1
00:00:00,250 ---> 00:00:03,285
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday. Alpha 075.
2
00:00:03,320 ---> 00:00:05,215
I'm declaring a fuel emergency.
3
00:00:05,251 ---> 00:00:08,964
Alpha 075, what's your current
fuel status?
4
00:00:09,000 ---> 00:00:10,881
- _
- 295 souls on board.
5
00:00:10,917 ---> 00:00:12,557
Current fuel status is half an hour.
6
00:00:12,593 ---> 00:00:15,358
We spent too long over France.
We won't make Newcastle.
7
00:00:15,600 ---> 00:00:17,965
They've had avionics issues
since the storm hit.
8
00:00:18,000 ---> 00:00:20,100
And then the situation
at Charles de Gaulle.
9
00:00:20,136 ---> 00:00:21,115
Where is he now?
10
00:00:21,846 ---> 00:00:23,698
Approaching Northumberland
but we keep losing him.
11
00:00:23,767 ---> 00:00:26,578
- Try Newcastle.
- He doesn't think he'll get there.
12
00:00:26,679 ---> 00:00:28,072
_
13
00:00:28,370 ---> 00:00:30,406
_
14
00:00:30,676 ---> 00:00:32,239
_
15
00:00:32,275 ---> 00:00:34,180
_
16
00:00:34,899 ---> 00:00:38,824
OK, Alpha 075, we're sending you
to RAF Coningsby.
17
00:00:39,000 ---> 00:00:41,400
We won't make that. We need to land.
18
00:00:42,487 ---> 00:00:43,660
_
19
00:00:43,696 ---> 00:00:44,745
_
20
00:00:44,781 ---> 00:00:47,709
_
21
00:00:50,667 ---> 00:00:52,592
That's exactly what I said to them.
22
00:00:52,628 ---> 00:00:54,548
We don't have the officers...
23
00:00:56,600 ---> 00:00:57,877
Jesus Christ!
24
00:00:59,582 ---> 00:01:02,400
A plane just went over really low
but I can't see any lights.
25
00:01:03,925 ---> 00:01:05,745
_
26
00:01:05,781 ---> 00:01:07,157
_
27
00:01:07,779 ---> 00:01:09,196
_
28
00:01:24,808 ---> 00:01:28,125
_
29
00:01:36,341 ---> 00:01:38,339
_
30
00:01:41,220 ---> 00:01:42,570
- You're smoking.
- No!
31
00:01:43,340 ---> 00:01:45,384
- Why can't you vape?
- Real men don't vape.
32
00:01:46,058 ---> 00:01:47,569
Where's your protection officer?
33
00:01:47,605 ---> 00:01:50,072
Risk is part of smoking.
Take that out, what have you got?
34
00:01:50,108 ---> 00:01:52,713
Lymph nodes! I called James.
He's just coming.
35
00:01:53,100 ---> 00:01:55,095
So can I go to the party?
36
00:01:55,131 ---> 00:01:57,356
As long as we can video
you millie-rocking.
37
00:01:58,152 ---> 00:02:00,797
- You think I don't know what that is.
- He doesn't.
38
00:02:00,953 ---> 00:02:02,705
We don't really do parties anyway.
39
00:02:03,112 ---> 00:02:06,385
- Really? What do you call them now?
- A few friends coming round...
40
00:02:06,420 ---> 00:02:08,800
Yeah. For tea and biscuits.
41
00:02:08,851 ---> 00:02:11,199
Well, enjoy yourselves. You deserve it.
42
00:02:12,671 ---> 00:02:15,673
I love you. Call me later. Bye, Georgia.
43
00:02:16,020 ---> 00:02:19,858
Fascist scum! Sutherland! Resign!
44
00:02:21,180 ---> 00:02:23,344
- Yes, make that move.
- Bye, Mrs Sutherland.45
00:02:23,380 ---> 00:02:24,352
Are you sure?
46
00:02:24,388 ---> 00:02:26,825
It's been a long time coming.
What about the other issue?
47
00:02:26,860 ---> 00:02:28,945
Still waiting for an update from Fraser.
48
00:02:29,365 ---> 00:02:31,505
- OK. I'm on my way.
- OK.
49
00:02:31,540 ---> 00:02:33,372
I'll call you as soon
as I hear anything.
50
00:02:37,088 ---> 00:02:38,088
Dan?
51
00:02:38,494 ---> 00:02:41,471
I want an immediate update if
there's any sign of panic buying
52
00:02:41,507 ---> 00:02:42,584
at the petrol stations.
53
00:02:47,920 ---> 00:02:49,080
Anna.
54
00:02:58,960 ---> 00:03:00,840
You didn't answer my letters.
55
00:03:10,300 ---> 00:03:12,180
They didn't deserve an answer.
56
00:03:14,980 ---> 00:03:16,040
Mum?
57
00:03:18,900 ---> 00:03:20,242
Please go.
58
00:03:23,918 ---> 00:03:25,826
You don't even want to know
what happened.
59
00:03:29,020 ---> 00:03:30,105
No.
60
00:03:32,196 ---> 00:03:34,342
Mum, who's this guy? Is he hassling you?
61
00:03:34,378 ---> 00:03:35,476
He's just going.
62
00:03:43,554 ---> 00:03:46,006
Come on. Come inside. Come on.
63
00:03:53,257 ---> 00:03:57,199
_
64
00:03:58,255 ---> 00:03:59,471
X5.
65
00:04:01,860 ---> 00:04:03,127
And another one.
66
00:04:05,415 ---> 00:04:06,598
I'll let them know.
67
00:04:22,309 ---> 00:04:24,349
- Anna.
- Multiple X5s.
68
00:04:25,895 ---> 00:04:28,068
- Right. Do we know...?
- That's all we've got.
69
00:04:28,774 ---> 00:04:31,382
But we've gone from moderate
to significant threat
70
00:04:31,418 ---> 00:04:33,063
and we're informing all goal commanders.
71
00:04:33,329 ---> 00:04:34,792
I'll tell the Prime Minister.
72
00:05:08,774 ---> 00:05:10,858
- Anna.
- Multiple X5s.
73
00:05:11,055 ---> 00:05:12,558
We've gone to significant threat.
74
00:05:12,580 ---> 00:05:14,625
They could be heading our way.
75
00:05:15,371 ---> 00:05:17,470
Convene a full COBRA for the morning.
76
00:05:32,408 ---> 00:05:36,408
Syncf everything.
90
00:06:19,338 ---> 00:06:20,383
Here.
91
00:06:23,200 ---> 00:06:24,432
Cheers.
92
00:06:37,068 ---> 00:06:40,068
_
93
00:06:44,442 ---> 00:06:46,598
- Dominic Knight's on the way.
- Great. Thanks.
94
00:06:58,795 ---> 00:07:01,095
_
95
00:07:01,855 ---> 00:07:04,165
Hey, Anna. You wanted to see me.
96
00:07:13,596 ---> 00:07:15,311
- It wasn't me.
- It was you.
97
00:07:15,640 ---> 00:07:17,092
- I didn't.
- You did.
98
00:07:17,802 ---> 00:07:19,892
I did an interview a while back/
99
00:07:19,928 ---> 00:07:22,802
"What's the most important function
of being the PM's Chief of Staff?"
100
00:07:22,838 ---> 00:07:24,276
Do you know what I was tempted to say?
