0:00:02 > 0:00:06This programme contains some strong language some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting
0:00:06 > 0:00:08- We've been sent a leg.- Whose leg did you think it was?
0:00:08 > 0:00:10It might be a girl called Brittany Brockbank.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12Do you still think it's one of those three men?
0:00:12 > 0:00:14Whittaker got away with murder twice.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16Laing charmed everyone while he kept his wife terrified.
0:00:16 > 0:00:17Brockbank was a child rapist,
0:00:17 > 0:00:20who managed to convince everyone that he was the injured party.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23Careful exiting the hotel. We were followed last night.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29- Are you having an affair? - Robs, please... I...
0:00:29 > 0:00:30We've just found a young woman's body
0:00:30 > 0:00:32in a building in Whitechapel High Street.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34We found it was you that invited her there.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38You've never met her? Kelsey Platt.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44# You and me
0:00:44 > 0:00:47# Me and you
0:00:47 > 0:00:52# Somehow we made it through
0:00:52 > 0:00:55# I may be gone
0:00:55 > 0:00:57# I may be far away
0:00:59 > 0:01:02# But I walk beside you
0:01:02 > 0:01:06# Every step of the way
0:01:06 > 0:01:09# When you're used
0:01:09 > 0:01:11# Bruised
0:01:11 > 0:01:13# Black and blue
0:01:13 > 0:01:17# Don't think about it
0:01:17 > 0:01:19# Never doubt it
0:01:20 > 0:01:22# I'll walk beside you. #
0:01:32 > 0:01:38REPORTERS ALL SPEAK AT ONCE
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Let's start with the photograph.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Sent to the papers by a concerned friend, is that right?
0:01:49 > 0:01:50Paedophile and murder suspect.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52It's not a popular spot on the Venn diagram.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55- Do you think the photo is doctored? - No.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Excuse me. Is this seat taken?
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- No.- Thanks.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00Simple as that.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03If you're trying to make me look dodgy, at some point I'll look up
0:02:03 > 0:02:05at the same moment you're looking at me.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06The photo taken in that split second
0:02:06 > 0:02:09will make it look like we're having a conversation.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11You find the person who took that photograph...
0:02:11 > 0:02:12..you'll have Kelsey's killer.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15It's probably someone she trusted. What else?
0:02:15 > 0:02:17That girl's wearing a vest top. So it was warm weather.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Probably taken at least five months ago. And she's reading a magazine.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23If the papers were sent a high-res image that'll help you date it.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Anything else? Kelsey's holding a bottle of water.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Who goes to a coffee shop to sit and drink water?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32I'd skew towards saying she came specifically to sit next to me,
0:02:32 > 0:02:33rather than to enjoy
0:02:33 > 0:02:35a freshly-prepared caffeinated beverage.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37You seem annoyed.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Have you found the three men I told Wardle about?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40I can't discuss that with you.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Because it's now part of a murder investigation?- Exactly.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- I don't care. I'll pay the fine. - I have asthma.
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Sorry.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Do we have a print out of Donald Laing's fundraising page?
0:03:23 > 0:03:24Yes, somewhere. Where are you?
0:03:24 > 0:03:26I just had a social down at the station.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31- Right... Do they have a lead? - Yes, me. So we better get a move on.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Just coming up now.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37This is the Strata building. Elephant and Castle.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39We can use this to work out what block he lived in.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42- There's no guarantee he's still there.- Great.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43I called Brockbank last night.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49He suggested meeting in Shoreditch, but then he hung up on me.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51We know he has a history of bouncing round strip clubs.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- I thought that would be a good place to start.- Yeah.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56I think he's living with a little girl.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00OK.
0:04:00 > 0:04:01Head down to Elephant and Castle.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03If you see Laing, keep your distance.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05No working after dark. Keep on the busy routes.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Yes, I have done counter-surveillance.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11If it was up to me you'd stay in Yorkshire until he's caught.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13He addressed the leg to you. He followed you.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- That's the pattern we have so far. - I know, and I will be careful.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Right, so you're checking out Laing. I'll look for Brockbank.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Do you know this guy?
0:04:47 > 0:04:48No, don't think so, mate. Sorry.
