1
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:18,719
Adelaide?

2
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,240
Not now, Wilfred.
Can't you see I'm on the warpath?

3
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,960
INDISTINCT CHATTER

4
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:28,640
Lisa!
Not now, Dan.

5
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,800
Morning (!)

6
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,960
Ma'am, I... Oh, erm...

7
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,279
I should've... knocked.
LISA KNOCKS ON DOOR

8
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,920
Don't mind me,
I'm, er, just on my way.

9
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,519
So, er,
what is it that's so important

10
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,520
that made you feel compelled
to barge in here without knocking?

11
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,879
I wanted to let you know I am
interested in that promotion, Ma'am.

12
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,720
I figured if I didn't tell you
straightaway, then...

13
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,400
I didn't want you
to be in any doubt.

14
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,600
Are you sure about that?

15
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,200
I know you've got a lot going on
at home.

16
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,919
Now, I want you to go into this
with your eyes wide open, Lisa.

17
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,239
It'll mean a lot more hours,
a lot more responsibility.

18
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,519
I know, Ma'am. And there will be
other opportunities.

19
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,439
You know,
no-one will think the less of you.

20
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,480
I will.

21
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,959
The proudest day of my life.

22
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:33,399
I'd never forgive myself if I let go
of this opportunity, Ma'am.

23
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,080
Glad to hear it.

24
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:40,080
You know, I think you have
real leadership potential, Lisa.

25
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,119
So, all I need now

26
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,679
is for you to give me your
written expression of your interest.

27
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,160
Of course.

28
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,400
Thank you, Ma'am.
Mm-hm.

29
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,000
Can I mention it to DS Winters?

30
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,040
Let's leave that for now...
until we know it's confirmed.

31
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,680
I wish to know the meaning of this.

32
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,679
It is a letter from my therapist

33
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,119
inviting you to take part
in a joint session with me.

34
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,119
Don't be so literal, Jasper.
I can read as well as you can.

35
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,559
I demand to know
why it has been sent.

36
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,679
Dr Helena believes
that you can help me excavate

37
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,959
the root of my hostility
towards women.

38
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,160
Your hostility towards me,
I think you mean.

39
00:02:31,640 --> 00:02:34,239
Am I to conclude that you
are refusing to take part, Mother?

40
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,440
And give you another reason
to resent me? Heavens, no.

41
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,719
Ah, yes, a homework assignment.

42
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,399
Dr Helena has suggested
that we come prepared with a list

43
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,519
of one another's personality traits.

44
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:48,680
Both positive...

45
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,199
..and negative.

46
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,439
Dear boy, if you're gonna go
mano a mano with me,

47
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,439
you'll need to come better prepared
than that.

48
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,080
SHE LAUGHS

49
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,319
Your full attention, please,
ladies and gentlemen,

50
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,079
with immediate effect.

51
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,799
At the risk of exposing
your ignorance of current affairs,

52
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,800
can anyone apprise us
of the significance of today's date?

53
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,879
It's my birthday.
LAUGHTER

54
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,599
Then you have the honour
of sharing it

55
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,079
with the Emperor Ming
of the Han Dynasty,

56
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,039
the sadly underrated
Italian balladeer Sergio Endrigo

57
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,239
and the eminent criminologist
Robert D Keppel,

58
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,880
who helped identify the American
serial killer Ted Bundy.

59
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,280
And that is not the observation
I was hoping for.

60
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:29,079
Had you bothered to read
the Crown Court listings

61
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,079
as instructed, you would be aware

62
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,560
that the trial of Sean Hallett
begins today...

63
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,040
..not half a mile
from where I am standing.

64
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,799
On the March 9th last year,

65
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,719
officers were dispatched
to the property

66
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,440
when a silent intruder alarm was
triggered at 18 minutes past nine.

67
00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:53,679
Arriving at 9.34pm, they
encountered a vehicle on the drive,

68
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,040
later confirmed
to belong to the defendant.

69
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,679
When the officers
entered the building,

70
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,799
they came across the victim's body,
Vincent Soames.

71
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,159
He had suffered
a single gunshot wound to the chest

72
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,999
and was pronounced dead
at the scene.

