0:02:01 > 0:02:04They fitted him up.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08And three years later, they're still fitting him up.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39Not this one.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42That's not what I'm saying about Clive Reader.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Aargh!

0:02:53 > 0:02:58'So, now I'm gonna sing Police On My Back!'

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Keep an eye.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16# ..I've been hiding Police on my back... #

0:03:16 > 0:03:18LAUGHTER

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Welcome to your party. My God.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24# ..Well, he won't come back I've been running Monday... #

0:03:24 > 0:03:26It's a very late return and it's big,

0:03:26 > 0:03:29so it's going to take someone with guts and balls.

0:03:29 > 0:03:30Four months in Manchester,

0:03:30 > 0:03:34- prosecuting all the men who make horse-racing corrupt.- Great.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36Pre-trial hearing on Tuesday.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Great.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42# What have I done?

0:03:43 > 0:03:45# What have I done?

0:03:47 > 0:03:49# What have I done?

0:03:49 > 0:03:52# I've been running down the railway track

0:03:52 > 0:03:55# Could you help me? Police on my back

0:03:55 > 0:03:58# They will catch me if I dare drop back... #

0:03:58 > 0:04:01They lied, the police. They lied and lied and lied.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05Now, look. Forget the law, forget evidence. Sometimes you just know.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07Johnny Foster is innocent.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10- I think you're a bit... - What? What?- Emotional?

0:04:12 > 0:04:14You're right, I am emotional.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16And...and why is that? Because I'm a woman, do you think?

0:04:16 > 0:04:18No, I didn't say that.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22An innocent man is serving a life sentence for something he didn't do!

0:04:22 > 0:04:25You know, standing up and bowing matters when we leave court,

0:04:25 > 0:04:27not because of the tradition or anyone's status,

0:04:27 > 0:04:29but because it shows that we all move on.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33Move on? There's just been a miscarriage of justice. Move on?

0:04:33 > 0:04:37I think you're a fearless advocate, and fearlessness goes a long way,

0:04:37 > 0:04:39but it's not the whole story.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Good night, Miss Costello.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Mr Reader.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52What the hell did that mean?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Oh, forget about it. It's a party.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Well, I want dancing.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Where's the dancing?

0:05:24 > 0:05:26I love her when she loses.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29I love her when she dances.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32She's so very, very bad at both.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35You should just tell her, sir.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40# ..But emotions won't grow

0:05:40 > 0:05:42# And we're changing our ways... #

0:05:42 > 0:05:43I love you.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47# ..Taking different roads... #

0:07:48 > 0:07:51I meant...

0:07:51 > 0:07:52well...

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Hm. It works,

0:07:56 > 0:07:58the cancer stops spreading,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00and then it doesn't work.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Six months, three years... every case is different.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13How much less of a man will I be?

0:08:14 > 0:08:17Up a couple of bra sizes.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Throw away the electric razor.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23No more Mr Big Boy in the morning.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Do you cry easily?

0:08:26 > 0:08:29- No.- You do now.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56'I knew that, er... Clive Reader was exceptional

0:08:56 > 0:09:00'when I...I saw him cross-examine a very senior police officer...'

0:09:00 > 0:09:04- You OK?- You go. Your moment.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07'...courtroom door, completely unaware,

0:09:07 > 0:09:10'with his trousers around his ankles,

0:09:10 > 0:09:13'who was being exposed as a liar and a fraud.'

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Ladies and gentlemen,

0:09:15 > 0:09:18Mr Clive "hold on to your trousers" Reader QC.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20APPLAUSE

0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Billy?- It's your son, sir. David. He's been arrested.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40- What? For what? - Killing a police officer.

0:09:40 > 0:09:41What?

0:09:43 > 0:09:44How much do we know?

0:09:44 > 0:09:47Er...800 demonstrators kettled into a narrow street,

0:09:47 > 0:09:50way too small for that kind of number. People want out.

0:09:50 > 0:09:51The police squeeze them tighter.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53- Go on.- A team of six coppers go in.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55- Why?- Don't know.- And then?

0:09:55 > 0:10:00They're saying that one demonstra... They're saying he goes berserk, sir.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04Pushes one of the coppers, two hands, hard, in the chest.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06- But David wouldn't... - That's what they're saying.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09PC Webster cracked his head on the bottom of a lamp post.

0:10:09 > 0:10:13Bleed inside the skull, pressure on the brain, dies two hours later.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17Clive, I'm...I'm sorry about all this, at your silk party.

0:10:17 > 0:10:18Come on.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24- Get them there as quick as you can. - Who do you want, sir?

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Stand up, please.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46OFFICER MUTTERS

0:10:54 > 0:10:56This is personal, isn't it?

0:10:56 > 0:10:59One of ours. One of yours.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Which makes it so important

0:11:01 > 0:11:04that we all remain completely professional.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06You the mum?

0:11:15 > 0:11:16CELL DOOR OPENS

0:11:32 > 0:11:35A barrister in a police station.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40Isn't that against your rules?

0:11:40 > 0:11:43A teenage boy in a cell for the first time in his life.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47I mean, does he need me? Or does he need a lawyer at all?

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Because, I mean, you'll look after him, won't you?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52And then it won't cost anything.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Anyway, who cares about barristers and criminals?

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Unless of course it's you or your son.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01But then it never is, is it?

