We'll see the village's dynamic crime fighters sift through | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |

Without further ado, let's say hello to our Armchair Detectives. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
-Armchair Detectives, hello. ALL: -Hello! | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
They're so cheerful, I love them. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
Now only three of you play each day, so please take your armchairs, | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
James, Kathryn and Bola. Come on up, come on up. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
Welcome, Armchair Detectives. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
As you know by now, the detectives who guess the killer correctly | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
will win one of these - the gorgeous golden magnifying glass trophy. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:35 | |
-AUDIENCE: -Ooh! | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Now, you've all played twice before. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
Kathryn and James have a 100% record. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
What's the secret to your success, do you think, James? | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
I've got a really good eye for detail and I'm good at pic... | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
piecing everything together, and I think that's... | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
I don't want to mention my job too much | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
because I want to keep it at the end of this, so if I get it wrong... | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
I mean, you kind of have mentioned it so...you are. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
-You're a detective. -Yes. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
-Yes. -No, I am a detective! | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Kathryn, what's the secret to your success? | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
When I was about 12 | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
I was given as a present | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
a biography of a very famous pathologist, | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
and I've been really interested in pathology | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
-and forensic medicine since then. -Which pathologist was it? | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
Sir Bernard Spilsbury. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
-I've read that one, it's very interesting indeed. -It's very good. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
-Absolutely. Now, Bola. -Hi. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
-You haven't won yet. -No. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:30 | |
I can't tell you how much I want you | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
to win a golden magnifying glass trophy today. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
Have you been psyching yourself up? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
Yeah. Definitely going to be taking my notes, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
but I'm not going to panic last minute as much as I did | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
-the last two times. -Absolutely. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
Well, we're rooting for you, we're rooting for you - | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
all of you Armchair Detectives, good luck. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
It's time for round one, the Crime Scene. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
Knight and Slater have been called into Mortcliff College, | 0:02:51 | 0:02:55 | |
and it's not because a pupil handed their homework in late. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
Notepads at the ready - | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
for the first time today, let's go to Mortcliff. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
Bring back memories, Slater? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Yeah! I was a science luminary. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
You? | 0:03:22 | 0:03:23 | |
Oh, my strongest subject was always poetry. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
There's nothing that explores the human condition | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
quite like poetry, Slater. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
No, you're right, sorry, sir. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Ah, Ms Webster, is it? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:36 | |
-Yes, hello, detectives. -Hi. -Hi. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
How's Mr Roberts? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Not too good, I'm afraid. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:42 | |
Did you notice anything suspicious this morning? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
In fact, yeah. When I arrived, | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
I thought I saw someone jumping out of a window around the south side, | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
at least I think I did. I can't be too sure. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
It happened so quickly. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
Well, if you think of anything else, do give DC Slater a call. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
I can take you to the room just now. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
Thank you. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:04 | |
Hi, anything so far? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
Seems like a heart attack. No other injuries. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:11 | |
I'm not optimistic about prints, | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
there's so many staff members come in and out of this room. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
Time of death? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:17 | |
About 9.40 am. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
Victim is a Miss Emma Kean, 50 years old. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
She died during a fire drill. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
She came back in to get her register. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
The door was broken, so they had to force entry to get to her. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
She was found by a Mr Roberts. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
Who scheduled the drill? | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
It wasn't a scheduled drill. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
I think you boys need to work out who raised the alarm. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
It's on my list, m'lady. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:41 | |
Do you know where this Mr Roberts is? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
I think he's in the art room. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:45 | |
Thanks, Simmons. We'll let you get on with your work. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
Yeah, thanks, Simmons. Get on with your work. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
I could hide your body and no-one would ever find it. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
Mr Roberts, I'm sorry for your loss. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
Do you feel able to answer some questions right now? | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
Go ahead. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:07 | |
Can you tell us what happened this morning? | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
I... | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
