0:01:31 > 0:01:33RADIO PLAYS FAINTLY

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Mummy?

0:02:33 > 0:02:37- So, you found Elizabeth in the kitchen?- Ah, yes. Yes, I did.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38I was terrified!

0:02:38 > 0:02:41To think that this could happen in my neighbourhood!

0:02:41 > 0:02:44- Right. Mrs Gilmore, you were telling me...- I was in my backyard.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46- And...- Mrs Gilmore.

0:02:46 > 0:02:48You were telling me about Elizabeth's mother, Mrs...

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Oh. Judith. Yes, Mrs Chapman.

0:02:50 > 0:02:54Her husband's Laurie Chapman. I presume he's at work, at the moment,

0:02:54 > 0:02:57although he hardly needs to work any more.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Laurie Chapman who won the... - PHONE RINGS

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Excuse me for a minute.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07PHONE RINGS

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Chapman house. Sergeant Davis.

0:03:12 > 0:03:15Listen up if you want to see her alive.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Who is this?

0:03:16 > 0:03:19I said, listen. Judith's been kidnapped.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22She's going to be chopped up unless I get 50,000 quid.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25Is Mrs Chapman all right? I need...

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Shut up! I'll call at three o'clock with instructions.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Hold on, please!

0:03:29 > 0:03:30Three o'clock?

0:03:30 > 0:03:32HE TAPS AT THE KEYPAD

0:03:32 > 0:03:33Hello?

0:03:40 > 0:03:43- It's beautiful, Jean. Just wondering, though...- Mm?

0:03:43 > 0:03:47This little chap here, do you think he needs repotting?

0:03:47 > 0:03:50Mm. You're getting quite good at this.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53- Well, I've learnt from the best. - Is that right?

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Yes.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- And the name of this one is? - Well, of course, yes,

0:03:58 > 0:04:00that would be the um...

0:04:00 > 0:04:04Well, that's your typical, garden variety,

0:04:04 > 0:04:08velvety-petalled, spotted... hydrangea thing.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11I think you should stick to medicine.

0:04:11 > 0:04:12Maybe I should.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19PHONE RINGS

0:04:19 > 0:04:21- I'll get that.- No, no, no.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24You've got your hands full. I'll, um...

0:04:24 > 0:04:26PHONE RINGS

0:04:36 > 0:04:38Oh, look, he's got a doctor's bag.

0:04:39 > 0:04:40Blake!

0:04:45 > 0:04:48Judith Chapman, wife of Laurie Chapman.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49THE Laurie Chapman.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52- The Lottery winner? - Very same.

0:04:57 > 0:04:58We're trying to locate the next of kin.

0:05:00 > 0:05:01Right.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06£50,000, that's...

0:05:06 > 0:05:08- That's a lot of money.- Mm.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11And this bloke wants all of it.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14Not enough here to suggest he's dead, I would've thought.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17No, there's no arterial spray pattern.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19This suggests more of a superficial wound.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22But this is odd, Frank.

0:05:22 > 0:05:27The blood here, it's lying in intact or complete drops.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31In other words, the blood has landed on the knife.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34- You mean after the knife was already on the floor?- Exactly, yes.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38We'll get it to Dr Harvey after you've checked for prints.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40- Everything still in place for three o'clock?- Yes, sir.

0:05:40 > 0:05:44I've spoken to the exchange and I'll be there when the kidnapper calls.

0:05:44 > 0:05:45OK, good. Good work.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Elizabeth, in the kitchen,

0:05:50 > 0:05:54you didn't cut yourself on any of those broken plates, did you?

0:05:56 > 0:05:58No? That's good.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01I tell you what, you're being very, very brave

0:06:01 > 0:06:05and I get the feeling you might be very, very clever too.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07- Wouldn't you say, Frank? - Oh, I think she's very clever.

0:06:07 > 0:06:12Yes. So, I need you to do something for us. I need you to think,

0:06:12 > 0:06:16have there been any other unusual telephone calls?

0:06:18 > 0:06:20No? And Mummy hasn't had any arguments,

0:06:20 > 0:06:24perhaps at the shops or...

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Or at your school?

0:06:26 > 0:06:28No, sir.

0:06:28 > 0:06:29No.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31And, apart from in the kitchen,

0:06:31 > 0:06:36have you seen or noticed anything unusual, anything at all?

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Mrs Gilmore usually shouts at me over the fence,

0:06:40 > 0:06:43but today she came in.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47She said she was coming to complain about a stick banging on her fence.

0:06:47 > 0:06:52Oh. Well, I'm sure your father will be here very, very soon.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54I just want my mum.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Thanks ever so much.- Thank you.

0:07:12 > 0:07:16G'day, fellas. Chief Superintendent Carlyle. This is Dr Blake.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18We're looking for Laurie Chapman. Either of you know where he is?

0:07:18 > 0:07:20He's not in his office?

0:07:21 > 0:07:23Then, no, sorry.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27- Did he come in today? - He must've gone out.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29We'll get him to call the station. Kick her in the guts, mate.

0:07:29 > 0:07:30Sure.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Hang on, hang on. I'm not done with you two yet.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35Laurie's a good bloke. Leave him alone.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37Right! Back here!

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Names. Now!

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Weston. Cliff Weston.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Tom O'Reilly.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49What time did Laurie leave?

0:07:52 > 0:07:56Laurie's not in any trouble. This is an urgent family matter.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Now, do either of you know him well?

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I went to school with him.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01And we all played footy with him.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05- And we worked with him. He used to be a mechanic here with us.- Right.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06Do you know his wife Judith?

0:08:08 > 0:08:11No? Do you have any idea where he might be?

0:08:11 > 0:08:13This really is an emergency.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15You could try the Bendigo office.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18Wasn't that hard, now, was it?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Grew up on Grimstead Street. Wrong side of the tracks.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Champion footy player. Played VFL. Retired due to injury.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Did his knee. Tough as nails, Laurie Chapman.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Yes, that's great. But have we had the pleasure of his company before?

0:08:33 > 0:08:37No, sir, not even as a kid. Moved to this address a year ago.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39What about the neighbour? Has she been any more help?

