The Bill S25E54 Trust Me [Part 1]
Transcript
00:00Morning, Terry. Morning, lads.
00:07Looks like the cleaner's overslept again.
00:21Have you got to get the staff these days?
00:26Drugs were delivered last night, about half ten. Final deal went down about two. Runner knocked off at 2.30. No activity since.
00:34What about Jimmy Mac?
00:36Inside, with the lovely Rochelle Chapman.
00:40I call Macs.
00:42What are you doing?
00:43I didn't have breakfast. You think this is edible?
00:45I think it's disgusting, even for you.
00:47You're right.
00:48Sarge, Banksy.
00:50Drugs inside.
00:51Breakfast.
00:52All quiet. We're on.
00:54I've got delivery last night.
00:55Who's in the house now?
00:57Jimmy Mac and Rochelle Chapman, that's all. The raid's on.
00:59Excellent.
01:00Banksy, any sign of life, any movement at all, you give me a call, all right?
01:03Look out for us in about 90 minutes from now.
01:2560 Faith Street, an address known only too well to us because of this lowlife here.
01:30James Makovsky, otherwise known as Jimmy Mac, he's been dealing out of it for the last two months, heroin mainly,
01:35and for those who can't afford the real thing, diazepam.
01:38Like these? They'll be found on some of Jimmy's customers when we pick them up.
01:41As you know, Macs and Joe have been carrying out an oboe on the place so they can gather surveillance evidence and work out their routines. Joe?
01:47Sure. OK.
01:49Punter drives up, gives his cash to a runner waiting in the street.
01:53Runner goes to the house, drops off the cash, collects the drugs, and ferries them back to the punter.
01:59So the whole deal lasts seconds.
02:01The runner is carrying the drugs for, what, half a minute tops?
02:04How many runners are there?
02:05Usually one, busy times two or three.
02:08Forget the runners. We're after bigger fish.
02:10We want three things from this op.
02:12One, Jimmy Mac and his business brought down for good.
02:14Two, the consignment of drugs that was delivered last night, about two kilos of heroin plus pills.
02:19It's worth about 30 or 40 grand.
02:21What's the third thing you said, all three?
02:23Yeah, we want the guy who bankrolls Jimmy Mac.
02:25Do we know who he is?
02:26No one does. Well, if they do, they're not telling us.
02:29But if we can catch Jimmy with a shedload of heroin, maybe we can persuade him to give us his fairy godfather.
02:33We think the guy behind Jimmy is running other dealers in Canley.
02:36Over the last two months, Barton Street has shut down two operations exactly like this one,
02:40and in both cases, the dealers in the house refused to talk.
02:43They took the fall themselves, rather than give up their boss.
02:46And when we go in, there'll be two people in the house, Jimmy Mac and his girlfriend, Rochelle Chapman.
02:51If we're lucky, they'll both be asleep, but we can't be sure,
02:54so we need to go in hard and fast, just in case they decide to flush the drugs down the toilet.
02:58Right, that's it. Let's go.
03:04You really like this, don't you?
03:06Like it? I love it. Don't you?
03:08I suppose it's...
03:09That's what it is. Too much of what we do is complicated.
03:12Rules and regulations, PC, bull.
03:14Kicking a door down and arresting a bad guy. What's not to like?
03:20What's up, Mattel?
03:21Rochelle is leaving the house.
03:22Is she carrying anything?
03:24Not that I can see, but I can't really tell. Do you want me to have her stopped?
03:26If she does, we'll have to be quick.
03:28Let her go. Get a uniform unit to stop her well away from the address,
03:31and nick her for possession of heroin, and take her down to station for a strip search.
03:34That way, she won't be able to warn Jimmy Mac.
03:36Will do.
03:38Let's hope there's no more surprises, eh?
03:44Right, all ready?
03:46Right, you two, cover the front.
03:48Stay out of sight until we're in.
03:50If anyone comes out, it'll be Jimmy Mac, so grab him.
03:52Right, Sarge.
03:53Only one body in the house now, but he could be up and about,
03:55so we need to be quick and quiet.
04:08Shit!
04:18Sarge, wait!
04:19What is it?
04:20I think I've trodden in something.
04:22Roger, get a grip!
04:23It's all over the place. Are you sure they haven't got a dog?
04:26Well, if they have, it's the first I've heard.
04:28Well, by the look of what's left behind, it's a big one.
04:30Rottweiler, Alsatian.
04:31Why didn't they show up on the oboe?
04:33I think we should get the fire extinguisher.
04:35No, they'll just make them angry. I've seen it on YouTube.
04:37Sarge, I think we should get the dog handlers in.
04:39Oh, for goodness sake, get in there!
04:41Right.
04:53Well, if it isn't the hand of the Baskerville.
04:56James Makovsky.
04:57Michelle.
04:58I'm arresting you on suspicion of playing Class A drugs.
05:00Michelle!
05:01I'll make this simple, mate.
05:02Get some clothes on, cos you're nicked.
05:06The girlfriend's vanished, scuff.
05:08No, no, Uniform never found her.
05:12I'm bringing Jimmy Mackie myself, leaving Joliet to do the search.
05:17Thanks, scuff. Yeah, I'll pass it on.
