This programme
contains some scenes

which some viewers
may find upsetting

So, you said this is your
first time in Mumbai?

Yeah. Yeah, our first time.
You're going to love it.

There's so much
culture over here.

And, honestly, this
room is one of our best.

Oh, amazing!

You're going to absolutely
love it. Have a look at this.

Wow, it's incredible.
Wonderful, right?

It's amazing. Yeah, um...

Sorry, let me just, uh...

..let some light in here.

That's better.

We have a beautiful
garden outside.

You can take a walk in
it later, if you'd like.

Oh, have you got a tip?
Oh, yes. So, as I was saying,

you should definitely try
the street food in Mumbai.

You'd have to get used to
it, of course, but, um...

Sorry, this should
have been cleaned.

Here.

Sir, madam, I'm very sorry,
but I think you need to leave.

Uh... Er, why? What's going on? Just
please try to understand, madam.

Nothing's happening, sir.
Please, but I need... You OK?

I'm OK, sir... No, no, sir...
Oh, my God! What? What is it?

Please, no, no, no... Oh! No!

Would all remaining passengers

for East-West Airlines
flight number EV609

departure to London Heathrow

please proceed
directly to gate 43?

Hi, is this the
flight to London?

Yes. Ah, thank you.

It's simply not good enough.

So, how did the conference go?

Just like you
dreamed? Pretty much.

How was the
reaction? Any tears?

No-one snored, thank goodness!

And they asked
lots of follow-ups.

I even managed the
intro in Hindi.

Look at you!

Jet-setting multilingual expert

on immunohistochemical methods
to estimate time since death!

You deserve all the
free champagne you get!

Nine hours of
business-class bliss.

No phone calls,
no interruptions.

Can't wait to see you.

How about I pick you
up at the airport?

We could go for breakfast
at that place by the river.

Wow!

"Wow" good? "Wow" bad?

The answer to breakfast
with you will always be yes.

Well, I'm glad to hear that!

Hang on.

We regret to inform you of
a further one-hour delay

to our boarding to London Heathrow.

This is due to a
small technical issue.

Did you hear that?

Oh, dear.

Later breakfast?

I guess so.

I'll see you on the other side.

You better.

Bye.

Bye.

I presume you're not
smiling about the delay.

No. That was my fiance.

I'm still not used to it.

Well, it's a strange word.

I'm also not used to being
picked up at the airport.

Ah, it's good to have
someone waiting for you.

Yes.

Yes, it is.

Are you heading home?

Me? Yeah. I'm, uh...

Well, I've just been on
a bit of a walking tour.

I treated myself.

Sounds amazing.

Well, life's short, isn't it?

No-one in my family
tends to live that long,

so I just figured,
what the heck.

Words to live by.

Yeah.

You... you're in medicine
or something, aren't you?

Sorry, I couldn't
help overhearing.

Are you a doctor?

I'm Nikki.

Tony. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah, you meet all
sorts on a plane, don't you?

It kind of... gets
you close to people

you couldn't meet
any other place.

Yeah. Democracy in the air.

I was once on the same
flight as that Prince.

Well, at least I
think it was Prince -

he wore a balaclava
the whole way.

Yeah.

Are you travelling with anyone?

No. It's just me now.

Um, my, er, wife
died 18 months ago.

Cancer.

Oh. I'm sorry. Mm.

You'd have liked her. Val
was much nicer than me.

She'd have been saying,

"Leave the good
doctor alone, Tony,

"you're talking her legs off."

You're not doing that.

You're kind.

Like her.

She cared for everyone.

But, um, it's good to
have met you, Doctor.

You too, Tony.

Oh, she'd have loved
this, by the way.

See that? Business
class. First time.

You're probably used to it.

I wish!

Feel like we've done
the Himalayas now.

We should do a sort
of hot climate.

Maybe go to the
jungle or something...

Ladies and gentlemen,

flight EV609 is now
ready for boarding.

Business class, please make

your way through
the double doors

with your boarding passes ready.

Looks like we're good to go.

Are you OK?

Oh, me? Yeah! Yeah.

I think I am now.

It's time, isn't it?

Oh, sorry. Excuse me.

We'll brave it together.

Sorry. Sorry.

