We have intelligence that a terrorist cell has set itself up in the north of

England with the quest aim of carrying out bombing campaigns here in the

at the end of the month. We're all here for the same reason. We were shafted by

the MOD.

We have to make ourselves heard by other means.

Who are they? They're men trained undercover agents.

Trained by who?

Us. So how do they contact him?

Through the journalist.

Sue Denver doesn't know what she's dealing with. Take it with me. The gang

going to need money to buy explosives.

You are going to provide it.

That's your way in.

There's a little complication for us to deal with. Hello.

This is Sean Duffy.

His father was killed ten years ago when a paramilitary action was ambushed by

British soldiers.

Are you sure you want to go through with it? Because they've told me only to

bring you if you're certain you want to join the group.

I'll know if you're even thinking about lying.

Can't see me missing from here.

I wonder what they've got lined up for us.

I don't know, but I bet it's something nice.

This is our warning shot, Gavin.

You set the timer for two hours.

In you go.

Ready?

You have exactly two hours before it goes off.

The official... Gus,

are you going to tell me what's wrong?

I've got something for you.

You never were very keen on doing your homework, were you?

Where's Jake?

He's not here. Where is he? I don't know. Where are you?

He's been lying to me. Why did he do something like that? Do you know what

this? Slippery's mind.

What do you think I meant when I said I joined the IRA?

Do you think I was organising raffles? I killed people for God's sake. Why would

they send you to jail if you were just obeying orders?

Because if people like myself don't take the blame, the repercussions go right

to the top.

He killed our dad.

He gets what he deserves.

Who planted the bomb in the pub?

It was a mistake.

It's all over now, isn't it?

We got pellets!

Right, we need to get her out of here.

What's it feel like to be in the last seconds of your life?

It's okay. Me, Teddy.

It's him now.

I don't know why you two are so calm.

We're sitting ducks here. If the police were coming, they'd be here by now. I'm

not talking about the police. I'm talking about the Irish.

How do we know there's only two of them? We don't. Do you know him?

Yeah. Sean Duffy from the Lower Falls.

Him and I were part of an active service unit commanded by his dad.

I got the army to set up a trap. Went tits up, his dad got killed. See, some

folks just can't let things go.

Hey, what are you two doing?

Oi, I'm not having this. What are you doing?

Hey, if we don't get her to a hospital, she's going to die. She was going to

shove us, lad.

If you even think about it, Teddy, I'll shoot you first. Hey, she saved you the

bother.

Are you going to tell her father the truth or a version of it? A version of

Don't let this cloud your vision.

The objective remains the same as it's always been.

Gather evidence.

Prevent the bombing.

Right, he wants us to leave her and the car in the first lay -by after Junction

27.

Well, talk to me, Garth.

Her Liam was sued then, but she's lying dead in our backseat. You're making

plans to dump her body. I don't particularly feel like talking.

Pull over, will you?

Eh? Pull over. I need a leak.

Every time I hear a car, I keep expecting the police or some mad

unit. Where is everyone?

Burying our friends from the north.

Is Gavin back yet?

Why?

Oh, we had a bit of a chat, too.

He'll be back the day I'm back.

Hi. Can we talk?

What do you want?

Look, what I said the other night. When you were drunk?

Yeah, I was drunk, but I meant it.

You know, we can start again.

Oh, God, get some sleep.

Look, my life took a wrong turn, but I can get it back now.

If you'd told me about him... What?

Well, I'd never have left.

Look, can we talk inside?

I've got to get ready for work.

Oh, just back off, will you? Get off him! Go away.

No, please. Go away!

Lainey!

Mate, it breaks my heart.

What? You've got a spy.

Standard issue. Somebody must have dropped it in all the excitement.

I reckon it's down to one of two.

Who?

Gus.

Dylan? Oh, I think... It's going to hurt.

You gotta do it, haven't you?

Don't you?

See, you and I can trust.

We're the same.

So who do you think it is?

Gavin.

Gavin or Ronnie, but my money's on Gavin. Gavin?

He didn't have any trouble planting that bomb. That's what makes me think it's

him. That bomb, he must have disarmed it.

Well, no, that bomb went off. No, my bomb went off.

See, when I wrecked the place, I left a little gift. Eh?

Why?

Why?

Because of all this shit!

the MOD are going to give us, Lee?

None!

