Cal's family owned half of Blackout.
We were going to use it, go away.
Will you marry me? I ruin your career and your response is to ask me to marry you, why did you ask? Cos I fucked Eli yesterday and it's been freaking me out ever since.

I wanted to be in today.
Fine.
Well, I can give you an arson, I've got a domestic abuse, I got a horse poisoning.
No, do this.
It's an RTA on the Old Bristol Road.
Need some witness statements followed up on.
But I'm on the MIT.
That's their problem now.
Your supervising officer was killed.
You're off the case.
They can't keep you on.
I'll give you the choice, you can take whichever file you want.
You're not on the MIT any more, you're one of mine.
I thought it was you.
- I'm sorry.
- You've got your hair different.
But you've always changed it quite a lot.
- I don't know you are - I'm Mary, Ian's sister.
- Oh.
Hi.
I'm so sorry.
- For the newspapers.
I was told to pick one I liked.
One he looked handsome in.
But I'm his sister, what do I know about that? Can you help? You always looked so happy together.
We were so glad he'd found a girlfriend like you.
- Coming home or going out? - Coming home.
You get always get the nasty shifts don't you? That's because people take advantage of my better nature.
- I'm okay.
- Are you sure? There's no weight off, and I've got a multipack in my bag.
About Tina, I would say that you could do better, but I think she's the best thing in the world, so You're right.
Hey have you ever wondered, why haven't we hooked up? No.
Cos you're on my list, now I'm a free man.
You're in my top five.
Thank you so much.
- Wow.
Top five? - Yeah, top five in no particular order.
- James' sister Bee.
- I really don't want to listen to the list.
- Joyce, obviously.
- Tina's mum? Hoo, that woman does things to me.
I really can't listen to any of this.
It's more a top three actually.
Cos honestly, you and them, that's all I'd want.
Please stop.
Please stop.
Please stop.
Please stop.
Please stop You like my ambition? No? You sure babe, not even lunch? Hi.
Marah says you're staying for a few days.
I need someone to look after Cassie while I'm working.
And you want to be here? And I think I want to be here, yeah.
It's good.
You're welcome.
I don't think I can find Cal's killer, Eli.
I thought I knew where to look, but everywhere I looked was wrong.
And now Ian's dead And nothing makes sense.
I'm off the case.
Back doing the shitty jobs.
You weren't here when my mum died, were you? We went together, 20 of us.
To scatter her up on the Moon Horse.
We burnt fires all night.
See everyone told me then, that there were things to be found, I tried looking but I couldn't see fuck all.
Until one day We don't yet see things clearly.
We're squinting in a fog, peering through the mist.
Is that a Romany saying? No Bible.
Corinthians.
I always liked the Bible.
You seem stronger.
The mist has cleared a bit.
For me.
It's starting to clear.
It's shifted.
Safe to approach? Safe to approach.
Not one of em's a patch on you.
Safe to approach.
Not safe to say unnecessary shit.
I tried Tina.
I tried to find you another ride.
Phoned around everyone I knew.
No one's biting.
- But give it time and - And what? I'll still be the girl who threw the race she should have won, right? You're going to be okay, you know.
I know that probably means fuck all coming from me, but you are.
I'm asking you, Tina, don't make me the one that ruined your life.
You're better than that.
I was worried.
- I'd got the black eye and you hadn't.
- No, I got one and all.
They've put me on a charge for that, taken away my TV.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I wasn't sure what to bring you.
So I brought you some chocolate, and some fags, and I brought you a porno.
That'll do fine.
Is that why you're here, is it? Do you remember Do you remember this? From the time we drove down to Kent that summer.
Three years before we lost her.
It was a happy time, weren't it? Yeah.
Yeah, your mum was on the slide, even then.
And Cal got into some shit with the locals.
No, I remember it being happy.
You didn't hit her or me the whole holiday.
Policeman come to see me yesterday.
A contract's been found, Granddad signed it.
Part ownership of a racehorse, Blackout.
