We are not trying to win a battle! Praise the Lord!
The battle has already been won!
Hallelujah! Praise The Lord.
The Bible in 1 Thessalonians 5:22 says...

I am here about my son, Karl Barclay.
To see if you have any information about him. He is a missing person.
Karl Barclay... Karl is with a "K".
I brought an old toothbrush in case you need it for the DNA.
Thanks.
Young male, 21 years at the time of death.
Body was found floating in the Hales Reservoir on October 12th 2005.
Where's Hales Reservoir? It's near Collier in Bucks...
there.
SCREAMING
'The circumstances of his death were suspicious.'
Marks to the body suggest third party involvement.
You're presenting this to us because?
Because he's been a John Doe for six years and now he has a name...
Karl Barclay.
How have they got a name? DNA hit.
After six years? Apparently the inquest was opened and adjourned.
Someone recently flagged that the DNA hadn't been uploaded and so the Coroner's office reviewed the file.
Why wasn't it uploaded when the body was found? Indeed.
OK, so what do you know, then, about him?
21-years-old. He was a third-year medical student
at Regent Medical College. Where was he last seen alive?
A snooker hall near his family home in Kennington.
What do we know about the family?
Parents are immigrants, now naturalised British.
Father, Gideon, mother, Lisbetta, younger brother named Jakob.
And, presumably, they reported him missing? His father did.
64 times.
How long has he been missing?
Six years.
You're new... aren't you?
64 times? When was the first time?
October the 8th 2005.
So, Karl Barclay was reported missing four days before the body was found.
The body's been a John Doe for six years and then they get the DNA?
Yeah. Once his DNA had been uploaded by the Coroner's Office, it flagged his Missing Persons file.
Two investigations, one for a dead body,
one for a missing person and they didn't make the connection?
I mean, what are they... incompetent, careless, or was this deliberate?
Pull the file for the original investigation into the death.
OK.
Karl! Karl!
Wait!
Karl! Karl.
Karl, where have you been?
You come home now. Come home!
Bett, Bett, there you are. There you are.
Sorry.
Let's go. Let's go, eh?
Right. Thank you.
Gideon Barclay?
Might be. Police?
Might be. Do you want to play?
It costs money to play.
I've got that covered. Thanks, Grace.
You didn't come here to play snooker.
We're here to talk about your son.
What's he done now?
Your son, Karl.
Go ahead. And talk.
His body has been identified.
Mr Barclay... Don't, don't, don't, don't talk to me.
Nothing you can say to me.
Jakob told me he went away.
My other son, Jakob,
told me he went travelling.
Not to worry, he'd come back.
But he never came back.
I need to tell Lisbetta.
Where?
Where did they find him?
Last seen in Kennington and his body ends up here in Bucks.
Yeah. How does Karl get from A to B? Security.
Detective Inspector Jordan and Detective Superintendent Cavendish.
This place is well protected.
Soft target, isn't it? Is it?
If the infrastructure's vulnerable, the city's vulnerable.
SPLASH
SCREAMING
FRONT DOOR IS UNLOCKED
Betta?
They found him.
The police would like to look in his room.
I was so proud of him.
They need to look.
We need to try and understand what happened to him, Mrs Barclay.
A dead body?
You're joking me. No, I never heard anything about that.
Mind you, I didn't work here back then.
Strange it's not part of the oral history of the place.
That's just what I was thinking. Are you sure it was Hales Reservoir?
Very sure. Apparently a group of teenagers were out here swimming one night...
Skinny-dipping?
Yeah, that's right. We don't rush to chase them off, I tell you.
I've some very tasty videos.
The things they got up to. OK.
Thank you.
The water's from the Thames, right?
Flows in and out through the aqueduct to the water treatment facility outside Collier.
Does much debris get through? Debris? Like a dead body?
Yeah, like that. Only if it can climb over a fence.
There's big screens on the intake pipes take out most of the rubbish.
Does CCTV cover the entire reservoir?
I imagine. What, no blind spots?
Think I could see some of your videos? Police business.
NO! Be careful when you open it.
Be careful. It was where evil once dwelt.
I'll bear that in mind.
Our Father, whom art in heaven, hallowed be thy name...
I'm sorry. Since Karl, she's been...
