INDISTINCT CHATTER
You still haven't got anything
to cook with!
I'm fine.
Zeta, you have to eat properly.
You can't just live off
instant noodles.
These look good.
Yeah, those will be really
practical for uni!
ZETA LAUGHS
Very practical!
Sorry!What?
Becks?
Sorry!
Oh! Sorry!
BABY CRIES
Sorry
CAR BEEPS
Sorry!
Mum?Hold these.
Gotta go.
Sorry!What the hell?
CHURCH BELLS CHIME
No, no, no, no
Good morning, Mrs Eddingham.
You're on time.
And you are late, Mrs Starling.
I'm so sorry.
You have the key?
Of course.
It's almost as if I should
get you your own copy.
The crypt is your responsibility.
Well, here we are, then.
Thank you.
I'll be an hour.
Maybe longer.
It's terribly dusty down here.
SUPRESSED SCREAM
What on earth is going on?
Are you OK?
I'm great.
This
This is me being great.
WHISPERS:Mrs Eddingham!
Why does Mrs Eddingham need access
to the crypt?
Well, that's obvious.
She's measuring herself up
for a new coffin to sleep in.
She's researching her family
history, trying to work out
what century she was born!
PHONE VIBRATES
Oh. Excuse me.
Hello, Judith Potts.
Ah, Mrs Potts.
It's Peter Bailey here.
I hope you don't mind me calling.
I got your number from
Mrs Eddingham.
I want to invite you to a party.
I'm sorry?
This afternoon, to celebrate
my marriage tomorrow.
What do you say?
What I would say, Sir Peter,
is that we've never met.
Oh, your reputation precedes you.
And I'm worriedsomething
might happen.
Something bad?
Look, I can't say,
not over the phone.
Come to the party.
I'll tell you all about it then.
It's from 2.30. Will you be there?
Oh, of course. On one condition.
That I can bring two friends
with me.
Well, absolutely,
as many as you like.
ORCHESTRAL MUSIC
INDISTINCT CHATTER
Well, this is something, isn't it?
Oh, you can say that again.
It's quite a lot of something!
LAUGHTER
Oh, hello.
Thank you.
Ladies.Thanks.
So what's the plan?
Let's start with Sir Peter.
Does anyone know what he looks like?
MEN LAUGH LOUDLY
And then his legs fell off!
Ha-ha-ha!
I think we've found him.
What is it with the red trousers?
They are rather vivid.
At least we won't lose him
in the crowd.
Oh, we'll chat later.
Will you excuse me?
Peter, come with me.
Well, he's the groom.
He's in demand.
So how about we try and find
the bride-to-be?Mm.
Peter said it was his grandma's
engagement ring,
and then his mum's.
And now it's yours.
MUSIC: Habanera from Carmen
by Georges Bizet
That's our tune.
And, seriously,
you've become a lady.
Oh, don't!
I know. Jenny Page today,
Lady Bailey tomorrow.
Not that the title matters!
I'm so lucky.
ENGINE APPROACHES
No.
He said he wouldn't.
Jenny!
Why are you here, Tristram?
You promised!
I changed my mind.
How dare you do this to your father?
I want to celebrate
the happy couple.
The plot thickens.
Tristram, I told you
you're not welcome.
What the hell are you doing here?!
This is my home.
No, it bloody well isn't.
You can't bear to see
your dad happy, can you?!
Jenny Oh, now look
what you've done.
Nice to see you too.
CHATTER AND MUSIC RESUMES
Are we really going to pretend
that didn't just happen?
It's the English way.
Erm, Judith Potts.
I think you might need another one.
Thank you. Tristram Bailey.
Oh, Sir Peter's son.
Sadly for both of us, yes.
It can be complicated,
a parent remarried.
Especially when the person your
dad's marrying is his nurse.
My sister and I reckon he's
just doing it to get out of
paying her wages.You have a sister?
Mm. Rosanna. She should be knocking
about here somewhere.
Anyway, erm
..to the happy couple.
CRASHING
What was that?
That didn't sound good.
Dad?
Peter?What was that?
Where's Dad?
It came from downstairs.
Peter?
Dad?
Dad?
INDISTINCT VOICES
Dad?
Sir Peter?
Over here in the study.
Dad?Where are you?
WhatIs there a spare key?
Peter?
Get out the way. Get out the way!
JUDITH:What's going on?
Ah, Rosanna.
I'm sure the sounds
Dad?
Dad, are you in there?
Dad?Move away, Rosanna!
OK!
Dad
Oh
Help me lift this!
Come on, come on!
All together now.
Andlift!
GRUNTING
Oh, no!
Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no
We need to call an ambulance.
Peter!
He's dead.
SHE SOBS
We need to get you out of here.
SuzieYeah.
Come on. She's right.
Come on.
Ambulance Service.
Sir Peter Bailey.
I'm so sorry.
How did it happen?
Ask for the police too.
We need to clear this room.
Come on, people.
SOBBING CONTINUES
We need the police.
This is a crime scene -
don't touch anything, please!
SIRENS BLARE
Jason, round up the witnesses.
Alice, prepare an area
to take statements.
Sarge.
Thank you for coming. There's been
the most terrible accident.
Please, take a few steps back
for me.
My name is DC Jason Kennedy.OK
Suzie, Becks, you stay here,
talk to people, hunt around.
We need to start investigating.
Won't Tanika mind?
Mind? She'll be livid.
But until she tells us
we can't nose around
We can do what we like.
Yeah, I like it.
Where are you going?
Hmm.
Anyone found the key to this door?
In his pocket.
That certainly looks like it.
Oh, Mrs Potts.
What are you doing here?
I don't think this was an accident.
I'm sorry?
I think someone killed Sir Peter.
Hello, Judith.Hello, Tanika.
How's Shanti?
She's great, thanks.
Not sure this is the right moment.
No, no, of course not.
Sir Peter rang me this morning,
invited me to the party.
He was worried that something
bad might happen.
Well, here we are.
Ah, Detective Sergeant,
you might want to look at
the side of the cabinet.
There's an old hook on the wall
for keeping it upright.
Only it's been unhooked.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, Mrs Potts is right.
It doesn't mean it's done
recently, though.
