00:00:00Hello?
00:00:25Aileen Daly?
00:00:26Speaking.
00:00:27My name's Marion.
00:00:28I apologise in advance for calling out of the blue, but I wanted to make you aware that...
00:00:31Hold on, hold on.
00:00:32There's someone at the door.
00:00:33Yeah, I'll hold.
00:00:43Can I help you?
00:00:44Good afternoon.
00:00:45We're from East Sussex Water.
00:00:47We're investigating a leak in the area and would like to do some pressure readings if
00:00:50that's okay.
00:00:51Er...
00:00:52Alright, come in.
00:00:53I've...
00:00:54I've got someone on the phone.
00:00:55It won't take a minute.
00:00:57Hello, I'm back.
00:00:58Now, what's all this about?
00:00:59In a word, Spain.
00:01:00We have a portfolio of flats and villas that are simply unrivaled in value, bill quality...
00:01:01My last passport expired five years ago.
00:01:02What would I want with a...
00:01:03a flat in Spain?
00:01:04Oh.
00:01:05Oh.
00:01:06Oh.
00:01:07Oh.
00:01:08Oh.
00:01:09Oh.
00:01:10Oh.
00:01:11Oh.
00:01:12Oh.
00:01:13Oh.
00:01:14Oh.
00:01:15Oh.
00:01:16Oh.
00:01:17Oh.
00:01:18Oh.
00:01:19Oh.
00:01:20Oh.
00:01:21Oh.
00:01:22Oh.
00:01:23Oh.
00:01:24Oh.
00:01:26I thought you were checking the water pressure.
00:01:49I know that look.
00:01:51Yeah, it's, er...
00:01:53It's about robbering Lavinia Gardens.
00:01:55A uniformer passed onto a major crime.
00:01:57Victim?
00:01:58Aileen Daly, 66.
00:02:00She was tortured and may not survive.
00:02:03Who raised the alarm?
00:02:04Her brother, Gavin Daly.
00:02:05He normally speaks to her every day, but he was in Paris on business.
00:02:09Called the police when he failed to reach her.
00:02:11Tortured?
00:02:12Punched.
00:02:13Repeatedly.
00:02:14And there's evidence of cigarette burns.
00:02:17Listen, you've had a long shift,
00:02:19and you're going to need all the sleep you can get with that new baby on the way.
00:02:22I've got this one.
00:02:23Where is she? Sussex Central?
00:02:25Er, yeah.
00:02:26Right, I'm going to go and see if I can talk to her.
00:02:28I'll meet you at Lavinia Gardens.
00:02:30So one of them did the talking.
00:02:32He was Irish.
00:02:35Terry, maybe.
00:02:37Not Dublin.
00:02:39What about the other one?
00:02:40Darker.
00:02:42He...
00:02:43He hurt me.
00:02:47I was on the phone.
00:02:49You were on the phone when the men arrived?
00:02:51Yeah.
00:02:52Did you end the call when you went to the door?
00:02:55No.
00:02:56So you stayed on the line while you answered the door?
00:02:59Stupid...
00:03:01cold call.
00:03:03Is there anything else you can think of
00:03:05that might help us identify them?
00:03:07Anything at all that you can remember?
00:03:09I'm sorry to pressure you, Hayley.
00:03:14One of them...
00:03:16his... his glove.
00:03:18His glove?
00:03:20Just for a second.
00:03:23He took his glove off for a second?
00:03:25Yes.
00:03:26Where did that happen, Hayley?
00:03:28Where was that?
00:03:31Phone.
00:03:33He took his glove off to use the phone?
00:03:40Hayley?
00:03:41Excuse me, can you give us some space?
00:03:42Hayley?
00:03:43Can you hear me?
00:03:44Hayley?
00:03:45Can you check the monitor?
00:03:46Hayley?
00:03:47Whether that means an end to the selling off
00:03:49of Brighton School playing fields remains to be seen.
00:03:53That's it from me and the Look South team.
00:03:55We'll be back with you again tomorrow.
00:04:00There probably is some level of corruption,
00:04:02but I'm actually digging more into the sheer incompetence
00:04:05of his tenure.
00:04:06In a way, it's more shocking, more damning.
00:04:09Sounds good.
00:04:10Almost feel sorry for him with you on his tail.
00:04:12I'll let you get on. See you tomorrow.
00:04:14Thanks, Molly.
00:04:18I need to get together before tomorrow.
00:04:20What?
00:04:22Sarah?
00:04:23It's nothing, OK? It's nothing.
00:04:26You have to do better than that, Sarah.
00:04:28I appreciate your concern, I do.
00:04:32But if you breathe a word of this,
00:04:33it will come between us, and I would hate that.
00:04:48DOOR OPENS
00:05:06Detective Superintendent Grace, can I help you?
00:05:08Yeah, I'm Gavin Daly.
00:05:10I was told I'd find my sister here.
00:05:12This is my son, Lewis.
00:05:14I thought you were in Paris, Mr Daly.
00:05:16Yeah, I came straight from Gatwick.
00:05:18Dr Andrews, this is Gavin Daly, Aileen's brother.
00:05:23Tell me everything, spare me nothing.
00:05:25She has compound skull fractures
00:05:27and a lesion to the cervical area of her spinal cord.
00:05:29Caused by?
00:05:30Caused by blunt force trauma to the spine.
00:05:33It's likely to leave her paraplegic.
00:05:36My God.
00:05:37Excuse me.
00:05:40I'm sorry.
00:05:41Not half as sorry as I am.
00:05:43Of course, sir, I understand.
00:05:45Oh, you do, do you?
00:05:46Well, you tell me what you understand, then.
00:05:48Do get off, I'll call you.
00:05:56We will do everything in our power to find the people who did this.
00:06:00Everything, I promise you that.
00:06:02I have to attend the crime scene.
00:06:04If you need anything, Mr Daly, anything at all, please call me.
00:06:15Please.
00:06:34It's Gabby.
00:06:36I'm here, Aileen.
00:06:38Did they take it?
00:06:40Oh, no, it doesn't matter.
00:06:41Only you matter.
00:06:43All we had left of him.
00:06:47Remember the lad?
00:06:49Watch the numbers.
00:06:51Whatever it meant, we failed.
00:06:53We never solved the riddle, and we never found Pa.
00:06:56You tried your best.
00:06:58Yeah, and got nowhere.
00:06:59He made his own mistakes.
00:07:01Do you know what today is?
00:07:04Yeah.
00:07:05So how can it be a coincidence?
00:07:09How?
00:07:14You're a great son.
00:07:18And you've been a great brother.
00:07:20You are a fighter, Aileen Daly.
00:07:24You're gonna survive this.
00:07:26And you will see the bastards responsible suffer.
00:07:29I promise you that.
00:07:43Sorry.
00:07:58All done here, sir?
00:07:59Okay, thanks.
00:08:04So, looks like a fair bit's missing.
00:08:07We need to find out what, exactly, before they try and shift him.
00:08:12CCTV?
00:08:13No, no, Dre.
00:08:15But we're canvassing neighbours,
00:08:16seeing if anyone's had any similar break-ins.
00:08:18Well, tell them to go back a bit.
00:08:20Sometimes the smart ones wait two, three years
00:08:22before hitting the same street.
00:08:24Like crop rotation.
00:08:26Fallow fields are fertile field.
00:08:28Yeah, well, they're definitely pros,
00:08:31and pros always plan.
00:08:35I'm gonna whip out some billboards,
00:08:37see if anyone's clocked an unfamiliar vehicle in the past few days.
00:08:42Nick, get the lab to pay particular attention to the phones.
00:08:47Aileen said one of them took off his glove,
00:08:49and it was something to do with a phone.
00:08:51Yeah, but it could be his own phone.
00:08:53Could've been.
00:08:55In which case, there's no help at all.
00:09:00On the other hand...
00:09:11DOOR SLAMS SHUT
00:09:35I got your voicemail.
00:09:41How is she?
00:09:42There's permanent damage to her spine.
00:09:45I don't know where Sigur is.
00:09:47Dad's beside himself.
00:09:49If she dies, will you inherit anything?
00:09:54How could you ask that?
00:09:55Molly saw these at work today.
00:09:57It's a bit awkward.
00:10:01What did you say?
