00:00I'll get them coming in. You go around the back and get some photos of the church as per the mood board.
00:21They'll be ready by the main doors.
00:24Mood board, Hilary?
00:26The real deal is light, I tell you now.
00:27Leave it alone, Hilary.
00:31Sorry, sorry, could you get some shots of me from the other side? It's just my nose looks a bit snouty from the right.
00:39Do you feel all right, love?
00:40Yeah, could say. Why wouldn't it be?
00:42I know, last minute jitters.
00:43You like, Darren?
00:44Yeah, I do. It's just a bit uptight, didn't you?
00:46What?
00:47Oh, lovely lad, cracking boy. Wagon with the family, one of us now.
00:52Dad!
00:53What?
00:54Your battery's dead, for God's sake, Ashley.
00:56No, body.
00:57Dad, there's a dead body.
01:04And my battery's dead.
01:05Always feels more of a waste when they're this young and fit.
01:27Is that inappropriate?
01:29Very.
01:29No.
01:29Well, this must be where all the local teenagers come to drink.
01:34Swell posh.
01:35It's a bottle of Pinot Noir there.
01:37Whatever happens to strong cider and spewing?
01:39Yeah, it's today.
01:41They can't even get hammered properly.
01:42Sorry I'm late.
01:43I've been with the chief super I have.
01:45She called me in to praise me.
01:46Praise?
01:47You?
01:47Yeah, she's impressed by our recent clearance race.
01:50She thinks I'm rubbing off on you.
01:52Well, it's pretty much all me.
01:53Well, police work's a team game, Malawan.
01:55You might put them in the back of the net, but I'm there in the dugout.
01:58Picking the team.
01:59Choosing a formation.
02:02Anyway, I thought I'd come and help you out.
02:03What have we got?
02:05We have got Gethin Benyon, best man, ran a digital marketing company with the groom
02:10called Alto Ignite Digital Marketing.
02:13Apparently they're brand building disruptors.
02:17Well, I want to kill her myself.
02:20Time of death?
02:21Body temperature suggests either late last night or early hours of the morning.
02:24You were staying in the rental cottage over there with the groom's party.
02:28That's the groom, Aaron James, and his brother, Nathan.
02:32Right.
02:32Calls are there?
02:34He might have been involved in a struggle.
02:36Could have fallen or was pushed.
02:38He certainly hit his head on a gravestone.
02:40Bam.
02:41What was he doing in the church yet?
02:42Not sure.
02:43No CCTV from the church, but I've got Chowdhury asking round to see if anyone else caught something.
02:48But one of the glass panels on the church's side door was smashed.
02:52Ah.
02:53So, we're thinking he saw someone trying to break in from next door.
02:57A have-a-go hero.
02:58I don't know.
03:00This is hardly a crime hotspot.
03:01Something's off.
03:03It's like, you know when you're watching Married at First Sight and they're like,
03:06I'm ready for commitment.
03:08And you're like, no, you're not ready for commitment.
03:11What?
03:12It just looks staged.
03:13Obvious.
03:15Is this going to take much longer?
03:16Just a few more questions.
03:18I need to speak to the church.
03:19See if they can rearrange for later in the week.
03:21Get your speech out of my face, Nathan.
03:24Rearrange?
03:24You're not going to cancel?
03:26Why do people keep asking that?
03:28It won't make a difference if we wait a week or a year.
03:31My best man's still not going to be here.
03:33At least this way it feels like Gethin's still involved.
03:35You know, he really contributed a lot to the project.
03:37You call your wedding a project?
03:39This isn't just an ordinary wedding.
03:42It's a digital marketing super event.
03:44They had clients from everywhere coming.
03:46Cardiff, London, Lincoln.
03:48LinkedIn.
03:49Would I know someone from Lincoln?
03:51Didn't your fiancé mind her wedding being turned into a digital thingy thing thing thing?
03:58No.
03:59Sean Ed's invited potential clients too.
04:01Yeah, she runs a local gallery.
04:02It's great.
04:03It means we could write off most of Costa's business expenses.
04:06Wow.
04:06What every girl dreams of.
04:09Is there anything else we should know about Gethin?
04:12How did he see him yesterday?
04:14It was a bit weird.
04:16We were meant to have a meal in the pub, but he didn't show.
04:18Spent most of the day in his room.
04:19Interesting.
04:20Oh.
04:21My notebook's full.
04:22Let me just...
04:24It's okay.
04:25It's okay.
04:27Yeah.
04:28What's that?
04:30Room.
04:31All day.
04:33Got it.
04:34Um, did you see him last night?
04:36No.
04:37I was in my room one night.
04:39I heard him, though.
04:40Yeah, it was, uh, half twelve.
04:42He woke me up running the taps in his bathroom.
04:47Well, thank you for your time.
04:49And do you happen to know if there's a WH Smiths in the area?
04:53It's just, you know, not ideal.
05:00Alan, you've hardly touched your breakfast.
05:08Who's a high-end marinated salmon flakes, mate?
05:12You don't come cheap.
05:14You're not right, are you?
05:15You don't come cheap.
05:16Oh.
05:17Today's main headline.
05:19Police investigating the murder of Gethin Benyon in Cunichel on Thursday.
05:23Have appealed for residents to come forward with any information that may aid the investigation.