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Not really. Even after Davis told her he was a sergeant

0:08:42 > 0:08:44and not just a constable.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47Lucien, we may need your bedside manner on this.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Of course. What do we know about her family?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53Charlie's tracking down her mother, Irene Henderson.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57- And the knife?- We compared the prints to samples from the house.

0:08:57 > 0:08:58All Mrs Chapman's.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01PHONE RINGS

0:09:01 > 0:09:04- Hello? Ballarat Police. - No-one's talking, no prints

0:09:04 > 0:09:08and, thanks to this bloody rag, no shortage of suspects.

0:09:08 > 0:09:09Hm.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11"Lucky Laurie."

0:09:11 > 0:09:13"Ballarat's own Laurie Chapman from..."

0:09:14 > 0:09:18Oh, for the love of God! They printed his address!

0:09:18 > 0:09:20- Anyone in Ballarat could've done it! - Anyone in the state. Yeah?

0:09:20 > 0:09:23The Bendigo office called.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Laurie Chapman didn't go to the meeting today, he called in sick.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27Right. Circulate his rego and details.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29A message for you, Doc.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Thank you, Ned.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Wonderful.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38A knife?

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Normally at least I get a body to work with.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Well, let's just be thankful there isn't a body this time.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46I completed the blood agglutination test, as you asked.

0:09:46 > 0:09:50- It's type O. - Right. Which is very common.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52However, Judith is type B.

0:09:52 > 0:09:57- It might be the kidnapper's blood. - Perhaps. Maybe she stabbed at them.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59I found something else on the blade.

0:09:59 > 0:10:04Intracellular protein structure is...

0:10:04 > 0:10:06is cooked?!

0:10:06 > 0:10:10- Well, then, it can't be...? - Human. Hopefully not.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13Oh, the bloody ham. You sure there's no other tissue?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Nothing that's not cooked. - Well, Judith definitely drew blood

0:10:15 > 0:10:18so we're looking for someone with...

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Scratches, a cut lip.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Yes. But who?

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Mrs Gilmore, how do you do?- Oh!

0:10:31 > 0:10:35Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Dr Lucien Blake, Police Surgeon.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38Oh, how lovely to meet you, Doctor.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Oh, the pleasure is all mine.

0:10:40 > 0:10:41Er, Sergeant Davis has been telling me

0:10:41 > 0:10:47- what a wonderful help you've been. - Oh! I do what I can!- Yes. Of course.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50Such unpleasant business for this lovely area.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- Well, unpleasant but... Yes. - Yes.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Not what you'd be used to around here.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59- Oh, not in the past, no. - No. Tell me,

0:10:59 > 0:11:01how long have the Chapmans been here?

0:11:03 > 0:11:07Well, the Chapmans are not really of this neighbourhood.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08Really?

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Yes, I mean, Mrs Chapman is somewhat common

0:11:10 > 0:11:14and her husband's an ex-football player.

0:11:15 > 0:11:20Yes. Fair to say you don't really like the Chapmans?

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Oh, no, I... Oh! No, I wouldn't say that.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25But they're trouble.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28They attract a different type. Look, just last week,

0:11:28 > 0:11:33Mrs Chapman was arguing out here with a very rough-looking fellow.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Brownish hair, unshaven?

0:11:38 > 0:11:41Right. Do you recall seeing anyone else,

0:11:41 > 0:11:44anyone loitering in the street causing trouble?

0:11:44 > 0:11:46- DOOR SLAMS - No.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47SHE SIGHS

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Different type, like I said.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55The apple doesn't fall very far from the tree.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Give me a hug, sweetie! Don't you worry, Bethy, darl!

0:12:04 > 0:12:07Granny's here and you'll be all right.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Mrs Henderson, we are actually waiting on another call, so...

0:12:10 > 0:12:13- You got everything you need, love? - My books.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15Books? Here we are.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18They're Mummy's.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Oh. Anything else, Bethy, dear?

0:12:21 > 0:12:23My toothbrush.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Mum calls me Elizabeth.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Oh. I'll get that. It'll be in the kitchen.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Don't touch anything in there.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33We keep our toothbrushes in the bathroom.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35In the bathroom?

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Ah. Here we are.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Now, which one's yours?

0:12:41 > 0:12:44- This one. - I thought so.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Judith has Addison's disease.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Now, I'm no endocrinologist but I do know a thing or two about it.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08The adrenal glands don't function, there's a deficiency of cortisol

0:13:08 > 0:13:11so she needs regular doses of steroids.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13- Otherwise? - Otherwise she'll die.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16How long?

0:13:16 > 0:13:18Well, without her medication, a day, maybe two.

0:13:18 > 0:13:22There's a steady decline, low blood pressure, vomiting, convulsions,

0:13:22 > 0:13:24coma and death.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28- All right. You take the call. - Me?

0:13:28 > 0:13:30- Yes.- Well, Addison's disease,

0:13:30 > 0:13:32you know what you're talking about far better than me.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36- Also, the exchange is going to trace the call.- Very good.

0:13:36 > 0:13:38As long as we don't hang up at this end,

0:13:38 > 0:13:39they'll trace the lines back to his phone

0:13:39 > 0:13:41regardless of whether he hangs up or not.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44But I need you to keep him talking as long as possible. That way the...

0:13:44 > 0:13:46PHONE RINGS

0:13:56 > 0:13:59This is Dr Lucien Blake. I'm with the police.

0:13:59 > 0:14:03I want £50,000 in two brown paper bags.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Yes, but you need to know

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Judith has a condition called Addison's disease.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11- What?- 'Without her medication, she'll die.'

0:14:11 > 0:14:14Now, please, just describe her current condition for me.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17- No. She's fine. Now, look... - 'Please listen to me.'

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- You need to get her some prednisone. That's prednisone.- 'What?'

0:14:20 > 0:14:23- 'No. Look.'- Just ask her. She'll tell you what she needs.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25Look, I tell YOU what to do, right?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28Yes, yes, I understand. But you really do need to get her

0:14:28 > 0:14:32- some prednisone from a chemist or a...- 'I'm not doing that!'

0:14:32 > 0:14:34If you don't do what I say,

0:14:34 > 0:14:37I'll tie her down so she gets chopped up!

0:14:37 > 0:14:38Now, you listen to me.

0:14:38 > 0:14:41If she dies, there is no money. Do you understand that?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Now, you get the prednisone. - 'I'm not stupid!'