05:19Found her back from the DI.
05:21You and me make a great team.
05:22I make you look good. That's what it means.
05:24Where's Michelle? What have you done with her?
05:26I found these in the kitchen, Sarge. They had a pattern.
05:29Those are mine. Personal use.
05:31I lead a very stressful life.
05:33You soon will do.
05:34Did you finish with us, Sarge? We're up on patrol now.
05:36That's fine. Roger?
05:37Yeah?
05:38Watch out for big dogs.
05:39Ah, very funny, Sarge.
05:40Hiya.
05:41Right, any sign of the heroin yet?
05:43Not yet, but it's early days.
05:44OK, fine. Give me a call when you find it.
05:46Jo, you stay here with Terry and help with the search.
05:48Banksy, come with me.
05:49See you.
05:50See you later.
05:51It's the kind of job I like. All done and dusted before breakfast.
05:53Don't mention breakfast when Terry's about.
05:55It looked like a big dog.
05:57From its faeces, I mean. You can usually tell.
05:59Can we talk about something else, please, Roger?
06:01Sierra Oscar One from Sierra Oscar.
06:03Thank God for that.
06:05Sierra Oscar from Sierra One. Go ahead.
06:0721 Atkins Street, Maycroft Estate.
06:09Female distressed on balcony calling for help.
06:11LAS are attending this location.
06:13Report of a sick child.
06:14Show us dealing, please.
06:18Well, it depends what they were feeding her.
06:27Well, well, well.
06:29What is it?
06:30I think I've figured out why Rochelle cleared out.
06:32See that blue cross?
06:34I think she's pregnant.
06:41Police!
06:43Can you open the door, please?
06:46No, I haven't called for the police.
06:48I'm just expecting an ambulance.
06:50They'll be here any minute. Your name is?
06:52I'm Fran Morris.
06:54Problem?
06:55It's my son, Noah. I was just thinking he might have taken something.
06:57He's in here.
06:58And I just came in to get him up and offend him like that.
07:01Do you know where he's taken?
07:02No.
07:03He's breathing.
07:04Hey, Noah, my name's Sally and this is Roger.
07:06We're going to make you a bit more comfortable, all right?
07:10Diazepam.
07:11Same as the ones at Jimmy Mac's.
07:17Anything?
07:18Listen, Jo, you can search this place till you're blue in the face
07:20and you're not going to find anything.
07:22You'd better call Max and tell him.
07:25I'll call him, but he's not going to be very happy, is he?
07:28We haven't got the drugs.
07:30We haven't got a case.
07:33Either Jimmy Mac flushed the heroin down the toilet and pretended to be asleep,
07:37or, and I hate to say this, Gov, Rochelle took it out.
07:40Well, which one is it?
07:42Well, I don't think it's Jimmy, Gov, because he's as baffled as we are.
07:44He didn't even know that Rochelle had gone.
07:46Maybe he's a good liar.
07:47He's not. He's about as sharp as a marble,
07:49which is another reason I'm sure he's not the boss.
07:51So you're telling me that Terry and Banksy watched Rochelle walk out the house carrying the heroin?
07:55They didn't know that she was carrying it.
07:57Yes, Gov, that's what it looks like.
07:58We've no reason to think that Rochelle's involved with Jimmy's dealing.
08:01She's his girlfriend and a small-time user, and that's all she is.
08:03Apart from pregnant, we found a test kit during the search,
08:06and I don't think that Jimmy knows.
08:08Well, that would explain why she'd run out on him.
08:11And took the heroin.
08:12You can run a long way on 40 grand.
08:14Anyway, we've circulated Rochelle's details,
08:16and Terry and Banksy are tracking her on CCTV.
08:18I just thought you'd like to know,
08:20Sally and Roger were down at St. Hugh's with a 12-year-old boy,
08:22a Noah Morris, who's OD'd on diazepam.
08:25So they think the pills he took came from the house on 5th Street.
08:28Noah Morris? Is that Fran Morris' son?
08:30Yeah, that's right.
08:31Is he going to be all right?
08:32They're not sure yet.
08:33You know this kid?
08:34Yeah, I arrested his mother, Fran, about 18 months ago,
08:37former prostitute in possession of heroin,
08:39and she swore she was going to get clean for the sake of Noah.
08:42And you believed her?
08:46Convicted for soliciting and possession of heroin.
08:49Received. She's got previews.
08:52She's going to be all right.
08:55You know, the nurse said that we were lucky to find them pills.
08:58Did she tell you what they were?
09:00Yeah, diazepam.
09:01Mother's little helper.
09:03You need a little help sometimes, Fran?
09:06What are you saying?
09:08Where did Noah get the pills from?
09:10Well, not from me.
09:12I don't know, he must have found them in the street somewhere,
09:14because I don't take diazepam.
09:16I don't take anything.
09:18We've got two of them.
09:19I don't take anything.
09:21We've got two convictions for possession of heroin,
09:23one with intent to supply, and several for soliciting.
09:25Yeah, that was over a year ago.
09:27Look, I've cleaned up since then, all right,
09:29and I've been clean for months.
09:30Look, ask my drugs worker.
09:32Here, I'll give you her number.
09:34They weren't my pills, I swear.
