1
00:00:00,923 --> 00:00:02,963
WATER DRIPS
2
00:00:36,763 --> 00:00:41,003
The victim is an 85-year-old male,
a Mr Tomczyk.
3
00:00:41,003 --> 00:00:42,643
He asked me for money.
4
00:00:42,643 --> 00:00:44,803
When I opened wallet,
he saw bank card.
5
00:00:44,803 --> 00:00:48,123
And he took that as well?
He asked me for PIN.
6
00:00:48,123 --> 00:00:50,603
You're a very brave man.
7
00:00:53,003 --> 00:00:55,963
He didn't leave after you gave him
the PIN, did he?
8
00:00:55,963 --> 00:00:58,003
I don't want to talk about it.
9
00:01:00,643 --> 00:01:03,083
Tell them I want them all
watching that cash machine,
10
00:01:03,083 --> 00:01:05,163
and they don't leave until I say so.
11
00:01:10,203 --> 00:01:12,803
HONK HONKS
Too late, boss. We missed him.
12
00:01:12,803 --> 00:01:14,683
What?!
We must've missed him by seconds.
13
00:01:14,683 --> 00:01:16,363
CRASH
14
00:01:16,363 --> 00:01:18,603
We have to try something new.
We have to.
15
00:01:21,763 --> 00:01:23,683
We just need a bigger boat.
16
00:01:23,683 --> 00:01:25,723
Ocean liner.
Aircraft carrier.
17
00:01:25,723 --> 00:01:28,563
I've never made a request
to the Force Tasking Group
18
00:01:28,563 --> 00:01:31,803
but I understand that
many of you here are regular bidders
19
00:01:31,803 --> 00:01:34,123
so we're here
to listen and to learn.
20
00:01:34,123 --> 00:01:36,523
I'd suggest having
surveillance teams on stand-by
21
00:01:36,523 --> 00:01:39,323
just outside the plot.
Yeah, that's crucial.
22
00:01:39,323 --> 00:01:41,603
You don't want word getting out
there's surveillance
23
00:01:41,603 --> 00:01:43,443
going on in Shirley.
24
00:01:46,443 --> 00:01:48,203
If we shrink the plot,
25
00:01:48,203 --> 00:01:50,963
the odds of him offending
obviously shrink, too.
26
00:01:50,963 --> 00:01:52,643
By how much?
27
00:01:52,643 --> 00:01:53,883
Well, based on past offences,
28
00:01:53,883 --> 00:01:56,523
they drop from one-in-three
to one-in-six.
29
00:01:56,523 --> 00:01:58,283
One-in-six.
30
00:02:00,563 --> 00:02:04,083
You know what, they're still
good odds. I'll take that.
31
00:02:04,083 --> 00:02:05,963
Now, for the first time,
32
00:02:05,963 --> 00:02:08,963
I really think we're in with
a chance of a result,
33
00:02:08,963 --> 00:02:11,323
of stopping this man for good.
34
00:02:16,483 --> 00:02:18,883
CLOCK TICKS
35
00:02:20,923 --> 00:02:23,283
PRINTER BEEPS
36
00:02:25,163 --> 00:02:30,283
Ah, OK. I was very heartened
by the support of the squad bosses.
37
00:02:30,283 --> 00:02:35,283
Thanks, Richard. But I won't lie,
we've unleashed a beast here.
38
00:02:35,283 --> 00:02:37,363
We're going to the FTG with
a begging bowl
39
00:02:37,363 --> 00:02:40,443
of optimistic proportions.
Optimistic?
40
00:02:40,443 --> 00:02:42,483
As in, "Optimistic
our boys'll beat Brazil."
41
00:02:42,483 --> 00:02:45,283
That's not optimism,
that's more like a wilful delusion.
42
00:02:45,283 --> 00:02:47,403
Like when you sat
the inspectors' exam, Nev.
43
00:02:47,403 --> 00:02:49,843
What if they say no?
Are we're screwed?
44
00:02:49,843 --> 00:02:52,323
Basically. The Force Tasking Group
is the only funding body
45
00:02:52,323 --> 00:02:54,603
that can write the sort of cheque
we're after. Yeah.
46
00:02:54,603 --> 00:02:56,763
So we need to have answers
to every question.
47
00:02:56,763 --> 00:02:59,123
Every last penny and officer
we're requesting
48
00:02:59,123 --> 00:03:01,403
needs to be justified.
We're not just selling the plan,
49
00:03:01,403 --> 00:03:03,683
we're selling the execution
of the plan. Fat chance.
50
00:03:03,683 --> 00:03:06,003
Kenny, have you got something
you'd like to add? No, Sir.
51
00:03:06,003 --> 00:03:07,563
Private joke.
Fair enough.
52
00:03:07,563 --> 00:03:11,163
But I will say, though,
if anyone isn't 100% behind this,
53
00:03:11,163 --> 00:03:14,283
there's still the chance to win
the keys to a Vauxhall Astra.
54
00:03:14,283 --> 00:03:18,123
A nice silver one with stripes
and lights on it. OK?
55
00:03:18,123 --> 00:03:20,763
Now, I'm told that the presentation
of a bid
56
00:03:20,763 --> 00:03:22,763
is every bit as important
as the contents,
57
00:03:22,763 --> 00:03:26,643
so any PowerPoint demons,
please make themselves known.
58
00:03:26,643 --> 00:03:29,083
Wouldn't say I'm a demon,
but I'm all right. He's brilliant.
59
00:03:29,083 --> 00:03:31,443
He did the slideshow at my 50th.
Wasn't that for your 60th?
60
00:03:31,443 --> 00:03:34,083
OK. All proofed materials to Adam,
please.
61
00:03:34,083 --> 00:03:36,643
Boss, it's a bad one -
62
00:03:36,643 --> 00:03:38,443
victim's been admitted
to West Croydon
63
00:03:38,443 --> 00:03:41,363
and Patricia's on her way.
That's all I've got. Oh, God.
64
00:03:41,363 --> 00:03:44,363
Nathan, can you start getting
the presentation together?
65
00:03:44,363 --> 00:03:46,083
Neville, you come with me.
66
00:03:46,083 --> 00:03:48,203
We're on our way.
67
00:03:49,803 --> 00:03:51,763
SIREN WAILS
68
00:03:51,763 --> 00:03:54,283
I'm calling from
the Metropolitan Police in London.
69
00:03:54,283 --> 00:03:57,723
That's right, the UK.
I'm trying to reach Diane Cole.
70
00:03:57,723 --> 00:04:00,043
I'll hold, thank you.
71
00:04:01,763 --> 00:04:03,443
Nancy Cole, she's a widow.
