0:01:24 > 0:01:27Gregor. Toria won yesterday.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Do you think you're going to win today?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32I'm not sure if I'll win, but I will get a trophy.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33OK, OK.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Krystyna, who is your favourite fictional detective?

0:01:37 > 0:01:41I'm half-Italian, so I like Inspector Montalbano.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Oh, absolutely. Lovely.

0:01:43 > 0:01:44I'm fully-Scottish,

0:01:44 > 0:01:45so I love Taggart.

0:01:48 > 0:01:49James, what's your job?

0:01:49 > 0:01:51I'm a detective.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56So do you think that's going to help you today, James?

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Well, I'd like to hope so.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Because I'm not just playing for a little trophy.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03I'm also playing to keep my job!

0:02:03 > 0:02:04Armchair Detectives,

0:02:04 > 0:02:07guess today's killer correctly,

0:02:07 > 0:02:09and you'll get to win one of these.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13A golden magnifying glass.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15- ALL:- Ooh!

0:02:15 > 0:02:17It's time for round one.

0:02:17 > 0:02:18The Crime Scene.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Knight, Slater and Simmons are in the forest.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25But will they be able to see the wood for the trees?

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Notepads at the ready.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Let's head over to Mortcliff.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41- Afternoon, guv.- Hello.

0:02:41 > 0:02:42SOCO is in the forest,

0:02:42 > 0:02:45about a 15-minute walk away.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47There's no mobile signal out there.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49This is Colin Proust.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51He discovered the body.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Poor Joe.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Mr Proust, DI Knight, DC Slater.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Would you please stay with the officer

0:02:58 > 0:03:00and we'll talk to you shortly.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Sure, I will do.

0:03:02 > 0:03:03Thanks.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12Well, Simmons. These forest sojourns of yours

0:03:12 > 0:03:14are becoming a bit of a habit, aren't they?

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Convening with nature, DI Knight.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16All part of the job.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20This is where the body was found.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Appears to be Joe Jenkins.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25Male, 50s, dressed for the outdoors.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27I never get used to this.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Not all nature smells rosy.

0:03:29 > 0:03:30How do you cope?

0:03:30 > 0:03:32You do get used to it.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37He appears to have died from a broken neck.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Probably from falling into the pit.

0:03:40 > 0:03:41He has no body heat.

0:03:41 > 0:03:45There's no rigor mortis, so he's been out here for a while.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48How long?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Well, his skin is all blotchy and marbled.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54And judging by the look of lividity on the side of his body,

0:03:54 > 0:03:55I'd say...

0:03:55 > 0:03:56..maybe three days?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02So he died on Thursday?

0:04:02 > 0:04:05We'll have a better idea of exactly when, when we get him to the lab.

0:04:07 > 0:04:08Anything else?

0:04:09 > 0:04:12He had a few hairs on his clothing.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14There was

0:04:14 > 0:04:17a pair of binoculars next to him,

0:04:17 > 0:04:18with a broken strap

0:04:18 > 0:04:21and a mobile phone.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23But the battery is flat.

0:04:28 > 0:04:32Colin, is it? You knew the victim?

0:04:32 > 0:04:35Aye... We weren't best friends or anything.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40I only recognised him from his jacket.

0:04:40 > 0:04:41He's a ranger here.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Presumably you live nearby?

0:04:43 > 0:04:47I run the local butcher shop.

0:04:47 > 0:04:52Me and my daughter. We buy deer meat, venison, from Joe.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56Occasionally, I saw him out and about in the forest.

0:04:56 > 0:05:00We exchanged pleasantries, but that was it.

0:05:02 > 0:05:03How did you find the body?

0:05:03 > 0:05:08Well, technically it was Trent here who'd found it.

0:05:08 > 0:05:09We were out on our daily walk,

0:05:09 > 0:05:13when he started yapping like mad and pulling on his lead and...

0:05:15 > 0:05:17It's not like him at all.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Did you or the dog disturb the scene at all?

0:05:19 > 0:05:23No. Trent's always on a lead.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25So as not to scare the deer.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27One of Joe's rules.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29Do you know anything about Joe's work?

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Mainly that he was here as

0:05:33 > 0:05:36a... A sort of...

0:05:36 > 0:05:38..protector, I suppose.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Needed, too...

0:05:40 > 0:05:44Some beautiful species in the woods.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46There's always been a problem with poaching.

0:05:49 > 0:05:54Have you heard of Ralph Moore?

0:05:54 > 0:05:55Should we?

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Yeah. Perhaps.

0:05:59 > 0:06:05Joe was responsible for him going to jail for poaching.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09Apparently, he's back in the area.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16I swear, if Trent the dog isn't one of the suspects in this show,

0:06:16 > 0:06:17I'm going to be disappointed.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19I'm always after the dog did it, totally.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- Always after the dog did it. - Always the dog did it.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24I found it strange there was a rope ladder leading down to the hole.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28The hole didn't seem that deep, where you would need a ladder.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30I thought forensics put it there.

0:06:31 > 0:06:35Don't think the dog actually found the body.

0:06:35 > 0:06:36OK.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39It's got definitely something to do with deer.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41He's the ranger at the woods.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43He's protecting the deer.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46He does sometimes sell it to the butcher shop.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50But I think it has got something to do with the poaching of it, possibly.

0:06:50 > 0:06:52I think he's disturbed something.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Right. Well, today we are

0:06:54 > 0:06:58investigating the death of Joe Jenkins.

0:06:58 > 0:06:59Joe was 50 years old

0:06:59 > 0:07:01and a forest ranger.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04He was licensed to hold and fire

0:07:04 > 0:07:07guns and he had no criminal record.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Joe divorced five years ago.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13The cause of death is a suspected major fall, causing him a

0:07:13 > 0:07:18catastrophic cervical fracture, commonly known as a broken neck.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22It's believed Joe died three days before his body was found.