09:36I don't know where he got them from.
09:39Right, we need to search your flat.
09:41You need to be there when we do so.
09:43Well, no, I don't leave a Noah.
09:46Here, give me it back when you're done,
09:48because you aren't going to find anything,
09:49because there's nothing to find.
09:57Yeah.
09:58These look like they're from the same batch found at Jimmy Mac's.
10:01I liked Fran.
10:02I honestly thought she was going to make it.
10:04It's a pity.
10:05Any luck with the drugs worker?
10:06She's got her mobile off.
10:07I left a voicemail.
10:08Can you let me know if you find anything at Fran's flat?
10:10Sure.
10:11Thanks.
10:12Jimmy Mac's brief's arrived.
10:14We can interview him at last.
10:15Did we let Jimmy know that we haven't found any heroin?
10:17Let's keep him guessing about it as long as we can.
10:20I'm showing the suspect exhibit TP1.
10:25And we can prove that you were in the house
10:27when these deals were going down.
10:31As far as I can see,
10:32none of these photographs actually shows my plan.
10:34All these deals and dozens more we've recorded
10:36are being done by you, Jimmy,
10:37using the runners as go-betweens.
10:40You can see I've got no choice.
10:42I confess.
10:43Jimmy.
10:44I've been dealing a bit of dope.
10:45Jimmy, please.
10:46Sorry, Jane.
10:47What?
10:48Don't pretend you're Mr Nice.
10:49You ruin lives.
10:50You destroy people.
10:51You sell heroin.
10:52Can you prove that, Sergeant?
10:53So we picked up some of your customers
10:55walking away from the house.
10:57Most of them had heroin in their possession
10:59and the rest of them had diazepam.
11:01When I leave this police station,
11:02I will have these in my possession.
11:04Doesn't mean I bought them here.
11:05What exactly did you find at my client's house?
11:08What are you getting on with Rochelle?
11:10Why? What's it to you?
11:11You didn't have her out?
11:12Why are you asking me about Rochelle?
11:13She's not involved.
11:14Not involved in what?
11:15Anything.
11:16You didn't answer my question.
11:17Rochelle ran out on you this morning
11:18while you were asleep.
11:20She didn't run out on me.
11:21What did you find?
11:23Why did she leave?
11:24Popped out to buy ciggies.
11:25I don't know.
11:26Excuse me.
11:27I'd like to know what you found.
11:28Rochelle's pregnant, Jimmy.
11:30Did you know that?
11:31What?
11:33No.
11:34No.
11:35Sit down, Jimmy.
11:36There.
11:37How do you know that?
11:39You don't know Rochelle.
11:40Pregnant.
11:41When you raided my client's house,
11:42did you find any drugs at all?
11:44Still looking.
11:45The search isn't over.
11:46What have you found so far?
11:47A quantity of diazepam.
11:48Oh, diazepam.
11:49That's, uh, what?
11:50Class C?
11:51Two years for possession.
11:52Fourteen for possession with intent.
11:53Please, Sergeant, come on.
11:54You're whistling in the wind and you know it.
11:58I'd like a word with my client alone, please.
12:05Interview terminated at...
12:14I don't know.
12:15That's very helpful.
12:16Thanks for calling me back.
12:17Fran's drugs worker says
12:18Fran's tested every month voluntarily.
12:19Last test a week ago, clean as a whistle.
12:20Well, if you're telling the truth,
12:21you could find the drugs on the street.
12:22Not exactly a domestic goddess, is she?
12:23No, too busy studying to do any housework.
12:24Sociology.
12:25I did that.
12:26Yeah.
12:27Sally.
12:28Fran.
12:29Fran.
12:30Fran.
12:31Fran.
12:32Fran.
12:33Fran.
12:34Fran.
12:35Fran.
12:36Fran.
12:37Fran.
12:38Fran.
12:39Fran.
12:40Fran.
12:41Fran.
12:42Fran.
12:43Fran.
12:44Noa.
12:45And...
12:46It's Rochelle.
12:48Jimmy Mack's girlfriend.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Well, I hate to agree with the opposition, Mack,
12:52but Jimmy's brief is right.
12:53He's such a smuggler, too.
12:56No heroin, no case.
12:58If you don't find the heroin,
12:59you're gonna have to let Jimmy go.
13:02Sarge, want to come and see what we got?
13:04Please, tell me.
13:05Is he gonna cheer me up?
13:06We'll be over the moon.
13:08Right, that's Rochelle leaving the house
13:10on Faith Street, early this morning.
13:12yours truly. There she goes. Okay, and? Right, this is the CCTV at the corner of Fay Street
13:19and Talbot Lane. Now, she's a bit away from the house, she obviously feels comfortable,
13:24so have a look at this. That's got to be the smack, don't you think? Oh, I'd say so. We
13:31won't bore you with the rest of the journey, but she walks for about a mile. Bramwell Road,
13:35Canley Fields, Westway Avenue. Are you watching Benny Hill? So where does she go after that?
13:40We're not sure yet. Oh, she could have gone anywhere. You did well to track her that far.
13:45Well, you know where she went after that, don't we, Rog? Oh, we can make an educated
13:48guess on. We just searched Fran Morrison's flat. We didn't find any drugs, but we did
13:53find this, Sarge. Now, that's Fran, Fran's son Noah, who just OD'd on diazepam, and Rochelle.