Look, the family are saying
it was an accident.
The door to the room was locked,
which is why it had
to be broken through.
I know - I was with them
at the time.
And they found no-one else
in the room when they got into it,
and no other way in or out.
The windows don't open.
So if this was murder, just how did
the killer push that cabinet
onto Sir Peter and then get through
the locked door afterwards?
I'm still working on that bit.
It all started when
Tristram arrived.
It all started when my dad hired
a gold-digger for a nurse.
I loved your dad. He loved me.
Yeah, I don't doubt
that for a second.
It was in your interest to make sure
he did - your financial interests.
Please!
The pair of you.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Judith?
I'msorry to intrude.
I know how hard this is for you,
but Sir Peter wanted me here.
He suggested that there
were tensions in the family
about the upcoming wedding.
You can say that again.
And you're his daughter?
Rosanna Bailey.
It's Tristram you need to speak to.
Yes, your arrival at the party
made your father very angry.
Is that true?
My brother was stupid enough
to let Father know his opinions
about his stepmother-to-be.
He was banned from attending,
weren't you?
I can do what I like.
TANIKA:What happened?
Jenny went for me, made a huge scene
in front of all the guests,
and then fled for the house.
I was upset.
TANIKA: Where did you go?
I I had to get away.
I I wanted a cigarette.
Not that I smoke, not normally.
Peter has a pack in our bedroom.
That's where I went.
You didn't see him come
into the house after you?
I didn't know he'd even followed me.
And I never went into the house,
so I have no idea
what happened either.
But if we're talking about tensions,
why don't you tell everyone
about yours and Dad's big bust up?
What's this?
It was nothing.
My sister's company needed a loan,
and dad said he wouldn't throw
good money after bad.
Isn't that right?
Where were you when
the crash happened?
I was outside with the other guests.
I don't remember seeing you,
and I'm sure I'd have remembered
such a distinctive jacket.
Oh, you've lost a button
on your cuff.
It's vintage.
Button fell off.
DOOR OPENS
Oh, God.
Jenny, I'm so sorry.
Rosanna, Tristram, this is the most
terrible news.
Excuse me.
Of course.
Apologies. I'm Andrew Husselbee,
the family's lawyer.
I'm here to collect Sir Peter's
most recent will.
What do you mean, most recent?
Peter made a new will
three weeks ago.
What?
What's in the new will?
Well, it was all rather irregular.
He wouldn't tell me.
But you're his lawyer.
And your father just wanted me
to witness it,
along with Adam, your gardener.
He didn't tell either of us
what was in it.
The safe is over here.
Peter said he'd changed
the combination to the date
of our wedding.
Tell me, what was in the old will,
the one he was replacing?
Well, it left his entire
estate to Tristram.
JENNY GASPS
Oh, I'm sorry.
Come on, let's sit you down.
It's in a long white envelope.
I don't see an envelope in here.
You're right. It's not there.
So if the new will can't be found,
then the old will still stands.
How very interesting.
Judith, I think I can take it
from here.
Thank you.
What a good idea.
Have you found something?
Yep, we have.
Someone was hiding in the bushes.
Look, look, look.
Right outside Sir Peter's study.
Oh, this is good!
The soil's damp.
Someone's recently watered this bed.
And the prints have been there
since then.
Oh, and there's a cut,
across the left sole.
These prints were left by
a pair of ladies Hunter wellies.
You can tell from
the pattern on the heel.
Hold on. You know this how?
Its my specialist subject -
posh wellies of Marlow.
SUZIE LAUGHS
Wonderful.
So there was a woman here.
So what are we saying?
Could this be our killer?
Well, it's possible, although
Tanika thinks Sir Peter's death
was an accident.What about you?
What do you think?
I think my house, tomorrow morning.
See you both then.
Luna! Hello, girl!
Hello.
No, these are not for you.
No, no, no.
Zeta! I've got fish and chips!
SHE CHUCKLES
I'll even let you watch
your favourite TV show.
Zeta!
Oh.
Well, I guess it's just
you and me, girl.
POUNDING DANCE MUSIC
Cup of tea coming up.
I'm so sorry about Mrs Eddingham.
Oh, she told you?
At great length.
She wants to raise the matter
of crypt access at the next PCC.
Wow. I bet you can't
wait for that meeting.
HE CHUCKLES
DANCE MUSIC GETS LOUDER
BOTH: Music!
Oh, what? Sorry for living!
When we first met, you used
to hang out with rock stars.
Well, I really just wanted
to hang out with you.
Well, now our life is the kids,
Mrs Eddingham
and the parochial church council.
Oh, with a bit of murder
on the side.
We should go on a date.
What? Us?Yes, us.
Just us. No kids.
How long has that been?
You can't bear to see your dad
happy, can you?!Jenny!
I don't remember seeing you.
Peter made a new will
three weeks ago.
It all started when my dad hired
a gold-digger for a nurse.
Right, Jasper, who has something
to hide?
Sunday. Chequers.
I've been running background
checks on the family.
There was a domestic
three months ago.
We were called to Sir Peter's
house by Adam Warner.
He's their gardener.
OK, everyone, what else
have we got on the Bailey case?
Oh, uh, well, Sarge, the postmortem
is in, and the cause of death
was blunt force trauma to the head.
So no surprises there,
seeing as a bloody great
big cabinet fell onto him.
And the time of death
is about 3pm,
which fits with the witness
statements.
What did our witnesses say?
No-one saw anything.
They were all outside at the party,
apart from Jenny Page,
who was upstairs.
What have we found out about her?
Well, Sir Peter hired Jenny Page
as his live-in nurse last year,
for his diabetes.
They started dating a few months
later, and then he proposed
to her soon after.
And what happened to the first
Lady Bailey?
Oh, they divorced three years ago.
She lives alone in Marlow,
and she wasn't invited to the party.
So what else have we got?
Oh, well, I spoke to the family,
and the key to the door
that we found
in Sir Peter's pocket
is the only key for that room.
So seeing as he was on his own
when he was found
Suggests he was on his own
when he died.Mm.
But what are we saying?
Sir Peter went into his study,
locked the door, and then pulled
the cabinet onto himself?
