00:00:00I want to show him, oh, an absolute disgrace.
00:00:06That's what it is, complete a lot.
00:00:12See how he likes it when no one turns off?
00:00:16This will teach him.
00:00:23Hi, they've been at it all morning, it's killing my business.
00:00:26So I've seen, they're all over the village.
00:00:30Blue or grey?
00:00:36I prefer the good.
00:00:40Hmm, blue it is then.
00:00:53Brad!
00:00:54Hi, good girl.
00:00:56Thanks for coming.
00:00:58Did Brad rob a jewellers?
00:01:00I'd have stolen the crown jewels to get Frankie to say yes.
00:01:06What's with your pants?
00:01:07They can't even stretch to real champagne.
00:01:09Well, this is a step up for them.
00:01:11I was expecting tap water.
00:01:13I don't know what you're smiling about.
00:01:14The village have voted to boycott our flower festival.
00:01:28Fear not, my dear, your brilliant husband has it all in hand.
00:01:32What does that mean?
00:01:34Oh, what have you done now?
00:01:35Is there nothing else?
00:01:36No, unfortunately not.
00:01:41Oh, they're beautiful.
00:01:44Thank you, Kim and E.
00:01:46I was hoping you might hire me to do the flowers on your big day.
00:01:49Oh, I...
00:01:50Yeah, we're not really making any clear-cut decisions yet.
00:01:55It's good to see you.
00:01:56I'm alright.
00:01:57I think I'm getting a cold.
00:01:58You might be over the moon for Frankie.
00:02:06This is me being over the moon.
00:02:11Who the hell is that?
00:02:13Yes!
00:02:16It's amazing, isn't it?
00:02:18My mum used to tell me about this place.
00:02:22Why have you stopped?
00:02:23Many others can start setting up.
00:02:25Yes.
00:02:26You've got to come and say hello.
00:02:27I can't do this on my own.
00:02:29You're the one who couldn't wait to come here.
00:02:30Not me.
00:02:32Come on, guys!
00:02:51Nah!
00:02:52I presume.
00:02:53How shall we handle this?
00:02:54Like Livingston and Stanley?
00:02:57It's...
00:02:58It's a bigger moment than that.
00:02:59Oh.
00:03:00Oh!
00:03:01Oh!
00:03:02Um...
00:03:03Girls, I want you to meet your uncle.
00:03:05We don't have an uncle.
00:03:06What on earth is going on?
00:03:08Myrtle, this is my half-brother, Noah.
00:03:10And suffice to say, until recently, neither of us knew the other existed.
00:03:15Hi.
00:03:16Hi.
00:03:17Well, it's great to meet you all.
00:03:22I didn't want to turn up empty-handed.
00:03:26Oh!
00:03:27That's...
00:03:28That's lovely.
00:03:29Time starts now, as they say.
00:03:30Oh.
00:03:31Listen.
00:03:32Oh!
00:03:33Oh!
00:03:34Shut up!
00:03:35Cuckoo!
00:03:36Cuckoo!
00:03:37Wow.

00:03:41Oh!
00:03:42Oh!
00:03:43Shut up!
00:03:44Cuckoo!
00:03:45Wow.
00:03:46Come on, everyone.
00:03:47Let's get a photo of you all by the clock.
00:03:48Oh!
00:03:49It's a big moment!
00:03:50Old family, new family, family of the future.
00:03:52I'm not family.
00:03:53Just smile and say cheese.
00:03:55Knew, guggu...

00:04:00You have your report on marrying my daughter?
00:04:01That's not what we agreed on.
00:04:02Okay, then, Uncle?
00:04:03I really need someone.
00:04:04Let's get a photo of you all by the clock.
00:04:05Well, it's a big moment!
00:04:06Old family?
00:04:07New family?
00:04:08Family of the future?
00:04:09I'm not family.
00:04:10Just smile and say cheese.
00:04:11My Aunty.
00:04:14Gw, gu, aku!
00:04:16Love!
00:04:17Hang on.
00:04:18We need the happy couple in the middle.
00:04:20Come on.
00:04:21You have your reward for marrying my daughter.
00:04:23That's not what we agreed, Alan.
00:04:25It's so, Alan, to you.
00:04:29Oh, very nice.
00:04:31That's it. Well done, everyone.
00:04:51Oh, my God.
00:05:21Oh, my God.
00:05:51I thought I was going to build this.
00:06:03Yeah, you did think that.
00:06:05And then I decided it needs doing properly.
00:06:08As you are well aware, my grandfather was a master carpenter.
00:06:12He was a carpenter.
00:06:14You make a brilliant detective.
00:06:19Oh, Winter.
00:06:20Sir.
00:06:21Oh.
00:06:22What are you building?
00:06:23Well, if I do it, it's going to be in Arbor.
00:06:25And if John does it...
00:06:26Presumably there's a reason you're here this early.
00:06:29I thought it'd be this place.
00:06:30I almost came here last year.
00:06:31They have an annual flower festival.
00:06:32I know you're into horticulture, Winter.
00:06:33I'm not, but this girl I was seeing was...
00:06:35When you say you almost came here.
00:06:36Well, when you say you almost came here.
00:06:37Well, when she took one look at my house plants, she decided that I wasn't the one for her.
00:06:42Apparently I put the wrong perennials next to each other in the same pot.
00:06:43Small margins, Winter.
00:06:44Well, how am I supposed to know that some plants don't get on?
00:06:46Looks like more police are in there.
00:06:47Yeah.
00:06:48Yeah.
00:06:49Looks like more police are arriving.
00:06:50I'm not sure.
00:06:51I know you're into horticulture, Winter.
00:06:52I know you're into horticulture.
00:06:53No, I'm not, but this girl I was seeing was...
00:06:54When you say you almost came here.
00:06:55Well, when she took one look at my house plants, she decided that I wasn't the one for
00:06:56her.
00:06:57Apparently I put the wrong perennials next to each other in the same pot.
00:06:58Small margins, Winter.
00:06:59Well, how am I supposed to know that some plants don't get on?
00:07:01Looks like more police are arriving.
00:07:18Do you think I should go up there?
00:07:20Then do what?
00:07:21I think I should go up there.
00:07:23Then do what?
00:07:25I don't actually know.
00:07:27I mean, how do brothers brother?
00:07:35There.
00:07:45Where did you get to last night?
00:07:47I woke up and you weren't there.
00:07:49I took a walk to calm down.
00:07:55If your brother needs you, he will tell you.
00:08:04Hello?
00:08:06Here's a new one for you.
00:08:08The poor fellow was pecked to death.
00:08:12Pecked?
00:08:13We didn't realize it was the murder weapon
00:08:15till it struck the hour and stabbed one of my sockos.
00:08:19He's like he is tall.
00:08:21Well, taller than the victim.
00:08:23Watch this.
00:08:25Better stand back first.
00:08:29Further?
00:08:31Well, I've seen everything now.
00:08:41The victim's name was Brad Furbank, aged 29.
00:08:47Time of death?
00:08:48Judging from his lividity and rigor, I'd say he'd been dead at least five hours.
00:08:52Well, that will put it about three o'clock this morning.
00:08:55Who found him?
00:08:56The lady of the house.
00:08:57Myrtle Bruce.
00:08:58Well, she lives here with her husband, Sir Alan.
00:09:01Where was the clock hanging?
00:09:03It was level with that ghoulish portrait.
00:09:07The cuckoo stabbed Brad and he came tumbling down the stairs.
00:09:12Well, it seems they were right all along.
00:09:15Time is indeed the enemy.
00:09:21I couldn't believe it.
00:09:22Brad was just lying at the foot of the stairs.
00:09:26What time was this?
00:09:27Probably about seven.
00:09:29You hadn't heard anything before that, say around three this morning?
00:09:33I had a bit too much to drink last night.
00:09:37So I was out like a light.
00:09:42Don't look at me.
00:09:43I tend to sleep the sleep of the just.
00:09:46All right.
00:09:48Tell me about Brad.
00:09:50Presumably he lived here with you.
00:09:52Oh, goodness, no.
00:09:53He's been staying at the Raging Stag.
00:09:55It's a pub in the village.
00:09:57Would either of you know why he came here in the middle of the night?
00:10:04I hadn't a clue what Brad was doing here.
00:10:06Presumably he was coming to see you.
00:10:08But he knew I was out last night with my friends carrying on the celebrations.
00:10:14So it was our engagement party yesterday.
00:10:18It's all right. I'm here.
00:10:20When did you get back to Godly Manor?
00:10:22I didn't.
00:10:23My friends and I crashed at Cordelia's flat.
00:10:26I saw it. I can't believe this.
00:10:28I'm sorry. I just have a few more questions.
00:10:33When did you last see Brad?
00:10:35Yesterday evening.
00:10:36Before I left with my friends.
00:10:38That was around nine, I think.
00:10:40And did anything untoward happen before then?
