0:00:02 > 0:00:05Even if you were just colleagues, there was love, perhaps.

0:00:05 > 0:00:09What we will do for love. Die for it, even.

0:00:09 > 0:00:12We do know that she was investigating something

0:00:12 > 0:00:15and Haider Jamal Abdi may have been helping her.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17I know him. The man on your appeal.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20They come in here with their fake IDs and their licences,

0:00:20 > 0:00:22and I send them away just as quick.

0:00:22 > 0:00:26Tom Read, I arrest you for perverting the course of justice.

0:00:26 > 0:00:27CHRISSIE!

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Was there anything, anything different about her?

0:00:30 > 0:00:33You worked with her that day. You went for dinner, for Christ's sake.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35You must have talked about something.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37We worked. We had lunch.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39We worked some more. We went for Chinese.

0:00:41 > 0:00:42We talked about nothing.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44The last time I saw Stevie,

0:00:44 > 0:00:47she said that she... she loved someone.

0:00:47 > 0:00:49I thought that someone was...

0:00:51 > 0:00:55She gave me £10,000 that night, to look after her younger brother.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57I think... I think she knew something was coming.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59She asked me if something happened to her,

0:00:59 > 0:01:01to look after Frankie.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08This programme contains some strong language

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Just to go back over again...

0:01:29 > 0:01:31..you come out of the Chinese restaurant...

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Yeah.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38After a brief exchange, she crosses the road.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Did you see who shot her?

0:01:41 > 0:01:44No, my view was obscured by the van.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48But you saw the car pull away?

0:01:49 > 0:01:50Yes.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56- She crosses the road...- Do you recall the last thing she said to you?

0:02:00 > 0:02:01HE SIGHS

0:02:03 > 0:02:05River.

0:02:07 > 0:02:08"Screw you, Mr Magoo."

0:02:10 > 0:02:13That's the last thing she said to you?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15HE SNIFFLES

0:02:15 > 0:02:18I've got blood all over my shirt.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47What the hell was she up to?

0:02:52 > 0:02:54She gave you that money, didn't she?

0:02:54 > 0:02:58That's what she was giving you, outside the restaurant, the 10K?

0:02:58 > 0:03:00She knew something was coming.

0:03:11 > 0:03:15You are caught in what is known as a paradox, my friend.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18The closer you get to the truth, the further away you'll get from me.

0:03:18 > 0:03:19From who I was.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25And then you'll see who I really am.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30Solve this, Magoo, and you know what happens.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Oh, Inspector.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50For the guilty, there is nothing that gives more masochistic pleasure

0:03:50 > 0:03:53than to retrace one's steps.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55To replay the details of one's most horrific crimes.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58GUNSHOT

0:04:00 > 0:04:02GUNSHOT

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Alas, you could not heave your heart into your mouth

0:04:13 > 0:04:16and tell her how you felt that night.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20If only you had taken her in your arms.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23If only.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24If only.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27If only.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Then she may still be alive

0:04:29 > 0:04:32and somewhere inside of you would not have died.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35But do not be afraid, Inspector.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36She may be gone,

0:04:36 > 0:04:39but I will still be there, for ever...

0:04:40 > 0:04:42..by your side!

0:04:48 > 0:04:51River, I went through the three key firms

0:04:51 > 0:04:54that Stevie was investigating in the lead-up to her murder.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56- Chrissie not in yet?- No.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59Office Work Solutions - an employment agency in Harrow.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01They headhunt and supply a variety of staff.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Cleaning contracts, mainly.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05The second - TPA Waste Management.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07They provide recycling contracts.

0:05:07 > 0:05:11And the third - E&F Car Services, of which Bennigan Cars

0:05:11 > 0:05:14is one of five subsidiary companies, all providing taxis,

0:05:14 > 0:05:19luxury chauffeurs, a collective payroll of 1,900 employees.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Drivers, mainly.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Bennigan Cars has got 76,

0:05:23 > 0:05:25maybe 80 applicants through in the last 18 months.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29All applying for visas, rights to stay in the country.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35Nearly all had their cases approved by one judge, Tom Read,

0:05:35 > 0:05:37and then went on to future employment

0:05:37 > 0:05:38in one of those companies.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42- And what links all those companies is...- E6 Holdings.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51I'm trying to get a list

0:05:51 > 0:05:53of all the shareholders, but...

