See you later. OK, see you later,
darling. Next week.

00:01:04,792 --> 00:01:08,422
COBRA at eight, Education Secretary
at nine, Foreign Secretary after.
5
00:01:08,422 --> 00:01:11,550
Then to Leicester, factory visit,
lunch, press conference,
6
00:01:11,550 --> 00:01:12,969
back to London, the House.
7
00:01:12,969 --> 00:01:15,806
I'm not doing the backbenchers.
They don't interest me.
8
00:01:15,806 --> 00:01:18,434
Anthea can do them. Sir, you agreed.
I'm not doing it.
9
00:01:31,781 --> 00:01:34,744
6:30, French President,
reception, dinner, bi-lateral talks.
10
00:01:34,744 --> 00:01:37,330
And it's your mother's birthday.
OK. And she gets...
11
00:01:37,330 --> 00:01:39,874
A handbag. Very nice.
I've seen it. All right.
12
00:01:39,874 --> 00:01:43,462
Oh...I was promised news
of Worricker. None.

CHURCH BELL CHIMING
14
00:02:12,370 --> 00:02:15,165
I heard you come in.
Are you all right?
15
00:02:15,165 --> 00:02:16,708
Yeah, I'm fine. How was it?
16
00:02:16,708 --> 00:02:18,920
Pretty brilliant.
I was brilliant, I mean.
17
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:20,422
And them?
18
00:02:20,422 --> 00:02:22,882
Yes. They responded brilliantly.
19
00:02:22,882 --> 00:02:24,384
Good. I'm glad you're back.
20
00:02:27,179 --> 00:02:29,097
Let's go to bed.
21
00:02:33,770 --> 00:02:35,855
Morning. Prime Minister.
22
00:02:42,988 --> 00:02:45,367
Express - Bill's in
trouble in Kiev.
23
00:02:45,367 --> 00:02:49,496
Independent -
Deputy Prime Minister's husband
on bribery charges.
24
00:02:49,496 --> 00:02:54,251
The Sun - Billy Whizz does a runner.
Deputy PM's man flees questions.
25
00:02:55,712 --> 00:03:00,884
Times - Catcheside faces Kiev
bribery allegations.
26
00:03:00,884 --> 00:03:05,849

SHE SIGHS

Bill! Just two seconds of your time.
Just two seconds. Bill! Bill!
32
00:04:20,142 --> 00:04:22,186
What does the PM
think about the backhanders?
33
00:04:22,186 --> 00:04:26,275
Is it true your wife is
planning to resign?
Come on, Bill, how much did you...
34
00:04:27,985 --> 00:04:29,445
You're up.
35
00:04:29,445 --> 00:04:30,613
Yes.
36
00:04:30,613 --> 00:04:33,408
I'm surprised. I left you sleeping.
Mm.
37
00:04:33,408 --> 00:04:34,701
Here.
38
00:04:36,912 --> 00:04:38,747
We could MAKE coffee, you know.
39
00:04:38,747 --> 00:04:41,417
I never make coffee, I buy it.
40
00:04:41,417 --> 00:04:42,960
I've noticed.
41
00:04:44,462 --> 00:04:46,506
It's better. I see more.
42
00:05:04,276 --> 00:05:07,655
Mrs Catcheside. Mrs Catcheside!
This way, Mrs Catcheside!
43
00:05:07,655 --> 00:05:11,160
Mrs Catcheside,
did you accompany him to Kiev?

ALL ASK QUESTIONS AT ONCE
45
00:05:14,830 --> 00:05:16,249
Anthea?

