about last night, don't you, sir?

will you?

He knew everything.

That's why he's dead.

I mean, don't you know the trick
to surviving this place

as little as you possibly can?

could Lewis come in here

about someone's death
199

I don't give a damn
350
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,159
about generators
or easterly breezes
351
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,319
or Dr Lloyd
Frankincense and Myrrh!
352
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,799
I want some decent food...
and I want it now!
353
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,319
You'll get what you're given,
Minister,
354
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:32,999
when and if I decide
to give it to you,
355
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,359
because I don't give a damn
about any of your appetites.
356
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,559
I beg your pardon?
Are you that stupid?
357
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,199
This is Maralinga, remember?
358
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,919
You know the drill.
This is my town.
359
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,919
I've seen the photos
of you and Molly, Phil.
360
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,839
Then you had ASIO
try to break her neck.
361
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,239
Break her neck...? Why would
I want to do that? I-is she OK?
362
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,719
Don't try to bullshit me, Phil.
363
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,279
I'm not bullshitting you!
364
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,159
She rang through
to my parliamentary office
365
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,839
and threatened me with blackmail.
366
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,159
Now, ASIO listens to every
phone call a cabinet minister gets.
367
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,679
They make their own laws, Leo.
368
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,279
I don't care.
The photos are out there.
369
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,239
So, here's how things
are gonna work out for you today.
370
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,479
First, you shut up
about your fuckin' breakfast.
371
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,799
Second, you'll tell Wilcox
372
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,799
that you should both go
on a tour of the camp.
373
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,039
You know. Great photo op.
374
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,839
The camp?
375
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,239
Three hours in a jeep
inspecting dust and craters?
376
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,640
And right on cue,
your tour guides appear, Minister.
377
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,039
NEWSREEL: Look who's here
out in the desert.
378
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,639
The Attorney-General
and the Defence Minister
379
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,839
doing their bit
in the dust and dirt
380
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,960
to support our boys,
our vital nuclear effort.
381
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,679
Here's Dick Wilcox having
a bit of a scrub before dinner.
382
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,240
Mother would be proud.
383
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,799
And there's the Attorney again,
384
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,759
getting the shave of a lifetime.
385
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:57,519
Again, the tests transcend
the boundaries of modern science.
386
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,787
But some are, of course,
more special than others.
387
00:22:04,360 --> 00:22:05,800
Doctor.
388
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,399
Terrible news about
Professor Ratchett.
389
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,239
Well, apparently, he didn't take
his own life after all.
390
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:16,599
Seems I was mistaken
391
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,319
when I loosened the rope
around his neck,
392
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,079
because according to Dr Lewis,
it was just a heart attack.
393
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,719
But that wouldn't come as
a surprise to you, would it?
394
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,679
Quentin's on the slab
if you're here to pay your respects.
395
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,399
I came to see you, actually.
Why?
396
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,039
I just told the camp that the test
has been moved forward six hours
397
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,519
owing to a change in the weather
398
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,519
and that it was solely
at your demand
399
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,559
as acting chief meteorologist.
400
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,094
Accordingly, the men have been
sent to their stations.
401
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,319
OK.
402
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,679
May I ask why you did
this fucking idiotic thing,
403
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,439
which totally compromises me?
404
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,279
I needed to buy some time.
405
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,279
You wanted to buy some time
by bringing forward a nuclear test?
406
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,919
Interesting.
Buy some time for what?
407
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,240
OK.
408
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,879
If 600 soldiers had entered
that mess this morning,
409
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,159
not to mention the Attorney-General,
Defence Minister and national press,
410
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,319
they would have found Cranky
on the kitchen floor
411
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,679
eating with the blacks
we met the other night.
412
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,199
Cranky would be sectioned
and sent off to an asylum,
413
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,119
I'll do a couple of years
in Holsworthy and lose my pension,
414
00:23:18,120 --> 00:23:20,359
the place would be shut down.
415
00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:22,519
Goodbye, British nuclear ambitions.
416
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,839
And what do you think
will happen to the blacks?
417
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:26,519
What?
418
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,959
Well, it won't be a free ride back
to country on Dalgleish's truck.
419
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,519
These people are evidence, Doctor.
420
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,120
Living human evidence.
421
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,599
Evidence of what, Major?
Of lies.
422
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,759
It'll be Official Secrets
for them, which means
423
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,519
being lined up against
a brick wall, pop, pop, pop,
424
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,040
and no-one giving a rat's arse.
425
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,880
Oh!
426
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,519
(ENGINE IDLES)
427
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,640
(COUGHS)
428
00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:39,599
(DOOR OPENS)
429
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,599
Would you like a drink, sir?
430
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,839
Calvados is what I think
is called for in this situation.
431
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,919
My, uh... my tum's
gone all knotty.
432
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,039
(CALLS) Swanny!
433
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,399
Tell me, Chef,
do you believe in God?
434
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:54,760
Yes, of course, sir.
435
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:58,239
Are you aware
that he and I speak
436
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,519
pretty much on a daily basis?
437
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,279
No, sir. I wasn't aware.
You're keeping good company, sir.