0:06:02 > 0:06:04Michael Bennigan...was on the board.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12She was researching this as far back as 2003.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Certainly, she's been pulling up information on Michael Bennigan,

0:06:17 > 0:06:19periodically, over the years.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27It's not enough to arrest him.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30I've applied for a warrant to get in there and search.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35These companies come under rigorous legislation.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37- They can't just employ illegal... - Illegal immigrants?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39They're not illegal.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42It's a quick fix to get them into work.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44He must get something in return.

0:06:45 > 0:06:49I think she sent Haider in... to see how the system worked.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Ira, you lead the search.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54I should do that. I know Michael.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56You need to deal with Tom.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Find me the links to Stevie's murder.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Where's Chrissie?

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Compassionate leave.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Are you going to let her get away with that?

0:07:14 > 0:07:15She needs to be here.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:07:30 > 0:07:33I don't know what tea I drink any more.

0:07:33 > 0:07:34Tea is tea.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39How did you find me?

0:07:39 > 0:07:40Nina opened the door.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44School sent her home.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48I haven't told them where Tom is.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52He's always working, anyway.

0:07:52 > 0:07:53And they haven't even asked.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58You need to come in.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02- You need to sit in and listen to Tom's interview.- No. No.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05If I could get Stevie in a room and find out what she's done,

0:08:05 > 0:08:08what she did, if I could do that, I would.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11I can't, River.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13My husband...is sitting in a cell

0:08:13 > 0:08:16four floors below my office.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19I can't face anyone. I...

0:08:19 > 0:08:20Go away.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Where's your balls? - When did I ever need balls?!

0:08:25 > 0:08:28When did balls ever make you a better detective?

0:08:28 > 0:08:31In 33 years in the force, that's what blokes say.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33"Where's your balls?" I got where I got.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35I did it, and I didn't need a pair of sodding nuts.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Now piss off and let me do my shopping.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Is this really where you want to be?

0:08:41 > 0:08:44This is where I should have been.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46This is where I should have been for 33 years.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48But, instead, I've worked and sweated,

0:08:48 > 0:08:50and I've drunk pints with pissed-up commissioners,

0:08:50 > 0:08:53and I've taken shit... Oh, God, so much shit!

0:08:53 > 0:08:56But the one thing I could say, through all the losses,

0:08:56 > 0:08:59through all the missed sports days, and the holidays

0:08:59 > 0:09:01and the late nights when my kids needed me

0:09:01 > 0:09:03and I was sweating to close a case,

0:09:03 > 0:09:06the one thing I could say was that it was worth it.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08And now it's not because he's guilty!

0:09:09 > 0:09:11He's guilty,

0:09:11 > 0:09:14River, and therefore I will be tarred with the same brush.

0:09:14 > 0:09:1833 years, River, and this is my fucking carriage clock?!

0:09:21 > 0:09:22Sorry.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27I hate you.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32I hate you for finding him out.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37My fault. Never employ anyone good at their job.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48I hate you.

0:09:50 > 0:09:51I hate you, I hate you.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59We're conducting a search. Can you please stand up,

0:09:59 > 0:10:02away from your desks, please. Thank you.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04HUBBUB OF VOICES

0:10:42 > 0:10:44- Chrissie...- I'm humouring River.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Did you, on November 14th this year,

0:10:53 > 0:10:56visit a bank of lockers off Dalston Lane?

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Also on the 4th November,

0:10:58 > 0:11:01the 23rd October, the 7th October...

0:11:02 > 0:11:04..and on three or four other occasions

0:11:04 > 0:11:06from September to mid August?

0:11:06 > 0:11:09- I haven't been briefed with this... - Is she here?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Is Chrissie here?

0:11:12 > 0:11:14I'll repeat my question.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Did you, on November 14th of this year,

0:11:16 > 0:11:19visit a bank of lockers off Dalston Lane?

0:11:23 > 0:11:25- Yes.- Why did you go there?

0:11:25 > 0:11:27- To pick up payments.- How many?

0:11:27 > 0:11:30I don't know. Seven, eight. I lost count.

0:11:30 > 0:11:34- What were those payments for? - I wish to confer with my client. - HE MUTTERS

0:11:34 > 0:11:37The person who paid you may be involved in Stevie's death.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43I need to talk to Chrissie.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47I need to talk to her first.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49She's listening.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07I received a text message.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10From who? Was it Michael Bennigan?

0:12:10 > 0:12:12I don't know.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14The request was simple.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19There were certain immigration cases that would come before me.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23I was to quickly waive these cases through.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27There were threats...