I mean, that bomb, that pump bomb, that's just a tater. You wait till we

down to London.

I mean, Jake reckons it's all going to be controlled, but he reckons I'm going

to be given all these accurate warnings, but I'm not!

It's going to be mayhem!

So the bomb that Gavin planted... No, no, no.

See, the device Gavin planted was meant to take out the emergency services. It's

like a double whammy.

Well, maybe your bomb set it off.

Did you see the case he was packed in? I don't think so. No, I reckon Gavin made

sure that bombed him go off.

Where are you going? I won't be long.

Well, don't be. We've lots to talk about.

Lainey? What?

I'm looking for Garth. Who are you?

I work with him.

I'm Lainey. Do you know where I might find him?

It's important.

I'm worried about him. I don't know where he is.

How did you find me anyway?

You're right though.

I need to find them.

Garth?

That device you planted, it didn't go off. Leave it. That haunted terrace,

already planted one when he wrecked the place.

It's a confirmed forensic sound, a second bomb that had been disabled.

Will you listen? Listen!

You didn't do it, OK?

That nobody died because of you. I thought you'd be pleased.

I am.

Get me up.

We'll hear the new plans when we get back.

How did you persuade Asher to reinvigorate me?

He extolled your virtues.

Yeah? Then what?

Pretend to quit.

What did he say?

Well, he's been in Tokyo up to see me. Thinks I'm going off the rails.

I suppose thanks are in order.

Well, not really.

Terry found a cassette.

What? It must be our one that turned out to be blank and could have been

switched.

Yes.

You reckon he's down to you?

Yeah, he's smart like that.

What do you want to do?

I'll have to convince him otherwise, won't I?

Right, well, we cannot wait another week. We need a direct plan.

Something we can put into practice straight away.

And something that can live with the reality of our finances.

Terry, sit down.

Before we go any further,

I want to know who this tape belongs to.

Somebody has been taking the piss.

I think it's you.

We're probably all feeling a bit paranoid at the moment, but there's no

Take your clothes off.

Wait a minute, where's your proof?

I think you're wearing it. Take them off. You're joking. He just wants a look

my ass. Take them off now!

If you've nothing to hide, Gavin... Hey, why are you all picking on me?

Let's just say you've done things that arouse my suspicions, and right now

you're confirming them, lad.

I'm not taking my clothes off.

I'm not going to tell you again, boy.

Look, we can all take them off. Turn it into a circus.

Come on, then.

But I'm not stripping.

You want this, you come and have a feel, big boy.

Come on. It's not like it isn't your first time.

So what exactly was it that...

Arouse these suspicions. Shut it.

Oh, stop wasting time, Terry. Don't you want to go all the way?

You ever thought of admitting yourself into a psychiatric hospital?

Well, Terry, what did you find?

I have to be humiliated because of him.

I thought we were a team.

Maybe you should think before you start pointing the finger.

Somebody has to know something about that tape. Could it not have belonged to

Sue Denver?

Could it not belong to one of the men you killed?

Did you think about that?

No, because you never think about anything, Terry, do you? That's your

boy. Oh, you've got all the answers, haven't you, Ronnie?

Hey, do you know something?

I've never trusted you since day one, neither.

You don't trust anybody.

What was your story again, lad? Eh?

Oh, yeah, yeah. Your handler told you your cover was blown. The provies were

after you, so you came back home and... It's all a bit Jackanory, isn't it, lad?

I knew Ronnie in Belfast. When the provost discovered he had been working

undercover, they sent him a letter bomb care of the MOD in London. Word came

back to the senior council of the IRA that the bomb had connected, but he'd

been blinded.

Here, say it, Jake.

If he's blinded, how come there are no scars on his hands, eh?

Eh, Ronnie?

Terry. Sit down!

Right.

Credit cards and braille. Oh, you've been very thorough, haven't you, eh?

Organ donor cards.

What's this?

Give it to me. What is it?

Queen's first rifles.

Give it to me.

loyal to that shite.

None about you adds up, does it, lad? Eight years I spent with the Ra, and I

kept that so I'd never forget why I was there.

Take your glasses off, Ronnie. No. I don't think there's anything wrong with

your eyes. Take your glasses off. Take them off, Ronnie. No.

Can I have my glasses back, please?

And it fits without me, Jake.

How are you coping?

Oh, you know.

You?

Trying to hold it together for Jake. Keep telling myself it'll soon be over,

our lives back.

