The Bill S26E03 Duty Calls
The Bill S26E03 Duty Calls
Transcript
00:00Any unit from Sierrasca. Suspected burglary, 74 Harker Lane. Performance name, Amy Ryan.
00:16Sierrasca 2-1, show me dealing. Right, Callum, I need you to go back out to Leon.
00:22I don't know about that. I've just done my shift.
00:24Look, I've got nobody else. Please help me out. I'll take care of this lot.
00:28Thank you. Right. Come on, come on.
00:32Intruders still within the property. Proceed with caution.
00:41Quickly, please. He broke in. Right.
00:44Yeah, Amy, Amy. It's about time. I've had this man here for ages.
00:48What took you so long? Shut him up.
00:50What are you doing in my home? I need you to shut it.
00:54Who the hell are you? Calm down.
00:56Cut him, Leon.
01:00Which one?
01:27You OK? Right, OK. Can I take a swab from inside your mouth?
01:31I need you to open up nice and...
01:33Jeremy Preston, 33 years old. Works as a security guard, ironically enough.
01:37Suspected of burglary. Broke into Amy Ryan's flat.
01:40Any form? No trace. PNC or Kremitzer.
01:43One, two, three, four, five. Lovely.
01:46So he's never done it before?
01:49Maybe he's just never been caught before.
01:52We've printed him. We're waiting for live scan results.
01:55OK, if you could turn around and face the wall on your arch, please.
01:58DNA swabs have been collected. If he's done it before, we'll know soon enough.
02:02OK, hold still.
02:04Straight to the camera, please.
02:06His jacket and his shirt have been bagged.
02:08Found traces of blood, presumably his own.
02:11What happened to him? What?
02:13Onto his face.
02:15He got caught.
02:17Who by? Josh Hunt.
02:19The victim's boyfriend. Surprised him in the act.
02:22It didn't more than surprise him.
02:24Man's home is his castle, Jess.
02:26This isn't the Dark Ages.
02:28Sarge.
02:30Excuse me?
02:32This isn't the Dark Ages, Sarge.
02:36Josh Hunt came to his girlfriend's flat to find a stranger inside.
02:39He apprehended and detained the suspect using force that he deemed necessary and reasonable.
02:43It's all in our notes.
02:45What about forced entry?
02:47They left the window open, which is madness on Harker Lane.
02:50Pretty straightforward.
02:52So he was caught before he had a chance to steal anything?
02:54Custody search has shown that he had time to pocket at least one object.
02:58OK.
03:04Yes, it's mine.
03:06What's it doing here? It was stolen.
03:08Well, why was it on your finger? You know why.
03:11Are you engaged? Not exactly.
03:14Not yet.
03:16Where was the ring taken from?
03:18It was sitting in a bowl in the kitchen.
03:20Oh, so you didn't even try and keep it safe?
03:22Mr Hunt, we need to get the sequence of events correct before we talk to the suspect.
03:28So when exactly did you arrive home?
03:30I don't live there.
03:32I've got my own place. I arrived there just after 4.50am.
03:36But you have your own key? Yeah.
03:38I came in, I turned the kitchen lights on, and that's when I saw them trying to get out, so...
03:44I stopped them.
03:45Well, you did a bit more than that.
03:47And you slept through the entire thing?
03:49I'd worked late, so I was shattered. I didn't know Josh was coming over.
03:53And why did you go over in the middle of the night?
03:55I wanted to see Amy.
03:57We'd left things badly, and...
04:00I wanted to surprise her, try and smooth things over.
04:03At ten to five in the morning?
04:11I believe the correct pop culture term is booty call. How romantic.
04:16You're handling the Harper Lane burglary?
04:18Yeah, we're still waiting on authority for a section 18 search of the suspect's premises.
04:22I authorized that half an hour ago. Stone's already on his way down there.
04:26Is there a problem, Jo?
04:28No, not at all. Just a breakdown in communication, I'm sure, sir.
04:40Nothing in the bedroom.
04:43Nice DVD collection, Breakfast at Tiffany's.
04:45It was a present from a girl.
04:47As was the Home Alone box set, no doubt.
04:51It's your third double shift in a row, innit?
04:54Yeah.
04:55They are taking their time finding a new side, aren't they?
04:57They can take as long as they want.
04:59Listen, can I get a paracetamol? My head's banging.
05:02Where are they?
05:03In the kitchen cupboard.
05:06So what, you don't want the help?
05:08Leon, I don't want the interference.
05:11There's nothing here.
05:14You work at Roscoe Tower?
05:16Mm-hmm.
05:18It's an office block on Glanville Street.
05:20Yeah, I know.
05:21All right, let's go. CID can handle the rest of it.
05:24Come on.
