00:00Oh, shit.

00:30Oh, shit.

00:34Oh, shit.

00:38Oh, shit.

00:42Oh, shit.

00:46Oh, shit.

00:56Oh, shit.

01:02Hey, Northy.

01:04Did you bring a steak?

01:06It's off.

01:08Silly bastards.

01:10What are we waiting for?

01:20Dawn.

01:22That's only tradition.

01:24Well, then, we'll have half of Cambridge out to watch the show.

01:26Thank you, Dr. Ryan, but tradition has its place.

01:30Well, I suppose we'd better make a start, then.

01:33But the coffin stays put till first light.

01:39Hold it.

01:46They're from the village.

01:58We'll be back.

02:10We'll be back.

02:14The murderer got the coffee.

02:25Gary, are you there?

02:28Gary!

02:29Gary, get the door.

02:31Get the door.

02:36They're in the cemetery.

02:37Who?

02:38The police.

02:39What is happening, Gary?

02:41Well, how should I know?

02:44Get out of there, the lawyer!

02:56Go on!

02:57Get out!

03:03Hello, Coleman.

03:04Ma'am, look, you better get over there and keep them calm.

03:09Constable?

03:11Yes, ma'am.

03:14What is it?

03:20An exhumation.

03:21What?

03:22Who are they digging up?

03:24That little girl that got murdered.

03:25What, Kim Wallace?

03:26It has to be, hasn't it?

03:29Leave her alone, you bastards.

03:31Hey.

03:32What right have you got to do this?

03:33It's a disgrace.

03:34Come on, son.

03:36Leave her alone!

03:36All right, calm down.

03:38Coleman, I'm going to need help now.

03:39Were they like this when she was on trial?

03:42Doesn't the murder of a child outrage you?

03:45Yes, but I want justice, not a witch hunt.

03:55I don't know how you can stand there and hold your head up, Peter Coleman.

03:59I don't like this any more than you do, Mrs Phillips.

04:01So, beyond all this, isn't it?

04:03That Wallace bitch.

04:09We've got the kit, Anthony.

04:29Let's get this out of here.

04:38There is an atmosphere of discontent here at Fenreach.

04:41And this controversial exhumation is just one more blow to this little Fennellon community,

04:46where the wounds of the past have been so slow to heal.

04:48They're on the move.

04:48All right, let's get this out of here.

04:59Oh, great. I'm going to need a lift to the mortuary.

05:25Can someone stay with it till it's sorted?

05:27You know, there's something left at all, wait.

05:29Any tea?

05:42Yes, in the pot.

05:45Pour it, then.

05:50Ronnie?

05:52You all right?

05:53I should have seen her when I had the chance.

05:56Say no.

05:56Oh, Sarah.

06:01It's like she's not really gone.

06:05She died and I didn't feel it.

06:08I don't understand why.

06:11She just walked out that door.

06:15We don't even know what happened.

06:16Larry?

06:22Larry?

06:23What?

06:27Nothing.

06:30All right.

06:32Say it.

06:34If you're thinking it.

06:35Fred?

06:44Fred?

06:44What?

06:51Externally, we have extensive conversion of the body to adipose here, which predominates

06:57considerable putrefaction, as might be expected after three years in wet, peat-y soil.

07:05The torso is brittle to the touch.

07:10I don't know if I've noticed that one before.

07:12Dr. Matthews is a very experienced pathologist.

07:16Experience is wasted on some people.

07:18The gross physical marks of the original autopsy remain externally visible.

07:23A dead body isn't a person. It's a puzzle.

07:26A story.

07:28Beginning, middle and an end.

07:30There's an area of mummification in the head.

07:32There's not a lot of middle in this one.

07:34The three post-mortem processes coexisting in the same body.

08:04He doesn't love me.

08:11Can I have it back?

08:14What do you know about that?

08:16Please.

08:18You haven't told him, have you?

08:23No.

08:24I was supposed to say he loves you.

08:27He did, I thought.

08:30He screwed you.

08:32It's like what? Everybody did.

08:34He needed me.

08:35Nobody ever needed me like that.

08:39Except the baby.

08:41When you're in bed, the old is so close.

08:46Like, so tight, it's like he can't stand to let go, not even for a minute.

08:52Then Kim would start crying.

