Do we have an ID on this guy, Bravo One? 185 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,560 Thanks. 186 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,640 Matthew Plowden, he's a freelance journalist. 187 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:08,080 You should think about lowering your profile. 188 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,600 He destroyed my family. 189 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,880 I have nothing left to lose. 190 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,680 Your life? 191 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,080 I'm not frightened any more. 192 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,080 You're brave. I'm not frightened. 193 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,960 But that isn't the same as brave. 194 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,800 It's a disgrace that we're rolling out the red carpet to these murderers. 195 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,840 But I'm going to make sure everybody knows what's going on. 196 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,600 We'll have to deal with this. He could cause real problems. 197 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,600 Thank you for your help, Mr Plowden. I'm only doing what's right. 198 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,200 Bye. Bye. 199 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,400 'Visual on Bibi, heading west on Clements Street. 200 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,200 'She's picked up a tail.' 'Description.' 201 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,360 'White male, blue jacket.' You take the journalist, I'll deal with Bibi. 202 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,400 'She's turned south on Drummond. The tail's still with her. 203 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,800 'He's closing on her, Alpha One. 204 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,160 'This looks like a hit.' 205 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,040 Are you all right? Don't worry, I'm a nurse, I'll deal with it, it's fine. 206 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,560 Tell me who you're working for. 207 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,760 Go near Bibi again and I'll bring my people next time. 208 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,760 Can I have a word? Who are you? 209 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,360 Quick chat in the diary room, Mr Plowden? Why are you harassing me? 210 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,040 They'll be dying of envy over at the New Statesman. Badge of honour. 211 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,400 You've had a file on me for years. 212 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,360 Think of the satisfaction in telling your wife she was wrong! 213 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,240 It was only your last conversation. 214 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:22,320 Come on, let me in, I just want to talk to you. We'll talk over there, if you don't mind. 215 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:23,840 All right. 216 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,800 Watch out for snipers. 217 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,200 Nobody wants to be cosying up to the Tazbeks, 218 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,120 but the energy situation is dire. Not as dire as the Tazbek human rights record. 219 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,440 But who cares when cheap gas is at stake, right? If our power stations stop running, 220 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:44,640 we can kiss goodbye to economic recovery and people will die. People who MATTER will die, you mean. 221 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,560 British people, as opposed to foreign people from some faraway place. 222 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:53,560 Well, luckily my job description means I only have to worry about British deaths, Mr Plowden. 223 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,800 I'm advising you not to interfere any further in this matter. 224 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,120 Or I'll get a midnight knock on the door? 225 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:06,360 No, I think her Majesty's Revenue and Customs tend to call during office hours. 226 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,240 Hopefully, it will be a real charmless jobsworth. 227 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,920 So, who's been feeding you information on Tazbekstan? 228 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,400 Reveal my source to M15, of course I will(!) OK, 229 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,680 good time to organise your receipts box 230 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,200 and every single income statement. 231 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:28,520 I shall be posting this conversation on my blog as soon as I get inside. 232 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,560 Bloody internet. 233 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,440 You know he's going to kill her, don't you? 234 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,480 Bibi Saparova. I want to know where Plowden is getting his information, 235 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,080 I want Bibi to shut up and I want leverage over the Tazbeks. 236 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,160 We have things in this country that they don't have in Tazbekstan. 237 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:55,120 Giving them up for gas, it offends my sense of national dignity. The gas running out will lead to 238 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,040 more deaths than any terror attack Al Qaeda have mounted so far. 239 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:04,080 No campaigning journalist, nor poet with a grudge is going to threaten our energy security 240 00:17:04,120 --> 00:17:07,480 while you and I have anything to do with it. Are we in agreement on that? 241 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,760 Absolutely. 242 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,480 Who was tailing Bibi Saparova? A Tazbek hit team? It looks like 243 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,200 they were trying to abduct her rather than kill her. 244 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:23,080 I'm assuming they wanted to deliver her to Thumper personally. We can't let that happen. 245 00:17:23,120 --> 00:17:25,640 Have you seen Harry's mood recently? 246 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,760 He'll see protecting Bibi as a luxury the nation can't afford right now. 247 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,480 Ros, Harry's always troubled. He chooses his frown with his tie in the morning. 248 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,280 No, this is different. 249 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,880 He still hasn't resolved the situation with Ruth. Until he does, 250 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,280 he'll take an even grimmer view of any human rights activists 251 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,040 or lefty journalists that get in the way of energy crisis talks than me. 252 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,160 Oh, come on, it can't be that bad? 253 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,640 The Government has described as malicious tittle-tattle rumours 254 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,600 that it's to call for the lifting of an EU arms embargo in Tazbekstan. 