situation of persuading the people?
17
00:02:04,322 --> 00:02:05,623
Because it's very,
to put it mildly
18
00:02:05,625 --> 00:02:08,290
uncomfortable to go to war
with 73% against.
19
00:02:08,292 --> 00:02:11,194
TONY BLAIR: If people are being
asked today do you support a war,
20
00:02:11,196 --> 00:02:14,497
my answer to that
is we're not at war today.
21
00:02:14,499 --> 00:02:16,734
I think especially,
obviously, if the UN pass
22
00:02:16,736 --> 00:02:18,367
the second resolution,
as I believe they will
23
00:02:18,369 --> 00:02:20,837
if the inspectors carry on
saying he's not cooperating,
24
00:02:20,839 --> 00:02:22,772
I think public opinion
is in a different place.

war is not inevitable.

It depends on Saddam.

If he cooperates
with the inspectors,

00:02:32,318 --> 00:02:34,617
if he says
how much material he's got,
30
00:02:34,619 --> 00:02:36,552
if he cooperates fully
with them,
31

00:20:23,953 --> 00:20:25,421
There's no info
saying who sent it.
346
00:20:25,423 --> 00:20:27,125
This could have been
written by anyone.
347
00:20:28,658 --> 00:20:30,928
- That's who wrote it.
- Well.
348
00:20:32,128 --> 00:20:33,662
Frank Koza.
349
00:20:33,664 --> 00:20:36,565
- Who the fuck is Frank Koza?
- NSA.
350
00:20:36,567 --> 00:20:38,867
And this I know
because the letters NSA
351
00:20:38,869 --> 00:20:41,970
have been written on the back
with a leaky ballpoint.
352
00:20:41,972 --> 00:20:43,939
My source says
the header wasn't printed
353
00:20:43,941 --> 00:20:46,678
to protect the recipients
at GCHQ.
354
00:20:48,646 --> 00:20:49,711
When did you get it?
355
00:20:49,713 --> 00:20:51,114
- Two weeks ago.
- Two weeks?
356
00:20:51,116 --> 00:20:53,515
I gave it to The Mirror first.
Sorry.
357
00:20:53,517 --> 00:20:55,785
Jesus. Why didn't
they run it?
358
00:20:55,787 --> 00:20:58,020
- They thought it was fake.
- No shit.
359
00:20:58,022 --> 00:21:01,056
- Is your source NSA?
- No. A friend of the recipient.
360
00:21:01,058 --> 00:21:03,459
- A good friend.
- A friend of a friend?
361
00:21:03,461 --> 00:21:06,429
A good friend
of a trusted friend.
362
00:21:06,431 --> 00:21:07,696
I'm sure it's real.
363
00:21:07,698 --> 00:21:09,365
Then why don't you
write the story?
364
00:21:09,367 --> 00:21:10,932
Oh, come on, Martin.
365
00:21:10,934 --> 00:21:13,905
I'm anti-war.
You're with The Observer.
366
00:21:14,704 --> 00:21:16,907
Just check it out.

How may I assist you?
369
00:21:33,657 --> 00:21:34,923
Yes, hi, hello there.
370
00:21:34,925 --> 00:21:37,593
This is Martin Bright
from The Observer in London.
371
00:21:37,595 --> 00:21:39,362
Um, I'd like to arrange
an interview
372
00:21:39,364 --> 00:21:41,029
with Mr. Frank Koza.
373
00:21:41,031 --> 00:21:43,532
May I speak
to his office, please?
374
00:21:43,534 --> 00:21:46,669
- I'm sorry, Mr. Bright?
- Martin Bright, yes.
375
00:21:46,671 --> 00:21:48,170
Yes. Who did you wanna get?
376
00:21:48,172 --> 00:21:51,906
Frank Koza, "Chief of Staff,
Regional Targets."
377
00:21:51,908 --> 00:21:53,776
Mr. Bright, I'm afraid
we can't confirm
378
00:21:53,778 --> 00:21:55,911
the names of people
who work here.
379
00:21:55,913 --> 00:21:57,446
Could you give me
a little more detail
380
00:21:57,448 --> 00:21:59,080
about the story
you're working on?
381
00:21:59,082 --> 00:22:02,451
Uh, well, no. That's something
I need to talk to Mr. Koza
382
00:22:02,453 --> 00:22:03,855
about directly, I'm afraid.
383
00:22:05,723 --> 00:22:08,557
Well, then I'm afraid
I'm not sure I can help you.
384
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:09,825
When you have a little
more detail
385
00:22:09,827 --> 00:22:12,394
- please feel free to call back.
- (LINE DISCONNECTS)
386
00:22:12,396 --> 00:22:13,665
Yeah, well...
387
00:22:15,066 --> 00:22:16,598
Hello?
388
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,402
- You rang the NSA Press Office?
- Yeah.
389
00:22:19,404 --> 00:22:20,536
They have a press office.
390
00:22:20,538 --> 00:22:21,971
I thought that was
a good place to start.
391
00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:23,205
But you didn't
tell them anything?
392
00:22:23,207 --> 00:22:25,607
No, Peter.
I just asked for Frank Koza.
393
00:22:25,609 --> 00:22:27,076
Because if this is real,
you could go to jail
394
00:22:27,078 --> 00:22:29,978
just for having it
in your possession.
395
00:22:29,980 --> 00:22:31,814
MARTIN: I'm not letting this go.
It's too good a story.
396
00:22:31,816 --> 00:22:33,215
PETER: I agree,
but if you get it wrong
397
00:22:33,217 --> 00:22:35,417
it will sink you,
it will sink the paper.
398
00:22:35,419 --> 00:22:37,586
I'd like to get a credible
intelligence expert
399
00:22:37,588 --> 00:22:39,321
to offer a view
on the language.
400
00:22:39,323 --> 00:22:41,289
- Yeah.
- And I thought you could run it by
401
00:22:41,291 --> 00:22:42,793
your MI6 contact?
402
00:22:43,761 --> 00:22:45,761
- I don't have a MI6 contact.
- Sorry.
403
00:22:45,763 --> 00:22:47,831
I meant your
tennis club friend.
404
00:22:49,066 --> 00:22:49,964
Sure.
405
00:22:49,966 --> 00:22:51,799
I'll take it
to Admiral Wilkinson.
406
00:22:51,801 --> 00:22:53,634
Be careful.
Before we risk
407
00:22:53,636 --> 00:22:55,470
a D-notice
against publication
408
00:22:55,472 --> 00:22:59,275
I'd actually like confirmation
that Frank Koza exists.
409
00:22:59,277 --> 00:23:00,742
Do you think
it's authentic?
410
00:23:00,744 --> 00:23:02,478
Well, certainly
the words he used,
411
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,180
"TOPI," for example,
412
00:23:04,182 --> 00:23:05,981
few outside
of the security apparatus
413
00:23:05,983 --> 00:23:07,249
would know
what that means.
414
00:23:07,251 --> 00:23:08,384
What does it mean?
415
00:23:08,386 --> 00:23:10,452
Target of
primary interest.
416
00:23:10,454 --> 00:23:13,922
And this term,
"QRC surge effort,"
417
00:23:13,924 --> 00:23:15,457
that's NSA military speak
418
00:23:15,459 --> 00:23:19,228
for significant intensification
of surveillance operations.
419
00:23:19,230 --> 00:23:22,196
And this, where they ask
for "valuable information
420
00:23:22,198 --> 00:23:26,301
"from accesses
in your product lines..."
421
00:23:26,303 --> 00:23:29,438
...product lines
are intelligence sources.
422
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:30,739
So it's been
written by someone
423
00:23:30,741 --> 00:23:32,374
who's familiar
with security speak
424
00:23:32,376 --> 00:23:34,409
but that doesn't mean
it's definitely NSA.
425
00:23:34,411 --> 00:23:36,979
True, but there are no
obvious amateur mistakes.
426
00:23:36,981 --> 00:23:39,751
- Have you heard of Frank Koza?
- No.
427
00:23:41,985 --> 00:23:45,453
Paul, if we, if we wanted
to confirm that he exists...
428
00:23:45,455 --> 00:23:47,789
(CHUCKLES) Oh, sorry.
I couldn't help you do that.
429
00:23:47,791 --> 00:23:49,090
Yeah, but if we wanted
to confirm that he...
430
00:23:49,092 --> 00:23:51,862
Well, my own sources
wouldn't ever trust me again.
431
00:23:52,797 --> 00:23:54,031
Understood.
432
00:23:55,566 --> 00:23:56,665

Are you on speaker?
439
00:24:08,945 --> 00:24:10,412
We are now. Hey...
440
00:24:10,414 --> 00:24:13,414
Peter, you need to tell Roger
to publish what I'm filing.
441
00:24:13,416 --> 00:24:16,419
This paper can't be seen
to be supporting a war
442
00:24:16,421 --> 00:24:18,287
that we should be doing
everything in our power
443
00:24:18,289 --> 00:24:19,521
to expose as a con.
444
00:24:19,523 --> 00:24:21,891
A neocon.
A giant fucking con!
445
00:24:21,893 --> 00:24:23,992
Ed, that's why we're phoning.
We need your help.
446
00:24:23,994 --> 00:24:26,429
We have something
that might corroborate
447

you could say.

00:24:42,713 --> 00:24:44,578
Lunch. Eat.
Now. Yes.

00:24:44,580 --> 00:24:47,281
Oh, no,
I'm fine, thanks.

It, um...
455
00:24:51,055 --> 00:24:53,321
This new BBC poll,
it says that less than one in ten people
456
00:24:53,323 --> 00:24:57,026
think it's right to attack
Iraq without a UN resolution.
457
00:24:57,028 --> 00:24:59,862
Which is why that memo was sent.
They need to twist arms.

it will make any difference.
459

is against them.

Oh, well, then that's odd.