05:29I've got to go.
05:31I was drunk.
05:32Do you often break into people's homes when you're drunk?
05:34I didn't know it was someone's home. It looked like a warehouse.
05:39I had a few drinks in a pub on Gunners Street, a few too many.
05:43I went to the alley to relieve myself.
05:46Nice.
05:47I saw the window was open. I needed somewhere to crash.
05:49Is there something wrong with your own home?
05:51Apart from the fact it's 20 minutes' walk away now.
05:54I just needed to get my head down, so I climbed in.
05:56Next thing I know, the light's turned on by a really angry man.
06:01And how long had you been inside before that happened?
06:04I don't know. A few minutes. Five, maybe.
06:07But not long enough to realise it was someone's home.
06:09I realised when I bumped into the sofa.
06:11And the ring?
06:12There was something in a bottle which turned out to be a ring.
06:17I stuck it in my pocket. I don't know why.
06:20Please, I know how this looks.
06:22I just want to put it all behind me, go back to work.
06:26Is that possible?
06:27Just one more thing, Jeremy. Have you ever met Amy Ryan before tonight?
06:31No, of course not.
06:33It's just that you work at Roscoe Tower, and so does she.
06:38Really?
06:39But you've never met her before?
06:40No.
06:43It's a big building.
06:47I don't know.
06:48It's a big building.
06:52So he's pleading guilty to burglary?
06:54He claims it was a misunderstanding, but yes.
06:56OK, well, let's caution him and release him.
06:59Judd, did you ask two of my officers to do a door-to-door in Harker Lane?
07:02Well, I requested it. I didn't demand it.
07:04I thought Preston held his hands up and interviewed him.
07:06He did, but I don't think it's quite as simple as that.
07:08He confessed. How's it more complicated?
07:10Jeremy Preston works at the Roscoe Tower.
07:12I know. Why's that important?
07:13Amy Ryan works there too.
07:15Right, well, she didn't recognise him, though, did she?
07:17So it could just be a coincidence.
07:18Just seems a bit odd to me.
07:21A witness saw someone matching Mr Preston's description
07:24breaking into Ryan's house at 4.30am.
07:26Are you sure? That's 20 minutes before Josh Hunt arrived.
07:29He was there for 20 minutes. What was he doing?
07:32Let's get Eddie down there, check it out.
07:39So what's happening now? What do you need us for?
07:41Once Eddie's finished, we'll need you to take another look round
07:43in case anything else is missing.
07:45Right, this way. I can't tell you what he was doing,
07:48but I can tell you where he was doing it.
07:51Fingerprints coming through the window and a small blood trail.
07:57A suspect might have injured himself, I'm not sure,
08:00but it all predates the struggle of Mr Hunt.
08:04Anyway...
08:06Right, through here.
08:10Goes to the toilet.
08:14That's the bowl he gets the ring from.
08:23Helps himself to some milk.
08:32He picks up a knife.
08:36I mean, why would he do that? What's his problem?
08:39It gets weirder.
08:40Can you just give us a sec?
08:47All right.
08:49We've got his prints here.
08:55He lays on the wall.
09:00What was he doing in here?
09:02Who knows?
09:11Amy?
09:15Thanks, Eddie.
09:17Amy?
09:20I want to know what he was doing in Amy's bedroom.
09:22He was stood there while I was asleep.
09:26What would have happened if Josh hadn't come over?
09:29We're going to interview Mr Preston again,
09:31and it's worth bearing in mind that he had had a lot to drink,
09:34so it could well be that he was just disorientated.
09:37Amy, I don't want to alarm you,
09:39but I think you should know that Jeremy Preston works in the same building as you.
09:44Oscar Teller?
09:45Yeah, as a security guard.
09:47Are you sure?
09:49I've never noticed him. He's a bit odd, isn't he?
09:51He's a bit more than odd.
09:52It could just be a coincidence.
09:53Like I said, we're going to speak to him again.
09:55Oh, what? That's it, is it?
09:56Don't worry, we'll get to the bottom of it, all right?
10:00Now, do you have somewhere that you can go?
10:03Yeah, work.
10:04Yeah, but he's going to be there, isn't he?
10:05Don't worry, we'll tell him to keep his distance.
10:08Even so, it's probably best that you keep out of his way, OK?
10:11Do you understand?
10:13Yeah.
10:18Amy.
10:20Nice one.
10:21She's going to be jumping at shadows now.
10:23Well, maybe she should be.
10:28You told us earlier that you'd been in the flat for just a few minutes
10:31before you were discovered as a housewife.
10:33A few minutes before you were discovered, is that right?
10:35That was all it seemed like.
10:36All right, what were you doing during that time?
10:41It was all a bit of a blur, to be honest.
