Thanks again for coming forward.
Those appeals for information,
a lot of people just keep their heads down.
Honestly, it's... it's not a problem.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Ah. Here we go. So this is your statement.
It goes through everything you said on the information line yesterday,
and then everything you said to me just now.
Are you sure you can't even give me a little clue?
At the moment we're just trying
to establish whether this information is relevant.
OK, but so you know,
that when my son asks, it's either
going to be 'bank heist' or 'mafia drive-by'.
If you just take a quick look over the statement,
to make sure everything's accurate.
You've taken my name and address off.
Yes, that's right. Why?
Erm, well at the moment we're just happy
to keep your statement on record and, then,
if things proceed we'll put your name on it later.
Yeah, but... Why?
It's nothing to worry about.
It's very common, that's all.
Witness Number 3.
Glamorous.
See you in a few weeks.
Say hi to Dave for me, yeah? Bye.
That one's my favourite, definitely.
These are mine. Chuck it in your mouth, then.
One, two, three, go.
That's so bad. That was so bad.
Aww. That was close.
I told you. Originals are the best, innit?
None of that Nerd nonsense.
Will you miss it round here?
I don't know.
You've lived here all your life.
Yeh, but...
Well, I don't know. What?
Nothing? I just...
I don't know if I like it here anymore.
Mine. You ain't having any more.
One, two, three, four...
On the last one you did, you need to be more round like this.
More round. One, two, three, four...
Excuse me. Erm, sorry to bother you, but...
Can I borrow your phone?
I've been locked out of my flat, I need to call my brother.
Right, where do you live?
Literally just over there.
In Gladstone?
Yeah. Gladstone.
You see, somebodies stole my keys,
so I need to call my brother.
I can pay you back.
Mum.
Yeah... Yeah.
Sure, erm, one second.
There you go.
What do you want for dinner tonight? Erm, chicken nuggets.
Chicken nuggets, again? Yeah. You can't have chicken nuggets again,
you had 'em last night. What? You had them last night, no.
PHONE RINGS
No answer.
No? Do you wanna try someone else?
Nah. You're all right.
Right. Good luck, yeah.
Yeah. Cheers.
Come on.
No to chicken nuggets.
Shepherd's pie.
Here you are, take these.
Wash your hands, please, and homework before Xbox, yeah?
And make sure your inhaler's in your bag for tomorrow.

FADES INTO DISTANCE
Well, I haven't signed anything yet, have I?
You couldn't wait to get down there.
You only had to ask to stay over, y'know. Oh, yeah?
Well, then, I can think twice about letting you move in.
Oh, God, they've put a sign up asking for information,
I mean, everyone would do that, right?
Look, it's not a bad thing, you're a good citizen.
I'm just saying, most people, they keep their heads down,
keep their feedback to themselves.
But you, you like to be in it, don't you? Where the action is.
BANGING ON DOOR
Jodie...
BANGING Jodie?!
GASPS
We are finished.
No. Mirrors, sinks, bottles, and then we are finished.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
You must be psyched to get Kyle out of this place.
Yeah. I don't know. Maybe.
What, you think stick around, work hard,
see if you can get him into a really good gang?
PHONE RINGS
Jodie's, how can I help?
Hello?
No-one there.
We encourage you to watch the whole thing through once first.
Then after a second or third viewing,
if you recognise the man you saw,
you just tell me the number.
Make sense?
Sure.
It's like the worst dating app ever.
Just let me know when you're ready.
Ready.
So, did I get the right guy?
I can confirm that you identified the same man,
we currently have in custody.
It's very helpful.
Right. Oh, well, that's good.
Now, if you don't mind, I'd actually like
to clarify one or two things that you said in your statement.
Yeah. So, you said that one of the men was wearing a grey hoodie.
Erm, yeah. And you could see that clearly?
Oh, well, I can remember thinking it could do with
a quick wash, if I'm honest.
Oh, OK? Erm, might have had a picture on
the back, now that I'm thinking about it.
Oh, OK? Eyes, maybe.
A pair of eyes or something.
You're sure about that? Erm, well, I think so, yeah.
KNOCK AT DOOR
OK. Thanks.
Now, your statement says that the two men were quiet,
nothing was ever said?
Oh, well, I was inside so I didn't hear. No shouting or...
No... No, definitely no shouting.
The atmosphere didn't seem tense at all?
Well, it was quick. You know a few seconds.
And neither man was holding anything,
as far as you could see?
Huh.
I don't think so.
You're sure about that?
Erm, well, what kind of thing?
Something like that?
Erm...
..no.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Oh, Ivan, yeah.
Now, as I explained before, Mrs Packer,
now that you have successfully identified our suspect,
you've become what we call a 'Significant Witness',
which means we intend to use your statement
to help build a case. PC Barkas works locally here,
he's gonna be your Witness Contact Officer.
So, any questions, concerns or anything at all,
you go through him. Is that OK?
Erm, yeah, yeah, OK.