0:12:27 > 0:12:29to reveal certain information.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30I refused to respond.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Then photographs were sent...

0:12:35 > 0:12:37of me and others.

0:12:37 > 0:12:38Others?

0:12:38 > 0:12:43Taken - clearly illicitly - taken at work.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45Compromising photographs.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Nothing obscene but, to the trained eye, to those that know me,

0:12:47 > 0:12:49they would confirm...

0:12:49 > 0:12:51that I was having affairs.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Affairs? Plural?

0:12:56 > 0:12:57Yes.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04I don't see how this connects to Stevie's death.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Four phone calls, Tom, the last made on the morning she died.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Mm, that doesn't mean... - The day she was murdered.

0:13:17 > 0:13:20She told me that I was to tell Chrissie.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24If not, she would talk to her herself...that day.

0:13:26 > 0:13:31Chrissie was already home when I got back.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34She'd even cooked dinner. She never cooks dinner.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36And, miraculously, by nine, all the children had fled,

0:13:36 > 0:13:39gone to bed, homework, friends.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Even the dog, even the dog...

0:13:43 > 0:13:44was somewhere else.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50But I WAS going to tell her.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52I was going to tell her...

0:13:52 > 0:13:54everything...that night.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57And then...the phone rings

0:13:57 > 0:14:00and it's you, saying that Stevie's dead.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10It's the relief, isn't it?

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Because now I won't have to tell Chrissie.

0:14:19 > 0:14:20I can comfort her...

0:14:22 > 0:14:26..and we can go to bed and cling to one another and tell one another,

0:14:26 > 0:14:27"Thank God we're OK."

0:14:30 > 0:14:31"I love you, too."

0:14:32 > 0:14:34Only we don't.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38We didn't.

0:14:42 > 0:14:43And I still don't know...

0:14:44 > 0:14:47..if Stevie said anything to Chrissie at all.

0:14:53 > 0:14:54Charge him!

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Yeah.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03Oh, God.

0:15:03 > 0:15:05Mike's leaving drinks.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08Promotion. Criminal Justice Unit. Haverford West.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12You knew.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17That's what she wanted to talk to you about.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19She was talking in riddles. She was upset.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26She called me that day and I said...

0:15:26 > 0:15:27"We'll talk in the morning,"

0:15:27 > 0:15:30and I didn't think anything of it. I didn't, River.

0:15:33 > 0:15:34And then she was dead.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59- There you go.- Thanks.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04Yeah, just...just lay it down over there.

0:16:04 > 0:16:05Hard drives and files.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09Michael Bennigan's lawyer will contact you directly.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11I went through Bennigan's stuff...

0:16:11 > 0:16:13and I found some corrupted data.

0:16:15 > 0:16:16Look at this.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Uh, it looks like...

0:16:20 > 0:16:22someone's tried to delete it.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30I'll get tech, to see if they can clean it up.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38The secrets of the heart are buried deep.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43Only time will reveal how deeply they are sown.

0:18:06 > 0:18:07Open it.

0:18:12 > 0:18:13- BRIDIE:- 'Put him down, Stevie.'

0:18:19 > 0:18:20'Put your boy down!'

0:18:25 > 0:18:26KEYBOARD CLICKS

0:18:26 > 0:18:28'Put your boy down!'

0:18:34 > 0:18:37You see, no-one is what they seem, Inspector.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40She didn't want you to know who she really was.

0:18:46 > 0:18:47What to do?

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Is the diet going well, then?

0:19:11 > 0:19:13HE CHUCKLES

0:19:13 > 0:19:15I don't get weighed until tomorrow.

0:19:15 > 0:19:16You should exercise.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Do you?

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Never.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24I went to Zumba once.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27I walked in and then I walked back out again.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30You needed leggings. I don't have leggings.

0:19:30 > 0:19:31I had my jeans on.

0:19:34 > 0:19:35We raided the offices today.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39- Frankie...- I don't know anything.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42That was the deal.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Stevie said...

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Stevie said, if I work for Michael, I was to be kept out of it all.

0:20:11 > 0:20:12I mean...

0:20:12 > 0:20:14You've already given me,

0:20:14 > 0:20:16like, 200 quid.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18She gave me ten grand for you.

0:20:18 > 0:20:19Take it.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23You could go somewhere with it.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26- I don't have a passport. - Well, get one.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29Travel. Go abroad.

0:20:34 > 0:20:37No. You're all right.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- I don't want it.- Why did she want me to look after you?