10:43We have a witness who places you in the flat for at least 20 minutes.
10:4720?
10:49Forensic evidence shows that you moved around quite freely.
10:52In fact, you moved from the living room to the bathroom to the kitchen
10:56and then to Amy Ryan's bedroom.
10:58What were you doing in her bedroom?
11:00I told you, I can't remember.
11:02I was drunk.
11:05Am I being accused of something else here?
11:09Look, I know I messed up,
11:11but at the end of the day, I'm the only one that got hurt, aren't I?
11:18I can't believe we released him.
11:20We've charged him with burglary, now it's up to the CPS.
11:23But it amounts to the same thing.
11:24There was no formal, just be cautioned, or he stole the ring.
11:27And nothing's changed?
11:28With all due respect, sir, everything's changed.
11:30He was in her bedroom, using a toilet, toying with kitchen knives.
11:33It does sound sinister.
11:34But what's the crime?
11:36Sinister's not a crime.
11:37Aggravated burglary.
11:40I am convinced he went into that flat to do more than just steal a ring.
11:43Yeah, but you know as well as I do that proving intent to harm is almost impossible, Jo.
11:47And Preston is no form of any kind.
11:49It's one thing to drunkenly break into someone's house,
11:51but we're talking about a whole new level here.
11:53We simply don't have the evidence to justify holding him.
11:56Now, I agree there could be more to this than meets the eye, but...
12:01Is that Amy Ryan's office?
12:04Sir, Roscoe from 30, show me Dealing.
12:06I'm coming with you.
12:11So, what's up with Stone?
12:13He's been giving Jo a rough ride all morning.
12:15He's been pulling double shifts for a month.
12:17The two bodies light in uniform, not to mention a sergeant.
12:19Yeah.
12:20So, any news on replacements?
12:22Well, I've been asking, you know, but we're over budget.
12:24We're overworked and we're understaffed.
12:26And it's starting to show, unfortunately.
12:28Callum having a go at Jo's is the prime example of that.
12:30Well, I wouldn't worry about Jo. She can give as good as she gets.
12:33Yeah, and that's what we thought.
12:34Let's talk about it in my office.
12:47He said you were going to talk to him!
12:48Calm yourself down, Josh.
12:54Mind your head.
12:56So, what happened?
12:58We were sitting in the security office having a cup of tea
13:01when this guy bursts in and gets with Jeremy.
13:05I've never seen anything like it.
13:07You Mr Preston's boss?
13:08Supervisor.
13:10Mr Faraday, look, it's nothing, it's just a silly argument.
13:13Can we just drop it?
13:14I'm not having it.
13:16That's assault in my book.
13:18Can you take us to see Amy Ryan, please?
13:20Of course. She's through here.
13:21Thanks.
13:23You wait in the office there. We'll come and find you.
13:29Thanks.
13:31No, it's OK.
13:34This isn't Josh's fault.
13:36He walked me to work to make sure everything was OK.
13:38You said he wasn't allowed to approach me.
13:40He's been at my desk, in my desk, in my locked drawer.
13:43How do you know?
13:46He left this for me to find.
13:48It's a muffin?
13:49Yeah, it's a muffin, a chocolate muffin like I have every day.
13:52How does he know that?
13:53Dear Amy, it was a mistake. I hope we can get past this.
13:59This is harassment.
14:00I don't take Mr Preston's statement.
14:03Come on, I'll buy you a cup of coffee.
14:14It wasn't locked.
14:15At least it wasn't when I was there.
14:17Well, you'd have the keys, wouldn't you?
14:19Be in security.
14:20We've got the keys to doors and cupboards, but not the private desks.
14:24Look, I came into work. I felt really bad about what I'd done.
14:27So I looked her up. I just thought I'd leave her a note to say sorry.
14:31I know I wasn't supposed to approach her, but what else was I supposed to do?
14:34Stay away.
14:35I know, I was just...
14:38This has gone way too far.
14:40It's been blown completely out of proportion.
14:42Look, I understand why the bloke's upset, but this is paranoid.
14:45What girl doesn't like chocolate muffins?
14:50I suggest you go home.
14:52You haven't had any sleep.
14:54Let everyone calm down a bit.
14:57Maybe you're right.
14:59I'm shattered.
15:01It's clear with my boss.
15:06I don't usually scare easy, but you saw the card, didn't you?
15:10He says it's an apology.
15:15What do you think it is?
15:18I don't know, a message?
15:22The card's from Acetone.
15:24It's close to work, and I was drinking there last night after work.
15:28Why didn't you mention this before?
15:31Because I didn't want Josh to know.
15:34He can be a bit...
15:37You know.
15:39Protective.
15:42So what do you think it means?
15:43That he was there, that he was following me, stalking me? I don't know.