Maybe he was trying to reach
for something on top of it?
It's possible.It was full
of heavy scientific kit.
Maybe it was top heavy?Mm.
Brendan, Jason, speak to Adam Warner
about that domestic.
And, Alice, can you check
with local locksmiths?
Is it possible someone made
a copy of the study key?
Got you.
But without any evidence to
the contrary, DCI Greenly told me
she wants us to treat
this as an accidental death.
It was murder.
Old cabinets don't just throw
themselves onto prospective grooms
the day before a wedding.
Yep. Someone was in there
pushing it onto him.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
But how did they get out
of the room afterwards?
Well, that's the million
dollar question.
Could they have left
through the window?
They were painted over.
Hadn't been opened in years.
How about the chimney?
Or is that a stupid idea?
No, I looked at the flue,
but it was only a few inches wide.
Well, if there's no way for
the killer to have got in or out,
it can't have been murder.
Someone was in there and killed
Sir Peter somehow.
If only he'd told me what he was
worried about when he rang me.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
SHE LAUGHS
OK.
Keeping this simple,
there was only one other person
in the house at the time - Jenny.
What, you think his
bride-to-be killed him?
Mm. She said she was upstairs
at the time,
but how do we know
that's where she was?
Nah, I don't buy it.
All Jenny had to do was wait
until she was married
and then killed him.
She'd have been a millionaire.
Well, there is that.
She'd have had the title as well.
Lady Bailey.Exactly.
Why kill someone today when
you can be rich and an aristocrat
if you kill them tomorrow?
I looked her up
on her agency website.
She's worked all over Europe.
Glowing references from France,
Germany, Switzerland.
She's one of their top nurses.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
All right. What's going on?
What?The phone.
Oh, it's just Colin. Mrs Eddingham
is giving a speech at the PCC,
and he's texting me live updates.
Wow. Life in the fast lane.
She's just said, "Back in my day"
for the sixth time.
BECKS LAUGHS
Rosanna Bailey said she was outside
at the party when her father died.
But I don't remember seeing her.
She was wearing a rather
distinctive vintage jacket.
Mm. No, that doesn't ring a bell.
Me neither.What wouldn't I give for
proper access to the crime scene?
Will Tanika let us?No way.
PHONE BUZZES
Judith Potts.
Mrs Potts, I hope you don't mind me
contacting you.
It's Jenny Page.
No. No, of course not, Jenny.
How can we help?
Can you come to the house?
I know Peter trusted you
and I want you to help me
find his new will.
Of course.
Tristram was hanging
around here a few months ago,
and then I noticed a packet
of rat poison was missing.
In there, on that shelf.
And you think Tristram took it?
Sir Peter was always so worried
about his son, what he'd do
to get his hands on his money.
I had to tell him.
When Sir Peter confronted him
about it,
Tristram lost his temper.
SHOUTING
I was frightened he was going to
hurt his father.
Yeah, but he didn't, did he?
Sir Peter chose
not to press charges.
He was a gent.
You got on with him?
He loved this garden
as much as I do.
And how did he treat you?
Always looked out for me.
Mr Warner, is it possible
you just misplaced the rat poison?
I'd have remembered if I'd moved it.
That was a waste of time.
Let's go and get some chicken.
Should probably tell Sarge.
I never planned to fall in love
with one of my patients.
But under all that bluster,
Peter was
..so kind, vulnerable.
I loved him.
Go where you like.
Pull the house apart.
I want his new will found.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
No way. Mrs Eddingham still going?
33 minutes and counting.
Sounds like you and Colin
are really getting along.
We're going on a date.
Mm!Or planning to,
when we find the time.
Oh-la-la.
Hang on.
What is this doing here?
Everything smashed
when the cabinet fell over.
So why is this jar still
in one piece?
It was lucky?
Mm.Suzie, would you?
OK.Hang on. Magnesium.
Is that safe?Yes.
Don't you remember
your chemistry lessons?
Magnesium's a metal.
I wasn't always in
chemistry lessons.
You skived off school?
No. Well, just chemistry.
Who'd have thought travel sweets
could be so versatile?
It's been polished clean.
Not a single fingerprint on it.
KNOCKING
Sarge, I thought you should know,
we saw Mrs Potts and her friends
at Sir Peter's house.
You did? What were they doing?
I don't know.
They could have just been visiting.
Thanks for letting me know.
KNOCKING
I've spoken to two locksmiths
about the key to Sir Peter's study.
They say you can't use modern
machines to copy old keys like that.
Apparently, I need to speak
to some blacksmiths,
so that's what I'm doing.
OK. Thank you.
So Zeta's off to uni next week?
In her head, she left months ago.
At least you can spend these
last few days together.
I've hardly seen her.
I mean, you're desperate
for your children
to become independent.
And how do they pay you back?
By being independent.
Thank you.
So, Judith, what's the goss?
Goss?
I don't do gossip.
Oh, behave. You are all gossip.
Well, as it happens, I've started
doing the crossword
in the Maidenhead Advertiser.
And that's your gossip?Whoever sets
it is putting in secret messages.
The answers in the four corners
are always a location,
a day and a time.
What do you think of that?Mm.
Oh!
What's this doing here?
What is it?I happened to notice
there was a button missing
on Rosanna's jacket.
So what's it doing in her
father's dressing room?
Where am I going?
It's this turning on the right.
Are you sure
this is the right address?
17. That's what it
says on the website.
DOG BARKS
Yes?
You're Lady Bailey, aren't you?
It's lovely to meet you.
I'm Becks Starling.
I'm the wife of the vicar
of All Saints.
These are my friends.
At least you referred
to me correctly.
It's not Mrs Bailey
or, God forbid, Ms Bailey.
It's Lady Bailey.Of course.
These things are important.
They are.
Is your daughter in?
Rosanna has an office in my garden.
Can I interest any of you ladies
in a gin and tonic?
No, I'm sure we'll be fine.
Thank you.Thank you.
What are you doing here?
We want to know how a button
from your jacket ended up
in your father's dressing room.
In families like ours,
the first-born son gets everything.
So Tristram, who doesn't have a job,
isn't in any kind of relationship,
isn't a serious person,
gets whatever he wants.
Monthly allowance, got it.