I'm sorry, but I'll need

Do you have
an extension number?

Ah...

00:25:34,499 --> 00:25:36,365
Nah.

480
00:25:47,377 --> 00:25:51,247
PETER: So I read the weapons
inspector's report.
481
00:25:51,249 --> 00:25:53,115
JACQUELINE:
Oh, congratulations.
482
00:25:53,117 --> 00:25:55,284
That's more
than most MP's ever done.
483
00:25:55,286 --> 00:25:58,185
- Well, shit, that's depressing.
- Mmm-hmm. It is.
484
00:25:58,187 --> 00:26:00,422
Look, there are a few
pre-98 chemical weapons
485
00:26:00,424 --> 00:26:02,391
we have yet to be accounted
for but inspectors said
486
00:26:02,393 --> 00:26:04,058
they found absolutely
no evidence
487
00:26:04,060 --> 00:26:06,394
of an active chemical
or biological program.
488
00:26:06,396 --> 00:26:07,462
Correct.
489
00:26:07,464 --> 00:26:08,529
And yet Colin Powell presented
490
00:26:08,531 --> 00:26:10,164
clear evidence of mobile labs.
491
00:26:10,166 --> 00:26:13,602
His evidence may be based
on poor human intel
492
00:26:13,604 --> 00:26:15,237
from an Iraqi dissident.
493
00:26:15,239 --> 00:26:16,105
Really?
494
00:26:16,107 --> 00:26:17,205
The dissident
isn't our product
495
00:26:17,207 --> 00:26:19,076
and should not be seen
as our product.
496
00:26:20,610 --> 00:26:22,213
Whose product is he then?
497
00:26:24,248 --> 00:26:27,415
Look, Peter,
I didn't say this,
498
00:26:27,417 --> 00:26:29,951
but there is concern
in certain quarters
499
00:26:29,953 --> 00:26:33,122
that intelligence
may be being manipulated
500
00:26:33,124 --> 00:26:35,024
to take this country to war.
501
00:26:35,026 --> 00:26:36,959
So why don't you tell
your journalists
502
00:26:36,961 --> 00:26:39,161
to stop being so bloody loyal
to Downing Street
503
00:26:39,163 --> 00:26:41,098
and start doing their job?
504
00:26:42,867 --> 00:26:44,068
Okay.
505
00:26:47,870 --> 00:26:50,705
Okay, what if I had
evidence that the NSA
506
00:26:50,707 --> 00:26:53,742
requested GCHQ to help
monitor private communications
507
00:26:53,744 --> 00:26:56,076
of the UN Security Council
delegates?
508
00:26:56,078 --> 00:26:57,880
- To what end?
- Bluntly?
509
00:26:57,882 --> 00:27:00,082
To blackmail them
into voting for war.
510
00:27:00,084 --> 00:27:01,717
I'm not with GCHQ.
511
00:27:01,719 --> 00:27:03,551
You're MI6,
you're on the same team.
512
00:27:03,553 --> 00:27:04,618
How did you
hear about this?
513
00:27:04,620 --> 00:27:06,421
A UN resolution for war
514
00:27:06,423 --> 00:27:08,891
would cover everyone's arse,
wouldn't it?
515
00:27:08,893 --> 00:27:11,792
No more asking your team
to sex up evidence of WMDs
516
00:27:11,794 --> 00:27:14,930
or the back-dodgy claims that
Britain was about to be attacked
517
00:27:14,932 --> 00:27:16,965
by Iraq within 45 minutes.
518
00:27:16,967 --> 00:27:19,067
And no chance of anyone
being charged with a war crime
519
00:27:19,069 --> 00:27:21,004
if it all goes tits up.
520
00:27:22,405 --> 00:27:23,838
What are you
asking me, Peter?
521
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,909
I'm asking
if you can confirm
522
00:27:26,911 --> 00:27:30,546
whether the NSA
instructed GCHQ
523
00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:33,617
to assist in spying on
Security Council delegates?
524
00:27:34,652 --> 00:27:37,318
You know I can't
answer that.
525
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,954
To do so would put me in breach
of the Official Secrets Act.
526
00:27:39,956 --> 00:27:42,459
To deny it would not.
527
00:27:44,328 --> 00:27:48,266
Well, I can neither confirm
nor deny.
528
00:27:52,469 --> 00:27:53,471
Okay.
529
00:27:54,672 --> 00:27:55,740
Let's play.
530
00:27:56,941 --> 00:27:59,277
- Change ends, idiot.
- Yes.
531
00:28:01,044 --> 00:28:02,611
Your serve.
532
00:28:02,613 --> 00:28:05,614
ED: So the head of the CIA
tells Bush it's a slam dunk
533
00:28:05,616 --> 00:28:08,782
that Saddam has weapons
of mass destruction.
534
00:28:08,784 --> 00:28:10,685
- A slam dunk.
- Yes.
535
00:28:10,687 --> 00:28:12,654
- And that's not true?
- No.
536
00:28:12,656 --> 00:28:15,289
Meaning Saddam definitely
does not have weapons
537
00:28:15,291 --> 00:28:17,459
of mass destruction
or he may not.
538
00:28:17,461 --> 00:28:21,028
Meaning the intelligence
is sketchy at best
539
00:28:21,030 --> 00:28:22,798
and manufactured at worst.
540
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,999
And Tenet knows that?
541
00:28:25,001 --> 00:28:27,702
I've no doubt he knows that.
542
00:28:27,704 --> 00:28:29,871
I was with
the agency 24 years.
543
00:28:29,873 --> 00:28:33,541
I can tell you, folks over there
are really angry about this.
544
00:28:33,543 --> 00:28:35,277
Why?
545
00:28:35,279 --> 00:28:36,510
Why?
546
00:28:36,512 --> 00:28:38,513
Because the majority
of the analysts do not believe
547
00:28:38,515 --> 00:28:41,618
it's a slam dunk,
but no one wants to hear that.
548
00:28:42,519 --> 00:28:44,352
Not even the press.
549
00:28:44,354 --> 00:28:47,088
- Sorry, Mel.
- I'm sorry.
550
00:28:47,090 --> 00:28:48,658
I'm just mad as hell.
551
00:28:50,461 --> 00:28:51,993
Listen, I wanted
to talk to you today
552
00:28:51,995 --> 00:28:55,897
because I think I might finally
be onto something that...
553
00:28:55,899 --> 00:28:59,968
...that really support what
you've been saying for months.
554
00:28:59,970 --> 00:29:02,440
I need to talk to a man
called Frank Koza.
555
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:07,375
He's NSA.
556
00:29:07,377 --> 00:29:09,280
Head of Regional Targets.
557
00:29:11,749 --> 00:29:12,817
You know him?
558
00:29:15,019 --> 00:29:17,085
I'm sorry, Ed.
559
00:29:17,087 --> 00:29:19,589
I can't give out
that kind of information.
560
00:29:41,846 --> 00:29:43,412
- What are you doing here?
- I'm sorry.
561
00:29:43,414 --> 00:29:44,880
- I didn't wanna call.
- How long have you been here?
562
00:29:44,882 --> 00:29:46,548
We're not supposed
to be meeting.
563
00:29:46,550 --> 00:29:48,482
I know, I've just...
564
00:29:48,484 --> 00:29:51,019
I've been following the news
and I haven't seen
565
00:29:51,021 --> 00:29:52,688
or heard anything
for three weeks.
566
00:29:52,690 --> 00:29:54,155
Okay, well,
I've given it to my contact
567
00:29:54,157 --> 00:29:55,857
and apparently,
she's having a very hard time
568
00:29:55,859 --> 00:29:58,463
getting the papers to
believe that it's not a fake.
569
00:30:00,430 --> 00:30:02,233
Oh, uh...
570
00:30:02,966 --> 00:30:05,800
Well, maybe that's okay.
571
00:30:05,802 --> 00:30:07,001
You know, I...
572
00:30:07,003 --> 00:30:08,170
Look, I mean,
all of the polls said
573
00:30:08,172 --> 00:30:09,471
everyone's against
the war, anyway
574
00:30:09,473 --> 00:30:11,874
and I, and I've
just been thinking...
575
00:30:11,876 --> 00:30:15,109
Look, I think
that I acted too rashly
576
00:30:15,111 --> 00:30:16,444
on impulse.
I didn't think...
577
00:30:16,446 --> 00:30:18,113
Jesus, Katharine,
is it a fake?
578
00:30:18,115 --> 00:30:19,615
Of course it's not a fake.
It's real.
579
00:30:19,617 --> 00:30:21,083
Well, then just go home!
580
00:30:21,085 --> 00:30:24,419
Okay, don't talk about this
to anyone, ever!
581
00:30:24,421 --> 00:30:25,490
Just...
582
00:30:27,424 --> 00:30:30,261
- Sorry.
- It's out of our hands now.
583
00:30:32,128 --> 00:30:33,330
Sorry.
584
00:30:35,299 --> 00:30:38,400
The truth is,
the whole document could be a fake.
585
00:30:38,402 --> 00:30:41,135
But we're satisfied
the language used is real.
586
00:30:41,137 --> 00:30:42,772
- It's fascinating.
- Yeah.
587
00:30:45,242 --> 00:30:47,942
Is this document actually
in your possession?
588
00:30:47,944 --> 00:30:50,211
Well, if it were, I'd be in
breach of the Official Secrets Act
589
00:30:50,213 --> 00:30:51,645
wouldn't I?
590
00:30:51,647 --> 00:30:53,314
(BOTH LAUGH)
591
00:30:53,316 --> 00:30:55,049
So based on what might be
in this document...
592
00:30:55,051 --> 00:30:56,652
- That you don't have.
- That I don't yet have.
593
00:30:56,654 --> 00:30:58,319
But that you want
to print in your paper.
594
00:30:58,321 --> 00:31:00,654
If you don't issue a
D-notice against publication.
595
00:31:00,656 --> 00:31:02,156
Well, which I will
most certainly do
596
00:31:02,158 --> 00:31:04,392
if I think the publication
might in any way
597
00:31:04,394 --> 00:31:06,294
endanger the lives
of British people
598
00:31:06,296 --> 00:31:08,096
or British forces.
599
00:31:08,098 --> 00:31:09,897
- Understood.
- Good.
600
00:31:09,899 --> 00:31:11,700
(CHUCKLES)
601
00:31:11,702 --> 00:31:12,703
Go on.
602
00:31:14,003 --> 00:31:16,003
Would you say
it were likely real
603
00:31:16,005 --> 00:31:18,039
or a forgery?
604
00:31:18,041 --> 00:31:20,241
What do you think?
605
00:31:20,243 --> 00:31:22,176
I think it could be a fake
606
00:31:22,178 --> 00:31:24,548
put out
by the anti-war movement...
607
00:31:25,682 --> 00:31:28,584
...or by a foreign agency
to embarrass the US.
608
00:31:28,586 --> 00:31:31,720
- Which agency?
- The Russians.
609
00:31:31,722 --> 00:31:33,355
I mean, the French
oppose the war, too,
610
00:31:33,357 --> 00:31:34,823
but I don't think
they'd do this.
611
00:31:34,825 --> 00:31:37,491
I think you might be
overthinking it as usual, Martin.
612
00:31:37,493 --> 00:31:40,530
- Meaning?
- You tell me.
613
00:31:41,999 --> 00:31:44,868
Well, meaning it could be
exactly what it says it is.
614
00:31:48,205 --> 00:31:50,505
You know, Martin,
I believe that all information
615
00:31:50,507 --> 00:31:53,978
collected in the name of the
public should be made public.
616
00:31:55,412 --> 00:31:58,113
The only question is, when.
617
00:31:58,115 --> 00:32:02,151
But in this case,
I don't have the luxury of time, Admiral.
618
00:32:02,153 --> 00:32:04,555
Powell just made
a very strong case for war.
619
00:32:05,255 --> 00:32:06,656
Yes, I see.
620
00:32:10,828 --> 00:32:13,561
I have also always believed
621
00:32:13,563 --> 00:32:16,431
that censorship
when called for
622
00:32:16,433 --> 00:32:20,605
should be based
on security issues alone...
623
00:32:22,239 --> 00:32:23,570
...not on whether
a news report
624
00:32:23,572 --> 00:32:25,508
might embarrass
a government.
625
00:32:30,146 --> 00:32:31,348
Thank you, Admiral.
626
00:32:32,649 --> 00:32:35,584
EDIE: (ON SPEAKER) Ed,
it's Edie from the London office.
627
00:32:35,586 --> 00:32:37,352
I got a weird message for you
628
00:32:37,354 --> 00:32:39,121
from someone
who wouldn't give his name.
629
00:32:39,123 --> 00:32:42,691
He said you should call
extension 6727.
630
00:32:42,693 --> 00:32:45,759
Makes no sense to me,
but maybe to you.
631
00:32:45,761 --> 00:32:48,529
6727. Good luck.
632
00:32:48,531 --> 00:32:49,931
- 6727.
- Bye-bye.
633
00:32:49,933 --> 00:32:53,971
6727. 6727. 6727.
634
00:32:55,271 --> 00:32:56,807
(BUTTONS BEEPING)
635
00:32:59,876 --> 00:33:01,309
6727.
636
00:33:01,311 --> 00:33:04,413
(LINE RINGING)
637
00:33:04,415 --> 00:33:06,614
OPERATOR: NSA.
How may I direct your call?
638
00:33:06,616 --> 00:33:10,285
Hello.
Extension 6727, please.
639
00:33:10,287 --> 00:33:12,086
6727?
640
00:33:12,088 --> 00:33:14,021
6727, yes.
641
00:33:14,023 --> 00:33:15,025
One moment.
642
00:33:17,293 --> 00:33:18,695
SECRETARY:
Frank Koza's office.
643
00:33:20,496 --> 00:33:22,931
Hello, may I speak
to Mr. Frank Koza, please?
644
00:33:22,933 --> 00:33:23,798
Who shall I say is calling?
645
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,334
I can't say.
Just put me through.
646
00:33:26,336 --> 00:33:27,538
Yes, sir.
647
00:33:29,706 --> 00:33:30,840
KOZA: Hello?
648
00:33:32,509 --> 00:33:35,243
Mr. Koza? Mr. Frank Koza?
649
00:33:35,245 --> 00:33:37,612
Yes. Who's calling?
650
00:33:37,614 --> 00:33:39,647
Mr. Koza,
my name is Ed Vulliamy.
651
00:33:39,649 --> 00:33:42,451
I work for The Observer
newspaper in London.
652
00:33:42,453 --> 00:33:45,990
I wanted to ask you about
a memo you sent to GCHQ.
653
00:33:49,925 --> 00:33:51,095
Mr. Koza?
654
00:33:52,928 --> 00:33:55,029
(LINE DISCONNECTS)
655
00:33:55,031 --> 00:33:58,400
- Do you think this is real?
- ED: (ON PHONE) Yes, they put me through.
656
00:33:58,402 --> 00:34:00,001
- To Frank Koza?
- Yes.
657
00:34:00,003 --> 00:34:02,104
And you spoke to him
directly, right, Ed?
658
00:34:02,106 --> 00:34:04,838
Well, we didn't exactly
have a conversation.
659
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,241
Did you speak to him or not?
Yes or no, Ed? Jesus.
660
00:34:07,243 --> 00:34:08,442
Yes, but he cut me off
661
00:34:08,444 --> 00:34:09,810
when I said I worked
for The Observer.
662
00:34:09,812 --> 00:34:12,814
But you're sure that he
exists, right, Ed?
663
00:34:12,816 --> 00:34:14,082
Hell yes, I'm sure!
664
00:34:14,084 --> 00:34:17,319
I said, "Mr. Koza?"
He said, "Yes, who's calling?"
665
00:34:17,321 --> 00:34:18,852
All right. Thank you, Ed.
666
00:34:18,854 --> 00:34:21,223
Try not to fuck
this one up, Roger.
667
00:34:21,225 --> 00:34:23,091
- Fuck off.
- You're welcome, anytime.
668
00:34:23,093 --> 00:34:24,095
(CHUCKLES)
669
00:34:25,095 --> 00:34:27,696
- KAMAL: Hitler Diaries.
- What?
670
00:34:27,698 --> 00:34:30,098
I'm just saying it smells of a
forgery like the Hitler Diaries
671
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:32,167
and, of course,
publishing those cost people their jobs.
672
00:34:32,169 --> 00:34:33,634
Which is precisely
why we're doing
673
00:34:33,636 --> 00:34:36,203
rigorous checking
on this, Kamal.
674
00:34:36,205 --> 00:34:38,339
- Who brought you this?
- Friend.
675
00:34:38,341 --> 00:34:40,341
- Someone from GCHQ?
- No.
676
00:34:40,343 --> 00:34:41,811
Then who?
677
00:34:44,747 --> 00:34:47,549
- Yvonne Ridley.
- ROGER: Yvonne fucking Ridley!
678
00:34:47,551 --> 00:34:49,651
The woman who fell off
a donkey in Afghanistan
679
00:34:49,653 --> 00:34:51,319
at some Taliban checkpoint!
680
00:34:51,321 --> 00:34:53,120
Her arse over a tit
with a camera up her burka
681
00:34:53,122 --> 00:34:54,388
and then she
converted to Islam
682
00:34:54,390 --> 00:34:55,823
after she was released
by her kidnapper.
683
00:34:55,825 --> 00:34:57,459
None of which means
she's not right!
684
00:34:57,461 --> 00:34:58,660
She's anti-war!
685
00:34:58,662 --> 00:35:01,162
She probably typed
the fucking thing herself.
686
00:35:01,164 --> 00:35:03,665
JAN: Martin, you realize the
legal risks we'll be taking?
687
00:35:03,667 --> 00:35:04,799
Yes.
688
00:35:04,801 --> 00:35:05,966
JAN: The last time we
published anything like this
689