72
00:04:03,443 --> 00:04:05,163
One daughter
who lives in New Zealand,
73
00:04:05,163 --> 00:04:07,243
I'm trying to track her down.
74
00:04:07,243 --> 00:04:08,643
Has she been assaulted?
75
00:04:08,643 --> 00:04:11,003
TBC - she's been dozing
since I got here.
76
00:04:11,003 --> 00:04:13,363
Consultant wants to see her
before tests are carried out.
77
00:04:13,363 --> 00:04:14,923
Right. Thank you.
78
00:04:18,803 --> 00:04:23,283
Excuse me, hi. DS Neville Hylton,
DCI Colin Sutton. She's in there.
79
00:04:23,283 --> 00:04:25,843
Yeah, just a couple of questions.
Yes, of course.
80
00:04:36,923 --> 00:04:41,203
Nancy, my name's Colin Sutton.
81
00:04:42,243 --> 00:04:44,283
How are you feeling?
82
00:04:46,443 --> 00:04:50,523
You're in West Croydon Hospital
and you're in very good hands.
83
00:04:53,123 --> 00:04:55,283
What, love?
84
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:59,283
He interfered with me, you know.
85
00:05:04,043 --> 00:05:08,003
I'm very sorry to hear that,
Nancy, I truly am.
86
00:05:09,683 --> 00:05:12,003
It took a lot of courage
to tell me that.
87
00:05:13,443 --> 00:05:17,683
I think you're very brave
and we're gonna look after you
88
00:05:17,683 --> 00:05:22,003
and help you in every way
we can, all right?
89
00:05:22,003 --> 00:05:23,283
Thank you.
90
00:05:24,403 --> 00:05:28,083
Colin, it's her daughter.
91
00:05:28,083 --> 00:05:30,443
She wants to speak
to whoever's in charge.
92
00:05:30,443 --> 00:05:32,763
What's her name? Diane.
OK, thank you.
93
00:05:32,763 --> 00:05:35,763
Hello, Diane,
my name's Colin Sutton.
94
00:05:35,763 --> 00:05:38,483
'Is it him? Did he come back?'
95
00:05:38,483 --> 00:05:39,963
I'm sorry?
96
00:05:39,963 --> 00:05:41,763
The Night Stalker.
97
00:05:42,803 --> 00:05:45,643
He attacked a woman
in Mum's street ten years ago.
98
00:05:45,643 --> 00:05:47,243
Didn't you know that?
99
00:05:47,243 --> 00:05:49,443
Er... no. I've just come
straight to the hospital,
100
00:05:49,443 --> 00:05:51,443
I'm still catching up
on the details.
101
00:05:51,443 --> 00:05:53,803
'Details?'
102
00:05:53,803 --> 00:05:56,203
You don't know
if it's him or not?
103
00:05:56,203 --> 00:05:58,883
There's a strong possibility
that it is, yes.
104
00:05:58,883 --> 00:06:01,923
'Oh, God. She read about it
in the local paper.
105
00:06:01,923 --> 00:06:05,683
SECOND PHONE RINGS
'Every attack, every article.
106
00:06:05,683 --> 00:06:07,523
'She always said she'd be next.
107
00:06:09,003 --> 00:06:11,723
'This is exactly what she dreaded.'
Hi, DCI Sutton's phone.
108
00:06:11,723 --> 00:06:13,803
And I'm so far away.
109
00:06:13,803 --> 00:06:15,403
I'm sorry.
110
00:06:15,403 --> 00:06:17,123
'How is he still out there?'
111
00:06:17,123 --> 00:06:19,523
I wish I could answer that,
but I'm afraid I can't.
112
00:06:21,563 --> 00:06:25,323
Was she erm...
HER VOICE FALTERS
113
00:06:26,963 --> 00:06:29,443
'Was she raped?'
I don't know, Diane.
114
00:06:29,443 --> 00:06:32,763
As soon as I have more information,
I'll call you myself, I promise.
115
00:06:34,283 --> 00:06:36,683
'Now, what about coming over
to see your mum?'
116
00:06:36,683 --> 00:06:38,363
I want to.
117
00:06:38,363 --> 00:06:40,283
But erm... I'm a single mum,
118
00:06:40,283 --> 00:06:41,643
'It's not easy.'
119
00:06:41,643 --> 00:06:45,363
Well if we can help with
the arrangements, just let us know.
120
00:06:45,363 --> 00:06:48,763
Thank you. Have you got a pen?
I'll give you our office number.
121
00:06:48,763 --> 00:06:50,603
OK, thanks.
122
00:06:51,803 --> 00:06:54,483
'It's 02079...'
Sorry, hang on.
123
00:06:55,443 --> 00:06:56,483
OK.
124
00:06:56,483 --> 00:07:00,523
02079460739.
125
00:07:01,683 --> 00:07:03,603
0739, OK.
126
00:07:05,723 --> 00:07:07,483
Everything all right, Neville?
127
00:07:07,483 --> 00:07:10,243
Not exactly.
That was Inspector Adler,
128
00:07:10,243 --> 00:07:12,443
one of the Staff Officers
at the Yard. Uh-huh?
129
00:07:12,443 --> 00:07:14,443
He says he's managed to
squeeze your application
130
00:07:14,443 --> 00:07:16,763
into the Force Tasking meeting
today. Today?!
131
00:07:16,763 --> 00:07:19,963
You've got the 12:00pm slot.
That's in 90 minutes!
132
00:07:19,963 --> 00:07:21,563
I said that. I said it's impossible.
133
00:07:21,563 --> 00:07:23,243
I'm not ready.
I'm nothing like ready.
134
00:07:23,243 --> 00:07:25,603
I said all of that. I asked
if you could come in next week.
135
00:07:25,603 --> 00:07:27,043
He goes - get this - he goes,
136
00:07:27,043 --> 00:07:29,283
"We're fully booked
till the first week of November."
137
00:07:30,323 --> 00:07:33,203
That's six weeks away! Then he says,
"If it's not a priority for you,
138
00:07:33,203 --> 00:07:35,083
"I could tell the DACs
you're not bothered."
139
00:07:35,083 --> 00:07:36,763
It's not about not being bothered,
140
00:07:36,763 --> 00:07:39,043
we're in the middle
of an investigation! Thank you.
141
00:07:39,043 --> 00:07:43,283
To which he says, "We're all busy
these days, nature of the beast."
142
00:07:43,283 --> 00:07:45,043
So, it's now or November?
Yeah.
143
00:07:45,043 --> 00:07:47,363
We'd better get going then,
hadn't we. I reckon.
144
00:07:54,003 --> 00:07:56,763
What's another way of saying
"forensically aware"?
