00:00You want me to go in for you?
00:07No, we'll both go.
00:27Judith!
00:30It's not my fault!
00:37It's not my fault!
00:39Judy!
00:41You don't care.
00:42Oh!
00:43It's not my fault!
00:45It's not my fault!
00:47It's not my fault!
00:49It's my fault!
00:51It's not my fault!
00:54It's not my fault!
00:56I don't care!
00:58It's not my fault!
00:59It's not my fault!
01:30Are you there?
01:37Ah.
01:40Will I pass?
01:42Just don't drop that scarf in your gravy.
01:44I don't mean...
01:45Oh, those shoes are new.
01:48Bought at the market yesterday.
01:50Cheap shoes from the market for the mid-lanx Women of the Year luncheon.
01:53What can you be thinking?
01:54It wasn't the price. They matched the dress.
01:57Oh, yeah.
01:58And you'd have to have them at once.
02:00The heels are just slightly higher than I'm used to.
02:04No, no, no.
02:04Now, come on, Robert. The taxi will be here in a minute.
02:07Now, tell me how nice I look.
02:09There was a time when praise wasn't altogether foreign to your nature.
02:13You'll do us credit.
02:15You look wonderful.
02:16You always do in my eyes.
02:18Don't over-egg the pudding, Robert. Come on.
02:20Geoffrey, she's ready. Stand by to burst into spontaneous applause as the Woman of the Year descends our staircase.
02:29One of the Women of the Year. There are others, you know.
02:32After you, my lady.
02:33Oh, great.
02:37Come on with the taxi.
02:43Betty!
02:45It's Swainfrock.
02:45Are you all right?
02:49No, I'm not.
02:51She's hurt, Mr. Wayne.
02:51She came down them stairs like a sack of coals.
02:54I've phoned the doctor and the lunch people to tell them she can't come.
02:58You do no such thing.
03:00It's an honour, this lunch is, and I don't intend to miss it.
03:03I'll give you a sack of coals.
03:25These life-or-death struggles with desperate criminals, Mrs. Wayne-Fruel.
03:29Oh, we so admire your courage.
03:36Mrs. Wainfrock, I'm Helen Rance.
03:39I have a job for you if you want it.
03:41This is hardly the place.
03:42DCI Adams told me to look out for you.
03:45Oh.
03:46Though he didn't warn me about...
03:50Oh, it only happened this morning. It was the shoes.
03:54Pride is painful.
03:55Well, I'm bound to say it's all to the good for our purposes.
03:58I'll wait for you outside.
04:00The DCI will join us.
04:09There's no doubt it was an accidental death.
04:12She came out of the chemist, heard her husband call her name,
04:15looked up, saw him, panicked, and ran straight out into the road.
04:18The van driver never had a chance of stopping in time.
04:21What was her husband doing there?
04:24He says he was looking for her.
04:26In Ackersley?
04:27He lives in Blackburn.
04:29Ever since she took the child and left, he's been going out every day,
04:32checking all towns within 20 miles,
04:34hanging around the shopping streets and the markets,
04:36social services, DSS, hoping to see her.
04:39Every day?
04:40He's unemployed.
04:42Nothing better to do, he says.
04:45I don't like it.
04:46It doesn't feel right.
04:49Why should he pick Ackersley on the very morning
04:51his wife goes in to collect their child benefit?
04:54It doesn't feel right to me, either.
04:56That's why I've come to you.
04:58Mrs. Rance chairs the committee which founded the battered women's refuge.
05:02He must have known where to find her.
05:05You think somebody told him?
05:15The women need time and space to sort themselves out.
05:19And to get right away where the men can't find them.
05:22Right.
05:23Even so, most refuges are in towns.
05:26It means they're hard to hide.
05:28Other people living in the streets soon know.
05:31We've gone further.
05:32Ours is six miles outside Ackersley.
05:35Easier to hide, harder to protect.
05:38I told you she was sharp.
05:42How do the women know where to go?
05:44They ask.
05:46Desperate women ask for help.
05:48Ask who?
05:49Reference library, citizens' advice bureau, social services.
05:53All they get is the number of a helpline to phone.
05:56Where they go depends on where there's a vacancy.
05:59The given directions to a particular town, Ackersley in our case, they come with the kids, by bus or train, phone the helpline again when they arrive, and we pick them up from the station.
06:11What you're saying is that you take such trouble to keep the location secret, that it has to be somebody from the refuge told Gary Hawes where to find his wife.
