SCREAMING AND SOBBING

0:00:070:00:09

TEARING

0:00:090:00:12

You made it, then? Should have sent a man for you.

0:01:440:01:48

I didn't need a man, I had Clint.

0:01:480:01:50

I heard that.

0:01:500:01:51

-All right, Don, clear to go in?

-Yeah. Help yourself.

0:01:520:01:55

Shall we?

0:01:550:01:57

Er, no thanks. It's just, the adult ones are bad enough.

0:01:570:02:01

Yeah, all right.

0:02:010:02:02

See you later.

0:02:020:02:05

Over there.

0:02:060:02:09

Thanks.

0:02:110:02:13

So small.

0:02:210:02:23

Wrapped in 1970s newspaper.

0:02:250:02:27

Elderly couple lived here way back in the '60's,

0:02:270:02:29

but it's been empty since.

0:02:290:02:31

And way off the beaten track.

0:02:320:02:34

Condemned - due to coastal erosion.

0:02:340:02:37

A couple more years and the sea would probably have it.

0:02:370:02:41

Bury the evidence forever.

0:02:410:02:43

Well, it looks newborn, or near enough.

0:02:450:02:47

And if the birth happened way out here in the middle of nowhere,

0:02:470:02:51

then the mum would have been pretty frightened...

0:02:510:02:55

confused.

0:02:550:02:57

Managed to hide the body, though, didn't she?

0:02:570:03:00

That kind of suggests foul play.

0:03:000:03:03

Well, not necessarily. We don't know the circumstances.

0:03:030:03:06

Childbirth can be pretty traumatic.

0:03:060:03:08

You know women don't have an easy ride.

0:03:090:03:11

-Yeah, neither do men, having to put up with them.

-Ha!

0:03:110:03:14

Must have been pretty nice here, once upon a time.

0:03:180:03:21

Poor little thing, abandoned in such a lonely place.

0:03:210:03:26

Yeah. What sort of person does that, eh?

0:03:280:03:32

WHIRRING OF PROPELLERS

0:03:500:03:53

-TV:

-Remains of the baby were found early this morning,

0:03:560:04:00

hidden in a condemned cottage at Bluff Point.

0:04:000:04:03

Demolition workers onsite said that the remains had been sealed

0:04:030:04:07

up in a small nook in a chimney breast.

0:04:070:04:10

Police are yet to identify, but a forensic investigation is underway.

0:04:100:04:15

Detective Sergeant Higgins said that the...

0:04:150:04:17

It's not much to go on.

0:04:200:04:22

Sex is undetermined, maybe a month premature, but perfectly formed.

0:04:220:04:26

Apart from the broken ribs.

0:04:260:04:29

Well, there's no way to tell whether that happened post mortem.

0:04:290:04:32

Or prior to death.

0:04:320:04:34

You know, the longer I do this job,

0:04:340:04:35

the more I realise some people just shouldn't be allowed to have kids.

0:04:350:04:39

Well, at least we got a date.

0:04:410:04:42

Yeah, 1976. Decades back, so DNA's doubtful.

0:04:440:04:48

Well, a full nuclear they said, but we might get something from

0:04:480:04:52

the bone marrow, and the baby had hair.

0:04:520:04:54

Actually, Clint, can you get the lab to put a rush on that, please?

0:04:540:04:57

-Yeah, on it.

-Thanks.

0:04:570:05:00

So there's a chance we'll get mitochondrial DNA to check

0:05:000:05:03

against potential mothers.

0:05:030:05:04

Good. Cos it's the mother we're after.

0:05:040:05:07

CHILDREN SHOUT

0:05:090:05:11

-CAR RADIO:

-..it may have been there for up to 40 years...

0:05:110:05:13

We won't be going at all at this rate!

0:05:130:05:15

..hidden in a cottage which has been derelict since the 1960s.

0:05:150:05:18

Shush! Shush! Shush!

0:05:180:05:20

..Police say that although the condition of the baby's

0:05:200:05:23

remains makes determining cause of death difficult, they have

0:05:230:05:26

reason to suspect foul play. Talking to reporters...

0:05:260:05:28

Detective Sgt Higgins said the police are appealing for information.

0:05:280:05:33

The national information line number is...

0:05:330:05:36

TURNS RADIO OFF

0:05:360:05:38

I just don't see why it's always the woman's fault.

0:05:550:05:58

Yeah, me neither.

0:05:580:05:59

In your case, because you got caught. You've missed a bit.

