0:00:14 > 0:00:15MUMBLES TO HIMSELF
0:00:27 > 0:00:29- Can I help?- Please.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35HE CONTINUES TO MUMBLE, IN SERBIAN
0:00:52 > 0:00:54SHE SCREAMS
0:00:54 > 0:00:56No, no, no, it's OK.

0:01:40 > 0:01:48# Silentium. #
0:02:02 > 0:02:04OK, I'll get the area sealed off.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07All right, oh, and don't forget I need the DCI's phone number.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09Who is she?
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Chrissy Reed.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Worked for CID, up in Yorkshire.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Must have found a way of flushing her down the M1.- Charming(!)
0:02:20 > 0:02:21How are you doing, Jack?
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Not bad.
0:02:23 > 0:02:28- Wondered if our paths might cross. And here you are.- Indeed.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30So, this is nice.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Nikki Alexander. Home Office Pathologist.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34DI Reed.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37That's right - DI.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42So, if you want to step on my crime scene, take a deep breath and get over yourself, Jack.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46What was that?!
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Neighbour called the police. Basement vent's out back.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Smell was getting a bit ripe.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Two dead. Both female.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Brunette's been shot in the head and arm.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Blonde victim's been shot twice in the chest.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Were they totally covered when they were found?- Yep.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Possibly trying to contain the smell.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Who owns the house? - Landlord's a Mr Kolahi.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Only managed to speak to his wife so far, but she seemed to think
0:03:28 > 0:03:31the house was rented to a man who'd just moved back from Dubai.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Might explain the heat.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Central heating's been set to be on constantly - 22 degrees.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37If you could find out how long that's been the case,
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- it would help with time-since-death. - I'll get on to the gas company,
0:03:40 > 0:03:44see if they can give us an indication of usage. But are we talking days, weeks?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- I can't tell you that yet.- Bloating suggests at least four days,
0:03:47 > 0:03:51but bodies are making the transition from bloat to active decay.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54That puts TSI at somewhere between seven to ten days.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Find a gun?- No.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59So, it's not a suicide pact.
0:03:59 > 0:04:04A naked suicide pact, in which the deceased end up under polythene?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Sherlock would explain it.
0:04:06 > 0:04:07This is going to be such fun(!)
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Think she could have died later?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Why do you say that?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Far fewer blowfly larvae on the blonde victim.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47No, the bodies seem to be at a similar point in the decay cycle, to me.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53So, what is it with you and DI Reed?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Is it specifically her you don't like,
0:04:55 > 0:04:58or the fact that she's clearly a competent, ambitious woman?
0:04:58 > 0:05:01No problem with competent, ambitious women.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03We had a run-in, that's all.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Matter of fact, we used to be good mates.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07When did you last see her?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09I dunno. Three, four years ago?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11About the time you came to London?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Oh, my God.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17The overly competitive sparring, the mutual dislike.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Were you in a relationship with her?
0:05:19 > 0:05:21All right, just keep it quiet, will you?
0:05:21 > 0:05:23- Because she's an older woman? - Because she's married.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24WAS married.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30Are we done here? Top priority's to get these women identified.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33I've got my team scouring missing persons, but I'd like to get
0:05:33 > 0:05:36started on the postmortems today, if you can manage that.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- Jack, can I show you something?- Yeah.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Padlock clasps. Recently removed.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52What's the matter, Jack, can't even look at me?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54I moved down to this shithole to make DCI,
0:05:54 > 0:05:57so if you want to rake over our past, I suggest you invite me
0:05:57 > 0:06:00for a drink, instead of gossiping with the pretty blonde doctor.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03So, padlock clasps?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06They weren't brought here to be killed. They were kept down there.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08But why remove the locks?
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Find many prints in the house?
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Nothing, so far.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Well, maybe they're forensically aware.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15If they bought the padlocks and clasps,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18they know there's a chance we could trace the purchase,
0:06:18 > 0:06:22especially if they were in a rush, bought them locally. You should check out local hardware shops.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26So he brings them here, locks them up, does whatever he does,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28kills them, buggers off, but leaves the bodies.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31How does that fit with your forensically-aware criminal mastermind?
0:06:31 > 0:06:34- Maybe they were interrupted. Maybe they planned to come back.- They?
0:06:34 > 0:06:35What makes you think this is one man?
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Two women. Both suffered violent deaths. Both naked.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42You know as well as I do that this is probably a sexual crime
0:06:42 > 0:06:44and the perpetrator's almost certainly a man working alone.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Time's running out.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Now you need to find someone else. Do you understand?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54- I've tried.- Try harder.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05I know you're strong.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09But now it...it's all about the fight.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12You just have to do whatever it takes.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23SIGHS HEAVILY
0:07:27 > 0:07:29This doesn't feel like a sexual crime. Too clinical.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Whoever did this, they've been careful. No prints. No marks. Nothing.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36And you're not just saying that because DI Reed DOES think that sex is the basis of his MO?
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Credit me with a degree of professionalism.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41And the fact that they were naked doesn't suggest sexual motive?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Since when was removing clothes solely indicative of sexual intent?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Clothes can give a clue as to identity.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49So maybe obscuring their identity's important?