101
00:07:25,513 ---> 00:07:28,033
Knowing where the nearest toilet is
at all times.
102
00:07:29,178 ---> 00:07:32,269
There's the strategic input, diary
management, controlling access.
103
00:07:32,305 ---> 00:07:33,858
But really it comes down to making sure
104
00:07:33,894 ---> 00:07:35,660
he always has somewhere to take a piss.
105
00:07:36,274 ---> 00:07:39,410
You don't get to choose
your level of loyalty
106
00:07:39,446 ---> 00:07:41,116
when you work at this address.
107
00:07:43,639 ---> 00:07:46,586
We have a COBRA
on the solar threat at 11.
108
00:07:47,040 ---> 00:07:50,426
And you have until the end of the
day to draft your resignation letter.
109
00:07:52,244 ---> 00:07:55,647
Can I...? That is outrageous.
110
00:07:55,683 ---> 00:07:59,132
You're quite right. You don't need
all day for such a short letter.
111
00:07:59,718 ---> 00:08:02,529
Two hours should be plenty.
Have it done by lunch.
112
00:08:02,621 ---> 00:08:04,552
The civil servants are waiting.
We should go.
113
00:08:11,410 ---> 00:08:12,739
Oh, and Dominic.
114
00:08:14,083 ---> 00:08:15,644
You can leave by the public entrance.
115
00:08:20,156 ---> 00:08:23,455
Queen takes Knight.
We should expect a counter-attack.
116
00:08:23,626 ---> 00:08:27,626
Don't worry.
Got the next move all planned out.
117
00:08:36,651 ---> 00:08:39,073
Peter will brief the press
118
00:08:39,281 ---> 00:08:41,702
the threat level's been
raised to significant.
119
00:08:42,237 ---> 00:08:44,573
All the petrol stations
seem to be working.
120
00:08:45,080 ---> 00:08:47,034
There's no sign of panic yet.
121
00:08:47,944 ---> 00:08:49,988
Because people don't know
what to panic about.
122
00:09:06,396 ---> 00:09:09,089
- Morning, Archie.
- Fuck that!
123
00:09:10,442 ---> 00:09:12,442
Have you just sacked Dominic Knight?
124
00:09:12,478 ---> 00:09:13,951
Shouldn't it be,
"Fuck that, Prime Minister?"
125
00:09:13,987 ---> 00:09:15,763
You should have talked to me first.
126
00:09:15,799 ---> 00:09:18,732
I really don't think that's part of my
constitutional obligations actually.
127
00:09:18,768 ---> 00:09:21,483
You know how it looks.
Dom's closely identified with me.
128
00:09:21,519 ---> 00:09:22,881
Don't go there, Archie.
129
00:09:23,177 ---> 00:09:24,560
Or I'm gonna be forced to ask,
130
00:09:24,596 ---> 00:09:27,958
"Who gave him the nod to brief
against the policy he helped devise?"
131
00:09:29,022 ---> 00:09:30,441
They're ready for us now.
132
00:09:30,844 ---> 00:09:33,425
Oh, I'm sorry, Lady Macbeth.
133
00:09:33,461 ---> 00:09:36,399
I didn't spot you lurking there
for one delightful moment.
134
00:09:36,587 ---> 00:09:38,653
That might work if I was his wife.
135
00:09:39,323 ---> 00:09:40,611
Never too late.
136
00:09:47,107 ---> 00:09:51,134
So which virtue-signalling ponce
has been lined up to replace him?
137
00:09:51,439 ---> 00:09:53,115
I have a couple of ideas.
138
00:09:53,466 ---> 00:09:55,812
Francine Bridge was one
thought that occurred to me.
139
00:09:59,438 ---> 00:10:01,503
We'll have to have a chat
about that one.
140
00:10:12,724 ---> 00:10:15,525
Now, as you are already aware,
141
00:10:16,058 ---> 00:10:17,234
this morning,
142
00:10:17,437 ---> 00:10:19,619
the threat from Extreme Space Weather
143
00:10:19,655 ---> 00:10:21,899
was raised from moderate to significant.
144
00:10:22,125 ---> 00:10:24,970
There is some uncertainty
as to the impact zone
145
00:10:25,006 ---> 00:10:27,091
but the UK is certainly at risk.
146
00:10:27,284 ---> 00:10:29,611
I'll now hand over to
the Chief Scientific Officer.
147
00:10:29,736 ---> 00:10:31,754
Yes, as I briefed the Director
148
00:10:31,790 ---> 00:10:34,622
of the Civil Contingencies
Secretariat last night,
149
00:10:34,658 ---> 00:10:38,180
the Met Office has been
seeing fairly significant activity
150
00:10:38,216 ---> 00:10:40,298
on the eastern side of the sun.
151
00:10:40,334 ---> 00:10:42,174
But we planned for all this though.
152
00:10:42,997 ---> 00:10:45,682
There was the seminar you did
at the Home Office.
153
00:10:46,099 ---> 00:10:49,074
What was it called again? The last
bad one, a couple of centuries back.
154
00:10:49,110 ---> 00:10:50,183
The Carrington Event.
155
00:10:50,554 ---> 00:10:54,884
And a few telegraph operators
got singed eyebrows, right?
156
00:10:55,014 ---> 00:10:56,823
The point is though, Home Secretary,
157
00:10:56,859 ---> 00:10:59,165
as I'm sure you'll recall
from my presentation,
158
00:10:59,419 ---> 00:11:01,711
that our technologies are
much more sophisticated now.
159
00:11:01,747 ---> 00:11:04,912
The impact of a similar-sized storm
will be considerably worse.
160
00:11:04,948 ---> 00:11:09,433
OK, but it's not a great big meteorite
or the sun suddenly blowing up.
161
00:11:09,469 ---> 00:11:10,765
It's neither of those scenarios.
162
00:11:10,801 ---> 00:11:13,322
I shall make the Press
very aware of that later.
163
00:11:13,700 ---> 00:11:16,345
Be great if we could all
stay on message on this one.164
00:11:16,381 ---> 00:11:19,466
Well, I have a bottle of Lagavulin
with the Foreign Secretary,
165
00:11:19,502 ---> 00:11:21,752
this will all go the way
it normally does.
166
00:11:21,788 ---> 00:11:25,313
I am sure we are all hugely
reassured by that, Archie.
167
00:11:25,660 ---> 00:11:27,449
Now perhaps you could
pick up the threats
168
00:11:27,485 ---> 00:11:28,778
in terms of practical implications
169
00:11:28,814 ---> 00:11:32,664
just in case the shark actually is
in the water like the last time.
170
00:11:32,700 ---> 00:11:34,262
Of course, Prime Minister.
171
00:11:34,490 ---> 00:11:37,786
Stage One of a bad solar storm
would knock out satellites,
172
00:11:37,822 ---> 00:11:41,067
potentially destabilising all
transport and navigational systems.
173
00:11:41,103 ---> 00:11:43,834
I understand that aviation
is the biggest concern.
174
00:11:43,870 ---> 00:11:46,132
Yes. There are real worries
over flight safety
175
00:11:46,168 ---> 00:11:47,635
after a serious particle blizzard.
176
00:11:47,671 ---> 00:11:51,008
But Stage Two is potentially
the most disruptive part.
177
00:11:51,223 ---> 00:11:53,428
The storm will almost certainly release
178
00:11:53,464 ---> 00:11:56,058
several blasts of plasma into space.