0:05:590:06:02

-Grounded again?

-Yes.

-Yep.

0:06:020:06:04

Still rolling in at all hours,

0:06:040:06:06

so I have had to leave her in the care of a responsible adult.

0:06:060:06:09

I'm not saying it's definitely the mother.

0:06:100:06:13

Just, if that baby was newborn then she must have been part of

0:06:130:06:15

what happened.

0:06:150:06:17

-Yeah. Or maybe the father or someone else.

-Yeah, no-one reported it missing, did they?

0:06:170:06:20

What mother's not going do that, unless she did it?

0:06:200:06:23

Lonely old place, that cottage.

0:06:230:06:26

HE SNIFFS

0:06:260:06:27

Touch of the man-flu?

0:06:270:06:29

Touch of the Ebola, more like.

0:06:290:06:30

As generously shared by your mother last week - along with her

0:06:300:06:34

delectables.

0:06:340:06:35

You know it, then, Mick? Bluff Point?

0:06:350:06:38

Yeah. My old man used to do jobs up

0:06:380:06:40

there back in the '60s when I was a nipper.

0:06:400:06:43

Nice old couple, but miles from anywhere.

0:06:430:06:46

Apart from that great big old house up on the hill.

0:06:460:06:49

Who was living there then?

0:06:490:06:51

Uh, yeah...

0:06:510:06:53

Grey... something, Greyvale? Ron Tate's old place.

0:06:530:06:56

Shut down late '70s?

0:06:560:07:00

Children's home.

0:07:000:07:02

Right. I might see if I can turn up some contact details,

0:07:030:07:05

see if there's anyone still around.

0:07:050:07:07

I might take a spin past.

0:07:070:07:09

-Where's my super-strength Day Nurse?

-Cancel my chips, Mum.

0:07:090:07:11

BLOWS NOSE LOUDLY

0:07:110:07:14

Hi, Clint, did you get hold of the lab?

0:07:210:07:23

And any progress on the Grosvenor court date?

0:07:260:07:28

Listen, see if you can find any council records on

0:07:300:07:32

a Greyvale Children's Home, will you?

0:07:320:07:35

Yep, that's it. Active in the '70s.

0:07:350:07:37

Just anything you can turn up, really.

0:07:380:07:42

DOG BARKS

0:07:420:07:44

What're you after?

0:07:460:07:49

-RADIO:

-..police are appealing for any information from locals...

0:07:490:07:52

I know...

0:07:520:07:54

I know I just have to find the right time.

0:07:540:07:58

'..the remains have yet to be identified but speculation is...'

0:07:580:08:01

OK. OK.

0:08:010:08:03

'..any information should be directed to the police either

0:08:030:08:07

'locally or on the national crime number...'

0:08:070:08:09

They know.

0:08:090:08:11

Pull!

0:08:120:08:13

Seems to be working fine!

0:08:150:08:18

Perhaps a touch of performance anxiety?

0:08:200:08:22

Quite a place you've got.

0:08:250:08:28

Yes, of course it's open to the masses these days,

0:08:280:08:32

traipsing through the Great Hall.

0:08:320:08:35

But it pays the bills!

0:08:350:08:38

So, Greyvale? You were listed on an old police database as...

0:08:380:08:41

Yes, a Trustee. Yes.

0:08:410:08:44

-Pull!

-GUNSHOTS

0:08:440:08:45

Always getting myself "volunteered" for worthy causes.

0:08:450:08:49

Price of being a straight shooter, I suppose.

0:08:490:08:51

So what can you tell me about the place?

0:08:510:08:54

Gosh, now we're going back.

0:08:540:08:57

Well, it seemed well-run, insofar as I could tell. Ron...

0:09:000:09:06

Ron Tate, the manager.

0:09:060:09:09

He seemed to like a free hand, as I recall.

0:09:090:09:15

And what about the kids?

0:09:150:09:17

Any troubled girls in particular, getting themselves into bother?

0:09:170:09:21

Well, of course they were all vulnerable by definition, but...

0:09:210:09:25

GUNSHOTS CONTINUE

0:09:250:09:27

..I can't remember any names.

0:09:270:09:30

It's been so long ago.

0:09:300:09:32

All lost in the mists of time.

0:09:320:09:35

-Pull!

-GUNSHOTS

0:09:350:09:39

No! No, no! Go back.

0:09:390:09:44

Do excuse me, they cannot be left unattended.

