Band of Gold (1995–1997): Season 1, Episode 2 - Caught - full transcript

I'll be back Friday.

Make sure you have that
money, or else I'll take what I want.

And I mean what I want.

Don't just walk away!

Go on! Hit me in
front of your daughter.

Don't, daddy!

I have to find £180.

Let your old man worry about it.

I want to sort this out meself.

What's going on? She
wants to work the Lane.

As if I didn't know!



Nobody works this Lane
without my permission.

You want to work
the Lane, you ask me.

I'm asking.

What if he tries to kiss me?

Tell him that's for your
boyfriend, or it'll cost him £30.

'Till this, till that, till your bones
are banging and no-one's there.'

what's this for? Where's
your friend gone?

I'll never hit you
again. I swear to god.

You said that the last time.

I mean it this time.

I don't want you back.

I'd like to help you, love.

And how are you
going to do that?

Depends what you want.



You smile, baby, and
them cars will stop for you.

I'm too worried watching
out for them stupid cows.

I'll get that sorted.

I really want to
get out of the car.

Open the door! Please!

She said she'd come back
for it. What am I going to do?

I know who did it. I bet
I know who killed Gina.

Bastards!

I'll have you an' all. Get off!

Is she in? I didn't do it.

That's what they all
say. Get scrubbing.

How's Carol these
days? Well, look who it is!

Keeping busy? Girl's
got her fines to pay.

Your choice.

Knock at door

we're in the kitchen.

This is DC Jameson.

Having trouble
with the neighbours?

Nothing changes.

Do you know her?

Yeah. Seen her on the news.

She's the poor bitch that
were murdered last night.

What can you tell me about this?

It's all right.

It'll be all right.

It's not though, is it?

Pull yourself together, Joyce.

What are you crying for, Nanna?

What's the matter?

Nothing, love, I've just
got something in me eye.

Joanna's next door. Can
you look after them for a bit?

How long?

Just until we can
get things sorted.

Why can't he look after them?

I'm having 'em,
so shut your mouth!

My mum's still at work.

Morning and evening shifts
available, Monday to Friday.

Overalls and cleaning
materials supplied. Two pounds...

No, you'd better
just forget that.

Knock at door yes? Who is it?

It's Joyce, mr Ferguson.

Just put the telephone number.

Yes, Joyce, what
can I do for you?

I'm going to have
to have time off.

Why's that? Because
I've got to look after me...

..Grandchildren.

Can I get you something?

Lynette! Get yourself in here.

He found me order
form in her bag.

What did you tell him? Truth.

She were flogging
make-up to pay off her loan.

He didn't suspect owt?

Dunno. I told him her girl
went to t'same school as Emma.

He looks just t'same. He
must've gone up in the world.

Look at that silly little bitch!

That's extra, then.
Come on, you.

Get off! What are you doing?
Do you want to end up dead?

One forty.

Coppers were in
asking about Gina.

What did you say?

Never clapped eyes on her.

Seen that new,
curly-haired bloke?

Who do you mean?

Don't matter, forget it.

£2.50 - half an hour,
Monday to Saturday.

Bloody hell, it used to be £2!

There's the laundry, and
wear and tear on me bed!

Take it or leave it. I'm not
running a frigging charity!

Des won't buy that.

So don't tell him.
Just put your prices up.

What to?

£10 for a hand job, twenty for a
straight jump, owt else is extra.

You'll be safe in my place.

It's warm and it's clean.

Don't go with them for a fiver. It's
degrading, and you're doing us down.

And there ain't
much call for stiffs

shut up, you're
putting me off me drink!

Was she really hustling?

For a week, but t'coppers
think she was straight

cos we want him caught.

If she'd used my place, it
would never have happened.

(Sobbing)

Present for you.

He's in.

Jesus Christ!

It's that weirdo I
were telling you about.

He doesn't look weird.

He give me thirty quid for nowt.

So?

So that's not normal.

He's got eyes like a rat. He
never stopped looking at Gina.

What are you doing?

Going to talk to him, stupid.

She's mad.

You're back, then? Yeah.

That's nice. Work around here?

Sort of. What do you do?

Frozen chickens.

Very nice.

So how much this time?

You what?

Money. How much do you want?

Are you rich?

Yeah.

A lot, then.

I've been looking for you.

Come on. She's having a drink.

Shut your face, bitch!

I'll be outside.

He'll kill me now. Why?
You haven't done anything.

I shouldn't be here.

Worried what we might tell you?

He doesn't like
me going into pubs.

Pity for him.

I'm underage.

You should be a comedian!

He cares about me.

He cares about your
money, you soft bitch.

Are you going to be all right?

Yeah.

I've got 23 people
working for me.

Where are you going?

Is she your friend?

None of your business.

What if she is, anyway?

No reason, just asking.

Her ponce is outside.