15:48I sound crazy, but I don't know.
15:50You don't sound crazy. You sound scared.
16:01The person doesn't want to pursue assault charges,
16:03so as far as he's concerned, the whole affair's got way out of hand.
16:06I'm not sure that Amy Ryan shares that view, Gough.
16:08First he pops up in a home,
16:10then he leaves an apology written on a card taken from a bar she was drinking in last night.
16:14She's convinced that this is just the beginning.
16:16What?
16:17Of a harassment campaign.
16:19Tell her to call back when she's got evidence of a crime he's actually committed,
16:21rather than one she thinks he's going to commit.
16:23I'm sorry, Joe,
16:24but it's just as likely that she's reading too much into a couple of coincidences.
16:29She never mentioned that bar.
16:30Maybe it didn't seem relevant to her at the time.
16:32If Jeremy was there, and if he followed her home,
16:35that puts the burglary in a whole new light, right?
16:39Go and question him again about his movements last night.
16:42But go carefully, yeah?
16:54Acetone's the local drinking hall.
16:56I'm trying to pick up a card there sooner or later.
16:58Do you want to take a seat?
17:03So, is that really the reason Amy freaked out?
17:06So you weren't there last night?
17:07I told you, I was at a pub in Gunner Street.
17:10Look, sorry, what's the point of all this?
17:13Amy Ryan's concerned.
17:15About what?
17:16About you.
17:18Well, she doesn't need me.
17:20Well, let's look at it from her point of view.
17:22You broke into her home, entered her bedroom.
17:25Then, having been cautioned for burglary and warned to keep away from her,
17:28you left a note written on a card taken from a bar that she was drinking at
17:31just hours before you broke in.
17:33It didn't happen like that, did it?
17:34Well, how did it happen?
17:37What were you doing in her bedroom?
17:40While she was sleeping?
17:41I think you should just let this go.
17:44Why is that?
17:45Look, I went in, I stole a ring, I got a beating for it twice.
17:49What more is there to say?
17:50Let's just drop it.
17:51Amy Ryan is a very scared woman.
17:53She deserves an explanation, don't you think?
17:55What about her boyfriend?
17:57He deserves to know why a stranger was in his girlfriend's house.
18:00This is the last thing he wants to know.
18:02Did something happen, Jeremy, when you were in the bedroom?
18:14What's Amy been saying?
18:15Why don't you tell us what happened?
18:21We made love.
18:24Amy and I hooked up at Acetone last night.
18:26We were in a pub, we were drinking.
18:29Amy and I hooked up at Acetone last night.
18:32She was letting her hair down.
18:35One thing led to another and she invited me back.
18:38You went home together?
18:39No, she went on ahead.
18:41Probably to check the coast was clear.
18:43I came later, she left the window open for me.
18:47Didn't want anyone to see me going in the front, I guess.
18:52We made love in the shower.
18:54She went back to bed.
18:56I used the bathroom.
18:58Felt a bit hungry, so I poked around in the fridge.
19:01And then Josh came back.
19:03Unexpectedly.
19:04Why didn't you mention any of this earlier?
19:07To protect her.
19:09Amy and I have been seeing each other for a while.
19:11And we had to keep it quiet because Josh...
19:15Well, he's violent.
19:16I've got the bruises to prove it.
19:18The only reason I took the ring is because she asked me to get rid of it.
19:23Do you really expect us to believe that you're having an affair with Amy Ryan?
19:29Her favourite colour is blue.
19:31It's the colour of her mother's eyes.
19:33Her favourite song is The Unforgettable Fire by U2.
19:37Her favourite drink is a mojito.
19:42She says her favourite film is Breakfast at Tiffany's.
19:44But it's actually Home Alone 2.
19:48She has a mole on her right shoulder that she worries is growing since a holiday in Marbella last September.
19:54And the only reason she refused to marry Josh...
19:58...was because she had a miscarriage two months ago.
20:02She never even told him she was pregnant.
20:05Which, I guess, was enough to show her that she didn't really love him.
20:12Look, if Amy's regretting anything that happened between us...
20:15...if she is feeling guilty because of Josh...
20:19...or scared of him...
20:21...tell her I understand.
20:29He's lying. This is insane.
20:31I've never seen this man in my life.
20:34You work with him.
20:35I don't...
20:36We work in the same building, that's it.
20:39But a lot of the things that he told us about you are true, right?
20:41Apart from I've never spoken to him before today, I don't understand.
20:49Josh and I had just had a big row.
20:52I needed some space, so yes, I went for a drink, but not with him.
20:56You went home alone?
20:59Yes.
21:00But you didn't wake up alone.
21:02Look, this isn't about getting plastered and regretting it.
