0:00:20 > 0:00:26Release, that's what we long for - an end to our craving...

0:00:28 > 0:00:31..which death, perhaps, will provide.

0:00:31 > 0:00:37Until then, we are locked into our bodies, consumed by what we lack...

0:00:39 > 0:00:43...at the mercy of ourselves and of each other.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49Release, that's what we long for.

0:00:54 > 0:00:55What? Am I for you?

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Are you the one who wants it?

0:01:01 > 0:01:03Or are you taking me to someone else?

0:01:30 > 0:01:32BIRDSONG

0:01:32 > 0:01:34INTERCOM RINGS

0:01:34 > 0:01:35Mmm!

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Postman Pat.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Oh, sorry, Pat. Your name's not down on the list.

0:01:44 > 0:01:48- Detective Inspector Hale. - Oh, Hale!

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Right. BUZZ

0:02:04 > 0:02:07Hmm, you brought me a present!

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Thought I'd give you a hand.

0:02:11 > 0:02:13You should have left it where it was.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17That's what I told the woman whose dog dug it up in the woods.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18She brought it into the nick.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21I've been up there with the Scene Of Crime guys - nothing else.

0:02:21 > 0:02:22Thief, chopped his hand off.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25But he's still alive - severance postmortem.

0:02:25 > 0:02:27- Mm. - Good. Male or female?

0:02:27 > 0:02:30I'd say male and weeks. Implement?

0:02:30 > 0:02:32- Chainsaw, hacksaw, jigsaw? - No, unserrated.

0:02:32 > 0:02:33- Axe? - Could be, yeah.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35Sharp force, trauma and crushing.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Do you want to do the DNA? - Yeah, sure.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38Have you got the coordinates of the find site?

0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Oh, yeah. - I'll do that geodata

0:02:40 > 0:02:41and I'll get it up on screen.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- OK, the hand has been degloved. - Outer skin's gone - no fingerprints.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49- The killer did that? - No, decomposition.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Sloughs off after one or two weeks. The owner's dog probably ate it.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54We don't know there's a killer.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56I know he didn't bury his own hand.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00Whoa, look at this place! And the hand was found near here?

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Yup.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04You know who lives there, don't you? Harold Penton.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06- The Harold Penton?- Who?

0:03:06 > 0:03:10Made his money in the '80s, '90s - property, also asset stripped

0:03:10 > 0:03:12- a few vulnerable companies. - Wasn't there a pension fund thing?

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Yeah, didn't make it to court.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16When you've got that much money,

0:03:16 > 0:03:19you live outside the law, outside of society, or at least...

0:03:19 > 0:03:20you think you can.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24He's locked himself away in there for the last 20 years. Total recluse.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Conducts all his business on the phone.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28What's wrong with that?

0:03:28 > 0:03:29All right, here it is.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33Three months ago, an 18-year-old boy, Sam Villiers, worked in the grounds,

0:03:33 > 0:03:34reported that he'd been sexually assaulted

0:03:34 > 0:03:37by Harold Penton. The next day,

0:03:37 > 0:03:42suddenly drops the charges... then he disappears.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44And you think that's his hand?

0:03:44 > 0:03:45Well, we can't trace him.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52Where are we going?

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Oh, mate, you don't want me to look at you,

0:04:00 > 0:04:01I won't look at you.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05We've got a positive on narcotics.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07There's a speck of heroin deep under his fingernail.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Sam Villiers could have been a user.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Dealer. A drug dealer. Rival gang dismembered him

0:04:11 > 0:04:14and then to avoid detection they scatter his body over ten counties.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- Stick with the material, Oggy. - Why ten?

0:04:17 > 0:04:20Two hands, two feet, two arms, two legs, torso, head - ten.

0:04:20 > 0:04:21Oh, right(!)

0:04:21 > 0:04:23- The older punctures look vulpine. - Fox.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25See, he's cleverer than he pretends to be.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27Foxes bury food.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30How far would they go before they buried the food?

0:04:30 > 0:04:33Not far. Probable radius...

0:04:33 > 0:04:37- less than a kilometre. - Uh-huh. I'll get the warrant.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39And let's go and see Mr Penton.

0:04:39 > 0:04:40If you loved me you'd go.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43You'll be back in no time.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46No time.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50He sounds like a sicko, though. What if he wants to hurt me?

0:04:50 > 0:04:51- Don't be a pussy!- Shut up!

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Don't go, suit yourself, and then we won't have any gear! That won't hurt, will it?!

0:04:57 > 0:05:00There used to be a public footpath running through these grounds.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04Penton closed it. Got his security guards to menace the walkers.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06I didn't know you rambled. PEACOCKS CRY

0:05:06 > 0:05:07What other hobbies have you got?

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Look at the right to roam campaigns in the 1930s.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13They helped to inform the creation of the welfare state.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16It's not about hobbies, it's about whose country it is.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18The rich screw the poor.

0:05:18 > 0:05:19Yes, they do.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21So, what are you hoping for here?

0:05:21 > 0:05:25Well, you know, rape and murder. Oh, and world peace, of course(!)

0:05:27 > 0:05:29DI Hale. Good morning.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Mister, er... - West. What's the problem?

0:05:32 > 0:05:34- Do you live here? - Yes, I work for Mr Penton.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36Can we come in?

0:05:36 > 0:05:37Please.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40PEACOCKS CRY

0:05:41 > 0:05:43DOOR SHUTS

0:05:43 > 0:05:46CLOCK STRIKES

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Have you worked for him long? - Only 30 years.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53- So, er, what is the problem? - Oh, we need to speak to Mr Penton.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55I'm sorry, that isn't possible.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57(Oh, is he OUT?)

0:05:57 > 0:05:58He's not out.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- No, I didn't mean out in a gay way. - Neither did I.

0:06:02 > 0:06:04- It's a health issue.- Hm.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07- What's the issue? What's wrong with him?- Chronic lung condition.

0:06:07 > 0:06:13Exacerbated by a number of phobias centring around human contact.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17If you try to interview him now, you'd be breaching explicit medical advice...

0:06:17 > 0:06:18It's not an interview.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21..which will give you a lot of legal problems.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Would you like it in black and white...

0:06:24 > 0:06:25from his doctor?

0:06:29 > 0:06:32Only one phobia really. Fear of justice.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36So, tell me, Mr West...

0:06:37 > 0:06:39..why do you think we're here?

0:06:39 > 0:06:40I have no idea.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42We found a hand.

0:06:42 > 0:06:43A right hand.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46And you're his right-hand man, aren't you?

0:06:46 > 0:06:49So we'd presume that it came from this property.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51It's not Mr Penton's, is it?

0:06:51 > 0:06:53He hasn't lost one lately, has he?