our source claimed

MI6 had funded an attempted
assassination on Gaddafi.
692

remotely like that.

No, it merely suggests
that the US government,
695
00:35:19,048 --> 00:35:22,616
with the help of Great Britain,
might try to twist arms
696
00:35:22,618 --> 00:35:25,653

into voting for a war in Iraq.

both governments,

that it poses a security risk

The peace memorial?
867
00:46:15,037 --> 00:46:17,274
To the people
killed by the atomic bomb?
868
00:46:19,042 --> 00:46:20,808
Yes, actually, I did.
869
00:46:20,810 --> 00:46:21,845
It's, uh...
870
00:46:23,412 --> 00:46:24,745
It's something
you really have to see.
871
00:46:24,747 --> 00:46:26,149
It's very moving.
872
00:46:28,450 --> 00:46:31,718
Compels one to think
about the consequences of war,
873
00:46:31,720 --> 00:46:33,888
doesn't it?
874
00:46:33,890 --> 00:46:37,424
- Yes, I suppose it does.
- Are you anti-war, Katharine?
875
00:46:37,426 --> 00:46:38,558
No.
876
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:41,765
Uh, I think
sometimes war is necessary.
877
00:46:46,903 --> 00:46:49,002
I see you lived in Taiwan
as a child?
878
00:46:49,004 --> 00:46:51,205
- Yes.
- How long did you live there?
879
00:46:51,207 --> 00:46:53,040
We moved over
when I was three.
880
00:46:53,042 --> 00:46:55,308
I came back
to do my A-levels.
881
00:46:55,310 --> 00:46:56,678
So for most
of your childhood then?
882
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:57,681
Yes.
883
00:46:59,115 --> 00:47:00,781
You had
a religious upbringing?
884
00:47:00,783 --> 00:47:02,015
No, not particularly.
885
00:47:02,017 --> 00:47:03,149
But were you sent away
886
00:47:03,151 --> 00:47:05,386
to a Christian missionary
school in Taiwan?
887
00:47:05,388 --> 00:47:06,419
Yes.
888
00:47:06,421 --> 00:47:08,388
Gave you a clear sense
of right and wrong, did it,
889
00:47:08,390 --> 00:47:09,624
being in a mission school?
890
00:47:09,626 --> 00:47:10,991
I think my parents
gave me that.