06:24Well, it certainly wasn't Trudy herself, or she wouldn't have panicked when she saw him.
06:29A member of staff?
06:30There's only two.
06:32A child worker and a manager.
06:35The women run the refuge.
06:40What do you want me to do?
06:43Go undercover.
06:45Find out what's going on.
06:47I can't justify putting anyone of my own in, because it's the old problem.
06:50No crime's been committed.
06:52Anyway, looking the way you do at the moment, you'll be more convincing.
06:55I'm leaving home.
07:03Going to a refuge for battered women.
07:06Why?
07:06You've been knocking me about, haven't you?
07:08Oh.
07:09What?
07:10I've never raised a finger to her.
07:13Though God knows she can be irritating at times.
07:16Hetty!
07:17Hetty!
07:18You don't have to go so sudden.
07:20Do some background work first.
07:22Send Geoffrey off to the reference library.
07:24When they go, it's often sudden.
07:26It'll be night when you get there.
07:28It's often night.
07:29I tell you straight, Hetty, I don't want you going into this alone.
07:32I've no alternative.
07:34I can't take Geoffrey in a push chair, now his beard's beginning to sprout.
07:38Anyway, I've got other work for him.
07:40I don't believe it was just chance her husband finding her in Ackersley that morning.
07:45He lives in Blackburn.
07:47Here's the address.
07:48But he's violent.
07:49You're my associate.
07:50I'm only 18.
07:52I'm getting younger.
07:53Remember what you said to me on our first case.
07:56We're not quitters, Mrs. Waynthrop.
07:58Oh, yes.
07:59Well, this is no time to change your spots.
08:01Use cunning.
08:02Hetty, now listen to me.
08:04I'll have to go if I'm to catch that bus.
08:06Hetty.
08:07Hetty.
08:09How can we reach you?
08:11You can't.
08:12I don't know myself where the refuge is.
08:14They'll pick me up at Ackersley Station.
08:16How will I know to get in touch with you?
08:18It has to be secret.
08:19As soon as I can get out, I'll phone.
08:22Now, my cover starts here.
08:24Try to persuade me not to go.
08:31Don't leave me.
08:32I'll never hit you again.
08:33I promise.
08:34She'll be okay.
08:48She's pretended to be other people before and enjoyed it.
08:51If you won't enjoy this, she's going to have to live amongst women and know what it's really like to be abused and battered day after day.
08:59They'll see right through.
09:00And when they do, she'll leave.
09:30Oh, hello.
09:36Hello.
09:37This is Zeb.
09:38I'm Ruth.
09:40Hetty.
09:41I'm expected.
09:42Yes, you are.
09:43Would you like to see where you'll be sleeping?
09:45Maybe get a bite to eat?
09:47I would.
09:49Zeb, will you pop into the kitchen and see if there's any food left?
09:52Okay, well.
09:53I'm afraid you'll be sharing just for tonight, but we'll work something out in the morning.
09:59We will go to the market to boy by...
10:15Mum, Mum, I know the answer.
10:17Shhh.
10:17I don't see why I have to do homework.
10:20Nobody else is.
10:21Harry is.
10:22Harry's clever.
10:23Now I'm not.
10:24Are they always as noisy as this?
10:37Yes.
10:39You forget, don't you?
10:42Children grow up and you forget what it was like when they were young.
10:47I'm terrible with me nerves.
11:13I wouldn't get a wink of sleep without my little moggies.
11:22Have your nerves always been bad?
11:24Oh, no.
11:26When I was a girl, I never had a nerve in my body.
11:29Even at the beginning with Tom.
11:31Oh, that's my husband.
11:33I thought, well, you get through these things.
11:38It's since Trudy was killed that my nerves have been real bad.
11:43Trudy.
11:45Um, well, we were friends.
11:48And I don't make friends easy.
11:51Even in a place like this.
11:54I was with her.
11:56We'd been to Hackelsley.
11:57To shop.
11:59Groceries and such.
12:01How did it happen?
12:02We went to the post office.
12:09And when we came out, her husband were there.
12:12And she ran into it road and abandoned her.
12:15The post office?
12:16To collect a child allowance.
12:18But I thought it was...
12:21Oh, never mind.
12:22I'm a bit confused.
12:24Oh.
12:24We all are.
12:28First off.
12:30You'll settle down.
12:44Yeah?