73
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,079
The defendant, Sean Hallett,

74
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,279
was found
standing next to the victim's body.

75
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:12,879
He was arrested
and taken into custody.

76
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,359
A hunting rifle was found
in the immediate vicinity.

77
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,879
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,

78
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,239
you will hear expert witnesses
give evidence

79
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,079
that Vincent Soames was killed
with the rifle found at the scene.

80
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,119
You'll be presented with forensics

81
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,559
linking the defendant
to the murder weapon.

82
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,319
And you will also hear evidence from
a close associate of Sean Hallett's

83
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,440
that the weapon used to kill
Vincent Soames belonged to him.

84
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,879
You'll be asked to consider
a list of more than 50 items

85
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,519
recovered from Sean Hallett's
cottage in the wake of the murder.

86
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,759
It is the prosecution's contention
that these were stolen

87
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,479
from the Soames
during his nine years of employment

88
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,799
as groundsman and odd-jobs man
for their estate.

89
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,479
And lastly, you'll hear
from the victim's wife Hester

90
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,159
that her husband
meant to confront Sean Hallett

91
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,199
about her missing
diamond engagement ring

92
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,840
on the very night he was murdered.

93
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,479
Sounds like
it'll be over before lunch.

94
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,319
LAUGHTER

95
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,879
A facetious observation, but
an understandable one nevertheless.

96
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,079
The Crown Prosecution Service
would not have opted

97
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,039
to initiate proceedings
against Mr Hallett

98
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,519
had they not been convinced
that the investigating officers

99
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,519
had put forward a case backed
by compelling evidence of his guilt.

100
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,439
But, as regular attendees
of my lectures

101
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,359
will have understood by now,

102
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,279
evidence alone
is not always sufficient

103
00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:32,799
to determine the outcome
of an investigation.

104
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,959
It can be ambiguous, circumstantial,
contradictory.

105
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,879
Undue focus on one piece of evidence

106
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,199
can cause
the investigating authorities

107
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:48,440
to overlook others that might lead
to a different view of the case.

108
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,599
I bring this trial to your attention

109
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,279
as a case study in the pitfalls
of a criminal investigation

110
00:06:55,280 --> 00:06:57,319
that fails to marry
evidence gathering

111
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,679
with psychological insight.

112
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,519
Indeed,
the interpretation of evidence

113
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,719
without psychological understanding

114
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,080
is like the appreciation of music
without Johann Sebastian Bach.

115
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,279
Yes.

116
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,879
Why are we using this
as a case study

117
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,759
if we don't know
the outcome of the trial?

118
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,319
Because this murder predates my
consultancy with Cambridge Police,

119
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,239
and I wish it to be known
that I had nothing to do

120
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,519
with constructing
the case against Sean Hallett,

121
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,479
particularly when he is acquitted
of the murder of Vincent Soames,

122
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,239
as I believe he invariably will be.

123
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,279
Won't that be embarrassing,
Professor?

124
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,279
For the police officers involved?

125
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,519
I cannot say.

126
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,800
That is not an emotional state
with which I'm familiar.

127
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:42,759
PROSECUTOR: And as I was saying,

128
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,999
it is very important
that all the facts about the firearm

129
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,439
are laid out in detail for the jury.

130
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,839
What were you so desperate to speak
to the boss about this morning?

131
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,039
Nothing important.
..but also who used it.

132
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,079
Could've fooled me.

133
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,079
In layman's terms,
Detective Inspector Rabbit,

134
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,799
the defendant fingerprints were
found all over the murder weapon.

135
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,639
That's correct. Fingerprints were
found on the stock and the barrel.

136
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,279
The examination report
also indicated

137
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,639
an attempt to wipe the weapon clean
before we recovered it.

138
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,640
Thank you. No more questions.

139
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,439
Lock, stock and barrel,
Detective Inspector.

140
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,319
Perhaps you could explain
the different parts of the weapon

141
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:22,760
for the benefit of the jury.

142
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,079
The stock sits against the shoulder
when firing.

143
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,239
The barrel acts as a...

144
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,120
That's self-explanatory.
But the lock?

