Come on. It's up here.

DOG BARKS

0:00:220:00:24

It's just through there.

0:00:240:00:26

DOG BARKS

0:00:330:00:35

Did you remove these?

0:00:400:00:41

Had to. She ran in and wouldn't come out again.

0:00:410:00:44

Stay here.

0:00:440:00:46

DOG BARKS

0:00:570:00:59

# Well, I saw my baby walkin'

0:01:400:01:43

# With another man today

0:01:430:01:46

# Well, I saw my baby walkin'

0:01:460:01:49

# With another man today

0:01:490:01:52

# When I asked her "What's the matter?"

0:01:520:01:55

# This is what I heard her say... #

0:01:550:01:58

Hey! Wait for me!

0:01:580:02:01

Give me your hand.

0:02:010:02:03

OK!

0:02:030:02:04

# See you later, alligator... #

0:02:040:02:07

Thank you!

0:02:070:02:09

You're welcome.

0:02:090:02:11

I can't be late on my first day, can I?

0:02:130:02:15

Your first day?

0:02:150:02:16

A police woman?

0:02:190:02:21

At your service. What do you think? Do I look the part?

0:02:210:02:25

Lord, yes. Criminals of Birmingham beware.

0:02:250:02:29

You know, me so scared on my first day in England,

0:02:380:02:41

me want to turn around and catch the boat right back home again.

0:02:410:02:44

But now, me wear three jumpers in the wintertime,

0:02:440:02:47

so me feel right at home.

0:02:470:02:49

THEY LAUGH

0:02:490:02:50

# See you later, alligator

0:02:530:02:55

# After a while, crocodile

0:02:550:02:59

# Can't you see you're in my way now?

0:02:590:03:02

HORN BEEPS

0:03:020:03:03

# See you later, alligator

0:03:050:03:08

# After a while, crocodile

0:03:080:03:11

# See you later, alligator

0:03:110:03:14

# So long, that's all

0:03:140:03:17

# Goodbye! #

0:03:170:03:20

Take him down to the cells till he sobers up.

0:03:220:03:27

Morning, Sergeant, I'm...

0:03:270:03:30

Hey, now, right, I warned you two, didn't I?

0:03:300:03:32

Where do you think you are?

0:03:320:03:34

Back row of the pictures?

0:03:340:03:36

You, move over there. Go on, right till the end.

0:03:360:03:40

And stay there.

0:03:420:03:44

Ah, you must be WPC Dawson.

0:03:450:03:48

-Yes, Sergeant.

-Sergeant Pratt. Come on through.

0:03:480:03:51

I'll take you to the Chief, he's expecting you.

0:03:510:03:54

Thank you, Sergeant. It's lucky I'm here in one piece.

0:03:540:03:57

I nearly got flattened by a police car just now.

0:03:570:03:59

Not the best start, is it?

0:03:590:04:01

GIRL GIGGLES

0:04:010:04:03

Move your backside, lad, or I'll move it for you!

0:04:050:04:09

Any more funny business and I'm locking you both in separate cells.

0:04:090:04:13

What were they arrested for, Sergeant?

0:04:150:04:18

Arrested? They're the victims.

0:04:180:04:20

They were impressed with you at Divisional Headquarters.

0:04:220:04:25

-Thank you, sir.

-Why volunteer for a post in Brinford?

0:04:250:04:27

I grew up around here, sir.

0:04:270:04:29

I live with my mum and dad, so it's sort of perfect, really.

0:04:290:04:32

Well, perfect might be pushing it.

0:04:320:04:33

Anyway, I'm glad I won't have to take the daily train

0:04:330:04:36

to Birmingham any more, now my training's over.

0:04:360:04:38

I'll be honest with you, Dawson.

0:04:380:04:40

Recruiting you wasn't my idea.

0:04:420:04:44

I have a team of good men here, but they're few in number.

0:04:440:04:46

They haven't the time or resources to concern themselves

0:04:460:04:49

with your safety.

0:04:490:04:50

-That's all right, sir, I wouldn't expect...

-Let me finish.

0:04:500:04:53

Whether you need protection or not is beside the point,

0:04:530:04:55

men are naturally inclined to offer it.

0:04:550:04:57

So it's best for you to avoid situations that lead to

0:04:570:05:00

them being...distracted.

0:05:000:05:02

Yes, sir.

0:05:020:05:04

I expect you had female-only offices and facilities in Birmingham.

0:05:040:05:07

As you can imagine, we've hardly the space for that here.

0:05:070:05:09

But we've made provision for you as best we can.

0:05:090:05:12

Honestly, you could stick me in a broom cupboard,

0:05:120:05:14

-I'm just grateful to be here.

-Well...

0:05:140:05:16

What I mean to say is, thank you, sir, for this opportunity

0:05:160:05:19

and I'm ready to go about my duties as soon as possible, sir.

0:05:190:05:21

Well, if the men need help with women or children,

0:05:210:05:24

-you're to take that off their hands.

-Yes, sir.

0:05:240:05:27

Never forget that your sole responsibility is to support the men,

0:05:270:05:31

so they can get on with the job of real policing.

0:05:310:05:34

-Oi!

-Don't leave 'em sitting there, then!

0:05:370:05:39

I'd rather have chocolates sitting on me desk than you.

0:05:390:05:42

You only left 'em out to make me jealous.

0:05:420:05:44

It's not working, you know.

0:05:440:05:46

All right, it's working. Who gave 'em ya?

0:05:480:05:50

That would be telling.

0:05:500:05:52

I bet whoever he is doesn't have a Triumph Tiger.

0:05:520:05:55

When are you going to come for a ride with me?

0:05:560:05:59

When you drive something proper, like a car.