0:20:39 > 0:20:41I don't know what she wanted me to do.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45How am I meant to help you?

0:20:47 > 0:20:49Tell me, Frankie.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55I can't sleep in the flat no more.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58I can't sleep at home. I can't sleep...

0:21:00 > 0:21:01..anywhere.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05I walk around all night, until it's light,

0:21:05 > 0:21:08and then I go to work... and I go home.

0:21:10 > 0:21:11And, uh...

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Yeah, I'm, uh... I'm drowning.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27Come on. Come on, Frankie.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44- Last one in is...- Chicken!

0:23:01 > 0:23:03- Yeah. Looks like it. - FRANKIE CHUCKLES

0:23:08 > 0:23:10I knew you'd come home.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15The colour's drained out of you.

0:23:20 > 0:23:24- Thank you.- I heard you searched Michael's place?

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Yeah.

0:23:26 > 0:23:27What did you do that for?

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Just a part of the ongoing investigation.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Oh.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Right. Do yous want some toast?

0:23:36 > 0:23:37No.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43- How old were you there? - Oh, about...

0:23:43 > 0:23:44about a month.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46You were born in Cork?

0:23:46 > 0:23:49Me waters broke when we were staying at me sister's.

0:23:54 > 0:23:55And that's you as well?

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Our late surprise.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05Frankie. Upstairs and get a dry shirt on.

0:24:08 > 0:24:09Do it.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24He's got some idea about her flat.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26Told him we need to sell it.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29You can do something with money.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32Not bricks and mortar... and a pasta machine.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Oh, a pasta machine?

0:24:35 > 0:24:38You ever known our Stevie make a bowl of food in her life?

0:24:38 > 0:24:40She made good scrambled eggs.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42And she could laugh till she pissed herself.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47She was loyal, passionate and true.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51And she loved.

0:24:51 > 0:24:55But the one person she loved with everything was that boy.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Why did she love that boy so much, Bridie?

0:24:57 > 0:24:59PHONE RINGS

0:25:02 > 0:25:04Hello?

0:25:07 > 0:25:08Yeah. Yep, I've heard.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13- QUIETLY:- I know.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16No. Not now, it's not a good time.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Yeah.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21OK.

0:25:21 > 0:25:22Yes.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28'I don't know why you've brought me here, John.

0:25:28 > 0:25:29'Why? Hm?'

0:25:34 > 0:25:36RECORDING PLAYS

0:25:41 > 0:25:42'Put him down, Stevie.

0:25:46 > 0:25:47'Put your boy down!

0:25:52 > 0:25:53'Frankie.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56'Come on! Come here!'

0:25:56 > 0:25:59How do you turn that thing off?

0:25:59 > 0:26:01RECORDING CONTINUES TO PLAY

0:26:03 > 0:26:04Turn it off.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09- Turn it off!- SIT DOWN!

0:26:19 > 0:26:21What else are you prepared to lie about?

0:26:21 > 0:26:23E6 Holdings.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27Do you know the company?

0:26:27 > 0:26:28No comment.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34He takes care of you, Michael. Takes care of you well.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37He's been a good friend.

0:26:39 > 0:26:42The last thing Stevie asked me to do,

0:26:42 > 0:26:45before she died, was to take care of Frankie.

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Her son.

0:26:49 > 0:26:50I want a lawyer.

0:26:52 > 0:26:53You can have one.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58This is just the warm-up chat.

0:27:05 > 0:27:06Who was the father?

0:27:09 > 0:27:10I didn't ask.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14Probably a poke for a pound round the back of Greens.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17She opened her legs for everyone.

0:27:17 > 0:27:18Cheap date.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23She wanted to flush him away.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Wanted to flush that boy away.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31I took him in.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33I made him my own.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35Kept him on the straight.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Until you let him work for Michael.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40Oh, he's a big boy.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Is that why she went in to investigate?

0:27:42 > 0:27:43To protect Frankie?

0:27:45 > 0:27:47No comment.

0:27:48 > 0:27:52The night Stevie was murdered, the car she was shot from...

0:27:54 > 0:27:56..was left at a scrapyard. It's a blue Mondeo.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01Do you recognise this car?

0:28:05 > 0:28:07- No?- No. No.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09But you know who dumped it.

0:28:11 > 0:28:12You dumped it, Bridie.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18A figure wearing that coat...