00:10:43Does the arrival of an uncle we never knew he had qualify?
00:10:45The clock was a gift.
00:10:48From a brother-in-law I didn't know I had.
00:10:51It's a long story.
00:10:53I'd still like to hear it.
00:10:55Well, my father, Sir Percival Bruce, sired Noah out of wedlock.
00:11:00Noah?
00:11:01Noah Connoboy.
00:11:02Now, I had no idea he existed until the family solicitor told me at my father's funeral.
00:11:06Was this recently?
00:11:08Uh, about six weeks ago.
00:11:11So, I asked Brad to search for him.
00:11:14He's very good at the internet.
00:11:16Well, was.
00:11:19So, Noah turned up with the clock?
00:11:21Yes, he said that he'd made it especially for the occasion.
00:11:24Shall I save you some time?
00:11:26The only reason Noah's here is to claim his share.
00:11:30Oh, so you think Sir Alan was the intended target?
00:11:32A child of five could tell you that.
00:11:35So, off you trot and go and arrest Noah.
00:11:38He'll be outside, contaminating our grounds.
00:11:41What my darling wife means is that Noah's arrived with his troop.
00:11:45They put on oldie-worldie woodworking festivals.
00:11:48Very popular, apparently.
00:11:50Brings people from far and wide.
00:11:52So, we don't need some limp flower festival when we can replace it with something much more popular.
00:11:58Did Brad work in the village?
00:12:02He could work anywhere.
00:12:04He was in Bitcoin.
00:12:05He was doing really well.
00:12:06Always on his phone, checking the markets.
00:12:09So, you didn't have an argument with someone in godly buzzards, are you?
00:12:13Brad, never.
00:12:14He was really popular.
00:12:15My sister can vouch for that.
00:12:17He was lovely.
00:12:18Never seen Frankie as happy.
00:12:24You know, I nearly came to the flower festival last year.
00:12:27Would have been a waste of time.
00:12:29It was rained off.
00:12:30Worst thunderstorm in decades.
00:12:32Destroyed all the flower beds.
00:12:33It was an absolute disaster.
00:12:35Hm.
00:12:36Well, hopefully it'll be different this year.
00:12:38No chance.
00:12:39The village have boycotted it.
00:12:41Our magnanimous father decided to charge double this year.
00:12:44Which made a lot of people very angry.
00:12:46We're looking for a Noah Connor boy.
00:13:08That will be me.
00:13:10I saw you earlier.
00:13:11But you were, um, a bit taller.
00:13:14Oh.
00:13:15Yeah.
00:13:16Yeah, no, I get that a lot.
00:13:20Uh, sorry.
00:13:21I'm Nessie.
00:13:22Nessie Copeland.
00:13:24What's happening up at the house?
00:13:25I'm afraid we have reason to believe that, uh, Brad Furbank was murdered last night.
00:13:31Murdered?
00:13:32Are you serious?
00:13:34That's awful.
00:13:36And what can you tell us about the cooking clock?
00:13:39It tells the time.
00:13:41What else is there to say?
00:13:43Did you build it yourself?
00:13:44I craft everything myself.
00:13:46Sorry, why are you asking about a cuckoo clock?
00:13:49Its spring had been tightened to a murderous degree.
00:13:53A-a sharp piece of metal had been attached to the cuckoo's beak.
00:13:56The second it chimed, it sprang out, and...
00:13:59I'm sure you can work out the rest.
00:14:02Everyone saw the clock yesterday.
00:14:05There wasn't anything attached to the beak.
00:14:06Um, there was a woman taking photos.
00:14:10That'll prove it.
00:14:12Uh, I think she was called Kimony.
00:14:14Runs the flower shop in the village.
00:14:16This has nothing to do with Noah.
00:14:19Did either of you notice anything, uh, off at the engagement party?
00:14:24I-I wasn't there.
00:14:26I was here with the others setting up. There's a lot to do.
00:14:28Alan wants me to put on a festival.
00:14:30He couldn't get me here quick enough.
00:14:32Did you know your father owned all of this?
00:14:33I was born in the village.
00:14:36It wasn't long before my mother up sticks.
00:14:39But she often told me about this place.
00:14:42Is that your way of saying that you did know?
00:14:45When you put it like that, I guess it is.
00:14:48It is.
00:14:53Well, sir, Noah could have been trying to kill Sir Alan because there's obviously something to gain.
00:14:57I can see it now.
00:14:58He-he sneaks back up to the house, rigs the clock, and then potentially inherits the lot.
00:15:02But how would he know Sir Alan was going to get so close to it and at the exact time?
00:15:08Fleur.
00:15:10It's called a dibbler.
00:15:11Say that again.
00:15:12Gardeners use it to make holes in the ground.
00:15:14Oh, thanks as ever, Fleur.
00:15:16I'm still talking.
00:15:18The so-called emeralds in its eyes are paste, and the beak is gold plate.
00:15:23It may look a million dollars, but it's worth less than a real cuckoo.
00:15:25Well, the piece of metal attached to the beak is called a dibbler.
00:15:33Erm, what's a dibbler when it's at home?
00:15:35If you'd bothered looking after your houseplants, Winter, you would know that a dibbler is a tool that gardeners use.
00:15:42And now, murderers, apparently.
00:15:51Sorry, mate.
00:15:52We don't need the extra kegs.
00:15:53Blame the village for boycotting the flower festival.
00:15:56I'm not going to shift a tenth of what I normally do this time of year.
00:15:59Sorry, pal.
00:16:05Mr. Solanke.
00:16:14Were you aware that Brad had gone up to Godly Manor in the early hours of this morning?
00:16:19Did he?
00:16:20I didn't know.
00:16:21When was the last time you saw him?
00:16:23Last night, just before I locked up.
00:16:26Did you notice anything unusual at the engagement party?
00:16:30Not really, no.
00:16:31Well, not unless you count that moment with Kimony.
00:16:34Kimony?
00:16:35Kimony bullet.
00:16:36Brad told her not to do the flowers for the wedding and she seemed quite annoyed, but not murderously so.
00:16:45Did you see the clock being hung on the wall?
00:16:46Everyone saw it.
00:16:47Everyone saw it.
00:16:48It was a work of art.
00:16:49Wish I had skills like that.
00:16:50I can barely put up a shelf.
00:16:52Should have listened to her mother and done a corset.
00:16:54Thank you, Mr. Solanke.
00:16:55My team will obviously need access to Brad's room.
00:16:58Why he wasn't killed here.
00:16:59We need to go through Brad's things.
00:17:00We're still to locate his phone for one thing.
00:17:01I see.
00:17:02Problem?
00:17:03No, no.
00:17:04Not at all.
00:17:05There must have been a sale on at the mirror shop.
00:17:07Well, we've got a charger.
00:17:08But still no sign of a phone.
00:17:09Sounds good.
00:17:10I see.
00:17:11Problem?
00:17:12No, no.
00:17:13Not at all.
00:17:14Well, there must have been a sale on at the mirror shop.
00:17:31Well, we've got a charger.
00:17:34But still no sign of a phone.
00:17:36Sounds to me like someone doesn't want it to be found.
00:17:41Dr. Perkins?
00:17:42Hey, Fever.
00:17:43I know the feeling.
00:17:44There you are.
00:17:45Within five yards of a mustard plant.
00:17:48Diamond?
00:17:49Not real this time.
00:17:51That's probably Frankie's, but I'd like to splash out on her.
00:17:55Please remove yourself, Mr. Solanke.
00:17:58I've never seen anything like this.
00:18:00Well, not for real.
00:18:02It's my mum wanting me to do a course in forensics.
00:18:05Will you be done soon?
00:18:06I'm afraid you're asking the wrong person, Mrs. Solanke.
00:18:08Fleur?
00:18:09We're done.
00:18:10For now.
00:18:11For now.
00:18:12For now.
00:18:13For now.

00:18:54For now.
00:18:55For now.
00:18:56For now.
00:18:57For now.
00:19:20What are you doing, Kimamy?
00:19:22It's me.
00:19:23Being you doesn't exonerate you, Sylvia.
00:19:25Brad's just been murdered, for goodness sake.
00:19:27Surely you can be a bit lenient.
00:19:28I'm in shock.
00:19:29Then you shouldn't be out driving in the first place.
00:19:32This isn't just a speeding offence.
00:19:34It's a whole lot more than that.
00:19:36And you know it.
00:19:40Is this you for the rest of your life now?
00:19:43Punishing drivers day and night?
00:19:52I'm closed for the day.
00:20:01Kimony bullet, I take it.
00:20:11The boycott of the flower festival can't be helping business.
00:20:14The village are furious for Sir Alan.
00:20:17He tried to turn a quaint tradition into a corporate cash grab.
00:20:20I heard he doubled the entrance fee.
00:20:22Almost tripled it, if you include having to pay for parking.
