00:00Previously, on The Bill.
00:02Ben Meadows.
00:03Ben Meadows? When did he get out?
00:05When he went down for dealing, right?
00:06Jeremy Townshend applied for a visa,
00:08and all I got was rejection.
00:09But you put me away because I trusted you!
00:12And you let me down!
00:13My objectivity has not been swayed by what happened to Ben in the past.
00:16Let him take us to the deal, and then close the net.
00:19I want details of the vehicle, Linton Barry and Benjamin Meadows to all MPS.
00:23And make sure everybody knows that they could be armed.
00:30The vehicle was last sighted on waste ground near Wyman Road.
00:50Occupants believed to be Benjamin Meadows and Linton Barry.
00:54Look, Kate, we do not have approach. It's assumed they're armed and dangerous.
00:58Vicky, get on to IBO.
00:59I want ANPR, CCTV, everything within a two-mile radius.
01:02Sure.
01:03Any sign of a weapon?
01:04Not yet, but we have found a bag of what looks like the PPP drug.
01:07Right, I want the whole area cordoned off from the other side of that road.
01:10OK, I've got some people on this side. I'll get some more down there.
01:13Right, and let's organise a door-to-door in case somebody walked off from here.
01:15Sir.
01:16Look, what's happened?
01:19I'll tell you what's happened.
01:20We've got two victims with gunshot wounds. That's what happens.
01:23We've got Mark Sennett down there. He's alive but barely conscious.
01:26Sennett the buyer?
01:27That's right, and over there we've got Zepo Clark. He was dead when we arrived.
01:31What's Zepo doing here? He had nothing to do with the deal.
01:33That's what we're going to find out.
01:34What about Ben? I mean, I know he's your son.
01:36Ben wasn't here, Linton Barry wasn't here, and the money wasn't here.
01:38I think we've been had.
01:39I know we've been had.
01:41All right, Stuart, I want you to go with the ambulance.
01:43See if you can get anything out of Sennett.
01:44Yes, come on.
01:45Gardiner, Sennett's in IBO. He said he can update us as soon as he can.
01:48Right, I want the crime scene examiners down here, OK?
01:50Yeah.
01:51Casey, I want you to check out all the local hospitals.
01:53See if anybody with a gunshot wound has turned up.
01:58I'm in IBO, sir.
01:59We've picked up the target vehicle as it passed a camera in Goddard Street
02:02three minutes after the shooting, but nothing since then.
02:05All right, Johnny, did you see how many occupants?
02:07Negative, sir. It's impossible to tell.
02:09All right, look, if they were in Goddard Street,
02:11the chances are they were heading for the Abelard.
02:13So see if you can pick them up there.
02:15Keep me informed. Over.
02:28His belongings.
02:29OK, thank you.
02:30Can I talk to him now?
02:31Yeah, but not for long.
02:32OK.
02:33Mark Sennett.
02:34Hiya.
02:35I'm DS Taylor from Some Hill.
02:37So, Mark, can you tell me what happened tonight?
02:39Don't know.
02:41OK, now...
02:43I know that you met with Lint and buried it by drugs.
02:46So what happened? Did he double-cross you? Was it him that shot you?
02:49No.
02:50It came from nowhere.
02:53So it wasn't Lint?
02:55No.
02:57I'm surprised.
03:00It was someone else.
03:06Mark?
03:08All right, sir.
03:10Let me know when we can talk to him.
03:14Jack, what happened?
03:17Well, we were getting ready to intercept the deal between Sennett and Barry,
03:20you know, at the car park on Stan Road.
03:23Just like Ben said.
03:24Stewart was following Lint in his car and we lost them.
03:26And they didn't come to the expected location?
03:28Well, we heard gunshots, we were brought here, this is what we found.
03:30So what have we got to go on?
03:31We've got two victims.
03:33Sennett, he was injured, he's now at St Hughes.
03:35And the other one?
03:36Zeppo Clark, he was dead when we arrived.
03:38Franco's boy.
03:40Did Ben say anything about Franco being involved?
03:42I don't know, but it doesn't matter.
03:43Cos Ben either gave us the wrong location
03:45or he tipped Lint off about the whole thing.
03:47It's not the first time that Ben's played the middle against both ends.
03:49I told you something like this could happen.
03:52Jack, be careful.
03:53Be careful?
03:54What, we've got one dead body and a man injured?
03:58I think you need to get back to the station.
04:00I'll meet you back there.
04:01I want you to coordinate with IBO and set up the incident room.
04:04I'll be more use here.
04:05In view of your connection with Ben, that is a matter of opinion.
04:08Now, I will oversee things here for now.
04:15Right.
04:16Have you got Ben's bail hostel address?
04:18Or Linton's home address?
04:19Uniformer sent cars round to both.
04:21There's no answer, but I've been told to wait.
04:23What about Petal Ford, Ben's girlfriend? Have you got her address?
04:25Yeah, it's 103 Mayfield House.
04:27It's on the Abelard.
04:28Well, they don't need me in the incident room.
04:44Who is it?
04:45I'm looking for Ben Meadows.