179
00:11:56,256 ---> 00:11:57,952
And if one of these reaches Earth
180
00:11:57,988 ---> 00:12:00,475
it could cause huge
damage to the power supply
181
00:12:00,639 ---> 00:12:04,290
through voltage instability and
transformer damage on the network.
182
00:12:04,326 ---> 00:12:06,346
Some areas could be without power
for months.
183
00:12:06,597 ---> 00:12:08,344
The National Grid begs to differ.
184
00:12:08,380 ---> 00:12:11,305
They think it could be restricted
to a couple of remote areas.
185
00:12:11,372 ---> 00:12:15,552
And it could. We just don't
really know and neither do they.
186
00:12:16,122 ---> 00:12:20,680
But even one day without power is
enough to drive most people insane
187
00:12:20,880 ---> 00:12:23,039
and do huge damage to the economy.
188
00:12:23,075 ---> 00:12:26,843
Think of the impact of
weeks or even months.
189
00:12:26,879 ---> 00:12:30,004
When are we gonna know whether all
or any of this is gonna happen?
190
00:12:30,108 ---> 00:12:33,763
We expect to see more large flares
on the visible face of the sun.
191
00:12:34,036 ---> 00:12:36,503
The Met Office are monitoring
for plasma launches.
192
00:12:36,723 ---> 00:12:39,328
But even then, it would
have to come our way
193
00:12:39,720 ---> 00:12:43,514
and even then there would still be
one critical variable left.
194
00:12:43,933 ---> 00:12:46,176
Does the incoming plasma field
195
00:12:46,212 ---> 00:12:50,013
have a north or south
magnetic orientation?
196
00:12:50,440 ---> 00:12:53,407
- Which is the one we don't want?
- Hot South bad.
197
00:12:53,529 ---> 00:12:55,814
FrozenNorth... harmless.
198
00:12:56,112 ---> 00:12:58,833
The probability is absolutely 50:50.
199
00:12:59,905 ---> 00:13:02,950
The plasma eruption could have
very little impact at all
200
00:13:03,306 ---> 00:13:06,239
or... it could be extremely serious.
201
00:13:06,329 ---> 00:13:08,374
When do we know? For certain.
202
00:13:08,551 ---> 00:13:11,476
So once released
it could take up to two days
203
00:13:11,512 ---> 00:13:14,149
to cover the 90 million miles
from sun to Earth.
204
00:13:14,185 ---> 00:13:16,286
But we'll only know if we're Hot South
205
00:13:16,322 ---> 00:13:19,727
when it passes our satellite
at the L1 point.
206
00:13:19,763 ---> 00:13:22,007
That's about one million miles
from Earth.
207
00:13:22,043 ---> 00:13:23,513
Do the math, Archie.
208
00:13:23,836 ---> 00:13:25,396
Last time I tried that in public,
209
00:13:25,432 ---> 00:13:27,645
Eddie Mair made a bit
of a twat out of me.
210
00:13:29,044 ---> 00:13:30,887
- Half an hour.
- Correct.
211
00:13:31,230 ---> 00:13:33,510
There will be just 30 minutes
before we know
212
00:13:33,546 ---> 00:13:37,986
if this storm will fuse a few kettles
or send us back to the Stone Age.
213
00:13:51,346 ---> 00:13:54,721
Archie's face was a picture
when you told that brilliant joke
214
00:13:54,757 ---> 00:13:58,256
about Francine Bridge as the
new head of the policy unit.
215
00:13:58,514 ---> 00:13:59,976
Great timing as well,
216
00:14:00,704 ---> 00:14:02,384
just before we go into
the briefing room,
217
00:14:02,420 ---> 00:14:05,397
leaving him no time to respond
to your hilarious quip.
218
00:14:06,140 ---> 00:14:09,953
I believe that expression is called,
"What the actual fuck?"
219
00:14:10,031 ---> 00:14:13,307
by the young people who've abandoned
our party in their droves.
220
00:14:13,720 ---> 00:14:15,640
- You weren't joking, were you?
- No.
221
00:14:17,260 ---> 00:14:19,752
- What the actual fuck?
- She's brilliant.
222
00:14:19,788 ---> 00:14:22,466
She's unemployed.
Did I mention young people?
223
00:14:22,502 ---> 00:14:24,975
- She was a Labour MP.
- Yes, but...
224
00:14:25,011 ---> 00:14:27,844
Why does everybody assume
all people under 20
225
00:14:27,880 ---> 00:14:30,646
are transgender vegans who
only care about tuition fees?
226
00:14:30,682 ---> 00:14:32,909
If you only ever take
one piece of advice from me,
227
00:14:32,945 ---> 00:14:35,051
it is never make jokes about gender.
228
00:14:35,087 ---> 00:14:37,085
People literally lose
their shit over it.
229
00:14:37,293 ---> 00:14:38,579
How about vegans?
230
00:14:38,820 ---> 00:14:40,460
Stick to what you know.
231
00:14:41,153 ---> 00:14:44,077
Can we not just start moving
replacement transformers in advance?
232
00:14:44,820 ---> 00:14:48,505
Have you ever seen a transformer?
They're not small, you know.
233
00:14:48,727 ---> 00:14:51,653
- OK. In awe at the size of...
- Absolute unit.
234
00:14:51,965 ---> 00:14:53,942
The sun is not going to explode.
235
00:14:53,995 ---> 00:14:56,480
There are no fireballs or meteorites.
236
00:14:56,516 ---> 00:15:00,401
It is an invisible geomagnetic storm
that could disrupt things.
237
00:15:00,437 ---> 00:15:04,362
We have measures in place. Please,
please, please, please, please...
238
00:15:04,398 ---> 00:15:07,803
Pretty fucking please,
report this responsibly.
239
00:15:08,227 ---> 00:15:10,433
So what time exactly
does the sun explode?
240
00:15:11,712 ---> 00:15:14,429
I will brief you again if the
threat level moves to serious.
241
00:15:15,441 ---> 00:15:19,401
Move the security meeting with
the Crab back to 11:30, please.
242
00:15:20,115 ---> 00:15:24,108
Well, they stockpiled CS gas and
baton rounds for the last false alarm.
243
00:15:24,749 ---> 00:15:27,226
Wait, Ed. Don't hang up.
I've got Dom Knight calling.
244
00:15:29,233 ---> 00:15:32,011
Dom? Oh, for God's sake.
245
00:15:32,914 ---> 00:15:35,107
Are you there, Dom? Good.
246
00:15:35,143 ---> 00:15:37,309
Never trust this "hold
and accept" malarkey.
247
00:15:38,700 ---> 00:15:40,785
Oh, you bet we'll meet later.
248
00:15:40,820 ---> 00:15:43,300
Don't worry.
I'm not taking this lying down.
249
00:15:43,864 ---> 00:15:48,549
My daughter spends most of her time
signing petitions on social media.
250
00:15:48,585 ---> 00:15:52,390
And my son sings that stupid
lefty chant in the bath.
251
00:15:52,517 ---> 00:15:55,300
To them we're still the nasty party.
252
00:15:55,590 ---> 00:15:58,905
We hate animals and refugees
whilst favouring tax dodgers.
253
00:15:58,941 ---> 00:16:02,085
Our party does contain people like that.
We can't just wish them away.
254
00:16:02,121 ---> 00:16:03,907
Or Archie would not be Home Secretary.