00:10:04What could I say?
00:10:11DOOR CREAKS
00:10:20It's quite a collection.
00:10:25Narrow focus, eh?
00:10:27East End villains of the 50s and 60s.
00:10:30All read multiple times.
00:10:32A bit obsessive.
00:10:34Wonder how I got started.
00:10:37Dear Sir or Madam,
00:10:39in the many years I've been visiting this area,
00:10:41I have never ceased to take satisfaction
00:10:43from the pleasure people gain
00:10:45in realising money from old, often forgotten items.
00:10:50Sounds like a knocker boy.
00:10:51A what?
00:10:52A sort of rag and bone man with benefits.
00:10:54Sounds terrifying.
00:10:56No, a knocker boy.
00:10:57He charms his way in,
00:10:58clocks the valuables, makes a lowball offer.
00:11:01Maybe he'll have a cup of tea, but he doesn't push it,
00:11:04cos his plan B is actually his plan A,
00:11:07to sell the intel to professional burglars,
00:11:09takes a cut of the booty, no risk.
00:11:13Alvin Morris Smallbone.
00:11:15Smallbone?
00:11:19AMS.
00:11:20He's lying low after assaulting Larry Brooker, right?
00:11:23Even his parole officer can't find him.
00:11:26Is he daft enough to break cover?
00:11:28No, he's not daft, but he's arrogant.
00:11:30The first time I nicked him,
00:11:31I found a shedload of criminal contacts in the antiques.
00:11:35Excuse me, sir. Sorry, you can't be here.
00:11:37This is a crime scene.
00:11:38It's all right, Glenn.
00:11:39This is Aileen's brother, Gavin Daly.
00:11:42How's she, eh?
00:11:43What do you think?
00:11:44She's up on her bed doing a jig.
00:11:47What about the safe?
00:12:02Mr Daly?
00:12:05The watch.
00:12:06They took my father's watch.
00:12:22I guided Aileen with her purchases,
00:12:24all documented for insurance purposes.
00:12:27The watch was of Claremont Leroux,
00:12:29one of only three left in the world,
00:12:31worth two million plus change.
00:12:33Not insured for one reason only.
00:12:36Because if you register it, it becomes a target.
00:12:39Yeah.
00:12:40So, given that,
00:12:43who knew it was here?
00:12:47Excuse me.
00:12:54I'm afraid Aileen's condition has worsened.
00:12:56We'll have you driven back to the hospital.
00:12:59All right, boss. See you later.
00:13:03Not short of a bobble or two, is he?
00:13:05Good to know he made it.
00:13:07Antique clocks and watches.
00:13:09Yeah, he's got two shops in the Lanes
00:13:11and a few more premises in London, apparently.
00:13:14Roy?
00:13:17Followed up on AMS valuables
00:13:19and the mobile on leaflets at Burnham,
00:13:21but it's pinging a mast on the Drakefield estate.
00:13:23That's a huge area.
00:13:24Yeah, so a cross-reference window.
00:13:27I got a hit.
00:13:28On-off girlfriend, Donna Grant.
00:13:30Good work, Bella. Come on, let's go.
00:13:32Are you sure about this?
00:13:33I mean, why would he leave a flyer in the house he plans to rob?
00:13:36Loads of reasons.
00:13:38All right, well, right now, I'll settle for one.
00:13:40OK, she takes the flyer to be polite or to get rid of him,
00:13:43then she stuffs it in a drawer and forgets about it.
00:13:45OK, so it's not that you're fixated with him or anything, no?
00:13:48We should have backup.
00:13:51Recognise this?
00:13:53AMS.
00:13:55Alvin Morris Smallbone.
00:14:00Oh, what's going on?
00:14:03There's nothing to worry about.
00:14:05It's just a bit of a mess.
00:14:07It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:09It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:11It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:13It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:15It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:17It's a bit of a mess.
00:14:19There's nothing going on.
00:14:21It's just a bit of common or garden harassment.
00:14:23Isn't that right, Roy?
00:14:25Does anyone distribute these leaflets on your behalf?
00:14:27No, because thanks to you,
00:14:30I lack the wherewithal to employ assistants.
00:14:32So you personally distributed this leaflet
00:14:35to Aileen Daley of 68 Lavinia Gardens?
00:14:38Guilty.
00:14:39You're earning a buck, or try to.
00:14:41Guilty, at best,
00:14:43of selling on information to professional housebreakers
00:14:46who burned a 66-year-old woman with cigarettes,
00:14:49caused permanent damage to her spine,
00:14:51and left her for dead.
00:14:54Flat, phone, car, laptop, bank accounts.
00:14:57I'm getting warrants for the lot.
00:14:59Somewhere there is a link, and I will find it,
00:15:01and I will tie you to this.
00:15:03He's obsessed with me.
00:15:05Hmm?
00:15:07Obsessed.
00:15:08Alvin?
00:15:09In the meantime, Alvin Smallbone,
00:15:11I am arresting you on suspicion of the assault of Larry Brooker.
00:15:14Let's go.
00:15:2020, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26...
00:15:39Doors closing.
00:15:40Lift going down.
00:15:43I'm touched I'm still so important to you.
00:15:47Surprised, too.
00:15:50All with a new lady
00:15:53and a bun in the oven.
00:15:57Cider again.
00:16:00Doors opening.
00:16:01It's a full house, I'm afraid.
00:16:06Help me!
00:16:07Lift going down.
00:16:12Help me!
00:16:17Doors opening.
00:16:22Doors closing.
00:16:23Lift going down.
00:16:34Doors opening.
00:16:35Doors closing.
00:16:41We're on the stairs.
00:17:02Don't move!
00:17:06Car park.
00:17:09Stop! Stop!
00:17:21Alvin, get in!
00:17:36Back up.
00:17:41Aileen Daly died at 1754 this evening,
00:17:44and now this is a murder inquiry.
00:17:46Smallbone put this team together, I have no doubt,
00:17:49so we need to find him before he leaves Brighton.
00:17:51The driver? Any kind of description would help.
00:17:53They had their hood up.
00:17:55Nothing from CCTV?
00:17:56No, not yet.
00:17:57But if you know where the cameras are, then...
00:17:59How about forensics from the house?
00:18:01As per your request,
00:18:02all phones are being printed and swabbed as a priority.
00:18:04Same goes for the area where she was tied up
00:18:06and the cigarettes recovered from the floor.
00:18:08Everything suggests this was a targeted robbery,
00:18:11as in the stolen paintings and antiques were a sideshow.
00:18:15The main prize on offer here was a Clem-on-La Rue watch
00:18:18valued north of two million pounds.
00:18:20You said it wasn't insured?
00:18:21Correct, but Smallbone seems to have known
00:18:23that it was in the safe.
00:18:24Yeah, but even if the antiques were secondary to the watch,
00:18:26you'd still have to shift them.
00:18:28Yeah, then he's smart enough to know
00:18:30that he can't do that openly.
00:18:32Well, items will be registered, flags will be raised.
00:18:34So what are his options?
00:18:36Arrange for private buyers off the grid?
00:18:38Either that or getting the antiques out of the country.
00:18:40Liaise with ports and airports.
00:18:42Anyone with a link to the antiques trade needs a second look.
00:18:46Aileen took a call from a Crescent Cove open villas
00:18:49right before a killer's knocked on the door.
00:18:51And she said they stayed on the line
00:18:52while she let the two men in the house.
00:18:54Right, so they might have overheard something.
00:18:56We'll check it out first thing.
00:18:57Good.
00:19:01Hey.
00:19:03None of the prints or DNA samples you recovered
00:19:06are scoring a match on the database.
00:19:08They swapped all the phones?
00:19:10Handsets plus base units times three.
00:19:12And Aileen's mobile.
00:19:14Sorry, boss.
00:19:31Norman.
00:19:33Any news on Smallbone?
00:19:35Well, Uniform have thrown the net over his stomping ground.
00:19:38They're in pubs and flats, they're pulling cars.
00:19:41If he's there, it will get him.
00:19:43OK, keep on it.
00:20:00♪♪
00:20:10♪♪
00:20:20♪♪
00:20:31Nick, I'm at Lavinia Gardens.
00:20:33I need you to come by, pick up some evidence
00:20:35and run it straight to the lab, OK?
