One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Have a good trip.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
A bloody reporter more than like!
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
How is he?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Come on, Ronnie. Let's get out of here.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
This is no place for you.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Come back to my place. Get away from here.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
They've been turning out as far as Newcastle. Everybody's out.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
We'll get the buggers, Ronnie.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I promise you.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
just a couple of swabs, Ronnie.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I'll leave a man here.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
They may be back.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I'll see you first thing in the morning.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Jones...
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I want a car at the end of the drive. Three men. Armed.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I've had to stand down the night watch, sir. They're dead on their feet.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
There's nothing here for them.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Yeah.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Who the hell is Pendleton?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
What's Godbolt doing here? Doesn't he know what's going on?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
 I had to stand them down, Ronnie. They're away from here by now.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
The road blocks will stay till noon.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Then I meet the press. Do you want to come?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I've been working on the assumption that this was a grudge killing.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
She stepped out in front of the gun. That's what you said last night?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
But it was aimed at you?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
So it has to be someone on this list.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie, this list is important. I think we should go through it. Unless you think it's a waste of time.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Is there anything you want me to tell the media?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
There's a note from Muntsey.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
The coroners are postponing their report pending your identification.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Can you manage that?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Are you sure?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie...
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Officially, you have nothing to do with this enquiry.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Unofficially, keep me informed.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Why?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Did Emma have a boyfriend?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Terry Shields, Latchmere Road, N10. The Met checked him out.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
And they gave him a clean bill of health. He's a political agitator, evidently.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie, what about this list? I've narrowed it down from 50...
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I'm not with you.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
Are you saying this has nothing to do with revenge?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
OK. Well look after yourself while you're down there.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I'll let the Met know you're coming. We'll be in contact daily.
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
I suppose there's nothing else I should know before you go?
|
|
|
|
One: Compassionate Leave
|
ROSS
|
About Emma, for instance?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] Ronnie, did you hear the news?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
We found the car. Got Lowe's fingerprints all over it.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
Fifth on my list. You put him away 10 years ago, remember?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
I'm not saying anything until we've picked him up. The Yard says he's in London. They should have him by noon.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] I'm sending Jonesy down to make the arrest. Are you with me, Ronnie?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] I said I'm putting Jonesy on the train.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] When you see Elham, tell him our man's on his way.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
Be nice to him, Ronnie. He's been very helpful so far.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
What does he want?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
Well if he gives you any aggro, just refer him to me, right? Bye now.
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O. REPLAYED ON PHONE] What does he want?
|
|
|
|
Two: Into The Shadows
|
ROSS
|
[V.O. REPLAYED ON PHONE] If he gives you any aggro, Just refer him to me.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
He's still alive. Just.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
I want you to talk to him.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Not well. Not well at all.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
I want Craven to talk to him. Alone.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
We need the name of the other man. We're not gonna get it unless he sees him alone.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
...surprised him while he was at breakfast. There was a struggle, and still struggling, he was brought out
of the flat into the corridor. An attempt was made to take him down the emergency stairs.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] At this point, he broke free and reached the window.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] Yes.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] An oversight, I presume.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
He must have had something on you to turn up on your doorstep.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
There's not one ounce of evidence to support that notion, Ronnie, and you know that!
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
What else? They came looking for you, they shot her. It's just one of those things, Ronnie.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
[O.S.] I think he's cracking up.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
We just matched McCroon's thumbprint with the gun in the car. It fits.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
[V.O.] The feeling here is, he's still in the north.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
I want you to come back with me, Ronnie. You can stay at my place till we've got this sorted.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
The 7.15.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie, now that Lowe's dead, I want you back.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Okay, but no more.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
You know, Ronnie, you can't make allegations like this and expect to be taken seriously.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
We know it was McCroon. We have Lowe's dying statement, we have his prints on the car. Doesn't that satisfy you?
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
We know why he did it. It was revenge. Does he have to put a bullet in you before you'll admit it?
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Now, this is going in my safe and it will stay there until you come to your senses.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
It's out of the question.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie, you're not well. You're depressed. I think you should see a doctor.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
No.
|
|
|
|
Three: Burden Of Proof
|
ROSS
|
All right. If you agree to see a doctor, we'll take it off, but not the telephone intercept. You understand?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
We know it was McCroon. Does he have to put a bullet in you before you'll admit it?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
All right, but not the telephone intercept. You understand?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
How's the patient?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
No, I mean, is he suffering from shock, or depression or what?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
The what being?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Hello, Ronnie. How are you?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Yes, we tidied up a bit. Sorted things out.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Well... We got McCroon before he got you.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Jesus Christ, Ronnie. He was going to kill you.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Ronnie, I knew exactly what I was doing. We saved your life.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Perhaps you didn't want it saved?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
I'm closing the case, Ronnie.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Now, nothing's ever cleared up, you know that. We don't know how he got the gun or your address. We still don't really know why he did it, but I don't think we ever will know.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
I know it sounds callous, but at least you've been spared the stress of a trial and the dirt that goes with it.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
To your health, Ronnie. And may she rest in peace.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
I'm Detective Chief Superintendent Ross. Who are you?
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Craven mentioned the name.
|
|
|
|
Four: Breakthrough
|
ROSS
|
Oh, not really. Just needs a bit of a rest, that's all.