- They found that contract? - Oh, you knew about it, did ya? - Yeah.
- I didn't.
It'd been signed over, by granddad to Cal and me, with him gone I get half the horse.
With Jackie Warwick owning the other half.
- How much is it worth? - It's worth don't matter.
It's not my horse.
It's Tina Fallon's.
She loves it.
I've signed it over to her.
You've done what? And that's why I come here today.
To tell you that anything you thought was coming to you, ain't.
You're in just as much shit when you get out of here as you were when you came in.
I'm not going to be visiting again.
You didn't visit before.
Listen, with mum gone, with Cal gone, you can consider your whole fucking family gone.
That horse should have been mine too, you know.
Turns out it shouldn't have.
Turns out you got nothing, Dad.
You weren't built for our life.
I see no shame in that.
I'm saying, people who think your silence is strength, they don't know you, you're one of the weakest people I know.
Stay safe, Dad.
- And this is going to be? - I'm calling it a jarf.
- A jarf? - Yeah.
Halfway between a jumper and a scarf.
It's quite experimental.
Or it could be called a scumper.
But I prefer jarf.
It's called a jarf.
- Have you eaten today? - I have not.
- Do you intend to? - Not today.
- I don't know what to do.
- About what? Everything.
Have you seen him? Which him are we talking about? Rob or Eli? I've seen Rob, I haven't seen Eli.
How's Rob? Very noisy.
He's looking firmly to the future, I'd say.
- He told me, I love Eli.
- You do love Eli.
I've fucked it with him, haven't I? People are surprisingly resilient in matters of the heart.
That's a bit Why don't they use the doorbell? Knocking is more dramatic? We need to talk.
Okay.
We open at 3:00.
Not before.
Better come in, then.
I don't understand.
This is an arson, right? Right.
Well, it just doesn't seem like anything's been burnt.
- Can't you smell it? - Smell what? Petrol.
- So it's an attempted arson? - You'll see.
CCTV last night.
There.
You see? Ran off before I had a chance to get him.
Got a name, Chris Pollard's his name.
He's tried it twice before, but you people, you keep letting him off.
I know it's because Ian says you want people to better themselves, but we both know it's cowardice pure and simple.
Lan Salter investigated it? Investigated here.
Won a few trophies here.
Nice lad.
But a bit soft, you know? Do you want his address? The kid's? - You know where he lives? - Yeah, lives in one of those care homes.
I told Ian, you lot did nothing.
Sorry about the cup, it's got a chip in it.
Annie adopted a stray cat, it didn't like china very much.
- Are you okay, Jackie? - Oh, it's been a long couple of days.
James is going to need money if there's a case.
That means we need to talk about what you're going to do with your share.
- My share of what? - Blackout.
What share of Blackout? You don't know? I didn't even know it existed.
James did, apparently.
I thought I owned her.
But it's been verified and I've been told I just have to deal with it, so that's what I'm doing, I'm here trying to deal with it.
- So, deal with what? - The contract.
The contract my wonderful husband signed with the Bray family.
Half ownership of Blackout.
In exchange for some gambling debts.
- The Brays own Blackout? - Half of her.
Eli is supposed to benefit.
Only he's given it, his half, to you.
So, we need to work out what you're going to do with it.
- All right? - Hey, hi.
Who's in charge here? That's a fucking good question.
I need to speak to Chris Pollard.
- Okay.
And what shall I tell him? - You can just tell me where he is.
Number three.
He's in room number three.
Oi.
Stop! Chris! Stop! Wait! You can't just do that, burn things down.
Do you know what that place is? Get me Sergeant Salter.
He'll deal with this.
I can't get you Ian.
Just talk to me.
Leave me alone.
I don't do cops.
Come back, tell me about Ian! - Any luck? - He's not in his van, he's not at the stables.
I don't know where else to look, Annie.
- Don't worry, you'll find him.
- Yeah, okay.
I'm not sure whether I should say something.
Hi.