12:44Do you want some cocoa?
12:49Can't you sleep?
12:51Not a lot.
12:52No.
12:54Me neither.
12:55Yeah.
12:56Coco will be fine.
12:58Thanks.
12:59All right.
13:02Are you, er...
13:04Are you worried about this fellow in Blackburn tomorrow?
13:08The husband?
13:10No, I'm worried about Mrs. Wainthrop.
13:13Yeah.
13:14Makes two of us.
13:15I could go if you like.
13:20Might make it easier.
13:22Talk to him, man to man.
13:24You can look after the phone.
13:26No.
13:27I'm a professional.
13:29I've got to take the rough with the smooth.
13:32It were computer studies got our Derek in the end.
13:35She came out of the chemists.
13:44Came out of the post office.
13:46And heard her husband call her name.
13:49Her husband was there.
13:55Hey, David!
13:56Come on!
13:57Come on!
13:58Come on!
14:01Come on!
14:02School run.
14:14Peace.
14:14Perfect peace for the rest of the day.
14:17I have to talk to somebody called Angie.
14:20She's the coordinator.
14:22She'll want you to sign a license agreement.
14:24Oh?
14:25Promise you'll obey the rules and pay the rent.
14:27What rules?
14:29What rent?
14:30Very few rules and very little rent.
14:32Come on, I'll introduce you.
14:37Do you think the budget would run to one of them clipboards?
14:41Just a cheap one.
14:43It does look a bit more professional.
14:45When you're lying, it's best to stick as close as you can to the truth.
14:50I shan't lie much.
14:51Just ask questions.
14:54I was thinking of Hetty.
14:55Oh, right.
15:03Do you think I could borrow your reading glasses?
15:06Not too strong, though.
15:07I want to be able to see what I'm doing.
15:12Do you need money?
15:14We can let you have a loan of ten pounds, but it'll have to be paid back.
15:18I've got some.
15:20Took it from the tobacco tin under the mattress before I left.
15:23You're a pensioner.
15:24My husband was made redundant.
15:27We live on that.
15:29He's hurt you badly this time.
15:33Threw me downstairs.
15:37Do you need a doctor?
15:38How long have you been married?
15:44Must be 40 years.
15:46And all that time?
15:48No, no.
15:50When we were first married, he hardly ever touched me.
15:53And then, when we had Derek, that's our son, he lives in Australia now.
15:58Well, Robert was a bit mixed up in his mind about the new responsibility and such.
16:05Not being cock of the walk anymore.
16:06If you like.
16:08If you like.
16:10But even then, he only hit me occasionally.
16:14If he had a drink in him.
16:16It was after the redundancy it got bad.
16:19He'd brood a lot and get these rages.
16:22It was to do with negative equity.
16:26He kept adding up all we'd got and what we could expect and it was never enough.
16:31He said it was my fault because it was me wanting to buy our council house in the first place.
16:36And he said I wasted money.
16:40Rain, damn you, rain.
16:42Well, if you think this looks bad, you should have seen me when I left my purse on the bus.
16:49We've an agreement about how we live here.
16:52There's a little rent to pay, not much.
16:54And we usually share on food.
16:57But if you'd rather, you can buy your own.
16:59Oh, I'll share.
17:01There's not many rules.
17:03No loud music at night.
17:04I would never go into anyone's room without asking.
17:07And no man ever to be allowed in, whatever the excuse.
17:11Where I was before I've known him, stand at the door and cry.
17:15But for everyone's sake, he must never weaken.
17:19I don't think Robert would ever stand at the door and cry.
17:24Just tell me where you are, love.
17:27Tell me you're all right.
17:30It's a project we're doing at school.
17:32Oh, I?
17:32I've been looking it up in the local papers.
17:35Making photo stats and such.
17:37Locking what up?
17:39That accident at Hackersley when your wife was killed.
17:42You little...
17:43Please don't.
17:44I may not bounce.
17:44You think yourself lucky if I don't chuck you over.
17:47I wanted your side of things.
17:50I don't think they'd be very fair.
17:51Come back here, y'all.
18:03What did you say?
18:05I don't think they've been very fair.
18:07You what?
18:08The boys in my class at school.
18:11Some of us think there's been an injustice done.
18:14The men aren't always to blame in these cases.
18:16Well, not entirely.
18:20Sometimes not at all.
18:23You'd better come in.
18:24I often walk up here.
18:35You have a bit of a limp.
