Mr Edwards, can you remember
whether your mother-in-law was wearing a seat belt Mr Edwards, can you remember
whether your mother-in-law was wearing a seat belt
when you were in the accident? No, she wasn't.
Will you come out with me tomorrow?
Kandinsky. Take the risk.
Sandra know you're here? Course not.
What have you two been up to?
Have you ever seen this man? Well, it's a terribly large company.
You can't expect me to know every employee.
I said back off!
I'm over in Stepney tomorrow. Have you got it, then?
I just wanna go somewhere new.
I'm just trying to move on.
£12.57p in cash.
Mobile phone.
One set of keys.
One watch.
One gold ring.
I can't believe I've got you back.
How are you? Are you OK?
Yeah, I'm OK.
I got here at 11:00.
I know you said you wouldn't be out till later,
but...I just couldn't wait.
Please. Can't we just go home?
MAN: I can't say that I expected to see you back here again.
I mean, of course, it's a tragedy about Karen's suicide,
but why are the police still investigating?
I'm just tying up the loose ends, Mr Fowler.
So, you were here all day Friday? No, I wasn't, actually.
I left mid afternoon.
And Karen left shortly afterwards
er...just after 3:30?
I'd like to know how you knew that.
This is a printout from your own security systems.
Anytime anyone swipes in or out, the time gets recorded.
And you got that from my own security department?
I don't remember authorising it.
Would you have preferred to have withheld it? No.
No, no, of course not. I want to help the police in any way I can.
So, 3:33 - does seem very early to be leaving work.
You got any idea why? No. No, I'm afraid I don't.
She was normally very conscientious.
Suzy.
Sorry, I really don't see what this has to do anything.
I'm just trying to understand why she might have left early
if it wasn't something she normally did.
I'm afraid I have no idea.
Maybe she wasn't quite as trustworthy as I'd hoped.
No, maybe she wasn't.
See you've got a new PA already.
Yes.
When did she start? That would be last Tuesday.
That was quick.
That's before Karen's body was even found.
OK, Mr Rampton, we'll just take this from the top.
You are the registered owner of the vehicle
registration number EX51 SXO?
Yes, I bought it for the business.
And you were aware that Daniel was making the trip to Holland?
Yeah. He was picking up some stock.
It was always Jeffrey's business.
Jeffrey and I - we'd built it up from scratch.
Then Daniel came out of the army. That was about two years ago.
And he was having trouble finding work,
so Jeffrey gave him a job.
To be honest, I was against it from the start.
Why was that, Mrs Rampton?
Do I really have to answer your questions?
This has got nothing to do with me. It's all Daniel.
OK, you told us that you hadn't spoken to Daniel
since the collision.
I haven't.
Then maybe you can explain this.
Cos he called you shortly after 6:00.
We triangulated the call...
..and it was from the collision site.
OK, he rang me. But I didn't speak to him.
Why are you lying?
I'm not lying.
It's cos you knew, didn't you...
..that there was a compartment cut into the base of the van?
No. I didn't know.
And there was a man concealed there.
And that man's now dead.
Jeffrey wouldn't do that.
He's got a family.
He's not like that.
But Daniel is?
That man's capable of anything. I don't know.
A man died, Mrs Rampton.
A man died a very slow and very painful death.
For all we know, a family man himself.
If you know anything about this, now would be the time to tell us,
before you and your husband end up in prison.
He shouldn't have been there. Who shouldn't have been there?
The man you say was in the back of my husband's van. If he was illegal,
then he should never have been there.
We can't be blamed for an illegal stowaway.
It's not my fault he's dead. It's not my husband's either.
And for all you know, even Daniel could have driven off
not knowing he was there.
ANN: You're letting them go?
Don't see how we can keep them. We've got nothing concrete.
Anyway, if we have better luck,
I'm hoping they'll lead us to the brother. (DOOR OPENING)
Heard the news?
Poor bugger in the back of the van.
Say he was alive for four days. Amazed nobody heard him.
They think he was slipping in and out of consciousness
most the time. Should have a word with Guy Pearson.
He's completely gutted. Yeah, I'll do that.
John, can I have a word?
Sure.
I didn't know whether to tell you this or not,
but, well, Harry Canwell...
What about him?
He got out this morning.
What?
Ten months. Nine.
Nine months, Steve. Nine months, one day.
So, they let him out?
Yeah. Well, I figured you'd find out sooner or later.
Yeah. Thanks.