438
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,759
Oh, I'm not so sure about that.
439
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,919
He usually speaks wrath,
between you and me.
440
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:13,399
I think he's a bored, regretful,
burnt-out old has-been.
441
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,840
He should have been
a politician, not a deity.
442
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,759
Funnily enough, though,
443
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,919
it turns out he's not a big fan
of our bombs.
444
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,599
Sick to death of them, he says.
(DOOR OPENS)
445
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,119
One thing we have in common,
actually.
446
00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:30,679
Sir?
447
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,719
Uh, Calvados, Swanny.
A large one, if you please.
448
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,160
Very good, sir.
449
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,999
If I may, sir,
450
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,239
why are we...
testing bombs out here?
451
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,199
You have a desert.
452
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,199
You are part of the Empire.
453
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,839
Can't test them in England,
you know.
454
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,919
No telling who you might blow up.
455
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,279
Though, several names
do spring to mind, eh? (CHUCKLES)
456
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,280
But who knows who you might
blow up here, sir?
457
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:01,600
Blow up here?
458
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,439
Who the devil
are you talking about, man?
459
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,359
Well... like your... guests
earlier this morning.
460
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:11,239
They live out in the desert
where we're bombing.
461
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,359
Sir.
462
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:14,079
We've sent them back out there!
463
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,799
Dally is driving them
back out there even now as we speak!
464
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,599
They must be recalled.
465
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,479
The next bomb must be stopped.
466
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,439
The whole bloody shower has to stop.
467
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,107
That's an order, man!
I require a salute!
468
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,119
Next test is today, sir.
469
00:26:30,120 --> 00:26:32,279
Today?!
Dropping one from a plane.
470
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,959
Christ! I need Leo!
471
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,479
So, what do I get in return?
472
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:38,959
Really?
It's only fair.
473
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,959
I want a favour in return.
What?
474
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,480
You have, or have had, a spy here.
475
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,039
You're MI6, then.
476
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,719
I'm a meteorologist
working for the MOD
477
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,759
on temporary secondment to MI6.
478
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,294
This is to do with Quentin?
That's the current wisdom.
479
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,199
Jesus. You know who the spy is?
480
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,067
Yes. I just need a little help
with the procedural details.
481
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,039
Oh, come on, Leo.
We're on the same side.
482
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,599
What sort of help?
483
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,934
I'll tell you
when you need to know.
484
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,999
(SIGHS) Shit!
485
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,959
There has been a sudden
and drastic drop in air pressure
486
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,999
over the southern Indian Ocean
overnight.
487
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,199
If we wait until
the current appointed time,
488
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,919
the effects of this drop
in air pressure,
489
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,799
namely the strong
and potentially chaotic winds,
490
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,239
may strike us here,
491
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,079
possibly affecting
the plane's trajectory,
492
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,119
its capacity to drop its payload,
493
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:33,719
and render any scientific data
useless...
494
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,239
Have you considered
the potential consequences
495
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,639
of bringing the test forward?
496
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:38,799
Is the bomb ready?
497
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,199
Yes.
498
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:41,799
Then there are no
potential consequences.
499
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,759
May I go on uninterrupted?
500
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:45,679
MAN: Myer does have a point.
501
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,959
Why don't we just postpone
the whole thing
502
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,239
for a few days, Leo?
503
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:50,839
Because as well
as the nation's press,
504
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,799
the Attorney-General
and Defence Minister are here,
505
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,599
and they're not leaving today
without photos
506
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,719
of them standing in front
of a mushroom cloud.
507
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,599
I've got the boys
headed to their stations.
508
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,119
The plane's being fuelled
as we speak.
509
00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:02,400
It's showtime, gentlemen.
510
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,359
So you owe me.
Do I?!
511
00:28:08,360 --> 00:28:10,639
The spy is Corinne.
512
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,000
(LAUGHS) What?!
513
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,359
That's just bloody silly.
514
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:18,959
If there is a spy,
515
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,199
which, by the way, is just
an assertion on your part,
516
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,679
I promise you it's not Corinne.
517
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,439
I'll prove it to you.
No, you won't.
518
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,039
They'll probably name the bomb
after you, you know.
519
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,800
You must be very proud.
520
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,200
(COUGHS)

two vital members of our team,
including Major Leo Carmichael,

launched themselves
into the centre of proceedings
700
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,799
to make sure the bomb was safe.

I need a detonation.
I need a fucking cloud!
708
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,319
We did strongly advise against
bringing the test forward, sir,
709
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,719
but... but... but she insisted!
710
00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:18,520

the detonation device, Myer.

Williams, as the person
in charge of detonation,
714
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,439
are you yet to appreciate
the fact
715
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,599
that the bomb has not detonated?
716
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,479
It's possible. I'm just not
ready to jump to conclusions.

MYER: Conclusions?
718

Why are we not
just checking everything
719
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,279
on the verification protocols?

00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:42,639