00:20:37Yeah, no worries, boss.
00:20:38Give me a half an hour.
00:20:41♪♪
00:20:51♪♪
00:21:01♪♪
00:21:11♪♪
00:21:22Right.
00:21:26Next time, come in a bloody marked car.
00:21:32Really?
00:21:37Look, I'm very sorry about Aileen, Mr Daly,
00:21:40but would you mind telling me what you're doing here?
00:21:43Hoping they come back for the rest.
00:21:45Let us do our job, eh?
00:21:46Your man Branson said there'd be regular patrols,
00:21:48but in the time I've been here, it was just you.
00:21:50Well, I suppose pleading budget cuts won't help, will it?
00:21:54Well, on the plus side, they said I was lucky to have you on this.
00:21:59Well, I'd better start living up to that, hadn't I?
00:22:01Let's start with the watch.
00:22:03It's not about the financial loss, is it?
00:22:05Well, two million quid's a lot of money.
00:22:07You never insured it, you never repaired it,
00:22:09and you never wore it.
00:22:10Shall we go outside?
00:22:12My sister never let me smoke in here,
00:22:15and the sentimental side of me
00:22:17likes to think she might be watching.
00:22:20DOORBELL RINGS
00:22:25My pa was apprenticed to a watchmaker called Barlow in Stepneywick.
00:22:33Good night, Mr Barlow.
00:22:35Grumpy old sod.
00:22:37He never thought much of us.
00:22:40I was seven years old and fascinated by that watch.
00:22:43I wouldn't go to sleep at night until pa had shown it me.
00:22:47Worked every time,
00:22:49until the night our lives were torn apart by Ian Padmore.
00:22:52President! President!
00:22:57Listen, Gavin, promise me something.
00:23:00Whatever happens, you'll look after Hayley.
00:23:02Come on!
00:23:04I need you to promise.
00:23:06Promise.
00:23:07President!
00:23:14Don't hurt them.
00:23:17You got something to say, lad?
00:23:19We're on the clock, boss.
00:23:22We are, Ellis, in every sense.
00:23:25Come on.
00:23:28We are, Ellis, in every sense.
00:23:30Come on.
00:23:43Come on, Ellis!
00:23:45That night the watchmakers was robbed.
00:23:48Barlow was killed and pa disappeared.
00:23:51I was convinced he'd come back to us.
00:23:54But me and Hayley were packed off to Brighton
00:23:56to live with pa's sister, Vi.
00:23:58Hurry up!
00:23:59Even as we headed for the train,
00:24:01I couldn't believe he'd just abandoned us.
00:24:03Pa will join us soon.
00:24:05If he doesn't, I'll go fetch him myself.
00:24:08Watch the numbers.
00:24:13If they come for you, don't hesitate.
00:24:16Use it.
00:24:18Hey!
00:24:25Gavin!
00:24:32Why did he give you this?
00:24:34I don't know, auntie boy.
00:24:40What else did he give you?
00:24:51It's pa's.
00:24:54Come on!
00:25:01Come on!
00:25:14So when Ellis told you to watch the numbers,
00:25:16he meant 158?
00:25:18And the numbers on the broken watch.
00:25:21See?
00:25:22He set it to just after 4 o'clock on the 26th of March.
00:25:25That wasn't the date my pa was taken.
00:25:28Did you know what this meant?
00:25:29No.
00:25:31Not then, not now.
00:25:36Not for me, thank you.
00:25:38Oh, come on, superintendent.
00:25:40I lost my sister. Don't make me drink alone.
00:25:45Get a small one.
00:25:52I saw all the books about the East End villains.
00:25:56Yeah, me and Aileen.
00:25:58We never stopped looking.
00:26:00Look, the realist in me knows that Padmore killed pa
00:26:03or had his men do it.
00:26:05I mean, of course he had to go. He'd seen them murder his boss.
00:26:08But now I think, no, why did this lad Ellis come after me, eh?
00:26:12Take that risk.
00:26:14Leave me those clues.
00:26:16Yeah, if they didn't mean something, read somewhere.
00:26:19Yeah, but...
00:26:22If he survived that night...
00:26:25I mean, if he...
00:26:27If he got away...
00:26:30Then in some ways he abandoned you.
00:26:33He made a conscious choice to leave you behind.
00:26:38That's very perceptive, superintendent.
00:26:41Do you have experience in that department?
00:26:45Sorry?
00:26:46Abandonment.
00:26:48We're not talking about me, Mr Dainey.
00:26:54My part was taken on the 6th of April, 1964.
00:26:5960 years ago to the day.
00:27:01There's not a bone in my body that thinks that's a coincidence.
00:27:04What about the men who took your father?
00:27:07Any of them still alive?
00:27:11Boss?
00:27:14Back in a minute.
00:27:19Thanks, Nick.
00:27:21Oh, anything on Smallbone?
00:27:25Spoke to Aileen's housekeeper, though, Nancy.
00:27:28According to her, Aileen and her brother had a big row the day before yesterday.
00:27:32And she said he's the one who kicked out the spindle on the stairs.
00:27:38Okay, I want you to pull some files from the Met archives.
00:27:42The abduction of Brendan Daley and the murder of Max Barlow
00:27:46in Stepney Wick on the 6th of April, 1964.
00:27:5160 years ago today?
00:27:53Yes, it is.
00:28:05Nancy's run her mouth off, has she?
00:28:07I thought she might.
00:28:09Whereas you were happy for us to believe this happened during the break-in.
00:28:13Siblings quarrel, storming the teacup.
00:28:16What was the argument about?
00:28:18Nothing.
00:28:19It was enough for you to lose your temper.
00:28:22There's a fine line between protecting someone and smothering them.
00:28:26But it had nothing to do with Aileen's murder.
00:28:29So what was the flashpoint?
00:28:35She said something cruel and I overreacted.
00:28:44She said if it wasn't for me, she could have had a husband and children.
00:28:49Life.
00:29:13Oh, God.
00:29:43I love you.
00:30:14Dad, you're taking too long.
00:30:16Give me five minutes, guys.
00:30:18The hospital want me to work through till ten.
00:30:20Tuesday's from next month.
00:30:21Ten?
00:30:22It's the cups.
00:30:23Tuesdays are a load of...
00:30:24Excuse me. Family friendly, please.
00:30:26OK, well, when do you need to decide by?
00:30:28Oh, so you have already.
00:30:30Well, I can tell them I've had second thoughts.
00:30:32No, no, honestly, look, it's fine. Look, you're in demand, Harry.
00:30:34It's great.
00:30:36Snaps.
00:30:38The extra money will come in handy, too.
00:30:40Even if we end up spending it on a nanny instead of a new house.
00:30:43Look, we don't need a nanny, OK?
00:30:45We've got this.
00:30:47You'll be up to your eyes, Detective Inspector.
00:30:55Nick dropped these over last night.
00:31:03Don't tell me you've read the lot.
00:31:05Skim read a couple.
00:31:07Kind of stopped the unpacking in its tracks.
00:31:10I'm surprised I hadn't heard of the Padmores.
00:31:13Just as bad as the Craves and the Richardsons.
00:31:15Really?
00:31:17Hmm.
00:31:18Go on.
00:31:19This guy, Ian Padmore,
00:31:21he was a sadistic gang leader and slum landlord.
00:31:24He would drive up the rents and then force his indebted tenants into criminality.
00:31:28The young women would typically become prostitutes
00:31:31and the young men would be forced to rob and steal or face serious consequences.
00:31:40So Gavin's dad was one of many.
00:31:44Brendan Daly was forced to rob the watchmakers where he worked or face eviction.
00:31:50He likely died defending the man he was supposed to rob.
00:31:53Hmm.
00:31:54They never found his body.
00:31:55Oh, God.
00:31:57A watch.
00:31:59That's all his son and daughter have to remember him by.
00:32:05Listen.
00:32:06You haven't seen a silver link bracelet anywhere, have you?
00:32:11Yours?
00:32:12Sandy's.
00:32:13It seemed to disappear from the jewellery box when I was packing up.
00:32:18Not guilty.
00:32:21But I will keep an eye out.
00:32:29Okay.
00:33:00So, how was old man Daly?
00:33:02I hear single moat was being served, histories were shared.
