00:0078 miles an hour.
00:04You're looking at a decade in prison.
00:08You were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
00:10We played cards.
00:11We haven't done anything.
00:12Arrest them all!
00:13God still loves you.
00:15I was wrong to call you names, and I apologize.
00:18It was an accident.
00:19Speedo was already broken.
00:21We're releasing you without charge.
00:22That's it.
00:23All done.
00:30I have two hours left.
00:36I'm both six hours left.
00:37You were working for a big nation.
00:40You were all moving back to the city.
00:42I knew that there was Ravings,
00:43that I had a much better feeling than that.
00:44It had no doubt.
00:45I died.
00:46I was even scared and tired.
00:47I was not a part of the city.
00:48I was a big guy.
00:49I was a big guy for 10 years.
00:50I was a big guy.
00:51I ran back to all of my friends.
00:52I was a big guy.
00:53I was a big guy, man.
00:54I was a big guy.
00:55I was a big guy, man.
00:56I was a big guy.
00:57My brother.
00:58I was a big guy.
00:59There you are.
01:18Come on, let's get cracking.
01:20I'm in my best frock here.
01:22Tell me again where we're going to see a painting.
01:25Well, I thought a man of your education would love art.
01:27Well, I do, but...
01:29It's not any old painting.
01:32This piece, already of historic artistic significance,
01:36is on loan from a collection in Italy.
01:39Fantastico.
01:43I love a man with an accent.
01:49We are going to have a lovely day.
01:53Take your mind off things.
01:54What things?
01:55I know you think I'm pretending the accident didn't happen, but I'm not.
02:01But it'd be better if you had Bonnie around to talk about it, though.
02:03Mum's had a stroke. Needs her more than I do.
02:06Besides, if I need a pair of ears, I'm all sorted.
02:09What, him?
02:10No.
02:11Oh, don't you panic. I mean him.
02:14Oh, yeah.
02:15Come on, then.
02:16See this painting?
02:19I'm really worried about him.
02:21Which is why we're here.
02:23You think I want to spend my day off staring at a bloody painting?
02:27Miserable git. Come on.
02:28Today is about Will, not you.
02:30You think they've got a sign up.
02:36Oh, excuse me.
02:38Sorry, do you work here?
02:39For my sins.
02:40I don't suppose you know where we need to go for this painting?
02:43Through the passage, take a right up the stairs and you'll hear Dr Abbott.
02:47Absolutely no flash photography.
03:03Damages of colours.
03:05Apparently.
03:06Only six people at a time in my room.
03:09Stay back from the artwork at all times.
03:17Reclining Nude by Modigliani.
03:29When she was displayed for sale in a gallery window,
03:32the police in Milan shut it down that very same day.
03:36I think they did everyone a favour.
03:38I mean, you get this sort of thing in every dirty magazine I've ever seen.
03:44Through my work.
03:47Well, I think it's rather beautiful.
03:49A celebration of the female form.
03:51I couldn't agree more.
03:52How long do you have it on loan for?
03:54Only another week.
03:56Frankly, I'd like to keep her to myself for the duration, but...
04:00What's the name of the artist again?
04:07Modigliani.
04:09I've been writing a paper on his series of nudes for the last seven years.
04:13When do you think you'll get it finished?
04:14Well, I retire next year, so I must.
04:19But with my muse to focus me,
04:22I have high hopes of delivering something groundbreaking.
04:27Then I should go to Italy to see the entire series.
04:33So what do you think?
04:34I like it.
04:38She doesn't look the least bit worried about her body.
04:43Mind you, I don't reckon she's had four kids.
04:46I told you everybody would be dressed, Dad.
05:09Yeah, this suit is a classic.
05:12I'd like to thank you all for coming on this most special of days.
05:22I'm sure you were all excited to find yourselves in such close proximity to that wonderful lady.
05:29I know I have to pinch myself each time I look at her.
05:34I have been attempting to have a piece from this series brought on loan to this college ever since I became a fellow.
05:42And I could not be more proud to announce that I have achieved just that.
05:48This is an event for patrons and students of the college.
05:53We are here today to protest against the hypocrisy towards women in art.
05:58Leave the college immediately.
06:00I said we are here today to protest against the hypocrisy towards women in art.
06:07You, boy, go and fetch a port, I've got these women thrown out of here.
06:11Have you ever asked yourselves why it is considered perfectly acceptable to gaze upon the female naked body in art?