Money to travel.
He spent three months in the south
of France last year.
What was he doing there?
He thinks he's an artist.
Says he wants to move to
the Cote d'Azur for the light.
Whereas you?
Oh, I'm just the daughter.
I get nothing.
Tell me about your eco business.
I run a consultancy that helps
people make greener choices.
But people don't have as much
money as they used to,
and the grants aren't
what they once were.
So you argued with your father,
as Tristram said?
I needed a bridging loan.
Just for a few months.
But father refused.
And it all came out.
I couldn't help myself.
How I'd always been treated
like a second-class citizen
in my own family. I didn't
even get a penny in his will.
And all he'd say
was that he had no choice.
It's how it's been for generations.
But it got nasty.
It had been building for years.
Why won't you help me?!
A few days later, I went back.
I had to clear the air.
I saw Father with our lawyer
and Adam Warner, signing something.
It all seemed cloak and dagger,
so I kept out of the way.
And that's when I found out
that Father had a new will
and was putting it in his safe.
Had he finally listened to me?
But that's why I was in Father's
bedroom before he died.
Everyone was at the party,
and I went upstairs
to try and open his safe.
I had to know -
had he left me anything?
I tried the combination -
Tristram's birthday -
but he must have changed it.
And then I heard someone
come up the stairs.
It was Jenny.
So you hid in his dressing room?
Did Jenny see you?
No.
But I could see her through
a crack in the door.
And then I heard a crash.
CRASHING
I waited till the coast was clear
before I dared go downstairs myself.
Look, my father was a difficult man,
and we fought,
but he was still my father.
I loved him. And I know
he loved me, in his own way.
I just wish he'd liked me.
Nah.
You killed him.
Sorry?I think you opened the safe
that day
and you found the new will
and it still gave you nothing.
So you got rid of it, tore it up,
and then you went downstairs
and pushed that cabinet
onto your dad.
No.The man who didn't believe
in saving the planet,
who didn't believe in you.
No, I was upstairs when he died.
Yeah. At some point. But how do
we know
that's where you were when the
cabinet was pushed onto your dad?
Look, I hate Jenny,
I'll admit it.
She was only ever after
Father's money.
It was the one thing Tristram
and I agreed on.
She was upstairs when he died.
I'll vouch for her, even though
it puts her in the clear,
because that's where I was as well,
as this button proves.
This family, all they care about
is the money.
But this is bad news, isn't it?
If Rosanna was upstairs with Jenny
at the time, that's two suspects
that couldn't have done it.OK, it
just means that someone else
killed him.Like who?
The only person that's ever
benefited from the death
is Tristram.And he was outside
with us at the time.
I know - what if he had
an accomplice?
Who was inside the study, killing
Sir Peter while he stayed outside?
Like who?How about
the loyal gardener?
You mean Adam Warner?
Oh, his name does keep cropping up.
Then we need to go and talk
with him.
You know, I love the idea
of Tristram having an accomplice.
Alice, have you got an update
on the study key?
I spoke to two blacksmiths.
They said if anyone had tried
to make a copy of the key,
there would be marks on
the original
when it was gripped in a vice
or whatever.
And there weren't any marks.
No-one's ever made a copy
of that key.
It's the only one.
Sorry.
Ma'am?Detective Sergeant,
just wanted to check in
on the Bailey case.Of course.
Any credible suspects?
A few possibles,
but they've all got alibis.
Then any theories on how someone
might have killed him and then got
out of the room afterwards?
None that makes sense, but there's
something not right about it.
We still can't find Sir Peter's
latest will
and he contacted Judith Potts
that morning.
He said he was worried.
About what?
He thought something
bad would happen.
What evidence is there of foul play?
Nothing that would stand
up in court.
We only have limited resources
and a backlog of cases.
But if I could justNo. Unless
and until a new and concrete lead
develops, it's time to move on.
Yes, ma'am.But good work.
It is important to be thorough.
When the DCI first asked me
to act up,
she told me I should
trust my instincts.
She wants us to drop
the Bailey case.
And what do your instincts say?
CRASHING
Those are my father's plates!
WOMAN SCREAMS
Are you paying for those?!
This is MY house!
I want you out of here.
Pack your things!
Hey, hey!Oi, what are you doing?
What the hell are you doing here?
He attacked me.Oh, what are you
talking about?
I didn't lay a hand on her. She's
What do you think you're doing?
This is my house!
I decide who stays in it or not.
No, it isn't.Excuse me,
but I think you're
You don't get anything until your
father's estate clears probate.
Not his money, not this house.
And you certainly don't get
to throw anyone out of it.
Jenny stays.
BUZZING
I told you not to call me.
That caller display said Cupcakes.
Cupcakes?
Do you know who that is?
No.
I thought Rosanna said
he didn't have a girlfriend.
That's right. He doesn't.
TRISTRAM:Now's not the best time.
Right now. Right now is not
a good time
for us to be seen
together, because
No, no, no, no.
Stay where you are.
I'm coming to you.
I'm coming to you right now.
I'm going to be there
in five minutes.

Quicker, quicker!
Sorry!
Hey.Where the hell have you been?
I have a life to lead, OK?
But you were supposed to come
and see me this morning.
Yes.You promised!I was going to,
but I'm here now.
Oh! So where were you?
I've been busy.
So have I, but I fit in with you!
I'm always fitting in with you.
OK.
Have either of you seen
this woman before?
It never is, is it?
It's always about you!
PHONE BUZZES
I don't need this from you, OK?!
Tanika?I've got to drop
this Peter Bailey case.
What?I can't prove any crime's
been committed.
But Sir Peter knew something was up.
That's why he rang me.
The cabinet had been removed
from its hook beforehand
and fingerprints were wiped
from evidence in the room.
You know about that?And Sir Peter's
new will is still missing.
I don't know who did it
or how it was done,
or why it was done for that matter.
But I know he was killed.
I think I agree.
We even have a prime suspect.
Tristram Bailey.But he was outside
talking toTalking to us.
I know. But what if I told
you he was working with someone?
It might have been her who was
inside killing Sir Peter
while he was outside with us.
You think he's got an accomplice?
He's got an accomplice!