Yes. I arrived at about 8.30, normal time. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:24 | |
Greeted pupils and teachers at the gate. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
Ms Kean arrived late. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
I was chatting in the staff room, | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
and then the fire alarm went off, | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
so I went outside to see what was happening, | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
and carried out the evacuation procedure in the playground. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
And Ms Kean went back? | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
She went back for the register. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:49 | |
I went back inside with Mr Fawcett | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
and opened the fire alarm cabinet | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
and reset the alarm. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
I noticed the handle on the office door | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
was off on both sides. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
I looked through the hole and... | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
..and saw her. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:14 | |
HE SOBS | 0:06:18 | 0:06:19 | |
She'd just been voted Teacher of the Year. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
Why?! | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
Luckily, we do have CCTV on the south side. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
I thought you may want to have a look at this. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
So it's about 9.30, that's when the fire alarm had already gone off. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:50 | |
She climbs in, and five minutes later... | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
..she climbs out the window, see? | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
-Can we get a copy of this? -Yeah. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
Pity we can't see her face and what she's carrying. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Oh, I can't tell you what, but I can tell you who. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho, this is a good one. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
There's going to be a lot of suspects. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
-You think it'll be just a school photo? -Yes! | 0:07:16 | 0:07:20 | |
Just give me the yearbook, that's fine, we'll work from that. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
What about what you've seen so far? | 0:07:26 | 0:07:28 | |
So I think from where she was found | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
there's possibly going to be quite a lot of DNA in there. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
-Yeah. -So we saw the brownies, didn't we? So.. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
Yes, there was a... The camera lingered on the... | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
-that plate of brownies. -Yes, the camera also lingered on | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
-some coffee cups in the bin. -Yep. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
-And some coffee cups that were stacked up as well. -Yep. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
Suspected heart attack makes me think | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
maybe we're going down the route of maybe a poisoning. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
-Could be, could be. -Something to raise the heart. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
Gemma Webster, wasn't it, that... | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
She said she'd seen somebody jump out the window on the south side. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
Miss Webster, yep, mm-hmm. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
So I think that's been confirmed, hasn't it, by the CCTV? | 0:08:04 | 0:08:08 | |
Yeah, Craig Thomas, yeah, Craig Thomas showed us the CCTV. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
-And on the CCTV he kept on referring to her as "she". -She. Yep. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:15 | |
-She, and that she was carrying something. -Yep. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
He can't tell us what she was carrying... | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
-We couldn't see her face, either. -No, but he knows who it is. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
-He knows who it is. -Right. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
I think... I think it was very striking that Mr Roberts, | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
that was an extraordinary state of grief, so... | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
-Very emotional, wasn't he? Very emotional. -Very, very emotional. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
-And he's also wearing a wedding ring, so he is married. -Yeah. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Let me just tell you about the victim. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
We're investigating the death of Ms Emma Kean, who was 50. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:43 | |
She was an art teacher, and married. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
The cause of death is a suspected heart attack | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
and the time of death is approximately 9.40am. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:54 | |
-So.. -Well, she's an attractive woman. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
-Yes. -Married. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Could be that she was having a relationship | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
with another married teacher. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
Possibly. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
-We also know that she arrived late that day. -Yes. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
-Why was she late? -Why was she late? | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
Let me put the suspects up for you | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
so we can talk about them a little bit more. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
We've got... | 0:09:17 | 0:09:18 | |
Miss Gemma Webster, who's a science teacher. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
Mr Ken Roberts, who's the headmaster. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
And Craig Thomas, who's the caretaker. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
-Now, remind me, who found the body? -Ken Roberts. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
-That was Ken Roberts. -Yes. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
-He looked through the hole. -Yes. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
But he said.. Didn't he say that the handle | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
-was off the door on both sides? -Yes, the lock was off on both sides. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
-Do you know, I... -When a handle falls off a door, | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
-it's normally just on... just on one side, isn't it? -Yes. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
So does that make us believe that she couldn't get out? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
I'm not trusting Ken at the moment. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
-Yeah. -There's something that's been missed. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
-Quite.. Quite emotional, wasn't he? -Yeah. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
So let me try and help you out a bit with your first piece of evidence. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
