INHALES DEEPLY, SIGHS
GLENN: Hey, you. Look,
I'm sorry I had to run.
We've got a fatality at
work, and it's just me.
Roy has finally decided
to take a weekend off.
ARI SIGHS 'I'm glad.
'Cleo needs him around.' Yeah.
So, you're on lates again?
Yep. SIGHS
Dreading it.
Down to two nurses
on a ward of 20.
'That's breaking the
safe ratio right there.'
Er, look, Ari, sorry.
I've gotta go, OK?
All right. See you
in the morning. Bye.
Unidentified male,
approximately 20, 30 years old.
Stripped naked and washed
up, inside that barrel.
There's no ID. So,
cause of death?
Suspected broken neck.
Dead a couple of days.
But the plastic and the drum
have kept him reasonably intact,
away from predators.
But my guess is the gasses
from the body blew the lid.
Another thing, I
can smell bleach.
Check out his eyelashes...
and his fingers.
All right. Let's get some lab
work on the body and the barrel.
And, er, let's find
out who supplied this.
Well done. Paula.
Leanna.
Carter.
Everybody into the van.
Laura.
You too. Let's move.
Don't worry, just
stay close to me.
What's wrong with you?
Move. Not you.

special for you.
Move.
For God's sakes, Poppy,
can you make sure the Champagne's

Right, look, I've gotta go.
Where is he? I've
made pancakes.
I didn't think he
was going with you.

I've got no time for
pancakes. Morning, sweetheart.

Morris says that Kipp
Kavinda is famously loaded.
Drives his Aston Martin
past the fans at every game.
So, if someone tries and fails to

what do they do next?
Well, plan B.
They snatch the child of one
of the richest shareholders.
Who are those men?
We don't know yet.
We're working on it.
Digital forensics got

He doesn't bring mates home.
So, Frank was supposed to go

I keep going out there and

You told them two

They will pay. Yeah.
The female who made the call
to the stadium was Albanian.
Both her calls came
from burner phones -
both dead now.
Forensic voice analysis
has also examined the call
for any background noise.
They've said that
there is zero evidence
that the caller was
inside the stadium.
So that means that the
caller and the b*mber
were two different females.
So, we have our
caller, our b*mber,
our unidentified body
from the beach...
who, judging by
signs of bleaching,
was somehow involved
in making of that b*mb.
Yeah. Lab report's confirmed
analysis of the b*mb's detonator
contained TATP consistent
with chemical traces
found on our unknown male.
Any ID? No mispers
matching his description.
DNA's not on the database.
Nothing on the prints. OK.
So, this is... ambitious stuff -
bombs, kidnapping.
It takes resources.
We need to find out how
these are connected.
Well, the Albanian community
can be tight-lipped,
but I'll check our intel.
And let's get a facial portrait
of our body from the beach
mocked up and circulating.
OK. Any more on how they might
have got the b*mb into the stadium?
Yeah, employee records are back,
so I'm cross-referencing
all casual staff.
They hired a couple of new
cleaners in the last month or so,
but I'm still waiting
on some details.
Also, look into deliveries
of peroxide or acetone.
TATP is notoriously unstable.
That b*mb did not travel far.
Excuse me. Have you
seen that person there?
Mm. Sure?
Excuse me, sir. You don't

Noel texted me...

to say he was staying over

Can I see the message?
We know from CCTV that Frank
and your son were taken
before that text was sent.
So, either the message was
sent by Noel, under duress,
or by his kidnappers.
Do you recognise the boy
Noel was with, Frank Kavinda?
No. No. No.
Noel's moved school recently.
Made new friends.
We haven't... We