0:09:460:09:50

Oh, if you see old Ron, tell him Charles Gower says hello.

0:09:530:09:59

So you're Ron Tate's son?

0:10:030:10:06

Phil. Greyvale closed yonks back.

0:10:060:10:09

Yes.

0:10:090:10:10

Investment for some yuppy Londoners now. I'm just caretaking.

0:10:100:10:15

But you were living here when it was a children's home?

0:10:150:10:18

Working.

0:10:180:10:20

As what, if you don't mind me asking?

0:10:200:10:22

Whatever my dad needed. Handyman mostly.

0:10:220:10:26

You would have been a young man yourself then?

0:10:270:10:30

And there were teenage girls living here?

0:10:300:10:32

Yeah, not that kind of handy.

0:10:320:10:36

I don't remember none of them girls being pregnant.

0:10:360:10:39

So, where's your dad now?

0:10:430:10:45

Nursing home. Not well.

0:10:460:10:49

Oh, I'm sorry. Which one?

0:10:490:10:52

You deaf? I said he's ill.

0:10:520:10:54

It's just possible your dad might remember something you can't.

0:10:540:10:58

My dad worked himself into the ground looking after them kids,

0:10:580:11:01

so you're not to go bothering him!

0:11:010:11:04

I'm sorry, but I have to go where my investigation takes me.

0:11:040:11:07

Well, what about records, or notes?

0:11:120:11:15

Would your dad have kept anything on Greyvale?

0:11:150:11:17

Suppose there might be some old photos in the shed.

0:11:190:11:22

No, you watch my dinner, or he'll have it.

0:11:240:11:28

DOG GROWLS

0:11:300:11:33

LAUGHTER AND CHATTING

0:11:330:11:35

Thanks. Mum?

0:11:350:11:37

Babe... I think I need a chest rub.

0:11:370:11:41

I got that congestion.

0:11:410:11:43

You're not the only one.

0:11:430:11:44

-Mum.

-Wow! What are they wearing?!

0:11:440:11:47

-Loons.

-Yeah. No kidding.

0:11:470:11:49

No, I mean the trousers, silly!

0:11:490:11:51

I had a pair in crushed velvet.

0:11:510:11:53

My glory days. Gallivanting about, not a care in the world back then.

0:11:530:11:57

Babe?

0:11:570:11:58

Mum, you were 15 in 1976, weren't you?

0:11:580:12:01

D'you know any of these girls?

0:12:010:12:03

Got your message.

0:12:030:12:05

This Greyvale?

0:12:050:12:07

Yeah.

0:12:070:12:08

I think these two were in my year.

0:12:090:12:12

Karen Shaw.

0:12:120:12:15

And Sarah Millar.

0:12:150:12:17

Not sure about the other one.

0:12:170:12:20

Lucy? May have been the year above.

0:12:200:12:23

D'you remember anything about them?

0:12:230:12:25

I had me own crowd.

0:12:250:12:27

And then I got busy for the next eighteen years, didn't I?

0:12:270:12:30

Well, would any of your old crowd know her?

0:12:300:12:33

Ooh, I haven't seem 'em for years.

0:12:330:12:35

Ask the other two. I think they live local.

0:12:350:12:37

Babe, I think I got a temperature now!

0:12:370:12:40

Well, you know where to stick the thermometer, don't you!

0:12:400:12:43

So, looks like these three girls would be the right age at the

0:12:430:12:47

-right time.

-Hmm.

0:12:470:12:49

Thanks.

0:12:490:12:51

Where are you going? Wait.

0:12:510:12:53

Davey!

0:12:540:12:56

A bit of warning might have been nice.

0:12:560:12:59

This is supposed to be a fun day out -

0:12:590:13:01

watching your foster mother hunted down by the police isn't fun.

0:13:010:13:04

No-one's hunting anyone, love.

0:13:040:13:06

I just asked your neighbours where you were.

0:13:060:13:08

Well, they shouldn't have said. There's child-protection issues.

0:13:080:13:11

Which bring us back to the matter in hand.

0:13:110:13:14

Karen, do you recognise this girl from Greyvale?

0:13:140:13:16

No, I dunno.

0:13:230:13:26

Really? You two look thick as thieves to me.

0:13:260:13:29

I can't remember. It was a long time ago.

0:13:290:13:31

-Anything else?

-Yeah, how about a DNA sample?

0:13:320:13:35

Just to rule you out of our enquiries?

0:13:350:13:37

I think I'd remember if I'd been pregnant.

