0:00:07 > 0:00:09- Wahey! - CHILDREN CHEERING
0:00:09 > 0:00:12# Oh...I do like to be beside the seaside... #
0:00:12 > 0:00:14Judy?
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Hey, hey... Oh, there you are! Now, look after the baby.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19I tell you what, teach him to walk.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21He's not very good at walking yet, you see, boys and girls.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24- CHILDREN: Oh!- So, that'll keep them both out of mischief, won't it?
0:00:24 > 0:00:26All right, you, get on with it.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28MR PUNCH MUTTERS
0:00:28 > 0:00:31Left, right! Left, right! Left, right! Left, right!
0:00:31 > 0:00:32LAUGHTER
0:00:32 > 0:00:34- Whey! - APPLAUSE
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Oh, what a clever boy!
0:00:37 > 0:00:39As the new mayor of this town,
0:00:39 > 0:00:41I have a very wide remit,
0:00:41 > 0:00:46but one of my pet hates is enviro-crime -
0:00:46 > 0:00:52namely, fly-tipping, vandalism and litter.
0:00:52 > 0:00:57On-the-spot fines of up to £100 have been introduced for anyone
0:00:57 > 0:01:01failing to dispose of their litter in an appropriate fashion.
0:01:01 > 0:01:05And what's more, I will be leading the way.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Alan...
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Let's be proud of this beautiful town of ours.
0:01:16 > 0:01:22After all, it is Lighthaven, not Litterhaven.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- FROM STAGE:- Ow! Oh!
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Get off!
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Oh! Oh! You wicked...
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Excuse me...
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Oh! Get off! Get off!
0:01:38 > 0:01:41I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen, the performance has been cancelled.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43- CHILDREN: Boo! - Sorry, stop it!
0:01:43 > 0:01:46If you give your details to my assistant, Alan,
0:01:46 > 0:01:47I'm sure you'll get a full refund.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- What...what are you doing?! - CHILD CRIES
0:01:50 > 0:01:51My job.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Your job, is it, to make children cry?
0:01:53 > 0:01:55I hope you're proud of yourself!
0:01:55 > 0:01:57SHE GRUNTS
0:02:01 > 0:02:03No, no pictures. Alan, Alan...
0:02:03 > 0:02:05I said, no photos!
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Madam Mayor...Jane Kennedy, coroner.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45How can I help?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49Er...I believe you closed down Harry Putman's show yesterday afternoon.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51What exactly did you say to him?
0:02:51 > 0:02:52Not a great deal.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53There wasn't a lot to say.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56He knew he didn't have a leg to stand on.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57Excuse me?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00On many an occasion, I've asked Mr Putman -
0:03:00 > 0:03:04Harry, as you call him - to update his act.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I explained to him that Mr Punch doesn't need
0:03:06 > 0:03:09to beat his wife with a stick,
0:03:09 > 0:03:10but he just wouldn't listen.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13But did you spell it out to him that if he failed to comply,
0:03:13 > 0:03:15you would put him out of business?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Let's not get this out of perspective.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23Revoking the wretched man's ability to perform in Lighthaven
0:03:23 > 0:03:25was hardly going to put him out of business.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26I'll take that as a no then.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28There are resorts up and down the country
0:03:28 > 0:03:30that would have welcomed him with open arms.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Nonetheless, Harry lived here.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33This was his home.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35It's my home too, Ms Kennedy.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37I believe in this town.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I have big plans for its future.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44But any show that invites children to laugh at domestic abuse
0:03:44 > 0:03:46belongs firmly in the past.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Now...if you will excuse me,
0:03:51 > 0:03:54I have to meet my daughter in...precisely two minutes.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02I'm aware that in a conservative town like ours,
0:04:02 > 0:04:04people are bound to take sides.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09Mr Putman has been the Punch & Judy man in this town for 40 years.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11I've only been mayor for, what...two months?
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Quite an achievement, though.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Thank you.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17I was talking about Mr Putman.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- May I ask you something? - Can I stop you?
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Of all the things in this town that need changing,
0:04:23 > 0:04:25why focus on Punch & Judy?
0:04:25 > 0:04:26Happy now, are you?!
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Now you've hounded an old man to his death!
0:04:30 > 0:04:34Go away, before I have you reported for drinking in public.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36You practically murdered Harry!
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Stamped him out like he was some kind of bug!
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Well, you better watch out, Your Worship,
0:04:43 > 0:04:46cos one of these days, someone might stamp on you!
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Alan...
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Get off me, you idiot!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56I see your mum's causing trouble again.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57So, what else is new?
0:04:59 > 0:05:00See you next weekend, Dad.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01Yeah. Take care, sweetheart...
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Friend of yours?