0:12:01 > 0:12:04His mum's dead, by the way.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15David, just tell me.

0:12:16 > 0:12:17Because...

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Just tell me now so I know.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26- Did you...?- Don't.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30No.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33OK. Sorry.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Well, what...what do you want me to do?

0:12:38 > 0:12:39Go away.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Will you speak to Martha?

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Six of them.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Riot gear.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03Coming for you?

0:13:10 > 0:13:12Did you think they were going to hurt you?

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Can you say it for me, David?- Yes.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24So...

0:13:24 > 0:13:26self-defence.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Two hands up to defend yourself.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Do you want to see your dad again?

0:13:40 > 0:13:42He's here for you, David.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45We all are.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10NO SOUND

0:14:12 > 0:14:13Help!

0:14:14 > 0:14:16Dad!

0:14:16 > 0:14:19NO SOUND

0:14:25 > 0:14:28- There you go.- Thank you.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

0:14:31 > 0:14:33KEYBOARD BEEPS

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Huh. Don't Look Now.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38- What?- Schindler's List.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Children in red.

0:14:42 > 0:14:44So, what's he saying?

0:14:44 > 0:14:47He was attacked by six men. He defended himself.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50The six men happened to be police officers.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52Why? Why would they do that?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54CCTV? That'll tell us.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57There isn't any, not in the kettle.

0:14:57 > 0:15:00They set it up where there was no CCTV.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Little bit convenient, don't you think?

0:15:02 > 0:15:06You and the Old Bill toe to toe at the Bailey.

0:15:06 > 0:15:07You should sell tickets.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11Your bail app, miss.

0:15:11 > 0:15:13Who's prosecuting?

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Oh, Hugo Milson.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25What's he like - Milson?

0:15:27 > 0:15:31Like a sherbet lemon suppository. Acid, sharp, surprising.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34There's a prosecution witness, one of the demonstrators.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37- Right. From?- Peckham.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40- What kind of Peckham? - Peckham Peckham.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42So, not naturally pro-police, then?

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Yeah. Thanks, Clive.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48You'll get bullied.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50What?

0:15:50 > 0:15:52In Manchester, with your funny accent.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55You mean you'll miss me.

0:16:03 > 0:16:04Will I get bail?

0:16:06 > 0:16:08It won't be easy in there, David.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11The police witnesses are all saying the same thing

0:16:11 > 0:16:13about the death of their colleague -

0:16:13 > 0:16:15that you went berserk.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17I was taking pictures of them. They don't like that.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20They came for the camera.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25And it was obvious they'd use physical force to get it.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30What about the boy from Peckham?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Darren Goodchild. - He's in it too.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35In it?

0:16:38 > 0:16:41Your friends were on the march too, weren't they?

0:16:41 > 0:16:42So, they'll be, er...

0:16:42 > 0:16:45they will be able to be witnesses for us.

0:16:48 > 0:16:52- David?- Leave me alone.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Please get me bail.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05It was obvious they'd use physical force? You're coaching him.

0:17:05 > 0:17:06Confirming instructions.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Confirming what you've decided he should say.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12- Coaching, and feeding his paranoia. - Why are you being like this?

0:17:12 > 0:17:14We win cases by seeing what the other side sees,

0:17:14 > 0:17:17not by putting blinkers on and getting angry with the police.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Are you telling me how to do my job, Clive?

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Why did Johnny Foster lose in the Court of Appeal?

0:17:27 > 0:17:30Eight straight hours, stood there in the freezing rain.

0:17:30 > 0:17:34No lavatory, no food, no choice. Can you imagine?

0:17:35 > 0:17:39I suppose, to be fair, it was the same for the demonstrators.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Very funny.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Here to hold your hand?

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Are you objecting to bail?

0:17:46 > 0:17:4918 years old. No form.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Poor David Cowdrey,

0:17:51 > 0:17:55all alone in a big scary place with big scary criminals.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58Worth remembering John Webster's daughter,

0:17:58 > 0:18:02who's been telling her teacher that she wants to go to heaven

0:18:02 > 0:18:04to be with her daddy.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06She's five years old.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08I bet you don't even know her name.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11I'm objecting to bail.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Dogs, horses and the TSG

0:18:16 > 0:18:21preventing people from exercising their democratic right to protest.

0:18:21 > 0:18:23Er, not sure if this is a...

0:18:23 > 0:18:26a jury speech or a plea in mitigation,

0:18:26 > 0:18:28but unless we've all been transported to South Africa,

0:18:28 > 0:18:31it certainly doesn't sound like a bail application.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Interesting, though,

0:18:33 > 0:18:36that my learned friend says her client was stressed and angry.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38All the more likely, one might think,

0:18:38 > 0:18:40to act in the shockingly violent manner

0:18:40 > 0:18:42we say brought about the death of this police officer.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46That's all based on supposition and speculation.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48And, um...confession.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55"I had to do it.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58"I'm sorry."

0:18:58 > 0:19:00"Did you mean to hurt him? Yes."