05:29Midwell's police have stated that, despite a number of leads, they are currently no closer to finding an arrest.
05:35The killer shoved him and splat brains all over the headstone.
05:43You know, my macchiato hour used to be a sacred time.
05:48Don't mind me joining, do you?
05:50Mum, this is private police business.
05:52You won't know I'm here.
05:53Just popped in for a little.
05:54Can I have one of them chocolate pans, please, love?
05:58Chocolate pan?
05:59It's a pan of chocolate I've tried.
06:02Right.
06:02This is the bride and groom, and this is the victim.
06:06Gethin Benyon, 32, male, 6 foot 3.
06:09I don't need his measurements.
06:10I need to know about the man, how he thinks, his preoccupations, how he breathes.
06:14Well, he doesn't breathe anymore because he's dead, and the happy couple are off on their honeymoon soon,
06:18so we have to act quick.
06:20What are they going to happen at the wedding?
06:22The best man's not cold yet.
06:24Lucky he doesn't clash at a funeral.
06:26Right, okay.
06:27So, you say the murder was face to face.
06:31Intimate, what was it?
06:33Planned, planned chapel.
06:35No, no, no, no, it's not.
06:36No, this is a night of passion.
06:38Secret perhaps come to light in the darkness of the graveyard.
06:43Yes, that's interesting, chapel.
06:44I'm not going to share with you, man.
06:47My mental faculties are all present and correct.
06:53Thank you, Yvonne.
06:55Now, let's have a look.
06:57Ah, best man's speech.
06:59Anything interesting in this?
07:01Er, nothing, except for the dangerous level of bans.
07:03Though, one of the cards was missing.
07:05We think he must have lost it.
07:07Well, thank goodness the meticulously thorough arm of the law is on the case.
07:11No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:13No, look at this.
07:14Look, look.
07:14You see these?
07:15Look.
07:16Some actors, proper actors, do the same.
07:19Mark which words to emphasise were to leave a dramatic pause.
07:23Isn't that?
07:23But it's fastidious.
07:24No, these are not the preparations of a man that would just mislay an important part of his speech.
07:29His big moment.
07:30No.
07:31This card has been stolen.
07:32This speech is significant.
07:34You're right.
07:37The speech was significant.
07:39Well, it's a gift, you know.
07:41No, no, not this speech.
07:43Nathan, the brother.
07:44He had a speech printed out.
07:47Why?
07:48Unless he knew he was going to be the new best man.
07:52I'll have that chocolate pan to take away, love.
07:54Are you off?
07:55I'll come with.
07:56As you're going to Cumbergill, that's where my vets are.
07:59We can go by mine and pick him up.
08:00Alan's off his food.
08:02Alan?
08:03Stray cat.
08:03They have deep and meaningfuls, apparently.
08:05Shout out to Catford, now.
08:07I'll get this, shall I?
08:11Rhiannon?
08:12Janie?
08:14Rhiannon?
08:15Yvonne?
08:17John Chappell?
08:19Hello.
08:22Can I get a latte, please, with oat milk?
08:26I have IBS.
08:27I can't have dairy.
08:30I'm the same with lentils.
08:32Tell me like a washing machine.
08:33Mum, come on.
08:39Bit of a peculiar vibe.
08:41There's a sense in history there.
08:43Who was that?
08:44Nobody.
08:44Rhiannon Hopkins.
08:46She's got some nerves showing her face around here again after what she did to you.
08:49Mum!
08:50Made her life hell.
08:52I'd half of mind to give her a right telling off in there.
08:54Well, you didn't.
08:55You chatted about lentils.
08:56So drop it.
08:58Mum, what are you doing?
08:59Why can't I come?
09:00I love weddings.
09:01This isn't a wedding.
09:02It's a murder investigation.
09:04And a taxi service for cats, apparently.
09:06I'm sure I've got to get a taxi licence with his rolling scrappy.
09:09Have a good murder.
09:15Yeah.
09:27Sick everywhere.
09:28You told me he was a seasoned traveller.
09:30I'm sorry, but I've probably found your driving alarming and he's not alone.
09:35Anyway, sensitivity is not well.
09:37It's underpowered him.
09:38Well, he can get the bus home.
09:40My back seat will never be the same again.
09:42And while we're here, no talking to my suspects.
09:44Keep a low profile, okay?
09:46You're fatally, is it?
09:47Oh, crap.
09:49It is you, isn't it?
09:50Caesar.
09:51I always loved you in that Vision Express advert years ago.
09:55This was murder.
09:56It's clear to see.
09:58Yes, yes.
09:59It was my finest hour.
10:01You're not going to be finished soon.
10:04All these police comings and goings, it's disturbing the badgers.
10:07Badgers?
10:08I'm head of the commercial badger watches.
10:10We get very rare badgers around here.
10:12Only ever since this murder, there's been no sign of them.
10:15All gone underground.
10:16Don't they live underground?
10:18Another enthusiast, is it?
10:20Sorry, got to go.
10:21Proper police business to be doing.
10:23What, all three of them?
10:25Oh, yes.
10:26Yes, he's a very highly trained FSO.
10:30Feline special operative.
10:38Oh, sorry.
10:40Sorry.
10:41Let me jump.
10:42Not nervous, are you?
10:44No.
10:45All good.
10:46Just a busy, busy day.