0:06:53 > 0:06:54No.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56No? I'm thinking it may be some kind of

0:06:56 > 0:07:00- terrible money-counting accident. - He's trying to aggravate me.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Did you cut the body up?- No.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Ah...- What body?

0:07:05 > 0:07:07You should have said "what body" first(!)

0:07:07 > 0:07:10- OK, this is harassment. - We need to find him.

0:07:10 > 0:07:13You need a warrant.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14Oh, yeah...

0:07:26 > 0:07:27This is for the grounds only.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30So get out of this house.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Please.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47BEEPING

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Did you see Penton?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Yeah, looks scared.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Good, so he should.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Like he'd sentenced himself to solitary confinement.

0:07:59 > 0:08:00Oh, what? You feel sorry for him?!

0:08:00 > 0:08:02Yeah. Me too(!)

0:08:02 > 0:08:06I mean, you can't help sympathising with a reclusive sociopath, can you(?)

0:08:06 > 0:08:07Poor thing.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Must be so isolated.

0:08:09 > 0:08:15The hand was found 100 metres on the other side of that point in the wall.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- OK?- Yup.

0:08:17 > 0:08:18He sounds like a sicko though.

0:08:18 > 0:08:19What if he wants to hurt me?

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Don't be a pussy!- Shut up.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24There's a possible fox trail here.

0:08:31 > 0:08:32Eve?

0:08:34 > 0:08:35Yeah?

0:08:40 > 0:08:43HE COUGHS AND SPLUTTERS

0:08:43 > 0:08:45- Hale! - Someone was digging here.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48I'd say about four weeks ago, judging by the new growth.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50No body?

0:08:50 > 0:08:52No. An attempted grave, but they couldn't get deep enough

0:08:52 > 0:08:54too many roots. See the spade cuts?

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Right. Would have gone

0:08:57 > 0:08:59- straight through the wrist, I suppose.- Yeah.

0:08:59 > 0:09:00So he gave up.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05OK. West drives the body from the house.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08He's identified this as the perfect burial place -

0:09:08 > 0:09:12it's secluded - but...hadn't reckoned on the roots.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15So he goes off to find a new burial place,

0:09:15 > 0:09:17comes back to pick up the body.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Mr Fox has run off with a severed hand. That works, yeah?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21In theory, yeah.

0:09:21 > 0:09:22What killed these?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Um, let me see.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Where would be the perfect place for the new burial site?

0:09:27 > 0:09:30- No trees, soft ground. - A vegetable garden?

0:09:30 > 0:09:31- A vegetable garden's good.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Loose soil.- Turned frequently.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Yeah, but too easily discovered.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Well, you cover it with compost and disguise it. Compost.- Yeah.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39- Cook it.- What?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42- Compost generates heat. - Accelerates decay.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Cooks the flesh right off the bone.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45A great place to bury a body.

0:09:45 > 0:09:46Anything?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Yeah, there's a lot of heat from the core.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Naturally.

0:09:50 > 0:09:51You've found something?

0:09:51 > 0:09:53Materials in a state of rapid decomposition.

0:09:53 > 0:09:54A reactive compost heap.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Thermal won't tell us if it's animal or vegetable.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59So what's the point of having the gizmo?

0:09:59 > 0:10:01- Why not get a dog? - Ah, hang on!

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Woof, woof! Big hot spot.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09I'd say we were down to around four weeks ago, but this...

0:10:09 > 0:10:10This is a lot older.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12- From the bottom?- Yeah.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16So, does that mean somebody has dug down into it?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18A month ago.

0:10:18 > 0:10:19Mike, get me a tub.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25Oggy, help me out with this. Is this what I think it is?

0:10:29 > 0:10:30Hello, mate.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31Dermestidae.

0:10:31 > 0:10:35Skin beetle, consistent with the fourth stage of cadaver decomposition.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37- We're in the right place.- Mm-hm.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41LABOURED BREATHING

0:10:45 > 0:10:46What are the five stages again?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49Fresh, bloat, active decay,

0:10:49 > 0:10:51advanced decay, dry remains.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55Story of my marriage.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11You fell to Earth,

0:11:11 > 0:11:13you got lost...

0:11:15 > 0:11:18..and left behind.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20FLIES BUZZ

0:11:20 > 0:11:23I'll go and break the good news.

0:11:24 > 0:11:25Sean.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Help me out, yeah?

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Just a ten bag.

0:11:33 > 0:11:34I'll pay you tomorrow.

0:11:34 > 0:11:39No. No, see that's the thing about tomorrow, man.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41- It never comes.- It will.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45You... You need to make someone happy.

0:11:48 > 0:11:49Move!

0:11:57 > 0:12:01PEACOCKS CRY

0:12:05 > 0:12:06Where are you off to?

0:12:08 > 0:12:10I'm, er, taking Mr Penton for a drive.

0:12:10 > 0:12:11What's that, his wallet?

0:12:14 > 0:12:18You should say goodbye to your career, mate.

0:12:18 > 0:12:19He's got the best lawyers in the country.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21- So you're leaving now, are you? - Yeah.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Are you going to take the body with you?

0:12:26 > 0:12:27Yeah, that's right.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28We found him.

0:12:30 > 0:12:31No comment.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Whose body? That's what you're supposed to say. Whose body?

0:12:36 > 0:12:39So, who murdered him? Was it you or Penton?

0:12:39 > 0:12:42OK, if you want to arrest somebody, arrest me.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45I'll bet Mr Penton's worried sick, isn't he?

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Why don't you pop up there and tell him that he's got every right to.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Oh, er...

0:12:56 > 0:12:58..have you got his passport?

0:13:02 > 0:13:07Thank you. Tell Mr Penton that I'm really looking forward to meeting him...

0:13:07 > 0:13:09after I've got what I want from the body.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20Like an alien.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24His skin proved too thin for this world.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27- You got Sam Villiers' dental records?- Yeah, they've just come through,

0:13:27 > 0:13:29but this is not Sam Villiers.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31It's not him?!

0:13:32 > 0:13:34- Well, who is it, then?- Don't know.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36We're still working on his clothes, but, um,

0:13:36 > 0:13:40no ID. There's just a syringe - unused, still packaged -

0:13:40 > 0:13:42and the key in his pocket.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46- Into one of a million doors. - The body decomposed more rapidly

0:13:46 > 0:13:49in compost than it would have done underground,

0:13:49 > 0:13:53which makes cause of death difficult to determine,

0:13:53 > 0:13:56but there's no sign of blunt trauma, bullet or knife wounds.

0:13:56 > 0:13:57- Asphyxiation?- Could be.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Strangulation? Suffocation?

0:14:01 > 0:14:04I'll need to work on the airways and lungs, which aren't well preserved.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06Informant. They cut out his tongue and buried him in grass,

0:14:06 > 0:14:08like a warning to grasses.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10They cut out his tongue?!