Here is a still from the CCTV shown by Craig to the detectives. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:04 | |
So this is what the caretaker was talking about when he said "she" - | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
that was his assumption - "is going through the window | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
"carrying something." | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
Well, that... That looks like a sort of printed carrier bag, doesn't it? | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
-Yeah. -Does it? | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
They're wearing sort of school uniformy trousers. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
9.30am is the timestamp. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
-Yes. -OK. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:26 | |
-9.30, it's the time the fire alarm went off. -Went off. -Yeah. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
So does that person know that... | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-has arranged to have the fire alarm set off so that... -As a cover. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
So that she knows that | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
that teacher is going to go into the office for the... | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
-for the register, to take out to call. -Interesting. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
It is interesting. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:44 | |
Let's see if we can move further forward in the investigation | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
with round two. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
Last Movements. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
Back to Mortcliff College, | 0:10:51 | 0:10:52 | |
where caretaker Craig has got his hands full. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
Notepads at the ready, off we go. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
Mr Roberts, look, I am sick of cleaning this graffiti. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
We need to put an end to it. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
Right. We need to find out who it is. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
I know who it is. It's that new girl, Penny Kingdom. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
Mr Roberts, could we have a chat about me hiring a new assistant? | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
My workload is bigger than everyone else's, and I can't keep up. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
I'm sorry, Ms Webster, there's just no money. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
There wasn't the first time you asked and there isn't now. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
-I'm very sorry. -Well, can't Ms Kean share hers? | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
That's not possible, and you know it's not. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
Everyone's busy - not just you. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
How's the planning going for the science trip? | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
Fine. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:42 | |
Hello! | 0:11:45 | 0:11:46 | |
Nice of you to join us, Ms Kean. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
-There. -Ah, thank you. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
-I thought you might need it. -Kind of. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
Want a brownie? They're from Penny. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
I think she's trying hard to make up for her behaviour. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
You doing a stock-take? | 0:12:10 | 0:12:11 | |
Just marking art supplies. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
There's been a far amount of spray paint going missing recently. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
Poor Craig has spent hours scrubbing the walls this week. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
FIRE ALARM RINGS | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
-Oh, no, I've left the register inside. -I'll go and get it. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:38 | |
You shouldn't go back inside until we find out what caused the alarm. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
Probably a misbehaved child - come on, that's what it usually is. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
-But you don't know... -It's fine. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
Sorry, we were interrupted earlier. I've had my coffee now. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
What were you saying about this graffiti artist? | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
It's definitely Penny Kingdom. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
Only started when she arrived, and she's always in trouble. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
Her and her minions. I'll be back. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
Hi, can I help you? | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
I'm Henry Fawcett, the history sub. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
Hi, I'm Mr Roberts, the head. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:04 | |
Sorry I'm late - trains. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
No problem. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
Sorry about the chaos, we're investigating the fire alarm. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
False alarm, Mr Roberts. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:13 | |
No problem. Could you send everyone back inside? | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
SIREN WAILS | 0:13:37 | 0:13:38 | |
Hang on...what are you thinking? | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
So, first of all...I'm thinking Mr Roberts has lied. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:52 | |
-Yes. -Because he didn't reset the fire alarm, did he? | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
-No. -No, he didn't. -He's outside. Yeah. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
He delivered a drink to Ms Kean, | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
he left it with one sugar on the desk | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
while she was labelling up the spray paint. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
-Spray paint's been going missing. -Yeah. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
The person that they think has been doing the spray-painting is Penny. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
Yeah, so Penny gave brownies to Ms Kean to make up for her behaviour. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
-Yep. -I.. I found it quite significant | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
when the headmaster said rather ostentatiously, | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
"Oh, dear, I have forgotten the register," | 0:14:21 | 0:14:24 | |
and she said, "Oh, I'll go and get it," | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
and there was something about the way he did that. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
We can now add Mr Henry Fawcett, the substitute teacher, | 0:14:29 | 0:14:33 | |
and Penny Kingdom, who we've not met yet. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:38 | |
So.. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
Don't know if anybody else picked up | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
-but it seems that Gemma wasn't fond of Mrs Kean. -Yeah. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
She spoke about her heavy workload. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
-Mr Roberts passed it off. -Yeah. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