0:07:22 > 0:07:23Licensed gunman.

0:07:23 > 0:07:26But from what I heard, there wasn't a gun found on scene.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28I think he's the secret poacher.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30You think he's the secret poacher?

0:07:30 > 0:07:33- You've just jumped straight in there?- He's a forest ranger.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36- Yes.- He's got access to the woods, anyway.- Mmm-hmm.

0:07:36 > 0:07:37He's a licensed gunman.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41I think he shoots all the venison and takes it along in his...

0:07:41 > 0:07:44- Gets money that way, down the back door.- OK.

0:07:44 > 0:07:48It's good to sometimes just jump straight in with an accusation against the victim.

0:07:48 > 0:07:49LAUGHTER

0:07:49 > 0:07:53- James?- SOCO Simmons mentioned that there was three hairs found on the

0:07:53 > 0:07:56body as well, so that's interesting.

0:07:56 > 0:07:57Has he been pushed?

0:07:57 > 0:07:59And whose are those hairs?

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Right, let's go over to the suspects' board just now.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04We've got two suspects to look at so far.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08We have Colin Proust, who's the butcher.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11And Ralph Moore, who we've yet to meet.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Gregor, we've not met Ralph yet.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17We haven't, but we have heard from Colin that Ralph was sent to jail

0:08:17 > 0:08:19because of Joe, and he is now out.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23But Colin was very quick to give forth that information.

0:08:23 > 0:08:27So, right now I'd like to know a little more about Colin.

0:08:27 > 0:08:32I agree with Gregor that Colin was very forthwith with that information.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35And it was spoon-fed to us, rather than us digging.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39But I am intrigued about Ralph and I'd like to know a little bit more

0:08:39 > 0:08:41- about Ralph.- Well, let's see if we can help you out.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43Because, of course, during the show,

0:08:43 > 0:08:45you'll get to look at various pieces of evidence.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48And you get a piece of evidence now to interrogate a little bit closer.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Here it is. So, these are the binoculars found at the crime scene.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56And if you look closely at them, the strap on them is...

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- What do you think?- Yeah, I think there's been a struggle and

0:09:00 > 0:09:02either they've been ripped off him, torn off him.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06They've been dented. Yeah, there's been a struggle, probably, has gone on.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Something going on there.- It doesn't look like it joins together.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11There's scuff marks on them.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- On the centre.- They are a bit dirty. - Yeah.- Well-worn...

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Yeah, but the lens at the top on the left-hand side looks a bit wonky.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19- Yeah, it is, it's twisted.- Or is that my eyes?

0:09:19 > 0:09:21No, the lens on the left's twisted.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Yeah. It is. The lens is weird, isn't it?

0:09:23 > 0:09:27OK, well, now it's time for round two, Last Movements.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Let's see what happened when Joe Jenkins visited Mortcliff's premier

0:09:31 > 0:09:33butchers, the Meat And Greet.

0:09:44 > 0:09:45BELL TINKLES

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Hi, Joe. What can I get you?

0:09:47 > 0:09:51Sonya, I'll have 12 of your finest pork sausages, please.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Sure thing, coming right up. How are tricks?

0:09:54 > 0:09:56I would hardly call the protection of a

0:09:56 > 0:10:00myriad of wildlife species - "tricks".

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Of course not. Sorry, I didn't mean to offend.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06Which species is at risk today?

0:10:09 > 0:10:12I have evidence of egg poaching.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Soft-boiled or hard?

0:10:14 > 0:10:17You won't be laughing when our ospreys become extinct.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19Someone's targeting their nests.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23We're looking at a massive decline in the osprey population.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26That's why I need the sausages.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30Cook them up, pack a bag, go into

0:10:30 > 0:10:31the forest, live there...

0:10:32 > 0:10:37..until I track down the thief and bring him or her to justice.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39- Any clues?- Thanks.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42I'm really close.

0:10:43 > 0:10:44A few people in the mix.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50Is Colin working this morning?

0:10:50 > 0:10:53Nope. Dad's working this afternoon.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55- He's walking Trent.- Make sure...

0:10:55 > 0:10:56He's on a lead, yes.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Yes, we do!

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Who sells you your deer?

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Anyone apart from the Hamish Estate?

0:11:06 > 0:11:09Nope. Just you, Joe.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Our herds have been looking a little thin recently.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15I think something might be going on there, too.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18No-one's been in offering us anything untoward.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20We'll let you know if we hear of anything.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24It's possible it's the same people as the egg poachers.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Maybe not. I'm hot on their trail.

0:11:27 > 0:11:31But I'm not in a position to make any accusations yet.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34I'll close this down for good, though.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Arrests will be made.

0:11:38 > 0:11:39I'll put those on your account.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Dad?

0:11:51 > 0:11:52Joe Jenkins has been in.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55Oh, he makes me sick. He said...

0:11:55 > 0:11:56DOOR OPENS

0:11:56 > 0:11:57I've got to go.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Hi, Lance.- Sonya, hello.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03A pound of minced lamb or 500g?

0:12:03 > 0:12:07Whichever you can sell me under whatever EU regulation.

0:12:07 > 0:12:08SHE TITTERS

0:12:08 > 0:12:11That and the trophy that you've been keeping safe for me.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15Here's four monkeys for you.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17Shall I give you a hand with the ladder?

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Joe Jenkins has been in.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Thinks he has evidence of poaching.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24- Did he say who?- No.

0:12:24 > 0:12:25But he said he was close.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Nah. He's an idiot.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Here, let me give you a hand.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40- You OK?- Yeah.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53What's going on?!

