let's just keep this professional.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48I know there's probably things we both need to say but...
0:41:48 > 0:41:51this isn't a personal visit.
0:41:51 > 0:41:52Walters sent me.
0:41:52 > 0:41:57She received a call from a Senior Councillor earlier, a Ronald Greer?
0:41:57 > 0:42:01She wanted me to come down here and find out what's going on.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03In what capacity?
0:42:05 > 0:42:07For the time being, I'm acting DCI.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11You've been promoted?
0:42:11 > 0:42:13I suppose congratulations are in order.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Feel free to have a seat. It's not my office any more.
0:42:18 > 0:42:19Don't.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28So. What's the story?
0:42:28 > 0:42:32The Council are under the impression we're looking into some
0:42:32 > 0:42:33sort of cover-up?
0:42:34 > 0:42:36And?
0:42:36 > 0:42:40It's just that they saw your name attached to it, and...
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Council fraud?
0:42:41 > 0:42:44Not exactly within your remit, is it?
0:42:44 > 0:42:46I see what you're getting at.
0:42:46 > 0:42:50It was actually Eileen Donachie that came to us with this.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54She brought me a document, which I passed along immediately.
0:42:58 > 0:43:02Look, if Walters has sent you here just to shut me down...
0:43:02 > 0:43:03She just thought that,
0:43:03 > 0:43:06given this could be sensitive, we ought to be across it.
0:43:08 > 0:43:12Well, you two seem to have built up quite the working relationship.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14You do all her bidding now, do you?
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Sorry, I didn't mean that.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20I'm going to be staying for the next few days.
0:43:20 > 0:43:24Maybe it's better if you write up a report to fill me in?
0:43:25 > 0:43:27Have it on my desk first thing.
0:43:30 > 0:43:31Yes, Ma'am.
0:43:34 > 0:43:36It's good to see you again.
0:43:36 > 0:43:38Really.
0:43:50 > 0:43:51Look at the state of you.
0:43:54 > 0:43:55Everything OK?
0:43:56 > 0:43:59Nothing a piece and bacon willnae fix.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Yeah, well. Just try not to set the house on fire.
0:44:03 > 0:44:05Kirsty?
0:44:06 > 0:44:08I love you.
0:44:08 > 0:44:10I know.
0:44:26 > 0:44:29I hope you're not planning on sleeping in there again tonight.
0:44:38 > 0:44:40You want one?
0:45:14 > 0:45:16Right.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53DOORBELL RINGS
0:46:04 > 0:46:06You ready?
0:46:06 > 0:46:08I was going to follow you up there.
0:46:08 > 0:46:11You did say I wasn't due until 11, right?
0:46:11 > 0:46:13Yeah. He wants to speak to me first.
0:46:14 > 0:46:17OK, well... I'll see you there, then?
0:46:18 > 0:46:20Thanks again for doing this.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58And this ground report you came into possession of,
0:46:58 > 0:47:00you showed that to Mr Lindsay?
0:47:00 > 0:47:03Yes. Just before I gave it to the police.
0:47:05 > 0:47:07And it was at this point that he told you
0:47:07 > 0:47:11that Councillor Paton knew of its existence?
0:47:12 > 0:47:15No. That was later. When I spoke to him again.
0:47:21 > 0:47:23So he denied all knowledge of it at first?
0:47:32 > 0:47:36Excuse me, I'm looking for Councillor Greer's office.
0:47:36 > 0:47:38- Upstairs on the second level.- Thanks.
0:47:39 > 0:47:41Alan!
0:48:34 > 0:48:36Well?
0:48:36 > 0:48:38If what I've been hearing is true,
0:48:38 > 0:48:40you've got some serious questions to answer.
0:48:40 > 0:48:42This is a farce.
0:48:42 > 0:48:45Eileen Donachie finds one person to come in here and tell lies...
0:48:45 > 0:48:47Oh, come on.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49It's Alan Lindsay, isn't it?
0:48:49 > 0:48:52He's the one that's trying to stick the knife in, isn't it?
0:48:52 > 0:48:55Why are you listening to him over me?
0:48:55 > 0:48:56What?
0:48:56 > 0:48:58How did you know it was Lindsay?
0:48:58 > 0:49:00So, what does it matter?
0:49:00 > 0:49:03And all this business about chromium deposits...
0:49:03 > 0:49:06Alan Lindsay was the man who signed off on that report.
0:49:06 > 0:49:08He's hardly a credible witness!
0:49:08 > 0:49:13Be that as it may, his testimony raises serious questions.
0:49:14 > 0:49:17The ground surveyor, Eric Turnbull.
0:49:17 > 0:49:21Lindsay says you pressured him into allowing this man to commit fraud!
0:49:26 > 0:49:30A formal inquiry will have to be launched. And in the meantime...
0:49:32 > 0:49:34..consider yourself suspended.
0:49:37 > 0:49:39And what about the rest?
0:49:42 > 0:49:45- What "rest"? - If Alan Lindsay's saying
0:49:45 > 0:49:49that Turnbull committed fraudulent acts...
0:49:49 > 0:49:52to which other projects does this apply?
0:49:52 > 0:49:55Those are going to have to be investigated too.
0:49:55 > 0:49:57What are you talking about?