0:05:20 > 0:05:25- Have you been here before, darling? - No.- You know what this is?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Yeah, I think so.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35You want to dance? Private dance with me?
0:05:35 > 0:05:39- I'm looking for a friend. - I'll be your friend.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Not that kind of friend, sadly.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Perhaps you know my friend? Niall Brockbank?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- He owes me some money. - Des fired him.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03You're no use as a bouncer if you have a fit and piss yourself.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Would anyone here have his address?
0:06:05 > 0:06:06I think he lives with Alyssa.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08She's got the worst taste in men.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18- She's one of the dancers? - Mm. Des fired her as well.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21They're in some council flat over in Bow.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25She bitches about it but she likes the nursery her kids are in, so...
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Could you introduce me to Des?
0:06:29 > 0:06:32Thanks for the drink, darling, but I reckon you're trouble.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Normally I like trouble.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41PHONE VIBRATES
0:06:45 > 0:06:47What is it? What's wrong?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Uh, nothing, I'm fine. I've found Laing's block.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53It could be one of 100 flats but...
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Make sure you're home before sunset.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- How are the strip clubs?- Expensive.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Look, put yourself in a cab now, I can't...
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Cormoran, you have to stop treating me like I'm part of the problem.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07I'm having dinner with my mum tonight round the corner from work
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- so I will be perfectly safe.- Right.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14- Matt shouldn't have called you. - I'm glad he did.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17I'm not stopping doing this job. Not for anyone.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Whatever you do, you'll always have mine and your dad's full support,
0:07:20 > 0:07:22but, Robin, I do think it's time to make a decision.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24The wedding day's nearly here.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Have you seen this guy, Donald Laing?
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- No.- Thank you.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Hello.- Hello. Do you know this guy?
0:07:52 > 0:07:53No.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56Would you like to come back to Masham for a bit?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Be a bit looked after?- No. Sorry.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02I don't mean it like that. I just, um...
0:08:06 > 0:08:08I worry if...
0:08:09 > 0:08:13I worry I'd feel like I did before.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Like I was shutting out the world.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I want to stay in it.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Is that the famous Cormoran Strike?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- Donny Laing.- You here to see me?
0:08:42 > 0:08:45I'm not on licence or anything.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47I'm a private investigator now.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52Are you? Well... What're you here for, then?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55I recently spoke to a woman in Corby.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Not Lorraine, was it?- That's right.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02I never hit her, you understand?
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Lesson learned first fucking time.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Did you steal her jewellery?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10You've come to find...? That was years ago!
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Well, it had sentimental value.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16Well, tell her I'm sorry but her stuff's long gone.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19It's the truth. I didn't feel good about it.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23I'll pass that back to her.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30- What, is that it from you?- Yeah.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33A fine private investigator you turned out!
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Tracking down old bits of tat!
0:10:01 > 0:10:04There's £500.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07It could be the deposit on renting a flat of your own.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Or it could be a pair of really beautiful wedding shoes.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49Cormoran?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Thanks.- I, uh...
0:11:25 > 0:11:27..came back for some files and you were...
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Look. I've, um, been given some money.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Oh, it's only 500 quid but if we don't pay the bills
0:11:36 > 0:11:39we won't be able to work here any more.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Someone's trying to destroy me.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44I think I make a fairly poor prospect for investment.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Under the circumstances you're better off putting it on a horse.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Uh, I'm better off here.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51Let me do this for us.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Shit!- What?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Slept through a date.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04Who's the lucky girl?
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Swedish. Pretty. Doesn't give a fuck.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10Sounds perfect.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17I should go to bed.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Thanks for Donald Laing, by the way.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24But it's a dead end.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Guy's even more crippled than I am.
0:12:28 > 0:12:34- I really don't like you being out after dark. Take a cab.- Sure.
0:12:39 > 0:12:40Night.
0:12:41 > 0:12:42Night.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03What's all this?
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Uh, I made that Nigel Slater salmon thing you like.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Thanks. I ate with Mum.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18How is she?
0:13:18 > 0:13:20- She's fine.- Good.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Look, I've got something I need to say to you.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43What I did was unforgivable.