SHE SIGHS
Oh, God!
HE LAUGHS
47
00:06:38,593 --> 00:06:41,472
Sorry, Prime Minister,
it's my fault, I overlooked this.
48
00:06:41,472 --> 00:06:42,640
Yes?
49
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,350
It's in the Independent. Well?
50
00:06:44,350 --> 00:06:46,561
It's about the Bridge.
It's strangely worded
51
00:06:46,561 --> 00:06:49,314
but it's asking where the
financing comes from.
52
00:06:49,314 --> 00:06:52,108
Is Stirling Rogers mentioned?
He is.
53
00:06:52,108 --> 00:06:54,111
And the Americans? Yes.
54
00:06:56,155 --> 00:07:01,411
It's suggesting that you might be
preparing to move out of
Downing Street. Well, I'm not.
55
00:07:08,545 --> 00:07:11,173
So? So, what shall I say?
56
00:07:11,173 --> 00:07:13,925
Well, we say nothing.
If we go near the fire, we feed it.
57
00:07:13,925 --> 00:07:16,595
If we ignore it, it dies.
That's what I've learnt.
58
00:07:16,595 --> 00:07:19,307
In this case?
In this case specifically?
59
00:07:19,307 --> 00:07:20,850
In this case as others.
60
00:07:23,687 --> 00:07:25,814
By the way,
what's the journalist's name?
61
00:07:35,158 --> 00:07:38,079
And...when will she
be back in town, do you think?
62
00:07:41,499 --> 00:07:44,961
Allegra. How you getting on?
This little story of yours,
63
00:07:44,961 --> 00:07:46,379
where does it come from?
64
00:07:47,673 --> 00:07:49,258
I see. You're not saying anything.
65
00:07:49,258 --> 00:07:52,261
Well, when we get into court,
will it stand up? Let's hope so.
66
00:07:52,261 --> 00:07:54,847
You've run it very small.
67
00:07:54,847 --> 00:07:57,726
That's not me, that's editorial.
68
00:07:57,726 --> 00:07:58,769
OK.
69
00:08:00,854 --> 00:08:03,024
SHE EXHALES
70
00:08:03,024 --> 00:08:05,277
MOBILE RINGS
71
00:08:08,489 --> 00:08:10,032
Well, of all people.
72
00:08:10,032 --> 00:08:12,326
I thought you weren't
answering your phone.
73
00:08:12,326 --> 00:08:14,287
I saw who it was.
74
00:08:14,287 --> 00:08:16,539
Is there somewhere you can go
to be private?
75
00:08:16,539 --> 00:08:20,085
You're crazy.
Have you read the papers?
76
00:08:20,085 --> 00:08:22,755
Obviously.
Well, there is no private.
77
00:08:22,755 --> 00:08:25,883
There hasn't been private
for getting on for a month.
78
00:08:27,010 --> 00:08:29,053
I need to see you.
79
00:08:31,557 --> 00:08:32,767
All right.
80
00:08:44,238 --> 00:08:46,365
MOBILE RINGS
81
00:08:46,365 --> 00:08:47,492
Hello.
82
00:08:47,492 --> 00:08:49,870
Rollo, bad news I'm afraid,
we've had to move on.
83
00:08:49,870 --> 00:08:52,289
Again? What is this, Grand Tour of
Europe? They're on to us.
84
00:08:52,289 --> 00:08:55,542
Who? How do you know? Because I
recognised a jogger in Heidelberg.
85
00:08:55,542 --> 00:08:57,754
I actually recruited her
five years ago.
86
00:08:57,754 --> 00:09:02,342
They don't get any cleverer,
do they? No, but we've all done
worse things in our time, or I have.
87
00:09:02,342 --> 00:09:05,512
Rollo, I need to know, is the
item in print? Yeah. This morning.
88
00:09:05,512 --> 00:09:07,556
Vague? Suitably.
89
00:09:07,556 --> 00:09:10,268
Any reaction?
Not yet. Too early.
90
00:09:10,268 --> 00:09:13,938
Never underestimate the British
journalist's ability
to miss a good story.
91
00:09:13,938 --> 00:09:16,817
Rollo, we need to get going.
This is feeling urgent.
92
00:09:16,817 --> 00:09:19,112
Can you come out and see me?
Don't think so. Why not?
93
00:09:19,112 --> 00:09:22,448
Because I've now got an admirer
of my own. Anyone we know?
94
00:09:22,448 --> 00:09:25,577
My impression is, the whole service
is working to one remit -
95
00:09:25,577 --> 00:09:27,246
find Johnny Worricker.
96
00:09:28,706 --> 00:09:31,459
Let me know as soon as we get
a reaction. Don't worry.
97
00:09:31,459 --> 00:09:34,713
It may take time but I'll bet
the farm he's going to jump.
98
00:09:36,048 --> 00:09:38,718
Morning, everyone.
ALL: Morning.
99
00:09:38,718 --> 00:09:39,885
Morning.
100
00:09:48,395 --> 00:09:50,732
I don't believe this.
You told me we had a deal.
101
00:09:50,732 --> 00:09:53,735
We did have a deal. And?
102
00:09:53,735 --> 00:09:55,946
Those friends of yours
paid back 200 million.
103
00:09:55,946 --> 00:09:58,114
That's what you told me.
It's true. To the CIA.
104
00:09:58,114 --> 00:10:01,118
And in return we were promised
the end of the story.
105
00:10:01,118 --> 00:10:04,456
I mean, we know who's behind this,
hmm? Worricker.
106
00:10:04,456 --> 00:10:07,793
He's a shit. Alec, think of it
his way. He's trapped.
107
00:10:07,793 --> 00:10:10,546
They're both trapped, the two of
them. They're...panicking.
108
00:10:10,546 --> 00:10:13,132
They can't live in exile
for the rest of their lives.
109
00:10:13,132 --> 00:10:17,470
I have to deal with all sorts of
people - truly - people I can't even
begin to describe to you... Sure.
110
00:10:17,470 --> 00:10:19,264
Fair enough, that's the job.
111
00:10:19,264 --> 00:10:22,393
It costs me nothing, I can do it
in my sleep. Honestly.
112
00:10:22,393 --> 00:10:25,229
But I demand one thing - people
have to stick to their word.
113
00:10:25,229 --> 00:10:28,316
What's he up to? What does he want?
114
00:10:28,316 --> 00:10:30,443
And this has happened before.
115
00:10:30,443 --> 00:10:32,822
He was meant to hand back that file.
116
00:10:32,822 --> 00:10:34,824
He went back on his promise.
117
00:10:34,824 --> 00:10:37,618
And now here we are, he's...
done it again.
118
00:10:37,618 --> 00:10:41,248
But you don't actually know that.
What, you think this item could be
coincidence?
119
00:10:41,248 --> 00:10:43,459
Don't jump to conclusions,
it may turn out to be innocent.
120
00:10:43,459 --> 00:10:46,378
Look at the wording -
it's all pretty vague.
121
00:10:46,378 --> 00:10:51,092
We don't even know the name of the
journalist. Well, exactly, but we
know the paper. We know its editor.
122
00:10:51,092 --> 00:10:53,470
Yeah?
You're a friend of Belinda's.
123
00:10:53,470 --> 00:10:57,099
Everyone's a friend of Belinda's.
What, pony parties, is it?
124
00:10:57,099 --> 00:10:59,853
Going up to Oxfordshire
for barbecues and gin?
125
00:10:59,853 --> 00:11:03,899
Her mother's a marchioness.
Lady...Sheep-dip, Lady Cotswolds,
I don't know.
126
00:11:03,899 --> 00:11:07,986
Which means she's not easy to reach.
She's so rich, so posh...
she doesn't give a fuck.
127
00:11:07,986 --> 00:11:10,532
That's the last thing we need.
128
00:11:10,532 --> 00:11:13,827
Alec...I don't like
to see you rattled.
129
00:11:13,827 --> 00:11:17,123
You've done nothing wrong, remember?
You're not on trial. Not yet.
130
00:11:17,123 --> 00:11:19,333
What charge are you meant
to be facing?
131
00:11:19,333 --> 00:11:22,461
You've started a foundation,
which is for when you leave office,
132
00:11:22,461 --> 00:11:25,882
to address major global issues
of war and peace.
133
00:11:25,882 --> 00:11:28,719
It's been part-funded by a group
of American entrepreneurs,
134
00:11:28,719 --> 00:11:32,849
who work in many diverse fields,
including the security business.
135
00:11:32,849 --> 00:11:35,894
So? Perhaps you'd like to tell me
what's wrong with that?
136
00:11:35,894 --> 00:11:37,396
Well, you know what's wrong.
137
00:11:37,396 --> 00:11:42,110
The world is complicated. People
have different interests. Public,
private. It's how things are now.
138
00:11:42,110 --> 00:11:45,489
It's not a question of how it is,
it's a question of how it appears.
139
00:11:45,489 --> 00:11:49,952
Especially when these
same Americans have been caught
ripping off the American taxpayer.
140
00:11:49,952 --> 00:11:52,913
They haven't been caught. Not
in public. And they never will be.
141
00:11:52,913 --> 00:11:57,169
Which is why it's essential
that you remain the public face
of the foundation.
142
00:11:57,169 --> 00:11:59,338
Stirling, your hands are clean.
143
00:11:59,338 --> 00:12:01,799
Certainly are. Spotless.
144
00:12:01,799 --> 00:12:03,759
I mean, what's happening here?
145
00:12:03,759 --> 00:12:06,762
I am trying to do something
important for my country.
146
00:12:06,762 --> 00:12:10,100
Because we're at war.
If only people would admit it.
147
00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:14,063
In one year Iran
will have a nuclear weapon.
148
00:12:14,063 --> 00:12:17,108
What, I'm just supposed to ignore
it? Just sit back, let it happen?
149
00:12:17,108 --> 00:12:20,612
Alec, you are the greatest
politician of the age.
150
00:12:20,612 --> 00:12:22,614
Your enemies are plankton.
151
00:12:22,614 --> 00:12:25,326
Truly.
Some rogue M15 man with a file!
152
00:12:25,326 --> 00:12:29,914
Is that what the Prime Minister of
Great Britain should be worrying
about first thing in the morning?
153
00:12:29,914 --> 00:12:32,835
Some tie-dyed arsehole
from the Turks and Caicos?
154
00:12:32,835 --> 00:12:35,296
Was he wearing tie-dye?
No, he wasn't.
155
00:12:35,296 --> 00:12:37,715
Then, why did you say it?
156
00:12:37,715 --> 00:12:39,759
Because it's a metaphor.
157
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,845
And it's a joke! Huh, joke.
158
00:12:41,845 --> 00:12:43,556
Alec, think about it, seriously.
159
00:12:43,556 --> 00:12:46,224
Your people are out there,
they've got Europe locked down.
160
00:12:46,224 --> 00:12:49,270
By our count he's already moved
at least five times.
161
00:12:49,270 --> 00:12:52,148
There's no plan to it.
162
00:12:52,148 --> 00:12:55,319
Worricker's moving zigzag,
his brain's cotton wool,
163
00:12:55,319 --> 00:12:57,446
he's just a...rat on a map.
164
00:12:57,446 --> 00:12:59,406
And when we get him? What?
165
00:12:59,406 --> 00:13:02,160