Which ones?

The ones we had before Jake joined the IRA.

There has to be hope, you know.

Gavin, I want to tell you something that nobody else knows, not even Jake.

I'm going to have a baby.

That's great.

Why haven't you told Jake?

I'm afraid that if he knew, he might not go through with us.

And I know Jake.

I don't want to grow old with a man who's eaten up with bitterness.

I don't know how you could do that, boy.

Going to court during time.

You just have to shut part of yourself down, that's all.

I'd take the Hamlet way out.

Oh, yeah? What's that?

Zionite. You all right, Tom?

I think we need Terry back.

Oh, I don't know, Ronnie.

I think he's too much of a loose cannon.

That's why we need him back.

You don't want him going off before we do.

I'm going for a walk, clear my head.

Feeling the pressure, are we?

Yeah. The truth is, none of us know how any of this is going to turn out.

How long did you work undercover for?

Twelve years.

And what did that do to you?

Ask yourself the same question.

I'm asking you.

Well, I took a lot of it out on my wife, Monica.

It's always the ones closest to you who suffer the most.

What about your wife?

Yeah, she... She suffered as well.

What do you want to take out of all this?

Ourself for the money.

Do you know what I want?

Acknowledgement.

I want someone, anyone to say, I've been watching you through all the

sacrifices, all the pain, and you know what?

You've done a decent job.

To keep her place grand and tidy, Terry.

As my mum's.

Got to have some respect, haven't you?

Did you make this?

How long time ago?

Must have taken a lot of patience.

How do you mind?

Took me hours.

Couldn't do it now, though, aye?

You know, sometimes I look at this and I wonder where I've gone.

What we've been through, Terry, there's no way you could come out of it in one

piece. First few times I went out with the punishment squads.

Couldn't believe what I was doing.

Did me head in.

Then I got this voice.

It's not you doing this, lad. It's not you doing this.

And after that, I don't know, it just got easier.

Also, I didn't even think about what I was doing. I just did it.

And all the faces started to look the same.

All the screams sounded like a million miles away.

How do I get back?

There's a bit of a schlep up here for you. I don't know why I couldn't wait.

Yeah, well, go on if you didn't see it like that.

He's just worried that I'm not buying into his bullshit. He sent you up here

find out if I've gone native.

What, have you? Of course I have.

Who are these men you've been working with?

We spent several years with our lives undercover.

The way you see it, now they're being shattered by the people this year. Yeah,

more or less.

Look, I'm not saying you're wrong. I mean, it's just that maybe you're

identifying with them for the wrong reasons.

I'm just going with my instinct.

Which is fine.

As long as you're being honest with yourself.

So, St.

Stephen's Tower houses Big Ben and the three ways to access the main

foundations. And they are the sewers, the underground and the common pipe

subway. And we can access that here.

Follow it all the way along Embankment onto Westminster where we access a

smaller private subway which takes us under Big Ben. And we can still get into

it. IRA unit I was in planned an attack on Big Ben in 1991.

We had a couple of guys down there, spent two months digging a connecting

tunnel. And what happened to the plan? What do you think?

I chipped off my handler.

Extra security made in a non -starter.

But the connecting tunnel's still there?

Oh, yeah.

All they did was break it up.

There's a friend of mine, he's an anarchist.

He's opened it up for us.

And once we get down there, all we need is bolt cutters and a way to take out

the CCTV.

But we're down with the cables, so it should be quite straightforward.

And what about the explosives?

I've calculated we need 50 kilos of Samtex.

Four backpacks placed at strategic points around the foundations.

So tomorrow morning...

I'm going to present myself at the Ministry of Defence and demand to be

If they don't give us what we want, we can set off the Samtecs with a radio

-controlled detonator. We've got a half -mail radius.

They won't let you get anywhere near the Minister.

Then we bring down Big Ben.

If you do get near him, they'll just arrest you.

What, they arrest me and put me in the dock?

No, I don't think so. It's a win -win situation.

And you've got the explosives?

Bought and paid for. Did we agree on a warning?

We did.

Two hours, Tom.

Thank you.

Let's see the MOD say we don't exist after they say.

Right, so we set off at 7 .30 a .m. tomorrow.

If any of you have any loved ones or friends, say your goodbyes tonight.

Just in case.

Yeah, that's it.

Is that your old school? Do you mind pulling over?