Erm, do you need me to sign my statement yet?
No, not yet.
Erm, if and when we charge a suspect,
we'll cross that bridge. OK?
OK, yeah.
I'll let PC Barkas show you out.
Yeah, thanks.
OK. Yeah.
You've cut your hair.
Sorry? And the nose ring?
It looks much better without it.
You don't know who I am, do you?
Nope. No that's fair enough.
Erm, I'm Ivan Barkas.
You went out with my brother, Dan.
Shit, yeah.
Yeah, erm, Dan's little brother.
Yeah, I like to say younger brother, but, yeah, yeah.
OK, erm...
Erm, Detective Whelan, she... she mentioned other witnesses. Is...?
Two. Also placing the suspect in the area.
OK.
Erm, I'll show you out.
Yeah.
He's gonna love it.
Can I ask you something?
Did you ever consider moving in with us?
To the estate?
I have lived there my whole life.
I mean, we never even talked about it.
You don't need to feel guilty that you've done well, Jodie.
I don't feel guilty.
Are you sure? Oh, shut up. I don't feel guilty.
So you're happy, then?
Here we go.
I'm just saying.
What, Mum? What are you just saying?
You think Paul's the one who's made this decision for me?
Oh, this is one of them with no sugar in.
I've told you before, if it says 'light', it won't get eaten.
I look after Kyle. I look after the salon.
I look after you.
I've spent the last ten years looking after everyone else,
so, yeah, yeah, having someone who can take care of themselves
and, you're not gonna believe this, but you know,
look after me every now and again, is pretty bloody sweet.
Well, that's all I'm saying, he can take care of himself.
How have you picked that out of what I just said?
Did he offer to move here?
Oh, God. You don't know what you're talking about.
Of course.
Look, I'm sorry, Mum, but what do you expect me to do, eh?
Stay here my whole life campaigning for new paint
for the community centre?
Well, would that be a bad thing?
I get it, OK, mum, I get it, I do.
40 years ago they were gonna knock down the playground in Atlee
and build a new car park and you and Dad,
you and Dad went round everyone, knocking on doors...
Yeah. Don't laugh.
..marched hand in hand down to the council office
and got them to build it somewhere else.
Yeah, well, that playground is where you met half your friends.
Yeah, you got some leaflets printed and it saved the bloody day,
didn't it? Mm.
So, what are you gonna do, then, cut your losses?
Leave everybody to fend for themselves?
How did that work out last time?
CARTOONS PLAY ON TV
PHONE BUZZES
This is the first one?
Yeah. Then about half an hour later, all these came through.
And you don't recognise the number?
No.
SCREAMING
LAUGHS MANICALLY
SCREAMS
OK.
You've forwarded them to me,
you've told me about the boy who borrowed your phone.
I'll show the team.
And in the meantime...?
Try not to worry.
They will look into this.
Can you confirm this was the hoodie worn by the man you saw?
Thank you for that, Jodie.
So, now that you've confirmed...
Was he killed?
I mean, he...he is dead right?
And now, with your statement, we can charge the man who did it.
What, the man I saw?
That's right.
Well, who is he?
He...he is part of the gang on the estate, though, right?
There's still a lot that we need to establish.
But what I can tell you, is that now you've done this,
you've ID'd the hoodie,
we can move forward with charging the suspect.
OK. And what that means is you will now
need to sign your witness statement in your own name.
That's a legal requirement if we're going to submit
the statement as a piece of evidence.
Now, I'm obliged to make it clear to you
that once you've signed this statement,
you will be compellable to stand by it in court.
An eyewitness testimony like yours, Jodie,
that's what's could make or break this case.
Maybe we can give Jodie a day or two?
To get her head round everything?
Yeah.
Hello?
Speaking.
Yeah, he's my son. What's... What's happened?
HEAVY BREATHING
SNIGGERING
You need to make sure your inhalers in your bag when you go boxing.
It was in my bag.
Really? It was.
Then why is there an ambulance here?
Look, I'm not saying you can't join in.
I'm just saying you need to be sensible, all right?
I know it's hard, I do,
but you just need to accept there are some things...
..there are some things that you can't do.
Yeah?
You scared me, all right?
So, do you know that park out the back of school?
Yeah. Hmm.
Yeah, well, back in the day there was this old caretaker.
And this caretaker killed a girl at the school.
Chopped her up with his saw or whatever
and buried her in that park. All right, Kyle.
Well, a few days ago, me, Callum and Mo were at the back of the park
and Callum was messing about by the old caretaker's shed.
As a dare he tries the door and it's unlocked.
So he sneaks in, closes the door,
and he's in there for ages,
and when he comes out, he's got this little piece of paper,
with a sketch map of the park drawn on it,
with an X drawn in a corner.
So, soon as school's over, we go to where the X is
and it's in this dark little bit with trees and bushes
and everything, so we climb over this bush,
and we see this half buried sports bag,
in some plants and stuff,
so we pull it out
and its proper old, the zips like falling apart.