..and deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
Oh, Gideon!
Let's go. Let's go.
She's built a shrine. Heavenly Father, protect us...
A shrine to ward off evil.
Mr Barclay, did the police come and look through this room after you reported your son missing?
No.
Was your son religious?
He was a scientist.
He was studying medicine?
That's right. Going to be a doctor.
Proudest day when he was accepted into medical school.
What happened to all his books?
He lived in halls when he was at university,
and when he was on attachment he lived in hospital accommodation.
So he didn't spend much time here?
No, no. He came around all the time.
Played snooker. Bring his friends.
And he liked football? Not really. Snooker.
He loved snooker.
There's four tickets here to the England-Poland game at Old Trafford.
They're not used. 12th of October, 2005.
That's the day... that his body was found.
Could they belong to your other son, Jakob? No.
He never comes round.
I haven't spoke to him for a long time.
Oh, God, he's unrecognisable.
Poor family have got to identify him.
Face up or down? Face down. So that would imply death by drowning.
Well, that's what the original post-mortem said, yes.
How long was he in the water? Just four days.
A body is usually found floating face down because of the density of the head.
As a consequence the fluids gravitate towards the head and
tissue putrefies at a greater rate which can make visual identification more difficult. Who found the body?
A bunch of teenagers broke into the reservoir to go skinny-dipping.
Alcohol, drugs in the system?
No evidence of that in the tox report, no.
Three fingers missing on the right hand.
Fishes get 'em? Rats?
No. The fingers look to have been crushed rather than cleanly cut.
There's crush fractures and crushing abrasions with underlying bruising.
Like it got smashed in a car door, or?
Yeah, well, that occurred to me too. The bruising isn't particularly well-developed which says to me that
the injuries occurred close to time of death.
Right, cuts to the chest.
What, so someone carved him up before the drowning happened?
Or, maybe it happened when he was in the water?
The interesting thing is the symmetry.
Are they razor cuts?
Possibly self-harm, they could have been self-inflicted.
Yeah, but there's evidence of injury to the wrists, suggesting that he was bound.
Now, that doesn't preclude self-harm but... Part of a sexual game?
Oh, Grace, for God's sake.
The cuts are organised, they're the same length, they're on
parts of the body that can be covered. It could suggest paraphilia.
Three fingers ripped off. He's not going to do that to get himself off!
There's definitely a third party involved, right?
HE SCREAMS
I want the body exhumed. Well, according to the Coroner's report,
the body was actually held in the morgue freezer awaiting a full inquest.
Let's thaw it out.
But torture was raised in the initial post-mortem?
No, the injuries were listed but no conclusion was drawn.
That's ridiculous, right, not to attempt to draw some conclusion? I know.
Hello, it's Sarah Cavendish. Is he there?
No, no, no, it's fine. I'll send him an e-mail. Thank you.
MAN HUMMING
♪ You're beautiful, it's true
♪ And I'm so in love with you. ♪
Edward?
♪ You're beautiful. ♪
Edward? ♪ You're beautiful... ♪
Edward?!
Sorry. Not a problem.
Are you looking for reception?
No, I'm looking for you.
The body was found on October 12th 2005 but the DNA didn't make it onto the database until...
Three weeks ago.
Yeah, OK. Three weeks ago. That's right.
Three weeks because I saw that it wasn't done. Don't know why.
It wasn't done so I told the relevant authorities. I'm new here.
Are you? Yes.
DNA is meant to go on the database.
That's what the guidelines say.
I see.
I sorted it out. Contacted the relevant authority.
They had the police put it on.
It was me. I sorted it.
That was good of you. Thank you.
The body?
Apparently you still have the body...
I've come to organise the release.
Can't do that. Oh, I think we can.
I'm from the Cold Case Unit. I know where you're from.
Your name is Dr Eve Lockhart.
You have a body farm. Edward?
Edward, it's very important I have access to that body.
I know. They shouldn't have cremated it.
He was cremated?
Guidelines say not to cremate unidentified people.
Not right away. But they did.
When? October 2005.
But it was still an open inquest.
Didn't follow the guidelines.
Cremated. Cremated.
So where did they get the DNA sample from?
Didn't follow the guidelines.