0:05:590:06:01

HE LAUGHS

0:06:010:06:03

I'll get you on my bike yet, Cathy Sinclair, you see if I don't.

0:06:030:06:06

Oh! I just typed the same sentence twice.

0:06:060:06:11

I hear the new WPC's arrived. What's she like?

0:06:110:06:15

-Coulson, what are you doing?

-Nothing, sir.

0:06:150:06:18

Evidently. Make yourself useful and show Dawson her office.

0:06:180:06:22

Yes, sir.

0:06:220:06:23

How come she gets her own office?

0:06:280:06:30

I need those letters sent out today, Miss Sinclair.

0:06:300:06:33

This actually is a broom cupboard.

0:06:420:06:44

Handy for keeping the place clean though, eh?

0:06:440:06:47

Will I get my own telephone, do you think?

0:06:510:06:53

Not likely, we'd never get you off it.

0:06:530:06:56

Well, if I get lonely I can always talk to myself, I suppose.

0:06:560:07:00

-You're a funny one, aren't you?

-What do you mean?

0:07:000:07:02

SHE COUGHS

0:07:050:07:07

Just take a seat here, Mr Marsh.

0:07:070:07:10

DI Burns? This is WPC Dawson, just started today.

0:07:110:07:15

Good to meet you, sir.

0:07:150:07:17

Likewise. Your timing couldn't be better.

0:07:170:07:20

Do you know where the teapot is?

0:07:200:07:22

-Sir?

-It's just in the kitchen.

0:07:220:07:24

How many sugars?

0:07:240:07:26

Two. Actually, make it four.

0:07:260:07:28

Um, yes, sir.

0:07:280:07:30

A day like today calls for four, I reckon.

0:07:320:07:34

-Cigarette?

-No, thanks.

0:07:340:07:36

Sit tight. I'll be right back.

0:07:360:07:38

So he grabbed your purse and ran off down St James Street.

0:07:380:07:41

Fenton. There's been a sighting, 'bout ten minutes ago.

0:07:410:07:44

-Where?

-Kenrick Road.

0:07:440:07:47

Right, everybody to the courtyard, that's a double!

0:07:470:07:51

Looks like we found your bag-snatcher.

0:07:510:07:53

Just kidding!

0:07:540:07:56

Don't worry, we'll be in touch if anything turns up.

0:07:570:08:01

That's it. Through there.

0:08:010:08:03

Where is everyone?

0:08:120:08:13

Everyone was ordered to the courtyard, miss.

0:08:130:08:16

He said on the double.

0:08:160:08:18

Sorry, didn't hear the order!

0:08:400:08:42

Um, Sergeant Fenton?

0:08:450:08:47

Shut the doors! We haven't got all day!

0:08:470:08:49

BELL RINGS

0:08:520:08:54

Thanks for making a statement, Mr Marsh.

0:09:000:09:02

I can get someone to drive you home, if you like.

0:09:020:09:05

If you can call it that. I live on a canal boat.

0:09:050:09:08

Oh.

0:09:080:09:09

-PC Hunt.

-Yes, sir?

-could you drop Mr Marsh off at...?

0:09:090:09:14

Where's your boat?

0:09:140:09:16

It's still moored up near the mine, for now anyway.

0:09:160:09:19

There's no part of the country I haven't stopped in,

0:09:210:09:24

one time or another.

0:09:240:09:25

I like to walk the hills and countryside.

0:09:250:09:27

Have you ever collected wild flowers, Detective Burns?

0:09:280:09:31

-Collected?

-Pressed.

0:09:310:09:34

You don't need a proper flower press, a good solid book will do.

0:09:340:09:37

Can't say I have.

0:09:370:09:38

I'm just an amateur, really.

0:09:400:09:42

You find the rarest species of plants where people don't often go.

0:09:420:09:47

I'll be off then.

0:09:520:09:55

Can you tell if it was a boy or a girl?

0:09:550:09:57

We haven't examined the remains yet, Mr Marsh.

0:09:570:10:01

But it was a child, wasn't it?

0:10:010:10:04

You did the right thing calling it in.

0:10:040:10:07

Right, listen up. We approach as quietly as possible.

0:10:320:10:35

Spread yourselves out. Cover all the exits.

0:10:350:10:37

And remember, lads, they could be armed.

0:10:370:10:39

Who's this?

0:10:460:10:48

Her name's Dawson, Sergeant. She's the new WPC.

0:10:480:10:50

I can see that. What's she doing here?

0:10:500:10:53

She just got in the van, Sergeant.

0:10:530:10:55

Brilliant. Maybe Cathy should've come along too.

0:10:550:10:57

And Glenda the tea lady. Get back in the van.

0:10:570:11:00

I won't get in the way, Sergeant, honest.

0:11:000:11:02

No, you won't. Because you'll be in the van.

0:11:020:11:05

Don't move till we get back. Right, you ready?

0:11:050:11:08

Yes, Sergeant.

0:11:110:11:12

# Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues

0:11:160:11:20

# Come on, get rhythm... #

0:11:200:11:22

A 60/40 split. Daylight robbery is what it is.

0:11:220:11:26

Hardly worth my while. I hope you know that.

0:11:260:11:28

Do you want them or what?

0:11:280:11:30

But you know, obviously, as your mate...

0:11:300:11:33

Everybody stay where you are!

0:11:330:11:36

# A little shoeshine boy never gets low down

0:11:360:11:38

# But he's got the dirtiest job in town

0:11:380:11:40

# Bendin' low at the peoples' feet

0:11:400:11:41

# On the windy corner of the dirty street

0:11:410:11:44

WHISTLES BLOW

0:11:440:11:45

# Get rhythm

0:11:450:11:46

# When you get the blues

0:11:460:11:48

# It only costs a dime Just a nickel a shoe

0:11:480:11:50

# It does 1 million worth of good for you

0:11:500:11:52

# Get rhythm when you get the blues. #

0:11:520:11:59

-Drop the bag.