0:28:18 > 0:28:20was seen ditching it at a scrapyard,

0:28:20 > 0:28:2290 minutes after she was shot.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25Five foot seven, five foot eight.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27About your height, Bridie.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34Oh, is it March?

0:28:34 > 0:28:38When the mad hares breed? Because you're mad!

0:28:38 > 0:28:40SHE CHUCKLES

0:28:41 > 0:28:45Madness can bring its own kind of clarity, Bridie.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48Did you shoot your own daughter?

0:28:56 > 0:28:57Did Michael kill her?

0:28:59 > 0:29:00Did Michael kill Stevie?

0:29:03 > 0:29:04No comment.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Is that the cleaned-up files?

0:29:23 > 0:29:24Yeah.

0:29:36 > 0:29:37Found something?

0:29:39 > 0:29:40Wait...

0:30:08 > 0:30:10CAR GATHERS SPEED

0:30:15 > 0:30:17HE REVS ENGINE

0:30:17 > 0:30:18Easy, Tonto.

0:30:37 > 0:30:38The one thing,

0:30:38 > 0:30:41the one thing you asked was that they keep Frankie out of it.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- But they didn't, did they? - River. Please.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47HE RINGS DOORBELL I'm doing this for Frankie.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Some find them a little macabre...

0:30:58 > 0:31:00but I like them.

0:31:00 > 0:31:04You know, slavery existed even before the Roman Occupation,

0:31:04 > 0:31:07although the true pioneers of the English slave trade

0:31:07 > 0:31:10didn't really kick in until the mid-16th century.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14When Eric and I first arrived in England, it was,

0:31:14 > 0:31:18"No Irish, no coloureds," when you tried to rent a room.

0:31:18 > 0:31:21You had to fight to get anywhere in this country.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25So, I like to think that, uh...

0:31:28 > 0:31:32..I'm doing my bit for the next generation coming in.

0:31:32 > 0:31:33I'll say the same in court.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38I was looking at some CCTV from that night.

0:31:38 > 0:31:42You were right - we did have that car out the back.

0:31:42 > 0:31:44Everything is digital now, huh?

0:31:49 > 0:31:51You paid to have Haider killed.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Did you do the same with Stevie?

0:31:55 > 0:31:57You see, that's my point.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00You can never underestimate the power of family.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03Stevie never really understood that.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05She always put truth before blood.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09She was throwing around the threats.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12Bridie and Jimmy and Frankie were upset.

0:32:12 > 0:32:13I mean, I was willing to let it pass.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15I mean, that girl was like a...

0:32:18 > 0:32:20I loved her...more than my own.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Yeah, Stevie had a fight with Bridie,

0:32:24 > 0:32:27threatened to tell Frankie the truth.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30When the truth is, the only mother who will protect him now

0:32:30 > 0:32:31is the one who brought him up.

0:32:31 > 0:32:35It would have devastated Frankie to know who his mother really was.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39That's why someone... had to stop her.

0:32:57 > 0:33:01He didn't need much persuading. He was in a terrible way!

0:33:01 > 0:33:03He'd been on the lash with Jimmy.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05He failed to get it up with some little tart

0:33:05 > 0:33:08that Jimmy found for him. Came crying to me.

0:33:09 > 0:33:14Frankie came to realise the error of his ways...in confiding in her.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16He knew the damage that she could do.

0:33:18 > 0:33:21He told me that Stevie was going to her boss.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24He told Stevie things about my business.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28Things he really shouldn't have said.

0:33:30 > 0:33:33Now, I knew that the truth would come out - the whole truth -

0:33:33 > 0:33:36the good and the bad. I couldn't let Frankie know that.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41It's a terrible thing to know,

0:33:41 > 0:33:43that you were destined for a toilet pan.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47Because there is nothing more precious than human life.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50A lesson, sadly, Stevie learned too late.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52GIGGLING IN DISTANCE

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Ha-ha!

0:33:54 > 0:33:56That's my Monica's girls!

0:33:56 > 0:33:57Ah!

0:34:01 > 0:34:02Who was the father?

0:34:12 > 0:34:14HE WHISPERS: Christ...

0:34:16 > 0:34:17She was 14.

0:34:20 > 0:34:21You're a monster.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23Monsters are for children.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25We're all grown-ups here.

0:34:27 > 0:34:29I'd hoped employing Tom Read

0:34:29 > 0:34:33might have provided a few insurances,

0:34:33 > 0:34:34but in the absence of those...

0:34:36 > 0:34:39Do you really want Frankie to know the truth?