06:21But in real life, women are expected to wear appropriately modest clothing.
06:26Oh, she's got a fair point.
06:28Oh, blimey.
06:30Oh, bloody hell.
06:33Where the hell are the porters?
06:34Clothing deemed appropriately modest.
06:37Not by women themselves.
06:39But by men.
06:40Men who don't even stop to ask women what they think or feel.
06:44Men who think that it's their right to decide for women.
06:49This is disgusting.
06:57Right.
06:59I shall fetch the porters myself.
07:02We're in it.
07:03Really?
07:05And around the world will no longer be taught how to dress or how to behave.
07:12This is getting out of hand.
07:14We're standing with you for the heart of oppressed women everywhere.
07:18All right, ladies.
07:19And bring down the...
07:21Ladies, time to cover up.
07:24It's police, so you probably should listen.
07:27Staging a protest isn't a crime.
07:30No, but whipping your top off in public is.
07:32Well, I think you made your point.
07:35Rather eloquently, I'd say.
07:36A man of the cloth.
07:38Here to explain why women need to know their place.
07:41No.
07:42Water!
07:42Jump!
07:45Please don't make me arrest you.
07:47Enough of all this now.
07:48Run!
07:48You shouldn't be ashamed.
07:49Stay right there.
07:50You don't.
07:52Come back.
07:55Come here.
07:55You may call me a troublemaker.
08:01A rebel, even.
08:05But it's time to make a stand.
08:08For the truth.
08:10Right, that'll do, Lady Godiva.
08:14Thank you, Mrs. Keating.
08:17And you are coming with me.
08:20Help!
08:21Help!
08:23Theft!
08:25Theft!
08:25Theft!
08:25Have you arrested those vile women?
08:39We've one in custody, yes.
08:40She's been taken to the station.
08:42What about the others?
08:45They run off.
08:46You have to find the whole monstrous regiment.
08:49They're obviously all involved.
08:50I'll get some men down here.
08:51You do understand the seriousness of all this.
08:56We're talking about an irreplaceable piece of art.
09:00We understand how valuable it is, of course.
09:02This is the work of historical importance.
09:05You should be searching the corridors.
09:07Seating off the streets.
09:09Like I say, we'll get some men down here.
09:12Reputation for this college will be in tatters.
09:16Are you sure you locked it?
09:17Of course I'm, bloody.
09:19Could you confirm who has keys beside you?
09:21Porchers.
09:23Not too hard to pick it down.
09:26If you had a mind.
09:34Hilarious.
09:37Can't keep up with a few young ladies, boss.
09:39They gave you the right runaround.
09:44DCI Wallace has made some calls to the Flying Squad.
09:47Asked them to keep ears to the ground.
09:48He thinks this is a job by a London gang.
09:51He thinks it's more than likely.
09:53He's gone to meet with the Chancellor of the University to smooth a few feathers.
09:58Assure him that this is our top priority.
10:02Get over to the college and interview the porters.
10:04Boss.
10:07Which leaves us with Betty Grable.
10:09Will you please get dressed?
10:20No.
10:23This is bloody ridiculous.
10:25This is a protest against the hypocrisy towards women.
10:28Now what the hell does that mean?
10:29It means that you, and when I say you, I mean men, are perfectly happy to look at women's
10:36naked bodies in art.
10:37But when it comes to real women, you want to tell us what to do with our bodies.
10:41You want to tell us what to wear.
10:43What is and is not decent.
10:44Tell us all...
10:45What I'm telling you now is that you need to stop rattling and answer my questions.
10:51First off, name and address.
10:54No.
10:59Look, we understand that you're frustrated.
11:02Why are you even here?
11:03A few Hail Marys is not going to bring the patriarchy down, Vicar.
11:07Never mind the bloody patriarchy.
11:08A valuable painting has been stolen, and right now, it looks like you and your friends were
11:14involved.
11:18Was this some sort of student prank?
11:20You girls provide a distraction, someone nicks the painting?
11:24Perhaps you didn't know about the theft, but the thieves knew about the protest and used
11:29it as cover.
11:30Could you tell us who had that information?
11:34No.
11:38She brought on herself, wasting police time, when all she needed to do was answer a few
11:52simple questions.
11:54Geordie.
11:56Larry's calling from the college where the exhibition was.
11:58You need to get down there.
