- Fiona's been offered a job in Aberdeen. I don't want this to be the end of us. - Neither do I.
I'm setting up a new task force to investigate honour killings and I'd like you to lead it.
The truth is that you were devastated by your mother's death,
you were furious with Jason Hemway and you went over there and you bludgeoned him to death.
You can't keep me here.
Hey, we haven't finished talking yet! We can't arrest her, can we?
She's going to do a runner.
Angela Morris, I'm placing you under arrest.
- I'm going to say no to your offer. - Can't say I'm not disappointed.
Thank you.

Well, whoever said if you're tired of London, you're tired of life
had clearly never stood here in the morning rush hour.
Samuel Johnson, 20th September, 1777.
- There is in London all that life can afford. - Not with our salary, pal.
- Morning, boys. - Sasha, great. Where are we heading?
- To The Madhouse. - The Madhouse? We'll fit right in(!)
December 31st, 1999. Remember it?
Well, not the latter stages
or the rest of the following week, come to think of it.
Some Hogmanay that was. Edinburgh Castle,
200,000 of us, five tonnes of fireworks. Spectacular!
I was at a trance techno rave in Ibiza.
What?
No, all right, then. A quiet night in with Sarah
and Holly listening to Miles Davis.
I was worried about the world coming to an end.
Once I realised it hadn't,
I made a resolution never to stress about it again.
Well, you stuck to that, then.
I was on nights, working.
Well, somebody had to, what with you lot all partying.
Talking of which,
The Madhouse cafe and drop-in centre,
now a thriving hub that supports people with mental health issues.
Then it was just the dream of a group of mental health reformers
calling themselves Mad For It.
- Catchy. - Mm.
They launched this place that night with a party celebrating madness.
Now, just after midnight, Greg Collins,
the leader of the group, was found by his wife, Vicky, just over here.
He'd been stabbed three times in the chest.
And a Happy New Year to you, too(!)
Everyone else was inside, arms linked,
belting out a punk rendition of Auld Lang Syne.
Nobody heard or saw a thing.
Police investigation?
Inconclusive, no witnesses.
- CCTV? - No, not back then.
There were no clear suspects identified and the trail's run cold.
So what's changed?
Greg Collins wrote a journal-come-diary, a sort of
Thoughts Of Chairman Greg for his then two-year-old daughter, Rose.
That's her there.
This place had ticked over for years and then Rose took it over,
she redecorated,
found this journal in an old box,
read it, brought it to our attention, demanding that we
- look into it. - Why?
Because of its last entry, written just hours before Greg's death.
Listen to this.
"They want to silence me. They want to meet tonight.
"I won't bow. Never give in.
- "Never be silent." - So who did he meet
and why did they want to silence him?
Dad pissed people off for a living. Outspoken, outraged,
out there. See?
So all the other people in the photo,
were they Mad For It as well?
I guess. You could ask my mum.
She might know.
Isn't that Baroness Khan, as she now is?
She runs a charity called Mania.
It's the official voice of mental illness in the UK.
Who'd have thought it?
Started out a rebel activist before crossing over to the
dark side.
She's a bit establishment for me.
"Whitehall 1999. Greg, Samira, Toni and the gang."
Well, Samira is Baroness Khan, right, so which one is Toni?
- No idea. - Do you have a list of members?
They weren't that organized!
I've got a couple of newsletters upstairs in the flat I can dig out.
So, what's this place all about?
Well, first and foremost, we're a sanctuary,
a safe haven for anyone with mental health issues,
but we also have workshops, counselling facilities
and groups meet here.
And who are you funded by?
You are joking?
Volunteers, elbow grease, the odd donation and what I chipped in.
It was Dad's idea
and he wanted the mental health community to stand up for itself
rather than rely on handouts from government councils and charities.
Hats off to you.
All I know for sure is that this place
was Dad's dream for all of them.
He just never really got a chance to see it.
Do you still need the journal?
If it's OK.
Sure. Just missing it a bit. It's all I've got of him.
Do you think Rose'll be OK?
Why wouldn't she be?
Dangerous thing, idealism.
She's dealing with an area rife with fear and prejudice.
And fighting that prejudice,
the last great civil rights movement for someone like Rose,
is not necessarily a journey the rest of the world wants to go on.
Well, we need to do our bit, then.
Rose has given us her mum Vicky's address.
Let's pay her a visit and try and get an appointment
with Baroness Khan. You two, try and trace this Toni.
Ted, you're with me.
You know, Greg wrote in here that he wasn't exactly a saint.
I wonder what he meant by that.
Did you know about the journal?
- Um... Yeah. - Thank you. - I knew about it
but I wouldn't have known what was in it.
It mentioned that Greg was going to have a meeting on New Year's Eve.
Any idea who with?
No, he didn't say anything to me.
Do you know of any reason that anyone might have
wanted to kill Greg?
No. I mean, look, Greg was full-on, you know.
He had enemies inside and outside the mental health community.
Why inside?
There were endless battles, mainly between him and Samira Khan.