10:47God, your boot is clean.
10:49What do you clean it with?
10:50I only ask because my car's covered in cat sick.
10:54Car shampoo.
10:56Yeah, coconut.
10:58Ooh.
10:58Yeah, smells like pina coladas.
11:01All ready for the best man speech?
11:03Honestly, I'm breaking it.
11:04Yeah.
11:06Didn't you have a speech ready on the morning of the wedding?
11:08Almost like you knew Gethin wasn't going to turn up or something.
11:11No.
11:12I just, um, I wrote it weeks ago.
11:15Just wanted to be prepared in case Aaron changed his mind.
11:19Do you know what I smell, Nathan?
11:21Apart from the properly lush coconut aromas.
11:23Honestly, you're going to have to tell me where you get that car shampoo.
11:25No, what I smell is somebody lying.
11:31All right.
11:32I thought he'd asked me to be best man.
11:34I mean, I'm his brother.
11:36Gethin was a tool.
11:37But Aaron never saw it.
11:39Even when Gethin got chucked out of uni, Aaron still thought he was a legend.
11:42You really didn't like him.
11:44No, it's not just me.
11:46Sean had didn't like him.
11:47She thought I should be best man too.
11:48I mean, why would you choose him over your own brother?
11:52Because he was hot.
11:52It's good for the photos.
11:53Sorry.
11:54Shouldn't have said that out loud.
11:55But, um, hey, you're the best man now and that's all that matters.
12:02Yeah.
12:02Yeah.
12:04Don't mess it up.
12:06Joking.
12:08Or am I?
12:09I am.
12:18Oh, yeah.
12:25Oh, that's, um, um, um, um, sorry.
12:35I was in a world of my own then.
12:37Can I help you?
12:38No, I was just admiring this superb Kioskuro here.
12:44Yes, I could feel the passion behind each brushstroke.
12:48Oh, uh, Ta, that's, um, that's one of mine, actually.
12:52Is it?
12:53Yeah.
12:53Oh, oh, it is.
12:55Oh, well, congratulations.
12:56Thanks.
12:57Hang on, are you, are you John Chappell?
13:00Well.
13:01Shona Grant.
13:02Um, oh, what are you doing here?
13:06Well, I thought I'd pop in and see if I could find something that really speaks to me.
13:12I mean, most people just want something to match the curtains.
13:15I bet they do, yeah.
13:17Now, I've always been fascinated by how, how fine art painting and fine art performing are related.
13:25We both strive to reveal the concealed truth of human contradictions, don't you think?
13:30Oh, God, yeah.
13:31Yeah, absolutely.
13:33Mm-hmm.
13:33Oh, um, sorry, just, uh, wedding stuff.
13:38Yeah, of course, yeah.
13:39Mm.
13:40Yes.
13:43Well, what if we half the number of roses?
13:45It has.
13:45Okay, dahlias.
13:48Look, any colour.
13:50If it's got a stalk and it isn't dead, it'll be fine.
13:55Sorry, uh, having a bit of a mare.
13:58Getting married in two days.
14:00It's all about changing your florists.
14:01Oh!
14:01Yeah, well, uh, the, um, the bigger issue is the best man dropping out because he's dead.
14:08Sorry, um, ignore me.
14:14It's just, uh, been a lot to take in.
14:16Well, I heard about it on the news.
14:18Yeah, I'm sorry.
14:20It must have been a terrible shock for you.
14:23Yeah, I mean, if it was up to me, we'd wait, you know, and do things properly.
14:26But, um, well, I don't know, maybe that's worse.
14:29It's like we're forgetting him or something.
14:32Um, oh, sorry.
14:34Um, God, I don't even like Athen.
14:37No, no, no, I understand.
14:39No, you're an artist.
14:41We feel things too deeply.
14:44It's an affliction.
14:46Um, right.
14:48Why don't we do a private viewing?
14:50Oh!
14:51Lose ourselves in some art.
14:52I knew I had my money
14:55From the very beginning
14:57Can't just stop the june
14:59So you and me could protect
15:01It's getting ready
15:03Mmm, catsick and coconut.
15:07Better.
15:09PHONE RINGS
15:10PHONE RINGS
15:11Chowdhury?
15:14Janie, I've been looking into Geth and Bennion's financials, like you asked.
15:18Anything interesting?
15:19Two weeks ago, Geth and Bennion paid a classic car company
15:22two grand to hire the wedding car.
15:24He had.
15:25I think he'd be the father of the bride who'd be paying.
15:27He was.
15:27I took a statement from Chris Grant, who paid Gething to hire the wedding car.
15:32But he paid him four grand.
15:34Not two.
15:35Eddie now.
15:40Chris Grant?
15:41Yep.
15:42Deus Malawent, Trubassi ID.
15:44I know you.
15:47You're the Command and Carpet King!
15:49I remember your advert.
15:52Underlay, underlay, offer ends tomorrow.
15:54You're king.
15:54Come on, Zee.
15:55My mum had one of your carpets.
15:57Really?
15:58You say names Malawent?
15:59Yeah.
16:00Yeah, I remember it well.
16:01New pearl, penthouse grey.
16:02Good carpet.
16:02Good choice.
16:03Wow.
16:03Nice one.
16:05Anyway, what can I do for you, love?
16:06Oh, just tying up a few loose ends.
