But he's fast asleep now – I think the excitement of the day

must have worn him out. He loves that toy elephant he's cuddling.

That's Mr Pom Pom. So, can I see him again now?

Yeah, of course – in a moment. Can I just ask you about these drawings?

Drawings? Yes, I got him to draw what he'd seen with some crayons. Look...

Well, that's obviously his daddy.

Are you sure? Pip said it was Woody. Woody, like in Toy Story?

I guess so. Does that mean anything to you?

Not really – except he likes Woody, especially his cowboy hat.

There's something I don't get. People who top themselves – dads.

There's, like, two patterns isn't there?

There's the ones that want to destroy everything:

kill themselves, kill their families, these family annihilators.

And then there's the usual one: dad's depressed, desperate,

kills himself to save his family. In some mad logic. But...

who leaves a kid by the side of a dual carriageway?

I don't think he's dead. I think he's done a runner.

I would too if she was my wife. What is your problem with her?

Can I have a quick word in the other room?

Right, I can't tell if he's witnessed anything truly traumatic.

He's not particularly chatty, which is fair enough, poor sod.

He's tired. I think he's walked quite a way.

How...? Hang on. From what I can gather,

Dad left him in the car – didn't come back. Pip went looking for him.

I think when he got to the big road, he didn't know what to do.

How far can a four-year-old walk? Further than you think. A few miles.

And has he drawn something? Yes. A couple.

Now, this is Pip's picture of where he was this morning with his dad.

So, we've got hills, birds, grass, sand.

I asked him what he sounded like and he... he did a sort of roaring sound.

Roar... Waves. Sound of the sea. Bang on.

Just a sec. What are you looking for? Map. Just use your phone!

Got it. OK. Right. I just.... Here we are. So,

this is where Pip was found, right? And let's say he can walk four miles.

So, that makes our search area a three-mile stretch of coastline.

We can discard this bit because it's inland, so that leaves us with a

three-mile stretch of coastline. And he had the car, right?

There are car-parking spots here, here and here.

Now, in Pip's picture, he can hear the sea but he can't see it.

Now, I know these two car parks – Neil and I walk down there sometimes.

They're a bit away from the water. You can't see the sea. This one...

I'm not so sure... Evan, can we have one more go with Pip?

I want to know anything Jamie might have said to

him... What's that? Oh, no! She's gone. What's she playing at?

Excuse me, DS Pritchard. I think you might want

to take a look at Pip's other picture.

Erm... Pip and Daddy?

Daddy and Woody. The character from Toy Story.
