:54:02
They must've been
desperate for evidence.
:54:04
They produced Annie's washing-up gloves
like a rabbit out of a hat at one point.
:54:09
Then it was my turn
to take the stand.
:54:11
Mr. Conlon,
did you bomb Guildford?
:54:15
No, I didn't.
:54:17
The police claim that you were in
Guildford on the night of the bombing.
:54:20
Can you tell us where you were?
:54:22
I was in a park in London
at that time.
:54:25
- Who with?
- With Paul Hill sitting there.
:54:29
You met somebody else that night,
about 8:00 p.m.
:54:31
- Aye, I met a man called Charlie Burke.
- And who is he?
:54:35
He was just a fellow,
a homeless guy that we met in the park.
:54:40
Why do you remember
this man so clearly?
:54:43
I was thinking that if I didn't get out
of London fast, I would end up like him.
:54:47
- You told this to the police?
- Aye.
:54:50
- What did they say?
- They said he didn't exist.
:54:53
Mr Conlon, why did you confess
to the Guildford bombing?
:54:58
They beat me...
:55:01
and then they threatened
to kill my father.
:55:03
- Will you repeat that please?
- They terrorized me for seven days.
:55:08
After that,
they threatened to kill my father.
:55:10
I'd have fucking signed anything
after that.
:55:14
- Excuse my language.
- Thank you.
:55:18
You expect this jury to believe
that decorated police of icers...
:55:22
would risk their career
and their reputation...
:55:25
by threatening your father?
:55:27
I don't expect them to believe it
by the time you finish with them...
:55:30
but it happens to be truth.
:55:32
You're an honest man,
aren't you, Mr Conlon?
:55:35
I like to think so.
:55:36
You've told us you remember
this Charlie Burke very well.
:55:42
Aye.
:55:43
Do you remember telling the police
anything else about that night?
:55:48
Let me refresh your memory.
You told Inspector Dixon...
:55:51
that you had committed
a robbery on that night.
:55:53
Now do you remember?
:55:58
Aye.