Are you OK? Aye, I'm fine.
Sandra and Jeffrey Rampton.
Yeah, delightful couple (!)
I'd love to be a fly on the wall in their house tonight.
Do you wanna go to dinner?
Another night maybe. Why, do you have plans?
Not particularly, no.
I thought... What?
What did you think?
What, that you'd apologised
and then everything would go back to how it was?
You're unbelievable. You pretty much did think that, didn't you?
It's just dinner. It's never JUST dinner.
Not with you and me.
I - I just don't want it to go back to the way it was.
Here you are. Oh, not for me, thanks.
Harry?
Have you decided what you wanna do?
It's a bit soon for all of that, isn't it?
Well...
I don't know. I guess I'll get my old job back.
Do you think they'll give it to you?
Well, they said they'd hold it open for me.
But that was before the sentencing.
OK, well, we'll see.
I'm sure everything will work out in the end.
I know it will.
Listen, I've got to go to Romford tomorrow.
Sidney Norris' place.
Do you wanna come?
Well, we're supposed to be in this together, right?
(SIGHS) I'd like to think so, yeah.
I miss you.
Yeah, I know.
I meant it, John.
Jodie's been through enough.
I just feel that if I tell her about you and me...
I just don't want to lose her.
She's your daughter. She loves you.
You're not gonna lose her.
Hello, hello, hello.
Hi there.
So are the police offering a taxi service these days?
No. Ann gave me a lift.
I didn't know you were working with her.
I'm working with Chelmsford.
Erm...
she just happened to be on call on the night.
Right.
That's good, isn't it?
Been a long day.
Do you want a drink?
You look completely knackered.
I am.
Getting old.
You should be the one in the wheelchair.
Shut your face.
Get me a drink.
Turn this car round.
Turn it round! For God's sake, Joyce!
Christine?
What are you doing in here, love?
Why did you tell the police that mum's seat belt was undone?
Because it was.
It was done up when she left here. I know it was.
I clipped her in myself. I can remember doing it.
But you know what she was like. She was always taking it off.
I tried to get her to put it back on, but -
You shouldn't have been on the A12.
I know.
All right.
Look, I wasn't taking her to Sandhills.
I wanted to show your mother something.
A residential home - somewhere for her to live.
But she was living with us. She was ruling us.
She was ruling you. Everything was just always about her.
And the way she treated you every day, grinding you down.
Someone had to look after her. But it didn't need to be you.
There was no-one else. And didn't she let you know it?
Don't you remember?
We had plans.
I was talking about retiring. We were gonna go on a cruise.
This was going to be our time -
you and me.
But we never talked about a home.
Because you would never have agreed.
I know how you felt about her.
But she was destroying us.
She was destroying us because she was destroying you.
But it wasn't your decision to make.
If you hadn't gone on the A12, none of this would have happened
and my mother would still be alive.
I couldn't believe it when I heard. I just couldn't belive it.
And now I've got to think about the funeral...
and I don't even know who to invite.
You never met his family? I don't even know if he had one.
He always kept himself to himself.
How long had he been here? A year.
It was our first anniversary...
when he had the accident.
Did he always pay his rent with a cheque?
Cash. He was always very prompt.
Right. So you really knew nothing about him?
I knew he was a piano teacher.
At a school? No. He gave private lessons.
Do you know where he was going at the time of the accident?
He was on his way here from Stepney.
On the A12.
This is Sidney's part of the house.
His bedroom through there.
I...kept everything exactly as it was.
I don't know what I'm going to do.
I don't think I want anyone else to live here.
That's his diary.
It's got all his appointments in it.
Is this new? He left his computer.
He spent hours on it every night.
I think we're gonna have to take this in, too.
What do you think we'll find on his computer?
I don't know. He's a middle-aged unmarried man
and he teaches the piano to schoolchildren.
You've got a sick mind.
Jane Tarrant.
Yes, of course.
You like it? Well...
Leon Shkuro. He studied with Kandinsky in Murnau in 1908.
You can see the similarities.
Oh, definitely.
A dynamic and expressive arrangement of colours and lines
pioneering a completely new visual language.
You studied Russian Expressionism?
Nah. I read it on the poster outside.
Haven't got a clue what it means, but he does use some pretty colours.
Thanks.
Stressful day.
Alan Feraday.
Jane Tarrant. Nice to meet you.
Million and a half, you could have this hanging on your wall.