He looks after her,
watches her all the time.

How about a hundred quid?

It's not about money,
this is about loyalty.

I put in a lot of time looking
after you and worrying about you!

Honest, babe.

Has anything ever happened to
you while you've been with me?

No.

Well, then.

They're just trying
to frighten you.

You can earn, and they want
part of it, cos they're greedy bitches.

They have to use someone's
pad cos they're ugly.

But you, you can work anywhere.

So why give them your money?

They were just worried
about me, that's all.

You'd believe anything, you.

Nothing's going to happen
to you, cos I won't let it.

Here y'are - a
little lifter for you.

And just you remember...

..I'll be out there
watching you.

Go on. Get lost.

'So what did you say to
him?' 'I'd think about it.'

he's bad, I can smell him.

He makes me skin crawl, and
he's got scratches on his hands.

Yeah, but £100!

I know. I'll see you later.

Right, be careful. And you.

What do you think you're doing?

Waiting for you.

Jesus!

Did I frighten you?

What do you want?

150.

Piss off, or I'll scream.

175! We could drive somewhere.

Sod off!

200.

Quid?

Quid.

I'm not getting in no car.

£200! He must be cracked.

You're not gonna
get it, are you?

I bloody am.

If it is him, he's just saying
that to get you to go there.

They found her on
the moor, not in a hotel.

He might have killed her in the
hotel and dumped her on the moor.

You're sticking your
neck on the line for £200.

They're burying her today.

It's only me, dad!

Hello, love.

Hi. We can't stop, we've got to go
somewhere. Bob's waiting downstairs.

Where you going?

Never you mind, go turn
telly on, Sarah. Go on.

I've got you one
of them pasties.

Have you? I thought I'd
make you some gravy.

I got you a punter,
and George is paying.

George? That's right.

Maybe we could try them
meals on wheels again.

Just for a couple
of days a week.

It'd give me a break, cos things
are a bit difficult for me at the minute

Sarah, get your granddad
the salt from t'kitchen.

No, I'm drawing.

Go on, do as you're told.

That's a good girl.

It's just...

I've got to look after the kids.

Cos, well...

Because...

..We've lost our Gina.

I can't find it.

Try a bit harder. It
might be under t'paper.

She's...

She's been...

Something awful's
happened to her, dad.

I've got this.

That's a funny looking salt pot!

Thank you, Gina.

No, dad, this isn't Gina.

This is our Sarah.
Our Gina's middle one.

You just look like
your mummy, eh?

Granddad's crying, Nanna.

Oh, dad.

Good afternoon.
Councillor baker.

What do you think about the new
leisure centre on winsford Lane?

You have seen it, haven't you?

Why don't you come in?
That's very kind of you.

I was wondering what sort of
facilities you were hoping for.

Why don't we go
straight upstairs?

That's very kind.

We've a swimming pool, with
a sauna and a steam room.

We've got two badminton
courts and a gymnasium.

And in phase two we're going to
have a health food shop with a dietician.

Where's Nanna going?

She won't be long.
Eat your chocolate.

Fifteen quid, right?

Twenty. I should get something.

Ask George, he's the one
who's getting the contract.

Time to finish him off.

Give him one from me, will you?

I'll be 5 minutes.
Bring me washing in.

We are here for
two reasons today.

Firstly, to say goodbye to Gina.

And secondly, to
thank god for her life.

Gina was blessed
with a good family.

Her mother Joyce who
loved and nurtured her.

'I need you to
look after the kids.'

her husband Steve who
she was with for 7 years...

'I'm better off without you.'
'Good, cos I'm gonna get a divorce.'

..and bore three children to.

Joanne, Sarah, and
8-month-old Michelle...

..Who brought her much happiness,
and who will comfort the family.

'The physical body may die, but
our feelings for Gina stay with us.'

'because those memories of
Gina laughing, crying, living...

..Are so vibrant, so acute...

..It hurts to remember.'

but "blessed are they that
mourn, for they shall be comforted."

So when we think
about Gina, let it hurt.

Because in that hurt we remember
her love, her touch, her warmth.

She's alive in our hearts.

So close your eyes and bring Gina
back before we say our last goodbye.

'We can earn a
fortune together.'

'i don't want a fortune, I
just want to pay me loan off.'

organ

I've been slung out there more
times than I've shaved me legs.

You sure this
Tommy will be there?

It's his job, course he is.

What ever happened
to lucky bags?

Lucky bags? Little bags
with sweets and a toy in

you remember 'em,
don't you, Carol?

No. I'm not that frigging old!

Shush! Hurry up.
Come on. Come on!

Over here.

Get on your hands and knees,
there's a camera round t'corner.

Come on!

That'll be me one day. What?

Her out there with
t'frock on, I'll be like her.

Oh, yeah. They'll open
doors for me an' all.