145
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,479
It's an archaic term that basically
means the firing mechanism.

146
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,279
Including the trigger.
That's correct.

147
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,279
So, fingerprints
on the stock and the barrel,

148
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,959
but no mention of the lock,
Detective Inspector.

149
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,599
Does that mean that none
of the defendant's fingerprints

150
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,080
were found on or around the trigger?

151
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,239
That's correct.

152
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,839
As I said, the forensics found

153
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,039
were consistent with an attempt
to wipe the weapon clean.

154
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,119
Or maybe a better explanation
is that Sean Hallett never fired it.

155
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:05,480
CROWD MURMURS

156
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,360
One more thing, Detective Inspector.

157
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:16,719
Was any gunpowder residue found
on the defendant's hands or clothes?

158
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,439
The presence of gunpowder residue
is no longer considered to be...

159
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,040
A simple yes or no will suffice.

160
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,440
No.

161
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,680
No more questions, Your Honour.

162
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,519
Maybe he washed his hands
before the police arrived.

163
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,079
A half-witted suggestion.

164
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,559
If he had time to wash his hands,

165
00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:41,399
he surely also had time
to escape the scene.

166
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,639
Will that be Hallett's defence? That
they can't prove he fired the gun?

167
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,479
We will have to wait and see,
but in his statement to police,

168
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,959
he was adamant
that Mr Soames' fatal injury

169
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,159
was sustained BEFORE he arrived.

170
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,399
What was even doing there
at ten o'clock at night?

171
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,079
Mr Hallett claims he was summoned
by an urgent call from his employer.

172
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,159
Is there any way of verifying that?

173
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,279
His wife Anya cooks and cleans
for the Soames.

174
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,639
She has confirmed that she was
watching television with her husband

175
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:08,759
when the call was placed.

176
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,720
STUDENT:
What about telephone records?

177
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,199
They confirm a call was made
from a landline owned by the Soames

178
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,719
to a mobile number registered
to Sean Hallett at 9.24pm.

179
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,439
That is six minutes after
the silent alarm was triggered.

180
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,480
Has Hallett said why Soames called?

181
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,839
He thought he'd heard noises
in the cellar,

182
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,439
but the light bulb was gone.

183
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,999
He wanted me to change it
and maybe check things out.

184
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,240
Did Mr Soames often ask you to do
things outside normal working hours?

185
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,880
There was no such thing as normal
working hours with the Soames.

186
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,320
They'd call at all hours,
especially him.

187
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,040
Expect me and Annie
to drop everything.

188
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,319
We didn't think we could say no.

189
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,400
It was made pretty clear
what the consequences would be.

190
00:10:55,560 --> 00:10:58,519
How long did it take you
to drive to the main house

191
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,319
after receiving the call?

192
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:01,760
A few minutes.

193
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,799
Our cottage is by the east gate,
about half a mile as the crow flies.

194
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,479
Did you have keys to the main house?
No.

195
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,439
Just the sheds and outhouses, but...

196
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,520
the kitchen door was open,
so I went in, and...

197
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,520
..and there he was.

198
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,239
WOMAN: Is there any chance
it was a burglary?

199
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,079
There were no signs of a break-in,
no tyre tracks,

200
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,559
foot marks
or unexpected fingerprints,

201
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:38,279
and nothing reported missing by
the Soames family in the aftermath.

202
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,319
Except for
the aforementioned diamond ring.

203
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,479
Is his IQ below average, Professor?

204
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:44,799
No more so than many here today.

205
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,559
It just seems pretty dumb
to commit a murder

206
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:48,920
when you know a panic alarm
has been triggered.

207
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,279
LISA: 'He wasn't aware
it had been installed.'

208
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,519
So Soames did it
without telling him.

209
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,760
After the ring went missing,
about ten days before the murder.

210
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,879
SHE SIGHS
I should go back.

211
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,320
Support Rabbit.

212
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,359
Are you all right, Lis?

213
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,879
You seem a bit on edge.
Out of sorts.

214
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,439
Have you been reading Cosmopolitan?

215
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,159
"17 signs you're dating
an emotionally intelligent person."

216
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,360
Ah, we're dating now, are we?