Were tissue samples from the deceased kept in storage?
Yes. A lot? Yes.
Can I see them? Yes.
Stomach contents.
Liver cross-section.
Lung.
Kidney.
Brain.
Meet Karl Barclay.
He's been here a lot longer than me.
I've got some information on Jakob Barclay. His probation officer.
Jakob has previous? Shed load.
Drug-dealer, gang member, assault...
He had an ASBO, broke it. When?
May 2006, May 2006, June 2006...
Took a break until October 2006.
Youth Offenders' Prison. Yeah.
That explains his father's attitude.
Thanks for this.
Jakob, this is Detective Superintendent Boyd.
What? Am I meant to be impressed by you?
I dunno.
Whatever... it doesn't matter to me.
I want to ask you some questions.
Am I under arrest? No. No? Cool.
I'll see you next week, Mr Probation Man.
Your brother is dead.
You told your father that Karl had gone away for a while.
That's what his girlfriend told me.
She showed me a letter she got from him.
What happened to the letter? I showed it to my mum.
Thought it might give her some comfort.
She didn't want to keep it.
You get that away from me. Jakob...
that's not from Karl.
You get it away from me.
She said it was evil.
Like it was him but it wasn't him.
Why evil? She thought he was, like, owned by something.
By the devil. You remember his girlfriend's name?
Do I remember it? He never had no girlfriend before. This was big news for him.
So, what's her name?
Nazeem. Naz for short.
Where d'you meet her?
She works at the student registry. What, she's not even a student?
She's a graduate student.
So, why are you growing this manky little beard?
Man, can't grow a beard? This is not impressive hair growth.
It's sunnah. Yeah, whatever.
Are you going to change your name no-one can pronounce it?
It's my business. Mum don't think so.
She reckons you've been snatched up the devil.
She's intending on getting a couple of ladies from the ministry round to have words. Oh!
Hey, you're not going to wear one of those little knit-caps, an' all?
Shut up.
They look like you're wearing a condom on your head. Shut up, yeah?
You don't know what you're talking about, so just shut up.
Nazeem Ahmed.
Grad student at Regent Medical College, yeah?
Your brother converted to Islam?
Yeah.
I guess.
Your brother know you sold drugs?
What are you doing, man? Oi! Get out of here!
I don't sell drugs.
Hey, bruv, I'm not going to let you kill yourself!
DIALS PHONE NUMBER
What are you doing? Hey, put that down. Hey, give it to me.
You're a liar. You lied about the letter, too. I ain't lying about nothing.
A disappointment to your parents, jealous of Karl, you've never been good enough.
You're a failure so you couldn't deal with it any more... No.
So you killed your brother.
You gonna cut me? You gonna do me?!
Then do it now!
What is this? Some sort of stitch-up, is that what it's about?
You ain't got nothing, so now you're looking at me.
You deal drugs, your brother knows.
Maybe he threatens to go to the police, you need to shut him up.
When he's dead, you panic, you write this letter
and try and pretend he'd gone away travelling! You're talking shit.
Did your brother sell drugs? What are you talking about? My brother was clever!
Are you not clever?
No. I'm not clever. I'm dangerous.
So am I.
Why am I not scared?
Because you're not clever.
Six years.
For six years, my daddy had to suffer wondering what happened to him.
And the po-po didn't do shit.
Now you what to come around acting all interested.
You don't know what it was like.
You don't know shit about us.
Well, we are the suspects, yeah, that's what we be.
Every month my daddy went into the nick asking, "Have you heard anything?" And what do you do?
Laugh at him. Laughing like he's some crazy person.
And they talk real slow...
like he's deaf...
or stupid.
You... don't...
know... shit.
Why would I kill my own brother? That's my brother,
like he was probably going to be a doctor or something.
I was proud of him.
My mum was proud of him. My dad was proud of him. He was their hope.
But not you.
No... I'm what they had left.
Mother is an evangelical Christian,
and the pride and joy of the family, Karl, he converts to Islam.
So, does he convert for a girl? Yeah. Nazeem Ahmed.
Regent Medical College confirmed she was a graduate student
and worked in their registry office in 2005. Don't discount it.
A lot of people convert for love. Others do it for a sense of identity or a sense of belonging.
Or maybe he just believed in it.