I wanna see all his messages.
And let's put a rush
on his company records,
go through all his clients.
Anyone with the means of
orchestrating something like this.
FRANK BREATHES SHAKILY
What have you done with him?
Drink.
There is still no money.
What about the
boy? He'll be fine.
One of us should go back
before we're missed.
You crossed a line.
Going back is risky.
And staying out here is
risky. Are you stupid?
Go.
Burn the van while you're at it.
There's petrol in the transit.
We probably drove
for half an hour.
I was blindfolded at one point.
Couldn't see where we ended up.
Some kind of... barn.
They wore masks.
You didn't recognise
their voices?
Did they speak in any
kind of overseas accent?
It was all about Frank.
Whether Frank's dad
was going to pay up.
One of them was getting
more and more stressed.
Then... just lost it.
Hit me.
Is there anything
else you can remember?
TEARFULLY: Mum,
I can't. I know.
I know. You're fine now.
Look, this, now,
it's enough. Please.
We appreciate how
urgent this is,
but I think my son
really needs to rest.
Yeah, of course. Thank you.
Thank you.
BREATHES SHAKILY
SOBS SOFTLY
OK, so, Noel Ludlow was
found at Hob's d*ke - here.
And the message they sent to
Kipp arranging the meeting
pinged phone masts in two
areas - here and here.
PHONE RINGS
Triangulation on the ransom
texts sent to Kipp Kavinda
correlates roughly to
an area around here.
DS Bella Moy.
Well, there's your search site.
Somewhere in there is a
very scared 16-year-old boy.
Get satellite searches of all farms
and derelict barns in that area.
We need to narrow it down.
Oh, OK, OK, calm
down. Calm down.
The house is like hell.
We have to do things
to earn our keep...
..or families back
home are harmed.
They know where my mother lives.
We are all trapped.
Zenith told me that he'd
been given a job to do.
He refused to do it.
What job? I don't know.
Who asked him to do it?
We call him Baloz.
"Sea monster".
He's dead, isn't he?
Boss. I've got something.
OK, so, the satellite shows
two possible sites of interest
in the search radius -
one derelict barn,
one abandoned farm.
And get this, within
half a mile of both,
they found a burnt-out vehicle
- confirmed, black Vauxhall van.
Well, if they've ditched the
van, they'll need a back-up.
Search ANPR for vehicles travelling
in convoy with a black van.
We'll take the farm,
you get uniform out
to the other property.
If you just stand
over there for me.
LAURA SNIFFLES
OK.
Do you wanna go? Yeah.
Yeah.
'His name was Zenith Evangjeli,
fiance to Laura Kristo.'
Both live in this
modern sl*very set-up.
She says she doesn't
know our b*mber.
Do you believe her?
'Hm. Well, she's
petrified for sure.'
She told me Zenith was being forced
into a job that he didn't wanna do.
So, I'm thinking,
did Zenith refuse to plant the
b*mb, and it got him k*lled?
Well, if our b*mber
was under duress,
it might explain why she dropped
the gloves in the stadium.
But Laura says there's
someone at the very top.
They call him Baloz
- the sea monster.
PHONE BUZZES Hang on.
The search warrant for the sl*ve
house has just come through.
Take armed back-up.
Great.
Just heard from uniform.
Your barn's clear.
There's nothing there.
Is this helping?
I think it's just
re-traumatising him.
I don't want my son
here any longer.
I understand this is an ordeal,
but your son might
have vital information.
Our priority is to
prevent loss of life.

Got multiple Eastern

living undocumented.
And we found a

Residents also confirmed
that our b*mber lives at the

Any signs of b*mb-making?
We're tracking all acetone
and peroxide purchases,
but nothing has been
delivered to this address.
OK. Let's see if we can get a
photograph of Zenith from Laura.
Show it to chemical
suppliers, wholesalers.