-Don't be like that.

-I said drop it.

0:12:080:12:11

Look, I had nothing to do with the hijacking, I swear.

0:12:160:12:19

I was just helping to flog the fags.

0:12:190:12:20

You know me, I wouldn't get involved in no violence.

0:12:200:12:23

-Tell it to the judge.

-Wait, Fenton, Fenton! Please! Don't!

0:12:230:12:25

Keep your voice down.

0:12:250:12:27

-You don't want to arrest me, not now.

-Oh, don't I?

0:12:270:12:30

I'm close to something big.

0:12:300:12:32

I'm serious, if this pays off you'll be a hero.

0:12:320:12:35

What you talking about?

0:12:350:12:37

Bank job. All right? Big one.

0:12:370:12:40

Week from now, maybe two, but it's definitely happening.

0:12:400:12:43

And you're in on it?

0:12:430:12:45

I told you I don't do nothing with guns.

0:12:450:12:47

But there's this kid I know, right,

0:12:470:12:49

he's trying to make a name for himself.

0:12:490:12:51

I've done him some favours and he trusts me, all right, enough to talk.

0:12:510:12:55

I'm no good to you if I'm banged up for this, now am I?

0:12:550:12:58

Hey. Stop! Police!

0:13:090:13:11

Hey!

0:13:130:13:15

I should've come with you, Sergeant. He wouldn't have given me the slip.

0:13:150:13:18

I could still outrun you, lad, don't you worry.

0:13:180:13:20

Hey. Stop!

0:13:200:13:22

SHE SCREAMS

0:13:220:13:23

THEY LAUGH

0:13:230:13:25

It's all right.

0:13:290:13:30

I'm OK.

0:13:300:13:32

All right.

0:13:320:13:34

What did the pathologist say?

0:13:360:13:39

He confirmed it was a boy, about six or seven.

0:13:390:13:41

Evidence of rickets.

0:13:410:13:43

Found that in his pocket.

0:13:430:13:45

Had to scrape a fair bit off it, but you can still make out the date.

0:13:450:13:49

1923. Think he could've been down there that long?

0:13:490:13:52

Maybe.

0:13:520:13:53

Or he just had an old coin on him.

0:13:530:13:55

Did the pathologist give a cause of death?

0:13:560:13:58

-He said he'd call.

-Any theories?

-The skull was fractured.

0:13:580:14:02

Could be he crawled into the tunnel somehow and fell in the dark.

0:14:020:14:07

Poor kid.

0:14:070:14:08

Yeah.

0:14:080:14:10

Next time I give you an order you'll do as you're told.

0:14:130:14:16

-Understood?

-Yes, Sergeant.

-Go and clean yourself up.

0:14:160:14:19

-What happened to her?

-She picked the wrong job.

0:14:190:14:21

HE LAUGHS

0:14:210:14:22

Brinford Police, Sergeant Pratt speaking.

0:14:240:14:27

Oh, thank goodness it's you!

0:14:270:14:29

Ah, Mrs Pemberton. What can I do for you?

0:14:290:14:31

My Hector's run away again! I don't know what to do!

0:14:310:14:34

I'm sure it's nothing to worry about,

0:14:340:14:36

he always comes home of his own accord.

0:14:360:14:38

But anything could happen to him!

0:14:380:14:40

Third time this week.

0:14:400:14:41

Tell her we'll send someone right away.

0:14:410:14:44

-What?

-Just tell her.

0:14:440:14:45

Oh.

0:14:470:14:49

Mrs Pemberton? I'm WPC Dawson.

0:14:490:14:53

I was told I'd be sent an officer.

0:14:530:14:55

Don't worry, I'm just as qualified and twice as determined.

0:14:550:14:59

I believe you reported a runaway by the name of Hector.

0:14:590:15:02

Yes.

0:15:020:15:03

How old is he?

0:15:070:15:08

I explained all of this on the telephone.

0:15:080:15:10

I just need a few extra details.

0:15:100:15:12

I'm told this isn't the first time he's run off.

0:15:120:15:14

And I'm worried sick! What if he runs into traffic?

0:15:140:15:16

I won't let that happen, Mrs Pemberton.

0:15:160:15:18

Could you describe him to me?

0:15:180:15:21

Well, he has sandy-coloured hair.

0:15:210:15:23

He looks the way you'd expect him to, really.

0:15:260:15:30

Right.

0:15:300:15:32

Perhaps you have a photograph?

0:15:320:15:34

Well, I'll have a look.

0:15:340:15:36

'Will a painting do?'

0:15:380:15:41

A painting?

0:15:410:15:43

I did it myself.

0:15:430:15:44

Had a devil of a time getting him to sit still.

0:15:440:15:46

Hilarious. Grown men. Nothing better to do.

0:15:500:15:55

Poor little thing, being left out in the rain like that.

0:16:090:16:13

Come on, Charlie, love.

0:16:170:16:19

METAL CLANKS

0:16:260:16:28

Hey boy. Hello.

0:16:330:16:35

Couple more pubs and I reckon we'll shift the lot.

0:16:350:16:37

Does that mean we can finally have a pint?

0:16:370:16:39

All in good time, amigo.

0:16:390:16:41

DOG GROWLS

0:16:410:16:43

Leg it!

0:16:430:16:45

Stop! Stop! Police!

0:16:470:16:50

She's been gone a long time. Think she's run into trouble?