Or maybe he'd just had Christianity rammed down his throat all his life.
Karl Barclay was cremated two weeks after his body was found.
That's pretty unusual for an unidentified body.
Particularly for one that could be the victim of some sort of mutilation.
Who authorised that to happen? The paperwork was missing.
Who were the officers in charge at the time? DI Legwinski and DS Symonds.
But have you spoken to them? No. Symonds has moved to North Carolina.
Both retired on full pension.
I managed to track down Legwinski.
He works for a company in West London, Protect And Serve.
I got your e-mail.
Did you follow me? Well, I was intrigued.
I certainly don't want you sending any more e-mails.
Everything's monitored. You know that. People will talk.
How can I help you?
Karl Barclay? Means nothing to me.
Just checking. Cold case?
Yeah. His body was found in a reservoir near Collier in
2005 and it was cremated while the inquest to his death was still open.
We've just ID'd it. I'm sorry I can't help.
It was a long shot.
Getting along with your boss?
Everything's good. It's good to hear.
I'd love to get you back to work with us.
You were always my favourite police officer, you know that.
I think Karl was tortured.
For what it's worth, I thought the Met treated you badly.
They're animals.
Practically forced you to go in.
You took the blame for the whole operation.
How could it possibly be your fault?
Should've swept this place first.
Armed police! Don't move!
Mate, I'm here. Mick!
Stay with me!
Mick!
KNOCKING
You OK?
Yeah.
BUZZER
Protect And Serve.
Yeah, private security and close protection. Right.
VIPs and celebrities, that sort of thing. It's good money, is it?
Well, it pays the bills.
How did you get into it?
I was looking for something after I retired from the Met and this came up.
That's a bit of luck, isn't it?
Well, I was owed some.
When you're ready for a change of scenery you should give me a call.
I'll keep it in mind.
How can I help?
Cold case.
Ah, yeah, my girl said you were from the Cold Case Unit
and I said to her it must be one of my old cases
or else why would you be coming to see me?
Remember a body was found at Hales Reservoir?
Hales Reservoir? Yeah, near Collier. Victim was found floating
in the water by a group of teenagers who were skinny-dipping at the time.
Unidentified black male about twenty years of age.
Just before I retired? That's right.
Yeah, yeah, I remember.
I didn't get very far. I mean, I thought it was drugs or gangs.
I mean, young black kid... connect the dots!
Did you run the victim's DNA?
Well, we would have, wouldn't we? I mean, it's standard.
I don't remember doing it personally, I'll be honest.
I think Symonds must've done it. It didn't go on the database. No?
An unidentified victim and you didn't check his DNA against the database?
Well, I don't know, maybe we made a mistake.
What happened to Symonds?
Oh, he moved away. America, I think.
We lost touch. Why is Cold Case looking at this one?
We identified the body.
You identified the body?
Yeah. Good.
Yeah. Karl Barclay.
He's been a missing person for six years.
Oh, well, it gives closure to his family... Don't you want to know how?
I just told you his DNA wasn't on the database.
How? The morgue still had some tissue from the body which was fortunate because someone
had authorised it to be cremated two weeks after he'd been found
which, I think, is pretty strange, don't you? Yeah, I guess.
You didn't authorise it to be cremated, did you?
No! Why would I? Well, you wouldn't because you were trying to solve a murder but then the DNA didn't end up
on the database so you couldn't have been trying very hard, could you?
Do you remember looking at the CCTV footage of the reservoir?
I'm pretty sure that we did...
I don't remember... it should all be in the file.
All in the file, well, maybe Symonds did.
You don't have a number for Symonds, do you?
Oh, no, I'm afraid I don't.
I'm sorry, it's like I said, we lost touch. Right. Ok.
Protect and Serve.
Hi, get the phone records of 'Protect & Serve'.
I want to know who Legwinski called after I left.
Hello?...
Yes... yes, I'm aware.
I'm surprised you hadn't called me about it sooner...
Have you spoken to Symonds?
Thank you for coming in.
Our understanding is that you were close to Karl. Karl Barclay?
That's right. As you know, he has been missing for six years.
We've found him.
His body.
The body was first discovered in a reservoir six years ago, just outside London.
We were only able to identify it last week.