04:50Are you Petal?
04:51Yeah.
04:52I'm Jack Meadows. I'm Ben's father.
04:54He's dad.
04:55But he said you were...
04:56What?
04:57Nothing.
05:00I'm a DCI from Sonhill.
05:04And I need to speak to him.
05:06Where's DCI Meadows?
05:07He's on his way in, sir.
05:08Still?
05:10I see.
05:12Look, Mickey.
05:13I know you and Jack get on well together.
05:15I'd like you to keep an eye on him.
05:16I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that, sir.
05:18I'm not asking you to spy on him,
05:20but with his son being mixed up in all this, for his own sake,
05:22I think somebody needs to make sure he doesn't do anything rash.
05:24All right?
05:25Sir?
05:27You been hiding him?
05:28No. No, of course not.
05:30Listen, I...
05:31When was the last time you saw him?
05:33This morning, then.
05:34He stayed over the last couple of nights.
05:36If you try calling him, I've got his number.
05:38He's not answering.
05:40Why do you need to see him?
05:41Earlier this evening, there was an incident, and we think that Ben was involved.
05:44Now, it's essential I get hold of him.
05:45So, if you see him or you hear from him, you tell him to call me,
05:47or you do it yourself.
05:48Is that understood?
05:49Okay. If I see him, I'll tell him.
05:51Thank you.
05:56Stuart.
05:57How's Mark Sennett?
05:58Still in surgery, sir.
05:59He took one on his stomach, so we can't talk to him till morning.
06:01Did he give us anything to go on?
06:03Yeah, he said it wasn't Linton that shot him,
06:05but these bullets just came out of nowhere.
06:07Okay, thanks.
06:10DCI Meadows.
06:11Where have you been?
06:12Just following the parade.
06:13I wanted to make sure that Ben wasn't hiding at his girlfriend's.
06:15Right.
06:16Any luck?
06:17No, sir.
06:19Okay, from the sounds of it, we're looking at some sort of ambush.
06:23So, we're talking about Zeppel Clark, a forensics founder gunner.
06:26Not yet, but they're still working this thing.
06:28Where are we on the search for Linton, Barry and Ben?
06:30Well, IBR have made one sighting in Goddard Street.
06:33We've got a team chasing up the CCTV.
06:35Descriptions have been circulated, but so far the trail is curled.
06:38Sir, if this was an attempt to ambush the PCP deal,
06:40then someone must have set it up.
06:42And apart from Linton and Senate,
06:43the only other person who knew about the deal was Ben.
06:51Jack, I'm replacing you as SIO.
06:54From now on, I'm going to run the investigation, okay?
06:56By all means, stay on the team,
06:58but you and I know that with your son involved, there's a conflict of interest.
07:01I can't let you make this personal.
07:13MUSIC PLAYS
07:23Bob, now.
07:25What are you doing here?
07:26Same as you, by the looks of it.
07:28You all right?
07:30I just want to sort this mess out.
07:33Morning, sense. Here for the tour?
07:35Have you got something to show us?
07:37Yeah, well, you know that rain that everyone's been complaining about recently?
07:40Well, not me.
07:42Gives us lots of lovely, soft damp earth.
07:45And that gives us footprints and tyre tracks.
07:49Looks like two cars entered the waste ground.
07:52One of them parked up back there.
07:55The other drew up here.
07:57Now, I'm guessing that this is Linton Barry's car
08:00because we're pretty sure that these are Ben's prints
08:03and seeing as the two of them were together,
08:06I'm thinking that the others must be Linton's.
08:09What about the prints facing us?
08:11Well, we've matched these footprints to the shoes of the guy at St Q's.
08:15Mark Sennett.
08:16So it looks like the deal took place here, then?
08:18Yeah.
08:19But over here, there were two other sets of footprints.
08:24One of them Zeppo Park.
08:26That's where his body was found.
08:28The other, I don't know yet.
08:30So we're talking about an ambush, yeah?
08:32Yeah, well, I can't tell you who fired first
08:34but there were definitely shots fired from over there.
08:37Nine mil. Some sort of semi-automatic.
08:40Not exactly subtle.
08:44Right, can we all gather round, please?
08:48Now, I know that some of you worked through the night, so thank you.
08:52You know that last night, a sting that we set up on a drugs deal went wrong.
08:56It seems the location changed at the last minute.
08:59Gunshots were heard and we were left with two victims.
09:02DCI Meadows visited the waste ground this morning. Jack?
09:05Well, according to forensics, it was an ambush.
09:07Linton and our informer, Ben, were setting up the deal here with Sennett
09:11when the firing started.
09:13It came from down here.
09:14This is where Zeppo Clark's body was found.
09:17Now, Eddie reckons there was somebody else here.
09:19Well, we know that Zeppo Clark's been hanging out with Franco Osmond
09:22and he's probably helped Franco bust into Linton's PCP flat.
09:25So we're thinking that it's going to be Franco's other fellow.
09:28As far as I'm concerned, this man, Franco Osmond,
09:30is our main suspect for the ambush and for Sennett's shooting.
09:34Do you know any more about him?