0:13:46 > 0:13:51I was 21. I was in so much pain.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53I was incredibly lonely and I made a mistake.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57You are the love of my life.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02And I want to marry you.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04More than anything that's what I want.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08But that's for you to decide. So...
0:14:14 > 0:14:15I'm asking you again.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18And if you say no, I'll accept it,
0:14:18 > 0:14:20and I'll leave the flat in the morning.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46I love you, darling.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48One day, you'll feel like that about somebody.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21DOOR OPENS
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Went for the knife. Very good.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28I'm just checking the locks.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I can see your door at the back there is, um...
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Well, it's not adequate.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38I need to go back to Masham for a few days
0:16:38 > 0:16:40for dress fittings and stuff.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43I know it's not great timing but is that OK?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44No, it's...
0:16:44 > 0:16:46It's good.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Keeps you out of harm's way.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Good.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52We'll just stick a padlock on that.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14HORN TOOTS
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Hi, Dad.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Where's Mum?
0:17:57 > 0:18:00You've never met her...
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Kelsey Platt?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Look...
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Oh, my God, it's you.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31I need to ask you about your sister.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32- Please.- Who is it, love?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35It's...
0:18:35 > 0:18:37It's Cormoran Strike.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Why's he here?
0:18:39 > 0:18:40Close the door!
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Wait...
0:18:42 > 0:18:44- Can, can you wait?- Yeah.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47You saw those photos of him and Kelsey!
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Look, I know what you're saying, but...
0:18:49 > 0:18:51..the police say they think he got set up.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52How's he even allowed to come here?
0:18:52 > 0:18:55Look, I know, but Kelsey looked up to him...
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Yeah, and look where she is now!
0:18:58 > 0:18:59Look, sorry.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02I know she was your sister but I cared about her, too.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Talk to him if you want, I won't.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09You can come in.
0:19:09 > 0:19:10Thank you.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Do you want to sit down?
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- Could I...?- Yeah.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27I'm very sorry for your loss.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32I suppose the police have asked you a lot of questions.
0:19:32 > 0:19:33Yeah, was I working?
0:19:34 > 0:19:39Signed statements from colleagues, payslips.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Ray had to print off photos of him and Ritchie fishing.
0:19:42 > 0:19:43Boat receipts, the lot.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48They were away that week in Wales.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50And, like, we're the ones who've lost her!
0:19:50 > 0:19:53SHE SOBS
0:19:53 > 0:19:54- Do you mind if I...?- No.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04SHUTTER CLICKS
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Do you have any idea who might have got close to Kelsey?
0:20:06 > 0:20:08No.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09No, she didn't have many friends.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14She came and lived with us after our mum died
0:20:14 > 0:20:16but there was always the age gap so...
0:20:16 > 0:20:19SHUTTER CLICKS
0:20:19 > 0:20:20..I don't know.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25SHE SOBS
0:20:28 > 0:20:29Could I use your loo?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31It's upstairs.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33SHUTTER CLICKS
0:21:40 > 0:21:44TOILET FLUSHES
0:21:48 > 0:21:50SHUTTER CLICKS
0:22:08 > 0:22:10You didn't do it, did you?
0:22:12 > 0:22:14No.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16I didn't.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21KNOCK ON DOOR
0:22:26 > 0:22:27You all right?
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Hmm.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33You should redecorate in here.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35It'll always be your room, love.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57You stupid bastard.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Ray said it felt like you were attacking Hazel.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Can you imagine if he'd gone to the papers instead of us?
0:23:05 > 0:23:08"Murder suspect shows up at grieving relatives' house
0:23:08 > 0:23:09"and demands to check their alibis."
0:23:09 > 0:23:13- That is not what I was... - You went there. It's unbelievable!
0:23:13 > 0:23:14So, what do you think I should do?
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Stay out of it, work your own cases.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Nobody wants to hire a detective
0:23:17 > 0:23:19who's accused of being a paedophile and a murderer.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22I can't afford the rent on this place next month.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24I'll have to make my partner redundant
0:23:24 > 0:23:25while she's on her honeymoon.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27So, what exactly do you suggest I do
0:23:27 > 0:23:29while someone's cutting up little girls on my account?
0:23:29 > 0:23:31We need you to trust us to do our job!
0:23:31 > 0:23:32The three names I gave you.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Who have you found?