0:14:10 > 0:14:11Mm.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13Eaten, I think.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15By maggots, not cannibals.

0:14:15 > 0:14:20OK, liver sample says heroin addict, plus two different STDs in the blood

0:14:20 > 0:14:22plus hepatitis B and C.

0:14:23 > 0:14:24Rent boy.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26- What? - Sexually transmitted diseases,

0:14:26 > 0:14:28plus smack,

0:14:28 > 0:14:30plus malnutrition, yeah?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33West picks him up, takes him back to the mansion

0:14:33 > 0:14:37so that he can satisfy Penton's perverted lust. It fits.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40This is a guy who's afraid to go out,

0:14:40 > 0:14:44he's a confirmed bachelor, there's the sexual assault allegations...

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Sorry, when you say perverted, do you just mean gay?

0:14:47 > 0:14:51No, Rosa. When I say perverted, I mean someone paying for sex...

0:14:51 > 0:14:52and then killing them.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57- So Penton doesn't like human contact? - SHE MOUTHS

0:14:57 > 0:14:59Let's go and visit his doctor.

0:14:59 > 0:15:00There is a thing called patient confidentiality...

0:15:00 > 0:15:05There is a thing called murder, and this guy is hiding behind your diagnosis,

0:15:05 > 0:15:07so we'd like to hear it from you.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10HE SIGHS

0:15:10 > 0:15:12It's, um...

0:15:12 > 0:15:13a psychosomatic condition.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Mental/emotional and physical.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20He doesn't want to be touched by human hand...

0:15:20 > 0:15:23or human anything.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Nor does he want to touch. The prospect horrifies him.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29When you say "horrifies him", what do you mean? It disgusts him?

0:15:29 > 0:15:35Yes. Revulsion, nausea, and, er, an overriding panic,

0:15:35 > 0:15:38which can affect his ability to breathe.

0:15:38 > 0:15:42His lung capacity isn't great anyway and he had TB as a child,

0:15:42 > 0:15:47which may account for his fear of contact - his fear of infection.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50The body that we found in the grounds was a young man, a prostitute.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53Does Mr Penton use rent boys?

0:15:53 > 0:15:56Of course not! I've just explained his condition.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Yeah, well, maybe he's making it up, you know,

0:15:58 > 0:16:02to avoid the boring stuff, give himself a bit more space, bit of time,

0:16:02 > 0:16:05a bit more privacy to play with who he wants to. Maybe...

0:16:05 > 0:16:07he's deceived you, Dr Grove.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09I don't think so.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Well, we need to speak to Mr Penton now

0:16:11 > 0:16:13and we'd like to take a DNA sample from him.

0:16:13 > 0:16:17I don't want to encounter any medical problems,

0:16:17 > 0:16:19so do you mind coming with us?

0:16:20 > 0:16:21HE MOUTHS

0:16:24 > 0:16:26OK, mate, I just need to put you to sleep.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Sorry, I mean death.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35The plants from the first burial site were killed by cold.

0:16:41 > 0:16:42What, frost?

0:16:42 > 0:16:46Colder, like something minus 20 was pressed down upon them.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51The body - it was frozen.

0:16:55 > 0:17:00Penton kills the kid, they don't know what to do with the body.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04They need time to think, so...

0:17:04 > 0:17:06they put it in the freezer,

0:17:06 > 0:17:10come back to the burial a couple of days later.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13- Or weeks later.- Yeah.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Don't eat all the ice cream, children(!)

0:17:32 > 0:17:34And, er, why do they need to look in the freezer?

0:17:34 > 0:17:39You look worried. It's all right - they won't touch the ice cream.

0:17:40 > 0:17:46Now, we need to take saliva samples, so, um, do you mind opening your mouth?

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Thank you.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Right, let's do Mr Penton.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12MONITOR BEEPS STEADILY

0:18:15 > 0:18:16Mr Penton.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20BREATHLESSLY: You've come... to take something from me.

0:18:20 > 0:18:21Yeah, we have.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25I just need to wipe the inside of your cheek with this, gently.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27Then you've got me...

0:18:27 > 0:18:29HE WHEEZES

0:18:29 > 0:18:32..in your system.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35Oh, it's your system too. It's our system.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39You're a citizen, you pay tax...don't you?

0:18:39 > 0:18:44It is safe, Mr Penton. Minimal risk of infection.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47I won't touch you.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48HE BREATHES RAPIDLY

0:18:53 > 0:18:58HE PANTS

0:18:58 > 0:19:03Thank you. This will take a while to process.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07And then we'll see if it matches... what we found inside the dead boy.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10BREATHLESSLY: What did you find inside him?

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Guess.

0:19:11 > 0:19:15HE PANTS HEAVILY

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Yeah, I thought he'd get that.

0:19:17 > 0:19:21That's provocation! You're deliberately exacerbating his condition!

0:19:21 > 0:19:22Doctor, you're a witness to this!

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Let's all just calm down, yes?

0:19:24 > 0:19:27Now you've got what you came for.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Thank you. Mr Penton needs to rest.

0:19:30 > 0:19:31I'll be in touch.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50Nice bluff.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52Ace in the hole!

0:19:52 > 0:19:54I use "nice" in the sense of cruel and unethical.

0:19:54 > 0:19:58Might not be a bluff. You might find an ace...

0:19:58 > 0:20:02- a trace in the hole. - Semen? I don't think so.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Decomposition's too advanced.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Pleased with yourself?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Can I go now? I have to pick up my kids.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Sure.

0:20:11 > 0:20:12Thanks.

0:20:20 > 0:20:25So...put me out of my misery. Anything interesting in the freezer?

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- Just a bit of blood. - Blood? Blood's good!

0:20:28 > 0:20:30Well, only if it's human.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- Eve?- Yeah?

0:20:39 > 0:20:41First blood sample's bovine.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Oh... OK, thanks.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Rosa, do you recognise this mould?

0:20:54 > 0:20:55Hmm?

0:20:57 > 0:21:02Er, it's paper. I'd say 180 gsm, non-gloss,

0:21:02 > 0:21:06peach base, two...no, three-colour print.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Business card maybe?

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Mind you, it's square.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Oh, see this ragged edge,

0:21:12 > 0:21:14someone's probably just torn a strip off it, for a roach, maybe?

0:21:14 > 0:21:18- Roach, a cockroach?- You joker!

0:21:18 > 0:21:20You're not joking.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23A roach - a little cylinder that you use for a filter for a spliff.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28Have you never skinned up before?

0:21:28 > 0:21:31Yeah...obviously.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33I'm not seven.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35ROSA CHUCKLES

0:21:35 > 0:21:38A roach...

0:21:38 > 0:21:39Roach.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Torch...

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Eve?

0:22:04 > 0:22:05Eve!