255
00:16:03,943 ---> 00:16:05,681
Which brings me to Francine Bridge.
256
00:16:06,260 ---> 00:16:08,667
She isn't a member of her party
any longer.
257
00:16:08,819 ---> 00:16:10,664
She even resigned her seat
in Parliament.
258
00:16:10,817 ---> 00:16:12,533
OK, but there's still a massive problem.
259
00:16:12,569 ---> 00:16:14,019
- I know what you're going to say.
- No, you don't.
260
00:16:14,055 ---> 00:16:17,064
You're going to say none of this matters
because she won't accept.
261
00:16:18,352 ---> 00:16:19,908
OK. That is what I was going to say.
262
00:16:20,139 ---> 00:16:23,024
It's a problem but not an
insurmountable one. Leave it with me.
263
00:16:23,060 ---> 00:16:24,487
I'm meeting her for a drink later.
264
00:16:24,852 ---> 00:16:28,504
Met Office has just seen a massive solar
flare with multiple plasma launches.
265
00:16:29,499 ---> 00:16:32,961
We need to raise the threat level to
serious and recall COBRA immediately.
266
00:16:33,814 ---> 00:16:37,019
So having analysedthe data,
we can now confirm
267
00:16:37,055 ---> 00:16:40,135
that a high-speed plasma eruption
is heading straight for us.
268
00:16:41,257 ---> 00:16:42,338
When does it arrive?
269
00:16:42,374 ---> 00:16:44,624
It depends on whether
it maintains current speed
270
00:16:44,660 ---> 00:16:45,992
so we can't say for certain.
271
00:16:46,028 ---> 00:16:51,137
They're currently estimating
some time late tomorrow afternoon
272
00:16:51,173 ---> 00:16:54,027
with a margin for error
of about five hours.
273
00:16:54,063 ---> 00:16:57,906
In the meantime we do already have
an immediate impact on planes.
274
00:16:58,383 ---> 00:17:00,448
We're getting reports of avionics issues
275
00:17:00,484 ---> 00:17:03,530
like false warnings and autopilots
suddenly disconnecting.
276
00:17:03,566 ---> 00:17:06,191
Isn't that why we still
have real pilots on board?
277
00:17:06,227 ---> 00:17:07,845
It is, Home Secretary.
278
00:17:07,881 ---> 00:17:12,090
Although when an Air France crew faced
a similar scenario some years ago,
279
00:17:12,340 ---> 00:17:14,360
they hit the ocean 15 minutes later.
280
00:17:16,960 ---> 00:17:19,993
The glide paths at two French
airports have failed.
281
00:17:20,029 ---> 00:17:22,046
They need to divert traffic our way.
282
00:17:22,082 ---> 00:17:24,031
Can't they go to their pals in Germany?
283
00:17:24,067 ---> 00:17:26,989
You voted to leave the EU, Archie,
not the human race.
284
00:17:30,262 ---> 00:17:32,507
Well, it's fairly obvious
what the issue is here.
285
00:17:32,543 ---> 00:17:34,019
Do we ground all flights?
286
00:17:34,693 ---> 00:17:39,778
That would have a very high cost,
both human and financial.
287
00:17:39,814 ---> 00:17:41,193
Department of Biz is opposed.
288
00:17:41,229 ---> 00:17:43,074
I trust you all remember the ash cloud.
289
00:17:43,673 ---> 00:17:47,918
If the situation in the air is
manageable and it's Frozen North,
290
00:17:48,280 ---> 00:17:50,283
then this is as bad as it gets.
291
00:17:50,512 ---> 00:17:51,806
In which case,
292
00:17:51,842 ---> 00:17:53,762
we should just wait until morning.
293
00:17:56,240 ---> 00:18:00,480
Grounding all flights has real human
impact and indirect danger to life.
294
00:18:02,220 ---> 00:18:04,366
This is a hard decision
but we do have to decide
295
00:18:04,402 ---> 00:18:05,872
as there's no middle ground here.
296
00:18:10,159 ---> 00:18:13,140
Flights will remain operational
until we have more information.
297
00:18:13,176 ---> 00:18:14,476
It's the right decision.
298
00:18:18,650 ---> 00:18:20,580
_
299
00:18:20,616 ---> 00:18:22,665
- Keep me updated on the plasma eruption.
- Will do.
300
00:18:23,541 ---> 00:18:25,946
I'm gonna stay here until we
know if it's North or South.
301
00:18:25,982 ---> 00:18:27,356
You guys should probably just...
302
00:18:27,392 ---> 00:18:29,597We'll stay too.
We'll take it in turns to sleep.
303
00:18:29,633 ---> 00:18:31,871
OK. We could be here for a while so...
304
00:18:32,649 ---> 00:18:35,293
I need to pop out for an hour.
305
00:18:35,540 ---> 00:18:37,275
Need to make sure Mabel's OK.
306
00:18:39,919 ---> 00:18:41,844
It's my dad's dog. Cockapoo.
307
00:18:41,880 ---> 00:18:43,680
Staying with me while
he's in the care home.
308
00:18:44,160 ---> 00:18:45,387
How is the old man?
309
00:18:45,423 ---> 00:18:48,120
Well, he thinks the Home Secretary
should leave the country
310
00:18:48,156 ---> 00:18:50,836
so possible early-stage dementia.
311
00:18:50,872 ---> 00:18:53,952
I need to speak to the hospital social
worker but I haven't had a second.
312
00:18:55,222 ---> 00:18:56,560
Do you need anything?
313
00:18:56,596 ---> 00:18:58,601
I'll get some food in a bit later.
314
00:18:58,637 ---> 00:19:00,642
- Pizza or curry?
- Pizza.
315
00:19:00,678 ---> 00:19:02,197
Something with loads of anchovies.
316
00:19:06,347 ---> 00:19:08,213
- I thought for a minute he was...
- Me too!
317
00:19:09,909 ---> 00:19:11,803
- Did you ever meet his ex wife?
- Uh-uh.
318
00:19:12,446 ---> 00:19:14,867
More Doberman than cockapoo.
319
00:19:14,903 ---> 00:19:16,142
He's better off with Mabel.
320
00:19:21,300 ---> 00:19:22,510
So will you do it?
321
00:19:22,576 ---> 00:19:23,940
Of course I won't.
322
00:19:24,204 ---> 00:19:27,657
Doesn't have to be Policy and Research.
You can have any job title you please.
323
00:19:28,451 ---> 00:19:30,691
Chief Advisor to the Duchy of Narnia.
324
00:19:32,469 ---> 00:19:34,114
What do we really disagree on?
325
00:19:34,824 ---> 00:19:37,234
Corporation tax, public services.
326
00:19:37,270 ---> 00:19:40,010
The unquestionable
superiority of Western values.
327
00:19:40,046 ---> 00:19:41,590
I've seen the alternative.
328
00:19:41,626 ---> 00:19:44,426
- Also, you're not your party.
- And you would answer only to me.
329
00:19:46,557 ---> 00:19:47,550
I can't.
330
00:19:48,668 ---> 00:19:50,873
I got badly burned in the split.
I just want...
331
00:19:50,909 ---> 00:19:55,131
...what all normal people want.
Respect. Trust. Decency.
332
00:19:55,660 ---> 00:19:59,663
And a bit of help with
the school fees, of course.
333
00:20:00,740 ---> 00:20:03,665
Universal credit doesn't
cover that, right?