00:20:25Oh, which reminds me, I need to make a note of Sylvia's speeding offence.
00:20:30I send them in every Monday, first thing.
00:20:35Noah Connoboy said you took some photos that included the cuckoo clock.
00:20:40Uh...
00:20:45Well, I'll need you to email that to me.
00:20:50Oh, of course.
00:20:56Usually this time of year, there's a queue all the way from the green to get in here.
00:21:00You can't have been happy with Sir Alan.
00:21:02That's an understatement.
00:21:03Yet still, you went to the engagement party.
00:21:08Myrtle and I have been friends for decades.
00:21:10I could hardly let her down on Frankie's big day.
00:21:12Have you sold any of these lately?
00:21:23Who needs a dibbler when there's no flower festival?
00:21:26Thanks to Sir Alan, I couldn't give them away right now.
00:21:29I know a very good jeweller if you want to sell that ring.
00:21:46How could you be so thoughtless?
00:21:48There's no need to bite my head off.
00:21:50We're all trying to process what happened.
00:21:52It's not just you, Frankie.
00:21:54It's a big loss for us as well.
00:21:55This is my pain.
00:21:57It's not yours.
00:21:59Don't you dare try and hijack it.
00:22:00Look, why don't we try to concentrate on the positives?
00:22:03We've got this wonderful festival of wood, thanks to Noah,
00:22:06and we'll have tons of people streaming in,
00:22:08and that's mainly down to Brad.
00:22:10God rest his soul.
00:22:11My word, these people.
00:22:13No one's going to pay to see a freak show.
00:22:15Au contraire, my dear.
00:22:16It'll be the height of popularity.
00:22:18We were in the middle of talking.
00:22:20I'm sorry, dear.
00:22:20I thought you'd said your piece.
00:22:23Why did it have to be Brad that got killed,
00:22:27and not one of you?
00:22:48Hello.
00:22:50Oh, hello again.
00:22:53How can I help?
00:22:54I do flowers for all occasions.
00:22:57A good thing, too.
00:22:58Now we've got a funeral coming up.
00:23:00Oh, God.
00:23:01I didn't think.
00:23:03Don't worry.
00:23:03It's easy.
00:23:04I'm not here about flowers.
00:23:06A little birdie told me you're the head of the village council.
00:23:10Well, someone's got to keep this place in order.
00:23:11Perfect.
00:23:13Because I need to know about the grounds at Godly Manor.
00:23:16Only we were due to put on a festival of wood at Badger's Drift a few weeks back,
00:23:20but the village voted against it,
00:23:22even though we were holding our event on private land.
00:23:26Well, there are a few archaic laws floating around.
00:23:29Alan got me here so quickly I didn't have a chance to check.
00:23:33You're putting on a festival at the manor?
00:23:35He said it was to replace a flower day or something.
00:23:40I see.
00:23:42He thinks it could become a permanent thing if it goes well,
00:23:45which it always does.
00:23:47Noah?
00:23:48Sweetheart.
00:23:50Can we get back now?
00:23:52Yes, yes.
00:23:53Be an angel and find out about those bylaws.
00:23:55Sure.
00:24:02Call me back when you get this.
00:24:04I'm not 100%, but you will not believe who I just saw.
00:24:18I'm getting bad vibes about this place.
00:24:21I think we should pack up and go.
00:24:23And leave my brother at his lowest ebb.
00:24:26You know why you're really here.
00:24:29He's using you.
00:24:31His flower festival isn't happening
00:24:32and he needed something to take its place.
00:24:34I wasn't born yesterday, Des.
00:24:37You're happy to be used?
00:24:39Credit me with some brains.
00:24:41I want something out of this as well.
00:24:42Look around.
00:24:45I'm owed half of this.
00:24:47Noah, you promised me.
00:24:48You said it would be two or three days at the most.
00:24:51That was before we got here.
00:24:53Well, I'm not staying here a second longer than I have to.
00:24:55What's got into you?
00:24:57There's someone who grew up around here.
00:24:58I thought he'd enjoy being back.
00:25:01I hate it here.
00:25:02What?
00:25:03Why would you say that?
00:25:05After this weekend, we are leaving.
00:25:08We are never coming back.
00:25:10I mean it, Noah.
00:25:11Call me back when you get this.
00:25:29I'm not 100%, but you will not believe who I just saw.
00:25:37Kimmy, I just got your message.
00:25:39Oh, my God.
00:25:45Are you sure it's her?
00:25:48I can't.
00:25:48I just can't.
00:25:51Not while there's breath in my body.
00:25:59You're not working today.
00:26:00I blame Winter for running late.
00:26:03Did you know he got dumped last year because he planted some flowers the wrong way?
00:26:06It's the little things in life, John.
00:26:08You've got to get them just right.
00:26:09Don't worry.
00:26:10You're getting there.
00:26:12So, what do you think so far would Grandad approve?
00:26:15If you don't mind me saying it, it looks a bit lopsided.
00:26:18Very funny.
00:26:18Oh, I see where you've been going wrong.
00:26:23Here, look.
00:26:23You've had this upside down.
00:26:25You tear that and you're in big trouble.
00:26:29Oh, Penny!
00:26:30Penny!
00:26:31Oh, Penny!
00:26:32Ow!
00:26:34It's all right.
00:26:35I can dry it off.
00:26:37Look, I will finish that off as soon as I get a moment.
00:26:40Did I mention Carpentry's in my jeans?
00:26:43I'll just grab the first aid box.
00:26:51Tell me what's wrong with this picture, Winter.
00:26:55Cuckoo's the only one that's smiling.
00:26:56Look at the clock.
00:27:00It's not level with the top of the painting.
00:27:02Fleur said it was level with Sir Alan's portrait, but here it's at least four inches lower.
00:27:07So someone moved it.
00:27:08But look who is level with the portrait.
00:27:11Brad.
00:27:12Which most likely means he was the intended target after all.
00:27:17Well, talking of Brad, sir, here's a strange one.
00:27:19Tech managed to get into his laptop, but as far as they could tell, he wasn't doing anything in Bitcoin.
00:27:24Truth is, he barely added a penny to his name.
00:27:27Then how did he pay for Frankie's engagement rate?
00:27:29Well, there's no sign of it in his accounts or credit card statements.
00:27:32Also, we heard back from his mobile phone provider, and they confirmed that his phone was switched off at the time of the murder.
00:27:37Presumably, they sent over a record of his recent calls and texts.
00:27:41Yeah, nothing unusual out of the ordinary.
00:27:46Also, sir, there is this.
00:27:49This was found under Brad's bed at the pub.
00:27:51Now, I presume that it belongs to Frankie, but I think it's worth checking.
00:27:58Did anything come back on Kim and E. Bullitt?
00:28:01Ah, yes.
00:28:02I found out that her husband was killed in a hit and run a year ago.
00:28:05Well, the driver was never traced.
00:28:08Well, that explains the speed gun and her devotion to catching errant drivers.
00:28:12Intriguingly, the hit and run happened on the same day that the flower festival was rained off.
00:28:17And almost exactly a year to the day, Brad Furbank is pecked to death, as Fleur so eloquently put it.
00:28:24If he didn't know that the emeralds and gold were fake, imagine what seeing them might mean to him.
00:28:31Someone who's not only penniless, but also a proven liar.
00:28:35You mean he went there to steal it?
00:28:38Why else would he be there at three in the morning?
00:28:40So someone booby-trapped the bird and then re-hung the clock, knowing that he would come for it.
00:28:44That's exactly what they did, Winter.
00:28:50I'll speak to Frankie.
00:28:52You talk to her sister, Sylvia.
00:28:54I want to find out what they did or didn't know about Brad.
00:28:59And while you're at it, I need a book.
00:29:02A book?
00:29:04On, um, woodwork.
00:29:06My sweet heart, come along, don't you hear the fond song, the sweet note of the nightingale throw?
00:29:19Don't you hear the fond tale of the sweet nightingale, as she sings in those valleys below?
00:29:27Oh, sorry. We don't open until tomorrow. I'm not a visitor.
00:29:41All the same.
00:29:43I'm Frankie.
00:29:45Oh, I mean Francesca, Bruce.
00:29:48Myrtle and Alan's daughter.
00:29:51Oh, I'm so sorry about what happened to your fiancé.
00:29:54Oh.
00:29:58That actually means more than you realise.
00:30:00I'm Nessie, Noah's partner. Were you looking for him?
00:30:03No. I just needed to go on a wander.
00:30:10How long will you be here for?
00:30:12Oh, hopefully just for the weekend, if I can convince Noah.
00:30:17Well, he wants to stay longer.
00:30:18He thinks he can make a permanent home here.
00:30:21Has he told my father that?
00:30:23Doesn't matter if he has.
00:30:24Yes. I'm going to convince him to up sticks.
00:30:27Couldn't hit me with you, could you?
00:30:29That was a joke. Well, sort of.