0:12:54 > 0:12:56I'm surprised the people in Mortcliff can see properly, given

0:12:56 > 0:12:58all the sideways glances!

0:12:59 > 0:13:01I'm sticking to the theory.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05- Yes.- I think it's definitely that the guy was poaching.

0:13:05 > 0:13:06Joe's the poacher?

0:13:06 > 0:13:10- See, I don't think Joe's the poacher.- No.- You don't think so? Oh. - I'm not getting that...

0:13:10 > 0:13:13- Joe seems very proud of what he does.- He does.- True.- But Lance,

0:13:13 > 0:13:16I get the feeling he's really not a big fan of Joe.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I'm thinking that Joe Jenkins,

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- he's probably ruffled a few people up the wrong way.- Uh-huh.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25So, there's, a few people might have a motive.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Yeah. Well, we've got some more information and we've got two new

0:13:29 > 0:13:31suspects on our board.

0:13:31 > 0:13:35We have Sonya Proust, who's Colin's daughter.

0:13:36 > 0:13:40And Lance Grafton, wildlife enthusiast.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43We've still not met Ralph Moore.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46What are you thinking about them?

0:13:46 > 0:13:49- Sonya, I get the feeling she's just Daddy's daughter, but...- Oh, do you?

0:13:49 > 0:13:54See, I don't! I feel like she's orchestrating a little bit, because

0:13:54 > 0:13:57she's phoning her dad to tell him, she's telling Lance,

0:13:57 > 0:13:58she's helping him get the deer down.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00She's taking the money off him.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- Four monkeys - is a monkey 500, am I right?- Yes, that's correct.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Yeah, I thought monkey was 500.

0:14:05 > 0:14:06So, two grand, she's getting.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08- It's quite a lot of money, isn't it? - Yeah.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10Well, Armchair Detectives,

0:14:10 > 0:14:12you now get to pick your evidence.

0:14:12 > 0:14:17From these three choices, which one do you fancy?

0:14:17 > 0:14:21We've got the forensics report on the rope ladder used at the pit,

0:14:21 > 0:14:24or a deer trading licence.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27And finally, the forensics report on

0:14:27 > 0:14:31the hair samples found on the victim's clothes.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35So, decide amongst yourselves, what would you like to see?

0:14:35 > 0:14:38I really want to know the,

0:14:38 > 0:14:40the hair samples,

0:14:40 > 0:14:44but I'm going to be annoyed as anything if it turns out it's Trent.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46- I have a formula.- Mmm-hmm.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48It's K = FMC.

0:14:48 > 0:14:52Killer equals forensics, motive, connection.

0:14:52 > 0:14:53Right.

0:14:53 > 0:14:54So what do you think I'm going to go for?

0:14:54 > 0:14:57- I don't know.- Forensics.- Forensics? - All the time!

0:14:57 > 0:14:59- Every time.- So you want to go for forensics.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01What do you think, Gregor and James?

0:15:01 > 0:15:05I really want to go for the forensic rope ladder report.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07The rope ladder forensic report.

0:15:07 > 0:15:08Rope ladder forensic report.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12- Rope ladder?- Yes?- Yeah.- I'm with forensics. Any one of them will do. - Any forensic will do.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14THEY LAUGH

0:15:14 > 0:15:15The forensic rope ladder report.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19So, you've chosen to see the forensics on the rope ladder.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23This was the ladder used in the hide that Joe was found in.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25There is DNA on the rope, that belongs to

0:15:25 > 0:15:29Lance Grafton and Ralph Moore.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Was that worth looking at, James?

0:15:32 > 0:15:33It was, because it's not...

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Told you forensics is important!

0:15:36 > 0:15:37THEY LAUGH

0:15:37 > 0:15:40It's not Colin - who found him -

0:15:40 > 0:15:44so it's the one that's been released from prison,

0:15:44 > 0:15:46who's Ralph Moore.

0:15:46 > 0:15:50And then it's the one that gave the four monkeys to Sonya.

0:15:50 > 0:15:54- Gregor?- Can I ask what the ditch is called again? It's a hide?

0:15:54 > 0:15:59- The hide.- The hide. So it could be Joe stumbled upon it and got killed because he

0:15:59 > 0:16:04found it, or he knew about it, it's just a coincidence that Lance and Ralph's there.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07But Ralph's DNA on it is interesting, but it depends if it's old or new.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10There is a lot of questions going around in my head right now, so...

0:16:10 > 0:16:14OK, it's time to lock in your prime suspect.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17Colin Proust, Ralph Moore,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20Sonya Proust, or Lance Grafton.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25It's not the dug.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29Gregor, who's your prime suspect and why?

0:16:29 > 0:16:31I've chosen Lance.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33He could have known about Joe going

0:16:33 > 0:16:36into the woods to look for a

0:16:36 > 0:16:38possible poacher, because he entered the butcher's right

0:16:38 > 0:16:40after and could have spoken to Sonya.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42His DNA was found on the rope ladder

0:16:42 > 0:16:44that, in the pit that Joe was found,

0:16:44 > 0:16:46so right now there's more pointing

0:16:46 > 0:16:49towards him than anything else, I think.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54Krystyna, who have you accused as the prime suspect and why?

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Well, I'm sticking with Colin.

0:16:56 > 0:17:01I think him and his daughter are running some sort of illegal scam on poaching.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04OK. James, who's your prime suspect and why?

0:17:04 > 0:17:05Well, I've went for Sonya.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07- OK.- Yes.- And why?- Yeah.