On behalf of the flight crew,
we would like to welcome you

on board this East-West
Airlines flight number EV609.

This is a polite reminder
that smoking is prohibited

for the duration of the flight.

Stow this for me, will you, please?

Yes, of course.

Please sit back, relax
and enjoy the flight.

Thanks.

Oh, don't crush
my hat, will you?

Don't worry, there's
plenty of room.

You don't need to
do that, you know.

That's what they're paid for.

This is your captain
Jodi Wright speaking.

Our flight time to
London tonight is

nine hours and five minutes.

We're expecting a
fairly smooth journey.

We ask that you please fasten
your seat belts at this time,

that your seats and table trays
are in the upright position,

and that you turn off all
personal electronic devices,

including laptops
and cellphones.

Thank you for choosing
East-West Airlines.

Your cabin crew
will now demonstrate

the safety instructions.

You know, all of that
was just a distraction.

If this plane goes down,

no amount of "brace, brace"

or blow-up belt and a
whistle is going to help you.

That's good to know.

Grant Townsend.

Nikki Alexander.

Have you been in Mumbai long?

Four days. Mm.
Just long enough.

You probably think it's,
uh, noisy but charming.

Thanks. I do love being reduced
to a tourist stereotype.

I-I was the same, at the start.

I've been in India a year.

The Indian government's
all in on biofuels.

Our UK plant has been
running for ten years now.

We were one of the first.

Berkshire Biofuels?

Berkshire?

I think I've heard of you.

Well, don't believe it all.

How are you today, Dr
Alexander? Fine, thanks.

Looking forward to
some peace and quiet.

Should I wake you for dinner?

Oh, don't you dare!

..that your seats and trays
are in the upright position

and that you turn off all
personal electronic devices,

including laptops
and cellphones.

Are you going to stare
at that blinking dot

for the next nine hours?

Eight and three quarters.
I'm not staring.

I barely glanced at it.

Time was you'd go
off on a conference

and they'd tag on a week's
cruise at the end of it.

Only way anyone could
get in touch with you was

via the ship's telegraph.

Oh, for the days
of overemployment

and inflated Home
Office expenses!

We're planning a wedding. We
need to keep in touch. Mm-hm.

There are a surprising amount
of details to iron out.

Nikki has quite a
few... opinions.

I did a postmortem on
a parrot once in India.

Of course you did. Murder?

No, no. Manslaughter,
ultimately.

Is there anywhere you don't
have a story about, Harriet?

Biggleswade.

I've never been to Biggleswade.

My loss, I hear.

Oh, come on, Mr
Lover Lover, go home.

Get some beauty sleep.

What passed for rumpled
Irish charm in your 20s

is more like crumpled
crisp packet at your age!

Crisp packet?! Yeah.

Cask-aged Irish malt, I'd say.

has turned off the
"fasten seat belt" signs.

For your continued safety,
East-West Airlines...

Dr Alexander?

Dr Alexander?

Yes?

Sorry, I was completely...

Are you OK?

Me? Yes, of course.
Um, it's just...

..we need a doctor,

and I knew you were
a doctor, so...

What's happened?

My cabin service
manager will brief you.

If you don't mind
coming with me?

Of course.

Are... you sure you
want to do this?

Are you insured?

Anything goes wrong,
it's you that's liable.

Thanks for your concern.

Please.

Er, hi. Hi.

Passenger complained
of stomach pains.

Now he says he's having
difficulty breathing.

Right.

It's a lot to ask, I know...

There really isn't another
doctor on the flight?

What's wrong? Well, you
are a doctor, right?

Well, yes, it's just that,
um... well, I haven't done

much clinical medicine
in a long time.

No-one else has come forward.

Maybe you can just
take a quick look.

OK.

Hello?

Tony! What's wrong?

What's he eaten?
What was in his meal?

The spinach and lentil
soup, and the lamb masala.

But... he didn't have much.

He did drink a lot of champagne.

Do you think you can move
back to your seat, Tony?

It might be a little
more comfortable.

Do you think it's the alcohol?

I'm not sure.

I don't think so.

No, don't dispose of it.

Keep it isolated,
put a bag around it.

We don't know what
we're dealing with yet.

Uh, Ms Tait, sorry
to disturb you.

