0:00:35 > 0:00:39Our studio detectives are placed at the centre of a crime scene,

0:00:53 > 0:00:56and Scene Of Crime Officer Simmons.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58I'm curious about their lives, I'll be honest with you.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Before we had to Mortcliff for the first time,

0:01:00 > 0:01:03let's meet today's Armchair Detectives.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello, Armchair Detectives.

0:01:05 > 0:01:06- ALL:- Hi!

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Oh, you're always so bright and breezy and up for it.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Now only three of you can play each day,

0:01:11 > 0:01:13so please take your armchairs,

0:01:13 > 0:01:15Simon, Bola and Charley.

0:01:15 > 0:01:16Come on up.

0:01:24 > 0:01:25So, Simon, tell me,

0:01:25 > 0:01:29what do you do when you're not playing Armchair Detectives?

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Well, Susan, I'm a tour guide.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34Oh, lovely. Are you looking forward to today, Simon?

0:01:34 > 0:01:35Oh, can't wait.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37Oh, he's rubbing his hands with glee.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Bola, welcome. What do you do when

0:01:39 > 0:01:41you're not being an Armchair Detective?

0:01:41 > 0:01:42So I'm a business consultant.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Are you going to be a leader of the Armchair Detectives?

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Yeah, but I reckon we're going to work as a team first and foremost,

0:01:48 > 0:01:51but absolutely, I'll be getting my point across!

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Ooh! Charley, now I hear your

0:01:54 > 0:01:56partner's also an Armchair Detective.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59- She is indeed.- Where?- That's Laura, sitting over there.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Hi, Laura. And so, who usually picks out the murderer?

0:02:02 > 0:02:04I've got a little bit of a cheat on this one, because

0:02:04 > 0:02:06I was a detective for the Metropolitan Police

0:02:06 > 0:02:07for nearly ten years.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10- Oh, aye, here we are! - Yeah.- Here we go.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13Well, let's see if that helps you at all, Charley!

0:02:13 > 0:02:15If any of these guys guess the killer,

0:02:15 > 0:02:17then this is what they're going to win.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20That's right, it's the Armchair Detectives

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Golden magnifying glass.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24- ALL:- Ooh!

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Now, just to let you know, Armchair Detectives,

0:02:27 > 0:02:29I have no idea who the killer is either,

0:02:29 > 0:02:33so I'm going to be playing along with you all as well.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37Let's begin, as it's time for round one, the Crime Scene.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Notepads at the ready for the first time today.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Let's head over to Bay Cliffs in Mortcliff.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58What did the seagull say to the police officer?

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Now, now, Simmons, it's be kind to the DC day.

0:03:02 > 0:03:04- I'm working on my own today.- Right.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Well, we have a fall victim.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10We've seen far too many of these over the last year or two.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12That's the fifth around the same spot.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Who is the victim?

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Jemma Hall.

0:03:15 > 0:03:20Broken bones and internal injuries consistent with a long fall.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Her boyfriend's just over there.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26- Thanks, Simmons.- Cheers, Simmons.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32Jemma and I were walking across the top of the cliff about an hour ago.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34We were here to meet an old school friend of Jemma's

0:03:34 > 0:03:36who'd recently been in touch.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39We were here early and I needed the toilet.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41I went off to find a bush.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43It was right after that that I heard the scream.

0:03:43 > 0:03:44Did you notice anything else?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47I heard someone running. I thought it was Jemma.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49When I came back to the path, she wasn't there.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52I looked over and saw her lying at the bottom of the cliff.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55I dialled 999 and ran down the steps but...

0:03:55 > 0:03:57..she was already dead.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59We're very sorry for your loss, Dale.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00Is there anything else that you can tell us

0:04:00 > 0:04:02that may be of some importance?

0:04:02 > 0:04:04She was a happy person.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06We wanted to get married. There's no way this was suicide.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Can you show me where that bush is?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12It's a big bush by the blocks over there.

0:04:16 > 0:04:17Is everything OK?

0:04:19 > 0:04:20There's been a fatality.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23How long have you been in the area today, sir?

0:04:23 > 0:04:25I've only just arrived for my walk.

0:04:25 > 0:04:26I do so every day.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29Have you noticed anything unusual?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Nope. This seems to be quite the hot spot for jumpers these days.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37How long did you say you've been walking in the area today, sir?

0:04:37 > 0:04:38Maybe just under half an hour.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42I didn't do it, if that's what you're thinking.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46I have a tracker on my phone.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48- I can show you.- Why have you got a tracker?

0:04:48 > 0:04:51It tells me how far I've walked and exactly where I've been.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53I like to track my hikes.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55OK. We'll need the data off that.

0:04:57 > 0:04:58I'll take your details.

0:04:59 > 0:05:00What's your name?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03McBride. Hamish McBride.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07No fencing or barriers.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09There are warning signs, though.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13How long do you think this path runs for?

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Looking at the erosion, it probably changes all the time.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Look at that, sir. Phone.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21I'll get Simmons.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Oh, and I want that bush tested.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26The one Dale says he urinated behind, just to be sure.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Sure. But we only have his version of events.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31He could have easily pushed her over.

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Thank you, sir.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Least I can do, Slater.

0:05:47 > 0:05:48Four hits, sir.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52You'll have to elaborate.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54After what Simmons said, I searched for the deaths during the

0:05:54 > 0:05:56past year within a mile of the cliffs.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Four hits came back,

0:05:58 > 0:05:59not including Jemma Hall.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02All of them had fallen from the very same cliff.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06David Parkin, 55, from Parryvale,

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Liana Scofield, 24 from Mortcliff.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Lewis Murphy, 35 and

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Liam Clarke, also 35 from Mortcliff.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Any connection between the victims?