0:07:53 > 0:07:54Maybe he dumped the clothes.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31DOOR OPENS
0:08:54 > 0:08:56MOBILE RINGS
0:09:03 > 0:09:05- 'Hello, Mr Benson?' - Yeah, what is it?
0:09:05 > 0:09:09It's Leo Dalton. Thank you for your messages
0:09:09 > 0:09:11and I'm sorry it took me a while to get back to you.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Giving up?
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Oh, two weeks. Killing me.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Given the condition of the bodies,
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Jack's happy to release them if you are.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- Great.- Should be able to get onto the postmortems after lunch.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- Appreciate it. - Would you like to be present?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Yeah.- I'm sorry for talking like that.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34It was unprofessional.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- We all do it. - And it was unkind.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43Are you OK?
0:09:43 > 0:09:44Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47I've not been sleeping well.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49CLEARS THROAT
0:09:49 > 0:09:50Eyes OK?
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Wouldn't do to have them think I was anything other than a flat-out bitch now, would it?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Hi.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Unused mattress on the bed.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05The kitchen's cheap, but newly installed.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07And the oven still has the instructions inside.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10I don't think anyone was living in the main part of the house.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Fits with neighbour interviews. No signs of life. No-one came or went.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- No post delivered.- But if they were held here for any length of time,
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- someone must have been bringing them food, water.- Someone who smoked.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- Found this in the garden. When was the last time it rained? - About two weeks ago, I think.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Cigarette butts turn brown when sodden. This one hasn't.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Great, so our man...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Or men.- Could've been a smoker.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32So we've narrowed it down to 20% of the population.
0:10:32 > 0:10:33Think we can get DNA?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35If you ask nicely.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38You'll have to forgive my lack of manners.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Whoever did this, I've got a feeling he's not done yet.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51DOOR SQUEAKS UPON OPENING
0:10:53 > 0:10:54Time for work.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Take my advice. Keep your distance.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09We were just chatting. I don't know what your problem is with her?
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Maybe she's not as hard-nosed as you think.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14She's recently divorced, she's in a new city...
0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Right, so now you're best friends? - Are we five? Is this a playground?
0:11:18 > 0:11:20She was just trying to be friendly.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22She's trying to tap you for information about me.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Oh, because two professional women couldn't possibly talk about anything except you(!)
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Chrissy's sniffing out promotion and she wants to make sure
0:11:28 > 0:11:31I haven't said anything that could jeopardise that, OK?
0:11:33 > 0:11:34What happened between you two?
0:11:37 > 0:11:39You advertised the house through a local paper?
0:11:39 > 0:11:41HE SPEAKS OWN LANGUAGE
0:11:41 > 0:11:44No agency? Mr Kolahi, I don't think you're quite getting this.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46There's been a double murder at your property.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49If you don't talk to me, I'm going to have to start joining the dots myself
0:11:49 > 0:11:51and, at the moment, you're one of the only dots I've got.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53How...how did they die?
0:11:53 > 0:11:58- I can't tell you that right now. - Well, his name was, em, Bairstow.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02George...George Bairstow. And we didn't use an agency.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05We wanted to keep the costs down... There.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10The tenancy agreement's in there, too. Everything's above board.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12I'm sure it was.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16So, what can you tell me about this George Bairstow?
0:12:16 > 0:12:20Not much. Never actually met him.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26How old was Michael when he died?
0:12:26 > 0:12:28- Four months. - He was pronounced dead at the house?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34And was your wife arrested immediately
0:12:34 > 0:12:36or after the postmortem?
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Couple of hours later.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41D'you have a copy of the prosecution's postmortem reports?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Huh.- What?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50The pathologist is well respected.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53You know him?
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- Mm-hmm, very well.- He's a friend.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57It's a small community.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know, I know.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03You're all mates and you all back each other up.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08Mr Benson. I assure you that my friendship with Professor Fell is irrelevant.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10All that matters is the quality of his work.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13And if it is found to be lacking, then the quality of mine...
0:13:14 > 0:13:15'Whoever this Bairstow is'
0:13:15 > 0:13:18and I very much doubt that's his real name,
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Kolahi never met him, never spoke to him.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22So how did he get the keys to the tenant?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Ah, that's the good bit.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Bairstow e-mailed saying he'd be arriving late, and asked Kolahi
0:13:27 > 0:13:29if he could leave the keys some place he could find them.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Even Kolahi wasn't that stupid.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34He agreed to leave them at a friend's restaurant nearby.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36I've sent someone to interview.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38I'm just going to start getting ready.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44- So, you and her?- Oh, please.
0:13:44 > 0:13:45Not your type?
0:13:45 > 0:13:49According to her, we're barely the same species.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17VEHICLE REVS AWAY
0:14:25 > 0:14:28The report says that Michael was smothered.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Shona did not smother him!
0:14:36 > 0:14:37Look, I'm sorry.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40It's just that people keep saying that she done this
0:14:40 > 0:14:41and I know she couldn't.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02There are four broken bones - two ribs and both femurs.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06We don't know how that happened.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17I have to ask this, because it's not mentioned here but, um...
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Why weren't you charged, along with your wife?
0:15:20 > 0:15:24Cos I wasn't there. Me and Shona, we're separated.
