He keeps on working to win Chelsea a corner.
He didn't make the clearance.
The ball quickly found its way in Chelsea's half.
[Crowd cheering] The goalkeeper was helpless there.
That is one of the goals of the season.
He finished it well, but the quality of the pass was astounding.
And that will surely be the goal that takes Chelsea to Wembley.
The referee is looking at his watch.
It's been another dominant performance by a resurgent Chelsea, who have their sights firmly set on Europe next year.
And that's it.
The result was never in doubt, but what a performance.
Chelsea at their magisterial best.
[Indistinct conversations] You all right?
Yeah.

Do we know what time, Ashley?
Early hours of the morning.
It's difficult to be precise.
I'd say between 1:00 a.m.
and 4:00 a.m.
This was lying beside him on the ground.
[Camera shutter clicks] And this.
It looks like drugs.
[Camera shutter clicking] There's also a mobile phone.
Given the amount of blood loss, he probably wouldn't have lasted more than a few minutes.
There are no obvious defense injuries.
Priya: We're not well served for CCTV 'round here, I'm afraid.

A random attack?

He's the night security guy.
I said goodbye to him when I left yesterday evening.
But this morning, I couldn't find him.
Any idea why he'd leave the premises in the middle of the night?
The thing is, Steve and Siobhan -- his wife -- they only live five minutes away.
And Siobhan's got cancer.
She hasn't got long to go.
Steve would sometimes visit her when things were quiet, just to check on her.
Was that allowed?
Well, I turned a blind eye.
You've got CCTV presumably?
Sure.
Yeah.
Where were you last night, Mr.
Sylvester?
Just at home.
With my family.
We saw a "Local Hero" certificate he got.
What do you know about that?
Yeah, that was Steve all over.
He was so proud.
Chased a bunch of kids who were dealing drugs.
What do you call it -- a citizen's arrest?
Very anti-drugs, was he?
Steve?
Definitely.
♪♪ Priya: So the attack took place here, pretty much midway between Cooper's, where Steve O'Hara worked, and Brinston Close, where he lived.
Around 3:00 in the morning, give or take.
His wife, Siobhan, is ill, and his boss said Steve made it a habit of popping home in the middle of the night.
We'll need to corroborate that.
Will do.
Found at the scene -- this and this.
I checked out this "Local Hero" thing.
O'Hara chased and caught a gang of teenagers he saw with cocaine.
One kid got nicked -- Finn Davidson.
Then there's Steve's boss, Artie Sylvester.
We've already spoken to him, but we should follow up, see what he has to say.
And finally, Siobhan has a palliative care nurse, Paulo Mendez.
Usual background checks.
Right.
House-to-house.
CCTV.
Phone records.
And we need to find this Finn Davidson.
Let's get busy.
Yeah.

A shock?
My husband is dead.
♪♪ [Cellphone rings] ♪♪ ♪♪ [Cellphone beeps] [Sighs] ♪♪ What can you tell us, Ashley?
Entry point here, in the lower abdomen, likely traveling up through the organs and into the aorta.
A perfect example of how a single stab wound can prove fatal.
The angle makes me think the assailant was very close to the victim.
Like this.
There's also an injury on the side of his head caused by a blunt instrument which hasn't been recovered.
Likely made before the stab wound.
You said there were no defensive injuries?
No.
Someone he knew, then.
Probably.
Look, he's a big fellow, right?
He could chase down a gang of teenagers, but not save himself from this?
Hmm.
The murder weapon has the dimensions of an ordinary kitchen knife -- the one we found at the scene.
Blood spatter would have been significant.
We found his keys and the wallet that you've seen, which didn't contain any money.
Though there was £500 in cash in the portacabin.
So you stab someone you're selling drugs to, panic, and leave the knife and drugs at the scene.
Well, that's assuming Steve was buying, instead of selling.
Although apparently he didn't want anything to do with drugs, at all.
Apparently.
[Camera shutter clicking] Interesting collection of tattoos.
Never quite seen the appeal myself.
Oh, I don't know.

I've been waiting for hours.