0:14:44 > 0:14:46- Get the money! - 'All right, now, look...'

0:14:47 > 0:14:48Hello?

0:14:48 > 0:14:50You there?

0:14:50 > 0:14:53Davis just radioed from the exchange. It's a local phone box.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55All right, go. Go.

0:14:55 > 0:14:59Very odd. He didn't say where to leave the money.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02POLICE SIREN

0:15:07 > 0:15:08TYRES SCREECH

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Oh.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31He really has no idea what he's doing.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34- Total amateur. - Which makes him even more dangerous.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Judith!

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Who are you?

0:15:38 > 0:15:41What do you mean "missing"? I should be out looking for her.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- You should be...- I have got our best men out there searching as we speak.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47The best thing you can do right now is answer a few questions.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Oh, our daughter, Elizabeth. Where's my daughter?

0:15:49 > 0:15:52- She'll be worried sick.- She's staying with her grandmother.

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Right. Can you tell us where you were between 8am and 3pm today?

0:15:57 > 0:15:59I was at work.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03Well, no, you weren't.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05You see, we've already been down the depot.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09Yeah. No, no, well, I was working, just not at the depot.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11I had a meeting in...in Bendigo.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16Right. Was this the meeting that you called in sick for?

0:16:17 > 0:16:19W-Well...

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Would you care to try again?

0:16:22 > 0:16:26Mr Chapman, please, just tell us where you were.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30Then we can concentrate on other leads and find your wife. Yes?

0:16:34 > 0:16:35I...I was with Dulcie.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38- Dulcie have a second name? - Young. Dulcie Young.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40She's a conductress.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43We went to Hepburn for a picnic.

0:16:45 > 0:16:46I see.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48So, you were having an affair...

0:16:48 > 0:16:51- No!- ..and planning to run off with the money?

0:16:51 > 0:16:55- No, no, I'm not running anywhere. I don't even have the money.- Really?

0:16:56 > 0:16:59That's to advertise the Lottery, OK?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01This doesn't make any sense.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03You know what doesn't make sense?

0:17:03 > 0:17:05Is that you just happen to work directly opposite the phone booth

0:17:05 > 0:17:08where the ransom call was made.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10You care to explain that?

0:17:10 > 0:17:13- I... - I think it's best if you

0:17:13 > 0:17:16- accompany the Senior Sergeant down the station.- No, what about Jude?

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Don't worry. We'll keep someone here just in case there is a call.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23We've only had the phone two days.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Mr Weston?

0:17:33 > 0:17:34Yeah?

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Cliff.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39- Cliff, we're looking for Dulcie. - Over there.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Dulcie Young? - That's my name. Don't wear it out!

0:17:46 > 0:17:48Chief Superintendent Carlyle. This is Dr Blake.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51We're investigating the kidnapping of Judith Chapman.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54What, you mean Laurie... er, Mr Chapman's wife?

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Do you know Judith? - Um, no. I've never met her.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00Where were you today between 8am and 3pm?

0:18:00 > 0:18:04Not here. I was rostered on for the evening shift.

0:18:04 > 0:18:05So where were you?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11Look, I really don't have time but we can do this down the station.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14- No, no. I... I can't. I'm... - Dulcie, we're not here to judge you

0:18:14 > 0:18:16or embarrass you.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19We're only interested in finding Judith, all right?

0:18:19 > 0:18:22Now, you need to tell us the truth.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25I suppose he told you?

0:18:27 > 0:18:28Well, I suppose he had to.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33I was with Mr Chapman. Laurie.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36We've slept together.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- We're in love. - Right.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Do you happen to have his home telephone number?

0:18:43 > 0:18:47Um, no, but it's written on his board in the office.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50Look, everybody likes Laurie.

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Laurie never sack anyone, report them or complain?

0:18:54 > 0:18:57No. The only person he complained about was his mother-in-law.

0:19:06 > 0:19:09All considered, Bethy's OK.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13Feeling cooped up, but I thought it best to keep her indoors.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16The kids around here are a bit tougher.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Mrs Henderson, tell me, do you have Laurie and Judith's phone number?

0:19:20 > 0:19:24Yeah, I've got it written down. Somewhere.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Have you given that out to anyone or ever used it yourself?

0:19:27 > 0:19:29No.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32- We don't have a phone and I prefer to pop around.- Right.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Since you've been back in town, you mean?

0:19:35 > 0:19:38Tell me, was that before or after they won the Lottery?

0:19:40 > 0:19:43Are you suggesting I kidnapped my own daughter?

0:19:43 > 0:19:46Oh, of course not, Mrs Henderson. Just trying to ascertain the facts.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51I'd better be getting Bethy something to eat.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Good afternoon.

0:19:55 > 0:19:56Mrs Henderson, if I may.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Did you and Judith have any disagreements?

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Oh, what's he been saying now?

0:20:02 > 0:20:07Well, we'd very much like to hear your side of things. It's only fair.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13Jude and I had a tiff every now and then,

0:20:13 > 0:20:15just like every mother and daughter.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17I'm happy she's risen up in the world.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20But you can't forget where you're from.

0:20:24 > 0:20:27I think it's time to get the press involved.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29- You think that's a good idea? - A public appeal could really work.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31We need all the eyes and ears we can get on this.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33All right. I'll meet you there.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37CAR ENGINE STARTS

0:20:43 > 0:20:45Hey!

0:20:56 > 0:20:59BARKING IN THE BACKGROUND

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Unfortunately, I think it'll be totally out of the question.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09- Oh, Frank. - No, no. Look, we're done here.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11I wanted a public appeal but the answer is no,

0:21:11 > 0:21:13so if you'll excuse me, I have a missing woman to find.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15Tomorrow morning's layout's almost finished.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Of course we'll help, Chief Superintendent.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21Edward, I was just explaining late changes cost us a fortune...

0:21:21 > 0:21:23As the new editor of The Courier,

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I'm fully aware of the costs of the print process.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29- Yes, but our compositors... - The press has a wider social role!

0:21:29 > 0:21:32I imagine the Melbourne papers are hammering on your door.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36Very loudly. We're hoping to find her by tonight but, just in case...

0:21:36 > 0:21:38You need a contingency plan. Of course. Yes.