We're just going to have to ask
you to change seat, please. OK.

Tony? Can you stand up?

Well done.

Can you sit here, Tony?

So they're turning
business class into A&E?

I'll be right next to you.

Your pulse is quite fast, Tony.

I need you to talk to me, OK?

Can you point to
where the pain is?

Is the pain just in that area or
does it go anywhere else? There!

Is it increasing or decreasing?

I don't know.

Don't worry. We're going
to see you through this.

I'll be right back.

You need to stop them
eating, just in case.

Business class meals are prepared
in a separate facility to Economy.

But if we single out Business...

There'll be bloodshed. Yeah.

I'll speak to the pilot.

She'll make an announcement.

What sort of announcement?

I've switched the seat belt
signs on as a precaution,

as there are reports of
heavy turbulence ahead.

Cabin crew, please collect
all dinner trays immediately.

All passengers are to
remain in their seats

while the seat belt
signs are illuminated.

Sir, we're just going to
have to take that... Sorry?

We're expecting turbulence.

You'll get a chance later.

Sorry, sir, we just need to
take these cos of turbulence.

Is everything all right? Yes,
it's just some turbulence.

What are you doing?!
I've barely started!

What's going on? Please,
stay seated, sir.

Your seat belt snug
in case of turbulence.

It's sudden, violent.

Seems gastric, food-related.

Maybe something he
had at the airport.

You help Mr Jenkins any
way you can, Dr Alexander.

We'll keep an eye on
the other passengers.

Specialist forensics only.

You've never had anything
like this before, Tony?

No food sensitivities,
allergies?

Did you eat or drink
anything at the airport

or your hotel,
before the flight?

Lunch at the hotel.

What's the name of your hotel?

Western. Uh, West... Westfield?

I can't remember.

That thing you said
at the airport,

that your family
don't live long.

Can you be more specific?

Is there some sort of genetic
illness in your family?

Ma'am, could you please
move from your seat?

Tony, we're giving
you some oxygen.

Just breathe normally.
This should help.

I think we need to look
in his hand luggage,

see if there's any
medication he's taken

that could have caused
this. Is that OK?

Please, do what you have to do.

What I need to do is
get him to a hospital.

If his condition deteriorates,

the pilot will get
him on the ground.

How much does he
need to deteriorate?

Captain Wright's been in touch
with the medical support team.

They're already preparing
diversion options.

Well, let's not waste any more
time. Get him on the ground.

I'm just playing
guessing games here.

Is this your daughter, Tony?

Is she waiting for
you back in England?

What's her name, Tony?

So far, no other passengers are
showing any signs of illness.

Fingers crossed, this
is an isolated incident.

I've brought more water.

I think he's stable for now.

If it is food poisoning, then
he might be able to sit it out.

You're worried.

We can't rule out
other factors -

something in the
air-filtration system.

Do you have any sort of
sensors for that kind of thing?

Only when more than one
passenger becomes overwhelmed

should we consider the
presence of something airborne.

What does that look like?

Most airborne pathogens present
like altitude sickness -

you start getting
drowsy, or elated,

and Mr Jenkins is neither.

You really don't have
another doctor on board?

I'd like to see the captain.

Er, she stays on the
flight deck, I'm afraid.

If this is some
kind of contaminant,

we can't let her get sick.

And post 9/11,

the door stays locked.
Well, of course,

but this isn't a terror attack.

Really? Look, we don't
know what this is yet.

A seemingly sick passenger
could be a cover for sleepers

looking to take over the plane.

That's crazy! Well,
it's happened before.

Doctor!

Here. I can take
this for you, Tony.

That's it.

We need to keep
you hydrated, Tony.

Please, just take a small sip.

Tony... Tony!

Tony! What the hell?!

Help me! Get him over,
into the recovery position.

Come on, Ade, you
know this stuff! Now!

Help me roll him on to his back.

All right, roll him over.

Put that away!

Here.

Are you OK?

Some guy's just vomited
blood everywhere.

Well, can food
poisoning do this?

This isn't food poisoning.

Then what?

Maybe a virus.

What? Like Zika, or
something like...?

Well, don't we need to mask up?

If the contamination
has already happened,

then, unfortunately,
PPE won't be much use.

