YMMV / Endeavour S 6 E 04 Deguello

• Complete Monster: Councillor Clive Burkitt, a smarmy senior local politician, and George McGryffin, a smug belligerent construction magnate, are the partners of Jago. Ensuring his reelection by promising modern homes for the poor people of Oxford, Burkitt secretly conspired with McGryffin to use unsafe, cheaper building materials to construct the Cranmer House apartment tower and split the excess profits. When the local borough surveyor Hollis Binks discovered their scam, the pair buried him alive in the foundation. When construction was complete, the two basked in the good publicity the project brought them. Upon discovering that Hollis's friend Osbert Page was investigating his disappearance, McGryffin had one his goons stab him to death. Because of the shoddy construction, following a year of decay, Cranmer House collapsed one afternoon, killing 16 residents, including multiple children, and injuring numerous others. Only caring about their reputations, Burkitt quickly got to work to bury their involvement in the disaster. After bribery and blackmail failed to shake off Morse's investigations, the pair attempted to assassinate Superintendent Bright and kidnapped Doctor DeBryn to lure Morse out to be murdered. Upon arrest, Burkitt immediately turned on his partner to ensure a lighter sentence.