09:35Not much, sir.
09:36My source said that he's been mouthing off
09:37about trying to take over Linton's turf on the Abelard.
09:39OK, Stuart, do you think you can try to pull him in?
09:41No heroics.
09:42What about Linton Barry?
09:43If he's the only person who returned fire,
09:45then he must have been the one that shot Zeppo.
09:47We're trying to look here, Linton, under money.
09:48Anything new there?
09:49Well, as of this moment, Garth, we've got two sightings of Linton's car.
09:52The first one we know about was on Goddard Street.
09:54The second one was on Delo Road,
09:56which is just round the corner from the Abelard.
09:58In it, we can see two men, but we assume it's Linton and Ben.
10:02OK, what about mobiles? Can we get anything from them?
10:04Well, we've been trying to pin them down, sir, Linton and Ben's,
10:07but so far we've been unable to triangulate their mobiles.
10:09They're moving.
10:10Looks that way, sir, yeah.
10:12So it looks like Linton and Ben left the waste ground together,
10:15so let's see if we can build a CCTV trail on them from Delo Road.
10:19Also, let's chase up that phone triangulation, all right?
10:22Go.
10:23Jack.
10:26I think you need to take back seat for now.
10:29Wait a minute, it's not enough to have Mickey following around all the time.
10:33Now, we know that Travis put pressure on Ben to set this deal up.
10:35You think Travis might have had something to do with what happened last night?
10:38I'd like to find out.
10:40OK, go and talk to Travis.
10:42But you take Mickey with you, all right?
10:44That's not open to negotiation.
10:50I'm sorry to keep you.
10:51Megan Halstock, Prison Management Unit.
10:53I'm DCO Meadows. DCO Wayne.
10:54Nice to meet you.
10:55I've sent someone to bring Travis to the interview room. I'll take you through.
10:58Look, I'll do this on my own, OK?
11:00Do you think I could take a look at Travis' prison records for the last six months,
11:03analogue of all the calls he's made?
11:05Sure. If you wait here, I'll be with you in a minute.
11:12Frank Wasman, police. Open up.
11:14Can't see anything.
11:15Shall we put it in?
11:16Not without a warrant.
11:17Well, it's hardly surprising he's not here.
11:19Prime suspect for broken into Linton's PCP flat, the assault on Petal yesterday.
11:23Yeah, he's not making himself look innocent, is he?
11:25Right, let's leave it. Come back with a warrant.
11:29PHONE VIBRATES
11:33Funny how I never saw you so much when your boy was here.
11:36Now you can't keep away.
11:38Yesterday, today.
11:39Must be your magnetic personality.
11:41So what is it this time?
11:42The drugs dealer you organised between Sonny and Linton went wrong.
11:46Somebody tried to hijack it and Sonny was shot.
11:48I heard something about a shooting.
11:50Someone from Frank Wasman's lot got talked, right?
11:54So you're not worried then that Frank was trying to take over your patch?
11:56Get rid of Linton and have the place to himself?
11:58Franco! He wouldn't know what to do with it if he got it.
12:02He's just wind up and point.
12:05So who's doing the winding?
12:06If you find out, let me know. I'll get it sorted.
12:09Look, I know you got Ben to organise this deal.
12:11You still haven't got your head round it, have you?
12:13In case you've forgotten, Ben was a drug dealer.
12:17Nine times out of ten, when someone leaves here,
12:20they go back and do exactly what they did before they came in.
12:23You should know that.
12:24Yeah, especially if they've got someone like you on their back.
12:25You think I made him do something he didn't want to do?
12:28I know you did.
12:29You're kidding yourself!
12:31The truth is, if you hadn't put him in here in the first place,
12:36we wouldn't be having this conversation.
12:39So don't try putting the blame on me.
12:42Whatever's happened is down to you.
12:50Governor, the call log has only made four calls, all to his brief.
12:53Four?
12:54Officially.
12:55Nobody knows for sure how many smuggled mobiles there are.
12:57Has he ever been found with anything?
12:59Not so far. He's too smart for that.
13:01There's been a bit of a shortage recently,
13:03particularly skunk and diazepam.
13:05Of course, that's good news for us,
13:06and I'd like to put it down to an increase in our efficiency,
13:09but it's more likely Travis has had a problem with his suppliers on the outside.
13:13What was Ben's relationship like with Travis?
13:15They were friendly enough, I suppose, but to be honest with you,
13:18I thought that was probably because Ben was paying him off.
13:22Is Tommy Ford on the same wing?
13:24Tommy? Yeah. He used to share a cell with Ben.
13:26Right, I want to talk to him.
13:28OK.
13:36This is DCI Meadows and DC Web, Tommy.
13:38They want to have a word with you.
13:40Thanks.
13:41Hi, Tommy.
13:43Actually, I'm Ben's dad.
13:46Ben said his dad was a copper.
13:48Is that why you didn't come to visit?
13:50Something like that.
13:52So you shared with Ben, then, eh?
13:54You got much longer to go?
13:56Six months, if I get parole.
13:59You got a few books?
14:00Don't have nothing else to do most of the time but read.