0:34:39 > 0:34:41The whole truth?

0:34:42 > 0:34:45That boy won't come back from that.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47Prison?

0:34:47 > 0:34:49It would break Stevie's heart.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54I will leave it...in your hands.

0:35:04 > 0:35:08- CONFUSION OF VOICES FRANKIE:- We went for a drink, I got pissed too quick.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10We went home and we... we watched TV.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12RIVER: Frankie, you're lying.

0:35:12 > 0:35:13- BRIDIE:- You saying I'm lying?

0:35:13 > 0:35:15No, Bridie, I'm saying he's your son...

0:35:15 > 0:35:16The person to fear the most is...

0:35:16 > 0:35:18..and a mother protects her son.

0:35:18 > 0:35:20..the one to whom you gave all your trust.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22- CREAM:- If only you had replied to Stevie's question.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24We talk, she crosses the road...

0:35:24 > 0:35:26If only you had taken her in your arms...

0:35:26 > 0:35:29..she turns her head...and there's a look of recognition.

0:35:29 > 0:35:32- If only.- She knew something was coming.- If only.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34- GUNSHOT - If only.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45- BRIDIE:- You want to know who needs protecting? Frankie.

0:35:45 > 0:35:46- STEVIE:- Do you blame yourself?

0:35:46 > 0:35:49- CHRISSIE:- I should have sensed something was wrong.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53I ignored it, River, I did, I ignored it, and you did, too.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56- STEVIE:- You don't know what to do.

0:36:23 > 0:36:24Sorry.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28Sorry.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30You're late.

0:36:30 > 0:36:31I am indeed late, yeah.

0:36:37 > 0:36:41Ask me why I bothered to come again, after last time.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Why did you come back?

0:36:45 > 0:36:48And it wasn't because I missed your sorry faces!

0:36:51 > 0:36:53You want to hear my story?

0:36:53 > 0:36:57I'm six years old, I'm sitting on a bus together with my mother.

0:36:57 > 0:36:58It's the last stop.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03My grandmother's house is the last stop and it's a beautiful day.

0:37:04 > 0:37:08And my grandmother says to me, "Boy, go and swim in the lake."

0:37:10 > 0:37:12And I swim and I swim and I swim.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16And when I come back, my mother is gone.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21Has got back on that bus and driven away.

0:37:21 > 0:37:25And I don't see her again for eight years.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27Eight years.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31And when I do see her again, I am 14 and she's stoned.

0:37:31 > 0:37:33And we have nothing to say.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36What would you like to say?

0:37:44 > 0:37:48All of the things you want to say to someone who suddenly went away.

0:37:49 > 0:37:50How you miss them.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58How the air was sucked out of your lungs the moment they left.

0:38:01 > 0:38:02How you will never, ever...

0:38:04 > 0:38:06..fully inhale again in the same way.

0:38:11 > 0:38:12How you miss them.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16How you miss them till your teeth ache.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36Thank you.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38UNCERTAIN APPLAUSE

0:38:39 > 0:38:41Yes, thank you, River.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44I-I was almost moved for a moment, there, my friend.

0:38:46 > 0:38:47Poor River.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50- WHISPERS:- All alone.

0:38:51 > 0:38:55Why don't you tell them about the day you thought you were Rasputin?

0:39:02 > 0:39:05You have made your own hell, River.

0:39:05 > 0:39:07You have bowed down to despair.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10All I have ever done is shown you that those who feel

0:39:10 > 0:39:12capacity for love also feel hate!

0:39:14 > 0:39:16FEEL HATE, RIVER!

0:39:16 > 0:39:19UNTIL DEATH IS YOUR ONLY ESCAPE!

0:39:21 > 0:39:23No matter. The mind is its own place...

0:39:25 > 0:39:29..and, in itself, can make a heaven of hell.

0:39:29 > 0:39:30I'm your hell.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32I will never leave you.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36I'm not listening to you any more.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38I'M NOT LISTENING!

0:40:03 > 0:40:04I'm sorry.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55When I was 14, I was riding buses and buying records.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00You weren't to know.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04- You were... - Because I didn't tell you.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14Where we're from...

0:41:16 > 0:41:18..where we come from, that...

0:41:18 > 0:41:20doesn't make us, River.

0:41:22 > 0:41:24It can't be all we are.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34I don't know what you want from me.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18I've put on another three pounds.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25- I know. SCOFFS:- Right!

0:42:25 > 0:42:27I know the truth, Frankie.