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Well, three years ago, they all served on the same jury together.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22A man called Brendan Wilson was charged - convicted, too - for fraud.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24Got six years for it.

0:06:24 > 0:06:25He died in prison.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27I spoke to an officer who interviewed Jemma's parents.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29Jemma's father said that she'd

0:06:29 > 0:06:31become friends with another juror

0:06:31 > 0:06:33and that they died at the same place.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35The Procurator Fiscal has already

0:06:35 > 0:06:39given us special permission to see the full juror list.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41Looks like someone wasn't happy with the verdict.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46Any of the other jurors live in the local area?

0:06:46 > 0:06:48- Yeah, three.- OK.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Let's get them in for questioning, right away.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Well.- Ooh!

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Audible gasps from the Armchair Detectives.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00The killer's fast.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02I think he's actually quite young, athletic,

0:07:02 > 0:07:07because if the boyfriend went behind the bush, quickly run up, push,

0:07:07 > 0:07:08quickly leg it back.

0:07:08 > 0:07:12I'm possibly erring on somebody on the same jury

0:07:12 > 0:07:15that could have been the murderer.

0:07:15 > 0:07:17But that's just my initial views.

0:07:17 > 0:07:18- OK.- Yeah.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22Well, today we are investigating the death of Jemma Hall.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26She was 25, and a barmaid.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Jemma's boyfriend was Dale Coleman.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32The cause of death is a suspected fall from a height,

0:07:32 > 0:07:36causing fatal internal injury to Jemma's vital organs.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40The time of death is approximately 10am.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42With the boyfriend, you know, what was her relationship like?

0:07:42 > 0:07:45If she's in a bar every single day with people cracking onto her,

0:07:45 > 0:07:48was he the jealous type? Was he not?

0:07:48 > 0:07:51She... I don't think she was that important to the killer.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54There was no hardly planning involved, you know.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58You push someone, it is literally a five-second split.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03OK. We have Dale Coleman, who is the boyfriend, and Hamish McBride,

0:08:03 > 0:08:07who was in the area when the victim died.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Now we haven't really spoken about Hamish.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12He's got quite quick with the explanation about the tracker.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16If someone volunteers information, then I'm automatically suspicious.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17It's the ABCs.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Assume nothing, believe no-one and challenge everyone.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22OK, so each round, you'll get to pick

0:08:22 > 0:08:25evidence to interrogate more closely.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Here's a piece to start you off.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31And we have a map of the Bay Cliff area.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33Marked on this map are locations

0:08:33 > 0:08:35where the previous victims fell from the cliffs,

0:08:35 > 0:08:38including Jemma.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40So quite close in proximity.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42Could it be a meeting point, if they were all friends?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Did they often walk there together?

0:08:44 > 0:08:47So that's where my head's at at the moment.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49If they have all been lured to this location,

0:08:49 > 0:08:51is it of grave significance to whoever is killing them?

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Personally, I think we're dealing with a psychopath right here.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Honestly, I think we're actually dealing

0:08:56 > 0:08:57with a full-blown psychopath.

0:08:57 > 0:09:03Straight in! OK, well, it's time now for round two, last movements.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04We'll see what happened in

0:09:04 > 0:09:08the fateful final moments before Jemma Hall's death.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Notepads at the ready.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14Let's head back to the Bay Cliffs, Mortcliff.

0:09:23 > 0:09:24You're always on that phone.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Can't you take your eyes off it for a second?

0:09:26 > 0:09:27Don't be so miserable.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29It's just photos.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Can't you just enjoy a nice sea walk?

0:09:32 > 0:09:34I can think of better things to be doing.

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Come here.

0:09:40 > 0:09:41Smile!

0:09:45 > 0:09:48That's lovely.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49PHONE BUZZES

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Who's that?

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Nothing, just work.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59I need the toilet. Be right back.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01OK, well, don't be long.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Fiona'll be here soon.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20SCREAMING

0:10:22 > 0:10:23- ALL:- Oooh!

0:10:25 > 0:10:29Well! Oh, well, well!

0:10:29 > 0:10:32So first of all, I'd love to see that picture that she took.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35The selfie of the two of them,

0:10:35 > 0:10:38cos maybe it could show somebody in the background.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Secondly, he's a bit jealous.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44He's not liking her being on her phone, but then

0:10:44 > 0:10:46he got a message and wouldn't reveal to her who it was.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48I'd like to see what that message was, as well.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52People put things into their phone that they won't tell their barman or

0:10:52 > 0:10:53their priest, so I think phones

0:10:53 > 0:10:55will give you the insight to somebody's life.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56Without fail.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Yeah.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01Well, let's take another look at the suspects board.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04We have Dale Coleman,

0:11:04 > 0:11:06and Hamish McBride.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09I'm quite sceptical of Dale,

0:11:09 > 0:11:11from him saying that he was behind

0:11:11 > 0:11:15the bush and he heard somebody running off.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Now, when the detectives were up there, it was quite noisy,

0:11:18 > 0:11:20quite windy and some distance,

0:11:20 > 0:11:23so I'd find it difficult to believe he heard somebody running.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25OK, let's crack on.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27You can have an evidence pick now

0:11:27 > 0:11:30and it's one from the following list.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32You need to decide amongst

0:11:32 > 0:11:34yourselves as a group which one you're going for.