334
00:20:03,701 ---> 00:20:05,621
You are such an operator.
335
00:20:09,140 ---> 00:20:10,961
Still getting flak for going private?
336
00:20:11,113 ---> 00:20:14,318
Yes. I didn't change
my principles, Anna.
337
00:20:14,354 ---> 00:20:17,049
He got threatened with bloody acid
by kids who weren't messing about.
338
00:20:17,085 ---> 00:20:19,734
You don't have to convince me.
I believe in choice, remember?
339
00:20:19,770 ---> 00:20:23,095
But I don't really. Plus, it's not
choice. It's purchasing power.
340
00:20:23,131 ---> 00:20:25,851
That's part of choice
once you've paid your tax.
341
00:20:27,175 ---> 00:20:31,062
See? I don't need us to
agree on everything.
342
00:20:31,098 ---> 00:20:34,418
I just want somebody who's not
an arsehole and that I can trust.
343
00:20:36,294 ---> 00:20:38,426
Ever think you might have
chosen the wrong career?
344
00:20:40,160 ---> 00:20:41,240
No.
345
00:20:59,222 ---> 00:21:02,427
Don't be fooled, Mabel.
I hate and despise you.
346
00:21:03,048 ---> 00:21:04,688
The sooner I'm on my own again,
the better.
347
00:21:17,282 ---> 00:21:18,435
Heather, it's me.
348
00:21:19,223 ---> 00:21:22,332
You'll have seen in the news about
the possible power complications.
349
00:21:23,305 ---> 00:21:26,065
Take them seriously.
Get yourself a wind-up radio...
350
00:21:27,660 ---> 00:21:30,620
Plenty of food and water.
Extra fuel for the car.
351
00:21:34,551 ---> 00:21:39,257
In spite of your successful attempts to
destroy my relationship with the kids,
352
00:21:39,519 ---> 00:21:40,960
I love them very much.
353
00:21:43,902 ---> 00:21:46,914
It may be difficult for the next
few weeks so prepare yourself.
354
00:21:54,620 ---> 00:21:56,587
The situation is Paris is causing chaos.
355
00:21:56,623 ---> 00:21:58,141
They're sending more and more our way.
356
00:21:59,379 ---> 00:22:00,760
We're running out of slots.
357
00:22:00,796 ---> 00:22:03,466
A couple of flights have
declared fuel emergencies.
358
00:22:08,405 ---> 00:22:09,538
...I don't know where I am.
359
00:22:09,574 ---> 00:22:11,724
They're still getting false alerts
and losing comms.
360
00:22:12,214 ---> 00:22:15,061
Some are getting so confused,
they don't know where they are anymore.
361
00:22:15,431 ---> 00:22:17,351
Try and prioritise. It's all we can do.
362
00:22:28,433 ---> 00:22:31,505
We are treating this as a
rising tide level of emergency
363
00:22:31,541 ---> 00:22:35,701
in so far as we have a level of
advance warning of the threat involved.
364
00:22:35,737 ---> 00:22:37,241
But at the same time,
365
00:22:37,277 ---> 00:22:40,075
I'm afraid we have very
little guidance from London
366
00:22:40,111 ---> 00:22:43,791
as to what, if anything, is actually
going to happen tomorrow.
367
00:22:44,045 ---> 00:22:45,127
If the worst does happen,
368
00:22:45,163 ---> 00:22:48,160
and we are without power for
a lengthy period of time,
369
00:22:48,331 ---> 00:22:50,062
I'll chair and host Gold Command
370
00:22:50,098 ---> 00:22:52,300
from the Royal Northumberland
Hospital near Hexham.
371
00:22:52,336 ---> 00:22:55,480
Our main priorities will be
maintaining healthcare,
372
00:22:55,606 ---> 00:22:57,891
ensuring protection for the vulnerable,
373
00:22:57,927 ---> 00:23:01,492
safeguarding key sites
and essential fuel supplies,
374
00:23:01,528 ---> 00:23:04,004
while maintaining law and order.
375
00:23:04,221 ---> 00:23:06,525
Perhaps our biggest challenge will be
376
00:23:06,561 ---> 00:23:09,094
getting vital staff to
their places of work.
377
00:23:10,260 ---> 00:23:13,625
Now, you all have a copy of
the civil emergencies guidelines
378
00:23:13,661 ---> 00:23:16,986
but I imagine you also
have some questions.
379
00:23:17,282 ---> 00:23:19,766
One at a time, please.
380
00:23:20,225 ---> 00:23:22,227
How real is the threat
from the solar storm?
381
00:23:22,263 ---> 00:23:23,320
Oh, it's real.
382
00:23:23,785 ---> 00:23:26,010
They've convened my local
Resilience Forum for the morning.
383
00:23:26,046 ---> 00:23:28,514
It might only cause minor disruption.
384
00:23:29,025 ---> 00:23:30,514
A good chance of nothing at all.
385
00:23:33,030 ---> 00:23:35,475
So a funny thing's happened.
386
00:23:35,820 ---> 00:23:37,740
Funny ha-ha or funny peculiar?
387
00:23:40,360 ---> 00:23:41,934
When I was reporting in Bosnia,
388
00:23:41,970 ---> 00:23:46,115
there was a local translator working
for the UN forces around Tuzla.
389
00:23:48,195 ---> 00:23:54,345
His sister was in Visegrad and when
the local Serbs took that town...
390
00:23:54,587 ---> 00:23:56,869
..that was not a good place
to be a young woman.
391
00:23:57,985 ---> 00:24:00,789
- Nowhere is during war.
- Visegrad was hell.
392
00:24:03,447 ---> 00:24:04,834
Stuff went on there that...
393
00:24:09,061 ---> 00:24:11,588
It's why I can't tolerate people
who take what we have for granted.
394
00:24:14,219 ---> 00:24:15,353
So what happened?
395
00:24:16,566 ---> 00:24:20,286
He went to look for her
and he just vanished.
396
00:24:22,075 ---> 00:24:23,625
I never saw him again.
397
00:24:25,968 ---> 00:24:28,733
- Until now.
- He's turned up?
398
00:24:28,769 ---> 00:24:31,894
- Literally on my doorstep.
- Did he find his sister?
399
00:24:33,264 ---> 00:24:34,270
I don't know.
400
00:24:35,191 ---> 00:24:36,667
We haven't spoken properly.
401
00:24:38,744 ---> 00:24:40,465
But you're going to, right?
402
00:24:44,336 ---> 00:24:46,025
It was so long ago.
403
00:24:49,437 ---> 00:24:52,849
Oh, come and work with me.
What larks...!
404
00:24:52,911 ---> 00:24:54,009
Yeah.
405
00:24:54,155 ---> 00:24:55,872
That is not going to happen.
406
00:24:56,570 ---> 00:24:58,913
There will categorically be no larks.
407
00:24:58,949 ---> 00:25:00,365
Yes, there will!
408
00:25:00,793 ---> 00:25:03,353
I want a secure videolink to
all police Gold Commanders.
409
00:25:03,389 ---> 00:25:04,911
We also need to ensure
410
00:25:04,947 ---> 00:25:07,657
that all essential staff can
be brought to places of work...
411
00:25:08,913 ---> 00:25:10,107
I'll get back to you.
412
00:25:11,224 ---> 00:25:13,280
Air Traffic Control
are reporting a Mayday
413
00:25:13,316 ---> 00:25:15,341
from a diverted flight
from Malaga to Oslo.