Let's meet up. But no-one can know.
Looks like we've got a killer
to catch.Understood.

CHURCH BELLS CHIME
No, no, no, no
Good morning, Mrs Eddingham.
You're on time.
And you are late, Mrs Starling.
I'm so sorry.
You have the key?
Of course.
It's almost as if I should
get you your own copy.
The crypt is your responsibility.
Well, here we are, then.
Thank you.
I'll be an hour.
Maybe longer.
It's terribly dusty down here.
SUPRESSED SCREAM
What on earth is going on?
Are you OK?
I'm great.
This
This is me being great.
WHISPERS:Mrs Eddingham!
Why does Mrs Eddingham need access
to the crypt?
Well, that's obvious.
She's measuring herself up
for a new coffin to sleep in.
She's researching her family
history, trying to work out
what century she was born!
PHONE VIBRATES
Oh. Excuse me.
Hello, Judith Potts.
Ah, Mrs Potts.
It's Peter Bailey here.
I hope you don't mind me calling.
I got your number from
Mrs Eddingham.
I want to invite you to a party.
I'm sorry?
This afternoon, to celebrate
my marriage tomorrow.
What do you say?
What I would say, Sir Peter,
is that we've never met.
Oh, your reputation precedes you.
And I'm worriedsomething
might happen.
Something bad?
Look, I can't say,
not over the phone.
Come to the party.
I'll tell you all about it then.
It's from 2.30. Will you be there?
Oh, of course. On one condition.
That I can bring two friends
with me.
Well, absolutely,
as many as you like.

Well, this is something, isn't it?
Oh, you can say that again.
It's quite a lot of something!
LAUGHTER
Oh, hello.
Thank you.
Ladies.Thanks.
So what's the plan?
Let's start with Sir Peter.
Does anyone know what he looks like?
MEN LAUGH LOUDLY
And then his legs fell off!
Ha-ha-ha!
I think we've found him.
What is it with the red trousers?
They are rather vivid.
At least we won't lose him
in the crowd.
Oh, we'll chat later.
Will you excuse me?
Peter, come with me.
Well, he's the groom.
He's in demand.
So how about we try and find
the bride-to-be?Mm.
Peter said it was his grandma's
engagement ring,
and then his mum's.
And now it's yours.
MUSIC: Habanera from Carmen

Lady Bailey tomorrow.
Not that the title matters!
I'm so lucky.
ENGINE APPROACHES
No.
He said he wouldn't.
Jenny!
Why are you here, Tristram?
You promised!
I changed my mind.
How dare you do this to your father?
I want to celebrate
the happy couple.
The plot thickens.
Tristram, I told you
you're not welcome.
What the hell are you doing here?!
This is my home.
No, it bloody well isn't.
You can't bear to see
your dad happy, can you?!
Jenny Oh, now look
what you've done.
Nice to see you too.
CHATTER AND MUSIC RESUMES
Are we really going to pretend
that didn't just happen?
It's the English way.
Erm, Judith Potts.
I think you might need another one.
Thank you. Tristram Bailey.
Oh, Sir Peter's son.
Sadly for both of us, yes.
It can be complicated,
a parent remarried.
Especially when the person your
dad's marrying is his nurse.
My sister and I reckon he's
just doing it to get out of
paying her wages.You have a sister?
Mm. Rosanna. She should be knocking
about here somewhere.
Anyway, erm
..to the happy couple.

What was that?
That didn't sound good.
Dad?

Where's Dad?
It came from downstairs.

I'm sure the sounds

We need to get you out of here.
SuzieYeah.
Come on. She's right.
Come on.
Ambulance Service.
Sir Peter Bailey.
I'm so sorry.
How did it happen?
Ask for the police too.
We need to clear this room.
Come on, people.
SOBBING CONTINUES
We need the police.
This is a crime scene -
don't touch anything, please!
SIRENS BLARE
Jason, round up the witnesses.
Alice, prepare an area
to take statements.
Sarge.
Thank you for coming. There's been
the most terrible accident.
Please, take a few steps back
for me.
My name is DC Jason Kennedy.OK
Suzie, Becks, you stay here,
talk to people, hunt around.
We need to start investigating.
Won't Tanika mind?
Mind? She'll be livid.
But until she tells us
we can't nose around
We can do what we like.
Yeah, I like it.
Where are you going?
Hmm.
Anyone found the key to this door?
In his pocket.
That certainly looks like it.
Oh, Mrs Potts.
What are you doing here?
I don't think this was an accident.
I'm sorry?
I think someone killed Sir Peter.
Hello, Judith.Hello, Tanika.
How's Shanti?
She's great, thanks.
Not sure this is the right moment.
No, no, of course not.
Sir Peter rang me this morning,
invited me to the party.
He was worried that something
bad might happen.
Well, here we are.
Ah, Detective Sergeant,
you might want to look at
the side of the cabinet.
There's an old hook on the wall
for keeping it upright.
Only it's been unhooked.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, Mrs Potts is right.
It doesn't mean it's done
recently, though.
Look, the family are saying
it was an accident.
The door to the room was locked,
which is why it had
to be broken through.
I know - I was with them
at the time.
And they found no-one else
in the room when they got into it,
and no other way in or out.
The windows don't open.
So if this was murder, just how did
the killer push that cabinet
onto Sir Peter and then get through
the locked door afterwards?
I'm still working on that bit.
It all started when
Tristram arrived.
It all started when my dad hired
a gold-digger for a nurse.
I loved your dad. He loved me.
Yeah, I don't doubt
that for a second.
It was in your interest to make sure
he did - your financial interests.
Please!
The pair of you.
KNOCK AT DOOR
Judith?
I'msorry to intrude.
I know how hard this is for you,
but Sir Peter wanted me here.
He suggested that there
were tensions in the family
about the upcoming wedding.
You can say that again.
And you're his daughter?
Rosanna Bailey.
It's Tristram you need to speak to.
Yes, your arrival at the party
made your father very angry.
Is that true?
My brother was stupid enough
to let Father know his opinions
about his stepmother-to-be.
He was banned from attending,
weren't you?
I can do what I like.
TANIKA:What happened?