0:19:02 > 0:19:04It still fits with self-defence.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08If you're defending yourself, sometimes you hurt your attacker.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10"I had to do it." No choice. Imperative.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12It fits a lot better with guilty.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15Look, Milson got under your skin, and you didn't perform.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18You know why else you didn't perform? David's not talking to you.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Why not? You're asking none of the hard questions.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22- You're being his mother. - He needs help, not bullying.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Asking none of the hard questions

0:19:24 > 0:19:26means you'll be sending him naked into the witness box.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Milson will tear him apart.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31CLIVE SIGHS, BUZZER SOUNDS

0:19:42 > 0:19:44She, um...

0:19:44 > 0:19:46seemed a bit fragile -

0:19:46 > 0:19:48blondie.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Piss off, Milson.- Or what?

0:19:50 > 0:19:54You'll send your stone-age clerk round to beat me up?

0:20:12 > 0:20:14What happened to the camera, David?

0:20:15 > 0:20:16They took it.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18- Who did?- I'm not sure.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Maybe an EG.- Evidence gatherer.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Let's go, son.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Come on, let's go.

0:20:32 > 0:20:33Go on, David.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Come on.- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39What's that on your arm? What's happened to your ar...

0:20:39 > 0:20:42Is that a cigarette burn? It is... Leave him alone!

0:20:42 > 0:20:45- Let's go!- David, who did that to you? David?- Let's go.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49ALARM BLARES

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Oh, whoa, whoa! Take it easy! - Leave me alone! Leave me alone!

0:21:18 > 0:21:21- Get me out of Manchester. - That's not possible.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24- I need to be here for David. - He has Martha Costello.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26- Billy would try and... - Billy would lie.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28The CPS would know he was lying and they'd stop briefing us.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30That's what Billy would do.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32- That's what I'm not doing. - David's going down.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34There's too much love and not enough lawyering.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38- Get me the CPS. - No, put the phone down, John.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41- What did you do before this job? - Eight years at Amnesty.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44What next? A fighter pilot? Neurosurgeon?

0:21:44 > 0:21:47- What?- I've always been here.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Shoe Lane is all of my life.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52- I took my first breath here... - PHONE RINGS

0:21:52 > 0:21:54..and I will take my last.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58David Cowdrey is my godson,

0:21:58 > 0:22:01and if Clive Reader wants to stay here because his gut tells him...

0:22:01 > 0:22:05But you wouldn't get that, would you? This is family!

0:22:05 > 0:22:07The Corleone family, maybe.

0:22:07 > 0:22:09Oh, yeah, you're using this.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12Yeah, this is you making your move.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15I was brought in as practice manager to clean this place up,

0:22:15 > 0:22:17and that's what I'm doing.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19And I will not take lectures in chambers politics

0:22:19 > 0:22:23from a man who took £50,000 in backhanders from Mickey Joy,

0:22:23 > 0:22:26- the most corrupt solicitor of all time.- I did that for chambers.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30- None of that money... - Are you deaf?

0:22:30 > 0:22:32You are this close to extinction.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35I'm the only reason that you're allowed to carry on existing,

0:22:35 > 0:22:37so get used to me, Billy.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41Evolve. You'll be swimming with the dodos.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47It's up to you.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53Do you want a career prosecuting everything that matters,

0:22:53 > 0:22:56or the odd bone tossed your way by a clerk running Shoe Lane

0:22:56 > 0:22:59- on booze and bullshit?- Billy's... - Billy does defence.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01It's all he knows.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04He believes he's got the angels on his side,

0:23:04 > 0:23:07defending the dispossessed and the disempowered.

0:23:07 > 0:23:12And the bottom line? Very soon, there'll be no defence work left.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16- Shoe Lane has to redefine itself. - Which means prosecuting.

0:23:16 > 0:23:21I've got Nicola at the CPS all set to make you her main man,

0:23:21 > 0:23:23send your career into prosecuting heaven.

0:23:23 > 0:23:24HE SIGHS

0:23:24 > 0:23:28But let her down here, and she will move on.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31Defining moment, Clive.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34Old life...

0:23:34 > 0:23:35or new?

0:23:37 > 0:23:40Billy? When we saw David on the monitor in the police station,

0:23:40 > 0:23:43did he have a burn mark on his arm?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Think.- No. - We would have seen it.- Yeah.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50So, it must have happened at the police station

0:23:50 > 0:23:52before this so-called confession.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55- So, why hasn't he told you about it?- Too much prosecuting, Clive.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58You've forgotten what it's like to be a frightened human being.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02- How is he?- Asking for you.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05- Well, I can't get a visitor's order.- Why?

0:24:06 > 0:24:07Because David won't ask for one.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Probably it's too upsetting for him to see you.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17A list of David's friends who were on the march.

0:24:17 > 0:24:22Now, which one of them would do best under pressure at the Bailey?

0:24:23 > 0:24:24What about Ruby?

0:24:26 > 0:24:27His girlfriend.

0:24:28 > 0:24:31You didn't know?

0:24:31 > 0:24:34See, that's the thing about boarding schools.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37I mean, it's not like Tom Brown's School Days any more,

0:24:37 > 0:24:40but you're still sending your child to a place where nobody loves them,

0:24:40 > 0:24:46and the biggest lesson they learn is how to do without parents.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Prosecute me.

0:24:55 > 0:24:59Every night in chambers during the trial, be Hugo Milson.

0:24:59 > 0:25:00No holds barred.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04I can't really do that from Manchester.

0:25:07 > 0:25:08Line one, sir.

0:25:12 > 0:25:13Hello?