I mean, when he's caught him.
Have you thought about that?
166
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:06,498
Do you have any serious idea
of what we then do with him?
And the girlfriend.
167
00:13:06,498 --> 00:13:09,960
I've thought about it.
Good, because that's the next stage.
168
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,255
Alec, you're getting this
out of proportion.
169
00:13:12,255 --> 00:13:15,801
No, getting him's the easy bit.
It's what we do with him then.
170
00:13:35,490 --> 00:13:37,700
What d'you think? Pretty nice.
171
00:13:37,700 --> 00:13:39,661
You'd better enjoy it.
172
00:13:39,661 --> 00:13:42,998
Why? How many more flats do we have?
173
00:13:42,998 --> 00:13:44,751
None.
174
00:13:44,751 --> 00:13:47,754
Well, don't look at me.
By my reckoning,
Wiesbaden's our fourth.
175
00:13:47,754 --> 00:13:50,591
You never could count. Tenth.
176
00:13:50,591 --> 00:13:52,135
You're including hotels.
177
00:13:52,135 --> 00:13:53,886
Yeah. How could I forget?
178
00:13:53,886 --> 00:13:56,347
And we're running out of money.
Great.
179
00:14:00,268 --> 00:14:01,979
So can we go home?
180
00:14:01,979 --> 00:14:03,605
HE CHUCKLES
181
00:14:10,947 --> 00:14:12,575
Brian...
182
00:14:12,575 --> 00:14:16,203
I've, er, got an unscheduled
meeting. I want somewhere secure.
183
00:14:16,203 --> 00:14:18,039
Not in your own office? I said.
184
00:14:18,039 --> 00:14:19,708
There's a room in the basement.
185
00:14:19,708 --> 00:14:21,209
Come on, then.
186
00:14:45,654 --> 00:14:47,572
I need to be left on my own.
187
00:14:47,572 --> 00:14:49,450
It's national security.
188
00:15:04,843 --> 00:15:07,763
It's kind of you
to make time for me.
189
00:15:07,763 --> 00:15:10,558
I wanted to see you
because I'm deeply concerned.
190
00:15:10,558 --> 00:15:12,226
Have you seen this?
191
00:15:12,226 --> 00:15:14,061
Tell me about it.
192
00:15:14,061 --> 00:15:16,189
I know security's
no longer your remit...
193
00:15:16,189 --> 00:15:19,192
I still get to see a lot of
high-grade intelligence.
194
00:15:19,192 --> 00:15:20,778
It passes across my desk.
195
00:15:20,778 --> 00:15:23,615
Yes, that's at my insistence.
Is it really? Yes.
196
00:15:23,615 --> 00:15:25,199
I didn't know that. Well, it is.
197
00:15:25,199 --> 00:15:29,913
I believe it's important
in government that the most
sensitive material
198
00:15:29,913 --> 00:15:33,209
is always seen
by more than one pair of eyes.
199
00:15:33,209 --> 00:15:34,794
You'll have to explain.
200
00:15:34,794 --> 00:15:38,215
The Prime Minister's judgment
has always been faultless.
201
00:15:38,215 --> 00:15:39,508
It certainly has.
202
00:15:39,508 --> 00:15:41,009
Don't get me wrong.
203
00:15:41,009 --> 00:15:43,095
He's a man who's called
every major issue
204
00:15:43,095 --> 00:15:45,181
of the last ten years correctly.
205
00:15:45,181 --> 00:15:48,434
And you're close to him. I am. I'm
very close. I owe him a great deal.
206
00:15:48,434 --> 00:15:52,356
He made you acting head
of the service. More than that,
he protected you. Yes.
207
00:15:52,356 --> 00:15:56,110
When you most needed protecting.
I'm in his debt. But?
208
00:15:56,110 --> 00:15:59,239
But it's also healthy for government
if there's a little air,
209
00:15:59,239 --> 00:16:02,742
a little...ventilation
around important decisions.
210
00:16:02,742 --> 00:16:05,830
That way things don't get...cramped.
211
00:16:09,667 --> 00:16:12,337
I don't know if you heard
about a murder in the Caribbean,
212
00:16:12,337 --> 00:16:14,172
a few months ago.
213
00:16:14,172 --> 00:16:17,217
Yes, I think I heard something.
A man with a strawberry mark?
214
00:16:17,217 --> 00:16:19,012
That's him. Yes, I saw a picture.
215
00:16:19,012 --> 00:16:21,723
But, to be honest,
it hasn't been my priority.
216
00:16:21,723 --> 00:16:22,933
I'm sure.
217
00:16:22,933 --> 00:16:25,519
I've had problems of my own.
My errant husband.
218
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:28,898
Well, of course we may be able to
help you there. Sorry? Help me?
219
00:16:28,898 --> 00:16:32,319
I mean, we may be able to give you
information you may not have.
220
00:16:32,319 --> 00:16:33,903
About your husband.
221
00:16:35,573 --> 00:16:37,199
Stuff you don't know.
222
00:16:45,292 --> 00:16:46,669
What sort of stuff?
223
00:16:50,048 --> 00:16:53,009
Go on. What you were
saying about the murder.
224
00:16:53,009 --> 00:16:54,720
Have you heard of the Bridge?
225
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,392
The Prime Minister's plan to
continue statesmanship beyond his
formal period of elected office?
226
00:16:59,392 --> 00:17:01,060
Yes. I've heard of it.
227
00:17:01,060 --> 00:17:04,063
Well, it was one of the donors
to that project that was killed.
228
00:17:04,063 --> 00:17:08,986
Do we know who by? And we've had
some questions recently about
the project's financing.
229
00:17:08,986 --> 00:17:11,447
It's financing?
Yes. How it's financed?
230
00:17:13,700 --> 00:17:18,830
Forgive me, but...I'm going to ask
a question, because time is short.
231
00:17:18,830 --> 00:17:22,584
Oh, by all means. It's this -
what's the subject of this meeting?
232
00:17:22,584 --> 00:17:24,837
What's the subject?
Yes. Give me a headline.
233
00:17:24,837 --> 00:17:27,465
Say, I'm going home, this evening
in the car, or in the bath,
234
00:17:27,465 --> 00:17:31,929
and I think, "I met Jill Tankard
today and we talked about..."
235
00:17:31,929 --> 00:17:34,891
What? What did we talk about?
What was the subject?
236
00:17:34,891 --> 00:17:37,852
I've come in to open up a channel.
What sort of channel?
237
00:17:37,852 --> 00:17:39,980
A channel of communication.
238
00:17:39,980 --> 00:17:41,731
To flag up potential trouble.
239
00:17:41,731 --> 00:17:46,112
It seems to me any trouble you're
talking of isn't for me,
it's for Alec. I think it may be.
240
00:17:47,196 --> 00:17:50,408
Frankly, Jill, what you're saying
doesn't add up to much.
241
00:17:50,408 --> 00:17:52,619
Doesn't it? I don't think so.
Why not?
242
00:17:52,619 --> 00:17:54,204
Because what's the beef here?
243
00:17:54,204 --> 00:17:56,541
In his eagerness for a life
beyond Downing Street,
244
00:17:56,541 --> 00:18:00,545
the Prime Minister
may have accidentally
befriended some dubious characters.
245
00:18:00,545 --> 00:18:05,885
Crooks. So? What he'll do when
he leaves government isn't strictly
a matter FOR the government.
246
00:18:05,885 --> 00:18:13,309
Isn't it? Maybe not, but
if people find out about it - and
this reference is the first sign -
247
00:18:13,309 --> 00:18:16,146
then we may enter rough water.
248
00:18:16,146 --> 00:18:19,609
And in rough water it'll be
to your personal advantage
249
00:18:19,609 --> 00:18:23,572
to be briefed about what's coming up
before it actually happens.
250
00:18:27,242 --> 00:18:29,412
OK. And another thing...
251
00:18:29,412 --> 00:18:31,121
Yes? CIA's got a new boss.
252
00:18:31,121 --> 00:18:32,456
How does that affect us?
253
00:18:32,456 --> 00:18:35,919
He wants to draw a line under
the excesses of the last ten years.
254
00:18:35,919 --> 00:18:39,214
Which ones? Private contractors
ripping off the American public.
255
00:18:39,214 --> 00:18:40,633
And that's been bad news
256
00:18:40,633 --> 00:18:43,303
for a couple of
the Prime Minister's friends.
257
00:18:45,472 --> 00:18:46,890
Tell me one thing.
258
00:18:48,058 --> 00:18:51,187
Is Johnny Worricker
mixed up in this?
259
00:18:51,187 --> 00:18:54,024
Of course.
And is he still on the loose?
260
00:18:54,024 --> 00:18:58,696
He's in Germany.
He was in Switzerland, with a...
former intelligence officer.
261
00:18:58,696 --> 00:18:59,905
A woman?
262
00:18:59,905 --> 00:19:02,366
We have real hopes of
bringing them home. Soon?
263
00:19:02,366 --> 00:19:05,536
Very. Nearly had them this morning.
An agent was out running.
264
00:19:05,536 --> 00:19:08,081
But? We lost them.
265
00:19:08,081 --> 00:19:09,416
How?
266
00:19:09,416 --> 00:19:11,669
Incompetence.
267
00:19:11,669 --> 00:19:17,092
So, meanwhile, you're offering me
an inside track?
268
00:19:17,092 --> 00:19:19,427
You have it.
For what reason?
269
00:19:19,427 --> 00:19:24,642
For the obvious reason. Because
you're Beasley's natural successor.
270
00:19:24,642 --> 00:19:27,270
Hardly. Not at the moment I'm not.
271
00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:29,272
Not while my husband's all over
the papers.
272
00:19:35,195 --> 00:19:36,656
We can deal with that.
273
00:19:38,742 --> 00:19:40,702
You can deal with the British
press in full cry?
274
00:19:40,702 --> 00:19:42,496
I don't see why not.
275
00:19:42,496 --> 00:19:45,624
At MI5 we've never had any
problem with the press.
276
00:19:45,624 --> 00:19:47,042
Really?
277
00:19:47,042 --> 00:19:51,465
Politics is fair game,
national security isn't.
278
00:19:51,465 --> 00:19:54,384
They're like all bullies,
they don't like being bullied back.
279
00:19:55,469 --> 00:20:01,852
My whole point ` the closer you get
to us, the easier your life will be.
280
00:20:12,238 --> 00:20:17,953
If I agree to this...
channel, what's going to happen?
281
00:20:17,953 --> 00:20:19,997
I'm going to call you
and we're going to meet.
282
00:20:19,997 --> 00:20:21,457
Where?
283
00:20:21,457 --> 00:20:24,502
In this room. When?
Whenever we need to.
284
00:20:28,257 --> 00:20:31,886
One thing, do your colleagues know
what you're doing?
285
00:20:31,886 --> 00:20:35,139
No. Do yours?
286
00:20:52,993 --> 00:20:56,831
Here, I got you these.
Herrings. The ones you like.
287
00:20:56,831 --> 00:21:01,128
