0:00:40 > 0:00:41Did you remove these?
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Had to. She ran in and wouldn't come out again.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49# Well, I saw my baby walkin'
0:01:49 > 0:01:52# With another man today
0:01:52 > 0:01:55# When I asked her "What's the matter?"
0:01:55 > 0:01:58# This is what I heard her say... #
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Hey! Wait for me!
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Give me your hand.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04OK!
0:02:04 > 0:02:07# See you later, alligator... #
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Thank you!
0:02:09 > 0:02:11You're welcome.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15I can't be late on my first day, can I?
0:02:15 > 0:02:16Your first day?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21A police woman?
0:02:21 > 0:02:25At your service. What do you think? Do I look the part?
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Lord, yes. Criminals of Birmingham beware.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41You know, me so scared on my first day in England,
0:02:41 > 0:02:44me want to turn around and catch the boat right back home again.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47But now, me wear three jumpers in the wintertime,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49so me feel right at home.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50THEY LAUGH
0:02:53 > 0:02:55# See you later, alligator
0:02:55 > 0:02:59# After a while, crocodile

0:03:11 > 0:03:14# See you later, alligator
0:03:14 > 0:03:17# So long, that's all
0:03:17 > 0:03:20# Goodbye! #
0:03:22 > 0:03:27Take him down to the cells till he sobers up.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Morning, Sergeant, I'm...
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Hey, now, right, I warned you two, didn't I?
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Where do you think you are?
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Back row of the pictures?
0:03:36 > 0:03:40You, move over there. Go on, right till the end.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44And stay there.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Ah, you must be WPC Dawson.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Yes, Sergeant. - Sergeant Pratt. Come on through.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54I'll take you to the Chief, he's expecting you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Thank you, Sergeant. It's lucky I'm here in one piece.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59I nearly got flattened by a police car just now.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Not the best start, is it?
0:04:01 > 0:04:03GIRL GIGGLES
0:04:05 > 0:04:09Move your backside, lad, or I'll move it for you!
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Any more funny business and I'm locking you both in separate cells.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18What were they arrested for, Sergeant?
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Arrested? They're the victims.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25They were impressed with you at Divisional Headquarters.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Thank you, sir.- Why volunteer for a post in Brinford?
0:04:27 > 0:04:29I grew up around here, sir.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32I live with my mum and dad, so it's sort of perfect, really.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Well, perfect might be pushing it.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Anyway, I'm glad I won't have to take the daily train
0:04:36 > 0:04:38to Birmingham any more, now my training's over.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40I'll be honest with you, Dawson.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Recruiting you wasn't my idea.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46I have a team of good men here, but they're few in number.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49They haven't the time or resources to concern themselves
0:04:49 > 0:04:50with your safety.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- That's all right, sir, I wouldn't expect...- Let me finish.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Whether you need protection or not is beside the point,
0:04:55 > 0:04:57men are naturally inclined to offer it.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00So it's best for you to avoid situations that lead to
0:05:00 > 0:05:02them being...distracted.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Yes, sir.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07I expect you had female-only offices and facilities in Birmingham.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09As you can imagine, we've hardly the space for that here.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12But we've made provision for you as best we can.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Honestly, you could stick me in a broom cupboard,
0:05:14 > 0:05:16- I'm just grateful to be here. - Well...
0:05:16 > 0:05:19What I mean to say is, thank you, sir, for this opportunity
0:05:19 > 0:05:21and I'm ready to go about my duties as soon as possible, sir.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Well, if the men need help with women or children,
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- you're to take that off their hands. - Yes, sir.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Never forget that your sole responsibility is to support the men,
0:05:31 > 0:05:34so they can get on with the job of real policing.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39- Oi!- Don't leave 'em sitting there, then!
0:05:39 > 0:05:42I'd rather have chocolates sitting on me desk than you.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44You only left 'em out to make me jealous.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46It's not working, you know.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50All right, it's working. Who gave 'em ya?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52That would be telling.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55I bet whoever he is doesn't have a Triumph Tiger.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59When are you going to come for a ride with me?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01When you drive something proper, like a car.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03HE LAUGHS
0:06:03 > 0:06:06I'll get you on my bike yet, Cathy Sinclair, you see if I don't.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11Oh! I just typed the same sentence twice.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15I hear the new WPC's arrived. What's she like?