255 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,680 Campaigning journalist Matthew Plowden, however, 256 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,600 told us earlier that the Tazbek human rights record 257 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:08,200 won't go away just because "we've messed up our energy policy and need their gas". 258 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:14,120 Bloody hell. What is it? Some awkward-squad MP is putting down 259 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,720 an Early Day Motion about our deal with Tazbekstan. Saying what? 260 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,080 Setting out a general marker about a concern for human rights 261 00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:23,560 in any agreement. This is that journalist, isn't it? 262 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,280 I've got that internet cafe on a permanent pick-up now. 263 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:32,600 Why does he log in there? He's using his own computer. Makes him feel Woodward and Bernstein probably. 264 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,160 Even though it's miles easier for us to monitor him in a public place. 265 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,040 Who told him about us getting the EU arms sanctions lifted? 266 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:43,960 He uses social networking sites a lot - the source must be an online friend. Find out who that is. 267 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,240 And Jo, can you go and visit Bibi and keep her quiet before she gets herself killed. 268 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,080 Try and persuade her to take 269 00:18:50,120 --> 00:18:53,880 a long holiday or something until these negotiations are concluded. 270 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,200 Sure. 271 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,720 DOORBELL RINGS 272 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,280 Miss Saparova? Yes. I'm Gaby Fuller from the Metropolitan Police. 273 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,200 Can I have a quick word? 274 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,280 Yes. Thank you. 275 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:38,880 You could be at risk if you continue to campaign against Rustam Urazov's presence in this country. 276 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,560 Britain's new best friend. I'm trying to help you. I don't need your help. 277 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,160 I need justice. I understand that... You understand nothing. 278 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,760 BANGING 279 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,520 Boys from the estate. 280 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,600 They sometimes come and do this because they know I live alone. 281 00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,600 If you keep following Urazov around, your life will be at risk. 282 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,240 And if he had killed every member of your family... 283 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,800 would you just shut up and go away? 284 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,720 We're running on empty now, Harry. 285 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,280 A few days at best. 286 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,520 What will you do? We'll start with a programme of rolling power cuts. 287 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,560 Three to five hours in different places. It's been costed? 288 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:30,000 Billions off the economy, a huge blow to investor confidence. 289 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,520 The deal is going ahead though. Slowly. 290 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,000 But it's our last hope now. 291 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,920 The Tazbeks can sense our desperation and have started to up their demands. 292 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,920 Time's running out, we must take the initiative so I want to know what 293 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,760 the Tazbek delegation are saying outside of the negotiations. 294 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:52,720 Bugging the hotel isn't an option - we're looking at other possibilities. Strip joints. 295 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,760 Taking one for the team there, Lucas? 296 00:20:56,320 --> 00:21:00,840 The Tazbeks are using the strip club for post-negotiations R and R. We know that it's a mafia haunt 297 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,120 so it's likely that we'll find Thumper's hitman there. OK, I'll go and take a look. 298 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,840 Check out the possibility of fitting listening devices. 299 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,080 MUSIC BLARES 300 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,920 Tariq's pretty good with the tech stuff. 301 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,760 He built a miniature high-resolution camera into my watch. 302 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,600 Yes, we've got it now. The hitman is Gosguly Garadanow. 303 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,400 He runs drugs and girls out of the club. Old army buddy of Thumper. 304 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,440 I think we'll know him as Flopsy. 305 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,440 He was the one who was tailing Bibi. 306 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,960 They're lining something else up. Thumper had a copy of the newspaper Plowden writes for. 307 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:30,240 I said to shut that bloody journalist up. We're MI5, not the Stoke Newington branch of the Green Party. 308 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,040 I'd like to think we can play dirty sometimes. Thumper's the one playing dirty. 309 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,600 He thinks because we need his gas, he can do what he likes. 310 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,840 Yeah, well, up to a point he's right. I'll go lean on Plowden harder. 311 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,840 Let him know the score. Threaten his career and livelihood. 312 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,160 Often does the trick with soft-centred media types. 313 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:49,800 Shall I warn Thumper off? You're supposed to be Special Adviser to the Home Secretary. 314 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,040 He knows what I am. He's not stupid. All right. 315 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,120 But very, very delicately, Ros. 316 00:22:55,160 --> 00:23:00,160 Let me be absolutely clear, our energy security trumps everything at this point. 317 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,360 You might want to take a look at this. What is it? Lip-reading software from the strip club. 318 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,800 It's giving us a live translation from the Russian by typing the code in. 319 00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:12,920 They're talking in euphemisms. 