18:37Broken bone, badly set.
18:41I fell against a cupboard door.
18:43Is that what you told people?
18:47It's odd.
18:48Nobody thinks of wife-beating as a middle-class thing.
18:51My friends would never have believed it.
18:53Even Mummy used to say
18:55I must have done something to upset him.
18:58Peter's such a lovely man, you see,
19:00outside the home.
19:02Kind and considerate.
19:03It takes pains to be liked.
19:06Street angel, house devil.
19:11Same with you, Robert.
19:13What's your point?
19:17I tried to hide it from Lucy and Josh.
19:20Kitchen cupboard doors.
19:21It must have thought those cupboard
19:22had a life of their own.
19:25Then one day Lucy said,
19:27we know.
19:28And I packed a couple of suitcases
19:30and we left.
19:32But why a refuge?
19:34Why not your mother?
19:35He'd have followed.
19:38I was afraid he'd managed
19:39to get custody of the other kids.
19:41Still am.
19:41I mean,
19:43he is a solicitor.
19:45He knows the law.
19:48OK, I thumped her.
19:49Now, wrong with that,
19:50everyone does it.
19:51My dad took his belt
19:52to our man regular.
19:53You'd have to show him
19:54who's boss.
19:56Yeah.
19:57It says here
19:57that you broke
19:58Trudy's jaw
19:59in two places
20:00because she didn't
20:01have your tea ready.
20:02Watch it.
20:04Right.
20:05That's what she did.
20:06All mouth.
20:07Always giving me the needle.
20:09You don't know what it's like
20:09till you have to live with it.
20:11So faults on both sides,
20:12you'd say?
20:13And the six GCSEs
20:15and couldn't keep the place clean
20:16or get the meals ready on time.
20:18OK.
20:18Don't be cool
20:21But that is what you want
20:24You don't have to write
20:26You're teaching Noreen to read.
20:28Yeah, reading's important.
20:30Yes, it is.
20:32My parents were so shocked
20:33by the schools over here.
20:35They sent me back to Jamaica
20:36to get an education.
20:38At least I can teach Zeb myself.
20:41Getting an education
20:42didn't stop you
20:43being beaten up, though,
20:44did it?
20:45I think it made it worse.
20:50My husband
20:51used my education
20:53against me as an excuse.
20:55He said I had contempt for him
20:57and needed thrashing
20:59to teach me better manners.
21:01But then Noreen's husband
21:02battered her
21:03because she was good for nothing.
21:05She dragged him down.
21:09I was wondering
21:10what you were doing
21:12in Hackersley that morning.
21:14You know what I was doing?
21:15It was in the paper.
21:17I went out every day
21:18looking, different places.
21:20I wondered
21:21why Hackersley
21:23that day?
21:24She had to be somewhere.
21:27Like, where was it
21:28the day before
21:28and the day before that?
21:30You trying to make
21:31something out of it?
21:33No, I'm just trying
21:34to get a few things straight.
21:36Like, I couldn't help noticing
21:38the motorbike
21:39in the hall.
21:39I mean, it's very impressive.
21:41State of the art,
21:41you might say.
21:42But since you're
21:43unemployed at the moment,
21:44I've always been unemployed.
21:47And the phone?
21:47I mean, the rental.
21:49You'd have to have a phone
21:50if you've got a little kid.
21:51Social services
21:52made us put it in.
21:53Yeah, but you've still got it.
21:55And it says in the record
21:56that the little girl's
21:57been taken into care.
21:58Now, why didn't you
21:59object to that?
22:00I need a phone.
22:01I don't need a bloody kid.
22:03Wasn't me forgot to take
22:04the bloody pill.
22:05Why?
22:05You come worming
22:06your way in here
22:07like some bloody detective.
22:09Most unlike,
22:10just an over-enthusiastic
22:11schoolboy.
22:12Out!
22:13Hey, hey, come here.
22:28She never tried to defend herself,
22:30you know.
22:31I could hear everything.
22:32I'd have her on the wall
22:33with me fists sometimes
22:34and shout,
22:36but he took no notice.
22:38It's lies,
22:39what he said.
22:39He never went looking for her.
22:41He'd lie in bed all day
22:42and go out at night.
22:43Somebody told him
22:44where to look.
22:45Who?
22:47There's a bloke
22:48what comes to see him
22:49sometimes.
22:50In a suit
22:51with a posh car.
22:52I mean,
22:53he don't come up.
