1 EXT. HEBDEN BRIDGE. DAY 15. 10.30 1
TOMMY steps off the bus in Hebden Bridge. He’s pale, and he’s
in pain, but he keeps moving. He crosses the road into the
main part of the little town. Despite what we know about him,
to anyone in the street he doesn’t look out of place, huddled
up, head down, hands in pockets in the cold winter weather
with his glasses and his beard and his copy of War and Peace
and his lap-top bag.
CUT TO:
2 EXT. CHEMIST SHOP, HEBDEN BRIDGE. DAY 15. 10.35 2
TOMMY leaves a chemist shop with a couple of packets of
painkillers. He walks along. In another shop window, he sees
an A5 West Yorkshire Police WANTED poster ‘Have you seen this
man?’ and a photo of the arrogant, clean-shaven yob TOMMY was
four weeks ago and a WANTED poster for LEWIS too. He goes
round a quiet corner, rips open one of the packets of
painkillers, and pops four of the pills into his hand, throws
them back into his mouth and swallows them.

CATHERINE and CLARE pull up in their clapped out car.
(CATHERINE still can’t drive because of the op, and because
her hand’s still in plaster). They both look a bit
thoughtful.
CLARE:
I’ll wait in the car.
CATHERINE:
Yeah.
CATHERINE gathers her resources, gets out of the car and
heads towards the building. (CATHERINE’s used to delivering
bad news in the course of her work, but this is so much more
personal).

JUSTINE:
Nevison? Sorry to disturb, but I
thought you’d want to know.
Sergeant Cawood’s here, she’s

CATHERINE’s loitering by JUSTINE’s desk as exhuberant NEV
emerges from his office
NEVISON:

CATHERINE:
Hello. Sorry - you’re busy.
NEVISON:

CATHERINE:

NEVISON:

(he looks back into his
office)
Can we do this later, fellas?

for them to vacate his
office, and turns back to
CATHERINE)
How are you?
CATHERINE:

arm)
I’m
She doesn’t know what she is. All over the place.
NEVISON:
We were wanting to come and see

Sure.
NEVISON:
Would you like some tea? Or - ?
CATHERINE:
Tea, yes.

Thank you.
CATHERINE’s thinking that NEVISON’s going to need it more
than she does. They head into NEV’s office...

CATHERINE:
You’re not paying my mortgage off,

NEVISON:
You can’t begin to understand how
much pleasure it’d give me and
Helen to be able to do something
like that.
CATHERINE:
She was joking.
NEVISON:
I don’t think she was.