145
00:07:57,963 --> 00:07:59,643
Evidentially cognisant?
146
00:07:59,643 --> 00:08:01,963
That's a bit of a mouthful.
147
00:08:03,443 --> 00:08:05,003
Evidentially savvy?
148
00:08:06,123 --> 00:08:08,123
Yeah. Yeah, that's good.
149
00:08:16,083 --> 00:08:18,723
Good luck, boss.
Thanks. Bye.
150
00:08:21,283 --> 00:08:24,243
Hello, Alex. Morning, Sir.
You all right?
151
00:08:26,683 --> 00:08:28,523
Shit!
152
00:08:29,723 --> 00:08:31,683
Neville!
153
00:08:33,123 --> 00:08:35,923
Lend us your warrant card,
I left mine on my desk.
154
00:08:35,923 --> 00:08:38,763
What? Just give it to me.
I look nothing like you!
155
00:08:38,763 --> 00:08:40,083
You're too modest.
156
00:08:40,083 --> 00:08:42,163
Couldn't you just explain
to security?
157
00:08:42,163 --> 00:08:44,683
I could, but I'd probably
miss next week's meeting as well.
158
00:08:48,483 --> 00:08:50,243
Chief Inspector Sutton?
Yep.
159
00:08:50,243 --> 00:08:52,723
Len Adler, I spoke to
one of your colleagues. Oh, yeah.
160
00:08:52,723 --> 00:08:56,003
Right, you'll be presenting
to the DACs in five minutes.
161
00:08:59,123 --> 00:09:02,243
But, rather embarrassingly,
two council leaders
162
00:09:02,243 --> 00:09:05,283
have lost their laptops
in the last eight weeks.
163
00:09:05,283 --> 00:09:07,643
Here we can see
the spread of the problem,
164
00:09:07,643 --> 00:09:10,083
with the main issues highlighted.
165
00:09:10,083 --> 00:09:12,603
That's Sue Akers
sitting at the table
166
00:09:12,603 --> 00:09:14,243
and Lynne Owens on her right.
167
00:09:14,243 --> 00:09:16,683
Oh, yeah, I know them both.
You do?
168
00:09:16,683 --> 00:09:19,123
Yeah, Lynne used to work
with my wife at Surrey
169
00:09:19,123 --> 00:09:22,443
and Sue was the Child Protection DI
at Islington when I worked up there.
170
00:09:22,443 --> 00:09:24,563
Can I have your presentation,
please?
171
00:09:24,563 --> 00:09:26,043
No, I need it.
172
00:09:26,043 --> 00:09:28,243
Your memory stick, DVD or CD-ROM.
173
00:09:28,243 --> 00:09:30,683
Yeah, I know what you're talking
about, I haven't got one.
174
00:09:33,243 --> 00:09:35,723
Thank you very much.
We'll be in touch as soon as we can.
175
00:09:40,083 --> 00:09:42,523
DCI Sutton, Operation Minstead!
176
00:09:45,683 --> 00:09:48,323
Colin, how are you?
I'm very well indeed, thanks, Ma'am.
177
00:09:48,323 --> 00:09:51,043
And thanks for slotting me in.
How's Louise?
178
00:09:51,043 --> 00:09:54,283
She's very well indeed.
Do give her my best. Yes, I will.
179
00:10:04,003 --> 00:10:06,923
I'm the acting SIO
on Operation Minstead,
180
00:10:06,923 --> 00:10:10,043
an investigation targeting
an unidentified offender
181
00:10:10,043 --> 00:10:13,363
who has carried out multiple rapes,
assaults and burglaries
182
00:10:13,363 --> 00:10:15,723
on elderly victims
in South East London
183
00:10:15,723 --> 00:10:18,083
dating back to 1992.
184
00:10:18,083 --> 00:10:19,443
CLEARS THROAT
185
00:10:19,443 --> 00:10:21,683
I believe the offender
is both sufficiently prolific
186
00:10:21,683 --> 00:10:24,923
and provably active in the same area
of Shirley
187
00:10:24,923 --> 00:10:26,843
that we can catch him in the act.
188
00:10:31,363 --> 00:10:34,203
Or that we have
a very, very good chance.
189
00:10:34,203 --> 00:10:38,283
But to exploit that chance,
I need, for an open-ended period,
190
00:10:38,283 --> 00:10:40,563
75 extra officers.
191
00:10:40,563 --> 00:10:42,283
Which I know is a significant,
192
00:10:42,283 --> 00:10:46,683
if not unprecedented number,
with a huge cost implication.
193
00:10:46,683 --> 00:10:50,403
However, with those officers,
ideally backed up by Air Support
194
00:10:50,403 --> 00:10:54,603
and with access to Central 3000,
we can thread...
195
00:10:54,603 --> 00:10:56,723
we can...
196
00:10:56,723 --> 00:11:00,523
we can throw a net
over these target streets,
197
00:11:00,523 --> 00:11:03,923
a net without holes,
more to the point.
198
00:11:05,363 --> 00:11:08,443
My confidence in this plan
is rooted in
199
00:11:08,443 --> 00:11:11,763
our subject's extraordinary levels
of offending.
200
00:11:11,763 --> 00:11:16,603
To date, at least 30 rapes,
attempted rapes and sexual assaults
201
00:11:16,603 --> 00:11:18,603
and over 100 burglaries,
202
00:11:18,603 --> 00:11:21,643
with a notable uptick in frequency
in recent months.
203
00:11:24,043 --> 00:11:27,043
So, to add a geographic component
to those figures...
204
00:11:36,643 --> 00:11:38,843
Er... look, Ma'am,
the bottom line is this.
205
00:11:38,843 --> 00:11:42,203
I've got an 80-year-old women
waiting for an HIV test.
206
00:11:42,203 --> 00:11:44,123
I've got a war hero
who's too terrified
207
00:11:44,123 --> 00:11:47,683
to tell the family liaison officer
what this man did to him.
208
00:11:47,683 --> 00:11:51,203
I've got an 81-year-old,
half-blind lady clutching my arm,
209
00:11:51,203 --> 00:11:53,483
saying, "He interfered with me."
210
00:11:53,483 --> 00:11:55,843
This has got to stop,
211
00:11:55,843 --> 00:11:58,683
and we have all got to
take responsibility for stopping it
212
00:11:58,683 --> 00:12:00,723
as soon as we can.
213
00:12:00,723 --> 00:12:05,563
This plan... this plan
is our best shot at doing that.
214
00:12:14,443 --> 00:12:16,603
You're pushing on an open door,
Colin.
215
00:12:55,523 --> 00:12:56,803
Thank you.
216
00:13:04,123 --> 00:13:06,203
RADIO: Stand by, stand by.