22:54I suppose he thinks
22:55his car might be vandalised.
22:56Well, he would.
22:58Gary goes down
22:59and they sit in car
23:01and talk.
23:02Up to no good,
23:03I'd say.
23:04And what type of car
23:05is it?
23:06I don't know, love.
23:07I've got no experience.
23:10But I did,
23:11take a note at number
23:12just in case
23:13it might come in useful.
23:16Angie said
23:17to talk to the
23:17housing department.
23:19But I don't know
23:20where I want to live.
23:22No one's rushing you.
23:24It takes time
23:25to sort yourself out.
23:26I'll, uh,
23:27take a couple of sandwiches
23:28up to Noreen.
23:30Baby's been playing her up.
23:32Trudy had a baby too,
23:37didn't she?
23:37A little girl.
23:40What do you know
23:41about Trudy?
23:44Well,
23:44Mara was telling me
23:45last night
23:45about her
23:46and Gary,
23:47was it?
23:48And what happened
23:49in Hackersley.
23:50I'll lay awake
23:58thinking about it.
23:59Thinking what?
24:00Why she died.
24:01She ran in front
24:02of her van.
24:02I wondered how Gary
24:09knew where to find her.
24:11Well,
24:11that's what scares
24:12all of us.
24:12Did anybody leave
24:18the refuge
24:19after the accident?
24:24You're bound to have
24:25these thoughts
24:25if you can't sleep.
24:27Kath left yesterday
24:28morning with her kids.
24:30Went into a B&B.
24:32What kind of a life
24:33is that?
24:34Seems odd
24:35she chose to leave
24:36so sudden.
24:36It's not odd.
24:37Thinking Kath
24:38had anything to do
24:39with it,
24:39you're way off beam.
24:41I don't mean
24:42to offend
24:43her speakers
24:43are fine.
24:44Kath said herself
24:45she'd have to stay
24:45here waiting for a flat.
24:47Kath would have been
24:48the last person
24:48to break security.
24:50If Gary found Trudy,
24:52then her ken
24:52could have found her.
24:54And if he had,
24:55he'd have killed her.
24:57And it wouldn't
24:57have been an accident.
24:58And it wouldn't
24:59have been quick.
25:00Look,
25:00this place works
25:01on trust.
25:03I'm all jumpy
25:04about Trudy's death.
25:05Scared.
25:06But we don't know
25:06what to think.
25:08But if we don't
25:09trust each other,
25:10then we've got
25:10nothing at all.
25:11I'm sorry
25:12I spoke out of turn.
25:17I don't want
25:17a sandwich
25:18if you don't mind.
25:19I'll just go
25:23and sit for a bit.
25:24Come in.
25:42Oh, Robert.
25:44I hope I can call you
25:45Robert.
25:46I always think of you
25:47as Robert.
25:48I always think of you
25:49as Detective Chief Inspector.
25:51You said this morning
25:56did I want to see
25:57a doctor.
25:58Is the one
25:59comes in regular?
26:01Whenever we ask.
26:02She's very understanding.
26:07There's some tablets
26:08I've been taking
26:09to help me sleep.
26:11I forgot to bring them.
26:13I'll make an appointment
26:14for you.
26:15If she thinks
26:16you need them
26:16she'll prescribe.
26:19You don't
26:20keep any here
26:21in case of an emergency?
26:24No.
26:34A posh car,
26:36she said.
26:37She got the number.
26:38Robert,
26:38there are private detectives
26:39all over the north
26:40who have their own ways
26:41of getting access
26:42to the computer at Swansea.
26:43We're not that kind of firm.
26:45And I'm not a bent copper.
26:47I can find out
26:48whose car this is
26:49but I can't pass
26:50the information on.
26:51You got Hetty into this.
26:52Placed her in danger.
26:53Now you want help.
26:54She was offered a job
26:55and she accepted it.
26:57She's in no danger
26:57of anything more serious
26:58than being thrown
26:59out of the refuge.
27:00However,
27:01I do take note
27:03of what you say.
27:06The baby asleep.
27:08Took a bit of time.
27:09She'll wake up now.
27:15She always does
27:16when the kids come back.
27:19Did Myra find you?
27:21She was taking you a sandwich.
27:25You and Myra
27:26are good friends?
27:28Maybe.
27:30Used to be Trudy's friend
27:31but seems like
27:32now she's mine.
27:33That boy's not happy.