12:08This bed of Josephine, found him about an hour ago.
12:15His name is Peter Delaney.
12:16He's one of the porters here.
12:2422 years old.
12:27He worked here as a porter, a porter.
12:29There's a head injury.
12:32What kind of dog am I?
12:34I don't look like himself, Scott.
12:36Will.
12:50All right, you could leave this to us.
12:52Don't worry.
12:56Well, there's the head injury.
12:59It's deep.
13:01Almost two inches wide.
13:02Looks like a blow to the back of their head.
13:07I'm assuming with that...
13:08Why would anyone do this?
13:11Thieves come for the painting.
13:12When a porter disturbs him, he's collateral damage.
13:16Maybe.
13:17But we need to check if anyone else might want him dead.
13:21Larry, seal it off right away.
13:23Nothing short of a tragedy.
13:35These vicious thieves.
13:37They cannot want job for the art.
13:39Now, let's not forget a man's life's been lost here.
13:42Peter Delaney.
13:43Ah, Berlin knew him.
13:45If you could tell us anything at all, it would help.
13:48What sort of man was he?
13:51Well, he was a...
13:52He was a porter.
13:54Well, more than our jobs, surely.
13:56Well, yes, of course, brother.
13:57I didn't know him outside his work.
14:00He'd been here for over four months.
14:02Working as a porter?
14:04His life mattered.
14:05Well, I'm sorry, but I could tell you nothing more about him.
14:08Set it down here, Jerry.
14:23Where's Will?
14:24Isn't he usually here by now?
14:27What happened to that one?
14:29Don't ask.
14:32You should advertise for a housekeeper.
14:34I don't want a housekeeper in here telling me what to do.
14:37They wouldn't do that.
14:38Have you met Mrs. C?
14:40Anyway, I don't want to ask Jack for more money.
14:42I'm sure you wouldn't mind.
14:43Well, I would.
14:45Besides, did Jesus wash the feet of his disciples,
14:48or did he get someone else in to do it for him?
14:50Well, you're not Jesus.
14:51And you can't manage his place on your own, Leonard.
14:54Well, I didn't think I was on my own.
14:55Peter's room's at the top.
15:10This one over here.
15:11A small room?
15:23Standard for a porter.
15:25Peter never complained.
15:28A very good bloke.
15:30No trouble to anyone.
15:32Local?
15:32From Yorkshire.
15:34Sheffield, by all accounts.
15:35Came down here a few months ago to take the job.
15:38You liked working here?
15:39Very proud to be here.
15:41Took his responsibilities to the college seriously.
15:45You married?
15:46The college don't take on married men.
15:50Women bring nothing but trouble, if you ask me.
15:53Take today.
15:54Those three tarts are the root cause of all this misery.
15:58We're all better off single.
16:00It's a lonely existence, though.
16:01Well, I don't reckon I ever appeared to be too lonely.
16:06I love you and believe you love me.
16:08I beg you to meet me so that we can talk about things.
16:11Our baby is on its way and needs a father.
16:14You're Sheila.
16:16Not exactly single, then.
16:20Right, let's call it a day.
16:21Well, should we try to...
16:22It's getting late and...
16:24You need to get home.
16:39There you are.
16:41I thought Geordie was going to have you in there all day.
16:43Ah, things got a bit.
16:45Actually, I might just pop in the church.
16:47No!
16:48No, no you don't.
16:50You need to get inside.
16:52And eat something.
16:54You look starving.
16:56Do I?
16:57Yeah.
16:59Get in there.
17:01Sylvia and I have bought you something you're really going to like.
17:10Kathy, did you...
17:11Oh, sorry, you missed me then.
17:36Honestly, Mum's doing better.
17:37I'm fine to be here for a couple of days.
17:41What about you?
17:43Good.
17:44Charming.
17:46Only know you had lots of fun.
17:48You are still thinking about the accident, though.
17:53Because...
17:54That sort of thing...
17:56Mm-hmm.
17:56...is hard to...
17:58It's hard to put aside.
18:00And I know how you...
18:03Yeah.
18:11Here?
18:12Definitely.
18:14Just might have to do a bit of maneuvering.
18:16Huh?
18:16...is hard to talk to check.
18:24Are you all right?
18:25Come on.
18:26Let me see.
18:27Shh.
18:27Shh.
18:30Shh.
18:32Shh.
18:33Hey.
18:33Now, we're started off.