217
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,519
Nah, I thought you might be worried.

218
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,600
Worried?
About the professor.

219
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,599
No.

220
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,999
Brand vetoed his involvement
in any investigation

221
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,639
that predates his consultancy.

222
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,879
He's only seen a summary.

223
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,079
Still, it's not often
we find ourselves on opposing sides.

224
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,999
It's not our investigation, Dan.

225
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,439
We weren't involved
in investigating it.

226
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,440
Who says we're on opposing sides?

227
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,079
Oi. Your bag.
Ooh!

228
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,719
What's this?
That's a surprise. For tonight.

229
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,279
Tonight? Oh, can we say tomorrow?

230
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,119
I've got a pile of paperwork.
Yeah.

231
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,800
Yeah, me too. I'll see you later.

Oh, it's still early.

You're in early, Winters.
You too, boss.

Hoping to catch the worm?
No.

242
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,799
A word of advice, maybe.
Oh.

243
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:31,960
Come on in.

244
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,959
How can I help?

245
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:44,079
Erm... Yeah, I was hoping
you might be able to tell me

246
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,119
what I needed to do
to be considered for,

247
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,879
erm, a-a promotion?

248
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,239
Well, you need to, er...

249
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,679
need to be talking to DI Rabbit
about that in the first place.

250
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:54,879
I already have done, Ma'am.

251
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,879
Erm... I don't think
he took me seriously.

252
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,520
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
That's not good.

253
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,119
You know, erm,
passing your inspectors' exam

254
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,319
is just the start of it.

255
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,839
You know that, don't you?
I'm aware.

256
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,919
There are a very small amount
of vacancies

257
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,719
and a large number
of potential candidates.

258
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:13,919
It's very competitive.

259
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,479
I guess what I'm asking is
if you'll support my candidacy,

260
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,440
er, should an appropriate vacancy
arise?

261
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,360
I'd be delighted to...

262
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,280
..in due course.

263
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,399
There are a number of...
people ahead of you in the queue.

264
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,480
Lisa, you mean?

265
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,640
I'm not at liberty
to discuss that with you.

266
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,080
OK. Thank you, Ma'am.

267
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,319
Winters? You're a good cop.

268
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,279
You're a very good cop.

269
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,519
You just need a bit more experience,
that's all,

270
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,039
just a few standout cases

271
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,280
to get you noticed
further up the food chain.

272
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,039
Thank you, Ma'am.

273
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,040
Go catch those worms.
Yeah.

274
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,760
Day two, ladies and gentlemen, of
Regina versus Sean Arthur Hallett.

275
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,600
And the victim's wife Hester
will take the stand.

276
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,959
Mrs Soames was not present
in the house

277
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,999
on the night
her husband was murdered.

278
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,239
Her inclusion as a witness
for the prosecution

279
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,479
is intended to establish a motive
for murder in the minds of the jury.

280
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,359
She will tell the court

281
00:17:26,360 --> 00:17:29,239
that her diamond engagement ring
went missing

282
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,199
on a day, no less, when Mr Hallett
was in the main house,

283
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,399
polishing the parquet floors.

284
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,239
She will also testify
that she discussed with Mr Soames,

285
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,919
on the very day he was murdered,

286
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,159
his intention
to confront his handyman

287
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,359
about the ring's disappearance.

288
00:17:46,360 --> 00:17:50,479
However,
in my not-so-humble opinion,

289
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,399
Mrs Soames' testimony will raise
as many questions as it answers.

290
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,799
DEFENCE COUNSEL: Would you call
Sean Hallett reliable, Mrs Soames?

291
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,319
It depends on what you mean
by "reliable".

292
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,239
Did he have regular days off sick,
for example?

293
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,119
JUDGE: Where's this going,
Miss Finch?

294
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:08,799
Your Honour,
I am seeking to establish

295
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,319
that my client was a model employee.

296
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,799
So much so
that in nine years of service,

297
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:18,320
the only time off he took was
a single day of compassionate leave.

298
00:18:19,360 --> 00:18:20,520
Very well.

299
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,960
Do you recall why compassionate
leave was granted, Mrs Soames?