27:42Who is?
27:45Are you getting enough sleep?
27:47No.
27:49Can't be helped though.
27:51Doctor gave me some tablets
27:52but I didn't take them.
27:54The baby woke up
27:55in the middle of the night
27:56I'd be dead to the world.
27:58Wouldn't any of the others help?
27:59Ruth would
28:01but I don't like to ask.
28:03She's a kid of her own
28:04needs his sleep.
28:06And Myra's offered.
28:10Does Myra know
28:11you've got tablets?
28:12I expect so.
28:14You coming in?
28:15Would you have a tissue, please?
28:29There you go.
28:33That's all right.
28:34I'll get it.
28:35Oh, you come back.
28:36What is this?
28:37That bird of yours
28:38is flying around my office.
28:39Shut the door, Mr Rivers.
28:40If he gets out
28:41we'll never get it back.
28:43Shut the door.
28:43You feel so helpless.
28:56I don't know why
28:57I bother with homework.
28:59None of which school's interested.
29:01It's a new school.
29:03And there'll be another.
29:05When we get rehoused.
29:07I've never made friends easy.
29:09You couldn't take anybody home
29:11as that is.
29:12You have to keep
29:14pretending there's nothing wrong.
29:17But everyone knows.
29:23I've had enough, you see.
29:27Stopping Mum drinking.
29:29Talking about a suicide.
29:31I miss having a dad.
29:34Not the one that beat Mum up.
29:36Just a dad.
29:37I just want to take a bit of weight.
29:42Did he beat you up too?
29:45That's when we left.
29:49Out!
29:50I want to show Mum at Katie.
29:51In the morning.
29:52She's not still drinking here in the refuge, is she, your mother?
30:02No.
30:04She's got support.
30:06Sinead too.
30:07Kids of her own age.
30:08I've got nobody.
30:11I don't belong here.
30:14Nor do you.
30:15I don't follow you.
30:20You've not been battered.
30:23What about this?
30:24It doesn't fill me.
30:26I have bruises everywhere.
30:27My body aches all over.
30:29It's all put on.
30:30You're strong.
30:31Ruth's strong.
30:33She's been here nine months.
30:35You're a new rival and you're stronger than Ruth.
30:37And you're interested in other people.
30:39How long do you think you've got?
30:45Till they find out.
30:48Not long, by the look of it.
30:50Don't worry.
30:52I shan't betray you.
30:58We need a camera.
31:01Not the one that got sat on in Pisa.
31:04A real surveillance camera.
31:07With a zoom lens.
31:10Like bird watchers have.
31:13And we know one.
31:16And he owes us.
31:17The deaf and dumb lad you say from the kidnap.
31:20He's profoundly deaf and without speech.
31:23And he's not a lad.
31:25But he'd be glad to help.
31:29Are there any other outsiders among the women here?
31:34In your expert opinion.
31:37You're thinking of Myra.
31:39She's not strong.
31:41But she's interested in other people.
31:45Always trying to make friends.
31:47It's not the same.
31:49Myra clings to people.
31:50She can't bear to be on her own.
31:54You'll do well at college.
31:55It's Hetty.
32:13I hope you don't mind me disturbing you.
32:15I'm not used to being on my own.
32:17It's difficult to settle.
32:19Don't worry, love.
32:20Everyone needs a friend.
32:21I thought last night.
32:25Watching you take those tablets.
32:28I used to be on tablets myself.
32:31I've been lying awake and Noreen's baby's been crying.
32:35And I thought, I thought, how shall I manage?
32:40They've taken you off?
32:42Doctor said I mustn't persist or I'd become addicted.
32:45They all say that, then.
32:47I suppose I could ask the doctor that comes here.
32:50She's worse than any.
32:51Say what you like.
32:52She won't prescribe on her.
32:53She's mental.
32:54But she's prescribed for you, hasn't she?
33:02There's a doctor you can go to in Hackersley.
33:06Private.
33:07Did Trudy go to him?
33:11You said last night that she was collecting her child allowance
33:14when Gary called her name.
33:17But I read about the accident in the papers.
33:20You'd been at the chemist's.
33:22Who are you?
33:23Just somebody like yourself.
33:26Who told Trudy's husband she'd be in Hackersley that morning?
33:31Who knew besides you?
33:34She's been asking a lot of questions.
33:37Hmm, I've noticed.
33:38If you was going to hire someone to suss out the refuge,
33:42it'd be a woman.