Jenny went for me, made a huge scene
in front of all the guests,
and then fled for the house.
I was upset.
TANIKA: Where did you go?
I I had to get away.
I I wanted a cigarette.
Not that I smoke, not normally.
Peter has a pack in our bedroom.
That's where I went.
You didn't see him come
into the house after you?
I didn't know he'd even followed me.
And I never went into the house,
so I have no idea
what happened either.
But if we're talking about tensions,
why don't you tell everyone
about yours and Dad's big bust up?
What's this?
It was nothing.
My sister's company needed a loan,
and dad said he wouldn't throw
good money after bad.
Isn't that right?
Where were you when
the crash happened?
I was outside with the other guests.
I don't remember seeing you,
and I'm sure I'd have remembered
such a distinctive jacket.
Oh, you've lost a button
on your cuff.
It's vintage.
Button fell off.
DOOR OPENS
Oh, God.
Jenny, I'm so sorry.
Rosanna, Tristram, this is the most
terrible news.
Excuse me.
Of course.
Apologies. I'm Andrew Husselbee,
the family's lawyer.
I'm here to collect Sir Peter's
most recent will.
What do you mean, most recent?
Peter made a new will
three weeks ago.
What?
What's in the new will?
Well, it was all rather irregular.
He wouldn't tell me.
But you're his lawyer.
And your father just wanted me
to witness it,
along with Adam, your gardener.
He didn't tell either of us
what was in it.
The safe is over here.
Peter said he'd changed
the combination to the date
of our wedding.
Tell me, what was in the old will,
the one he was replacing?
Well, it left his entire
estate to Tristram.
JENNY GASPS
Oh, I'm sorry.
Come on, let's sit you down.
It's in a long white envelope.
I don't see an envelope in here.
You're right. It's not there.
So if the new will can't be found,
then the old will still stands.
How very interesting.
Judith, I think I can take it
from here.
Thank you.
What a good idea.
Have you found something?
Yep, we have.
Someone was hiding in the bushes.
Look, look, look.
Right outside Sir Peter's study.
Oh, this is good!
The soil's damp.
Someone's recently watered this bed.
And the prints have been there
since then.
Oh, and there's a cut,
across the left sole.
These prints were left by
a pair of ladies Hunter wellies.
You can tell from
the pattern on the heel.
Hold on. You know this how?
Its my specialist subject -
posh wellies of Marlow.
SUZIE LAUGHS
Wonderful.
So there was a woman here.
So what are we saying?
Could this be our killer?
Well, it's possible, although
Tanika thinks Sir Peter's death
was an accident.What about you?
What do you think?
I think my house, tomorrow morning.
See you both then.
Luna! Hello, girl!
Hello.
No, these are not for you.
No, no, no.
Zeta! I've got fish and chips!
SHE CHUCKLES
I'll even let you watch
your favourite TV show.
Zeta!
Oh.
Well, I guess it's just
you and me, girl.
POUNDING DANCE MUSIC
Cup of tea coming up.
I'm so sorry about Mrs Eddingham.
Oh, she told you?
At great length.
She wants to raise the matter
of crypt access at the next PCC.
Wow. I bet you can't
wait for that meeting.
HE CHUCKLES
DANCE MUSIC GETS LOUDER
BOTH: Music!
Oh, what? Sorry for living!
When we first met, you used
to hang out with rock stars.
Well, I really just wanted
to hang out with you.
Well, now our life is the kids,
Mrs Eddingham
and the parochial church council.
Oh, with a bit of murder
on the side.
We should go on a date.
What? Us?Yes, us.
Just us. No kids.
How long has that been?
You can't bear to see your dad
happy, can you?!Jenny!
I don't remember seeing you.
Peter made a new will
three weeks ago.
It all started when my dad hired
a gold-digger for a nurse.
Right, Jasper, who has something
to hide?
Sunday. Chequers.
I've been running background
checks on the family.
There was a domestic
three months ago.
We were called to Sir Peter's
house by Adam Warner.
He's their gardener.
OK, everyone, what else
have we got on the Bailey case?
Oh, uh, well, Sarge, the postmortem
is in, and the cause of death
was blunt force trauma to the head.
So no surprises there,
seeing as a bloody great
big cabinet fell onto him.
And the time of death
is about 3pm,
which fits with the witness
statements.
What did our witnesses say?
No-one saw anything.
They were all outside at the party,
apart from Jenny Page,
who was upstairs.
What have we found out about her?
Well, Sir Peter hired Jenny Page
as his live-in nurse last year,
for his diabetes.
They started dating a few months
later, and then he proposed
to her soon after.
And what happened to the first
Lady Bailey?
Oh, they divorced three years ago.
She lives alone in Marlow,
and she wasn't invited to the party.
So what else have we got?
Oh, well, I spoke to the family,
and the key to the door
that we found
in Sir Peter's pocket
is the only key for that room.
So seeing as he was on his own
when he was found
Suggests he was on his own
when he died.Mm.
But what are we saying?
Sir Peter went into his study,
locked the door, and then pulled
the cabinet onto himself?
Maybe he was trying to reach
for something on top of it?
It's possible.It was full
of heavy scientific kit.
Maybe it was top heavy?Mm.
Brendan, Jason, speak to Adam Warner
about that domestic.
And, Alice, can you check
with local locksmiths?
Is it possible someone made
a copy of the study key?
Got you.
But without any evidence to
the contrary, DCI Greenly told me
she wants us to treat
this as an accidental death.
It was murder.
Old cabinets don't just throw
themselves onto prospective grooms
the day before a wedding.
Yep. Someone was in there
pushing it onto him.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
But how did they get out
of the room afterwards?
Well, that's the million
dollar question.
Could they have left
through the window?
They were painted over.
Hadn't been opened in years.
How about the chimney?
Or is that a stupid idea?
No, I looked at the flue,
but it was only a few inches wide.
Well, if there's no way for
the killer to have got in or out,
it can't have been murder.
Someone was in there and killed
Sir Peter somehow.
If only he'd told me what he was
worried about when he rang me.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
SHE LAUGHS
OK.
Keeping this simple,
there was only one other person
in the house at the time - Jenny.
What, you think his
bride-to-be killed him?