0:23:34 > 0:23:35We're still making enquiries.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Right, Whittaker's in Catford,
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Laing was in Corby but is now in Elephant and Castle,
0:23:39 > 0:23:42and Brockbank just got fired from a strip club in Shoreditch.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44And your suggestion is I just sit back
0:23:44 > 0:23:47and wait for London's finest to plod along to the finish line?
0:23:47 > 0:23:48By the time you figure things out,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50I'll be on the street and Robin will be dead.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39Well, she's driving down now. You know that, obviously.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41What would it take for you to let her go?
0:27:41 > 0:27:43- What?- She's been followed.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45She's had body parts sent to her,
0:27:45 > 0:27:48she's had her flat broken into by someone who butchers women.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52I mean, you're just going to... like, see what happens to her next?
0:27:52 > 0:27:55- I understand you're having a difficult morning...- Oh, piss off!
0:27:55 > 0:27:58Robin's good at what she does. She's very good. She manages the risks.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01If she ever decides to hand in her notice, that'll be her decision
0:28:01 > 0:28:03but I would try to persuade her to stay.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06The police will watch the flat at night.
0:28:06 > 0:28:08I don't think he'll try anything here again.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12Yeah, but you don't know anything...really, though, do you?
0:28:12 > 0:28:13It's proving challenging.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Hiya.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53- How's Matthew? - Oh, he's fine.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55He went to work in the end.
0:28:55 > 0:28:56You all right?
0:28:58 > 0:29:01I spent about an hour checking the flat over and bleaching everything.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04- You know the police will... - Yeah, I know. I just...
0:29:06 > 0:29:08I got an exact address for Brockbank.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12I called round all the nurseries in Bow pretending to be Alyssa
0:29:12 > 0:29:15until one of them finally confirmed they had my address details right.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Very clever.
0:29:17 > 0:29:18Let's just find this guy.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21I can't go back to Whittaker, he saw me...
0:29:21 > 0:29:23..but...
0:29:23 > 0:29:25The person we're looking for is careful, deliberate.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Doesn't feel like Whittaker.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29But I don't know.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31I'll watch Whittaker.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34- Are you sure? It's a long... - I'll watch Whittaker!
0:29:36 > 0:29:38- Tea?- Yeah.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44- Ta.- Thank you.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57Gosh.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07Can I buy you some lunch?
0:30:07 > 0:30:09What?
0:30:09 > 0:30:12You look like you're having one of those days, I just thought...
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Order what you want, I'll pay.
0:30:15 > 0:30:16Anything I want?
0:30:16 > 0:30:18Yeah, come on. Are you hungry?
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Cheers.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34- Sore tooth?- Mm-hmm.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36Did your boyfriend do this?
0:30:38 > 0:30:40- Where is he?- He's going away.
0:30:40 > 0:30:41I didn't want him to go.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43That's why he's done it.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46I think he's got someone else.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49He says he's only going with the band but I don't believe him.
0:30:49 > 0:30:50What sort of music does he play?
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Metal.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54The band's called Death Cult.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56He's lead guitar.
0:30:56 > 0:30:57Do you go to all their gigs?
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Yeah. They're good.
0:31:00 > 0:31:01What's this?
0:31:04 > 0:31:06What's your name?
0:31:07 > 0:31:09- You made a little friend?- No.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Actually, I was just leaving.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13Really?
0:31:13 > 0:31:14Seems like such a shame.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Nice to meet you, Stephanie.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Fuck off. HE LAUGHS
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Obviously not such good friends after all.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22You've obviously tried very hard.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31Just being kind, were you?
0:31:31 > 0:31:32I was just concerned.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34She looked a bit beaten up.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Oh, I wouldn't worry too much about her,
0:31:37 > 0:31:40she can be a clumsy little bitch at times.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Get help for that tooth.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Yeah, I'm fine, I was just looking something up.
0:32:22 > 0:32:23I've taken a wrong turn.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Where are you?
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Just gone under the shopping precinct.
0:32:27 > 0:32:28Have you seen something?
0:32:29 > 0:32:32No. No, I'm fine. I'm just a bit jumpy.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34Where exactly are you? Street name.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37What...? I'm not quiet sure this has a name, actually.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34I'm not here to tell you off.
