[ Mid-tempo music plays ]
Adam.
It's me.
Adam.
Adam?
Stop playing. It's not funny.
[ Line ringing ]
MAN: Hello, emergency services. Which service do you require?
Police. The police, yes.
-[ Beep ] -Hello?
What's the address of the emergency?
A-A boat on the Thames near Jessops Lane.
It's called Nieuwe Zorg.
What's the phone number you're calling from?
-I-I don't know. -What's happened?
He's dead! I don't know! He's dead!
Okay, just try and stay as calm as you can for me.
-What's your name? -I-I can't.
-Police! -Police!
Anyone here?!
Control, this is 874 confirming a dead body.
What have we got?
White male, early 30s.
Visible injury to the back of the head.
The woman who called wouldn't leave her name.
Can we go in yet?
Yeah, just been given the all clear.
Been dead eight, nine hours max.
Blow to the back of the head with a blunt object.
He's tucked up neatly.
It's like...
...he's been placed in the bed with some care.
Dent in the pillow.
Suggests he had company.
VIVIENNE: Lipstick mark.
Fits with the loving presentation.
-[ Cellphone rings ] -[ Gasps ]
-[ Ringing stops ] -That phone made the 999 call.
-I.D.? -Adam and Sasha Garrick.
He's a doctor and she's a nurse
at St. Martha's University Hospital.
MAN: How was your shift?
WOMAN: [ Gasps ] Oh!
You look like you've seen a ghost.
I-I just thought you'd still be sleeping.
No.
Been up for ages.
ROB: There's blood all the way up the stairs.
He's been moved from the kitchen into the bed.
Why, though?
They weren't trying to conceal him.
Why risk even more DNA contamination?
Pestle's missing.
Or is it mortar?
Do you know, I can never remember which one's which.
It's weighty enough.
Yeah.
The hospital have confirmed the victim's wife
is working a night shift.
Arrived at 7:00 p.m.
[ Indistinct talking ]
Uh, Mrs. Garrick?
I'm Detective Sergeant Vivienne Cole, and this is --
You're police officers, yeah.
Is there somewhere we can talk?
I'm a nurse.
I know all about delivering bad news.
Is it my mum?
I'm very sorry, but your husband, Adam...
Is all right?
He's been in an accident or something,
but he's all right, isn't he?
Adam's been killed.
You're not in uniform. What department are you from?
We're a murder investigation team, Mrs. Garrick.
You're telling me Adam's been murdered?
Yeah. He was found dead this morning.
Where?
On your houseboat.
ROB: This is the anonymous 999 call.
WOMAN: Police. The police, yes.
-[ Beep ] -Hello?
MAN: What's the address of the emergency?
WOMAN: A-A boat on the Thames near Jessops Lane.
It's called Nieuwe Zorg.
MAN: What's the phone number you're calling from?
-WOMAN: I-I don't know. -MAN: What's happened?
WOMAN: He's dead! I don't know! He's dead!
MAN: Okay, just try and stay as calm as you can for me.
-What's your name? -I-I can't.
[ Dial tone ]
Goes without saying we need to identify the caller
as soon as possible.
The victim received a call from someone called Bob at 21:59.
The 999 call was made at 7:45 a.m.,
so Bob may have been the last person to have spoken to him.
Let's find Bob, then.
It was his dad's funeral yesterday.
He had a massive row with his brother.
Do you know what they argued about?
I don't know.
They hadn't seen each other for years.
They're like chalk and cheese.
Adam's probably the most driven person that I've ever met,
and Sammy's never held down a job for more than a week.
Do you have contact details for him?
No.
Adam didn't get on with him.
Anne will. Adam's Mum.
Okay, um, so they had a big row, and then what?
We left.
-What time? -5:00ish.
We had to get back anyway. My -- My shift started at 7:00.
I didn't want to leave Adam at home on his own,
but he said he was fine.
He'll have operations today. They'll have to be canceled.
He's just just been made clinical lead.
Someone will need to sort it.
Have you been back to the houseboat since?
No.
WOMAN: Police. The police, yes.
-[ Beep ] -Hello?
MAN: What's the address of the emergency?
WOMAN: A-A boat on the Thames near Jessops Lane.
It's called Nieuwe Zorg.
MAN: What's the phone number you're calling from?
-WOMAN: I-I don't know. -MAN: What's happened?
WOMAN: He's dead! I don't know! He's dead!