If we can find where
they made the b*mb,
we may find Frank.
HE BREATHES HEAVILY

PHONE CHIMES
We've been going through
Kipp's portfolios.
Now, one particular account
that Kipp was working with
was called Merida Blue.
The same company owns the
worker's house Bella raided.
So Baloz could be behind
Merida Blue? Yeah.
And Kipp Kavinda was investing
huge amounts of money for him?
Exactly. I mean, the question
is did Kipp do it knowingly?
Well, if Kipp was tangled
up in organised crime
and lost them a tonne of money,
it makes sense that Baloz
was behind the b*mb threat
and then had Frank kidnapped.
We need to review
Kipp's communication.
Anything that gets us...
PHONE BUZZES
..closer to Baloz.
KNOCK AT DOOR You
need to see this.
We just received partial
images of two cleaners
who worked at the stadium a
few days before the b*mb scare.
Both had started recently.
We sharpened up the images,
and look here. It's Laura.
Zenith's fiancee.
Bring her in.
I thought it was drugs.
Not part of a b*mb.
I swear. I didn't look inside.
I never look inside.
And my work makes it possible
for some of the older people
to stay in the house.
It feeds them. Keeps them safe.
I cannot ask questions.
Ever.
Zenith made a part of the
b*mb called TATP somewhere.
Was it out of town? Was it
somewhere he'd been before?
It wasn't far.
In Brighton, I think.
When he came home...
..his eyelashes were...
Laura, when you worked at
the stadium as a cleaner,
were you ever told to
bring peroxide home?
Who are these people?
We know they're brother and sister.
We know they lived at the house.
We need their real names.
That's Dren and Kona Dashvilli.
Where are they now, Laura?
Come on.
All I know is Kona is gone
since the day of the b*mb.
No-one has seen him.
And Dren...
Baloz's people... they took her.
We suspect that Baloz might be
connected to the kidnap of two boys.
Do you know anything
about this, Laura?
You said Kona was missing.
Could he be involved?
What kidnap?
I don't know anything
about any kidnap.
Laura, a boy's life
is in danger here.
We need to know why these
two boys were taken.
Do you recognise them?
I know him.
That's Baloz's son.
What are you doing?
Joseph? We're getting
out of Brighton.
All of us.
I need you to be ready.
You're out of your
mind, coming here.
I've been trying to call you. I
dumped my phone after the b*mb.
Obviously. We agreed no contact.
Where is he? Where
the hell is my son?
I don't have your son.
I've got the police
crawling all over me.
I am two million
down thanks to you,
and there is serious
dissent in my ranks.
No, you're lying. You
lie about everything.
You told me the
b*mb would be fake.
It was never gonna be fake!
You told me that b*mb
would pay me back.
"Club's got more money
than sense," you said.
"They won't risk the lives
of their fans," you said.
Look, I am sorry they didn't pay
up. I tried everything. But...
Please, just... just
give me back my son.
Joseph, please,
tell me where he is.
That b*mb was your last hope.
And it failed.
If you don't have my money...
..it's over for you.
Now get out of my face, or I
swear to God I will end you.
So, we've been reviewing all
of his call logs and movements,
and look at this.
I've got Kipp on his phone
during the match on CCTV here.
On his call logs, he made
calls at 1:25 and 1:55.
We couldn't find any hints of
threats or suspicious communication
on any of his
emails or messages.
He's got a second phone.
And one guess who
he was talking to.
He's been playing
us this whole time?
ROY EXHALES You take
Ludlow. I'll take Kipp.
KNOCK AT DOOR,
APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS
We have a warrant for
your husband's arrest.
Joseph isn't here.
Well, we're gonna have
to search the property.
Please. Haven't we
been through enough?
We're not asking
for your permission.
I owe Joseph Ludlow £2 million.
At first, I... I thought he was a
property developer, but I was wrong.
You were investing
funds for a criminal
whose enterprise was
built on modern sl*very.
I had no idea how
corrupt he was.
But then my whole portfolio
collapsed, including his money.
I liquidated everything, but...
..it wasn't enough