0:33:34 > 0:33:35How did you manage to...?
0:33:35 > 0:33:37I told you I did a self-defence course.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40He grabbed me from behind so I did what they taught me.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Kneed him in the groin.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Whittaker's disappeared, they're looking for him.
0:33:45 > 0:33:46I just...
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Whittaker's sort of thin and he...
0:33:51 > 0:33:54The guy that attacked me had a different build.
0:33:54 > 0:33:55I looked up Whittaker's band.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58They had a gig the night Kelsey was killed.
0:33:58 > 0:33:59I just...
0:33:59 > 0:34:01I don't think it's was him.
0:34:04 > 0:34:05I still want to work.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08FLATLY: Well, you've got your wedding to think about.
0:34:08 > 0:34:09Don't patronise me.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11- Thanks.- You can leave us alone now.
0:34:11 > 0:34:12Robin needs her rest.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Matthew's right. You should rest.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17Cormoran, what are we doing about Brockbank?
0:34:17 > 0:34:18The police are watching him.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Well, it's not where he goes, it's what he does inside the flat.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22We can't save everyone.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24You were nearly killed tonight.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26Let someone else take this one on.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Cormoran, we can't leave him with children.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34- Fine, I need to rest. - I get why you want to help.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36I need to rest.

0:34:42 > 0:34:44Cormoran, this has to end.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47She's barely trained and you sent her out, with no support.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49You're a sociopath.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Is that Ray? It's Cormoran Strike.
0:35:38 > 0:35:42I'd like you and Hazel to look at some photos of suspects.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46They're not great pictures, but they might jog a memory.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48Hazel needs some space.

0:36:57 > 0:36:58they can't take off-site.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00- Are you sure you're OK? - Yeah, I'm fine.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02I won't use the arm.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- She's coming. - Are we sure that's her?
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Fit black girl, two kids.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59What about him?
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Erm...
0:38:01 > 0:38:03Could we talk inside?
0:38:03 > 0:38:05It's important.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07Upstairs, Angel.
0:38:07 > 0:38:08Take your sister.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23I...

0:38:27 > 0:38:28My name's Robin.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32I'm...an investigator.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34Could, could we...?
0:38:38 > 0:38:42Look, this is going to be quite hard to hear
0:38:42 > 0:38:46but, during a course of a case we've been working on, we've found out...
0:38:46 > 0:38:48Sorry, who's this "we"?
0:38:48 > 0:38:52So, I work for an agency
0:38:52 > 0:38:54that's run by a guy called Cormoran Strike
0:38:54 > 0:38:56and we've been looking into Niall.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58All right, then. You can get out now.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00No, I really need to tell you this...
0:39:00 > 0:39:01I know who Cormoran Strike is.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03He gave my boyfriend epilepsy.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05- Get out right now.- Please. Alyssa, please just listen to this...
0:39:05 > 0:39:08You framed him up, ruined his marriage.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- I know all about you lot. - Niall sexually abuses young girls.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14- I am really sorry... - Get out of my house

0:39:21 > 0:39:24Mum...
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Just ask her.

0:39:39 > 0:39:42- You all right, Angel?- No, this bitch is telling lies about you.
0:39:42 > 0:39:43Is she now?
0:39:43 > 0:39:46Says she's with Cormoran Strike.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Look after Angel.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57You're not phoning anyone.
0:39:57 > 0:39:58Stay there.
0:40:01 > 0:40:02He done it to me.
0:40:04 > 0:40:05What?
0:40:07 > 0:40:10What's the idea, barging into people's houses,
0:40:10 > 0:40:12upsetting their kids, eh?
0:40:12 > 0:40:13SHE GROANS
0:40:13 > 0:40:15What the lady said.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17How's that, huh? Is it a bit sore?
0:40:17 > 0:40:19What you talking about?
0:40:19 > 0:40:21How's your bastard, Strike?
0:40:21 > 0:40:23- SHE GROANS - Shanker!
0:40:27 > 0:40:28Shanker!
0:40:30 > 0:40:32You dirty nonce! I'll skin ya!

0:41:24 > 0:41:27I told you we were leaving Brockbank to the police.