00:33:05Man's just lost his sister. He wanted some company.
00:33:08Ain't nothing wrong with tap water, Roy.
00:33:10And tell Nick that no one likes a gassing fish wife.
00:33:18I'm sorry.
00:33:19I'm sorry.
00:33:20I'm sorry.
00:33:21I'm sorry.
00:33:22I'm sorry.
00:33:23I'm sorry.
00:33:24I'm sorry.
00:33:25I'm sorry.
00:33:26I'm sorry.
00:33:27I'm sorry.
00:33:29Open Villas.
00:33:30What's that all about?
00:33:31Swingers of Southern Spain unite.
00:33:33Well, it looks like their website's just a bloody timeshare company.
00:33:36My grandad got a place and sent us after me nan died.
00:33:39Oh, yeah?
00:33:40Happy ending?
00:33:41Happy-ish.
00:33:42Died of a stroke in a jacuzzi.
00:33:44Well, that's my plan after you cark it.
00:33:47Oh, well, if the microwave passed, he's killed you first.
00:33:51Um, I'm DS Norman Potting.
00:33:54Do you work here, miss?
00:33:55Oh, Marion.
00:33:56Marion DuPont, yeah.
00:33:57Crescent Cove, Open Villas.
00:33:59Tell me, does the name Aileen Daly mean anything to you?
00:34:02Maybe, yeah.
00:34:03Hang on.
00:34:06Yeah, I called her yesterday morning at 9.02am.
00:34:09Do your records say anything else?
00:34:11Er...
00:34:13Yeah.
00:34:14She wasn't interested.
00:34:17Made me laugh, actually.
00:34:18She said her passport expired years ago,
00:34:20so why would she want a flat in Spain?
00:34:22Was there anything else unusual or memorable about the call?
00:34:26She was interrupted by someone at the door.
00:34:28I just waited and we finished the call.
00:34:30While you were waiting, what could you hear on the other end?
00:34:32I could hear a man's voice, maybe.
00:34:35I don't know.
00:34:36Could you hear what he was saying, or Aileen's response?
00:34:38No, sorry.
00:34:42Then something happened to her.
00:34:46No prints or DNA so far.
00:34:49Despite the savagery of the attack,
00:34:51they were cautious, controlled...
00:34:53Here.
00:34:58What is it?
00:35:00These coin-shaped bruises
00:35:02are almost covered by the bruising from the stamping and the kicking,
00:35:05but the uniform shape and size suggests an old-school knuckle duster.
00:35:11Well, it's not a fingerprint.
00:35:12It's a rarely seen weapon these days.
00:35:15Rare enough to cross-reference with other assaults.
00:35:18Only one way to find out.
00:35:48Oh, God.
00:36:18I'm sorry.
00:36:44You're in antiques, right?
00:36:46Like your dad.
00:36:48Does the name Alvin Smallbone mean anything to you?
00:36:52He's at the rougher end of the trade.
00:36:55Oh.
00:36:56When was the last time you saw your aunt?
00:36:59Dad's birthday, right?
00:37:01About a month ago.
00:37:04Sound about right, Sarah? A month?
00:37:06Yeah.
00:37:08So you weren't in the habit of just popping in to see Aileen?
00:37:11I mean, she was only down the road.
00:37:14Not regularly.
00:37:16No.
00:37:18The truth is...
00:37:19And jump in if you think this is unfair.
00:37:22The truth is Gavin doted on his sister to a fault.
00:37:26Didn't leave much room for the rest of us.
00:37:28They were very close growing up.
00:37:31Mum, God rest her soul, used to say that
00:37:33Dad was Aileen's brother first
00:37:35and Mum's husband second.
00:37:39That must have been tough.
00:37:45Thank you for coming in person, Superintendent.
00:37:47Not at all.
00:37:50Broken windows.
00:37:52Oh.
00:37:53That was...
00:37:55We had a thing with some kids.
00:37:57They thought we'd run over one of their bikes.
00:37:59It's all there sorted now.
00:38:02Well, thanks for your help.
00:38:06Bella, I need you to run background on
00:38:09Lewis Daly and Sarah Courtney.
00:38:11Has Lewis ever crossed paths with Smallbone
00:38:13in a business capacity?
00:38:15And did Sarah cover his court case, et cetera?
00:38:18There's a dentist opposite their house.
00:38:20See how far back their CCTV goes.
00:38:24How are we doing on the Padmore gang? Anything?
00:38:26Padmore and his men went down in 73 for ten years.
00:38:29Padmore died in 90.
00:38:31Two of the other ones died.
00:38:33One of them emigrated to Australia,
00:38:34leaving Clive Ellis.
00:38:36Clive watched the numbers, Ellis.
00:38:38Yeah, and he vanished off the face of the earth in 73,
00:38:41which is interesting because
00:38:43the name of the key prosecution witness against Padmore
00:38:46is redacted in the court files.
00:38:50Witness protection?
00:38:51Yeah, I reckon.
00:38:52But Ellis helped Gavin, right?
00:38:55He gave him the watch, he gave him the clues.
00:38:57That's debatable.
00:38:58Those clues have plagued him his whole life.
00:39:01Yeah, but still, why would he come after him now?
00:39:04After all these years?
00:39:05I don't know.
00:39:06We need to find Ellis.
00:39:09Here you are.
00:39:10One of our best sellers.
00:39:13Mid-century replica.
00:39:15Hmm?
00:39:16Perfect for your place.
00:39:17Tables to match.
00:39:24There's just no part of me that looks at that and thinks
00:39:26I'm looking at something 50, 60 years old.
00:39:29Well...
00:39:32You're not.
00:39:33Then how is it a replica?
00:39:35Sorry.
00:39:38One sec.
00:39:41Dad.
00:39:42Why is Mill Park Street closed when it's bloody nearly lunchtime?
00:39:45What?
00:39:46Look, I turn a blind eye to your moonlighting on your latest venture,
00:39:49but I do expect you to earn the generous weekly salary I pay you.
00:39:53The suit was supposed to open.
00:39:54I've had this meeting in the diary...
00:40:01Shit.
00:40:03Shit.
00:40:04Shit.
00:40:11Shit!
00:40:32Shit.
00:41:02Shit.
00:41:32Shit.
00:41:43Roy.
00:41:44We've found Smallbone.
00:41:48No honour amongst thieves, then, eh?
00:41:52Two things, and I'll let you rest.
00:41:54Who tortured and killed Aileen Daly.
00:41:56What was the other thing?
00:41:57I'm guessing the same person who put you in here.
00:42:00Names.
00:42:01Alvin, we can't protect you if we don't know who from.
00:42:04I never set foot in that house.
00:42:07So you didn't knock,
00:42:08you just pushed a flyer through a letterbox.
00:42:10Perhaps she was out.
00:42:11Or perhaps she was in,
00:42:13and she invited you in, made you a cup of tea,
00:42:16but then rebuffed your kind offer to turn her many valuables into cash
00:42:21and kind of forced your hand.
00:42:23Know this.
00:42:25That house is being swabbed and printed from top to bottom as we speak,
00:42:29so if we find the minutest trace of your DNA...
00:42:32OK.
00:42:34She wasn't out.
00:42:36She did invite me in.
00:42:38There's lots of good stuff, Roy.
00:42:40Some of it seriously good.
00:42:45It's not my scene.
00:42:47Hurting old ladies.
00:42:48So, what, you passed on the intel to someone a bit less scrupulous, is that it?
00:42:52And that's all I did.
00:42:53I need names, Alvin.
00:42:55Or I swear to God...
00:42:57you will go down for this.
00:42:59The planning, the torture, the murder.
00:43:01Tudor.
00:43:03Frank Tudor.
00:43:05No.
00:43:07Piss off.
00:43:09I'll track down this Frank Tudor.
00:43:10Mean anything to you?
00:43:11Maybe.
00:43:12Old-school villain from Hove, I think.
00:43:17Nick, what have you got?
00:43:18Yeah, you were spot on, boss.
00:43:19I've got a print off the phone socket at Aileen's house.
00:43:22It's a match for convicted robber Sean Barnes.
00:43:25Do you have an address?
00:43:26We do.
00:43:27Council records put him in a rented cottage on the down for the past two years.
00:43:32Two years.
00:43:54Police!