0:16:520:16:57

Like what? Torn her nylons again?

0:16:570:16:59

-Yeah, or broken a nail.

-HE CHUCKLES

0:16:590:17:01

Sergeant Fenton, do you want to charge them or shall I?

0:17:030:17:08

DOG SLOBBERS

0:17:100:17:13

FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:17:130:17:16

DOOR UNLOCKS, OPENS

0:17:160:17:18

You boys are in a lot of trouble.

0:17:230:17:26

Flogging stolen goods is a serious offence.

0:17:260:17:29

I'm sure it is.

0:17:290:17:31

-But we bought them fags for us, didn't we, Kev? Didn't we?

-Yeah.

0:17:310:17:35

100-a-day habit, is it? You should cut down.

0:17:350:17:37

Just tell me where you got 'em

0:17:370:17:39

and I'll have a word with the magistrate.

0:17:390:17:41

All right, hang on a sec.

0:17:410:17:43

Let me, erm...

0:17:430:17:45

Ah, do you know what, I think I may have lost the receipt.

0:17:470:17:50

Right!

0:17:520:17:54

You think this is funny?!

0:17:560:17:57

No! I don't! I'm sorry!

0:17:570:18:00

BANGING

0:18:000:18:03

Ow!

0:18:030:18:04

Ow!

0:18:050:18:07

Ow!

0:18:080:18:09

When I go to the trouble of letting you go,

0:18:090:18:11

I don't expect you to get yourself nicked again.

0:18:110:18:13

It's that woman copper. She's everywhere.

0:18:130:18:16

For you and me both.

0:18:160:18:17

HE CRIES OUT

0:18:170:18:19

Is that the lad?

0:18:190:18:20

Not the face!

0:18:210:18:23

Ow!

0:18:240:18:25

So what do we do?

0:18:270:18:29

HE GROANS

0:18:290:18:30

-I'll handle it.

-What happened to counting to three?

0:18:300:18:32

-Oh, shut up.

-I think you've broken it.

0:18:320:18:35

You're fine, stop acting like such a woman.

0:18:350:18:37

I'll let you go in a few hours.

0:18:370:18:39

Can I be out by 6.00? I'm meant to be taking a bird to the pictures.

0:18:390:18:43

So you missed the second goal then?

0:18:490:18:52

INDISTINCT CHAT

0:18:520:18:54

Good of you to stay late, sweetheart.

0:18:540:18:56

Seems like we all fell behind on our paperwork.

0:18:560:18:59

It's all right, Sergeant Fenton.

0:18:590:19:01

-I hear you let Brody and his friend go.

-And?

0:19:040:19:07

It's just I thought... because of the cigarettes.

0:19:070:19:10

What cigarettes?

0:19:100:19:12

THEY LAUGH

0:19:120:19:14

G'night then.

0:19:200:19:22

Not so fast. End of your first shift.

0:19:220:19:24

Time for a Brinford branding.

0:19:240:19:26

You can't do that, she's a woman.

0:19:260:19:28

It's a station tradition. Why should she be exempt?

0:19:280:19:31

-What is it?

-We all get to, you know, rubber-stamp you.

0:19:310:19:35

THEY LAUGH

0:19:350:19:36

Where?

0:19:360:19:37

On the bum.

0:19:370:19:39

THEY GIGGLE

0:19:390:19:40

All right, then.

0:19:430:19:44

Fetch the stamp.

0:19:460:19:47

Go on, Eddie, you heard her.

0:19:490:19:51

-It's this or nothing.

-That'll do.

0:19:560:19:58

Oh, and, eh, watch the stockings.

0:20:020:20:03

I don't fancy explaining this to me mum.

0:20:030:20:06

THEY CHEER

0:20:060:20:08

THEY CHUCKLE

0:20:180:20:20

Go on, Pratt! Get stuck in, son.

0:20:240:20:27

THEY CHEER

0:20:320:20:34

-Saving the best till last.

-Go on, Eddie.

0:20:340:20:36

THEY APPLAUD

0:20:380:20:40

Goodnight, gentlemen.

0:20:450:20:47

INDISTINCT CHATTER

0:20:570:20:59

Is this what it's going to be like from now on?

0:21:050:21:07

Dinner ready and no sign of her?

0:21:070:21:09

Give her a chance, Brenda. It's her first day.

0:21:090:21:12

DOOR OPENS

0:21:120:21:13

Here she is. How'd it go, love?

0:21:130:21:16

It went great, Dad.

0:21:160:21:17

Everyone's really nice.

0:21:200:21:22

Well, sit down. I want to hear all about it.

0:21:230:21:25

No, never mind that.

0:21:250:21:27

You said you would finish work an hour ago.

0:21:270:21:29

I had to lay the table myself.

0:21:290:21:30

Oh, I'm sorry, Mum. Here, sit down.

0:21:300:21:32

It must be really hard work laying that table.

0:21:320:21:35

Don't you be so cheeky!

0:21:350:21:36

Your mother's right, show some respect.

0:21:360:21:38

She's exhausted from carrying that cutlery about, look at her.

0:21:380:21:41

HE CHUCKLES

0:21:410:21:42

Now don't encourage her, Joe.

0:21:420:21:44

Gina, you go and get changed, for goodness sake,

0:21:440:21:46

Frank'll be here any minute.

0:21:460:21:48

DOOR OPENS

0:21:480:21:49

I can wait on the doorstep, if you like.

0:21:490:21:51

At least someone's got the good manners to be on time.

0:21:510:21:53

I'd never be late for your home cooking, Mrs Dee.

0:21:530:21:56

Hi.

0:21:580:21:59

Ay! Sit down, everybody, your dinner's ready.