Your favourites. I'm going
to make a salad.
288
00:21:01,128 --> 00:21:05,216
OK. I'm going to go for a walk.
289
00:21:05,216 --> 00:21:09,805
After lunch? Yes. Do you want me to
come with you?
290
00:21:09,805 --> 00:21:12,475
Great idea, and double the risk?
291
00:21:12,475 --> 00:21:15,311
I got you this.
It's at the local museum.
292
00:21:15,311 --> 00:21:17,313
From Raphael to Dali.
293
00:21:17,313 --> 00:21:20,650
It started last month.
It's not too late to join.
294
00:21:20,650 --> 00:21:22,820
Aren't you interested?
295
00:21:22,820 --> 00:21:25,573
Of course I'm interested.
Well?
296
00:21:25,573 --> 00:21:29,619
I started one art class in Lausanne.
I started another in Heidelberg.
297
00:21:29,619 --> 00:21:32,080
I'm tired of starting things
I don't get to finish.
298
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,874
Margot, we both know the rules.
299
00:21:33,874 --> 00:21:35,125
Keep our minds active.
300
00:21:35,125 --> 00:21:37,211
Exactly. Keep doing things.
301
00:21:40,715 --> 00:21:43,093
Oh, God is that your idea
of making a salad?
302
00:21:43,093 --> 00:21:44,636
Sorry.
303
00:21:44,636 --> 00:21:48,808
Here. Can't I send
you on a salad-making course?
304
00:21:50,185 --> 00:21:52,104
That'll keep your mind active.
305
00:21:56,817 --> 00:22:02,490
We can retire and grow lettuces
in Suffolk and you can practice.
306
00:22:02,490 --> 00:22:05,118
This is all an attempt to break us.
Think of it that way.
307
00:22:05,118 --> 00:22:08,330
We're feeling like prisoners,
that's how they want us to feel.
308
00:22:08,330 --> 00:22:13,419
And do we have to stay relentlessly
cheerful? All the time? Once or
twice can't we be moody?
309
00:22:13,419 --> 00:22:14,838
You can be moody.
310
00:22:16,381 --> 00:22:18,384
Gherkins. Another thing you like.
311
00:22:20,135 --> 00:22:23,473
"Essigurke speziell fur
Feinschmecker."
312
00:22:23,473 --> 00:22:26,017
I remember one thing about spying.
313
00:22:26,017 --> 00:22:27,811
What's that? What do you remember?
314
00:22:27,811 --> 00:22:30,398
What do I remember?
Spies work alone.
315
00:22:48,376 --> 00:22:49,711
PHONE RINGS
316
00:22:54,967 --> 00:23:01,141
Julianne? Yes? It's Margot.
Hey - where are you now?
317
00:23:01,141 --> 00:23:08,858
Don't tell me. Is everything
all right? Yes, it's fine.
I haven't heard from Dad for weeks.
318
00:23:08,858 --> 00:23:12,988
Well, no. He can't call you,
he's frightened. And I shouldn't.
319
00:23:12,988 --> 00:23:15,825
But I couldn't resist.
It's kind of you.
320
00:23:15,825 --> 00:23:18,828
Don't be silly.
I'm glad one of you cares.
321
00:23:18,828 --> 00:23:23,167
We both care. It's just
Johnny's in an impossible position.
322
00:23:23,167 --> 00:23:26,003
He's been in impossible positions
since the day I was born.
323
00:23:26,003 --> 00:23:28,172
He thrives on them.
324
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,259
How big are you?
325
00:23:31,259 --> 00:23:33,637
I'm big.
I'm due in a couple of months.
326
00:23:33,637 --> 00:23:35,640
How's it going with Jez?
327
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,810
Oh, day by day. Life with a DJ.
328
00:23:39,810 --> 00:23:41,103
Gets in when I'm getting up.
329
00:23:41,103 --> 00:23:43,273
Are you living together?
330
00:23:43,273 --> 00:23:45,901
Almost. Not quite.
Otherwise?
331
00:23:45,901 --> 00:23:47,611
I'm superstitious.
332
00:23:51,157 --> 00:23:56,080
I don't quite dare. But it does feel
like this time I fell on my feet.
333
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,292
I just don't want to push it too
far.
334
00:23:59,292 --> 00:24:01,210
It's lovely to hear your voice,
Julianne.
335
00:24:05,215 --> 00:24:09,094
I'll call you again. I don't know
when but I will. Margot? Yes?
336
00:24:10,346 --> 00:24:11,931
Take care of yourself.
337
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,766
What? Seen this? You
know who wrote it?
338
00:25:25,766 --> 00:25:30,021
I have this strange feeling, she's
been talking to our brothers in
Millbank.
339
00:25:30,021 --> 00:25:33,567
How do you know that?
I don't. I sense it. How?
340
00:25:33,567 --> 00:25:39,657
Because that's how she
came to us. From the BBC, remember?
She broke the Jake Pierpan story.
341
00:25:39,657 --> 00:25:41,826
That peacenik with
the drippy sister.
342
00:25:43,495 --> 00:25:47,165
Have you ever asked yourself why
the sainted Allegra got that story?
343
00:25:47,165 --> 00:25:50,419
Or, more interesting,
why did they give it to her?
344
00:25:50,419 --> 00:25:54,049
Maybe she's just a
virgin who got lucky.
345
00:25:54,049 --> 00:25:57,177
Yeah, right. I wonder,
would you take her out for a drink?
346
00:26:02,391 --> 00:26:05,312
If they're using us,
let's see if we can use them.
347
00:26:08,899 --> 00:26:10,275
All right, let's get going.
348
00:26:13,362 --> 00:26:16,241
Ted, one thing. The diary story.
349
00:26:16,241 --> 00:26:22,331
Scan the Internet to see if it
spreads. Do it yourself, no one's to
know.
350
00:26:22,331 --> 00:26:25,543
Yes, sir, I'm sorry, I
thought you said to ignore it.
351
00:26:25,543 --> 00:26:29,965
We are ignoring it.
I also want you to keep me informed.
352
00:26:42,771 --> 00:26:44,774
You're back. Nice walk?
353
00:26:44,774 --> 00:26:46,860
Yes. Sweet town, isn't it?
354
00:26:46,860 --> 00:26:48,319
Yeah. Very sweet.
355
00:26:48,319 --> 00:26:52,532
Bath, only in Germany
and more genteel.
356
00:26:52,532 --> 00:26:57,079
I didn't know what you wanted to
do this evening.
What do you want to do?
357
00:26:57,079 --> 00:27:00,124
You could go to a movie.
Do you want me to cook supper?
358
00:27:00,124 --> 00:27:03,128
You don't have to entertain me,
you know. Yeah, I know.
359
00:27:03,128 --> 00:27:06,131
I was two years in Belfast,
never spoke to a soul, remember?
360
00:27:06,131 --> 00:27:09,677
I'm perfectly happy being unhappy,
if you know what I mean.
361
00:27:11,805 --> 00:27:13,098
You're very unfair.
362
00:27:13,098 --> 00:27:15,017
Unfair. How?
363
00:27:15,017 --> 00:27:16,894
About my cooking. Oh.
364
00:27:16,894 --> 00:27:20,564
Years ago, remember?
I made you a carbonara.
365
00:27:20,564 --> 00:27:23,401
How could I forget?
You made me a Milanese.
366
00:27:23,401 --> 00:27:24,945
I'll make you another.
367
00:27:31,994 --> 00:27:34,373
They were good times.
368
00:27:34,373 --> 00:27:36,166
They are good times.
369
00:27:42,131 --> 00:27:48,180
When we move, we're going to move so
fast you're not going to believe it.
370
00:27:51,725 --> 00:27:53,353
Oh, I think I will.
371
00:28:19,716 --> 00:28:21,051
How kind, thank you.
372
00:28:23,303 --> 00:28:25,931
You're the first person in the
office even to admit I exist.
373
00:28:25,931 --> 00:28:28,768
It's a newspaper.
You'll get used to it.
374
00:28:28,768 --> 00:28:32,105
Yeah, but the
editor's something, isn't she?
375
00:28:32,105 --> 00:28:35,859
You only have power if
you don't give a bugger.
Belinda doesn't give a bugger.
376
00:28:35,859 --> 00:28:39,197
That's what makes her special.
When politicians ask her to lunch,
she doesn't go.
377
00:28:39,197 --> 00:28:42,450
Let's face it, you can only do a job
properly if you're not frightened to
lose it.
378
00:28:42,450 --> 00:28:45,746
Are you trying to tell me something?
No, I'm trying to ask you something.
379
00:28:45,746 --> 00:28:49,250
What? What are you asking?
380
00:28:49,250 --> 00:28:52,504
Whether you work for
the security services.
381
00:28:52,504 --> 00:28:54,757
Or whether your boyfriend does.
382
00:28:54,757 --> 00:28:55,966
If I have a boyfriend.
383
00:28:55,966 --> 00:28:57,509
Whether you've been planted on us.
384
00:28:57,509 --> 00:28:58,803
Is this a serious question?
385
00:28:58,803 --> 00:29:00,304
Like that story this morning.
386
00:29:00,304 --> 00:29:01,514
What about it?
387
00:29:01,514 --> 00:29:03,308
Where did you get it?
388
00:29:08,481 --> 00:29:12,653
It's not a bed thing, is it?
One of two possibilities.
389
00:29:12,653 --> 00:29:14,321
A bed thing or a family thing.
390
00:29:14,321 --> 00:29:16,365
I'm going to lay a thousand
to one its family.
391
00:29:16,365 --> 00:29:18,242
Why?
392
00:29:18,242 --> 00:29:22,205
Because when a journalist goes out
on a limb, it's always family. Daddy
works in intelligence, does he?
393
00:29:22,205 --> 00:29:23,956
No.
394
00:29:23,956 --> 00:29:26,919
Is he with the dumb ones in Millbank
or with the clever ones in Vauxhall?
395
00:29:26,919 --> 00:29:29,088
And I'm not out on a limb.
396
00:29:32,591 --> 00:29:34,803
What are you planning
to do with the story?
397
00:29:34,803 --> 00:29:36,346
I'm not sure. I haven't decided.
398
00:29:37,681 --> 00:29:40,142
You haven't decided?
399
00:29:40,142 --> 00:29:44,438
OK. You don't spell it out,
you leave it for the reader to
400
00:29:44,438 --> 00:29:47,401
join the dots, but you're implying
the Prime Minister takes money
401
00:29:47,401 --> 00:29:51,989
from dodgy businessmen who fall in
the sea in mysterious circumstances.
402
00:29:51,989 --> 00:29:53,366
And you haven't decided?
403
00:29:56,452 --> 00:29:57,871
What does the look mean?
404
00:29:57,871 --> 00:30:01,708
I'm trying to work out if you're
a great deal stupider than you
appear, or a great deal cleverer.
405
00:30:38,084 --> 00:30:40,879
MOBILE RINGS
406
00:30:43,715 --> 00:30:46,426
Hello? Allegra? Rollo.
407
00:30:46,426 --> 00:30:47,720
Are you at home? Yes.
408
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,640
Go to your computer, you'll find
something which moves the story on.
409
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,768