08:54And that sound, it was like it hurt him.

08:57He was...

08:59You know, don't you?

09:02I used to say that I used to think it was his age.

09:05I used to say it was his age.

09:06His cow of a mother, his dad.

09:08Even when he was bad, I thought that a part of him still loved me.

09:14Until I saw him on the telly with his arm around you talking about your little girl.

09:18You'd say anything to get out of here.

09:20Any lie.

09:22He'd even let them dig up your little daughter.

09:25What?

09:26You're not ill.

09:27Or sick.

09:28You're bloody evil.

09:30You might fool the do-gooders, but you don't fool me.

09:38You killed that baby.

09:40And digging her up ain't gonna prove no different.

10:00What are you doing here?

10:02Get in.

10:03Get in.

10:04The mood was extremely angry here outside the cemetery at Fenreach, where the exhumation

10:28of Kim Wallace took place in the early hours of this morning, under the supervision of

10:31the pathologist, Dr. Samantha Ryan.

10:33Sam, why are you in the telly?

10:36It's just to do with my job, Mummy.

10:39What are you looking for, Daddy?

10:45You won't find him, you know.

10:46Can we talk about something else, please?

10:53There wasn't even six bits of Daddy.

10:57Not six bits for six counties.

11:00Mummy!

11:14Don't start.

11:15I've had a very bad day.

11:17Me too.

11:18Mine wasn't on the telly.

11:20All right, just tell me what I'm supposed to do.

11:22It's Ricky.

11:23What about him?

11:25He thinks the sun shines out of your arse.

11:26Would you just take him for a wee while?

11:32Please.

11:33Please.

11:35Want to?

11:38I'll do it.

11:39Don't you?

11:42You're welcome.

11:44Come on.

11:46It can.

11:47Ruth has been great.

11:49I want to ask your mamings, every time you do here.

11:50You're welcome.

11:51I want to ask for a really good idea.

11:52Let's takeATHAN.

11:53Come on.

11:54Take father from Mars.

11:54He will say it.

11:59I want to ask.

12:00The original tox results showed very high levels of diisepam in the tissues.

12:14Poisoning with tranquilizers was almost certainly the cause of death.

12:17Oh.

12:19The rest of the PM, however, looks entirely different.

12:22Multiple fractures to the ribs.

12:23Overlooked?

12:24Just like Sarah Crewe, except in this case we also have a fractured ankle.

12:28The same man's involved with both women and similar damage is done to their children.

12:33Coincidence?

12:34A policeman who believes in coincidence?

12:36Well, Marion could still have done it.

12:38Oh, come on.

12:39Well, we need to eliminate the possibility.

12:41We're going to have to interview her.

12:43But there's a problem.

12:44She won't talk to us.

12:46She wants to talk to you.

12:48There'll have to be a police presence, of course.

12:57Who's she?

13:06DC Cox.

13:07I want to talk to you alone.

13:08They won't allow it.

13:11What you did to my baby.

13:14Digging her up, you had no right.

13:15I had no choice.

13:17You didn't listen.

13:18I told you.

13:18You didn't tell me about the ankle, Marion.

13:21What?

13:23I told you on the phone it was all me.

13:24You didn't know about the ankle, did you?

13:26Yeah.

13:27So how did you do it?

13:28Did you pick her up and shake her?

13:30Did you drop her?

13:32Did you throw her against the wall?

13:34Which ankle was it, Marion?

13:36Look at me!

13:37What's going on here?

13:38I'm on official business.

13:39Are you going to do anything about this?

13:40Why are you protecting him?

13:42Dr. Ryan.

13:43I need to do this.

13:45Dr. Ryan.

13:45What kind of woman are you?

13:47He killed your baby and you let him get away with it.

13:50I won't talk to you.

13:52Are you going to let him get away with it again?

13:54Is this police...

13:55Stop him.

13:55Is this Dr. Ryan?

13:56For your baby's sake.

13:58My baby's dead.

14:00My baby's dead.

14:02My baby's dead.

14:03My baby's dead.

14:05My baby's dead.

14:07I'm terminating this interview now.

14:09You'll do it again.

14:09Dr. Ryan.

14:10Oh, you understand.

14:12What can he do to you in here?

14:13Please stop this.

14:15You don't know.

14:17Dr. Ryan.