What do you think?
Can we get on with it?
Well, I reckon Mummy and Daddy paid for the brief.
Do you know this man?
Steve O'Hara?
You mean the interfering idiot who assaulted me in the street in front of my friends and got an award for it?
Yeah, I know him.
We've remained great friends, actually.
Then you might be aware that, very sadly, he was recently found dead.
Which might explain these posts of yours on social media -- "Steve O'Hara -- fat idiot.
Good riddance."
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
Hang on.
That was on a private account.
Isn't that a breach of my privacy or something?
And this one from a couple weeks ago -- "Watch your back, Stevie boy.
The heat is on."
I wonder, are you familiar with the 1998 Malicious Communications Act?
Is that a thing?
Yes.
Finn, let me ask you a simple question.
Where were you the night before last between 10:00 p.m.
and 4:00 in the morning?
I was at the Chelsea game.
With some friends.
They'll vouch for me.
Afterwards we went to 404.
We were there half the night.
404?
Off Sloane Square.
The 404 Club.
You must know it.
And did you leave at any point?
No.
I mean, I popped out for a smoke a couple of times.
So you did leave?
No.
Well [Sighs] Well, yes.
How long for?
Half an hour?
10 minutes?
Well, which was it?
Because half an hour would be long enough to get from Sloane Square to the murder scene and back again.
Yes, but... We'll be checking CCTV in that area.
Will we find you near the crime scene?
Look.
I can see where you're going with this.
But you can't possibly think that I would have killed this man.
I mean, seriously?
Right.
Let's check out this club he's talking about.
What was it?
The, um...404.
You've never been to the 404, Max?
Yeah, 404.
It's great Friday nights.
Wicked.
Yeah, very funny.
Look, I want his alibi confirmed.
And keep looking at the social media posts and all of the others involved.
It's really important that we don't -- Gov, you're wanted in the interview room.
Look.
I want to say something, because when you look at the CCTV footage, you'll see that, um... well, I did pop out for a bit.
About 2:30.
Went to my girlfriend's flat to see if she wanted to join us.
At 2:30 in the morning?
Yeah, I know.
Stupid thing to do.
I mean, I'm only saying this because I believe in being honest when talking to the police.
Anyway, the next day, she dumped me.
By text.
So this has got nothing at all to do with Steve O'Hara.
Who, by the way, broke my nose.
I mean, the guy was a maniac.
Sorry.
These texts are on your phone?
Well... So if you leave it with us, our technical team can collaborate that.
You'd get it back.
In a day or two.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Well, you've got to love 'em, the entitled, overprivileged offspring of the Chelsea elite.
Is that a point in the investigation or a Max Arnold prejudice?
Bit of both.
Right, where are we at?
Okay.
As we know, the "Local Hero" scheme was started by someone called Ricky Hopkinson.
Hello again.
Ricky's wife is Diana Hopkinson, and they live in Cranfield Gardens.
Oh!
Now, according to Artie, Steve also had a day job working at The Chelsea Nursery.
Which is owned by Diana.
Interesting.
Mm.
Also, boss, the CCTV footage from Cooper's.
Switched off at 3:00 a.m.
on the night of the murder.
Working as normal... and then nothing.
So Steve turned it off before he went home to Siobhan?
Looks like it.
There's also the £500 in cash we found in his drawer at Cooper's.
Right.
Talk to Artie again, Connor.
I think there's something he's not telling us.
Sure.
Ricky Hopkinson.
Hm.
He's what we used to call a well-known local businessman.
Oh.
Another Max Arnold prejudice.
♪♪ Connor: We checked the CCTV, Mr.
Sylvester.
It was fine until 3:00 a.m., then suddenly went blank.
Right.
Almost as if it was deliberately switched off.
Any idea why that might be the case?
Typical of Steve.
How do you mean?
He probably thought that if the CCTV was off, he was safe to pop home.
Had he done that before?
I never checked.
Right.
So how did you know to switch it on again?
You're on camera at 7:58 in Steve's portacabin.
We also found an envelope containing £500 in cash.
Why might Steve have had that?
No idea.
Listen.
Steve might not have been the sharpest knife in the box, but he was a lovely man.
Maybe I covered for him a few times when he went to see Siobhan.