0:05:10 > 0:05:11My husband.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14We're separated,
0:05:14 > 0:05:16not that it's any of your business.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19What was that all about?
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Oh, just a drunk. Ignore him.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24You're late.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Madam Mayor, you still haven't answered my question.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Drink this. It'll help sober you up.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45I see you're looking after Harry's props.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Yeah, his son asked me to find a good home for them.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Were you and Harry close?
0:05:51 > 0:05:52We looked out for each other.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55He was good for business.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58See...as long as there's Punch & Judy,
0:05:58 > 0:06:00there'll always be a need for deckchairs.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04In your opinion, do you think it's conceivable
0:06:04 > 0:06:06he could have taken his own life?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09No. Not a chance. He wasn't that type.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11I'm not saying that he wasn't fed up. Who wouldn't be?
0:06:11 > 0:06:15A lifetime of entertaining people, only to be nobbled by some
0:06:15 > 0:06:19jumped-up busybody who hasn't been in the job for five minutes!
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Are you still at it?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24I've received a complaint about you, John.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Drunk and disorderly.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29Not to mention, behaviour likely to cause a breach of the peace.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31So, arrest me. It'll be just like old times.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35I'd rather you sobered up and stopped threatening public figures.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37All right, I'll do my best, Davey boy.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Glad to hear it.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Thanks for your time, Mr Holland.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42That's all right, my love.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58Thanks.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Maybe I should introduce myself.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18My name's Hannah and I've got reason to believe that,
0:07:18 > 0:07:2118 years ago, you gave birth to me.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Darling, I'm sorry if you feel neglected
0:07:23 > 0:07:27but...I've got a lot to do and only a year to do it in.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Only last night, Councillor Jeffries assured me,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31and he was being perfectly serious,
0:07:31 > 0:07:34that we don't need a Pride Festival here in Lighthaven.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37So, that's who you were with until four in the morning, Councillor Jeffries.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Well...I'm here now.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46So...let's make the most of it, shall we?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I thought we could try that new wine bar later.
0:07:48 > 0:07:49All cocktails are half price.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53Hannah, darling, I can't. I've got a meeting this evening.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Well, can't you cancel it? I thought we could catch up.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Sorry, darling.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Urgent council business.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08Give it to me, Your Worship...
0:08:08 > 0:08:10MAYOR LAUGHS
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Oh!
0:08:11 > 0:08:12SHE LAUGHS
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Oh... Oh-ho-ho...
0:08:18 > 0:08:19SHE LAUGHS
0:08:22 > 0:08:24THEY MOAN
0:08:27 > 0:08:29SHE MOANS
0:08:29 > 0:08:30SHE LAUGHS
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Hi, it's me.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Um...just wondering where you are.
0:08:53 > 0:08:54Hope all's well.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Give me a call when you get this.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11People get the wrong idea about Mr Punch.
0:09:12 > 0:09:13He's not a bully.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16He's a freedom fighter...
0:09:17 > 0:09:19..battling oppression.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24The real bullies are his wife and the constable.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Oh, yeah? Then how come he throws out the baby?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30That's an accident.
0:09:30 > 0:09:31It doesn't count.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Not sure the mothers down the women's refuge would see it that way.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36PHONE RINGS
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Oh, damn...
0:09:38 > 0:09:39Don't answer it.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41It's Davey. It might be important.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Hello?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Yes, I know who this is.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49OK. I'll be there in ten minutes.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51What's happened?
0:09:51 > 0:09:53They found a body at the Grand Hotel.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Keep an eye on the curry.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Any ID on the deceased?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- Oh, didn't I mention that? - Mention what?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- It's the mayor.- Our mayor?
0:10:11 > 0:10:13The mayor I was talking to this afternoon?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Yeah...I think it's fair to say she's no longer in office.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Are we sure it's her?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Yeah, positive.
0:10:21 > 0:10:22Looks like Mr Punch got his own back.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24I was just thinking the same thing.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28We think the murder weapon was a champagne bottle.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31It seems Una and Danny Ball had themselves a little party.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Who's Danny Ball?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35He's the hotel's resident crooner.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37It was a regular thing, apparently.
0:10:38 > 0:10:39Yeah...
0:10:39 > 0:10:43This is the 999 message she tried to make at 7.18.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47MAYOR CRYING
0:10:47 > 0:10:50And by the time we'd traced the call,
0:10:50 > 0:10:52the body had already been found.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Where's this singer? I need to talk to him.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55No, you don't.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You need to get in line.
0:10:57 > 0:10:58It's a murder inquiry.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Do you need a moment, Mr Drake?- No.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17No, that's her.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21That's my girl.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28- Are you all right?- OK...
0:11:35 > 0:11:38You say she was found at the Grand Hotel?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Er...yeah, that's correct.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45I don't understand. Una lives in town with my daughter.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Why would she want a hotel room?