892
00:47:12,127 --> 00:47:13,463
Did you leak
the Koza e-mail?
893
00:47:14,698 --> 00:47:15,997
- No.
- No?
894
00:47:15,999 --> 00:47:17,200
No.
895
00:47:19,234 --> 00:47:20,700
- But you read it?
- Yes.
896
00:47:20,702 --> 00:47:23,270
I mean, it was sent to me,
so I read it.
897
00:47:23,272 --> 00:47:25,908
What were your immediate
thoughts after you read it?
898
00:47:27,142 --> 00:47:28,709
Nothing much.
It didn't really bother me.
899
00:47:28,711 --> 00:47:30,847
- It didn't?
- No.
900
00:47:33,249 --> 00:47:35,651
Who do you think
might have leaked it?
901
00:47:39,821 --> 00:47:42,122
- I have no idea.
- No?
902
00:47:42,124 --> 00:47:44,024
- No.
- No?
903
00:47:44,026 --> 00:47:45,227
No.

Okay. Just eat a little.

report in The Observer newspaper

in London, a memo
929
00:49:27,162 --> 00:49:30,698
reported to be from a man
who actually works at the NSA
930
00:49:30,700 --> 00:49:34,634
in which he describes
a "surge in surveillance

"of UN Security Council

The Americans are refusing to
admit that the memo was real.

- I have to tell the truth.
- No.

away with saying it was a fake.

1043

I gather intelligence
1044
00:57:34,316 --> 00:57:38,419
so that the government can
protect the British people.
1045
00:57:38,421 --> 00:57:41,687
I do not gather intelligence
so that the government can lie
1046
00:57:41,689 --> 00:57:43,425
to the British people.
1047
00:57:45,926 --> 00:57:48,662
With respect, Mrs. Gun,
1048
00:57:48,664 --> 00:57:50,332
you're a spy.
1049
00:57:51,133 --> 00:57:51,999
Yes.
1050
00:57:52,001 --> 00:57:53,066
You gather information
1051
00:57:53,068 --> 00:57:54,834
from people's phones
and computers
1052
00:57:54,836 --> 00:57:56,837
and you feed that
to your clients.
1053
00:57:56,839 --> 00:58:00,506
- Yes.
- You eavesdrop on private conversations.
1054
00:58:00,508 --> 00:58:02,676
And now you're upset
at being asked to do that
1055
00:58:02,678 --> 00:58:04,544
to members
of the Security Council?
1056
00:58:04,546 --> 00:58:06,247

1057

00:58:10,318 --> 00:58:13,486
that could help
prevent a terror attack.
1059
00:58:13,488 --> 00:58:17,790
What I object to is being
asked to gather intelligence
1060
00:58:17,792 --> 00:58:20,894
to help fix a vote at the UN
1061
00:58:20,896 --> 00:58:23,932
and deceive the world
into going to war.
1062
00:58:27,537 --> 00:58:30,169
- Who put you up to this?
- No one.
1063
00:58:30,171 --> 00:58:31,805

to someone.
1064
00:58:31,807 --> 00:58:34,241
Who did you give it to?
A journalist?
1065
00:58:34,243 --> 00:58:37,211

movement?
1066

My husband had absolutely
nothing to do with this.

He was briefly detained
here, too, wasn't he?

- Pending deportation?
- Yes, he was.
1072
00:58:49,624 --> 00:58:52,359
- And then you married him.
- Yes.
1073
00:58:52,361 --> 00:58:54,326
His paperwork
has been resubmitted.
1074
00:58:54,328 --> 00:58:56,566
- He signs in here once a week.
- He's a Muslim.
1075
00:58:58,566 --> 00:58:59,633
I'm sorry?
1076
00:58:59,635 --> 00:59:01,368
TINTIN: He's a Kurdish Turk
1077
00:59:01,370 --> 00:59:04,437
seeking permanent residence
in Britain.
1078
00:59:04,439 --> 00:59:08,140
And given what Saddam Hussein
has done to the Kurdish people,
1079
00:59:08,142 --> 00:59:12,379
murdering over 180,000 of
them with chemical weapons,
1080

I can assure you
1081

my husband has absolutely
no sympathy whatsoever
1082
00:59:16,752 --> 00:59:17,884
with the Iraqi regime.
1083
00:59:17,886 --> 00:59:19,153
Then why did you
leak a memo
1084
00:59:19,155 --> 00:59:22,388
intended to help
remove Saddam Hussein?
1085
00:59:22,390 --> 00:59:23,490

Saddam Hussein,

1116
01:00:45,673 --> 01:00:48,542

The Attorney General
Lord Goldsmith
1123

has, I understand,
told the Prime Minister
1124
01:01:05,193 --> 01:01:08,461
military action would be legal
without a second resolution.