0:22:26 > 0:22:29- Come back in. Sorry about that. - Thank you.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33OK. People do come and go, they disappear.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Often we don't know if they've gone home or what.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38But I'm wondering if it's Jason. Not tall, you said?

0:22:38 > 0:22:40No.

0:22:40 > 0:22:41Right, hang on.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45Er, has anyone seen Jason this past month?

0:22:45 > 0:22:48MURMURING

0:22:48 > 0:22:50Jason?

0:22:50 > 0:22:51About this height,

0:22:51 > 0:22:54dark hair, smackhead.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56Sean, you seen him?

0:22:56 > 0:22:57No.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Right, thank you.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01I bet it's Jason.

0:23:03 > 0:23:04Shit.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Sorry. Do you have an address?

0:23:07 > 0:23:10I've got his phone number.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13Haven't got an address.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16He lived in a squat, derelict street in Southfields.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20I gave him a lift home a couple of months ago.

0:23:20 > 0:23:21Kelsey Road,

0:23:21 > 0:23:25about halfway down on the right-hand side coming from city centre.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Thank you. Thanks very much.

0:23:29 > 0:23:30He's one of those ones who wouldn't look after himself.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32I told him, "You're coughing,

0:23:32 > 0:23:34"you're not well, see the doctor," but he never did.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38Nice kid. Not a survivor.

0:23:49 > 0:23:50Cheers, mate.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09SIREN WAILS

0:24:09 > 0:24:11I wonder who killed this street.

0:24:11 > 0:24:12No-one you can prosecute.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15DOG BARKS

0:24:21 > 0:24:23So...

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Anything?- No.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51- Bingo.- Hmm.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Let's see what's left behind.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56Hello?

0:25:03 > 0:25:05Anyone there?

0:25:21 > 0:25:23Hello?

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Is he alive?

0:25:27 > 0:25:28Just about.

0:25:28 > 0:25:29Hey...

0:25:29 > 0:25:31HE SHOUTS

0:25:31 > 0:25:33What you doing here?!

0:25:33 > 0:25:34SHOUTING

0:25:34 > 0:25:36- Please!- Get off!

0:25:37 > 0:25:39Drop the knife!

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Police!

0:25:43 > 0:25:44Wait, he's dropped the knife.

0:25:44 > 0:25:45What have I done?!

0:25:45 > 0:25:47The other guy that lives here, young guy?

0:25:47 > 0:25:50Jason? Have you found him?

0:25:52 > 0:25:54Is he OK?

0:25:56 > 0:26:00- No!- I'm sorry.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Jason's dead.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06Here, come and sit on the bed.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07Where's his family live?

0:26:07 > 0:26:09I don't know - he wasn't in touch with them.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11You're not well. I'm just going to take your temperature.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13- When did you last see him?- Hey!

0:26:13 > 0:26:15- Now concentrate! I need... - He is too ill to be interrogated!

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Is there someone who can look after you? Your parents?

0:26:18 > 0:26:19No, I don't...

0:26:19 > 0:26:20- Look, hang on... - What's your name?

0:26:20 > 0:26:22- Sam.- I'm...

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Sam Villiers. Can I see Jason, please?

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Sam Villiers?

0:26:28 > 0:26:31- You used to work for Harold Penton? - Yeah.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Well, of course you can see him, son.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40No problem, no problem.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43You can identify the body.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49See you later.

0:26:51 > 0:26:52I love you.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Familiar?

0:27:09 > 0:27:10Yeah.

0:27:17 > 0:27:18Thanks.

0:27:23 > 0:27:25You don't have to do this.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Are you sure?

0:27:34 > 0:27:35All right?

0:27:40 > 0:27:41Jesus!

0:27:41 > 0:27:42Sorry.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44Oh, Sam!

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Whoa, he's banged himself. Get him some water.

0:27:47 > 0:27:50- HE COUGHS - Are you all right, lad?

0:27:54 > 0:27:57Interesting, the way he's...not dead.

0:27:57 > 0:27:58Yeah.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01You know that thing,

0:28:01 > 0:28:03you weigh someone just before and just after they die

0:28:03 > 0:28:06and there's a difference of 21 grams.

0:28:06 > 0:28:07Hmm, not much.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09The weight of the soul.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Is he a junkie too?

0:28:14 > 0:28:15Yeah.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Why do they do it?

0:28:19 > 0:28:20Because you feel fantastic.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Best you've ever felt.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Heaven.

0:28:27 > 0:28:28And then you wake up...

0:28:30 > 0:28:31..in hell.

0:28:34 > 0:28:37So you'll meet me back here when you've done,

0:28:37 > 0:28:40you give me the cash and I'll give you some good shit.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42HE COUGHS

0:28:42 > 0:28:43SIREN WAILS

0:28:46 > 0:28:50No! I know you did not just try and thieve from me!

0:28:53 > 0:28:56Meet me here when you're done.

0:29:05 > 0:29:08You were working for Penton and he sexually assaulted you?

0:29:08 > 0:29:10I don't want to go there!

0:29:10 > 0:29:12You made the allegation and then you withdrew it. Why?

0:29:12 > 0:29:13Did he scare you off?

0:29:14 > 0:29:17- Huh? No, they paid you off!- No.

0:29:17 > 0:29:18Of course, and now the money's spent,

0:29:18 > 0:29:19like you say, you don't want to go there,

0:29:19 > 0:29:21so you get Jason to go there and ask for a little bit more.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- No!- No, to earn some more.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26No! No, he got a phone call, right, a voice mail

0:29:26 > 0:29:30and he didn't tell me at first. He thought the guy's voice sounded weird.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33He didn't want to go because he thought he might get hurt,

0:29:33 > 0:29:35- but I made him! - What, a complete stranger?

0:29:35 > 0:29:38Yeah, he just says, "Market Corner, ten tonight, 100 quid."

0:29:38 > 0:29:40Did Jason advertise his number? Is that how he does business?

0:29:40 > 0:29:42No, he just works the streets. Someone must have give the number to this guy.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44- And is that someone you?- No!

0:29:44 > 0:29:46- And is the guy Mr West? - Shut up! I didn't set him up, all right?

0:29:46 > 0:29:49This isn't my fault! No-one told me he was gonna get killed!

0:29:49 > 0:29:51- What's going on? - No, it's fine, thank you.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54No, he's dead! He's dead and no-one cares.

0:29:54 > 0:29:55I care about what...

0:29:55 > 0:29:56About me?!

0:29:56 > 0:29:58No-one cares about me!

0:29:58 > 0:29:59He was the only one!

0:30:01 > 0:30:03You wanna give us a minute?

0:30:07 > 0:30:08Yeah.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16HE SOBS

0:30:16 > 0:30:19If we get on a programme, do the methadone...

0:30:19 > 0:30:23- It doesn't work! I've tried it. - I haven't. It might...

0:30:23 > 0:30:24It doesn't! I'm telling you, I've tried it!