0:11:34 > 0:11:38We have the data from Hamish's health tracker app,

0:11:38 > 0:11:43or a letter to the victim and finally,

0:11:43 > 0:11:47the last selfie of the couple before Jemma's death.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50I know, I know, I know.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53The last photo we've always thought, "Ooh, that looks a bit fun,"

0:11:53 > 0:11:55but this letter is something we know nothing about.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59I'm heading towards the letter at this moment in time.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01I'm heading towards the letter as well.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03- OK, the letter, I think. - The letter. Thank you.

0:12:03 > 0:12:04- You want to see the letter? - Please.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08So we can reveal the letter sent to the victim claiming to know them,

0:12:08 > 0:12:10so it says, "Hi, Jemma.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13"I've just discovered your address through Ruth Potter.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16"I'm Fiona Williams. Remember me?

0:12:16 > 0:12:18"It's been ages since we were at school together.

0:12:18 > 0:12:22"How are you? I walk the dogs every Thursday from 10am at Bay Cliffs.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24"Fancy meeting next week?"

0:12:24 > 0:12:27Who's Ruth and why are you giving out people's addresses?

0:12:27 > 0:12:30You know, it's 2017. You've got Facebook and everything else.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32- Yeah.- I'm sure they could get in contact by other ways.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34- Yeah.- Don't believe it.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36I mean, if they were living in the same town,

0:12:36 > 0:12:39you know, surely they, you know, see each other.

0:12:39 > 0:12:40As it's quite a small town.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42You know, it's,

0:12:42 > 0:12:45"Come down to the murder cliffs so I can totally not murder you."

0:12:45 > 0:12:47It's... Yeah, wildly, wildly suspicious.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49Well, Armchair Detectives,

0:12:49 > 0:12:51it's prime suspect time.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54Write down the name now of who you think the prime suspect is.

0:13:08 > 0:13:09OK, time is up.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12Notepads away, please, Armchair Detectives.

0:13:12 > 0:13:13- Simon.- Hamish.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16Hamish, why?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I think there's a past life he's trying to get away from,

0:13:19 > 0:13:21maybe he's going back to his old deeds again.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24Maybe. Bola, who do you think?

0:13:24 > 0:13:25I've gone for Dale.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28At the moment, based on the evidence I've got,

0:13:28 > 0:13:30he's my prime suspect.

0:13:30 > 0:13:31- Yeah.- And Charley?

0:13:31 > 0:13:34I bring in the boyfriend on basic principle at this stage.

0:13:34 > 0:13:35- Yes.- He's there. He is convenient.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Let's find out what he knows.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40OK, well, now, it's on to round three,

0:13:40 > 0:13:42which is the Police Interviews.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46Knight and Slater widen their search for who the suspects might be.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Notepads at the ready.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50It's off to Mortcliff Police Station.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03You no longer live in Mortcliff.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05After we got married,

0:14:05 > 0:14:07we had some trouble from a neighbour so we moved.

0:14:07 > 0:14:08What was the issue with your neighbour?

0:14:08 > 0:14:11Our neighbour was anti-gay.

0:14:11 > 0:14:12Yes, I notice...

0:14:13 > 0:14:16..you reported a couple of incidents.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Can you tell us about the Brendan Wilson trial?

0:14:18 > 0:14:19I'll say this.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22I didn't like Brendan Wilson.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24He was angry, abusive and homophobic.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28But I don't know if he did it.

0:14:28 > 0:14:29Why's that?

0:14:29 > 0:14:32I didn't think the evidence was strong enough to convict him.

0:14:32 > 0:14:37I didn't want to send the chap down if I wasn't sure.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40Did you know Jemma Hall before the trial?

0:14:40 > 0:14:43I didn't really get to know her during it either, why would I?

0:14:43 > 0:14:46And subsequent to the trial?

0:14:46 > 0:14:47No.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51Did you know that her parents were your homophobic neighbours?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Mr Hall, her father, was quite vitriolic

0:14:54 > 0:14:57towards both you and your partner.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00That can't have been very pleasant.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02It is a bit of a coincidence that you were right there.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Did you know Jemma's parents were your neighbours?

0:15:08 > 0:15:09Yes, I did.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17Well, my gut instinct told me he was 100% guilty.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19I always listen to my gut.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Never trust a person who cannot make up their own mind.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26There was a huge difference in opinion.

0:15:26 > 0:15:27Well, half of us said he was guilty

0:15:27 > 0:15:30and the other half believed he was innocent.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32But you're not allowed to reveal the details

0:15:32 > 0:15:34of confidential juror discussions.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38We spoke about it all over the place.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Not only during deliberations. Well,

0:15:40 > 0:15:44there was a fair bit of lobbying from both sides, if I'm honest.

0:15:44 > 0:15:48Too much chitchat and not enough action.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51But in the end, we only deliberated for a day.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Well, so not that long, then.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56The facts spoke for themselves.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58I was never in any doubt.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00The only issue was -

0:16:00 > 0:16:03and this didn't speak to Brendan's guilt or his innocence -

0:16:03 > 0:16:05but I maintain his brother James

0:16:05 > 0:16:07played a bigger role than he said he did.

0:16:08 > 0:16:09What was Brendan like?

0:16:10 > 0:16:13Brendan didn't strike me as a very nice man, either.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16It's no loss he died in prison.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18That will save the taxpayer a few coppers!

0:16:18 > 0:16:19How do you know he's dead?

0:16:22 > 0:16:28I remember hearing about it on the news about a year ago.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Yeah, I remember reading about it and watching it on the news.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Miss Donaldson, could you tell us about the trial of Brendan Wilson?

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Brendan was convicted on flimsy evidence given by his brother.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45I can tell you right now it was James

0:16:45 > 0:16:47who masterminded the whole thing.

0:16:50 > 0:16:51D'you know the Bay Cliff area?

