The 24th of February, 2021. 359 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,960 On the 24th of February, I had Coco Pops and tinned peaches 360 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,800 for breakfast, watched Lorraine and Homes Under The Hammer, 361 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,960 before walking to City Airport to watch for planes. 362 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,960 I returned to my flat at 20:55 363 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,960 in time for Kirstie and Phil on Love It Or List It. 364 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,960 That's very detailed, Marty. 365 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,160 Can I ask you why you have never told us this before? 366 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:51,960 You never asked me. 367 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,160 Out of interest, can I ask you what you did on the 23rd? 368 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,960 On the 23rd of February, I had Coco Pops and tinned peaches 369 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,960 for breakfast, watched Lorraine and Homes Under The Hammer, 370 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,960 before walking to City Airport to watch for planes. 371 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,480 I returned to my flat at 20:35 for The Real CSI at 21:00. 372 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,960 I'd put good money on him being on that airport CCTV 373 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,960 exactly when he said he was. Mm. 374 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,960 Boss? 375 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,960 The cyclist's daughter dropped his diary in. Oh, yeah? 376 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,960 Like he said, it was 3:30 in the morning 377 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,960 when he witnessed the disposal, but it was 3:30 on the 24th. 378 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,160 No way. 379 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,960 Which obviously begs a number of questions. 380 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,960 Yeah, just a few. Yeah. The most obvious one of which 381 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,960 is how the hell does a man leave a voicemail on someone's phone... 382 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,960 ..when his dismembered body had been thrown into the marsh 383 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:56,960 ten hours before? 384 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:10,960 So, these... 385 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,960 according to DVLA, are the five number plates 386 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,960 at the time of the murder of the cars of Asif Syed, 387 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,960 Melinda Ricci, Marty Baines's dad, Gerry Cooper and Juliet Cooper. 388 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,960 All pretty anonymous saloons. And this... 389 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,320 ..is our murder car. Now, it's possible, I guess, 390 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,960 that the killer could've acquired fake plates, 391 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,960 but that would have required a lot of prior planning, 392 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,960 suggests premeditation. This wasn't premeditated. 393 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,960 No. So my best guess is they altered their own plates 394 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,960 with marker pen or tape or whatever. 395 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,960 Changed an F to an E, a three or a six to an eight, etc. 396 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,960 So basically, which of these five plates 397 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,960 could most easily be changed to match that one? Exactly. 398 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,000 So, who's good at Wordle? 399 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,000 It's obviously not that one or that one. 400 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,000 Can't be this one, either. Yeah... 401 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,960 Well, two Fs can be Es. 402 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,960 Yeah, and that P's gotta be that B. 403 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,960 Yeah, so it's obviously this one, isn't it? 404 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,960 The M stays the same, the C changes to an O. 405 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,160 The five to a six. Seven stays the same. 406 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,960 Two Es and a B. 407 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:12,960 So, whose car is that? 408 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,960 That car belonged to... 409 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,960 ..Juliet Cooper. 410 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,160 DS BOULTING WHISTLES 411 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,160 Hass?