13:58What are you saying, that Rochelle took the drugs to Fran's place? Looks like that to
14:02us, yeah. Well, Fran's not a user herself anymore. Her drugs worker says she's clean,
14:05at least she was a week ago. I want to talk to her. She still at St Hugh's? She will be,
14:09I'm sure. Joe, you'd better come along. Nice work. Well done.
14:20Hello, Fran. Joe. Hi, Fran. I'm DS Max Carter. How you feeling, Noah? A bit sick. Oh, yeah.
14:30Well, the doctor said he's going to be fine. They put a tube down my throat and pumped
14:34out my stomach. Did they? Why did you take those pills? I don't know. I just wanted to
14:43see what they were like. Well, you know kids, they'll try anything once. We need to ask
14:48you some questions, Fran. Do you think we could go somewhere a bit more, um, a bit more
14:51private? No. No, I'm not leaving Noah. It won't take a minute. You can go with Joe and
14:58Yeah, come on, Fran. He'll be fine.
15:08So, uh, do you want to tell me where you found those pills? The street. The street? Really?
15:15Just lying there? In a packet? In a bottle? Loose? My throat hurts. I'm not supposed to
15:23talk. You're back on the drugs, Fran? No, Joe, I swear. I understand the pressures that
15:31you're under, so we have been popping a few pills to help you relax. I haven't, all right?
15:35I don't touch drugs anymore. I've fought really hard to get clean and now I am forever. Did
15:41those coppers find anything in my flat? No, they didn't find any drugs, no. So there was
15:45nothing to find? Noah picked them pills up in the street. Do you know James Makowski?
15:50Jimmy Mak? No, I don't think so, is he? Sells smack out of a house on Fay Street? No, I don't
15:57know him. What about his girlfriend, Michelle Chapman? Why are you asking me all this, yeah?
16:02What's it got to do with me? I'm just going to go back to Noah. Stop lying, Francesca.
16:07We know that something happened this morning. We found this in your flat. I'd say you look
16:12pretty fond of her. I am. Yeah, she reminds me of me when I was her age. She's making
16:23the same mistakes, getting into drugs and getting pregnant. How do you know about that?
16:30She's only just found out herself. Is that why she ran out on Jimmy Mak and came to you?
16:34Yeah, because I told her I'd take her in any time. I'll give her a safe place to go.
16:41Noah's having a nap. The nurse said that's good. Yeah. See, the problem is, Fran, that
16:46when she left Jimmy, she took his drugs. Forty grand's worth of smack and pills. She said
16:54that they'd pay for a new life for me and Noah and her and the baby somewhere far away
16:59from Sun Hill, you know? Michelle's a sweet kid, Jeff, but she is a total flake. I was
17:05really angry and I felt really sick when I saw all those drugs. God, I was so angry.
17:12Didn't you go to the police, Fran? Because Michelle's not a bad person at all. I couldn't
17:16see her go down. And what have you done with the drugs? Well, Michelle had to go out somewhere,
17:24so I just told her to leave them with me and I flushed them down the bog. The smack, pills,
17:32all of it, apart from just a couple of pills that must have fallen onto the bathroom floor
17:37because that's where Noah fell. You expect us to believe you flushed away 40 grand's
17:41worth of drugs? I don't care what you believe. Terry. It's the truth. I want you and Baxley
17:46to go to the Maycroft. The flat Roger and Sally were in earlier. Search it again. Rip
17:51the place apart if you have to. You don't want to change your story? No, I don't, because
18:00it's the truth. Right, okay, thanks much. We don't have a key. Roger gave me an after
18:09the last search. So how are we going? Police, open the door. Police. All right, all right.
18:29He said, he said he'd kill me.
18:36I got a good look at his back as he was running away, but his face, probably icy one. You
19:02think it was Jimmy Mac's boss? Rochelle steals 40K's worth of his drugs. Then he tortures
19:07her to give her a very clear message not to do it again. I'd say it's a very strong possibility,
19:11yeah. What I don't understand is how did he know that Rochelle took his drugs? How is
19:15she? Badly shaken, Garth, but we arrived on the scene before he had a chance to do any
19:19real damage. The FME's checking her over now. If she says she's okay, I'm going to go and
19:23interview her with Terry. I'm hoping she'll feel grateful towards him for pulling her
19:26out of the fire. I wouldn't count on it, Sarge. She wasn't exactly chatty. Well, you already
19:30questioned her. We tried to get her to ID her assailant, but she refused, point blank,
19:34too scared. She told us she got a call from someone asking for a meet. She said she didn't
19:38know who it was, but she went anyway. My guess is that she knew the caller wanted the drugs
19:42and she was hoping to do a deal. That's why she took him to Fran's flat, but when they
19:46got there, no drugs. Have we got the phone? Yes, Sarge, pretty sure we have. Terry, how's
19:50Rochelle doing? Is she up for an interview? Great, I'll be down in five. Why don't we
19:57trace that caller, Sarge? I didn't see him. You were face to face with him, Rochelle.