1213
01:06:05,225 --> 01:06:08,263
Do you want to tell us
who you gave it to?
1214
01:06:11,098 --> 01:06:13,200
Look,
1215
01:06:13,202 --> 01:06:17,037
if you don't mind,
I would prefer not to say.
1216
01:06:17,039 --> 01:06:18,640
I promised I wouldn't.
1217
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,375
Okay.
1218
01:06:21,377 --> 01:06:24,310
When you met Yasar, he had
already applied for asylum.
1219
01:06:24,312 --> 01:06:26,645
- Yes.
- Which was denied.
1220
01:06:26,647 --> 01:06:30,415
Yes, uh, they said that there
wasn't a significant enough risk
1221
01:06:30,417 --> 01:06:32,386
of persecution
if he went back.
1222
01:06:32,388 --> 01:06:34,087
And that's when
you married him?
1223
01:06:34,089 --> 01:06:36,189
- Yes.
- And did he pay you?
1224
01:06:36,191 --> 01:06:37,390
Absolutely not.
1225
01:06:37,392 --> 01:06:38,524
I'm sorry,
I don't mean to upset you.
1226
01:06:38,526 --> 01:06:40,359
It's just that
your husband is Muslim
1227
01:06:40,361 --> 01:06:42,328
and the prosecution
will be looking for motive.
1228
01:06:42,330 --> 01:06:45,531
My motive was to stop a war
1229
01:06:45,533 --> 01:06:49,968
and save lives. I failed.
1230
01:06:49,970 --> 01:06:52,939
All I've managed to do is put
my husband's future at risk.
1231
01:06:52,941 --> 01:06:54,707
BEN: And your own.
1232
01:06:54,709 --> 01:06:56,375
In fact,
by leaking information
1233
01:06:56,377 --> 01:06:58,145
to try and stop a war,
I'd argue
1234
01:06:58,147 --> 01:07:00,312
that you chose loyalty
to your country
1235
01:07:00,314 --> 01:07:04,618
over loyalty to your government,
your marriage and yourself.
1236
01:07:04,620 --> 01:07:07,489
You had nothing to gain
and everything to lose.
1237
01:07:08,890 --> 01:07:11,460
I think that speaks
rather highly of you.
1238
01:07:12,426 --> 01:07:15,595
SHAMI: He's trying
to give you a compliment.
1239
01:07:15,597 --> 01:07:16,562
I see.
1240
01:07:16,564 --> 01:07:18,631
JAMES: Part of our job
is to try and anticipate
1241
01:07:18,633 --> 01:07:21,834
what the prosecution's
going to throw at you.
1242
01:07:21,836 --> 01:07:24,638
Some of the people we meet
are looking for attention,
1243
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:26,939
a way to elevate
their humdrum lives.
1244
01:07:26,941 --> 01:07:29,777
- Well, I'm not.
- No, I don't think you are.
1245
01:07:33,682 --> 01:07:34,647
Sorry.
1246
01:07:34,649 --> 01:07:36,917
There's nothing
to be sorry for.
1247
01:07:36,919 --> 01:07:38,785
We're here to help.
1248
01:07:38,787 --> 01:07:39,821
(CHUCKLES LIGHTLY)
1249
01:07:41,589 --> 01:07:43,189
And we don't have duress.
1250
01:07:43,191 --> 01:07:47,026
She's adamant no outside
agency put any pressure on her.
1251
01:07:47,028 --> 01:07:48,761
Public interest?
1252
01:07:48,763 --> 01:07:51,263
The public has a right to know
when their government is lying.
1253
01:07:51,265 --> 01:07:53,232
We cite
the Falklands case
1254
01:07:53,234 --> 01:07:54,901
when Thatcher lied
about why she ordered
1255
01:07:54,903 --> 01:07:56,569
the sinking
of that Argentinian ship.
1256
01:07:56,571 --> 01:07:57,870
- Belgrano.
- Yeah.
1257
01:07:57,872 --> 01:08:00,372
- Who was the whistleblower?
- Clive Ponting.
1258
01:08:00,374 --> 01:08:01,674
The jury acquitted him,
didn't they?
1259
01:08:01,676 --> 01:08:02,942
Yes, and immediately
afterwards,
1260
01:08:02,944 --> 01:08:04,910
Thatcher had the Official
Secrets Act amended
1261
01:08:04,912 --> 01:08:06,745
to avoid being caught
in a lie in the future.
1262
01:08:06,747 --> 01:08:09,015
So since '89,
the public interest is
1263
01:08:09,017 --> 01:08:11,919
effectively whatever the
government says that it is.
1264
01:08:12,953 --> 01:08:14,620
We've got nothing.
1265
01:08:14,622 --> 01:08:16,523
I have to
think about it.
1266
01:08:16,525 --> 01:08:18,825
Sorry, I have to go.
1267
01:08:18,827 --> 01:08:21,029
I promised Anne
a weekend away.
1268
01:08:22,564 --> 01:08:25,264
If they charge her,
we might have to plead guilty
1269
01:08:25,266 --> 01:08:26,765
and ask for
a reduced sentence.
1270
01:08:26,767 --> 01:08:29,035
But she's young
and principled.
1271
01:08:29,037 --> 01:08:31,636
A judge might even think that
what she did was morally right.
1272
01:08:31,638 --> 01:08:34,042
Or crucify her
as a traitor.
1273
01:08:36,110 --> 01:08:37,111
Bye.
1274
01:09:04,672 --> 01:09:07,674
- You sure he was following you?
- He was staring at me.
1275
01:09:07,676 --> 01:09:08,741
Sometimes men stare...
1276
01:09:08,743 --> 01:09:09,843
Yeah, it wasn't
that kind of a stare.
1277
01:09:09,845 --> 01:09:11,309
What kind
of a stare was it?
1278
01:09:11,311 --> 01:09:14,412
Yas, please,
I'm scared. Okay?
1279
01:09:14,414 --> 01:09:15,751
I'm scared.
1280
01:09:17,485 --> 01:09:19,786
You know, for years,
I've tried to be legal here.
1281
01:09:19,788 --> 01:09:21,353
- I know.
- Then why'd you do it?
1282
01:09:21,355 --> 01:09:23,590
These arseholes got
their war, anyway.
1283
01:09:23,592 --> 01:09:25,425
Saddam's over.
And you know what?
1284
01:09:25,427 --> 01:09:27,560
- I'm glad he's over!
- War is not over.
1285
01:09:27,562 --> 01:09:29,094
Ousting Saddam
is just the beginning.
1286
01:09:29,096 --> 01:09:31,764
- What do you know about war?
- I work at GCHQ.
1287
01:09:31,766 --> 01:09:33,933
All you do is listen
to people talking!
1288
01:09:33,935 --> 01:09:36,702
You've never seen war!
You've never smelled it!
1289
01:09:36,704 --> 01:09:37,902
Never even
come close to it!
1290
01:09:37,904 --> 01:09:40,240
Yas, I understand
why you are angry.
1291
01:09:40,242 --> 01:09:42,474
It is my fault
and I'm sorry.
1292
01:09:42,476 --> 01:09:44,376
I am so sorry.
1293
01:09:44,378 --> 01:09:49,349
But I watched Blair
with his smug smile
1294
01:09:49,351 --> 01:09:52,117
and his sterile speeches
that tell us nothing
1295
01:09:52,119 --> 01:09:56,154
of what it must feel like to
be a child in Iraq right now.
1296
01:09:56,156 --> 01:09:58,791
I know I'm not sorry
that I tried to stop him.
1297
01:09:58,793 --> 01:09:59,928
I'm not.
1298
01:10:00,861 --> 01:10:03,129
I'm only sorry
that I failed.
1299
01:10:03,131 --> 01:10:04,732
(KNOCK ON DOOR)
1300
01:10:10,939 --> 01:10:14,139
Thank you
for inviting us in.
1301
01:10:14,141 --> 01:10:15,407
What is it
you came to say?
1302
01:10:15,409 --> 01:10:19,178
Well, there's been
a development.
1303
01:10:19,180 --> 01:10:21,848
- Am I going to be charged?
- That I don't know.
1304
01:10:21,850 --> 01:10:23,685
Then why
are you here?
1305
01:10:24,985 --> 01:10:27,419
I gather you went to see
a lawyer today.
1306
01:10:27,421 --> 01:10:28,755
- Did you follow me?
- No.
1307
01:10:28,757 --> 01:10:29,889
Because somebody did.
1308
01:10:29,891 --> 01:10:31,657
Well, you must know
that after what you did,
1309
01:10:31,659 --> 01:10:33,492
GCHQ is concerned.
1310
01:10:33,494 --> 01:10:36,062
I have a right
to legal advice.
1311
01:10:36,064 --> 01:10:39,965
TINTIN: Unfortunately,
it's not as simple as that.
1312
01:10:39,967 --> 01:10:42,734
When you signed on
to work for GCHQ,
1313
01:10:42,736 --> 01:10:45,737
you agreed to be bound
by the Official Secrets Act
1314
01:10:45,739 --> 01:10:47,840
for the rest of your life.
1315
01:10:47,842 --> 01:10:49,809
I know what I signed,
detective.
1316
01:10:49,811 --> 01:10:54,546
Mm, then you know
that it says here
1317
01:10:54,548 --> 01:10:56,948
in Section 1-1
1318
01:10:56,950 --> 01:10:59,518
that "a person is
guilty of an offense
1319
01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:02,855
"if he or she
1320
01:11:02,857 --> 01:11:04,956
"discloses any information
1321
01:11:04,958 --> 01:11:08,760
"relating to security
or intelligence."
1322
01:11:08,762 --> 01:11:12,398
This means that you cannot
discuss anything
1323
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,402
with anyone outside of GCHQ
1324
01:11:15,404 --> 01:11:18,006
relating to
the document you leaked.
1325
01:11:19,673 --> 01:11:21,941
Are you saying
I can't talk to a lawyer?
1326
01:11:21,943 --> 01:11:23,977
Oh, you have the right
to talk to a lawyer.
1327
01:11:23,979 --> 01:11:25,911
It's just that
you cannot discuss
1328
01:11:25,913 --> 01:11:29,448
anything to do with
your work at GCHQ,
1329
01:11:29,450 --> 01:11:31,416
or the contents
of the memo you leaked,
1330
01:11:31,418 --> 01:11:33,620
or how it came
into your possession
1331
01:11:33,622 --> 01:11:35,222
or who wrote it.
1332
01:11:36,490 --> 01:11:39,625
All of this information
is top secret.
1333
01:11:39,627 --> 01:11:42,728
So disclosing it
to anyone outside of GCHQ,
1334
01:11:42,730 --> 01:11:44,863
even a lawyer,
1335
01:11:44,865 --> 01:11:48,667
would be a further violation
of the Official Secrets Act,
1336
01:11:48,669 --> 01:11:51,970
which could result
in further prosecution
1337
01:11:51,972 --> 01:11:55,077
and a much longer
prison sentence.
1338
01:11:57,846 --> 01:12:00,649
We just wanted
you to be aware of that.
1339
01:12:02,484 --> 01:12:06,818
So if I may not talk to a
lawyer, who may I talk to?
1340
01:12:06,820 --> 01:12:09,587
You should talk to
your superiors at GCHQ.
1341
01:12:09,589 --> 01:12:13,158
- Are you fucking joking?
- Yas, please. Please.
1342
01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,894
We should hear what
the detectives have to say.
1343
01:12:15,896 --> 01:12:17,966
They're just
doing their job.
1344
01:12:20,836 --> 01:12:25,871
Simply put, if you wish
to tell anything to a lawyer
1345
01:12:25,873 --> 01:12:28,744
or the press or anyone else...
1346
01:12:29,709 --> 01:12:32,847
...you first need to
clear it with GCHQ.
1347
01:12:36,484 --> 01:12:37,852
Detective...
1348
01:12:38,887 --> 01:12:41,853
I leaked only one memo.
1349
01:12:41,855 --> 01:12:43,188
I had good reason to do so
1350
01:12:43,190 --> 01:12:46,492
and I intend to make
those reasons public
1351
01:12:46,494 --> 01:12:48,863
if I am charged.
1352
01:12:50,064 --> 01:12:52,197
I will not talk
to my lawyers again
1353
01:12:52,199 --> 01:12:54,669
unless I am charged.
1354
01:12:55,837 --> 01:12:58,106
Tell that to GCHQ.
1355
01:13:03,845 --> 01:13:05,344
Are you grilling
or smoking that fish?
1356
01:13:05,346 --> 01:13:08,447
I am smoking.
I've soaked the wood chips in water.
1357
01:13:08,449 --> 01:13:09,549
I've got charcoal.
1358
01:13:09,551 --> 01:13:12,518
I'm... I'm trying
something new.
1359
01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:15,188
- Hi.
- Ken?
1360
01:13:15,190 --> 01:13:16,621
- Hi.
- Hi, Ken.
1361
01:13:16,623 --> 01:13:19,591
- Guess you're down here for the weekend.
- Yes. Just for the night.
1362
01:13:19,593 --> 01:13:21,126
Yeah, me too.
It's been a while.
1363
01:13:21,128 --> 01:13:23,728
Mm-hmm. Would you, uh...
Do you want a drink?
1364
01:13:23,730 --> 01:13:26,532
Uh, no, thanks.
Sally's cooking dinner.
1365
01:13:26,534 --> 01:13:28,968
- Hello, Anne.
- Hi.
1366
01:13:28,970 --> 01:13:32,237
- I'm so sorry to intrude.
- Oh, not at all.
1367
01:13:32,239 --> 01:13:34,005
How's the new job?
1368
01:13:34,007 --> 01:13:37,910
Well, it's, um, eye-opening.
1369
01:13:37,912 --> 01:13:41,647
In fact, I wondered
if I might ask Ben's opinion
1370
01:13:41,649 --> 01:13:45,251
about a new case that my office
has been asked to prosecute.
1371
01:13:45,253 --> 01:13:48,688
It won't take a minute.
Would you mind?
1372
01:13:48,690 --> 01:13:50,689
How do you know
that I met her?
1373
01:13:50,691 --> 01:13:53,459
Security services
are all over this.
1374
01:13:53,461 --> 01:13:54,693
Mm-hmm.
1375
01:13:54,695 --> 01:13:56,595
And it's not just
a domestic embarrassment.
1376
01:13:56,597 --> 01:13:57,964
The Americans
are very unhappy.
1377
01:13:57,966 --> 01:13:59,465
Oh, well,
that is upsetting.
1378
01:13:59,467 --> 01:14:02,736
Oh, come on, Ben,
it's not funny.
1379
01:14:02,738 --> 01:14:05,770
What she did was a
deliberate act of betrayal.

colleagues anymore.