00:43:55Sean Barnes, we have a warrant for your arrest.
00:44:03Police!
00:44:09Okay, Mr. Tudor, why don't you tell me about Sean Barnes?
00:44:13Never heard of him.
00:44:14Alvin Smallbone has implicated you in the torture and murder of Aileen Daly.
00:44:19We know Barnes was there, and your CV suggests that you're more than capable.
00:44:25Ten years ago, maybe, I'd have been up for the robbery.
00:44:28But I'm too old for it now.
00:44:30I don't need the drama.
00:44:31So what? Smallbone's lying, is he?
00:44:34He told me the basics. I was interested for about five minutes.
00:44:37Okay. So what changed?
00:44:40He said the target was Aileen Daly, the sister of Gavin.
00:44:45And that somehow put you off?
00:44:50Gavin Daly's no man to cross.
00:44:54Okay, so...
00:44:56if word got out that we'd pulled you in,
00:45:00in connection with Aileen's murder, and somehow Gavin heard about it...
00:45:05What do you want?
00:45:07What have you got?
00:45:09Between us, of course.
00:45:14They steal watches, timepieces, high value.
00:45:19I'll take that as a yes, then.
00:45:21I'll take that as a yes, then.
00:45:22How do you know?
00:45:23I heard Mark Devlin's in for Marbella.
00:45:25Watches are his thing.
00:45:27Lifted to order.
00:45:29It could be a coincidence, of course.
00:45:32Tudor's as tough as old boots,
00:45:34but he meant it when he said that Gavin Daly's not a man to cross.
00:45:38So, listen, I'm thinking that...
00:45:39You're thinking it was Gavin who snatched Smallbone and tortured him.
00:45:43Yeah, well, it's possible, right?
00:45:44Well, it's probable.
00:45:46We mustn't split focus.
00:45:48Look, I know you've got this soft spot for this old man Daly geezer, right?
00:45:51Finding Aileen's killer is the main priority.
00:45:54You've just told me Tudor and Smallbone had nothing to do with it.
00:45:57That's my instinct, yeah.
00:45:58Yeah, it's mine too.
00:46:00Tudor's right.
00:46:01That watch dealer, Mark Devlin, being in town,
00:46:04that's not a coincidence.
00:46:06Find him.
00:46:07Yeah. OK.
00:46:08Thanks, Clem.
00:46:10This is Mark Drake, who owns the farm.
00:46:12Mr Drake, when did you last see Sean Barnes?
00:46:14Er, yesterday.
00:46:16Yeah, he settled up and cleared out.
00:46:18He even paid two months on top for the inconvenience.
00:46:20Did he have use of a garage or a storage facility, anything like that?
00:46:24Did he leave a forwarding address?
00:46:26Er, no.
00:46:27No. Well, you must have had a contract, paperwork, something.
00:46:34The police are on to me,
00:46:35which means they'll be on to you if they're not already.
00:46:38You thought you'd speed things up by coming here, did you?
00:46:40I was giving you fair warning. You weren't answering your phone.
00:46:43Look, brass tacks.
00:46:44We need to get out of Brighton, lay on the country.
00:46:47At what cost?
00:46:48Well, it's a good thing Daly's offering a 100K reward then, isn't it?
00:46:54We've got the watch.
00:46:55I say we ask the boss for a bigger cut.
00:46:58That's risky, Sean.
00:46:59You've forgotten who our boss works for.
00:47:01Aye.
00:47:02Rich bastards who can and will pay for this all to go away.
00:47:08So, Barnes' criminal contacts are extensive, to say the least,
00:47:11and a fair few are inside, but it still leaves us with 20-plus candidates.
00:47:15That's all I've got. It's pretty skeletal.
00:47:17You're not kidding.
00:47:19Green Ash Estate?
00:47:20Yeah, the letting agency that he came through.
00:47:23Get him on the phone. See if he left a forwarding address.
00:47:33Welcome back, sir.
00:47:34Mr Devlin, hi.
00:47:36How are you? All right?
00:47:37Yes, good. So lovely to see you again.
00:47:39Are we supposed to be friends?
00:47:41Yeah, so I've hit up all the cool hotels
00:47:43and I've found Mark Devlin, the watch dealer, at the flint house.
00:47:47I've got eyes on him now.
00:47:48Good. How does he seem to you?
00:47:50Well, a man who's equally ready for business or pleasure.
00:47:54Stay on him.
00:47:55Yeah, OK.
00:47:58Right, I've been going through Aileen's diary.
00:48:01An initial Z appears on the morning of her death,
00:48:04but no-one with the first or last name beginning with Z
00:48:07appears in her address book.
00:48:09OK, keep digging.
00:48:11But our focus is finding Barnes and IDing his partner.
00:48:35Roy, Greenash Estates, the letting agency Sean Barnes used,
00:48:39is owned by the Padmore Partnership.
00:48:43Padmore?
00:48:44I had the same question and the answer's yes.
00:48:46Isn't that the same family that killed Brandon Daly's boss?
00:48:49Yeah. The Padmore empire is now, well, if not a global concern,
00:48:53a Europe-wide one.
00:48:55Padmore Partnership own 300-plus subsidiaries
00:48:58and is valued north of 800 mil.
00:49:01Well?
00:49:02Scratch the surface and not much has changed.
00:49:04The company's mainly peddled cheap lets and credit.
00:49:06Money in your pocket, roof over your head.
00:49:08There's always a market for that, isn't there?
00:49:12What are you thinking?
00:49:14How could the Padmores having any kind of link to Aileen's murder
00:49:18be coincidence?
00:49:19Well, for centuries it lapsed. How can it be anything else?
00:49:21Not forgetting she was killed on the anniversary of her dad's disappearance.
00:49:25It's not a coincidence.
00:49:27Not forgetting she was killed on the anniversary of her dad's disappearance.
00:49:30So what, you're saying the Padmores have been plaguing the Daly family
00:49:33down the years? Why? That doesn't seem credible.
00:49:36Agreed, but nor is the idea that this is just chance or bad luck.
00:49:44I mean, people don't change, do they? I mean, not really.
00:49:48It's been 60 years since Brandon Daly was killed.
00:49:51Sorry.
00:49:52Disappeared.
00:49:54I hear you, Norman. But, boss...
00:49:56Right, you're always looking for patterns,
00:49:58but maybe sometimes there isn't a pattern, it's just random shit.
00:50:02Look, how do we road-test this notion? Never mind prove it.
00:50:10Timeshares.
00:50:12Timeshares could be in the Padmores' wheelhouse some days.
00:50:16It's accommodation of sorts.
00:50:18OK.
00:50:19Aileen was cold-called about timeshares, right?
00:50:22Yeah, by marrying De Pant in the morning she was attacked.
00:50:24So maybe it was a ploy.
00:50:26To wrong-foot her just as Barnes and his partner showed up.
00:50:32We want itty-grant cash today.
00:50:35Or we collect Govan Daly's reward.
00:50:37Yeah. Good luck with that.
00:50:55Why did you have to kill the old lady, you moron?
00:50:58She wouldn't give up the coat.
00:51:00She wouldn't give up the coat?
00:51:02It's what I've got to work with.
00:51:08Does Marion De Pant have a record?
00:51:10Yeah, she does.
00:51:11One ABH from her days as a loan shark for chance credit.
00:51:17What are you going to do?
00:51:18Pick her up, get a warrant and answer her as proper to you?
00:51:21Are you right, Roy?
00:51:22It is in the Padmores' wheelhouse.
00:51:24Crescent Cove, Open Villas and Chance Credit
00:51:26are both owned by the Padmore partnership.
00:51:30You said Barnes has an extensive list of criminal contacts.
00:51:33Come on.
00:51:34Prioritise anyone who works in rent or debt collection.
00:51:37Cheers, Taylor.
00:51:38See you tomorrow.
00:51:40I heard about Lewis's aunt.
00:51:42My God, I'm so sorry.
00:51:44Thank you.
00:51:45How's he doing?
00:51:46Lewis, I mean.
00:51:48Are you sorry or are you fishing?
00:51:50I'm sorry.
00:51:52But we do need to talk.
00:51:55Leave it alone, Molly.
00:51:56For both of our sakes.
00:52:01So, this is the CCTV from the dentist opposite Lewis's house.