It'd be great if it could
go in tonight.
410
00:30:52,768 --> 00:30:54,603
Rollo... Yes?
411
00:30:54,603 --> 00:30:57,940
I'm getting frightened. People are
asking questions. What people?
412
00:30:57,940 --> 00:31:00,694
The editor sent a journalist to
take me out for a drink.
413
00:31:00,694 --> 00:31:03,947
That's great. That's exactly
what we want. Who did she send?
Freddy Lagarde.
414
00:31:03,947 --> 00:31:08,703
Oh, Freddy. Did he take your virtue?
For a Pinot Grigio?
415
00:31:08,703 --> 00:31:10,329
People have done it for less.
416
00:31:10,329 --> 00:31:12,832
One thing, get a new phone.
417
00:31:12,832 --> 00:31:17,796
As from this morning, your name is
out there. Always assume someone is
listening. And, Allegra? Yes?
418
00:31:17,796 --> 00:31:20,841
Hold your nerve. With luck, there's
going to be a lot more of this.
419
00:31:22,718 --> 00:31:24,553
You've endured weeks of headlines,
420
00:31:24,553 --> 00:31:27,808
do you really believe you can
hold on as Deputy Prime Minister?
421
00:31:27,808 --> 00:31:29,977
To be honest,
I see no reason I shouldn't.
422
00:31:29,977 --> 00:31:33,481
I stand up for my husband,
I don't stand in for him.
423
00:31:33,481 --> 00:31:36,151
Yes, but if he does appear in Kiev
on charges of bribing
424
00:31:36,151 --> 00:31:37,819
government officials...
425
00:31:37,819 --> 00:31:40,072
It's a very different
culture from our own.
426
00:31:40,072 --> 00:31:42,992
And, by the way,
if people do have questions of him,
427
00:31:42,992 --> 00:31:46,370
then I'm confident Bill's going to
have perfectly satisfactory answers.
428
00:31:46,370 --> 00:31:49,124
But can you be sure of that?
429
00:31:49,124 --> 00:31:51,961
Do you know, as a
matter of fact, I can.
430
00:32:37,055 --> 00:32:40,391
Well, I think this has been a very
worthwhile evening.
431
00:32:40,391 --> 00:32:43,061
It's good for the cabinet to meet
informally for a change.
432
00:32:43,061 --> 00:32:45,105
Kick some ideas around.
433
00:32:45,105 --> 00:32:47,649
We appreciate you coming in, Anthea.
434
00:32:47,649 --> 00:32:50,695
Things must be heavy on your plate.
435
00:32:50,695 --> 00:32:54,158
If things can be heavy on a plate.
436
00:32:54,158 --> 00:32:55,993
Full on my plate.
437
00:32:55,993 --> 00:32:57,286
Yes. Yes. Loaded.
438
00:32:59,872 --> 00:33:04,335
It has been an ordeal, hasn't it?
Yes. But you are bearing up.
439
00:33:07,923 --> 00:33:11,928
I wonder what you feel about that
item in the Independent this
morning, Prime Minister.
440
00:33:11,928 --> 00:33:16,433
What item was that? I don't think I
saw it, did I? Remind me.
You didn't see it, sir.
441
00:33:16,433 --> 00:33:20,145
You have time to read the
Independent, do you, Jock? Justice
must be very under-worked.
442
00:33:21,397 --> 00:33:22,815
It put up a red flag.
443
00:33:22,815 --> 00:33:25,985
I'm amazed no one in your office
picked up on it.
444
00:33:25,985 --> 00:33:27,362
Anthea, did you see it?
445
00:33:27,362 --> 00:33:29,782
No. I've no idea what
he is talking about.
446
00:33:29,782 --> 00:33:31,575
I'll tell you what it's about.
447
00:33:31,575 --> 00:33:36,455
It said some of the people financing
the Bridge have dubious backgrounds.
448
00:33:36,455 --> 00:33:39,793
Did it?
It seems to be implying they're
not above murdering each other.
449
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:47,469
Well, that's the way the world is.
There's always someone who can't
wait to fling a bucket of mud.
450
00:33:47,469 --> 00:33:49,971
Get used to it.
451
00:33:51,139 --> 00:33:52,349
I'll take a look at it.
452
00:33:55,019 --> 00:33:56,479
Let's get out of here.
453
00:34:17,795 --> 00:34:21,091
Oh, err... Worricker?
454
00:35:06,434 --> 00:35:10,564
OK, this is going to be very simple.
The simpler we keep it the better.
It's not going to be difficult.
455
00:35:10,564 --> 00:35:13,651
It's going to suit me,
then, that's what you're saying.
456
00:35:13,651 --> 00:35:16,696
We pick up cars.
OK. From different cities.
457
00:35:16,696 --> 00:35:19,074
OK. This is your Europcar card.
458
00:35:19,074 --> 00:35:22,035
Thank you. This is a map with a
route, I've marked it.
459
00:35:22,035 --> 00:35:25,331
You return the car as designated.
Usual drill.
460
00:35:25,331 --> 00:35:27,000
Except this time we stay separate.
461
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,377
Credit card. Passport.
462
00:35:28,377 --> 00:35:30,503
Ah... Excellent. Who am I this time?
463
00:35:32,340 --> 00:35:34,049
You're joking.
464
00:35:34,049 --> 00:35:36,677
I liked it. It made me laugh.
465
00:35:36,677 --> 00:35:38,096
And who are you? Cilla Black?
466
00:35:38,096 --> 00:35:39,556
You don't need to know.
467
00:35:43,894 --> 00:35:47,982
And, by the way, I've wanted to say
this but I haven't said it.
What haven't you said?
468
00:35:49,108 --> 00:35:53,989
I wanted to tell you, I minded it
when you looked at my phone.
469
00:35:53,989 --> 00:35:57,452
When you checked my calls.
I hated that.
470
00:36:01,164 --> 00:36:03,250
Well, then I won't be
doing that again.
471
00:36:07,504 --> 00:36:11,634
And also, just asking,
how was my daughter?
472
00:36:12,636 --> 00:36:15,931
Julianne? Julianne's fine.
473
00:36:23,607 --> 00:36:24,900
You're up.
474
00:36:25,900 --> 00:36:28,946
Mm hm. Yeah. Are you OK?
475
00:36:28,946 --> 00:36:30,239
I'm fine.
476
00:36:50,971 --> 00:36:56,061
I was just reading this stuff about
Beasley. What a dag.
477
00:36:58,021 --> 00:37:01,275
Dag? Yeah. Dag's the stuff that
hangs off the end of a sheep.
478
00:37:01,275 --> 00:37:04,654
You like him that much? I just don't
like people who invent threats
479
00:37:04,654 --> 00:37:08,199
to justify doing what they wanted to
do all along.
480
00:37:08,199 --> 00:37:10,536
Look at that face. He looks like a
Russian mobster.
481
00:37:10,536 --> 00:37:14,123
You don't think this
country's under threat?
482
00:37:14,123 --> 00:37:16,876
On the contrary. It's because I take
real threats seriously
483
00:37:16,876 --> 00:37:19,213
that I don't want to be blackmailed
by phony ones.
484
00:37:21,090 --> 00:37:23,759
Politicians who cry wolf are
the most dangerous kind.
485
00:37:26,637 --> 00:37:28,848
I'm interested,
how can you know so much about it?
486
00:37:30,476 --> 00:37:33,937
I'm interested. How can you not?
487
00:37:35,773 --> 00:37:39,819
Sometimes I feel I really don't
know anything about you.
488
00:37:40,946 --> 00:37:43,365
Don't you? No. No I don't.
489
00:37:44,909 --> 00:37:46,368
But I'd like to.
490
00:37:51,542 --> 00:37:54,211
Well, you'll
have plenty of time to find out.
491
00:38:36,260 --> 00:38:37,886
Here is the phone.
492
00:38:39,597 --> 00:38:40,932
Danke.
493
00:38:46,939 --> 00:38:48,314
Good luck.
494
00:38:51,277 --> 00:38:53,905
PHONE RINGS
495
00:38:56,449 --> 00:38:58,326
I hope you're moving.
496
00:38:58,326 --> 00:39:01,163
We are. I just said goodbye to her.
Good.
497
00:39:01,163 --> 00:39:04,417
As a matter of interest, who told
you today was the day to get going?
498
00:39:04,417 --> 00:39:07,337
Because, believe it or not,
I still have some friends.
499
00:39:07,337 --> 00:39:08,588
I'm amazed.
500
00:39:08,588 --> 00:39:10,131
Johnny, you'd be even more amazed
501
00:39:10,131 --> 00:39:12,717
if you knew how many people
in Millbank are rooting for you.
502
00:39:36,620 --> 00:39:39,415
Good afternoon.
I believe you may have a car for me.
503
00:39:39,415 --> 00:39:41,001
Do you speak English? We do.
504
00:39:41,001 --> 00:39:42,753
My German is rusty.
505
00:39:46,590 --> 00:39:48,301
Marsden? OK.
506
00:39:48,301 --> 00:39:50,220
Gerry Marsden.
507
00:40:11,035 --> 00:40:12,328
Do you mind?
508
00:40:19,170 --> 00:40:21,463
I guessed you were English.
509
00:40:21,463 --> 00:40:24,384
Where are you going?
You don't mind me asking? Erm...
510
00:40:24,384 --> 00:40:27,554
back to school. I'm a teacher.
511
00:40:27,554 --> 00:40:29,473
Where? Where?
512
00:40:29,473 --> 00:40:31,433
I was asking, where do you teach?
513
00:40:31,433 --> 00:40:34,896
I'm sorry...I'm tired.
514
00:40:34,896 --> 00:40:36,314
I need to sleep.
515
00:40:47,619 --> 00:40:49,329
SHIP'S HORN BLARES
516
00:40:57,630 --> 00:40:58,965
You're well loaded up.
517
00:41:01,260 --> 00:41:03,804
Isn't that what the continent's for?
518
00:41:03,804 --> 00:41:06,140
CHUCKLES: We all love
a booze cruise.
519
00:41:06,140 --> 00:41:08,476
FANS CHANT: ..the Arsenal,
520
00:41:08,476 --> 00:41:12,022
unto victory, yeah!
521
00:41:12,022 --> 00:41:15,276
We all follow the Arsenal! Over...
522
00:41:43,475 --> 00:41:44,685
Thank you
523
00:41:47,145 --> 00:41:49,482
Miss Springfield.
524
00:41:49,482 --> 00:41:50,566
Thank you
525
00:42:03,373 --> 00:42:06,043
Ah, you must be Belinda Kay.
Yes, I am.
526
00:42:06,043 --> 00:42:09,004
How kind of you to see me.
How are you?
527
00:42:09,004 --> 00:42:10,214
And who are you?
528
00:42:10,214 --> 00:42:12,800
I'm the man who telephoned.
529
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,135
Yes, of course you are.
530
00:42:19,809 --> 00:42:22,144
24 bottles of wine.
531
00:42:22,144 --> 00:42:24,439
Thank you. How thoughtful.
532
00:42:24,439 --> 00:42:26,983
Because I'm a journalist
I must be alcoholic?
533
00:42:26,983 --> 00:42:28,819
You've come from abroad?
534
00:42:28,819 --> 00:42:31,447
Erm...I hope you like Bourgueil.
535
00:42:31,447 --> 00:42:33,700
Well, aren't you the welcome guest?
536
00:42:39,956 --> 00:42:41,500
Come this way.
537
00:42:43,586 --> 00:42:45,754
Goodness, this is quite imposing.
538
00:42:49,301 --> 00:42:51,929
Hey! Hey.
539