0:17:07 > 0:17:11There's something that's ringing alarm bells for me, for her, at the moment.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14- Is it instinct?- I think it might be instinct.- It's your gut instinct? - Yeah.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Let's find out some more information,

0:17:16 > 0:17:18because it's on to round three now,

0:17:18 > 0:17:20the Police Interviews.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Time to head back to Mortcliff Police Station, where Simmons

0:17:23 > 0:17:27has some vital information for the detectives.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37We've done some more work on the body.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Based upon potassium levels in the eyes,

0:17:39 > 0:17:43I'd estimate the time of death to be some time on Thursday afternoon.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Cause of death was a broken neck.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47He fell headfirst into the pit,

0:17:47 > 0:17:49which means he must have been pushed.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Do we know that for certain?

0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Couldn't he have tripped?- Well, there was no debris around the pit.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56There was nothing for him to trip over.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Good point, well made, Simmons.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00The Hamish Estate, who employed Joe,

0:18:00 > 0:18:02say he didn't turn up to work on Friday.

0:18:02 > 0:18:06That makes sense why Thursday was the day he drew his last breath.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08- Mmm.- Also, we charged his phone,

0:18:08 > 0:18:11and no calls were made to and from it on Thursday.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19We've brought you here today to question you regarding the death of Joe Jenkins.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- You're kidding?- We know you had a few run-ins with him in the past,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27so we'd like to ask you where you were on Thursday afternoon.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29I was home ALONE.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33So he was found in the hole, then?

0:18:33 > 0:18:34How do you know about the hole?

0:18:34 > 0:18:36I saw it on the news.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41If it's the hole I'm thinking of, well, then I think it's one of ours.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43We dug holes occasionally, for twitchers.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45You know, to bird-watch.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Where's the hole you're thinking of?

0:18:47 > 0:18:49It's about a ten-minute walk from Sceptre Farm.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54Lance Grafton was asking about it recently.

0:18:54 > 0:18:56He's been using it, I reckon.

0:18:56 > 0:18:58- He is...?- A local.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00He used to be a lumberjack around here.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02He's familiar with the woods.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04And why would he be interested in that?

0:19:04 > 0:19:06He's been bird-watching, I think.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10You see, he asked to borrow a drill too.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13- A drill?- Yes, well, I assume to erect a bird hide screen.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19We've spoken to Ralph Moore

0:19:19 > 0:19:24and he's told us that you know about a particular pit near the forest at Sceptre Farm.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Can you tell us what you were doing there?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28I bird-watch from it.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31I'm a...an "orthinologist".

0:19:31 > 0:19:33You mean an ornithologist?

0:19:34 > 0:19:37Indeed. I like watching the ospreys.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40I'm afraid there's been a fatality at the pit.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Can you tell us what you were doing on Thursday?

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Well, I went to the butcher in the morning.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50And popped home to let a builder in,

0:19:50 > 0:19:54then headed to Concido Woods for a spot of bird-watching.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56But I wasn't at the pit, though.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59What time were you at the woods?

0:19:59 > 0:20:03I'd say about, what, 1.30?

0:20:03 > 0:20:04Did you see anyone else there?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08I saw no-one.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I did hear a couple of gunshots.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Who is it? Who's died?

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Joe Jenkins, under suspicious circumstances.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16No alibi.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Have you spoken to Sonya Proust?

0:20:21 > 0:20:23We've spoken to her father, Colin.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Well, Sonya's been in loads of trouble with poaching in the past.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28And I always see her in those woods.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36When was the last time you saw Joe Jenkins?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38On Thursday morning.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40He came into the shop to buy some sausages.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45He said he was worried about someone stealing eggs.

0:20:45 > 0:20:49Joe was a bit of a scaremonger, if the truth be told.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51It appears he had good reason to be.

0:20:52 > 0:20:57What were you and your dad doing on Thursday afternoon?

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Dad was at the butcher's.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02- And where were you?- I was walking Trent.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- In the woods?- No.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09You've been in trouble there before, haven't you?

0:21:09 > 0:21:13"Poaching, Concido Woods,"

0:21:13 > 0:21:14it says on your record.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22I'm not allowed to go into Concido Woods.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24I walk the dog in Dew Mead Forest.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Krystyna, your face, I love it.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33Both of us at the same time went...

0:21:33 > 0:21:35LAUGHTER

0:21:35 > 0:21:37- James?- Right, working the way back,

0:21:37 > 0:21:41Sonya's obviously got history for poaching in the woods.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45She's said that she's not got an alibi for Thursday afternoon

0:21:45 > 0:21:47because she's out walking the dog.

0:21:47 > 0:21:50So there's no-one to corroborate her alibi.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53Well, for me, I'm interested in Lance.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55He said he was meeting a builder.

0:21:55 > 0:21:57He asked to borrow a drill. Now, was this for the builder?

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Was this for some other use?

0:21:59 > 0:22:03And he then admitted he did go to the woods, where he heard shots.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05- Yes.- I'd like to know whether that's true or not.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07Yes, they were how many gunshots?

0:22:07 > 0:22:09- Two.- Two gunshots.- Yeah.

0:22:09 > 0:22:13But, as you picked up before, there was no gun found...

0:22:13 > 0:22:14..at the crime scene, was there?

0:22:14 > 0:22:15- No.- Not that I saw.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18Hmm! Well, let's take a look at the suspects' board.

0:22:18 > 0:22:22We now know who the mysterious Ralph Moore is.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24So we've got Colin Proust, Ralph Moore,

0:22:24 > 0:22:28Sonya Proust, and Lance Grafton.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31Nothing stands out.

0:22:31 > 0:22:32It's good that we've seen Ralph,

0:22:32 > 0:22:35but I get the feeling he wants to put the past behind him.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38- There was just something about the way he acted.- Yeah.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41It didn't seem like, he wasn't, how do I say it?

0:22:41 > 0:22:43He wasn't cheery in the interview.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45He was, kind of, just, "Oh, come on, that was in the past."