217
00:13:07,763 --> 00:13:09,883
So, here we are.
218
00:13:13,283 --> 00:13:16,803
Stupid question,
where do all these hook up to?
219
00:13:16,803 --> 00:13:18,603
Feeds of every description -
220
00:13:18,603 --> 00:13:22,523
CCTV, hidden cameras, TFL footage,
you name it.
221
00:13:24,283 --> 00:13:26,803
Can I ask you a question?
Sure.
222
00:13:28,123 --> 00:13:31,043
Don't get me wrong,
but how did you wangle this?
223
00:13:32,203 --> 00:13:35,483
Normally terrorism and/or
kidnapping is the price of entry.
224
00:13:36,763 --> 00:13:40,883
I applied my teenage philosophy
to asking girls out.
225
00:13:40,883 --> 00:13:42,483
Which was?
226
00:13:42,483 --> 00:13:44,683
That they can only say no.
227
00:13:44,683 --> 00:13:46,403
Which they generally did.
228
00:13:47,883 --> 00:13:49,723
Good for you.
229
00:13:54,683 --> 00:13:56,963
Are you telling us
not to get too comfortable?
230
00:13:58,523 --> 00:14:02,083
Anything terror-related,
you'll be out on your ear.
231
00:14:03,563 --> 00:14:05,843
But you knew that already.
Mm-hm.
232
00:14:09,963 --> 00:14:12,963
It's a big train set.
It's the biggest train set.
233
00:14:14,283 --> 00:14:16,763
If we don't catch him now,
we never will.
234
00:14:23,363 --> 00:14:25,803
Drink there, love.
Thanks, love.
235
00:14:31,483 --> 00:14:34,243
Buyer's remorse?
What?
236
00:14:34,243 --> 00:14:37,203
You got what you wanted,
now you're feeling the weight of it?
237
00:14:37,203 --> 00:14:39,123
Something like that, yeah.
238
00:14:46,323 --> 00:14:48,203
Oh, God, this looks like hard work.
239
00:14:48,203 --> 00:14:50,763
I just want to get it right,
what I say to them.
240
00:14:50,763 --> 00:14:53,803
There's 75 bodies out there,
night after night.
241
00:14:53,803 --> 00:14:56,843
That's 75 coppers I'm taking off
the street and out of circulation.
242
00:14:56,843 --> 00:14:58,603
It's got to work, Louise,
it's got to work.
243
00:14:58,603 --> 00:15:02,123
And you think your pep talk
will be a deciding factor?
244
00:15:02,123 --> 00:15:05,003
I need them to start
the way they mean to continue, yeah.
245
00:15:05,003 --> 00:15:08,163
Fair enough.
Most of the 75 are new to Minstead,
246
00:15:08,163 --> 00:15:10,243
and they've got to grasp
what we're dealing with,
247
00:15:10,243 --> 00:15:12,683
who we're dealing with,
and how savvy he is.
248
00:15:12,683 --> 00:15:15,003
One slip up, one little chink
of light through a curtain,
249
00:15:15,003 --> 00:15:17,363
one scrap of paper dropped
in the street... That's good.
250
00:15:17,363 --> 00:15:20,683
What? What you just said,
it's better than anything here.
251
00:15:20,683 --> 00:15:22,603
Well, thanks a lot (!)
252
00:15:22,603 --> 00:15:26,843
Go on, "One slip, one giveaway
chink of light from a curtain..."
253
00:15:26,843 --> 00:15:30,763
One carelessly discarded item...
No, what you said before was better.
254
00:15:30,763 --> 00:15:35,363
Oh. One scrap of paper
dropped in the street
255
00:15:35,363 --> 00:15:38,443
is all that it will take...
256
00:15:38,443 --> 00:15:42,683
for this super-vigilant offender
to abort his wicked mission
257
00:15:42,683 --> 00:15:44,763
and slip back into the shadows.
258
00:15:45,723 --> 00:15:50,323
You have to go out there
absolutely convinced
259
00:15:50,323 --> 00:15:52,243
that tonight is the night.
260
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:57,443
And you have to go out again
and again, until it is our night.
261
00:15:57,443 --> 00:16:00,283
Now, beware distraction.
262
00:16:00,283 --> 00:16:04,163
One text message,
one 30 second doze,
263
00:16:04,163 --> 00:16:06,443
one glance
at Tottenham's goal difference
264
00:16:06,443 --> 00:16:08,083
and you could miss him.
265
00:16:08,083 --> 00:16:11,763
OK, all the details,
all the planning, who's going where,
266
00:16:11,763 --> 00:16:13,963
the call-signs,
the equipment, the vehicles,
267
00:16:13,963 --> 00:16:17,163
I'm leaving to specialist DSes
who do this every day.
268
00:16:17,163 --> 00:16:20,523
They'll make a much better job of it
than a pen-pushing SIO.
269
00:16:20,523 --> 00:16:22,643
I will, of course,
always be available
270
00:16:22,643 --> 00:16:25,803
to sign off any overtime
or expenses claims.
271
00:16:25,803 --> 00:16:27,803
THEY CHUCKLE
272
00:16:27,803 --> 00:16:33,163
17 years, that's how long this man
has inflicted untold pain and fear
273
00:16:33,163 --> 00:16:35,963
on the most vulnerable members
of our community.
274
00:16:35,963 --> 00:16:39,563
Not just ruining lives,
but hastening their end.
275
00:16:41,283 --> 00:16:43,483
He thinks he owns those streets,
276
00:16:43,483 --> 00:16:46,443
like he owns the homes
he breaks into.
277
00:16:47,803 --> 00:16:49,723
Go out and show him you do.
278
00:16:59,643 --> 00:17:02,483
We are all set to go live at nine.
279
00:17:02,483 --> 00:17:05,083
Observation points'll be
radioing in any minute.
280
00:17:05,083 --> 00:17:07,363
What we've got here
is all the available cameras
281
00:17:07,363 --> 00:17:11,203
on the edge of your plot -
TFL, Met, Local Authority.
282
00:17:12,723 --> 00:17:14,163
DOG BARKS
283
00:17:33,963 --> 00:17:36,523
Call it in.
284
00:17:36,523 --> 00:17:38,003
'OP34 in position.'
285
00:17:38,003 --> 00:17:40,283
Confirm the position.
286
00:17:41,523 --> 00:17:43,003
Yeah, zooming in.
287
00:17:43,003 --> 00:17:45,883
'OP32 in position.'
'OP44 in position.'
288
00:17:45,883 --> 00:17:48,763
'OP27 in position.'
'OP29 in position.'
289
00:17:48,763 --> 00:17:52,043
'OP7 in position.'