00:42:51,929 --> 00:42:53,263
This is Barry.
540
00:42:53,263 --> 00:42:55,891
He's my boyfriend,
or some such thing...
541
00:42:55,891 --> 00:42:57,268
Hi. Barry.
542
00:42:57,268 --> 00:42:58,687
I was just making some tea.
543
00:42:58,687 --> 00:43:00,647
You're going to have to hop it.
544
00:43:00,647 --> 00:43:02,524
Sorry? This is confidential.
545
00:43:05,278 --> 00:43:06,987
Hop it!
546
00:43:06,987 --> 00:43:09,532
You never saw this man.
547
00:43:09,532 --> 00:43:11,701
He doesn't exist.
548
00:43:11,701 --> 00:43:13,620
He's none too bright.
549
00:43:14,955 --> 00:43:18,376
Come through.
Or perhaps you'd prefer whisky.
550
00:43:18,376 --> 00:43:21,421
Not right now, I need a clear head.
551
00:43:21,421 --> 00:43:23,757
Look, first of all I want
to thank you
552
00:43:23,757 --> 00:43:25,676
for all your paper's done already.
553
00:43:25,676 --> 00:43:27,178
It's been a wonderful job.
554
00:43:37,064 --> 00:43:39,651
Do you know how lonely that
makes an editor feel?
555
00:43:39,651 --> 00:43:41,777
You run a story
and no-one else touches it.
556
00:43:41,777 --> 00:43:43,905
I'm hoping we can change that.
557
00:43:43,905 --> 00:43:46,116
People have low expectations.
558
00:43:46,116 --> 00:43:49,745
You'd be surprised - Beasley's
feathering his nest, so what?
559
00:43:49,745 --> 00:43:52,040
He's got disreputable friends. So?
560
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,583
He's a politician.
561
00:43:53,583 --> 00:43:57,712
I'm hoping to make the story
a little more specific than that.
562
00:43:57,712 --> 00:44:00,007
A newspaper's not a blog, you know.
I know that.
563
00:44:00,007 --> 00:44:03,845
It's not just whatever you think, or
whatever anyone happens to tell you.
564
00:44:03,845 --> 00:44:05,513
There are editorial protocols.
565
00:44:05,513 --> 00:44:06,848
Have you ever heard of them?
566
00:44:06,848 --> 00:44:08,684
Of course.
I'm hoping to satisfy those.
567
00:44:08,684 --> 00:44:11,729
And somehow you're going to do that
without telling me your name?
568
00:44:11,729 --> 00:44:12,938
Unlikely.
569
00:44:15,024 --> 00:44:16,526
The girl's a plant, isn't she?
570
00:44:16,526 --> 00:44:19,029
No, I don't think so.
If you mean Allegra.
571
00:44:19,029 --> 00:44:21,240
The one with the damask cheek.
572
00:44:21,240 --> 00:44:23,409
She of the butter-wouldn't-melt
brigade.
573
00:44:23,409 --> 00:44:26,580
Allegra isn't a plant,
she's a conduit.
574
00:44:26,580 --> 00:44:29,958
As a matter of fact, she's
the niece of a colleague of mine.
575
00:44:29,958 --> 00:44:32,002
Well, there you are.
576
00:44:32,002 --> 00:44:33,755
That's England, one big family.
577
00:44:33,755 --> 00:44:37,550
And I suppose now she's served her
purpose it's time to move on to me.
578
00:44:39,135 --> 00:44:40,679
All right, go ahead.
579
00:44:41,888 --> 00:44:43,765
Make your pitch.
580
00:44:43,765 --> 00:44:45,434
OK.
581
00:44:47,144 --> 00:44:52,776
I don't know much you know about
Britain's intelligence service...
582
00:44:52,776 --> 00:44:54,612
Funny.
583
00:44:54,612 --> 00:44:57,031
I had a feeling
you might start there.
584
00:44:57,031 --> 00:45:00,868
Well, the last ten years have
been kind of bumpy.
585
00:45:00,868 --> 00:45:03,747
It used to be very
clear who the enemy was.
586
00:45:03,747 --> 00:45:05,916
And so also it was
clear what the job was.
587
00:45:05,916 --> 00:45:08,335
And then? And then we got caught
out.
588
00:45:08,335 --> 00:45:10,714
Trouble came from
an unexpected direction.
589
00:45:10,714 --> 00:45:13,300
Or rather it started
coming from every direction.
590
00:45:13,300 --> 00:45:17,096
Suddenly we were told we were meant
to be fighting a worldwide movement.
591
00:45:17,096 --> 00:45:18,598
And weren't you?
592
00:45:18,598 --> 00:45:21,268
Let's just say we got a bit
careless about distinguishing
593
00:45:21,268 --> 00:45:24,020
between people who would like to
do terrible things
594
00:45:24,020 --> 00:45:25,814
and people who were
actually doing them.
595
00:45:25,814 --> 00:45:28,484
We became indiscriminate
about the methods we used.
596
00:45:28,484 --> 00:45:33,073
It was dog eat dog.
The only problem is, we're not dogs.
597
00:45:33,073 --> 00:45:35,825
Is "indiscriminate methods"
a euphemism for torture?
598
00:45:35,825 --> 00:45:37,494
Torture's just part of an apparatus.
599
00:45:37,494 --> 00:45:41,332
An apparatus of bad practice,
which is out of control
600
00:45:41,332 --> 00:45:45,920
and which I don't believe is helping
anyone, least of all us.
601
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,550
Meanwhile, politicians
want to cut corners. Sure.
602
00:45:49,550 --> 00:45:52,470
Alec Beasley's been trying to
reorganise the service.
603
00:45:52,470 --> 00:45:54,597
Reorganise it? And bypass it.
604
00:45:54,597 --> 00:45:55,765
His mind's made up
605
00:45:55,765 --> 00:45:58,894
and the facts don't bother him.
Well that's his right, isn't it?
606
00:45:58,894 --> 00:46:01,439
After all, he won a couple of
elections. He certainly did.
607
00:46:01,439 --> 00:46:06,193
Because people like his strength.
He has a mandate. That is democracy.
608
00:46:06,193 --> 00:46:08,821
And, speaking for myself,
I have a great deal more faith
609
00:46:08,821 --> 00:46:12,952
in someone I've elected than some
disgruntled intelligence officer -
610
00:46:12,952 --> 00:46:15,705
I'm assuming that's what you are -
who arrives at my house
611
00:46:15,705 --> 00:46:18,500
with two cases of wine
and an outsized grievance.
612
00:46:18,500 --> 00:46:23,256
I'm too young, but you may remember
a prime minister called Harold
Wilson.
613
00:46:23,256 --> 00:46:24,715
I do remember him.
614
00:46:24,715 --> 00:46:27,177
Didn't the security services spend
a great deal of effort
615
00:46:27,177 --> 00:46:28,553
trying to get rid of him?
616
00:46:28,553 --> 00:46:30,347
I don't think that's ever
been proved.
617
00:46:30,347 --> 00:46:33,475
I didn't ask if it was proved,
I asked if it were true.
618
00:46:33,475 --> 00:46:36,270
And I'm not trying to get
rid of Beasley. Aren't you?
619
00:46:36,270 --> 00:46:38,940
No. I'm trying to put
the facts in front of the public.
620
00:46:40,859 --> 00:46:44,571
You're a very plausible fellow,
aren't you, whatever your name is.
621
00:46:44,571 --> 00:46:47,533
Remember, I'm a rat-catcher myself.
It takes one to know one.
622
00:46:47,533 --> 00:46:50,203
And everything you say stinks
to high heaven.
623
00:46:51,413 --> 00:46:52,581
Tell me why.
624
00:46:52,581 --> 00:46:55,501
No editor likes to be used.
625
00:46:55,501 --> 00:46:58,546
You may be burning to bring
down a prime minister, but I'm not.
626
00:46:58,546 --> 00:47:00,673
That's not my intention.
All I'm trying to do
627
00:47:00,673 --> 00:47:03,635
is throw a little light
on some of his activities.
628
00:47:03,635 --> 00:47:06,221
Oh, I see, this is assisted killing,
is it?
629
00:47:06,221 --> 00:47:09,684
You put the pill in the hand
but you don't put it in the mouth.
630
00:47:09,684 --> 00:47:11,018
No. You leave that to us.
631
00:47:11,018 --> 00:47:13,230
I mean, just one more question -
632
00:47:13,230 --> 00:47:16,692
aren't you rather over-stretching
your remit? I don't think so.
633
00:47:16,692 --> 00:47:19,361
I thought you were meant to gather
secrets, not give them away.
634
00:47:19,361 --> 00:47:22,365
So far, I don't remember giving
you any secrets. I thought you did.
635
00:47:22,365 --> 00:47:25,535
No. Everything you've been told has
been on the public record. Truly?
636
00:47:25,535 --> 00:47:27,663
Only, just like most
newspapers nowadays,
637
00:47:27,663 --> 00:47:30,542
you've lacked the diligence
to go out and find it.
638
00:47:31,875 --> 00:47:33,461
Or maybe the motivation?
639
00:47:38,342 --> 00:47:40,428
All right, these are the facts.
640
00:47:40,428 --> 00:47:42,722
Great. Let's hear them.
641
00:47:42,722 --> 00:47:46,476
The Prime Minister is linked to
a series of interlocking charities
642
00:47:46,476 --> 00:47:49,896
which are partly financed by a firm
called Gladstone.
643
00:47:51,357 --> 00:47:55,278
Gladstone has built an international
complex of detention camps
644
00:47:55,278 --> 00:47:56,905
which don't officially exist
645
00:47:56,905 --> 00:47:59,658
and for which they've therefore
been able to overcharge.
646
00:47:59,658 --> 00:48:01,368
Now you're telling me something new.
647
00:48:01,368 --> 00:48:04,038
The American government
has put pressure on them
648
00:48:04,038 --> 00:48:06,541
to get some of its money back.
A great deal of pressure.
649
00:48:06,541 --> 00:48:08,043
And have they succeeded?
650
00:48:09,211 --> 00:48:11,380
That's something you're going
to have to look into.
651
00:48:13,048 --> 00:48:15,218
OK.
652
00:48:15,218 --> 00:48:17,804
That's an interesting story,
I'm sure we'll want to cover it.
653
00:48:17,804 --> 00:48:19,430
We all love laughing at the Yanks,
654
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:22,225
but I still don't see how that
reflects on Alec Beasley. Don't you?
655
00:48:22,225 --> 00:48:23,393
No.
656
00:48:25,939 --> 00:48:27,356
I'll tell you.
657
00:48:27,356 --> 00:48:30,527
But if I do,
I'll be crossing a line.
658
00:48:30,527 --> 00:48:33,739
What sort of line? The secret line.
659
00:48:33,739 --> 00:48:36,409
I need to know
you're at peace with that.
660
00:48:36,409 --> 00:48:39,788
Shouldn't that question be
directed at you?
661
00:48:39,788 --> 00:48:41,498
Very well.
662
00:48:41,498 --> 00:48:43,584
It's going to be hard to unpick,
663
00:48:43,584 --> 00:48:46,212
because Beasley's affairs