20:02Well, he burned me with his cigarette and threatened to kill me. So, like I say, I didn't
20:09see him. The heroin and the pills you stole from Jimmy, you took them to Fran Morris'
20:13place. We know that because we spoke to her in St. Hugh's. What was she doing there? Fran's
20:22son, Noah, he swallowed some of those pills. Had to be rushed to A&E. Oh, no. Is he going
20:27to be alright? I don't know yet, but if you really do care about him and about Fran, you'll
20:33help us get those drugs off the streets. Why did you walk out on Jimmy Mack this morning?
20:40Is it because you're pregnant? How do you know that? Because we found the pregnancy
20:47test in the bin. As soon as I knew, I was like, I can't live this life anymore. Where
20:56was Jimmy when you left? In bed, sleeping. I knew he wouldn't wake up. Jimmy'd sleep
21:04through World War II. OK. Tell us about the drugs. We watched you leaving the house, Rochelle.
21:11We know you had the drugs. We just want to know why you took them. I don't know. They
21:18were just there on the table. I knew they were worth a lot of money. So what, you just
21:23grabbed them on your way out the door, is that it? For the take, please. Yeah, that's
21:27exactly what I did. And what were you going to do with them? It was a spur of the moment
21:30thing. I didn't, like, plan it or anything. So what did Fran say when she saw all that
21:36heroin? I've never seen her so mad. I thought she was going to... I don't know. The state
21:43she was in, she could have done anything. And what did she do? Told me to take them
21:47back. I didn't want to. I couldn't face Jimmy. Fran was all set to take them herself, but
21:57I got a call. Who from? A mate who just walked by the house. Said she'd seen Jimmy in the
22:02back of a police car. So Fran couldn't take the heroin back? She was going a bit mental
22:07by then. That's when I decided to get out. Leaving the drugs behind? Fran said she'd
22:12sought it. I don't know how. She told us she flushed them down the toilet. Tell us about
22:20Jimmy's boss. The one who set this whole thing up. The one who... The guy who did this to
22:24me. You think I'm stupid? Do you think I want more of it?
22:33Any joy? Not really. Too scared. Of Jimmy? Of Jimmy's boss.
22:40Where is Jimmy? With his brief. Eager to answer our questions? I wouldn't say that, Sarge.
22:47When we broke into the flat, there she was, your girlfriend. Ex-girlfriend. Duct-taped
22:52to a chair. Blindfolded. Burned. Frightened. Lucky we got there when we did. Half an hour
22:58later, who knows what he might have done to her. Did you catch him? Jimmy and Jimmy taking
23:02it easy. They're just trying to wind you up. He's only telling your client what he's found.
23:06No, sadly, we didn't catch him. Whose flat was this? It doesn't matter whose flat it
23:10was. How's Rochelle doing now? How do you think after an ordeal like that? Upset. Shaken.
23:16Terrified. Poor kid's expecting too, don't forget. Your child. Where is she? She's probably
23:21still here, but she's being bailed. Jimmy, if you'd like me to go and have a little bit
23:27of her. See if she's alright. No. No, thank you. It's okay. The pond scum of her, Rochelle,
23:34will catch him, Jimmy. Depend upon it. But he's nothing. He's just a rent-a-thug. Hired
23:40to terrify her and to give him back the heroin she took from your house. My client told you
23:44he has nothing to do with any heroin. Your client is lying and we know it. You know,
23:48Jimmy, if you weren't banged up in here, I'd say it was you who set that thug on Rochelle.
23:51No. No. It was your heroin she took. She's a good kid. I'd never hurt her. Was it? Who
23:56does that heroin really belong to? Tell us, Jimmy. Who hurt Rochelle? Who's your boss?
24:06No comment.
24:19Do you think he brought his own gaffer tape with him, or do you think he found it here?
24:23Brought it? We may never have useful stuff like that. Are you still here? Where's Noah?
24:29What's going on? I just left him around the night. What's happened? Check the last received
24:37call to Rochelle's phone. The suspect did call her. So what took you so long to trace
24:42him? Years and hundreds to pay as you go, so we had to use cell-sign analysis to catch
24:46him. Oh, yes. Cherish the details. We're impressed. Sausage jokers only. Brian Archer
24:51has an address. He's big, unpredictable, and he's got a form for violence. The last cop
24:56that arrested him, Archer, bit his ear. So you might want to take backup. Great.
25:03Watch your ears. Right, you take the back in case he doesn't run, yeah? You've heard
25:08what he's like, so be ready for anything.
25:17Oh. May I help you? Yeah, we were looking for Brian Archer. Do you know him? I'm Miss
25:25Graham. Oh, right. He's right about Mrs... Wilberforce. Yes, as a matter of fact, he
25:32is. Oh, could we have a word with him? Can't it wait? He's watching Danger Mouse and having
25:37a bite to eat with Tyson. Tyson? His brother. Oh, right. No, it can't wait. Mrs. Wilberforce
25:45we need to speak to Brian now. Oh. Well, come in. Thank you. Brian, there's two constables
25:54at the door. Brian Archer? Yeah. Who wants to know? That's right, Tyson. Brian on your
26:02feet, mate. You come down and lick with us. Don't even think about it. You're a friend
26:06of your nan, yeah? What is it? What's going on? I need to have a little chat with your
26:10grandson, Mrs. Wilberforce, down at the station. Nice and quiet now, Brian. No trouble, no
26:16fuss. Better for all concerned, yeah? I'll keep it warm. Thanks very much for the herbal
26:34tea. Yeah, thanks a bunch. It's all right. I told you you wouldn't find anything, though.