0:21:38 > 0:21:42Maybe a front page appeal will give the locals the inside running.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Front page? He didn't even ask for a front page!

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Come with me, brief me.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Edward, perhaps you could mention her illness.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51She needs prednisone. I can spell that for you...

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Rose! Get the details off Blake. Thank you.

0:21:53 > 0:21:57Frank, there was a potential suspect outside Irene's after you left.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00Six-foot, stubble, brownish hair.

0:22:00 > 0:22:01Right. I'll get Charlie onto that.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08Edward has lifted profits.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11He knows how to follow up a good story.

0:22:11 > 0:22:15Yes, by doing things like printing the Lottery winner's address!

0:22:15 > 0:22:18Oh, for God's sake, Blake!

0:22:18 > 0:22:20The Lottery gives ordinary people something to aim for, Doctor.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24What ordinary people aim for and what they can get are quite often

0:22:24 > 0:22:28two very, very different things. This is all about greed.

0:22:28 > 0:22:31Everyone in their place! Social order.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33You sound very conservative today, Doctor.

0:22:35 > 0:22:36Do I?

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Not all change is good, Miss Anderson.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45Now, scribble this down for me. Prednisone...

0:22:49 > 0:22:50PHONE RINGS

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Simmons.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30Yes. All right, Mrs Thornton.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33We will keep that in mind. Thank you very much.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35What the hell's going on here?

0:23:35 > 0:23:38This morning's edition has ignited a lot of interest.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40Mainly people saying how terrible it is.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Someone claimed it was the Soviets.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44No real leads, as yet.

0:23:44 > 0:23:49It says here, "The Courier is offering a reward of £100

0:23:49 > 0:23:51"to the first reader with information

0:23:51 > 0:23:53"leading to the rescue of Mrs Chapman."

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Not really what we had in mind.

0:23:55 > 0:23:56We'll be organising a vigilante group next.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59What's going on with the search parties?

0:23:59 > 0:24:01We're finished at the depot and at the house.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04We'll start a sweep of Perry Park, all those caravans next, and then...

0:24:04 > 0:24:07Check the pubs, boarding houses, any vacant blocks.

0:24:07 > 0:24:10And chemists. I want to know if anyone's asking for prednisone.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14And also this, um, chap the doctor was pursuing at Irene's house.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16I saw him outside the Chapman house yesterday morning.

0:24:16 > 0:24:20He fits the description of someone Mrs Gilmore described

0:24:20 > 0:24:25arguing with Judith. Six foot tall, unshaven, brownish hair.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27What happened with Mrs Gilmore?

0:24:27 > 0:24:29Yes, she has the phone number but she's never used it,

0:24:29 > 0:24:31never gave it to anyone.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33Right.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35All right, everyone, listen up.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39Time is running out for Mrs Chapman, so let's keep pushing.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41We can't just sit back and wait for this kidnapper to call back.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44- Understood? - Right, Chief.- You got it, Boss.

0:24:44 > 0:24:45All right.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Laurie Chapman, what about him?

0:24:47 > 0:24:50Well, apparently he was pacing his cell all last night.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Is he still free to go?

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Let me check something first.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01So, according to the Lottery Commissioner,

0:25:01 > 0:25:03under the rules, a prize is paid after 30 days.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06The paper said they'd received the money and there's a photograph.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Just to promote the next draw. Mr Chapman was happy to play along.

0:25:09 > 0:25:10So, he was telling the truth?

0:25:10 > 0:25:14Yes, well, about that, anyway.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Mr Chapman, as part of the release process,

0:25:17 > 0:25:20I have to make sure you haven't sustained any injuries,

0:25:20 > 0:25:22no cuts or abrasions.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24No. Have you seen Elizabeth?

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Yes. She's coping as well as can be expected.

0:25:27 > 0:25:28You're going to pick her up?

0:25:28 > 0:25:31- The best thing I can do now is go find her mother.- Of course.

0:25:31 > 0:25:36Mr Chapman? I'm going to have to have a look at your medical records,

0:25:36 > 0:25:38just check your blood type.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44I have nothing else to hide. Call Dr Spencer. I'll let him know.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52- Lucien, is that you?- Sorry, Jean. I'm just passing through.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02You didn't come home last night.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06No. Um...

0:26:06 > 0:26:09I'm sorry, Jean, honestly. I should've called you.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12- It's this kidnapping business. - Yes, I know. I've seen the paper.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14- The poor little girl? - Yes.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16"The victim's ten-year-old daughter

0:26:16 > 0:26:19"was rescued from the scene by an observant neighbour."

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Marjorie Gilmore.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24Observant? Certainly. Not exactly caring.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26She was Margie Jones when I knew her.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29She married the owner of the factory where she used to work.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32I'd heard that she'd taken on some airs and graces.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34- What were you looking for? - Prednisone.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36I thought you might need this.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Oh! I don't know what I'd do without you.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Neither do I but you'd be doing it wearing yesterday's shirt.

0:26:41 > 0:26:42HE LAUGHS

0:26:42 > 0:26:45The kidnapper threatened to chop her up.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Where does The Courier get that kind of detail?

0:26:47 > 0:26:51Chief Superintendent Carlyle thinks the press need incentives.

0:26:52 > 0:26:58He actually said, "Tie her down so she can get chopped up."

0:26:58 > 0:26:59"Tie her down."

0:27:01 > 0:27:03Now, why would he say it like that?

0:27:07 > 0:27:09The phone box.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13We've got a phone.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32'If you don't do what I say,

0:27:32 > 0:27:34'I'll tie her down so she gets chopped up.'

0:27:38 > 0:27:39TRAIN HORN BLARES

0:28:23 > 0:28:24TRAIN HORN HONKS

0:28:31 > 0:28:34WIND HOWLS

0:29:06 > 0:29:08WOMAN MOANS

0:29:10 > 0:29:11SHE WHIMPERS

0:29:21 > 0:29:22HE GROANS

0:29:41 > 0:29:46- Are you sure you're OK? - Oh, I'm fine. No concussion.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49Hobart says the old bloke's name was Bluey. Homeless.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Always hanging around here watching the trains.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54This time he saw something he shouldn't have.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56You sure I can't get Dr Harvey for you?

