Taggart, Series 1

Livingstone:
...Struck from behind, I thought.

Andrews:
[Frustrated with Livingstone's impatience] I do know a bit about skull fractures(!) A hammer, I'd say, with some force.

Taggart:
The cause of death?

Andrews:
Well, it didn't just give her a headache(!)

Taggart:
Why did O'Donnell go to all that trouble to prevent identification?

Livingstone:
If she was attacked with a knife in the lay-by, the hammer blow to the skull suggests she was killed later.

Andrews:
Makes sense. He wouldn't use two weapons to attack her with.

Taggart:
[To Livingstone] That bails out your theory.

Andrews:
What's that?

Livingstone:
That she was alive when she was taken back to Dalmally Road, like Cunningham said.
