Episode 7 - S1-E7

Corrected entry: Carling is seen at his locker putting a cassette tape in his pocket after Billy Kemble's death. If he did have a transcript, why did he have a brawl with Di Tyler later on over another one? Skelton only made one copy.

Correction: He's heading out of the station, it's more likely that he was putting his police badge in his pocket, considering it looks like a leather item.