18:36Anything?
18:37No.
18:38Not today.
18:39You're all right, Rick?
18:40All right.
18:41Any other.
18:41All right.
18:42All right.
18:42All right.
18:43All right.
18:43All right.
18:43All right.
18:43All right.
18:44All right.
18:44All right.
18:45Come on.
18:57No.
18:59No.
19:10Does someone called Sheila live here?
19:12Yeah.
19:13That's me.
19:14Can I come in?
19:15Our landlady doesn't let us have gentleman callers.
19:17I think she'll make an exception for me.
19:38I would offer you a cup of tea, but milk got pinched.
19:43I just had a cup before I left.
19:50Did you write this?
19:56Well, obviously, I've read it. I'm not judging your situation.
19:59Why would you?
20:03Can I ask how long you've known Peter Delaney?
20:07Uh, married two years and we're caught in about six months before that.
20:13So you're Mrs. Delaney.
20:17I think you'd better sit down.
20:23I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but we found Peter's body this afternoon.
20:27Can I get someone to sit with you?
20:36I left all my family behind in Sheffield to come and live here.
20:39Uh, a neighbour maybe?
20:50Can I ask why Peter lied about being single?
20:52I needed a job.
20:55And he said they don't take married men.
20:59Yeah, of course.
21:01So you communicated by letter.
21:04Well, they don't let women into college, do they?
21:08Can you think of anyone who might want to harm Peter?
21:19No, I can't.
21:20Evening.
21:33Oh, I love you.
21:34I should hope so.
21:39Are you sure you're all right?
21:41I just made love to my beautiful wife. How could I not be?
21:46I've been thinking about you.
21:47Well, did I live up to expectations?
21:49I was worried.
21:50About me? Why?
21:52I know you blame yourself for what happened.
21:56So that's why you came back?
21:58What, to check up on me?
21:59When I hear my husband struggling, what am I going to do?
22:02Hear from who?
22:03Kath called me at my mum's.
22:06No, she said that you weren't yourself, that you're withdrawn.
22:09It's not just her. Everyone's concerned.
22:12Gossiping behind my back.
22:13Well, that's not fair. They're not gossiping.
22:15What would you call it, then?
22:16Talking.
22:17Have you ever heard of that?
22:19It's what normal people do.
22:20I talk.
22:21No, not about this you don't.
22:23This is the single most difficult thing that's ever happened to you.
22:25You do not know that.
22:26What, something worse than knocking a man down and killing him has happened to you?
22:30And all you can say is, I'm fine.
22:32I am not the victim here.
22:33No, but you're affected too.
22:36Still are.
22:38If you don't open up, then-
22:39Look, you will never understand, Bonnie, because we are very different people.
22:43I have faith and you don't.
22:45And it is my faith that has seen me through this.
23:18Look, I know you probably made a pact with the other girls not to speak to the police, but
23:27a man's been killed.
23:29You can't possibly think we have anything to do with that.
23:31Well, it's not easy to rule it out if you won't tell us anything.
23:34How about we start with your name and address?
23:41I do understand why you feel the way you do.
23:53I work in a police station, one of the few women here.
23:56What do you think that's like?
23:57So why do you do it?
23:59Because it's more important that there are women here, don't you think?
24:05Marianne Robertson, I'm at Newnham College reading maths.
24:10Then you're smart enough to realise that this had its place at the college protest, but
24:19in here, with just you and four walls, it's not really getting you anywhere, is it?
24:31Do you know anything at all about the death of the porter?
24:35I honestly don't.
24:37And what about the painting?
24:39Are you sure you didn't grab it as part of your stand?
24:41We have nothing against the painting.
24:44It's actually very beautiful.
24:48We just wanted to make our point.
24:53Sounds like you did just that.
25:02I am going to need the names of the other girls.
25:06And get them arrested?
25:06I can't do that.
25:08I can't do that.
25:19We are going to need the names of the other girls that we try to talk to.
25:32What do you do now?
25:33You might want a bit more lard in there.
25:58Otherwise, they stick to the pan,
26:00and it'll be the devil's own job to get it clean.
26:03A man's always happier for a cooked breakfast inside him.
26:08Will is definitely not happy.
26:10He found out why I came back, and he's
26:12furious with Cathy for calling me.
26:14What was she supposed to do?
26:16He hasn't been himself.
26:17Well, he doesn't see it that way.