- Baroness Khan? - Mm.
Protester's proof of powerlessness versus a determination to
work with rather than against the system.
Which I'm sure Samira Khan was into.
Exactly. I was never that militant. It was Greg and the others.
I just wanted a quiet life, really.
Are you involved, given Rose's passion?
No, I find it quite hard, to be honest.
Um...
I've never been a great fan of The Madhouse.
Why?
Well, for one, it was where Greg died,
but also, with the money Greg left, I had hoped that Rose would fund
university with it but she insisted on taking that place on instead.
Did you argue about it?
Well, yeah, but...
.. we'll get over it. We always do.
Do you know who any of these people are?
Which one's Toni?
I didn't really do the rallies.
Sorry, I don't recognise any of them.
This Mad For It bulletin from 2001 mentions a Toni Pembury.
What do you think? It's Toni with an I.
Is that a man or a woman?
Could be a girl called Toni. I had an Uncle Marion.
Uncle Marion?
What's wrong with that? John Wayne's real name was Marion.
He was called Marion Morrison.
Not to his face, he wasn't, and he changed it.
Next thing, you'll be telling me Harrison Ford's real name is Debbie!
Funnily enough...
Anyway, it says here whoever it was
was sectioned following a psychotic episode.
That means they're traceable.
You all right with this?
You know, the case?
Why? Because my wife is in a psychiatric institution?
Well, yeah.
Yes. Thank you for your concern but I'm fine.
Here we go.
Antionette Pembury. She's at the Tollingham Lodge secure unit.
Um...
Can I just ask...
Your husband says in here that he wasn't a saint.
What did he mean?
Well, he was honest, I'll give him that.
Um...
Greg was a great campaigner.
He was a lion of a man with a massive heart.
Didn't make him a good husband.
Can you be more specific?
Do I have to?
Look, when I fell in love with Greg, I knew it was never going to
be a normal relationship. It was a rollercoaster, you know, and...
.. there were infidelities and that hurt.
And then it ended.
Some people are born to fight, aren't they? Greg, Rose. Not me.
I've done my shift, OK?
Thank you.
- You ever tried a metal detector? - What?
It's just I heard they've found more medieval
coins in Aberdeen than anywhere else in Britain.
You could try it. Might get lucky.
Miss Pembury?
Yeah? That's me.
Danny Griffin and Steve McAndrew, Unsolved Crime
and Open Case Squad.
We're looking into the death of Greg Collins.
Wow!
You guys took your time, didn't you?
So we were going to explode old stereotypes
and usher in this new age of acceptance,
you know, mental health as the last great civil rights movement.
I was 18.
What did I know?
How did you get involved?
I've had issues since my early teens
and I got to know people that way, really.
Were you at The Madhouse on millennium night?
I was ill.
I was in and out of hospital around that time.
It's taken me quite a while but I'm better now.
How well did you know Greg Collins?
Not as well as I'd have like to if he'd have lived.
In what sense?
Er...
Just that he was an inspiration, that's all.
- Who do you think killed him? - I don't know who but I know what.
Loxaperazine.
Loxa-what?
It was this radical new treatment to reduce anxiety.
Greg was trialling it unofficially.
Unofficially?
So, loxaperazine had these really controversial side effects
and Greg thought it shouldn't have been on the market
and he was convinced that the drug company knew that, they knew
how dangerous it was and they were just interested in the money.
If he knew it was dangerous, why was he taking it?
So he could experience the side effects first-hand.
He was using himself as a guinea pig?
Amazing, right?
Putting his own health on the line
so he could take on this drug company from a position of strength.
But all the side effects, they made him way more volatile than usual,
physically and emotionally.
So, this anti-drug campaign.
Did you mention it to anyone else at the time?
Yeah, the police, about 250 times.
Well, there'll be a record of that. We'll check it out.
I like to think that I stand up for my principles
but experimenting on yourself with a new drug?
That's quite something!
Do you think Collins was having an affair with Toni?
You know, wild man Greg
and this crazy teenager hanging off his every word?
She did seem rather taken with him.
He certainly wasn't a man bound by conventional morals.
Bit like you, then.
Hey, speak for yourself! I'm a paragon of virtue.
Well, occasionally.
Baroness. One of the lower-ranking titles, yeah? Non-hereditary?
It's more likely she's been given a lifetime peerage for her
charity work.
What do we call her?
I'll let you know after we've met her.
DCI Miller?
Mr Case? Samira, please.
I am so sorry to keep you waiting. Come on through.
So, I believe you're here to discuss the death of Greg Collins.
Quite a personality!
Do you know, he once abseiled naked into a newsroom to
protest against cuts in the mental health sector?
We got the impression you didn't approve of those sort of antics.
I don't, really, but...
Well, Greg certainly made life a lot more interesting.
Oh, I'm so sorry. Please have a seat.
So, how can I help?
New evidence has come to light that he arranged to meet
someone on the night he was killed,
someone who might have been trying to silence him.
We're keen to find out who and about what.
Oh, I'm sorry, I don't think I can help.
