We're after finding something of concern.
It was just bones. Not like seeing a fresh one.
Boy wonder here's in charge.
We're exhuming the bodies of Mr and Mrs Burke.
See if the remains are a DNA match.
You shouldn't have exhumed those bodies!
"TB, BH." Forensics found it with the bones.
Tommy Burke, Brid Harrington.
Ooh!
Brid and Evelyn. Thick as thieves they used to be,
and now neither of them'll look the other in the eye.

Mrs Riordan, Brid. It's Sergeant Collins. PJ.
Look, I'm worried. We're all worried about you.
You need to answer the phone to someone.
You know you can talk to me. Please...
call me back. OK? OK.
Oh, God! You frightened the life out of me.
Jesus wept! Did you phone Brid's husband?
No, I went over. He wasn't home.
I'll go over again.
At eight o'clock in the morning? Yeah, it's all a bit odd.
The Ross sisters had their children overnight.
That's a disgrace. Ah, now...
Now, now, now. Sausages won't buy themselves, you know.
All right. And by the way...
Very sorry about that. Sorry about what?
What's she sorry about?
Brid Riordan show up?
No. You're worrying about nothing.
I don't know, is it strange?
Brid and Evelyn Ross were both... er... congregating with Tommy Burke.
His body - corpse - body turns up, they're seen fighting,
and Brid Riordan disappears?
The plot thickens, Peej!
My name is PJ.
That's my best towel!
Oh, do you want it back? No. Ooh!
Jesus, I'm only messing.
The boss and I thinks it makes
more sense for me to stay here while we wait
for the exhumation results.
Yeah, about that. People are upset.
Well, tell people that murders tend to be upsetting, PJ!

Hello. Morning.
VIBRATING, THE SWEENEY THEME TUNE PLAYS
No, Linus. No news.
OK. OK, on the way.
The night of Tommy Burke's stag was carnage!
Everyone was annihilated. How was it carnage?
Bit of Gorgonzola, PJ.
How was it carnage?
Everyone was invited, the whole village.
Except poor Brid at home and Evelyn Ross wriggling herself up on Tommy.
Tommy was entitled to a pint.
Sure, wasn't it his stag?
Oh!
I have something to show you.
Brid has no cop on.
She makes mistake after mistake.
What kind of mistakes, Kitty?
You've the same cheekbones as me.
People love a cheekbone. Kitty?
Can you think of anyone who had reason to want Tommy dead?
No.
Tommy's mother, whose grave you pulled up,
used to come in here begging for credit to buy the few messages!
Sure Tommy had no choice but to marry Brid and her big farm.
Susan, you spoke to me about Evelyn and Brid.
You felt they could have hurt Tommy together?
Oh, God, no, I didn't mean that!
Just that they both loved him.
That's all.
Tommy asked me to video the wedding, on the cheap.
I tested out the camera the night before.
Didn't have a clue what I was doing.
I left it on, saw... It's mostly knees,
but Tommy's voice is in there.
Can I take the whole camera? I suppose, yeah.
Jamon Iberico? Er, listen, er,
Brid Riordan hasn't been seen.
Did you hear anything? Oh, she was here the other day.
Buying a rake of mini wines. She was very curt.
She should have fought to make Tommy like her.
He was happy enough to marry her, once I had a word in his ear.
He was fixated on Evelyn Ross, but Brid was getting the ring!
He came and showed me it.
He sat so close, I thought he was going to slip it on my finger!