00:30:33Frankie, if you want to get away, then do it.
00:30:35I did the same myself years ago.
00:30:38Left godly buzzard and never looked back.
00:30:40And now you're the singing stilts, lady.
00:30:44And I can see for miles and miles to the horizon and beyond.
00:30:49I'd love to try that one day.
00:30:54Please?
00:30:54Let's see if you've got a head for heights.
00:31:13Wow.
00:31:14You're right. You can see everything.
00:31:19Frankie, you have a moment.
00:31:22Do me a very large favour, Sylvia.
00:31:30Slap these up everywhere.
00:31:32I'm working.
00:31:33Yes, but you also have a civil duty to assist any knight of the realm whenever he should so request.
00:31:38For God's sake, Dad, you're not a sir.
00:31:41Grandad was the sir.
00:31:42You don't inherit that title.
00:31:43You have to have it bestowed.
00:31:44Yes, well, I was a DIY bestowment.
00:31:47Really shot my bloody ear off, actually.
00:31:49Ah, have you found the culprit?
00:31:50The investigation's still ongoing.
00:31:52Well, chop, chop, because the wonderful Noah's Bar is opening tomorrow morning, 10 a.m. sharp.
00:31:57More questions?
00:32:03Yes.
00:32:04Do you mind if I step inside?
00:32:09Miss Bruce, can you start by telling me what you really thought of Brad?
00:32:14I already made that clear.
00:32:16I liked him.
00:32:17A lot.
00:32:18Presumably you didn't know that he was a con man and a thief.
00:32:21I'm sorry, he was what?
00:32:23We found antihistamine in Brad's room at the pub.
00:32:26It's for hay fever.
00:32:28What sort on earth was he doing showing up at a flower festival?
00:32:31And that makes him a thief?
00:32:33Well, there's a good chance that he was casing the house with the intention of robbing it later.
00:32:37It's a well-known ploy.
00:32:39Stately homes throw open their doors, but they never truly know who they're inviting inside.
00:32:42Brad did nothing of the sort.
00:32:43All he did was meet my sister and fall madly in love.
00:32:46Or he realised that there was more to gain from seducing Frankie and marrying into the family.
00:32:51Please stop.
00:32:53This is awful.
00:32:57I've never seen it before.
00:33:00Where did you find it?
00:33:01It was in Brad's room at the pub.
00:33:08This earring...
00:33:10It doesn't mean he was.
00:33:13No, Brad wouldn't do that to me.
00:33:16How did you meet?
00:33:22It was on the eve of last year's War of the Roses festival.
00:33:25We had a private preview.
00:33:27We ended up talking, so I took him on a tour of the house.
00:33:30He asked to see inside?
00:33:32He seemed really keen.
00:33:34I got the impression he liked me.
00:33:36How much did you know about his Bitcoin business?
00:33:41Only what he told me, but he was doing great.
00:33:44I'm afraid he was lying to you, Frankie.
00:33:46He didn't have a penny to his name.
00:33:48Of course he did.
00:33:50Have you seen this ring?
00:33:51Why would you say that?
00:33:52He was overdrawn and owed money everywhere.
00:33:54No, he was always splashing out on me.
00:33:57You need to get your facts straight.
00:33:59Please don't let this be true.
00:34:11It's been hard enough trying to convince my parents I'm worthy of their love, and now this.
00:34:17Is that all you wanted, only my father's given me a job to do?
00:34:24Were you around when Kim Lee's husband was killed in the hit and run?
00:34:28What's that got to do with what happened to Brad?
00:34:30Well, we're aware that he showed up at Godly Manor the same day that it happened.
00:34:35I remember spotting him with Frankie and wondering who he was, but I didn't give it another thought.
00:34:39Not until she introduced him a few weeks later.
00:34:41I need to get on.
00:34:43Oh, and I need a book.
00:34:47On woodwork.
00:34:57Do you have children, Chief Inspector?
00:35:01A daughter.
00:35:03And you love her, right?
00:35:06You love her with every fibre of your being.
00:35:11Well, can you imagine what it's like when the opposite is true?
00:35:15Can you imagine what that would be like for your daughter?
00:35:20I can't see myself being anything other than in awe of her.
00:35:26That's because you didn't bring her into this world for all the wrong reasons.
00:35:33I had a brother, Chief Inspector.
00:35:36Frances.
00:35:37Well, what I mean when I say I had a brother is he died when he was just over a year old.
00:35:44And I was conceived shortly afterwards, but solely in the hope that my parents could somehow recreate him.
00:35:52Myrtle, it was so long ago.
00:35:57I was probably seeing things.
00:36:01Don't backtrack now.
00:36:03Something made you think you saw Aggie Marlowe.
00:36:05Now, what was it?
00:36:07It was the way she wouldn't look at me.
00:36:09Like she didn't want to be recognised.
00:36:11Perhaps you could have her arrested this time around.
00:36:15Oh, what are you talking about?
00:36:17The police said Frances' death was due to natural causes.
00:36:21There's no arrest happening here.
00:36:23No.
00:36:24Sometimes you have to take things into your own hands.
00:36:28You don't mean that, do you?
00:36:32Mattel?
00:36:32You're scaring me.
00:36:39Apparently, my parents were out at an afternoon due with my grandfather.
00:36:44And when my mother came back, she found Frances dead on the floor.
00:36:47He'd fallen out of his cot.
00:36:49They'd left him on his own?
00:36:50No, they had a babysitter.
00:36:52Aggie Marlowe, but she vanished into thin air.
00:36:55Sylvia said it broke my parents in half.
00:36:57Until one of them had the desperately sad idea of making another Frances.
00:37:03Hence my name.
00:37:06So, they went ahead.
00:37:08And sadly for them, I emerged.
00:37:12And that is when they realised that they couldn't get Frances back.
00:37:16But worse, because they were saddled with someone every day
00:37:20who reminds them that I'm not their precious son.
00:37:27I'm sorry.
00:37:52I'm sorry.
00:38:26The best I could do, sir.
00:38:32Is it for Mrs. B?
00:38:33Thank you, Winter.
00:38:35Yes, Sarah's struggling a bit with the arbor.
00:38:37She even managed to injure her thumb.
00:38:41I'm sure she'd be glad of this.
00:38:43So, did Frankie recognise the earring?
00:38:46In a word, no.
00:38:49Oh, well, that puts a cat among the pigeons.
00:38:51The driver must have been seeing someone else.
00:38:53Yes, Winter.
00:38:57Okay.
00:38:59Yeah, thanks.
00:39:01Sir, we've had an anonymous call for withheld numbers.
00:39:05A woman saying that she's very worried about an Aggie Marlowe being back in Godly Buzzard.
00:39:10We don't know an Aggie Marlowe, do we?
00:39:13I think we do, Winter.
00:39:15The Aggie is short for Agnes, which can also be shortened to Nessie.
00:39:20Perhaps you should go and have a chat with her.
00:39:22I think so.
00:39:24Huh.
00:39:27No.
00:39:28No.
00:39:33No.
00:39:34No.
00:39:35No.
00:39:37No.
00:39:39No.
00:39:39No.
00:39:42No.
00:39:43No.
00:39:46No.
00:39:47Who the hell are you?
00:39:53What are you doing in here?
00:39:55You don't remember.
00:39:59You couldn't keep your hands off me the last time we met.
00:40:03Aggie.
00:40:06This is Frances' room.
00:40:07How dare you?
00:40:10I was looking all over for you, Myrtle.
00:40:12And then I saw Frances' name on the door.
00:40:15And I couldn't help myself.
00:40:17If Myrtle were here, God knows what she would do to you.
00:40:20She's who I came here to see.
00:40:23I'm going to tell her what really happened that day.
00:40:27Noah is dead set on staying here.
00:40:28And the only way I get to stay here with him is if Myrtle and everyone else knows
00:40:32you are the reason why Frances died.
00:40:35As if anyone's going to believe you.
00:40:37And you know what the best thing is?
00:40:39You brought Noah back here.
00:40:41Which means you brought me back here too.
00:40:44Everything comes home to roost eventually.
00:40:45That's enough.
00:40:46I'm not having this.
00:40:47Oh.
00:40:48Ah!
00:40:48Oh, my God.
00:41:18You've joined a library.
00:41:41Oh, Winter borrowed it.
00:41:43He said he thought you might need it.
00:41:46That's so nice of him.
00:41:47I thought we could look through it together.
00:41:50Why would we need to do that?
00:41:52When you've got the blood of a master carpenter running through you.
00:41:55You don't need this.
00:41:56Not when it comes so naturally to you.
00:42:00John wrote to Kenny Splendid.
00:42:09Winter.
00:42:11Impeccable timing.
00:42:13You found Nessie.
00:42:14What does she say?
00:42:17I'll be right there.
00:42:29A little bird tells me, not a cuckoo this time, you were looking for Agnes Marlon.