MAN: Okay, just try and stay as calm as you can for me.
-What's your name? -I-I can't.
[ Dial tone ]
A woman made this call at 7:45 this morning from your boat.
Do you know who the caller is?
Eleanor Kemp.
And do you know of any reason why she would be
with your husband this morning?
She's just married Xavier.
Adam was their best man.
Can you tell us anything about the relationship between them?
Between Eleanor and Adam?
Friends.
He's friends with Xavier, really.
Xavier's a pediatrician too.
I introduced Eleanor to Xavier.
She's a family friend.
I used to babysit her.
Why would...?
I can't believe she'd do that.
[ Sobs ]
[ Crying ]
Okay, Sasha I.D.'d the caller as Eleanor Kemp,
wife of Adam's good friend and colleague Xavier Kemp.
You played her the call?
So you told her her husband was dead,
and then you dropped the bombshell
that he'd been having an affair with his best mate's wife?
Well, I didn't know who he was having the affair with.
That's not the point.
I got the result.
Right, we're off to speak to the victim's mother,
see if she can shed any light on the relationship
between her two sons.
And to tell her her son's dead.
My husband just died.
We heard. We're so sorry.
Six months from being told he was dying.
To the day.
Married him when I was 19.
Take a seat.
Um, the funeral was yesterday.
That's why the house is such a tip.
I'm -- I'm sorry to tell you we have some difficult news.
Unfortunately, your son Adam
was found dead this morning at his home.
And we have reason to believe that he was murdered.
BILLIE: Is there any other family I could call for you?
Sammy.
Do you have a number for him?
He doesn't have one.
Doesn't have a proper home.
I tried.
Fell in with a bad crowd, started drinking.
I tried, honest.
We're not judging you.
Charles, my husband,
he said enough was enough.
ELEANOR: Hello?
MAN: What's the address of the emergency?
ELEANOR: A-A boat on the Thames near Jessops Lane.
It's called Nieuwe Zorg.
MAN: What's the phone number you're calling from?
-ELEANOR: I-I don't know. -MAN: What's happened?
ELEANOR: He's dead! I don't know! He's dead!
MAN: Okay, just try and stay...
Who's dead?
-What's your name? -I-I can't.
[ Dial tone ]
We were told Adam and Sammy had a falling out
at your husband's funeral.
Who told you?
Did you see it?
Well, they were always bickering when they were growing up.
It was nothing out of the ordinary.
[ Sniffles ] My poor boy.
[ Sobs ]
My poor little boy.
Eleanor Kemp, I'm arresting you
on suspicion of the murder of Adam Garrick.
Whoa! What the hell is going on?
You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something which you later rely on in court.
Anything you do say may be given in evidence.
Come on. Let's go.
[ Sniffles ]
Thank goodness Charles didn't have to deal with this.
We need to speak to Sammy.
How did you track him down for the funeral?
Uh...
The hostel.
Yeah, where is it?
Um, King's Cross.
I have it written down somewhere.
The mobile number saved in the victim's phone as "Bob"
belongs to Eleanor Kemp.
She's admitted to making the 999 call.
Okay, you keep trawling the hostels for Sammy,
and let's go and see what Eleanor has to say for herself.
I rang Adam just before 10:00.
He sounded really upset,
so I said I'd go over in the morning when I came off shift.
I'm a nurse at St. Martha's.
Sasha was working extra hours,
and I didn't like the idea of him being alone.
Can you explain why your number is saved as "Bob"
in Adam's phone?
Is it?
Or why you wouldn't give your name when you made the 999 call?
I didn't kill him. He was already dead.
Look, I know what you're thinking.
I love Xavier.
You should never have played that phone call
in front of Xavier.
It was confidential.
He wasn't home when I started it.
It was unintentional.
He shouldn't have done that, should he?
It was bound to come out at some stage in the investigation.
I should have been the one to tell him.
I'm gonna make a complaint.
Well, you're totally within your rights.
But let's talk about it after the interview, okay,
and then you can explain in detail
how you got involved with your husband's best friend
and -- and how we should have handled that.
I've trawled all the hostels and hospitals.
No sign of Sammy Garrick.
Yeah, needle in a haystack, finding a homeless person.
I did have another idea.
The witness in the Tom Pryce case -- Amber.
She's in and out of hostels and might be able to help.
It's a long shot, but give it a go.