0:15:24 > 0:15:29- So how come social services removed your other son...?- Darius.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Darius, thank you. Why don't you have custody of him?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I got priors.
0:15:37 > 0:15:43ABH, GBH, little bit of drugs... Look I'm trying to do better.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Both postmortems conclude that Michael was smothered by your wife.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52I have to believe there's a possibility
0:15:52 > 0:15:54that both pathologists were wrong.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57They were.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Well, unfortunately, your telling me that doesn't make it true.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04She didn't do it. Shona's been in jail for months now.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Darius has been in, like, three foster homes...
0:16:06 > 0:16:10If she gets sent down, he gets adopted. We lose him, too.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- Look, I got four days to stop that from happening.- Four days?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Shona's trial starts on Thursday.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Look, she didn't kill him.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28I promise you that.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31She did not kill our son.
0:16:52 > 0:16:57That's right, just keep walking... Baby-killin' bitch.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Statement on my desk in two hours. Thanks.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Restaurant owner's given a description of the man who picked up the keys.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08Eastern European?
0:17:10 > 0:17:12The bullets were fired from a Makarov semi-automatic pistol.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Now I've seen one or two,
0:17:14 > 0:17:16but it's predominantly used in Russia, Eastern Europe.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Where are you going with this?
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Dead women. Young women.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23A degree of professionalism. Eastern European gun.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25Trafficking?
0:17:25 > 0:17:29Show you a Rorschach Test, you see a bat when everyone else sees bunnies.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31We'll have a better idea when she's open, but visual inspection
0:17:31 > 0:17:34suggests that the victim was in her early to mid-twenties.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Young woman. Fits with the trafficking profile.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Nothing changes. Like a dog with a bone.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Man who picked up the keys, what else do we know?
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Caucasian. 30s, 40s. Average height. Brown hair.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21Bloating and marbling on the skin's surface suggests
0:18:21 > 0:18:24time since death in line with provisional entomology observed at scene.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Roughly six to seven days...
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Stuart, can we photograph, please?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Another dead girl.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37I was as upset as you were about what happened.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Were you? Seems like you did pretty well out of it.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42I wasn't promoted on the back of one case.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44I was promoted because I'm a damned good copper.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46And if I didn't have a pair of tits,
0:18:46 > 0:18:48I probably would have been promoted ten years earlier.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52I didn't do anything wrong.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55If you still think I did, maybe you're the problem, not me.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00The brunette victim has two small burn marks. Upper thorax.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Taser?
0:19:04 > 0:19:08No signs of skin penetration associated with tasering.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12I'd say she was attacked with a stun gun.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Perpetrator sounds pretty organised.
0:19:14 > 0:19:19Almost like this was part of some well-funded criminal enterprise.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21- Where are you going? - Date with some maggots.
0:19:23 > 0:19:28The bullet's passed through the left side of the victim's frontal bone,
0:19:28 > 0:19:31emerging through the occipital bone,
0:19:31 > 0:19:33right side, at the rear of the skull.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36The entry wound is small,
0:19:36 > 0:19:40but there's no evidence of powder tattooing or soot deposition,
0:19:40 > 0:19:44suggesting a minimum firing range of between four to five feet,
0:19:44 > 0:19:46depending on the weapon's calibre.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49It also suggests the possibility...
0:19:51 > 0:19:54..the wound to the forearm was a defence wound.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59So, maybe the victim was untied at that point?
0:19:59 > 0:20:02There's a small tattoo on the underside of the wrist,
0:20:02 > 0:20:06a cross with wings attached, could be some kind of memorial tattoo.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11There are contusions on the wrists,
0:20:11 > 0:20:14that are suggestive of the use of restraints.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Subcutaneous dissection should confirm.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20So, the victim's wrists were definitely tied at some point?
0:20:20 > 0:20:24There are also cuts on the wrists, as if she'd fought to free herself.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29No sign of rope patterning. Looks like he may have used handcuffs.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Handcuffs, stun gun, pistol.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Whoever he is, he likes to be prepared.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Dr Ballinger?
0:21:14 > 0:21:15Your briefcase, sir.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32And that one came from the blonde victim, as well?
0:21:32 > 0:21:34No, I'm just throwing them in randomly(!)
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Well, then, I think we can call that a pattern.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43SHE WHIMPERS
0:21:59 > 0:22:01SHE PANTS
0:22:04 > 0:22:08The absence of bruising around the gunshot wound on the blonde victim's chest,
0:22:08 > 0:22:12and the fact that there was far less internal bleeding than I'd expect,
0:22:12 > 0:22:15both suggest a complete lack of vital reaction.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17What are you saying?
0:22:17 > 0:22:19That she was already dead when she was shot?
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Well, Jack found bullets buried in the floor beneath her body,
0:22:22 > 0:22:25suggesting that she was already lying on the ground, face-up,
0:22:25 > 0:22:26when she was shot.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Unlike the brunette victim,
0:22:28 > 0:22:30the blonde victim was shot postmortem.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32And without further tests,
0:22:32 > 0:22:35I can't really tell you how this woman died.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41PANTING
0:22:53 > 0:22:55The blonde victim was pregnant?
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Coming to the end of her first trimester.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00But you feel confident neither woman was sexually assaulted?