00:42:35The good news is you found her, but the bad news is someone else found her first.
00:42:41Talk us through it, Fleur.
00:42:43Judging from the angle of the attack, I'd say she was approached from behind, and the billhook did the rest.
00:42:50The what?
00:42:51Billhook, Winter.
00:42:52It's a highly versatile cutting tool.
00:42:54My grandfather had one.
00:42:56Same sort of tool you might find in Noah's bark.
00:42:58You look ten percent more handsome when you say something intelligent.
00:43:02I'll have to set you brain teasers up the percentage.
00:43:06Time of death, Fleur?
00:43:08I'd put it somewhere yesterday evening.
00:43:11And the killer just left the weapon lying around?
00:43:12It was stuffed behind that fallen log over there.
00:43:15Well, I'd start with Noah.
00:43:20Before you lope off, she was carrying this.
00:43:24But I wouldn't get too excited.
00:43:26I don't think he's the killer.
00:43:27What the hell?
00:43:34They're not letting the public in.
00:43:36Well, what did you expect?
00:43:38Aggie Marlowe was murdered last night.
00:43:40Yes, that person was a blight on our family.
00:43:43Yes, and of course, we know who brought her here, don't we?
00:43:46Now, Noah couldn't have possibly known who she was.
00:43:48How do we know that?
00:43:50I don't trust a thing about him.
00:43:51Ever since he arrived, terrible things have happened.
00:43:54Is it really that terrible that Aggie's dead?
00:43:55You know full well what I mean.
00:43:57I want him gone, Alan.
00:44:05Lucy and I were together for years.
00:44:09I saw her at a folk festival.
00:44:14She was the most beautiful girl I'd ever set eyes on.
00:44:18We started chatting and realized we'd both lived in godly buzzard once.
00:44:24From that point on, we never left each other's side.
00:44:27Ended up creating all this.
00:44:31Did you know that Nessie had changed her name from Aggie?
00:44:35Aggie?
00:44:36No.
00:44:38She was always Nessie to me.
00:44:39Well, she never mentioned that she used to babysit for the Bruises.
00:44:42She never said a word.
00:44:43How did she react after Brad found you?
00:44:50To be honest, she didn't want me to come here.
00:44:55When we pitched up, she got pretty nervy.
00:44:58She even had a nightmare the first night we stayed here.
00:45:01Had to get up and go for a wonder.
00:45:03Nessie said she never went up to the house, but did she encounter any of the Bruises other
00:45:09than Frankie?
00:45:10Not that I know of.
00:45:12Can you tell us where you were yesterday evening, Mr. Connoboy?
00:45:16Don't even go there.
00:45:22Nessie was the love of my life.
00:45:26Mr. Connoboy.
00:45:30I was at the pub with Angel.
00:45:37We just finished setting up and deserved a pint or two.
00:45:41Did you say Angel?
00:45:42The axe man.
00:45:44He looks ferocious, but underneath he's a kitten.
00:45:48We believe that a tool from your troop was used in the attack on Nessie.
00:45:53A billhook.
00:45:57Is there one missing?
00:45:58I'd have to ask you around.
00:46:02Anyone could come in and take anything.
00:46:05It's not like we'd lock anything away.
00:46:23Saj, what are you doing?
00:46:35Waiting for you to join me.
00:46:38Here.
00:46:39I don't understand.
00:46:43I want to make a toast to Brad.
00:46:46He lived there for a year and I'm going to miss him.
00:46:49Saj, you may as well know, the police are saying he was a con man.
00:46:53No way.
00:46:54A con man?
00:46:55Did you know or ever get a sense of it?
00:46:58Like you said, he was here a whole year.
00:47:00Me?
00:47:01Nah.
00:47:02Poor Frankie.
00:47:04Are you sure you didn't know?
00:47:06Are you sure you didn't?
00:47:07What does that mean?
00:47:09I don't know.
00:47:10I always thought you had about a thing for him.
00:47:12A thing?
00:47:13What thing?
00:47:14Why would you say that?
00:47:15Well, you're always so keen on him, always bigging him up.
00:47:18Well, says he's number one fan.
00:47:20That wasn't me.
00:47:21No way.
00:47:22You've fawned all over him.
00:47:23In fact, you changed personality whenever he was around.
00:47:26Aye, well, maybe it's a good thing he's not around anymore, eh?
00:47:30Look at this.
00:47:37This is crazy.
00:47:38None of this matters now he's gone.
00:47:42I'm sorry.
00:47:44I didn't mean to say any of that.
00:47:47Same.
00:47:49Normal service has resumed.
00:47:55Best make a different toast, hm?
00:47:57Hm?
00:47:58Out with the bad and all that.
00:48:02Ah.
00:48:03Out with the brad, more like.
00:48:09What was Nessie doing out here on her own?
00:48:11Maybe she was meeting someone.
00:48:13What, with a teddy bear?
00:48:14Hm.
00:48:15I'll get tech to check out her phone calls and texts.
00:48:19Also, have them chase up the anonymous tip about Aggie Marlow
00:48:25being back in the village.
00:48:26She was killed almost immediately afterwards, so whoever
00:48:28called us was really worried.
00:48:30Do you think one of the bruises found out she was back?
00:48:33I'll go and see.
00:48:39This is the last place I saw Francis alive.
00:48:41I gave him a cuddle before Alan and I took Sir Percival to a party.
00:48:45I'll never forgive myself for leaving him.
00:48:49And when you returned home?
00:48:52Uh, I stayed longer than planned.
00:48:55That was Kim in his fault.
00:48:56She can chat for England.
00:48:57Alan had wandered off ages before.
00:49:00When I got back, there was no sign of Aggie anywhere.
00:49:04And then I found Francis lying right there, not moving.
00:49:16Lady Myrtle, did you know that, um, Aggie Marlow was living on your grounds with Noah?
00:49:21Of course I didn't.
00:49:23You never met or saw her?
00:49:25I just said, I didn't know she was back.
00:49:28And trust me, if I had, Aggie would have been dead a lot sooner.
00:49:33I want that woman's body off our land.
00:49:36You know what she did to Myrtle and I?
00:49:40Where were you last night?
00:49:41Are you listening to me, Barnaby?
00:49:44It's Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby.
00:49:47I was in my bed getting my beauty sleep in preparation for the grand opening,
00:49:51which actually won't be remotely grand now, thanks to Aggie Marlow.
00:49:56Were you aware that she was part of Noah's bar?
00:49:59What on earth are you talking about?
00:50:00Well, it turns out she was Noah's partner, had been for years.
00:50:03My God, you couldn't make it up.
00:50:05Now, Brad didn't happen to find that out when he was searching for Noah.
00:50:08Would I have invited him here, if you had?
00:50:10If you wanted revenge for Francis, then yes, that's exactly what you would have done.
00:50:15Look, I invited Noah here simply to raise some cash.
00:50:19My father didn't exactly leave a pot of gold in his will,
00:50:22and these stately homes cost a fortune to maintain.
00:50:25On the outside, it looks like we've won the lottery.
00:50:26On the inside, we can barely afford a ticket.
00:50:29Well, there's still the house and grounds, though.
00:50:31And surely you knew that finding Noah could result in you
00:50:34having to hand over half of everything you'd inherited.
00:50:37You've met him?
00:50:38He's a hippie.
00:50:39They don't belong in houses like this.
00:50:41Anyway, he'll drift away soon enough.
00:50:43Did Brad know you were struggling financially?
00:50:47I admit, I was a little too keen to get Noah here,
00:50:50and someone like Brad might have noted that.
00:50:53Someone like Brad?
00:50:55He was a parasite.
00:50:56I didn't realize at first, but he was a tapeworm eating his way into our family.
00:51:06Sir?
00:51:09I called Saj Solanki, and he said that he remembers seeing Noah and the Axeman in the pub.
00:51:13It seems the Bruce's both had a strong motive for killing Nessie,
00:51:19and Sir Alan had an inkling that Brad wasn't the person he claimed to be.
00:51:24Talking of Brad, we know that he was desperate for money to keep up his lies and lifestyle,
00:51:29so all it would take is for his killer to know that as well.
00:51:33What about the person the diamond earring belongs to?
00:51:37It could be some kind of love rat thing.
00:51:39Elegantly put, Winter.
00:51:41Or Frankie found out that Brad was cheating on her and killed him in a fit of jealousy.
00:51:44I'm sure that's possible in your love rat world.
00:51:46She was also the only member of the Bruce family that we know for certain met Nessie.
00:51:50Ah, and you were doing so well, Winter.
00:51:52But Frankie hadn't been born when Nessie was babysitting for the Bruce's.
00:51:57It's doubtful she'd know her on-site.
00:51:59Here's a question for you.
00:52:01How does a penniless man rent a room in a pub for an entire year?
00:52:09Look, Kimmy won't report you for speeding.
00:52:22There are mitigating circumstances just like you told her.