0:30:24 > 0:30:26You could try again.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29- Try harder.- Try harder?

0:30:30 > 0:30:34YOU TRY HARDER! GO ON, YOU TRY HARDER, SEE IF IT WORKS!

0:30:34 > 0:30:36Is there something I can get you?

0:30:36 > 0:30:39Yeah, I... I just...

0:30:39 > 0:30:41I just need a...a little bit.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Just so I can sleep.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46I... I close my eyes and I see his face and then...

0:30:46 > 0:30:49I get these cramps and it's just...

0:30:49 > 0:30:51- HE GRUNTS - OK, it's OK.

0:30:51 > 0:30:54Please, Rosa, please, there must be something here, something powerful

0:30:54 > 0:30:56- like morphine or something. - Look, it's not a hospital.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58- I've got this number, just a tenner...- I can't do that.

0:30:58 > 0:31:01- I'll pay you back, I swear!- It's not money, I'll give you the money.

0:31:01 > 0:31:02You can take this pain away.

0:31:04 > 0:31:10Have... Have you got a pen? It's... It's 0779...

0:31:10 > 0:31:13- Have you got paper?! - Look, I can't. I can't help you.

0:31:15 > 0:31:16SHE YELLS

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Don't!

0:31:20 > 0:31:22You remind me of my brother,

0:31:22 > 0:31:24which is good and bad.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30Hey, Rosa.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32- Yeah, you were listening in?- Yeah.

0:31:32 > 0:31:33It wouldn't help him, you know.

0:31:33 > 0:31:35I know, Eve! I'm not a child, I get it!

0:31:35 > 0:31:38He thinks his one true love is lying there in the morgue.

0:31:38 > 0:31:39He's kidding himself.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42His one true love is heroin. So, yeah,

0:31:42 > 0:31:45yeah, yeah, maybe you should get him some, cos YOU can't save him.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48Nobody can.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56YOU TRY HARDER!

0:31:56 > 0:31:59You try harder! If you loved me, you'd go.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02- I just...need you to do this for me. - All right, I will.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04You'll be back in no time.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06He sounds like a sicko though.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08I love you.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12See you later.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15I won't ask again, I swear!

0:32:26 > 0:32:28Eve, look at this.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37Penton has hep B.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41Sam, wakey-wakey.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44Here you are, look. Five sugars.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50Did you and Jason used to go to the drop-in centre together?

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Not for months, no.

0:32:52 > 0:32:54I... I don't want to run into West.

0:32:54 > 0:32:56Sorry?

0:32:56 > 0:32:57That's how I got the job.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00I met him there at the centre and...

0:33:00 > 0:33:02I started talking to Penton

0:33:02 > 0:33:04and he offered me the job.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07What, Penton was there? At the centre?

0:33:07 > 0:33:11Yeah, he visits now and again, doesn't say who he is.

0:33:11 > 0:33:12He's allowed to just...

0:33:12 > 0:33:15Drop in? Yeah.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17He funds the place.

0:33:22 > 0:33:25Hale, Penton's sicker than we thought.

0:33:25 > 0:33:26Yeah, that's what I was gonna say.

0:33:26 > 0:33:27No, with hepatitis B.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30- Is it sexually transmitted? - Not exclusively.

0:33:30 > 0:33:34Eve, come on, Jason had it, Penton's got it,

0:33:34 > 0:33:36his doctor fails to mention it.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38Oh, and the phobia - bullshit!

0:33:40 > 0:33:43You wanna know where he met Penton? Go and ask Sam.

0:33:54 > 0:33:58We know how you recruit them, or should I say "groom"?

0:33:58 > 0:34:01Nice move. Fund the drop-in centre,

0:34:01 > 0:34:04collect the vulnerable, the kids that nobody's gonna miss.

0:34:04 > 0:34:05What are you talking about?

0:34:07 > 0:34:10- He's afraid of human contact? - Yes.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14Hm, unless, of course, they're junkies, the homeless, boys...

0:34:14 > 0:34:16He makes an exception for the centre.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18What, so he can get to choose 'em?

0:34:18 > 0:34:20This... This is in your mind!

0:34:20 > 0:34:23Those visits are innocent, they're completely innocent.

0:34:23 > 0:34:28He's OK. He's eccentric, yes, but he's not like that.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32He's like a lot of rich men - he wants to give something back.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34Move amongst the poor?

0:34:34 > 0:34:36- Yeah, it makes him feel... - Good? Good!

0:34:36 > 0:34:38Yeah? Well, let's go and discuss it with him, shall we?

0:34:38 > 0:34:40Stop!

0:34:40 > 0:34:44- I've got enough to charge you both. - This is not the way it seems, I swear.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47Mr Penton never touched him.

0:34:47 > 0:34:48He never even saw the body.

0:34:48 > 0:34:49I found him.

0:34:49 > 0:34:53- You found it?- Yes, buried,

0:34:53 > 0:34:55out by the rhododendrons.

0:34:55 > 0:34:57I could see a foot sticking out.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00I did the decent thing - I buried him properly.

0:35:00 > 0:35:01Hm, the decent thing?

0:35:01 > 0:35:04The innocent thing, my friend, is to report it to the police.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07I had to protect Mr Penton's privacy.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10So who killed him?

0:35:11 > 0:35:12I would like to know.

0:35:12 > 0:35:16Somebody has driven in here in order to get rid of the body.

0:35:16 > 0:35:20The only crime I'm guilty of is failing to report it.

0:35:20 > 0:35:21You wish(!)

0:35:21 > 0:35:24Don't you go anywhere.

0:35:30 > 0:35:35Nice try, confessing to a lesser crime to appear honest. Good.

0:35:35 > 0:35:37So you're not going to give up Penton.

0:35:37 > 0:35:38The doctor might.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48Protecting Penton might be very good for your bank balance, but come on!

0:35:48 > 0:35:50You're a family man.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52It's sick what they're doing, using the centre as...

0:35:52 > 0:35:54I wish I could help you.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58Who's going to be next? Could you live with that on your conscience?

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Thank you.

0:36:02 > 0:36:03Thank you.

0:36:06 > 0:36:09And you think that's all the tree, what you can see.

0:36:10 > 0:36:13- But there's roots.- Yeah.

0:36:15 > 0:36:16Are you all right? Are you cold? Want to go back in?

0:36:20 > 0:36:22I thought...

0:36:22 > 0:36:23maybe he's all right.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26Maybe someone's took him home who, like, liked him

0:36:26 > 0:36:28and that's why... that's why he never came back.

0:36:28 > 0:36:32But he wouldn't have done that, though, would he, just left you?

0:36:32 > 0:36:34No.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37That's what I'd have done.

0:36:39 > 0:36:43Jesus, he wasn't well! He really didn't want to go, but I made him!