26:19I would appreciate it if you stopped discussing me
26:21as if we were a child.
26:22We're just worried.
26:23You know, all of you whispering behind my back
26:25like some sort of committee, deciding that Bonnie needed
26:27to come back, and now you're still at it.
26:29Will.
26:29We noticed that you were struggling,
26:31and we just wanted to help.
26:32Yeah.
26:32Well, you haven't.
26:33You've made things worse.
26:34How?
26:35Bonnie's mum is very ill, and yet she's
26:37here checking up on me, which is the last thing that I wanted.
26:40When somebody you care about wants support,
26:43you'll do anything, even something they might not
26:45want you to do.
26:46That's how it is.
26:47Caring about someone doesn't mean doing
26:48whatever you want, and to hell with their feelings.
26:52Now please leave us in peace.
26:54Why did you say we were worried?
27:18Because we are.
27:19Well, you've made him even more annoyed now.
27:22Me?
27:23You said he was struggling.
27:24Because you said he needed support.
27:27That's completely different.
27:29When I said you needed to open up, I didn't think that meant screaming your head off.
27:39Oh, I wasn't.
27:40I'm just angry they called you back when it wasn't necessary.
27:45Yes, I think we all got the message on that score.
27:49I just wish people believed me when I say that I'm OK.
27:52Honestly, I want you to be OK.
27:55I want to think that someone or something can support you to a good place,
27:58and I'm not so big-headed that I think that has to be me.
28:04Let's just say I'm lucky to have you and God on my side.
28:15Was it worth it?
28:32Sometimes you've got to stand up for what's right.
28:37And you are absolutely certain no-one else knew about your plans?
28:40No.
28:41We kept it strictly among the three of us.
28:43No slips and all that.
28:46If the head of Newnham or Dr Abbott had even an inkling of what we were going to do,
28:50they would have thrown the book at us.
28:52They probably still will.
28:54I think Dr Abbott's a bit preoccupied at the minute.
28:58So the others won't get into any trouble?
29:01Well, at least you made the papers.
29:09Can I keep this?
29:10Not a chance.
29:11On your way.
29:12And let's hope I never see you or your friends again.
29:18So we've let our only suspect go?
29:22Because she had nothing to do with it, Larry.
29:25None of the girls did.
29:27So what now?
29:28We go back to the start.
29:30I'll come in by all means.
29:43How's Lady Godiva?
29:45Yeah, fully clothing on her way back to her mates.
29:48But I'm assuming this...
29:50Sandwiches.
29:51Cheese and pickle.
29:55You want to tell me what's up?
29:57Kids are driving me mad.
30:00Right.
30:01And...
30:03Mr Draper's called me into work.
30:07He said he wants a word.
30:11Well, that doesn't sound great.
30:13I'm worried he's going to sack me.
30:17He wouldn't do that.
30:21Would he?
30:23Well, he thinks I'm a troublemaker so I wouldn't put it past him.
30:29What will we do if he gives me my marching orders and you have to retire?
30:48Oh, good luck.
30:49Hello.
30:50Sorry, the door was open.
31:05I'm Martha.
31:07I'm here about the job.
31:09Oh, sorry, I think you must be at the wrong address.
31:11I've ten years in the hotel trade and good references.
31:15We're not a hotel.
31:16I know what this is.
31:17Everyone deserves the same standards, don't you think?
31:20We do think that, don't we, Leonard?
31:23Yes, but we still don't have an opening for a job, I'm afraid.
31:28There was an advert in the newsagent's window saying that you're looking for a housekeeper.
31:34I'm extremely sorry that you've wasted your time, but that was a mistake.
31:40We don't need anybody.
31:42You need carbolic for that.
31:44Salt for blood.
31:46Carbolic for everything else.
31:56You did this behind my back.
31:57I'm just being practical.
31:59I'm going for a walk before I say something I deeply regret.
32:03There you are.
32:16Thanks for coming.
32:18These colleges are an absolute nightmare.
32:20How do they manage to get so many snobs in one place?
32:23Oh, it's a miracle of science.
32:25Do they have lessons in that?
32:26Mondays and Wednesdays.
32:28I miss most of them.
32:30Probably chatting up the ladies, no doubt.
32:33I'm assuming a painting this famous wouldn't be easy to sell.
32:38Well, it's too famous to sell.
32:40Even on the black market.
32:42But there are unscrupulous private collectors, of course.