0:11:49 > 0:11:51I'm afraid I can't disclose that information.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Ah...
0:11:55 > 0:11:56I'm sorry.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Well, at least I know why she stood me up.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02I'm sorry?
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Una and I were supposed to be having dinner together last night.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09That would explain the messages you left on your wife's voicemail.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Can I ask which restaurant it was?
0:12:14 > 0:12:15The Handsome Crab.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18And what time did you get there?
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Um...about 6:55.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26- And who booked the table?- Una.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30And what time did you leave, roughly?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Ten past eight... There or thereabouts.
0:12:37 > 0:12:38Right. Much obliged.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44A family liaison officer will be in touch with you.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47And I'll... I'll let you know as soon as we have any news.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49I'm sorry, Mr Drake.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Actually, I was wondering if you'd mind coming over some time,
0:12:55 > 0:12:57to talk to Hannah about what happened?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Not at all. I'd be happy to.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Maybe...I'm old-fashioned but I...
0:13:04 > 0:13:06I think some things are better coming from a woman.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09I'll give you a minute.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Danny Ball.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21And what exactly was the nature of your relationship with the mayor?
0:13:22 > 0:13:23NSA.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26As in the National Sheep Association?
0:13:27 > 0:13:29As in No Strings Attached.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Did she pay you?
0:13:31 > 0:13:32What do you take me for?
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Well, I'd have thought that was obvious.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40THEY WHISPER
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Looks like we've replaced Punch & Judy with The Sooty Show.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46No. She didn't pay me.
0:13:46 > 0:13:47Oh...
0:13:47 > 0:13:51A witness in the next room said they heard a woman yelling.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52Would you care to comment?
0:13:52 > 0:13:54In the heat of the moment,
0:13:54 > 0:13:59Una tended to get quite vocal...if you catch my drift.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05And at...6:55, when you left the room...
0:14:07 > 0:14:08..how did Ms Drake seem?
0:14:10 > 0:14:11Just happy.
0:14:12 > 0:14:13Just...relaxed.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16I'd even say grateful.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22Well, his alibi checks out.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24He was on stage at the time.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27No blood on his clothes or his body. No previous.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Wanted for crimes against music but that's about it.
0:14:30 > 0:14:31Don't like him, then?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Never trust a man whose hair looks like a wig.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35Do you think Una was in love with him?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Doubt it.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39She was just using him for sex.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42All pretty sordid, if you ask me.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44What? Because she's a woman?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46No, cos she's set herself up as the guardian of public morals.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48I mean, talk about double standards.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- What about your double standards?- Eh?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53A man uses a woman for sex, all his mates pat him on the back.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55A woman behaves the same way and suddenly it's sordid.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Blimey, you're even beginning to sound like the mayor. I don't know why this bothers you.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01It's police business.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02Yes, but...
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Una's death may be linked to my ongoing investigation
0:15:04 > 0:15:07into old Harry's drowning.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Hey, I told you about this before.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10The coconut ones are mine.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Sorry. Sorry.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Calamity...
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Thanks for coming.
0:15:52 > 0:15:53- Hannah's in the kitchen.- OK.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04Dad would never hear a bad word said about her.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Not even when she walked out on him.
0:16:06 > 0:16:07When was that?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10About 18 months ago.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11Just after she got elected to the council.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Dad acted like it was his fault for not being interesting enough but...
0:16:16 > 0:16:18that's him all over.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Well...as marriage splits go,
0:16:21 > 0:16:23it all sounds fairly amicable.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24I guess.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27I wasn't around much at the time.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29I'd just turned 16 - too busy partying.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34I think they drifted apart because Mum was ambitious
0:16:34 > 0:16:37and Dad, well, prefers the simple life.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42His idea of success is winning a prize at the annual apple festival.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47I loved her, don't get me wrong, but...
0:16:49 > 0:16:51..you met her.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53You must have seen what she was like.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Hannah, apart from the Punch & Judy man,
0:16:59 > 0:17:01did your mum have any other enemies?
0:17:02 > 0:17:03Hundreds.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Right, John...there you go.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16No charge.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23So...yesterday evening, between seven and eight, where were you?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Er...drunk.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Drunk is not a location.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30It is when you're as drunk as I was!
0:17:30 > 0:17:33John, either you start taking this seriously or I'm going to charge
0:17:33 > 0:17:35you with obstruction and make the rest up as I go along.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36Take what seriously?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38I don't even know what I'm supposed to have done!
0:17:38 > 0:17:41No-one's accusing you of anything...yet.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Despite the fact that you're a known offender
0:17:43 > 0:17:45with a history of violent assaults,
0:17:45 > 0:17:48and yesterday afternoon, you threatened the mayor in front of witnesses.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Yeah, well, she had that coming. - Well, someone obviously thought so,
0:17:51 > 0:17:54because shortly after your little outburst, she was found dead.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57This is a joke, right?