I'm sorry.
Are you able to continue, Nazeem?
How did you meet Karl?
Um...
I don't know... just around uni I guess.
So what was the connection? You had shared interests?
We were both members of the Islamic Students' Union.
But your relationship was quite serious?
No.
I love you.
Don't say that. I don't want to lose you.
Stop it, Karl.
I mean...
I know he liked me but it was never anything.
We just socialised at uni, that was it.
But you both liked football?
No, I hate it.
Karl liked football?
He hated it too. We had that in common.
You were his girlfriend...
Who told you that? Jakob did, his brother.
Yeah, I remember Jakob. Karl used to say he was a bit of a stirrer.
Did Karl take drugs?
You must be kidding... he didn't even drink.
So he took his studies very seriously?
Yes, very.
He loved medicine? Yes.
He would've made a good doctor.
Jakob said Karl wrote you a letter saying he was going travelling.
That's right. Didn't you think that was rather strange?
To give up something he loved, to go travelling?
I guess.
It's hard to know what's in another person's mind.
And you weren't his girlfriend? No. So, why did he write to you?
I don't think his family or his mother was very understanding
of his conversion to Islam.
I guess he just felt comfortable with me.
But you believed he'd been travelling? Yes.
He never went travelling.
He died a few days after he went missing.
Mum!
Hey! There's my big boy. How are you?
Fine.
Hi, my darling.
You're home early. I met with a client.
I've some e-mails to send.
You going to come and help me?
Are you ok? Yeah, fine. Did something happen today?
No. Are you sure?
Please, I said I'm fine.
Good.
What are we having for supper?
I haven't decided yet.
What time's Maghrib? I'll check.
Spence? Yeah?
Was Karl's letter to Naz in the original Missing Persons file?
No, it wasn't.
I want to know what was in that letter. Why was it written to Naz
and not to his family? I don't know.
It was the last memento Gideon had of his son.
It's possible he kept it.
The letter that Karl sent, the one that said he was travelling...
did you show it to the police?
I wish I hadn't. That's when they stopped looking,
said he was an adult, could do as he pleased.
Do you have it?
Can I have it back?
Lisbetta wanted to bury it
with all the other things.
Have mercy on us, Lord Jesus, I pray that you have mercy on us.
Please, heavenly Father, oh, protect my family,
protect my son, heavenly Father.
Oh, precious Lord, oh, yes, please have mercy on us, yes, yes, yes...
I think I've got something.
No! No!
Ok. Come on. No, please! Please, don't! Spence, get her out of here.
Don't!
No! Leave us alone. Let it be.
Kurta. Kurta.
There's something else.
What have you got? Books.
They're all about Islam.
Train tickets.
Four of them.
Manchester, 12th of October. One way.
Hey.
Two phones. I'll take care of those.
The Koran.
She isn't right.
These will heal faster than she will.
You never said anything about this before. Why not?
I don't know.
Do you believe in evil?
Yes.
She says evil took Karl away.
She was a good woman before.
This has ruined her.
I don't know what to do.
Mr Barclay, do you recognise
any of the people in this photograph?
They look like some of his friends from university but
I can't remember their names.
Kareem Rashid?
Yes, I remember that name.
Kareem?
Karl, Naz, me, Mohammed and Aboud.
They were friends? They were then, yeah.
Then? Did something change?
Course it did. Karl went away, Mohammed and Aboud left London around the same time.
I haven't seen Naz since then.
This was a moment in time.
Mohammed and Aboud left; they just abandoned their studies?
They weren't students. They were part of the Islamic Students' Union?
You didn't have to be enrolled to be a member.
They joined us in our prayers.
They weren't particularly devout.
More interested in having a good time really.
We found your Koran and a number of other books at Karl's.
You found them? I left them there and, when I went back for them,
Karl's mother screamed at me.
She threatened me with a knife.
Was Karl there? No, he'd left by then to go travelling. Were you surprised that he'd gone?
No. Surprised that he didn't tell me, but not surprised that he'd left.
He wanted to explore his faith.
I imagine that was very difficult at home. His mother was a...
What?
He would've had a lot of pressure over his conversion.
You helped him convert?
To practice Islam correctly is to embrace peace.