14:04Tom Sawyer.
14:06Oh, I know this one.
14:07That was Ben's.
14:09He thought I should read it because it was about a young guy
14:12standing up, doing the right thing.
14:16Look, Tommy, I need to find Ben.
14:20He's in trouble.
14:22Have you got any idea who he might contact on the outside
14:25if he needed to get away for a bit?
14:29Only Petal.
14:31What about his mates in here? Who did he talk to in here?
14:33Ben was like me. He kept himself to himself.
14:36What about Danny Travis?
14:38What about him?
14:39Did Ben ever tell you how Travis talked to people on the outside?
14:41How he got messages to a guy called Linton Barry?
14:44No. I don't know.
14:46I don't know.
14:47Listen, I'm not a grass, OK?
14:49I don't know nothing.
14:50Look, it's all right. Nobody's going to find out in here.
14:52I don't know nothing.
14:54I don't want no trouble, OK?
14:58All right, thanks, Tommy.
15:06Jack, wait up. I'm not sure about this.
15:08Maybe we should go back to the Knicks if there's anything there.
15:10Look, I'm going to go talk to Petal. I'll see you back there.
15:12Look, Gardiner, all's off the books.
15:13Obviously the superintendent has asked you to keep an eye on me.
15:15You just tell him I insisted on going alone.
15:18Yeah, and what...
15:19I'll see you back at the Knicks.
15:22Sir, ANPR have got a trace on Linton's Barry car about ten minutes ago.
15:26Hartfield Road, heading west.
15:28A mobile tracking site have got a stationary triangulation on Ben Meadows' mobile.
15:32It's around Slate Road here.
15:34How long ago did they fix it?
15:35Just a couple of minutes ago.
15:36OK, Stewart, contact Sierra One, tell them to get down there and look for it.
15:39Yes, sir.
15:41I haven't seen him.
15:42He hasn't called either.
15:45Has something happened to him?
15:47I don't know.
15:48It's just, when you were here last night...
15:50I'm sorry about that. I know I was short, but it was the end of a very long day.
15:54But you still think he might be in trouble?
15:56Do you mind?
15:57No, of course not.
16:02Now, this other flat that's rendered in your name,
16:05are you aware that we've found evidence of the production of PCP?
16:10Well, my colleagues are under the impression that Linton Barry
16:13forced you to take out a tenancy on this flat.
16:15I don't want to talk about that.
16:20Does Ben have a lot to do with Linton?
16:22No.
16:24I think he was supposed to, when he came out.
16:28But he told me he didn't want to do that anymore.
16:33Sierra One to DS10, go ahead.
16:35Leon, be advised that Linton Barry's car is reported to be in your area, over.
16:40Right.
16:41Could be around here anyway.
16:45Have an air time.
16:49Sierra Oscar from Sierra One, fire brigade needed on Slate Road.
16:53Target vehicle abandoned and on fire.
16:55Received.
16:59That's the index of Linton Barry's car.
17:06There's somebody in there.
17:10Sierra Oscar 595, we need all the services down here.
17:12The car has just exploded.
17:14Looks like there was somebody in there.
17:18So what's Ben been doing since he got out?
17:20He was supposed to start a job last week.
17:22But he only stayed for half a day.
17:24I think some of the lads were giving him a hard time about being an ex-con.
17:30His probation officer told him to just ignore it, but...
17:33You know what he's like.
17:35To be honest, I don't think I do.
17:39I don't think I know anything anymore as far as Ben's concerned.
17:43Well, not since...
17:44He went to prison.
17:45Well...
17:47Long before that.
17:49We haven't been getting on well.
17:52What about you?
17:53When did you meet him?
17:54You seem to know a lot about him.
17:56It was about a year ago.
17:58A visit in time.
17:59It was about a year ago.
18:01A visit in time.
18:03My brother Tommy shared a cell with Ben and...
18:06I don't know, one day we just got talking.
18:08After that...
18:11It happens quite a lot, you know.
18:13People swapping visitors.
18:15What's Tommy in for?
18:18Burglary.
18:20He's never had it very easy, inside or out.
18:23That's why Ben helped him, you know.
18:25Looked after him a bit.
18:29Ben's a good man.
18:34Okay, thanks, Jo.
18:39Jack.
18:41Can I have a word?
18:42Yeah, sure.
18:45At about midday, an ANPR camera picked up what appeared to be Ben and Linton in his car on Harville Road.
18:52Okay.
18:54Soon afterwards, the mobile tracking site provided us with a location for Ben's phone.
18:59So you found him.
19:02What happened?
19:04Sierra One traced the mobile phone to Linton Barry's car on Slate Road.
19:10It had been set alight.
19:12The fire was too strong for anybody to approach.
19:16But there was a body inside.
19:18Ben's phone was recovered from inside the vehicle.
19:21Jack, we can't be certain.
19:26I'll let you know as soon as we know anything at all.
19:50Okay.
19:51Okay.
19:52Jack.
20:19Governor.
20:20Jack.
20:23Jack.
20:32You okay?
20:39I sent him down, you know. My own son.
