Hello? Sarge?
How do?
So I need you to authorise
the recovery of a vehicle for me and Gorkem,
and then send another vehicle to come pick us up.
Really? Why? What's happened?
So, right... So you know you said not to park right next to the flats,
and we weren't going to, obviously... But you did.
Well, it was either that or parking half a mile off
and frogmarching these two halfway across Sowerby Bridge.
And we wouldn't want you to wear your little legs out.
So we've... No.
So we've gone in, we've arrested him,
we're only in there three minutes, then... we've come outside...
I take it we're talking about the phantom fridge-thrower again.
It's a microwave this time.
Oh! He's diversifying.
Any available units,
is anyone in the vicinity of Baitings Dam? Hang on, Shaf.
I'm up that way, Control.
Is that you, Mrs Cawood?
It is! How's yourself, Mr Robertshaw?
I'm very fair, thanks, Mrs Cawood.
Now, I've got a report in from some...
I think they're, like, Yorkshire Water people.
They've found some bones. Oh, fair enough.
They've been draining the reservoir for maintenance
and a skeleton's popped up, apparently.
On my way.
Six minutes.
Right, Shaf.
I'll authorise your recovery vehicle,
but you'll have to sort it out with Control
about getting picked up.
Or you could speak to Inspector Taylor
and get him to sort you out.
I'm sure he'll be even more amused and delighted about it than I am.
Turned out nice again.
That's it there.
Is it a sheep?
I think it's an alien life-form.
We get a good few sightings of 'em round here.
What, sheep?
No, aliens.
9675 to Control.
It's human remains.
Copy that, 9675. We'll get the on-call SIO down
and send a log across to CSI.
Catherine. Sir.
What do you know?
Torso. Skeleton.
Head, no hands.
Nothing below the waist.
I think he's been there seven and a half, eight years.
Oh, really? Well, we'll let the Home Office pathologist
decide that, shall we?
If you like, sir. As you wish.
Heard you're retiring this year.
Yeah.
Seven months, one week, three days.
Teeth intact? Mm?
Oh, er, yeah.
And he's got a metal plate on the right clavicle,
very similar to me own, except mine's on the left.
What are you doing with a metal plate, Catherine?
Oh, it's a long story, sir, from a distant altercation.
His is newer than mine.
Oh, you've decided it's a he, have you?
What's his favourite sandwich?
I shouldn't think we'll have too much trouble
identifying him, her, whoever - if there's teeth.
You won't have any trouble at all, sir.
It's Gary Gackowski.
He fell off a third-floor balcony
down at Upshaw House in Elland
about nine, ten years ago,
when he was off his head on M-CAT.
Shattered his collarbone.
And I'd recognise those teeth anywhere.
I nicked him once for a public order offence and he bit me.
Went missing about 18 months later.
That was seven and a half, eight years since.
People used to say he'd upset someone he shouldn't have
and been buried in concrete underpants up at Scammonden,
but happen they were wrong, eh?
This is Baitings.
You might find his legs are in that blue thing over there.
I'll leave it with you.
Twats.
Trouble Town by Jake Bugg
Tommy, lad, you've got visitors.
Tommy Lee Royce?
How do? We're from H-Met.
We're arresting you on suspicion of the murder
of Gary James Gackowski on or around April 2014.
For the tape,
I'm showing Tommy a photo of the deceased.
Do you recognise him? No.
No. Can you tell me if you were involved
in the murder of this man? I wasn't.
Can you cast your mind back eight years
and tell me if you know or knew of anyone
who was involved in the murder of this man?
I don't.
Have you ever talked to anyone about any involvement
you may have had in the death of this man?
No.
Do you know a lad called Nazam Miraf?
He's on the same floor as me at Sheffield.
How would you respond, Tommy, if I told you
that Naz - Nazam -
has told us that you told him
that you were involved in the murder of
"that lad they found buried in concrete
"in that dam up Ripponden"?
Why would I be telling him owt?
What would your reaction be, Tommy, if I told you
that he told us certain things
that were done to this lad, to this Gary,
and that he says you told him
and they were never made known to the public?
I'd say happen it's him you need to be chatting to, not me.
Except he was inside when Gary disappeared.
Well, then he's mixing me up with somebody else, then.
Either that or he's making stuff up.
Doing a bit of grassing, get himself a text
and a few privileges, eh?
This way.
Have you had something to eat?
Yeah, I've had a sandwich and a wee-wee.
Do you want to sit?
They've made further disclosures.
And what they're saying now
is that as well as this Nazam Miraf,
you also told the prison chaplain three months ago,
before the body was found, that you were there
when this Gackowski lad was murdered
and that you helped dispose of his body in the reservoir.
No comment.
Naz, as you say, might be hoping for some privileges,
but for this chaplain to tell us the same tale,
the exact same tale...
That's what's ringing alarm bells for us, Tommy.
Yeah, well, they're colluding, aren't they?
Come on, wakey-wakey.
Yes, but why? Why would they do that?
I don't know. No comment.
Because they don't like me.
I mean, apart from the fact that, as we've established,
they don't even know each other.
Hmm?
Naz has never spoken to this prison chaplain in question,
he's never once met him.
So why would this chaplain,
a bloke who you've told us is a friend of yours,
a good friend, why is he coming to us
with almost exactly the same tale, hmm?
Unless it's true?
Have you ever worn a St Christopher, Tommy?
A St Christopher.
A necklace with, like, a St Christopher on it.
No. You have.
Cast your mind back.
Last time you were in prison, when you went down in 2006,
you were wearing a St Christopher.
It was logged in your property. Do you remember?
Hold up. It's OK.
What, 16 years ago?
No, I don't.
It was returned to you when you left in 2014.
Can you describe it for me? I don't...
Was it gold or silver or...? Er... Can you tell me what happened to it?
No. Did you lose it? I don't know owt about it.
But you did have it. If that's what you're telling me.
Do you recognise...
this St Christopher? That's not been disclosed. Shut up.
Are you all right, Tommy?
You seem to have become very interested
when I've shown you the St Christopher.
Do you recognise it?
No.
How would you react, Tommy,
if I told you that this St Christopher
was found in the concrete
that was used to weigh down Gary Gackowski's body? You're lying.
Is it yours, Tommy?
You planted it. No, we didn't.
We know it's yours, Tommy.
This is the log taken in the prison in 2006.
It describes a silver-coloured St Christopher pendant
with a V-shaped cut at five o'clock.
We know you were present, Tommy,
when Gary Gackowski went into that concrete.
Gackowski was shot with a 9mm Glock,
also recovered from the reservoir.
Ballistics have told us it's the same weapon
as was used to shoot Ashley Cowgill two months later,
in June 2014. Oh, aye?
Look, whoever Royce was working for must have decided
the gun was good for another job, so they've kept it,