I wasn't really in touch with Greg by then.
Do you know what he was campaigning about at the time?
No, no, but then there was always some issue for Greg to rail against.
Were you at the launch party for The Madhouse that New Year's Eve?
No, no, I'd started Mania by then.
I'd left Mad For It behind.
Happily, acrimoniously?
I talked all this through in the original investigation.
Greg accused me of selling out.
He thought that charities like mine
colluded with the government on legislation, compulsory
admissions to hospitals, provision for mental health users.
Reinforced the status quo rather than breaking it.
Whereas you'd argue what?
Idealism's for kids.
Greg was naive.
Better work with what you've got.
I believed, then as now, that I was acting for the greater good.
These differences of opinion, how heated could they get?
They were passionate. We were passionate.
We still are.
But we're all on the same side, are we not, DCI Miller?
So Toni Pembury mentions a controversial drug
launched around the time of Greg Collins' death.
Loxaperazine. She's adamant that she told the police about it
but so far, there's nothing about it in the files.
Keep looking. Let's find out everything we can about the drug.
What about Greg Collins' personal life?
Well, his wife, Vicky, freely admits that he'd been unfaithful to her.
Toni Pembury's clearly close to him.
She could have been one of his affairs, the affair ended...
Greg gets murdered, crime of passion?
Although Toni Pembury claims to have been
ill at the time of the murder and not there on the night.
Which leaves betrayed wife Vicky. In addition, we've got Baroness Khan,
who clearly didn't see eye to eye with Greg ideologically.
What was she like, the Baroness?
Charming, intelligent, persuasive.
You didn't like her, then?
I've never really been a fan of the establishment.
I sort of get a little bit uneasy around authority figures.
Sir, Ma'am. I wasn't aware we had a meeting.
We don't. I'm afraid we have some bad news.
There is going to be an official inquiry into the handling
of the Henway case.
Sorry, guys. That arrest was my mistake.
Yup, one we all shared in.
And take collective responsibility for. It was a complicated case.
Well, let's hope the inquiry sees it that way, too.
However, there is a knock-on.
You three are suspended pending the outcome of that inquiry.
From when?
- As of now. - Seriously?
We did try to block it but no luck, I'm afraid.
Look, it's not great, I know, but our hands are tied.
Sorry, I've got to get on. I just thought you deserved to be
told face-to-face.
Bob.
What's going on?
I'm not sure. Believe me, I did everything I could.
The inquiry I can deal with, we're always under scrutiny,
but to drop everything and go,
just like that... I mean, what about this new case?
We've started to make progress.
Seriously, you need to forget about the case for now.
What we need to do is to play this by the book.
It's really not worth risking your jobs over this.
What are you saying? We carry on, they'll sack us?
Yeah.
The best thing you guys can do is to lay low until all this blows over.
I can only apologise that I wasn't here during the Henway case.
Absolutely my fault.
But what are we saying here? We just pack up and go
and then it's just over to you, Sasha,
you solve this case on your own?
I guess.
I'll give you all the support you need. Gentlemen, Sasha.
Usual, thanks, Terry. Has this ever happened to you before?
- You know, an inquiry? - No, of course not.
- Me neither. - Really?
Well, OK, one or two times, I've had a run-in with the powers that be
but nothing like this, for God's sake!
Ted?
- Three. - What?
Well, in fairness, one was a disciplinary hearing and one was
a case of mistaken identity and...
Well, the other one was a full-blown enquiry.
What about?
Punching a superior officer.
Well, you know, he was bullying a new kid. Just wasn't fair.
And what was the outcome? Did you win any?
- I don't really want to talk about it right now. - Why not?
It might jinx the outcome of this one.
That doesn't bode well. Stick it on a tab, Terry.
So is that it? We just stop?
What else can we do? You heard Strickland.
So we just sit this one out or risk getting sacked?
And what if they find not in our favour? What then?
Well, it's not going to come to that, is it?
I don't know about you two but I can't let it end like this.
I want to go out on a high.
I don't want to be mothballed.
We've already been mothballed. It's the knacker's yard next!
We should complain to the union, if we had one.
No, it too late for that. We need to act.
Rose Collins deserves justice.
And if we don't stand up for her, who will?
Nobody, and that's a fact.
Well, I think we know what we're saying, don't we, gentlemen?
I think we do.
Yeah, I've always wanted to go commando...
.. or al fresco or under the radar, whatever you call it.
Illegal, I think, is the word.
That's the one.
Sir?
Something's not right here. What do you think?
OK, so the Henway case wasn't exactly our finest hour but...
.. an official inquiry? Seems a tad harsh, doesn't it?
What if something else is going on...
.. like some other agenda, something we don't know about?
I'll do some digging.
Terry says we're fine for power until the wrestling comes on,
and then we need to give this extension back.
The old boys in the back room are mad grapple fans, apparently.
So, where have we got to with this drug? Loxa-whatever it's called?
Loxaperazine.
Taken off the market in 2001,
chemically altered, renamed and relaunched in 2002
and according to the bumph,
is one of the world's most widely prescribed antipsychotic drugs.