Well, I would, but it wouldn't match my wallpaper.
Richard, good to see you! Hello. How are you?
May I introduce Jane Tarrant?
We met. Oh.
I'll leave you two together.
Yes? Hi, I'm a friend of Sid's.
Is he in?
No. I've been calling him.
He hasn't returned my calls.
No...I'm sorry. He was involved in an accident on the A12.
Is he OK? Look, I lent him some computer stuff.
I'd like to get it back. I don't know who you are.
I could come in. It would only take a second to find it.
The police are taking it. Why?
I'm sorry. Sidney's dead.
Thank you.
Got one?
You know, the more you drink, the more crazy these paintings get.
Do you know they sell for nearly a million quid, some of 'em?
I heard.
What do you think of this one?
Honestly?
I like it.
I really like it, actually. I don't know what it means or anything,
but it's full of all that crazy colour and energy.
Sort of makes you want to reach out and touch it.
Well, why don't you? No. (LAUGHS) I'll get chucked out.
I think you're OK with this one.
Why, is it a fake? I hope not. It's mine.
You own it? And a couple of the Kandinskys.
I lent them to the exhibition.
Well, how much...?
Well, they were an investment.
Anyway, I think it was 'buy two get one free' (!)
Oh, my God.
You own it.
Go on.
And you didn't even set the alarm off. What?
Don't!
I wanna take you out. Come on. We are out.
No, I mean out out.
I'll get my car to pick us up.
I'm gonna buy you lunch. Best restaurant in town.
No.
I've got a better idea.
It's gonna take a bit of getting used to, you know - being home.
You know, I wrote to him - John Tolin - while I was in prison.
I kept writing to him.
Maybe he's trying to leave it behind him.
I need to see him.
Maybe he doesn't wanna see you.
He has to, Linda.
He has to see me.
How much did you borrow?
How much?
Ten grand.
Who did you get to lend you that kind of money?
Who do you think?
Put it this way, it weren't Barclays.
What if you can't pay it back?
This is a way out.
This is madness.
I'm only doing it for you and San'. All of us.
We were doing just fine without you.
Come on, Jeff.
That's not like you. Well, it's true.
Are you saying you shouldn't have given me a job?
No.
Look, this COULD be a lot of money.
Think about that.
If Sandra ever finds out about this - Here they are.
Let me do the talking.
How are you doing? Good to see you.
SANDRA: What have you dragged us into?
Did you consider me in any of this? Our son? That's why I did it.
I was gonna lose the business - our business!
No, it's not just about the business, Jeffrey.
It's everything - everything we've been working towards -
and you put that in jeopardy for Danny. He's my brother.
He needed my help. Yeah, and I'm your wife.
And that man is like a bloody leach on this family.
What do you think the police are gonna do when they find him?
That's why we have to help him get out of the country.
How are you gonna do that? Smuggle him back out in your van?
We know someone, a bloke called Derek. He arranges stuff.
He should be able to get him a fake passport.
Right, where's Danny now? He's in a B&B in Barking.
Oh, very dignified (!)
Right, we're gonna need to speak to him, but don't call him.
Not from the house and definitely not from your mobile.
Your brother may have dragged us into this mess,
but there is no way I'm letting him pull us in any further.
From now on, you do exactly as I say. Do you understand?
Exactly.
I can't remember the last time I did this,
had someone to do it with.
Dave not into picnics?
No. Dave doesn't see the point in eating outside.
No, you know, he's into football and pubs.
He's a typical bloke's bloke.
Yeah? And what does that make me?
My mum used to bring me up here when I was a little kid,
and we'd sit and watch the city together.
She always used to say it made her feel free.
I never really knew what she meant at the time.
Listen. What do you hear?
Traffic.
Sirens.
The sound of a city.
You're mad. You think?
I bet every city has its own sound.
I wanna sit on a hill by Rome or Paris and listen to its beat.
You ever done that?
No. I can't say I have.
You know, you're beautiful.
You are.
Come away with me.
I'll take you to a foreign city.
And you can show it to me like it's the first time.
Yeah, but you've seen them all already.
Yeah, but not with you. Not the way you see them.
I'm serious. Come away with me.
And you think I'm crazy?
She's getting her hair done. You stick with him.
It's round here. Thanks.
OK, see ya.
Hi, Cindie. Are you all right? Dave. What are you doing here?
I just need to see Jane. Is she around?
She's not here.
Why not? Where is she?
Er...she pulled a sickie.