Let's try and move it forward. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
It's time to pick your next piece of evidence. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
We have the graffiti message on the wall that Craig was cleaning, | 0:14:56 | 0:15:01 | |
a police report on the office door barged open | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
before discovering the victim, | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
and finally, a police report on the school fire alarm box. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:11 | |
-Something's drawing me towards the graffiti. -Oh, is it? | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
Yeah, and it's kind of one of the most obvious, I think, | 0:15:14 | 0:15:19 | |
to not go for, but it could be | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
somebody trying to set somebody else up. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
Could it be a rude... A rude poem or a rude slogan | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
about "Miss So-and-so and Mr So-and-so are..." | 0:15:26 | 0:15:29 | |
Yeah, possibly. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
I'm... I'm inclined to go to the office door at the moment. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
Let's go for the office door. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
OK, let's see the office door. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
Door handle totally detached, | 0:15:38 | 0:15:42 | |
witness reports state door jammed closed. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
Possibility of tampering not definitive. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:51 | |
It's not necessarily that it hasn't been tampered with, | 0:15:51 | 0:15:54 | |
-they just can't prove it. -There's no proof there, is there? | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
It looks like the handle could have just fallen off. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
Apart from the marks where probably the handle was fitted | 0:16:00 | 0:16:03 | |
in the first place, there doesn't appear to be any marks round the... | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
-the catch, does there? -Why did Mr Roberts say | 0:16:06 | 0:16:09 | |
you could only see her by looking through the hole? | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
There's windows in the door! | 0:16:13 | 0:16:15 | |
ALL: Ohhh! | 0:16:15 | 0:16:16 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
I didn't even notice that, James, | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
and I'm this close to the screen! | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
There's a window! | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
So we now know, I mean, that's two lies we've caught him in now. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
-Two lies, yeah. -Very interesting. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
It's that moment, Armchair Detectives, to write down | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
and name your prime suspect. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:36 | |
Will it be Gemma, Ken, | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
Craig, Henry, or Penny? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
It's time to find out who your prime suspects are. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:50 | |
James, who have you gone for? | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
-Ken Roberts, the headmaster. -Why? | 0:16:52 | 0:16:54 | |
There's a lot of lies coming out of his mouth at the moment. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:58 | |
Call it a copper's nose, but I'm bit suspicious of him at the moment. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:01 | |
-Kathryn. -I have gone for the same chap, Ken. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:05 | |
As James said, we've.. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:07 | |
we've detected him in not one, but two lies, | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
and also there was something odd about his grief, it was... | 0:17:10 | 0:17:13 | |
There was a touch of the theatrical about it. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Yes, it was a little bit theatrical. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
Bola, what do you think? Who's your prime suspect? | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
I've gone for Ken Roberts also. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
-Full house. Full house. -Yes. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
It's probably the most emotion we've kind of seen, | 0:17:25 | 0:17:29 | |
but also it was... It didn't feel genuine. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
Yes. So in summary, every single one of our Armchair Detectives | 0:17:31 | 0:17:36 | |
thinks it's Ken. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:37 | |
Let's see what happens now - it's on to round three, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
the Police Interviews. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:41 | |
Knight and Slater have called in Penny and Craig for questioning. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:46 | |
Who's hiding secrets in this textbook case? | 0:17:46 | 0:17:49 | |
It's off to Mortcliff Police Station. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
Further searches in the school | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
revealed something pretty interesting. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
The victim was poisoned, an unusual chemical for a school lab. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:09 | |
Sodium azide. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:10 | |
Yeah, no, that is quite unusual, Simmons. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:14 | |
I did tell you I was a science boffin, sir. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:18 | |
Anything else? | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
May have something, but just need to confirm a few things. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:25 | |
I'll keep you in the loop. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
Oh, there were loose screws in the room we found the body. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
I'd say the door had been tampered with. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
What were you doing on Wednesday morning around 9.15? | 0:18:38 | 0:18:42 | |
At school. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:45 | |
Whereabouts? | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
I was evacuating the building because of the alarm. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
That's interesting, because, you see, we have CCTV pictures | 0:18:52 | 0:18:56 | |
showing that everyone else was rushing out of the building, | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
while you were actually climbing back in. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:03 | |
You have quite a track record for vandalism and truancy, Miss Kingdom. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:14 | |
Early starter, too. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
No suggestion of physically violent behaviour, | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
but there's always a first time, I suppose. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
I hurt no-one, pal. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:23 | |
Well, you see, I can't really take that at face value | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
if you continue to refuse to tell us exactly what you were doing | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
at the time Ms Kean was murdered. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:31 | |
I... | 0:19:36 | 0:19:37 | |
I stole some spray paint from the art department. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