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Love to. Yeah, see you then.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27Penny for your thoughts.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34Mo Farah, London 2012.

0:25:34 > 0:25:36Steve Cram's commentary.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39Oh, yeah.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42BACKGROUND CHATTER

0:25:42 > 0:25:46"Kelly Holmes, you are the double Olympic champion."

0:25:46 > 0:25:48What?

0:25:48 > 0:25:50The other one that always gets me.

0:25:50 > 0:25:51Olga Korbut, David Wilkie.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53I don't go that far back.

0:25:53 > 0:25:55- HE CHUCKLES - Nor did I.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Are you all right, Billy?

0:26:02 > 0:26:03Yeah.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09No.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13What is it?

0:26:23 > 0:26:25You have to win this for us.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32There has to be a very good reason.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34- Yes.- So, what is it?

0:26:38 > 0:26:42I can't go because I have to be here for Alan and his son.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45I think David Cowdrey will go to prison for life

0:26:45 > 0:26:48if I'm not here to stop it from happening.

0:26:50 > 0:26:51I respect that.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Enough to brief you next time.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02I'm all yours. Manchester, I'm not going.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05It's a big trial you're returning.

0:27:05 > 0:27:07Your first in silk.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09Priorities.

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Evidence gatherers mixing in with marchers.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18He had a right to be paranoid.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23EG. And this is before the kettle.

0:27:24 > 0:27:28This is a boy who takes on six police officers.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31And how does he look to you, Clive? Aggressive?

0:27:31 > 0:27:32Violent?

0:27:32 > 0:27:34He's a vulnerable child.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37What the jury will want is to hear from people who were

0:27:37 > 0:27:40actually there when it happened. That's what matters.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42How many witnesses have you got?

0:27:42 > 0:27:44They're slow in coming forward.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Well, why? Some of them are his friends.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49Surely they'd stand up for him if they could.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53What? You want me to stop now?

0:27:53 > 0:27:56You think Milson won't do this to you?

0:27:56 > 0:27:59At the moment, the only civilian witness

0:27:59 > 0:28:02is Darren from Peckham, and he's for the prosecution.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05Let's try his girlfriend, then.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Tell me about David on the march, Ruby.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10He took photographs.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14Anything the police did, he'd grab a picture.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16Were the police aware of what he was doing?

0:28:16 > 0:28:20Of course. They hate the camera being turned around.

0:28:20 > 0:28:21And then the kettle...

0:28:23 > 0:28:25I didn't see what happened.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28- None of it? - We had an argument just before.

0:28:28 > 0:28:32David wanted to talk to the police about being allowed out.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35I said that was giving them what they wanted.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38And was he taking pictures in the kettle?

0:28:40 > 0:28:43How was he in the kettle, Ruby?

0:28:47 > 0:28:50According to you, the six police come in like it's Apocalypse Now,

0:28:50 > 0:28:52and Ruby sees nothing.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58This is what you asked me to do!

0:29:01 > 0:29:04- You all right?- Of course.

0:29:04 > 0:29:06Do you want a hug?

0:29:06 > 0:29:07Yes, please.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Mm.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16- Snog?- Get off! HE LAUGHS

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Hm. It's like the early days.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27You two up half the night with a bottle of Scotch.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Couple of street robberies that I'd killed myself to clerk you into.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32Remember?

0:29:32 > 0:29:35Higher stakes tomorrow, Billy. If only it was just a robbery.

0:29:35 > 0:29:36What's that?

0:29:36 > 0:29:39Copies of police notebooks.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41Hm, that's interesting.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43There's no record in here

0:29:43 > 0:29:45of why the six coppers went in. Nothing.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48Not even from the bronze commander.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50So, why do you think...?

0:29:50 > 0:29:54They spotted a boy in red taking all the embarrassing photographs.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56"Come on, boys, let's get him."

0:29:56 > 0:29:59And that's why there's no record in the notebook.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02Night, miss.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06Night, sir.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14They spotted me in the kettle.

0:30:14 > 0:30:17Taking pictures?

0:30:17 > 0:30:18Who?

0:30:18 > 0:30:21"The boy in red. The boy in red needs to be taken out."

0:30:21 > 0:30:24OK. Listen to me.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27There were no evidence gatherers in the kettle. If you make things up,

0:30:27 > 0:30:29a prosecutor this good will be on it, and it'll finish us.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31They pretended to be us.

0:30:31 > 0:30:33They?

0:30:34 > 0:30:35Undercover officers. CELL DOOR SLAMS

0:30:37 > 0:30:39- Where's Dad?- In chambers.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41- Do you want us to call him?- No.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44- David...- No.

0:30:52 > 0:30:56We were in the middle of the kettle when the man in red came at us.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58He went berserk, basically.

0:30:58 > 0:31:01- "Came at us?"- Running.

0:31:01 > 0:31:06And then a two-handed big shove into PC Webster's chest.

0:31:06 > 0:31:09He fell backwards and cracked the back of his head on a lamp post.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12WOMAN COUGHS

0:31:13 > 0:31:19So, after six hours of kettling 800 people,

0:31:19 > 0:31:22you decided to, er...press them?

0:31:22 > 0:31:25Pressing the space makes people stand closer to each other,

0:31:25 > 0:31:27which keeps them safer.

0:31:27 > 0:31:31I haven't seen copies of any of the police notebooks.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33So, could I just...