26:39That was the most disgusting thing I've ever done. Sorry. What do you think? Well, if she
26:50wanted to get rid of drugs in a hurry, I'll get Fran. You start checking the bins. Hope
26:54you're soon. Fran? Oh, dirty nappies. You're wasting your time. It can't be that far down
27:01there, Roger. It was only thrown in this morning. Unless someone else got there first. You didn't
27:05tell anyone, did you? I already told you, they're not in there. Bingo. Bit of a risk,
27:16wasn't it? Tossing 40 grand's worth of drugs down a rubbish chute. No, I found the package
27:22and took the pills. I had to get him out of the flat, and I couldn't leave him. And the
27:26chute was the only place. Are you afraid the police might find it? What? They're not afraid
27:32of everything. When were you going to retrieve them? Sometime before Tuesday, I suppose, when
27:37they collect the bins. Tell me, Fran, were you going to unload the drugs as a job lot
27:41to a dealer or parcel them up and sell them on the street? I was never going to sell them.
27:44First way safer, second way you make a lot more dosh. Which was it going to be? I would
27:47never sell that heroin, Joe. You've got to believe me. So what were you going to do with
27:50it, Fran? Give it back. Oh, yeah. 40K's worth of prime smack, and you were going to give
27:57it away. No way. Back. What Michelle did was like suicide. She got no idea if she were
28:04ripping off. But you do. The guy who that heroin belongs to, he doesn't give a toss
28:09who he hurts all that badly. That's how he got where he is. You're not talking about
28:13Jimmy Mack, then? Sounds like you know him, Fran. Not anymore. But you used to. When I
28:27was in that world, yeah. How do you know him? He was around then on the street. He saw me,
28:38he took a liking to me. Did you sleep with him? For money? Drugs. He liked me. He liked
28:52me a lot, and he wanted to make it a regular arrangement. Exclusive of two. And then he
29:02just, he turned vicious like that. He just went nuts. He started hitting me. He split
29:16my lip. He cracked my cheekbone. And you know the worst thing? Is that he enjoyed it
29:25more than the sex. What was his name again? Do you think I want to be fished out the tents?
29:33Are you changing minds? No, I need to find Michelle and all just to tell her to get out
29:39I think she'll have left already if she's got any sense. Trouble if she ain't.
29:51Fran! What's wrong? It's him. Who? Him. What? He's here! God, Jo, you never said he was
29:59gonna be here! Ben and Nate brought him in. His name's Ryan Archer. He's the thug who
30:07assaulted Michelle. Right. Is that Jimmy's boss? Fran? Oh, God, no. Jo, please don't
30:18make me do this. Is it him, Fran? Is it the guy in the suit? Dacre? Jimmy Solisa? The
30:36man you saw is a solicitor, Fran. His name is Damien Dacre. He's Jimmy Mac's brief, and
30:42he's been here most of the day. How can I go on now, please? No. We need to talk to
30:49you. He got away, didn't he? He was gone by the time we realised it was him. Did he see
30:58me? No, he didn't. I'm sure of it. Good, because if he did, I'm dead already. Sir. Jimmy Mac's
31:06brief, Damien Dacre. What do you know about him? Nothing. Met him for the first time today.
31:10Did you see any ID? We never examine solicitors' IDs, you know that. What did he tell you? That
31:15he was here for James Bukowski and he worked for Basin and Judd Solisas. Can you call and
31:19check his co-show? Is there a problem? I think there could be, yes. Right. Cheers. Why won't
31:26you talk to us, Fran? You were chatting enough before. Excuse me, if you've got a second.
31:45Basin and Judd Solisas, the firm Damien Dacre gave us his employers, doesn't exist, and
31:50there's no solicitor registered anywhere with that name. He's not even a solicitor. No,
31:54wouldn't look like it. She's telling the truth, isn't she? He's our man. I think so. I can
32:01hardly believe it, Fran. He sat in on the interviews with Jimmy. He knows everything
32:05about the case, everything we've got on him, and more importantly, everything we haven't.
32:10Not that this is any consolation, but this is not the first time he's pulled this stunt.
32:15Earlier in the year, a brief with the name of Damien Dacre represented two heroin dealers
32:19that wouldn't talk at Barton Street. That's why they wouldn't talk to the boss we're sitting
32:22next to. So, er, what are we going to do now, then? Get Basin and Terry to interview Ryan
32:29Eicher while we re-interview Jimmy Mack. Yeah. Can you get someone to have a look at the CCTV?
32:34See if there's a clear picture of his face and that and Ben Aldi on it. Yeah, just keep
32:42his head down. He'll try and avoid the cameras. Ooh, stop it. Rewind a bit. There. Gotcha.
