Disturbance at number 17, Hadley Road.
I want you.
Get in bed with me.
Ssh.
Have arrived at number 17, Hadley Road.

Aw, they want to play.
Front or back? Er I'm happy where I am.
Come on, folks, open up.
Come on, open up.
Police.
Hello? Open up! Hello? Police.
Hello.
Hello? You all right there, mate? Are you? Er Do you want to drop that bat? Don't think so.
Get up! Get up! Bang! What you doing? Get off him, leave him alone.
Get out! Out! You animals! Get off him! Go, go, go, go.
Get out! Get up, pig! Start crawling or get up! Sav.
Sav Come on, little piggy, little piggy.
You keep knocking, but you can't get in.
Andy! Andy! Andy! Move, you pigs.
Go on! Go! Go! Andy! Lima 1.
This is Alpha 21.
Ambulance needed to Hadley Road.
Officer attacked and hurt, need it quickly! How's he doing? Not good.
He's gone for a scan.
Head, body.
They kicked the shit out of him.
Have we got a name? Whose house was it? House was rented.
Where were you when it happened? I mean, what did you see? Are you up to going through it? Who made the call? The 999? It was a woman, a neighbour.
Genuine? Why? Andy went in through the front door and they were waiting for him.
They locked him in and locked me out.
A set-up? The call was genuine.
We've got a name, address and phone number.
I asked him what he wanted, front or back.
Heads or tails, that's it.
His stuff's all over the house, the floor.
- His baton, his radio.
- We'll get it back.
- I'll get it back.
- No, we'll get it back.
You get yourself home.
Are you up to that? - Yeah.
- You don't want a ride? He ripped his number off.
We'll talk properly tomorrow and you will talk.
Your cot-death was exactly that, by the way - a cot-death.
Post-mortem confirmed it.
Good.
I suppose.
Hiya.
I was one of the first coppers, I came to your house.
Yeah.
Mind if I? I haven't said how sorry I am for you and David.
Where is he? Bathroom.
David? Are you in there, David? - David? - Yeah.
Planning on coming out soon? Your mum's outside.
She's getting worried about you.
She's not me mum.
She's someone who me dad shags.
Do you see your mum? No.
OK, so she's not your mum, but she is worried about you, and she cares about you.
You've both been through a lot, you're both going through a lot.
I might be wrong but I think you need each other.
She is worried about you.
I heard you the first time.
Shall we go and see her, eh? I was good at making him laugh.
Stan? Yeah.
I didn't do nothing.
I know.
She really needs you, David.
Hey, Dad.
Awake, are you? You're early.
Yeah.
Andy took a bit of a pounding, he's in a pretty bad way.
Hospital.
I'm fine.
- Are you sure? - Yeah.
The good guys came second, but I'm fine.
Want me to read a bit? Ah, later.
- Tea? Toast? - Later, thanks.
You know, the trouble with you being a copper is you get to see too much shite.
I know.
Life's good.
People are good.
It was a bad day, that's all, Dad.
Well, more than a bad day.
Bad day doesn't quite cover it.
What do you want? I think you're nicked.
Don't you? No.
On the floor.
I'll tell you what's going to happen here.
Either you're going to grow a pair of balls and shoot me which you won't or I'm going to take that gun, shove it up your arse and pull the trigger.
Cos I can't let you go.
I don't want to let you go.
What's it to be, kid? Cos I am not in the fucking mood for this.
You haven't got the balls! - On the floor, now.
- No.
I'm not sure if I've fucked up, mate.
I'm not sorry.
I'm not sorry he's gone.
The opposite.
It's all sorted.
He won't be mouthin' off about kickin' a copper.
Sorry? Sorry, I thought you said something.
No.
Just talking to Andy.
Can he hear me, do you think? You know, I've no idea.
They say familiar voices and sounds can help.
There's certainly no harm in it, everyone does it.
No-one can tell me he didn't deserve it.
He deserved it.
He deserved it, didn't he? - Constable Rocksavage? - Yeah.
DC Frainey? Liam.
Sav.
What time does your shift start? Two.
If they'll have me.
- Head wrecked? - Hope not.
Jump in.
Any idea why he might have been shot? - Execution or? - Not sure, not yet.
One round was fired and it did the job.
If it's a gang shooting, they usually go mad, you know, make sure.
The poor SOCO shit himself.
Turns up to take a few prints and ends up tripping over a body.
Should really have been a bobby on the door all night.
No-one available.
Have we got an ID on the body? His name's Noel Finch.
Have you heard of him? No, can't say I have.
Meat-head, apparently.
He runs the doors for a company called Palomino Security.
I've heard of them.
How's your mate? Not good.
Critical care.
Sedated.
Bastards.
Who's in charge of the investigation? DCI Costello.