0:16:53 > 0:16:56I've been receiving some letters from Fiona Williams.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59The last letter was last week to meet her at Bay Cliff.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02But I haven't been able to go because...

0:17:02 > 0:17:05Well, because I've been having chemotherapy recently and...

0:17:05 > 0:17:08..my energy isn't good at the best of times.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11I'm sorry to hear that.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14Yeah. I was diagnosed with leukaemia recently.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18I'm just taking it day by day.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Who is Fiona Williams?

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Ah, this is fantastic.

0:17:27 > 0:17:31We actually have a murderer who is posing as another person.

0:17:31 > 0:17:35Two letters in just a short period of time from Fiona,

0:17:35 > 0:17:38saying meet at this one place.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40It's brilliant, it's absolutely brilliant.

0:17:42 > 0:17:43Charley.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Well, I want to know a lot more about our last young lady

0:17:46 > 0:17:48who was Margaret Donaldson, because...

0:17:49 > 0:17:53..frankly, the chemotherapy is a very nice kind of cover.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Everyone's volunteering a lot of information to the police,

0:17:55 > 0:17:57- aren't they?- So very convenient. - Yeah.- Yeah.

0:17:57 > 0:17:58So we have more suspects to add.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00We now have Dale Coleman,

0:18:00 > 0:18:01Hamish McBride,

0:18:01 > 0:18:03we also have Donna Atkins,

0:18:03 > 0:18:05who was a jury member,

0:18:05 > 0:18:06Margaret Donaldson,

0:18:06 > 0:18:08who was a jury member

0:18:08 > 0:18:13and James Wilson who we've not met yet but who has been referred to.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16There's something not right about Donna.

0:18:16 > 0:18:17She's a very...

0:18:17 > 0:18:21Seems like a very vicious kind of woman.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25When she said there was a lot of talking but not enough action.

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- Yes.- She looked really serious,

0:18:27 > 0:18:29as if to say, action needed to be taken.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33Donna doesn't have the motive to enact revenge upon the jury,

0:18:33 > 0:18:34because she got what she wanted.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37I think it's got something to do with the opposing sides here.

0:18:37 > 0:18:40Probably need to jot down who's on which side here

0:18:40 > 0:18:42to maybe work it out a little bit.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45- Yeah.- Yeah, that's where I'm at.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48Well, once again you can pick a piece of evidence

0:18:48 > 0:18:51and we've added a new one to the list.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55So you can have the data from Hamish's health tracker app,

0:18:55 > 0:18:57or the last selfie of the couple

0:18:57 > 0:19:02before Jemma's death, and the new piece of evidence is letters sent to

0:19:02 > 0:19:05Margaret Donaldson.

0:19:05 > 0:19:10If we have the letter and there is a match, but...

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Then again, there might be something in the last picture.

0:19:12 > 0:19:16I've a feeling we can collect dozens of letters in the same handwriting

0:19:16 > 0:19:18all from Fiona Williams to each juror,

0:19:18 > 0:19:20unless it was a different handwriting,

0:19:20 > 0:19:22it wouldn't move us any further forward.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26I'm edging towards the photo.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30I want to see if any of the suspects, cos it's widened out,

0:19:30 > 0:19:32are in that photo.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34- Absolutely.- That's what I want to go for.- Yeah.

0:19:34 > 0:19:35Well spoken there, I think.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37So you've chosen the last photo of the couple.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41It's a selfie by Jemma of herself and her boyfriend Dale.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43The photo was taken on the Bay Cliffs

0:19:43 > 0:19:48and uploaded onto Jemma's social media shortly before her death.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52Back left, bald head.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54It's a bit of orange or it's a bald head.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57We don't know whether James Wilson has hair or not.

0:19:57 > 0:19:58- Right.- We don't...

0:19:58 > 0:20:01We've got Hamish McBride, is bald.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04Whatever, though, we have a few hiding places.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05- Yeah.- We have about five.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08You could put a platoon in there, for heaven's sake.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12It's time to write down your prime suspect again.

0:20:12 > 0:20:17The suspects are Dale, Hamish, Donna, Margaret, and James.

0:20:32 > 0:20:33Time's up. Notepads away.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Armchair Detectives, please.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39Simon, last time you picked Hamish.

0:20:39 > 0:20:40Have you changed your mind?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42No, I'm sticking with him.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Good. Bola?

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Last time, you went for Dale.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Yeah.- Have you changed your mind? - Possibly a crime of passion so,

0:20:49 > 0:20:51yeah, I'm sticking with Dale.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54OK, and Charley, last time you went for Dale.

0:20:54 > 0:20:55Indeed I did.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58- Have you changed your mind? - I have gone for Margaret.

0:20:59 > 0:21:04- Why?- We have the little bald head in the last photograph round the back.

0:21:04 > 0:21:05Hamish is a nice obvious bald guy

0:21:05 > 0:21:07and she's in the middle of chemotherapy

0:21:07 > 0:21:09which no-one's going to think of,

0:21:09 > 0:21:12so I feel like a bit of a monster for suggesting it, but...

0:21:13 > 0:21:17OK, it's time for round four, Dig Deeper.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20Let's head to Mortcliff Courthouse

0:21:20 > 0:21:23three years earlier to find out more.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40I know which way I'm going to vote.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42It's very clear who's at fault here.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Did you see him wink at me during the closing?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46I'm sure he was flirting with me.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49He actually pointed to his ring finger, as well!