414
00:25:15,377 ---> 00:25:18,573
Up until ten minutes ago it had contact
but now they've lost all comms.
415
00:25:18,609 ---> 00:25:20,399
OK. Well, where was
the plane re-routed to?
416
00:25:20,435 ---> 00:25:22,202
Newcastle.
They're assuming it's close to...
417
00:25:22,238 ---> 00:25:23,619
Well, let's not make assumptions
418
00:25:23,655 ---> 00:25:25,656
when it comes to large metal
objects full of jet fuel.
419
00:25:25,692 ---> 00:25:27,846
That's the problem though.
It's not full of jet fuel.
420
00:25:27,882 ---> 00:25:29,163
They think it's running on fumes.
421
00:25:30,307 ---> 00:25:32,862
Get me Bob Jones at NATS.
Patch him over to the briefing room.
422
00:25:36,192 ---> 00:25:38,318
OK. Alpha 075, do you want to divert?
423
00:25:43,345 ---> 00:25:45,308
Please respond, Alpha 075.
424
00:25:46,241 ---> 00:25:49,601
I am declaring a fuel emergency.
I repeat. A fuel emergency.
425
00:25:50,029 ---> 00:25:53,509
Alpha 075. How many souls do you have
on board and what is your fuel status?
426
00:25:53,927 ---> 00:25:57,252
295 souls on board.
Current fuel status is half an hour.
427
00:25:57,288 ---> 00:26:00,088
We spent too long over France.
We won't make Newcastle.
428
00:26:00,705 ---> 00:26:03,244
Believe me, Dominic.
I did everything in my power.
429
00:26:03,280 ---> 00:26:04,821
I begged him not to do it.
430
00:26:06,349 ---> 00:26:08,594
I told him it would
come back to haunt him.
431
00:26:09,644 ---> 00:26:10,861
It will.
432
00:26:11,492 ---> 00:26:13,774
Served deep frozen.
433
00:26:14,436 ---> 00:26:16,961
And that total bitch Anna Marshall.
434
00:26:17,207 ---> 00:26:20,487
Well, they were both in
the Tory Reform Group at Balliol.
435
00:26:21,941 ---> 00:26:23,765
You were at Christ Church, weren't you?
436
00:26:23,801 ---> 00:26:25,197
No, I was at Oriel.
437
00:26:26,532 ---> 00:26:28,697
Rumours they had a bit of a thing once.
438
00:26:29,225 ---> 00:26:31,824
I mean, let's be fair.
She's a handsome woman.
439
00:26:31,860 ---> 00:26:33,183
I mean, you definitely would.
440
00:26:39,078 ---> 00:26:42,118
So, who are they replacing me with?
441
00:26:43,034 ---> 00:26:45,524
She mentioned Francine Bridge.
442
00:26:46,768 ---> 00:26:48,843
You've got to be fucking kidding me.
443
00:26:48,879 ---> 00:26:52,524
I'd be surprised if even Robert
lets her go ahead with that one.
444
00:26:53,406 ---> 00:26:55,334
When are you going to make
your move, Archie?
445
00:26:56,642 ---> 00:26:59,145
Well, you know what they say
about shooting the King.
446
00:27:00,717 ---> 00:27:02,898
We've picked him up again.
He's over Lincolnshire.
447
00:27:02,934 ---> 00:27:04,596
He won't make it to Newcastle now.
448
00:27:04,921 ---> 00:27:08,289
There must be some way, Command.
One of the RAF bases.
449
00:27:08,469 ---> 00:27:10,827
-Coningsby if necessary.
- How about Coningsby?
450
00:27:11,226 ---> 00:27:15,346
Alpha 075, I have new vectors for you.
Sending you to RAF Coningsby.
451
00:27:16,185 ---> 00:27:18,358
No. We won't make that. We need to land.
452
00:27:22,335 ---> 00:27:24,397
_
453
00:27:24,721 ---> 00:27:25,721
_
454
00:27:25,757 ---> 00:27:26,757
_
455
00:27:26,793 ---> 00:27:29,948
_
456
00:27:31,967 ---> 00:27:36,211
That's exactly what I said to them.
We don't have the officers...
457
00:27:38,345 ---> 00:27:39,826
Jesus Christ!
458
00:27:40,465 ---> 00:27:43,581
A plane went over really low.
I can't see any lights.
459
00:27:44,745 ---> 00:27:46,786
_
460
00:27:46,822 ---> 00:27:48,329
_
461
00:27:48,834 ---> 00:27:50,327
_
462
00:28:06,154 ---> 00:28:07,500
Oh, my God.
463
00:28:08,204 ---> 00:28:10,418
I think he's crashed into the motorway.
464
00:28:15,316 ---> 00:28:16,682
Fuck.
465
00:28:41,825 ---> 00:28:43,351
This is Chief Constable Collier.
466
00:28:43,945 ---> 00:28:47,270
We've got an emergency on the A1
just past Newton Aycliffe.
467
00:28:47,785 ---> 00:28:50,229
A plane has crashed on the road.
468
00:28:50,585 ---> 00:28:52,945
We need to declare a major incident.
469
00:29:05,740 ---> 00:29:09,660
Sir, help is on its way. OK?
Help's coming.
470
00:29:46,225 ---> 00:29:48,541
Ma'am, ma'am. Help is coming.
471
00:29:49,077 ---> 00:29:50,962
Help is on its way, OK?
472
00:29:50,998 ---> 00:29:52,596
- My baby! I can't move.
- Your baby?
473
00:29:52,632 ---> 00:29:54,352
Wait there. Don't worry.
474
00:30:21,994 ---> 00:30:23,219
Where is she?
475
00:30:24,185 ---> 00:30:26,265
Do you know? I'll find her. Don't worry.
476
00:30:26,771 ---> 00:30:28,576
Don't worry. I'm gonna find her. OK?
477
00:30:28,612 ---> 00:30:30,004
It's gonna be OK.
478
00:30:32,385 ---> 00:30:34,305
I can hear her. I can hear her. It's OK.
479
00:30:43,179 ---> 00:30:45,744
I can see her! It's OK. I've found her.
480
00:30:46,505 ---> 00:30:47,595
She's OK.
481
00:30:56,560 ---> 00:30:58,520
My baby, please!
482
00:31:01,761 ---> 00:31:02,885
She's here.
483
00:31:27,200 ---> 00:31:28,263
OK, thanks.
484
00:31:28,360 ---> 00:31:30,001
Where in Portugal?
485
00:31:31,825 ---> 00:31:34,168
That's good of you.
I really appreciate it.
486
00:31:34,865 ---> 00:31:36,320
Yeah. Bye.
487
00:31:59,450 ---> 00:32:02,450
_
488
00:32:08,160 ---> 00:32:09,649
What does Tuzla mean?
489
00:32:09,807 ---> 00:32:12,146
Tuzla. In Bosnia.
490
00:32:12,182 ---> 00:32:13,781
Yeah, just you go ahead.
491
00:32:16,723 ---> 00:32:19,727
- Not bad.
- This was my favourite thing.
492
00:32:25,109 ---> 00:32:26,642
That tastes of being young.
493
00:32:27,789 ---> 00:32:29,994
So is the sun going to blow up?
494
00:32:30,513 ---> 00:32:33,825
No! Dad's flight's been
diverted to Portugal.