0:22:45 > 0:22:46He was quite upfront.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Lance, he didn't even know what a bird-watcher was...

0:22:49 > 0:22:52- Yes.- ..after he said he was...- Bit of a mistake there.- Aye.- Yes.

0:22:52 > 0:22:55So my attention is still on Lance at the moment.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57With Ralph, again, he's not got a motive.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59He said he was home alone.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02He did ask the question - if he was found in the hole.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04That seems like he's asking something...

0:23:04 > 0:23:07He knew which hole they were referring to.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10- Yeah, he did.- So, let's see if we can help you out.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12- And we've added a new one to the list for you.- Oh!

0:23:12 > 0:23:15So, there's the deer trading licence,

0:23:15 > 0:23:19the forensics report on the hair samples found on the victim's clothes,

0:23:19 > 0:23:20and we have a new piece of evidence,

0:23:20 > 0:23:23the accounting book for

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Meat And Greet Butchers.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28I'm all about forensics, so I'll leave it up to you guys.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32This is true, but I would love to know what's going on in that butcher's business.

0:23:32 > 0:23:34- Yeah, I know.- Yeah, cos I think there's a lot of money there.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37And the four monkeys, as it was called, which was two grand,

0:23:37 > 0:23:40I want to know how they're covering that in the books.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43I do, but then I want to find out about the hair sample as well,

0:23:43 > 0:23:45so I am interested in that as well.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Yeah, I am.- It would be good cos we have walked away from Colin.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49We haven't brought anything up with him.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52I need a decision from you about which piece of evidence you want to see.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56- I want to see the hair sample forensic results, please.- Right.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58I will go with James, I'll go with the hair sample.

0:23:58 > 0:23:59I got my way last time, so...

0:23:59 > 0:24:01- Krystyna?- I'm all about forensics.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03OK. The hair samples found in the

0:24:03 > 0:24:05lower legs and hands of the deceased,

0:24:05 > 0:24:08so you can see there, there's a

0:24:08 > 0:24:11negative match to the human beings.

0:24:11 > 0:24:12Not human.

0:24:12 > 0:24:14However...

0:24:14 > 0:24:17- GREGOR LAUGHS - We're all thinking that contact

0:24:17 > 0:24:20trace has been made with the dog at

0:24:20 > 0:24:22discovery of the body.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23Mmm-hmm.

0:24:23 > 0:24:28Where, if it is Sonya, and she's out walking the dog,

0:24:28 > 0:24:34then contact trace could have been made at the moment of killing.

0:24:34 > 0:24:38- It is Locard's principle that every contact leaves a trace. - Of course it is.- Absolutely.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41OK, Armchair Detectives, it's time

0:24:41 > 0:24:43again to pick your prime suspect.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45I need you to write down your choices now.

0:24:45 > 0:24:50Are you going to pick Colin, Ralph, Sonya or Lance?

0:24:56 > 0:25:00Time's up. Notepads down, please, Armchair Detectives.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05Gregor, last time your prime suspect was Lance.

0:25:05 > 0:25:06I have changed my mind.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10I'm steering towards Colin, because he has not been around a lot,

0:25:10 > 0:25:12- but he has a lot to do with this. - Mmm.

0:25:12 > 0:25:16So I now want to know more about Colin because he's hiding somewhere.

0:25:16 > 0:25:20Krystyna, last time you went for Colin.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23- I've now, sort of, got Sonya in mind.- Mmm-hmm.

0:25:23 > 0:25:26But I think in cahoots with Colin, with her dad.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29- Sonya's your prime suspects? - She is at the moment, yes.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33James, last time your prime suspect was Sonya.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35- Mmm-hmm.- Have you stuck with Sonya?

0:25:35 > 0:25:39I have, because I still feel that something's quite not right there,

0:25:39 > 0:25:43and I'm still missing something and I'm itching to know what it is.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46- You just need a little bit more information, don't you?- Yes.- Yes.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48- Shall I try and help you out? - Please.- Yeah.- All right, then.

0:25:48 > 0:25:51We're up to round four - Dig Deeper.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55We're going to get a sneak peek at what some of the suspects were up to

0:25:55 > 0:25:58a couple of weeks before Joe's murder.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13Three months isn't all that long, really. You're out before you know it.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15They give you a bit of a fine sometimes, too.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18If you're a repeat offender, like Sonya, they can force you to wear

0:26:18 > 0:26:22a tracker, but all in all, the profits far outweigh the risks.

0:26:23 > 0:26:27I figured you'd know the estate and might be able to give me some tips.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29I'd recommend Concido Woods.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Lovely pine and conifer trees there.

0:26:31 > 0:26:35You often see ospreys fly from there to the lake, to catch some fish.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Nests are a bit high.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39You'll need some decent climbing shoes.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Not a problem.

0:26:41 > 0:26:42You have to be careful of Joe, though.

0:26:42 > 0:26:46He's the forest ranger on the estate and the forest is private.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49But I've dug several pits he doesn't know about yet.

0:26:49 > 0:26:51There's one I recommend.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53You're more than welcome to use it for your egg hunting.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55I occasionally use it for hunting deer.

0:26:57 > 0:26:58Directions.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02When you get to Sceptre Farm on the edge of the woods, park nearby.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04It's got rudimentary camo covering.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06But don't stand on it, as it won't take the weight.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Also, you may need this.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20How's my trophy going?

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Anything special takes time.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24Be patient. You won't be sorry.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34- Hello, chaps.- All right, Lance?

0:27:36 > 0:27:38Meat or messages?

0:27:38 > 0:27:42Both, actually. I think I'd like a nice piece of venison.

0:27:42 > 0:27:43Coming right up.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49This is exceptionally high quality meat.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51I bet it is.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55My newly acquired venison is flying out of here.