32:46So it could have been sold into order.
32:49How long did you say you've been writing about this series?
32:52Seven years.
32:54A hell of a long time to be obsessed.
32:57I wouldn't call myself that.
33:00No one loved that painting more than you.
33:04Are you serious?
33:06Maybe we should carry on this conversation back at the station.
33:09Do you have the authority of DCI Wallace to make this accusation?
33:13We're just following all lines of inquiry.
33:15I know him well.
33:17I'm happy to call him.
33:19I shouldn't bother.
33:20He's already called the Chancellor.
33:22I'll be back soon, Dr. Abbott.
33:27So what now?
33:34Let's pay the wife a visit.
33:42Oh, fucker.
33:47Don't knock.
33:49Guess what?
33:50You've won the pause?
33:52If I have, I'll buy the baby a new outfit.
33:54Oh, no.
33:55Forget about the tea.
33:56Let's have a sherry.
34:00To celebrate the fact that...
34:03I have had a promotion.
34:05That's brilliant.
34:06I know.
34:08I went in to see Mr Draper thinking I was going to get the job.
34:11But no.
34:12He offers me a promotion.
34:14I mean, he doesn't want to pay me as much as the bloke who does the exact same job as mine.
34:19But...
34:22I stood my ground.
34:24I probably...
34:25I probably shouldn't.
34:26Oh, rubbish.
34:27I had a few glasses when I was expecting all mine and look how they turned out.
34:31I hear Will's angry we got you back from your mums.
34:41I bumped into Mrs C at the post office.
34:44He says he's over.
34:45What happened?
34:46Says his faith got him through.
34:48And does his faith stop him from talking about any of it?
34:51I'm scared, Cathy.
34:53What if he doesn't get back to how he was?
34:55He will.
34:57It just takes time.
34:59How long?
35:00Only took Geordie 20 years to get over the war.
35:04Oh, I'm dreading telling him about my new job.
35:09Why?
35:10Be proud, won't he?
35:11God knows how he'll react.
35:15Don't breathe a word.
35:17But Elliot said Geordie needs to think about retirement.
35:20But that thought took about two minutes.
35:22Two?
35:25Bloody men.
35:26Oh, bloody men.
35:30Let's have a chat, Sheila.
35:43What sort of man was your husband?
35:46Pretty ordinary answer.
35:48What did Peter tell you about the job in college?
35:51Did he explain that he'd need to pretend to be single before he took it?
35:54That you'd need to live here?
35:56He left that bit out till he got down here.
36:00Told me he'd got a good job.
36:02Good wages and that.
36:03And they'd send for me when he was settled.
36:07But that never happened.
36:11When did you last see him?
36:15Sheila, it's always better if you explain things yourself.
36:17The day he died, I saw him that afternoon at the college.
36:30You were there?
36:32My friend Josephine's a better and she told me there was going to be some do on at the college with a painting.
36:38Well, everyone would be busy and I could easily sneak in and talk to Peter.
36:43And what did Peter say when you did that?
36:45He said that the marriage was over and I should go back to Sheffield.
36:51Even though you were pregnant?
36:52He doesn't care about me or the baby.
36:54He just chopped me out.
36:56That must have made you angry.
36:58Obviously.
36:59Angry enough to kill him?
37:00Probably.
37:02But I didn't.
37:05He was still alive when I left.
37:07Are you sure about that?
37:08If you don't believe me, you can ask Josephine because she saw me go.
37:13I met her a few months ago.
37:15Outside the college.
37:16She was upset so we started talking.
37:18Been friends ever since.
37:20And how well did you know Peter?
37:22He mostly ignored me.
37:23All the porters do.
37:25He mostly ignored Sheila too, didn't he?
37:27Us men for you.
37:28You told Sheila her to get into the college.
37:31So she could confront Peter?
37:33She wanted to talk to him.
37:35Make him see sense.
37:37A woman in her situation, what chance has she got on her own?
37:41You've no idea how desperate she's been feeling, how could you?
37:45And when he refused to talk to her, how did she react?
37:51She was broken.
37:53So then what happened?
37:58Well, she didn't kill him if that's what you think.
38:02You certain of that?
38:03Yes.
38:05Look, I saw her talking to him.
38:07Sobbing, she was.
38:09Begging him.
38:10Then she left.
38:11Was that before or after the protest?
38:14Definitely before.