- Lucrative. - Very.
Greg Collins reckoned that the manufacturers
put money before safety and launched too soon.
Well, taking it off the market would suggest he was probably right.
And if he was making a noise about it,
the company that made it
might have wanted to meet up and silence him.
He was certainly making plenty of noise.
According to the Southwark Gazette,
he chained himself to railings of the company's HQ
during an annual shareholders meeting.
Awkward. When?
December '99.
And the company being?
It was a biomedical research facility called the Rudwin Trust.
- I met your mum. - Yeah?
I gather she wasn't best pleased when you took this place on.
You could say that again. She doesn't even come near it.
Where are your mates?
Er, we had a slight complication
in that they're, well,
for the time being anyway, they're off the case. It's just me now.
No offence, but...
just you?
Even in a community used to cutbacks, 75% is a bit extreme.
Well, I promise I'll do everything I can.
Sounds like you've been shafted to me.
You should protest. Don't take it lying down.
If there's more of you on the case, there's a better chance of us finding out what happened to Dad.
I know, I'm sorry, Rose.
Do you know what? I thought you guys were different.
But you're not, are you?
You are just like all the rest.
I may as well take my journal back now.
- Well, why? I'm still on the case. - Yeah, yeah.
Tell it to someone who gives one.
No, we're fine, thank you.
Yeah, we're in the pub, playing darts.
Yeah.
Now?
You're on your way?
Um...
No, lovely.
Yeah, um, I tell you what, I'll get them in. What do you fancy?
Ah-ha.
- Lovely. - Get it.
Ice and lemon? Great.
I look forward to it.
Ah.
Cheers.
Clearly all traumatised by suspension, then.
Well, it's not as bad as we thought.
We could play doubles now you're here.
Unless there's anything you want to talk about.
No, no, we probably shouldn't talk shop now, should we?
No. Probably not.
So, um...
.. busy day at work?
- I read through the old case files. - Mm.
There's some useful background there,
but what there isn't is any mention of Toni Pembury
- or whatever that drug was called. - Loxaperazine.
Or, or... whatever it's called.
- I mean... maybe she got it wrong. - Oh.
Maybe some files were lost, or...
maybe there was a cover-up.
What's going on?
Nothing.
You've been disobeying orders haven't you?
- No. - Well, you have,
I can see the names "Greg" and "Khan" on the chalkboard there.
That's the old boys in the back, that's, um...
that's "Round The Clock" Khan, and...
Greg "Game Shot" Gregson.
I'll take that as a yes, then, shall I?
"Round The Clock" Khan and Greg "Game Shot" Gregson?
- I didn't hear you piping up. - What were you thinking? Are you mad?
If we are, we're in good company.
You could get sacked.
We're just information gathering. Where's the harm?
Sasha, we've found something.
OK, tell me, but on one condition...
You don't go and see or speak to anyone. Agreed?
- Do you partners know what happened today? - No.
Right, you two, go home, tell them.
- You can fill me in. - Yeah, OK.
- Danny. - Yeah.
Fiona did call a few times today. Is everything all right?
Yeah, tickety-boo.
I'll check out the Rudwin Trust first thing tomorrow.
This could be the start of a beautiful friendship, you know.
Us on the outside, chipping in. You on the inside, boxing clever.
- I'd rather it just went back to normal. - Hm.
It's good to have you back.
We never went away.
The Rudwin Trust Annual report. Hm.
Are you thinking of switching careers?
Danny, about Aberdeen...
I have to let them know pretty soon, about the job.
Whether I want it or not.
Great.
So, I just want to know where you're at with it all.
Absolutely.
If the enquiry finds against you,
does that make the idea of a move impossible to think about right now, or more likely? Or...
I just want to know where you're at.
Mm-hm.
Danny!
I'm so sorry, what was I thinking? Um...
This is Greg Collins' autopsy report. You couldn't take a quick look at it, could you?
Hello.
Rose, what is it?
Rose, calm down.
- It's gone. - What?
Dad's journal, someone's taken it.
- This is all that's left. What am I going to do? - What happened?
Someone took my bag, it was behind the counter and they just ran off with it.
- Did you see who? - No.
But they dumped the bag as soon as they got outside,
keys, wallet, everything still inside. Just not the journal.
- OK. - These pages were loose before
and they just must have fallen out when they ran,
but this, the bulk of it, it's gone.
OK, all right, don't worry. We'll find it.
I promise.
I should never have got you involved, this is all my fault.
- Who else knew? Who did you tell? - No-one. Why would I?
How did you get the burns?
I climbed into a bath of boiling water when I was a little.
Guess I inherited Dad's tendency to break the rules.
It's not a big deal.
Well, look, you can't be on your own.
Have you got somewhere you could go,
- or I could take you to your mum's if you want? - No. No.
Er, I'll stay with a friend.
I spoke to Stewart last night.
Father and son in functional relationship shocker. I'm impressed.
Don't be. Because of the time difference, I woke him up. He's in Australia.