to pay him back.
And when he found out
his funds were gone,
and I had no way
to get them back...
..he threatened my family.
So Ludlow...
blackmailed your club,
planted the b*mb in order to
extort the money he was owed,
is that correct?
He had help.
From the inside.
You knew about the b*mb?
HE GRUNTS
We planned it together.
I was... I was convinced
the club would pay up, OK?
And you took our son
into that stadium?
He told me the device
would be fake. I-I...
I would never have taken
Frank to the stadium
if I thought it was real.
The phone call I got at 2:21
was when I realised it was.
I had no idea how
dangerous he is.
Why did he kidnap Frank if
he knew you had no money?
I don't know. But he...
he mentioned something
about a revolt in his ranks.
I'm telling you
this. If that man...
..feels wronged by anyone, he
is capable of terrible things.
And I know he has Frank, so...
BREATHES DEEPLY
..please, find our son.
Please, there...
there's... Zara, I...
I-I know this is
all my fault but...
Zara? Mr Kavinda.
You do not leave this house.
There is an officer
stationed outside.
Any more communication
from Joseph Ludlow,
I want to know about
it, you understand?
You're facing multiple charges
already. Don't make it worse.
HE BREATHES HEAVILY
We searched the house.
Joseph Ludlow's gone.
But I've put out an all ports
and alerts on all his vehicles.
The b*mb threat and the
kidnap are not connected
in the way that we
thought they were.
Ludlow knew that Kipp
Kavinda was skint,
so taking Frank would
have made no sense.
I don't think the kidnap
was part of his plan.
But someone tipped off the
kidnappers at the barn.
It's like they knew
that we were coming.
That had to have been Ludlow.
He was edgy at the barn, certainly.
He couldn't wait to get away.
But what if that was because he
realised that it was his property,
and the kidnap
was an inside job?
Ludlow told Kipp there
was dissent in the ranks.
That his men had made mistakes.
So, if Ludlow's son was taken
and beaten by his own men,
what does he do next?
Be out for revenge.
I want every property
that Joseph Ludlow owns
turned upside down.
Personal effects, everything...
We need to find his men
and Frank before he does.
You've got some
explaining to do.
Why's my son ended up
with stitches on his face?
How did he get dragged into this?
I-I-I don't know, that was Kona.
I didn't realise Noel
knew Kavinda's son.
It was Kona that
shoved him in the car.
He's-He's crazy. He lost it.
He dragged him out of
the barn and beat him.
I... I said you
would come after him.
The worker's house
has been raided.
Dren's face is everywhere,
and that barrel should have been
on its way to Bruges by now.
I'm assuming that was Kona's
other little act of rebellion.
I think so. I don't
know, I don't know.
Please. Boss, I...
Where's he taking
Kipp Kavinda's boy?
They were still at
the barn when I left.
Try again. I was just there.
The police have raided it.
Of all places you use, you
use a barn that I used to own?
I'm sorry, boss.
I-I-I'm really... I...
All right. All
right, shut up. Yeah.
Here's what's gonna
happen, right?
You're gonna help me find
that little sh*t Kona.
Nobody messes with my kid
and gets away with it.
I'll do anything, boss. Give me
your phone you've been using.
You help me clear
up this mess...
..you might just save yourself.
Why are you doing this?
Stop asking questions.

photograph of Frank.
The message was sent to Kipp
from the same phone as
the previous messages,
but without the request
for money this time.
It's a threat to
life. It's revenge.
Ludlow's caught up
with the kidnappers.
Yeah. And now he's
got Frank Kavinda.
Where are we with triangulation?
The signal's been bouncing
between the towers.
If Ludlow's got that phone,
he's continuously on the move.
We're trying to pinpoint it. You
were right about the convoy, boss.
So, we've trawled all
traffic camera footage
of the black van
before it was torched.
Every time we see it on the night
before the kidnap, it's travelling
near a silver transit consistent
with the tyre prints at the farm.
It's stolen plates. There's
your back-up vehicle.
We need to track it
down. Find Frank.