I got off the DLR around 7:30 and walked to the boat.
I thought he was mucking around, pretending to be asleep.
So I got into bed with him.
He was cold. It was horrible. [ Sobs ]
If he was already dead, how did you get in?
[ Sighs ]
He gave me a set of keys for whenever Sasha was working.
Did Xavier or Sasha know about your affair with Adam?
No!
No, no, absolutely not, honestly.
There's no way either of them knew.
Until all of this.
I thought you'd be in bed.
Early bird.
I didn't think I'd hear from you again.
You're a witness to a murder.
I like you, but it wouldn't be right.
For now.
I can wait.
So...
You wanted to see me.
We're looking for someone.
The last place he stayed was a hostel in King's Cross,
but he could be squatting, sleeping rough.
I wondered if you might be able to help me out.
Business, not pleasure, then.
Like I said, we can't.
You can't.
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have called.
Wait. What's his name?
Where are we at, Rob?
Right, there's four sets of prints found
on the kitchen counter.
Sasha and Adam's, Eleanor Kemp,
and Sammy Garrick -- Adam's brother.
His prints came up on PNC.
The elusive brother.
ROB: And a clear size-11 shoe print
was lifted from the deck by the front door.
Doesn't appear to fit any of the victim's shoes, though.
Where's this?
This is Jessops Lane.
The road leading down to the towpath.
That's Xavier Kemp, Eleanor's husband,
at 7:40 this morning.
DAVID: What's he doing there?
Maybe he knew about the affair all along, caught them at it.
Do we know where he is?
Outside, waiting for his wife.
Let's lift him.
His dad had died.
I thought he might need to talk.
So early?
Once we're at work, there's never time.
I saw Eleanor leave and assumed Sasha must have been there.
I didn't want to disturb them, so I walked home.
It's quite a walk.
I've run the London Marathon, mate.
I can manage a few miles.
Look, what's Eleanor saying? Have you released her?
-Thanks for this. -Yeah, well, I have my uses.
Proper digs.
Original features, high ceilings.
Bit drafty, though!
Have you ever had to sleep here?
Careful.
That caring thing you do can give off the wrong vibe.
Come on, then.
-I'll take it from here. -Oh, please!
As if they're gonna talk to a copper.
How would they know?
Yeah, right.
-Amber, don't... -Hello?!
Hello?!
Right.
Sammy. Garrick.
Sammy? Anyone know Sammy Garrick?
Hello? Does anyone know Sammy?
Sammy Garrick? No?
All right, mate, do you know Sammy Garrick?
Sammy?
Sammy Garrick?
He's going outside!
Control, urgent assistance! T.D.C. Billie Fitzgerald.
I'm arresting you for the murder of your brother!
You don't have to say anything...
-Move away! -Get off me!
Move away!
Sammy Garrick, I'm arresting you for obstructing a police officer
in the execution of their duties.
You do not have to say anything,
but anything you do say may be given in evidence.
What are you talking about my brother?
[ Sirens wailing ]
Don't you ever do anything like that again.
Huh? I'll take that as a thank-you.
How can you give me all this grief?
I got him for you, didn't I?
Yeah, I could have handled it myself.
"Cheers, Amber. I'm so happy you were there to help."
You shouldn't be anywhere near this.
If Sammy makes a complaint, I'm in deep trouble.
It's not funny.
That's my sarge.
This was a mistake.
All right, Billie?
Yeah, fine.
Nice work finding him.
So Sammy's shoe print is a match for the fresh one we found
on the deck of the boat.
CCTV?
Nothing yet.
I still think Xavier's our front-runner.
I think he killed Adam, left, and watched Eleanor arrive.
But why would Xavier tuck him up like that
if he thought that Adam was sleeping with his wife?
See if the medical examiner
thinks Sammy's sober enough to interview yet.
Maybe we've got two front-runners.
BILLIE: So, Sammy,
when was the last time you saw your brother?
He stropped off about 5:00ish.
VIVIENNE: From the funeral?
Why did he strop off?
You know this, or else I wouldn't be sitting here.
The usual.
Him telling me what a loser I am,
how I've got no one else to blame but myself
for getting into drink after I'd been inside.
So you were angry with him when he left?
Not angry enough to kill him.
You -- You haven't seen each other for years. Why?
He's an idiot.
Were you close as kids?
We got on okay.
What happened?
-Our lives took different paths. -Meaning?