0:13:370:13:40

I'm sorry, but this is about a baby.

0:13:400:13:42

A technician, two seconds and we won't bother you again.

0:13:420:13:45

Fine.

0:13:450:13:46

Thank you very much. Much obliged.

0:13:460:13:49

She has got her hands full.

0:13:490:13:51

Yeah. But some people foster for the money, though, don't they?

0:13:510:13:55

Maybe she's trying to give them the loving home she never had.

0:13:550:13:58

-Or maybe she couldn't have one of her own?

-Or maybe she did, and something happened to it?

0:13:580:14:02

We've got to do something!

0:14:070:14:09

There's nothing we can do.

0:14:090:14:11

Here, take these, everything is going to be OK.

0:14:110:14:15

No, it's not! How's it ever going to be OK again?

0:14:150:14:18

They don't know anything. There is nothing to connect us.

0:14:180:14:22

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:14:230:14:25

Go in.

0:14:250:14:28

Hello.

0:14:350:14:37

Sorry to bother you. I'm DS Higgins.

0:14:370:14:39

This is my colleague, Jane Kennedy, the Lighthaven coroner.

0:14:390:14:42

-We're looking for a Sarah Millar.

-W-What's this about?

0:14:420:14:46

Headache.

0:14:520:14:55

If you'd rather talk without your husband here...

0:14:550:14:58

Oh! Sorry... No, Lee's my brother.

0:14:580:15:02

I'm just visiting. From the States.

0:15:020:15:05

It's horrible... I heard on the news.

0:15:100:15:14

But I don't know what I can tell you.

0:15:140:15:16

I don't know anything about a baby.

0:15:160:15:18

We were hoping you might remember these two girls.

0:15:180:15:23

Karen Shaw?

0:15:230:15:25

-No.

-Yeah.

0:15:250:15:27

Were you at Greyvale, too?

0:15:280:15:30

Are you in there?

0:15:330:15:34

No. I hated having my picture taken back then.

0:15:360:15:39

Karen says she doesn't remember you.

0:15:410:15:43

It's a lifetime ago, isn't it?

0:15:440:15:47

And being in care isn't generally a memory you cherish.

0:15:470:15:50

What about this girl? Can you give us a name?

0:15:540:15:57

Sorry.

0:15:590:16:01

Are you sure? Do you want a closer look?

0:16:030:16:06

No, sorry.

0:16:060:16:08

Is that it?

0:16:080:16:10

We'd like a DNA sample.

0:16:100:16:13

To compare with what? It's 40 years ago.

0:16:130:16:16

Well, we might get something back.

0:16:160:16:19

OK.

0:16:210:16:23

Lovely, smashing. Shall we?

0:16:230:16:26

She seemed a bit...flaky?

0:16:350:16:38

Yeah. Dependent, even.

0:16:380:16:40

But she did agree to a DNA test, which suggests nothing to hide.

0:16:400:16:43

Karen, too.

0:16:430:16:44

We need to ID this third girl.

0:16:440:16:46

And seeing as Clint hasn't turned up anything yet,

0:16:460:16:49

there's only one person left to ask.

0:16:490:16:51

Although Phil Tate's not going to be happy...

0:16:510:16:54

It's been a long time.

0:17:190:17:21

I need a favour.

0:17:350:17:37

No, I'm working on it.

0:17:430:17:46

Basically, it's too long ago for current records,

0:17:460:17:50

but I am into the council archive room now.

0:17:500:17:54

So don't worry, it's all under control.

0:17:540:17:57

Yes, I'll see you later. Bye.

0:17:570:17:59

Ah, spiders!

0:18:010:18:03

Right, nurse said he can't speak much since the stroke.

0:18:060:18:09

Mr Tate,

0:18:140:18:16

I know communication's difficult, but can you remember this girl?

0:18:160:18:21

Her name, perhaps? Or anything about her?

0:18:210:18:24

We think one of these girls might have had a baby

0:18:290:18:32

when they were living at Greyvale.

0:18:320:18:33

We've identified Karen and Sarah.

0:18:330:18:36

What about any boyfriends on the scene?

0:18:420:18:44

-All right. Thanks, Ron.

-Sorry to have bothered you.

0:18:480:18:51

Oh.

0:18:520:18:54

Charles Gower - sends his regards.

0:18:540:18:56

Well, another door closes.

0:19:050:19:07

Maybe that's just how it's going to be

0:19:070:19:09

until we get something back from the public appeal.