I wanted to do some graffiti. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
Why was that? | 0:19:44 | 0:19:45 | |
That creep Mr Thomas is out to get me, | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
so I thought I'd give him something to moan about. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
I knew it was Penny Kingdom doing the graffiti. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
It didn't take a rocket scientist to work it out. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:00 | |
It started when she came to the school. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
Did you threaten her? | 0:20:04 | 0:20:05 | |
No. I told her she was a criminal, and she is. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
The graffiti she wrote appears as though it was directed at you. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:12 | |
What does it mean, exactly? | 0:20:14 | 0:20:15 | |
I have no idea. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
Mr Thomas... | 0:20:17 | 0:20:18 | |
..we have Ms Kean's mobile phone records. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:25 | |
It appears that she made calls from your address | 0:20:26 | 0:20:31 | |
on three separate occasions over the last two weeks. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
After school hours. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
Can you tell us what she was doing at your house? | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
Well, she wanted to ask my opinion | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
on plans the school had for renovations. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
At ten o'clock at night? | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
In summer, one loses track of time. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
What do you think of Mr Roberts? | 0:20:55 | 0:20:57 | |
Do you mean do I think he killed her? | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
I think Mr Roberts and Ms Kean had a pretty decent relationship, | 0:20:59 | 0:21:03 | |
you know, seemed to get on well enough. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
I don't think that's important. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:06 | |
I'd look at Penny. Honestly, she's a disaster, | 0:21:06 | 0:21:09 | |
and I think she's gone too far this time. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
"In summer, one loses track of time." Oh, really, Mr Thomas? | 0:21:16 | 0:21:21 | |
Eh, eh? We met Penny - what do we think of her? | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
What I noticed initially, I thought, "Ohh!" | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
was the spray paint on her fingers. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
Yeah, I noticed that, the blue spray paint. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:31 | |
Yeah, the blue spray paint. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:32 | |
In actual fact, she even admitted stealing it. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
It was also hinted during the interviews | 0:21:35 | 0:21:38 | |
that the graffiti relates to Craig Thomas. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
-Thomas, yeah. -Yeah. -So has Penny discovered | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
that Craig Thomas and Mrs Kean are maybe having a...? | 0:21:44 | 0:21:49 | |
I definitely think so, I definitely think so. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:52 | |
What we also found out on this video | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
was that she was killed by poisoning. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:57 | |
I do think it's through the coffee, | 0:21:57 | 0:21:59 | |
because coffee is featuring a lot in these videos. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:02 | |
There's a lot of coffee. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:04 | |
Let's try and help you out with some more evidence, | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
see if we can move this forward. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
Once again, you can pick a piece of evidence from the list. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
The graffiti message on the wall that Craig was cleaning, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
a police report on the school fire alarm, | 0:22:14 | 0:22:17 | |
or the new piece of evidence, | 0:22:17 | 0:22:18 | |
which is the sodium azide bottle from the school lab. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:23 | |
I'm still curious about the graffiti, I'm going to be honest, | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
and the police officer didn't state that it was about Craig, | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
-AND Mrs Kean, he just said it was about him. -No, about him. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
-Penny referred to him in her interview as a creep. -Exactly, yeah. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
I'm interested in the fire alarm, | 0:22:36 | 0:22:37 | |
but I'm also interested in the sodium azide bottle, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
especially when Ms Webster's the chemistry teacher. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
-Oh... -Oh, hello, James. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:47 | |
What do you want to see, Armchair Detectives? | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
Right. Based on what you've just said, the last bit, | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
I'm going to swing from graffiti to... | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
-yeah, the sodium azide. -The sodium? -Yes. | 0:22:55 | 0:22:57 | |
-The sodium azide bottle, yes? -Yeah. -Yeah? -Yes. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
OK, let's see the bottle. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
Sodium azide is a highly toxic substance | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
and is poisonous if consumed. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
The bottle states that the substance should be handled with extreme care. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:12 | |
Explodes when a small electrical current is passed through it. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:18 | |
Heart attack. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:19 | |
It's time to pick your prime suspect again. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
Let's have a look at the board. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
Is it Gemma, Ken, | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
Craig, Henry, or Penny? | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
Please write down your prime suspect now. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
Let's see who your prime suspects are. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
James, last time you went for Ken - this time? | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
-I've went for Ken again. -Ken again? | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
Yes. There's still a lot of inconsistencies | 0:23:45 | 0:23:48 | |
that have not been answered yet. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
Kathryn, last time you went for Ken, who have you gone for this time? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
-I'm sticking with Ken. -Sticking with Ken? -His... | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
His lies, his ostentatious grief, | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
there's just something that I find very uneasy-making about him. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
Something not right. As my mum would say, something not right. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:08 | |
-He's a bit shifty. -Bola. -Yes. -Last time you went for Ken. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:11 | |
Yes. I'm sticking. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