0:23:00 > 0:23:01That's not what she said.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05Neither body displays the usual indicators of sexual assault, but
0:23:05 > 0:23:08because the bodies are so degraded it's difficult to be definitive.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10She was three months pregnant...
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Could she have been down there as long as that?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- The tenancy started two weeks ago. - They could have been held elsewhere first.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17If the stun gun was used to aid capture,
0:23:17 > 0:23:19then healing injuries suggests that they were taken
0:23:19 > 0:23:24- between one and two weeks ago. - Missing persons aren't coming up with likely matches in that time frame.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28- Cos no-one knows they're missing. - Cos in your mind, we're looking at Eastern European women.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31- Why's that such a ridiculous idea? - Can we just stick to what we know?
0:23:31 > 0:23:35Two women, abducted in the last fortnight, then found naked
0:23:35 > 0:23:38in the basement of a house that shows no other signs of habitation.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40They weren't naked, they were covered,
0:23:40 > 0:23:43which to my mind suggests a level of guilt and horror
0:23:43 > 0:23:45in the perpetrator, that's usually associated
0:23:45 > 0:23:48with uncontrollable urges, which he later regrets.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51And when it comes to regrets, sex is usually right up there.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56But the perpetrators knew what they were doing.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59How many randy psychos would have the nous to forge documentation?
0:23:59 > 0:24:03And they were forensically aware, organised, left no traces.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- Cigarette butt?- Clarissa? - Gone for DNA.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09And they had enough contacts to procure a pistol and a stun gun.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12You can get hold of a small arsenal if you go to the right car-boot sale.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15That is bollocks and you know it.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17So, basically, we have no idea.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Two unidentified women, both murdered for reasons unknown
0:24:20 > 0:24:22and, in one case, we're not even sure what killed her.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25- Which victim were you struggling to find cause of death for?- The blonde.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33SHE PANTS AND SOBS
0:24:52 > 0:24:55One of these was found on the blonde victim, one on the brunette.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Slight fluctuations aside,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00we know the rate of decomposition's a constant
0:25:00 > 0:25:02when dead bodies are exposed to the same external conditions.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04By examining the two victims,
0:25:04 > 0:25:06we can see they died roughly contemporaneously.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09And we'd expect the entomology to back that up.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10But it doesn't?
0:25:10 > 0:25:13It does and it doesn't. Blowfly larvae from our brunette victim...
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Blowfly larvae from our blonde victim.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Both at the same stage of development, but spot the difference.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Size.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Exactly. There's a size difference between the populations
0:25:22 > 0:25:26- on the respective bodies...- So what would cause that?- I've not finished.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Mortality rate in the larvae from the blonde victim
0:25:28 > 0:25:31is also much higher... Talking as much as 40% to 50%.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33You think she was poisoned?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35- Worth testing for, isn't it? - Will it help identification?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Possibly.- Not good enough. Finding identity takes precedence.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40- The tattoo.- It's too generic!
0:25:40 > 0:25:43I'm getting sweet sod all from missing persons,
0:25:43 > 0:25:46I need you to work the tattoo. See if we can get anything from it.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49I'll make sure we get fingerprints and dental records sent off straight away.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Thanks, Nikki. Oh, you fancy a drink tonight?
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Yeah.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Great.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Huh. You'll see.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05- HE SIGHS - I'm off out.- Where?
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Toxicology. Mate owes me a favour. - But DI Reed said to focus on the tattoo.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11I don't care what she said. She's wrong.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14You focus on the tattoo, if you like, I'll do the grown-up stuff.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20- How's Liza? - Um, well, I wouldn't know.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- We... We split up last summer. - Oh, Richard!
0:26:23 > 0:26:26No, it's all right, and before you start feeling too sorry for me,
0:26:26 > 0:26:29I...I got married. Again.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33Eleanor. She's lovely. And don't get upset that you didn't get invited.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35It was all very last-minute.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38It was just us and her family. Barbados, and um, and the kids.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Kids?!- Well, Eleanor's siblings.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44What she lacks in years, she makes up for in enthusiasm.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Leo, look, lovely as it is always to see you, I'm pretty sure
0:26:46 > 0:26:49you didn't call me down here to discuss the follies of the flesh?
0:26:49 > 0:26:51No.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Excuse me?
0:27:14 > 0:27:17- DI Reed, Serious Crime. D'you live here?- Yeah.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Has he done something wrong?- Sorry?
0:27:20 > 0:27:23- The fella from that house. - You saw someone enter that house?
0:27:23 > 0:27:26I saw him come out when I was heading for work. Why, what's happened?
0:27:26 > 0:27:30- When was this?- First day I went back to work after me holidays.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Ten days ago?
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- What time was it? - Just after five in the morning.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Can you describe the man you saw?
0:28:17 > 0:28:20HE YELLS
0:28:22 > 0:28:25He was tall, over six foot. Athletic physique.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Hooded top. Probably about mid-forties?
0:28:29 > 0:28:31Need a sketch artist, pronto.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Where were you going at five in the morning?
0:28:41 > 0:28:42He's a smoker.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Four healing fractures.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Clearly, the mother had been abusing the child since day one.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22So when you found the petechial haemorrhage...