0:19:090:19:11

Clint! What've you got?

0:19:110:19:13

Really?

0:19:150:19:17

Mr Gower.

0:19:170:19:18

-Hello.

-Can we have a word?

0:19:200:19:22

Of course.

0:19:220:19:25

Charles Gower.

0:19:250:19:26

Jane Kennedy. Coroner for Lighthaven.

0:19:260:19:28

Right, Mr Gower, you'll be very pleased to know

0:19:280:19:31

we finally managed to track down the council records on Greyvale.

0:19:310:19:34

Oh, did you? Splendid!

0:19:340:19:36

Yeah, it's not all good news, though, I'm afraid.

0:19:360:19:38

Most of the records on residents were flood-damaged.

0:19:380:19:41

However, due to the miracle of plastic folders,

0:19:410:19:43

other things survived.

0:19:430:19:45

Including your resignation letter from 1976,

0:19:450:19:47

citing "financial difficulties."

0:19:470:19:49

Oh, yes?

0:19:490:19:50

Yeah, but the real head-scratcher is

0:19:500:19:53

your company records showed a profit.

0:19:530:19:55

So I was just wondering where the money went.

0:19:560:19:59

Whether someone's holding your feet to the flames over something

0:19:590:20:02

-or...

-Something at Greyvale?

0:20:020:20:03

No, no, no, no, no..!

0:20:070:20:09

No, it wasn't like that.

0:20:090:20:12

I had what is today called an addiction.

0:20:140:20:18

But my father laughingly called "a defect in my moral character."

0:20:180:20:24

A defect?

0:20:240:20:26

Yes.

0:20:260:20:27

Well, gambling.

0:20:290:20:31

I got myself into quite a pickle. Had to resign.

0:20:340:20:38

Shameful, I know...

0:20:380:20:41

But I had nothing to do with this business.

0:20:410:20:44

I was merely a trustee, simple as that.

0:20:440:20:47

Never hands-on with any of the young people, like...

0:20:470:20:51

Like who?

0:20:510:20:52

There were rumours, later on, that Greyvale...

0:20:550:20:59

wasn't so well run by the family concerned,

0:20:590:21:04

and HAD to close.

0:21:040:21:07

That's all I know...

0:21:080:21:10

Right, OK. Thanks for your time.

0:21:110:21:13

-He didn't name any names.

-No. But he was clearly talking about the Tates.

0:21:200:21:24

Yeah, but which one? Ron or Phil? And either way it's not enough

0:21:240:21:27

to bring them in for questioning, is it? And then he clammed up.

0:21:270:21:30

Like he was scared, maybe, or holding something back?

0:21:300:21:32

Just like everyone else we've talked to.

0:21:320:21:34

You think the third girl could be the mother?

0:21:370:21:41

She just looks so lost. No-one seems to remember

0:21:410:21:44

who she is, or what happened to her. Or the baby.

0:21:440:21:48

Two lost souls.

0:21:490:21:50

What the hell're you playing at, eh?! I got a call

0:21:520:21:55

from my dad's nursing home! They had to sedate him after you left!

0:21:550:21:58

All right, all right! Take it easy, my friend!

0:21:580:22:00

We were only there for five minutes and he was fine.

0:22:000:22:02

I ain't your friend. I told her to stay away.

0:22:020:22:05

All right, Come on. Come on.

0:22:050:22:07

-You owe me counselling, for the spiders.

-Ugh...

0:22:090:22:14

-And the women...

-There she is!

0:22:140:22:17

How are you, my baby?

0:22:170:22:19

Still cute and cuddly as the day you were born.

0:22:190:22:21

Yeah, and house-trained now. Mum, what are you up to?

0:22:210:22:23

Oh, rebelling! Recapturing our lost youth.

0:22:230:22:27

Or any other youth.

0:22:290:22:30

-All right?

-You lot causing trouble?

0:22:300:22:32

'70s night at The Captain's Pipe!

0:22:320:22:34

You got me thinking. Round up the old gang,

0:22:340:22:37

paint the town red like we used to do in the old days!

0:22:370:22:40

We were underage back then.

0:22:410:22:43

Are they your old school friends?

0:22:430:22:45

Tina's still got her old disco tapes.

0:22:450:22:47

We're off now for a few more bevvies and a boogie.

0:22:520:22:56

Great idea!

0:22:560:22:57

You always were a good girl.

0:22:590:23:02

Yeah. We'll catch up on the good old days.

