CUMMING: "Unforgotten," (thunder claps) (whimpers) (clicks) Some old bones are discovered in a half-demolished building, and two police detectives have to find out whose they are.

It's an old case, a cold case.

The police are following threads.

Questions are asked, but no one can remember.

It's like... trying to grab hold of fog.

As the police peel away layers of forgotten promises, lovers, crimes, bodies, murders, they're pulled into an ever-growing web of long-buried secrets.

So, uh, yesterday evening, we ran the name James Sullivan through, uh, missing person records and very quickly, we found a 17-year-old man of that name who was reported missing in November 1976.

Jimmy, as he called himself, was reported missing by his mum, who I spoke to briefly on the phone last night.

I told her I wanted to come up to Liverpool, where she lives, to take a DNA swab so that we could make a formal identification of remains that we believe to be of her son.

39 years after she last saw him, she cried like a child at this news.

As did I, um, as she told me how she'd missed her boy-- it's her only child-- for every hour of every day of every week since she last saw him.

So I want to find who caused a pain that's very much alive today-- who took his life, who took hers-- and I want to punish them.

39 years later.

Firstly, family.

Jake.

We want to know anything and everything about 27 Arlingham Place, from its incarnation as a hostel in 1972 up until the point it shut in the late '90s.

Kaz.

I want you to trace uniform and C.I.D.

who covered that patch in the '70s.

There should be plenty of them still with us.

Was Jimmy Sullivan known to them?

Which residents were known to them?

Murray, there are several missing person report files on him, the first one from 1976-- I want you to follow up on those.

Finally, we need to chase up the names and numbers in this diary.

First up, "Jo-Jo."

Is it a man?

Is it a woman?

Friend, girlfriend?

We need to know.

I want everyone to take a copy of these names and run them past whoever, whoever you speak to.

These are our tangible connections to the past and to Jimmy Sullivan.

When I fell pregnant, my parents disowned me.

But Thomas...

He agreed to marry me.

Turns out it was the last nice thing he ever did.

Pretty soon, the only thing that gave him any more pleasure than drinking was beating me.

When Jimmy got older, beating him.

And so I drank too much, to blot it all out.

And one day I came home from work.

Jimmy was gone.

He left a note.

He'd gone to London to find work and he would send money to help me escape.

(softly): Bless his beautiful heart, he did.

And then one day, the letters just stopped.

And I waited.

I waited even though I knew.