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- Coulson, what are you doing? - Nothing, sir.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Evidently. Make yourself useful and show Dawson her office.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Yes, sir.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30How come she gets her own office?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33I need those letters sent out today, Miss Sinclair.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44This actually is a broom cupboard.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Handy for keeping the place clean though, eh?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Will I get my own telephone, do you think?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Not likely, we'd never get you off it.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Well, if I get lonely I can always talk to myself, I suppose.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- You're a funny one, aren't you? - What do you mean?
0:07:05 > 0:07:07SHE COUGHS
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Just take a seat here, Mr Marsh.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15DI Burns? This is WPC Dawson, just started today.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Good to meet you, sir.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Likewise. Your timing couldn't be better.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Do you know where the teapot is?
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Sir?- It's just in the kitchen.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26How many sugars?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Two. Actually, make it four.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Um, yes, sir.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34A day like today calls for four, I reckon.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- Cigarette?- No, thanks.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Sit tight. I'll be right back.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41So he grabbed your purse and ran off down St James Street.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Fenton. There's been a sighting, 'bout ten minutes ago.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- Where?- Kenrick Road.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Right, everybody to the courtyard, that's a double!
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Looks like we found your bag-snatcher.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Just kidding!
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Don't worry, we'll be in touch if anything turns up.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03That's it. Through there.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Where is everyone?
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Everyone was ordered to the courtyard, miss.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18He said on the double.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Sorry, didn't hear the order!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Um, Sergeant Fenton?
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Shut the doors! We haven't got all day!
0:08:52 > 0:08:54BELL RINGS
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Thanks for making a statement, Mr Marsh.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05I can get someone to drive you home, if you like.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08If you can call it that. I live on a canal boat.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09Oh.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- PC Hunt.- Yes, sir?- could you drop Mr Marsh off at...?
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Where's your boat?
0:09:16 > 0:09:19It's still moored up near the mine, for now anyway.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24There's no part of the country I haven't stopped in,
0:09:24 > 0:09:25one time or another.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I like to walk the hills and countryside.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Have you ever collected wild flowers, Detective Burns?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Collected?- Pressed.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37You don't need a proper flower press, a good solid book will do.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Can't say I have.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42I'm just an amateur, really.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47You find the rarest species of plants where people don't often go.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I'll be off then.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Can you tell if it was a boy or a girl?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01We haven't examined the remains yet, Mr Marsh.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04But it was a child, wasn't it?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07You did the right thing calling it in.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35Right, listen up. We approach as quietly as possible.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Spread yourselves out. Cover all the exits.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39And remember, lads, they could be armed.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Who's this?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Her name's Dawson, Sergeant. She's the new WPC.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53I can see that. What's she doing here?
0:10:53 > 0:10:55She just got in the van, Sergeant.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Brilliant. Maybe Cathy should've come along too.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00And Glenda the tea lady. Get back in the van.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02I won't get in the way, Sergeant, honest.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05No, you won't. Because you'll be in the van.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Don't move till we get back. Right, you ready?
0:11:11 > 0:11:12Yes, Sergeant.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20# Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
0:11:20 > 0:11:22# Come on, get rhythm... #
0:11:22 > 0:11:26A 60/40 split. Daylight robbery is what it is.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Hardly worth my while. I hope you know that.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Do you want them or what?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33But you know, obviously, as your mate...
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Everybody stay where you are!
0:11:36 > 0:11:38# A little shoeshine boy never gets low down
0:11:38 > 0:11:40# But he's got the dirtiest job in town
0:11:40 > 0:11:41# Bendin' low at the peoples' feet
0:11:41 > 0:11:44# On the windy corner of the dirty street
0:11:44 > 0:11:45WHISTLES BLOW
0:11:45 > 0:11:46# Get rhythm
0:11:46 > 0:11:48# When you get the blues
0:11:48 > 0:11:50# It only costs a dime Just a nickel a shoe
0:11:50 > 0:11:52# It does 1 million worth of good for you
0:11:52 > 0:11:59# Get rhythm when you get the blues. #
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- Drop the bag.- Don't be like that. - I said drop it.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Look, I had nothing to do with the hijacking, I swear.
0:12:19 > 0:12:20I was just helping to flog the fags.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23You know me, I wouldn't get involved in no violence.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Tell it to the judge. - Wait, Fenton, Fenton! Please! Don't!