0:23:020:23:04

Look at some old photos.

0:23:040:23:06

I see you, Davey.

It's OK, Dad. I've sorted the police.

They won't be bothering you again.

0:23:220:23:24

Lee?

0:23:410:23:43

Lee who?

0:23:430:23:44

But...

0:23:480:23:50

did you...?

0:23:500:23:51

It's all OK now, I promise.

0:23:510:23:53

We're safe?

0:23:530:23:55

Yeah, see?

0:23:550:23:57

I made it all go away, like always.

Davey, it's me again.

Listen, Mum's friend ID'd the third girl,

0:25:050:25:07

and I want to hit Sarah with it.

0:25:070:25:08

She's obviously the weak link, but I can't split them up on my own.

0:25:080:25:11

I need you to call me back.

0:25:110:25:13

Look, call me back.

Sammy?

0:25:290:25:31

Here, boy!

0:25:310:25:32

It was Lisa, wasn't it? The third girl.

0:25:570:26:00

-Do you remember her now?

-No...

0:26:020:26:05

Maybe a bit.

0:26:050:26:07

-No-one really knew her.

-A bit?

0:26:080:26:11

She was your sister.

0:26:110:26:12

That's what I've heard from your school friends.

0:26:140:26:17

-So where is she, Sarah? Where's Lisa? What happened?

-I don't know.

0:26:170:26:21

-I can't say.

-Is it Lee?

-No!

-Keeping you quiet?

0:26:210:26:25

No! Lisa's gone.

0:26:250:26:29

-Gone where?

-She's dead!

0:26:290:26:31

Dead?

0:26:320:26:34

How?

0:27:270:27:29

Where are you, Lisa?

0:27:540:27:55

Hello?

0:28:000:28:01

Hello?

0:28:040:28:06

You were caught, bang to rights, my friend,

0:28:320:28:34

-with this lock of hair in your shed.

-No, I've never seen that before!

0:28:340:28:37

The preliminary forensic examination of which suggests it comes from

0:28:370:28:40

the hair of that baby. And I'll bet the DNA backs it up.

0:28:400:28:42

-I've never seen it!

-Then what's it doing in your shed?

-I don't know!

0:28:420:28:45

All right.

Interview suspended at 10:34.

0:28:560:28:58

You have a good think about what you want to say next.

0:29:000:29:03

And it better be a darned sight better than "I've been framed."

0:29:030:29:06

-What is it?

-Did you get my messages?

-No, I've been kind of busy here.

0:29:130:29:16

I think we need to get CSI back to the cottage

0:29:160:29:19

-with ground-penetrating radar.

-Why?

-Sorry, my messages.

0:29:190:29:22

So, mum's friend recognised the third girl. Her name is Lisa.

0:29:220:29:25

She was Sarah and Lee's sister.

0:29:250:29:28

I just went to confront Sarah with it and she told me

0:29:290:29:31

-that Lisa's dead.

-Dead? How?

0:29:310:29:33

She wouldn't say but, Davey, something's not right.

0:29:330:29:37

And then it got me thinking - I know mitochondrial DNA is the same

0:29:380:29:42

between sisters, but what if Sarah was the mum, she...

0:29:420:29:44

Whoa, Sarah is the mum. The DNA's just come back.

0:29:440:29:48

-It's a match.

-She would have been underage.

0:29:480:29:50

And if the father wasn't, that's rape,

0:29:500:29:53

and the baby would have been proof.

0:29:530:29:55

So, what if Lisa found out who the father was

0:29:550:29:57

and he killed her and the baby to hush it all up?

0:29:570:30:00

All right.

0:30:000:30:02

OK.

0:30:020:30:03

So who are you looking at for the father?

0:30:030:30:05

Phil?

0:30:050:30:06

He's denying everything, of course.

0:30:060:30:08

Said someone drugged his dog and Lee Millar hassled his dad.

0:30:080:30:12

Ron?

0:30:130:30:15

Wait. I saw someone leaving the nursing home

0:30:150:30:17

just before we spoke to Ron.

0:30:170:30:19

That could have been Lee.

0:30:190:30:21

He was at Greyvale.

0:30:210:30:23

And he does seem to be going around keeping everyone quiet.

0:30:230:30:26

I mean, Sarah, Ron Tate?

0:30:260:30:27

Yeah, but Lee Millar, the dad.

0:30:270:30:30

That's incest.