300
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,000
His wife, Anya...

301
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:33,359
..she was hospitalised.

302
00:18:33,360 --> 00:18:34,920
And can you say why?

303
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,199
Your Honour,
I have Mrs Hallett's permission

304
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,479
to tell the court
that 18 months ago,

305
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,600
she suffered a stillbirth.

306
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,600
MAN COUGHS

307
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,759
How would you characterise
the defendant's relationship

308
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,279
with your husband, Mrs Soames?

309
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,000
I'm not sure I could.

310
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,560
Well, was it better than your own
relationship with him, for example?

311
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,800
Your Honour, I would like
to show the court Exhibit 6C.

312
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,239
For the record, the witness has been
given a copy of a police report

313
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,799
that details
a complaint of common assault

314
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:28,279
filed by a Mrs H Soames against
a Mr V Soames in March last year.

315
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,279
You phoned the police
to complain about your husband

316
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,479
on three other occasions,
didn't you, Mrs Soames?

317
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,599
We were happily married
for 14 years.

318
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,839
Did your son Anthony know that
his stepfather was a violent bully?

319
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:41,880
Miss Finch.

320
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,519
Where were you on the night

321
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,039
that your husband was murdered,
Mrs Soames?

322
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,079
In Corby with my mother.
Her home help had the night off.

323
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,959
Your mother has Alzheimer's,
I believe.

324
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,199
That's correct.

325
00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:01,319
Which conveniently renders her
unable to support your alibi.

326
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,840
CROWD MURMURS

327
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,919
MAN: If Vincent
was beating his wife,

328
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,079
then maybe she has a motive
for murder?

329
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,879
And the son, too.

330
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,679
At this stage,
and from this distance,

331
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,039
we have no way of knowing

332
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,479
whether Mrs Soames
and Mr Hazeldean are lying

333
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:19,919
or whether, like all of you,

334
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:24,039
they have simply reached an opinion
about Mr Hallett's guilt,

335
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,399
or otherwise, and have interpreted
the facts of the case

336
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,719
with a degree
of unconscious partiality

337
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,999
to support
their instinctive prejudice.

338
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,879
What I can tell you
with absolute certainty

339
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,199
is that opinions
are the enemy of justice

340
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,360
and the curse of the modern world.

341
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,359
Professor?

342
00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:52,199
Ah, my spy in the camp.

343
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,480
If Rabbit knew I was talking to you,
he'd have a conniption fit.

344
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,919
Can I help you with something,
Detective Sergeant?

345
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,839
I don't know, can you?

346
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,159
You could have easily sent this list
of stolen goods to me by email.

347
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,839
I surmise therefore that you have
something to say to me in person.

348
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,360
You wish to apologise...

349
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,759
..for not supporting
more wholeheartedly

350
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,919
my efforts to persuade DI Rabbit
that Sean Hallett

351
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,719
is not the personality type
to murder over a material object.

352
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,239
I was going to tell you
I've been offered a promotion.

353
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,879
Hm. And yet, from your demeanour,

354
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,440
it does not appear to be
a source of unalloyed celebration.

355
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,439
Don't get me wrong, I want the job.
I just feel bad for Dan.

356
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,999
Hm. I have this idea
of how to make it up to him.

357
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,040
I just...
I don't know how he's gonna react.

358
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,439
I require a taxi cab, Miss Snares,

359
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,639
with immediate effect,
to Swaffham Priory.

360
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,239
Unless you care to give me a lift,
DS Donckers?

361
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,119
My treachery has its limits.

362
00:21:55,120 --> 00:21:56,999
But mine certainly doesn't.

363
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,119
I've been known to borrow the
Dean's car when he's not looking.

364
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:03,239
Erm... If he leaves the keys
in the glove compartment,

365
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:04,279
what does he expect?

366
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,119
That really won't be necessary,
Miss Snares.

367
00:22:06,120 --> 00:22:07,199
You're doing me a favour.

368
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,159
Ten more minutes
in this fusty backwater

369
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,999
and I'll die of boredom.

370
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,240
Or commit murder.

371
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:17,639
Come on!
HE SIGHS

372
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,599
So, what exactly is so urgent?