0:36:43 > 0:36:46He wanted to give up the gear, wanted us both to, but I wouldn't do that!

0:36:46 > 0:36:49I wouldn't even try! He would have done anything for me!

0:36:49 > 0:36:51So do it for him now.

0:36:51 > 0:36:56He was so ill. I wish he'd have seen the doctor at the centre, but he wouldn't.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59- He said he had like...like a whatsit. - A phobia.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01Yeah. I mean, he's OK., though.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04He must be a good doctor, too, because he treats Mr Penton.

0:37:04 > 0:37:05Dr Grove?

0:37:08 > 0:37:11So...they didn't know each other, he and Jason?

0:37:12 > 0:37:14But he might have seen him there?

0:37:14 > 0:37:17Not seen, seen like a doctor.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19Just laid eyes on.

0:37:21 > 0:37:22Yeah.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25Hey, one minute.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29This must be very hard for you... PHONE RINGS

0:37:29 > 0:37:30Oh, sorry.

0:37:30 > 0:37:35Because he's so alone, afraid to trust anyone but he does trust you.

0:37:35 > 0:37:36We're not blood brothers.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39It's a professional relationship, a transaction.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Without affection?

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Affection's overrated.

0:37:44 > 0:37:49In his view, Penton has sought and found other satisfactions -

0:37:49 > 0:37:53making money, building power, using it.

0:37:53 > 0:37:54Maybe that's enough. PHONE RINGS

0:37:54 > 0:37:56Hale.

0:37:56 > 0:37:59Got to take this.

0:37:59 > 0:38:03Your colleague's...very driven, fighting the good fight.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06Yeah, fighting something! HE CHUCKLES

0:38:08 > 0:38:10Maybe Penton doesn't need what we mere mortals need.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Doesn't crave the human touch.

0:38:14 > 0:38:18But sometimes the thing we...deny,

0:38:18 > 0:38:22the thing we claim to abhor, is actually our deepest desire, isn't it,

0:38:22 > 0:38:24which we try to suppress or conceal?

0:38:25 > 0:38:29Sex with a drug-addicted, disease-ridden boy.

0:38:31 > 0:38:32Fear and desire,

0:38:32 > 0:38:37a compulsion to do the forbidden, which can prove irresistible.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41You're his doctor, not his priest.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43If you knew he'd done something terrible, your duty would be...

0:38:43 > 0:38:45To betray him, yes, yes.

0:38:46 > 0:38:49But I do not have that knowledge.

0:38:49 > 0:38:50Doctor?

0:38:52 > 0:38:55Got a young man back at the facility needs medical attention.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58I wonder, do you mind coming with us to take a look at him? Won't take long.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Um, sure.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03No problem. It'll be interesting to see the place.

0:39:03 > 0:39:04Hm.

0:39:07 > 0:39:09So...

0:39:09 > 0:39:11Grove...

0:39:12 > 0:39:15..sees Jason at the drop-in centre,

0:39:15 > 0:39:18gets his number off Margot's sheet

0:39:18 > 0:39:21and then calls him,

0:39:21 > 0:39:23- picks him up...- Yeah.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25..and then delivers him to Penton.

0:39:25 > 0:39:26Maybe.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41I'll...call Mike,

0:39:41 > 0:39:43get him down here.

0:39:43 > 0:39:44HE MOUTHS

0:39:51 > 0:39:52So it really is a farm!

0:39:52 > 0:39:54Yeah, it is.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57Dr Grove, could I take your mobile phone and your car keys, please?

0:39:59 > 0:40:00Why?

0:40:00 > 0:40:04Well, we can't have you, um, stealing the worms, can we, driving off?

0:40:04 > 0:40:07No, I'm joking. It's Home Office rules, I'm afraid.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09Just while you're here.

0:40:11 > 0:40:12Lab's this way.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26CAR LOCKING BEEPS

0:40:28 > 0:40:29What do you think?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32Amazing. You'd never know it was here.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34It's humble, but we think of it as home.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36Don't look at this - very messy.

0:40:39 > 0:40:40Our latest victim.

0:40:49 > 0:40:53- So what was the cause of death? - We don't know yet, we're working on it.

0:40:53 > 0:40:56- Possible suffocation.- Poor kid.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Strange, what we become.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04- How inhuman.- Yeah.

0:41:10 > 0:41:12DR GROVE: '..at the moment, please call back later.'

0:41:22 > 0:41:25'I'm sorry, I can't take your call at the moment...'

0:41:31 > 0:41:32That's five.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34Five different hairs.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43Sam?

0:41:43 > 0:41:45Sam, the doctor's here to see you.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47OK.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56So...how are you today?

0:41:56 > 0:41:59I met you before.

0:41:59 > 0:42:00At the centre.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02Oh, right.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Could you just...lift up your shirt?

0:42:18 > 0:42:20Take a deep breath.

0:42:22 > 0:42:23And again.

0:42:23 > 0:42:26HE BREATHES DEEPLY

0:42:26 > 0:42:31Well, it, er, looks like a chest infection.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33Yeah, all that hanging about in the cold at Market Corner.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37- Do you know Market Corner? - Market Corner?

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Er, no.

0:42:40 > 0:42:41Yes.

0:42:41 > 0:42:46- They don't wear decent coats. - No. No.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49Who don't?

0:42:49 > 0:42:51Oh, the boys, the girls. Well, all young kids, really.

0:42:52 > 0:42:53Right.

0:42:53 > 0:42:57I can give you a prescription for antibiotics.

0:42:57 > 0:42:59Are you allergic to penicillin?

0:43:06 > 0:43:07Good.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10OK?

0:43:10 > 0:43:12- Yes. - I'll show you round outside.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18Biospheres.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24He sounded like the voice mail.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26Thank you, Sam.

0:43:31 > 0:43:33OK...

0:43:34 > 0:43:36This is our last hair sample.

0:43:36 > 0:43:38How are we doing with number four?

0:43:40 > 0:43:44- Anything? - Yeah, maybe...just maybe.

0:43:45 > 0:43:49COMPUTER BEEPS You were in his car.

0:43:49 > 0:43:50Brilliant.

0:43:53 > 0:43:56You're lucky to have a place like this.

0:43:57 > 0:44:01And a career that's a kind of cause...to consume you.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Don't you have that, as a doctor?

0:44:03 > 0:44:05In theory.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07But your heart's not in it?

0:44:07 > 0:44:09Who knows where your heart is?

0:44:11 > 0:44:12Yeah.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18PHONE BEEPS

0:44:18 > 0:44:21Do you like working at the drop-in centre?

0:44:22 > 0:44:26Oh, what? So you're going to say that I was concealing that from you, as well?

0:44:26 > 0:44:28Yeah.

0:44:29 > 0:44:33Right, so I should reveal every place I've ever worked,

0:44:33 > 0:44:36every patient I've ever treated,

0:44:36 > 0:44:38every thought I've ever had?