In position, OP23.
290
00:17:59,803 --> 00:18:01,843
OP16 in position.
291
00:18:05,003 --> 00:18:06,843
Top-up, guv.
Thanks, Nathan.
292
00:18:06,843 --> 00:18:10,403
'OP2 in position.'
'OP28 in position.'
293
00:18:10,403 --> 00:18:12,123
'OP21 in position.'
294
00:18:12,123 --> 00:18:14,283
'OP8...'
Yes, OP8 in position.
295
00:18:16,283 --> 00:18:19,203
MAN: You still taking one sugar?
WOMAN: You should know by now.
296
00:18:19,203 --> 00:18:21,123
MAN CHUCKLES
297
00:18:22,803 --> 00:18:27,523
'OP20 in position.'
'OP1 in position.'
298
00:18:27,523 --> 00:18:30,443
That's all observation points
checked in. Good luck, everyone.
299
00:18:55,923 --> 00:18:57,963
DISTANT SIREN WAIL
300
00:19:02,563 --> 00:19:04,603
DISTANT BARKING
301
00:19:37,083 --> 00:19:39,123
HE YAWNS.
302
00:20:13,283 --> 00:20:15,203
There's some coffee for you.
303
00:20:16,243 --> 00:20:17,963
Thank you.
304
00:20:26,843 --> 00:20:29,163
There's some fresh coffee, boss,
if you fancy it.
305
00:20:29,163 --> 00:20:33,763
Oh, yeah, I'll come and get it.
Long night, no shame in it.
306
00:20:33,763 --> 00:20:36,203
I'll let you know what's happening.
307
00:20:36,203 --> 00:20:38,003
Sir. Good evening.
Good evening.
308
00:20:39,043 --> 00:20:40,923
Please, follow me.
309
00:20:40,923 --> 00:20:42,363
Who's that in the battle rattle?
310
00:20:42,363 --> 00:20:44,803
He's a Commander
in Counter Terrorism.
311
00:20:47,323 --> 00:20:49,083
Hope they're not
chucking us out already.
312
00:20:51,203 --> 00:20:53,843
We are being watched
from the very top, though.
313
00:20:53,843 --> 00:20:58,123
And there's absolutely no guarantee
that this'll pan out.
314
00:20:58,123 --> 00:21:00,803
Careful, boss, might be you
winning keys to a panda car.
315
00:21:03,003 --> 00:21:05,163
Wouldn't bloody mind, right now.
316
00:21:05,163 --> 00:21:06,883
Thank you.
317
00:21:13,203 --> 00:21:15,243
INAUDIBLE
318
00:21:42,363 --> 00:21:44,923
I didn't really expect
to catch him on the first night,
319
00:21:44,923 --> 00:21:47,763
but erm...
But it would've been nice?
320
00:21:47,763 --> 00:21:50,963
Yeah.
What's your plan today?
321
00:21:50,963 --> 00:21:53,923
I'll get my head down for a couple
of hours, then I'll go in.
322
00:21:53,923 --> 00:21:56,443
And tonight? I'll go straight
to the Control Room.
323
00:21:56,443 --> 00:21:59,243
Two hours sleep?
324
00:21:59,243 --> 00:22:00,963
Even Maggie Thatcher had three.
325
00:22:02,043 --> 00:22:04,083
I'll catch up at the weekend.
326
00:22:05,123 --> 00:22:06,523
OK.
327
00:22:08,363 --> 00:22:10,163
Bye, love.
328
00:22:13,603 --> 00:22:15,643
FAST TICKING
329
00:22:16,803 --> 00:22:18,923
HE SIGHS
330
00:22:18,923 --> 00:22:20,963
TICKING CONTINUES
331
00:22:22,083 --> 00:22:25,043
SLOW TICK-TOCK
332
00:22:25,043 --> 00:22:27,563
TAPS DRIPS
333
00:22:52,283 --> 00:22:54,323
TICKING STOPS.
334
00:22:58,723 --> 00:23:01,603
He was out last night.
Three burglaries.
335
00:23:01,603 --> 00:23:04,203
On our plot?
Bloody close, boss.
336
00:23:04,203 --> 00:23:06,523
Yeah, first two near Elmers End,
337
00:23:06,523 --> 00:23:09,163
and then third one here, at the back
of Bethlem Royal Hospital.
338
00:23:09,163 --> 00:23:11,683
Burglaries,
no contact with the victims?
339
00:23:11,683 --> 00:23:13,203
How do we know it's Minstead?
340
00:23:13,203 --> 00:23:16,963
Same tool-marks, panes removed,
knick-knacks lined up outside.
341
00:23:16,963 --> 00:23:20,563
This last one's so near the plot -
I mean, it's 200 yards, tops.
342
00:23:20,563 --> 00:23:23,043
It's like he knew.
Don't give him credit. He's lucky.
343
00:23:23,043 --> 00:23:25,443
Yeah, over and over again.
344
00:23:26,563 --> 00:23:28,203
What are you thinking, boss?
345
00:23:28,203 --> 00:23:30,483
I'm thinking it's a shame
we didn't have the 150 bodies
346
00:23:30,483 --> 00:23:31,963
we wanted, isn't it?
347
00:23:31,963 --> 00:23:36,243
What are the timings?
The first two, 2:40am and 2:50.
348
00:23:36,243 --> 00:23:37,563
That's close together.
349
00:23:37,563 --> 00:23:39,723
At the first location,
he failed to gain entry.
350
00:23:39,723 --> 00:23:41,683
What about the third?
3:30.
351
00:23:42,683 --> 00:23:44,323
Right.
352
00:23:44,323 --> 00:23:49,403
So, if he's at the second location
for a minimum of ten minutes,
353
00:23:49,403 --> 00:23:52,643
it's taken him half an hour
to get down to there.
354
00:23:52,643 --> 00:23:56,043
Well, he has to go through our plot.
He's got to be in a car as well.
355
00:23:56,043 --> 00:23:58,843
My money's on Morton Way,
straight down.
356
00:23:58,843 --> 00:24:01,923
We had a team on Morton Way,
they only saw a handful of cars.
357
00:24:01,923 --> 00:24:04,603
Right, Adam, Neville,
get down to Morton Way,
358
00:24:04,603 --> 00:24:06,163
see if you can find any CCTV.
359
00:24:06,163 --> 00:24:08,483
That could get tongues wagging
locally,
360
00:24:08,483 --> 00:24:10,603
especially if a link's made
to the robberies.
361
00:24:10,603 --> 00:24:13,083
Yeah. That's a good point, Cathy.
You need a cover story.
362
00:24:13,083 --> 00:24:16,163
Say you're trying to ID a vehicle
that outran a high-speed pursuit.