320 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,240 Because of Plowden's press campaign against them... 321 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,120 ..They're gonna take him out. Where is he now? 322 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,920 We're running a tracker on his mobile and playing it through CCTV feeds. 323 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,920 Do it quicker! 324 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:31,960 He's going to the internet cafe. Maybe he wants to meet with Bibi? 325 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,080 They're starting to pick off their targets. Stay in contact. 326 00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:49,120 Lucas, Plowden's back in the cafe. 327 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,160 Keep a visual on him. I'm nearly there. 328 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,920 Yeah, will do. He's erm... Hold on a minute... 329 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,760 Flopsy's in the cafe! 330 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,440 Get him out of there now! Warn him! 331 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:32,920 'Lucas, you're too late.' 332 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:02,520 Do you have any plans for tonight, Mr Urazov? Do YOU? 333 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:06,320 I'm not really one for the nightlife. 334 00:25:06,360 --> 00:25:08,880 You are worried for me, no? 335 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:14,120 Why do you say that? The way your eyes keep looking to the door. 336 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,120 You think the Russians will send somebody after me. 337 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,560 It's a distinct possibility, yes. 338 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:24,560 I like to think it is because you have erm, 339 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,520 what is the expression, you have, er, you have "taken a shine" to me. 340 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,240 I'm married. You know... 341 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,160 ..I did hear about the journalist that was killed. 342 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,200 The one spreading lies about me. 343 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:50,840 Yes. And his widow is saying that it was the British security services. 344 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,280 We don't usually kill troublesome journalists. 345 00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:01,560 Yeah, not everybody has the freedoms we have in my country. 346 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,880 You don't have carte blanche, Mr Urazov. Why, what will you do? 347 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:12,120 Send us home and say you no longer need our gas? 348 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,840 Of course I know I don't have carte blanche. 349 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:21,440 Good. But I would also expect you not to pay too much attentions to my business activities here, 350 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,080 at such a... 351 00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:25,560 delicate time in talks. 352 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,840 I must take them out... 353 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,560 ..entertain them. 354 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,160 Find them girls. 355 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,360 Would you like any additional security? 356 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,480 Don't you worry about the Russians. 357 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,680 We know them a lot better than you do. 358 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:49,880 Good evening. 359 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,120 The point is, Matthew Plowden was a British citizen. 360 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,240 Plowden stood up and painted a massive target on himself. 361 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,480 Sometimes you get a press award and sometimes something quite different. 362 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,640 The person who had him killed is openly gloating about it. 363 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:19,040 It'll be Bibi next. I know that, Jo. And I have told Thumper that he does not have carte blanche. 364 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,240 Thumper is making it quite clear what the price of keeping him on board is. 365 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,080 That's a price that keeps going up. Without the Tazbek gas we'll pay a much higher price. 366 00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:29,800 Besides, Bibi Saparova is not a British citizen. 367 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,960 Harry? The Tazbeks have started to stall at the talks. 368 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,840 We need their gas. 369 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,520 We do not need more obstacles. 370 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:42,160 Are you saying that Bibi is a price worth paying? That we should just look the other way? 371 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,480 Operational matters are down to you. I do not want the talks jeopardised. 372 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:51,880 And I'm still waiting to hear what the Tazbek delegation are saying away from the negotiating table. 373 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:57,080 These are your priorities, not some bloody poet who's ignored every warning we've given her. 374 00:27:57,120 --> 00:27:58,920 Er, can I have a word? 375 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,320 I went through all Plowden's on-line friends and kept his status open. 376 00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:08,640 Posted a few things to suggest he's still alive, carry on drawing in his contacts. Nice. Any response? 377 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,080 There was only one I couldn't hack into. Violet Franklin. 378 00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:13,680 Her status was protected with encryption devices 379 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,680 you wouldn't expect on a social networking site. Violet Franklin. 380 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:21,120 But once I'd hijacked his status I was able to get a location from which she posted, 381 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,560 even though I couldn't read the message. 382 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,200 The American Embassy. 383 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:29,040 Nice work, Tariq, I'll set up a meet. 384 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,360 You fed the journalist. 385 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,440 Franklin was my favourite American President of course. And Violet? 386 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,120 I just like the name, and the flower. 