Covid taught us that.

You're doing great, Ade.

This is what you're trained for,

and I can see
you're trained well.

We're just going to take
this step by step, OK?

But if it's... I don't
know what this is.

But I know someone
in London who will.

Can you get me in
contact with him?

We can sat-phone the airline,
see if they can set up a relay.

We can use the
phone in the galley.

His name's Jack Hodgson.
I'll give you his number.

We need all the help we can get.

TV: Scientists
have been studying

the effectiveness for years...

Leading theories suggest

that whilst the phenomena have
been occurring for hundreds,

maybe thousands of years,

there's no clear indication
as to how they started

or what caused them.

Jack Hodgson.

Are you Nikki Alexander's next of kin?

What?

What? Why? What's happened?

Is Nikki all right?

She's on a flight.
Is everything OK?

She's fine. I'm calling
from the airline.

Dr Alexander is helping
with a medical emergency

on the aircraft and she says
she could use your help.

Emergency?

What kind of emergency?

We got through to Jack
Hodgson but they can't link

ground communications
through to the galley.

Can't I just go
through to the cockpit,

use the comms from there?

Oh, 'course not. It's locked.

I really need to
talk to my colleague.

What do you want me to
do? Yell through the door?

Well, it's possible
Wi-Fi will kick back in.

Is there really no other way
for me to contact London?

You don't have a satellite
phone in the galley, or...?

Excuse me. Sorry.

Hi. Sorry, um, you're
climbers, right?

Yeah.

You've been in the Himalayas?

Yeah, three months. We
just did Nanda Devi.

It means "bliss-giving
goddess" in Sanskrit.

Great. Is everything all
right up there? Uh, yes.

We do have an unwell passenger,
but we're looking after him.

I was just wondering,

because you've been
up in the Himalayas,

do either of you happen to have
a satellite phone with you?

Oh, yeah, of course.

Latest spec, fully
LEO, high capacity,

low latency, IP55...

Amazing. Do you think I
could borrow it, please?

Yeah. Yeah. Um... Where is it?

He's been unwell for
around 90 minutes.

He's just thrown up blood.

That doesn't sound
like food poisoning.

I agree. They're saying they might
need to divert the plane, Jack.

Absolutely, get him to hospital.

What about you, Nikki?
How are you feeling?

I'm OK.

Really.

It's not me we need
to worry about.

Patient's name is
Anthony Jenkins.

Could you access
his medical records,

maybe get hold of someone who
could give us some background?

His wife has died, but I
think he has a young daughter.

Maybe he has some other
family that could help.

It's the middle of the night
here, but I'll get on it.

We need to find out where
he was staying in Mumbai.

He said his hotel was
the Western or West End -

something with West in it.

Right, I'll do a
search, make some calls.

Call me back on this number.

Jack!

It's 11 o'clock at night.
Its way past my bedtime!

Sorry, Harriet. Nikki was
adamant she needed your help.

Oh, wonderful!

I haven't had an all-nighter
since Acapulco, 2015!

It's like The Godfathers.

We're going to the mattresses!

Don't worry about Nikki.

She'll be all right, Jack.

You know she won't be
thinking about herself. Huh!

She'll be thinking about you.

That's why I'm sure
she'll be all right.

Dr Alexander, I've
someone who says

she might be able to help.

Um, Beth Tyler, um,
senior A&E staff nurse

at St Stephen's, Colchester.

I heard you talking
to the climbing guys,

it seemed serious.

Thanks, Beth.
Patient's name is Tony.

He's vomiting blood, his
heart rate is elevated.

Breathing shallow and irregular.

Um, right.

Uh... Well, blood
and raised heart rate

doesn't sound like
food poisoning.

I'm down to viral or a poison.

In Mumbai, I read about an
outbreak of Nipah virus in Kerala,

but that's 1,000 miles south.

Are you a virologist?

Forensic pathologist.

OK. Well, let's hope it
doesn't come to that.

Can I help you?!

I realise you're not supposed
to release guests' details,

but this is an emergency.

I'm just trying to find out
if Anthony Jenkins checked out

of your ho...

Shit!

What are you doing here this
time of night? Harriet called me.

She seemed quite excited, something
about a six-espresso all-nighter.