495
00:32:33,861 ---> 00:32:34,873
Then what?
496
00:32:34,909 ---> 00:32:36,173
Then I don't know,
497
00:32:36,209 ---> 00:32:37,672
he'll have to wait until it's
safe to fly again, I suppose.
498
00:32:37,785 ---> 00:32:41,305
Funny how it all happens when you
lot fall behind in the polls again.
499
00:32:41,341 ---> 00:32:42,446
Hello to you too.
500
00:32:42,482 ---> 00:32:44,972
Actually, it's because we're
about to invade Venezuela.
501
00:32:45,008 ---> 00:32:47,142
You won't read about that
in the mainstream media.
502
00:32:47,178 ---> 00:32:50,057
- They've got oil.
- They're also eating dead cats.
503
00:32:51,004 ---> 00:32:54,049
Look, I might have to stay up
in town a few nights this week.
504
00:32:54,085 ---> 00:32:56,965
Just until this fake news blows over.
505
00:32:57,930 ---> 00:32:59,062
Spoon!
506
00:33:02,665 ---> 00:33:03,725
Yep.
507
00:33:08,401 ---> 00:33:09,995
Oh, God. Where.
508
00:33:11,564 ---> 00:33:13,155
- Are there any survivors?
- Dad?
509
00:33:13,191 ---> 00:33:14,898
It's fine. It's not his plane.
510
00:33:15,833 ---> 00:33:17,005
Yep. Go on.
511
00:33:17,899 ---> 00:33:20,195
So, they're bringing
the rest of the planes
512
00:33:20,231 ---> 00:33:22,171
into the nearest
available landing points.
513
00:33:22,621 ---> 00:33:24,634
So far no further incidents.
514
00:33:25,300 ---> 00:33:27,110
If only we'd grounded the planes.
515
00:33:27,348 ---> 00:33:29,102
It would have made no difference at all.
516
00:33:29,765 ---> 00:33:31,713
The plane was already in the air.
517
00:33:31,987 ---> 00:33:34,920
It crashed because the sun took
out the glide paths in France
518
00:33:34,956 ---> 00:33:36,427
or it would've landed safely.
519
00:33:36,865 ---> 00:33:39,985
You made the right decision.
For the right reasons.
520
00:33:40,851 ---> 00:33:42,911
Funny feeling that's not
how others will see it.
521
00:33:42,947 ---> 00:33:44,952
We're not others though, are we?
522
00:33:46,303 ---> 00:33:48,216
We're the ones that have
to make the decisions.
523
00:33:48,292 ---> 00:33:50,132
While others talk about them in pubs.
524
00:33:52,605 ---> 00:33:54,380
Keep me updated on casualties.
525
00:34:09,887 ---> 00:34:11,201
Hiya, darling.
526
00:34:11,950 ---> 00:34:13,670
Mum. Mum. It's Georgia.
527
00:34:13,706 ---> 00:34:15,626
I'm at the hospital.
528
00:34:15,662 ---> 00:34:19,608
They can't bring her round, Mum.
She's not breathing. It's a nightmare.
529
00:34:19,644 ---> 00:34:22,529
Ellie, just calm down. Calm down.
530
00:34:22,838 ---> 00:34:23,929
What happened?
531
00:34:23,965 ---> 00:34:27,538
We've been up all night, Mum.
We were taking stuff.
532
00:34:27,865 ---> 00:34:29,444
What are you on about?
What kind of stuff?
533
00:34:29,480 ---> 00:34:32,400
Oh, God! Mum, it's all my fault!
534
00:34:33,368 ---> 00:34:35,328
It's all my fault.535
00:34:35,755 ---> 00:34:38,849
Robert! Ellie, listen to me.
536
00:34:39,118 ---> 00:34:42,878
You need to keep it together. And I
don't want you to speak to anyone.
537
00:34:44,059 ---> 00:34:46,050
- OK.
- Sweetheart, I love you.
538
00:34:46,086 ---> 00:34:47,592
I'll be there as soon as I can.
539
00:34:48,176 ---> 00:34:50,096
OK. I love you. Bye.
540
00:34:57,207 ---> 00:34:58,392
What's happened?
541
00:34:59,796 ---> 00:35:02,810
Ellie's friend Georgia is in a coma.
542
00:35:03,568 ---> 00:35:04,568
- What?
- Drugs.
543
00:35:04,604 ---> 00:35:06,975
They've been up all night
doing drugs after the graduation.
544
00:35:07,095 ---> 00:35:08,045
Christ.
545
00:35:09,058 ---> 00:35:11,921
- She's OK though? Ellie's not...
- She's in bits.
546
00:35:12,563 ---> 00:35:13,788
God, poor kid.
547
00:35:17,649 ---> 00:35:21,734
The Met Office say the CME's
trajectory is faster than anticipated.
548
00:35:21,770 ---> 00:35:24,015
I don't have a fucking clue
what that means.
549
00:35:24,051 ---> 00:35:25,891
It means I have to reconvene COBRA.
550
00:35:25,927 ---> 00:35:28,381
Our daughter is in trouble, Robert!
551
00:35:29,221 ---> 00:35:30,266
Look.
552
00:35:31,887 ---> 00:35:34,367
We've had a plane crashed on the A1.
553
00:35:35,107 ---> 00:35:38,312
We have a solar storm that could
wipe out our power supply.
554
00:35:39,145 ---> 00:35:40,827
I just don't have time for this!
555
00:35:47,928 ---> 00:35:50,733
OK, I'll go and get her.
Leave it with me. Go on.
556
00:35:51,997 ---> 00:35:53,790
I'll text you with any news.
557
00:35:53,825 ---> 00:35:56,830
I'll have Peter Mott come
first thing in the morning.
558
00:35:57,135 ---> 00:36:00,350
- He has to be across this.
- That would be a really good idea.
559
00:36:00,658 ---> 00:36:02,369
Leave it with us. It'll be OK.
560
00:36:02,745 ---> 00:36:04,239
It'll be OK.
561
00:36:25,485 ---> 00:36:29,932
Accident investigators are at the
site of yesterday's tragedy on the A1.
562
00:36:29,968 ---> 00:36:32,082
There has been speculation
that the crash was caused
563
00:36:32,118 ---> 00:36:33,488
by a particle blizzard,
564
00:36:33,524 ---> 00:36:36,129
associated with a solar storm
and fears are mounting
565
00:36:36,165 ---> 00:36:38,488
that it is just the start
of the full-blown chaos...
566
00:36:38,532 ---> 00:36:41,100
OK, so we're going to set up
the strategic command centre
567
00:36:41,136 ---> 00:36:42,269
at the hospital.
568
00:36:42,611 ---> 00:36:45,496
Lot of ghouls are trying to get to
the site and blocking B roads.
569
00:36:45,569 ---> 00:36:47,057
What's the status with the survivors?
570
00:36:47,093 ---> 00:36:49,787
The pilot did pretty well
and saved the majority.
571
00:36:49,936 ---> 00:36:52,390
Current fatality count is 25.
572
00:36:52,741 ---> 00:36:55,610
Expected to rise but not significantly.
573
00:36:55,645 ---> 00:36:59,777
We have 17 in intensive care,
six of them are touch and go.
574
00:36:59,955 ---> 00:37:02,280
The rest are mostly multiple fractures.
575
00:37:02,605 ---> 00:37:06,165
We have three burns victims
from cars the plane hit.