-Sticking with Ken. -Yes. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
-Still all Kens. -Yes. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
I'm going to be honest, I am curious about Ms Webster, | 0:24:17 | 0:24:22 | |
-that's where I'm at, but I've not had enough evidence yet. -Yeah. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:26 | |
OK, to summarise, then, all of our Armchair Detectives | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
think that Ken is the prime suspect. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
It's time now for round four - Dig Deeper. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
Notepads at the ready as we head back to Mortcliff College | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
and to the art classroom. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:41 | |
That's lovely - well done. | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
Good girl, Penny. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:53 | |
Um, yes, the red, a bit more. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:25:05 | 0:25:06 | |
Thank you, everybody. Please put everything away neatly. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:10 | |
Penny, detention is in here this afternoon, please stay seated. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
DOOR OPENS | 0:25:43 | 0:25:44 | |
Penny. Only you in detention today? | 0:25:46 | 0:25:49 | |
I guess so, sir. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
What homework do you have? | 0:25:51 | 0:25:52 | |
Science and English. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
OK, start with science, and we'll see how we go. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
PHONE VIBRATES | 0:26:06 | 0:26:08 | |
Sir. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
Honestly. What part of detention don't you understand? | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
Come on now, hand it over. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:25 | |
Now. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:27 | |
Sir... | 0:26:29 | 0:26:30 | |
Miss Webster's the best. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
Today she showed us how an airbag blows up | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
using this deadly chemical. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
It's this stuff, right, | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
and when it explodes it creates all this gas. It's magic. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:43 | |
And dangerous. We could only touch it with gloves. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:46 | |
You were a science teacher once, weren't you, sir? | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
Sir. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:52 | |
I know I've been really difficult, | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
but actually, this is the best school. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
The other four I've gone to weren't nearly as good. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
Right. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:04 | |
Thank you, Penny. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
-Really? -Really. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:09 | |
I'm...glad you like science. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:13 | |
I'm going to let you go early, | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
in the hope that your troubled behaviour has come to an end. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:20 | |
Yes, for sure. I promise you. You won't regret it, sir. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:24 | |
Sir, | 0:27:27 | 0:27:29 | |
do you really like Ms Kean like that? | 0:27:29 | 0:27:32 | |
Like, to have an affair with her? | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |
I can't have an affair with my own wife, Penny. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
Ohh! You've got another 15 minutes yet. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:50 | |
-Does Mr Roberts know you're off? -You ought to mind your own business. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:54 | |
I know girls like you. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
Troublemakers, vandals, criminals. | 0:27:56 | 0:28:00 | |
I'll get you expelled. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:02 | |
Is that a fact? | 0:28:02 | 0:28:03 | |
Watch this space. Then you'll really know what I'm capable of. | 0:28:04 | 0:28:08 | |
All right, Mr Roberts? | 0:28:16 | 0:28:18 | |
All right, Mr Thomas. Have a good evening. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
Boof! | 0:28:28 | 0:28:29 | |
Armchair Detectives, huge things happened. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
I just wanted confirmation from my colleagues. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:33 | |
So, do I understand that Ms Kean is actually Mrs Roberts? | 0:28:33 | 0:28:36 | |
Does this maybe explain why he was so upset when she died? | 0:28:36 | 0:28:41 | |
Yes, but why would he not say, "I'm married to her"? | 0:28:41 | 0:28:45 | |
-I mean, what... -I don't know, James! | 0:28:45 | 0:28:47 | |
I've just got a little theory that... | 0:28:47 | 0:28:51 | |
Penny knew it all, | 0:28:51 | 0:28:53 | |
she knew that Ms Kean | 0:28:53 | 0:28:55 | |
was spending time with Craig... | 0:28:55 | 0:28:59 | |
Yeah. | 0:28:59 | 0:29:00 | |
..and she obviously was messaging about seeing her with Mr Roberts... | 0:29:00 | 0:29:04 | |
Yeah. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:05 | |
-He's gone through her message history on her phone... -Yeah. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:08 | |
..and maybe worked out that his wife is having an affair... | 0:29:08 | 0:29:11 | |
..with Mr Thomas. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:14 | |
-APPLAUSE -Thanks. | 0:29:14 | 0:29:17 | |
James. | 0:29:17 | 0:29:19 | |
We also know that Mr Roberts used to be a science teacher. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:22 | |
Yeah, now, we've been talking about her being poisoned, | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
she can't have ingested it. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
Well, coffee... | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
A cup of coffee was delivered by Ken Roberts | 0:29:28 | 0:29:30 | |
when she was in the classroom. | 0:29:30 | 0:29:31 | |
-Yes. -Yeah. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:33 | |
So, here are the suspects for the case, the board is now full. | 0:29:33 | 0:29:36 | |
That's all of your suspects. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
There's still some unanswered questions with Penny. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:41 | |
She did threaten Craig. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:43 | |
Is it possible that he's been up to something untoward? | 0:29:43 | 0:29:47 | |
And she... | 0:29:47 | 0:29:48 | |
I don't know, maybe she's jealous of somebody. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:52 | |
So, once again, you get to pick a piece of evidence | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
from three choices. | 0:29:55 | 0:29:56 | |
There's a new item on the list. | 0:29:56 | 0:29:57 | |
So, the graffiti message on the wall that Craig was cleaning. | 0:29:57 | 0:30:01 | |
A police report on the school fire alarm box. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
And a new item, which is text messages from Penny's mobile phone. | 0:30:03 | 0:30:10 | |
I want to see this graffiti, what is it referring to? | 0:30:10 | 0:30:13 | |
I know. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:14 | |
But... | 0:30:14 | 0:30:15 | |
What has she got over him? | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
Bola's so convinced, I... | 0:30:17 | 0:30:18 | |
I think I'd like to have a look at it, it might have a shade on... | 0:30:18 | 0:30:21 | |