363
00:24:16,163 --> 00:24:17,763
Sounds good.
After a hit-and-run.
364
00:24:17,763 --> 00:24:20,523
Then they won't ask why uniforms
aren't dealing with it.
365
00:24:20,523 --> 00:24:21,963
Sounds better.
366
00:24:32,083 --> 00:24:33,363
Up on the right.
367
00:24:38,363 --> 00:24:40,443
St Joseph's Primary.
368
00:24:40,443 --> 00:24:42,843
Could be a shot of the road
over the hedge.
369
00:24:42,843 --> 00:24:45,003
Yeah, let's hope
they don't switch 'em off at night.
370
00:24:46,443 --> 00:24:49,723
We've had paedophiles
try and photograph the kids before,
371
00:24:49,723 --> 00:24:52,203
so I'll need the Head's blessing.
372
00:24:52,203 --> 00:24:54,243
Hang on,
do we look like paedophiles?
373
00:24:54,243 --> 00:24:56,363
Don't answer that.
This was the wee hours,
374
00:24:56,363 --> 00:24:58,843
the kids were long gone.
Rules are rules, I'm afraid.
375
00:24:58,843 --> 00:25:02,443
Give us the head's number, we'll be
sure to say how helpful you've been.
376
00:25:02,443 --> 00:25:05,083
It's just the camera overlooking
the street, you say? Mm-hm.
377
00:25:05,083 --> 00:25:06,923
Midnight to 6:00am, please.
378
00:25:06,923 --> 00:25:08,603
Mind me asking what this is about?
379
00:25:08,603 --> 00:25:11,683
Hit and run. We lost a suspect
after a high-speed chase.
380
00:25:11,683 --> 00:25:14,403
And you think they came down
Morton Way? That's right.
381
00:25:14,403 --> 00:25:17,203
Funny, I live opposite
and I didn't hear a thing.
382
00:25:17,203 --> 00:25:19,683
And I'm a light sleeper.
383
00:25:19,683 --> 00:25:22,643
We really need to see that footage,
Mr Wilson.
384
00:25:26,123 --> 00:25:30,083
3:05. That's exactly when we thought
he'd take his journey, isn't it?
385
00:25:30,083 --> 00:25:32,483
And that's the only vehicle
to go down Morton Way
386
00:25:32,483 --> 00:25:34,203
in our time frame.
387
00:25:34,203 --> 00:25:36,443
That looks like
a small people carrier to me.
388
00:25:36,443 --> 00:25:39,683
Yeah, maybe a Zafira.
389
00:25:39,683 --> 00:25:43,363
Oh, what's his name, Andy Wooller,
the vehicles expert, he'll tell us.
390
00:25:43,363 --> 00:25:45,923
Should be able to help with
the numbers in circulation, too.
391
00:25:45,923 --> 00:25:47,723
Shame we couldn't get a fucking reg.
392
00:25:47,723 --> 00:25:50,003
And that's the only CCTV camera
in the street?
393
00:25:50,003 --> 00:25:52,523
Yeah, the school aside,
Morton Way's all residential.
394
00:25:52,523 --> 00:25:54,923
There's a couple of cameras,
but they're all cheap systems
395
00:25:54,923 --> 00:25:57,283
trained on front doors,
nothing on the road.
396
00:25:57,283 --> 00:26:00,443
Oh, come on, we likely know
what car he drives - that's huge.
397
00:26:00,443 --> 00:26:02,483
We're not chasing shadows any more.
398
00:26:16,123 --> 00:26:19,003
She's stable,
but she's not eating solids.
399
00:26:19,003 --> 00:26:22,243
Still? Yeah. They're very worried
about her weight and blood pressure.
400
00:26:22,243 --> 00:26:25,203
I'm worried, too.
Yeah. That loss of appetite...
401
00:26:25,203 --> 00:26:27,723
is that due to shock, or is that
a symptom of something else?
402
00:26:27,723 --> 00:26:28,883
The former.
403
00:26:30,363 --> 00:26:32,163
As you know,
she tested negative for rape,
404
00:26:32,163 --> 00:26:35,963
but digital penetration did occur.
Far as I'm concerned, that IS rape.
405
00:26:38,123 --> 00:26:41,563
You speak to the daughter again?
This afternoon.
406
00:26:41,563 --> 00:26:44,843
Any time you want me to relieve you
there, boss... Oh, thanks, Patricia.
407
00:26:44,843 --> 00:26:47,283
She wants to come over,
but she's a single parent.
408
00:26:47,283 --> 00:26:50,563
I think, logistically, it's tough.
Maybe financially, too.
409
00:26:50,563 --> 00:26:53,443
Auckland to London can't be cheap.
Yeah.
410
00:26:53,443 --> 00:26:56,003
I'd love to help her, but
we wouldn't get the funds, would we?
411
00:26:56,003 --> 00:26:58,043
No, we wouldn't, not these days.
412
00:27:09,883 --> 00:27:13,523
Definitely a Zafira,
not a doubt in my mind.
413
00:27:13,523 --> 00:27:17,243
Looking at the Vauxhall paint chart,
it's either silver or grey.
414
00:27:17,243 --> 00:27:20,563
Unfortunately, they're
two of the most popular colours.
415
00:27:20,563 --> 00:27:23,483
But I'm confident,
from the roofline and window shape,
416
00:27:23,483 --> 00:27:25,243
it's a B-model Zafira.
417
00:27:25,243 --> 00:27:26,723
That's got to narrow it down?
418
00:27:26,723 --> 00:27:29,083
It gives us a circulation figure.
419
00:27:29,083 --> 00:27:32,283
I wouldn't say "narrow".
Go on? 48,000.
420
00:27:32,283 --> 00:27:34,003
Whew.
Nationwide?
421
00:27:34,003 --> 00:27:37,563
Well, so we prioritise the ones
registered in South London.
422
00:27:37,563 --> 00:27:40,363
Nah, doesn't work like that.
What d'you mean, Guv?
423
00:27:40,363 --> 00:27:42,163
I mean there's no correlation
424
00:27:42,163 --> 00:27:44,043
between registration
and current address.
425
00:27:44,043 --> 00:27:45,723
I've been here before.
426
00:27:45,723 --> 00:27:47,963
What, Bellfield?
Yeah.
427
00:27:47,963 --> 00:27:49,483
But you got him.
428
00:27:49,483 --> 00:27:52,283
Didn't get his poxy van, though,
and the driver nearly killed us.
429
00:27:52,283 --> 00:27:54,603
Isn't it possible
that one bad experience
430
00:27:54,603 --> 00:27:56,323
is blinding you to a good lead?