21:05This man knows things, personal things, and I don't know how or why.
21:12What happens now?
21:14Well, I'm sorry, Amy, he's never been under arrest.
21:16He's just been cautioned for the burglary.
21:18This isn't about the burglary, do you not see?
21:20He's stalking me.
21:23Oh, I get it, it's his word against mine.
21:29Everything he told you about last night is not true, do you understand that?
21:35Sorry to interrupt, Josh has been cautioned for a saw and he's free to go.
21:38Mr Preston chose not to press charges.
21:40Thank you.
21:44Amy, why don't you stay here for a bit?
21:46If it'll make you feel better.
21:48Amy, why don't you stay here for a bit?
21:50If it'll make you feel better.
21:52Yeah, thanks.
21:54Yeah?
22:09What do you think?
22:10Oh, he is plausible.
22:11Maybe they did have an affair and Amy's trying to conceal it from Josh.
22:14No way, I know this girl.
22:15She's impetuous, but she's not lying.
22:17She did say she'd been out drinking last night,
22:19so we had to consider the possibility that she can't remember what happened.
22:22Dear Amy, it was a mistake.
22:25I hope we can get past this.
22:27You see, why would you write an apology on a business card,
22:30as opposed to a post-it note or a bit of paper?
22:32I'm not sure it is an apology.
22:34He never actually says sorry, he refers to a mistake.
22:37And we thought the mistake was breaking into the flat.
22:40What if he means something else?
22:42Gov, Amy is frightened.
22:45Now, I know this isn't clear,
22:47but we can't wait for him to harm her before we do something.
22:50What do you suggest?
22:53We investigate him.
22:55For harassment.
22:57OK.
22:59OK, get the CCTV from the bar.
23:01One of them's lying, it's going to be obvious from that which one it is.
23:03Remember, you need two separate incidents to make any sort of case.
23:06The burglary doesn't count.
23:08Yeah, Joe, CPS won't go anywhere near this.
23:11Not over a chocolate muffin.
23:16That's her, isn't it? Yeah.
23:21Jeremy was telling the truth about one thing.
23:23She's definitely letting her hair down, isn't she?
23:26But no sign of Jeremy.
23:29It must be there. Can you fast-forward it?
23:34Hang on, who's that? Is that him?
23:36Don't think so.
23:39No, it's... No, it's not him.
23:41It's not him.
23:43Nice. No, it's not him.
23:46Straight for the bottle.
23:48She's going for it, isn't she?
23:50Yeah.
23:54Yeah, it's getting a bit cosy.
23:5623.50.
23:59She doesn't want it to go too far, does she?
24:03Is she leaving?
24:07That's not him. Definitely, definitely not him.
24:1023.51.
24:14That's him. That's him.
24:19Do they know each other, then?
24:21He's a bit uptight, isn't he?
24:24What's he saying to him, then?
24:29He's telling him to clear off, isn't he?
24:31Whatever he is.
24:33There he goes. 23.51.
24:38She's going to come back, isn't she? Yeah.
24:40There she goes.
24:44She's taken her number.
24:46What's been wrong with that?
24:49Didn't she say she didn't meet anyone?
24:54That's plain.
24:57She's got a co, hasn't she? Are they leaving together?
25:02They're leaving together.
25:04Right, I think it's about time Amy Ryan told us the full story.
25:08Yep.
25:13Why didn't you tell us?
25:16That I was out on the lash?
25:18Out in the pool? You think I'm proud of that?
25:22I was always in control, knew what I was doing.
25:28When Josh proposed, it was such a shock, you know?
25:32I mean, we've been together long enough, I suppose, seven years.
25:36But we like our own space. I never saw it coming.
25:40I laughed.
25:42I know, not good.
25:45He was really angry.
25:48He had every right to be, but I still...
25:52I still provoked him.
25:55Do you think you were trying to drive him away?
25:57Yeah, maybe.
25:59I just needed time, needed to know.
26:01It's a big commitment.
26:04I think that's what last night was about.
26:07Going to the bar, having some fun.
26:09Testing what I feel for Josh.
26:12And did it give you any answers?
26:15Well, yeah, there was this guy.
26:17Pretty cute, all flash.
26:20He asked me for my number, so I gave it to him.
26:24Made it clear he didn't want any strings attached, and neither did I, so...
26:33I took him back to the flat, and we had sex.
26:36And we had sex.
26:39But it was wrong, it just felt wrong.
26:42I miss Josh.
26:46And I don't know how I'm going to explain all this to him, but I have to tell him the truth.
26:52I do, don't I?
26:57Amy, this bloke, what was his name?
27:01Craig.
27:02His surname?
27:04I don't know, I didn't ask, but this is my personal life.