0:29:22 > 0:29:25How often have we seen it? Difficult baby.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29- How do we know he was difficult? - Neighbour said he cried all the time.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31Mother snapped. Smothered him. Petechial haemorrhage.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34A haemorrhage like that could have more than one cause, Richard.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37Yes, it could, but given the injury narrative, d'you think it's likely?
0:29:37 > 0:29:40Seriously, why are you bothering with this, Leo, it can hardly be for the money?
0:29:42 > 0:29:44I've been reading round the postmortem
0:29:44 > 0:29:46and the health visitor says that she was an excellent mother.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50Leo, if she hadn't appeared that way they'd have whipped the baby off her.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Please, don't tell me you fell for the mother's sob story?
0:29:52 > 0:29:55- No, I haven't met her. - No? Well, perhaps you should.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59Police said she was as cold as Christmas in Krakow.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Nevertheless, looking at the case in the round,
0:30:01 > 0:30:04- I think there's another explanation. - Such as?
0:30:05 > 0:30:06Sudden Infant Death?
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Yes, of course, if you discount the historic fractures.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Which are indicative of abuse, yes, but not cause of death.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16We don't know who looked after that child in the months up to his death.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17Friends, neighbours?
0:30:17 > 0:30:21Multiple healing fractures sustained over a period of four months.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Do you really want to look past the mother for that?
0:30:26 > 0:30:30Fine, OK. Leo, you do what you think is right, but I just...
0:30:32 > 0:30:35I just don't want you to make a fool of yourself, that's all.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Hundreds of variants on the winged cross... Jack's right.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46I don't think it's specific enough to help with identity.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51Jack seems to have issues with Detective Inspector Reed,
0:30:51 > 0:30:52doesn't he?
0:30:52 > 0:30:55Their relationship may have been more than professional.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58- Yes, I heard about the bed-hopping. - No, it wasn't just sex.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59He liked her.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04So his affection manifests itself in fits of juvenile antagonism?
0:31:04 > 0:31:05Maybe he feels let down.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08They fell out over a job.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11If you want the full story, you'll have to ask Jack.
0:31:21 > 0:31:22Can I have a word?
0:31:24 > 0:31:27I put Michael to sleep in his cot...
0:31:28 > 0:31:31..same as I did every afternoon.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35But this time...
0:31:35 > 0:31:39he just slept and slept.
0:31:42 > 0:31:43So I went to wake him up.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Only he wouldn't wake up.
0:31:49 > 0:31:52- And when did you call the paramedics?- Straight away.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56And in that time, did Michael make any movements?
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Did he...cry?
0:31:59 > 0:32:00No.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10It seemed to take so long for them to get to us...
0:32:12 > 0:32:14..and I just kept holding him and holding him.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25(Sorry.)
0:32:27 > 0:32:29I'm trying to be strong, I really am.
0:32:31 > 0:32:32It's just...
0:32:34 > 0:32:39..when I think about Michael... And now Darius...
0:32:40 > 0:32:45And if I'm convicted, then he's going to be adopted and...
0:32:52 > 0:32:54Why do you think it took the paramedics so long to get to you?
0:32:56 > 0:32:59We lived up on the 19th floor...
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Lift had been broken for months.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07Well, that must have been very hard with a young baby.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10- Mm.- Could you get out much?
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Not really, no.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Spent most of our time in the flat.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57Hi. Everything OK?
0:33:58 > 0:33:59Fine.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Leo?
0:34:02 > 0:34:05When you interviewed Jack, do you remember if he said
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- why he'd left Yorkshire?- Er...
0:34:08 > 0:34:11Fresh challenges, new pastures. The usual, why?
0:34:13 > 0:34:14No reason.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18Where have you been?
0:34:18 > 0:34:19Had a drink with Richard.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23And a...
0:34:23 > 0:34:25quick chat with the defendant.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28So you're definitely taking on the case?
0:34:28 > 0:34:30After last year, I completely understand if you feel...
0:34:30 > 0:34:32No, it's not about my feelings.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35This family have been torn apart by the death of their child.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39And they're going to be torn apart even more.
0:34:39 > 0:34:40There's a gap in Richard's report.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44He didn't investigate any kind of alternative cause
0:34:44 > 0:34:48for the multiple fractures. I mean, not even blood tests.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50I think there's a possibility
0:34:50 > 0:34:53that the child was suffering from Vitamin D deficiency.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57Well, you have to do what you feel is right.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05BIRDS SQUAWK
0:35:28 > 0:35:30SHE WHIMPERS
0:35:50 > 0:35:52Hi.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55Change of plan. Mind if we watch some DVDs?
0:35:55 > 0:35:57Sure.
0:35:59 > 0:36:00Nice place.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Postman saw him going out at five in the morning.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11This is the only place open 24 hours within walking distance.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14We're looking for a tall guy in a hooded top buying fags,
0:36:14 > 0:36:16possibly, sandwiches.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Jack working on the tattoo when you left?
0:36:21 > 0:36:24Thanks for getting this one, cheers. I really appreciate it.
0:36:26 > 0:36:27Not sure.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32Good to know the tail's still wagging the bloody dog.
0:36:33 > 0:36:34You and Jack...