32:51Right, now we just need the computer to do its magic. So, tell us about the man who
33:00hired you to work over Rochelle Chapman. No brode over. Jimmy Mack's girlfriend. The young
33:06pregnant woman that you taped to a chair and burnt with cigarettes on the Maycroft. Don't
33:10know what you're on about. When you asked us to call your solicitor, did you know who
33:15would turn up? You had no idea, did you? Must have been a shuffler. We have mobile phone
33:23evidence that places you at the scene. We've also got forensics. You shouldn't drop cigarette
33:27butts, Ryan. Didn't your gran tell you about littering? How did you feel, Jimmy? Watching
33:32your boss find out that Rochelle had taken his heroin? Did you know that he would send
33:37one of his heavies round to her? I mean, you must have known he'd do something bad.
33:44You left your fingerprints everywhere. Alright, this case is literally done and dusted. You're
33:51going down for what you did to Rochelle for a long time. Now, what you need to ask yourself
33:56is, how can I make myself look a little bit better in front of the judge? Give us the
34:03man that hired you, Ryan. Tell us his real name, where to find him. That's the only
34:07thing that will help you now. If I was to do that, I'd be dead in a week. My gran and
34:12Tyson too, probably. So you might as well just take me back to my cell. You must really
34:17hate him for what he did to Rochelle. Give us his name, Jimmy, and we'll make him pay
34:22for it. Not saying anything. Yeah, well, somebody's got to talk to us, haven't they? They won't
34:30because they're terrified to speak. If we don't ID this guy, we haven't got anything.
34:3340 grand's worth of his heroin gov. That's what we got. And the beauty part is, he doesn't
34:37even know he got it. He thinks it's still out there. And what are we going to do with
34:40it? Offer it back to him. Some hill CID here. We've got your smack. Do you want to come
34:44by and pick it up? No, no. We'll use Fran. Oh, no, Sarge. He fancies her. He doesn't
34:49know she's involved. She's perfect. So Fran calls him up, says, hi, I've got your smack.
34:53Do you want to come by and pick it up? No, no, no. She doesn't mention the drugs. Not
34:56on the phone. She just says she wants to see him again. You wanted to ask him out on a
35:00date? He'll be suspicious. All Fran has to do is tell him the truth. Rochelle left the
35:04heroin with her. She hates the stuff now. She wants him to have it back. No strings.
35:07He takes it, we arrest him. Facial recognition, ID'd him. We got his form. Well, there's a
35:12novelty. His name really is Damien. Damien Tooker. His convictions read like a psychopath's
35:18checklist. His last was eight years ago for a malicious wounding, which he got a seven
35:22stretch for, but was out in three. Since then, nothing. Because he gets thugs like
35:26Ryan Archer to do his dirty work for him now. And scares people into silence. Well, here's
35:31a detail you'll like. I spoke to his old prison governor. Now, while he was inside, Tooker
35:35was a model prisoner. And he took a keen interest in studying the law and the justice system.
35:41They thought he was a reformed prisoner, so they gave him early release. He took a big
35:44risk coming here then, didn't he? Well, he's a control freak, isn't he? Doesn't trust anyone.
35:49Needs to know exactly what's going on. And if you want to warn your lackeys into keeping
35:53their mouths shut, what better way is there than the guy on top of the chair sitting right
35:57next to you in the interview room? Well, we can't ask Fran to do this, Gov. It's just
36:00too risky. She's a single mother, and she's got no one to think of. So, just have to think
36:05of something else. Well, we need to get this guy off the streets. We could try a different
36:10way, but that might take weeks, months even, so we need to minimise the risks. Joe, Max,
36:14your job. Persuade Fran to help us. No way. No way. If Damien's inside, you'll feel much
36:26safer, Fran. No, I won't. No, I won't, because Damien's got... Well, I wouldn't exactly call
36:35him friends, but he's got people who'll do whatever he wants. Yeah, so if he finds out
36:42that I help him, he'll be psyched. Oh, I would never be safe, ever. I won't. And is that
36:49your last word? Yeah. Yeah. I can't, Joe. I'm sorry. What if we pay you? I can take
37:00you on as an informant. Get you two grand, maybe. Enough to get you out of Sunhill. No,
37:11it's too dangerous. We can arrange protection until you move. We could help you with a move
37:15too. Move somewhere decent. Get a better life for Noah. I do want to get out of this dump.
37:21Well, there you go. OK. I'll get it sorted. Hey, no. No, please, Bill, because I couldn't
37:27face him. I'd just fall apart. I think that's enough, Sarge. OK. What happened to Noah when
37:36you went inside, Fran? I didn't go inside. The judge gave me a choice. So I went into
37:45rehab, and Noah went into temporary foster care. Well, you won't get a choice this time,
37:49Fran. Possession with intent, you'll go inside. I never meant to sell it. You know that. Forty
37:54grand's worth of smack? That's hardly personal use. You hid the drugs. You lied to us. You
37:59obstructed us the whole way down the line. You're doing it again now. I don't need you.
38:02Sit down, Fran. Sit down. I'll tell you something. I hope Noah likes foster homes, because he'll
38:10be living in one. You are a piece of work, do you know that? I'm doing you a favour.
38:13I'm taking Damien out of your life. You may not appreciate that now, but you will thank
38:17me for this later. Two grand, cash. I want it all up front. You'll get it as soon as
38:30Damien's in custody.