The al-fatiha was revealed to the prophet Mohammed, by angel Gibril.
Karl, can you lead us?
Bismillhi r-ramni r-ram
Al hamdi lillhi rabbi l-'lamn.
Al hamdu" lillhi rabbi l-'lamn.
Al hamdu. Al hamdu lillhi rabbi l-'lamn.
All praise and thanks belongs to Allah.
I had been helping him.
As a friend. You helped him with the religious aspect
or was there a political agenda as well?
What? All converts are terrorists?
Not all Muslims are radicals.
We found four one-way train tickets to Manchester and four tickets for
the football match at Old Trafford. And this means?
Oh, for a white man, it means he likes football.
For a Muslim, it means he's going to blow up a stadium?
Would it be possible to have my Koran back, please?
It was a gift from my mother.
So, the main question is did Karl Barclay write this letter?
The envelope, the postmark appears to be legitimate.
It's the 19th of October, 2005 from Mount Pleasant so London.
Disappeared on the 8th,
body is found on the 12th,
letter's sent on the 19th. Yeah, now the handwriting.
We asked the medical school for copies of his work for comparison.
The exemplars suggest that the overall form is consistent so size,
shape, slant of the letters, the proportion, the beginnings
and endings of the letters.
The formation of the 'S' is unusual and consistent across the exemplars.
And the bow of the 'R' and the 'P' are a match.
We also have fingerprint matches on the letter and on the envelope
but the saliva on the envelope isn't his.
So, not only did he not send the letter, he didn't seal it either?
No. There's also something odd about the text.
He's spelt the name of his college incorrectly and the name of his
brother, Jakob; he's spelt it with a 'c' instead of with a 'k'.
But the guy was under duress, he was having his chest sliced open.
It wouldn't make any difference. The spelling of family names is overlearned...
it's an automatic action.
It's highly unlikely it would be incorrect.
There are six spelling mistakes in total.
In every other piece of writing we have by Karl he made zero mistakes.
And it was these mistakes which led me to go in a different direction...
one that examined his intention and his state of mind.
So is the letter written by him or is it not written by him?
Look at this.
Help me.
Did you ever torture anyone when you worked in Counter Terrorism?
No. I mean,
you can tell me. It won't leave this room. I mean...
I've done things. You might've.
I haven't.
Ok.
Is that it?
Yeah.
Ok. What do you think happened? I don't know, I don't know.
I can't see how he was murdered at the reservoir and for CCTV not to pick it up.
A white kurta in a backpack,
tickets to an England game at Old Trafford, one-way train ticket
to Manchester, he lives in London, he doesn't like football.
They were a gift he never got to give.
Two pay as you go mobiles wrapped up in a prayer mat?
He used to steal phones at Salat at the mosque.
DNA that didn't go on the database? Clerical error.
Well, it's all possible, yeah.
Look, his brother's a drug dealer... it's a punishment murder,
hostage, extortion, all possible.
Why is he in the reservoir?
I don't know.
Do you think he was tortured? Yeah.
Can you make a call for me?
Can you call
the people you know...
and see if they know anything...
about him?
The British don't torture.
Can I buy you a drink? Sure.
Doesn't mean you can talk to me, though.
Sorry I'm late.
I have, however, managed to get you a little something.
I'm used to living off crumbs.
He was on the watch list.
Why?
That would be rather more of a snack.
I don't know. Someone made a phone call.
Thanks. For you, not a problem.
Don't think I have a soft spot for you. Cheers.
Yeah, I got the... Phone records?
Yeah. Legwinski made two calls around half past ten yesterday morning. Number in the U. S.?
Yeah. In North Carolina. Yeah.
About ten thirty-six. Four.
Quicker than I thought. How long was the call?
Sixteen minutes. Getting the story straight with Symonds. The second?
Mobile number in the UK. Lasted about thirty seconds.
Numbers?
Find out who owns Protect & Serve. Right... yeah...
Yeah?
Good boy. Go on. Off you go. Go on.
Your little boy?
Naz Ahmed? Yes.
It's nice that you have a son.
Shows hope for the future.
We all need that hope.
You haven't been speaking to the police, have you?
No. They might want to speak to you.
Won't be a good idea.
Not that I think you did anything wrong. On the contrary, it's just,
some people might not think that way.