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Frank, I'm fine. Thank you, though.

0:30:11 > 0:30:14Looks like he may have heard some of what you said.

0:30:14 > 0:30:15Would that have helped?

0:30:15 > 0:30:19Painkillers. Useless, I'm afraid.

0:30:19 > 0:30:23Boss? They found nothing in the yards - no witnesses, no tracks.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27We'll have to expand the search. They can't have just disappeared.

0:30:27 > 0:30:29Is it true that you missed Mrs Chapman?

0:30:29 > 0:30:32It's not the time, Miss Anderson. Not the time.

0:30:51 > 0:30:52- HE GROANS - Lucien?

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Everything all right?

0:30:54 > 0:30:55Jean.

0:30:55 > 0:30:58Been a very interesting morning.

0:31:05 > 0:31:06Poor chap.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10He was homeless, innocent.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Uninvolved.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14If I'd just...

0:31:14 > 0:31:16Oh, I nearly had her, Jean.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18I-I-I very nearly had her.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21You're doing the best that you can.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57Cause of death - asphyxiation. Airway's been compressed.

0:31:57 > 0:32:01There's damage to the larynx and the hyoid bone might've been fractured.

0:32:01 > 0:32:03- Strangulation? - Yes.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07The marks are quite diffuse. No lines or cuts.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09He was probably...

0:32:10 > 0:32:11..strangled by hand.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13We'll know for certain in the morning,

0:32:13 > 0:32:15once the bruising's come up.

0:32:15 > 0:32:16Yes.

0:32:16 > 0:32:20What did you see, Bluey? Hmm?

0:32:22 > 0:32:24A woman tied up, you tried to help.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27He came and he had to kill you.

0:32:28 > 0:32:33But the hunger for air would've caused you to struggle.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Anything under the fingernails?

0:32:37 > 0:32:38Plenty of dirt but no blood.

0:32:38 > 0:32:43I'm still examining his clothes. They're very worn and dirty.

0:32:43 > 0:32:45There's no...

0:32:48 > 0:32:51The last thing those gloves would've grasped

0:32:51 > 0:32:54would've been the killer himself. What are they?

0:32:57 > 0:33:01Oh, little diamonds and little clubs,

0:33:01 > 0:33:04like...like what you'd see in a deck of playing cards.

0:33:04 > 0:33:06Lucky symbols.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09Not for Bluey.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Davis says he's walked the gardens, Victoria Park, the lookout.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14- Still nothing.- All right.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17Tell him to move to the highway. Check every shed, every humpy.

0:33:19 > 0:33:23Mrs Beasley! Um, the doctor is still on his way.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25I know. I thought you might all be hungry.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31- Very thoughtful of you. - Has anyone called?

0:33:31 > 0:33:35No, not the, um, call we were hoping for.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38Oh. Poor woman. Kept me awake, thinking about it.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41Did Mr Chapman buy the lottery ticket himself?

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Um, as far as I know, yes.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46It's just that, when I bought my ticket,

0:33:46 > 0:33:49I noticed most of the customers were women.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51The ladies were all talking about it.

0:33:51 > 0:33:52But it's probably nothing.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54It's actually a very good question.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57Bill, get on to the Lottery Commissioner and ask him.

0:33:57 > 0:34:00Ah! Lucien, what do you have for me?

0:34:00 > 0:34:04Not much, I'm afraid. We do have something.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07We found these in Bluey's gloves.

0:34:07 > 0:34:11He would've been clinging to his killer,

0:34:11 > 0:34:12clawing at his clothes and look.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15Some of these are diamond-shaped, some club-shaped.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17I have absolutely no idea what they are.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19What's he saying, Bill?

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Mrs Chapman bought the winning ticket. It's in her name.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24Hang on. That's not what the press said.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27- Not what Laurie said either. - Right.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Well, these little buggers are driving me mad.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34I think I know what they are.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41Those are chads. From bus tickets. Why?

0:34:41 > 0:34:45They were found at the building where Judith was being held.

0:34:45 > 0:34:47Dulcie's very sweet on you.

0:34:47 > 0:34:52I mean, you're her manager, ex-footy champ, everyone's hero.

0:34:52 > 0:34:54I'll go so far as to say she idolises you.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57Dulcie didn't do this. These are all over the buses.

0:34:57 > 0:35:01Dulcie says that you slept with her, that you're having an affair.

0:35:01 > 0:35:02- You're in love!- That's not true.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Who bought the bloody lottery ticket, Laurie?

0:35:08 > 0:35:10All right, it was Judith. Judith bought the ticket.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12She doesn't like the spotlight.

0:35:12 > 0:35:16So, the cheque's in her name? You two have a joint account?

0:35:16 > 0:35:18Yes. Why?

0:35:18 > 0:35:21With her out of the way, you bank the cheque, run off with Dulcie.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23But I told you, Jude doesn't have the money yet.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26No, but she found out about Dulcie, so you had to act now.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29There's nothing to find out.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31I'm not sleeping with Dulcie.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33Why would she say you were?

0:35:38 > 0:35:41Because I changed my mind.

0:35:41 > 0:35:42We argued.

0:35:43 > 0:35:45It was a long drive back to Ballarat, believe me.

0:35:47 > 0:35:51Right. So, just the two of you? No-one else saw you?

0:35:51 > 0:35:53Yeah.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57His alibi rests with Miss Young.

0:35:57 > 0:35:59Neither of them can agree on what happened.

0:35:59 > 0:36:03Yes, and if his blood matches what we found at the crime scene,

0:36:03 > 0:36:05well, we may well have our man.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08- You're an idiot, Rod! - Shut up, woman!

0:36:08 > 0:36:10Hey, hey! Enough! Enough!

0:36:10 > 0:36:14We were at the chemist. We saw him running out of the bank.

0:36:14 > 0:36:16Tried to pass a cheque as Laurie Chapman.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19Name's Rod Brunel. He met her outside.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22Mr Brunel, let me take a look at that nose of yours.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25- Does it bleed often? - No, it doesn't.

0:36:25 > 0:36:28- And it wouldn't have bled now except he...- Hey!

0:36:28 > 0:36:31All right. Just... Just give me a minute.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35There we are.

0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Nothing's broken. - All right.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40You and I, let's have a little chat, Mr Brunel.