14:18I told you to leave it alone.

14:19I would prefer you to leave of your own accord, but if you don't, I'm quite prepared to have

14:22you removed by force.

14:24You're a bitch.

14:33Who do you think you are?

14:35Don't shout at me.

14:37Twice.

14:38Twice!

14:39Just like the inquest!

14:40I had to stop the inquest.

14:42You'd stop the investigation.

14:43Why didn't you tell us Marion had changed her mind?

14:46Dr. Ryan doesn't believe she can trust us.

14:48Well, why should we trust her ever again?

14:51You're not the only forensic pathologist in Cambridge.

14:54No, you'd rather have someone you can use.

14:56Someone like Matthews.

14:57I'd rather have someone rational!

15:00Rational?

15:00Tom.

15:01You see, Dr. Ryan is on a crusade.

15:06The less proof she has, the more certain she gets.

15:10There is still, still no connection established between the abuse and the cause of death.

15:17Oh, you're right.

15:18But there is one.

15:20That man's anger is buried in those children's bodies.

15:22I can feel it.

15:24And Marion's still protecting him.

15:26I just don't understand why these women keep going back.

15:28No, I've talked to her.

15:30It's not Gary she's protecting.

15:34No, you're right.

15:37It's not Gary.

15:44Michael Wallace.

15:45Age 12 years.

15:47In care.

15:48Foster home.

15:50Millen's school.

15:53You watch telly in bed?

15:58Yes, I do.

15:59And this is private.

16:01Out.

16:02Can't watch that one downstairs.

16:04Hurts me eyes.

16:05How's the homework situation?

16:07It's cool.

16:09Is it done?

16:11I've got your mother to answer to.

16:13It's done.

16:13It's wonderful.

16:15Get the door.

16:16Get the door.

16:18Is that Trevor?

16:25Uh, Dr. Ryan.

16:26Who are you?

16:27It's all right, Ricky.

16:28Make yourself at home.

16:29I'll see you later.

16:33You were right, you know.

16:35Michael did visit Marion in the prison immediately before the exhumation.

16:39Which was just before she found me.

16:41Yeah.

16:42Usually visits her once a month with a social worker.

16:44But this time, he was on his own.

16:46Phillips really knows how to get to her, doesn't he?

16:48Yeah.

16:49Are you going to pull him?

16:50I don't know.

16:51Maybe.

16:55Who's the kid?

16:57My bodyguard.

17:03Let's go.

17:05I'll come back by cab.

17:06That's all right.

17:06All right.

17:08Where is he?

17:34You dug up any more kids today, Adams?

17:36Just tell him I want a word.

17:40Did you get that?

17:42Did you hear that?

17:44I heard.

17:45You hear this.

17:47That Wallace Hall lived in our village?

17:49We know her.

17:50You know Gary as well.

17:52I don't suppose you'd happen to know where he is.

17:57I'm going to go and powder my nose.

17:58Any of you boys like to join me?

18:05That bitch should have been hanged in the first place.

18:10But you is totty.

18:12I can't help wondering.

18:29I can't help wondering.

18:34Two kids dead.

18:35What sort of a person is this?

18:44Is this a man?

18:47No.

18:50This is not a man.

18:52I was there at the autopsies.

18:56I saw the shattered little bodies.

19:00The broken bones.

19:03Now what do you think someone like me would do to someone like that?

19:08Well, I know what I'm going to do.

19:11I'm going to lock him up.

19:13Together with the rapists.

19:15And the child molesters.

19:17And all the other pathetic little perverts.

19:20First, I'm going to nail his dick to the floor.

19:32You take care now.

19:42You little prick.

19:43Leave me alone.

19:44You mouthy little prick.

19:46You told him, didn't you?

19:47Leave me alone.

19:47You told him where I was.

19:48No.

19:48Then look.

19:49Anybody knows you'd go there.

19:50Anybody could have told him.

19:51But you told him, didn't you?

19:55You little shit.

19:57Oh, you little shit.

19:58You�

20:01You, you

20:50I'm sorry, mate. You know what I'm like.

21:00It's all right.

21:05Look, I'll buy you another one in the morning. Better. A really good one.

21:20They don't want to blame me. They're trying to blame me. It's not fair.

21:29I'm sorry, mate.