Mm. She said she was upstairs
at the time,
but how do we know
that's where she was?
Nah, I don't buy it.
All Jenny had to do was wait
until she was married
and then killed him.
She'd have been a millionaire.
Well, there is that.
She'd have had the title as well.
Lady Bailey.Exactly.
Why kill someone today when
you can be rich and an aristocrat
if you kill them tomorrow?
I looked her up
on her agency website.
She's worked all over Europe.
Glowing references from France,
Germany, Switzerland.
She's one of their top nurses.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
All right. What's going on?
What?The phone.
Oh, it's just Colin. Mrs Eddingham
is giving a speech at the PCC,
and he's texting me live updates.
Wow. Life in the fast lane.
She's just said, "Back in my day"
for the sixth time.
BECKS LAUGHS
Rosanna Bailey said she was outside
at the party when her father died.
But I don't remember seeing her.
She was wearing a rather
distinctive vintage jacket.
Mm. No, that doesn't ring a bell.
Me neither.What wouldn't I give for
proper access to the crime scene?
Will Tanika let us?No way.
PHONE BUZZES
Judith Potts.
Mrs Potts, I hope you don't mind me
contacting you.
It's Jenny Page.
No. No, of course not, Jenny.
How can we help?
Can you come to the house?
I know Peter trusted you
and I want you to help me
find his new will.
Of course.
Tristram was hanging
around here a few months ago,
and then I noticed a packet
of rat poison was missing.
In there, on that shelf.
And you think Tristram took it?
Sir Peter was always so worried
about his son, what he'd do
to get his hands on his money.
I had to tell him.
When Sir Peter confronted him
about it,
Tristram lost his temper.
SHOUTING
I was frightened he was going to
hurt his father.
Yeah, but he didn't, did he?
Sir Peter chose
not to press charges.
He was a gent.
You got on with him?
He loved this garden
as much as I do.
And how did he treat you?
Always looked out for me.
Mr Warner, is it possible
you just misplaced the rat poison?
I'd have remembered if I'd moved it.
That was a waste of time.
Let's go and get some chicken.
Should probably tell Sarge.
I never planned to fall in love
with one of my patients.
But under all that bluster,
Peter was
..so kind, vulnerable.
I loved him.
Go where you like.
Pull the house apart.
I want his new will found.
CHURCH BELLS PHONE ALER
No way. Mrs Eddingham still going?
33 minutes and counting.
Sounds like you and Colin
are really getting along.
We're going on a date.
Mm!Or planning to,
when we find the time.
Oh-la-la.
Hang on.
What is this doing here?
Everything smashed
when the cabinet fell over.
So why is this jar still
in one piece?
It was lucky?
Mm.Suzie, would you?
OK.Hang on. Magnesium.
Is that safe?Yes.
Don't you remember
your chemistry lessons?
Magnesium's a metal.
I wasn't always in
chemistry lessons.
You skived off school?
No. Well, just chemistry.
Who'd have thought travel sweets
could be so versatile?
It's been polished clean.
Not a single fingerprint on it.
KNOCKING
Sarge, I thought you should know,
we saw Mrs Potts and her friends
at Sir Peter's house.
You did? What were they doing?
I don't know.
They could have just been visiting.
Thanks for letting me know.
KNOCKING
I've spoken to two locksmiths
about the key to Sir Peter's study.
They say you can't use modern
machines to copy old keys like that.
Apparently, I need to speak
to some blacksmiths,
so that's what I'm doing.
OK. Thank you.
So Zeta's off to uni next week?
In her head, she left months ago.
At least you can spend these
last few days together.
I've hardly seen her.
I mean, you're desperate
for your children
to become independent.
And how do they pay you back?
By being independent.
Thank you.
So, Judith, what's the goss?
Goss?
I don't do gossip.
Oh, behave. You are all gossip.
Well, as it happens, I've started
doing the crossword
in the Maidenhead Advertiser.
And that's your gossip?Whoever sets
it is putting in secret messages.
The answers in the four corners
are always a location,
a day and a time.
What do you think of that?Mm.
Oh!
What's this doing here?
What is it?I happened to notice
there was a button missing
on Rosanna's jacket.
So what's it doing in her
father's dressing room?
Where am I going?
It's this turning on the right.
Are you sure
this is the right address?
17. That's what it
says on the website.
DOG BARKS
Yes?
You're Lady Bailey, aren't you?
It's lovely to meet you.
I'm Becks Starling.
I'm the wife of the vicar
of All Saints.
These are my friends.
At least you referred
to me correctly.
It's not Mrs Bailey
or, God forbid, Ms Bailey.
It's Lady Bailey.Of course.
These things are important.
They are.
Is your daughter in?
Rosanna has an office in my garden.
Can I interest any of you ladies
in a gin and tonic?
No, I'm sure we'll be fine.
Thank you.Thank you.
What are you doing here?
We want to know how a button
from your jacket ended up
in your father's dressing room.
In families like ours,
the first-born son gets everything.
So Tristram, who doesn't have a job,
isn't in any kind of relationship,
isn't a serious person,
gets whatever he wants.
Monthly allowance, got it.
Money to travel.
He spent three months in the south
of France last year.
What was he doing there?
He thinks he's an artist.
Says he wants to move to
the Cote d'Azur for the light.
Whereas you?
Oh, I'm just the daughter.
I get nothing.
Tell me about your eco business.
I run a consultancy that helps
people make greener choices.
But people don't have as much
money as they used to,
and the grants aren't
what they once were.
So you argued with your father,
as Tristram said?
I needed a bridging loan.
Just for a few months.
But father refused.
And it all came out.
I couldn't help myself.
How I'd always been treated
like a second-class citizen
in my own family. I didn't
even get a penny in his will.
And all he'd say
was that he had no choice.
It's how it's been for generations.
But it got nasty.
It had been building for years.
Why won't you help me?!
A few days later, I went back.
I had to clear the air.
I saw Father with our lawyer
and Adam Warner, signing something.
It all seemed cloak and dagger,
so I kept out of the way.
And that's when I found out
that Father had a new will
and was putting it in his safe.
Had he finally listened to me?
But that's why I was in Father's
bedroom before he died.