0:17:58 > 0:17:59Do you see me laughing?
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Yes! Oh, yes!
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Oh, there is a God! Yes!
0:18:02 > 0:18:04John... All right, John, John, sit down.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Now, where were you?
0:18:08 > 0:18:09I can't remember!
0:18:09 > 0:18:13All I can tell you is, I woke up in my hut at seven o'clock this morning
0:18:13 > 0:18:16with the worst hangover I've had in years...but, eh,
0:18:16 > 0:18:18it's not all bad news.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21The Wicked Witch is dead! That's karma, that's what that is!
0:18:21 > 0:18:22All right...
0:18:24 > 0:18:26On your way.
0:18:26 > 0:18:27HE LAUGHS
0:18:31 > 0:18:33All right, Johnny boy?!
0:18:37 > 0:18:39# Gold, gold...
0:18:39 > 0:18:42# Always believe in your soul
0:18:42 > 0:18:45# You've got the power to know
0:18:45 > 0:18:47# You're indestructible
0:18:47 > 0:18:49# Always believing... #
0:18:49 > 0:18:51FEEDBACK
0:18:51 > 0:18:52# Gold
0:18:52 > 0:18:55# Glad that you're bound to return
0:18:55 > 0:18:58# Something I should have learned
0:18:58 > 0:19:00# You're indestructible
0:19:00 > 0:19:05# Always believing... #
0:19:05 > 0:19:08STRUGGLES TO HOLD NOTE
0:19:10 > 0:19:11- OUT OF BREATH:- Gold!
0:19:13 > 0:19:16APPLAUSE
0:19:20 > 0:19:22- OUT OF BREATH:- Thank you!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24We're now going to take a short break but...don't go anywhere.
0:19:43 > 0:19:44Mr Ball.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46I was wondering if you'd mind answering a few questions?
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Oh...
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Officer, please...I've already spoken to you guys.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52I'm not the police.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Jane Kennedy, coroner.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Then we'd best have a drink.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03I'm investigating the death of Harold Putman.
0:20:04 > 0:20:05The Punch & Judy man?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Oh, yeah. Una was a bit upset about that.
0:20:10 > 0:20:11Oh?
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Yeah. She thought it might damage her popularity.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17All heart, was old Una.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- You obviously liked her.- Yeah...
0:20:23 > 0:20:28Mmm...I just wish me and Una had parted on better terms, that's all.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30Was there some sort of disagreement?
0:20:30 > 0:20:32Hmm, more like a blazing row.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35About the Punch & Judy man?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37About my career.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39I've had this great idea for an album, see...
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Having A Ball With Danny Ball.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45But, I just need a backer to pay for some studio time.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47And you asked Una?
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Mmm...even bought her a bottle of bubbly to sweeten her up.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51And guess what she told me.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55That it'd be a waste of money cos I'm not much of a singer.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58That...if I had what it takes, I would've made it by now!
0:20:58 > 0:20:59And what did you say?
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Well, I went ballistic.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03I mean, you've heard me...
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Would you say I've got a voice?
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Oh, yeah...it's definitely a voice.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Well...thanks for your time, Mr Ball.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18You know, for your age...
0:21:20 > 0:21:22..you really are a fine-looking lady.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Has anyone ever told you that before?
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Funnily enough, just men like you.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52- As bad as that, is it?- Hey.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55Yeah...
0:21:57 > 0:22:00I don't think the deckchair man's got anything to do with it.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02The fact that he hated the mayor is not enough to hold him.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04I may as well arrest myself.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06And Gavin Drake's alibi is rock solid -
0:22:06 > 0:22:08he was in a restaurant the whole time.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11He could have arranged for someone else to kill Una.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Yeah, I did think of that so I ran a check on the Drakes' finances
0:22:14 > 0:22:17to see if Gavin had anything to gain from his wife's death but...
0:22:17 > 0:22:19it turns out the house, the farm,
0:22:19 > 0:22:21everything that went with it was in his name.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24When Una left, she wouldn't take a penny from him.
0:22:24 > 0:22:25A proud woman.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Yeah, a very annoying woman.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29As unhelpful in death as she was in life.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31- No joy from forensics?- No...
0:22:32 > 0:22:34The only DNA on the champagne bottle belonged to the victim.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Well, if it's any consolation, Danny Ball has been hiding something.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42Yeah, what's that? It really is a wig?
0:22:43 > 0:22:48He and Una, they had a blazing row just before she was killed.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00All right, I love you!