0:31:33 > 0:31:35FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:31:38 > 0:31:40WOMAN COUGHS

0:31:42 > 0:31:43Thank you.

0:31:47 > 0:31:51There's no record in here of why you went in,

0:31:51 > 0:31:54and who the information came from,

0:31:54 > 0:31:57- but then there wouldn't be. - Well, exactly.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00That record will be with your bronze.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08CLOCK CHIMES OUTSIDE

0:32:12 > 0:32:14Not at the Bailey?

0:32:14 > 0:32:16He doesn't want me there.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22When I was 18, I was in love,

0:32:22 > 0:32:25overwhelmingly, furiously in love

0:32:25 > 0:32:27with a man who was 30-something, married

0:32:27 > 0:32:30and, like I was then, Catholic.

0:32:30 > 0:32:34I got pregnant, had a late abortion,

0:32:34 > 0:32:36and there was a problem.

0:32:36 > 0:32:4123rd of January 1979, I gave up my God,

0:32:41 > 0:32:43motherhood,

0:32:43 > 0:32:45and the love of my life

0:32:45 > 0:32:46in a day.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53I wish I could do it again.

0:32:54 > 0:32:57I wish I had the chance you've still got with your son.

0:33:00 > 0:33:03No, I don't think PC Webster saw him.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07I think he felt him coming towards him and just had time to turn...

0:33:08 > 0:33:11..before...

0:33:11 > 0:33:13HE SIGHS

0:33:14 > 0:33:16I know this is hard for you.

0:33:18 > 0:33:19I heard the sound.

0:33:21 > 0:33:22His head on the...

0:33:24 > 0:33:26I knew it wasn't good.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32Sorry. I'm sorry.

0:33:32 > 0:33:36- JUDGE:- This might be the moment to adjourn for the day.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40No conferring with fellow witnesses.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48Will you leave us alone? Nobody comes in here until I say!

0:33:55 > 0:33:57Lick the bowl.

0:33:59 > 0:34:00What?

0:34:02 > 0:34:05The toilet bowl in my cell at the...the police station.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07Lick the bowl or else...

0:34:08 > 0:34:10Who said it?

0:34:11 > 0:34:16Was it the person who burnt your arm? Is that how they got your confession?

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Or else what?

0:34:20 > 0:34:22What was the threat, David?

0:34:30 > 0:34:31How's fraud?

0:34:31 > 0:34:35Well, I failed my maths O level twice, and that was 30 years ago,

0:34:35 > 0:34:37so I'm rusty.

0:34:38 > 0:34:39There.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48Someone at the cell door?

0:34:48 > 0:34:50Who?

0:34:50 > 0:34:52- Custody record?- Er...

0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Time?- 23.30.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00- 30 years ago? - I got a D in the summer,

0:35:00 > 0:35:03cos I cheated off the genius boy next to me.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06Ray Kelly, sensationally handsome, very accommodating.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09Went on to be a top urologist and my fifth favourite boyfriend.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11MARTHA CHUCKLES

0:35:11 > 0:35:14- You were 16?- Mm-hm.

0:35:14 > 0:35:18So, 30 years later, that makes you 46 now.

0:35:18 > 0:35:19Oh, look.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22Police custody sergeant does a cell check every 30 minutes

0:35:22 > 0:35:25through the night, but no record of one at 11.30,

0:35:25 > 0:35:28which is when David is talking to whoever it is at the cell door.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30Interesting.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33Leave me alone.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36- What?- Read his lips.

0:35:40 > 0:35:42Bingo.

0:35:42 > 0:35:43Who's bullying him?

0:36:05 > 0:36:07Miss?

0:36:11 > 0:36:14The two police witnesses.

0:36:14 > 0:36:17- My God. When was this taken? - Two minutes ago.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20- Now we're in this trial. - Go get 'em, miss.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24You stay with the police station. I'll look at the boy from Peckham.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29John. Oh, John! 15 copies, please.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31One each for the jury, one for the judge, one for Miss Costello

0:36:31 > 0:36:34and one for the lemon sherbet.

0:36:34 > 0:36:37Third day lucky for Jakey boy.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Good old-fashioned clerking, that.

0:36:39 > 0:36:43Would Mrs Squeaky Knickers have got us a game changer like this? No.

0:36:43 > 0:36:47Do practice managers go anywhere near the coalface? I don't think so.

0:36:47 > 0:36:50Thank God for hot-desking.

0:36:52 > 0:36:55Ah, now, I need you to go through everyone in that police station.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57Pin down where they were at 11.30.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Get hold of the night duty roster, front desk officer.

0:36:59 > 0:37:02- Oh, you know what to do. - The thing about throwing mud, Marth,

0:37:02 > 0:37:04is you have to have your own story to back it up,

0:37:04 > 0:37:07- otherwise it just looks like you're throwing mud.- Do the work, Clive.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09I hate you too.

0:37:10 > 0:37:15What was the last thing His Lordship said to you last night?

0:37:15 > 0:37:17Not to talk to anyone about the case.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20Because a witness, halfway through his evidence,

0:37:20 > 0:37:22talking to another witness, who's just finished his...

0:37:24 > 0:37:25..Breaks all the rules.

0:37:27 > 0:37:32At 7.55pm last night,

0:37:32 > 0:37:36did you and PC Lewis go to an address,

0:37:36 > 0:37:4111 Raveley Street, Kentish Town?