20:43Yeah, I could have pulled a few strings, got him a lighter sentence.
20:46Maybe even kept him out of prison altogether.
20:50You did what was right.
20:51No, I didn't.
20:53Yeah, I did what a copper would do. I'm not a father.
20:57Well, it's not like you had a lot of choices.
20:58Yes, I did.
21:00But, you know, I wanted to make him pay. I mean, I did what was easy.
21:09Governor, listen to me.
21:11Why don't you just remove yourself from this, okay? Take yourself away from it.
21:15Why don't me and you just go out and get drunk somewhere, eh?
21:18Hey.
21:21I want to go and see Sennett.
21:23Governor, you know I'm going to...
21:24Just cover for me with the superintendent, will you? Please.
21:38This was captured just after Uniform found Linton's car on fire, sir.
21:46Linton Barry?
21:47Yeah, he's come from Slate Road and he's making his way east down Humber Street.
21:50Do we know where he went from here?
21:51No, I've checked. There aren't any more cameras on Humber Street, Sarge.
21:54Okay. Well, the fact that he ditched his car could mean he's gone to ground.
21:57So, by setting fire to the car, he gets rid of Ben's body and any connection he has to the deal.
22:02Kezia, get a unit to do a quick drive-by of the area. Linton Barry remains our priority.
22:06Sir.
22:07Yes.
22:08Mickey.
22:09Sir.
22:10How's Jack doing?
22:13He don't know what to do himself. He's gone home.
22:17Just got back from the lab.
22:18They say although Ben Meadows' phone's badly burned, the SIM card should still give them some information.
22:22They'll get a contact as soon as they've got something.
22:24Well, that should give us some idea who Ben's been in contact with. Thanks, Tony.
22:27Sarge, I've just got the warrant to search Franco Osman's place.
22:29Right, you and Mickey get down there. Give the place a good going over.
22:32Look for weapons. He's still the main candidate for ambushing the deal last night.
22:40I'm DCI Meadows.
22:41Am I under arrest?
22:43You will be as soon as you're fit enough to be interviewed.
22:45In the meantime, I want you to tell me exactly what you remember.
22:49They pulled up in a car. Linton.
22:51Who else?
22:53Another guy, Ben.
22:56I'd just handed over the cash. Linton had given me the stuff and...
23:00She shouldn't have gone.
23:03I knew there was something up.
23:04Why?
23:06He changed the meeting, didn't he? Linton.
23:09Ben had it all set up and then ten minutes before, Linton calls me to change it.
23:13Linton called you, not Ben.
23:14Yeah.
23:15Linton.
23:28How was he?
23:29Who?
23:30The Governor.
23:32He just wanted to be alone.
23:37It's actually homes and gardens, isn't it?
23:41What's Franco been up to here, then, eh?
23:43Mickey?
23:46Love.
23:53Well, this is working, but it's locked.
23:55Okay, I need everyone out of here now, please!
23:58Listen, no one comes in here until forensics arrive, alright?
24:00Tom.
24:03So Franco's been in trouble?
24:04Yeah, listen, there's going to be common knowledge on the street by now.
24:07Franco's psychic died in Linton's deal.
24:09And what if we're not the only ones who think that Franco was behind the ambush?
24:14Okay, we'll just get back to base and find out who Franco's been in contact with before we find any more bodies.
24:21Who else knew about the change of location last night? Who else have you been talking to?
24:24Nobody. Me, Ben, Linton. That's it.
24:27So how do you know why they set up this ambush?
24:30Now, Travis is involved in this, isn't he? I know he is!
24:32He told me.
24:38When? Where?
24:39When? Where?
24:41On the way to the meet.
24:45Asked if the deal was all sorted.
24:49Travis called you from prison?
24:54Just wanted to make sure he knew the details.
25:00So I told him about the change of location.
25:05He knew?
25:10You have one new message.
25:13Mr Meadows, it's Petal. You gave me your card. Can you come to the flat? Linton's outside. He's banging on the door.
25:32Captain, what's going on here?
25:33I got a message from Petal. She said Linton was banging on the door.
25:38Then the call was cut off.
25:41He could still be here, Gav.
25:42Well, if he is, we nick him.
25:49Get down low!
25:51Ben.
25:54Ben.
25:57What the hell are you playing at, eh?
26:00What was in front of me?
26:03Why didn't you tell me what you heard, eh?
26:07It's my shoulder. It's not serious. I told you it was okay.
26:11It's treatment.
26:13I thought you were dead.
26:17Where's Petal?
26:18I don't know. She's not here.
26:21Why? Why are you here?
26:23She rang me. She said Linton was here.
26:25What? When?
26:26I don't know. About half an hour ago.
26:28Oh!
26:36He must have taken her.
26:37Why? Why would he do that?
26:39Gav.
26:45It's some other deal, is it?
26:47Yeah.
26:48I had her when the shooting started, so I jumped out of the car and ran.
26:51With the money?
26:53That's what Linton wants. That's why he's taken Petal.
26:55I thought it was the only way I was going to get Travis off my back.
26:58Just disappear, you know?