0:36:34 > 0:36:38All this antagonism because you had an affair.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41And I thought Northerners were meant to be the blunt ones.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46He thought I did something and I didn't.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50Was it something to do with the Marie Shelby case?
0:36:51 > 0:36:53Jack resigned around that time...
0:36:53 > 0:36:55What did he tell you about that?
0:36:55 > 0:36:56Nothing.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04Marie Shelby was a prostitute.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Night she was killed, she was seen getting in a car.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Car belonged to Ross Parkwell. Nasty piece of work.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Parkwell says he didn't pick her up and he's got half a dozen people
0:37:13 > 0:37:16willing to testify that he was elsewhere.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20So as you can imagine, forensics were always going to be key.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23But Jack got it into his head that someone had infiltrated his lab
0:37:23 > 0:37:25and messed with the Shelby samples
0:37:25 > 0:37:28that he was going to process for DNA.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29Why would he think that?
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Something to do with his labelling system.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34Anyhow, the, er, samples were processed,
0:37:34 > 0:37:39and it turns out it wasn't Parkwell, but another equally horrid scumbag,
0:37:39 > 0:37:40name of Colin McKenzie.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42So why does he blame you?
0:37:42 > 0:37:45He started running through a list of people who he thought might have had
0:37:45 > 0:37:48access to his lab, and he decided that I was the most likely culprit.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51Even though you were having an affair?
0:37:52 > 0:37:55According to Jack, that was WHY we were having the affair.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00I was a bit upset about this, as you can imagine.
0:38:00 > 0:38:05Jack saw red, took his complaint upstairs. Big row, and he walked.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10Take it he didn't mention this when he came for the job interview?
0:38:12 > 0:38:16So we'd both be doing Jack a favour if we let that go.
0:38:19 > 0:38:22There. Six foot, wearing a hoodie.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23That's him.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26MAN BOLTS DOOR
0:38:29 > 0:38:32What... What did you do to her?
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Something to help her sleep.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39What, with this? Where did you get this?
0:38:39 > 0:38:40Roper...
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Do you know what this is? What it could do?
0:38:42 > 0:38:43Shut up!
0:38:43 > 0:38:46Two days and this is over. Now, go to work.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04When did you get these?
0:39:04 > 0:39:06Mate ran them off overnight.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11TTX? Tetrodotoxin?
0:39:11 > 0:39:13That's the toxin found in puffer fish, isn't it?
0:39:13 > 0:39:16Amongst other things. Aggressive sodium channel blocker.
0:39:16 > 0:39:17Acts as a powerful sedative.
0:39:17 > 0:39:21Depending on dose, we're talking respiratory problems, paralysis.
0:39:21 > 0:39:23And if you get a massive dose,
0:39:23 > 0:39:25you end up like our blonde from the basement.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28- Did you notice any swelling in her mouth, trachea?- No.
0:39:28 > 0:39:29Then she was probably injected.
0:39:29 > 0:39:33But where would you even get hold of a substance like that?
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Evil sushi chefs, research laboratories.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38I'll leave you to tell your new best friend.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41She thinks that she's identified the man from CCTV tapes.
0:39:41 > 0:39:42Good.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46And she told me about Marie Shelby.
0:39:48 > 0:39:49About your resignation.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Why didn't you mention it to Leo in interview?
0:39:53 > 0:39:54Didn't seem relevant.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57So it wasn't because your accusation was groundless?
0:39:57 > 0:39:59Someone switched samples, of that I'm sure.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02But why? What would motivate her to do something like that?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04Don't know for sure it was her.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06Well, you must have reason to suspect.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08I thought I did at the time but it was all cross-contaminated,
0:40:08 > 0:40:10the case, me and her, it was confusing.
0:40:10 > 0:40:14Why would someone switch samples in the first place?
0:40:14 > 0:40:17When he was arrested, there were rumours about Ross Parkwell,
0:40:17 > 0:40:19rumours that he was an informant for SOCA.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22And when my samples were switched, I took a look at who was headed
0:40:22 > 0:40:25to prison and who wasn't and it all got a bit "grassy knoll".
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Anyway, I don't want you getting involved in all that.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29It was a bad time.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31I was angry, probably wasn't thinking straight,
0:40:31 > 0:40:32and I shot my mouth off.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35If you think there was corruption, an innocent man went to prison...
0:40:35 > 0:40:39- Colin McKenzie's no innocent... - Of that particular crime.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44I didn't mention it at interview because I'm kind of embarrassed
0:40:44 > 0:40:46of the way I went about things, OK?
0:40:49 > 0:40:51Going to try isotope analysis on both victims.
0:40:51 > 0:40:53We'll need teeth and hair.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21The postman confirmed it. Our man from the 24-hour.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23He's the man who left the house.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31SHALLOW RESPIRATION FROM GAS MASK
0:41:58 > 0:42:02Yes, that's right, suspected tetrodotoxoid poisoning.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05I'm trying to find out which facilities have a licence to store it in this country.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Move. Please.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10Thanks.
0:42:10 > 0:42:11You went ahead with toxicology?
0:42:11 > 0:42:12I did.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15- And you think I'm going to pay for that?- I called in a favour.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17By the way, the blonde victim isn't British.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20- Analysis on the teeth... - I never authorised isotope...
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Will you please shut up about authorisations?