He's good, but he knows it.
It's good for me, though.
At least I'm working with someone who knows what they're doing.
The body's upstairs in the bedroom.
Stairs are to the right as we go in.
Keep to the covered areas, yeah? You're sure you're all right to view the body? - We could use a photograph, if you want? - No, I'm fine.
Seen him before? Yeah.
Are you OK? Yeah.
I've seen him twice.
Once in a restaurant yesterday afternoon and once here last night.
- What restaurant was that? - The All American Diner.
Yesterday lunchtime.
Him and his mates were blitzed and making a nuisance of themselves.
You spoke to them? I asked them to leave, which they did.
I'll write it up.
So, er, whereabout in the house are we going to find your prints? Outside, front and back.
Inside, the kitchen, hallway and lounge.
You didn't come up here at all, no? No.
Oh, actually.
I was waiting for the ambulance, I thought was going to be sick.
I wasn't, but I came up looking for the bathroom.
OK.
Thanks.
Does the footprint belong to the killer? Well, to someone who was here after the shot was fired.
Any idea who? Yeah.
OK, that's it, you can go.
Have you got your bobby quota, for door-to-door? If you're thinking of volunteering, that's not a good idea.
That might cause me a problem in court.
Why's that? I don't know, but a barrister might.
Thank you.
Get back here as soon as you can.
Your Sarge mentioned an epaulette your mate's number.
Yeah.
Why, have you found it? Not that I'm aware but if we do, I'll get it back to you.
Nice one.
Kyle Smart.
Smart by name, thick by nature.
Was released from prison just nine days ago and already we've got a spike in thefts from vehicles.
Alpha 21, he likes working your area, keep an eye out.
If you see him, even if he's walking the dog, stop him, warn him.
Next is a missing persons.
David Fenner, 13 years of age, walked out of his home early hours of this morning, not been seen, not made any contact since.
Mariners Quay David Fenner, - brother of the cot death? - That's him.
So he's going to be distressed, to say the least.
- What about his father? - David doesn't know where he is.
I don't know where he is.
- Can I look in his room? - If you want.
Well, was it useful? What were you hoping to find? I've no idea.
I only asked.
No, you didn't only ask.
You questioned.
And take the chip off your shoulder.
I haven't got a chip on my shoulder.
You've got your nose in the air.
Andy tried to talk to you and you shot him down.
I've no idea what I was looking for.
I was just hoping to find something.
He's going on a train, going somewhere, anywhere but home.
BMW X5, registration Yankee Papa Zero Five, Hotel Zulu Zulu.
Over.
Anything? CD, Sat nav's still there.
Not a very successful robbery.
He saw us, we disturbed him.
Check under the car.
Take a look under the car.
See anything? White male, aged 17 to 21.
Amanda, meet Kyle Smart.
Kyle, this is Amanda.
All right.
You know what, Kyle.
There's 101 better things I could be doing.
There's a 101 better things you could be doing.
Then let me go.
But what we all have to do is waste our time taking you backwards and forwards to the cell.
I don't know why you don't just stop.
It's not as if you're any good at it.
If I'm wasting your time, let me go.
I'm just trying to make a living.
Then get a job.
It's people like me who are keeping you in a job.
Where's Andy? Hospital.
He took a beating.
- Bad? - Yeah.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Is the new girl fast-track, Sav? She's clever, if that's what you mean.
- Ambitious.
Determined.
- Nice tits.
- Hey, we'll have none of that, thank you.
- It was a compliment.
- Am I your first, Amanda? - Arrest.
No.
If I swear on me Ma's life to change, will you go out with me? - No.
- Why not? Crime prevention.
One for you, when you're ready, John.
- Liam.
- Sav.
Do you like what you see, then? Have you got a problem? Mr Rose, shut your mouth.
What, so I can't I speak? Or is that against the law as well? As well as what? - Kickin' the shit out of a copper? - Sav, don't.
What copper was that? Did I enjoy it? Watch yourself, shit-for-brains.
Whoa.
Slander and a threat.
- This might be my lucky night.
- Mr Rose.
He started it.
Alpha 21, report location.
Need to see you, Sav.
Sav?' "He lay as we had left him, on his back, "with his eyes open and one arm stretched out.
"Draw down the blind Jim," whispered my mother, "they might come and watch outside.
"'And now," said she, when I had done so.
"We have to get the key off that "and who's to touch it, I should like to know! "And she gave a kind of sob as she said the words.
"I went down on my knees at once.
"On the floor, close to his hand, "there was a little round of paper, "blackened on the one side.
"I could not doubt that this was the Black Spot.
" The curse.
Have you had enough? Enough for tonight.
Are you OK? - I want my life back.
- Do you? He's admitted to finding Finch, dead.
He found him dead when? Minutes after he was shot.