We're on
different sides here.
1382

I think she wants to be seen
as some sort of cause celebre.
1383
01:14:14,082 --> 01:14:18,283
But she swore allegiance
to the intelligence services
1384
01:14:18,285 --> 01:14:20,618
and when you do that you
don't get to pick and choose
1385

what orders
you'll follow.
1386
01:14:21,922 --> 01:14:24,290
Following orders is not
a defense to a war crime.

Yes, but who is she to undermine
the strategic objectives

- of a democratically-elected Prime Minister.

1389

Oh, come on, she's not selling
state secrets to Moscow.
1390
01:14:34,702 --> 01:14:36,969
She exposed
an illegal attempt
1391
01:14:36,971 --> 01:14:39,304
to secure
a UN resolution for war
1392
01:14:39,306 --> 01:14:41,072
which would have
given Blair perfect cover
1393
01:14:41,074 --> 01:14:42,640
for the bloody mess
that we're in now.
1394
01:14:42,642 --> 01:14:44,810
No, she should have
kept her mouth shut
1395
01:14:44,812 --> 01:14:47,045
or complained
to her superiors.
1396
01:14:47,047 --> 01:14:48,613
Now I've got
a real problem with people
1397
01:14:48,615 --> 01:14:50,715
who think that
from some lowly position
1398
01:14:50,717 --> 01:14:52,385
they can possibly see
the big picture.
1399
01:14:52,387 --> 01:14:54,185
So then you would
never question authority
1400
01:14:54,187 --> 01:14:55,955
even if you knew
it was breaking the law.
1401
01:14:55,957 --> 01:14:58,858

for being angry with her.

which shouldn't be difficult.

01:23:00,074 --> 01:23:01,576
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
1549
01:23:03,610 --> 01:23:05,477
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
1550
01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:06,644
- It's all right.
- You okay?
1551
01:23:06,646 --> 01:23:07,712
- I'm okay.
- Are you okay?
1552
01:23:07,714 --> 01:23:09,449
- You're okay?
- Yeah, yeah.
1553
01:23:16,757 --> 01:23:18,223
If they try and pull
anything like that again,
1554
01:23:18,225 --> 01:23:19,323
then I want
to go public.
1555
01:23:19,325 --> 01:23:20,858
- Not a good idea.
- Why not?
1556
01:23:20,860 --> 01:23:23,260
Because people are fickle.
Many will hate you.
1557
01:23:23,262 --> 01:23:25,096
Your personal lives
will be picked apart,
1558
01:23:25,098 --> 01:23:26,697
your marriage
will be interrogated.
1559
01:23:26,699 --> 01:23:28,567
In fact, we think
it will be best
1560
01:23:28,569 --> 01:23:31,502
if Yasar was kept
well out of this.
1561
01:23:31,504 --> 01:23:34,007
You should probably
not attend the trial.
1562
01:23:35,441 --> 01:23:38,276
- I understand.
- What? No.
1563
01:23:38,278 --> 01:23:40,444
Janum, we both know
the jury will prefer
1564
01:23:40,446 --> 01:23:42,179
an English girl without
an immigrant husband.
1565
01:23:42,181 --> 01:23:43,514
You know what?
That is ridiculous.
1566
01:23:43,516 --> 01:23:45,951
We are married and we have
nothing to be ashamed of.
1567
01:23:45,953 --> 01:23:47,719
The shame is on them, not you.
1568
01:23:47,721 --> 01:23:51,624
You don't need to risk
your freedom to prove it.
1569
01:23:51,626 --> 01:23:54,425
We should discuss
how you'll plead.
1570
01:23:54,427 --> 01:23:55,626
Not guilty.
1571
01:23:55,628 --> 01:23:57,729
SHAMI: But you understand
you confessed.
1572
01:23:57,731 --> 01:24:01,200
I confessed that I leaked a memo
in order to try and save lives.
1573
01:24:01,202 --> 01:24:05,804
And we will use that argument
to ask for a reduced sentence.
1574
01:24:05,806 --> 01:24:08,773
If you do plead guilty,
there will be no jury.
1575
01:24:08,775 --> 01:24:11,143
You could be out of jail
in less than six months.
1576
01:24:11,145 --> 01:24:12,777
Given how badly
the war is going,
1577
01:24:12,779 --> 01:24:15,179
we think a judge
is likely to be sympathetic.
1578
01:24:15,181 --> 01:24:17,515
But I'd have
a criminal record.
1579
01:24:17,517 --> 01:24:18,849
JAMES: That is true.
1580
01:24:18,851 --> 01:24:21,487
Which I would carry with me
for the rest of my life
1581
01:24:21,489 --> 01:24:23,087
into every job interview,
1582
01:24:23,089 --> 01:24:24,255
every application for credit.
1583
01:24:24,257 --> 01:24:26,157
- Yes.
- And I'm sorry.
1584
01:24:26,159 --> 01:24:28,893
We would be conceding
1585
01:24:28,895 --> 01:24:32,163
that no one in Intelligence can
ever tell the British people
1586
01:24:32,165 --> 01:24:33,866
when their government
is lying.
1587
01:24:33,868 --> 01:24:35,334
JAMES: Not when
the lies are protected
1588
01:24:35,336 --> 01:24:37,702
by the
Official Secrets Act, no.
1589
01:24:37,704 --> 01:24:39,036
I'm sorry.
This is all a charade.
1590
01:24:39,038 --> 01:24:40,872
I mean, if you're saying
that I have to plead guilty
1591
01:24:40,874 --> 01:24:43,642
because the act allows
absolutely no defense whatsoever,
1592
01:24:43,644 --> 01:24:46,045
then the very idea
of a fair trial is a joke.
1593
01:24:46,047 --> 01:24:47,779
I'm sorry,
Katharine,
1594
01:24:47,781 --> 01:24:51,783
but the best we can do is
ask a judge for leniency.
1595
01:24:51,785 --> 01:24:54,551
Post Belgrano, there
really is no defense
1596
01:24:54,553 --> 01:24:56,087
to a breach of
the Official Secrets Act...
1597
01:24:56,089 --> 01:24:57,992
Except perhaps one.
1598
01:24:58,959 --> 01:25:00,593
Katharine said it herself.
1599
01:25:00,595 --> 01:25:03,295
She leaked the memo
to try to save lives.
1600
01:25:03,297 --> 01:25:04,728
But she still
broke the law.
1601
01:25:04,730 --> 01:25:07,032
Yes, but there are circumstances
where you can break the law.
1602
01:25:07,034 --> 01:25:09,835
It's only in situations
of absolute necessity...
1603
01:25:09,837 --> 01:25:12,304
- Necessity. Exactly.
- Ben, you're reaching.
1604
01:25:12,306 --> 01:25:15,608
Am I? What are the requirements
for a defense of necessity?
1605
01:25:15,610 --> 01:25:17,643
Imminent threat to your life
or the lives of others.
1606
01:25:17,645 --> 01:25:20,246
Yeah, and no other reasonable
way to prevent loss of life.
1607
01:25:20,248 --> 01:25:21,813
Yes, right, well,
the invasion posed
1608
01:25:21,815 --> 01:25:23,915
an imminent threat
to thousands of lives.
1609
01:25:23,917 --> 01:25:25,850
Katharine has no right
to try and prevent a war
1610
01:25:25,852 --> 01:25:27,118
authorized by
the Attorney General.
1611
01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:30,488
- Unless the war is illegal.
- SHAMI AND JAMES: What?
1612
01:25:30,490 --> 01:25:33,724
- (CHUCKLES)
- Wait, wait, so now we're going to put the war on trial?
1613
01:25:33,726 --> 01:25:34,893
BEN: Yes.
1614
01:25:34,895 --> 01:25:39,363
I believe that Katharine Gun
tried to stop an illegal war.
1615
01:25:39,365 --> 01:25:41,066
What she did was necessary
1616
01:25:41,068 --> 01:25:44,435
to try to save thousands of
British-American and Iraqi lives.
1617
01:25:44,437 --> 01:25:47,538
And Goldsmith
specifically stated
1618
01:25:47,540 --> 01:25:49,040
that the invasion was legal.
1619
01:25:49,042 --> 01:25:51,910
He said so only three days
before the invasion.
1620
01:25:51,912 --> 01:25:53,312
What was his position
before that?
1621
01:25:53,314 --> 01:25:56,081
What was his advice at the
time Katharine leaked the memo?
1622
01:25:56,083 --> 01:25:57,948
- Well, we have no idea.
- Well, I'd like to find out.
1623
01:25:57,950 --> 01:25:59,584
Because Blair spent
a lot of energy
1624
01:25:59,586 --> 01:26:02,187
trying to secure
a new UN resolution.
1625
01:26:02,189 --> 01:26:03,421
I suppose.
1626
01:26:03,423 --> 01:26:05,590
When Lord Goldsmith
finally said
1627
01:26:05,592 --> 01:26:09,161
the war was legal,
his deputy legal advisor resigned.
1628
01:26:09,163 --> 01:26:10,961
Yes, Elizabeth Wilmshurst.
Yeah, that's right.
1629
01:26:10,963 --> 01:26:12,496
- She resigned. Yes, yes.
- SHAMI: But she didn't say why.
1630
01:26:12,498 --> 01:26:14,032
KATHARINE: She couldn't.
1631
01:26:14,034 --> 01:26:16,001
If she did, she'd be charged
under the Official Secrets Act.
1632
01:26:16,003 --> 01:26:18,202
So I need to get a meeting
with Elizabeth Wilmshurst.
1633
01:26:18,204 --> 01:26:20,171
- She's not gonna go public.
- BEN: She doesn't have to.
1634
01:26:20,173 --> 01:26:21,406
All we need is a hint
1635
01:26:21,408 --> 01:26:24,242
that Goldsmith changed his mind
about the legality of the war.
1636
01:26:24,244 --> 01:26:28,179
I'm sorry, Ben. There are two
ways they could justify war.
1637
01:26:28,181 --> 01:26:30,447
- We've only addressed one.
- So what am I missing?
1638
01:26:30,449 --> 01:26:31,916
- Self-defense.
- Oh, come on.
1639
01:26:31,918 --> 01:26:33,852
Does anyone honestly believe
that this country
1640
01:26:33,854 --> 01:26:35,621
was about to be attacked
by Iraq?
1641
01:26:35,623 --> 01:26:37,923
I do agree, but that's why
they trotted out Powell.
1642
01:26:37,925 --> 01:26:40,157
- To make the case for WMDs.
- Oh.
1643
01:26:40,159 --> 01:26:41,960
If it's true that Iraq has
weapons of mass destruction
1644
01:26:41,962 --> 01:26:44,595
that pose an imminent threat
to this country,
1645
01:26:44,597 --> 01:26:48,567
the war is legal
without a UN resolution.
1646
01:26:48,569 --> 01:26:49,901
How many people
actually believe
1647
01:26:49,903 --> 01:26:51,803
Iraq still has weapons
of mass destruction?
1648
01:26:51,805 --> 01:26:53,272
SHAMI: Well,
they're still looking.
1649
01:26:53,274 --> 01:26:56,711
If we go down this route,
we better pray none are found.
1650
01:26:58,913 --> 01:27:01,649
BEN: I'm gonna get
Elizabeth Wilmshurst's number.
1651
01:27:04,185 --> 01:27:06,885
You've put me
in a rather awkward position.
1652
01:27:06,887 --> 01:27:10,955
I'm sorry, but thank you
for seeing me.
1653
01:27:10,957 --> 01:27:14,024
I think what she did
took great courage.
1654
01:27:14,026 --> 01:27:17,862
And she was naive,
of course, but brave.
1655
01:27:17,864 --> 01:27:20,935
And you were
brave enough to resign.
1656
01:27:23,470 --> 01:27:26,638
But not to
speak out in public.
1657
01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:30,041
If I had, I might have caused
more of a brouhaha.
1658
01:27:30,043 --> 01:27:31,910
Sparked a proper debate.
1659
01:27:31,912 --> 01:27:36,083
Can I ask you, uh,
how did you resign?
1660
01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:41,756
I wrote a letter.
1661
01:27:43,056 --> 01:27:46,191
And in that letter,
did you give a reason
1662
01:27:46,193 --> 01:27:48,225
for your resignation?
1663
01:27:48,227 --> 01:27:51,563
I restated my position on
the legality of going to war.
1664
01:27:51,565 --> 01:27:53,430
Which was?
1665
01:27:53,432 --> 01:27:55,800
That it would
not be lawful to use force
1666
01:27:55,802 --> 01:27:59,170
without a new
Security Council resolution.
1667
01:27:59,172 --> 01:28:03,910
Um, did Goldsmith initially
support your view?
1668
01:28:05,110 --> 01:28:06,879
He did.
1669
01:28:06,881 --> 01:28:09,113
He told Blair that
if military action were taken,
1670
01:28:09,115 --> 01:28:11,282
he expected
the government to be accused
1671
01:28:11,284 --> 01:28:13,820
of acting unlawfully.
1672
01:28:15,321 --> 01:28:17,992
And was that
a written opinion?
1673
01:28:19,092 --> 01:28:21,228
It was a detailed
advisory document.
1674
01:28:23,029 --> 01:28:26,363
Right, so then would that
have been his position
1675
01:28:26,365 --> 01:28:29,501
at the time that Katharine Gun
printed the Koza memo
1676
01:28:29,503 --> 01:28:31,105
on February 3?
1677
01:28:33,540 --> 01:28:34,742
Yes.
1678
01:28:36,976 --> 01:28:39,046
And then
he went to Washington.
1679
01:28:39,946 --> 01:28:41,380
Oh, really?
1680
01:28:41,382 --> 01:28:46,053
- Well, who did he meet there?
- I wasn't given details.
1681
01:28:47,154 --> 01:28:50,822
But after that trip,
his opinion changed.
1682
01:28:50,824 --> 01:28:53,959
In nine short paragraphs,
he said that
1683
01:28:53,961 --> 01:28:57,528
the UN's authorization
for the 1991 Gulf War
1684
01:28:57,530 --> 01:28:59,965
could be reactivated
1685
01:28:59,967 --> 01:29:02,401
to legitimize
a new war with Iraq.
1686
01:29:02,403 --> 01:29:05,702
He told the Prime Minister
what he wanted to hear?
1687
01:29:05,704 --> 01:29:07,839
At best, he was
persuaded to support
1688
01:29:07,841 --> 01:29:10,474
a really fringe point of view.
1689
01:29:10,476 --> 01:29:13,644
- Oh, really fringe.
- Yeah.
1690
01:29:13,646 --> 01:29:15,749
(TELEPHONE RINGING)
1691
01:29:19,418 --> 01:29:21,118
- Martin Bright.
- Martin.
1692
01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:22,420
- Ben.
- Ben.
1693
01:29:22,422 --> 01:29:23,854
I took
your whistleblower's case.
1694
01:29:23,856 --> 01:29:26,291
Yes, I heard.
Can I meet her?
1695
01:29:26,293 --> 01:29:28,760
No, not yet, Martin.
I don't want a media frenzy.
1696
01:29:28,762 --> 01:29:30,062
Okay. When she's ready.
1697
01:29:30,064 --> 01:29:32,296
Before some hack
tracks her down.
1698
01:29:32,298 --> 01:29:34,532
Come on, Ben, I broke her story.
I'm on her side.
1699
01:29:34,534 --> 01:29:36,234
Well, you can help
by finding out
1700
01:29:36,236 --> 01:29:38,803
why the Attorney General
went to Washington
1701
01:29:38,805 --> 01:29:40,671
just before the war started.
1702
01:29:40,673 --> 01:29:43,175
Wait, Goldsmith went to DC?
1703
01:29:43,177 --> 01:29:44,876
I'd like to know
who he met there.
1704
01:29:44,878 --> 01:29:46,044
Right. I'm on it.
1705
01:29:46,046 --> 01:29:48,479
- And how is Peter?
- Peter is in Iraq.
1706
01:29:48,481 --> 01:29:50,782
Yeah, yeah, I know.
I've been reading his articles.
1707
01:29:50,784 --> 01:29:53,050
Listen, if he hears anything,
even a hint
1708
01:29:53,052 --> 01:29:56,287
that Saddam really did have
weapons of mass destruction,
1709
01:29:56,289 --> 01:29:57,456
then please call me.
1710
01:29:57,458 --> 01:29:59,590
Of course. Can I ask why?
1711
01:29:59,592 --> 01:30:01,559
Well, let's just say
that if WMD are found,
1712
01:30:01,561 --> 01:30:04,862
then defending Katharine will
be a little more complicated.
1713
01:30:04,864 --> 01:30:06,697