431
00:27:56,323 --> 00:27:58,523
It's the lessons of history, Cathy.
432
00:27:58,523 --> 00:28:01,483
I get that, I do, but we've got,
what, 75 plus on surveillance?
433
00:28:01,483 --> 00:28:02,803
Surely we can spare...
434
00:28:02,803 --> 00:28:05,123
No, we can't spare anyone.
Not one body.
435
00:28:05,123 --> 00:28:08,763
Less bodies means we either
shrink the plot or spread the teams.
436
00:28:08,763 --> 00:28:10,923
Given that we missed him
by 200 yards last night,
437
00:28:10,923 --> 00:28:13,243
how does either of those
sound like a good idea?
438
00:28:14,523 --> 00:28:17,003
You heard the man. We can gather
the Zafira number plates
439
00:28:17,003 --> 00:28:20,043
as and when we see them locally,
but that's it.
440
00:28:20,043 --> 00:28:21,523
We're not compromising an op
441
00:28:21,523 --> 00:28:24,883
we've worked so hard
to stage and finance, all right?
442
00:28:24,883 --> 00:28:27,803
Good. Thank you.
Thanks, Andy. Thanks, everyone.
443
00:28:29,123 --> 00:28:30,923
Thank you.
444
00:28:30,923 --> 00:28:32,883
You OK?
Yeah.
445
00:28:32,883 --> 00:28:34,883
Can you update Simon for me?
446
00:28:34,883 --> 00:28:36,803
Yeah, course, yeah.
447
00:28:36,803 --> 00:28:39,803
You're a bit of a paradox,
boss, aren't you? Eh?
448
00:28:39,803 --> 00:28:42,363
A cautious man who puts
all his eggs in one basket.
449
00:28:42,363 --> 00:28:44,403
I thought you made the better case.
450
00:28:44,403 --> 00:28:46,763
Soft touch.
Maybe I'm demob happy.
451
00:28:46,763 --> 00:28:48,883
Hm?
452
00:28:48,883 --> 00:28:51,283
Yeah, I thought you'd forgotten.
Oh, your SIO course.
453
00:28:51,283 --> 00:28:53,083
Tomorrow.
Two weeks?
454
00:28:53,083 --> 00:28:55,043
For what it's worth,
I did try and postpone it,
455
00:28:55,043 --> 00:28:57,843
but the next one's not for months,
there's no guarantee of a place...
456
00:28:57,843 --> 00:29:00,523
Forget it. Forget it, Nathan,
you've got to go. You've got to go.
457
00:29:00,523 --> 00:29:03,163
Yeah. Good luck. I'll see you
in two weeks. Thanks, boss.
458
00:29:03,163 --> 00:29:05,963
I've got a Diane Cole on the phone.
459
00:29:05,963 --> 00:29:08,043
She says you promised
to give her an update.
460
00:29:08,043 --> 00:29:10,283
Oh...
Do you want me to handle this?
461
00:29:10,283 --> 00:29:12,803
No. Can you put it through
to Simon's meeting room?
462
00:29:12,803 --> 00:29:14,883
And walk with me.
463
00:29:16,883 --> 00:29:19,883
You know we're losing Nathan
for a couple of weeks? Yeah, I know.
464
00:29:19,883 --> 00:29:22,523
How d'you feel
about filling in as my deputy?
465
00:29:22,523 --> 00:29:25,203
It's an attractive package:
loads more responsibility,
466
00:29:25,203 --> 00:29:26,963
no increase in pay or rank,
467
00:29:26,963 --> 00:29:29,563
just a requirement to survive
on two hours' kip a night.
468
00:29:29,563 --> 00:29:32,043
Thought you'd never ask.
You're a good bloke, Nev.
469
00:29:35,123 --> 00:29:37,723
Hello, Diane? It's Colin Sutton.
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
470
00:29:37,723 --> 00:29:41,003
'No, it's OK. Have you seen Mum?'
471
00:29:41,003 --> 00:29:44,883
Yes, I have. She's still very weak,
but she seems more cheerful.
472
00:29:44,883 --> 00:29:46,683
That's good.
TIMER DINGS
473
00:29:46,683 --> 00:29:50,763
Sorry, I'm just making my son
a hot drink before bed.
474
00:29:50,763 --> 00:29:52,683
'No problem.'
475
00:29:52,683 --> 00:29:54,763
Have you ever been to New Zealand?
476
00:29:54,763 --> 00:29:56,363
I'm afraid not, no.
477
00:29:56,363 --> 00:29:59,323
I've seen Lord Of The Rings,
if that counts.
478
00:29:59,323 --> 00:30:01,643
It's not all as scenic as that,
believe me.
479
00:30:01,643 --> 00:30:04,363
So, erm...
she's in better spirits?
480
00:30:04,363 --> 00:30:06,403
Yes, much better, yeah.
481
00:30:06,403 --> 00:30:08,163
She's still not eating,
482
00:30:08,163 --> 00:30:10,363
which, after two weeks,
is concerning.
483
00:30:10,363 --> 00:30:12,203
Right. But she's on the drip,
though?
484
00:30:12,203 --> 00:30:14,763
'Yes, she is, and the doctors
are doing everything they can,
485
00:30:14,763 --> 00:30:16,843
'but they are worried
about malnutrition.'
486
00:30:16,843 --> 00:30:19,843
God. Do you know why she won't eat?
487
00:30:19,843 --> 00:30:23,403
She says she's just got no appetite.
It's the shock of it all.
488
00:30:23,403 --> 00:30:27,163
'She's so quiet on the phone.
So frail.
489
00:30:27,163 --> 00:30:28,923
'It's not like Mum at all.'
490
00:30:30,043 --> 00:30:33,043
I think you should get over here
as soon as you can, Diane.
491
00:30:33,043 --> 00:30:36,043
I know you said it's not that easy,
from a childcare point of view...
492
00:30:36,043 --> 00:30:38,403
'No, I-I hear you.
493
00:30:38,403 --> 00:30:40,763
'I'll book a flight now.'
494
00:30:40,763 --> 00:30:44,523
Great. I wish we could help you
financially, I really do.
495
00:30:44,523 --> 00:30:46,323
'That's OK. Don't worry.'
496
00:30:48,963 --> 00:30:50,803
Coming so close is disappointing,
497
00:30:50,803 --> 00:30:53,363
galling -
there's no getting away from it.
498
00:30:53,363 --> 00:30:54,763
At the same time,
499
00:30:54,763 --> 00:30:59,043
it proves he's currently active
and we are right where we should be.
500
00:30:59,043 --> 00:31:01,243
I'm certain

You don't know
that's why he stopped.