00:52:05Doesn't show who broke the windows, but...
00:52:19Can we find out who she is?
00:52:21Sure.
00:52:22Right, I've had another sift through Barnes' associates
00:52:25prioritising loan sharks and rent collectors.
00:52:29What's this?
00:52:30Not-so-short shortlist?
00:52:32Oh, didn't I mention?
00:52:33I've got a favourite.
00:52:36Robert Macario.
00:52:38Multiple GBH conviction.
00:52:40He's a serial killer.
00:52:42He's a serial killer.
00:52:44He's a serial killer.
00:52:46Multiple GBH convictions,
00:52:48even an attempted murder charge,
00:52:50and he beat that.
00:52:51So why's he risen to the top?
00:52:53Well, in all but one of his GBHs,
00:52:55he is the knuckle-duster.
00:52:58We can definitely time Macario to Barnes.
00:53:00Yeah, and Marion Dupont.
00:53:01He was loan sharking for her at Chance Credit,
00:53:04and he was Barnes' sally at Eastfield Prison.
00:53:09Clem.
00:53:10Uniform had just found the body of Sean Barnes.
00:53:12I'm heading to the scene now.
00:53:14Surveillance are going to take over here.
00:53:16An unknown female called it in.
00:53:18Two assailants.
00:53:19The one who did the deed sounds like it could be Macario.
00:53:21The other one was a woman who drove off in an Audi TT.
00:53:24The burst-blot vessels in his eyes
00:53:26are consistent with a haemorrhaging
00:53:28associated with asphyxiation.
00:53:30But his hands are clean.
00:53:31No bruises on knuckles, nothing under the nails.
00:53:33No attempt to fight back, then?
00:53:35Whoever did this was highly practised.
00:53:38Possibly someone Barnes trusted.
00:53:40Old Macario takes both boxes.
00:53:43Never trust a man with a knuckle duster, boys and girls.
00:53:50I want Macario and Dupont in custody by morning.
00:53:53I don't care what it takes.
00:53:54Also, keep eyes on Devlin.
00:53:56There's every chance they'll meet him at the Flynn house.
00:53:58And we revisit all interested parties.
00:54:00Anyone who might be or might have been
00:54:02in business with the Padmores.
00:54:04Starting with Sarah Courtney,
00:54:06because that is not an S.
00:54:09It's a Z.
00:54:13Aileen's 11am.
00:54:15And if she was, it's a bit odd she didn't mention it, eh?
00:54:23Zoe's my real name.
00:54:24I'd changed it because there was another presenter
00:54:26called Zoe Courtney, believe it or not.
00:54:28So it was you Aileen was seeing the morning she died?
00:54:30I'd just popped over for half an hour.
00:54:33I liked Aileen, liked her house, liked her vibe.
00:54:36I used to just sit and chat and listen to old Nina Simone records.
00:54:39Sounds innocuous.
00:54:40Why didn't you mention this to us?
00:54:41Is that the same reason that she refers to me as Z in her diary?
00:54:46Gavin is very controlling.
00:54:49He sees the worst in people.
00:54:50Well, everyone except for his sister and his dad.
00:54:53So he would see your fraternising as, what,
00:54:56muscling in on a will?
00:54:58Exactly.
00:54:59And when you say he sees the worst in people,
00:55:01that includes Lewis?
00:55:03Times a thousand.
00:55:04His idea of being a good dad was sending him off to boarding school.
00:55:07Just out of sight, out of mind.
00:55:09And how does Lewis feel about him?
00:55:12Ask me an easy one.
00:55:15Loves him and hates him in equal measure.
00:55:17Lewis is an only child and his mum died of cancer when he was little.
00:55:20His dad was his whole world.
00:55:23And he'll never stop craving his approval.
00:55:25OK, well, thanks for your help.
00:55:29That looks like a fun night.
00:55:31That your producer?
00:55:32No, that's Molly, my researcher.
00:55:34That's my producer on the end.
00:55:35Molly Daniels?
00:55:37DS Potting, DS Moor, you got a minute?
00:55:39Not really.
00:55:41We've been trying to contact you
00:55:43so we could clarify your relationship with Lewis Daly.
00:55:47He's married to my boss.
00:55:49That's my relationship with Lewis Daly.
00:55:51So you've never been to visit him at his home?
00:55:5434 Barstock Road.
00:55:57Christ.
00:56:00I don't know where to start.
00:56:01Try the beginning.
00:56:04Sarah...
00:56:06Someone assaulted her.
00:56:08I mean, badly.
00:56:10She had these weird bruises,
00:56:12three or four in a row.
00:56:16I thought it was Lewis.
00:56:17Right, and you confronted him.
00:56:19I confronted him.
00:56:21I confronted him.
00:56:23I thought it was Lewis.
00:56:24Right, and you confronted him.
00:56:26He denied it.
00:56:27Persuasively.
00:56:28He presumably offered an alternative explanation.
00:56:31Because to my unreconstructed eye,
00:56:35this looks like he's paying you off, yeah?
00:56:39You've got your dates mixed up.
00:56:41That was before I saw Sarah's bruises.
00:56:45I did some research work for him.
00:56:46Research work?
00:56:47He wanted me to look into the circumstances
00:56:49of his grandfather's disappearance.
00:56:51Molly, we need you on the floor.
00:56:53One second.
00:56:54Look, I'm under exclusive contract here,
00:56:56but I needed the money.
00:57:01Okay, we're done.
00:57:09Bruises.
00:57:10You thinking what I'm thinking?
00:57:12Knuckle-dusters.
00:57:13Just like Haylene.
00:57:14Macario.
00:57:16Why would Macario want to attack Sarah Courtney?
00:57:18She had her window smashed because she owed money
00:57:20and Macario was collecting.
00:57:21Still wants her getting paid for her TV work.
00:57:24Leaves her face intact.
00:57:25Yeah, well, that kind of work pays pretty well.
00:57:28So why is Sarah Courtney in that kind of debt?
00:57:34There's no easy way to say this.
00:57:36A woman we believe to have been involved in Haylene's murder
00:57:39is a long-term employee of the Padmore Partnership.
00:57:45The partnership is now a full...
00:57:47I know all about the Padmore Partnership.
00:57:50I can tell you their share price for the past 30 years.
00:57:53What kind of employee?
00:57:55She worked for two of their subsidiaries,
00:57:57a property agency and a loan company.
00:57:59If someone's coming for me,
00:58:01someone with knowledge of my past,
00:58:02it makes me think, what else do they know?
00:58:04Tables can always be turned.
00:58:06Let me stop you there.
00:58:08Unless you want me to charge you with a small-bone assault.
00:58:11I deny all charges.
00:58:14Okay.
00:58:16Off the record, that was you, right?
00:58:19You snatched Smallbone from police custody, my custody.
00:58:23And in the process, I assume that you or your driver
00:58:27asked him if he had a hand in the robbery?
00:58:30So...
00:58:31He denied it, and in the end, I believed him.
00:58:34But you misunderstand me, Superintendent.
00:58:36I mean, what else do they know about my father?
00:58:39They might know what happened to him, where he's been all these years.
00:58:42If the Padmores don't know, no-one does.
00:58:46PHONE RINGS
00:59:11Glen.
00:59:12Glen.
00:59:13Receptionist said that Devlin's ordered lunch in his room, times three.
00:59:16Okay. All hands on deck, but you're in charge.
00:59:19And, Glen, tread carefully, especially with Nkaria.
00:59:23Yep. Roger that.
00:59:30Come in.
00:59:35One of you owes money to dangerous people,
00:59:38and I think it's Lewis, not you.
00:59:40They targeted you because they thought it would be quicker.
00:59:43Move the dial. It's none of your business.
00:59:45The man who murdered Aileen beat her with a knuckle duster.
00:59:51That's my business, Sarah.
00:59:53His name is Robert Nkaria. He's a seasoned criminal.
00:59:56Now works as a debt collector.
00:59:58Is that the context in which you met him?
01:00:06Yeah.
01:00:10The reason you used to visit Aileen on your own without Lewis?
01:00:13He resented her because his dad doted on her.
01:00:16But if the two of you got on and you were with her the day she died,
01:00:20why hide it?
01:00:21Like I told your colleagues.