0:42:25 > 0:42:27If you're planning to carry on treating me like this,
0:42:27 > 0:42:30can you let me know, because I'm not sure I can deal with it.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34You think I wanted to end things with you?
0:42:34 > 0:42:36I was happy.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39I was really happy, until you mucked everything up.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41But you said what you said and that's fine.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44And if you still believe it, that's fine, too, but...
0:42:44 > 0:42:47you weren't the only one who came out of that situation with scars.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Great, thanks. Only 12 research labs
0:42:50 > 0:42:53are authorised to store category B substances in this country.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55One of them, Solomon McGuire,
0:42:55 > 0:42:58- is the only one in a 50-mile radius of the crime scene. - Let's get over there.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01Did I hear you say that the blonde victim wasn't British?
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Yeah, her isotopes suggest she was born in Serbia.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06And not just that, Clarissa analysed her hair.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08During the last three years, she's been moving frequently
0:43:08 > 0:43:11- between the UK and the Balkans. - People trafficking.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14All that coming and going, it doesn't sound like a trafficked girl to me.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17Nikki, text me the lab address. I'll pick you up in half an hour.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20- I'm going with you?- They might open up for one of their own. - Where are you going now?
0:43:20 > 0:43:23- Finding our man in the photo. - Actually, I was thinking...
0:43:23 > 0:43:26- The landlord, you're sure he didn't meet him?- That's what he said.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28Was the fact that the house had a basement
0:43:28 > 0:43:30- mentioned in the e-mail exchange between them?- No. Why?
0:43:30 > 0:43:32The basement isn't visible from the exterior.
0:43:32 > 0:43:36It wasn't in the advert. Whoever rented the house knew they needed a basement
0:43:36 > 0:43:40to keep the girls in. He must have been around the house.
0:43:40 > 0:43:41Thank you.
0:43:56 > 0:43:58DOOR LATCH CLICKS
0:44:09 > 0:44:12KOLAHI MUTTERS IN NATIVE LANGUAGE
0:44:12 > 0:44:15I showed three people around before Bairstow took it, yeah.
0:44:15 > 0:44:16How long before?
0:44:16 > 0:44:19Well, the house had only been advertised for five days.
0:44:19 > 0:44:22I think the last viewing was the day before Bairstow took it.
0:44:22 > 0:44:23- A man?- Yeah.
0:44:23 > 0:44:25Could it have been this man?
0:44:27 > 0:44:29It could have been, yeah.
0:44:29 > 0:44:31- And you showed him round the house yourself?- Yeah.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34Did you take him into the basement?
0:44:34 > 0:44:37Yeah, yeah, I did. But he didn't want the house.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39- And he told you that there and then? - No, he rang me later.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41He rang you?
0:44:41 > 0:44:43Mr Kolahi, do you have the phone he rang you on?
0:44:49 > 0:44:51FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING
0:44:53 > 0:44:54Yeah...
0:44:56 > 0:44:58Never gets easier, does it?
0:45:01 > 0:45:04So you saw the, er, petechial haemorrhage on the thymus gland?
0:45:04 > 0:45:07- I did, yes. - And the multiple fractures?
0:45:07 > 0:45:10Yes. Richard, look, I'm not at a stage yet where
0:45:10 > 0:45:14I feel comfortable pronouncing cause of death.
0:45:14 > 0:45:18Right, so what, you're still not convinced there's a narrative of abuse?
0:45:18 > 0:45:19Not yet, no.
0:45:21 > 0:45:25I want to carry out blood tests on Michael and his brother.
0:45:25 > 0:45:27Right. And what do you expect to find?
0:45:27 > 0:45:29I'm not expecting to find anything.
0:45:29 > 0:45:33I want to rule out Vitamin D deficiency as being contributory...
0:45:33 > 0:45:36- Rickets?- It's a black victim. Little if any exposure to sunlight.
0:45:36 > 0:45:38- You seen a rachitic rosary on the costal cartilages?- Oh, come on,
0:45:38 > 0:45:41- you know as well as I do that not all rickets sufferers...- Leo.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43Leo.
0:45:43 > 0:45:45Why are you doing this?
0:45:45 > 0:45:48What, because you believe in the innocence of the mother?
0:45:48 > 0:45:50Because you believe in the father's story?
0:45:50 > 0:45:52What I believe is irrelevant.
0:45:52 > 0:45:55You once told me that our real work doesn't start
0:45:55 > 0:45:59till we lay down the scalpel. But I haven't finished my work yet.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01And when I do, if I conclude that his injuries were a result
0:46:01 > 0:46:04of abuse, then I will say so.
0:46:06 > 0:46:08Fine.
0:46:08 > 0:46:09Fine.
0:46:10 > 0:46:12All in your own good time.
0:46:16 > 0:46:20Be careful where you lay your trust, Leo. Abusers lie.
0:46:20 > 0:46:22They lie all the time and they are very good at it.
0:46:32 > 0:46:36Tell the Chief Super it's urgent. I need number-trace authority today.
0:46:39 > 0:46:41Piers Christie, Executive Director.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44- DI Reed.- Dr Alexander.
0:46:44 > 0:46:45Please.
0:46:46 > 0:46:50Solomon McGuire are primarily concerned with defence research.