I'm not sure whether I should say something now, you know, like normal people just say "Hi", as you've just proved, do I say "Hi" just cos we're normal? - We're normal friends.
- Yeah, we are.
Are you all right, Tina? Are you acting weird because I'm here, or cos of something else? My life's changed.
My life's always changing.
Sometimes I wish I could just take a holiday away from it, you know.
Step outside for a bit, come back when I'm a bigger boy.
What's changed this time? Have you seen Eli? That's bold.
It's like that yeah, all right? You're just going to stab me with a pikestaff.
I'm the previous one, have you seen the next one? Have you seen him, Rob? Cos I really do need to talk to him.
Okay.
This is going to sound really weird, but I can see him now.
Are you not going to shout, stop him or whatever? Are you even going to Eli! Eli! Okay, this is way more awkward than I thought.
I'm just going to I'm going to go now.
You gave me Blackout? - You gave me Blackout? - Just my half.
- You gave me your half of Blackout? - Horse is yours.
But you hated me, I left you at that stables, I actually walked away from you.
Yeah, you did.
But, I didn't even know you owned You hate me, why would you give me Blackout? You're not listening to me, Tina.
The horse is yours.
Always has been.
Now how I feel about you, how you feel about me, it don't matter.
But I Struggle to stop you riding her now, won't they? Which is good.
Eli I said what I wanted to say.
- Just look after the horse.
- Eli.
Don't.
Not just because I gave you the horse, please.
Do you really think Don't be so fucking stupid.
Your romance is always a bit of an attack.
Are you going somewhere? - What are you doing now? - Where you going? I got somewhere I want to show you Fuck him.
- Fuck.
- Wait.
- Come on in.
- Yeah.
Sorry, no tinkers.
Shut up.
I'm not a fucking tinker.
- No, but you're a gypsy.
- You're a gorja girl.
Walls are good.
No damp.
Electrics, very wiry.
Is that your mum? I can't believe you didn't tell me.
The council gave you a house.
This is, erm, good beam.
- Mmm.
- Really firm.
- It's a really good beam.
- A really good beam.
Careful.
- You're living on the edge.
- I'm testing.
You need to test.
Stairs good.
Don't even Look, not even a creak.
You're going to break them.
I'm doing you a favour.
You don't want to live just anywhere.
But I'm not going to live here though, am I? - All this, it weren't for me.
It was for Cal.
- Cal? The council didn't think the site fit for him.
They were talking about sending him back to the home.
He was almost old enough to look after himself.
They didn't think so.
I wasn't going to let them do it to me again.
So you're going to live here on your own? With your pictures of your mum? This was my future.
This is where me and Cal belong.
It's all I've got.
I needed you to see it.
I needed to see it before Before you what? Dark and mysterious is only going to get you so far.
Yeah? Where's the bedroom? It's upstairs.
Okay.
So, we're releasing you on conditional police bail.
I'm going to talk it James, look at me.
I'm going to talk you through what happens now.
You are being released on conditional police bail pending further inquiries, you must surrender your passport and reside only at your home address.
Do you understand that? James, look at me, son, you need to look at me, I can't let you go until I'm sure you understand this Understand? Wasn't sure which mode of transport to bring, thought about nicking my dad's car, but driving without a licence into a police station is a step too far, even for me.
So I settled for skateboards.
Old school, I know.
But it made me happy.
Do you remember when we used to go to the ramp at Newbury? Where those older kids would look at us like we were dicks as we tried to do flips? I think I can still do a kick flip, actually.
Ah! No, apparently not.
James - Sorry.
- No, no, why? No, honestly I'd be crying.
Crying's okay.
Today, I feel like crying a bit too, actually.
This is Officer Rosen.
Just following up on the arson.
Could you get me a list of all arrests made at Kintbury snooker club.
Received, Officer Rosen.
And of all arrests made of minors by Ian Salter in the last five years.
Could you repeat that? It's a cross-referencing thing.
Understood.
I'll get right on it, over.
Officer Rosen.
Come in.
Go ahead.