0:21:590:22:03

It all smells smashing, Mrs Dawson.

0:22:030:22:06

WPC Dawson. We're all proud as punch, aren't we?

0:22:080:22:13

Hm? Oh, right, yeah.

0:22:130:22:15

TV PLAYS

0:22:180:22:20

Jack? >

0:22:270:22:29

-You just missed Daddy.

-Why aren't the girls in bed?

0:22:290:22:32

He wanted to see them. Look what he gave us! Isn't it divine?

0:22:320:22:35

-Deborah.

-It's the best on the market. It does absolutely everything.

0:22:350:22:38

-We have to give it back.

-What? Don't be silly.

0:22:380:22:40

I mean it. We can't keep accepting gifts.

0:22:400:22:42

-Why not? Daddy can afford it.

-That's not the point.

0:22:420:22:46

There's nothing wrong with having nice things, Jack.

0:22:460:22:49

Besides, we have to keep it.

0:22:500:22:53

-I need it for your party on Saturday.

-What party?

0:22:530:22:56

It's your birthday.

0:22:560:22:57

I want you to invite your friends from work.

0:22:570:23:00

No, absolutely not.

0:23:000:23:01

You never let me meet them.

0:23:010:23:02

They're not my friends, Deborah, I just work with them.

0:23:020:23:05

Well, then a party's exactly what you need.

0:23:050:23:07

Come on, please, it'll be fun!

0:23:100:23:13

Please?

0:23:150:23:17

I know just what to make.

0:23:240:23:26

A WOMAN SCREAMS

0:23:280:23:30

Hey!

0:23:300:23:31

Oi!

0:23:430:23:45

I swear to you. I never touched that girl.

0:24:010:24:04

-I only try to help her.

-Here's what I think.

0:24:040:24:07

I think you tried to force yourself on her.

0:24:070:24:09

An innocent girl crossing the park.

0:24:090:24:10

She put up a fight and you bludgeoned her,

0:24:100:24:12

isn't that right, Mr Palmer?

0:24:120:24:14

That's not what happened.

0:24:140:24:15

I hear her scream and come running. A white man was standing over her.

0:24:150:24:19

-Oh, a white man?

-He had a knife.

0:24:190:24:21

FENTON LAUGHS

0:24:210:24:22

So you saw a man. The girl's unconscious, he has a knife.

0:24:220:24:25

What did you do?

0:24:250:24:26

-I shout at him and he run off.

-You let him get away?

0:24:260:24:29

I stay to help the girl. I scared she dead.

0:24:290:24:33

That's how I get the blood on me.

0:24:330:24:35

Why run from the scene?

0:24:350:24:37

I wasn't born yesterday.

0:24:370:24:38

People see a black man with a white girl's blood on him,

0:24:380:24:41

they think what you thinking right now.

0:24:410:24:43

It looks like we've made a big mistake.

0:24:430:24:45

Looks like we've got a hero in our midst.

0:24:450:24:47

What do you say, should we give him a medal?

0:24:470:24:49

What were you doing in the park?

0:24:490:24:52

Is it on your way home?

0:24:520:24:53

Me finished work.

0:24:530:24:55

That's not what I asked.

0:24:550:24:56

Me feel like a walk.

0:24:560:24:58

At night? On your own?

0:24:580:24:59

It's not a crime to go for a walk.

0:24:590:25:01

I never touched that girl.

0:25:030:25:04

So you keep saying.

0:25:040:25:06

Sergeant Fenton, take Mr Palmer down to the cells.

0:25:070:25:10

Sir, the coloured prisoner. I've met him before, on the bus.

0:25:310:25:35

And?

0:25:350:25:36

Well, he just didn't seem the type to hurt someone.

0:25:360:25:39

You can't always tell, Dawson.

0:25:390:25:41

PHONE RINGS

0:25:430:25:45

Has he admitted it?

0:25:450:25:46

Not yet. DI Burns.

0:25:460:25:48

Yes. Just a second. You couldn't get me a cup of tea, could you?

0:25:500:25:54

Yes, sir.

0:25:550:25:57

Thank you. Two sugars.

0:25:570:25:59

Is everything all right?

0:25:590:26:00

No, I haven't had a chance yet.

0:26:000:26:04

Because I've been working, Deborah.

0:26:040:26:06

I said I'd invite them, and I will.

0:26:060:26:08

A decent girl's not safe walking the streets any more.

0:26:080:26:11

Not with foreigners pouring in every day.

0:26:110:26:14

Don't worry, Cathy. I'll protect you.

0:26:140:26:17

SHE GIGGLES

0:26:170:26:19

Not very nice, is it?

0:26:200:26:22

Beating a helpless girl unconscious.

0:26:220:26:24

Well, I've got news for you, boy, you better hope she pulls through.

0:26:260:26:29

Or you're going to swing for murder.

0:26:290:26:31

You not the only one who care about my Sylvia!

0:26:310:26:33

You're on first-name terms, are you?

0:26:330:26:35

-I don't want to get her in trouble.

-You're beginning to try my patience.

0:26:360:26:41

She take the bus home every night. She work in the hotel.

0:26:410:26:44

We talk all the time.

0:26:440:26:47

Last night she ask me to walk her home.

0:26:470:26:48

-Why would she do that?

-You never take a walk with a girl before?

0:26:480:26:52

-The park is quiet at night.

-So you two...?

0:26:520:26:55

-Just a kiss. But then she get scared.

-I bet she did.

0:26:550:26:58

Not of me, man. She scared somebody see us.

0:26:580:27:00

So she asked to walk the rest of the way alone.

0:27:000:27:02

After I leave her, I hear her screaming and I come running back.