And you have so much to lose.
But I don't need to tell you that.
Are you on your way to work at the children's centre?
The thing is,
it's so easy to accuse someone.
You, for instance. And it's so hard to deny it.
It's so hard to prove you're not a threat.
People spend years in prison doing that.
He's a beautiful boy. Needs his mother.
See you around.
You! You killed him!! What are you doing with this, huh?
Take off that hat now!
You killed him! You! You!
They killed our boy! They killed him!!
They killed our boy!! Stop it, stop it, stop it! I'm so sorry.
They killed him...they killed him...
Boyd...
So Karl Barclay's name was on a list.
That's the information I was given, in confidence.
What kind of list? A watch list.
Potential threat. Wouldn't it be easier to make them wear golden crescents on their lapels?
You're forgetting how anxious we all were in 2005...
London had been bombed.
Big night last night?
No, not particularly.
What's going on with you? Nothing going on with me. I'm fine.
I can see that.
Right, well that's all I know. That's all you know?
He's on a watch list, ends up dead, that's all you know or that's all they'll tell you?
You asked me to have a look. I looked. It was a favour.
They didn't watch him close enough, did they?!
You don't play?
No. I don't play.
You know something?
Or you need something?
Karl was on a watch list. We're all on watch lists.
No, someone thought he was a terrorist. Karl?
Bollocks! Look, Karl used to tell me...
Islam is a religion of peace.
Yeah? Piece of ass!
You think that's funny? No, no. I was joking...
You think that's funny? I was joking, I was joking, I was joking! I thought he was going to kill me.
Why would anyone think that he was a terrorist?
I watch how people look at me when I get on the tube.
They're thinking I'm gonna hurt them... feels good.
Feels like I got the juice.
Now a young, black man with a Islam uniform with a Islam crew must be dangerous.
So, just a prejudice?
Yeah. That's it.
That's the word for it.
Nothing you remember, either of you two?
Hm?
Betta wasn't happy when his friends came around.
Thought they led him astray.
You get them out of my house.
You get them out now!! Mama! Mama!
They're unclean! Get away from them, you hear me?
Get out! Get out of my house!
Get! Mama. Mama! Mama! Mama!
Mama, are you all right? I'm sorry. Mama... Mama!
Karl was simple...he was so...
clever, but simple when it came to people.
Always wanted people to like him.
Somebody didn't like him.
Did they hurt him? Yeah. Bad?
Lisbetta?
Policeman said Karl was on some sort of list.
Allah... Allah.
Are you listening to me, Lisbetta?
Please, Lisbetta. He's gone.
I'm tired of it now. I'm so tired.
Colossians Five, Twenty-Two says we should abstain
from all forms of evil!
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! We need to turn away from evil!
Allah... Allah...
He was evil!
I had to stop him.
They took him from me.
These people he brought here.
They were his friends. Oh, no!
They brought Beelzebub into our house!
He wasn't Karl any more.
That is why I called them.
You called the police?
I told them they were coming here whispering in the dark,
talking in their tongues.
Stop talking like this! You betrayed our son!
Right, Protect & Serve is owned by Horizon Solutions Limited
which, in turn, is owned by North Carolina Poultry.
North Carolina? Yeah. And that is owned by Blue Ridge Corporation also of North Carolina.
Symonds. Yeah. I tried to find out if he worked for any of them... brick wall. So Legwinski lied...
they're both working for the same company.
PHONE RINGS
Boyd...
I killed them.
Karl and Gideon.
I killed them both.
We need to turn away from evil!
They brought Beelzebub into our house.
whispering in the dark...
talking in their tongues. He wasn't Karl any more. He was evil.
We need to repent of our sins!
I had to.
To save us.
Please don't hurt him! I'm begging you! Tell me.
I don't know. Tell me who!
Karl Barclay was, apparently, a would-be bomber.
Were you part of it? Eh? Was you part of it?
Why were you running away when we came to your house?
They told me not to speak to anyone.
Who did?
He used me. He knew I would warn him if he was in danger.
And they will do anything they can to disarm him.
So, who would grab him? Who would actually do that?
Anything? No sign of any disturbance.
You tried his phone, right? No signal.
I can't, I can't!