What's the deal? There are 75 hotels
in Mumbai with West in the name,

and none of them wants to tell me if
Tony Jenkins stayed there yesterday.

Is he the sick passenger? You think
he might have caught something

at his hotel? All I have is
a name and a passport number.

There's no crime, so I can't
access the national databases,

and Tony Jenkins is not
exactly a rare name.

Yeah. I had a geography
teacher called Mr Jenkins,

and he might have been a Tony,

but he would be at least 100 years
old by now. Thanks. That's helpful.

What if this is a virus, Kit...

..and not one of the nice ones?

The whole aircraft
filtration system is designed

to keep viruses out.

Fresh air, known as bleed
air, is taken directly

into the compressor systems
of the engine, here.

And then 250 degrees, hot,
compressed air is then fed

into the air-conditioning
packs. How do you know all this?

Well, it turns out that I have
an annoying capacity to remember

useless information which comes back
to me at times of acute necessity.

Viruses thrive even
at low humidity.

A plane would be a great
playground for them.

A 747 has ten HEPA filters.
Anything 0.1 micrometres

or above won't get through.
KIT: What size are viruses?

Flu is 0.1, Covid 0.16.

Ebola is anywhere
between 0.5 and 3.

We could be looking
at 400 passengers

going down with a deadly virus.

396 passengers on that
flight. I checked.

Tony Jenkins stayed in
the Westshore Hotel.

How do you know that? They texted
me back. There's more here.

A cleaner at the Westshore
Hotel was found dead.

The police are treating
it as suspicious.

His shirt was soaked with blood.

Have you ever seen anything
like this before? No.

No, not like this.

He's deteriorating.

Tony, can you hear
me? It's Beth.

Try to breathe normally.

We're going to help you...

..I promise.

Dr Alexander? I'm sorry,
we need you in the galley.

I've spoken to the pilot.
Are you sure we need to land?

I'm sure he's getting worse.
The problem is our flight path.

We've cleared Pakistani airspace.
So...? We're heading over Iran.

Can't we divert? Not a good
idea for a UK-registered airline

to suddenly divert into
an Iranian airfield.

Unless everyone's burning to
death, we don't go into a red area.

If we don't get him proper medical
care soon, he's going to die.

Still no idea
what's causing this?

We need to run blood
and virology tests,

and that's not happening
up here. No. No, it's not.

So, where can we land, then? Baku
in Azerbaijan looks the best bet.

It's 45 minutes at best,

maybe an hour by the time
we circle and touch down.

Is that going to work?
It has to, doesn't it?

Dr Alexander! Nikki!

Tony...

Oh, Tony... Tony...

Ohhh! Dr Alexander!

He's having a seizure.
Give him some space.

Tony!

OK. He's gone into cardiac
arrest. He's stopped breathing.

Is there a defib
machine on board?

Tony? Can you hear me,
Tony? Can you speak to me?

OK, everybody, please
clear the area.

Please, mate, come on. Do
you know where you are?

Move the passengers away, please.
Now! We have to make some space.

Clear to the back of
the cabin. Please. OK.

Come on, mate.

Tony! Come on. Come on, Tony.

They're on. OK. OK.

Call for help. Do
not touch the patient.

OK. Analysing
heart rhythm. OK.

Do not touch the patient.
Analysing heart rhythm.

Shock advised.

Clear head, clear waist,
clear feet. Stand clear.

Press the red shock button.

Shocking.

Shock delivered. Begin CPR.

Push hard to centre
of the chest.

Come on, Tony. Come on, Tony.

OK. He's breathing.

What's happening? Please?

You're back, Tony. It's OK.

I'm dying. I'm dying...

KIT: Let's look at the
timeline. The hotel cleaner

in Mumbai is found dead
at noon London time,

but the flight doesn't take off
for another seven and a half hours.

Tony Jenkins falls sick
two hours into the flight.

You think there was direct
transmission from the cleaner

to Jenkins? Doesn't suggest a virus.
The incubation period would be

at least a couple of days,
wouldn't it? We need the police

to escalate this. I'll get on to the
duty inspector at London Command.

I've been trying to
find the pathologist

on the Westshore cleaner case.

There were quite a lot of our
lot in India, but most of them

have retired... from
breathing, sadly.