38:15Sheila had already left when that performance happened.
38:19And Peter was still alive.
38:20Is this what all the fuss is about?
38:39You think no one had ever seen a naked body?
38:40Well, this particular naked body is giving us some real grief.
38:44I still think Dr. Abba had a motive to take it.
38:47But do we really think he had the bottle to kill someone?
38:50If he was scared of getting caught?
38:52Who else had access to the room?
38:55The porters.
38:57They were outside chasing our protesters.
38:59What about the wife?
39:00She had every reason to want her husband dead.
39:13I think she loved him though.
39:16Well, love will only get you so far.
39:18As an abandoned woman with a child, her life's pretty much ruined.
39:24But as a woman whose husband died tragically,
39:28that's another kettle of fish.
39:31She could start again.
39:34So she kills it.
39:36Takes the picture.
39:38To make it look like theft?
39:41But what would she do with it afterwards?
39:43There's no way she could find a buyer.
39:48Why are you doing this?
40:03What's all this?
40:04It's for my work.
40:05I'm a seamstress.
40:06How else do you think I managed not to starve?
40:12Oi!
40:13Do you know how much that costs?
40:18Geordie?
40:20Hmm?
40:21Geordie?
40:22Hmm?
40:48Why would this be in your bin?
41:00No idea how it got in there.
41:02Well, you stole it, Sheila.
41:04After you killed your husband.
41:06You can believe that.
41:08Absolutely no one else had any reason to want him dead.
41:10I didn't want him dead.
41:12He's the father of my baby.
41:14A baby he didn't care about.
41:15This isn't right.
41:18I thought the robbers killed him.
41:20There were no robbers.
41:22Unless you're saying they went to all that trouble
41:23and then left the loot in your bin.
41:26Someone slung it in there.
41:28Hmm?
41:29Like who?
41:30I wouldn't put it past you lot.
41:32Sheila, he was a bad man.
41:34A terrible husband.
41:36Everyone will understand why you killed him.
41:38Why it happened.
41:40Except nothing did.
41:42I talked to him.
41:44And then I left.
41:46You will go to prison for this, Sheila.
41:51But Peter was alive when I saw him.
41:53Ask Josephine.
41:54Ask Josephine.
42:11Can we not do this?
42:13I have too much work to do for chit chat.
42:15Important work. God's work.
42:17You're peeling potatoes.
42:18Exactly.
42:25I know you think that all this is just a fad.
42:28But I'll move on.
42:29I don't.
42:30You think I'm wishy-washy.
42:32Always changing my mind.
42:33I know this is different.
42:36It's the best thing I've ever done.
42:38Which is why you need some proper help.
42:41So that you can make this place the finest it can be.
42:45I know that's what you want.
42:50You shouldn't have gone behind my back though.
42:52Agreed.
42:54I'm sorry.
42:56I overstepped the mark.
43:05What was the name of that lady again?
43:07Martha.
43:09Let's just hope she hasn't already taken a job in some five-star hotel.
43:23I don't know why you dragged me here when I told you I only got Sheila into college.
43:27We just need to check a few things.
43:29Like what?
43:31Like when Sheila left the college.
43:33She tried to have words with Peter.
43:36He chucked her out.
43:37She went home.
43:39It's only natural you'd want to help a friend.
43:41Especially when the stakes are so high.
43:43Of course it's natural.
43:45You don't want to see the people you care about suffer, do you?
43:48But that doesn't change the fact I saw her leave college.
43:51And Peter was still alive.
44:03If it turns out you're lying, it won't just be Sheila going to prison.
44:08Well I'm not lying am I?
44:11It would be better for Sheila if you both just tell the truth.
44:14Her barrister can explain to the court.
44:16And they will understand why she did this.
44:19A bunch of strangers making decisions for her.
44:22When they don't even know the full story.
44:23She's lying to protect her friend.
44:33She's right though.
44:35The bubble will happen.
44:37Everyone's making decisions for Sheila.
44:40It's a horrible feeling.
44:43When you're invisible.
44:44I'll drive you to do something unthinkable.
44:57When someone you care about needs support, you'll do anything.
45:02Even if it's something they might not want you to do.
45:04Recently, a group of friends thought they knew what was best for me.
45:17And I didn't like it.
45:19Not one bit.
45:21And that's what you hate, isn't it?
45:24The fact that no one listens to women like you and Sheila.