With an arse like that?

TV: "Police continue to investigate
the murder of Gina Dixon."

"At a press conference, dci
newall made a statement."

It's dead uncomfortable
this settee.

Shut up, I'm trying to listen.

What are you so interested for?

Her mother works for me.

"We're anxious to locate
a small black vanity case...

..Containing make-up samples
that she left her house with."

Bloody hell.

What's up?

It's awful, isn't it?

"Or ring 871423."

"That's an 0800
number. Thank you."

"Somebody out there
must've seen her."

"Or know something about
what happened to her."

You should have seen her
mother, she's in a right state.

I bet she is.

"If anybody did see her, or
thinks they might've seen her...

..Then, please...

..Please tell the police
so we can get him."

It's come at a very bad
time. I'm short-staffed as it is.

If I get that new tender for the
leisure centre I'll be up shit creek

"she had long, dark hair, and...

..And...

I told her I might not be
able to keep her job open.

She'll appreciate that.

"I can't understand why
this has happened to us."

Are you off, then?

Trying to get rid of me?

I want to watch the film.
It's got to be back tomorrow.

"She hardly ever went
out cos she had the kids."

See you next Thursday, then.

"Please help us, somebody."

"I'm sorry, I can't...

Christ!

Do you always
creep up on people?

I didn't think you'd come.

Why not?

I don't know.

What room are we in?

315. Third floor.

Have you got the money?

Yeah.

I'm off to t'toilet.

Do you want another drink?

Get a bottle.

He's here.

Opens every door.

I'll see you, right? Room 315.

Silly cow's doing business!
I'm givin' her thirty quid!

I knew summat would go wrong.

Yes, madam? Chief
inspector newall, please.

Can you tell me
what it's regarding?

Just get him, will you?

I've got lucky
knickers on tonight.

Tough shit. We've
got a job to do.

I'm having him later.

You let me down and you're dead.

Not me, love.

Are we doing this or what?

Where are you gonna be?

Room 314 or 316,
whichever's empty.

What if people are in 'em?

We'll stand outside the door.

Make sure you do. One scream
and you're cagney and Lacey.

I want that door down.

I must need me head testing.

Wanna back out? I've
got a punter panting.

No. Go on, get gone.

Bloody hell, where's he gone?

We better go, or
she'll be up there.

We've got loads of time.

It's got nothing to do with me.

I was just minding it
for a friend of a friend.

When did you realise
that you still had it?

I saw you on the telly tonight.

I thought - god, yeah, that's
that bag I've got in my cupboard.

So this friend...

Which one?

The friend that you
were minding it for.

Was it her?

No, I don't think so.

No, it wasn't her.

You wouldn't lie
to us, would you?

Cos that'd be obstructing police
inquiries and withholding evidence.

Look...

..This has got
nothing to do with me.

I was just trying to
be a helpful citizen.

It's me. Is she all right?

Yeah, she's watching
'the last vampire'.

Don't forget her medicine.

I won't be a minute.

Two teaspoonfuls
just before bed.

Make sure she cleans her teeth.

Put her on, will you?

Hello. Are you at work?

Yeah. Are you being a good girl?

Three. I'll have to go now.

"Blow me a kiss."

Did you get it?

Shit! What's the matter?

It's the manager!

I'll see you in the
morning. Night-night.

Are we right?

I'm not going in no
lift. I'm claustrophobic.

Right, let's go.

We can't go back up -
t'manager might still be there.

We'll go to the
fourth and walk down

I've been looking for you.

Where did you get to?

I got you a drink in.

I had to meet someone.
This is my friend Tracy.

Hello, Tracy.

Why don't the pair of you
come back to my room?

Why don't you tell us your room
number and we can come on after?

Room 323. Don't
forget, I'll be waiting.

We're going up.
You're going out.

No, you don't understand.
I understand perfectly.

Here we are - 315.

Give it me here. There's a
right way to put these things in.

After you.

Two hundred quid.

A proper pay packet, eh?

Must be plenty of
money in chickens.

How many did you
have to stuff to get this?

I don't stuff
chickens, I kill them.

I've seen them bags with all their
insides in, stuffed up their arse.

I have women do that.

I just cut their throats.

Not a bad room, this.

Right, then.

Shall we get on with it?

What are you doing?

What does it look like?

Put it back on.

Oh, I get it, you
want to take them off.

No, you don't. What
do you want, then?

I know your sort.

I don't like that sort of thing.

I was just trying
to get you going.

Liar!

That's why you
girls get into trouble.

What are you on about?

That's why things happen,
and you end up getting hurt.

You have to be careful.

I could hurt you.

What are you doing?

I said, what are you doing?!

Jesus Christ!

Get off! You're hurting me arm.

And don't come back!
She's being murdered!

We'll ring the police, and
tell 'em that we told you.