0:46:50 > 0:46:52Vaccines, antitoxins and such like.
0:46:52 > 0:46:56- Which is why you keep tetrodotoxin on site?- Do we?
0:46:57 > 0:47:01Sorry, we're not actually supposed to divulge.
0:47:01 > 0:47:03Can I ask exactly what this is about?
0:47:03 > 0:47:06I'm investigating the death of a young pregnant woman,
0:47:06 > 0:47:10killed with an overdose of this TTX substance.
0:47:10 > 0:47:12KNOCK ON DOOR
0:47:12 > 0:47:13Lucas. Thanks for coming.
0:47:15 > 0:47:19Um, Dr Lucas Ballinger, DI Reed and Dr Alexander.
0:47:19 > 0:47:24- IN DISTANCE:- As well as being a superb biochemist, Lucas also has responsibility for maintaining
0:47:24 > 0:47:27an inventory of all substances kept on site.
0:47:27 > 0:47:31In the unlikely event of a theft, Lucas will know.

0:48:12 > 0:48:14- Dr Ballinger?- I'm sorry?
0:48:14 > 0:48:15I'm afraid that...
0:48:15 > 0:48:18You're not at liberty to say. Yes, I know.
0:48:18 > 0:48:21- But access must be controlled, isn't it?- Morning, Mr Roper.
0:48:21 > 0:48:24It's subject to lower security protocols than other substances.
0:48:24 > 0:48:27But security is high and reserves are closely monitored.
0:48:27 > 0:48:29Just to the right here.
0:48:34 > 0:48:36There we go.
0:48:36 > 0:48:38Well done. You've been a very brave boy.
0:48:38 > 0:48:41I'll make sure that Daddy knows how good you've been.
0:48:41 > 0:48:45- Just put your finger on there, would you?- Daddy wasn't there.
0:48:45 > 0:48:47- Daddy wasn't where?- In the flat.
0:48:49 > 0:48:50When?
0:48:50 > 0:48:53When Michael got sick, Daddy wasn't there.
0:48:56 > 0:48:58Is that what Daddy told you to say?
0:49:04 > 0:49:08Try cross-referencing against the supply database.
0:49:08 > 0:49:11Er, I have 1-9 as the TTX.
0:49:11 > 0:49:13Yeah. It's the same discrepancy.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18How long does it take to get a bloody trace on a phone number?
0:49:20 > 0:49:23Ah, sod this.
0:49:23 > 0:49:25- What are you doing?- I'll call him.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28Are you sure?
0:49:28 > 0:49:32PHONE RINGING
0:49:36 > 0:49:39This is Ballinger's, right? PHONE CONTINUES RINGING
0:49:41 > 0:49:42It's my number.
0:49:44 > 0:49:48The man who looked round the house gave Kolahi Ballinger's number.
0:49:48 > 0:49:51- But he's not the man from the CCTV. - Course he's not, look at him.
0:49:51 > 0:49:54He'd need someone to do the heavy lifting.
0:49:59 > 0:50:04According to the inventory, there are three vials of TTX unaccounted for.
0:50:04 > 0:50:06I'll talk to the antitoxin development team.
0:50:06 > 0:50:10In all likelihood, this is just...human error.
0:50:10 > 0:50:13- I'm sure it is.- Lucas, maybe you could get straight onto that?
0:50:13 > 0:50:15Um, has someone died?
0:50:16 > 0:50:19- I'm sorry?- Um, has someone died?
0:50:21 > 0:50:24Well, I'm afraid it's a bit like your business -
0:50:24 > 0:50:27sometimes there are things we can't tell you.
0:50:36 > 0:50:39Why are you leaving? You saw the state he was in.
0:50:39 > 0:50:41And they're missing three vials of TTX.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44Yes. And the phone ties Ballinger in. Do we pounce? No.
0:50:44 > 0:50:47Because we know there are at least two men involved in this.
0:50:47 > 0:50:49Let's see if he'll lead us to the other.
0:50:58 > 0:51:00MOCKING: Mama, mama.

0:51:28 > 0:51:31You know the man who was initially accused of killing Marie Shelby?
0:51:33 > 0:51:35Did you know that he faced a rape charge three years earlier,
0:51:35 > 0:51:37in Glasgow?
0:51:37 > 0:51:41Trial fell through. Forensics lost the swabs from the rape victim.
0:51:41 > 0:51:44I mean, don't you think it's strange that one man could be lifted
0:51:44 > 0:51:47from suspicion twice by forensic cock-ups?
0:51:47 > 0:51:50I don't know about Glasgow, but we didn't cock up in Bradford.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53We put a man away for the murder of Marie Shelby.
0:51:53 > 0:51:54He's still there, I'm happy to say.
0:51:54 > 0:51:58- But Jack could've been right? - You, Jack, you're all the same -
0:51:58 > 0:51:59playing on the edges of law enforcement,
0:51:59 > 0:52:03like kids in a bloody sandpit. What do you know, hmm?
0:52:03 > 0:52:05What exactly do you know?

0:57:34 > 0:57:37I'm withdrawing my postmortem report and foregoing further investigation.
0:57:37 > 0:57:39- No, listen, you can't. - Don't open that.