-Graffiti? -Graffiti. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:23 | |
We're going to take a look at the graffiti. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:25 | |
I did want to see the texts. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:26 | |
-"I know..." -Oh, wow. -"..what you did, Craig." | 0:30:26 | 0:30:31 | |
And it looks like somebody's | 0:30:31 | 0:30:34 | |
tried to hide what that says. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:37 | |
Oh, does it say something else as well? | 0:30:37 | 0:30:39 | |
It does, hang on. | 0:30:39 | 0:30:41 | |
What does it say? | 0:30:41 | 0:30:42 | |
The last letter on the... | 0:30:42 | 0:30:44 | |
has been turned into an R, A... | 0:30:44 | 0:30:47 | |
Oh, there's something there and I can't see it. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:50 | |
Hey, James, quite a good clue? | 0:30:50 | 0:30:52 | |
I went with it! | 0:30:54 | 0:30:55 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:30:55 | 0:30:56 | |
Didn't take long. | 0:30:56 | 0:30:58 | |
Well, we're going to have to move on. | 0:30:58 | 0:31:00 | |
So, let's get the suspects back up again. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:02 | |
Gemma, Ken, Craig, Henry, Penny. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:05 | |
Write them down for me. | 0:31:05 | 0:31:07 | |
Notepads down, please. | 0:31:12 | 0:31:15 | |
James, last time, you went for Ken. | 0:31:15 | 0:31:17 | |
Yeah. | 0:31:17 | 0:31:19 | |
Who's your prime suspect this time? | 0:31:19 | 0:31:20 | |
I've stuck with Ken. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:22 | |
Ken. Nothing has changed your mind? | 0:31:22 | 0:31:23 | |
No. I've still got so many unanswered questions. | 0:31:23 | 0:31:26 | |
Kathryn, last time, you went for Ken. | 0:31:26 | 0:31:29 | |
I.. I stuck with Ken, | 0:31:29 | 0:31:32 | |
but I now have serious misgivings | 0:31:32 | 0:31:34 | |
about having done so. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
-Why? -Well, I wonder... | 0:31:36 | 0:31:37 | |
I don't know for certain, | 0:31:37 | 0:31:39 | |
but I wondered if, what you could see in... | 0:31:39 | 0:31:43 | |
Written against that was sodium azide. | 0:31:43 | 0:31:46 | |
OK. Interesting theory. | 0:31:46 | 0:31:48 | |
Bola, last time, you went for Ken. | 0:31:48 | 0:31:50 | |
-Have you stuck with Ken? -Yes, I have. | 0:31:50 | 0:31:52 | |
Because? | 0:31:52 | 0:31:54 | |
In the morning, when she was late, | 0:31:54 | 0:31:56 | |
he was kind of offish with her. | 0:31:56 | 0:31:58 | |
-Yes. -"Nice of you to turn up." | 0:31:58 | 0:32:00 | |
Why would you not, kind of, come together | 0:32:00 | 0:32:03 | |
or leave around the same time? | 0:32:03 | 0:32:04 | |
Did they not leave the same house in the morning? I'm confused. | 0:32:04 | 0:32:07 | |
Yes. | 0:32:07 | 0:32:08 | |
Where was...? Indeed, where was...? | 0:32:08 | 0:32:10 | |
-Where was she? -Yeah. | 0:32:10 | 0:32:12 | |
The prime suspect for everyone is Ken, | 0:32:12 | 0:32:16 | |
lots of questions around Ken. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:19 | |
But it's time now for round five, the Final Clues. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
Are we any closer to solving this art attack? | 0:32:22 | 0:32:26 | |
Notepads at the ready, | 0:32:26 | 0:32:27 | |
let's go back to Mortcliff. | 0:32:27 | 0:32:30 | |
KNOCK AT DOOR | 0:32:40 | 0:32:41 | |
Come in. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:43 | |
Oh, hello again. | 0:32:43 | 0:32:44 | |
Is everything OK? | 0:32:44 | 0:32:46 | |
Mr Thomas... | 0:32:46 | 0:32:48 | |
were you having an affair with Ms Kean? | 0:32:48 | 0:32:51 | |
No. Absolutely not. | 0:32:51 | 0:32:53 | |
Really? | 0:32:53 | 0:32:55 | |
So you didn't string her along and then call the whole thing off? | 0:32:55 | 0:32:58 | |
Where has this come from? | 0:32:58 | 0:33:00 | |
We've retrieved the last text message Ms Kean sent to you | 0:33:00 | 0:33:04 | |
from her mobile phone, which reads... | 0:33:04 | 0:33:06 | |
"I cannot believe I almost chose mediocre passion | 0:33:06 | 0:33:09 | |
"over the special friendship I've always had, dot, dot, dot, | 0:33:09 | 0:33:12 | |
"thank you for helping me see the error of my ways. | 0:33:12 | 0:33:15 | |
"Full stop." | 0:33:15 | 0:33:16 | |
The woman was a cling-on, seriously. | 0:33:17 | 0:33:20 | |
She didn't understand when enough was enough | 0:33:20 | 0:33:22 | |
but, I swear to you, I had nothing to do with her death. | 0:33:22 | 0:33:25 | |
Speak to Ms Webster, | 0:33:25 | 0:33:26 | |
she was desperate to get the deputy head teacher position, | 0:33:26 | 0:33:29 | |
but Mr Roberts gave it to Ms Kean, | 0:33:29 | 0:33:31 | |
OBVIOUSLY, who didn't really deserve it. | 0:33:31 | 0:33:33 | |
If anyone had a reason to wish Emma Kean dead, it was her. | 0:33:33 | 0:33:36 | |
Ms Webster, hello. | 0:33:42 | 0:33:43 | |
Hello. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:45 | |
I've never seen a lab so pristine. | 0:33:45 | 0:33:48 | |
Thank you. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:49 | |
You must be a huge asset to the school. | 0:33:49 | 0:33:51 | |
Well you would have thought so, wouldn't you? | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
How can I help you today? | 0:33:53 | 0:33:55 | |
We were wondering if we could ask you some questions | 0:33:55 | 0:33:58 | |
regarding Penny Kingdom. | 0:33:58 | 0:33:59 | |
And we'd appreciate your expert opinion. | 0:33:59 | 0:34:02 | |
Do you know a chemical called sodium azide? | 0:34:02 | 0:34:06 | |
Yes. Not many schools have it, | 0:34:06 | 0:34:08 | |
but I got some in for a specific experiment. | 0:34:08 | 0:34:10 | |
That's odd, it's out of its place. | 0:34:19 | 0:34:22 | |
I always keep everything in alphabetical order. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:24 | |
It should be sodium azide first, | 0:34:24 | 0:34:26 | |
then sodium bicarbonate, | 0:34:26 | 0:34:28 | |
sodium chloride, | 0:34:28 | 0:34:29 | |
then sodium hydroxide. | 0:34:29 | 0:34:31 | |
So orderly. | 0:34:31 | 0:34:32 | |
Well, OCD, really. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:34 | |
Me, too. | 0:34:34 | 0:34:35 | |
So, the sodium azide was used | 0:34:35 | 0:34:38 | |
and then put back in the wrong place. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:41 | |
Sir, I'd be extremely careful touching that, | 0:34:41 | 0:34:44 | |
-it can be very harmful. -OK. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:46 | |
We'll need to take this away... | 0:34:53 | 0:34:54 | |
..as evidence. | 0:34:56 | 0:34:57 | |
-There's so much going on. -I know. | 0:34:59 | 0:35:02 | |
Tell me, Armchair Detectives. | 0:35:02 | 0:35:04 | |
I mean, to work backwards... | 0:35:04 | 0:35:06 | |
..Miss Webster, there, seemed genuinely gobsmacked | 0:35:08 | 0:35:10 | |
when she opened the cupboard and saw that the sodium azide was... | 0:35:10 | 0:35:14 | |
missing, so I... | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
I'm inclined to scratch her from the runners and riders in this. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:20 | |
Craig seemed very angry, didn't he? | 0:35:20 | 0:35:25 | |
And also, he was very quick... | 0:35:25 | 0:35:27 | |
very, very quick to put the blame on somebody else. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
Exactly. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:31 | |
Someone's been in that cupboard and they've took the...sodium azide. | 0:35:31 | 0:35:36 | |
-And put it back. -And put it back. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:38 | |
And it's under lock and key. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
One more piece of evidence, Armchair Detectives. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:43 | |
So, do you want a police report on the school fire alarm box | 0:35:43 | 0:35:47 | |
or the text messages from Penny's mobile phone? | 0:35:47 | 0:35:52 | |
-My instinct is to go for Penny's texts. -Yep. | 0:35:52 | 0:35:55 | |
Because clearly, there was something that the headmaster saw in them | 0:35:55 | 0:35:58 | |