0:23:00 > 0:23:01CAR ACCELERATES
0:23:01 > 0:23:03TYRES SCREECH
0:23:03 > 0:23:04HE SCREAMS
0:23:09 > 0:23:11POLICE SIREN BLARES
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Let's step you out of the car!
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Get off me!
0:23:20 > 0:23:21You should be arresting him, not me!
0:23:21 > 0:23:23He killed my mother! You're a murderer!
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Easy, easy, easy.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Right, you're under arrest. Do you understand?
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Why did you run him over?
0:23:31 > 0:23:32I didn't.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34He stepped in front of my car.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Oh, you just happened to be driving through the hotel car park
0:23:36 > 0:23:37and there he was?
0:23:39 > 0:23:42Now, your mum kept her relationship with Mr Ball under wraps
0:23:42 > 0:23:44and we've been careful not to release his name to the public,
0:23:44 > 0:23:47so why would you even be aware of his existence?
0:23:47 > 0:23:48Why don't you ask him?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Because I'd rather hear it from you.
0:23:52 > 0:23:53DANNY GROANS
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Why did the mayor's daughter attack you?
0:23:55 > 0:23:59- Oh, is that who it was?- Danny...
0:23:59 > 0:24:03If you persist in lying, you're only going to get yourself in deeper and deeper trouble.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06I haven't lied - not exactly.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Just haven't told the truth, that's all.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13More to the point, what has any of this got to do with Punch & Judy?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15I don't know yet.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18I dated Hannah last Christmas.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Nice girl, but a bit too keen for my liking.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26We'd only known each other a week and she invited me for Sunday lunch.
0:24:26 > 0:24:27Is that when you first met Una?
0:24:27 > 0:24:29- HE LAUGHS - Yeah...
0:24:30 > 0:24:31It was lust at first sight.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35I ended it with Hannah the very next day.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38Yes, please, Nurse.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44Thank you.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46You were saying?
0:24:47 > 0:24:50A few days later, her mum turned up at the hotel...
0:24:51 > 0:24:52Told me she wanted me.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Her sole condition being that Hannah must never find out.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02God, what a mess.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06What am I going to do now?
0:25:06 > 0:25:08You're worried Hannah will incriminate you?
0:25:08 > 0:25:11No. No!
0:25:11 > 0:25:14I mean, what are my fans going to say when they see me like this?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Goodbye, Danny.
0:25:17 > 0:25:18HE INHALES
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I'm going to ask you again.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23How did you find out?
0:25:29 > 0:25:32A friend from college said she'd seen Mum and Danny
0:25:32 > 0:25:33together in the hotel bar.
0:25:36 > 0:25:37I didn't believe her.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41So, I checked Mum's phone when she was in the shower.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44And there were the texts,
0:25:44 > 0:25:46all the things she wanted to do to him
0:25:46 > 0:25:48and all the things he wanted to do to her.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51I'm sorry.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Did you challenge her about it?
0:25:56 > 0:25:57I was going to...
0:25:57 > 0:25:59on the night she died.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02But she made an excuse.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Went off to see Danny instead.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07- So, you felt like she had betrayed you?- She DID betray me.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10You hated her. You wanted her dead. Is that what you're telling me, Hannah?
0:26:13 > 0:26:14Yeah.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15You admit it, then?
0:26:15 > 0:26:17- I just said so, didn't I?- Good.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Now we're getting somewhere.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23What time did you go to the hotel?
0:26:23 > 0:26:25I don't understand the question.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Oh, come on, don't play games with me.- I'm not!
0:26:30 > 0:26:32All right...
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Well, maybe this will jog your memory.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44No... No, no, no, no!
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Hannah! Hannah!
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Get some help, please. Hannah!
0:26:47 > 0:26:48SHE CRIES UNCONTROLLABLY
0:26:48 > 0:26:51ALARM SOUNDS
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Well, obviously she went to the hotel.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57What if she didn't?
0:26:57 > 0:27:01If you ask me, a girl who runs her ex-boyfriend over with a car is capable of anything,
0:27:01 > 0:27:03unless you think the mayor was murdered twice?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05So, listen, why don't you do us both a favour?
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Go home, put your feet up, pour a nice glass of red wine
0:27:07 > 0:27:10and drink to the fact that I can and I have, just this once,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13managed to wrap up a murder inquiry without your help.
0:27:24 > 0:27:25I know he wasn't serious but...
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- ..maybe Davey had a point. - What about?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Maybe there were two killers...
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Two separate murder attempts.
0:27:39 > 0:27:40How do you reckon that?
0:27:42 > 0:27:46According to this, the injuries to Una's brain were so severe,
0:27:46 > 0:27:48death would have been instantaneous.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Instantaneous meaning she would have had no time to make phone calls.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55So, surely that means she received the head injuries
0:27:55 > 0:27:56after she passed out?