Yeah.

I wonder...
672
00:49:22,295 --> 00:49:25,090
Would you be interested

she's heading home.

Where is she?

She's getting in

Heaven to live with.

My pleasure.

None of my business,
but you seem rather sad.
716
00:51:47,879 --> 00:51:50,966
I'm not sad. It's just...
717
00:51:50,966 --> 00:51:54,428
I suppose I was doing a job I loved
and now it's been taken away.
718
00:51:54,428 --> 00:51:56,890
You're an editor,
I imagine it's pretty good fun.
719
00:51:56,890 --> 00:51:57,932
And you were a spy.
720
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:00,894
Correct.
721
00:52:02,104 --> 00:52:06,484
And you're wondering,
"If I'm not a spy...
722
00:52:06,484 --> 00:52:08,319
"then what am I?"
723
00:52:12,866 --> 00:52:15,494
Shall we get back
to the matter in hand?
724
00:52:20,416 --> 00:52:24,129
There's a rule of thumb
with this kind of campaign.
725
00:52:24,129 --> 00:52:28,676
What do they say? "It's never
the crime, it's the cover-up."
726
00:52:28,676 --> 00:52:31,387
Well, there isn't a cover-up yet.
We haven't got that far.
727
00:52:31,387 --> 00:52:33,515
Right,
so we have to force him into one.
728
00:52:33,515 --> 00:52:35,976
We have to ask him questions
which he can't answer.
729
00:52:35,976 --> 00:52:38,062
Do you know
what those questions are?
730
00:52:38,062 --> 00:52:39,647
The other rule is, as you say,
731
00:52:39,647 --> 00:52:43,026
a campaign isn't a campaign if it's
only been picked up by one paper.
732
00:52:43,026 --> 00:52:45,571
No-one else is going to touch it
until they have to.
733
00:52:45,571 --> 00:52:48,782
Well, then we'd better make sure
the questions are good.
734
00:53:31,874 --> 00:53:33,751
Thanks, guys.
735
00:54:46,084 --> 00:54:47,794
You ARE good at this.

00:54:47,794 --> 00:54:49,046
Thank you.
737
00:54:51,298 --> 00:54:52,759
Why don't you have a jacket?
738
00:54:52,759 --> 00:54:55,428
Obviously cos I'm not as good
as you are. Where are we going?
739
00:54:55,428 --> 00:54:56,847
To a safe house.

How nice to meet you.

We were at Cambridge together.

00:55:21,166 --> 00:55:22,459
Goodness.
745
00:55:22,459 --> 00:55:25,255
Yes. Oh, yes. Johnny was
a very real loss to theology.
746
00:55:25,255 --> 00:55:27,674
Can I leave her in your hands,
Padre? Of course you can.

Anthea, can I say something?

It's one thing to go around
saying what you want.

The test comes when you're actually
given the chance to get it.

00:58:36,224 --> 00:58:38,143
Hmm, when he's in trouble.
795
00:58:38,143 --> 00:58:40,103
But you know how Johnny is.
796
00:58:40,103 --> 00:58:42,606
Once you're his friend,
you're his friend for ever.
797
00:58:42,606 --> 00:58:46,694
He's loyal, above all things.
But you know that.
798
00:58:48,155 --> 00:58:50,741
Yes. We were together a long time.
799
00:58:52,409 --> 00:58:53,953
He wasn't threatened by me.
800
00:58:55,162 --> 00:58:57,748
The stronger I was,
the more he liked it.
801
00:58:59,250 --> 00:59:01,044
That's rare.
802
00:59:01,044 --> 00:59:02,046
Good for him.
803
00:59:05,967 --> 00:59:07,551
You know him well?
804
00:59:07,551 --> 00:59:10,179
I helped him
through some difficult days.
805
00:59:10,179 --> 00:59:15,269
When he was a student,
he loved the idea of faith.
806
00:59:15,269 --> 00:59:16,729
The life of the church.
807
00:59:18,398 --> 00:59:22,110
So someone had to point out
that he didn't actually believe.
808
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,114
And that was you?
809
00:59:25,114 --> 00:59:27,116
Hm.
810
00:59:27,116 --> 00:59:29,202
And he didn't?
811
00:59:29,202 --> 00:59:33,707
No. He wanted to.
More than anything.
812
00:59:35,751 --> 00:59:37,920
But, sadly, that's not
the same thing.
813
00:59:51,936 --> 00:59:55,106
Thank you.
No, thank you.
814
00:59:55,106 --> 00:59:56,233

Your backhand's normally terrific.