No, no, not a fucking thing.
Nothing.

Anyway, some Polish troops found
a cache of Sarin gas warheads
1722
01:30:23,382 --> 01:30:25,884
dating back to the Iran-Iraq
War, but they were all empty.
1723

And right now, I'm standing
in a glass factory
1724
01:30:27,620 --> 01:30:31,792
and all they've found is piles
of silica sand and soda ash.
1725
01:30:34,028 --> 01:30:34,926
So, yeah.
1726
01:30:34,928 --> 01:30:36,862
Things must be getting ugly
in Washington.
1727

Well, you should talk to Ed.

ED: Goldsmith's in DC
meeting with the attorneys
1738
01:31:03,123 --> 01:31:05,290
for Bush, Powell,
Rumsfeld and Rice.
1739
01:31:05,292 --> 01:31:07,325
- Okay, hold on...
- But that's not the big story.
1740
01:31:07,327 --> 01:31:10,728
The really big story
is the OSP.

The Office of Special Plans.
1742
01:31:12,298 --> 01:31:14,831
Turns out when Bush wasn't getting
the intelligence he wanted,
1743
01:31:14,833 --> 01:31:17,669
Rumsfeld bypassed the CIA
1744
01:31:17,671 --> 01:31:20,071
and set up his own
intelligence unit.
1745
01:31:20,073 --> 01:31:22,372
They fed
raw unvetted intelligence
1746
01:31:22,374 --> 01:31:25,876
to Bush and Powell
who lied us into a war!
1747
01:31:25,878 --> 01:31:27,578
Yeah. Okay, Ed.
I appreciate that.
1748
01:31:27,580 --> 01:31:29,014

Uh, you said Goldsmith
met Bush's lawyers
1751
01:31:33,052 --> 01:31:35,120
on February 11.
Who were those lawyers?
1752
01:31:35,122 --> 01:31:36,987
"John Ashcroft,
Alberto Gonzales,
1753
01:31:36,989 --> 01:31:40,125
William Taft, Jim Haynes,
John Bellinger."
1754
01:31:40,127 --> 01:31:43,327
The attorneys for Bush,
Powell, Rumsfeld and Rice.
1755

Wow. They really
turned up the heat.
1756
01:31:46,098 --> 01:31:49,099
You know, I almost
feel sorry for Goldsmith.
1757
01:31:49,101 --> 01:31:52,402
Don't. He fucking caved when
his country needed him most.
1758
01:31:52,404 --> 01:31:54,773
- That's a great headline, mate.
- It bloody is.