You don't look like a runner, huh?

Hey, watch it.

We're going to be late.

They can wait.

Right, I'll be in the pub.

Hi.

Hey, look, can I talk to you?

Lainey, please, open your window.

Just that much.

Look, I know I probably sounded like I was two stops past parking. The thing

was, I thought that I'd done something terrible.

But it turns out that I haven't done more right now.

And I am so sorry that I scared you.

You know, and I really wouldn't blame you if you started up your car and tried

to run over me just to get away. But the thing is, I'd really like to talk to

you.

So really?

Ivan's going to be 16 in October, yeah?

Yeah.

I'm his dad, aren't I?

No, you're not. You don't need to treat me like an idiot because I've done the

dates. He even looks like me, God help him. He's not your son.

No.

All right, I understand what you're saying, but I am his biological father,

right?

No.

How could I not be? God, do you want me to spell it out for you?

Are you alright?

I don't know.

I don't know.

This is a bad habit.

You're an hour late.

Yeah, please don't fire us.

This elevation shows the base of the buttresses.

This is where we pack the explosives.

A bit more like it. Got all the visuals there.

You can pick them up tomorrow morning at the school. They're meeting at seven.

Don't make a move till they're all there.

Tell them, Colin.

There's a change of plan. We won't be picking them up at the school.

Now, wait a minute.

The operation was to prevent the bombing while gathering enough evidence.

That's the key.

Enough evidence.

So what more do you need?

To deny people like this the oxygen of publicity is never wholly successful.

They'll go to court, they'll have their say, it'll be reported in the press, and

a vociferous minority will choose to believe their lies.

We need these men discredited.

Tomorrow we want you to go along with the plan. Meet them at the school,

with them to pick up the explosives.

Once that's done, we'll make the arrest.

Sounds too high -risk to me.

He's a high -risk man.

We've got an SAS squad primed and ready to intercept.

How are they going to know us?

Trust me.

So where exactly is the action happening?

They'll be close to the picker. The less you know, the less you'll worry.

And the less patronised I am, the less likely I am to give somebody a slap.

I'll put that down to nerves.

You can apologise when this is over.

Oh, come on, you're just pissed off because they're bigger than you and

moved the gold fast. Well, you're not.

Okay, what do you think they lied about?

Look, I talked to Jake about his time undercover.

He said he did 12 years.

We've all got our legends.

Yeah, but the way he spoke, he wasn't lying.

It doesn't matter whether he's lying or not because he's planning to blow up Big

Ben in the last time I checked. That was against the law. Yeah, but if they're

lying to us about that, what else are they lying about?

I don't know.

Well, why have they moved the goalposts? I don't know what's going on.

Do you want to quit?

No. No, I'm seeing this through. Good.

This is your turn to get the food in.

What have you forgotten now?

You...

Hello? Listen, asshole.

I've got a gun to your bird's head.

So get over here.

Who is this?

Never mind who I am.

Just get over here now.

Be alone.

Be on foot.

If I see you arriving tooled up or team -handed, the bitch here's dead.

He's here.

He must have had some effect on him all those years ago.

Hello?

Shut the door.

Where's Lainey?

Open your jacket.

Take her out.

Slowly.

Put it in the stairs.

Right. Now go back down.

We're going to my car.

Look, hang on a minute. What's all this about?

You bastards killed my brother.

What's Lenny got to do with that?

Nothing.

Look, you want me to go with you, you let her go now.

Don't be a dickhead.

Well, I'm not going anywhere. If you're going to shoot me, do it now.

You think you're in charge?

I'll show you who's in charge.

No, wait!

Wait there!

You still want to be a smartass?

I thought the queue was a mile long.

Go.

Go!

So, where we going?

Anywhere nice?

Shut up. Sorry, it's nervous disorder. Tendency to talk shite when... Shut up!

Right, what are you going to do, kill me?

Yeah, you see, that's the problem, isn't it, eh? When the words run out, that's

when the violence begins. So, I mean, it's not really in my interest to shut

is it?

What football team do you support?

Oh, come on, tell me what football team you support. What is it?

Celtic? Man U? I mean, I'm a Liverpool fan. When you walk through... Do you

music?

You ever listen to any of the old stuff? The Undertons, they were from Northern

Ireland, weren't they? Stop the car.

Take a jacket off.

Don't turn around.

You've got something in the jacket, haven't you?