0:36:47 > 0:36:49Bill, could you get Dr Harvey to test his blood type?

0:36:49 > 0:36:52Also, Mr Chapman's medical records may have come in.

0:36:52 > 0:36:57Now, if either of them are not type O,

0:36:57 > 0:36:59might be able to eliminate someone.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01- OK, Doc.- Thank you.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04KNOCKING AT DOOR

0:37:06 > 0:37:08Miss Henderson?

0:37:12 > 0:37:13Irene?

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Is anybody here?

0:37:23 > 0:37:24Hello.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32So, you're Elizabeth?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36Rose.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40Where's Grandma?

0:37:40 > 0:37:43- She went out. - To lunch?

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Early this morning, before breakfast.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48She went looking for her friend.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57Have you got a bag?

0:37:57 > 0:37:58Good.

0:37:58 > 0:38:02Better go grab it. I'm going to take you somewhere safe.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04Is that all right with you?

0:38:08 > 0:38:11'I didn't know the cheque was forged.'

0:38:11 > 0:38:13Irene said Jude gave it to her.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16Well, I don't blame you for trying. Really, I don't.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19I mean, your girlfriend drags you all the way to Ballarat

0:38:19 > 0:38:21on the promise of a big payday

0:38:21 > 0:38:23and Jude turns around and says, "Pfft! No."

0:38:23 > 0:38:25I mean, that would make my blood boil.

0:38:25 > 0:38:26I didn't touch Jude.

0:38:27 > 0:38:30And yet you ran off yesterday afternoon.

0:38:32 > 0:38:33So, this morning, you go out.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36Now, you were either off forging a cheque

0:38:36 > 0:38:39or you were strangling a man to death

0:38:39 > 0:38:41and moving Judith to a new location.

0:38:41 > 0:38:42- Which one was it?- What?

0:38:42 > 0:38:45I swear, I-I don't even know where Jude is.

0:38:45 > 0:38:46Irene says, "Here's the cheque.

0:38:46 > 0:38:49"Jude's given it to me. Let's go and cash it."

0:38:49 > 0:38:52- Yeah. - And you believed her?

0:38:52 > 0:38:56Why? Ah! Because they're mother and daughter.

0:38:56 > 0:38:57Exactly. They're family.

0:38:57 > 0:39:01Even though you argued with Judith over money

0:39:01 > 0:39:03on her doorstep only last week!

0:39:03 > 0:39:05I suppose the old biddy next door told you.

0:39:05 > 0:39:09I bet she didn't mention that she got me to hock her silverware.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12Too proud for the local pawnshop.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14She wanted me to fence it in Melbourne.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19You certainly have a way with the ladies, Rod.

0:39:21 > 0:39:22You were with Irene a while back.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Suddenly, you reappear after her daughter wins the lottery.

0:39:26 > 0:39:28Fancy that, Frank.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31But when it stopped looking like it might pay dividends,

0:39:31 > 0:39:34you went to Judith directly.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36And when that didn't work, you kidnapped her.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40It was tearing Irene up, arguing with Jude.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44I went around to explain - and, yeah, OK, to ask her for money.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47Jude, she didn't even want to know, and then she disappeared.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52It wasn't me!

0:39:55 > 0:39:57Rod bungled passing a cheque.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00You really think he could pull off a kidnapping?

0:40:00 > 0:40:03And all this happened whilst Judith is still missing.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08You think I'm not worried sick about my daughter?

0:40:08 > 0:40:10Well, you have a funny way of showing it.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15Irene, did you know Rod had been to see Judith about the money?

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Afterwards.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20Yeah.

0:40:20 > 0:40:24Shouldn't have done it. But he shouldn't have had to.

0:40:24 > 0:40:27Not that it's Jude's fault either.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29She wanted to help you?

0:40:31 > 0:40:33Then she changed her mind.

0:40:33 > 0:40:35She said it was all tied up.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38That was Laurie talking.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43I'll charge Rod for the cheque. I've got nothing much on Irene.

0:40:43 > 0:40:48Mrs Gilmore does have money troubles but, really, she's hardly likely.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50- As for Laurie... - Ah, sir?

0:40:50 > 0:40:53Dr Harvey tested the blood.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55Rod Brunel is type O.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58Ah! Same as the blood we found in the kitchen.

0:40:58 > 0:41:02Yes. However, she's received Laurie Chapman's medical records, as well.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04He's type O also.

0:41:04 > 0:41:09Ah, um, excuse us? Look who I found all on her own.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11We stopped for an ice cream.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13The police will take care of you now.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16The doctor is very nice, the Chief Super is nice

0:41:16 > 0:41:19and Sergeant Davis, well, he's a bit of an odd duck,

0:41:19 > 0:41:21but he's all right, too.

0:41:23 > 0:41:26Jean? Jean!

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Lucien! I've saved some lunch for you.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32How lovely. Is there enough for two?

0:41:34 > 0:41:36Well, of course there is.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42Not very hungry?

0:41:42 > 0:41:45No, but that was lovely.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47Thank you, Mrs Blake.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50You're very welcome. You've got lovely manners.

0:41:50 > 0:41:52And I'm Mrs Beasley.

0:41:52 > 0:41:54The doctor and I aren't married.

0:41:54 > 0:41:55Why not?

0:41:55 > 0:41:57Well...

0:41:59 > 0:42:01..we used to be married to other people

0:42:01 > 0:42:05and now we live together so that I can help him with his work.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Do you love him?

0:42:09 > 0:42:10KNOCKING AT DOOR

0:42:11 > 0:42:13I'll get it!

0:42:15 > 0:42:17I think perhaps we should clean up these dishes

0:42:17 > 0:42:19and go into the garden.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21- What do you think? - OK.

0:42:28 > 0:42:30- Lucien. - Frank.

0:42:31 > 0:42:35- How's young Elizabeth? - Fine. She's just having lunch.

0:42:35 > 0:42:37Very good.

0:42:37 > 0:42:38Um...

0:42:39 > 0:42:40The press.

0:42:43 > 0:42:47Fact of life these days, but also a double-edged sword.

0:42:47 > 0:42:48Look...

0:42:50 > 0:42:52..Melbourne is getting very restless.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54They want me to charge someone today.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56Melbourne!