576
00:37:08,692 ---> 00:37:09,913
I er...
577
00:37:11,783 ---> 00:37:14,308
I picked a baby out of the wreckage.
578
00:37:15,108 ---> 00:37:17,885
The dad is in an induced coma.
579
00:37:18,898 ---> 00:37:21,263
The mum is about to have
an operation on her back
580
00:37:21,299 ---> 00:37:23,194
to see if they can stop her
from being paralysed.
581
00:37:27,005 ---> 00:37:29,411
It really wouldn't be a great time
to lose power right now.
582
00:37:30,038 ---> 00:37:31,289
OK, Stuart.
583
00:38:01,813 ---> 00:38:05,979
OK, first things first. Tell her not
to say a word until I've spoken to her.
584
00:38:06,725 ---> 00:38:09,396
- Going the wrong way, aren't you, Peter?
- Always, Archie.
585
00:38:11,083 ---> 00:38:12,352
I'm on my way.
586
00:38:13,473 ---> 00:38:16,028
Stuart Collier's the police gold
in Hexham?
587
00:38:16,064 ---> 00:38:18,404
He's good. Young but level-headed.
588
00:38:18,685 ---> 00:38:20,741
The main problem is
getting the medical staff
589
00:38:20,777 ---> 00:38:22,293
around the road blockage
caused by the plane.
590
00:38:22,329 ---> 00:38:23,279
OK.
591
00:38:29,990 ---> 00:38:30,975
Yep.
592
00:38:31,365 ---> 00:38:33,125
Where's the Prime Minister?
593
00:38:34,378 ---> 00:38:36,333
He's on his way over from No.10.
594
00:38:36,913 ---> 00:38:38,917
A word to the wise, Anna.
595
00:38:38,953 ---> 00:38:41,553
As you know,
I have the highest admiration for you.
596
00:38:41,589 ---> 00:38:42,588
Get on with it.
597
00:38:43,427 ---> 00:38:45,331
I don't care how far you two go back
598
00:38:45,367 ---> 00:38:47,715
or how much you feel the
party needs a makeover.
599
00:38:47,751 ---> 00:38:50,942
Put Francine Bridge in the policy
unit, even making the coffee,
600
00:38:50,978 ---> 00:38:54,367
and I will give you a lesson in
payback you will not forget in a hurry.
601
00:38:54,833 ---> 00:38:56,163
Thanks, Archie.
602
00:38:56,199 ---> 00:38:59,172
And in a similar spirit, get your hand
off my arm and back the fuck off.
603
00:38:59,803 ---> 00:39:03,116
I'm not some little volunteer you can
get handsy with on the battle bus.
604
00:39:05,054 ---> 00:39:07,134
You just crossed a line, Anna.
605
00:39:10,059 ---> 00:39:12,384
When he goes, which will be sooner
than you think,
606
00:39:12,420 ---> 00:39:16,065
he will at least be able to do some
lucrative after-dinner speaking.
607
00:39:16,101 ---> 00:39:18,581
You won't be able
to get yourself arrested.
608
00:39:20,810 ---> 00:39:24,530
I am feeling both positive
and patriotic this morning.
609
00:39:24,566 ---> 00:39:26,783
I've got afeeling I'm
going to be a bottle of Scotch
610
00:39:26,819 ---> 00:39:28,696
to the good by the end of this meeting.
611
00:39:30,037 ---> 00:39:31,591
Better find out, hadn't we?
612
00:39:36,035 ---> 00:39:39,729
There are two possible impacts
on the grid when the storm hits.
613
00:39:39,765 ---> 00:39:41,795
The first is voltage instability.
614
00:39:42,289 ---> 00:39:46,469
Now, we need that to
stay running at 50 Hertz.
615
00:39:46,536 ---> 00:39:49,971
If it goes a couple of points above
or below we'll start getting trips.
616
00:39:50,513 ---> 00:39:53,438
The other problem is burn-out damage
to transformers
617
00:39:53,614 ---> 00:39:56,110
if the power from the storm surges
into the network.
618
00:39:56,146 ---> 00:40:00,666
OK, Prime Minister. We're pretty
close to getting the orientation now.
619
00:40:06,005 ---> 00:40:09,565
We're getting the data from
the satellite position at L1.
620
00:40:15,282 ---> 00:40:18,785
I'm afraid the news is not what
we were hoping for, Prime Minister.
621
00:40:18,934 ---> 00:40:22,820
We can expect a massive geomagnetic
stormsurge in the coming hours.
622
00:40:22,856 ---> 00:40:24,087
It's Hot South.
623
00:40:26,164 ---> 00:40:28,405
There goes my Lagavulin.
624
00:40:29,765 ---> 00:40:32,485
- Upgrade threat level to critical.
- Here comes the sun.
625
00:40:37,309 ---> 00:40:40,177
A major incident has been
declared in this hospital.
626
00:40:40,213 ---> 00:40:42,218
We are receiving multiple casualties.
627
00:40:42,254 ---> 00:40:44,890
Non-urgent cases will not be seen.
628
00:40:44,926 ---> 00:40:48,011
Await instructions on transfers
to other sites.
629
00:40:48,259 ---> 00:40:50,179
Thank you for your patience.
630
00:41:07,923 ---> 00:41:09,143
Bollocks.
631
00:41:09,685 ---> 00:41:10,922
That's not good.
632
00:41:20,603 ---> 00:41:23,606
The emergency generators are
detecting the voltage instability.
633
00:41:23,642 ---> 00:41:26,807
Do we have a direct link to the
National Grid command centre?
634
00:41:26,843 ---> 00:41:29,043
I think they're a bit busy
down there right now.
635
00:41:31,024 ---> 00:41:35,434
OK, er, early evidence is that
coastal areas have taken a massive hit
636
00:41:35,725 ---> 00:41:36,934
and this is just the start.
637
00:41:36,970 ---> 00:41:39,351
The surges will just keep
coming like tsunamis.
638
00:41:39,394 ---> 00:41:43,109
- What about the rest of the world?
- No clear picture as yet.
639
00:41:43,219 ---> 00:41:44,781
Although early reports say
640
00:41:44,817 ---> 00:41:48,819
that France and Spain are
almost totally blacked out.
641
00:41:49,370 ---> 00:41:52,378
Three transformers are out already
and that is set to rise.
642
00:41:52,414 ---> 00:41:54,650
The entire system is on
the brink of collapse
643
00:41:54,686 ---> 00:41:57,611
and blackouts are now imminent
across all major cities.
644
00:41:57,796 ---> 00:42:00,761
I am sorry to say that
the power of this storm
645
00:42:00,797 ---> 00:42:03,298
is far worse than even
our most pessimistic forecast.
646
00:42:06,229 ---> 00:42:07,828
I will now speak to the Palace
647
00:42:07,864 ---> 00:42:10,155
so that Her Majesty can
authorise the necessary powers
648
00:42:10,191 ---> 00:42:12,859
under the 2004 Civil Contingencies Act.
649
00:42:14,298 ---> 00:42:16,105
This is now a national emergency
650
00:42:16,805 ---> 00:42:19,231
and COBRA will remain active
until its conclusion.
651
00:42:34,394 ---> 00:42:35,582
Anna, it's me.
652
00:42:35,706 ---> 00:42:37,638
I've been giving it some thought.
Call me back.
653
00:43:03,932 ---> 00:43:07,932