33:44Those bruises are genuine.
33:46She wouldn't have made them herself.
33:48Yeah, but...
33:49I'll take her shopping with me tomorrow.
33:52If she phones out, we'll know.
33:54It wasn't me.
33:56You'd sell your mother to get tablets, let alone Trudy.
33:59How could I get them off Gary Orr's?
34:00Drugs he could be supplying.
34:02Mockies, Valium, Limrium.
34:04Kids don't take drugs like that now.
34:06Just people like me who doctors won't prescribe for.
34:10You're on the wrong track.
34:12I believe you.
34:20Oh.
34:23Just the same.
34:26Isn't it time you moved on and started a new life?
34:28Oh.
34:29I don't move on.
34:33You can't stay here forever.
34:35Well, I'll go back.
34:37To the man who battered you.
34:38Back to what I know.
34:39You don't begin to understand someone like me, do you?
34:45Start a new life.
34:48I can't live on me own.
34:50I'm frightened.
34:52I've no experience.
34:54So I stay.
34:57As long as I can.
34:58I'm going to go back to Tom.
35:03Oh, he's always glad to see me at first.
35:07And then when I think he goes too far,
35:11or I'm afraid that he might kill me,
35:14I run away.
35:17And then some refuge takes me in.
35:21And is that how it'll be always?
35:25Maybe he'll change as he gets older.
35:28Maybe.
35:43I'm shopping for us all this morning.
35:45Do you want to muck in or cater for yourself?
35:47I'm not bothered.
35:49I'll muck in.
35:52It's too early.
36:02Pen, Pen.
36:03Waynesrop Detective Agency.
36:05Interesting development.
36:06After you left yesterday,
36:08I sent someone to lean on your friend, Gary Hawes,
36:11see if anything fell out.
36:13Well, something has.
36:14A call from a solicitor instructing us to cease harassing his client.
36:19What's a man like Hawes doing with a solicitor?
36:22Let alone one with a middle-class practice
36:24and a brass plate in Walling.
36:26It's the man below.
36:28Ask him about the car.
36:30Was he driving a posh car, by any chance?
36:33A BMW.
36:35It would be improper to give you the number,
36:37but I can't prevent you jumping to conclusions.
36:40And I can give you the name of the firm.
36:43After all, Robert,
36:44you might want to solicit it yourself someday.
36:47Peter, Parmenter and Partners.
36:50I just have to go in here for a moment.
36:53I won't be long.
37:12Peter Parmenter and Partners.
37:15Worley.
37:17Well, there must be some connection.
37:20Phoning home?
37:32Flowers.
37:34Sorry?
37:34I'm famous for my flower arrangements, chapel.
37:37You don't think about that kind of thing when you run away.
37:39I had to arrange for a substitute.
37:41Right.
37:41Better find somewhere safe for the scooter.
37:58Hey, look, can we leave our transport in your hall?
38:06And if you've your clothes, Horton, some washing that needs airy.
38:09And a black plastic bag might come in handy.
38:12Yeah.
38:12Right.
38:16Hello?
38:18Right, there might be a job for us.
38:19Stay by the phone for the next hour.
38:21And tell Wayne and Ray.
38:22How did you find the place?
38:48But the children had to be in a school near Hackersley.
38:52I provided someone with a photograph of my own kids.
38:57And once he spotted them, he followed the Land Rover.
38:59I could have done that.
39:02Horses for courses, Gary.
39:05Deck collecting, putting on the frighteners.
39:07I couldn't ask for better.
39:10Covert surveillance needs someone less...
39:14colourful.
39:20And another hundred when the job's done.
39:23Once they know they've been found, the place is useless.
39:27Then, we move on to the next.
39:30You've really got it in for refuges.
39:31A man's wife and children should be under his control.
39:38That's what holds society together.
39:41It's time the men fought back.
39:44Beginning with Begwin House.
39:51What do you want?
39:52If that's waste paper, don't make litter.
39:54Give it to me.
39:55Piss off.
39:56Piss off.
40:26Betty.
40:28Do you mind coming into the common room a moment?
40:31We're having a meeting.
40:34Solicitor?
40:35You wouldn't expect it.
40:36It means trouble, Mr. Wainthrope.
40:37No doubts about it.
40:38Then you and me had better be there to stop it.
40:41Oh!
40:41I never listen.
40:42But you can't help overhearing, can you?