21:59He's also away from retaining his light-heavy body, the 81-kilogram division.

22:05Totally contrasting styles.

22:08Branch, using that long left hand of his over, stepping inside and doing something.

22:13It's a study-building work.

22:14It's a study-building work.

22:16It's a study-building work.

22:18It's a study-building work.

22:20It's a study-building work.

22:22It's a study-building work.

22:24It's a study-building work.

22:26It's a study-building work.

22:28It's a study-building work.

22:30It's a study-building work.

22:32It's a study-building work.

22:34It's a study-building work.

27:38It's my fault, I'm afraid.

27:40I tried to wind him up.

27:42Phillips?

27:43Yeah.

27:44You succeeded?

27:45It's like somebody feels pretty strongly about something.

27:51And so do I.

27:52You know where Phillips lives?

27:56Yeah.

27:57I was scared.

28:08I was scared.

28:09I was scared.

28:10I can imagine.

28:12I can imagine.

28:25I can imagine.

28:26I can imagine.

28:27Your mum saw.

28:40You know what?

28:41I mean, you're married.

28:42I know.

28:42You're not sure.

28:43You're not sure.

28:44You're made from strong stuff, Ricky Ryan.

28:50The kitchen was my fault.

28:53You're made from strong stuff, Ricky Ryan.

29:04Thanks, Fred.

29:05Boss.

29:08How long have you got?

29:09We have to have him in court by 11.

29:12So, he smothered her and then threw her in the water.

29:16But we can't prove it, right?

29:18The rope burns.

29:19From the swing.

29:21She was too small.

29:22She could only hold the end of the rope, so how did she get them?

29:25She must have been holding on higher up.

29:29Someone must have helped her.

29:38He didn't smother her, did he?

29:41No.

29:42It was worse than that.

29:44She drowned and he watched.

29:46Are they using the sweet wrappers?

29:53Yep.

29:54We found these at the scene.

29:55They'd only been there a few hours.

29:56This is the analysis of the stomach contents.

30:04This is the residue from the wrappers.

30:06She was eating sweets.

30:08And we lifted his fingerprint from the beer can.

30:11Sixteen points of similarity.

30:12I've got him.

30:13For the break-in.

30:14I'm only interested in Kim and Sarah.

30:18We have evidence placing you inside Dr. Ryan's house.

30:22In the bedroom.

30:23Did you remove Dr. Ryan's underclothes from the dressing table and burn holes in them?

30:28Um, Gary, was that you?

30:44The sweet peppers at the scene match the sweets in her stomach.

30:47He gave them to her.

30:49Can you prove it?

30:50No.

30:50If we can't put him at the riverbank when the child died, we've got nothing.

31:00I'd like to turn to a possible motive for this attack.

31:04Dr. Ryan is a forensic pathologist who is investigating the deaths of two children.

31:09First, Kim Wallace, the daughter of Marion Wallace.

31:15Did you know Kim?

31:16The baby she killed.

31:17Did you touch the baby?

31:22Never.

31:23Or even when you were in bed with Marion?

31:25No.

31:26Babies cry.

31:28Kim cried all the time.

31:31Marion must have had to get up to leave you.

31:33I've said...

31:33Babies, they cry.

31:37It seems like it's never going to stop.

31:38It really gets to the mother.

31:40Did it get to you?

31:40No.

31:41Did it make you feel jealous?

31:42My client has answered your question.

31:44Angry?

31:44No.

31:45Please don't browbeat my client.

31:46Kim and Sarah.

31:49The same injuries.

31:52The same anger.

31:54The same person grasped these children in his hands and crushed their ribs.

32:03What?

32:04And then they died.

32:07You have admitted to knowing both mothers.

32:10You must have known both children.

32:11My client wishes to say that he's under a great deal of stress as a result of the death of his friend's daughter.

32:27Yes?

32:28He feels unable to answer any questions at this time.

32:33I can imagine.

32:33Now I'd like to turn to the death of Sarah Crewe.

32:40I'd like to put something to you, Gary.

32:43I'm saying nothing.

32:44Then listen.

32:45We believe that someone intercepted Sarah on the way to school.

32:49Someone who knew the way she would go.

32:51We believe that person led Sarah through the woods and across the fields and down to the river.

32:57Do I have to listen to this?