Erm...something to do with the wedding.
It's a surprise. But you're not supposed to know.
Bugger.
I was hoping to cadge a bit of money off her.
I was supposed to be meeting the boys but I'm a bit short.
Don't look at me. I'm as skint as the next person. Oh, no, no.
I didn't mean -
Well, I'd best get back to work.
Oh, and don't forget, when you see Jane, you weren't here.
Don't wanna spoil the surprise. Yeah. Right.
Oh, Happy Birthday, by the way. What?
OK, wait here.
All right, I'll give you an extra tenner if you wait.
We're closed.
Are you Derek?
We haven't met, but you've met my husband and his brother -
Jeffrey and Daniel Rampton.
Never heard of them. Please don't lie to me.
They certainly know you.
There's something you need to know. They ran into trouble on the A12.
Nowt to do with me. Police might not agree.
I don't wanna be in this disgusting place any more than you want me here
but I've got a problem, and so do you.
The police are looking for Danny.
If they find him, it's bad news for me but even worse for you,
so why don't you stop pissing around and start taking me seriously?
All right. I'm listening.
115 Sangora Road.
How did you find him? He was involved in an incident.
Are you Tolin?
Yeah. Mr...? Shah. Tariq Shah.
This is my shop. I also have the flat upstairs. Three rooms.
And you rented a room to James Taylor? Yes. Yes, I did.
He turned up about three months ago.
He seemed all right.
Well dressed, well spoken.
And then I caught him trying to sneak off without paying his rent.
Look - Look what he did to me.
You said his name was James Taylor.
He IS James Taylor and he IS a journalist.
He works for The Guardian. That's just around the corner from here.
Have you called them? No. I called the police.
Look, how can you be so sure about who he is and where he works?
He told me he's a journalist. Freelance. That's what he said.
You know, when he left, my wife went round his room and she found this...
at the back of the wardrobe.
Only went and left it behind, didn't he?
I knew I'd seen the name before.
Where? Here.
It's a newspaper article I took from Karen Donnelly's house.
There were loads of them, all about some war going on in East Africa
and all written by the same guy. James Taylor.
He's a journalist. The Betsey Trotwood
is round the corner from The Guardian.
That's him over there.
Mr Taylor?
You're James Taylor?
Yeah.
Who are you?
Impersonating me? That's what it looks like.
Well, he'd never have got into the building with this.
Maybe that wasn't the idea. Well, then, what did he want?
We were hoping maybe you could tell us.
The woman we've been investigating - Karen Donnelly -
had a lot of articles written by you at her house.
Cut out of the paper. About East Africa.
Well, yeah, it's my speciality.
Right now, there's a struggle going on.
It's a civil war in anything but name.
But it's not really a power struggle. It's about oil.
The reserves are on land that's heavily populated by villages,
so the government's been clearing these areas
by whatever means possible - intimidation, murder.
Now the rebel group's fighting back.
Where does our government stand on all this?
Publicly, they speak against it, of course. But behind closed doors -
I've been trying to prove that,
tacitly, they're supporting these land clearances.
It's not easy, as you can imagine.
Have you ever heard of a company called HDC Chemicals?
Karen Donnelly - she was that woman
that killed herself and she worked for HDC? Yeah.
I thought you said you were investigating a car accident.
Maybe we should come back another time.
He'll be home soon. (SIGHS) We can wait.
Harry.
He may not want to see you.
He'll see me.
How can you be so sure?
You don't know what this means to me.
Closure.
No.
A beginning.
Hello.
You all right, love?
Yeah, I'm fine.
I wanted to say sorry.
What for? For what I said last night.
It wasn't fair.
Cos you were quite right. I never gave you the choice
about whether my mum came to stay with us or not.
I suppose I was afraid you'd say no,
so I just offered it as a kind of a fait accompli.
And do you know what?
You never once complained. You just got on with it.
You were always there for me,
and I don't think I ever told you how much that meant to me.
Well, I didn't mind. No, I know.
But now...
Now that you need my support, all I could do was blame you.
It was a senseless accident,
and I can't imagine what you must be going through.
I know my mum came between us when she was alive.
I don't want her to come between us now she's dead.
Mr Tolin.
What are you doing here?!
I need to talk to you. You what?
They let me out yesterday.
I wrote to you twice, three times.
Please, Mr Tolin, I know how you must feel,
but I can't live with this.
You can't live with this?
I was drunk. I made a mistake.