0:27:57 > 0:28:01So, what if Hannah gets the ball rolling, puts her mum out of action?
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Then someone else comes into the hotel room,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07- sees the mayor lying there and... - But who, though?
0:28:10 > 0:28:12No, you're right...
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Without a name or a motive, we're no further on.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Funny...
0:28:21 > 0:28:22- I never noticed that before.- What?
0:28:24 > 0:28:25Looks like she had a nose job.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Before and after.
0:28:31 > 0:28:35- There is nothing wrong with that nose.- I agree.
0:28:36 > 0:28:37So, why change it?
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Might've got knocked out of shape.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43We all know she was a...pain in the bum.
0:28:43 > 0:28:44Someone could have punched her.
0:28:46 > 0:28:47Punch...
0:28:55 > 0:28:57PHONE RINGS
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Hi...
0:29:01 > 0:29:02Dr Sharp?
0:29:02 > 0:29:03Thanks for getting back.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06I just wondered if there was an update on Hannah Drake?
0:29:08 > 0:29:11So, she's not well enough to be interviewed yet, no?
0:29:12 > 0:29:14No, no, no, it's all right.
0:29:14 > 0:29:15That's all I wanted to know.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Thanks.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24- Well?- Looks like you were right.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Una made two visits to A & E last year.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29The first was in late May.
0:29:29 > 0:29:34"Multiple contusions to back and shoulders caused by a fall down stairs."
0:29:34 > 0:29:37Just two weeks after her election to town council.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40Her next visit - 2nd June...
0:29:40 > 0:29:45"Broken nose and dislocated right shoulder - patient slipped in bath."
0:29:45 > 0:29:46Hmm...likely story.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49And listen to this, the very next day, she leaves her husband.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52A week later, she books herself into a private clinic
0:29:52 > 0:29:54and gets a new conk.
0:29:55 > 0:29:56Good work. Well done.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Unfortunately, it still leaves us with a major problem.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02Of all the suspects, Gavin Drake is the only one with an alibi.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06At the time of the murder, he was sat here at a table booked by his wife.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08I wonder what made her choose this place?
0:30:08 > 0:30:10Well, I'm guessing the fact it's only a minute from the hotel
0:30:10 > 0:30:12had something to do with it.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13Plus, the food's meant to be good.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17Yeah! I'm surprised anyone's ever lived long enough to find out.
0:30:17 > 0:30:18What do you mean?
0:30:18 > 0:30:20I came here with a girl once...
0:30:20 > 0:30:22They usually wait till I've settled the bill
0:30:22 > 0:30:24before they tell me they only want me as a friend.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27But that night, the service was so bad,
0:30:27 > 0:30:30I got dumped before we'd even ordered.
0:30:35 > 0:30:36Catch you later.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38Hang on, I thought you were paying?
0:30:40 > 0:30:41So, what does this prove?
0:30:41 > 0:30:42Well, it all fits.
0:30:42 > 0:30:46No wonder she didn't like Punch & Judy. She was living with a real life Mr Punch.
0:30:46 > 0:30:47Well, then why didn't she report it?
0:30:47 > 0:30:50Maybe she didn't want to be seen as a victim.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52No. What you've got there is purely circumstantial.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54Yes, but as you're always pointing out,
0:30:54 > 0:30:57the majority of convictions are supported on the basis of circumstantial evidence.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00That doesn't even prove she was attacked, let alone by her husband.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04Besides, you put Gavin Drake in the ring with Una and my money's on the mayor every time.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07- Surely we should at least talk to him?- You talk to him. I'm busy.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09I'm finally going to get to interview his daughter.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12You know, the person that actually committed the crime.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23OPERA MUSIC Hello?
0:31:24 > 0:31:25Hello?
0:31:28 > 0:31:29Gavin...
0:31:31 > 0:31:33- God, woman...- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Don't creep up on people like that.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38I didn't mean to. Are you all right?
0:31:39 > 0:31:41You nearly gave me a heart attack.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44For a moment, I thought you were Una come back to haunt me.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49- Actually...it was Una I wanted to talk to you about.- Hmm?
0:31:51 > 0:31:55I know it's...none of my business but I just...
0:31:55 > 0:31:56I wondered why you separated?
0:31:57 > 0:31:58It was a tough time.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03Una started putting her career before her family.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06I thought I was losing her.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08I...panicked...
0:32:11 > 0:32:13Turns out I have abandonment issues.
0:32:13 > 0:32:17- There's a therapist's phrase if ever I heard one.- Yeah...
0:32:17 > 0:32:19It was Una's idea.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22She said the marriage wasn't over, just on hold.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24Promised that if I went to counselling,
0:32:24 > 0:32:27sorted my head out, there might be a way back for us.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29And you took her at her word.
0:32:30 > 0:32:31I had no choice.