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Keep your voice down.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- You don't want to arrest me, not now.- Oh, don't I?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I'm close to something big.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'm serious, if this pays off you'll be a hero.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37What you talking about?
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Bank job. All right? Big one.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Week from now, maybe two, but it's definitely happening.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45And you're in on it?
0:12:45 > 0:12:47I told you I don't do nothing with guns.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49But there's this kid I know, right,
0:12:49 > 0:12:51he's trying to make a name for himself.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55I've done him some favours and he trusts me, all right, enough to talk.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58I'm no good to you if I'm banged up for this, now am I?
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Hey. Stop! Police!
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Hey!
0:13:15 > 0:13:18I should've come with you, Sergeant. He wouldn't have given me the slip.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20I could still outrun you, lad, don't you worry.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Hey. Stop!
0:13:22 > 0:13:23SHE SCREAMS
0:13:23 > 0:13:25THEY LAUGH
0:13:29 > 0:13:30It's all right.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32I'm OK.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34All right.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39What did the pathologist say?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41He confirmed it was a boy, about six or seven.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Evidence of rickets.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Found that in his pocket.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49Had to scrape a fair bit off it, but you can still make out the date.
0:13:49 > 0:13:521923. Think he could've been down there that long?
0:13:52 > 0:13:53Maybe.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Or he just had an old coin on him.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Did the pathologist give a cause of death?
0:13:58 > 0:14:02- He said he'd call.- Any theories? - The skull was fractured.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07Could be he crawled into the tunnel somehow and fell in the dark.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Poor kid.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Yeah.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Next time I give you an order you'll do as you're told.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- Understood?- Yes, Sergeant. - Go and clean yourself up.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21- What happened to her? - She picked the wrong job.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22HE LAUGHS
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Brinford Police, Sergeant Pratt speaking.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Oh, thank goodness it's you!
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Ah, Mrs Pemberton. What can I do for you?
0:14:31 > 0:14:34My Hector's run away again! I don't know what to do!
0:14:34 > 0:14:36I'm sure it's nothing to worry about,
0:14:36 > 0:14:38he always comes home of his own accord.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40But anything could happen to him!
0:14:40 > 0:14:41Third time this week.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Tell her we'll send someone right away.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45- What?- Just tell her.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Oh.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53Mrs Pemberton? I'm WPC Dawson.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55I was told I'd be sent an officer.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59Don't worry, I'm just as qualified and twice as determined.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02I believe you reported a runaway by the name of Hector.
0:15:02 > 0:15:03Yes.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08How old is he?
0:15:08 > 0:15:10I explained all of this on the telephone.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12I just need a few extra details.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I'm told this isn't the first time he's run off.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16And I'm worried sick! What if he runs into traffic?
0:15:16 > 0:15:18I won't let that happen, Mrs Pemberton.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Could you describe him to me?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Well, he has sandy-coloured hair.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30He looks the way you'd expect him to, really.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Right.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Perhaps you have a photograph?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Well, I'll have a look.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41'Will a painting do?'
0:15:41 > 0:15:43A painting?
0:15:43 > 0:15:44I did it myself.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Had a devil of a time getting him to sit still.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55Hilarious. Grown men. Nothing better to do.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13Poor little thing, being left out in the rain like that.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Come on, Charlie, love.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35Hey boy. Hello.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59Like what? Torn her nylons again?
0:16:59 > 0:17:01- Yeah, or broken a nail. - HE CHUCKLES

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- I hear you let Brody and his friend go.- And?
0:19:07 > 0:19:10It's just I thought... because of the cigarettes.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27No, never mind that.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29You said you would finish work an hour ago.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30I had to lay the table myself.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Oh, I'm sorry, Mum. Here, sit down.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It must be really hard work laying that table.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- Deborah.- It's the best on the market. It does absolutely everything.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40- We have to give it back. - What? Don't be silly.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42I mean it. We can't keep accepting gifts.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46- Why not? Daddy can afford it. - That's not the point.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49There's nothing wrong with having nice things, Jack.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05They're not my friends, Deborah, I just work with them.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Well, then a party's exactly what you need.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Come on, please, it'll be fun!
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Please?