0:21:49 > 0:21:52I'm just glad the postcard sent to Brendan didn't cause a mistrial.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55That would have been a waste of our time.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57I wonder who sent it.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01Right. As foreman of the jury,

0:22:01 > 0:22:03it is my duty to guide our deliberations today.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08He allegedly defrauded 30 people,

0:22:08 > 0:22:13mostly pensioners, of over £800,000 by getting them to invest in him and

0:22:13 > 0:22:15his brother's business.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19The company was in James Wilson's name.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Why is Brendan Wilson the primary perpetrator

0:22:21 > 0:22:24when it was his brother's company?

0:22:24 > 0:22:25It makes no sense.

0:22:25 > 0:22:27Brendan clearly pressurised the vulnerable

0:22:27 > 0:22:29into parting with their money.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32Yes, but so did his brother at his own admission.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Brendan set up all the relationships.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37He did all the persuading and then the paperwork.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41According to his brother, who is clearly untrustworthy.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43My gut instinct tells me that Brendan...

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Yeah, can we focus on the evidence, please?

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Right, where'd you think the money went?

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Only 100,000 went to the banks.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54Look, I just keep thinking, you know, in a few years' time,

0:22:54 > 0:22:57that could be me. Like, I would look at a man like Brendan

0:22:57 > 0:22:59and I would trust him if he gave me

0:22:59 > 0:23:01a card with a financial adviser credentials.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03So much for gut instincts.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Nope, but that's an important fact, though.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08It goes to perceptions and how easily people can be deluded.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10Who are you calling deluded?

0:23:10 > 0:23:12I just don't think the testimony

0:23:12 > 0:23:15of one man is enough evidence

0:23:15 > 0:23:17on which to convict a person.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22So, firstly, please raise your hands for not guilty.

0:23:25 > 0:23:31Right. Margaret, two, three, OK, that's three for not guilty.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33And now, not proven.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37OK, Hamish, two, three, four.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40Four for not proven.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42And now for guilty?

0:23:44 > 0:23:46Right. That's

0:23:46 > 0:23:48one, two, three, four.

0:23:48 > 0:23:52Jemma, Donna, Liam, David, Leanne.

0:23:52 > 0:23:54Thank you.

0:23:54 > 0:23:59So that is seven to acquit, including the not proven.

0:23:59 > 0:24:03And eight to convict.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05Ladies and gentlemen, we have a verdict.

0:24:14 > 0:24:15Brendan was a kind man.

0:24:17 > 0:24:18Some may say a ladies' man.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23He loved nothing more than walking on the Mortcliff Bay cliffs.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28He first proposed on them when he was 16.

0:24:30 > 0:24:31He soon came to his senses,

0:24:31 > 0:24:34left those silly notions behind.

0:24:36 > 0:24:38He dropped out of Mortcliff School...

0:24:39 > 0:24:41..but by the time he was 20,

0:24:41 > 0:24:43he was a successful businessman.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Yes, he lived life in the fast lane.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51Maybe he took it too far.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53But he paid his dues.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00Next week would have been his 40th birthday.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05A fantastic character, gone too soon.

0:25:08 > 0:25:09Thank you for coming.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13That was a lovely eulogy.

0:25:13 > 0:25:18- Thank you.- Thank you. And you are...?- I'm Margaret Donaldson.

0:25:18 > 0:25:19You may not remember me, but...

0:25:19 > 0:25:22Give me a minute, Thank you.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Thank you for helping with the service today.

0:25:24 > 0:25:29I know you volunteer here but even so, this must have been awkward.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31- What do you mean?- Well,

0:25:31 > 0:25:35I recognise you from the jury at my brother's trial.

0:25:35 > 0:25:38One of the ones that sent him down, were you?

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Live and let live, that's what I always say.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43And like you said, he paid his dues.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46Brendan wasn't guilty of anything and you know it.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49You know it, too. Is that why you came today, out of guilt?

0:25:50 > 0:25:52I came to pay my respects.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Oh, yes. I remember you, too.

0:25:55 > 0:25:58Look, the jury found Brendan guilty.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00Don't blame me for my opinions.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03Self-centred witches, both of you.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Oh, girls.

0:26:08 > 0:26:09Come on.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Brendan would have appreciated this.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Women fighting over his memory!

0:26:20 > 0:26:21What's that?

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Is that...

0:26:24 > 0:26:26..from Brendan's collection?

0:26:26 > 0:26:28You should be ashamed of yourself.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Stealing from a dead fraudster?

0:26:32 > 0:26:34Couldn't have come up with a better plan myself.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Well, heavens!

0:26:47 > 0:26:50Margaret seems to be kind of desperate to be noticed.

0:26:50 > 0:26:55- Yes.- And the fact that she was forgotten by James Wilson,

0:26:55 > 0:26:59who obviously remembered both the other women in the jury,

0:26:59 > 0:27:02so she's wanting to be noticed, wanting to be remembered.

0:27:02 > 0:27:07I think Margaret's starting to stand up for me, because she's not as...

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Nice as what she tried to make out.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14I think she can... She's a girl that can pack a bit of a punch, for sure.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16I'm going back to when she was talking about

0:27:16 > 0:27:18the letters that she's been receiving.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21Possibly think that she's been sending them and I also think

0:27:21 > 0:27:23that Donna could be next.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27Margaret might have been one of the lovely ladies

0:27:27 > 0:27:29taken by Brendan at some point in time.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32He actually showed her proper attention.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36There was a relationship and then, of course, Brendan ended up

0:27:36 > 0:27:40getting in prison. Now she is desperate and

0:27:40 > 0:27:43now she knows the people to go after.