I want to talk to the Rosses about Brid.
Evelyn must know something.
Today is about questioning the village about Tommy.
Don't get distracted! I'm not!
Nice swim?
I'm wondering about Brid Riordan.
We don't know where she is.
Let's try an easier question.
Evelyn, where were you on the day of Brid Riordan
and Tommy Burke's wedding? In bed.
I was out the night before.
You went to the lads' stag?
She was at the pub that night. We all were.
Let's cut the shite. I was 17.
You know I was shagging Tommy, yes?
I went to his stag, the whole town did.
I drank two bottles of red wine,
then puked them up on the good rug and passed out.
So I don't know what Tommy did 20 years ago.
If he's dead, he's dead, but you won't get tears out of me.
It's not tears we're after. It's intel.
Oh, intel... is it, Sergeant? Very good (!)
Who around here would have reason to want Tommy Burke dead?
Oh, apart from the woman he left standing at the altar like a dope?
If we knew where Brid Riordan was, we'd be asking her.
PHONE RINGING
Well, when you track her down,
let her know where her kids are. Excuse me.
I know. I know. But I told you,
stop phoning me - I'll phone you.
Excuse me.
EVELYN: Get out!
Get out of there. Carmel!
You can't go in there, OK? It's not safe.
After you were on the beach with Brid, what happened to her?
No idea. She's a grown woman.
Should you not be focusing on murderers,
rather than some drunk mum?
We're focused on both.
It's all just gossip at this stage.
Even the only bit of video evidence we got was just blurry legs.
We don't have anything yet.
Oh, for goodness sake!
Why aren't you eating your tea? Bit of heartburn.
Can I have your steak, so?
Er... Yeah, OK, go ahead, take it. Growing boy.
Mr Riordan? Yes?
Mucky aul' business, eh? Farming? Yeah.
Right... yes. Listen, I wanted to have a chat
with you about Brid in person.
Do you wanna go inside?
Is there bad news?
Oh, no, just in so much as maybe we could speak in the kitchen?
Oh, no, we're grand here. OK... Well...
We've checked the hospitals and I've phoned all the local pubs
and there's no sign. Have you any thoughts on where she might be?
No idea. I've called her 50 times.
But she'll come back when she's ready.
OK. Well, if you think of
anywhere she might be, just give me a call any time.
I will. This must be...
..difficult.
So, did you just come back here to give the children Spanish ham or...
No, I'm sorry. I can't stop thinking about Brid.
She's probs on an adventure.
Has she been upset recently, Cathal?
Did she say anything?
Y'know, me and my dad were great pals.
We were always on the go together.
So are me and Mam. What's your favourite thing to do with her?
Dancing. And she takes me for the best sandwich.
The cheese smells rotten, but it tastes amazing.
So, tell me, where is the best sandwich, Cathal?
In a sticky red room with karaoke.
Thank you.

I haven't told the Guards something.
I haven't shown this to anyone.

I think he was planning to head to London.
Look...
"One world was not enough for two"
"like me and you."
He wrote it in the letter.

Oh, I shouldn't have told you.

..killed himself when she was very young. She's angry.

Not too bad, all things considered.
If you'd breathalysed me... Yes.
This is getting a bit messy.
We need to speak formally.

I'm not sure, to be honest with you.

Oh! Are you? It's just you don't look...
Please don't say I don't look gay.
Sorry, yeah, very ignorant.

Truly, utterly, happily gay, yeah.

No. Listen to me... She keeps calling for you.
Hm? Your boss woman.
Ooh! Where's PJ? Why should I...
I have no idea where he is.
Oh! Aoife, I'll see you later, yeah? Yeah, sure.
Sorry! Er, is Anthony here?
No. He's said that he'll bring back the kids to visit me,
if I prove I haven't drunk in a week.
And how's that going?
I'm trying to stop.
I am so proud of you.
That was an inappropriate thing to say. Excuse me.
Anthony and I are not...
..er... It's...
..dead.
Was it ever alive?
Sorry.
And is this the ring Tommy Burke was going to wear on your wedding day?
Yes. I think so. Yes. OK.
The night before the wedding, where were you?
Here, with my mother, setting up for the reception the next day,
while the whole town thudded with the craic of Tommy's stag.
Did you love Tommy?
I thought I did.
Did he love you? Doubt it.
That must have been hard. Frustrating?
I didn't kill him. I did not!
I got dressed to marry him.
I sat in this chair in my stupid flouncy dress,
putting blusher on in the shine of the kettle.
I knew he was seeing Evelyn, but I thought he'd turn up for me,
for my big farm.
So I went to the church with my mam...
..and I waited for him.
And he didn't come.
Right. Do you still have your wedding ring from that day?
I came home and drank the cider-y wine we'd lined up for the guests,
and I threw the ring in the sewer out the back.
That day was hell. I didn't want any reminder.
I presumed he'd run away with Evelyn, fucked off into the sunset,
but she was still here, and he was gone, and...
I don't know who sent that note, PJ. I didn't do it.
OK.
I didn't do it.
OK, OK, OK. Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. Shh. OK.

Magnificently... beautiful.
So are you.
Are you OK?
I shouldn't have done that.
Did you hate it? Oh, God!
No. It was miraculous.