45:28Did you kill Peter, Josephine?
45:30Were you so angry at how he treated your friend that you lost your temper?
45:37And you did something that even Sheila didn't want you to do?
45:42Because if that's what happened, you cannot let Sheila go to prison.
45:48She won't go to prison because I'm confirming her story.
45:51She let...
45:52No, she will go to prison.
45:54Seeing as no one will believe you.
45:56Because I'm just a poor woman who cleans things.
45:58Because we found a painting in Sheila's bin.
46:03You can't let her take the blame.
46:08Think of the baby, Josephine.
46:15Peter was happy to destroy Sheila's life without so much as a thought.
46:20I mean, husband and wife are meant to be there for each other, aren't they?
46:24Through thick and thin.
46:25Through thick and thin.
46:28All he cared about was his job at the bloody college.
46:32Thinking it made him someone.
46:34Thinking he was part of it all.
46:38You think that lot care about the porters?
46:41Josephine.
46:43Did you kill him?
46:44Someone's gotta be the strong one.
46:50And if the man's not gonna be...
46:54You saw how Sheila reacted to her husband's treatment.
46:58You saw how Sheila reacted to her husband's treatment.
47:02So you went to confront Peter.
47:05To stand up for your friend the way she couldn't.
47:08Hey.
47:09I wanna work with you.
47:11Go scrub your floors, you stupid cow.
47:13Go on!
47:15And then you saw he couldn't care less.
47:17About Sheila.
47:19About any woman.
47:20You had a key to Dr. Abbott's office.
47:29How else would I clean it?
47:32So you let yourself in, you stole the painting, to make it look like a robbery.
47:38What were you going to do with it?
47:43I don't know.
47:45Try and sell it.
47:47Buy Sheila some baby things.
47:54I still had it on me when I left college and I...
47:57Went around to Sheila's to see if she was alright.
48:00And I saw you.
48:02So I shoved it in the bins.
48:04Not a brilliant plan all told.
48:08I'm just so...
48:12Tired.
48:37Go now.
48:39To be there.
48:43I know.
48:47But...
48:48Do you have a good day?
48:50Please take a step.
48:54I'm gonna get a step again.
48:55To be able to find a new character.
48:59Bye.
49:01Bye.
49:02You cared more about this painting than a dead man.
49:32You know, if you've mentioned Abedda had access to this room...
49:35Thank God there's no damage.
49:37We could have sorted all this out much earlier if you told us she'd had a key and given us
49:43her name.
49:44And how am I supposed to remember the name of Abedda?
49:48What about those students who took their clothes off?
49:50I assume you charged her with wasting police time?
49:52No, I have not.
49:54But you are this close to getting Nick for it yourself.
50:02It smells good.
50:21You're packed.
50:22I can stay a few more days.
50:24You don't need to.
50:25You sure?
50:26Yeah.
50:27It would be good to have the house to myself before the baby comes.
50:30I'll enjoy the peace when I can.
50:32You enjoyed having Ernie though?
50:34Of course I did.
50:35But he wants to see his granny.
50:36And she's ill so it's perfectly understandable.
50:38And I will see you both for his birthday.
50:41We'll have a big party.
50:43Balloons, cakes, the whole works.
50:44He will love it.
50:45Now, listen to the man in the house and eat up.
50:52Oh, this looks good.
50:55Don't worry, Ernie.
50:56Come on, we'll be back before you know it.
50:58I love you both.
51:11You're going to write me a letter every day.
51:13Okay?
51:14In fact, write me two a day.
51:17In you get.
51:19Right.
51:20We'll miss you.
51:21All right.
51:22We'll miss you.
51:50Let's go, Dernie.
51:51Let's go.
51:52Let's go.
51:53Let's go, Dernie.
51:54Let's go, Dernie.
51:55Here's all the adventures!
51:57Woo!
51:58Good.
52:03Here's all the adventures!
52:08Yes.
52:09Yes, yes.
52:10It's just a game.
52:11That's all Deliver!
52:12A new adventure!
52:13I love you.
52:14I love you, Dernie.
52:15I love you, Dernie.
52:16I love you, Dernie.
52:17I love you, Ernie.
52:18It's just a game.
52:19Let's all just calm down.
52:21You're welcome here!
52:23This is what happens when you put rats in the hamster cage.
52:27Don't talk to me about support.
52:29He came to me for help. I failed him.