595
00:38:07,723 --> 00:38:09,843
It's a big coincidence, though,
isn't it?
596
00:38:09,843 --> 00:38:11,163
He'll go to ground now.
597
00:38:11,163 --> 00:38:13,723
A near miss
might have the opposite effect.
598
00:38:13,723 --> 00:38:15,963

Mm.
604
00:38:28,683 --> 00:38:30,563
I wonder if he sleeps.
605
00:38:30,563 --> 00:38:32,963
What?
Doesn't seem like he sleeps.
606
00:38:32,963 --> 00:38:34,363
Course he sleeps.

00:38:34,363 --> 00:38:37,363
The PC who chased him last night
is 24.
608
00:38:37,363 --> 00:38:40,963
He runs a marathon every year.
I'm talking under four hours.
609

And it's not enough,
not fast enough.

00:38:44,403 --> 00:38:46,203
Who IS this bloke?
611
00:38:46,203 --> 00:38:48,523
He's been active
for nearly two decades,
612
00:38:48,523 --> 00:38:52,683
so he's no spring chicken -
35, minimum -
613
00:38:52,683 --> 00:38:55,763
but nothing slows him down,
nothing breaks his stride.
614
00:38:55,763 --> 00:38:59,923
He's driven by the weirdest
psycho-sexual urges imaginable,
615
00:38:59,923 --> 00:39:03,923
but he is in complete control
the whole time, of-of himself,
616
00:39:03,923 --> 00:39:06,403
of his crimes, of his victims...
617
00:39:06,403 --> 00:39:08,443
He's just a man, Colin.
618
00:39:08,443 --> 00:39:12,523
A sad, sorry,
messed-up excuse for a man.
619
00:39:16,003 --> 00:39:18,723
Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
620
00:39:18,723 --> 00:39:20,243
I am.
621
00:39:20,243 --> 00:39:22,683
And you need some sleep.
622
00:39:22,683 --> 00:39:23,923
Hm?
623
00:39:26,443 --> 00:39:28,363
Get some sleep.
624
00:39:31,403 --> 00:39:34,243
And if you got to Lewisham at 12
instead of ten,
625
00:39:34,243 --> 00:39:37,163
the world wouldn't come to an end.

This is family liaison officer

Can we go straight to the hospital?
661
00:42:18,803 --> 00:42:22,763
Er, yeah. Let's just step over here
for a moment, shall we? Take a seat.
662
00:42:28,603 --> 00:42:31,803
I'm afraid I've got
some very bad news.
663
00:42:31,803 --> 00:42:34,243
I'm afraid
your mother died this evening.

This has taken everyone by surprise,
Diane,
668
00:42:49,683 --> 00:42:52,163
including the doctors.
669
00:42:52,163 --> 00:42:54,763
You remember
that she'd stopped eating?
670
00:42:54,763 --> 00:42:59,723
The effects of that
on her general health were profound.
671
00:42:59,723 --> 00:43:02,403
Was... Was she in pain?
672
00:43:02,403 --> 00:43:04,243
Did she say anything?
673
00:43:04,243 --> 00:43:06,883
I only spoke to the hospital
briefly,
674
00:43:06,883 --> 00:43:10,603
but my understanding is
she died peacefully in her sleep.
675
00:43:11,843 --> 00:43:13,763
Are you any nearer to catching him?
676
00:43:15,043 --> 00:43:17,403
I believe so, yeah.
When you do...
677
00:43:17,403 --> 00:43:18,803
he'll go down for murder, right?
678
00:43:18,803 --> 00:43:21,363
Because he basically killed her
that night.
679
00:43:21,363 --> 00:43:22,883
Oh, it's complicated.
680
00:43:22,883 --> 00:43:25,003
How is it complicated?
681
00:43:25,003 --> 00:43:26,723
Legally speaking, er,
682
00:43:26,723 --> 00:43:28,883
it'll come down to
something called causation.
683
00:43:28,883 --> 00:43:30,883
And what does that mean?
684
00:43:30,883 --> 00:43:33,803
Well, let's not get into that.
No, I-I want to go into it now!
685
00:43:35,683 --> 00:43:39,803
Medically speaking, your mum died
because of a lack of food.
686
00:43:39,803 --> 00:43:42,283
"Malnutrition" is what it'll say
on the death certificate.
687
00:43:42,283 --> 00:43:44,963
Well, when she was attacked,
she stopped eating.
688
00:43:44,963 --> 00:43:47,523
There's your causation.
689
00:43:47,523 --> 00:43:50,123
Diane... Are you telling me
that she wouldn't still be alive
690
00:43:50,123 --> 00:43:52,723
if he hadn't done what he did?
691
00:43:52,723 --> 00:43:55,403
No. No, I'm not saying that.
692
00:43:55,403 --> 00:43:58,123
I'm just saying
be prepared for disappointment.
693
00:43:58,123 --> 00:44:00,523
Because... in the eyes of the law,
694
00:44:00,523 --> 00:44:03,363
that chain of events, um...
695
00:44:03,363 --> 00:44:06,363
will struggle to meet
the legal definition of murder.
696
00:44:06,363 --> 00:44:08,643
Or even manslaughter.
697
00:44:08,643 --> 00:44:11,283
Malnutrition? Oh, my God.
698
00:44:14,443 --> 00:44:16,363
I'm so sorry.
699
00:44:18,403 --> 00:44:20,523
Diane, when we catch this man -
700
00:44:20,523 --> 00:44:23,323
and we WILL catch him -
701
00:44:23,323 --> 00:44:27,523
that's the time to give him
your focus and attention.
702
00:44:27,523 --> 00:44:30,363
The trial, the verdict,
the sentencing,
703
00:44:30,363 --> 00:44:31,563
that's what they're for.
704
00:44:31,563 --> 00:44:33,323
SHE SNIFFS
705
00:44:33,323 --> 00:44:36,163
But in the meantime,
you need to grieve for your mum.
706
00:44:36,163 --> 00:44:41,323
And in order to do that properly,
you need to shut him out.
707
00:44:41,323 --> 00:44:44,723
Save all that anger
for down the line.
708
00:44:44,723 --> 00:44:47,283
Try to make today...
709
00:44:47,283 --> 00:44:50,083
about you and your mum,
and no-one else.
710
00:44:51,563 --> 00:44:53,363
I know that's easier said than done.
711
00:44:53,363 --> 00:44:55,123
No, you're right.
712
00:44:55,123 --> 00:44:58,363
He doesn't... deserve...
713
00:44:58,363 --> 00:45:00,163
SHE SOBS
714
00:45:00,163 --> 00:45:02,443
No, he doesn't.
715
00:45:10,123 --> 00:45:12,563
