New Blood

Are you OK, Rash?

What happened?

We crashed.

Jesus.

Are you hurt?

We're upside down.

Yep.

There's something dripping down my back.

What's dripping down my back?

It's petrol.

- What?! - It's petrol!

- Well, I think we should get out! - Yeah, definitely.

How... could this... get any worse?

They're coming back!

Get out!

I can't!

Rash, get out!

My seatbelt! I can't!

Rash! Get out!

Get out!

Wiggle it!

I have wiggled it, it's stuck!

What's he doing?

Come on!

I told you, I can't move, I'm stuck!

Yeah, I'll help!

Come on.

- It's no good. - It's coming!

Listen... Just go!

I'm not going without you.

There's no point in us both sitting here!

Oh, come on! - Look, just go! - I'm not leaving you!

Why do you have to be so bloody obstinate?!

It's coming, it's coming!

Good morning.

Hi, I'm Arrash Sayyad.

Stefan Kowolski.

Yes, do come in.

Feel free to take a look around.

It's always nice to get a feel for the place.

Neither of you are smokers?

No.

The owner is very insistent about that.

And, of course, no animals.

That's you out.

Hm! Funny(!)

Who is the owner?

It's not an individual, it's a company.

You do realise it's very unusual for a property of this calibre

to come onto the rental market and at such a low price?

Oh, excuse me.

We've got to take it!

Mate, this place is amazing!

Yeah.

All right, well, let's tell her we want it and get on with it.

Yeah.

There is... There's got to be a catch.

- Why do you have to be so negative? - Cos it's too good to be true.

Mate, it's not...

Amazing view!

Told you.

Excuse me?

You didn't say anything about this being an open house.

I'm sorry. If you're interested in the property,

we'll consider you for the shortlist.

How short exactly?

We'll need to check your finances and then your references

and then there will be interviews with the agency.

- For everyone, or...? - Not everyone.

Not everyone.

You're a detective, I'm a serious fraud investigator.

We're perfect.

Yeah.

As long as you don't get blind drunk or high on drugs, we'll be fine.

You're never going to let me forget that! - No.

It's perfect.

Guv?

Burglaries.

You're not serious?

Well, it's still a crime, Derek, or hadn't you noticed?

My heart bleeds for the victims,

but it's not really our department, is it?

Six burglaries in two months,

high-end apartments, all smart addresses.

Last week the AC had dinner at City Hall.

The... subject came up.

I get it. I suppose you want me to take Wonder Boy with me.

Well, you're a good team.

We're not a team, we are a situation.

Well, you're still getting results. Here, I tell you what,

his six-month probation is up in two weeks.

Want me to send him back?

I'll think about it.

Come on.

What is it?

It's me, telling you to get on your feet and follow me, all right?!

But fraud isn't just about making money, it isn't about crime,

it's about ruining people's lives.

Helen and Colin Fraser, both in their 70s,

put their entire life savings into a property scheme, investing in Spain.

But there was no property.

They lost everything and then they...

then they took their own lives.

It's a fraud that has ripped off British pensioners

to the tune of 30 million since 2009.

And the brains behind it all is this man... Daniel Lorca.

Lorca is invisible.

He has no address in the UK, we know almost nothing about him.

We don't even know what he looks like.

But I want to find him.

This is the man that is going to lead us to him.

His name is John Malik.

He is a lawyer and businessman

who offers a full client service to the super-rich.

Oligarchs, drug traffickers, Russian Mafia, you name it.

John Malik represents Lorca's "legitimate" business interests.

But, this morning, a warrant has been signed

to search his office and his home.

There will be two searches.

Alison will take the office team as temporary Case Controller

and I'll take his home.

But I want you to be very careful.

Remember, this is a man who consorts with major criminals.

Good trip, Mr Malik?

You know the best thing about Moscow, Smithson? - No, sir.

Getting the hell out!

Where is that damn porter?

Here, sir.

Come on, don't keep me waiting.

Home or office, sir?

Office.

They are heading for the office.

'That's good, Stefan. Stay close.'

We'd been away for the weekend.

Anywhere nice?

Wiltshire. We've got a house near Devizes.

So, do you know what was taken?

Money, about £300.

Computer and...

my wife's jewellery.

A diamond necklace, some earrings,

- her eternity ring. - Insured?

That's not the point, is it? It's more the sentimental value.

I'm sure.

What about the alarm?

Well... I was certain I'd put that on.

I must have been mistaken.

- Maybe he should get it checked. - What?

The alarm.

That's good, that, yeah, that will be a real help...

now that everything has been nicked!

Excuse me, have you got a minute

to talk about how we can stamp out child poverty in Africa?

No, have you got a minute to step out of the way?

But w-we're raising money for disadvantaged children...

I've already got one, thanks.

I'm sorry, mate.

Our Child believes that every child on the planet

has a right to laughter and happiness.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, we ask you to welcome

its founder and director,

Lisa Douglas.

Ladies and gentlemen,

ten years ago, I made a promise

that I would never show the picture of an unhappy boy or girl

and, with your help and with the money we raise tonight,

that is a promise that I mean to keep.

- Was that all right? - I think it's perfect.

Level?

Fine, Mrs Douglas.

So, I'm speaking for five minutes?

It's plenty, Wendy, we've heard it all before!

So, five minutes, then we hand over to the band,

they play their first set,

then we introduce the silent auction and serve the first course.

People want to hear you too, Lisa.

I'll play the room. Which is my table?

Number three, over here.

You're sitting between the Minister and the Archbishop.

Mm! Sounds like a rude joke!

So, where's Michael?

He's here.

He was here a minute ago.

I can't wait any longer, I'm going to the police.

Look, Michael, why are you bringing this to me now?

You're the chair of trustees, Paul, you're responsible.

Look, I'm not doubting your allegations.

There is clearly an irregularity in the Our Child accounts,

but maybe you should consider the question of timing.

What do you mean?

Tonight is the gala, it's the biggest night of the year for Lisa.

I know, I've just come from there.

Then why raise this now?

I raised this a week ago, you've done nothing.

Look, what exactly are you asking me to do, Michael?

Investigate my own wife?

Yes.

I think that's exactly what I'm asking you to do.

Look, give me a few more days. Is that too much to ask?

Let's get this gala out of the way and then we can take look at it.