He's killing her now!

Same man as killed Gina
Dixon! He's in one of your rooms.

Carol's in trouble.

Carol! Carol!

Are you in there?!

Tommy, get that door open. I
haven't got me key, mr Pierce.

What's all the racket about?

Is everything all right, sir?
Yes, fine, apart from the noise.

My wife and I
are trying to relax.

Got that?

I'm terribly sorry, madam, but
we were given to believe that...

Cat got your tongue?

Do you know this woman?

Never seen her
before in me life.

There must have been a mistake.

I should think so, we paid
good money for this room.

Where did the other one go?

I don't know, she
just disappeared.

Go and find her, and get a bottle of
champagne sent up to those people.

And you, you come with me.

No need to be so rough!

Knocks on door

I've just got to deliver this
tray. Don't come out of the room.

Cockroaches and whores -
you can't control either of them.

That's cos you
treat us like vermin.

You are vermin.

You'll have to start again,
only this time do it slower.

I'll tell you what,
it's spotless in here.

Say it.

I'm putting them on.

Oh! They fit me just right.

Now I'm fastening the right leg.

Oh! It's all smooth and silky.

I'm putting the other one on, and
it goes right to the top of me leg.

I'm just fastening the back.

There, it's done.

I'm coming out.

Are you ready?

Do I get to keep the shoes?

You've been ages.

I had to pretend I
was looking for you.

One bottle of best champagne.

Brilliant!

Shall we get in
bed and drink it?

It's like a proper house,
this. You could live here.

Some people do.

One woman's been
here for nearly a year.

It's over £100 a night.

Bloody hell, she
must be a billionaire.

Here we go.

There you are, madam.

Thanks.

Put your arm round me.

Are you all right? Yeah.

I like it here.

Radio: Ragga

And again.

Can we come in?

Every week?

Every week.

Where?

It's up to you.

And I'll get £150?

Every week.

And all I have to do is that?

That's all.

Do you fancy a curry?

No. I've got to get
home for me girl.

Is someone looking after her?

Yeah. What's her name?

Emma.

You can drop me here.

Well?

I'll let you know.

No. You've got it wrong.

Why would she leave
her case there, then?

I don't know, but
there must be a reason.

She didn't need her case cos
she wasn't flogging make-up.

She was.

She found a faster
selling line at a better price.

No.

She was seen working
with a known prostitute.

You've got her mixed up with
someone else. You don't know her.

You don't understand.
She weren't like that.

She were a good girl.

Smell that!

Stupid prat wouldn't
give me t'shoes

you got enough.

What about them scratches, then?

They're from freezing t'chickens,
that's why he wore gloves.

Are you still gonna
work the Lane?

I haven't decided.

You won't have to if you do him.

You'll be made, and
he didn't even touch you.

Not a finger!

He'd been going out with
this woman for 3½ years.

They hadn't done owt, but one night
he told her he liked women in stockings.

She finished right there and then,
put it about that he were a pervert.

Poor bastard.

What happened to Tracy?

Dunno, I thought
she was with you.

She must have stayed with Tommy.

Least she's not
with that shitface.

What's gonna
happen to them kids?

Gina's?

Yeah. Poor little sods.

Why do they do it?

Cos we're whores,
we don't matter.

We're just scum.

To wash down t'plughole.

Cockroaches.

Knock on door

hang on a minute!

Knock on door

hang on!

What...

So where is she?

I don't know.

I'm going to rip your
face off unless you tell me.

Try very hard, or I'll burn you.

Or shall I just cut you?

Noise

hello?

You lied to me.

Who's been a naughty girl, then?

You bastard! Get away!

Don't be like that.

Thought you'd try and
get one over on me?

I don't know what
you're on about.

She was hustling, wasn't she?
You were working with Gina Dixon.

What am I going to do with you?

Yes, sir, can I help you?

You're still a good screw, then.

Still a bastard screw.

You missed me, then.

It's time you were going.

And don't bother coming back.

And what would
you do if I didn't?

Celebrate.

Always keep your chain on, you
don't know who's lurking about.

You best be going now, in
case somebody sees you.

What time do you finish?

Eight o'clock.

I could wait for you.

No. I'll be going home
after that to get some kip.

I could come with you.

I live with me mam,
she'd have a fit

don't you like me?

Course I like you, but I can't.

I could earn money for you.
I could earn lots of money.

Mrs Richards?

Have you found Naomi?

That garrity bitch was
always threatening Tracy.

Rosemary garrity?

Yeah. DC Jameson.

She slung me out! I wonder
who told her to do that!

Same person that told
her to go screwing around!

No! Bastard! You bloody bastard!

You found out she'd
been working the Lane -

only when you told me.
Will you listen to me?!

She was doing it on
your own doorstep!

I had to hear it with me
own ears to believe it.

I had to know what she did.