0:23:24 > 0:23:26I know just what to make.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30A WOMAN SCREAMS
0:23:30 > 0:23:31Hey!
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Oi!
0:24:01 > 0:24:04I swear to you. I never touched that girl.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07- I only try to help her. - Here's what I think.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09I think you tried to force yourself on her.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10An innocent girl crossing the park.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12She put up a fight and you bludgeoned her,
0:24:12 > 0:24:14isn't that right, Mr Palmer?
0:24:14 > 0:24:15That's not what happened.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19I hear her scream and come running. A white man was standing over her.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Oh, a white man?- He had a knife.
0:24:21 > 0:24:22FENTON LAUGHS
0:24:22 > 0:24:25So you saw a man. The girl's unconscious, he has a knife.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26What did you do?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- I shout at him and he run off. - You let him get away?
0:24:29 > 0:24:33I stay to help the girl. I scared she dead.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35That's how I get the blood on me.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Why run from the scene?
0:24:37 > 0:24:38I wasn't born yesterday.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41People see a black man with a white girl's blood on him,
0:24:41 > 0:24:43they think what you thinking right now.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45It looks like we've made a big mistake.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Looks like we've got a hero in our midst.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49What do you say, should we give him a medal?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52What were you doing in the park?
0:24:52 > 0:24:53Is it on your way home?
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Me finished work.
0:24:55 > 0:24:56That's not what I asked.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Me feel like a walk.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59At night? On your own?
0:24:59 > 0:25:01It's not a crime to go for a walk.
0:25:03 > 0:25:04I never touched that girl.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06So you keep saying.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Sergeant Fenton, take Mr Palmer down to the cells.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35Sir, the coloured prisoner. I've met him before, on the bus.
0:25:35 > 0:25:36And?
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Well, he just didn't seem the type to hurt someone.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41You can't always tell, Dawson.

0:25:45 > 0:25:46Has he admitted it?
0:25:46 > 0:25:48Not yet. DI Burns.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54Yes. Just a second. You couldn't get me a cup of tea, could you?
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Yes, sir.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Thank you. Two sugars.
0:25:59 > 0:26:00Is everything all right?
0:26:00 > 0:26:04No, I haven't had a chance yet.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Because I've been working, Deborah.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08I said I'd invite them, and I will.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11A decent girl's not safe walking the streets any more.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14Not with foreigners pouring in every day.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Don't worry, Cathy. I'll protect you.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19SHE GIGGLES
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Not very nice, is it?
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Beating a helpless girl unconscious.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Well, I've got news for you, boy, you better hope she pulls through.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31Or you're going to swing for murder.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33You not the only one who care about my Sylvia!
0:26:33 > 0:26:35You're on first-name terms, are you?
0:26:36 > 0:26:41- I don't want to get her in trouble. - You're beginning to try my patience.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44She take the bus home every night. She work in the hotel.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47We talk all the time.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48Last night she ask me to walk her home.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52- Why would she do that?- You never take a walk with a girl before?
0:26:52 > 0:26:55- The park is quiet at night. - So you two...?
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- Just a kiss. But then she get scared.- I bet she did.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Not of me, man. She scared somebody see us.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02So she asked to walk the rest of the way alone.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05After I leave her, I hear her screaming and I come running back.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- You expect me to believe that? - Yes, because it's the truth!
0:27:08 > 0:27:12- The truth is that she let you flirt with her.- No, man.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- And you pushed too far.- No, man.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19Come on. You're in the park. There's nobody about.
0:27:21 > 0:27:22Who's to stop you?
0:27:22 > 0:27:24That's not me, man. It wasn't me, man.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26Shh, shh, shh.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28We've all been there.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31Some girl leads you on, hmm.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Makes out like she wants it.
0:27:33 > 0:27:37And when she changes her mind, it makes you angry, right?
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Make it easier on yourself.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Plead guilty, hey.
0:27:47 > 0:27:51Cos either way, we've got you.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59HE SOBS
0:27:59 > 0:28:01You're sure?
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Could you send over a copy of that, please?
0:28:03 > 0:28:05As soon as possible. Thanks.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07That was the pathologist.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Seems the boy did die from a blow to the back of the head.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12- Only thing is, no other bones were fractured.- Meaning?