0:49:59 > 0:50:02How long have we worked together in Development, Ronnie?
0:50:04 > 0:50:06How many projects in that time?
0:50:06 > 0:50:10Eric Turnbull has worked on every single one.
0:50:11 > 0:50:13Are you saying he's done this before?
0:50:13 > 0:50:17Because if we've got residents, living on contaminated land...
0:50:17 > 0:50:18I'm not saying anything.
0:50:18 > 0:50:20It's like you said yourself...
0:50:20 > 0:50:24There are "serious questions" that we need answered.
0:50:29 > 0:50:32Seven years you told me yesterday.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34Seven years to clean up your department.
0:50:36 > 0:50:39That's quite a legacy to leave behind.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42All those projects you got green-lit.
0:50:42 > 0:50:45And it all just gets washed away.
0:50:48 > 0:50:49You can't do this.
0:50:49 > 0:50:52I'm just trying to protect you, Ronnie.
0:50:52 > 0:50:54I'm trying to cushion you from the reality of what your time
0:50:54 > 0:50:57in office has actually been about.
0:51:23 > 0:51:25- How did it go?- Good, I think.
0:51:26 > 0:51:30- I can't thank you enough. - It's the least I could do.
0:51:30 > 0:51:35- It was my pleasure, believe me. I'd better go.- OK, bye.- Bye.
0:51:50 > 0:51:51I don't understand.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54Surely what Alan said at least warrants further investigation!
0:51:54 > 0:51:57- Please, try to calm down. - Calm down?
0:51:57 > 0:52:00He's got to you, hasn't he? What's he said?
0:52:00 > 0:52:03Eileen, now you're just being paranoid.
0:52:03 > 0:52:05Am I? Maybe it's just the way things work round here.
0:52:05 > 0:52:07The Old Boys' network, everybody sticking together!
0:52:07 > 0:52:11Look, the loss of Lowtherhill... It hasn't been easy for anybody.
0:52:11 > 0:52:14But there comes a time when you have to move on.
0:52:14 > 0:52:16Now, I know things might still be raw at home.
0:52:16 > 0:52:18So if you want a couple more weeks?
0:52:18 > 0:52:22A couple more weeks? What for?
0:52:24 > 0:52:26You know, you could give me a couple more years
0:52:26 > 0:52:29and it wouldn't make a difference.
0:52:30 > 0:52:31I've already made up my mind.
0:52:33 > 0:52:35I'm done.
0:52:35 > 0:52:36I quit.
0:52:38 > 0:52:40I need to be with my family.
0:52:40 > 0:52:41Eileen!
0:53:17 > 0:53:18Eileen?
0:53:18 > 0:53:20I thought I might find you here.
0:53:24 > 0:53:25All alone?
0:53:29 > 0:53:32Do you have any idea what you put at risk today?
0:53:32 > 0:53:35The money at stake, the people that back me?
0:53:35 > 0:53:38Do you really think they're going to let you get in the way?
0:53:42 > 0:53:45You were never going to win this, Eileen.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47People like you and Raymond...
0:53:47 > 0:53:49You were never cut out to play with the big boys.
0:53:56 > 0:53:58Eileen!
0:53:58 > 0:53:59Sorry, I didn't realise.
0:54:01 > 0:54:04We were just passing and we saw there was someone was in.
0:54:04 > 0:54:09Stuart's been asking for you all day, dear, and...
0:54:09 > 0:54:13we were wondering if Mummy's ready to come home yet?
0:54:13 > 0:54:16Yes, I am. Frank was just leaving.
0:54:18 > 0:54:22- You having a wee clear-out, dear? - Yeah, kind of.
0:54:34 > 0:54:36I'm looking for Detective Inspector Donald.
0:54:36 > 0:54:39I'd like to report a missing person.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41- OK, just have a seat.- OK, thank you.
0:54:56 > 0:54:59PHONE RINGS CID, Donald?
0:54:59 > 0:55:01Betty Turnbull?
0:55:01 > 0:55:04I'll be right there. Thank you.
0:55:11 > 0:55:15SHOUTS AND LAUGHTER
0:55:51 > 0:55:54I need to be running this murder investigation.
0:55:54 > 0:55:55What?!
0:55:55 > 0:55:57Eric Stephen Turnbull....
0:55:57 > 0:56:02He said that Eric was just staying away, until things blew over.
0:56:02 > 0:56:04"He"? Who's he?
0:56:04 > 0:56:05Frank Paton.
0:56:05 > 0:56:07You talked to him quite recently,
0:56:07 > 0:56:09certainly within the last three weeks?
0:56:09 > 0:56:12I'm at a loss as to how you could manage this,
0:56:12 > 0:56:14given that he was found in a shallow grave yesterday.
0:56:14 > 0:56:18- If we stick together... - You can go to hell, McAllister!
0:56:18 > 0:56:20Because I wish to God I'd never met you.
0:56:20 > 0:56:23Look, I promised I'd find anything that was there,
0:56:23 > 0:56:26and I will, which is why I need the keys to Raymond's house.
0:56:28 > 0:56:31If you'd anything to do with that man's death...
0:56:31 > 0:56:33you won't be able to blackmail your way out of it this time.