That information you were after There have been a number of arrests at the snooker club.
No convictions.
And Sergeant Salter's sheet for minors is pretty lengthy, actually.
Any name you want to particularly identify? Chris Pollard.
Three arrests.
No charges.
Caleb Bray.
Yeah.
Four arrests.
No charges.
And who countersigned? All signed off by Inspector George Tomkins.
- What's that? - What? That.
That's from where Black dumped me in a hedge, - I got a piece of wood this big through it.
- Yeah? - A baby scratch.
- Baby scratch! All right then.
- This.
- That? - Yeah.
- That's your arse.
Barbed wire, from that horrible half-breed.
Dominic tried to persuade me I could ride him a bit and he threw me off my saddle and dragged me along a barbed wire fence.
Don't laugh.
It's a nice arse, but the scar's nothing to brag about.
- You see that? - Yeah.
- You see it? - Yeah.
When I went to hospital they said I should be dead.
How nice is that? I don't remember.
It's before your time.
Let me guess, Tiny Pete or Kelsey Grange? No, it was my dad.
When I was seven he hit me with a brick.
You know sometimes you can't stop it.
What's been.
What's coming.
- I've got to get out of here.
- Why? Because this place is killing me.
- Let's get out let's go together.
- Go where? I don't know.
Wherever there's horses we'll get work.
Let's go tonight.
We're young, there's nothing keeping us here.
You've got Blackout? And I love that horse, but I love you more.
I can lose anything, Eli, but I can't lose you.
Look at me.
Look at me.
Look in my eyes.
You can see it in my eyes.
Trust that.
What does it mean? It means God is good, and the Devil's not so bad to those he likes.
And there was me thinking you were telling me you loved me in your crazy, exotic way.
I was.
I'm ready to go with you.
What the fuck do you think you're doing? What? You're on probation, you don't get to check other people's arrest records and you certainly don't get to come here.
I'm just looking, sir.
I don't see any harm in just looking, I put you on the wrong case, didn't I? How stupid of me.
Stupid of you, why? - What happened at that pool hall? - Absolutely nothing, as far as I'm aware.
What did those kids have on Ian? You know, I don't dislike you Ruth, but you have a lot to learn.
The main thing being that you're young and you don't know it.
This is a sophisticated matter so let's just leave it.
What did you let happen, sir? Was Ian with kids? Was he harming children, sir? He'd put a stop to it.
What? And you? - Were you part of it as well? - No! No.
It's no use slinging mud at a dead man.
And if you do try and sling mud at me, I've got a perfect record and you're just a probationer with a history of being a pain in the arse.
When did you know? Do you know how hard it is to run these country nicks, keep 'em going? Do you? Cos I run a good nick and then if this comes out, all I'll become, and all we'll become, is just that place where the The copper fucked those boys, well, I'm not having that.
You knew? All this stuff.
You knew and you let it happen? What, you just want everyone to think you run the perfect station.
I watched him so carefully.
I watched him so carefully, Ruth.
You couldn't say anything? Cal died and you were too deep in your lies to do anything about Ian.
- He didn't do that.
- Of course, he did.
And I didn't do anything to help him.
- Cal's death, Elizabeth - You can't prove anything.
It's your word against mine I'm having your badge for that.
Keep your fucking badge.
You won't prove anything, Ruth.
Then what are you so scared of? Ruth Bit of a brew.
Bit of a brew for two.
Oh, that's new, bit of a brew for two.
- I'm a fucking poet.
- You are the freestyle king.
I am the freestyle king.
I'd miss this if I went away.
Which bit? All of it.
The house, the farm - Argentina, mate.
- I know.
- It's a long way away.
- It was his idea.
Yeah, you went along with it? I'd have gone anywhere for him.
Mmm.
Me and Tina are done, by the way.
Toast.
It was bound to happen sometime really, you know.
She loves Eli, and I fundamentally love myself.
That's a succinct way to put it.
So we're both single, now.
We are.