00:52:24You know what she's like.
00:52:26She takes her misery out on anyone she can find.
00:52:28I can't have points on my license.
00:52:31I could lose my job.
00:52:32Well, come work here then.
00:52:34You'd probably earn more.
00:52:35If this world of woodenness takes off, this place will be packed.
00:52:39It's not the money.
00:52:41I happen to love that job.
00:52:42Mr. Solanke, a word if you don't mind.
00:52:48I thought you were all done here.
00:52:50How did Brad pay for his room and board?
00:52:52Like anyone else?
00:52:53He was penniless, Mr. Solanke.
00:52:56We can just go through your books.
00:52:58Right, well, the thing is, hindsight's a great thing, right?
00:53:03But I kind of let Brad run up a tab.
00:53:07For an entire year?
00:53:09He was a nice guy.
00:53:10I totally trusted him.
00:53:12Tell them, Sylvia.
00:53:13You were always urging Frankie to marry Emma.
00:53:15Who yielded on that?
00:53:17Well, we have you.
00:53:19We found this in Brad's room.
00:53:22Have you ever seen that before?
00:53:24No, sorry.
00:53:26Did Brad ever have anyone other than Frankie back to his room?
00:53:28No, not that I ever saw.
00:53:30Fleur?
00:53:32Believe it or not, we're at the pub right now.
00:53:39We're going to need access to Brad's room again.
00:53:44It'll be fine.
00:53:44Don't worry.
00:53:45Oh, Noah.
00:54:03I'm so sorry.
00:54:04I just heard about Aggie.
00:54:07Aggie?
00:54:08I meant Nessie.
00:54:10You must be devastated.
00:54:11That answers everything.
00:54:16She called herself Nessie, yet you just called her Aggie.
00:54:22I know your big pals with Myrtle, my charming sister-in-law.
00:54:26Did you do the family a favor and tell them who Nessie really was?
00:54:30I think you should leave.
00:54:31I think.
00:54:34I should go to the police, don't you?
00:54:36What is it called?
00:54:38Accessory to murder?
00:54:39Go on, then.
00:54:41I've done nothing wrong.
00:54:43I'll tell them you clearly recognized her, and they'll realize you're the only one who knew who she was.
00:54:51Why are you here?
00:54:54What do you want from me?
00:54:55That's better.
00:54:57I know I got permission to put on my festival, but what if I wanted to set up home there permanently with all my people?
00:55:05That's something else entirely.
00:55:07You're the head of the council.
00:55:09I'm sure you could make it happen.
00:55:10They already hate Sir Alan.
00:55:11I doubt they'd be too fond of you for riding to his rescue.
00:55:14We're talking about my home.
00:55:16A home I've been denied for far too long, so make it happen.
00:55:22What if I can't?
00:55:23This is my birthright, and I'm not going to let anyone stand in the way of that.
00:55:42What are you doing?
00:55:47What's that for?
00:55:48Care to explain, Mr. Sloanke?
00:55:51No idea.
00:55:53I was already there when I started running the police.
00:55:56Shall I keep going?
00:55:57Where is this leading, Fleur?
00:55:58I worked on a similar case once.
00:56:00There were mirrors all over the walls in that place as well.
00:56:02Clearly, the idea took off.
00:56:05When I first encountered this sort of thing, my boss told me to touch the mirrors with my fingernail.
00:56:10And my fingernail touched its reflection.
00:56:13What else would it touch?
00:56:15Index finger, please, Winter.
00:56:18I promise not to bite.
00:56:22If it were a normal mirror, your fingernail and its reflection would never meet.
00:56:27There'll always be a gap, like so.
00:56:30But with a two-way mirror,
00:56:33finger touch his finger.
00:56:37And they're in every room, aren't they, Mr. Sloanke?
00:56:48It's for security purposes.
00:56:52Try again, Mr. Sloanke.
00:56:56Look, a lot of people book into hotels and not just to sleep.
00:57:01They meet up with lovers. Some of them do secret deals.
00:57:04I've heard them on the phone lying about their whereabouts. The list goes on.
00:57:09Half the people that come in here are up to no good.
00:57:11So you thought you'd make some money out of it.
00:57:15When did Brad find out you were doing this?
00:57:18First night he stayed. He accidentally knocked over the mirror onto the floor and he saw the camera behind it.
00:57:23But he didn't report you?
00:57:25He told me to lose the cameras in his room, but keep the rest in the other rooms.
00:57:29He wanted in on it. In fact, he took over.
00:57:32He made me blackmail everyone that I could.
00:57:35And for the last year he's lived here rent free in exchange for his silence.
00:57:39He's bled me dry in every way you can imagine.
00:57:42Including forcing you to buy Frankie's engagement ring.
00:57:46Well, how do you know that?
00:57:48We didn't until now.
00:57:50We'll need to look into Mr. Sloanke's finances.
00:57:55Am I going to prison for this?
00:57:56At the moment, I'm more interested in who Brad was seeing behind Frankie's back.
00:58:01Well, he wasn't seeing anyone.
00:58:03You're in enough trouble as it is, Mr. Sloanke.
00:58:06I couldn't see anything before because then you'd come back and ask for proof and then you'd...
00:58:11Find out what you've been doing.
00:58:14She used to come in the back way.
00:58:16Obviously didn't know I had a hidden camera outside, but it was...
00:58:19Sylvia Bruce.
00:58:21Sylvia? No.
00:58:23It was her mum, Myrtle.
00:58:26It was her mum.
00:58:35Look at these idiots, sir.
00:58:49She can't give me a ticket.
00:58:52This is official police business.
00:58:53So's this.
00:58:54Just so you know, you can pass on my information, but it'll be up to the police if they decide to prosecute or not.
00:58:59And well, I am the police.
00:59:03Well, we'll find out on Monday when I send in my data whether that helps or not.
00:59:08When will you ever learn, Cordelia, it's not 30 miles an hour through the village.
00:59:17And don't think you can get away with this at night either.
00:59:20I'm on guard, 24-7.
00:59:22Sorry, Kimberly.
00:59:25I'll go halves on the final.
00:59:26It's fine.
00:59:27I can't.
00:59:28Someone needs to take that speed gun off her.
00:59:31Drive on, Winter.
00:59:33Slowly.
00:59:33Would you like to know where we found this?
00:59:46You should know that Brad never loved Frankie.
00:59:53I mean, how could he?
00:59:55She's quite unlovable.
00:59:56Alan and I tried for years.
00:59:59When did you and Brad start seeing each other?
01:00:02Months ago.
01:00:03I rather felt for him.
01:00:05All that pretending he had to do.
01:00:07So the affair was still going on even at the engagement party.
01:00:10Did Sir Alan know?
01:00:11Doesn't matter if he did or he didn't.
01:00:13He disappeared the night Francis died.
01:00:16There's more life in his portrait.
01:00:18When did you last see Brad?
01:00:20When he was lying dead in our hallway.
01:00:22Lady Myrtle?
01:00:24At the engagement party.
01:00:26And you were never worried that Saj would see you at the pub and tell Frankie?
01:00:29I didn't go there often and Brad seemed to have some hold over Saj.
01:00:34She said he wouldn't say a word if he knew what was good for him.
01:00:37Sadly for you, he can say whatever he wants now.
01:00:39What are you talking about?
01:00:41Saj has CCTV footage of you two arguing outside his pub the day before Brad died.
01:00:46What was the argument about?
01:00:49He'd found out that Alan and I aren't exactly wealthy.
01:00:52He was furious.
01:00:53He said I'd been leading him on.
01:00:55Did he break up with you?
01:00:56He threatened to.
01:00:57How did you feel about that?
01:00:58How do you think?
01:00:59Did you get the dibbler from Kim and his shop?
01:01:02Pull in to see her and slip one into your pocket?
01:01:05I wouldn't know a dibbler from a punch on the nose.
01:01:08And then you rigged the clock?
01:01:09Oh, this is ridiculous.
01:01:10Murder very often is Lady Myrtle.
01:01:13You're not going to bring Lady Myrtle in, sir?
01:01:18Sir Alan has already given her an alibi for the night Brad was killed.
01:01:21We need something concrete.
01:01:24Dear Swinter.
01:01:26Oh, okay.
01:01:26That was quick.
01:01:28Thanks.
01:01:28Sir, Tech have managed to trace the anonymous call regarding Aggie Marlowe.
01:01:34It was from Kimony Bullet.
01:01:35Oh, of course it was.
01:01:38We already know she likes to share her findings with the police.
01:01:42Hop over to her shop and find out if she told anyone else.
01:01:45She was obviously worried about what might happen.
01:02:00as well as the police.
01:02:09Hello?
01:02:14You could have put somewhere more accessible.
01:02:18I never liked that hill.
01:02:19I could have put somewhere more accessible.
01:02:22I never liked that hill.
01:02:25There you are.