0:37:48 > 0:37:52I must warn you that perverting the course of justice

0:37:52 > 0:37:53is a very serious offence,

0:37:53 > 0:37:56and you should be extremely careful

0:37:56 > 0:37:59about saying anything now that might incriminate you.

0:38:01 > 0:38:05I think we've said enough, haven't we, PC Butcher?

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Who lives at 11 Raveley Street?

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Mary.

0:38:22 > 0:38:23Mary?

0:38:25 > 0:38:26Webster.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28John's wife.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32She's too upset to come to court,

0:38:32 > 0:38:34so we promised we'd visit her

0:38:34 > 0:38:36at the end of every day during the trial.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44You'd better put your case to the witness, Miss Costello.

0:38:52 > 0:38:59I suggest that you identified David Cowdrey earlier in the march.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03He took your picture, and others, which you didn't like,

0:39:03 > 0:39:06because it showed you being violent and nasty.

0:39:07 > 0:39:12You marked him out, the boy in red,

0:39:12 > 0:39:15and when he was kettled, you targeted him

0:39:15 > 0:39:19and you went in to take him out with mob-like aggression.

0:39:19 > 0:39:20OK, so where's the camera?

0:39:20 > 0:39:24You've either destroyed it or hidden it.

0:39:24 > 0:39:28That's a hell of a conspiracy theory, isn't it?

0:39:28 > 0:39:33PC Lewis told us that pressing the kettle makes it safer

0:39:33 > 0:39:36for the demonstrators.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Yeah, if they're packed tightly, they're more calm.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40They don't climb up on things.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43They're like sardines.

0:39:44 > 0:39:45Yeah, you could say that.

0:39:45 > 0:39:52Lewis says David Cowdrey came at Webster fast. He ran at him.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54The word he used...

0:39:54 > 0:39:56was "berserk".

0:39:59 > 0:40:02Well, can sardines run, Officer?

0:40:02 > 0:40:07Can tightly packed fish go berserk?

0:40:11 > 0:40:13Or was PC Lewis mistaken?

0:40:13 > 0:40:17- No, he's not mistaken. - Then he must be lying.

0:40:17 > 0:40:22And you're agreeing with him, so that makes it a conspiracy to lie.

0:40:24 > 0:40:27DISTANT SIREN WAILS

0:40:31 > 0:40:34Miss Costello? Two minutes.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40I've eliminated everyone who was at the police station that night

0:40:40 > 0:40:43at 11.30. No-one had a go at David through his cell door.

0:40:43 > 0:40:45There has to be someone.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Well, there isn't, however much you want there to be.

0:41:00 > 0:41:04She needs to be completely focused, so don't tell her.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06Don't tell her what?

0:41:08 > 0:41:09Billy?

0:41:10 > 0:41:13Johnny Foster killed himself last night.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16- WOMAN:- 'Will Miss Costello of counsel

0:41:16 > 0:41:19'please come to court one immediately.'

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Inspector Wright's next up.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23Don't lose it in there, Martha.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27I'm the bronze, so I'm on the ground,

0:41:27 > 0:41:29but I'm a step back from things,

0:41:29 > 0:41:33so I have an...an overall picture of everything that's going on.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37David Cowdrey saw a man mumbling into his collar.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40Was that man talking to you?

0:41:40 > 0:41:42I can't comment on that.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45Is he making it up?

0:41:45 > 0:41:46I can't comment.

0:41:46 > 0:41:51David Cowdrey took pictures of the man mumbling into his collar.

0:41:51 > 0:41:55That's why he became a target of your snatch team.

0:41:55 > 0:41:58- HE SNORTS - Snatch team? Pure fiction.

0:41:58 > 0:42:01The product of too many years at the criminal bar,

0:42:01 > 0:42:02bashing the police.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05Sorry, I think you're getting confused, Officer.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07I'm only working on instructions.

0:42:07 > 0:42:11It's, er...it's not me who said you did this. It's my client.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14This is professional,

0:42:14 > 0:42:16not personal, Inspector Wright.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Are you staring at me?

0:42:22 > 0:42:24I'm waiting for a question.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32If you're the bronze,

0:42:32 > 0:42:37then maybe you can tell me why the team of six officers went in?

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Yes.

0:42:41 > 0:42:44And is that record in your notebook?

0:42:45 > 0:42:47HE SIGHS

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Thank you.

0:42:57 > 0:43:02Now, these notes are signed and dated by you,

0:43:02 > 0:43:06having been written up at the earliest possible opportunity?

0:43:06 > 0:43:08Late that same night.

0:43:08 > 0:43:13So, will you just read the, er... last three lines for me, please?

0:43:18 > 0:43:21"I received information from members of the public

0:43:21 > 0:43:24"that there was a disturbance inside the kettle.

0:43:24 > 0:43:27"In order to preserve the safety of those in the kettle,

0:43:27 > 0:43:30"I sent in a team of officers to deal with it."

0:43:30 > 0:43:35Thank you. Now, this is a copy of your notebook.

0:43:35 > 0:43:38And I asked it to be sent to me just before the trial started,

0:43:38 > 0:43:40so they should be - this copy and your notebook -

0:43:40 > 0:43:43- should be identical.- Yes.