387 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:48,760 Why did you do it? 388 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,280 Cos you needed a lesson for double-crossing me. 389 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:55,720 I made it a bit hard for you to catch me but not impossible. I like our meetings. 390 00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:00,560 This isn't a game. Rustam Urazov had the journalist killed. And now you know what you're dealing with. 391 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,640 All this to make a point that you're just a bit pissed off with us. 392 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,000 Britain's on the brink and you're playing out a grudge. 393 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,520 I could never have done this unsanctioned. 394 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,480 Nobody wants your sordid little deal to go through. 395 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,080 On this one we are in total agreement with the Russians. 396 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,760 Oh, well, that's good to know. 397 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,160 The world's gone bi-polar, again. 398 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:25,760 You think the Russians are gonna allow a hardline nationalist regime to flourish in Tazbekstan? 399 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,080 Sarah... You think we're just gonna let them cosy up to Iran and China? 400 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:32,440 You stay out of this! If you interfere again I will... 401 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,200 I will do such things, what they are yet I know not, 402 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,600 but they shall be the terrors of the earth. 403 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,000 Come on, Lucas, stay. Let's talk. 404 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,200 Hey, don't ignore a friend's request. 405 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,480 'It is with great regret that I must inform the House 406 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,120 'that the rolling power cuts will be from three to five hours. 407 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,480 'I cannot pretend there is an early solution to the problem that faces us, 408 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:10,640 'although I can promise this House that this Government is pursuing every option available to us 409 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,840 'and I hope to have good news to bring to the House very shortly.' 410 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,800 The Tazbeks are stalling. These power cuts will weaken our position. We'll be completely over a barrel. 411 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,400 So how do we square this circle? 412 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,600 'The proposed cuts could begin within 48 hours. But I'd like...' 413 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,240 OK, let's start by giving Harry what he wants. 414 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,960 Get the intelligence on what the Tazbeks are doing behind the scenes. I'll get back to the club. 415 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,080 It's swept for bugs but Tariq thinks he can beat that. 416 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,680 And Bibi? Look, Jo, I'm sick of hearing about Bibi Saparova. 417 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:48,000 If you want to make her your personal cause celebre then you go right ahead, but you definitely 418 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:53,160 do not have my blessing and I definitely do not want to hear another word about it. 419 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,880 Do you understand? 420 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,680 All right. 421 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,560 Matthew Plowden was a really good man. 422 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:04,440 He cared about a country that is more fashionable to make jokes about. 423 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,280 We tried to warn him, Bibi, just like we're trying to warn you. 424 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,160 And do you feel proud? 425 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,720 That Urazov is able to do this on your soil? 426 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,680 This isn't as straightforward as you're making out.

He's the fly in the ointment. 558 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:49,800 He's the one stalling the negotiations in order to obtain the maximum advantage for his war. 559 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,840 The Tazbeks would have signed 48 hours ago without Urazov in the way. 560 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:58,560 We still have a chance of getting our gas supplies and stopping the carnage he wants to unleash. 561 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,600 It can't be seen to be us. 562 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,280 Not by the Tazbeks and not by our own government. 563 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:08,280 The Tazbek delegation have already refused our protection, right? That's true. 564 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,360 Thumper specifically told me that they could deal with the Russians. 565 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:15,680 If we obviously had nothing to do with it, why would they blame us? 566 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,440 It's very risky. 567 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,320 No, it's brilliant. 568 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:28,360 You'd have to explain that there'd be consequences though, if it's to be done properly. 569 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,840 You know what I'm thinking, then? I have a fairly good idea, yes. 570 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,800 There would be a trial afterwards? 571 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,200 There would have to be, I'm afraid. 572 00:41:40,240 --> 00:41:43,000 And prison, maybe ten years. 573 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,520 You already knew what my answer would be. 574 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,600 She agreed? She'll take the punishment to kill the man that did that to her sister. 575 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,760 She has a great motive for killing him and everybody will think the FSB were helping her. 576 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:21,480 She'll say anything we want her to say afterwards. No comeback on us. All right, but it won't be easy. 577 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,440 How do we set the trap and get him into a different hotel room? 578 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,080 You heard what he said about the English rose. Jo just about falls into that category. 579 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,440 Cheers, Ros(!) No worries. 580 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,160 Fine, but we'll also need eyes on the corridor keeping watch for the bodyguards. 581 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,920 Worth breaking him in with something simple? Gotta learn multi-tasking. 582 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:42,960 Young, scruffy, minimum wage written right across his forehead.