0:41:27 > 0:41:28- I know.- And you went in anyway.
0:41:30 > 0:41:32He was raping Alyssa's daughter.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34Wardle thinks I sent you in there and now, thanks to you,
0:41:34 > 0:41:37- Brockbank's vanished. - Don't you dare put that on me.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39- I do.- If you hadn't have messed up,
0:41:39 > 0:41:41Brockbank would've been in prison years ago.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Laing is a cripple, you ruled out Whittaker,
0:41:43 > 0:41:45that means that Brockbank was our number-one suspect,
0:41:45 > 0:41:47and now he's off the radar.
0:41:47 > 0:41:48We're finished.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51- You don't mean that. - I'll send your last salary on.

0:43:36 > 0:43:37for the anniversary.
0:43:37 > 0:43:39It's sea holly, isn't it?
0:43:39 > 0:43:44Not much to look at right now, but come June it'll be rather special.
0:43:44 > 0:43:46Call me next time you're up, all right?
0:43:46 > 0:43:48- Right.- Take care.- Bye.

0:44:14 > 0:44:16the one for people who hire firemen.
0:44:43 > 0:44:44Let me guess - you want a favour.
0:44:44 > 0:44:47I need you to watch my back.
0:44:47 > 0:44:49Can you meet me at Elephant at eight?
0:44:49 > 0:44:50Right.
0:44:50 > 0:44:52I'll text you the address.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55Cheers.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33Donnie? That you, Donnie?
0:45:33 > 0:45:34What's that smell?
0:45:34 > 0:45:36Gas. We got a call from upstairs.
0:45:36 > 0:45:37Probably coming from here.
0:45:37 > 0:45:39We're not going to get blown up, are we?
0:45:39 > 0:45:41Well, don't light any cigarettes.
0:45:41 > 0:45:42Shit.
0:45:42 > 0:45:45All right. Is Donnie in there? He owes me 40 quid.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47Afraid I can't help you, mate.
0:45:47 > 0:45:48Cheers.
0:47:25 > 0:47:27THEY GRUNT
0:47:40 > 0:47:41Where are you, Bunsen?
0:47:41 > 0:47:43HE YELLS
0:47:45 > 0:47:46Bunsen.
0:47:50 > 0:47:51Bunsen!
0:47:52 > 0:47:54Bunsen!
0:48:02 > 0:48:03- Oh!- Bunsen!
0:48:08 > 0:48:10What's going on?
0:48:10 > 0:48:11Bunsen, open up.
0:48:17 > 0:48:19PHONE RINGS
0:48:21 > 0:48:23Calls to this number have been blocked.
0:48:27 > 0:48:29DOOR CREAKS What kept you?
0:48:30 > 0:48:32That's a steel door.
0:48:40 > 0:48:42They're still cleaning up but forensics think there's more
0:48:42 > 0:48:44than one body in there.
0:48:46 > 0:48:49So what made you think Ray and Laing were the same person?
0:48:49 > 0:48:51The photo Ray gave the police has him
0:48:51 > 0:48:56on the beach next to sea holly in full bloom, supposedly in April.
0:48:56 > 0:48:57It was like the coffee shop photo.
0:48:59 > 0:49:01It was staged.
0:49:01 > 0:49:02Are you sure you're all right?
0:49:02 > 0:49:04Yeah.
0:49:04 > 0:49:07Sea holly doesn't flower in the wild till June.
0:49:07 > 0:49:08If you find the other bloke,
0:49:08 > 0:49:11Ritchie, I'm sure he'll tell you they were taken last year.
0:49:11 > 0:49:14Height of summer, but they put coats on to try and look cold.
0:49:14 > 0:49:17Ritchie probably thought he was taking part in a benefits scam
0:49:17 > 0:49:18or something.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21I'm imagining Ritchie's none too clever.
0:49:21 > 0:49:25There was a certificate for bravery hanging in Kelsey's sister's house.
0:49:27 > 0:49:28I called the Fire Service.
0:49:28 > 0:49:33The real Ray Williams, Mrs Williams' son, retired to Spain six years ago.
0:49:33 > 0:49:35Laing stole his identity.