0:44:39 > 0:44:41He was in your car.

0:44:43 > 0:44:44You picked him up.

0:44:44 > 0:44:46We know you did.

0:44:50 > 0:44:52You cleaned the car, yeah?

0:44:53 > 0:44:56You missed a hair.

0:44:58 > 0:45:00YOU took him to Penton.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03What happened next?

0:45:04 > 0:45:06Did Penton kill him?

0:45:06 > 0:45:08I'm afraid you're wrong.

0:45:10 > 0:45:11He was never in my car.

0:45:14 > 0:45:15As you so rightly say,

0:45:15 > 0:45:19I work at the drop-in centre one day a week.

0:45:20 > 0:45:22That's where the boy's hair must have come from.

0:45:22 > 0:45:28Caught on my jacket, which I then put in my car.

0:45:32 > 0:45:34Reasonable doubt.

0:45:38 > 0:45:42I do need to get home. Think we could go and get my things?

0:45:45 > 0:45:46Yeah.

0:45:54 > 0:45:56You got this off the side of his freezer?

0:45:56 > 0:45:59Yeah, looked like raspberry ripple, but was in fact bloody mucus.

0:45:59 > 0:46:00Why, have you got it here?

0:46:00 > 0:46:04You can see how miscarriages of justice happen.

0:46:04 > 0:46:07- You've got a match. - One piece of evidence, misinterpreted.

0:46:14 > 0:46:15Hello?!

0:46:18 > 0:46:19You killed him.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22NO, I DIDN'T!

0:46:23 > 0:46:25His blood's in your freezer.

0:46:32 > 0:46:34You don't know how it got there?

0:46:34 > 0:46:37You called him, you picked him up.

0:46:42 > 0:46:45I didn't rape him, OK?

0:46:45 > 0:46:47It was consensual.

0:46:47 > 0:46:48Consensual?

0:46:48 > 0:46:52- OK, er, a transaction. - And killing him?

0:46:52 > 0:46:55- Was that consensual too? - It was an accident.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58I didn't mean to do it.

0:46:59 > 0:47:03I'm not...some kind of monster.

0:47:03 > 0:47:07I just...wanted him.

0:47:07 > 0:47:09I got his number from Margot's office.

0:47:12 > 0:47:14"Will he come? Will he come?"

0:47:19 > 0:47:23I could see how frail he looked, desperate.

0:47:23 > 0:47:25Don't look at me.

0:47:25 > 0:47:27You're the boss.

0:47:27 > 0:47:29Get in the back.

0:47:31 > 0:47:36I know. As a fellow human being, as a doctor...

0:47:36 > 0:47:39I should have tried to help him.

0:47:39 > 0:47:40I should have taken him to hospital.

0:47:40 > 0:47:44I should have just given him money, money for nothing.

0:47:45 > 0:47:47But I was desperate too.

0:47:49 > 0:47:50I... I couldn't help...

0:47:50 > 0:47:53(I couldn't help myself.)

0:48:09 > 0:48:10Wake up.

0:48:10 > 0:48:12You... You wanna make some money?

0:48:12 > 0:48:15Yeah? Don't look at me!

0:48:17 > 0:48:18Undo your jeans.

0:48:19 > 0:48:23- Face down. - HE COUGHS

0:48:23 > 0:48:26I don't know what I did.

0:48:28 > 0:48:30I must have, um...

0:48:31 > 0:48:33..pressed his face into the seat...

0:48:34 > 0:48:36..and, er, suffocated him.

0:48:38 > 0:48:40I was going to lose everything -

0:48:40 > 0:48:44my job, my house, m-m-my children.

0:48:44 > 0:48:46I was...

0:48:46 > 0:48:48- I was going to ruin their lives. - Nightmare(!)

0:48:56 > 0:48:57I had to get rid of the body.

0:48:59 > 0:49:03I couldn't dump it there - too many cameras, someone might see me.

0:49:05 > 0:49:07Didn't know what to do.

0:49:23 > 0:49:26We don't, er, use that freezer much.

0:49:33 > 0:49:35Told my wife I'd mislaid the key.

0:49:36 > 0:49:38Gave me time to think.

0:49:42 > 0:49:48And it, um... It struck me the next day when I was at Penton's.

0:49:50 > 0:49:52It was an ideal place to bury it.

0:49:52 > 0:49:58No dog walkers and no-one was ever going to dig it up.

0:49:58 > 0:50:02I dealt with Penton and...as I drove out,

0:50:02 > 0:50:06I stopped by the rhododendron plantation to bury it.

0:50:14 > 0:50:15I didn't do a very good job.

0:50:15 > 0:50:18But, um...

0:50:18 > 0:50:23But I-I-I just hoped, you know, that... that it would be all right.

0:50:23 > 0:50:25And then you drove away.

0:50:28 > 0:50:29How did you feel?

0:50:31 > 0:50:33- SOBBING:- Terrible.

0:50:33 > 0:50:36Terrible. Guilty.

0:50:36 > 0:50:38And relieved.

0:50:41 > 0:50:45Then West found the body, made it disappear.

0:50:47 > 0:50:50That... That's what I guessed, yes.

0:50:50 > 0:50:51PHONE RINGS

0:50:51 > 0:50:53Hello?

0:50:53 > 0:50:55'Eve, you need to come down now.'

0:50:55 > 0:50:57OK.

0:50:57 > 0:50:59- What is it?- Take a look at this.

0:51:01 > 0:51:03I've been culturing the blood and mucus samples from the freezer.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Look at the bacteria.

0:51:10 > 0:51:12It's streptococcus pneumoniae.

0:51:12 > 0:51:13He had pneumonia.

0:51:13 > 0:51:14He was critical.

0:51:14 > 0:51:17Goes suddenly from the cold night air into the hot car,

0:51:17 > 0:51:19- accelerating the process. - Lungs fill with fluid.

0:51:19 > 0:51:20And that's what killed him.

0:51:20 > 0:51:23No. No, No, no, no. Grove killed him.

0:51:23 > 0:51:27No. No, Grove thinks he killed him, but he didn't. Nobody did - he died.

0:51:27 > 0:51:28Listen...

0:51:28 > 0:51:32Listen, we have got the guy's confession.

0:51:32 > 0:51:34Come on, a jury's gonna convict him!

0:51:34 > 0:51:37- Yeah, but the evidence... - Maybe murder, at least manslaughter.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39- Yeah, but the evidence... - SHUT UP...

0:51:39 > 0:51:40(about the evidence.)

0:51:43 > 0:51:45Why did you have to find it? Was it you?

0:51:53 > 0:51:54SHE SIGHS

0:51:55 > 0:51:57All right, I'm sorry.

0:51:59 > 0:52:00Good work. Very good.