0:27:55 > 0:28:01Not to mention the more decorative aspects of that very fine animal.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03So, we're still on for...

0:28:03 > 0:28:07More than ready. At least one a week.

0:28:07 > 0:28:08Fantastic.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16Why would he give him a boomerang?

0:28:16 > 0:28:18LAUGHTER

0:28:18 > 0:28:21I believe that was the drill, cos it was quite a big thing.

0:28:21 > 0:28:25But I'm going to say, I'm very jealous of Colin's moustache.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27It's a great, great moustache.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29- But it's a very evil moustache. - It is an evil moustache!

0:28:29 > 0:28:32James? What are you thinking?

0:28:32 > 0:28:37Well, Ralph's given Lance some advice on how to build some screens

0:28:37 > 0:28:41for the, for hiding out. Also gave him directions,

0:28:41 > 0:28:44and we know that Lance has been to the pit,

0:28:44 > 0:28:46because we've got the forensic evidence.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49Well, it's time to pick some evidence to look at.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51Here are your choices.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53The deer trading licence,

0:28:53 > 0:28:57the accounting book for Meat And Greet Butchers, and a new item -

0:28:57 > 0:29:02details of what was in the package that Ralph handed to Lance.

0:29:02 > 0:29:05I would like to see if Ralph is on the deer hunting permit.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09Because he's supplying trophies to the butchers, he's supplying venison...

0:29:09 > 0:29:12I really want to see the Meat And Greet accounts.

0:29:12 > 0:29:14It's just difficult. I keep looking over at the other Armchair

0:29:14 > 0:29:17Detectives. Some of them are like that, and some of them are like, "No!"

0:29:17 > 0:29:18It's an intriguing thing.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20Krystyna, what would you like to see?

0:29:20 > 0:29:22I'd like to see the deer hunting permit, as well.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25So what are you going to plump for?

0:29:25 > 0:29:28- We'll go with the deer hunting permit, that's what yous want to see.- Deer hunting permit?

0:29:28 > 0:29:32- I'm perfectly OK with that.- OK, let's have a look at the deer hunting permit.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35The deer trading licence gives legal permission for the Meat And Greet

0:29:35 > 0:29:41Butchers to hunt and trade in venison.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46Specifically, one per week.

0:29:46 > 0:29:49That is what the trading licence permits.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52One per week.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56- Now that we know that, I think seeing the accounts would be quite helpful.- Yeah.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Now, Armchair Detectives,

0:29:58 > 0:30:00it's time to lock in your prime suspect once again.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04Colin, Ralph, Sonya or Lance.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13Notepads down, Armchair Detectives.

0:30:13 > 0:30:17Right, let's see what's been happening in your wonderful brains.

0:30:17 > 0:30:21Gregor, last time your prime suspect was Colin.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24What have you gone for this time?

0:30:24 > 0:30:26I have gone back to Lance.

0:30:26 > 0:30:30- Why?- Colin has a shop. He has a daughter to look after, though,

0:30:30 > 0:30:32who's already been convicted for poaching.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35It would be bad if he was caught for doing naughty things,

0:30:35 > 0:30:38but I think he uses other people for that.

0:30:38 > 0:30:42Krystyna, last time your prime suspect was Sonya,

0:30:42 > 0:30:43- have you changed your mind?- No.

0:30:43 > 0:30:49- No?- They are getting more than one deer a week.

0:30:49 > 0:30:53- She's definitely poaching more than that, I'm sure.- OK.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56James, last time you went for Sonya.

0:30:56 > 0:30:58- This time?- I've stuck with Sonya,

0:30:58 > 0:31:01cos there's something I noticed in the first film.

0:31:01 > 0:31:05When she went up the ladder to help Lance, she knocked her glasses

0:31:05 > 0:31:07off and the glasses broke.

0:31:07 > 0:31:11So these broken glasses have clearly got some impact to come,

0:31:11 > 0:31:14and I've been waiting, and it's not happened yet.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Well, let's find out a little bit more. It's time for round five,

0:31:17 > 0:31:19the Final Clues.

0:31:19 > 0:31:23Knight and Slater make a visit to the Meat And Greet Butchers,

0:31:23 > 0:31:25but they're not there to buy lamb chops.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39Sonya!

0:31:40 > 0:31:41You have visitors.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45Dad, you're going to have to help me balance these books.

0:31:45 > 0:31:46Oh, hello.

0:31:46 > 0:31:49That was fast.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52We got a message that you remembered something, and we were in the area, so, um...

0:31:53 > 0:31:58- ..what can you tell us?- I think I'd heard Lance saying something about birds' eggs.

0:31:58 > 0:32:02He likes his collection and curiosities, does Lance.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04He has connections.

0:32:04 > 0:32:09He told me about a hole he'd started to use for bird-watching.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12Joe had said to me he'd suspected something was going on, and was

0:32:12 > 0:32:15trying to track down if someone was stealing eggs.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18- Do you like bird-watching?- Yes.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20I've been looking forward to the golden eagles.

0:32:25 > 0:32:29So, gentlemen, got more riveting questions for me?

0:32:29 > 0:32:30Indeed we do.

0:32:31 > 0:32:36You said you watch birds, but do you know anything about birds' eggs?

0:32:37 > 0:32:40Well, birds lay eggs, of course.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44Birds hatch from eggs, ostrich eggs are huge.

0:32:45 > 0:32:48We believe Ralph Moore lent you a drill.

0:32:48 > 0:32:53- What was that for?- I used it to erect a bird hide screen.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55And yet, we haven't come across a bird hide screen.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58What are you suggesting?