16:08Um, you paid Gething for the wedding car?
16:12Yeah.
16:13Yeah, he said he'd get me a deal, you know.
16:15Save a bit on the tax.
16:17I shouldn't be saying that to a copper, but you seem all right.
16:19I can't believe the Carpet King thinks I'm all right.
16:22I'm all fussing.
16:22Um, yeah, thing is, though, you paid him 4,000 and he only paid two.
16:30He was ripping you off.
16:32Really?
16:33Yeah.
16:36You know, he was a slimy little get.
16:39Shawnee wasn't a fan.
16:40He had a massive fallout with Aron's brother the night of the stag.
16:43Yeah, he probably had all this coming.
16:44I shouldn't have told you that either.
16:46Well, anyway, so...
16:47Pretty careless, you know, throwing your money around.
16:50The king should be more careful with the royal coin.
16:54Sorry, I'm annoying myself.
16:55Um, where were you the night of the murder?
16:58Oh.
16:59Um, well, I was staying with Shawnee till after the wedding.
17:03And Shawnee can verify your movements?
17:05Yeah, till about 9 o'clock.
17:07She's been going up early since I've been here.
17:09She says I've got to tell you I'm too loud.
17:10She goes up with her earplugs in between you and me.
17:14I think I'm getting on her wick a bit.
17:15Oh, poor you.
17:16Your Majesty.
17:18Sorry, sorry.
17:18I know, I know you're not a real king.
17:20You're not.
17:21Anyway, she's a grown woman.
17:23She doesn't want me under her feet.
17:24So, sorry, temporary.
17:26Like one of these sad adults.
17:28They live in a room with their parents, eh?
17:31Yeah, I still live with my mum.
17:38Look at that.
17:39Yep, well, I'd be late for A8.
17:41Yeah, got a faulty carburettor.
17:42Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:45Yeah, no, I'm not alcoholic.
17:46So, there we are.
17:51Well, all the best.
17:52Good luck with you all.
17:53Thanks.
17:56It's not forever living with my mum.
17:59Just save until I've got the deposit.
18:02I'm going to start looking at her flat.
18:04Pretty, pretty, he's gone.
18:06Gone.
18:06It's very striking.
18:12Sean Ed felt that I really responded to it viscerally.
18:16All right, Van Gogh.
18:17I told you to stay away from me, suspect.
18:19A transparent cry for help.
18:21Couldn't have made it clearer that subconsciously you wanted me involved.
18:24Luckily for you, I found an elegant way to do so.
18:27Oh, by spending a fortune on a painting of squares.
18:29Lifting the veil on a bride's true character and invigorating conversation on the contemporary
18:33arts has merely an added bonus.
18:35Oh, I bet.
18:36Pretty woman telling you what amazing taste you have in paint blobs.
18:40Of course you don't understand.
18:41You're barbarian.
18:42Yeah, it must have been a nice change from all the trivial chats with me about murder.
18:46Do you want to know what I found out?
18:48Well, please, furnish me with your rudimentary deductions.
18:51Why are you being more rude than normal?
18:53Because somebody's keeping me from my morning double espresso.
18:57It's in my cafe hour, and you know I don't like changing my schedule.
19:00But no, we have to meet here because you're avoiding some girl from the past.
19:03This has nothing to do with Rhiannon, okay?
19:05So just zip it and listen.
19:08Now, Gethin was ripping off the father of the bride for two grand.
19:14Well?
19:16Mildly interesting, yes.
19:18Yes, it tells us a little about Gethin psychology, but a petty cash crime?
19:23Yeah, no, it's, uh, it doesn't ring true as a motive.
19:28The real enigma here is the groom charging ahead with the wedding.
19:33Yes, Chappell, yeah, that's interesting.
19:34Aaron did just lose his best mate.
19:36People can get a bit weird when something like that happens.
19:38But still, it's hardly fitting for what's meant to be the happiest day of your life.
19:42No, it's Aaron's behaviour doesn't add up here.
19:45Now I shall dive a little deeper with Sean Ed later.
19:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're not seeing her again.
19:55Hmm, could be tricky.
19:57Oh, thank you so much. This is going to be amazing for my portfolio.
20:00Oh, please. No, it's a pleasure. It's all mine.
20:04Um, so, uh, what, where would you like me to, uh, to face?
20:10Um...
20:12I don't want to interfere with your choices, but I, I have been told that, uh,
20:18this is my most impactful side.
20:22Yeah, lush.
20:24I, this already feels like a really fruitful collaboration.
20:29I don't...
20:29Right. Pop your clothes on the stool.
20:37I, I didn't think that...
20:39I'm joking. Your face.
20:42Oh.
20:46Shake it off as a kind of him.
20:48Well, can you try it?
20:50She's got 14 Grammys. I think the Lord would approve.
20:53Hello?
20:55Hello?
20:57What is a...
20:58I know you.
21:00Yeah.
21:02Were you at Cardiff Digital Marketing Fest last year?
21:05Alas, no, I missed it.
21:07Oh.
21:07This is John Chappell, the actor. He's famous.
21:11Oh.
21:12Oh, of course. Yeah, from the...
21:15film?
21:16He's letting me paint him.
21:18The week of our wedding?
21:19Sean, how long is that going to take?
21:21Well, it takes as long as it takes. It's art.