We open it up and then we see...
HORN BLARES FROM PHONE
You idiot.
Callum did it to me.
I saw it coming.
Idiot.
So, how are you feeling?
Fine. For the thousandth time.
Ugh.
I got a ghost story.
Great. Yeah. Go on.
Yeah, you'll have to come in real close,
cos I don't Wobble Gobble to hear.
Have I told you the story about Wobble Gobble?
Right, now, late at night,
if you go outside and you say the words Wobble Gobble three times,
she'll hear you.
She's gonna get yer.
And then if you, if you say it five times, well, she might go.
Do you wanna see?!
PHONE BUZZES
Erm, just leave it.
Go on keep talking about Wobble Gobble whatever.
Finish your story.
So I met Wobble Gobble.
BUZZING
Kids, erm, go upstairs for one second, yeah?
Now.
I don't understand, can't they trace it or look into the account or...
I know. ..find the number who sent the texts? It's frustrating.
It's not about being frustrated.
I mean...
..is this not serious?
Jodie, of course it is. They're not ignoring this.
They are across this, OK?
They followed me, Ivan.
I know.
The things is, in cases like this,
where there's maybe potential for witness intimidation,
we have to apply for funds to take special measures.
OK.
Right. Well, when they do that, one of the things they look
for is potential other sources of aggravation.
It's not... I don't even know what you're talking about.
Your late husband, Benjamin Redmond.
Now, I know he was just an addict.
But what the system shows, is that he is associated with a gang
and that he was arrested three times on drug related charges.
This has nothing to do with Benji.
OK?
OK. No... No, there are no other sources of aggravation,
this here is the source of aggravation.
Look. I know this is shit.
But from today, I'm going to be keeping watch over you,
Kyle and your flat.
It's gonna be part of my beat.
And if I see anyone, or anything that doesn't look right,
I'll be on it.
I didn't ask for this.
No, I know. I know.
I just looked out a window.
Do you live near here, then?
Excuse me?
You local? Erm, yeah.
I've just moved here.
Right.
You lived here long?
Yeah.
This is your place, isn't it?
What's with all the questions?
What?
Why do you wanna know?
Jodie. Why the fuck do you keep asking me all these questions?
Excuse me? Jodie.
Sorry.
Are you scared?
Yeah.
My brother, he used to sell a bit of weed, right,
just a bit of pocket money.
And last year, when this lot came in,
they jumped him outside of Nan's house.
Bunch of kids,
half his size, but there's bare of them and they are wild,
like, vicious.
They dragged him down the road and stabbed him in the shoulder,
and in the leg and in the neck.
Sliced his face so bad he couldn't talk for a month.
Dee. You've done loads for this estate.
Like taking people like me, giving us a chance.
But this is bigger than a few jobs.
If you can get 'em, Jodie, then you need to get 'em.
Come here.
Did you find your inhaler?
No. It's definitely not in my bag. Maybe I left it at school.
So have you got much homework to do?
Erm, a few pieces.
OK. Do you have to hand it in tomorrow?
POLICE WALKIE BEEPS
Hey. Sorry, I said I'd be keeping an eye out.
Listen, have you got two minutes?
Er, yeah. Kyle, go in love.
There's something I need to tell you.
I don't understand, when?
Today. This morning.
Kyle. Will you turn that down or turn it off, or something, love?
What happened? Look, I was just told that the other two witnesses
are out, can't use them any more.
Plus...
Plus what?
There was a newsagents.
The CCTV hard drive was blank.
There's nothing on it.
Listen, Jodie, if anyone asks,
I advised you to fully co-operate, didn't I?
OK. Yeah.
This organisation, it ain't just local, and it ain't just kids.
This is serious.
And the guy they're gonna charge, he's somebody, OK?
We're talking high up.
Without other witnesses, without the CCTV,
you are the difference between him going down or walking free.
I guess I'm just saying,
no-one would think any less of you.
At least, I won't, anyway.
You've not changed, you know.
Seriously. Just how I remember.
Yeah. Just the Ms Dynamite tracksuit gone, eh?
Dan was heartbroken when you dumped him.
Ah, we were barely going out.
He cried in his room for weeks.
Maybe I was a bit harsh.
I mean, we were young.
What would you do?
If you were me, what would you do?
I can't answer that.
BANGING ON DOOR
You OK?
Yeah.
Listen, I'm not going to sign the statement.
All this stuff is going to go away now, OK? All the police stuff.
So you don't need to be stressed about it.
I don't know if you were stressed by it...
I wasn't.
It's OK. I knew you'd pull out.
Yeah?
Yeah.
You've got to accept there are some things you can't do. Right?
Right.

He ain't gonna change his mind.
I am gonna do what everyone else would do,
I am gonna close the door, I am gonna lock the windows,
and hope the whole thing goes away.
We're already inside.
They're trying to unsettle you.
This is our chance to finally get rid of 'em.