373
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:21,640
You will see.

374
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,839
And where exactly are we going?

375
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,160
You will see.

376
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,679
ENGINE REVS

377
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,479
Are you sure
you know what you're doing?

378
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,200
ENGINE REVS
You'll see.

379
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,080
TYRES SQUEAL

380
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,999
It might be better if you wait here,
Miss Snares.

381
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:06,159
Don't be ridiculous.

382
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,320
The detectives on TV shows,
they always work in pairs.

383
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,440
DOORBELL RINGS
I'll be bad cop.

384
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,719
Good afternoon, Mrs Hallett.
My name is Professor Jasper Tempest.

385
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,319
I am a consultant
with Cambridge Police.

386
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,479
I wish to speak to you
about your husband

387
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,359
and his potential conviction
for a murder he did not commit.

388
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:30,000
I've given a statement
to the police.

389
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:33,200
May we come in?

390
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,759
The police have been so fixated
with the one item of real worth

391
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,159
that has not been recovered,
Mrs Hallett,

392
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,479
that they have failed to interrogate

393
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,919
the 50 or so essentially
worthless items that have.

394
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,159
And I quote, a pair of soup spoons,

395
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:54,999
a blown glass figurine,

396
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,520
a corkscrew
with the head of a mallard duck.

397
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,799
This is not the work
of a professional thief.

398
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,680
More likely the trivial pickings
of a kleptomaniac.

399
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,919
Kleptomania is associated
with depression, Mrs Hallett.

400
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,959
The sort of depression
that might be triggered

401
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,119
by the hormonal changes
that take place during pregnancy

402
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:18,479
and which would only be exacerbated

403
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,400
by the tragic loss
of a longed-for child.

404
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,839
I can only speculate that your
husband failed to tell the police

405
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,599
how these items
came to be in his possession

406
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,320
in a misguided attempt
to conceal something worse.

407
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,240
Much worse.

410
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,160
I want you to leave now.

411
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,400
Yes, of course.

412
00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:18,479
Well, that wasn't
especially illuminating.

413
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,319
On the contrary. The case is solved.

414
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,959
I hate that.
You hate what, Miss Snares?

415
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,319
That bit in every detective show
where the sleuth

416
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,999
says they got everything they need
to solve the crime

417
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,040
and you, the viewer,
are still utterly clueless.

418
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,880
Smug, I call it.

419
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,680
And I call it purely a matter
of gathering the necessary proof.

420
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,679
DS Donckers?

421
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,639
Most productive, thank you.

422
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,799
I wonder if I might inveigle you
to provide me

423
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,719
with a copy of the full case file

424
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,599
and the recordings of Sean Hallett's
interviews with DI Rabbit?

00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:12,440

number for his legal representative.

00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,039

Lisa, are you in here?

00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,519
What's... What's going on?

460
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,840
Macaroons first
and then the jelly beans.

461
00:28:20,360 --> 00:28:23,200
I'm not hungry.
Oh, come on.

462
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,000
No, Lisa. I told you.
I'm... I'm not hungry.

463
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,679
When were you gonna tell me?

464
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,800
Tell you what?

465
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,320
About this.

466
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,760
Ah...

467
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,239
I wanted to, Dan. I was going to.

468
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,080
DCI Brand, she told me not to.

469
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,800
I feel like such a mug.

470
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,359
God, all that bollocks
about giving us the best chance

471
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,599
and putting in for a transfer,
you meant me, didn't you? Not you?

472
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,319
You said it yourself. You were
looking for a different job.

473
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,640
No, I said a second job.
Not a different one.

474
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,439
My old man's lost a bundle
on some property investment,

475
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:23,599
and he's lost his savings,

476
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,199
so I've been working my days off
to support him. Working days off?

477
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,319
Yeah. Like driving,
baby-sitting business people,

478
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:29,599
you know, that sort of thing.

479
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,719
Private security work.

480
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,479
Dan, we are not allowed
to do private security work.

481
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:35,799
Says who?
Says the regulations.

482
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,079
You know them so better than me?

483
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:38,559
It's basic. Everybody knows that.

484
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,599
Oh, Lisa, stop lecturing me.
You should know that!