01:00:23Because of Gavin?
01:00:25I don't buy it, Sarah.
01:00:27Withholding the fact that you were one of the last people to see her alive
01:00:31is a big deal, and you know it.
01:00:33You were asking her for money, right?
01:00:36And my guess is that she said no.
01:00:38She said that.
01:00:39All of my other visits were just to butter her up.
01:00:42Harsh but true?
01:00:44No.
01:00:46But I should have come forward.
01:00:48No, I understand why you didn't.
01:00:49You're in the public eye, almost famous,
01:00:51asking an old lady for money just before she turns up dead.
01:00:54That's bad optics.
01:00:55Stop it.
01:00:56But so is obstructing a murder inquiry,
01:00:59which is what your sin of omission amounts to.
01:01:01Now, you can make amends.
01:01:03Lewis was scared.
01:01:05But was he scared enough to point Macario in the direction of Aileen and the watch?
01:01:11Now, I know that is a horrible, horrible notion,
01:01:14but it is something we have to consider.
01:01:16I don't know.
01:01:19I don't know.
01:01:25Lewis.
01:01:26Can I come in?
01:01:27It's not a good time.
01:01:28I want to see the page.
01:01:29I've been thinking about Grandpa Brendan,
01:01:31thinking maybe we can find him together.
01:01:35Okay.
01:01:53Oh, no, this way.
01:02:06He's getting antsy.
01:02:17Two occupants, waiting for visual.
01:02:22Confirm, Dupont and Macario in the car.
01:02:36On it.
01:02:46On my way.
01:02:52Shit.
01:02:56Go, go, go.
01:03:02Stop! Police!
01:03:06Come on.
01:03:08Stay down!
01:03:10Stay down!
01:03:25Not to piss on your parade, but...
01:03:29I've looked at these words and numbers every which way.
01:03:32So have I, then.
01:03:34Pay people even smarter than you to do the same.
01:03:39What if 158 isn't numbers, but letters?
01:03:43Whoa, whoa, careful.
01:03:44What if it's, I don't know, ISB or LSB?
01:03:49Numbers, letters, backwards, forwards, I've considered everything.
01:03:54Humour me.
01:03:55Have you considered that watch the numbers
01:03:57could be a play on the actual word watch?
01:04:00So it means something like, watch the numbers on the watch.
01:04:04Well, I'm sure in the midst of time I've explored that, yeah.
01:04:07You don't sound very certain.
01:04:08Well, it led nowhere, Lewis.
01:04:10It stopped at one minute past four on the 26th of March
01:04:14with a second hand at seven.
01:04:15So?
01:04:16So if you boiled that down to numbers,
01:04:18starting with the biggest measure, months,
01:04:20and ending with the smallest measure, seconds,
01:04:22that would give you...
01:04:24..three, two, six, four, one, seven.
01:04:27Except watch the numbers could mean something totally different.
01:04:29It could.
01:04:30Even if you're right,
01:04:31the numbers could be computed in a hundred different ways.
01:04:34Let's start with the letters.
01:04:35Solve that and then maybe the numbers will fall into place.
01:04:38OK, ISB.
01:04:40No, no, no.
01:04:42Lewis, mate, I've got things to...
01:04:43LSB.
01:04:46OK?
01:04:47LSB plus London plus 1964.
01:04:53Well?
01:04:54London sewage board decommissioned in 65...
01:04:59What?
01:05:00Barlow's shop was right over a network of drains and...
01:05:04..some kind of subterranean river.
01:05:06River?
01:05:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:05:08Pa took me down there once when old man Barlow was away.
01:05:12Look, Dad.
01:05:15LSB followed by a six-figure number
01:05:18over and over.
01:05:22It's a manhole cover.
01:05:24They've all got numbered IDs.
01:05:29Registered property of the late Aileen Daly.
01:05:32It's all been recovered from a Shoreham storage unit
01:05:34that you rent in your mother's name.
01:05:36Well, Mum's big-hearted.
01:05:38She's gullible, if you're being harsh.
01:05:40Let's offer Brighton's daughter her stuff in there
01:05:42and she won't be told.
01:05:43No surprise your friend Macario is no-commenting,
01:05:47so this is your chance to put clear blue water
01:05:50between you and him.
01:05:53Between you and this.
01:06:03About Lewis Daly.
01:06:04Came to you for a loan, is that right?
01:06:06Yeah.
01:06:07Broken a lump sum for him to finance
01:06:09this replica furniture outfit.
01:06:11What were your impressions of him?
01:06:12Bit of an oddball.
01:06:14Lot of questions about our parent company.
01:06:16The Padmore partnership.
01:06:17Yeah, but mostly the Padmore family side of things.
01:06:20The history.
01:06:23I've never met the family,
01:06:24so half his questions I couldn't answer.
01:06:26Such as?
01:06:27How long they've been around,
01:06:28how many pies they've still got their fingers in.
01:06:31It was like it excited him.
01:06:32What, being in business with them?
01:06:34Yeah.
01:06:35Even if it was just borrowing their cash
01:06:37at frankly moronic rates.
01:06:39Go on.
01:06:40Two years on, he's defaulted.
01:06:41He's paid nothing back.
01:06:42So Macario roughed up his wife.
01:06:44Roughed her up?
01:06:46He pummeled her with a knuckle duster.
01:06:48Nothing broken.
01:06:53Next day, Lewis told us about the Claremont Larooners aren't safe.
01:06:57Of course, by now I was freelancing,
01:07:00not representing chance credit.
01:07:02Sure.
01:07:03The Padmores would get their money back eventually, right?
01:07:06I'm sorry.
01:07:08I'm going to have to no comment that one.
01:07:11And can you call my lawyer?
01:07:15PHONE RINGS
01:07:21Sarah?
01:07:22Where have you been?
01:07:23I've been trying to call you.
01:07:25Yeah, what is it?
01:07:26The police have been here.
01:07:27They think you were behind the robbery.
01:07:29Is it true?
01:07:31What did you tell them, Sarah?
01:07:33What did you say to the police?
01:07:34Everything okay?
01:07:40Yeah.
01:07:41Dad and I were just, we were just heading out.
01:07:43Where to?
01:07:44London.
01:07:45I'll run you up.
01:07:46Oh, no.
01:07:47No, it's fine.
01:07:48We've, um, we've got some stuff to talk about.
01:07:51It's no trouble.
01:07:53I said it's fine.
01:07:54Oh.
01:07:55How about I ask your dad?
01:07:57Seems it's him I work for and not you.
01:08:01So, what did she tell the police?
01:08:14Come on, Dad.
01:08:16Sarah can take us.
01:08:17Oh.
01:08:18No.
01:08:19Freeze the crowd.
01:08:21Come on, we can talk on the way.
01:08:30My lawyer is ten minutes away.
01:08:32Okay.
01:08:33Round two, we need her to implicate Macario.
01:08:35No ifs, no buts.
01:08:37We need Lewis in custody.
01:08:39Right.
01:08:42I think I found Clive Ellis.
01:08:44How?
01:08:45So, he had a younger brother called Mitchell.
01:08:46Four hours in the records office,
01:08:47and I find a death certificate for a Mitchell Ellis.
01:08:50I track down the cremation forms,
01:08:51and they are countersigned by a Clive Ellis.
01:08:56I thought it was witness protection.
01:08:57Maybe he got lax.
01:08:58I trace him to a nursing home in Croydon.
01:09:00And get this.
01:09:01Staff tell me that a TV researcher
01:09:03has been making inquiries about him.
01:09:05Molly Danielson?
01:09:07Said she was researching the East End in the 60s.
01:09:09Right, so she was telling the truth.
01:09:10Lewis had put her out of work.
01:09:12Hold on.
01:09:13Why does he want to find Ellis?
01:09:16To win his dad's love.
01:09:19Solve the riddle that's blighted his whole life.
01:09:23Okay, we need to pick up Lewis Daly.
01:09:25If you can't find him, get a hold of Sarah
01:09:27and tell her it is in her best interests to help us.
01:09:30Yeah, okay.
01:09:33Ellis.
01:09:37He's the key to the whole thing.
01:09:39Oh, Christ.
01:09:40First Gavin, son, now you lot.
01:09:42I should have hired a secretary.
01:09:44We thought you were in witness protection.