Come on!

Not wise, big lad.

No.

Brave.

Here we go.

It's like the final spasm in some massive convulsion, isn't it? I mean,

killings for the cause, they stopped ages ago, didn't they? I mean, now it's

just killings to cover up killings, killings for revenge, killings just for

sheer hell of it. I mean, dying.

Ah, that's something else. You see, you can only die once. Fucking shade is not

going to save your life.

It's not my life that I'm trying to save.

Your brother never wanted you to be a part of this, did he? Shut up about my

brother! Come on, you knew that he got into something that he couldn't get out

of, but he never wanted you to be involved.

I haven't a clue what you're talking about. How old were you, 10 or 11, when

your dad was murdered?

And that must have been hell for a kid. You trying to be brave and wanting to

cry, but everyone saying, oh, the brave wee man, keeping all those feelings

suppressed. You want to cry now, but you can't.

but you can barely look me in the eye, dear comrade. You're the one who's

betraying the wishes of your brother and your father. Terry!

Oh!

You took your time, didn't you? I was reciting from the book of bollocks

Sounded like you were on the last page, you know. Yeah, I was about to ask the

poor little bastard if he came here often.

Oh, this thing's killing me. I'll take it on your feet again.

Hurry up, I've got to get back to Laney.

Come on. Hold on. Let's go.

Lady.

You all right?

Come on. It's okay.

It's okay. Come here.

Oh, come on. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

It's over.

I suppose you want me to say thanks.

No.

But if you wanted to show your gratitude in some other way... Garth, if it

wasn't for you, none of this would have happened.

You started it.

How did you make that out? You asked me for change for the bus.

Look, I'm going back to London after tomorrow.

Maybe you could come down to see me.

Do you really think you're ready?

Yeah. I think I am.

Come on, Garth.

I just remind you of a time when life was better. You made it better.

I don't think so.

What about when we came back from the pub that night?

What about that? You were all over me.

I was drunk and I fancied you.

That's all.

We have so much in common.

Anyway. Sort of seen from them.

Well, that's good, you know.

I hope it works out for you.

It was never meant to be with us, was it?

Oh, Adam, don't say that.

Try again in another 16 years.

Yeah.

Before I change my mind.

Ready? Set up a beat.

I wish these Chechens would take a cheque.

Who are they?

Oh, Chechen rebels.

Cheap, are they?

Buying black markets, Semtex doesn't give you a whole lot of choice.

Be careful.

You are doing the right thing.

This isn't easy, so I'm going to say it quickly.

You were right.

Me? What about?

We should never have taken this job.

I don't know what I was thinking, all that vocation crap and competitiveness.

Taking on the M .O .D., I put you in a dangerous situation.

No, you put yourself in a dangerous situation.

I didn't have to follow you.

No, but you did.

Oh, well.

This is for girls.

Alright boys.

So, are we up for this then?

Where's Ronnie?

Taking a dump.

Big much nerve.

There's a lot coming back here from Ireland.

You should think this is what you're fighting for now.

How do you feel now?

Do you still think it's home?

Yeah, I do, yeah.

Nice and entrusted, eh?

Only Jay gets out of the vehicle.

All right, sir.

Jack, you got the money?

Yeah, I got it.

Hang on, where are they going?

I'm not up in now. Hold on.

Get screwed or I'm going to rip your feet off and burn it for your mother.

Come on.

You've got to be free.

You've got to be free.

Game on.

Let him go, Terry.

Go on, piss off before I make you pay for me wheels.

Cut my head.

This doesn't hold like much, does it?

How many of these we got?

About 40.

That should do it.

Hey, David.

Why don't you stop?

Hey, pull over, Teddy.

Pull over!

Pull over now!

Bunny. Bunny.

Bunny, are you all right?

Get out!

Get out! Get out! Get out of the van now!

Can't you stop?

Hey, you all right?

Are you dead as well?

Sorry, you don't get away from me that easily.

Come on!

Have a nice day on the farm. Yeah? What's he saying?

He said, well done.

Well done. Did you tell them we were a ball hair up getting killed? I did

mention it, yeah.

All right.

Have you seen this?

They never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Why is there no mention

of Ronnie Shanley in that report?

This is an area of national security.

We have to be careful which information the press are allowed to have. Which you

should be grateful for. I mean, you infiltrate a group of four men and fail

spot that one of them is pretending to be blind.