0:42:38 > 0:42:39I, uh...

0:42:40 > 0:42:44I passed this bloke I went to school with yesterday.

0:42:44 > 0:42:45He had his kids with him.

0:42:45 > 0:42:48One on his shoulder and the other was in the buggy.

0:42:50 > 0:42:52And he asked about Stevie.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56Gave his condolences and that.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01But all I could think was...

0:43:01 > 0:43:03"That's a real man."

0:43:06 > 0:43:08"That's... That's what a real man...is."

0:43:14 > 0:43:15Ask me why.

0:43:19 > 0:43:21Come on. Ask me why I did it.

0:43:23 > 0:43:25Why?

0:43:25 > 0:43:26This time...

0:43:27 > 0:43:31..she were going to let her do it to us again.

0:43:31 > 0:43:34"Frankie. She's going to break the family.

0:43:34 > 0:43:36"Again."

0:43:36 > 0:43:38No, Mummy. No.

0:43:40 > 0:43:44So tired of always being at Michael's beck and call.

0:43:45 > 0:43:48I thought..."Stevie."

0:43:49 > 0:43:51If I tell Stevie,

0:43:51 > 0:43:54Stevie could always make it...

0:43:54 > 0:43:55Better.

0:43:58 > 0:44:00Only, this time...

0:44:02 > 0:44:03HE WHIMPERS

0:44:03 > 0:44:07Stevie wasn't listening any more.

0:44:10 > 0:44:12Why wasn't she listening any more?

0:44:18 > 0:44:22"We have to do this, now!" But...

0:44:24 > 0:44:26"But what about Mummy?

0:44:26 > 0:44:29"We can't do that to her."

0:44:29 > 0:44:31Because Stevie left me.

0:44:33 > 0:44:36Stevie left me...

0:44:36 > 0:44:37with Mummy...

0:44:37 > 0:44:40for so many years.

0:44:40 > 0:44:42No! You weren't there!

0:44:42 > 0:44:44YOU WEREN'T THERE!

0:44:44 > 0:44:46It was me alone with her!

0:44:46 > 0:44:49Me alone with Mummy! ME! NOT HER!

0:44:49 > 0:44:51Year after year.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53Do you know what that feels like?!

0:45:18 > 0:45:20Francis Eric Stevenson...

0:45:21 > 0:45:23..I arrest you for the murder

0:45:23 > 0:45:26of Detective Sergeant Jacqueline Stevenson.

0:46:05 > 0:46:07River, what are you doing here?

0:46:09 > 0:46:10The cleaner let me in.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14Oh, the kids will be back soon.

0:46:14 > 0:46:15You have foxes.

0:46:18 > 0:46:20I was going to make some...some tea.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22- She's Columbian.- Who?

0:46:24 > 0:46:26- Your cleaner.- Oh, yes.

0:46:28 > 0:46:29- Is she?- Yeah.

0:46:31 > 0:46:32She's new, so...

0:46:37 > 0:46:38Tom's on his way home.

0:46:41 > 0:46:42They've granted bail.

0:46:45 > 0:46:46I'll need to resign.

0:46:48 > 0:46:49I know.

0:46:49 > 0:46:52I know, you think I'm an idiot, but he's my husband and...

0:46:57 > 0:46:58I have to tell the kids.

0:47:00 > 0:47:01Right.

0:47:03 > 0:47:05- What will you say?- The truth.

0:47:06 > 0:47:09That their father is a weak, dishonest...

0:47:12 > 0:47:14..faithless shit.

0:47:17 > 0:47:19Sounds good. CHRISSIE CHUCKLES

0:47:22 > 0:47:24What are you doing here?

0:48:09 > 0:48:11'Even if you were just colleagues,

0:48:11 > 0:48:14'there was love, perhaps?

0:48:14 > 0:48:17'There should be more than one word for love.

0:48:17 > 0:48:20'I've seen love that kills and I've seen love that redeems.

0:48:20 > 0:48:22'I've seen love that believes in the guilty,

0:48:22 > 0:48:24'and love that saves the bereaved.

0:48:30 > 0:48:32'What we will do for love.

0:48:35 > 0:48:36'Die for it, even.'

0:48:59 > 0:49:00Which one?

0:49:02 > 0:49:03Red.

0:49:40 > 0:49:43Nice, blood. Nice.

0:49:45 > 0:49:47Don't be nervous, man.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49You can do this.

0:50:02 > 0:50:04- Table for two?- Yes.