01:02:48Let me just catch my breath.
01:02:55Let me just catch my breath.
01:03:25Let me just catch my breath.
01:03:35How's your thumb?
01:03:36Throbbing.
01:03:40Do you really think you can put that arbor together?
01:03:43Only I don't want it suddenly collapsing on Betty or her friends or on me, for that matter.
01:03:48That arbor will still be standing a hundred years from now.
01:03:52A monument to the inherited skills of a master craftsman.
01:03:57Right.
01:03:58Winter.
01:03:59Winter.
01:04:00Winter.
01:04:04Winter.
01:04:06Winter.
01:04:08Winter.
01:04:09What's that around her mouth?
01:04:26Blair thinks it's some kind of industrial wood glue.
01:04:28Super strong.
01:04:29I'm afraid her lips are sealed, so I'll have to talk for her.
01:04:33It looks like someone stuck her to the chair, and then, if I'm right, they force-fed her with whatever was left in the glue gun.
01:04:41That's also covered in glue.
01:04:43Whoever it was tried to make it cozy and inviting.
01:04:46If only.
01:04:49Any idea where the chairs came from?
01:04:51Judging from the finish, I'd say a craftsman, by that.
01:05:09Would you like a ticket?
01:05:10I'm afraid Kim and E. Bullock was killed sometime last night.
01:05:33My God.
01:05:34I was wondering what had happened.
01:05:37Were you at the house?
01:05:39No.
01:05:40I stayed here last night.
01:05:42Noah's a bit lost right now, obviously, so I thought I could be there for him.
01:05:47You didn't see or hear anything?
01:05:49No.
01:05:51Sorry.
01:05:52This is awful.
01:05:54I've known Kim and E my whole life.
01:05:59Excuse me.
01:06:00Wood is so much more than we think it is.
01:06:21It has sheltered us, defended us, given up its body to us.
01:06:27Yes, she came up with that.
01:06:28Yes, she came up with that.
01:06:30All of this was her idea.
01:06:32Show people how much they can learn and benefit from nature.
01:06:36And turn it into furniture, namely a pair of chairs.
01:06:41If you're looking to pin this on me, anyone could have come in here.
01:06:45You really shouldn't try locking things away, Mr. Connoboy.
01:06:46Someone needs to go and tell the crowds we won't be opening any time soon.
01:06:52They'll have to come back next year.
01:06:54You're planning on returning?
01:06:56You're planning on returning?
01:06:57I'm not actually planning on leaving.
01:07:01I was born here.
01:07:02Nessie was born here.
01:07:05I belong here.
01:07:06Hi, sir.
01:07:07Yeah, I'm in Kim and E's shop.
01:07:08Someone has been in here and looks like they've smashed up our laptop.
01:07:24Is there anyone Kim and E might have upset recently?
01:07:36If there was, she didn't tell me.
01:07:40We know she left an anonymous tip-off about Aggie Marlowe being back in Godly Buzzard.
01:07:45Did she happen to tell you as well?
01:07:47As I've already said, that wouldn't have gone well for Aggie.
01:07:50Is that why Kim and E decided to contact us?
01:07:53When you met her, she spent half her life contacting the police.
01:07:58Talking of which, did she ever mention the hit and run?
01:08:01Only to the point of boredom.
01:08:02More recently, I mean, as in had she found out who killed her husband?
01:08:06No.
01:08:07She'd have said.
01:08:08In fact, she'd have screamed it from the rooftops.
01:08:12We know that Brad checked into Saj's pub on the same night that Kim and E's husband was killed.
01:08:18Before you fall down that rabbit hole, Brad got a puncture up at the house and walked down to the village.
01:08:24He couldn't have run anyone over, let alone Kim and his husband.
01:08:27I don't suppose I could have Francis's teddy.
01:08:34Only Kim and E bought that for him.
01:08:36It feels so wrong that Aggie took it.
01:08:38How did you know about the teddy bear?
01:08:43We deliberately withheld that information.
01:08:46Alan told me he must have let it slip, Chief Inspector.
01:09:01Charles, how good of you to call.
01:09:04Now, I may need you to sue the police for loss of earnings.
01:09:09Yes, that's right, the police.
01:09:11I'll send you an email with all the details.
01:09:13Speak soon.
01:09:14Well, that should shrink your annual budget.
01:09:18How did you know about Aggie Marlowe taking Francis's teddy bear?
01:09:23You told your wife, remember?
01:09:25Well, I probably picked it up off of one of you lot.
01:09:28Aggie must have gone up to Francis's room.
01:09:32I think you saw her.
01:09:34You're an absolute balderdash.
01:09:35Why would she go up there?
01:09:37I didn't know she had.
01:09:38It seems a strange place to return to, considering the circumstances.
01:09:42Or was she coming to see you and Lady Myrtle?
01:09:45I very much doubt it.
01:09:47She'd been avoiding being seen, yet she felt confident enough to come to the house.
01:09:53The place where she'd apparently left a child to die.
01:09:56I'm afraid I can't answer for her actions.
01:09:59I happen to think you can.
01:10:01What really happened on the day your son died?
01:10:04I'd really rather not go back there.
01:10:05It's still exceedingly raw, even after all these years.
01:10:08I know that you and your wife went to a party with your father.
01:10:14She said that she came back alone, which implies that either you were still at the party, or you'd already left.
01:10:22No, I stayed till the bitter end.
01:10:23Then you would have seen both Lady Myrtle and Kimmy, because they stayed late as well.
01:10:29You've spent a long time living with this, Sir Alan.
01:10:38She was extremely attractive back then.
01:10:44And I was only a little older than her.
01:10:47In your eyes, perhaps?
01:10:50And I'd been drinking.
01:10:52And you know, sometimes on those odd occasions when you have a romantic thought, and then that thought becomes a possibility,
01:10:59and then before you know where you are, it's a cast-iron certainty.
01:11:02And I was Sir Percival's son.
01:11:04How could she not be impressed?
01:11:06But Aggie wasn't impressed, was she?
01:11:08Well, she tried to be polite, and I went along with it at first, but then I said we hadn't got much time,
01:11:13and perhaps we should move things forward.
01:11:15Well, she was appalled.
01:11:18Said she wanted to go and check on Francis.
01:11:21He was crying, and I stopped her.
01:11:25I didn't let her see him.
01:11:27For how long?
01:11:29Well, I thought I heard a thump, or a thud, or something, but I just ignored it, because I had other things on my mind.
01:11:38And Aggie heard it too, and told me to open the door.
01:11:42She said it over and over again, and when I refused, she slapped me, and then she dodged by me.
01:11:46And her first thought was to go and check on Francis.
01:11:49And that's when I heard her scream.
01:11:52And by the time you got there?
01:11:56Well, to my eternal shame, I blamed her.
01:12:00I said it was all her fault, and that I would see her locked up for life.
01:12:06So she ran, knowing that no one would believe her word against yours, the son of Sir Percival Bruce.
01:12:14She came to see me a few nights ago.
01:12:18She told me she was going to tell Myrtle the truth.
01:12:20Well, everybody, in fact.
01:12:22Why now, after all this time?
01:12:24Well, Noah wants to set up permanent residence on the grounds.
01:12:27But I didn't kill her, I swear.
01:12:29I didn't even try to get that damn Teddy back.
01:12:32I just stood there, frozen, in this pathetic excuse that I call my life.
01:12:48Winter.
01:12:49Sir, I looked into Saj's financials, like you said, and the odd thing was that Sylvia paid for Brad's room the night he turned up in Godly Buzzard.
01:13:07But she said that she didn't meet him that day.
01:13:09I think we'd better talk to her.
01:13:11Also, Fleur's tech team found a smudge of blue ink on Kimini's laptop.
01:13:15It was only tiny, but she's going to run it.
01:13:17Tell her there's no need.
01:13:18Yeah, I already have, sir.
01:13:20Because it's probably from the stamp that Sylvia uses in her library.
01:13:23You won't jump ahead of me, Winter.
01:13:24There is a first time for everything, sir.
01:13:26You should get a bonus for all the things you've taught me.
01:13:30Didn't tech have any luck with Kimini's laptop?
01:13:33They managed to retrieve most of the data.
01:13:35It was just the speeding reports that she'd been filing.
01:13:38Can I see?
01:13:39Hmm.
01:13:42I should go and talk to her before she heads off.
01:13:52Sylvia, I wanted to ask.
01:13:53Why did you pay for Brad's room the night that the flower festival was rained off?
01:13:58You said that you hadn't met him that day.
01:14:01Sylvia!
01:14:04Sylvia!
01:14:08Put your foot down, Winter.
01:14:10Put your foot down, Winter.
01:14:26Can't get around her, sir.
01:14:27See if there's somewhere to pass up her head.
01:14:29Stop following me!
01:14:32What's she doing? Where's she going?
01:14:33She's on her way to Godly Manor.