0:42:56 > 0:42:58This is all about sweeping everything aside

0:42:58 > 0:43:00before that second lottery draw.

0:43:00 > 0:43:01Everything points to Laurie Chapman -

0:43:01 > 0:43:04the chads, the phone box, the derelict building -

0:43:04 > 0:43:05they all say "bus depot".

0:43:05 > 0:43:08A lot of people work there. He's the right blood type.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10- It's a very common blood type. - He knew the phone number.

0:43:10 > 0:43:14Yes, but we can't definitively prove who knew it and who didn't.

0:43:14 > 0:43:15Lucien, his alibi is full of holes -

0:43:15 > 0:43:18unaccounted for when those calls came in

0:43:18 > 0:43:20and then there were no calls when he was locked up.

0:43:20 > 0:43:22No calls after he was released.

0:43:22 > 0:43:25He lied to police and he has the most to gain.

0:43:25 > 0:43:29This kidnapping turns to a murder, he inherits all the money himself

0:43:29 > 0:43:31and for his mistress.

0:43:31 > 0:43:33I'm going to have to charge him.

0:43:33 > 0:43:36Frank, if we charge the wrong person

0:43:36 > 0:43:39and Judith, in fact, does die,

0:43:39 > 0:43:41it will be a disaster!

0:43:41 > 0:43:43You think I don't know that?

0:43:46 > 0:43:49- Superintendent. - Mrs Beasley.

0:43:52 > 0:43:53Ooh!

0:43:53 > 0:43:56- There's a random magic wand! - Ah!

0:43:56 > 0:43:58It can make the grass turn into...

0:43:58 > 0:44:00What about that little treasure?

0:44:00 > 0:44:04She'll become a ward of the state or perhaps go to Irene.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10Lucien, do we have any new evidence, any information whatsoever

0:44:10 > 0:44:12that can point us to our man?

0:44:22 > 0:44:24Not yet.

0:44:24 > 0:44:26- Where's Elizabeth?! - Well, I don't have her.

0:44:26 > 0:44:29- I know you've got her! - Oh! Oh!

0:44:29 > 0:44:32I told you! Why would I be looking after your granddaughter?!

0:44:32 > 0:44:34Oh! Bloody snob!

0:44:34 > 0:44:37You know, I knew you when you were as common as muck!

0:44:37 > 0:44:40Oh! Your own daughter doesn't want anything to do with you!

0:44:40 > 0:44:42Ladies, please!

0:44:42 > 0:44:45Oh, Doctor! She was trying to get into my home.

0:44:45 > 0:44:48- She has got my Elizabeth! - She doesn't, Irene.

0:44:48 > 0:44:50I promise you, Elizabeth's perfectly fine.

0:44:50 > 0:44:51But Judith is still missing

0:44:51 > 0:44:54and here you are fighting like naughty children!

0:44:54 > 0:44:55Now, Irene, please!

0:44:58 > 0:45:00Thank you so much, Doctor.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02Please, feel free to use my phone to call the police.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04Oh, I'm sure that won't be necessary.

0:45:04 > 0:45:07Mrs Henderson's just worried about her family.

0:45:07 > 0:45:10Oh, well, if you don't call the police, I will.

0:45:10 > 0:45:12It's people who get above their station

0:45:12 > 0:45:14that cause the trouble in the world!

0:45:14 > 0:45:15I see.

0:45:15 > 0:45:19And of course you speak with some authority, given your background.

0:45:20 > 0:45:24I thought you, of all people, might understand.

0:45:26 > 0:45:31I don't need people in the area to remind me of where I came from.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36Mrs Gi...

0:45:36 > 0:45:37Marjorie...

0:45:39 > 0:45:41..I know things are...

0:45:41 > 0:45:43difficult for you at the moment.

0:45:43 > 0:45:48But, quite honestly, it's the Rod Brunels of this world

0:45:48 > 0:45:50who aren't to be trusted, not people like the Chapmans.

0:45:50 > 0:45:52And do you know what? If they make it through this,

0:45:52 > 0:45:55they're going to need a good neighbour.

0:45:55 > 0:45:57And perhaps you will, too.

0:46:05 > 0:46:06Am I under arrest?

0:46:06 > 0:46:08No.

0:46:08 > 0:46:11Well, are you going to arrest her?

0:46:11 > 0:46:13You know she doesn't have anything to do with it.

0:46:13 > 0:46:15Yeah, I know.

0:46:15 > 0:46:19I just... I had to take it out on someone.

0:46:20 > 0:46:22And I can understand that.

0:46:23 > 0:46:25She's right, you know.

0:46:25 > 0:46:27Jude doesn't want much to do with me.

0:46:27 > 0:46:30Oh, I'm sure that isn't true.

0:46:30 > 0:46:35I spent years taking her to doctors and somehow she pulled through

0:46:35 > 0:46:38and... And now, she's...

0:46:38 > 0:46:40she's made a new life for herself,

0:46:40 > 0:46:42better than I ever did.

0:46:43 > 0:46:45I'm proud of her.

0:46:45 > 0:46:47And I know...

0:46:47 > 0:46:49I know I don't fit in.

0:46:51 > 0:46:53But without her, I...

0:46:54 > 0:46:57..I'll be left behind.

0:46:59 > 0:47:02And no-one wants to be left behind.

0:47:03 > 0:47:05Irene, I need to make a phone call.

0:47:08 > 0:47:09SHE SIGHS

0:47:18 > 0:47:21Funny thing, jealousy, isn't it...

0:47:21 > 0:47:22Dulcie?

0:47:22 > 0:47:24You can't really envy someone

0:47:24 > 0:47:28without being close to them somehow, can you?

0:47:28 > 0:47:32I mean, we know you were envious of Judith

0:47:32 > 0:47:36and we know you were with Laurie when the kidnapper first called.

0:47:36 > 0:47:37What are you saying?

0:47:37 > 0:47:40You told anyone who'd listen about the two of you

0:47:40 > 0:47:45but you never actually slept with him, did you?

0:47:45 > 0:47:47- No.- No.

0:47:47 > 0:47:51You lied because he rejected you.

0:47:51 > 0:47:53I didn't kidnap Judith...

0:47:53 > 0:47:55Now, rejection, that's an interesting thing.