Or that he belonged to an Irish terrorist organisation.

Well, if that's true, how come he was almost killed by an Irish terrorist

organisation? Different faction.

So are you looking for him?

Of course we're looking for him.

Did you know this was going to happen?

If we'd have known, you'd have known.

Well, according to what you told us, these men worked for the IRA for years.

That's right.

So why would Ronnie Shanley, if he's a Republican extremist, want them dead? It

doesn't add up. In the interview which Jake Scanlon gave to Sue Denver, he

claimed that he'd been working for us.

Shanley obviously took that at face value.

Ronnie had been in the British Army. And then embraced his new extremist creed

with the fervour of a convert.

How long did he work undercover?

Well, have we wasted enough time on this already? My advice, unanswered

questions, forget them. Go and get drunk, get laid.

I'm in the next one.

I think they're right about Ronnie being an extremist, but not a Republican

extremist. They, um... Yeah, I know.

I've got to let it go.

Know what gets me?

Well, now you're doing it. It's aptitude.

It's clasping.

Get away with it. We're a couple of oiks.

Get drunk, get lame.

That's a nice laugh.

Yeah, we've no proof they're lying.

Right, let's get proof.

No, I'm serious. Let's take a day off, see what we can come up with. A whole

day? You don't want to take on over your life.

That's what we're saying. Esha knew what Ronnie had lined up.

And we need to establish a link between them.

So where do we start?

We start by tracking down Ronnie.

Right, well, first thing, we have to discount the idea that Ronnie's part of

terrorist organisation.

Depending on how you define terrorist... Now, he came into my room when I was

kitting up, right? I thought it was my lucky day, cos he's blind, but he isn't.

But you being undercover didn't worry him?

No, well, I think it didn't worry him, cos he's on the same side as us.

He was working for the MOD.

I remember Richie said it wasn't enough to catch these men, they had to be

discredited as well. Oh, yeah, well, maybe that wasn't enough either.

Got it.

Ronnie's regiment.

Queen's first rifles.

Same as me.

Go off, let's just pretend.

No, Escher told me they were recently disbanded.

Oh, and there you go. Yeah, well, Ronnie had a sentimental attachment to his

regiment. You remember when Terry opened his wallet, the cap badge said, that's

what kept them going. Well, that was Ronnie's whole thing.

That's why he killed the others. You know, allegiance to the flag, the

the regiment, you know. He saw that the others had betrayed all that when they

tried to hold the MOD to ransom.

So how does that help? What do you think happens to all that regimental tat, the

memorabilia? Well, it goes into a huge skip somewhere.

Yeah, maybe.

Or maybe they auction it off.

We've got to find him before he finds us, based on what he did to the others.

Look at this.

I have no idea what this is.

That'll be me.

Die. Is that him?

It's hard to tell without him.

That's him.

Front or back? I don't mind.

Well, I don't want to sound competitive.

Well, then I'll take the back.

Hello, Ronnie. What the hell are you doing here?

Easy.

You never hear the old saying, no.

When your job's done, go home.

He's not dropping it. Drop it.

Shoot him.

We need him alive.

Oh, jeez.

Where were you?

You all right?

Yeah.

Cuff him.

Cuff him.

You're arresting me?

This should be interesting.

Have you not got it yet?

Huh? You're completely out of your depth.

You just think you can break every rule and get away with it, don't you?

We're talking about Northern Ireland.

There are no rules.

Which police station are you taking me to?

We're not.

Isn't it customary when you've made an arrest... Didn't you just say there were

no rules? We don't want you contacting Esher until we've established a few

things. Who's Esher? Oh, yes. Told you up against the best.

I thought you said a good undercover man had no past.

You're human after all.

You look a bit spassel, don't you?

He's a good writer.

Liam?

Gotcha.

What's that going to prove?

I don't know yet. It's going to make your day in court a bit more

then, isn't it?

See, what I can't get my head around is... Jake, Tom.

Terry, they all did the same job as you in Northern Ireland.

How could you kill them like that in cold blood?

They betrayed the flag.

The flag?

They turned against their own country. They were willing to kill their own

people. You thought you knew Jake's gone, and I worked with him in Belfast.

knew what he was capable of. So why didn't the M .O .D. just pay them what

owed them? I can't speak for the M .O .D. Might have shut them up.

Only one way guaranteed to do that.