I mean I'm not so sure I'd be into the bumming thing, but you know a hand job every now and again might keep my spirits up.
Just to be clear, just because I'm gay, I don't find you attractive in any single way.
In any single way? There isn't anything about you that turns me on.
What? What about my fine body? My beautiful hair? My ears? You want me to have fantasized about you? Do you know how many woman in my life I've fantasized about? Your mum, I've fantasized about her, that was a great wank.
Your sister, the things I've imagined doing to her.
Wait.
You've really not had one little naughty thought about me? To be honest mate, I think you're being a bit racist.
And as a member of a minority Oh, welcome to the minority club by the way.
You know you should know better, really.
This is good.
You know I think this is good.
Time for a new start.
For both of us, really.
A new start under old skies.
That's the cheesiest fucking thing you've ever said.
- And you've said some cheesy things.
- Fuck you.
Fuck you? Mate, you're in for it now, I'm going to tell you all the things I imagined doing to your sister, think vinegar, think chains.
Hey.
A squirrel! A squirrel's quite a sexual animal actually.
A squirrel doing amazing things to your sister's anus Shut your mouth.
- I don't understand.
- What's to understand? You're leaving.
Can you use that? No, it's tiny.
Bin it then.
- You can't just leave.
- I can.
No you can't.
Tina.
You can't just leave me.
Tina Fallon.
She's got two speeds, go as fast as possible, or stop.
I am right about this though, aren't I? Yeah.
You are, as it goes.
Chris? She's safe.
She's safe.
She's safe.
- She's a cop.
- Yeah.
She's one of us.
She's safe.
Eli we need to talk, alone.
- Do we? - Yeah.
Leave it to us, would you? - Why didn't you tell me? - Why didn't I tell you what? Why didn't you tell me he was dead? Now, just go.
So, you're leaving? Yeah.
- Going where? - Ireland.
To start with.
Tina's idea.
Catching a train tonight.
And we're getting the ferry from somewhere in Wales.
- You're going with Tina? - Yeah.
Why? Why are you going now? Because I don't want to be here no more.
- And Tina, why's she going? - Cos she loves me.
The mist has cleared.
Something like that.
You got there before me.
Got where? Lan.
Lan killed Cal.
He abused him and then he thought he was going to get found out so he killed him.
And I don't know how Elizabeth found out.
Maybe she just always knew.
And maybe she recognised him when she came into custody.
He confronted her and killed her by accident.
And then you You killed Ian.
Didn't you? There's your mist.
And before you say anything else, consider this one very carefully and don't lie to me.
This is yours.
- How did you get this? - I knew it was bad in there, I didn't know how bad not until I started reading that.
I tried figuring out for myself.
He hung around that home.
Ian polluted them all.
My brother Look at those photos.
You see the way that his eyes change.
And then he went to that place, that pool and he sold himself.
And people say it's difficult taking a life, it's not, it's easy.
Just like that, I'd do it again.
I'd kill that animal every day of the fucking week.
Because how could you not want to set that right? I don't know, Eli.
I used to think I could see people, to see who they were, but Ian and now you Can I ask you one favour? Will you let me tell Tina? Before you take me in.
Everyone else I don't give a shit about, but Tina, I need to tell her.
You love her? Always have.
That's what we were always taught, right? Yeah.
Just go.
Just get out.
Just go find a new life with Tina - But you're the law.
- Yeah, I was.
So was Ian.
And I'm making a choice to be different.
Cal was trying to make a new start and Well, don't you deserve to make a new start as well? You said I need to make a choice and I'm making one.
So just go.
Just go now.
What do you mean Cal tried to make a new start? Part of James trying to convince us he was innocent.
- They had tickets together.
- Cal was going to Argentina with James? - What? You knew he was going to Argentina? - Not with James.
Well they were sweet together, really.
I think they genuinely loved each other.
Cal made them these pendants of the Moon Horse.
The Moon Horse? What does that matter now? You've got 30 minutes, Eli.
So get to the train station.
Well, I wasn't expecting to see you again tonight.