0:43:43 > 0:43:46Only they're not. There's something not there.

0:43:46 > 0:43:48Can you tell me what's missing in the copy?

0:43:51 > 0:43:53- The last bit. - The last three lines.

0:43:53 > 0:43:56The bit about the disturbance.

0:43:57 > 0:43:59What are you saying?

0:43:59 > 0:44:03That you've added these lines, and...and I bet you did it

0:44:03 > 0:44:07during the trial, once you heard what the defence was.

0:44:07 > 0:44:11You know, I'll tell you exactly what I'm saying, Officer.

0:44:11 > 0:44:12You're bent.

0:44:33 > 0:44:34I didn't go home last night.

0:44:34 > 0:44:37I went to see my new squeeze from the CPS.

0:44:37 > 0:44:40Their Peckham boy, Darren Goodchild,

0:44:40 > 0:44:44is the younger brother of the better-known Jason Goodchild.

0:44:50 > 0:44:52What does DWB mean?

0:44:52 > 0:44:54Driving whilst black.

0:44:54 > 0:44:59- Does it happen to you? - No. I just know about it.

0:44:59 > 0:45:01From your brother...Jason?

0:45:03 > 0:45:05Does it happen to him, Darren?

0:45:09 > 0:45:1215 times he's been stopped in the past two years.

0:45:13 > 0:45:15- Why?- No reason.

0:45:15 > 0:45:17They wreck his life because he's black,

0:45:17 > 0:45:19and he's got a good-looking car.

0:45:21 > 0:45:24So, why are you here, Darren? I mean, what are you doing?

0:45:24 > 0:45:28I got asked to come cos I was on the demo and what happened

0:45:28 > 0:45:31to the officer. They knew me cos of my name.

0:45:31 > 0:45:33And what did they say to you?

0:45:42 > 0:45:46I'd say the most important thing to think about

0:45:46 > 0:45:50is not that David Cowdrey will go to prison

0:45:50 > 0:45:53for a very long time if he's found guilty...

0:45:54 > 0:45:58..but what the rest of your life will feel like

0:45:58 > 0:46:00if you do the wrong thing now.

0:46:04 > 0:46:06Now, I'm going to sit down,

0:46:06 > 0:46:08because it's not about me.

0:46:08 > 0:46:10It's about you.

0:46:18 > 0:46:23They told me if...if I co-operate on this, they'd leave my brother alone.

0:46:26 > 0:46:30Have you been...lying...

0:46:31 > 0:46:34..about how you came to be a witness in this trial?

0:46:34 > 0:46:35Yes.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38You wouldn't be here if it weren't for your brother...

0:46:39 > 0:46:42..and the offer the police made to you?

0:46:42 > 0:46:44No.

0:46:44 > 0:46:46But that's not the big question.

0:46:48 > 0:46:50I don't understand.

0:46:50 > 0:46:53You were on the demo,

0:46:53 > 0:46:56you're here now, you're under oath...

0:46:58 > 0:47:02..and this is the question that actually matters.

0:47:03 > 0:47:05Is it true?

0:47:06 > 0:47:07What you saw?

0:47:09 > 0:47:13Did David Cowdrey attack PC Webster?

0:47:16 > 0:47:18Yes, he did.

0:47:23 > 0:47:26The jury might believe that these police officers lied

0:47:26 > 0:47:28and cheated, and that would be enough,

0:47:28 > 0:47:31if it wasn't for Darren Goodchild.

0:47:32 > 0:47:34It's 50/50, David.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38I really need more from you.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43Who was it who told you to lick your toilet bowl?

0:47:45 > 0:47:46Wright?

0:47:50 > 0:47:55Look, I know you spoke to whoever it was. "Leave me alone," you said.

0:47:55 > 0:47:57Now look at me. David, look at me.

0:48:01 > 0:48:02I've never pushed you

0:48:02 > 0:48:05when I didn't think you could take it,

0:48:05 > 0:48:06but right now...

0:48:08 > 0:48:11..I need you to help me. Why won't you tell me?

0:48:15 > 0:48:16Sorry.

0:48:18 > 0:48:19Sorry.

0:48:23 > 0:48:26BACKGROUND CHATTER

0:48:32 > 0:48:34Ruby?

0:48:37 > 0:48:41"The boy in red. He needs taking out."

0:48:41 > 0:48:43- You heard this?- Yes.

0:48:45 > 0:48:48So, there was an undercover copper.

0:48:48 > 0:48:52- Did David take his picture?- Yes.

0:48:52 > 0:48:54And the camera?

0:48:54 > 0:48:57When the uniform police came for him, he took it.

0:48:57 > 0:48:59So, they came for the camera.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03Will you give evidence about this?

0:49:03 > 0:49:04No.

0:49:04 > 0:49:09Why not? Look, Ruby, you have to. If the jury hear this from you...

0:49:09 > 0:49:12- I can't.- Why not?

0:49:12 > 0:49:13Because of David.

0:49:13 > 0:49:16- What do you mean? - He was losing it.

0:49:16 > 0:49:19He went completely crazy.

0:49:19 > 0:49:22I think that's why the police came for him.

0:49:23 > 0:49:24I've got to go.

0:49:27 > 0:49:29Who's that? A client?

0:49:29 > 0:49:31- Yes.- Hm.