0:27:43 > 0:27:46Well, let's take a look at the suspects board and, of course,

0:27:46 > 0:27:51we know now what James Wilson looks like, so we have Dale Coleman,

0:27:51 > 0:27:54Hamish McBride, Donna Atkins,

0:27:54 > 0:27:57Margaret Donaldson and now James Wilson,

0:27:57 > 0:28:00who is Brendan's brother.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02As much as he was sort of paying his respects to his brother,

0:28:02 > 0:28:06I think he was highlighting some of his misdemeanours as well,

0:28:06 > 0:28:07which seemed a bit bizarre.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12So, yeah, he's somewhere in my thoughts.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14Yeah, I'd like to study him a little bit more.

0:28:14 > 0:28:16Now let's pick a piece of evidence.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18Here are your choices.

0:28:18 > 0:28:22The data from Hamish's health app,

0:28:22 > 0:28:25the letters to Margaret Donaldson and a new piece of evidence,

0:28:25 > 0:28:29which is a postcard sent to Brendan in prison.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31- ALL:- Ooh...

0:28:31 > 0:28:34Hamish's app is almost becoming insignificant for me.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36I don't know about you two.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39Letters to Margaret,

0:28:39 > 0:28:43I think that might show up the same handwriting as the letter

0:28:43 > 0:28:46to the victims, so I don't think that's going to show anything.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49For me, I think we need to know who's sending postcards to Brendan.

0:28:49 > 0:28:50Agreed.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53A postcard is a very sentimental document to give to someone.

0:28:53 > 0:28:54- Yeah.- So...

0:28:54 > 0:28:57And if the postcard handwriting matches that

0:28:57 > 0:28:58of the Fiona Williams letters,

0:28:58 > 0:29:01then I think we probably have something interesting there.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04- Absolutely.- Postcards, OK.

0:29:04 > 0:29:07On the front is a photo of the Bay Cliffs

0:29:07 > 0:29:10and a handwritten letter is on the back.

0:29:10 > 0:29:13"On Tuesday, I'll be at the Jury Lane Hotel until six.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15"I don't sleep very well.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17"I do worry I'll be tired.

0:29:17 > 0:29:20"J sends her love.

0:29:20 > 0:29:24"Going to buy flour and marge for your birthday cake!"

0:29:24 > 0:29:26Has to be some sort of code.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29The handwriting is the same as that on the Fiona Williams letters.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31The Is are the same and the As are the same.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34So I'm confident that the same hand has penned them both.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36I'm thinking that it's Margaret.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38The reference to "don't sleep very well",

0:29:38 > 0:29:44and maybe this something to do with her chemotherapy.

0:29:44 > 0:29:48Armchair Detectives, it's time to lock in again.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Who's your prime suspect?

0:29:50 > 0:29:54Dale, Hamish, Donna, Margaret or James?

0:30:09 > 0:30:12Time's up. Notepads away, please, Armchair Detectives.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Now last time, Simon, you went for...

0:30:15 > 0:30:16..Hamish. Have you changed your mind?

0:30:16 > 0:30:18- Indeed.- Who've you gone for?

0:30:18 > 0:30:21- Margaret.- Margaret.

0:30:21 > 0:30:23I have a feeling that Brendan

0:30:23 > 0:30:26actually made time for lovely Margaret here,

0:30:26 > 0:30:28probably the first time in her life, maybe.

0:30:28 > 0:30:32And now she wants revenge against the people...

0:30:33 > 0:30:34..who took him away from her.

0:30:34 > 0:30:35You think it's revenge?

0:30:35 > 0:30:37Yes. Oh, yes. Oh, this is an emotional...

0:30:37 > 0:30:39There's... No financial one.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41This is strictly matters of the heart here.

0:30:41 > 0:30:45Bola, last time you went for Dale.

0:30:45 > 0:30:46Who've you gone for this time?

0:30:46 > 0:30:48- I've switched.- Have you?

0:30:48 > 0:30:50- Yeah.- To who?- Margaret.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52- Margaret as well.- Margaret did it.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Do you agree with Simon's analysis?

0:30:54 > 0:30:57Yeah, absolutely and I think just

0:30:57 > 0:30:59from the postcard that we saw the same handwriting.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Also, didn't think I would agree with this,

0:31:02 > 0:31:05but the bald head,

0:31:05 > 0:31:08possibly, she's wearing wigs and it could have blown off in the wind.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10- OK.- Just saying.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Charley, last time, you went for...

0:31:12 > 0:31:14- Margaret.- Changed your mind?

0:31:14 > 0:31:15Not in the slightest.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18Oh, so all three of them have gone for Margaret.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20Why have you gone for Margaret?

0:31:20 > 0:31:23All the way through, she's been overlooked by everybody,

0:31:23 > 0:31:25ignored in the jury room, not recognised

0:31:25 > 0:31:26by the brother of the deceased.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29She's got eight to kill.

0:31:29 > 0:31:30Six are already done.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32She's got two left and Donna -

0:31:32 > 0:31:34who I think she's probably saving for last,

0:31:34 > 0:31:35due to her kind of basic unpleasantness -

0:31:35 > 0:31:39is going to be an element of her piece de resistance in the cliffs.

0:31:39 > 0:31:40Right.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44Now it's time for round five, Armchair Detectives.

0:31:44 > 0:31:46It's the Final Clues.

0:31:46 > 0:31:49The murder happened at the cliff edge

0:31:49 > 0:31:52but will we solve this cliffhanger?

0:31:52 > 0:31:54Let's take a look.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05Dale, Jemma's boyfriend, was unfaithful to her.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08Two of his work colleagues told me

0:32:08 > 0:32:11he has quite a reputation for one night stands.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13And she could have found that out

0:32:13 > 0:32:15and confronted him about it at the cliffs.