27:00What's Travis got on you?
27:02Now, tell me the truth.
27:06Look, it wasn't what he did.
27:07That's why he didn't let it happen. He kept me safe.
27:12That's why you knew he was going to run.
27:14I've got to contact Linton, please.
27:16I've got to let him have the cash before he does something.
27:18No, no.
27:19The only way you're going to sort this mess out is if we do it together.
27:24What do you want to do?
27:26Well, for a start, you're going to come back to the nick voluntarily.
27:31OK.
27:41OK, let's get you to an interview room.
27:44Jack.
27:46Give us a Petal's.
27:48Look, sir, I know you told me to stand by.
27:50Mickey's updated me about Petal going missing, but there have been other developments as well.
27:53The body in the car, it was Franco.
27:56We've got CCTV of Linton in the vicinity, so it looks like Linton had it killed.
28:00And Petal's in real danger.
28:01Sir, the lab managed to unlock Franco's mobile.
28:03It's the one from his flat, and they just emailed me the call log.
28:06Now, this number here, this triple zero number,
28:08I recognised it because it's the one that Ben Meadows used to contact Danny Travis in Long March.
28:12Travis has been in communication with Franco?
28:14Yeah, I sent him a text just yesterday.
28:16We thought that Franco was just trying to hide you out of the deal.
28:18But I think that Travis set this deal up in order to get Linton out of the way.
28:21Because his supply of drugs to the prison was running dry.
28:23And Linton's been holding back the profits.
28:25And Travis didn't like it.
28:26Well, in those circumstances, I can see Travis deciding to replace his man on the outside
28:30with someone who did as he was told.
28:31Franco.
28:32Right, let's interview Ben, and I want to get Linton in now
28:35before he has a chance to hurt anyone else.
28:39OK.
28:40Ben, and I want to get Linton in now before he has a chance to hurt anyone else.
28:45Ben?
28:46I'm Superintendent Heaton.
28:49You're sure this is the sort of thing that Linton would do?
28:51Take Petal as a way of getting you to hand over the cash?
28:53Why else would he do it?
28:55Dad, listen.
28:56I know Linton. You don't.
28:58He'll hurt Petal.
29:00He'll do it.
29:02He's probably been trying to contact me since last night,
29:04but I think I must have dropped my phone in his car.
29:06Yeah, you did. We found it in the wreckage after Linton burnt it up.
29:08So let me call him.
29:09So how do you explain you know he's got Petal?
29:13OK.
29:15OK, well, let me call Petal, then.
29:17Look, if she is with Linton, she'll probably have her mobile.
29:19I'll just make out as if I'm trying to find out where she is.
29:22He'll still be suspicious.
29:23I don't think so.
29:24Look at it from Linton's point of view.
29:25All he knows is that I disappeared with the cash last night,
29:27and he hasn't seen me since.
29:29Would you be willing to call Linton to see if he'll set up an exchange?
29:32Yes.
29:34Just let me meet him and hand over the cash.
29:36Linton won't have anything to gain from hurting Petal, not once he's got it.
29:40OK.
29:42Jack, you go with Ben, arrange the call.
29:44I'll get a team together.
29:46But I want Mickey acting as Ben's handler, all right?
29:50Sir.
29:54Look, you don't have to do this, you know.
29:55Linton's already killed two people.
29:57Now, even without him back up, we don't know what's going to happen.
30:00He'll guess that you've contacted us.
30:01He won't.
30:03You think that would be the last thing I'd do?
30:05You think that would be the last thing I'd do?
30:09Dad.
30:10I know I don't deserve it, but you need to trust me.
30:14I've got to do this, whatever the risk.
30:16I can't just leave Petal.
30:24Look, take a seat.
30:26Yeah.
30:27And don't forget, you're expecting Petal to answer, not Linton.
30:31And we've got an address of where you're going to meet, OK?
30:33OK.
30:36Right, then you're on time.
30:48Petal?
30:49It's Ben, where are you?
30:50She's with me.
30:51Where have you been? I've been looking for you.
30:53Where are you?
30:54My place, though.
30:55At a mate's house.
30:56Listen, then, where are you with Petal?
30:58You've got something of mine, I've got something of yours.
31:00You know what I'm talking about, yeah?
31:01You've got it, right?
31:02Yeah, the cash, yeah, man, but...
31:04Right, you bring it to me now.
31:06Corner of Stetson Road, in and out.
31:11No.
31:13I'm not standing out like that.
31:14Not after last night.
31:16The car park.
31:18The Martin storey on Doral Road, behind Lime's house.
31:21I'll meet you on the fifth floor.
31:23In and out.
31:24You'll bring Petal with you, yeah?
31:25Just make sure you've got what I want.
31:31Right, I'll talk to the others.
31:32Mickey will get you wired up.
31:37Right.
31:39OK, in just under an hour,
31:41Linton Barry will be arriving here,
31:43on the fifth floor of a multi-storey car park on Doral Road,
31:46just behind Lime's house.
31:47He'll be expecting to pick up a bag of money from Ben Meadows.
31:50In exchange, he's going to release Petal forward.