- What's he doing there? - Painting boats, hanging out on Bondi Beach.
He didn't take too kindly to being woken up at the crack of dawn.
- It's the thought that counts. - That's what I said,
- but he'd hung up by then. - Oh! You here as well?
I thought you were off the case.
We are, but we heard your breakfasts are legendary.
We'll have what he's having.
I was sorry to hear about your journal.
Yeah.
So, who do we think would steal it?
Well, Baroness Khan might.
She might want to know whether or not it mentions loxaperazine.
Why would she care?
Well, apart from manufacturing loxaperazine,
the Rudwin Trust also make donations to charity.
- They're particularly supportive of... - Don't tell me.
Mania?
And I don't mean collection boxes.
They've been the charity's main donor since their inception in 1999,
when they initially donated a whopping 100 grand.
So, a mental health charity funded by a drug manufacturer.
That's a bit of a conflict of interest, isn't it?
I'm sure Greg Collins wasn't too happy about that.
How did Khan even know about the journal?
Rose swears that the only other person who knew about it was her mum.
Well, so, she must have told somebody.
Something else about the journal, these pages, it's all...
sweet stuff about Vicky, right? Listen to this...
"You'll never guess what your mum taught you today." And then...
"your mum took you to the park." I mean, why mention it?
Of course her mum would take her to the park. Why wouldn't she?
That's what people put in those things, isn't it?
It doesn't all have to be profound.
Yeah, but it's like he's building to something.
He talks about how much her mum loved Rose,
how much having a baby meant to her,
about all the dreams that she had for Rose's future.
Also...
.. Rose has some scarring on her midriff, right,
which she claims was her fault,
because she got in a scalding bath as a baby,
but the journal mentions it differently,
says it was an accident, says it wasn't her mum's fault
and that she wasn't well at the time.
Well, Vicky certainly never mentioned to us about being ill.
Look, the point is,
if Vicky did hurt Rose unintentionally or otherwise, then...
maybe Greg was planning to leave and take Rose with him.
- Gives her a bloody big motive. - We need to talk to her. - Yeah.
No, I don't think so.
YOU are not going anywhere.
We had a deal, remember? Under the radar.
I will go and talk to her as soon as I've doorstepped Khan.
- Is this an official visit? - Of course. Why?
We'll have to walk and talk, then.
I'm due in Whitehall and I'm running late.
I want to talk to you about The Rudwin Trust.
They made loxaperazine, as it used to be called.
Never heard of it.
Really? It was taken off the market in 2001.
There were people, Greg Collins mainly,
who thought that it was dangerous and the manufacturers,
the main benefactors of your charity,
had rushed it out in search of profit.
- Is it sounding familiar yet? - I can't say that it is.
You said earlier
that you didn't know what Greg was campaigning about at the time.
- That's right. - It's funny, that,
cos he was banging on vociferously about a drug
made by people who were about to give you £100,000.
He was arrested for chaining himself to their railings.
Is it still not ringing any bells?
Well, you have to remember that Greg pulled so many stunts like that.
It's hard to remember them all.
And of course, we are talking about someone
who used to suffer from paranoid delusions.
Are you, of all people, dismissing someone with mental health issues?
Besides, he wasn't deluded.
It WAS taken off the market. He was right.
Then I suggest you speak to the trust about it.
Baroness Khan, you don't happen to have Greg Collins' journal, do you?
Will you excuse me? I have to go.
We can pick up later, or tomorrow if you'd rather?
Tomorrow?
I don't think so.
I'm just going to run a little errand.
Where are you going?
I told Pat I'd pick up a few things up while I was out.
Danny.
- That secure unit Antoinette Pembury's in. - Mm-hm?
Not very secure, is it? Rose, you got a minute?
You see this woman here?
Yeah. Comes in most days.
- Never says a word, though. Why? - Her name's Antoinette Pembury.
This is her before the millennium.
No way!
Are you joking me?
How cool is that?
Bit odd she never says hello, isn't it?
Why would she?
It's not like I go around wearing a badge saying I'm Greg's daughter.
Now what?
Just a couple of questions, really.
- Um, can I give you a hand? - No, no, you're all right.
Um, the journal mentioned Rose's burns?
Oh, yeah, it was just an accident, that's all.
So, nothing to do with you being ill at the time?
What, ill physically?
In a way that might have been damaging to Rose as a baby.
No, it was just an awful accident. Nothing more.
Right, OK. Um...
You haven't told anybody about the journal?
- No. - Are you sure?
Are you still in touch with Baroness Khan, for example?
We wondered if maybe she knew about it.
Samira Khan phoned me yesterday.
After all this time?
She said you'd been to see her and just wanted to check I was OK.
Ah-ha.
Did you mention the journal to her?
Um...
Yeah, I might have.
Yeah.
Why?
Rose was robbed last night.
Robbed?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, Jesus.
Oh, my God, I've got to go and see her, is she OK?
- Come on, I'll... - Oh, Jesus. - .. I'll give you a ride.
That repetitive trilling noise? It means your phone's ringing.