0:47:55 > 0:47:57I think Laurie...

0:47:57 > 0:48:00I think Laurie left someone behind too,

0:48:00 > 0:48:03long before you arrived on the scene.

0:48:05 > 0:48:08Cliff has known Laurie since school.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10What's he on about?

0:48:10 > 0:48:13How's your nose? I thought you had a cold.

0:48:13 > 0:48:18When we first saw you, you had to check that it wasn't bleeding,

0:48:18 > 0:48:23like it did when you snatched Judith and she slammed her head into it.

0:48:23 > 0:48:25I've got no reason to hurt Mrs Chapman.

0:48:25 > 0:48:27No. No.

0:48:27 > 0:48:29But what about Laurie?

0:48:29 > 0:48:31Hmm?

0:48:31 > 0:48:36You played football with him before he hit the big-time.

0:48:36 > 0:48:38You worked with him, side by side,

0:48:38 > 0:48:42but he was the one who got promoted.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45I mean, for Heaven's sake, you've known him all your life

0:48:45 > 0:48:46and yet...

0:48:48 > 0:48:50..he never introduced you to Judith.

0:48:52 > 0:48:55And the Lottery? Well...

0:48:55 > 0:48:57that was the last straw.

0:48:57 > 0:48:58Cliff?

0:48:58 > 0:49:00I dunno what he's talking about.

0:49:00 > 0:49:02You thought he was your mate.

0:49:04 > 0:49:06He just...

0:49:08 > 0:49:10..left you behind.

0:49:11 > 0:49:14Judith. Where is she?

0:49:16 > 0:49:17S...

0:49:23 > 0:49:26Fell out of the sky for bloody Laurie. That's...

0:49:26 > 0:49:29- Why did he have it all? - Cliff, we make our own luck in life.

0:49:29 > 0:49:32Now, you listen to me. Where is she?

0:49:36 > 0:49:38Oh!

0:49:38 > 0:49:39Come on! Come on!

0:49:46 > 0:49:49Cliff, we already have you for the murder of Bluey Watson.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51Self-defence! He attacked me!

0:49:51 > 0:49:53And now you've just as good as admitted

0:49:53 > 0:49:56- to the kidnapping, you stupid bugger.- I'm not stupid!

0:49:56 > 0:49:58No. No, you're not.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01You're not stupid.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04You made a clean getaway, left no clues.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06It was a very, very clever plan.

0:50:06 > 0:50:10All you had to do was tell us where to leave the money

0:50:10 > 0:50:14and we'd have exchanged it for Judith gladly -

0:50:14 > 0:50:18as long as she was alive.

0:50:20 > 0:50:22Is that why you won't tell us where she is?

0:50:22 > 0:50:24No. No!

0:50:25 > 0:50:28Cos you killed her. Isn't that right?

0:50:28 > 0:50:29I didn't murder anyone!

0:50:29 > 0:50:32She got sick. I tried to help her! I did!

0:50:32 > 0:50:34Look, she got pains.

0:50:34 > 0:50:36I gave her a powder.

0:50:36 > 0:50:38Then she started vomiting

0:50:38 > 0:50:40and shaking and...

0:50:40 > 0:50:42then she just faded away.

0:50:42 > 0:50:45I never meant for that, I never meant for that!

0:50:45 > 0:50:47Hang on, what you're describing

0:50:47 > 0:50:49is a thing we call an "Addisonian crisis",

0:50:49 > 0:50:52where a patient slips into a type of coma.

0:50:52 > 0:50:54She might still be alive.

0:50:54 > 0:50:55I didn't kill her?

0:50:55 > 0:50:59She was in pain, convulsing and then nothing, yes?

0:50:59 > 0:51:02She wasn't moving.

0:51:02 > 0:51:04Cliff, are you even certain she's dead?

0:51:07 > 0:51:09You might still be able to save her.

0:51:09 > 0:51:11Now, don't you want that?

0:51:11 > 0:51:12Don't let her die now.

0:52:27 > 0:52:29You were right, Lucien.

0:52:33 > 0:52:36The truth is, I had an unfair advantage.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38Yes? And what was that?

0:52:38 > 0:52:41I know what it's like to lose a family.

0:52:44 > 0:52:45Thank you, Doctor.

0:52:45 > 0:52:48You are very welcome, Elizabeth.

0:52:48 > 0:52:51Would you say thank you to Mrs Blake, too?

0:52:51 > 0:52:55Ah, well, the thing with Jean...

0:52:57 > 0:52:59Of course I will.

0:53:12 > 0:53:14A few details and a comment.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28- What, this is it?- Yes.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30The perpetrator, all the details, an exclusive statement.

0:53:30 > 0:53:34But where's the photo? The happy family reunited?

0:53:34 > 0:53:38Carlyle didn't let me in the room but this...

0:53:38 > 0:53:40I'm selling the sizzle,

0:53:40 > 0:53:42not just the steak here, Rose.

0:53:42 > 0:53:46- If you're not up to the job... - I am. Trust me. I am.

0:53:48 > 0:53:50Type these up, please.

0:53:50 > 0:53:52You, come with me.

0:54:08 > 0:54:10Doing well, thankfully.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14I'd say she can expect to make a full recovery.

0:54:14 > 0:54:17Oh, thank goodness you got to her in time.

0:54:17 > 0:54:18Well, we were lucky.

0:54:18 > 0:54:21And that little girl still has her family tonight because of you.

0:54:30 > 0:54:33Jean, would you mind, um...

0:54:33 > 0:54:38Would you mind, um, just waiting here, just...just for a moment?

0:54:38 > 0:54:39All right.

0:54:40 > 0:54:41Right.

0:55:01 > 0:55:04Jean, would you mind standing for me, please?

0:55:10 > 0:55:13Actually, do you know what? Let's... Let's have a seat.

0:55:23 > 0:55:26Jean, this was my mother's ring.

0:55:26 > 0:55:27Lucien!

0:55:31 > 0:55:33And I would very much...

0:55:36 > 0:55:38Oh! That's probably Charlie.

0:55:38 > 0:55:41Hold that. I'll be right back.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Perfect timing, Charlie.

0:56:01 > 0:56:04Lucien? Who is it?

0:56:11 > 0:56:12My wife.