31:52Jack?
31:53Sir.
31:54Right, we're assuming that Linton Barry is armed and dangerous.
31:56So we're going to have two CO-19 units covering the exits,
31:59here and here.
32:00Then we'll have two sets of plainclothes officers acting as backup,
32:03here and here.
32:04Now, I'm going to be Bravo One,
32:06and I'll be parked on the fifth floor.
32:08Will Linton have Petal with him?
32:09We don't know at this stage.
32:10Stuart, have they managed to take a fix on Petal Ford's phone yet?
32:13Yes, sir, somewhere on the abelard,
32:14although they're not sure exactly where.
32:16OK, Stuart, I want you and Katie to get over there
32:18and keep your eyes open for Linton's gang coming and going.
32:20Keep it low-key, keep me informed.
32:22Now, when Barry arrives with Petal,
32:24Ben will hand over the money, we'll then move in,
32:26and we'll release her.
32:27If he doesn't come with Petal,
32:28we'll play it according to the circumstances.
32:30But whatever happens, I do not want to risk losing Linton Barry.
32:36Now, are you sure you want to go through with this?
32:38Yeah.
32:39Looks like I've joined the police after all.
32:42Look, just let things run their course, all right?
32:44And listen to Mickey, cos he knows what he's talking about.
32:48Thank you.
32:50Ready?
32:51Yeah.
32:52Ready?
32:53Yeah.
33:12Lima 1 to Lima 2, any sign of him yet?
33:16Negative.
33:22OK.
33:27Lima 1 to Lima 2, I've got an eyeball on target 1, Linton Barry.
33:31Also, another target as yet unidentified.
33:34So make your way east to Grosvenor House, I thought.
33:36Yeah, I'm on my way.
33:47Confirming the 1F eyeball.
33:53Lima 1 to Bravo 1,
33:55target Linton Barry is leaving the avalanche.
33:58He is alone, I repeat, he is alone.
34:00He's in a silver Mercedes, index Lima Delta 05,
34:03Delta Yankee Alpha.
34:05Bravo 1 to Lima 1, all received. Over.
34:09I don't like it that Linton's not bringing Petal with him.
34:12You think we should tell Ben, Governor?
34:14No, it's too much pressure for him.
34:16Lima 1 to Lima 2, you got an eyeball on target 2?
34:20Target 2 is heading along the 1F walkway of Grosvenor House.
34:24I think he's heading towards a flat.
34:26OK, we'll see if we can keep him in sight.
34:31He's stopped.
34:33Knocking.
34:35He's gone in.
34:36That's flat 140 on the 1F walkway of Grosvenor House.
34:39I repeat, flat 140 on the 1F of Grosvenor House.
34:43Lima 1 to Bravo 1,
34:45we might have a possible location for Petal Ford over India 1.
34:48Understood, Lima 1. Wait for my command.
34:50Yeah, I receive, Bravo 1.
34:52If Petal's there, we can arrest Linton as soon as he arrives.
34:54If. I don't want to take the chance
34:56that Linton could be tipped off before he gets here.
34:58Bravo 1 to Bravo 4, in position now.
35:01No sign as yet of target 1, Linton Barry. Over.
35:04All received. Over.
35:11Lima 1 to Bravo 1, we're in position outside the flat.
35:14When you'll come on.
35:15Roger, Lima 1. Stand by.
35:17Received, Captain.
35:21Bravo 1 from Bravo 4,
35:23target 1, Linton Barry, is approaching the car park.
35:26All right, take positions.
35:28Ben!
35:41Bravo 1 to all Bravo units, eyes on target.
35:48BEN SIGHS
35:54Where's Petal?
35:55She's all right. Where's the money?
35:57Look, Linton, I know I must have looked, man,
35:59and been running, but I just panicked, yeah?
36:01Yeah, you've had your eye on that cash for quite a while, haven't you?
36:03That's not how it was, man.
36:04All right, listen to me.
36:05Don't mess me about. Give me my money.
36:07Where's Petal? Why didn't you bring her?
36:09Money. Now.
36:11What did I talk to her?
36:13Well, Linton...
36:16Wait, wait, wait. See you out. See you out.
36:30All right. Let's start all over again.
36:33Get the money. Now.
36:36Now!
36:38All right, man. All right, it's in the boot.
36:42Give it to me!
36:48He's seen something.
36:56He's calling his men in on Petal.
36:58All Trojan units, go, go, go!
37:00It's a sow! Get rid of her!
37:02No! No!
37:04Get rid of her!
37:06Old boys, put your guns down!
37:10Leave me one to grab or what? Move in!
37:12Move in!
37:14Old boys, face down!
37:16Old boys, put your guns down!
37:22Put your hands on your head! Head above your head!
37:24OK.
37:26All right. Where's Petal?
37:28Old boys, face down!
37:30You're not going now!
37:32Straighten your arms! Stand up!
37:34Stand up!
37:36Straighten your arms and legs and stand up!
37:40Petal, I'm Sergeant Turner. Do you remember we spoke yesterday?
37:42Are you all right?