Again.
Rose!
Are you OK?
Been a while.
Oh, why didn't you tell me you'd been robbed?
Why would I?
I wasn't hurt.
Dad's journal got stolen out of my bag, that's it.
Besides, I didn't think you'd be interested.
Why did you even tell her?
Because we needed to find out who else knew about the journal.
Cos I care about you, I'm your mum.
Except when it comes to the cafe, for some reason.
Some bad things have happened here.
Well, they don't any more.
And we could do with the support.
- At least some of the old members have stood by us. - Like who?
Like this... Toni woman.
She still comes in years later.
She clearly hasn't got a problem with the place.
She comes in here?
All the time.
She hasn't forgotten the past.
She hasn't given up.
Excuse me.
The errand went well, then.
Well, I was trying to make amends.
And perhaps a little progress.
I think you did.
Vicky Collins was lying.
I think she knows Toni Pembury.
Mm-hm.
Pork scratchings, anyone?
If Vicky Collins knew Toni Pembury, why not tell us? Why lie?
What did she say about being ill?
Denied it.
But that could be a lie too.
Vicky obviously does care about her daughter.
She was clearly panicked when she thought something was wrong.
- And yet she doesn't go near the place her daughter runs. - Er...
- Is there a reason you're not answering your phone? - Fiona.
- How did you know I was here? - She called me, Sherlock.
Right, um...
You want to know about Aberdeen and we haven't had a chance for a chat.
Shut up and sit down.
I've just gone through this autopsy report.
It's not really my field,
but the wounds are consistent with a household kitchen knife.
Extreme force, through the sternum up towards the heart,
puncturing the aorta.
Several quick thrusts in succession.
- Victim effectively drowned in his own blood. - Lovely.
Face-to-face.
- It was quite frenzied. - Implying?
Implying that it was up close and personal.
Emotional.
One can almost imagine doing it oneself.
Fiona, I'm sorry.
There's a reason I haven't said anything.
It's Sarah.
I may not have a marriage,
- but I have a wife. - Danny, I know that.
But leaving would feel like letting go.
Drawing a line under it.
Admitting it was finally over.
- Isn't it? - Yes.
But she hasn't got anyone else.
She doesn't have contact with our daughter. I doubt she ever will.
I can't just abandon her.
I'm very sorry, but I can't come with you.
- Hey! Excuse me, what are you doing? - Orders, ma'am.
What are they doing?
I'm afraid UCOS has been disbanded.
It's being shut down.
What? Why?
Simple, really.
You and your band of merry men carried on working on the case.
I can't have people working behind my back.
Says who?
We are police officers too.
Phone calls to trusts requesting company accounts
are traceable, for example.
- What about the enquiry? - No longer necessary.
Sasha, it's over. It's finished. UCOS is finished.
What about Dan, Ted, Steve?
Their contracts will be terminated forthwith.
You can't do that.
After everything they've done? Everything that Gerry Standing did?
Sandra Pullman, Jack, Brian? All of their efforts forgotten?
This is not the time for sentiment.
Look, don't worry, you're fine.
Your job offer is still on the table,
yours for the taking.
Start on Monday.
Where were we?
- OK with Fiona? - Yes, thank you.
Er, now, Fiona said
she thought the stabbing might be part of an emotional response. So,
this is a crime of passion, isn't it? Somehow centring around Rose.
Vicky cares for Rose, but there's certainly a distance.
Toni may not have been there today,
but she does make regular visits to the cafe.
Vicky says she's not been ill, but Toni clearly has, especially when she was sectioned.
What if...
Toni is Rose's mother
from an affair with Greg?
What if Rose is Toni's love child?
But how did Vicky end up with the kid?
If I'm right,
Greg gets killed,
Toni is in hospital, but is then institutionalized.
What if Vicky took the child on as her own?
Sasha, we think we might have cracked it.
It's over.
UCOS has been disbanded, with immediate effect.
Is there really nothing we can do?
Seemingly not. Cynthia can do whatever she wants.
If she wants to close down UCOS, she can. We can't stop her.
Do you think you'll take that promotion?
The force needs good people in senior positions.
I could never work for Cynthia now. What about you lot?
Well, before I got tangled up with UCOS,
Pat was trying to convince me
to drive round Europe in the old camper van.
I don't have an excuse not to now.
Think I might go and see Stewart in Sydney.
And what about Rose? I mean, we were so close.
Bloody ridiculous. Police politics gets in the way of justice for,
for Rose and Greg Collins.
Wouldn't be the first time people with mental health issues
have got forgotten about.
They're not always forgotten.
What about you, Danny? What do you think you'll do?
I think I'll get us all another drink.
Please tell me this isn't happening.
I did warn you not to carry on.
Apparently the enquiry was never about the Henway case.
Cynthia was behind it all.
She needs money for her Honour Killings Unit
and she needs to find it any way she can.
Oh, what? By closing UCOS down?
Yes, and swallowing up the budget.
By carrying on with the case, you played straight into her hands.