- (CHUCKLES) All right.
- Print it.

1763
01:32:01,114 --> 01:32:03,048
MARTIN: Goldsmith was
under tremendous pressure
1764
01:32:03,050 --> 01:32:04,648
before he went to Washington.
1765
01:32:04,650 --> 01:32:06,283
Our military were
refusing to invade
1766
01:32:06,285 --> 01:32:07,986
without a clear legal opinion
from him
1767
01:32:07,988 --> 01:32:09,586
that what they were doing
was legal
1768
01:32:09,588 --> 01:32:11,156
in case of a war crimes trial.
1769
01:32:11,158 --> 01:32:13,057
Thank you, Martin,
very helpful.
1770
01:32:13,059 --> 01:32:14,693
Well, no, hang on,
hang on, hang on.
1771
01:32:14,695 --> 01:32:15,992
Do you think
you have a defense?
1772
01:32:15,994 --> 01:32:17,495
- We're working on it.
- Okay.
1773
01:32:17,497 --> 01:32:19,163
- Let me know when you do.
- Well, you'll hear it in court.
1774
01:32:19,165 --> 01:32:20,965
- Come on, Ben.
- Bye.
1775
01:32:20,967 --> 01:32:22,901
- He's persistent.
- He is.
1776
01:32:22,903 --> 01:32:24,102
But it's your story
1777
01:32:24,104 --> 01:32:26,703
and you don't need
a media trial.
1778
01:32:26,705 --> 01:32:29,741
We should request full
disclosure of all legal advice
1779
01:32:29,743 --> 01:32:33,310
given by Goldsmith in the year
leading up to the invasion.
1780
01:32:33,312 --> 01:32:35,179
He'll almost certainly
refuse to comply.
1781
01:32:35,181 --> 01:32:37,148
Then we'll
subpoena Wilmshurst.
1782
01:32:37,150 --> 01:32:40,085
Hell, we'll subpoena Goldsmith himself.
And Blair too.
1783
01:32:40,087 --> 01:32:44,255
Ben, if we can't prove that
Goldsmith changed his advice,
1784
01:32:44,257 --> 01:32:48,062
we can't argue that Katharine
tried to stop an illegal war.
1785
01:32:48,529 --> 01:32:49,897
What then?
1786
01:32:58,404 --> 01:33:02,275
- Then I'll be found guilty.
- BEN: Almost certainly, yes.
1787
01:33:09,516 --> 01:33:12,684
So, do you want
to risk it all
1788
01:33:12,686 --> 01:33:17,889
and ask for disclosure
of the government's documents,
1789
01:33:17,891 --> 01:33:19,323
or would you
rather plead guilty
1790
01:33:19,325 --> 01:33:22,195
and hope
for a reduced sentence?

01:40:20,881 --> 01:40:21,844
Yes, My Lord.
1885
01:40:21,846 --> 01:40:24,615
JUDGE: And yet you do not
wish to proceed?
1886
01:40:24,617 --> 01:40:26,416
- ELLISON: No, My Lord.
- JUDGE: I'm sorry.
1887
01:40:26,418 --> 01:40:28,486
I find that extraordinary.
1888
01:40:28,488 --> 01:40:30,524
Do you care to explain?
1889
01:40:33,025 --> 01:40:36,559
My Lord, the accused
submitted an unusual defense.
1890
01:40:36,561 --> 01:40:39,162
Yes. The defense of necessity.
1891
01:40:39,164 --> 01:40:40,798
- ELLISON: Yes.
- And?
1892
01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:44,167
And we do not believe we have
sufficient evidence to rebut it.
1893
01:40:44,169 --> 01:40:46,036
Why not? She confessed.
1894
01:40:46,038 --> 01:40:47,639
Because, My Lord,
1895
01:40:47,641 --> 01:40:50,642
the documents that
we have called for would show
1896
01:40:50,644 --> 01:40:54,045
that this country was taken
to war illegally...
1897
01:40:54,047 --> 01:40:55,379
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
1898
01:40:55,381 --> 01:40:57,915
...and may expose
1899
01:40:57,917 --> 01:41:01,452
the government to
charges of war crimes.
1900
01:41:01,454 --> 01:41:03,890
- That is absurd!
- Is it?
1901
01:41:05,624 --> 01:41:07,692
Then kindly hand over
the documents
1902
01:41:07,694 --> 01:41:10,661
that we have asked to see.
1903
01:41:10,663 --> 01:41:12,429
My Lord, the prosecution
is not obliged.
1904
01:41:12,431 --> 01:41:15,765
Indeed, it is not permitted to continue
with a case if it does not believe
1905
01:41:15,767 --> 01:41:18,368
there is a realistic prospect
of a conviction.
1906
01:41:18,370 --> 01:41:20,604
To do so would be a waste
of taxpayers' funds.
1907
01:41:20,606 --> 01:41:22,473
My Lord, I am thankful
1908
01:41:22,475 --> 01:41:25,643
that the charges against
Ms. Gun are being withdrawn
1909
01:41:25,645 --> 01:41:28,277
and that the Crown
is suddenly so determined
1910
01:41:28,279 --> 01:41:30,480
not to waste taxpayers' money.
1911
01:41:30,482 --> 01:41:33,718
But surely,
after months of uncertainty
1912
01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:38,022
and severe distress,
Ms. Gun is entitled to know
1913
01:41:38,024 --> 01:41:40,925
why the government
is dropping this case?
1914
01:41:40,927 --> 01:41:44,194
Indeed, the public
is entitled to know.
1915
01:41:44,196 --> 01:41:45,998
- AUDIENCE: Hear, hear.
- Hear.
1916
01:41:48,534 --> 01:41:50,069
JUDGE: Mr. Ellison?
1917
01:41:53,338 --> 01:41:55,005
Again, My Lord, we do not feel
1918
01:41:55,007 --> 01:41:57,908
we have a realistic prospect
of a conviction.
1919
01:41:57,910 --> 01:42:00,046
There is nothing more
I can say.
1920
01:42:01,047 --> 01:42:02,580
JUDGE: To be clear,
1921
01:42:02,582 --> 01:42:06,750
you are withdrawing
all charges
1922
01:42:06,752 --> 01:42:09,489
against
Katharine Teresa Gun?
1923
01:42:12,525 --> 01:42:13,657
Yes, My Lord.
1924
01:42:13,659 --> 01:42:15,162
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
1925
01:42:24,471 --> 01:42:25,872
Ms. Gun...
1926
01:42:31,244 --> 01:42:32,813
...you are free to go.
1927
01:42:34,247 --> 01:42:35,714
(SIGHS)
1928
01:42:38,918 --> 01:42:39,986
(EXHALES)
1929
01:43:08,280 --> 01:43:11,215
REPORTER 1: In a startling about-turn,
the Crown Prosecution Service
1930
01:43:11,217 --> 01:43:13,350
has dropped its case
against an intelligence...
1931
01:43:13,352 --> 01:43:16,754
REPORTER 2: At 29, Katharine Gun
was facing jail for breaking the...
1932
01:43:16,756 --> 01:43:18,054
REPORTER 3: The last thing
the government wanted
1933
01:43:18,056 --> 01:43:19,523
within months
of a general election
1934
01:43:19,525 --> 01:43:20,758
was a big court case
1935
01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:22,859
focusing on the legality
of that war...
1936
01:43:22,861 --> 01:43:24,795
REPORTER 4: The lawyers wanted
the Attorney General's
1937
01:43:24,797 --> 01:43:26,563
secret advice
to Downing Street
1938
01:43:26,565 --> 01:43:29,466
about whether invading Iraq
was or was not legal
1939
01:43:29,468 --> 01:43:31,468
disclosed that the...
1940
01:43:31,470 --> 01:43:34,507
And he was involved in deciding
whether today's case...
1941
01:43:39,645 --> 01:43:42,979
REPORTER 5: First tonight,
Katharine Gun walks free.
1942
01:43:42,981 --> 01:43:44,915
In a dramatic about-turn,
the Crown...
1943
01:43:44,917 --> 01:43:46,684
REPORTER 6:
So did the Attorney General
1944
01:43:46,686 --> 01:43:48,518
put pressure on to stop
the trial?
1945
01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:50,121
Did GCHQ?
1946
01:43:50,123 --> 01:43:52,590
Did the prime minister?
No answers.
1947
01:43:52,592 --> 01:43:54,259
Tonight we're simply
asked to believe
1948
01:43:54,261 --> 01:43:56,997
that there was no case
to answer.
1949
01:43:58,998 --> 01:44:00,465
(CLAMORING)
1950
01:44:00,467 --> 01:44:02,767
REPORTER:
Would you do it again?
1951
01:44:02,769 --> 01:44:04,801
- Would you do it again?
- I have no regrets.
1952
01:44:04,803 --> 01:44:07,039
Yes, and I would
do it again, yes.
1953
01:44:22,622 --> 01:44:23,990
Caught anything?
1954
01:44:25,257 --> 01:44:26,626
Not yet.
1955
01:44:40,940 --> 01:44:44,010
You know, it wasn't
my choice to prosecute.
1956
01:44:45,845 --> 01:44:49,348
I was bound by the decision
of the Attorney General.
1957
01:44:50,748 --> 01:44:54,152
Why did you keep her
in a state of distress
1958
01:44:54,154 --> 01:44:58,721
for a year
before you brought charges?
1959
01:44:58,723 --> 01:45:02,492
The services wanted to make
an example of her.
1960
01:45:02,494 --> 01:45:05,429
If we dropped the case
any earlier,
1961
01:45:05,431 --> 01:45:08,133
what kind of message
would that have sent?
1962
01:45:13,138 --> 01:45:15,007
Do me a favor, Ken.
1963
01:45:15,675 --> 01:45:17,744
Go and fish somewhere else.
1964
01:45:51,244 --> 01:45:56,244