27:06What's it got to do with the fact that man is stalking me?
27:09Because, Amy, you were right.
27:11He was in the bar watching you.
27:13He spoke to Craig.
27:16You think they know each other?
27:17I don't know, darling, but if we can find Craig, then we might get some answers.
27:25Are you alright?
27:27No.
27:28No, not really.
27:31Look, why don't we get Josh down here and keep you company?
27:35I mean, the coffee here is really nice.
27:43How far have you got, Jo?
27:44Amy and Ryan did have a one-night stand, but not with Jeremy Preston, it was with some bloke called Craig.
27:49Did you get a sign out?
27:50No. Jeremy was at Acetone, he spoke to Craig briefly, but that's all we've got.
27:54Thing is, Jo, you've proved the guy's a weirdo. Unfortunately, being a weirdo is not a chargeable offence.
27:59Well, luckily for Ade.
28:05I got the labs back from the Harker Lane crime scene. Something else.
28:09What is it?
28:11Well, it's the blood I found at the flat around the window.
28:14It matches some blood samples I took from his clothes.
28:17It would, wouldn't it?
28:18Yeah, well, the thing is, that blood, it's not Mr Preston's.
28:21What are you talking about, Ade? The guy had his nose broken nearly, there was blood everywhere.
28:24So, there's that, but he had someone else's blood on his clothes when he climbed through the window.
28:29Rhesus negative, so that narrows it down to at least 15% of the UK population.
28:33Now, that's got to be significant, right?
28:35Yeah, but why?
28:36Because blood dries really quickly, to have left a smear on the window means it was still fresh.
28:39Sir, can we widen the search at Amy's place?
28:42Oh, I don't think we've got the bodies to do that.
28:45Sir?
28:48Right, Ade, you get a team together, check it out, we don't spend all day there.
28:52I'm just going to go out, sir.
28:53Yeah.
29:22Yeah, make sure you go around, careful where you step in, go around.
29:35What have we got?
29:36There's blood in it, lots of it.
29:38Someone was hurt here, quite badly hurt.
29:42Scalp wound, very messy.
29:44Any idea who it belongs to?
29:45No.
29:46All we know is that Jeremy had blood on him when he entered Amy's flat.
29:49Do you think he was involved in a fight?
29:51No CCTV?
29:52No, and there's no witnesses either, because we canvassed this area earlier.
29:55Sarge, doesn't look like it's from a mug and it's still got the cash and cards inside.
30:02There we go.
30:03That's the bar.
30:06Now, what's the betting that that's Amy Ryan's number?
30:09Yeah.
30:10There's our boy, Craig Wilkins.
30:14OK, nice one, Neil.
30:22First bed on your left.
30:24Thank you.
30:28Mr Wilkins, Sergeant Stone, DC Masters, Sunhill.
30:32How's your head, Mr Wilkins?
30:34Not good.
30:36Can you tell us what happened here?
30:38I don't know, I really can't remember.
30:41One minute I'm walking home, the next I'm lying on the pavement, blood running down my face.
30:46I thought I was dying, it was everywhere.
30:49Scalp wounds will do that to you.
30:51Did you see who attacked you?
30:53I thought it was a mugging, I threw my wallet at him, I didn't get a look at his face.
30:58Whereabouts do you live, sir?
31:00Oldman Street.
31:02Oldman Street, that's the other side of town, isn't it?
31:04Where had you been?
31:06I don't remember.
31:08Let me try and fill in a few blanks for you.
31:10You were at Acetone last night.
31:13At 2.42am you left with a woman called Amy Ryan.
31:17You went back to her flat, had sex, and were attacked in the street as you left.
31:21How do you know that?
31:22We think we know who did it.
31:23But we need your help to prove it.
31:28All I heard was a voice.
31:32Stay away from her, she doesn't belong to you.
31:36A boyfriend? I don't know.
31:37Not quite.
31:38We'll need you to do a voice identification for us.
31:41No.
31:43I don't think you understand, I can't do that.
31:48My wife.
31:49I don't think you understand, sir.
31:51The man who did this to you is dangerous.
31:53You were lucky, the next person might not be.
31:59I'm sorry, I can't help you.
32:04We all know it won't end here.
32:07Last night Jeremy followed Amy Ryan to a bar, followed her home, lay in wait for Craig Wilkins and violently assaulted him.
32:14The question is why?
32:15Jealousy.
32:16He's acting like the jealous boyfriend, it might be a fantasy, but it's what he believes.
32:20Believes enough to break into her home, stand in her bedroom while she sleeps, pick up a knife to do God knows what with.
32:25I mean, do you see the trajectory?
32:27He's got to be stopped.
32:29I honestly believe he broke into that flat to kill her.
32:32We've got to do something.