0:27:020:27:05

-You expect me to believe that?

-Yes, because it's the truth!

0:27:050:27:08

-The truth is that she let you flirt with her.

-No, man.

0:27:080:27:12

-And you pushed too far.

-No, man.

0:27:120:27:15

Come on. You're in the park. There's nobody about.

0:27:150:27:19

Who's to stop you?

0:27:210:27:22

That's not me, man. It wasn't me, man.

0:27:220:27:24

Shh, shh, shh.

0:27:240:27:26

We've all been there.

0:27:260:27:28

Some girl leads you on, hmm.

0:27:280:27:31

Makes out like she wants it.

0:27:310:27:33

And when she changes her mind, it makes you angry, right?

0:27:330:27:37

Make it easier on yourself.

0:27:390:27:42

Plead guilty, hey.

0:27:420:27:45

Cos either way, we've got you.

0:27:470:27:51

HE SOBS

0:27:570:27:59

You're sure?

0:27:590:28:01

Could you send over a copy of that, please?

0:28:010:28:03

As soon as possible. Thanks.

0:28:030:28:05

That was the pathologist.

0:28:050:28:07

Seems the boy did die from a blow to the back of the head.

0:28:070:28:10

-Only thing is, no other bones were fractured.

-Meaning?

0:28:100:28:12

Meaning, if he'd fallen hard enough to kill him,

0:28:120:28:15

he'd have other injuries.

0:28:150:28:17

-So it's a murder investigation?

-Looks like it.

0:28:170:28:20

Then I'll see to it the men assist you in any way they can.

0:28:200:28:23

Thank you, sir.

0:28:230:28:25

Mr Palmer.

0:28:360:28:38

We've met before, remember? I ran for the bus.

0:28:410:28:46

Your first day.

0:28:480:28:50

They say I hurt my Sylvia.

0:28:520:28:54

I know.

0:28:550:28:57

It's not true, I swear. Why would I hurt her? I love her.

0:28:570:29:02

Will you help me? Please.

0:29:080:29:11

Sergeant Fenton.

0:29:200:29:22

I've just seen Donald Palmer. He's been beaten up.

0:29:220:29:26

You'd best stay out of things that don't concern you.

0:29:260:29:29

Sorry, Sergeant, it's just that I'm new here

0:29:290:29:33

and I'm not sure how it all works.

0:29:330:29:36

Do we beat all the prisoners, or just the coloured ones?

0:29:360:29:39

Watch yourself, girl.

0:29:390:29:40

What's this, Dawson?

0:29:400:29:43

If there's a problem, I expect you to speak up.

0:29:430:29:46

I was concerned about the coloured prisoner, sir.

0:29:460:29:49

Sir, it's nothing to worry about, when we brought him in...

0:29:490:29:51

When I want to hear from you, Sergeant Fenton, I'll ask.

0:29:510:29:54

DI Burns. A word, please.

0:29:540:29:56

Yes, sir?

0:29:560:29:58

You and Fenton interviewed Mr Palmer together.

0:29:580:30:00

Can you explain how he came to be injured?

0:30:000:30:02

He was apprehended last night by a civilian, sir.

0:30:030:30:06

I believe he got a little roughed up in the process.

0:30:060:30:10

Satisfied?

0:30:100:30:11

Yes, sir.

0:30:110:30:13

-DI Burns, you've got a phone call.

-Thank you.

0:30:200:30:23

SHE SIGHS

0:30:310:30:32

Fenton. She's awake.

0:30:350:30:37

She remember anything?

0:30:370:30:38

-What?

-The girl. Is she fit to make a statement?

0:30:390:30:43

We'll find out.

0:30:430:30:44

Sergeant Fenton.

0:30:440:30:45

I'd like you to follow up on the pawn shop burglary.

0:30:450:30:48

Sir, that case has stalled. I'm in the middle of...

0:30:480:30:50

It's your job to look for leads, isn't it? Dawson.

0:30:500:30:53

-Yes, sir?

-You're to accompany DI Burns to the hospital.

0:30:530:30:55

What?!

0:30:550:30:57

A young girl has been seriously assaulted.

0:30:570:30:59

I expect she'll feel more at ease with a female officer present.

0:30:590:31:01

-Any objections?

-No, sir.

-Good.

0:31:010:31:05

If you'd like to go through the door, she's in the bed on the right.

0:31:130:31:16

Thank you, Matron.

0:31:160:31:18

Leave the questioning to me.

0:31:180:31:20

-You're just here as a friendly face, understood?

-Yes, sir.

0:31:200:31:22

I'll keep my mouth shut and my notebook open.

0:31:220:31:25

DI Burns.

0:31:260:31:28

I didn't mean to get Sergeant Fenton into trouble, honest.

0:31:280:31:30

Chief Inspector Nelson just came out of nowhere.

0:31:300:31:33

He does have a habit of doing that.

0:31:330:31:35

Word of advice - steer clear of Fenton from now on.

0:31:350:31:38

Yes, sir.

0:31:380:31:40

Mr and Mrs Stewart? Miss Stewart.

0:31:420:31:45

I'm glad to see you're feeling better.

0:31:450:31:48

I'm DI Burns and this is WPC Dawson.

0:31:480:31:51

We'd like to ask you a few questions, if we may?

0:31:510:31:54

Is it all right if I call you Sylvia?

0:31:560:31:58

Yes, officer, sir.

0:31:580:32:00

Sylvia, can you tell me exactly what happened last night?

0:32:000:32:04

I'll try. It all happened so fast.

0:32:040:32:08

I was on my way home from work.

0:32:080:32:10

And I decided to take a short cut through Victoria Park.

