JAMES (on phone): I presume you've seen the news about the Hayley Reid case?
CUMMING: Previously on "Unforgotten"... JAMES (on phone): The police think she may have been our cleaner.
I told them we all stayed in the house (on phone): that night, eating with our families.
MEL: No, it wasn't "a pleasant evening."
Someone might have brought some coke.
Chris went completely nuts.
CASSIE: We now have four men, variously drugged up, possibly mentally unstable out somewhere in Middenham at exactly the same time as Hayley.

About what?
SUNNY: Well, we can discuss that when we meet.
We'd like you to be at Kings Lynn police station at 1:30, please.

JAKE: Guv.
And James Hollis finally came back about his car.
Turns out he was driving a black four-door BMW, with a tow bar.
Do you know if he had a trailer?
Yeah.
Interesting.
And all this, it feeds into a, a bigger question I think we need to ask now.
Because if what Melissa Hollis said is true, it means that not only did all four men lie to us, all four then appear to have colluded in that lie.
And at that point, I start to ask, why would they do that?
You think they're all involved, Boss?
I don't know, but I think it has to be one of our options, or maybe it's that one of them killed her and the other three covered up for him.
Anyway, let's let that percolate, and then we'll regroup once we've spoken to Mr. Carr.

I was set up, that was all.
The system out there was corrupt, I was set up.

Yes, I do.

Dr. Finch?
Yes.

I mean, to talk to, on the face of it, in public, you would think he was such a lovely man, wouldn't you?
Kind and gentle and good.
"A good man" was how people always described him in our village.
But behind closed doors, he's the most manipulative, calculating man I've ever met, and he made my life a complete misery.
(clicking pen) How so?
For the 13 years that we were married, he tried to control every single aspect of it.
He stopped me from working, he cut me off from my friends, stopped me going out at all by the end.

This felt like a very personal story.
Well, uh... the pain that the character of Annie goes through as she discovers her husband has been serially unfaithful was something I did feel I understood.
But what I wanted to try and explore, through his multiple liaisons, was what it was in the male psyche that needed this constant sexual validation.

You're just tired, it just makes everything seem worse.
(phone ringing distantly) Come on, then, let's do Chris Lowe.
Ah, he didn't turn up.
Right.
Did he call?
No.
Nothing, I left a message on his mobile, left it at work, nothing.
(knock on doorframe) Boss, you got two minutes?
Sure, yeah, what's up?
Um, I was doing a bit of a general dig on Hollis, following the emails.
Yep.
And I've found something I think we've all missed.

Um, so the way the fathers all spoke about the kids, kind of days out and bedtimes, I think we just assumed they were all little ones.
And three out of the four were-- Emma Finch was ten, her sister was eight, Maya Lowe was six.
But Eliot Hollis, turns out he was about to turn 16, and 16 with some issues.
Two arrests already for possession, one for drunk and disorderly, and this is a real stinger.
Um, one for stealing his dad's car, a month before the millennium.
Call the father back in now.

♪ ♪ (cameras clicking) On behalf of the Metropolitan Police, I wish to apologize to Mr. Carr and his family, and indeed to Hayley Reid's family, for any distress that has been caused by my mistake.
I wish to reiterate that no arrests have been made, no one has been charged with anything, and that Mr. Carr is just one of many people who are helping us with our inquiries.
I would like to remind people that publication of these documents online is illegal, and we will take action against anyone who does so.
I would also remind members of the public that we will be seeking prosecution for any online activity that seeks to incite violence against Mr. Carr.
And, lastly, I would urge whoever found this document to take it to the nearest police station and hand it in as soon as possible.
Thank you.