She doesn't even need an enquiry any more.
Baroness Khan said something odd,
like she knew we weren't going to be around tomorrow.
Well, Cynthia and she are friends.
If you were snapping at Khan's heels then, you know,
they'd just become a combined force.
There must be something we can do.
You know I'd do whatever I can for UCOS, and for you, but...
I don't think there is.
Hey, guys, remember what we said.
Hi.
How we all doing?
Not too bad, actually.
It's amazing what a good night's sleep can do.
Tomorrow's another day and all that.
How about you?
Yeah, I thought about everything, rationalized it,
figured out you don't always get what you want in life
and sometimes you just have to accept your lot and move on.
Good way of looking at it.
Then I thought about Greg and Direct Action
and Rose telling us we had to fight back.
And then I remembered my resolution, to right the wrongs.
We have to fight back.
And how are we going to do that?
I'm not sure, but first things first,
we're going to find out who killed Rose's father.
Fancy another visit to Vicky Collins?
I thought you'd never ask.
Secure unit for two?
Let's boogie.
If we're going to go down, it's better to be all guns blazing.
- Is it Rose? - We wanted to talk to you about Toni.
Oh, Jesus, I've told you, I don't know her.
We think you do.
You yourself said that Greg had affairs.
So, what's that got to do with Toni?
Vicky... is Toni Rose's mother?
She is, isn't she?
Did she have an affair with Greg?
- No! - And get pregnant? - No, you're wrong.
Then how did you come to take Rose on? Why would you do that?
Why would you take on your husband's love child?
I didn't. Greg would never have laid a hand on Toni, he's her father.
From another relationship.
Toni got pregnant when she was 16 years old
after a one-night stand. That's when she came to live with us.
- The burns? They were Toni's fault. - Mm-hm.
She was ill.
She couldn't cope.
- So, she was sectioned? - Mm-hm.
She referred herself.
We all thought it was best.
For her, and Rose's safety.
So, you took Rose in as your own?
What happened the night of the party?
Toni should've been in hospital.
But, you know, Greg wanted them to be together.
Typical Greg. Always thought he knew best.
So, he arranged for her to come to the warehouse?
Millennium night. A fresh new start?
(Yeah.)
And I caught them together.
With Rose.
And I said I'd leave him...
unless he told Toni she could never see Rose again.
What did he do?
Hm. For once in his life, he agreed.
I wish he hadn't now.
He went to tell her.
It was the last time I saw him alive...
Danny, Toni's not here.
She's gone to see somebody called Rose.
Vicky Collins turned up last night, it all kicked off, apparently.
Vicky, are you saying that Toni killed Greg?
She was ill.
Yes, but did she?
Oh, God.
I should never have left them alone together.
Toni's left the secure unit. She's going to see Rose.
Get to the cafe. Rose is in danger.
- London Bridge? - OK.
Excuse me.
Have you seen Rose today?
- No Rose today. - Danny. - She's not here? - No. - Danny.
Rose got a call from Toni, they're meeting in a park.
- Where? Which one? - Somewhere near London Bridge. There must be a few.
London Bridge. Um...
Got it.
Danny, how did you know it was this one?
It's the only park reputed to be on the site of the Bethlem Hospital.
The original Bedlam.
Rose...
Are you OK?
Why didn't you tell me the truth?
That you're not my mum and Toni is?
Please, listen to me, sweetheart.
It, it wasn't that simple, OK?
I had to do what was best for everyone.
Toni wasn't capable.
I had a right to know.
You just kept it from me. How could you do that?
- I was protecting you. - You were lying to me.
- You've lied to me this whole time. - I had to. Toni wasn't capable.
Yeah, maybe not then.
Right?
But I am now.
You don't know that, Toni. You don't know what gets into you.
I do.
I'm not that person any more.
Why did you go to the cafe?
Because I wanted to see her.
How could I not?
Toni, we know about you being there on Millennium Night.
That you came from the hospital to see Rose. What happened?
Oh...
We danced.
It was like Heaven.
And after Vicky brought Rose back inside?
That's when it happened.
That's when you lost it with Greg.
I didn't lose it with my dad.
He told me what you'd said
and I told him that I understood
and that maybe,
hopefully, one day,
I could prove you wrong...
.. and that I could come back.
That I could be part of this family again.
And then I left.
No.
All those years I was wrong?
I blamed you.
I hated you, even, for what I thought you took from me.
Because you were ill.
You didn't do it, did you?
It wasn't you, it was never you.
God, I'd have never have taken Rose off you. I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Toni, do you remember what happened after that?
Where did your dad go?
- He said he had to see someone. - Who?
All he said was that it was someone who had sold out.
Did you see Samira Khan there? Was she inside?
Yeah.
She was there, she was at the party.
Sir, thank you for coming.
Why are they here?
Just taking in the sights, sir.
They couldn't let it go.
Besides, without them, the case wouldn't have been solved.
Well, I suppose, um, well done. And you should know,
that the original investigation into Greg Collins' death,
there WAS a cover-up.
I'll explain on the way. Shall we?