0:32:59 > 0:33:02We've heard several tales of you poaching birds' eggs,

0:33:02 > 0:33:08so I suppose what I'm suggesting is that if we were to search your house

0:33:08 > 0:33:10right now, we'd find evidence of that.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17- Slater?- On it, Sir.- Look, I've only taken a few eggs.

0:33:17 > 0:33:21You do know it's illegal to disturb wild birds' nests and take their eggs?

0:33:21 > 0:33:23I know nothing about Joe's death.

0:33:23 > 0:33:24We'll be the judge of that.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31Right now, I'm placing you under arrest for offences under the Wildlife And Countryside Act.

0:33:36 > 0:33:38Lance, quite the "orthinologist" there.

0:33:38 > 0:33:39"Birds lay eggs.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41"Birds come from eggs. Ostrich eggs are big."

0:33:41 > 0:33:42LAUGHTER

0:33:42 > 0:33:46So, James, did you notice anything?

0:33:46 > 0:33:49Yeah, she walked into that stool, cos she wasn't wearing her glasses.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51And what do you think that means, though?

0:33:51 > 0:33:53I don't know. I can't fit it in.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55I can't link anything.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57I am leaning more towards Sonya.

0:33:57 > 0:34:00- Yeah.- Well, it's good to see Lance is guilty of something.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02- So he was hiding things.- Yes.

0:34:02 > 0:34:06- I thought it was something to do with Lance.- It was interesting, the moment you brought up the

0:34:06 > 0:34:10glasses, they brought that point back into the film, that, yeah,

0:34:10 > 0:34:12she cannae see properly.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15I noticed the gun in the butcher's shop.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17- And we still haven't explained the two gunshots.- Yeah.

0:34:17 > 0:34:23So the question is, can she not see properly, and she, bang, bang, scare, fall, dead,

0:34:23 > 0:34:25or was it the dad? So we're back to that family.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27Back to that family again.

0:34:27 > 0:34:29Well, let's see if we can help you out,

0:34:29 > 0:34:32- cos it's time to pick your final piece of evidence.- Ah!

0:34:32 > 0:34:34Only two pieces left.

0:34:34 > 0:34:37You can only see one of them before you make your final accusation.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Which one do you want to pick?

0:34:39 > 0:34:41The accounting book for Meat And Greet...

0:34:42 > 0:34:47..or details of what was in the package Ralph handed to Lance?

0:34:47 > 0:34:51We keep on mentioning that they've handed him a drill. I'd be surprised if it's not a drill.

0:34:51 > 0:34:52- Aye, by this point.- OK.

0:34:52 > 0:34:56- I want to see the Meat And Greet accounts.- However...

0:34:56 > 0:34:59..there are two gunshots. There's not a thing to say that the gunshots

0:34:59 > 0:35:03were with a rifle. They could have been with a handgun.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06- I totally agree.- And that did have sort of, like, the shape of a handgun, didn't it?

0:35:06 > 0:35:08- But...- Could it have been a handgun?

0:35:08 > 0:35:11- Yeah.- Be a big handgun.- It would be a big handgun.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13But I think you're right, Meat And Greet,

0:35:13 > 0:35:16- I think we should see what's in that.- Yeah?- Yeah.- Yeah.- The accounts?

0:35:16 > 0:35:19ALL: Yeah. OK, you want to see the accounts for Meat And Greet.

0:35:19 > 0:35:24One deer, £1,050...

0:35:24 > 0:35:27..sold for...

0:35:27 > 0:35:32The total in the safe is £7,561.37.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35We've got an anomaly there.

0:35:35 > 0:35:37- Am I missing it?- They don't add up, do they?

0:35:37 > 0:35:41No. Then there's the four monkeys,

0:35:41 > 0:35:43which would be in the safe as well.

0:35:43 > 0:35:47- That's 2,000, you've still got an anomaly.- Yeah, there's...

0:35:47 > 0:35:50- They're definitely... up to something.- Yeah.

0:35:50 > 0:35:53The books don't add up, I think it's fair to say they don't add up.

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Well, as you know by now,

0:35:55 > 0:36:00whoever guesses correctly today will win the golden magnifying glass.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:36:04 > 0:36:07I need you to write down who you are accusing,

0:36:07 > 0:36:12It's time to answer the only question that matters, whodunnit?

0:36:12 > 0:36:16Colin, Ralph, Lance, Sonya.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18- I don't know what to do!- Your time starts now.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27- It's time to tell me who you're accusing and why.- Oh!

0:36:27 > 0:36:29Gregor, who are you accusing?

0:36:29 > 0:36:31- Colin.- Colin, why?

0:36:31 > 0:36:34He has a lot to protect.

0:36:34 > 0:36:37Joe was getting close to catching all the poachers.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Krystyna, who are you accusing?

0:36:40 > 0:36:42- Sonya.- Why?

0:36:44 > 0:36:47Her previous record of being a poacher, I just...

0:36:47 > 0:36:49And the money, the money amount,

0:36:49 > 0:36:51I just feel that she's...

0:36:52 > 0:36:54- ..still doing the poaching.- Mmm-hmm.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56James? Who are you accusing?

0:36:57 > 0:37:00I've stuck with Sonya the whole way through.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03And that's what I'm going with, Sonya.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06- Because?- Because there's still some things that don't add up.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08I don't get the glasses thing.

0:37:08 > 0:37:12I don't get the bit with the tracker.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16If it's not Sonya, then it's Colin, and I've made the wrong choice.

0:37:16 > 0:37:17LAUGHTER

0:37:17 > 0:37:22Gregor is accusing Colin, and Krystyna and James have accused Sonya.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Now before we go to Mortcliff for the answer,

0:37:24 > 0:37:28let's take a look at the piece of evidence that you didn't pick.

0:37:28 > 0:37:32You did not pick the contents of the package.