21:22I can't put a time on these things.
21:24It's the focus all over again.
21:26Ah, here we go.
21:27Focus.
21:29Gaffin helped me buy a second-hand car last year, but I was too indecisive for someone.
21:33Ah.
21:34The demon of indecision.
21:37Interestingly, I once must have visited every showroom in Wales.
21:39You know what? I can't create with your energy in here.
21:43Why are you creating?
21:43It must have been a very difficult time for you both, yeah?
21:48Losing a friend, it's...
21:50Grief hits us all in different ways.
21:52Yeah, there's no time to grieve.
21:53Wedding, honeymoon, back to work.
21:55Digital marketing doesn't stop because someone died.
21:57Yeah?
21:57Yeah, I imagine yours is a very tough industry, balls to the wall, high pressure.
22:03Yeah.
22:04Yeah.
22:05Yeah, it's 24-7-365.
22:07I've always thought that I'd be good in marketing.
22:10You know, yeah, that ability to grasp the true desire of the human heart.
22:15To turn a mere object into a collective symbol of our deepest hopes and dreams.
22:20Yeah, funny tweets help too, but...
22:24Oh, sorry, caterers.
22:28Hello?
22:29Yes, if you're telling me you can't turn around a four-tier wedding sponge in 24 hours and hang up, homery.
22:34Nice to meet you.
22:38Sorry about him.
22:39He's under a lot of pressure.
22:42Actually, he's always like that.
22:44I see.
22:45Okay, where were we?
22:48So, Chowdhury, how's the CCTV hunt going?
22:50Yeah, really boring.
22:52It's like watching a telly without knowing what the programme is.
22:54You keep trying.
22:55Ooh, turns out our victim was chucked out of uni.
22:58See if you can find out why.
22:59Mm-hmm.
23:01Are you checking your socials?
23:03Not mine.
23:04Apparently, Gethin and the groom's brother fell out on the stab do.
23:09Legends on Tour 2025.
23:12Sick.
23:13Ooh.
23:14Has Nathan...
23:15Wet himself?
23:16Yeah.
23:16Looks like it.
23:18Why do men do that on stab do's?
23:21We don't all wet ourselves.
23:22Every stab do I've come back from dry as a bone.
23:25Actually, there was one time right, but I didn't think anyone would see it.
23:28So I just, like, kind of, like...
23:29Oh, thank God.
23:30Hi.
23:31Yeah.
23:31Come in now.
23:33Never, ever tell me the end of that story, okay?
23:35Gotcha.
23:36Cause of death, brain damage as the result of a fractured skull due to a severe blow to the head.
23:43Now, a couple of interesting things about our Gethin.
23:46What time did you say he was up using the toilet?
23:48The groom and his brother heard him in his bathroom running the taps at half midnight.
23:52Yeah, well, they're talking out their arse.
23:54I can be more precise about the time of death.
23:59His watch was smashed during the incident.
24:01It stopped at 11.30.
24:02Really?
24:04What else?
24:06His stomach contents.
24:07He has a lot of laxatives in his system.
24:09We're talking a lot.
24:10Ooh.
24:11Surprised we can't see Armitage Shanks imprinted on his arse the amount of time he must have spent on the toilet.
24:15Oh, maybe.
24:22Yeah, I think I know who's behind this.
24:24Oh, you've gone.
24:26I just wanted him out of the way for the wedding.
24:30And so I stuck a load of laxatives in with his vitamin powder the day before.
24:33And that's why he didn't leave his room all day?
24:35I went and looked for him.
24:37And then I found the body.
24:40I smashed the church door to make it look like a robbery.
24:43And then I washed the glass with the laxatives in, you know, in case of CSI stuff.
24:48And that's who Aaron heard running the taps.
24:52I didn't mean to kill him.
24:56Oh, no, you didn't kill him, Nathan.
25:00I didn't?
25:01No.
25:04For real?
25:05Yeah.
25:11Yeah.
25:11Well, I feel so good not to be a murderer.
25:14Yeah, yeah.
25:15Oh, one last thing.
25:16Um, when you did the laxatives, did you steal a card from the best man's speech?
25:21No.
25:22I never took any card.
25:28Okay.
25:28Thanks, Chowdhury.
25:29Got you some biscuits.
25:30I ate them on the drive over.
25:32What?
25:33Don't even have lunch yet.
25:34You're almost saint-like in your care for others.
25:37That was Chowdhury on the phone.
25:39He's been in touch with Cardiff Uni about why Geffen got chucked out.
25:44He'd been stealing exam papers and selling them to students.
25:48What are you doing?
25:53Stretching.
25:54I'm exhausted.
25:55I've been sitting all day.
25:57Oh, poor you.
25:58I've been on my feet since six.
26:00Oh, you'd understand if you've ever sat.
26:02I mean, truly sat.
26:03The focus required.
26:05Oh, it's a high wire act.
26:07Yeah, yeah, you're amazing.
26:09Well, it's all Chowdhury, really.
26:11Even though I said it was taxing, you know, it's...
26:14She makes it all seem effortless.
26:17Time seems to fly when I talk to her.
26:19Oh, and time doesn't fly when you're talking to me.
26:21Well, it's different, isn't it?
26:23It's more cultured.
26:25Oi, I'm cultured.