0:32:15 > 0:32:19However, DNA samples do confirm that he did urinate behind the bush,

0:32:19 > 0:32:20like he said he did.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23Yeah, let's not rule Dale out too soon,

0:32:23 > 0:32:24that's all I'm saying.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26There could be any number of motives for this.

0:32:26 > 0:32:29I have located James Wilson, though.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31He moved to Parryvale after the trial,

0:32:31 > 0:32:34in case one of the victims wanted to get revenge on him.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37OK. That's something, at least.

0:32:38 > 0:32:40Let's pay Mr Wilson a visit.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43PHONE RINGS

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Hello.

0:32:46 > 0:32:47Ah! Miss Atkins.

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Yes. Yes,

0:32:51 > 0:32:53I just have to tell you that I'm going to put you on speakerphone,

0:32:53 > 0:32:56so that my colleague, DC Slater, can hear this.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58Hello? Hello?

0:32:58 > 0:33:01Yeah. Go ahead, we can hear you.

0:33:01 > 0:33:03I've just received a letter in today's post from

0:33:03 > 0:33:05someone claiming to be an old school friend

0:33:05 > 0:33:07and to meet her at the Bay Cliffs.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Do you recognise the name?

0:33:09 > 0:33:11She called herself Fiona Williams.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13She said she got my name through Amber Morton,

0:33:13 > 0:33:15whom I know died last year.

0:33:15 > 0:33:18I don't remember anybody by that name.

0:33:18 > 0:33:23Well, please don't respond and whatever you do,

0:33:23 > 0:33:25don't go near the Bay Cliffs.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27We'll send a colleague round to examine that letter.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31I'm not proud of myself.

0:33:32 > 0:33:34When I thought we were going to be unmasked,

0:33:34 > 0:33:38I contacted the police and we made the deal so that I could testify

0:33:38 > 0:33:41without being convicted myself.

0:33:41 > 0:33:42What did your brother make of that?

0:33:42 > 0:33:45I told him as soon as I'd done it.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48He knew I wouldn't survive in prison,

0:33:48 > 0:33:51so whilst he wasn't happy with the situation,

0:33:51 > 0:33:54we both knew it was the right thing to do.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56What made you think you were so special

0:33:56 > 0:33:59you couldn't serve time in prison?

0:33:59 > 0:34:01I'm sensitive.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07Some say he laid down his life for you.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11I'll forever be in his debt.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13Have you found anything interesting

0:34:13 > 0:34:16or unusual among your brother's possessions?

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Nothing.

0:34:18 > 0:34:20Hardly anyone came to his funeral.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25Although there were those women that were fighting over him.

0:34:26 > 0:34:29He was always a dark horse when it came to women.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32He couldn't resist them, you know?

0:34:32 > 0:34:36You'd be surprised how easy it is to pick up women when you're inside.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41He had a secret admirer on the outside.

0:34:41 > 0:34:42He got loads of letters.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46It just goes to show,

0:34:46 > 0:34:49even if he was locked up, he still had it.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55Indeed. What do you think?

0:34:55 > 0:34:57They're very, very desperate.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00Right now, if I knew that the police had the evidence,

0:35:00 > 0:35:03I'd kind of stop but, no, this one, this killer's,

0:35:03 > 0:35:05he or she is very desperate.

0:35:05 > 0:35:09Very desperate. Well, it's time to pick your final piece of evidence.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12You have just two pieces left to choose from.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15Which one do you fancy?

0:35:15 > 0:35:16Hamish's app...

0:35:17 > 0:35:19..or letters to Margaret?

0:35:19 > 0:35:20Hamish's app.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22If he was going to offer that up,

0:35:22 > 0:35:26he would make sure that it showed exactly what they wanted to see.

0:35:26 > 0:35:28I think we've only one option.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30The letters to Margaret.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32- Letters?- I think the app.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34- I trust tech.- Oh, thanks, guys.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37- It's just up to me now, isn't it? - Simon, you've got the casting vote.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39Oh, no! OK.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Do you know what? Let's...

0:35:41 > 0:35:43Let's go for the app!

0:35:43 > 0:35:46- Let's go for the app.- OK, you've chosen to see Hamish's app.

0:35:47 > 0:35:50We can see Hamish was at the cliffs during the murder,

0:35:50 > 0:35:52so you can see there, driving between 9am and 9.20am,

0:35:52 > 0:35:55walking between 9.25am and 10am.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58Stationary between 10am and 10.30am.

0:35:58 > 0:35:59Walking, 10.30am - 11am.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02Stationary 11-11.30am.

0:36:02 > 0:36:03He's left his phone somewhere.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05I think it proves that he didn't do it.

0:36:05 > 0:36:07If the thing is stationary,

0:36:07 > 0:36:09then that means it cannot move and

0:36:09 > 0:36:13why would he stay around for half an hour?

0:36:13 > 0:36:14Why just stay there?

0:36:14 > 0:36:16It doesn't prove anything.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20It's Accusation Time.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24As you know, whoever guesses correctly will win this,

0:36:24 > 0:36:26the magnificent golden magnifying glass.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30I want you to write down who you're accusing.

0:36:30 > 0:36:33It's time to answer the only question that matters.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35Whodunnit?

0:36:49 > 0:36:53Time is up. Notepads away, Armchair Detectives.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Simon, who are you accusing?

0:36:57 > 0:36:59- Margaret.- Why?

0:36:59 > 0:37:04Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and literally,

0:37:04 > 0:37:07this is a woman who has been overlooked nearly all of her life.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09The first piece of comfort -

0:37:09 > 0:37:12snaps it right up and it was taken away from her

0:37:12 > 0:37:15just as easily - revenge.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Bola.- I just changed my mind.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21OK. Who are you accusing?