0:32:100:32:14

What have I told you about crossing that park at night?

0:32:140:32:16

Mr Stewart, please,

0:32:160:32:18

it's important your daughter speaks freely.

0:32:180:32:21

There's this little pathway that runs through some trees.

0:32:210:32:25

There's not much light down there.

0:32:250:32:28

All of a sudden I heard these footsteps, coming up behind me.

0:32:290:32:32

Before I could turn around he'd grabbed me.

0:32:340:32:38

Sorry.

0:32:380:32:39

You're safe now, Sylvia.

0:32:440:32:46

The person who did this can't hurt you again.

0:32:460:32:50

Right now I bet he's scared of you.

0:32:510:32:53

I tried to get away. I was screaming.

0:32:580:33:02

He put his hand over my mouth, so I bit him.

0:33:020:33:05

Then he started hitting me. That's the last thing I remember.

0:33:060:33:10

Did you see what he looked like? Any details at all?

0:33:100:33:13

It was too dark.

0:33:140:33:16

Like I said, he came at me from behind.

0:33:160:33:19

Do you recognise this man?

0:33:220:33:24

He was caught running away. He had your blood on him.

0:33:240:33:27

So this is him, is it? Filthy animal.

0:33:270:33:31

He denies the attack.

0:33:310:33:33

He's a bus conductor on the route Sylvia takes from work.

0:33:330:33:37

He says you'd become friends.

0:33:370:33:39

He's lying. I don't know any coloured men.

0:33:390:33:42

Look at the picture again.

0:33:420:33:44

You've never spoken to him?

0:33:440:33:46

Why would I? Apart from paying the fare.

0:33:480:33:52

He must've followed me off the bus.

0:33:520:33:54

So you think this man attacked you?

0:33:540:33:56

Well, tell him, Sylvie. It was him, wasn't it?

0:33:560:34:00

Yes.

0:34:010:34:02

You're sure?

0:34:020:34:04

I'm sure.

0:34:070:34:08

Sir, I think Donald was telling the truth. They were sweethearts.

0:34:200:34:25

And what are you basing this on? Woman's intuition?

0:34:250:34:28

No, sir. Well, maybe a bit.

0:34:280:34:33

But look at how she reacted when she saw his picture.

0:34:330:34:37

I'd be pretty shaken up too if I was seeing my attacker.

0:34:370:34:40

But she didn't see him, sir, not properly.

0:34:400:34:43

I think she's scared of how her father might react

0:34:430:34:46

so she lied to protect herself.

0:34:460:34:48

You think she'd accuse the wrong man?

0:34:480:34:51

Maybe.

0:34:510:34:52

Poor girl's been beaten half to death and you call her a liar.

0:34:520:34:55

And let's say she did flirt with him. So what?

0:34:550:34:58

If she admitted it, she'd look like she was asking for trouble.

0:34:580:35:00

Eddie, got any cigarettes?

0:35:000:35:02

-Thanks.

-She says she bit him. You saw Donald's hands.

0:35:050:35:09

Was there a bite mark?

0:35:090:35:11

It's pretty hard to break the skin.

0:35:120:35:14

Look, I know you'd like to think he's innocent,

0:35:140:35:17

but all the evidence points to Donald Palmer.

0:35:170:35:19

-But shouldn't we...?

-We?

0:35:190:35:21

HE SNORTS

0:35:210:35:22

You did well at the hospital, Dawson, but let's not get carried away.

0:35:220:35:25

Just type up the statement and leave the casework to us.

0:35:250:35:28

Yes, sir.

0:35:280:35:30

Hold on.

0:35:350:35:36

There is something else you can do when you're done with that.

0:35:360:35:40

There's a newspaper archive at Brinford Library.

0:35:400:35:42

See if you can find anything about a missing boy from the area.

0:35:420:35:45

The one from the mine, sir?

0:35:450:35:47

Yeah, anything from 1923 on.

0:35:470:35:49

-Deborah.

-Sorry to interrupt, gentlemen.

0:35:520:35:56

THE MEN CHEER

0:35:560:35:58

What are you doing here?

0:35:580:35:59

I knew you'd never get around to announcing your own birthday,

0:35:590:36:02

so I decided to do it for you.

0:36:020:36:03

-Is it your birthday, sir?

-Kept that one quiet, Burns.

0:36:030:36:06

It's on Saturday, and you're all invited

0:36:060:36:08

to come and celebrate it with us.

0:36:080:36:10

And bring your wives too. Please, everyone's more than welcome.

0:36:100:36:14

And to give you all a taster of things to come...

0:36:140:36:16

Thank you very much!

0:36:190:36:20

Don't mind if I do, Mrs Burns.

0:36:200:36:22

Oh, smashing.

0:36:220:36:24

Two boys?

0:36:520:36:54

Yes, sir. William Parker and Stanley Collins.

0:36:540:36:57

They went missing from Crossmere Woods in 1926.

0:36:570:37:00

They were at least six years old, poor little tykes.

0:37:000:37:03

Did you note it down?

0:37:030:37:05

-Yes, sir, I left it on your desk.

-Thank you.

0:37:050:37:08

HE SIGHS

0:37:090:37:10

What is it, sir?

0:37:100:37:12

If it's the same case there could be a second body out there.

0:37:120:37:15

I need a woman.

0:37:150:37:17

Pardon me?

0:37:170:37:18

Not like that. There's been a call. Come on.

0:37:180:37:20

CHILDREN CHATTER

0:37:280:37:29

-Thank goodness.

-Are you Gladys Campbell?

0:37:340:37:36

I live downstairs. I didn't know what else to do.

0:37:360:37:38

She's got a couple of little ones alone in there.