Everyone was at the party,
and I went upstairs
to try and open his safe.
I had to know -
had he left me anything?
I tried the combination -
Tristram's birthday -
but he must have changed it.
And then I heard someone
come up the stairs.
It was Jenny.
So you hid in his dressing room?
Did Jenny see you?
No.
But I could see her through
a crack in the door.
And then I heard a crash.
CRASHING
I waited till the coast was clear
before I dared go downstairs myself.
Look, my father was a difficult man,
and we fought,
but he was still my father.
I loved him. And I know
he loved me, in his own way.
I just wish he'd liked me.
Nah.
You killed him.
Sorry?I think you opened the safe
that day
and you found the new will
and it still gave you nothing.
So you got rid of it, tore it up,
and then you went downstairs
and pushed that cabinet
onto your dad.
No.The man who didn't believe
in saving the planet,
who didn't believe in you.
No, I was upstairs when he died.
Yeah. At some point. But how do
we know
that's where you were when the
cabinet was pushed onto your dad?
Look, I hate Jenny,
I'll admit it.
She was only ever after
Father's money.
It was the one thing Tristram
and I agreed on.
She was upstairs when he died.
I'll vouch for her, even though
it puts her in the clear,
because that's where I was as well,
as this button proves.
This family, all they care about
is the money.
But this is bad news, isn't it?
If Rosanna was upstairs with Jenny
at the time, that's two suspects
that couldn't have done it.OK, it
just means that someone else
killed him.Like who?
The only person that's ever
benefited from the death
is Tristram.And he was outside
with us at the time.
I know - what if he had
an accomplice?
Who was inside the study, killing
Sir Peter while he stayed outside?
Like who?How about
the loyal gardener?
You mean Adam Warner?
Oh, his name does keep cropping up.
Then we need to go and talk
with him.
You know, I love the idea
of Tristram having an accomplice.
Alice, have you got an update
on the study key?
I spoke to two blacksmiths.
They said if anyone had tried
to make a copy of the key,
there would be marks on
the original
when it was gripped in a vice
or whatever.
And there weren't any marks.
No-one's ever made a copy
of that key.
It's the only one.
Sorry.
Ma'am?Detective Sergeant,
just wanted to check in
on the Bailey case.Of course.
Any credible suspects?
A few possibles,
but they've all got alibis.
Then any theories on how someone
might have killed him and then got
out of the room afterwards?
None that makes sense, but there's
something not right about it.
We still can't find Sir Peter's
latest will
and he contacted Judith Potts
that morning.
He said he was worried.
About what?
He thought something
bad would happen.
What evidence is there of foul play?
Nothing that would stand
up in court.
We only have limited resources
and a backlog of cases.
But if I could justNo. Unless
and until a new and concrete lead
develops, it's time to move on.
Yes, ma'am.But good work.
It is important to be thorough.
When the DCI first asked me
to act up,
she told me I should
trust my instincts.
She wants us to drop
the Bailey case.
And what do your instincts say?
CRASHING
Those are my father's plates!
WOMAN SCREAMS
Are you paying for those?!
This is MY house!
I want you out of here.
Pack your things!
Hey, hey!Oi, what are you doing?
What the hell are you doing here?
He attacked me.Oh, what are you
talking about?
I didn't lay a hand on her. She's
What do you think you're doing?
This is my house!
I decide who stays in it or not.
No, it isn't.Excuse me,
but I think you're
You don't get anything until your
father's estate clears probate.
Not his money, not this house.
And you certainly don't get
to throw anyone out of it.
Jenny stays.
BUZZING
I told you not to call me.
That caller display said Cupcakes.
Cupcakes?
Do you know who that is?
No.
I thought Rosanna said
he didn't have a girlfriend.
That's right. He doesn't.
TRISTRAM:Now's not the best time.
Right now. Right now is not
a good time
for us to be seen
together, because
No, no, no, no.
Stay where you are.
I'm coming to you.
I'm coming to you right now.
I'm going to be there
in five minutes.
Yes.
I'm about
TRISTRAM TALKS
Rather than just shouting
Oh, no! Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
Oh, no.
Oh, no!
We can't let him get away!
Bob!
Yes, Suzie?I need a favour.
Whoa!Suzie!This doesn't feel safe.
Come on.Stay in the lane, Suzie!
Morning!Sylvie!Sorry!
Let's get some speed on this.
Pedal to the metal!
Oh, God!Hold on, ladies.
Steady, Suzie!
Hi.Hi.
Mrs Potts?
Whoa!
Where is he going?Go, go, go!
Left, everyone!Indicate.
HORN BEEPS
You got a licence?Get off
the road!Learn to drive!
Speed bump ahead.Slow down, Suzie.
Careful, Suzie!
Hold on. Brace yourself.
Oh, God!
Oh!
Blimey.
Go, Susie! Go!
Come on!Quicker, quicker, quicker!
I'm going, I'm going.
Right, right.
Taking the corner.Down there.
Don't lose him.Yeah, I can see him.
Got him.Come on!
Quicker, quicker!
Sorry!
Hey.Where the hell have you been?
I have a life to lead, OK?
But you were supposed to come
and see me this morning.
Yes.You promised!I was going to,
but I'm here now.
Oh! So where were you?
I've been busy.
So have I, but I fit in with you!
I'm always fitting in with you.
OK.
Have either of you seen
this woman before?
It never is, is it?
It's always about you!
PHONE BUZZES
I don't need this from you, OK?!
Tanika?I've got to drop
this Peter Bailey case.
What?I can't prove any crime's
been committed.
But Sir Peter knew something was up.
That's why he rang me.
The cabinet had been removed
from its hook beforehand
and fingerprints were wiped
from evidence in the room.
You know about that?And Sir Peter's
new will is still missing.
I don't know who did it
or how it was done,
or why it was done for that matter.
But I know he was killed.
I think I agree.
We even have a prime suspect.
Tristram Bailey.But he was outside
talking toTalking to us.
I know. But what if I told
you he was working with someone?
It might have been her who was
inside killing Sir Peter
while he was outside with us.
You think he's got an accomplice?
He's got an accomplice!
Let's meet up. But no-one can know.
Looks like we've got a killer
to catch.Understood.