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Meaning, if he'd fallen hard enough to kill him,
0:28:15 > 0:28:17he'd have other injuries.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20- So it's a murder investigation? - Looks like it.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23Then I'll see to it the men assist you in any way they can.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Thank you, sir.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Mr Palmer.
0:28:41 > 0:28:46We've met before, remember? I ran for the bus.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Your first day.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54They say I hurt my Sylvia.
0:28:55 > 0:28:57I know.
0:28:57 > 0:29:02It's not true, I swear. Why would I hurt her? I love her.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Will you help me? Please.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22Sergeant Fenton.
0:29:22 > 0:29:26I've just seen Donald Palmer. He's been beaten up.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29You'd best stay out of things that don't concern you.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33Sorry, Sergeant, it's just that I'm new here
0:29:33 > 0:29:36and I'm not sure how it all works.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Do we beat all the prisoners, or just the coloured ones?
0:29:39 > 0:29:40Watch yourself, girl.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43What's this, Dawson?
0:29:43 > 0:29:46If there's a problem, I expect you to speak up.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49I was concerned about the coloured prisoner, sir.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Sir, it's nothing to worry about, when we brought him in...
0:29:51 > 0:29:54When I want to hear from you, Sergeant Fenton, I'll ask.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56DI Burns. A word, please.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Yes, sir?
0:29:58 > 0:30:00You and Fenton interviewed Mr Palmer together.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Can you explain how he came to be injured?
0:30:03 > 0:30:06He was apprehended last night by a civilian, sir.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10I believe he got a little roughed up in the process.
0:30:10 > 0:30:11Satisfied?
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Yes, sir.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23- DI Burns, you've got a phone call. - Thank you.
0:30:31 > 0:30:32SHE SIGHS
0:30:35 > 0:30:37Fenton. She's awake.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38She remember anything?
0:30:39 > 0:30:43- What?- The girl. Is she fit to make a statement?
0:30:43 > 0:30:44We'll find out.
0:30:44 > 0:30:45Sergeant Fenton.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48I'd like you to follow up on the pawn shop burglary.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50Sir, that case has stalled. I'm in the middle of...
0:30:50 > 0:30:53It's your job to look for leads, isn't it? Dawson.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55- Yes, sir?- You're to accompany DI Burns to the hospital.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57What?!
0:30:57 > 0:30:59A young girl has been seriously assaulted.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01I expect she'll feel more at ease with a female officer present.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05- Any objections?- No, sir.- Good.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16If you'd like to go through the door, she's in the bed on the right.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Thank you, Matron.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20Leave the questioning to me.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22- You're just here as a friendly face, understood?- Yes, sir.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25I'll keep my mouth shut and my notebook open.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28DI Burns.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30I didn't mean to get Sergeant Fenton into trouble, honest.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Chief Inspector Nelson just came out of nowhere.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35He does have a habit of doing that.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38Word of advice - steer clear of Fenton from now on.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40Yes, sir.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Mr and Mrs Stewart? Miss Stewart.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48I'm glad to see you're feeling better.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51I'm DI Burns and this is WPC Dawson.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54We'd like to ask you a few questions, if we may?
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Is it all right if I call you Sylvia?
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Yes, officer, sir.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04Sylvia, can you tell me exactly what happened last night?
0:32:04 > 0:32:08I'll try. It all happened so fast.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10I was on my way home from work.
0:32:10 > 0:32:14And I decided to take a short cut through Victoria Park.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16What have I told you about crossing that park at night?
0:32:16 > 0:32:18Mr Stewart, please,
0:32:18 > 0:32:21it's important your daughter speaks freely.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25There's this little pathway that runs through some trees.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28There's not much light down there.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32All of a sudden I heard these footsteps, coming up behind me.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38Before I could turn around he'd grabbed me.
0:32:38 > 0:32:39Sorry.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46You're safe now, Sylvia.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50The person who did this can't hurt you again.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53Right now I bet he's scared of you.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02I tried to get away. I was screaming.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05He put his hand over my mouth, so I bit him.
0:33:06 > 0:33:10Then he started hitting me. That's the last thing I remember.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13Did you see what he looked like? Any details at all?
0:33:14 > 0:33:16It was too dark.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Like I said, he came at me from behind.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Do you recognise this man?
0:33:24 > 0:33:27He was caught running away. He had your blood on him.