0:37:32 > 0:37:36It is an ultrasonic gun...

0:37:36 > 0:37:38- Oh!- ..used to scare away birds,

0:37:38 > 0:37:42especially when in forests and the countryside.

0:37:42 > 0:37:43So it wasn't a drill.

0:37:44 > 0:37:50- You said gun.- Salutary lesson, there, Armchair Detectives, not to make assumptions

0:37:50 > 0:37:52about what the evidence is.

0:37:52 > 0:37:56Armchair Detectives, it's time to find out...

0:37:56 > 0:38:02- Oh, no.- ..what really happened in today's story, Deerly Departed.

0:38:02 > 0:38:06- I don't want to know. - Who killed Joe Jenkins?

0:38:06 > 0:38:09Let's find out whodunnit.

0:38:20 > 0:38:24Colin was telling the truth about his dog finding the body.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26The hairs on the victim's arms and legs were different to that of the

0:38:26 > 0:38:31suspect's, and the hair discovered on Joe was quite different to the human samples.

0:38:33 > 0:38:39Colin said his dog didn't disturb the crime scene, so how did the dog hairs get there?

0:38:40 > 0:38:42Take a look at this.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53There are discrepancies in the Meat And Greet shop's accounts.

0:38:55 > 0:39:01- The butchers were selling poached deer meat, and Joe was their only obstacle.- Mmm-hmm.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05I think they're also dealing in taxidermy.

0:39:07 > 0:39:11A carcass would go for, say, 200 quid,

0:39:11 > 0:39:16but a full stag's head and antlers would fetch up to 2,000.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20So, Sonya or Colin?

0:39:20 > 0:39:24Well, here's the information you wanted regarding the binoculars, Sir.

0:39:32 > 0:39:33I think we have all we need.

0:39:35 > 0:39:36Good work, Slater.

0:39:39 > 0:39:42We know you walk your dog occasionally.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44Only where I'm allowed.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46You see, that was my initial confusion.

0:39:47 > 0:39:53How did you get to Concido Woods without being tracked?

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Then, when we came to visit you,

0:39:55 > 0:39:57you banged your leg quite hard without flinching.

0:39:57 > 0:40:01Unfortunately, the officers didn't really pay much attention to your leg...

0:40:02 > 0:40:05..when they attached the tracker to it.

0:40:05 > 0:40:08Please place your leg on the table, Ms Bruce.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13LOUD BANG

0:40:17 > 0:40:18HOLLOW TAP

0:40:20 > 0:40:23See, when you wanted to go to the woods,

0:40:23 > 0:40:25you simply swapped your prosthetic leg

0:40:25 > 0:40:27for the one without the tracker.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31So when you heard that Joe was going to have a crackdown on poaching in

0:40:31 > 0:40:34the forest, you decided to take matters into your own hand.

0:40:34 > 0:40:40See, Lance had told you where Ralph's pits were in the forest.

0:40:40 > 0:40:47So, you fired the ornamental gun from your dad's shop and waited.

0:40:48 > 0:40:51After 20 minutes, Joe hadn't arrived, so you fired again.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54This time, he heard the shot.

0:40:54 > 0:40:56And eventually he found you,

0:40:56 > 0:40:58whereupon you pushed him into the pit.

0:41:00 > 0:41:06However, Joe grabbed your binoculars before he fell into the pit

0:41:06 > 0:41:11- and broke his neck.- Before you pushed Joe, he petted your dog.

0:41:11 > 0:41:16Bess gave him hairs on his lower legs and hands.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19Hairs that didn't match the hairs from any of the other suspects.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21How do you know the binoculars were mine?

0:41:21 > 0:41:23They could be anyone's.

0:41:23 > 0:41:28Well, you see, we know that your left eye is a lot more short-sighted

0:41:28 > 0:41:30than your right, because the left

0:41:30 > 0:41:32lens on your glasses is a

0:41:32 > 0:41:34lot thicker than the right.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38Also, on the binoculars we found...

0:41:40 > 0:41:43..the lens on the left is focused to the maximum.

0:41:44 > 0:41:48We're sure if we test your other pair of binoculars, we'll find the

0:41:48 > 0:41:50- same thing.- I want my lawyer.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Sonya Proust, I am arresting you for the murder of Joe Jenkins.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Wow.

0:42:03 > 0:42:07If anyone at home spotted the prosthetic leg,

0:42:07 > 0:42:10give yourself another biscuit!

0:42:10 > 0:42:11LAUGHTER

0:42:13 > 0:42:16I quite literally could not believe my eyes.

0:42:18 > 0:42:25And most importantly, Armchair Detectives, James's career is safe, ladies and gentlemen.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27CHEERING

0:42:29 > 0:42:32Well, congratulations, Krystyna and James.

0:42:32 > 0:42:35You both picked the killer and are today's winners,

0:42:35 > 0:42:37winning your first golden magnifying glass.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Well done!

0:42:42 > 0:42:44And I can tell you all at home,

0:42:44 > 0:42:47for the very first time in this series of Armchair Detectives,

0:42:47 > 0:42:49I also picked the right suspect. Come on!

0:42:49 > 0:42:51CHEERING

0:42:51 > 0:42:52Number one.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Well, that's all for Armchair Detectives.

0:42:54 > 0:42:56Come back next time,

0:42:56 > 0:43:00where Knight and Slater uncover Hawaiian-themed criminal activity.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02ALL: Ooh!

0:43:02 > 0:43:04But remember,

0:43:04 > 0:43:07no-one gets away with murder in Mortcliff.

0:43:07 > 0:43:08Goodbye.

0:43:11 > 0:43:14Well done, James. Well done, Krystyna.

0:43:14 > 0:43:16Hard luck, Gregor, hard luck.