The crime scene manager from
Nikki's Hillingdon case last year,

he said his brother was a
police inspector in Mumbai.

Maybe the brother could
get us to the pathologist.

What was that SOCO guy's name?
It's the middle of the night, Jack.

Sammy Chopra. Sammy...
is a bit of a raver.

It's Friday night, Kit.
I'm betting he's still up.

You think this
thing is contagious?

I'm sorry, we don't know
what we're dealing with yet.

Listen, the guy
is vomiting blood.

We need to be told. The
airline has a duty of care.

We're doing everything
we can, Mr Townsend.

Now, if you could just return to
your seat... This affects us all.

We have meetings, families.
We have lives to get back to.

Mr Townsend, please, the
pilot is in constant contact

with the medical support team in
London. We'll make an announcement

when we have more information.

I told you. I told you
not to get involved.

What were your findings, Dr Patel?

Initial observations indicate
no signs of blunt trauma,

no broken skin. There were
no indications of narcotics

or suspicious substances
in the hotel room.

I'll send bloods to
Toxicology and Histopathology,

but the way the labs are, it could
take several days to get results.

We don't have days. One
passenger is very sick,

and we have a plane full
of other potential victims.

I've asked for everything from
the hotel room to be bagged

and sent to my lab. I'll run
the preliminary tests myself

and keep you posted.
I've got an idea.

I have to speak to Nikki.

Hello. Nikki, it's me.
How's the patient?

He went into cardiac arrest.
They have a defib on board,

and he's currently stable, but
I'm not confident that will last.

Well, something's come
up, a death in Mumbai

that might connect to the
patient. The same hotel.

Now, I think that we're dealing
with some kind of pathogen,

maybe picked up in Mumbai
and maybe in the same hotel.

OK.

There's a plane full of people
here, Harriet. Yes, I know.

That's why I'm saying this. I
think that you should consider

doing a living autopsy.

What?

Is the patient able to
speak? Even a little?

Erm... Yes.

Maybe. When Litvinenko was
poisoned by the Russians,

it became very clear quite soon
we wouldn't be able to save him,

so it was agreed that we would
carry out a living autopsy,

with his consent, noting all the
signs and the symptoms we could,

in order to aid us in the
inevitable postmortem.

An attempt to understand
what he was dying of

while he was dying of
it? Nicely put, yes.

We can try.

How are you, Nikki? I'm fine.

Really. No symptoms. Good.
Well, take care of yourself,

for Jack as much
as for you. Bye.

I'm Dr Nikki Alexander,
and this is a record

of the symptoms of
Anthony Jenkins.

Mr Jenkins states that he's
suffering from acute internal pain.

Can you show me
where, please, Tony?

The pain appears to be in
the lower and upper abdomen

and the upper chest.
What is she doing?

It's good.

What's good, Tony? Good
that you record this.

Help others.

This is your captain speaking.
Due to a medical emergency

involving one of our
passengers, we will be diverting

to Lankaran International
Airport in Azerbaijan.

I've had clearance from
the Azerbaijani authorities

to make our approach.
I'm turning on...

This is bloody ridiculous!
..the fasten seat-belt signs,

as we'll be on the ground
in approximately 20 minutes.

We're landing, Tony. We're
getting you to hospital.

Thank you, Nikki.

They're diverting to an
airport in Azerbaijan.

Baku? They've got
great hospitals there.

My cousin got her dentals done
in Baku. I'm very happy for her.

It's not Baku, it's Lankaran,
near the Iranian border.

I spoke to the duty
commander. She's escalated

to the senior national coordinator,
who's talking to the Foreign Office.

They're worried. British
national possibly poisoned by

an unknown pathogen.
One dead in India,

possibly poisoned by
the same pathogen.

Feels like an international
incident to me.

Tony...

Tony?

Can you keep your eyes
open? Please. Focus on me.

Your daughter.

You want to see your
daughter again, don't you?

Yeah.

Here. Focus on her.

What's your
daughter's name, Tony?

It's Becky. It's Becky.

You'll see her soon.

Yes.

Where does she live?

They say a parent
shouldn't bury a child.

I hate that. Parents are
burying children every day.

Becky died?

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Good survival rates. Just...
just not... not for her.