0:37:380:37:41

The baby's quiet now, but he's been screaming for hours.

0:37:410:37:44

-It's enough to break your heart.

-Do you know who their mother is?

0:37:440:37:48

Irene Miller's her name. We're no longer on speaking terms.

0:37:480:37:51

-Why's that?

-I tried to help her where I could.

0:37:510:37:53

It's not right, a young mother struggling on her own.

0:37:530:37:56

But it got to be like she expected it.

0:37:560:37:59

When I said I got my own children to think about, well,

0:37:590:38:01

you should've heard the language.

0:38:010:38:03

Now don't be afraid of Auntie Gladys.

0:38:040:38:08

That is for being such a good boy.

0:38:080:38:11

He's always so hungry, God bless him.

0:38:110:38:13

Do you know where we might find Irene?

0:38:130:38:16

Where she always is. Down the pub with God knows who.

0:38:160:38:20

BABY CRIES

0:38:200:38:21

We're going to have to break in.

0:38:210:38:23

We don't have a warrant for that.

0:38:230:38:25

But it's an emergency, isn't it?

0:38:250:38:27

Can you smell gas?

0:38:290:38:31

Gas? I don't smell anything.

0:38:310:38:33

Oh, yeah, yeah, it's definitely gas. Guess I'll have to break in.

0:38:350:38:41

All right, stand back.

0:38:410:38:43

Move out the way, lad.

0:38:450:38:47

BABY CRIES

0:38:500:38:53

Officer Dawson.

0:38:560:38:58

Give him here.

0:39:070:39:08

He's just a bag of bones, God love him.

0:39:100:39:14

-Would you see if there's any milk?

-Yeah.

0:39:140:39:17

Where's your mummy gone to? Come on, stand up.

0:39:200:39:24

Nothing.

0:39:240:39:25

Poor little mite.

0:39:250:39:27

-Are you coming up, then?

-Eh?

0:39:370:39:38

Are you coming up?!

0:39:380:39:40

Nah, I can't.

0:39:400:39:42

Aw, come on!

0:39:420:39:44

Suit yourself!

0:39:460:39:47

What are we supposed to do with them?

0:39:470:39:49

Take them somewhere safe.

0:39:490:39:51

I saw him on the street yesterday. Knew something wasn't right.

0:39:510:39:56

I should've done something.

0:39:560:39:58

You couldn't have known you'd find this.

0:39:580:40:00

Hey! What are you doing in my house?

0:40:000:40:02

We were concerned about your children.

0:40:020:40:04

What business is it of yours? Get your hands off my baby!

0:40:040:40:07

-Stay where you are.

-We're taking your children to the hospital.

0:40:070:40:10

You're not taking them anywhere.

0:40:100:40:12

You're in no fit state to look after them, you're drunk.

0:40:120:40:15

-I am not!

-I can smell it from here.

0:40:150:40:16

-Get out, all of you! Just get out!

-Take the baby outside, please.

0:40:160:40:20

No!

0:40:200:40:21

We're going for a ride in a police car. Would you like that?

0:40:210:40:24

I said you're not taking him! Come here.

0:40:240:40:26

Mrs Miller.

0:40:260:40:27

Irene, please, let him go.

0:40:270:40:29

Please don't do this.

0:40:290:40:31

If I'm in jail, they'll put them in care.

0:40:310:40:33

I'm sorry. Let go.

0:40:330:40:35

SHE SPITS

0:40:370:40:39

Right, that's it.

0:40:390:40:40

You bitch! You bitch! You've got no right! Let go.

0:40:400:40:44

Stay there!

0:40:440:40:46

I hear you saved a couple of kids today.

0:40:530:40:55

I suppose I did, sir. So how come I feel so guilty?

0:40:550:40:59

Cos there's only so much we can do.

0:40:590:41:02

Thanks again, Miss Stewart. I'll see you out.

0:41:020:41:05

She just signed a formal statement against Donald Palmer.

0:41:140:41:17

Goodnight, Dawson.

0:41:190:41:21

MUSIC: "Earth Angel" by The Crew Cuts

0:41:210:41:24

Next time you're late, you'll have to go without.

0:41:310:41:34

It'll be tough as old boots by now, but I'll hear no complaints.

0:41:340:41:38

You'll never guess who I saw down in the shops.

0:41:400:41:43

Your friend Jane, from school.

0:41:430:41:45

Seven months gone, can you believe it?

0:41:450:41:49

Happily married and loving every minute.

0:41:490:41:53

# My darling dear Love you all the time

0:41:530:41:58

# I'm just a fool A fool in love with you

0:41:580:42:05

# Earth angel, Earth angel

0:42:090:42:13

# The one I adore

0:42:130:42:17

# Love you for ever and ever more

0:42:170:42:21

# I'm just a fool A fool in love with you... #

0:42:220:42:30

SHE SCREAMS

0:42:370:42:39

Sylvia Stewart made a statement.

0:42:440:42:46

Palmer attacked her and he'll answer for it in court, Wednesday.

0:42:460:42:50

Case closed.

0:42:500:42:51

HE YELLS

0:42:510:42:53

-Get up and see to your children!

-Stop it!

0:42:530:42:56

Today we lay William Parker to rest.

0:42:560:43:00

SHOUTING AND SCREAMING

0:43:000:43:02

I've had too much to drink.

0:43:040:43:05

I think you've had just the right amount.

0:43:050:43:07

Put your hands in the air. Put your hands where I can see them.

0:43:070:43:10

-Sorry, sir.

-Sorry doesn't even cover it, Fenton!

0:43:100:43:12

You've made a complete laughing stock of us!

0:43:120:43:15

You ought to make up your mind what you want.