Not you three.
When does this become harassment?
Oh, I don't think we're anywhere near that yet.
You do know that obstructing a police investigation
is a criminal offence.
Oh, really?
I wasn't aware this was a POLICE investigation.
It's just a bunch of mavericks who are outstaying their welcome.
Mavericks who are prepared to go down kicking and screaming.
Loudly.
About loxaperazine.
Baroness Khan, we know pressure was brought to bear on the police
during the initial investigation into Greg Collins' death.
Files went missing.
Any mention of loxaperazine was removed.
The manufacturer knew that it was dangerous, didn't they?
So did Greg, and you knew too.
So, your donation from the Rudwin Trust...
start-up fund?
Or hush money?
Do you actually know anything about loxaperazine?
All we need to know is that it shouldn't have been on the market.
The SECOND version
is now regarded as THE single most successful antipsychotic drug
released in the last 20 years.
It has transformed lives.
- For the better. - Yes, NOW, maybe. But back then?
- All drugs have side effects. - Is that a justification?
An explanation.
People aren't guinea pigs.
Sometimes you just have to see the bigger picture.
The end justifies the means?
- I don't think Greg would've seen it that way. - Who cares what he thought?
He wasn't going to let go, was he? That's why you agreed to meet.
He was going to make such a noise, wasn't he?
Because he was good at that.
No, not really.
All that "don't bow down, never give in" nonsense never worked for me.
Oh, you mean... the last words that he wrote in his journal.
Who did you get to steal Rose's bag?
Does your charity often perform criminal acts?
I...
have no idea what you are talking about.
I was merely quoting Greg. It's a line he used a lot.
So, the CCTV we have of someone running away from the cafe
won't be linked back to you, I take it?
We have a witness who says they saw you that night at the party,
at the Madhouse.
Did it slip your mind when you talked to us originally?
Your whereabouts on the night of the millennium?
Greg wrote in his journal that he was going to meet someone,
and that person had "sold out."
That was you, wasn't it?
Greg Collins risked his life taking loxaperazine
to expose the Rudwin Trust.
And there's you, taking their money.
I bet he was furious, wasn't he?
I...
was doing it for the greater good.
Working the system, so we all could benefit,
he just point blank refused to see it that way.
So, what? You... warned him off?
He accused me of being a money-grabbing political climber.
He said I didn't care about the community.
He had no idea what he was talking about.
Seems to me he did.
He just couldn't stand by and watch you working for the system
that he knew was corrupt, could he?
So you silenced him.
And you've sold out. Don't you understand?
No, it's not. I know what it is damn well! You know damn well!
Has he paid you well, has he?
He just...
wouldn't listen.
The thing is, you didn't silence him.
His voice lives on.
Through Rose.
Baroness Khan, I'm arresting you for the murder of Greg Collins.
- No-one is saying that you helped cover up a murder. - Thank you.
But it does seem there's been undue influence from Khan on this enquiry.
I agree.
The situation regarding Baroness Khan was... unfortunate,
and on reflection, shouldn't have influenced my thinking.
Meaning?
I made a mistake.
Like you did on the Henway case.
Mistakes happen.
I agree.
And UCOS?
Not up to me any more.
Oh, haven't you heard? I'm moving on up.
They were really impressed
with my leadership and cost-cutting measures.
So, who's taking over?
I think you'll find that's me.
Thank you.
So, Sasha, what are we doing here, exactly?
Well, we saved UCOS,
Strickland's now the new head honcho,
so, I thought I'd bring us all out for some lunch.
On the river?
Greenwich.
I thought we'd travel in style.
Yeah.
Very nice.
- What? What's the matter? - Nothing.
- No, we're fine. - Well, are you sure?
- Yeah. - Yeah... - Of course, yeah.
Doesn't look like nothing. Do you not want lunch?
Well, it's more not wanting to spoil lunch.
We've got something to tell you.
Go on.
Um...
I've been offered a new job.
As a criminal analyst at Interpol.
It's largely desk-bound job,
but they've said I could do it wherever I want, so...
I thought I might try and do it from Aberdeen.
Yeah, I've sort of...
well, no, I've actually applied for my private investigator's license,
so I'm going to head out to Sydney
and hang out with Stewart on Bondi Beach.
And I, er...
well, Pat and I have finally decided to go travelling.
- So we're very sorry and everything... - But we, er...
we don't want our old jobs back, really.
We just hope it's all right with you.
Especially given the boat and everything.
Right, well, I...
I don't know what to say, really, except for...
thank God, that is a massive relief.
- What? - I wasn't bringing you out to lunch to celebrate the return of UCOS.
The Honour Killing Unit?
It's happening! They've asked me to head it and I said yes.
- Congratulations! - Well done, you! - Congratulations, all. - Well done.
- Well done, well done. - Cheers.
Interpol? Get you!
Who did you have to blackmail for that, then?
Coming from you. McAndrew, PI.
PA, more like.

Beats a camper van around Europe.
Who said anything about a camper van?
We're going to the Amazon.