0:50:13 > 0:50:15Hurry up. Come on, hurry up.

0:50:18 > 0:50:20You're wearing lipstick.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26I've ordered crispy duck, pancakes.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28There can't be many points in seaweed, can there?

0:50:28 > 0:50:30No. Practically pointless.

0:50:37 > 0:50:38You look tired.

0:50:39 > 0:50:40I should take a vacation.

0:50:42 > 0:50:44I was thinking of a week in Ibiza.

0:50:49 > 0:50:50And then you say...

0:50:54 > 0:50:57I took my mother to dinner with my first pay cheque.

0:50:57 > 0:50:59She didn't eat anything.

0:50:59 > 0:51:00Wanted to go.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05- And she said...- "Mais je n'aime pas la cuisine Francaise...

0:51:07 > 0:51:09"..mon cheri."

0:51:13 > 0:51:14You speak French now?

0:51:19 > 0:51:21When what she meant to say was...

0:51:24 > 0:51:26"I'm so proud of you.

0:51:29 > 0:51:30"My beautiful boy.

0:51:31 > 0:51:34"You have grown into a fine young man.

0:51:36 > 0:51:38"And, one day...

0:51:40 > 0:51:42"..you will sit here...

0:51:42 > 0:51:44"with the woman you love."

0:51:48 > 0:51:50And I did. I have.

0:51:54 > 0:51:55I am.

0:51:59 > 0:52:00Then say it.

0:52:21 > 0:52:22Stevie!

0:52:24 > 0:52:26We can skip the next bit.

0:52:26 > 0:52:27No.

0:52:27 > 0:52:29No, no.

0:52:29 > 0:52:32This is when you give me the 10,000...

0:52:32 > 0:52:35- and you say...- Look after Frankie.

0:52:38 > 0:52:41And I tried. I tried.

0:52:42 > 0:52:44And I failed.

0:52:46 > 0:52:48And then you say?

0:52:59 > 0:53:00Stevie, I...

0:53:01 > 0:53:02Still can't say it.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12Screw you, Mr Magoo.

0:53:14 > 0:53:16GUNSHOT

0:53:51 > 0:53:52I love you.

0:53:57 > 0:53:58I love you more than life.

0:54:01 > 0:54:02More than life.

0:54:08 > 0:54:10And then you say...

0:54:10 > 0:54:12HE LAUGHS THROUGH TEARS

0:54:17 > 0:54:19Sing, you nutter. Sing.

0:54:30 > 0:54:33# Oh, I love to love

0:54:33 > 0:54:36# But my baby just loves to dance

0:54:36 > 0:54:38# He wants to dance He loves to dance

0:54:56 > 0:54:59# Oh, I love to love

0:54:59 > 0:55:03# But my baby just loves to dance

0:55:03 > 0:55:07# The minute the band begins to swing it

0:55:07 > 0:55:09# He's on his feet to dig it

0:55:09 > 0:55:13# And dance the night away

0:55:13 > 0:55:16# Stop I'm spinning like a top

0:55:16 > 0:55:19# We'll dance until we drop

0:55:19 > 0:55:22# But if I had my way

0:55:22 > 0:55:25# Oh, I love to love

0:55:25 > 0:55:29# But my baby just loves to dance

0:55:29 > 0:55:31# He wants to dance He loves to dance

0:55:39 > 0:55:42# Oh, I love to love

0:55:42 > 0:55:46# But he won't give our love a chance

0:55:46 > 0:55:49# No, no, no

0:55:49 > 0:55:52# Oh, I love to love

0:55:52 > 0:55:57# But my baby just loves to dance... #

0:56:16 > 0:56:18All right?

0:56:18 > 0:56:19Yeah.

0:56:22 > 0:56:23You eaten yet?

0:56:24 > 0:56:26No.

0:56:26 > 0:56:28Thought not.

0:56:43 > 0:56:4517.

0:56:45 > 0:56:47There are 17 points in seaweed.

0:56:53 > 0:56:55And I say...

0:56:58 > 0:57:00..I love you, too.

0:57:26 > 0:57:28QUIET CHATTER

0:57:41 > 0:57:44Yeah, it's in the brown... Er, no, it's the pink one, OK?

0:57:44 > 0:57:47- HER VOICE FADES INTO BACKGROUND - No, that's nappies.

0:57:50 > 0:57:52I brought enough for two.

0:58:27 > 0:58:29Hello!

0:58:29 > 0:58:30HE LAUGHS