0:49:48 > 0:49:50What, you...you didn't see that? You didn't hear him?

0:49:50 > 0:49:52No. Who?

0:49:52 > 0:49:55- (SOBS)- He tells me what to do.

0:49:55 > 0:49:59- Go away! Go...- He? Who's he?

0:49:59 > 0:50:01And I have to do it.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04And what will happen if you don't?

0:50:04 > 0:50:05HE CRIES

0:50:05 > 0:50:09Oh, I...I'm not allowed to tell anyone and...

0:50:18 > 0:50:21- I'm sorry! I'm sorry! - Shh, shh, shh, shh.

0:50:21 > 0:50:25- I'm sorry! You've got to believe me! - Shh, shh, shh.

0:50:25 > 0:50:27HE SOBS

0:50:27 > 0:50:29Help me. Help...

0:50:32 > 0:50:34Mummy.

0:50:34 > 0:50:36Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

0:50:36 > 0:50:39- Voices?- One voice.

0:50:39 > 0:50:41- Schizophrenia? - I don't know what to do.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44- It's over. New trial. - Can you win?

0:50:44 > 0:50:47- From where you are in the trial? - What? You can't carry on.

0:50:47 > 0:50:50Have you asked him if the voice was speaking to him

0:50:50 > 0:50:51during the demonstration?

0:50:51 > 0:50:54Yes. It...it's touch and go.

0:50:54 > 0:50:58I got lucky with the notebooks. But, yes.

0:50:58 > 0:51:01And if you pull out now and there's a new trial with a new brief,

0:51:01 > 0:51:02running diminished?

0:51:02 > 0:51:04- Mental health disposal.- Martha.

0:51:04 > 0:51:08Have you been inside a psychiatric unit?

0:51:08 > 0:51:10Have you any idea what that does to a young person?

0:51:10 > 0:51:13Look at me, Clive. What do you see?

0:51:13 > 0:51:15I'm still not over it 35 years later.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18How would David Cowdrey get on in hell?

0:51:18 > 0:51:19Every other question,

0:51:19 > 0:51:22every other consideration is completely irrelevant.

0:51:22 > 0:51:25Bugger being a lawyer and taking instructions and rules.

0:51:25 > 0:51:27Do the right thing for that boy.

0:51:44 > 0:51:46What are you going to do?

0:51:46 > 0:51:48- I'm going to make a speech.- Why?

0:51:48 > 0:51:52Because an 18-year-old boy needs me to get him out of a system

0:51:52 > 0:51:55which will only make him much, much worse if he stays in it.

0:51:55 > 0:51:57But it won't be the truth, though, will it?

0:51:57 > 0:52:00The jury won't be hearing about schizophrenia, voices.

0:52:00 > 0:52:03Well, right now I've got one thing that I care about,

0:52:03 > 0:52:05saving David Cowdrey,

0:52:05 > 0:52:08and that...well, that feels pretty honest to me,

0:52:08 > 0:52:12and I don't care if you or anyone else thinks it's not my job to try.

0:52:13 > 0:52:15What about the truth of how PC Webster died,

0:52:15 > 0:52:19that the police only went in because David went berserk?

0:52:19 > 0:52:21Don't you have responsibility towards that?

0:52:21 > 0:52:24I can't be only a lawyer, Clive.

0:52:24 > 0:52:27- But, Martha... - Will you just leave me alone?

0:52:36 > 0:52:43Two nights ago, a man I represented walked out of his cell in prison

0:52:43 > 0:52:45and jumped from his landing

0:52:45 > 0:52:48onto the safety net that's there to prevent suicides.

0:52:51 > 0:52:56At that moment, he took a razor blade to his wrists.

0:52:56 > 0:53:00That man, Johnny Foster, died.

0:53:00 > 0:53:04He was serving a life sentence for something he didn't do,

0:53:04 > 0:53:07and that made his life intolerable.

0:53:08 > 0:53:10Now, why was he in prison?

0:53:10 > 0:53:14Because the police had fitted him up? Yes.

0:53:14 > 0:53:18But also because a jury and then the Court of Appeal

0:53:18 > 0:53:22had failed to see what the police had done.

0:53:23 > 0:53:29Juries have a duty to look very hard into police evidence.

0:53:29 > 0:53:35You are our protection against police corruption.

0:53:35 > 0:53:40Inspector Wright is guilty of deliberately misleading you.

0:53:40 > 0:53:41How?

0:53:41 > 0:53:44By altering his notebook, once the trial had begun,

0:53:44 > 0:53:48to create a version of why the police went in.

0:53:48 > 0:53:53Darren Goodchild was induced into giving evidence by the police.

0:53:53 > 0:53:58The prosecution bring this case. They have to prove it.

0:53:58 > 0:54:01Now, the defendant doesn't have to prove anything.

0:54:02 > 0:54:07If you think the police have lied and cheated,

0:54:07 > 0:54:12then you must find David Cowdrey not guilty

0:54:12 > 0:54:15of the unlawful killing of PC Webster.

0:54:42 > 0:54:44How long have the jury been out?

0:54:44 > 0:54:48Five minutes longer than when you last asked me.

0:54:49 > 0:54:51Who is it?

0:54:53 > 0:54:55Dad.

0:54:55 > 0:54:58- "Do what I say or..."- It's your dad?

0:54:58 > 0:55:00No, no.