32:33But unless we can get Craig Wilkins to make a statement, we can't charge Preston with the assault he has committed, let alone the one that he might commit.
32:41Joe's right, he's obsessed.
32:43If Hunt hadn't walked in in the morning, then she could well have been raped or killed.
32:47Aggravated burglary is a 14 year sentence.
32:50Yeah, but we need to prove that Preston intended to harm Amy.
32:53That's right, and we don't have the evidence, Joe.
32:57Maybe we could get it in interview.
33:00He must have been stalking her for months to know so much about her.
33:04If we expose that, he might crack.
33:07Go on.
33:08Well, let's start with his lies.
33:10He broke into her desk, let's start with that and move on.
33:13That's a long shot, Joe.
33:15It's all we've got, Gov.
33:20Go for it.
33:22It's workspace, this is pretty much it.
33:25Give us a minute.
33:26Other than patrols, this is what Jeremy does.
33:29He sits here and watches.
33:30Right.
33:31We're going to need the CCTV from Amy Ryan's office floor.
33:34Do you have that?
33:35Sure, we hang on to it for a week before wiping her.
33:37Which is Amy Ryan's floor?
33:42There you go.
33:43Thanks very much.
33:44Thank you.
33:46Did you ever have a crush on someone at school?
33:49Sure.
33:52Do you remember that feeling, like your guts are all tied up, dry mouth?
33:56Or for someone you barely speak to.
33:58Well, imagine feeling like that every single day.
34:03I don't know.
34:04I don't know.
34:05I don't know.
34:06I don't know.
34:07I don't know.
34:08I don't know.
34:09I don't know.
34:10I don't know.
34:11I don't know.
34:12I don't know.
34:13I don't know.
34:15Every day you have to look at the person who makes you feel like that.
34:19From the moment they walk into the building,
34:21as they go to their desk, to the coffee point,
34:23laugh with their friends, write their emails.
34:26Every single minute of every single day.
34:30Dry mouth.
34:31Guts churning.
34:35Drive you mad.
34:40Got that CCTV that you wanted.
34:43Grab it.
34:50What are you expecting to see?
34:52Not sure.
34:53Let you know when we get on.
34:57Try taking the disc out and putting it back in again.
35:13What's happened?
35:14Not sure.
35:15Looks as though it's been wiped, but it shouldn't be until Monday morning.
35:18Who's got access to it? Who could have done that?
35:20Well, me and Jeremy.
35:40Her favourite colour is blue.
35:42It's the colour of her mother's eyes.
35:46She has a mole on her right shoulder that she worries is growing
35:48since a holiday in Marbella last September.
35:52Her favourite drink is a mojito.
35:55She says her favourite film is Breakfast at Tiffany's.
35:59But it's actually her moan too.
36:03Her favourite song is The Unforgettable Fire by U2.
36:07And the only reason she refused to marry Josh
36:11was because two months ago she had a miscarriage.
36:15She never even told him she was pregnant.
36:18She never told him she was pregnant, she felt terrible.
36:20That was enough to show her that she didn't really love him.
36:24So it was all a fantasy?
36:26Jeremy used these truths to create a fantasy with himself at the heart of it.
36:30And he genuinely believes it?
36:32Genuinely believes that she told him all this?
36:34Genuinely believes that she told him all this rather than in spying on him?
36:37Well, he has to believe that all the fantasy he's created comes crashing down.
36:40What happens if and when the fantasy world does come crashing down?
36:43But it did in the bar last night when he saw Amy Ryan pick up a complete stranger.
36:47And I need to make him face facts that no amount of lies can make this real.
36:58I've already told you.
37:00This is silly.
37:03I've never hurt Amy.
37:05You really care for her, don't you?
37:08I have a connection.
37:10And when did you first realise that?
37:13I don't know.
37:15I noticed her, we got her talking one day and suddenly she was there.
37:21I knew we were meant to be together.
37:23What was it you noticed about her?
37:25She's nice.
37:27She was nice to me.
37:30Sir, sir.
37:34Tell me about the first time that you met her.
37:36How's she getting on?
37:38She's doing well.
37:39Yeah, when you properly met her, isn't it?
37:41She's been at it a while, entering his world.
37:44It's tough because he completely believes every word he's saying.
37:48She was looking at me.
37:50Wasn't that special?
37:52She needs to burst his bubble.
37:54We laughed, you know.
37:56We danced.
37:58You danced at the Christmas party, was that?
38:00Yeah, yeah.
38:02Did she tell you?
38:03No, Jeremy.
38:05Amy doesn't remember you at all, apart from this morning when you broke into her flat.
38:10I didn't break in, I was invited.
38:12No, that's a lie.
38:13That's not real, you made that up.
38:17I don't have to listen to this.