0:37:21 > 0:37:24- Hamish.- Hamish!

0:37:24 > 0:37:27I think that piece of evidence that we went for,

0:37:27 > 0:37:30that I definitely didn't want to go for, threw me.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32- The tracker.- Yes.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35Charley. I am sticking with Margaret as I have done all the way through.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37There's an entire borough in London

0:37:37 > 0:37:39that are going to be laughing at me if I get this wrong.

0:37:40 > 0:37:44Let's just see what the final piece of evidence was and whether it would

0:37:44 > 0:37:46have changed your minds.

0:37:46 > 0:37:50These letters were provided to the police by Margaret Donaldson.

0:37:50 > 0:37:51They are handwritten letters

0:37:51 > 0:37:54and have been sent to Margaret from

0:37:54 > 0:37:58Fiona Williams, which mirror the letters sent to the other victims.

0:37:58 > 0:38:03Almost identical in what they say, Fiona Williams -

0:38:03 > 0:38:05"I walk the dogs every Tuesday from 10am at Bay Cliffs",

0:38:05 > 0:38:08but there are several letters there.

0:38:08 > 0:38:09Yeah, she did it.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Well, we don't quite know that yet, Bola.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16Let's find out!

0:38:16 > 0:38:21So what really happened in today's story, The Jury's Out?

0:38:21 > 0:38:22Who killed Jemma Hall?

0:38:22 > 0:38:26Let's find out whodunnit.

0:38:35 > 0:38:40You know, I think we can rule out Dale Coleman and James Wilson.

0:38:40 > 0:38:44James is clearly reformed and even though Dale wasn't,

0:38:44 > 0:38:46I just can't imagine he has the stomach for murder.

0:38:46 > 0:38:50Yeah, well, Hamish's location tracker checks out.

0:38:50 > 0:38:54We have a witness confirming he was talking to him near the scene.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Margaret Donaldson.

0:38:58 > 0:38:59She is an odd one.

0:38:59 > 0:39:01Yeah.

0:39:01 > 0:39:05The letters Brendan received in prison make for interesting reading.

0:39:09 > 0:39:13I'm sorry to call you in at such short notice.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15How is the chemotherapy going?

0:39:15 > 0:39:17It's all right.

0:39:17 > 0:39:18I suppose.

0:39:21 > 0:39:25Young love is a powerful thing, isn't it, Slater?

0:39:25 > 0:39:27Yes, sir.

0:39:27 > 0:39:32I have a theory that young love is the most potent expression of life.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36Do you like Romeo and Juliet?

0:39:37 > 0:39:39It's my favourite play.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43That's a nice engagement ring, Margaret.

0:39:44 > 0:39:45Who's the lucky man?

0:39:45 > 0:39:47Who WAS the lucky man,

0:39:47 > 0:39:49I think you meant to ask, Slater.

0:39:51 > 0:39:56My guess is, the lucky man was Brendan Wilson.

0:39:59 > 0:40:00When you were very young,

0:40:00 > 0:40:05he gave you that ring and asked you to marry him on the Bay Cliffs.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10And years later, when you were called to jury service,

0:40:10 > 0:40:12and recognised him...

0:40:13 > 0:40:16..I wonder what your initial reaction was.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20See, I think Brendan was a manipulator

0:40:20 > 0:40:21who took advantage of you.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24We both felt the same way about one another.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28You didn't disclose that you knew the defendant.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32You also did your best to sway the jury.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35However, the evidence was enough to convict Brendan.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39We looked at letters Brendan received in prison.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44These letters in particular were sent during

0:40:44 > 0:40:47the time he was having his trial.

0:40:47 > 0:40:50In them, you say you were on the jury.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53The handwriting is similar to those sent to all the victims.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59You wrote to Brendan in prison.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Brendan promised that when he got out,

0:41:01 > 0:41:03he would divorce his wife and marry you.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07Sadly, he died.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10In your mind, the members who gave Brendan a guilty verdict

0:41:10 > 0:41:13were the ones to blame.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16So you sent them letters inviting them onto the cliff

0:41:16 > 0:41:18and you pushed them over the edge.

0:41:18 > 0:41:22I also received letters so it couldn't have been me.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25You received four letters.

0:41:26 > 0:41:28All the other victims only received one.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31We also examined a photograph

0:41:31 > 0:41:34taken by Jemma before she was pushed.

0:41:34 > 0:41:37We can clearly see a bald-headed person in the background.

0:41:40 > 0:41:42It's not fair.

0:41:43 > 0:41:46We were destined to be together.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50All these people,

0:41:50 > 0:41:55living their perfect happy lives while all I do is try to stay alive.

0:41:58 > 0:42:01Margaret Donaldson, I'm arresting you for the murder of Jemma Hall...

0:42:03 > 0:42:08..and for suspicion of the murders of David Parkin, Liam Clarke,

0:42:08 > 0:42:09Lewis Murphy

0:42:09 > 0:42:11and Liana Scofield.

0:42:17 > 0:42:22Well, Bola, you knew it was her all along.

0:42:22 > 0:42:23So annoying.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25Can I just say, you worked incredibly well as a team there.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Brilliantly done.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30It just shows you what evidence you pick can change your minds.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33You will get another go, though, Bola, so don't worry.

0:42:33 > 0:42:35Congratulations, Simon and Charley,

0:42:35 > 0:42:38you both picked the killer and have won a golden magnifying glass.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40Well done!

0:42:41 > 0:42:44Armchair Detectives, did any of you pick the right killer?

0:42:44 > 0:42:46- Yes.- Oh, quite a lot.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49They're always very confident when they're sitting over there.