Something's wrong. 626 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:50,320 So we start the rumours that she was almost certainly being manipulated by the FSB. 627 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,400 That's already been put to the Tazbeks. So they're not blaming us? 628 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,800 Well, why would they? They knew what Thumper was like when it came to the ladies. 629 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,680 He was the one who told the bodyguards to stay downstairs. 630 00:48:00,720 --> 00:48:05,760 Their Prime Minister is now very anxious to sign and get home before he meets a similar fate. 631 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,400 Well done, everybody, looks like we have our deal. 632 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:26,000 Awful news about the shooting of their chief negotiator by the Tazbek dissident. 633 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:30,520 We strongly suspect she was being manipulated by the Russians. Indeed. 634 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,040 I'd like to welcome everybody here today. 635 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,800 Our own Foreign Secretary would have liked to attend, 636 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:42,880 but has unfortunately been caught up in the latest...Middle East... 637 00:49:01,240 --> 00:49:03,760 Who sent them the photos? Must've been the Russians. 638 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,600 They've got a photograph of Jo with Bibi inside the house. 639 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,640 How? We had a counter-surveillance team watching the whole time. 640 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,200 Play for time. Insist they're forgeries. 641 00:49:14,240 --> 00:49:17,400 The Tazbeks will already have had the photographs checked out. 642 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:21,000 How did they get pictures of you inside the flat? Kids at the window. 643 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,600 I need justice. 644 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:28,040 It's the boys from the estate, they know I live alone. 645 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:32,840 What? Kids from the estate, hassling Bibi, they came banging on the window. 646 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,440 She said they always did it. I bet they're not there now. 647 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,520 FSB must have been watching Bibi in case they did decide to use her. 648 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:42,080 So, how do we get out of this one? We'll have to go to the Americans. 649 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,840 Last time I checked, there wasn't a gas pipeline across the Atlantic. 650 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,160 The Americans can broker a deal. The Russians are our only option. 651 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,120 It's what they wanted - a great big Cossack boot over our throat. 652 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:55,600 We can't even begin to negotiate with the Russians. This is what I mean. 653 00:49:55,640 --> 00:50:00,360 We'll have to get the Americans to go to the Russians for us. With what? The intelligence we have. 654 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,600 That the Tazbeks are planning a war on their autonomous region. They probably suspect that. 655 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,120 But they don't know the details of Thumper's little plan. 656 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,040 We'll have to gild the lily, but it's an opening gambit. 657 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,280 The Russians will never just settle for that. Obviously not, 658 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,120 but we can get the ball rolling suggesting we can give them something. 659 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,560 All right, I'll go and talk to Sarah Caulfield. 660 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,320 See what they say at least. 661 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,160 Here we are. 662 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:27,840 Hey, Lucas. 663 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:33,400 My boss. Samuel Walker. Given the hard task of trying to keep an eye on this one. 664 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:36,960 I don't envy you. Hey, enough of the compliments. 665 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,120 So we've spoken to the Russians on your behalf. 666 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:45,080 Thank you, and? It was an audacious gamble taking out Urazov. Shame it backfired on you. 667 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:50,920 But they, like us, are not unhappy with his removal, so you haven't lost any friends that way. 668 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:55,040 And our offer? They like your offer and are keen to talk about what you know. 669 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,800 You can have gas from tomorrow at a similar price the Tazbeks offered. 670 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:03,040 Small mark-up, cos you did hurt their feelings not going straight to them. 671 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:09,080 They're very sensitive that way. As always with the Russians, though, the devil's in the detail. 672 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:14,440 They have one further requirement. And what would that be? 673 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,520 They want the Tazbek Prime Minister. 674 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:21,240 What? He leaves on a secret flight from Britain. They want details of that flight. 675 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,880 So what, they're going to shoot his plane down? 676 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:32,720 No, but they are going to explain to him in their own good time what will happen 677 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,360 if he continues to follow an agenda hostile to their interests. 678 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,600 So they hijack the plane. Force it to land? 679 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,440 As I say, Lucas, the devil is in the detail. 680 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:43,640 I'd leave that part to the Russians. 681 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:53,560 We had our backs against the wall. You and the Russians were watching and playing us the whole time. 682 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,320 Hey, you did the world a great favour. 683 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,800 You did the right thing. 684 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:03,440 Everybody's happy.