Look, I don't know, but I -- I didn't kill him, okay?
I don't -- I don't even know where he lives.
Your shoe print was found on the deck of your brother's boat,
and your fingerprint was lifted from a glass inside the boat,
and you've just told us you don't know where he lives.
And we -- we didn't mention that your brother's body
was found at his home address, but you seem to know that.
Okay, I -- I went there,
but I swear he was already dead.
How did you get in?
The door was open.
Oh, so someone else killed him and left the door wide open?
Well, why didn't you tell us that from the start?
'Cause I knew you'd try and pin it on me.
It can't be happening again,
I ain't taking the blame for him again.
I ain't.
I ain't. I ain't.
I ain't. Ain't taking the blame.
So Sammy's admitted to being there,
has form for ABH,
a troubled history with his brother,
and a fingerprint and shoe print match at the scene.
And he lied continually throughout the interview.
He's about as solid a suspect as you can get.
He obviously had problems with his brother.
Why did he tuck him up so lovingly?
I'm not as convinced about Xavier now.
All we've got on him is CCTV footage of when Eleanor left.
I mean, there's no forensics placing him in the boat
or on his clothes.
What about Eleanor's clothes?
There's nothing.
Let's bail Xavier and Eleanor.
How about you start telling me the truth, honey? Hmm?
Five months!
You only managed five months!
I genuinely thought you loved me. I'm an idiot.
I do! I love you so much!
What did you do?
What?
What did you do to Adam?!
You cow!
You crazy cheating cow!
Come here!
Hello? Help me, please!
Yeah, the -- the multistory car park
just off Vallance Road.
Eleanor called. Xavier's lost it.
[ Siren wails ]
They're in a car park off Vallance Road.
Is she hurt?
No idea.
[ Gasps ]
No! No!
Help! Help!
[ Tires screech ]
Were you seeing him before we got married?
Don't lie to me!
Please, Xavier, don't do this.
I'm sorry! It was a stupid mistake!
I wish it had never happened!
Please, no! I'm sorry! I love you!
I'm sorry!
For better or worse. Remember?
It doesn't get much worse than this, does it?
[ Tires screech ]
Help!
-Please! -Stop! Stop!
All right, Xavier, calm down.
She thinks I killed Adam, but I didn't.
-I didn't. I'm not a killer! -DAVID: Okay, mate.
We can sort this out, all right?
He was so clever. It was him, not me.
Don't blame it all on Adam!
He could make anyone do anything.
I hate him for tricking me,
for making me do something I didn't want to to do!
Just come away from the edge. All right?
She's scared. Come on.
DAVID: Let her go, Xavier. Let her go.
Come on.
[ Tires screech ]
[ Siren wails ]
[ Tires screech ]
[ Siren stops ]
How did Adam feel about his brother, Sammy?
He didn't talk about Sammy much.
All I ever really got was how stupid and weak he was.
I saw on file that Adam and Sammy were arrested together
for dangerous driving offenses when they were teenagers.
It put him off forever.
Adam never touched alcohol after that.
And Sammy said that he didn't start drinking
until after he was inside.
Well, I find that hard to believe.
Okay.
Why would Sammy lie about when he started drinking?
There is something.
Sammy was muttering weird stuff on his way back to custody.
He was like, "This can't be happening. Not again.
I ain't taking the blame for him this time."
Helpful.
Cheers.
What did you mean --
"I'm not taking the blame for him this time"?
Nothing.
Do you know who killed Adam?
You were there.
I don't -- I don't know anything.
Did you see someone else kill Adam?
No.
Come on, you weren't on your own.
Who was with you? Sammy, what did you see?
Shut up!
Okay, I killed him.
I killed him.
The CPS have agreed to charge Xavier
for what he did to Eleanor,
but I'm convinced he had nothing to do with Adam's murder.
Sammy confessed.
Well, that's a result.
Yeah, but he's lying.
What I don't know is -- is why.
Well, Xavier and Eleanor said that Adam was very persuasive.
He could make anyone do anything.
I mean, Eleanor is baffled at how she ended up
even having an affair with him.
Seems like he was a skilled manipulator.
You've got evidence and a confession
What more do you want?
An explanation.
Do you know what I think?
I think back when you were teenagers,
Adam was driving, and you took the hit.
I've checked the records.
Adam was five times over the limit, and you were sober.
And you didn't start drinking
until you'd spent time in juvenile detention.