26:26I watch BBC Four, and not just because of the old top of the pops.
26:30I think you're getting a bit too close to someone who could be our killer.
26:32No, no, no, no.
26:34I'm remaining completely neutral here.
26:37But Seanette, killer?
26:39At the question, it's ridiculous.
26:41It's insulting.
26:42She's a sensitive, artistic soul.
26:44It doesn't equate.
26:45She didn't like Gethin.
26:47She liked him enough for them to be having an affair.
26:49She was having an affair with her fiancé's best friend.
26:52Really?
26:54Seanette's not a picky person.
26:56She didn't mind what flower she had at her wedding,
26:58and yet she was crippled with indecision about buying a second-hand car.
27:01I don't know what she was doing with Gethin,
27:03but they weren't looking at hatchbacks.
27:05Poor Aaron.
27:05Well, he's not exactly a paragon of innocence.
27:08He turned his wedding into a networking event.
27:10Yeah, well, his best friend was sleeping with his fiancé.
27:13Sort of swings and roundabouts.
27:14He prioritised his career over his partner.
27:17Now, that is unforgivable.
27:18No, it's not.
27:18You can't judge people by your standards.
27:21Not everybody has a perfect marriage.
27:22You don't know a thing about my marriage.
27:27Well, I would if you actually spoke about it.
27:30I bet you never shut up about Ellen to artsy-fartsy-shonhead.
27:34I would rather my late wife remain conversationally off-limits, okay?
27:39But I want to talk about her.
27:40I want to talk about what you were like together.
27:42Like, who was in charge of the remote?
27:44I bet you can tell a lot from that.
27:46But you never talked to me about it, even though I could see how happy you were.
27:50Oh, yes, because my marriage was perfect.
27:53I was so busy with work, I didn't even know she was dying.
28:00Until it was almost too late.
28:02I don't want to hear your amateur attempts at psychology.
28:08What do you know about real human relationships?
28:11The person you spent most of your time with is a television character.
28:15He's probably the only reason you're even here.
28:21Fine.
28:23But unlike the actual amateur in the room, I'm going to follow the evidence.
28:27You can save your waffling for your chats with Alan.
28:30Oi, you know he's not been well.
28:32That was...
28:33He's in very poor taste.
28:38Okay, we did have a thing.
28:40But it was over months ago.
28:42You should have mentioned the relationship with Gethin earlier.
28:44I know, but it was embarrassing more than anything.
28:47Look, Gethin was cheesy.
28:49You know, the kind of bloke you have a really bad one-night stand with.
28:52And I went and had about 15 with him.
28:54Why?
28:56What's that saying about why men climb mountains?
28:58I don't know, because they're weird.
29:00No, because he was there.
29:03Since mid-century, he's been eating monkey nuts out of it.
29:07Diolch, Dad.
29:08I don't even go about T-Shareken Reich.
29:09I don't even go about T-Shareken Reich.
29:11I don't even ask him to step down.
29:14Bit weird, are there?
29:16Well, not much, because we maybe sort of slept together again.
29:20Look, I'm not perfect, okay?
29:24Did Aaron know about the affair?
29:25God, no.
29:27Of course I knew about the affair.
29:29I'm sure the Lord wouldn't mind one glitter cannon.
29:32Could ask him.
29:34Yeah, murder investigation here.
29:39You decided to keep Gethin as your best man,
29:42even though he was shaking sheets with your fiancée.
29:44I know it seems crazy, but it's just an affair.
29:47Me and Shonad will speak after the big day.
29:49I've already got a spreadsheet for couples counsellors.
29:51Right, probably a good idea.
29:53Yeah.
29:54And there's always divorce.
29:55Okay, well, if that's everything...
29:56No, no, no.
29:58You know what's been bugging me?
29:59With every fact I learn about Gethin,
30:01why you chose to keep him as your best man...
30:04He was my oldest friend.
30:06Yeah, from uni.
30:07Until he got chucked out for selling exam papers.
30:10See, now, does that sound in character for Gethin?
30:13A complex university exam fraud syndicate.
30:16He had hidden depths?
30:17No, it has somebody else's fingerprints all over it.
30:21Your fingerprints.
30:22Sorry, I should ask before I touch you.
30:24Yeah.
30:25Yeah.
30:27Okay, fine.
30:29Yes, it was me.
30:30Cool.
30:31When that all came out, I thought that was my future over.
30:35I should have been thrown out, but Gethin took the fall.
30:37So you owed him?
30:38Yeah, but he pushed it too far.
30:41He stopped trying at work.
30:42He kept upping his salary.
30:44I mean, I had to put my foot down.
30:45I told him we were square.
30:46Yeah, but Gethin said, nah, and threatened to expose you.
30:51I checked his best man's speech, and there were all these jokes about there's no cheat sheet for a married life.
30:56So you shut him up.
30:58All I did was take the card out of his speech.
31:00Can you move back a bit?
31:02Oh, yeah.
31:03Sorry, eh?
31:05Yeah, he had Flaffle for lunch.
31:06It always repeats on me.
31:08Yeah.
31:08I just find him such majestic creatures.
31:13That's why I'm keen to join, you see.
31:15I'd really love to find out more about the local badger population.
31:19Now then, here's your card.
31:20Oh.
31:21Membership number 002.
31:24I'm a famous member.
31:25This could really help us get local press attention.