01:09:46I was.
01:09:47Justified against Ian Padmore back in 73.
01:09:50New ID, a full works.
01:09:51Packed me off to New Jersey for the best part of 40 years.
01:09:54What brought you home?
01:09:55My brother.
01:09:56He had dementia.
01:09:57He was all on his own.
01:09:58But came back in 2019 against all the advice.
01:10:02Right, so you were jeopardizing your not-so-new identity then.
01:10:05After my brother died, I was so sad and tired.
01:10:07I didn't care.
01:10:08So I just became Clive Ellis again.
01:10:11That's why Gavin Daly couldn't find you.
01:10:14Did he try?
01:10:15Oh, yeah, he tried.
01:10:18I'll never forget his face when we left the flat.
01:10:22Abandoned.
01:10:24Like he knew he'd never see his dad again.
01:10:26Come on, Ellis!
01:10:31Is that why you gave him the watch?
01:10:33I wanted him to have something to remember his dad by.
01:10:37Why didn't Brendan Daly make it home that night, Mr. Ellis?
01:10:41Well, he didn't die trying to save his boss, that's for sure.
01:10:48It was Brendan's idea to rob the watchmaker in the first place.
01:10:58He's definitely away.
01:11:01He's gone to his sister's.
01:11:03Won't be back till Sunday night.
01:11:06What?
01:11:08Brendan's?
01:11:09Yeah.
01:11:13Why drag him out of his flat?
01:11:16Again, his idea.
01:11:17So the kids would say that he was forced when the old Bill came round asking.
01:11:28Watch the numbers. Tell me about that.
01:11:31Well, it weren't in my interest for them to find Brendan too quick.
01:11:36Nor anyone else.
01:11:38I've always liked puzzles.
01:11:40So I set him one.
01:11:42The watch was broken during a raid, so...
01:11:46I set the hands to the numbers.
01:11:49Like a code.
01:11:53He never solved it.
01:11:56Maybe that's for the best.
01:11:58Where is Brendan Daly, Mr. Ellis?
01:12:10Norman.
01:12:11Found Gavin's driver out cold, bludgeoned over the head.
01:12:14So I spoke to his store manager, said Gavin's on the way to London with Lewis.
01:12:18But she doesn't know where.
01:12:19But judging by the look of this guy, I think he's in real danger.
01:12:23Yeah, I think you might be right.
01:12:29No watchmakers?
01:12:32You've never been back?
01:12:51Don't be asking where I learned how to drive.
01:12:55Don't be asking where I learned how to do this.
01:13:07So.
01:13:10Old man Barlow was found over there.
01:13:14You sure there's a cellar?
01:13:16Yeah, of course I'm sure.

01:13:35No drink at all?
01:13:36No.
01:13:42Let's shift this one.

01:14:59Think they just threw him in?
01:15:04No.
01:15:08No, Dad.

01:16:12Pa.
01:16:25He didn't abandon you, Dad.
01:16:27He didn't leave you.
01:16:30No.
01:16:36Lewis.
01:16:37We found him.
01:16:41No, we didn't, Lewis.
01:16:43You found him.
01:16:46The question is...
01:16:49How?
01:16:50We...
01:16:51We followed the clues.
01:16:53No, we didn't.
01:16:54You brought me straight here.
01:16:56I found him.
01:16:58Isn't that enough? It's over. You're free.
01:17:00How did you know?
01:17:01Eh?
01:17:03You know, if you'd shown me half the love and care you lavish on those watches,
01:17:09none of this would have happened.
01:17:11None of what?
01:17:14Seriously.
01:17:16Who have you been talking to?
01:17:19Padmore's, Dad. I've been talking to the Padmore's.
01:17:23Of course, if you'd lent me the money, I wouldn't have had to.
01:17:25I wouldn't be in their debt.
01:17:28And I wouldn't have...
01:17:29What?
01:17:31What?
01:17:33I had to tell them about the watch.
01:17:40You.
01:17:42Come on, Dad.
01:17:44Finish the job.
01:17:46Finish the job.
01:17:49Go on.
01:17:56Gavin, put it down!
01:17:57Put the gun down!
01:18:01I come for answers.
01:18:03And not leave until I get them.
01:18:05Fair enough.
01:18:10Lewis did arrange to have this stolen to pay off his debts.
01:18:12And he will spend a long time in prison for his part in Aileen's murder.
01:18:15They said they wouldn't hurt her.
01:18:17They promised me.
01:18:18My sister died in fear and agony.
01:18:21Because of you.
01:18:23You sack of shit!
01:18:25Gavin, he couldn't have known that they would do what they did.
01:18:28I didn't!
01:18:29Of course you did. You picked the 6th of April for that very reason, right?
01:18:32I just wanted your attention.
01:18:33All I gave you, you wasted space you always were.
01:18:37You wanted for nothing.
01:18:38You wanted your attention.
01:18:39But that was allotted to Aileen, to your dad, to the past.
01:18:44Yeah, but it just shows I got my priorities right, didn't I?
01:18:46Oh, really?
01:18:47I hear sweet old Grandpa Brendan used to beat the crap out of you.
01:18:50Aileen too.
01:18:51You spent your life looking for a monster and look what you've turned into!
01:19:01We spoke to Clive, Ellis.
01:19:03And he painted a very different picture of your dad.
01:19:10You.
01:19:11I always knew you was rubbish.
01:19:16No, don't!
01:19:21You bastard!
01:19:39Hide his body.
01:19:42They're looking for him.
01:19:44They're not looking for us.
01:19:48He had a record. A mile long, Gavin.
01:19:50Lies.
01:19:52All lies.
01:19:53He had a drink problem, he had a bad temper.
01:19:56Ellis said that all the mums feared for you and your sister.
01:19:58It was on his shoulders. It was all on him.
01:20:03Dad!
01:20:10Dad!
01:20:13Stop!
01:20:19Stop it, Pa, stop!
01:20:24I feel sorry for your dad.
01:20:28You weren't looking for him all these years.
01:20:30You were defending the memory of a man who never existed.
01:20:34Of course there was nothing left for the rest of us.
01:20:36Stop.
01:20:37Stop.
01:20:39He's right.
01:20:40You don't have to live in the past.
01:20:42Just let it go.
01:20:51I tried to be strong.
01:20:55So that people could rely on me.
01:20:58Turn to me.
01:21:03I failed everyone.
01:21:10I'm sorry.
01:21:17I'm so sorry.
01:21:39I'm sorry.
01:21:53You know,
01:21:55people talk about being stuck in the past.
01:21:57Imprisoned by it.
01:22:00Just to be clear,
01:22:02are we talking about you or Gavin Daly?
01:22:05Well, he's a one-man cautionary tale, certainly.
01:22:09But I suppose even the most painful memories
01:22:12can become familiar.
01:22:15A refuge, if you like.
01:22:18In comparison, the here and now
01:22:21can seem terrifying.
01:22:23Never mind the future.
01:22:28You've got the voice of experience, old-timer.
01:22:35Let's just call it a work in progress.
01:22:55You haven't been to bed, have you?
01:22:58Yeah.
01:22:59Slept on the couch.
01:23:00Didn't want to disturb you.
01:23:03So that was someone else
01:23:05coming in the front door half an hour ago?
01:23:20Mum, where's my kit?
01:23:22Mum.
01:23:31Delivery woman was on one.
01:23:33I mean, really shitty.
01:23:36Someone told her where to go.
01:23:38And then she just stopped and looked at me.
01:23:41And she apologised and said she was being made redundant.
01:23:45She ended up coming in with tea and biscuits
01:23:47and telling me all about her kid.
01:23:49I love you.
01:23:53I don't have anything.
01:24:00I mean, I haven't got a ring or anything.
01:24:07But will you marry me?
01:24:15You could at least get down on one knee.
01:24:22Joking.
01:24:29Yes.
01:24:31I think.
01:24:34You think?
01:24:38This isn't because I'm pregnant.
01:24:40This is what you actually want.
01:24:44This is most definitely what I actually want.
01:24:49Love it.
01:24:52Yes.
01:25:10No.
01:25:11Don't. Leave it. Just leave it.
01:25:20Roy!
01:25:22Roy!
01:25:52Roy!
01:26:22Roy!