Adam was good at manipulating you, wasn't he?
But what I don't get is why you took the blame for him
for such a huge thing.
'Cause he was clever. He was -- He was going to uni.
I had, um -- I had less to lose.
It weren't a big deal,
but then the girl in the car we hit,
she died three weeks later.
All blew up.
Adam said he'd kill himself if he went inside.
So you've resented him for years.
Does anyone else know the truth?
Well, that goes for motive,
but, you know, what I don't understand is the timing.
I mean, why did you choose
the day of your dad's funeral to do it?
I was drunk.
Did you love him?
Adam?
Nah.
I hated him. He, uh -- He ruined my life.
How did you leave your brother after you killed him?
In bed.
Under the cover.
Why?
'Cause it wouldn't be so upsetting
when his missus found him.
Okay.
[ Cellphone vibrates ]
Do you know what? I've actually just seen her.
Thank you.
Hello, Sasha.
Hello again.
Um, I-I did try you at home.
I need to keep busy.
Yeah, it's a shock. I know.
What? My husband being murdered?
Or the fact he was having an affair with someone
I thought was a friend?
Sorry.
None of this is your fault.
Do you have any idea of who killed Adam yet?
Well, I-I'm getting there.
When, um, Adam and his brother, Sammy,
had an argument at the funeral...
I told you. I don't know what they were fighting about.
But i-it was pretty intense?
Very.
Do you know how it ended?
Um, Adam's mum had to split them up.
Anne?
Do you think she heard what they were fighting about?
She must have done.
Yeah.
Okay.
The body was -- was tucked up in -- in bed
and -- and the DNA from the lipstick
didn't match Eleanor or Sasha.
It was a kiss on the forehead. That is a maternal gesture.
It has to be the mother.
Yeah, I-I think that Sammy is covering for her
the way he covered for his brother.
Why would she kill her own son?
'Cause she found out that Sammy took the blame for Adam.
Maybe that's what they were arguing about
at the funeral, and she overheard.
Exactly.
All right. Tread carefully.
She's just lost two family members. If you're wrong...
No, I'm not.
You all right?
Oh. Um, my neighbor Pauline has invited me up for supper.
She didn't like the thought of me being on my own.
We have a suspect in custody.
Sammy.
My Sammy?
He's admitted to killing Adam.
He didn't kill him. He didn't.
Look, you just have to believe me.
You seem very sure.
Sammy had nothing to do with it.
It was me.
Let him go.
I'm the one who did it.
What did you use?
You'll find it in the kitchen.
Anne Garrick, I'm arresting you
on suspicion of the murder of Adam Garrick.
You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense
if you do not mention when questioned
something which you later rely on in court.
I'm a bad mother.
A bad, useless mother.
A good mother would have seen it.
Seen what?
Adam lapped up his da's affection.
No guilt, nothing.
All those years, all that time.
Sammy tried to tell me once that it wasn't him
should have gone to prison.
I threw him out.
It was Adam, not Sam.
When did you find out?
They were fighting at the funeral.
I blamed Sammy, as usual,
but I wanted to sort it out once and for all.
So that's why you went to Adam's houseboat?
You see, Charles had given up, but I didn't want to give up.
There was only the three of us.
I don't have any other family.
And that's when it all come out.
And Adam laughed.
He laughed!
I was so angry.
I wanted to stop him!
And I picked up the nearest thing to me,
and it was one of them things that you bash up spices with.
[ Crying ] I didn't mean to kill him.
I wouldn't hurt my son.
[ Sniffles ] I don't know what happened.
I was just so angry.
Then what did you do?
[ Sniffles ]
Well...
I didn't want to leave him on the floor.
I couldn't leave him like that.
And Sammy was outside sitting on the deck.
He was drunk.
Didn't realize at first that Adam was dead.
I wanted to put him to bed.
He was my little boy.
Didn't want him to get cold.
Some new evidence has been found
by the officers investigating my wife's disappearance.
Now, as we all know,
Sarah's bag was found at Tom Pryce's flat.
Question has always been, how did it get there?
New CCTV footage shows a woman
walking towards the flat carrying Sarah's bag.
Now, it's not the best picture,
but do either of you recognize her?
No.
Obviously we need to I.D. her as a matter of urgency.
You okay?
Yeah, fine. Just knackered.
Hi, Amber. It's me.
Can you give me a ring back, please?
It's really, really important.