485
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,319
You do this all the time.
Oh, that is so unfair.

486
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,519
Oh, I got it. I'm too stupid
for a promotion, aren't I?

487
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,960
And I'm too stupid for you.
Dan, I never said that.

488
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:50,800

492
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,839
Your Honour,
I asked the court's permission

493
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,360
to make a last-minute addition
to the witness list.

494
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,839
Why should I allow this,
Miss Finch?

495
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,799
I believe this witness can offer
important insight for the jury

496
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,479
into my client's state of mind,
Your Honour...

497
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,840
now that he's decided not to take
the stand in his own defence.

499

Professor, if I could ask you

500
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,839
to tell the court
a little about yourself.

501
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,919
I hold a chair
at the Institute of Criminology

502
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,239
and also act as a consultant
for Cambridge Police.

503
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,959
Although you have had no involvement
in investigating this case,

504
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,159
is that correct?

505
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,439
That is correct.

506
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,599
I have, however,
more than 25 years' experience

507
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:43,599
of applying Eysenck's PEN model
to diagnose criminal personality

508
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,239
using three
broad behavioural traits:

509
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,319
psychosis, extroversion, neurosis.

510
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,720
Hence the acronym... PEN.

511
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,359
Having studied the case file,

512
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,319
and having played back
a number of interviews

513
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,319
the defendant was subjected to
following his arrest,

514
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,319
I am convinced Mr Hallett
is a stable introvert.

515
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,759
In layman's terms,
not the sort to anger

516
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,679
or resort to violence,
however badly provoked.

517
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,880

00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,120
Professor?

519
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,479
My point is that Mr Hallett
would never kill his employer.

520
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:22,840
Unlike his wife.

521
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,439
Your Honour, I demand to speak.

522
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,439
Sit down, Mr Hallett. You have
waived the right to give evidence.

523
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,159
I'm changing my plea... to guilty.

524
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,439
I killed Vincent Soames.
Mr Hallett, be quiet.

525
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,919
I regret to say
that Mr Hallett is lying.

526
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,400
What is more, I can prove it.

527
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:50,839
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,

528
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,879
I know this may seem
a little out of the ordinary,

529
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:58,520
but I am persuaded that this will
help our understanding of the case.

530
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:06,119
Mr Hallett, I want you to re-enact
the events of the night in question

531
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,079
as faithfully as you can remember.

532
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,959
Your Honour, it was dark when
I arrived and got out of the car.

533
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,400
Please. A faithful re-enactment.

535
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,360
Leave the seat.

536
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,200
Mrs Hallett.

537
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,159
I could throw the book at you,
you know?

538
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,679
You're not supposed to speak
to witnesses without our say-so.

539
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,439
He prevented
a miscarriage of justice.

540
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,999
Whose side are you on?

541
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,999
We are on the same side.

542
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,600
Then why doesn't it feel like it?

543
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,279
You are enthralled with
the process of evidence gathering,

544
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,399
Detective Inspector, but evidence
without criminological insight

545
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:33,440
is as much use as criminological
insight without evidence.

546
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:35,880
We need each other...

547
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:39,480
..Paul.

548
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:51,320
It was Mrs Hallett, not her husband,
who drove the car to the main house.

549
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:59,159
It was Mrs Hallett who, in
the grip of postpartum depression,

550
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,719
shot Vincent Soames
using her husband's rifle.

551
00:35:01,720 --> 00:35:03,479
HE SHOUTS DESPERATELY

552
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,239
And it was Mrs Hallett
who phoned her husband

553
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:09,720
to tell him what she had done
and why.

554
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,160
He was trying to cover her tracks
when the police arrived.

555
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,520
STUDENTS APPLAUD

556
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:31,160
'Mr Soames...'

557
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,760
He caught me...
stealing salt and pepper pots.

558
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,960
He said we'd lose our jobs,
the cottage...

559
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,400
..everything.

560
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,520
After everything we'd done for them.

561
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,720
The late nights, the weekends...

562
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,360
..being at their beck and call 24/7.

563
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,200
They gave me one day.

564
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,560
One day to bury my child.