I'm sorry, Tony.

Your wife and your
daughter died from cancer?

Becky first,

then Val a year later.

But I... I... I couldn't.

I couldn't. I wanted to live.

I found something to live for.

What was that?

A cause.

What cause, Tony?

Listen to me.

Listen. Uh-huh. Victor...

Vi...

Victor...

Vict... Who's Victor?

Victory.

What are you saying?
What victory?

Tony, we're landing.
Ten minutes.

We're here, Tony. You're
going to the hospital.

They're going to help you.

They're going to help you, Tony.

I... I failed.

Tony... Tony!

Tony! There's no pulse. Tony!

Quick, Beth.

No pulse. The defib, quick.

Call for help.

Do not touch the patient.

Do not touch the patient.
Analysing heart rhythm.

Do not touch the patient.

Do not touch the patient.
Analysing heart rhythm.

Shock advised. Clear head, clear
waist, clear feet. Stand clear.

Press the red shock button.

Shock delivered.

Begin CPR. Push hard and fast
in the centre of the chest.

Come on, Tony.
Come on, Tony...

Come on, Tony. Come on, Tony.

Come on, Tony.

Doctor?

Dr Alexander?

Nikki?

You're the only doctor on board.

Only you have the authority
to pronounce death.

OK. OK. OK.

The patient presents
no carotid pulse.

I am verifying life extinct.

Subject, Anthony Jenkins.

Time of death, 23:45 GMT,

on Flight EV609.

We need you back in your seat,
Nikki. We're landing now.

Ladies and gentlemen,
we are now landing

at Lankaran International Airport.
Please remain in your seats,

and the captain will be in
touch shortly with an update.

What?!

Er, it's protocol, Nikki.

This is just until the
authorities here disembark him.

We have to.

I couldn't help.

I'm sorry we put
you through this.

He was so excited
for the flight.

Not excited.

Euphoric, maybe.

He was doing something
he'd never done before.

You did everything you
could, Doctor. I saw.

We have to make sure they're
very careful with the body.

There has to be a full forensic
investigation. Will that happen

here, in Azerbaijan? Not
at home? I should think so.

The coroner in the UK
might want a second PM

once the body's
been repatriated.

So they'll find out exactly
what he died of, what caused it?

Sometimes we can't be definitive.
But you will with him, right?

I mean, his wife died,
and his daughter, too.

He was thinking of
them at the end.

Well, that never
leaves you. I mean...

They need to find out what
killed him. We owe him that.

Dr Alexander? Captain Wright.
Thank you for your efforts.

We have to notify the
Azerbaijani authorities.

That's what I'm doing. I'm going
to liaise with the ground staff.

We need to inform them that
this could be a CBRN event.

Chemical, biological,
radiological or nuclear material.

The thing is, Doctor, I need your
help to deplane the deceased.

What? They'll send a team
on board to do that, surely?

No, they won't. They weren't
expecting a dead body.

I told them we had
an unwell passenger.

They're not coming aboard.

They said airline personnel
only to disembark.

And you. They're not
coming for the body?

They're giving us a body bag.

They want us to carry the
passenger off the plane.

Jack? The Foreign Office
just told the police -

the patient, Tony, he
died on the plane. Oh, no.

Poor Nikki. Um...

Are they going to
stay in Azerbaijan?

Nikki stay with them,
help with the PM?

The police don't seem
to know much right now.

Maybe I should go out there.
Yeah, I should go out there.

Let's see, Jack. I'm in
touch with the airline,

the security coordinator's on it.
Do you know when they're doing

the postmortem in India? In
a few hours, I should think.

She's going to be OK, Jack.

Really?

You know that?

We're parked a long
way from the terminal.

How long is this
circus going to take?

I'm sorry, sir, I don't know.

We just need a little
more patience, please.

What's taking so long?

They're being cautious. I
would be, in their position.

They're not allowing the body
into the terminal. They're right.

They need to transport him
straight to a biosecure morgue.

They wanted to know a cause of
death. I said we don't have one.

Which is why they have to do a
postmortem as soon as possible.

We need to know what
killed Tony Jenkins.

Do they know about the
other death in Mumbai?

What other death? A hotel
cleaner. Same symptoms.

Shit!