0:33:27 > 0:33:31So this is him, is it? Filthy animal.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33He denies the attack.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37He's a bus conductor on the route Sylvia takes from work.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39He says you'd become friends.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42He's lying. I don't know any coloured men.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44Look at the picture again.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46You've never spoken to him?
0:33:48 > 0:33:52Why would I? Apart from paying the fare.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54He must've followed me off the bus.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56So you think this man attacked you?
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Well, tell him, Sylvie. It was him, wasn't it?
0:34:01 > 0:34:02Yes.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04You're sure?
0:34:07 > 0:34:08I'm sure.
0:34:20 > 0:34:25Sir, I think Donald was telling the truth. They were sweethearts.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28And what are you basing this on? Woman's intuition?
0:34:28 > 0:34:33No, sir. Well, maybe a bit.
0:34:33 > 0:34:37But look at how she reacted when she saw his picture.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40I'd be pretty shaken up too if I was seeing my attacker.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43But she didn't see him, sir, not properly.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46I think she's scared of how her father might react
0:34:46 > 0:34:48so she lied to protect herself.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51You think she'd accuse the wrong man?
0:34:51 > 0:34:52Maybe.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Poor girl's been beaten half to death and you call her a liar.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58And let's say she did flirt with him. So what?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00If she admitted it, she'd look like she was asking for trouble.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Eddie, got any cigarettes?
0:35:05 > 0:35:09- Thanks.- She says she bit him. You saw Donald's hands.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Was there a bite mark?
0:35:12 > 0:35:14It's pretty hard to break the skin.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Look, I know you'd like to think he's innocent,
0:35:17 > 0:35:19but all the evidence points to Donald Palmer.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21- But shouldn't we...?- We?
0:35:21 > 0:35:22HE SNORTS
0:35:22 > 0:35:25You did well at the hospital, Dawson, but let's not get carried away.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28Just type up the statement and leave the casework to us.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Yes, sir.
0:35:35 > 0:35:36Hold on.
0:35:36 > 0:35:40There is something else you can do when you're done with that.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42There's a newspaper archive at Brinford Library.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45See if you can find anything about a missing boy from the area.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47The one from the mine, sir?
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Yeah, anything from 1923 on.
0:35:52 > 0:35:56- Deborah. - Sorry to interrupt, gentlemen.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58THE MEN CHEER
0:35:58 > 0:35:59What are you doing here?
0:35:59 > 0:36:02I knew you'd never get around to announcing your own birthday,
0:36:02 > 0:36:03so I decided to do it for you.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06- Is it your birthday, sir? - Kept that one quiet, Burns.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08It's on Saturday, and you're all invited
0:36:08 > 0:36:10to come and celebrate it with us.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14And bring your wives too. Please, everyone's more than welcome.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16And to give you all a taster of things to come...
0:36:19 > 0:36:20Thank you very much!
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Don't mind if I do, Mrs Burns.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24Oh, smashing.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Two boys?
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Yes, sir. William Parker and Stanley Collins.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00They went missing from Crossmere Woods in 1926.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03They were at least six years old, poor little tykes.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Did you note it down?
0:37:05 > 0:37:08- Yes, sir, I left it on your desk. - Thank you.
0:37:09 > 0:37:10HE SIGHS
0:37:10 > 0:37:12What is it, sir?
0:37:12 > 0:37:15If it's the same case there could be a second body out there.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17I need a woman.
0:37:17 > 0:37:18Pardon me?
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Not like that. There's been a call. Come on.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29CHILDREN CHATTER
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- Thank goodness. - Are you Gladys Campbell?
0:37:36 > 0:37:38I live downstairs. I didn't know what else to do.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41She's got a couple of little ones alone in there.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44The baby's quiet now, but he's been screaming for hours.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- It's enough to break your heart. - Do you know who their mother is?
0:37:48 > 0:37:51Irene Miller's her name. We're no longer on speaking terms.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53- Why's that? - I tried to help her where I could.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56It's not right, a young mother struggling on her own.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59But it got to be like she expected it.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01When I said I got my own children to think about, well,
0:38:01 > 0:38:03you should've heard the language.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08Now don't be afraid of Auntie Gladys.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11That is for being such a good boy.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13He's always so hungry, God bless him.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Do you know where we might find Irene?
0:38:16 > 0:38:20Where she always is. Down the pub with God knows who.