565
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,479
Are you out of your mind?
Put that gun down! No! No!

566
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,319
BANG,
THUD

567
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,920
I wanted to confess straight away.

568
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,600
Anya... Anya.

569
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:35,959
It's not your fault.
It is NOT your fault.

570
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,879
SHE WAILS
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.

571
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,040
'But Sean persuaded me not to.'

572
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,119
Run, run. Run!

573
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,000
'He was convinced there wouldn't be
enough evidence to convict him.

574
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,120
'I'm glad the truth has come out.'

575
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,960
I never should have let him
face trial for my moment of madness.

576
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,120
SHE SOBS

577
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,320
SHE SIGHS

578
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,040

I'm so sorry I'm late.
Please forgive me.

Take your time, Mrs Tempest. Please.

Erm...

584
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,200
Time to start digging, then?

585
00:38:19,240 --> 00:38:20,960

00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,719
There he is.
Oh, hello, mate.

588
00:38:33,720 --> 00:38:35,479
Good to see you.
You're looking very well.

589
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,359
Thank you. You, too, sir. You, too.
Can I get you a drink? Yeah.

590
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,799
It's all right, I'll get these.

591
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,519
Simon? You all right?
You well?

592
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,119
Yeah, Dan. How are you?
Yeah, good.

593
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:46,679
I didn't know
you two knew each other.

594
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,399
Me and Simon go way back,
don't we, mate?

595
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:49,840
Oh, yeah, we go way back.

596
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,239
Go on, what are you getting us?
I think Champagne, don't you?

597
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:57,599
What else? What else?
THEY LAUGH

598
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,840
Well, thanks for having me out,
lads.

00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,560
Well, shall I make a start?

601
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:12,159
What you've shared with me
over our sessions to date, Jasper,

602
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,639
is that your father
was a violent alcoholic.

603
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,160
DRUNKEN SHOUTING

604
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,839
SHOUTING CONTINUES

605
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,800
And you've disclosed
that he took his own life...

606
00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:34,240
..rather than face up
to his responsibilities as a father.

607
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,200
And, indeed, as a husband.

608
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,359
And you've also revealed,
and possibly for the first time,

609
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,800
that you suffered a trauma
in the wake of his suicide...

610
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:55,280
..which cast a dark shadow over
your subsequent lived experience...

611
00:40:56,720 --> 00:40:59,759
..and which you now believe
is of vital importance

612
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,960
to share... with your mother.

613
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:13,040
That day...

614
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,439
..Miss Lowden was unwell,

615
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,720
I came home
from my piano lesson early.

616
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,560
EXHALES SHAKILY

617
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:33,400
I-I-I saw him, Mother...
hanging there.

618
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:49,840
I hid in the coal cellar...
reappeared at the appropriate time.

619
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,999
Pretended...
that I had seen nothing.

620
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,639
Oh... Oh, my poor boy.

621
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,040
You never said a word?

622
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,360
You didn't tell a soul about it?

623
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:21,560
It's surely no surprise that you
feel angry and resentful, Jasper.

624
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,279
But you persist in directing it

625
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:30,559
not against the father
who abused and abandoned you,

626
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,160
but against
your poor, traumatised self.

627
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,720
And against the mother
who did her best to protect you.

628
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,720
And who brought you up
single-handedly.

629
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,280
To win a Double First at Cambridge.

630
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,319
So, perhaps it's time
to ask yourself the question,

631
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:04,879
why is that, Jasper?

632
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:08,400
Yes. Why is that, Jasper?

633
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,680
Because you betrayed him, Mother.
You betrayed us.

634
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:19,440
Wha...

635
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,079
"Betrayal" is such a terrible word.

636
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,160
But one I use advisedly.

637
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,720
Would you like to expand on that
a little, Jasper?

638
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:40,240
I saw you, Mother.

639
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,440
'With another man.'

640
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,919
And I have long believed
it accounts for his misery

641
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:02,640
and his search for salvation
in the bottom of a bottle.

And I would feel no blame
if I had been.

646
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:35,520
After he died, I sought comfort
from a kind and gentle man.

647
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,480
The sort of comfort
no son could give a mother.