Do I need to worry about my
other passengers, Dr Alexander?

I don't know.

Yes. I told you, until we
know what we're dealing with,

we should be concerned
for everyone here.

What's going on?

Hey! Hey!

They're heading to the
hold. Are we being deplaned?

They're saying there's no crime, so
the body has to continue to the UK.

No crime? But how
do they know that?

Because we couldn't confirm
otherwise. We have to take him home.

In the hold? They're serious?

They can't put the
body back on the plane!

Correct procedure
is to disembark

and do health checks on
every single passenger.

That is not going to happen. They
want us out of here. They say

no crime, so the body goes back
on the plane, goes back to the UK.

Hey! Nikki! Hey...
Nikki! You can't do this!

If this is a chemical or biological
agent or some kind of virus...

Nikki! What? I know you're
used to being in charge of

a situation like this, but
my duty is to my passengers,

and I have sole jurisdiction
over this aircraft.

We need to take off. But the
body... The body comes with us.

Please remain seated with
your seat belts fastened.

Hey! I want to speak
to the captain.

This is ridiculous. We all
need to get back to London.

You need to take care of the
live passengers, too, you know.

The captain is liaising
with the local authorities.

I'm sure we will have...
The local authorities?

Look, I have $5 billion
worth of business in Azer.

I'm getting off. No! Please.
Mr Townsend, our orders

are for all passengers to
remain on the airplane. Orders?

Is that right?

You never stop, do you? Eh?

What the hell's going
on?! Wait. I'm fine.

Don't touch me! Don't
touch me. I'm OK. I'm OK.

Do I need to call
the airport police?

No, she just... Any more trouble,
and my cabin crew will be

forced to restrain you.
Do I make myself clear?

Do you know how much business I
do with this airline, Captain?

Your threats are
entirely inappropriate.

Sit down, sir.

Now.

- Hello?
- Hey.

Are you OK? Jack...

He died, Jack. I
couldn't do anything.

I know. I'm so sorry.

It was just so bizarre. I
watched his vitals collapse,

no matter what we did. I don't
understand, Jack. What does that?

He was such a warm, gentle man.

Have the authorities found
anything on the body?

They haven't touched it.
They put him in the hold.

What?! On the plane? Your plane?
We're flying back to London.

Can you set Harriet up for the PM?
I don't want anyone else on this.

Please, Jack. Of course, but...
aren't they worried about contagion?

This is Captain Wright. We only have
a small window to get going here.

Please fasten your seat
belts for immediate take-off.

All trays and seats in
the upright position.

Table up, please. If you could do
up your seat belt, that'd be great.

What are they doing? Why are they
putting the body back in the hold?

Great, he's started again.
Who? Some guy convinced this is

his own private airline.

I've got to go, Jack.

OK. The app says you should
be home in six hours.

In time for breakfast.

I'll be there.

I know you will.

Thanks, Jack. OK. Bye.

Are we in any danger
from whatever he died of?

It's a fair question.
And, as I explained,

the captain needs us
to take off quickly.

Please, there's
no time right now.

Why did you bring the body back
on the plane if you don't know?

Huh? Are you crazy? You
tell me. You're a doctor.

What the hell is going on? This
has been terrible for everyone,

Mr Townsend. If you sit down for
take-off, I will talk to you calmly.

Don't tell me to be
calm! Please, sir.

Can you just take
your seat? Listen...

Don't you touch me.
I'll smash your face in.

The captain warned
you. Sit! Hey! Hands.

Hands!

Stay put, or I will tie
you to the seat. I mean it.

East-West Airlines thanks
you for your cooperation.

I'll see the bloody lot of
you fired. Especially you.

I'll buy this shitty
airline, if I have to.

Sorry, Dr Alexander.

If you don't mind, we need
you to fill out a report

for the UK authorities for
when we land. Of course.

In your own time.

It's called the vanishing
point, apparently.

It's where the Earth
and the sky meet.

I've always thought that's
where we go. You know...

..when the time comes.

I like that, Ade.

It's a nice thought.

Oh, God.

Not yet.

Oh, God...

Everything OK?

Hello? Do you need
some assistance?

Sorry. Oh... Yeah, I'm
fine, thanks. Right. OK.

Er, please...