0:30:300:30:32

If Lisa found out and was going to tell,

0:30:340:30:36

maybe he had to keep her quiet...

0:30:360:30:38

permanently.

0:30:380:30:39

Well, well. Gang's all here.

0:30:520:30:54

Going somewhere? Only I could do with a chat.

0:31:010:31:05

I've got a plane to catch.

0:31:050:31:07

Oh, right, OK. Don't worry.

0:31:080:31:11

We'll talk to your sister instead.

0:31:110:31:13

So you do all know each other?

0:31:220:31:24

You reminded us, so we got back in touch.

0:31:240:31:27

Hm.

0:31:270:31:28

We've matched Sarah's DNA to the baby.

0:31:290:31:31

No, you haven't. It was 40 years ago.

0:31:310:31:33

Yeah, well, DNA's come on a lot.

0:31:330:31:35

We know the mother was either Sarah or Lisa.

0:31:350:31:37

Yeah, you know your sister... who died?

0:31:370:31:39

-Or have you forgotten her again already?

-No.

0:31:390:31:41

What happened to her, then? Cos there's no record of her death.

0:31:410:31:43

-Am I going to find her buried out at that cottage, too?

-Leave her alone.

0:31:430:31:46

-Is Lisa the mother, Sarah, or are you?

-Stop!

0:31:460:31:48

-What did you do to that baby?

-She didn't do anything!

0:31:480:31:51

I went to the cottage.

0:32:000:32:02

Someone cared about that baby.

0:32:070:32:09

But who left the third?

0:32:200:32:21

I did.

0:32:290:32:30

Cos it's your baby?

0:32:340:32:35

-You were the father.

-No.

0:32:370:32:38

-You're lying!

-Lee, you have to go now.

0:32:380:32:41

We know you went to Ron Tate, tried to shut him up.

0:32:410:32:43

-Lee, please.

-Did you hurt Lisa or that baby?

0:32:430:32:46

-I'd never have hurt him.

-Him?

0:32:460:32:47

Oh, no, no...

0:32:470:32:49

How do you know it was a boy?

0:32:490:32:52

SOBBING

0:32:520:32:53

Because it was your baby.

0:33:000:33:02

You were Lisa.

0:33:050:33:07

I can't keep doing this.

0:33:170:33:19

No more lies.

0:33:210:33:22

I was...Lisa...

0:33:500:33:53

..once upon a time.

0:33:550:33:57

But now I'm Lee.

0:34:010:34:02

Like I should have been, from the start.

0:34:040:34:07

HE SIGHS

0:34:120:34:13

There was a man...

0:34:190:34:21

..at Greyvale.

0:34:250:34:26

Someone...

0:34:290:34:31

we were supposed to be able to trust.

0:34:310:34:34

Charles Gower?

0:34:370:34:38

We both caught his eye.

0:34:430:34:46

We were too young...

0:34:460:34:47

and stupid...

0:34:470:34:49

..and petrified to tell anyone.

0:34:500:34:52

And no adults noticed?

0:34:540:34:55

Later on,

0:34:580:34:59

Ron guessed.

0:34:590:35:00

Apparently...

0:35:020:35:04

Gower made threats.

0:35:040:35:07

Friends in high places.

0:35:070:35:08

Ron knew that if he rocked the boat,

0:35:100:35:13

Greyvale would go down,

0:35:130:35:14

and all us kids with it.

0:35:140:35:16

Ron was one of the good guys.

0:35:200:35:21

But I think it broke him, in the end...

0:35:240:35:26

..that it happened on his watch.

0:35:280:35:30

And he closed the place down anyway,

0:35:320:35:35

while Gower swanned off back to his estate.

0:35:350:35:38

He could always spot your weakness.

0:35:400:35:44

He'd use anything...

0:35:440:35:45

..anyone to get what he wanted.

0:35:470:35:49

Yeah, I know.

0:35:510:35:53

Poor old Ron Tate needed sedating after just hearing his name.

0:35:530:35:57

Lisa was always the strong one.

0:35:590:36:01

My big sis, looking out for us.

0:36:020:36:05

She...

0:36:060:36:07

She distracted him.

0:36:080:36:10

She took it all on herself.

0:36:130:36:14

OK.

0:36:180:36:20

Thank you.

0:36:210:36:23

It wasn't my "real" body, anyway...

0:36:310:36:36

so I didn't care...

0:36:360:36:38

..till I realised I was pregnant.