that made him suddenly turn into Mr Nice Guy. | 0:35:58 | 0:36:01 | |
I do really want to see the fire alarm report, | 0:36:01 | 0:36:04 | |
cos someone put... | 0:36:04 | 0:36:05 | |
Someone set this fire alarm off deliberately. | 0:36:05 | 0:36:08 | |
Let's go for Penny's texts. | 0:36:10 | 0:36:12 | |
OK, decision made. Let's see Penny's texts. | 0:36:12 | 0:36:16 | |
So... | 0:36:16 | 0:36:17 | |
That's it, that's what he's seen. | 0:36:28 | 0:36:30 | |
-He's found out... -Yes. | 0:36:30 | 0:36:31 | |
..that she's with... | 0:36:31 | 0:36:33 | |
-Over the side with the caretaker. -The caretaker. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:36 | |
And that's why he turned into Mr Nice Guy | 0:36:36 | 0:36:39 | |
once he started reading the... | 0:36:39 | 0:36:41 | |
-And let her go. -And let her go. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:43 | |
And that's why Penny's put it on the...graffiti. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:45 | |
So, you're thinking that... | 0:36:45 | 0:36:47 | |
-Mr Roberts... -Yes. | 0:36:47 | 0:36:49 | |
-..saw that she was on her phone, picked up the text. -Yeah. | 0:36:49 | 0:36:51 | |
Obviously saw that she was talking about him and Ms Kean. | 0:36:51 | 0:36:55 | |
-Just after that... -Yeah. | 0:36:55 | 0:36:56 | |
..you saw the caretaker, Craig Thomas, | 0:36:56 | 0:36:58 | |
and Ken together in the corridor, | 0:36:58 | 0:37:01 | |
and Ken didn't want to speak to him. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:03 | |
It's the final moment we've all been waiting for. | 0:37:03 | 0:37:06 | |
Stop. | 0:37:06 | 0:37:07 | |
You're about to make your accusations. | 0:37:07 | 0:37:09 | |
Who will get the Golden Magnifying Glass? | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |
It's time to answer the only question that matters... | 0:37:14 | 0:37:18 | |
Whodunnit? | 0:37:18 | 0:37:20 | |
Armchair Detectives, pads down. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:28 | |
James, who are you accusing? | 0:37:29 | 0:37:33 | |
-I've stuck with Ken. -Ken. -Yeah. | 0:37:33 | 0:37:36 | |
I think he's got the motive, that he's found out that his wife | 0:37:36 | 0:37:39 | |
is having an affair, | 0:37:39 | 0:37:41 | |
that he's had the means - he used to be a science teacher, | 0:37:41 | 0:37:44 | |
and there was a lot of lies still unaccounted for. | 0:37:44 | 0:37:47 | |
Kathryn, who are you accusing? | 0:37:47 | 0:37:49 | |
I'm still with Ken for the same reasons, | 0:37:49 | 0:37:51 | |
there's unexplained lies, and also there's that convenient thing right | 0:37:51 | 0:37:55 | |
at the beginning where he said, "Oh, I've forgotten the register," | 0:37:55 | 0:37:59 | |
so I think he's rigged something in that... | 0:37:59 | 0:38:02 | |
..in that room. | 0:38:02 | 0:38:03 | |
-Bola. -I've stuck with Ken. -Ken. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:08 | |
All three of our Armchair Detectives are accusing Ken of the crime. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:15 | |
Now, you didn't pick this last piece of evidence. | 0:38:15 | 0:38:18 | |
Alarm is activated and accessed by a key, alarm box not tampered. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:24 | |
It's not been tampered with, so it is someone that's got access to it, | 0:38:24 | 0:38:28 | |
so that rules out, like, a pupil and the teachers... | 0:38:28 | 0:38:32 | |
The people that had access to it is Ken Roberts and also Craig Thomas. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:39 | |
What really happened in today's story - School's Out for Murder? | 0:38:39 | 0:38:44 | |
Who killed Miss Emma Kean? Let's find out whodunnit. | 0:38:44 | 0:38:49 | |
How well does Craig Thomas know his periodic table? | 0:39:02 | 0:39:05 | |
Well...but Gemma Webster? | 0:39:05 | 0:39:09 | |
She's very knowledgeable on chemicals and their effects. | 0:39:09 | 0:39:13 | |
And who was overlooked for a well-deserved promotion, sir? | 0:39:13 | 0:39:16 | |
Could well be a woman. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:18 | |
The fire alarm was activated so Emma Kean would be trapped | 0:39:20 | 0:39:25 | |
inside that office. The sodium azide was already in the chemistry lab. | 0:39:25 | 0:39:30 | |
Is Gemma Webster an improviser or a careful planner? | 0:39:32 | 0:39:35 | |
Careful planner for sure, sir, takes one to know one. | 0:39:35 | 0:39:39 | |
Far too careful to use something from her own lab. | 0:39:40 | 0:39:43 | |
Penny Kingdom. | 0:39:45 | 0:39:46 | |
Lost child, hardened by circumstance and neglect. | 0:39:47 | 0:39:51 | |
That's a poetic analysis, Slater. | 0:39:51 | 0:39:53 | |
-Do try, sir. -But was Penny hardened enough to kill? | 0:39:54 | 0:39:58 | |
No, I think if she did kill, it would be a spontaneous act. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:04 | |
I agree. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:05 | |
So we've had updates on the crime scene evidence. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:15 | |
It seems the office phone had been disabled. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:22 | |
-Had it? -And the door handle had been removed, | 0:40:27 | 0:40:31 | |
meaning Ms Kean couldn't get out of the office. | 0:40:31 | 0:40:34 | |
And tiny crystals of sodium azide | 0:40:34 | 0:40:36 | |
were found in the art department bin. | 0:40:36 | 0:40:39 | |
How on earth am I supposed to know what my wife or any other student | 0:40:43 | 0:40:48 | |
dumps into a bin? | 0:40:48 | 0:40:49 | |
Can you imagine why anyone would add sugar to a cup of coffee | 0:40:49 | 0:40:52 | |
in the classroom when they could have done it in the staff room? | 0:40:52 | 0:40:56 | |
And if you're taking coffee to someone you know, wouldn't you | 0:40:56 | 0:40:59 | |
just add the sugar yourself? | 0:40:59 | 0:41:01 | |
Are you insinuating that I put poison in her coffee? | 0:41:03 | 0:41:06 | |
What a ludicrous claim. | 0:41:06 | 0:41:08 | |
The person you should really be talking to is Penny Kingdom - | 0:41:08 | 0:41:11 | |
she could have poisoned any one of us. | 0:41:11 | 0:41:13 | |
I don't think so. Sodium azide is a nasty poison, | 0:41:13 | 0:41:16 | |
but it doesn't kill instantly. | 0:41:16 | 0:41:18 | |
Slater knows his periodic table, as I'm sure do you, | 0:41:19 | 0:41:22 | |
having been a science teacher for many years. | 0:41:22 | 0:41:24 | |
You can't just take... | 0:41:24 | 0:41:26 | |
And I also believe you knew your wife was having an affair | 0:41:26 | 0:41:29 | |
with Craig Thomas. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:30 | |
He wasn't the first, either. | 0:41:38 | 0:41:39 | |
He probably wouldn't have been the last. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:44 | |
Penny Kingdom knew. She was telling the whole school. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:53 | |
I was a laughing stock. | 0:41:53 | 0:41:54 | |
The message at the bottom of this page is the last text | 0:42:02 | 0:42:07 | |
she sent to Craig Thomas. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:08 | |
It appears she realised your worth after all. | 0:42:14 | 0:42:17 | |
HE SOBS | 0:42:17 | 0:42:19 | |
Well done, Armchair Detectives - you all caught today's killer | 0:42:26 | 0:42:30 | |
and Bola's got her first gold magnifying glass trophy! | 0:42:30 | 0:42:32 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:36 | |
Armchair Detectives, how many of you got that right? | 0:42:38 | 0:42:40 | |
Yeah, see, I keep thinking it's too obvious and going for the wrong one. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:46 | |
Come back tomorrow where we'll see Knight and Slater | 0:42:46 | 0:42:49 | |
mix with the tweed-wearing upper class of Mortcliff | 0:42:49 | 0:42:52 | |
as they investigate a crime at a stunning country house. | 0:42:52 | 0:42:56 | |
And remember, no-one gets away with murder in Mortcliff. Goodbye. | 0:42:57 | 0:43:03 | |
-Well done, darling. -Thank you. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:07 | |
Well done, sweetie. | 0:43:07 | 0:43:08 | |
Well done, darling. | 0:43:08 | 0:43:10 |