38:20We shared things.
38:22Personal things.
38:23She didn't share things with you, you stole them.
38:25You stole her secrets and her feelings and her life.
38:28This is all a fantasy.
38:30You're reality, I'll show you reality, pal.
38:33For the benefit of the tape, I'm now showing the suspect exhibit JM1 through 5,
38:38photographs of Amy Ryan with her partner, Josh Hunt.
38:42She doesn't love him.
38:43No?
38:44I know she doesn't.
38:46Maybe you're right.
38:47Maybe that's why she was kissing a stranger in the acetone bar last night.
38:50Take them away.
38:51Why, Jeremy?
38:52Why, Jeremy?
38:54See, there's Amy, kissing someone she'd met less than an hour ago.
38:58We knew you were there.
38:59Are you somewhere in the background, watching her take him home?
39:04To her bed?
39:05Take them away.
39:15What do you want from me?
39:16I want the truth, Jeremy.
39:18I want to know what you were doing in Amy Ryan's flat last night.
39:21What were you thinking? What were you feeling?
39:23I don't know.
39:27You see, a year ago at the Christmas party, you were doing whatever it is you usually do,
39:32when suddenly you found this attractive, sexy, funny woman talking to you, noticing you.
39:40You could hardly believe it.
39:42But you cherished it.
39:44And the next day, you passed her in the corridor.
39:46You probably went to say hi or wave at her, and she walked right past you at Bolivias.
39:52She didn't even notice you, let alone remember you.
39:54Stop.
39:55So you pretended it was something else.
39:56You pretended that she did notice you, but that it was a secret between yourselves.
40:04And every day you watched her come into work, sit at her desk, live her life.
40:08Sit at her desk, live her life.
40:12While you shared the whole thing behind a camera.
40:15Just like that one there.
40:17She invited me into her life.
40:21You can't do that and not expect consequences.
40:29She couldn't ignore what she'd done.
40:32She had to be shown.
40:33Shown.
40:37She needed to hurt, like she hurt me.
40:46You wanted to hurt her.
40:49No.
40:58Kill her.
41:00Sit down!
41:21Interview terminated at 1758.
41:30Jeremy Preston, I'm arresting you for assault.
41:48You alright?
41:49Yes, thanks.
41:51You want to see me, sir?
41:52Yeah, take a seat, Jo.
41:53Did some good work today?
41:55The usual, sir.
41:57So how did you get on with Sergeant Stern?
41:59Er, fine.
42:00You know me, I love a bit of macho in the office.
42:03It can be tricky sometimes.
42:05Well, he's been putting the hours in, hasn't he?
42:06He's tired.
42:07We've all been there.
42:08Yeah.
42:09And that's a problem.
42:11Also, there's been some communication issues.
42:14We need your help.
42:15How?
42:16Uniform need another sergeant to work alongside him.
42:19I've got an idea.
42:20How?
42:21Uniform need another sergeant to work alongside Sergeant Stern.
42:25Somebody strong.
42:26Right, I suppose so, yeah.
42:31Me?
42:33If you take it.
42:36You see, we need some, er, some balance in the department.
42:39You seem to have a good working relationship with Stern.
42:42The troops look up to you.
42:48Come on, Jo.
42:49Help us out.
42:56How's the coffee?
42:58You lied.
43:01So it's all over then?
43:02Yeah.
43:03Yes, it's over.
43:06Thank you.
43:07I had no idea.
43:09I can't believe I never even noticed him.
43:12That's how obsession starts, I guess, by not being noticed.
43:16What are you going to do now?
43:18I'm going to stay with Josh for a few days, at least.
43:22She told me.
43:28Well, congratulations.
43:31Lovely place for an engagement.
43:35Yeah.
43:36So, er, we should be getting off.
43:38Yeah, don't blame you.
43:41Thanks.
43:47You take care now.
43:55Thanks.
43:56Bye.
44:01You off?
44:02Yeah.
44:03Need a lift anywhere?
44:04No, you're all right. I need to stretch my legs.
44:06I've got some thinking to do.
44:08Right, I'll see you around.
44:09Yeah, you will.
44:10Sarge.
44:18There was a man in my house.
44:19I found my dad.
44:20I think he's dead.
44:22Right, hello.
44:23PC Taylor.
44:24Sergeant Walsh, I can't hear you.
44:26No visible signs of blood,
44:27but it suggests it's been wiped down.
44:30He studies law,
44:31so he knew exactly how to cover up the murder scene
44:33by faking a burglary.
44:34The only question is how far the mother's in on it.
44:36And I don't think she's in on it, Gav.
44:37I think she did it.
44:38And there's me thinking I'd missed CID.
45:18Thanks.
45:19Bye.