0:36:400:36:42

Being sick in the toilets,

0:36:450:36:48

them holding my hair out of my eyes.

0:36:480:36:50

Nicking big sweaters to hide the bump.

0:36:500:36:53

We were going to run away to our secret cottage.

0:36:550:36:59

Like Whistle Down the Wind.

0:36:590:37:01

Be our own family, like we'd always wanted.

0:37:010:37:03

And is that why the baby was born?

0:37:050:37:07

QUIET SOBBING

0:37:090:37:10

Tom.

0:37:130:37:14

And he was perfect...

0:37:160:37:19

..but still.

0:37:210:37:23

Lifeless.

0:37:260:37:27

He never made a sound.

0:37:300:37:31

And we didn't know what to do.

0:37:350:37:37

I couldn't leave him there.

0:37:390:37:42

Not in the cold ground.

0:37:420:37:43

Losing Tom...

0:37:500:37:52

..more than ever, I needed a new start...

0:37:540:37:57

a new life...

0:37:570:38:00

a new me.

0:38:000:38:01

Gender reassignment surgery was available abroad,

0:38:050:38:09

but expensive.

0:38:090:38:10

Lee...

0:38:100:38:11

I went to Gower...

0:38:130:38:16

and I told him that I'd tell,

0:38:160:38:20

unless he coughed up.

0:38:200:38:22

He didn't even believe there was a baby at first...

0:38:240:38:26

..till I gave him proof.

0:38:290:38:30

The proof you gave to Gower was a lock of Tom's hair.

0:38:350:38:40

It's the only piece of him we would have had left.

0:38:400:38:42

I blackmailed him.

0:38:440:38:45

And made him resign. Saved Greyvale.

0:38:480:38:51

Saved us all.

0:38:510:38:53

I went to the Philippines.

0:38:530:38:56

I had the hormones,

0:38:570:39:00

and later the surgery.

0:39:000:39:01

And Lisa died...

0:39:050:39:06

..but Lee was born.

0:39:080:39:10

And we never forgot Tom's birthday...

0:39:110:39:13

..and the family we made.

0:39:190:39:21

'I only went to the cottage to say goodbye...

0:39:340:39:36

'..but he's not there any more.'

0:39:390:39:41

What happens now?

0:39:530:39:54

Well, I do have good grounds to believe that Lisa may be guilty

0:40:000:40:04

of blackmailing Charles Gower.

0:40:040:40:06

GASPING

0:40:060:40:08

Only problem is, there's no Lisa here, is there?

0:40:110:40:13

-I got you this.

-Thanks.

0:40:450:40:47

So I've released Phil Tate,

0:40:470:40:50

told him who framed him, planted the hair.

0:40:500:40:52

How did he take that?

0:40:520:40:53

He's not best pleased.

0:40:530:40:55

Karen and Sarah have both made official complaints against Gower

0:40:550:40:58

so, all in all, good work.

0:40:580:41:00

Oi! HE WHISTLES

0:41:000:41:01

I still don't know how you managed to find those flowers, though,

0:41:040:41:07

when my CSI team couldn't.

0:41:070:41:09

Well, you just have to learn to see things like a woman.

0:41:090:41:12

Anyway, I couldn't have done it without you.

0:41:140:41:16

Oh, that's right. Behind every woman is an even greater man?

0:41:160:41:19

Maybe.

0:41:190:41:21

You know she's talking about me, right?

0:41:210:41:23

Yeah, all right, cheers.

0:41:230:41:25

We should go to court.

0:41:260:41:28

Oh, no. Oh...

0:41:290:41:31

That's not going to end well.

0:41:310:41:33

Told you.

0:41:370:41:38

My mouth feels like I gargled with hamster.

0:41:540:41:58

Now who's the lightweight, eh?

0:41:580:42:00

-Hair of the dog.

-Oh.

0:42:050:42:08

Seems like we both had something to get out of our system, eh?

0:42:100:42:13

Oh, never again.

0:42:130:42:15

Moment of madness.

0:42:150:42:16

I was trying to find the wild thing I once was before I got...

0:42:180:42:24

busy.

0:42:240:42:25

All gone now, though?

0:42:270:42:29

No way.

0:42:290:42:30

But next time just give us a nudge.

0:42:320:42:34

I'll help you find it.

0:42:340:42:35

FOOTSTEPS

0:42:380:42:39

Oh, you shouldn't have.

0:42:410:42:42

-Just to say thanks.

-What for?

0:42:440:42:46

Everything.