38:32Casey, camera and microphones. How are you feeling? Sick. Used. Just used.
39:02Do you want me to go on? You've been wearing a wire, so he'll be able to hear everything
39:05that's said. You're clear about what you have to do. I've got to give Damien the heroin.
39:10Try not to puke on his shoes. Walk away. It's not heroin, Fran. It's been substituted.
39:16It won't help. Viking powder, whatever it is. You offer Damien the package. You tell
39:20him you're returning his heroin. You don't want any money. You just want him to take
39:23it and leave you alone. Tell him you're off it now and that you don't want it around.
39:26And if he asks, just tell him the truth. Tell him Rochelle gave it to you. The important
39:30thing is Damien has to take it from you, okay? You can't throw it at him or toss it
39:35through the car window or chuck it on the floor from the pickup. We have to see it pass
39:39from your hands to his. Got it? Yeah, I got it. Have you got it? I've got it! Okay.
39:45Heroin's in position. Banks is in position. We're just waiting for the target now, Gav.
39:53It's him, Gav. He's here. Okay, thanks, Max. We're on.
39:58Radio silence, everyone.
40:29Damien?
40:33What's the matter?
40:35I've come to give you this back.
40:39What's that?
40:41It's the skag. Yeah, Jimmy Meg's girlfriend took it from the house this morning. She didn't
40:46know it was yours. She's sorry.
40:49How'd you get it?
40:51She just brought it round to my flat. She's a mate and she thought...
40:55Well, I don't know what she thought. Nothing clever.
40:59You're all right, Fran. You look frightened.
41:04I'm fine. It's yours. Just take it, please.
41:13I see you're shaking.
41:14I see you're shaking.
41:21Is that the only reason you came to see me tonight? Give me that.
41:34You have no idea how disappointed you've done us.
41:37Oh, no.
41:40This is going a bit too far. Are we all right with this?
41:45Do you want to go in?
41:46Disappointed? No.
41:48This is assault. We have to go in, Max.
41:50Martin's taken the package.
41:52Because I nearly didn't call you. I could have got the heroin.
41:56Do you some other way?
41:59You know what? I'm glad I didn't. Because now I've seen you.
42:03Pick it up.
42:04I've been lonely these last few months.
42:07I find that hard to believe.
42:08Hey, it's true.
42:13You were the last man I heard. Do you know that?
42:18No. No, I didn't.
42:23Then there hasn't been anyone else since.
42:29Come on, let's go somewhere.
42:31Let's go somewhere.
42:33Rather than now.
42:35Listen, can you calm down?
42:40Hang on.
42:41And we'll take this with us.
42:43We don't want to go and walk about again.
42:46It'll pay for some good times.
42:56He's got it. He's got it.
42:57He's taken the package. Go, go, go!
43:02On the car! On the car!
43:04Hands behind your back.
43:05What the fuck are you saying?
43:06I'm arresting you for conspiracy to supply heroin.
43:09You don't have to say anything, but it may harm your defence.
43:11What the hell is he?
43:12Something that you later rely on calling.
43:14Anything you do say may be given in evidence. Do you understand me?
43:18Is your son his name again?
43:19You lay a finger on him!
43:20Jamie's going to be an orphan.
43:22Shut up.
43:31I know this was tough for you today, Fran.
43:33Dad.
43:34What?
43:35I thought you cared.
43:36Listen, I'm just trying to be...
43:40OK.
43:41OK, you know what?
43:42That's the way you want to play it.
43:43Yeah, just give me my hand, because I want to get out of here.
43:45There you go. Two grand. You earned it.
43:48And the rest.
43:51Fran, wait, because we need to talk about your protection.
43:54Protection? Are you kidding?
43:56After the way you've just let me swing in the wind.
43:58Look, I am sorry about that.
43:59You're users.
44:01Tom, I don't trust you.
44:02I certainly don't trust him.
44:04I don't want you anywhere near me or Noah again.
44:07Fran, please, you're going to need protection.
44:09Just stay away!
44:10OK.
44:31Lift anywhere?
44:34We could have handled that better, don't you think?
44:36Which part?
44:37Fran.
44:38I know she had a hard time back there,
44:39but if we had got in before Tucker took the heroin off her,
44:41he'd have walked.
44:42And how do you think she'd be feeling then?
44:44What about her protection?
44:45Tucker can't do anything for a while.
44:48Let her cool off, give her a call tomorrow.
44:50What's up, Jo? You look like someone just died.
44:52I just don't like what you did to her.
44:54I think you coerced her into this.
44:56Come on, result, Jo.
44:57A good one, for us and for Fran.
45:00Try and look happy about it.
45:02See you tonight, Jo.
45:09I want you down to Jasmine Allen Estate.
45:11We've got a young woman with serious head injuries.
45:13Do you know her?
45:14She's been beaten half to death,
45:16and her 12-year-old son has gone AWOL.
45:18His name's Noah, by the way, and he's out there by himself.
45:21What was it you said about her son?
45:23Jamie's going to be an orphan.
45:25We need to find that kid, quick.
45:30I'm sorry.
45:32I'm sorry.
45:34I'm sorry.
45:36I'm sorry.
45:38I'm sorry.
46:08I'm sorry.