Oh.

See, now I reckon that you were told to destroy these, but you just couldn't

bear to let them go.

That's over a little bit of approval.

They look good, that. A huge blab of it in court.

But why don't we stop the act, eh?

You're not going to break cover to testify against me. Well, we'd make an

exception in your case.

And then what?

I go to court, plead guilty.

I'll be well looked after in prison, believe you me.

You haven't thought this through, have you?

Everybody else has packed up and gone home, but you two are still running

like headless chickens.

Don't you get it? The game's over.

What's with this game's shit?

It's not a game. People died.

You know why you were chosen for the job, Catman?

Because you're a killer.

The man who strung up your way, you executed him in cold blood. You might

have liked the job, but at least we thought you'd understand.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, come on!

Your disciplinary record is still very shaky.

But mine's fairly solid.

I'm a lighter, phone call.

Phone lighter down for a couple of hours, right?

You can't do this.

No rules, remember?

Um, tell them we've got an appointment with Richie.

No, land a bit lower. Go fresher.

Hi. Got an appointment to see Colin Asher.

Not today, you don't.

Are you sure?

He's not seeing anybody today.

Right.

Well, that didn't work. What are we going to do now?

Wait. Sir Davey's already left for a lunch, Minister.

Is I booked him a table at the Savonarola? Here we go.

Helpful young lady.

Hey, we've got some really good news for you. Why don't I believe you? Because

you're steeped in lies.

We've just arrested Ronnie Shanley.

Well done.

Well done.

Why didn't you tell us that you'd already infiltrated the cell with your

man? What are you talking about?

Ronnie Shanley was an extremist Republican.

He executed those men because they betrayed his organisation. He executed

because you were scared they were going to betray your organisation.

You ever met Ronnie?

No, and I don't have time for this.

You were his handler, though, weren't you?

You wanted those men silent because they were threatened to expose what went on.

I'll expose your part of it.

You were never in Ireland, were you? You have no idea what we were up against.

No idea what was at stake.

My advice is to leave well alone.

Why were we given the job in the first place?

The government had to be seen to be doing something. You gave them plausible

deniability. We were a front for Ronnie Shanley.

Richie knew that before the buck reached the government, it'd have to go through

you. And you were never going to let that happen, were you?

Little my working overtime.

Excuse me.

I think I have the lamb cutlet, and I have them.

Have a pink, please. And a bottle of Barolo.

Oh, and can you bring two glasses? I'm expecting a guest.

Thank you.

Find out where he is and get him out.

Gentlemen, don't get up.

Jake Scanlon, Tom Whitehead and Terry Orr. You knew they were going to be

killed. Did I?

Well, I hope you've got a good lawyer.

I think you turned a blind eye to what Esher did.

Really? What did he do?

Oh, you know what he did.

Here's the news.

We'll go to court to prove it.

Ronnie Shanley's in custody.

It all sounds very exciting, but I think you're forgetting one thing.

These men, they were terrorists.

No, that's what you made them.

You gave them an impossible job and then you cut them loose.

Going undercover in Northern Ireland has saved hundreds of lives.

So why don't you pay up?

Why didn't you recognise them for what they'd done or keep them safe?

You wanted them silenced to protect the people whose orders they were carrying

out. You wanted them dead because you didn't want to give up this. You knew

compensation had run into millions.

Sorry I'm late.

I think you're wrong on a number of counts.

Compensation, for example. I mean, Mrs Scanlon is here to negotiate a

on behalf of herself and the men's family.

Monica, what are you doing?

I don't have the strength for this anymore.

He's branded Jake a terrorist. I don't want to hear it. It was running.

We've established a connection. I don't want to hear it.

Don't do it anymore.

I think Mrs Scanlon recognises that sometimes discretion is the better part

valour. One day, Jake will be recognised as a British hero.

And his child will know what he did for his country until then.

I just want some of my life back.

And now, gentlemen, if you'd be so good.

Yeah, all right, thanks for letting me know.

Custody Sergeant Davies.

Everybody topped himself.

Got it in one.

They took to him the route.

No one left to prosecute.

Well, there's no one with any real evidence against.

Queen and country, eh?

Makes you proud to be British.

Do you ever wonder why we bother?

No, not me, mate. It's a location.

Where are you going?

I'm going to get drunk, get laid, win the next one.

I'll have some of that.

Thank you.