37:44Come on, Petal. It's OK. You're safe now.
37:48Petal Ford's safe.
37:50I think she's safe.
37:52She's safe.
37:56I think I want to retire now.
37:58That might be a good idea.
38:04Thank you.
38:10I'm showing Linton Barry Exhibit ST5,
38:12which is a photograph of flat number 98,
38:14Mayfield House, on the Abelard Estate,
38:16which was used to produce PCP.
38:18Your fingerprints were found in this flat.
38:20No comment.
38:22This is Exhibit RW2,
38:24a photograph of a bag of PCP,
38:26which is found on the wasteland.
38:28Your fingerprints were found on that bag.
38:30No comment.
38:32A photograph of a gun that was found in your possession
38:34when you were arrested.
38:36I'm sure it won't take ballistics very long
38:38to prove that that was the gun that killed
38:40Franco Osmond and Zeppo Clark.
38:44So, you're looking at possession
38:46with intent of supply
38:48and two counts of murder.
38:52What do you want?
38:54I want Travis.
38:56You're joking, right?
38:59I can have a word with the judge
39:01and make sure you're not in the same prison as him.
39:10OK, look.
39:12Travis doesn't like to keep the phone himself.
39:14He does want to get caught with it,
39:16so he has one of his boys hold it for him.
39:18Who?
39:22Tommy Ford.
39:25You all right?
39:27Yeah, we'll be OK, all right?
39:29We'll be now.
39:31I'm glad we did things your way.
39:33Thank you.
39:35So, have you got enough to put Linton away?
39:37Oh, more than enough.
39:39But there's something else.
39:41Yeah, I think we can get Travis.
39:43Only with my help.
39:45Look, Travis used a mobile phone
39:47to set up the deal on the ambush last night.
39:49And until now, we'd no idea where he stashed it.
39:51Right, now you know.
39:53Tommy's been hiding it for him.
39:55It's not going to be long before Travis realises what's been going on
39:57and he's going to want to get rid of that mobile.
39:59But when I talked to Tommy earlier,
40:01he was too scared to tell me anything about Travis.
40:05Well, you want me to go with you?
40:09After Long March.
40:25Ben!
40:45Ben!
40:47Yeah, man. It's never like that.
40:49What, Tommy?
40:51Do you remember me?
40:53What's going on?
40:55We need you to do us a favour.
40:59Now, you have in your possession a mobile phone, don't you?
41:01No.
41:03Well, we have a witness who says you do.
41:05Tommy, listen to my dad. He's telling the truth, OK?
41:07I can't say anything.
41:09Listen.
41:13Tommy,
41:15remember what I said when you asked me why I was talking to Travis?
41:17I said sometimes you've got to do things you don't want to
41:19just to make things right, yeah?
41:21Yeah.
41:23Yeah, I know,
41:25but
41:27if Travis finds out...
41:29We'll say that we traced the phone.
41:31And Pet will say for me.
41:35I can't.
41:37Tommy, if you help us,
41:39I'll make sure you get a transfer
41:41out of Long March.
41:43Yeah.
41:51Have Travis moved?
41:53I just thought we'd be quicker than him.
42:03You just can't stay away, can you?
42:07I believe this is yours.
42:09Mine? No way.
42:11Look at the DNA, fingerprints,
42:13record of the calls you've made.
42:15I'd say you're in life a conspiracy to murder,
42:17dealing a class A drug.
42:19I think you're looking at about 20 years.
42:23It's over. What if?
42:25We've also arrested Linton Barry.
42:27Two counts of murder, possession with intent to supply.
42:29He's off the Abelard.
42:31You've got what you wanted.
42:33And Ben doesn't owe you a thing.
42:35Nine out of ten come back within a year.
42:37Not this time.
42:41Yeah.
42:53Serious about her, aren't you?
42:55Yeah. Yeah, serious enough, yeah.
42:57It's a long way.
42:59Yeah, Pet all wants to be able to visit Tommy.
43:01Anyway,
43:03I think it's better this way.
43:05Look,
43:07I know I haven't always been as...
43:09OK.
43:11Look, you just remember where I am this time, eh?
43:15I'll be seeing you.
43:25Look, I know what you did was right.
43:39Everything OK?
43:41Yeah, yeah, fine, yeah.
43:43Hey, thanks for today.
43:45No worries.
43:47Hey, listen, there's an attempted burglary on Malkin Road.
43:49It's a newsagent.
43:51Kezia's dealing with it now.
43:53Anybody hurt?
43:55No, I don't think so.
43:57To be honest, it doesn't exactly sound like the crime of the century,
43:59so if you fancy giving it a miss, I'll buy you a pint.
44:01Cat and sparrow?
44:03What can I do with a pint?
44:05Well, let's call up the newsagents first, eh?
44:07You've been hanging around me too long, you have.
44:17Next time on The Build...
44:19You all right there, mate?
44:21We've got Jason Devlin locked up,
44:23but he's still got the sway to pull something like this off.
44:27V1 bar's burning down.
44:29You're kidding, mate.
44:37V1 bar's burning down.
44:39You're kidding, mate.