You fuck off.
No.
You killed my wife, you could have killed my daughter.
She's never gonna walk again thanks to you!
But if I could go - If I could go back, I would do anything.
If you could go back you'd what? You wouldn't drink?
You wouldn't get in your car?
Wouldn't swerve around a corner...? I know what I did. I swear to you.
But you have to understand that I am not a bad man.
Right - No.
It was an office party. I wasn't even gonna stay.
You get away from me. Go on, get away from my house.
Please. I can't. Please!
What?
What do you want from me?
Want me to forgive you? Is that it?
Yes.
You shouldn't be here. You shouldn't have come here.
Now just go, get back into your car and go away.
Mr Tolin, while I was inside, I read the Bible.
I don't give a shit about the Bible!
And I don't give a shit about you!
You took everything I had! My wife and my child!
I'd do anything. I don't forgive you.
I hate you!
I loathe you!
I forgive you. What?
For your hatred. Bastard!
Please! Stop it!
Dad! Dad!
Argh! Dad!
Sandra. What are you doing here?
Surprised? I bet you are. Where's Jeff?
Being watched by the police, thanks to you. We both are.
I haven't been followed. Do you think I want them to catch you?
This is it, then.
All of it. I don't ever wanna see you again.
You won't. I mean it.
I am sick and tired of Jeffrey having to bail you out.
We were doing well for ourselves before you came along.
We were a family. We had our own life.
And if you think I'm letting you or anyone else destroy that,
then you're mistaken.
That's not enough. I told Jeff I need to buy a passport.
I've already arranged it. I've been to see Derek.
You've got to get yourself to his yard tonight.
There's a phone box on the road outside his yard.
He'll meet you there at 10:00 with a ticket and a passport.
That's just to get you set up.
But that's the last of it, Danny.
I don't care where you end up. Just as long as when you get there,
you don't ever come back.
I'm sorry.
You don't have to say that.
I think I might have killed him. No, you wouldn't.
He shouldn't have come here. Not without calling you.
You think that would have made a difference?
You wouldn't have seen him?
Well, why would I want to? It might help.
Who, him?
Or me? Dad.
Nine months, the bastard. He got nine months.
And he wants me to forgive him?
Well, maybe you should. Oh, for God's sake!
And yourself!
It happened a year ago.
You feel responsible
because mum's dead
and I'm like this and you weren't there.
But that's wrong.
No. You don't know.
I do.
Mum would have never wanted you to blame yourself.
You think...?
Jodie...
..I wasn't at work.
I wasn't at work the night of your accident.
You don't need to say it. No, I do. I do. I need to say it.
I already know.
I know you were with Ann.
But it's got all jumbled up.
I mean, you can't see it like that.
What was happening between you and mum was between you and mum.
The accident was something else.
And it wasn't your fault.
I should have been there.
No.
I should have been.
I'm glad you weren't.
Because who would I have to look after me now?
It's OK.
I'll call you. I will.
Bye.
Didn't expect to see you again quite so soon.
Yeah, you and me both.
Have you got the passport? Yeah, it's in the car.
Got yourself in a bit of trouble, didn't you? You could say that.
I'm sorry to hear that, mate. I really am.
Get in the car, then.
Hi. Hi.
'Jeff, it's me. It's Dan.
I know I shouldn't be calling you, but I just wanted to say thanks
for everything.
I really appreciate it, you know. I really appreciate it. I do.
When I came out of the army, you were there for me.
And now this.
I'm lucky to have family like you.
And look, say thanks to Sandra for me.
I know we've had our ups and downs, me and Sandra,
but yeah, say thanks.
And, you know, she's solid as a rock.
Better get going, mate.
When I'm settled, you come and visit.
It'll be like old times. We'll have a bit of a laugh.
I'll call you. I will. I'll call you.
See ya, mate.'
Thanks. That was Danny.
He said to thank you for helping him.
I should thank you, too.
You were great. Let's not talk about that now.
The important thing is he's gone.
He said that we should go and see him when he settles down.
No. I think we should just let him get on with his own life...
..and us with ours.
Yeah.
You're probably right.
Karen Donnelly didn't kill herself. He wants me to go away with him.
Dave? No. You know who.
What is wrong with you, Richard?
You went out with someone else, didn't you? What did you do, Brian?
Jodie knows about us.
We're gonna have to find you a new piano teacher.
What happened to Mr Norris?
I'm glad you're here. I want to confess.
