- The insider can report that Tobias Montague, second son of the Earl of Montague-- Ellie's a journalist.
She's from working class background, she's kind of fought her way into this male dominated industry.
Can you confirm this is a murder inquiry?
She is on the gossip pages, but she really wants to kind of do the high end, big storylines, so that's why she's always hanging about, fishing.
Cause of death?
- She has been working closely in the intervening year with Geordie.
- My source also gave me a name.
- She gets information from certain cases and she gives him information about certain things that she's found out as a journalist.
(crowd chattering) - With Geordie, I think she sees him as a peer, and I think that's what's really nice about her is she doesn't see him as a superior in any way.
And I think that's what he likes about her, as well.
She's really cheeky, you know?
She'll nick his cigarettes, and steal his drink, and bits like that, which keeps him on his toes.
- What is it with bloody students this time of year?
- Just letting their hair down.
- And their trousers.
- Whose letting their trousers down?
- Oh, morning, Ellie.
- I meet Ellie one day, and Will doesn't quite agree with her tactics and the methods of gleaning information.
And she becomes a little bit of an annoyance on certain cases when she's always there trying to take the tabloid angle on things.
- Who was she then, drunk posh girl who met the wrong bloke?
- She was a young woman trying to enjoy herself and make something of her life.
- Aren't we all?
- Are you following me?
- I got here first, so no.
Not technically.
- But she knows what she wants in life, and he slowly and surely starts to develop feelings for her, and her for him, even though she thinks that maybe he's a bit too you know, straight lace sometimes.
It's just it's wrong for me to behave like that.
It's the church.
- Oh, bringing in the big guns?
What are you going to do next, throw holy water over me?
She's really fun, she's confident, she knows who she is, she's unapologetic about everything.
She takes her job seriously, but not the way that she lives life.
I think we could all use you know, Ellie's way of looking at things as a really positive way of living.
I like her.
Chin-chin.