01:14:38You can't go and live with that excuse for an uncle.
01:14:40I can do what the hell I like.
01:14:42Noah's going to try and take all of this from us.
01:14:44Not just the grounds he wants.
01:14:45He'll come for his share of the house.
01:14:47And you think I'm on your side?
01:14:49I hope he gets the lot.
01:14:50Frankie.
01:14:51Frankie!
01:14:52She's headed for the gate, sir.
01:14:53She's going to go straight through them, sir.
01:14:54Frankie!
01:14:55No!
01:14:56No!
01:14:57No!
01:14:58No!
01:14:59No!
01:15:00No!
01:15:01No!
01:15:02No!
01:15:03No!
01:15:04No!
01:15:05No!
01:15:06No!
01:15:07No!
01:15:08No!
01:15:09No!
01:15:10No!
01:15:11No!
01:15:12No!
01:15:13No!
01:15:14No!
01:15:15No!
01:15:16No!
01:15:17No!
01:15:18No!
01:15:19No!
01:15:20Silvia!
01:15:21What are you doing?
01:15:22They know.
01:15:23Know what?
01:15:24What I did.
01:15:25Put yourself together, Silvia.
01:15:26I killed him, Mother.
01:15:28I killed him.
01:15:34What the hell is going on?
01:15:36He's shaking like a leaf.
01:15:38Silvia, I don't understand.
01:15:43Ask them.
01:15:44They know.
01:15:45Stop saying that.
01:15:46Will somebody talk to me?
01:15:48Well, tell them, then.
01:15:49Tell them what I did.
01:15:50I'd rather hear it from you, Silvia.
01:15:56I didn't see him.
01:15:58The road was empty one minute the next.
01:16:00He was just standing there right in front of me.
01:16:03Who is she talking about?
01:16:05Jiminy Bullitt's husband, Lawrence.
01:16:07What?
01:16:08Silvia?
01:16:09Right.
01:16:10Don't say another word.
01:16:11Alan, call your solicitor.
01:16:12Tell us what happened, Silvia.
01:16:14Leave my daughter alone.
01:16:15Alan, call Charles now!
01:16:17Josh!
01:16:18I didn't think anyone had seen me, so I drove off, not knowing what to do.
01:16:24I was in such a state, though.
01:16:26I had to pull over, thought I was going to be sick.
01:16:28A few minutes later, there was a tap on the side of the library.
01:16:32Brad had seen what you'd done.
01:16:34You made me pay for his room at Sasha's pub.
01:16:37He was really after something else.
01:16:40I'm so sorry.
01:16:43I'm so sorry.
01:16:45He wanted to be in the manor.
01:16:48He wanted a portrait of his own.
01:16:49He wanted it all.
01:16:50So he told me I had to make sure you married him.
01:16:53Doesn't anyone want me for who I am?
01:16:57I know.
01:16:58I know, and I hated him so much for it.
01:17:01I wanted to rescue you, Frankie.
01:17:02I wanted so many things.
01:17:04Winter?
01:17:05As I learned at great cost last year, there are certain perennials that shouldn't be planted next to each other.
01:17:09Kimony would know that better than anyone.
01:17:12I think they found Brad's phone.
01:17:14I'm on it, no doubt.
01:17:15We'll find out why it had to be buried.
01:17:17Mm-hmm.
01:17:18Am I right, Frankie?
01:17:21I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:17:26I know it was you who smashed up Kimony's laptop.
01:17:29Me?
01:17:30I had no idea that even happened.
01:17:31I saw a list of number plates on a document that Kimony was putting together.
01:17:36Your friend Cordelia's number plate was on it along with a date and time.
01:17:40Then talk to Cordelia, not me.
01:17:42Ironically, that was actually the very thing you were trying to prevent.
01:17:46When will you ever learn, Cordelia?
01:17:49It's not 30 miles an hour through the village.
01:17:51And don't think you can get away with this at night, either.
01:17:54I'm on guard 24-7.
01:17:56You took Cordelia's car after everyone had passed out after your celebrations.
01:18:01You drove it up here, not thinking for a minute that Kimony would still be out monitoring the roads.
01:18:07She was going to post her findings on Monday,
01:18:09and the moment Cordelia received her speeding notice, she would have questioned it.
01:18:14You couldn't have that happen, Frankie.
01:18:19Is this true?
01:18:20Not a word of it.
01:18:21And who stays up half the night looking for speeders?
01:18:24Kimony did.
01:18:25She was heartbroken after Laurence.
01:18:27She couldn't sleep or find peace anywhere.
01:18:29We know that the cuckoo clock had been moved high enough to kill Brad.
01:18:34And who would have known Brad's height better than you?
01:18:37Try my mother.
01:18:38She seemed to have spent a lot of time with him.
01:18:41Yes, mother, I knew that earring was yours.
01:18:44Would you like to tell us what's on the phone, Frankie?
01:18:48It won't take us long to access it.
01:18:50It was the look on his face that did it.
01:18:51It was this look of pure and utter greed.
01:19:00I knew what he was thinking.
01:19:01So I sent him a message.
01:19:02Why don't we steal the clock and run away together?
01:19:03He agreed.
01:19:04Said we should do it after things had died down.
01:19:05But you came up here and rigged the clock.
01:19:06Because I knew he was lying.
01:19:07He wanted it all for himself.
01:19:08He wanted it all for himself.
01:19:09I hoped I was wrong.
01:19:10But sometimes you just know.
01:19:11But sometimes you just know.
01:19:12It was the look on his face that did it.
01:19:13It was this look of pure and utter greed.
01:19:16I knew what he was thinking.
01:19:19So I sent him a message.
01:19:21Why don't we steal the clock and run away together?
01:19:24He agreed.
01:19:26Said we should do it after things had died down.
01:19:28But you came up here and rigged the clock.
01:19:30Because I knew he was lying.
01:19:32He wanted it all for himself.
01:19:35I hoped I was wrong.
01:19:37But sometimes you just know.
01:19:39It was horrible to watch.
01:20:00How did you know that Brad would be there at the right time?
01:20:02I didn't matter what time it was.
01:20:05Frankie knew Brad would turn the hour hands to get the cuckoo to come out regardless.
01:20:12Tell me about Nessie.
01:20:14Presumably you saw her up at the house.
01:20:16Kimberly, I just got your message.
01:20:19Oh my God.
01:20:21Are you sure it's her?
01:20:24I can't.
01:20:26I just can't.
01:20:27Not while there's breath in my body.
01:20:29I hadn't a clue who my mother was talking about.
01:20:32Until you realized there was only one person your mother could hate that much.
01:20:36Aggie Marlowe.
01:20:38And there she was.
01:20:40Carrying Francis' teddy.
01:20:42So you took revenge for your brother.
01:20:44How could I not?
01:20:46She's responsible for this nightmare I call my life.
01:20:50Only she wasn't.
01:20:52What?
01:20:53I suggest you speak to Sir Alan about that.
01:20:58I'm curious about the blue ink on Kim and his laptop.
01:21:01Presumably you wanted to throw us off the trail.
01:21:06Sorry sis.
01:21:08You all but forced me into loving Brad.
01:21:10It was his doing, not mine.
01:21:12But I didn't know that, did I?
01:21:14I believed every word he said.
01:21:16I'm your sister.
01:21:17I was put in a horrible position.
01:21:18Well you want to know about horrible positions?
01:21:21Try killing three people.
01:21:23Most people would have just called off the engagement.
01:21:25Blame them.
01:21:26They made me that way.
01:21:28I grew up being rejected for not being what they desperately wanted.
01:21:31And there I was again.
01:21:33Not being what Brad wanted.
01:21:35What's a girl to do?
01:21:40Though I rather hoped.
01:21:44I was always one step ahead of you.
01:21:46If it's any consolation, you were.
01:21:49But you always saw the wood despite the trees.
01:21:54How ironic.
01:21:59I don't understand you, Frankie.
01:22:03How are you saying all these things?
01:22:05As if you didn't have a care in the world.
01:22:07Because I learnt from the worst.
01:22:09If only you and father had wanted me.
01:22:12It's just a simple little thing.
01:22:14Like loving a child.
01:22:16But it was beyond both of you.
01:22:24I hope your daughter turns out to be everything you could hope for.
01:22:49That's it.
01:22:50Almost there.
01:22:53He's doing a grand job.
01:22:54He is.
01:22:55And I have to say, I am deeply impressed.
01:22:59Do you know pergolas and arbors date back to early Egyptian times?
01:23:04Really that fun?
01:23:05In some societies there were actually status symbols.
01:23:08Well, the Barnabys are going up in the world.
01:23:11I'd have had that up an hour ago.
01:23:14You'd be moaning about having a strained back by now.
01:23:17I'm just saying, it would have taken me half the time.
01:23:19Don't listen to them, Winther.
01:23:21You're doing a fine job.
01:23:26A very fine job, indeed.