0:38:20 > 0:38:21BABY CRIES
0:38:21 > 0:38:23We're going to have to break in.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25We don't have a warrant for that.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27But it's an emergency, isn't it?
0:38:29 > 0:38:31Can you smell gas?
0:38:31 > 0:38:33Gas? I don't smell anything.
0:38:35 > 0:38:41Oh, yeah, yeah, it's definitely gas. Guess I'll have to break in.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43All right, stand back.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Move out the way, lad.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53BABY CRIES
0:38:56 > 0:38:58Officer Dawson.
0:39:07 > 0:39:08Give him here.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14He's just a bag of bones, God love him.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17- Would you see if there's any milk? - Yeah.
0:39:20 > 0:39:24Where's your mummy gone to? Come on, stand up.
0:39:24 > 0:39:25Nothing.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Poor little mite.
0:39:37 > 0:39:38- Are you coming up, then?- Eh?
0:39:38 > 0:39:40Are you coming up?!
0:39:40 > 0:39:42Nah, I can't.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Aw, come on!
0:39:46 > 0:39:47Suit yourself!
0:39:47 > 0:39:49What are we supposed to do with them?
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Take them somewhere safe.
0:39:51 > 0:39:56I saw him on the street yesterday. Knew something wasn't right.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58I should've done something.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00You couldn't have known you'd find this.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Hey! What are you doing in my house?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04We were concerned about your children.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07What business is it of yours? Get your hands off my baby!
0:40:07 > 0:40:10- Stay where you are.- We're taking your children to the hospital.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12You're not taking them anywhere.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15You're in no fit state to look after them, you're drunk.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16- I am not!- I can smell it from here.
0:40:16 > 0:40:20- Get out, all of you! Just get out! - Take the baby outside, please.
0:40:20 > 0:40:21No!
0:40:21 > 0:40:24We're going for a ride in a police car. Would you like that?
0:40:24 > 0:40:26I said you're not taking him! Come here.
0:40:26 > 0:40:27Mrs Miller.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Irene, please, let him go.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31Please don't do this.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33If I'm in jail, they'll put them in care.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35I'm sorry. Let go.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39SHE SPITS
0:40:39 > 0:40:40Right, that's it.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44You bitch! You bitch! You've got no right! Let go.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46Stay there!
0:40:53 > 0:40:55I hear you saved a couple of kids today.
0:40:55 > 0:40:59I suppose I did, sir. So how come I feel so guilty?
0:40:59 > 0:41:02Cos there's only so much we can do.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05Thanks again, Miss Stewart. I'll see you out.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17She just signed a formal statement against Donald Palmer.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21Goodnight, Dawson.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24MUSIC: "Earth Angel" by The Crew Cuts
0:41:31 > 0:41:34Next time you're late, you'll have to go without.
0:41:34 > 0:41:38It'll be tough as old boots by now, but I'll hear no complaints.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43You'll never guess who I saw down in the shops.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Your friend Jane, from school.
0:41:45 > 0:41:49Seven months gone, can you believe it?
0:41:49 > 0:41:53Happily married and loving every minute.
0:41:53 > 0:41:58# My darling dear Love you all the time
0:41:58 > 0:42:05# I'm just a fool A fool in love with you
0:42:09 > 0:42:13# Earth angel, Earth angel
0:42:13 > 0:42:17# The one I adore
0:42:17 > 0:42:21# Love you for ever and ever more
0:42:22 > 0:42:30# I'm just a fool A fool in love with you... #
0:42:37 > 0:42:39SHE SCREAMS
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Sylvia Stewart made a statement.
0:42:46 > 0:42:50Palmer attacked her and he'll answer for it in court, Wednesday.
0:42:50 > 0:42:51Case closed.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53HE YELLS
0:42:53 > 0:42:56- Get up and see to your children! - Stop it!
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Today we lay William Parker to rest.
0:43:00 > 0:43:02SHOUTING AND SCREAMING
0:43:04 > 0:43:05I've had too much to drink.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07I think you've had just the right amount.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10Put your hands in the air. Put your hands where I can see them.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12- Sorry, sir. - Sorry doesn't even cover it, Fenton!
0:43:12 > 0:43:15You've made a complete laughing stock of us!
0:43:15 > 0:43:17You ought to make up your mind what you want.