0:49:35 > 0:49:36He was good at accents
0:49:36 > 0:49:39and he spent a lot of money disguising his appearance.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41He even managed to find a girl who'd made the mistake of having
0:49:41 > 0:49:42a crush on me.
0:49:47 > 0:49:49I'll come down the station tomorrow morning.
0:49:49 > 0:49:51Sounds good.
0:49:53 > 0:49:55MOBILE VIBRATES
0:49:58 > 0:50:00We picked up Brockbank.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04Get some sleep.
0:50:06 > 0:50:09FOOTSTEPS RECEDE
0:50:43 > 0:50:44Daddy wouldn't do that.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47I didn't mean any of it.
0:51:05 > 0:51:07I'm a friend of Brittany. BABY CRIES
0:51:10 > 0:51:12I won't be long. All right?
0:51:50 > 0:51:51What will happen to him now?
0:51:53 > 0:51:55Nothing that involves you.
0:51:55 > 0:51:59He'll be tried and put away for a very long time,
0:51:59 > 0:52:03and when he's released he'll be on the sex offenders register for life.
0:52:03 > 0:52:04That's good.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08I wanted you to know
0:52:08 > 0:52:09before, you know...
0:52:12 > 0:52:15He should've been put in prison a long time ago.
0:52:15 > 0:52:17We failed you there, Brittany.
0:52:18 > 0:52:19I failed you.
0:52:19 > 0:52:21You believed me, though.
0:52:21 > 0:52:23And you tried.
0:52:23 > 0:52:24That helped a lot.
0:52:27 > 0:52:28Was it you who caught him?
0:52:30 > 0:52:32No. It was my partner.
0:52:32 > 0:52:34For a case you were doing?
0:52:34 > 0:52:35No.
0:52:35 > 0:52:37But she did it anyway?
0:52:37 > 0:52:39Yeah.
0:52:39 > 0:52:40Is she all right?
0:52:41 > 0:52:43She's a bit bruised, but she'll live.
0:52:45 > 0:52:46Will you thank her for us?
0:52:48 > 0:52:50What's her name? Your partner.
0:52:52 > 0:52:53Her name is Robin.
0:53:00 > 0:53:01We've got a second stop.
0:53:01 > 0:53:02Yorkshire.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04Where's that?
0:53:04 > 0:53:07Yorkshire! The county. You know.
0:53:07 > 0:53:11HE IMITATES YORKSHIRE ACCENT Yorkshire!
0:53:11 > 0:53:13Just keep going north till I tell you to stop.
0:53:13 > 0:53:15CAR ENGINE STARTS

0:53:45 > 0:53:47- It's down.- Put it down further.
0:53:47 > 0:53:51Jeez. I am not having this for the next hundred miles.
0:53:57 > 0:54:00Well, that's you sorted then, innit?
0:54:00 > 0:54:01Back to being the hero of the hour.
0:54:01 > 0:54:02Yeah.
0:54:03 > 0:54:06I mean, there's no fixing everything, but...
0:54:06 > 0:54:08Nah. Nah, there's not. That's just life, innit, mate?
0:54:17 > 0:54:20What's the deal, then, Bunsen, you going to go full-on Graduate?
0:54:20 > 0:54:21"Elaine!
0:54:21 > 0:54:24"Elaine! What about me?"
0:54:24 > 0:54:27No, I was invited. I'm a friend, a guest.
0:54:27 > 0:54:28Oh, you're a friend, yeah, right.
0:54:28 > 0:54:30You sacked her, mate.
0:54:30 > 0:54:31That's not exactly a friend where I come from.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37Reminds me of your mum.
0:54:37 > 0:54:38Who?
0:54:38 > 0:54:40Who?! Your Robin.
0:54:40 > 0:54:45She's kind, isn't she? Like the way she wanted to save that kid.
0:54:45 > 0:54:47Well, I'm going to try and get her back, aren't I,
0:54:47 > 0:54:50- but next time she calls you, if she calls you...- Yeah, all right, yeah.
0:54:50 > 0:54:52- Call you first, yeah. All right.- Yeah?
0:54:52 > 0:54:53Jesus, Dad!

0:54:58 > 0:55:02why these persons may not lawfully marry to declare it now.