0:32:33 > 0:32:34I loved her.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Now, if you don't mind, I'm sort of busy.
0:32:39 > 0:32:40Of course. Sorry.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43I'm sorry. That sounded rude.
0:32:43 > 0:32:45It's just I'm expecting my daughter any moment.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48- Haven't you heard?- Heard what?
0:32:48 > 0:32:50Hannah's been arrested.
0:32:50 > 0:32:51Ow!
0:33:01 > 0:33:04How are you feeling?
0:33:04 > 0:33:05You're the detective.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07How do you think I'm feeling?
0:33:08 > 0:33:11Whilst the doctors were assessing you, I did some homework.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15I reread the forensic pathologist's report
0:33:15 > 0:33:19and I found evidence of a thing called...laryngeal oedema.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21You know what that is?
0:33:21 > 0:33:25No? It's a well-known symptom of anaphylactic shock.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Was your mum allergic to anything, Hannah?
0:33:30 > 0:33:31The truth.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36She was allergic to crustaceans.
0:33:36 > 0:33:37Crab, lobster, prawn...
0:33:38 > 0:33:40But I get the feeling you already knew that.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42You know, you're right.
0:33:42 > 0:33:46So, I went back to your mum's house and I searched your bedroom
0:33:46 > 0:33:48and I found these on top of the wardrobe.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52I'm showing the suspect Exhibit A and Exhibit B.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57Now, my guess is you took these out of your mum's bag at the cafe
0:33:57 > 0:34:00at about the same time you poisoned her food.
0:34:00 > 0:34:01Would that be right?
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Why don't you tell me what happened?
0:34:08 > 0:34:12Mum went to the counter to complain that her tea was too weak.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14She was always complaining about something.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17As soon as her back was turned,
0:34:17 > 0:34:19I smeared a bit of prawn on one of her scones.
0:34:21 > 0:34:22- And then what happened?- Nothing.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26It wasn't likely to. She suffered from EIA.
0:34:27 > 0:34:28Come again?
0:34:28 > 0:34:30Exercise-induced anaphylaxis.
0:34:32 > 0:34:37Mum could eat something that had been contaminated and, at first, there'd be no reaction.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41The choking and shortness of breath only kicked in after exercise.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44And, of course, you knew she'd soon be at that hotel...
0:34:45 > 0:34:46..exercising.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- I'm sorry. I assumed Hannah would have called to let you know.- No.
0:34:52 > 0:34:57I don't know any details, just that she has admitted to killing her mum.
0:34:57 > 0:34:58No. It's impossible.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00You seem very certain.
0:35:00 > 0:35:01I know my own daughter, OK?
0:35:03 > 0:35:05They must have tricked her, forced a confession.
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Hannah had nothing to do with it.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08I see you're still wearing your wedding ring.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10What about it?
0:35:10 > 0:35:11No, nothing, just...
0:35:13 > 0:35:15When I met Una, she wasn't wearing hers and yet...
0:35:16 > 0:35:19..in that photograph, taken just 24 hours previously, there it is.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22It's odd, don't you think?
0:35:22 > 0:35:24As if she deliberately removed her wedding ring
0:35:24 > 0:35:27on the day that she arranged to meet you.
0:35:27 > 0:35:28I can't say I noticed.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32- Care to join me?- No, I'm driving.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34Go on...
0:35:34 > 0:35:36It's my own home-made scrumpy.
0:35:36 > 0:35:37Lovely stuff.
0:35:38 > 0:35:39OK, maybe just a little.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47- Thanks.- Cheers.- Cheers.
0:35:58 > 0:35:59OK...
0:36:00 > 0:36:02I'll admit I knew something was going on.
0:36:03 > 0:36:04So I followed her.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07Stupid, I know, but...
0:36:07 > 0:36:10that's what jealousy does to you...
0:36:10 > 0:36:13Eats away at you until you simply have to know the worst.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20You do realise what you've admitted to?
0:36:20 > 0:36:22She was my mum, for God's sake!
0:36:23 > 0:36:25She was supposed to love me and take care of me.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29I thought Danny would phone an ambulance.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32I didn't know he'd be on stage when it happened.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34So, you didn't mean to kill your mother?
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- Is that what you're telling me? - Yeah.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40Hannah, for someone who didn't mean to kill their mother, you did a pretty good job.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44- Those head injuries? They're among the worst I've ever seen.- That wasn't me.- Hannah, come on.
0:36:44 > 0:36:45No, look!
0:36:46 > 0:36:48Those pictures...
0:36:50 > 0:36:51I don't know who did that to her.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55All I know is, I had nothing to do with it.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03I saw her at the hotel with that...
0:37:03 > 0:37:05X Factor reject.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08I kept my distance, didn't want to make a scene.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13I thought that could wait till dinner, when I got her all to myself.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17But then she didn't even bother to turn up.