0:52:06 > 0:52:08That's amazing.

0:52:08 > 0:52:10He was dying.

0:52:11 > 0:52:15You should have taken him to hospital. You could have saved his life.

0:52:15 > 0:52:20I fear that it was already too late...unfortunately.

0:52:20 > 0:52:23Is that your expert medical opinion?

0:52:24 > 0:52:26Look, I'm not proud of what I did.

0:52:27 > 0:52:29What it does show, I think,

0:52:29 > 0:52:33is that I was experiencing some kind of mental breakdown.

0:52:33 > 0:52:35Due to stress and overwork.

0:52:35 > 0:52:38Oh, I see(!)

0:52:38 > 0:52:41So you're the innocent victim in all of this(?)

0:52:42 > 0:52:44It was a moment of madness.

0:52:44 > 0:52:46Do you think your wife will buy that?

0:52:46 > 0:52:48You know what?

0:52:48 > 0:52:51She buys a lot.

0:52:51 > 0:52:53She's very good at buying.

0:52:55 > 0:52:56So what exactly are you charging me with?

0:52:59 > 0:53:03Failure to report a death in accordance with the law.

0:53:03 > 0:53:06So I won't be held on remand?

0:53:06 > 0:53:08- I can go home?- Mm-hm.

0:53:08 > 0:53:10Today?

0:53:10 > 0:53:11Excellent.

0:53:14 > 0:53:15No harm done.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28So your evil Mr Penton's innocent.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30Of this crime.

0:53:30 > 0:53:33Yeah, apart from the sexual assault Sam invented to get a payoff.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36Yeah, took a while to get that out of him.

0:53:36 > 0:53:38Yeah, who'd have thought, a junkie lying(?)

0:53:38 > 0:53:39Amazing(!)

0:53:39 > 0:53:41Poor old Mr Penton.

0:53:41 > 0:53:45Well, I wouldn't quite go that far. Look, this, um...this now.

0:53:45 > 0:53:47- Your hands are tied?- Yeah.

0:53:47 > 0:53:49The CPS were very clear with me -

0:53:49 > 0:53:53I'm here as expert witness to verify the mechanism of death, the pneumonia,

0:53:53 > 0:53:56not to go into the circumstances.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58Both sides have agreed to keep that out of the public domain.

0:53:58 > 0:54:00So he doesn't get exposed,

0:54:00 > 0:54:02probably get a fine. Great.

0:54:02 > 0:54:05He didn't kill him, that's a fact.

0:54:05 > 0:54:08- That's a scientific truth.- Yeah.

0:54:08 > 0:54:09Not the only kind.

0:54:09 > 0:54:11I know that.

0:54:11 > 0:54:15Untreated pneumonia in its later stages causes organ failure.

0:54:15 > 0:54:18This, combined with the shock of the change in temperature

0:54:18 > 0:54:21from the cold of the streets to the warmth of Dr Grove's car,

0:54:21 > 0:54:26caused fluid to collect in the boy's lungs, preventing him from breathing

0:54:26 > 0:54:30- and precipitating his death. - When you say "the boy", you mean...?

0:54:30 > 0:54:32Jason Quinn.

0:54:32 > 0:54:35He was 18, I believe we've established, Your Honour,

0:54:35 > 0:54:37- so technically a man, yes?- Yes.

0:54:37 > 0:54:39- Who died from natural causes?- Yes.

0:54:39 > 0:54:42Thank you. I have no further questions.

0:54:42 > 0:54:43MAN COUGHS

0:54:44 > 0:54:46Thank you, you may go.

0:54:57 > 0:54:59DOOR OPENS

0:55:15 > 0:55:18Your Honour, before I go, I thought that the court should know,

0:55:18 > 0:55:22that the public should know, that those who knew Jason Quinn should know

0:55:22 > 0:55:23- the circumstances of his d...- No!

0:55:23 > 0:55:26- We've agreed...- Er, excuse me!

0:55:26 > 0:55:30I do beg your pardon, Your Honour, but both myself

0:55:30 > 0:55:32and my opposite have agreed not to, er...

0:55:32 > 0:55:35- expose...- Expose what?

0:55:35 > 0:55:37The truth. The truth is

0:55:37 > 0:55:41that Dr Thomas Grove took Jason Quinn into his car for one purpose only -

0:55:41 > 0:55:44his own sexual gratification.

0:55:44 > 0:55:47He saw that he was seriously ill and he didn't care.

0:55:47 > 0:55:50Even in that state, he exploited him,

0:55:50 > 0:55:53and that's how Jason Quinn died,

0:55:53 > 0:55:57in that man's hands. This was the opposite of charity,

0:55:57 > 0:56:01the opposite of compassion and the opposite of what is right.

0:56:02 > 0:56:03Thank you.

0:56:09 > 0:56:11HE CLEARS THROAT Thanks.

0:56:14 > 0:56:16Mr Penton.

0:56:16 > 0:56:19Always knew I'd see you in court.

0:56:19 > 0:56:20Well done, you.

0:56:20 > 0:56:25When I think I was sending him to work with the children at the charity...

0:56:25 > 0:56:28Inviting the fox into your henhouse.

0:56:28 > 0:56:29Exactly.

0:56:29 > 0:56:32A narrow escape.

0:56:33 > 0:56:35A stranger to himself.

0:56:35 > 0:56:38You should thank me.

0:56:38 > 0:56:41Failure to report a dead body. I could have charged you.

0:56:41 > 0:56:43Thanks.

0:56:43 > 0:56:44No problem.

0:56:46 > 0:56:47Mr Penton.

0:56:49 > 0:56:52I'm...sorry for what I did.

0:56:55 > 0:56:58I'm so sorry for your loss.

0:57:01 > 0:57:04There we go. Come on.

0:57:04 > 0:57:07Wasn't so bad, was it?

0:57:10 > 0:57:12DOOR SLAMS

0:57:23 > 0:57:26If, in the end, all we are given is release,

0:57:26 > 0:57:31to be no longer consumed by what we lack,

0:57:31 > 0:57:33then that must be our consolation...

0:57:35 > 0:57:38..and a kind of mercy.

0:57:40 > 0:57:42Connor Ryan, recovered dead from the water.

0:57:42 > 0:57:45Turns out it was skippered by a Patsy Fay, who's banned

0:57:45 > 0:57:47because of a previous for drug smuggling.

0:57:47 > 0:57:49- What the hell happened out there? - Is she not on the boat?

0:57:49 > 0:57:50No.

0:57:50 > 0:57:53- Mermaids, yeah? - Selkies, Irish mermaids.- Ah!

0:57:53 > 0:57:55He's terrified his mum is going to go back to prison

0:57:55 > 0:57:57and now it seems we're going to connect her to a crime.

0:57:57 > 0:57:59- Mum!- Feels like we're tearing him to shreds.