40:45Before that car come, he won't phone to his mates.
40:47Where's Angie?
40:58Oh, don't you know?
40:59She's out.
41:01Well, you've just been poking about in her office.
41:04We were wondering about the phone call that you made this morning.
41:07Flowers?
41:12Just the arrangement.
41:13I don't supply.
41:14Oh, and Angie's office.
41:16Checking the details in my file.
41:18You're a spy, aren't you?
41:19You're not one of us.
41:21Every woman's one of you, or could be.
41:24I've been here long enough to learn that.
41:25That's words.
41:26That's just words.
41:28You were asking me questions last night, making accusations about the pills.
41:32We know about Myra and the pills.
41:35And you don't mind?
41:36I said we know.
41:37Not that we don't mind.
41:39Why are you here?
41:40You've not been battered.
41:41You don't need refuge.
41:42Why are you here?
41:47Wainthrope Detective Agency.
41:49I told you she'd been sent to suss us out.
41:52The kids said someone was following the Land Rover last week.
41:55But Jean didn't believe them.
41:57This place works on trust, you said.
42:00And I've betrayed it.
42:01I don't feel good about that.
42:04But you've not trusted me either.
42:06No, we haven't.
42:08Who's employing you?
42:10Your management committee.
42:12Without even telling us.
42:14To find out why Gary Hawes knew that Trudy would be in Ackersley that morning.
42:20After Trudy died, trust went out of the window.
42:22They think one of us must be responsible.
42:25It's not me.
42:27I never told nobody.
42:28You said that you believe that.
42:30I do.
42:31It wasn't Myra.
42:34As I think you know, Karen.
42:37Karen?
42:38We use only first names amongst ourselves.
42:44That's why I had to look in Angie's records.
42:49Parmenter.
42:50Peter Parmenter and partners.
42:54My husband's firm.
42:55There's a connection between Peter Parmenter and Gary Hawes.
43:03He knows where you are.
43:06He knows I'm near Ackersley.
43:08No more than that.
43:09I think she'd better explain.
43:11I had to sign a form.
43:13Power of attorney.
43:14I told my mother to send it to Ackersley post office and I'd collect it.
43:18And her husband wormed the information out of her.
43:21Said he'd take the kids unless she cooperated.
43:24And she believed that.
43:25He's a lawyer.
43:27He knows the law.
43:29He says the children's that gives him access.
43:31And there's judges who've said refuges aren't suitable places for children
43:35and ordered them return to the family home.
43:37You should have talked to us.
43:39I was frightened.
43:40If the kids were right, if someone was following that Land Rover,
43:46he'll have found this place by now.
43:48Listen.
43:50Somebody's outside.
44:02Call the police.
44:04Close the shutters.
44:05Know and check that the baby's all right and they'll lock your door.
44:08Stand by to repel borders.
44:09Leave the bag.
44:18We'd better try and influence your friends.
44:21Out!
44:22Out!
44:23Out!
44:24Out!
44:25Out!
44:26Out!
44:27Out!
44:28Out!
44:29Out!
44:30Out!
44:31Go away!
44:33We're not at home to call us!
44:35Come on!
44:36Out!
44:37Out!
44:38Out!
44:38Out!
44:39Out!
44:40Out!
44:41Out!
44:41Out!
44:43Out!
44:47Give it to the bitches!
44:54Get that bench.
44:56Oh, I'm in the office.
45:07I'm coming from town. Come in.
45:13Quick, bring anything.
45:15Anything.
45:15That's everything.
45:17Any stuff.
45:18Anything to town.
45:26Come on.
45:30You're not doing it hard enough.
45:36That's it.
45:38That's it.
45:38Come on.
45:46Dirty nappies.
45:47Come on.
45:56I don't think we need it.
46:22Yes!
46:23Yes!
46:26Where's he going?
46:42Get him, hold it!
46:44Everything okay?
47:00Yes, sir.
47:07He can't come in.
47:08No men allowed.
47:12Parmenter put him up to it.
47:14Well done, Mrs. Wainthrop.
47:16We aim to please.
47:17Yes!
47:19Are you sure you're all right?
47:25Oh, I'm all right.
47:28My Jove, I've learned a lot.
47:30Count me blessings.
47:43How are we going to persuade Hilda Routhwit?
47:45You're not a wife, Peter.
47:50Would the woman of the year care to dance?
47:52Oh, stop it, Dad.
47:53Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on.
47:58There you are.