0:37:20 > 0:37:24There was me thinking she wanted to build bridges.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27When in fact, she was probably going to ask you for a divorce.
0:37:29 > 0:37:30I know.
0:37:32 > 0:37:33Why couldn't I see that?
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Like a little kid sometimes...
0:37:38 > 0:37:39Too trusting.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43Spent a fortune in counselling.
0:37:45 > 0:37:46"How are we feeling today, Gavin?"
0:37:47 > 0:37:49All the time, she was just stringing me along.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52The night it ended said it all, me...
0:37:52 > 0:37:55waiting at that restaurant like a lemon
0:37:55 > 0:37:57while she's living it up, drinking cham...
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Drinking champagne?
0:38:03 > 0:38:05What makes you think she was drinking champagne?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14You were in a lot of pain, Gavin.
0:38:18 > 0:38:19SEAGULLS CRY
0:38:19 > 0:38:22When she didn't show at the restaurant, I think you...
0:38:23 > 0:38:25..you went to go and find her.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30DANNY HUMS
0:38:30 > 0:38:33When you got to the hotel, you discovered the reason she'd been detained.
0:38:36 > 0:38:41# Do you really want to hurt me?
0:38:41 > 0:38:43# Do you really want to... #
0:38:43 > 0:38:44I imagine you...
0:38:44 > 0:38:47even considered going home...
0:38:47 > 0:38:49forgetting all about her.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53# Lovers never ask you why... #
0:38:53 > 0:38:55The urge was too strong.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01I doubt you could help yourself.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13PHONE RINGS
0:39:19 > 0:39:21- The police know I'm here.- Yeah?
0:39:23 > 0:39:25Where are they, then?
0:39:26 > 0:39:31OK, attacking your wife is one thing. You hurt me, that's a different story. You know that, don't you?
0:39:31 > 0:39:34BREATHLESSLY: Come on, Gavin, it's over. Put the knife down. Please don't...
0:39:34 > 0:39:35You don't want to hurt me.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37You don't think I can?
0:39:37 > 0:39:38I've done it before!
0:39:38 > 0:39:40No, I believe you! Just...
0:39:41 > 0:39:43Please, Gavin, this isn't who you are.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52POLICE SIREN BLARES
0:39:58 > 0:39:59Police!
0:40:02 > 0:40:03Oh! Hey!
0:40:03 > 0:40:05Are you OK? Are you OK?
0:40:05 > 0:40:07THEY PANT
0:40:07 > 0:40:09I got you, I got you...
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Come on, come on. Come on.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14All right. Mind your head for me, Mr Drake.
0:40:27 > 0:40:28Hey.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29Clever clogs.
0:40:31 > 0:40:32Do you ever get tired of being right?
0:40:33 > 0:40:35Especially at moments like this.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39What gets me is Drake needn't have bothered.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41If he'd left his wife alone, she would have died anyway!
0:40:41 > 0:40:43Oh, I'm glad you think it's amusing.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46No, it's bloody tragic.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48A whole family destroyed and for what?
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Well, at least you're OK because...
0:40:53 > 0:40:54Because what?
0:40:56 > 0:40:58Oh...
0:40:59 > 0:41:00Because...
0:41:02 > 0:41:03..you know...
0:41:03 > 0:41:05No, I don't know...
0:41:07 > 0:41:08Why don't you tell me?
0:41:10 > 0:41:12PHONE RINGS
0:41:15 > 0:41:17I've got to take this.
0:41:19 > 0:41:20Hello, Annette.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23Yeah.
0:41:23 > 0:41:24Yeah, I know, I've got to pick the car up.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28Yes. What's the matter with it now?
0:41:32 > 0:41:34Now, now, Punch.
0:41:34 > 0:41:38What's all this about you raising your voice to Mrs Punch?
0:41:39 > 0:41:41I'm sorry, Officer.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43I don't know what came over me.
0:41:44 > 0:41:49Well...as long as you're willing to attend an anger management course,
0:41:49 > 0:41:53we'll say no more about it.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55APPLAUSE
0:41:55 > 0:41:56That's the way to do it.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Well...I've seen old Harry's show so many times, I know it by heart.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04I thought I might as well continue the tradition.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07Actually, it was Harry I came to talk to you about.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10We heard back from the pathologist.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13It looks as though Harry drank himself into a stupor
0:42:13 > 0:42:14and passed out on the beach.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17The incoming tide did the rest.
0:42:19 > 0:42:23If it's any comfort, John, I don't think he knew anything about it.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26- The show must go on, eh?- Oh, yeah!
0:42:50 > 0:42:53- FROM COURTROOM: - All rise for Her Majesty's Coroner.