31:28You could be our bono.
31:29I was actually wondering, um, do you have, er, night vision cameras to, to, er, to watch the badgers?
31:40Yeah, yeah, go on here in my garden.
31:42Amazing the things you see.
31:44Cut a badger.
31:45Having a play with a fox.
31:47Just, yeah.
31:50Well, that's, you know, one moment, please.
31:53So, you're suddenly into badgers, or you're just interfering with my investigation?
32:02Probably the latter.
32:04But, er, I was actually hoping to run into you to, er, say sorry.
32:12Bloody hell.
32:14Probably the only word I've never heard you say.
32:17Well, I shouldn't have taken it out on you.
32:20But in my defence, I was worried about Alan.
32:23And I've been sitting all day.
32:24Like, you really don't understand the effect.
32:27Okay, okay, okay, stop now, whilst the apology's still an apology.
32:30And, for the record, Caesar's not the only reason why I come to you.
32:34He couldn't do what you do.
32:36The character, emotional business, you know.
32:40Plus, he is way cleverer than you.
32:41Like, he's an actual genius.
32:42Yeah, all right, I think your point has already been rather succinctly made.
32:46But, I, er, I think I have found a way to make it up to you.
32:51Oh, it's not a candle, is it?
32:53Because, honestly, I just, I don't understand the hype of those sort of things.
32:55I think it's just, like, burning money.
32:58The Kummer Shell Badger Watchers have a night vision camera that points towards the churchyard.
33:05We asked everyone in the area if they had CCTV.
33:11It's not CCTV.
33:12It's an infrared badger account.
33:14Oh.
33:15Right, well, I think we've got some evening viewing.
33:19Yeah.
33:25Do you think we'll ever actually see a badger?
33:28Hmm.
33:29Oh!
33:30There, another crisp packet.
33:33Wow.
33:36Artie Seanhead really can't do hands.
33:39No, an artistic soul, but not the most gifted at portraiture.
33:43Your fingers look like sausages.
33:46It's Seanhead.
33:47Yeah, I know, she can't paint for...
33:49Oh, it's Seanhead!
33:50In your statement, you said you were in bed from 9pm,
33:54but you went to the churchyard to meet Gethin around the time he was murdered.
34:01For the tape, I have just shown the suspect footage of her heading to the churchyard to meet Gethin.
34:06For the tape, I also really like the suspect's brooch.
34:09Oh, do you?
34:11My bear with tiger and bear.
34:12For the tape, the suspect has just responded in Welsh
34:14and named a shop that is way out of my price range.
34:18This does not look good.
34:20I mean the footage, not the brooch.
34:22What were you doing there?
34:24Gethin texted me.
34:26Said he had to see me, so I snuck out my bedroom window.
34:30I feel like a 15-year-old climbing out while Dad was watching telly.
34:33You went to see him even though your affair had finished,
34:35what was it you said, months ago?
34:37It had.
34:38Only that night, Gethin said...
34:40He said he was in love with me.
34:43He wanted us to run away together.
34:46Look, I told him it was over.
34:47It was a mistake.
34:48And how did he react to that?
34:49Well, not great, but he came round eventually.
34:55OK, fine.
34:56He threatened to tell Aaron everything.
34:58So you killed him?
34:59No!
34:59I called him an idiot and I told him to go home.
35:01Look, can't we do this another time?
35:03I'm getting married in the morning.
35:05Let's go over the timeline again.
35:06And also, out of curiosity, how much was the brooch?
35:11We didn't have enough to arrest her.
35:15Chris dismissed the duty solicitor, brought in some big hot shot.
35:19Must have cost a bomb.
35:20Well, mine is no object when it comes to protecting his little girl.
35:23It's at the core of his character.
35:25I just...
35:27I just can't see it being Sean Ed.
35:30The evidence is there.
35:32She went sneaking out the house to meet a former lover around the time he was murdered.
35:35Yes, but she wouldn't kill to protect her secret.
35:39If anything, she's the victim of a work-obsessed fiancé.
35:42Is it possible this is a little bit about you?
35:44I just think Sean Ed deserves someone who cares about her.
35:48Who'd do anything to make her happy.
35:54Of course.
35:55What?
35:57The television.
35:59Something was off about her story.
36:01I think we're going to have to stop a wedding.
36:03I said it first.
36:04What are you doing, yeah?
36:22OK, settle down.
36:24T.M. is still out?
36:25Dim really.
36:26Spanx.
36:27Got a tick?
36:28We can't cancel the wedding again.
36:30No, it looks amateurish.
36:31I'm afraid your grand vision has to give way to something even more precious.
36:37The truth.
36:39Is that Caesar?
36:40What's he doing here?
36:42Mr. Chappell came to me as a concerned citizen.
36:46Very quietly.
36:48And in the background.
36:50I'm not just an aficionado of the arts.
36:53But aficionado of justice.
36:56Do you understand the word background?
36:59Yeah, can someone explain what the hell's going on?
37:00Between you all, there's been a lot of secrets.
37:03And they're going to come out now.
37:05There was one secret that led to Gethin's death.
37:10He was having an affair.
37:16With Sean Ed.
37:19Sorry, I tried to wait.
37:21It's OK.
37:22I knew.
37:23You weren't exactly subtle.
37:28Stank and savage.