33:00Just a little longer.

33:02He probably knew that although she fell from the swing at the picnic, it was one of the few places where she felt happy.

33:09Then he helped her up onto the swing, setting her feet on either side of the rope on the knot and getting her to hold on tight.

33:18Maybe he planned what happened next.

33:22What do you think?

33:25Maybe not.

33:27Maybe he just let go.

33:30Swung her out over the deeper water.

33:33Then harder and harder.

33:35Again and again.

33:37So violently that she couldn't hold on and lost her footing on the knot.

33:42And slipped down the rope.

33:44Her hands burning.

33:46She cried out.

33:47And then she fell in.

33:49And as we know, she couldn't swim.

33:53So he must have stood and watched.

33:56The good part urging him into the water.

33:58The angry part holding him back.

34:02Three times, don't you see?

34:05Was she badly afraid?

34:06My client has nothing to say.

34:08How many times did you push her before she fell?

34:09My client has nothing further to say.

34:13You've had your time, Inspector.

34:15Charge my client or release him.

34:17Detective Inspector Adams is leaving the room.

34:21The time is 10.53.

34:23We are interrupting the interview.

34:32If we could just get him away from that prat.

34:36What happens now?

34:38Court.

34:38He gets bail.

34:40We'll make it a condition that he stays away from you.

34:42It's not me I'm worried about.

34:43It's not me I'm worried about.

34:45I need to talk to you, Ronnie.

35:09I'll stay here all day if I have to.

35:21It won't go away.

35:23You have to face up to the truth.

35:25The morning she died.

35:30You sent her off to school alone.

35:34You didn't give her any breakfast.

35:38Ronnie!

35:38You sent her off to school with a bag of sweets.

35:58Somebody bought her sweets.

36:00Did she have any money?

36:03Ronnie.

36:08Were these her favourites?

36:12Do.

36:15Oh.

36:18Who would know that?

36:24Who would know that, Ronnie?

36:25Ronnie.

36:26Ronnie.

36:26I'm so tired.

36:56Can I help you?

37:10Excuse me, can I help you?

37:12Are you looking for someone?

37:20Julie, off you go, hurry up.

37:22Julie!

37:24Visitors are supposed to report to the office.

37:27Scary, isn't it?

37:34Oi, Dean!

37:42Michael Wallace, where's Michael Wallace?

37:44Get the police now.

37:46Dean?

37:48Now put the telephone down.

37:52Dean!

37:53Piss off!

37:54Adams, Inspector Adams.

37:56Don't you speak to me like that!

37:58Who are you talking to?

38:01Hello?

38:02She wouldn't have gone with him.

38:04He gave her sweets.

38:07Had he ever done that before?

38:08No.

38:10Then he took her to the riverbank.

38:13No, she wouldn't have gone with him.

38:15Why not?

38:15She was too frightened.

38:19I know what he did to her when she was younger.

38:23The violence.

38:25He's young, he's got a temper.

38:28Children want to be loved.

38:31She'd have gone with him.

38:32He killed her, Ronnie.

38:37And he'll kill again.

38:38No, Gary.

38:59No, I didn't say anything.

39:01I never have.

39:01This is all your fault!

39:12I said nothing!

39:14Yes, you did!

39:16You know what I want to do to me!

39:17You know what I want to take, man!

39:19Angel, help!

39:22No!

39:23No!

39:24No!

39:25No!

39:27No!

39:28No!

39:29Stop it!

39:29No!

39:30No!

39:30Gary, leave him alone!

39:40Gary, leave him alone!

39:44Gary!

39:46Look at him.

39:48That's yours, that is.

39:50Piss bag.

39:52That long string of useless piss.

39:54Ah!

39:55Ah!

39:55Oh!

40:16Yeah!

40:17Oh, get an ambulance. Quickly. Call an ambulance. I can't leave this.

40:42Come on, let go, Dean.

40:47You won't hurt as any part in the room.

40:55Come on.

40:58Where are you taking me?

41:10We lost him. Did we?

41:13I don't call that losing him. I should have got the bastard three years ago.

41:18I meant the boy.

41:19Okay.

41:20Okay.

41:21Okay.

41:22Okay.

41:24Okay.

41:25Okay.

41:29Okay.

41:30Okay.

41:31Okay.