37:29Right, OK.
37:30That's the end of this circus now.
37:32Thank you very much.
37:33I'm going to walk my daughter down the aisle.
37:35Not today.
37:37Chris Grant, I'm arresting you.
37:38What's going on?
37:39Don't listen to her, Shawnee.
37:41Doesn't know what she's saying.
37:42You killed Gethin.
37:45Over 2,000 quid?
37:46It wasn't about the money.
37:48But it was about the wedding.
37:50You put a lot of pressure on the wedding being perfect.
37:54A way to make up for the past.
37:56Sean, what the hell's he got to do with you, mate?
37:58Eh?
37:59I mean, that's not a sin, is it?
38:00It's not a crime?
38:01Yeah, very much in the foreground right now as well.
38:03Oh, indeed.
38:03Not a crime.
38:05But the pressure built up.
38:08Sean Ed went to bed.
38:10You were feeling the stress.
38:11Your guilt over your neglect of Sean Ed as a child.
38:14Your alcoholism.
38:16No.
38:16You hated yourself.
38:17No.
38:18You tried to resist.
38:20But you needed a drink.
38:22You found one, and you went to where the local teenagers go to drink.
38:27The churchyard.
38:29Oh, Dad.
38:30You're a considerate dad.
38:32You wouldn't have the telly on loud the night before a wedding,
38:35unless you wanted her to put her earplugs in
38:38so you could sneak out.
38:40You went to the churchyard around the back.
38:43That's why we didn't pick you up on Badger Cam.
38:45Okay, you're going to have to explain Badger Cam.
38:49After a while, you heard somebody coming, so you heard.
38:52You were there.
38:53No.
38:54You heard the argument between Gethin and Sean Ed.
38:57You heard him threatening to ruin her big day.
39:00You wouldn't let that happen.
39:01I wasn't there.
39:03We found a bottle near the body.
39:04A bottle of Chateau-Pont-Balivet.
39:10Chateau-Pont-Balivet.
39:12That one, yep.
39:14A Pinot Noir.
39:15Goes surprisingly well with fish.
39:16Does it?
39:17It does.
39:18We're running forensics on it.
39:20I think it will prove the link between you and the crime scene.
39:25Dad?
39:25It wasn't just a threat.
39:40It was the way he spoke to you, Sean.
39:44I had to do something.
39:46You didn't have to do anything.
39:47Okay.
39:51I told him I couldn't have him brood in her wedding day.
39:54You could see I'd been drinking and he laughed.
39:59And then he said he was going to tell Sean everything.
40:03I just pushed him.
40:10I didn't mean to kill him.
40:12Why couldn't you just leave things alone?
40:15I couldn't have him treat my little girl like that.
40:17Please let me walk my daughter, tell me I am.
40:32I'm sorry.
40:39I'm sorry.
40:40I feel terrible, Sean.
40:51Um, truly if...
40:53Oh, shut up and go away.
40:54Fair enough.
40:55They've rearranged the wedding for next week, no?
41:02Of course, I like to them.
41:03I doubt it will last.
41:06And you know marriage is perfect, I suppose.
41:10You know,
41:12Sean doesn't care
41:13that Aaron loves his work.
41:16She's choosing him anyway.
41:18Don't.
41:18I'm just saying, look.
41:20I don't know what happened
41:22with you and Ellen,
41:23but
41:23I'm sure you were a brilliant husband.
41:26Oh, yeah.
41:27Yeah, so consumed in my work
41:29that Ellen couldn't tell me she was ill.
41:32If I'd have known her.
41:36I could have been there more.
41:38Maybe she didn't want you there more.
41:41Sorry, that sounds harsh,
41:43but
41:43maybe what she
41:45needed
41:46was to be alone.
41:48Or what she thought she needed.
41:51Either way,
41:52it was her choice.
41:55Don't take that away from her.
42:06All right, don't look now.
42:08Uh, yeah,
42:09they're very much
42:10looking now.
42:11Yeah, uh,
42:12should we go somewhere else?
42:13No.
42:14I think I'm
42:14open up latte, please.
42:16I'm not hiding anymore.
42:17I'm going to deal with this
42:18like an adult.
42:24All right?
42:24All right?
42:25You all right?
42:26Yeah, you all right?
42:28Yeah.
42:28I'm all right.
42:33You all right?
42:34Yeah.
42:35Well,
42:36it takes the bigger person
42:38to stand up
42:39and ignore the past.
42:40That shows real growth.
42:42Yeah, no,
42:43not that.
42:44I, uh,
42:44switched our drinks.
42:45Full fat dairy.
42:46She's going to be here
42:47part of the night
42:47redecorating the bathroom.
42:50Thanks.
42:51I'll take that back
42:52about growth.
42:53That was infantile
42:54and crass.
42:56Can you give me a lift, please?
42:58I need to take
42:59my portrait
42:59to the tip.
43:01Aw,
43:01can I have it?
43:02It's hilarious.
43:04Absolutely not.
43:05Oh, go on.
43:06It's great.
43:06You can tell it's good
43:07because the dodgy hands
43:08actually follow you
43:09round the room.
43:13What?
43:14Forget it.
43:14Forget it.
43:16It's dead.
43:16Oh, go on.
43:26Oh, go on.
43:27Oh, go on.
43:28Oh, go on.