01:01:17,869 --> 01:01:20,371
What the hell's going on?
My mind's elsewhere, sorry.
820
01:01:20,371 --> 01:01:23,250
I need you to give me a game.
Do you want to play properly?
821
01:01:23,250 --> 01:01:27,379
Cos if you don't play properly
there's no point in playing.
822
01:01:34,596 --> 01:01:37,349
Oh, come on, Stirling,
you can do better than that.
823
01:02:00,293 --> 01:02:02,044
All right, you know what this is.
824
01:02:02,044 --> 01:02:04,089
No, I don't.
You bloody well do!
825
01:02:04,089 --> 01:02:06,633
Ah...it's that again, is it?
I've reached a decision.
826
01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:11,764
Alec, I'm roadkill.
827
01:02:11,764 --> 01:02:14,017
I don't mean a thing.
Lose me, you lose nothing.
828
01:02:14,017 --> 01:02:17,312
Think, the press are after us.
It's only a question of time.
829
01:02:17,312 --> 01:02:19,648
So I issue a statement...
No.
830
01:02:19,648 --> 01:02:22,526
It's simple, "Everything I've done,
I've done in good faith.
831
01:02:22,526 --> 01:02:24,362
"My only interest has been
in safeguarding
832
01:02:24,362 --> 01:02:26,948
"the Prime Minister's legacy."
Stirling, no!
833
01:02:26,948 --> 01:02:30,911
However, unknown to you -
and this is the crucial part -
834
01:02:30,911 --> 01:02:35,166
unknown to you, "I took money
from certain people in the States."
835
01:02:35,166 --> 01:02:37,960
No...
But why not? It's a clean cut.
836
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:39,963
You know what it sounds like.
Unknown to me
837
01:02:39,963 --> 01:02:42,507
you took dodgy money and I'm
so stupid I didn't even know.
838
01:02:42,507 --> 01:02:44,760
Alec, you know where this is going.
No, I don't.
839
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:47,805
It's going where every
political scandal always goes.
840
01:02:47,805 --> 01:02:50,433
The press doesn't give a fuck
about the issues,
841
01:02:50,433 --> 01:02:53,061
they just want a kill.
Clearly.
842
01:02:53,061 --> 01:02:56,023
Well, here I am.
I'm offering myself.
843
01:02:56,023 --> 01:03:00,028
No. And for one very good reason -
if I go, the screaming's over.
844
01:03:00,028 --> 01:03:02,030
But it doesn't work like that.
845
01:03:02,030 --> 01:03:03,365
Then how does it work?
846
01:03:03,365 --> 01:03:06,035
If you give them fresh blood
then they always want more.
847
01:03:06,035 --> 01:03:08,496
Now, a week ago you told me
this wasn't important.
848
01:03:08,496 --> 01:03:12,542
A week ago it wasn't! Well!
849
01:03:12,542 --> 01:03:16,338
Jesus! Everything I do
I do for my country.
850
01:03:16,338 --> 01:03:18,882
Oh, and that makes it all right?
851
01:03:18,882 --> 01:03:21,010
What did you say?
852
01:03:21,010 --> 01:03:22,971
Nothing.
853
01:03:22,971 --> 01:03:25,640
Stirling, are you going weak on me?
No.
854
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:27,810
Are you going soft?
No.
855
01:03:27,810 --> 01:03:30,187
I'm the only person who takes
this threat seriously.
856
01:03:30,187 --> 01:03:33,066
I take it seriously. If you saw
the files, if you saw the evidence,
857
01:03:33,066 --> 01:03:35,360
I can't show you the stuff
that I am seeing,
858
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,948
but the intelligence is frightening,
it is!
859
01:03:38,948 --> 01:03:41,492
And people have a choice -
help me, or help them.
860
01:03:41,492 --> 01:03:44,537
And now we're being told,
keep our hands tied behind our backs
861
01:03:44,537 --> 01:03:46,248
while they kick our lights out!
862
01:03:46,248 --> 01:03:48,083
"Stick to the rules."
863
01:03:48,083 --> 01:03:50,460
Bring on the lawyers,
is that what you want?
864
01:03:50,460 --> 01:03:52,964
No. What I want is for you
to survive.
865
01:03:52,964 --> 01:03:56,259
I want you to be Prime Minister
at this time next week.
866
01:03:56,259 --> 01:03:57,469
That's what I want.
867
01:03:58,846 --> 01:04:01,348
No, they won't get me.
I'm ahead of them.
868
01:04:01,348 --> 01:04:03,476
Always have been.
Always will be.
869
01:04:07,439 --> 01:04:09,232
I'm sorry, sir.
You really are needed.
870
01:04:10,693 --> 01:04:13,279
That's the whole point, do you see?
They want both things.
871
01:04:13,279 --> 01:04:17,617
Like children. They need me
and they resent me. Both things.
872
01:04:17,617 --> 01:04:19,828
Before you do anything,
speak to me first.
873
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:23,582
Ted...
874
01:04:30,131 --> 01:04:33,969
TV: 'The situation is quiet clear,
everyone knows what's going on.
875
01:04:33,969 --> 01:04:37,724
'For days now, the Prime Minister
has been evading our questions.
876
01:04:37,724 --> 01:04:40,769
'We have to conclude he is not
answering because he can't.
877
01:04:40,769 --> 01:04:44,106
'There are five questions
we have asked the Prime Minister
878
01:04:44,106 --> 01:04:45,524
'that he has to answer.
879
01:04:45,524 --> 01:04:49,278
'If he can't answer them, he should
say so, and he should say so now.
880
01:04:49,278 --> 01:04:52,199
'If he can
and there is a simple explanation,
881
01:04:52,199 --> 01:04:55,244
'then no-one is going to be happier
than The Independent.'
882
01:05:07,341 --> 01:05:08,926
DOOR OPENS
883
01:05:21,190 --> 01:05:23,109
So...what do you think?
884
01:05:23,109 --> 01:05:25,320
He's wounded.
Fatally?
885
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,740
Have you seen the five questions?
I have.
886
01:05:28,991 --> 01:05:31,368
"Has the Prime Minister met with
Church and Bethwaite?
887
01:05:31,368 --> 01:05:33,788
"Did the Prime Minister know
the murdered man?
888
01:05:33,788 --> 01:05:37,250
"Did the Prime Minister know
of their donations to the Bridge?
889
01:05:37,250 --> 01:05:39,503
"Was the Prime Minister aware
of a network of
890
01:05:39,503 --> 01:05:42,715
"illegal detention centres
built by Gladstone?
891
01:05:42,715 --> 01:05:47,387
"Has the Prime Minister benefited
personally from Gladstone?"
892
01:05:47,387 --> 01:05:49,264
They're not bad questions.
893
01:05:50,307 --> 01:05:53,143
Has he said anything?
In private? In cabinet?
894
01:05:53,143 --> 01:05:56,273
He's refusing, on the grounds
of national security.
895
01:05:56,273 --> 01:06:00,236
Ha! It's not going to wash.
Are you sure?
896
01:06:00,236 --> 01:06:02,362
Certain. I've known from the start.
897
01:06:02,362 --> 01:06:04,365
From the minute
I first saw the evidence.
898
01:06:05,699 --> 01:06:10,164
Hm. I am going to have to rally
round him. Publicly.
899
01:06:10,164 --> 01:06:13,250
If you feel it's necessary.
I do. Very much so.
900
01:06:13,250 --> 01:06:15,420
Be careful.
Careful of what?
901
01:06:15,420 --> 01:06:17,297
Your own future.
Meaning?
902
01:06:17,297 --> 01:06:20,008
Hostages to fortune.
How everything will look in a week.
903
01:06:26,223 --> 01:06:27,642
How's Bill?
904
01:06:29,644 --> 01:06:32,021
He's fine.
905
01:06:32,021 --> 01:06:34,649
You're not going to divorce?
906
01:06:34,649 --> 01:06:37,904
I'm not. Not yet.
907
01:06:37,904 --> 01:06:39,697
Good. You shouldn't.
908
01:06:39,697 --> 01:06:41,200
I won't.
909
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:42,701
Good.
910
01:06:42,701 --> 01:06:43,994
Why do you ask?
911
01:06:46,038 --> 01:06:49,333
What's that phrase about
getting your ducks in a row?
912
01:06:52,879 --> 01:06:54,673
I-I'll take one more question.
913
01:06:54,673 --> 01:06:57,217
I hope I have already made
everything clear.
914
01:06:57,217 --> 01:07:00,638
I have returned all money received
from Gladstone and I have personally
915
01:07:00,638 --> 01:07:04,726
resigned from the foundation
to leave its reputation unharmed.
916
01:07:04,726 --> 01:07:10,316
At all times, Alec Beasley has been
separated from the day-to-day
917
01:07:10,316 --> 01:07:12,527
activities... No. ..of The Bridge
918
01:07:12,527 --> 01:07:15,113
and any criticism regarding
funding falls on me alone.
919
01:07:15,113 --> 01:07:17,366
He shouldn't have done it.
He didn't need to.
920
01:07:17,366 --> 01:07:19,576
He said he was going to
talk to me first.
921
01:07:19,576 --> 01:07:21,787
Perhaps he found the pressure
unbearable.
922
01:07:21,787 --> 01:07:25,500
Pressure? Pressure is like whiplash,
it doesn't exist.
923
01:07:30,381 --> 01:07:34,385
'I'm not in any way admitting
liability or even error.
924
01:07:34,385 --> 01:07:37,305
'I want to be clear about that.
On the other hand...'
925
01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:43,062
I've made my decision.
926
01:07:49,111 --> 01:07:51,279
We still need to find Worricker.
927
01:07:51,279 --> 01:07:53,407
Until we find him,
we're not out of this yet.
928
01:07:55,577 --> 01:07:58,496
CLOCK TICKS
929
01:07:59,831 --> 01:08:00,874
It's eerie.
930
01:08:02,543 --> 01:08:03,669
It's quiet, yes.
931
01:08:09,426 --> 01:08:12,345
Can we turn on the news?
We heard it an hour ago.
932
01:08:12,345 --> 01:08:14,807
So?
933
01:08:14,807 --> 01:08:16,810
I wouldn't do that.
934
01:08:16,810 --> 01:08:19,354
Why not?
It's the road to destruction.
935
01:08:21,022 --> 01:08:22,357
Gosh. Hm.
936
01:08:25,694 --> 01:08:28,281
You always look out for me.
937
01:08:28,281 --> 01:08:29,991
Always.
938
01:08:29,991 --> 01:08:33,203
Where's Bernard?
He's saying Matins.
939
01:08:33,203 --> 01:08:35,372
Oh, no doubt alone.
940
01:08:35,372 --> 01:08:37,124
He doesn't mind.
He's talking to God.
941
01:08:37,124 --> 01:08:39,293
He doesn't care
if anyone's listening.
942
01:08:40,462 --> 01:08:42,339
Why are you smiling?
943
01:08:45,383 --> 01:08:48,554
I know you better than
anyone knows you, Johnny.
944
01:08:48,554 --> 01:08:52,309
I know where you're heading.
I can see your endgame.
945
01:08:52,309 --> 01:08:54,937
PHONE RINGS
946
01:08:54,937 --> 01:08:56,272
Rollo?
947
01:08:56,272 --> 01:08:59,651
He's gone. Who's gone?
Stirling Rogers. Rogers has gone.
What happened?
948
01:08:59,651 --> 01:09:02,821
He's giving a press conference,
saying the whole thing's his fault.
949
01:09:02,821 --> 01:09:05,615
Better still, he's saying
the Prime Minister knew nothing.
950
01:09:05,615 --> 01:09:07,910
Yes! He's walking into the trap,
it appears.
951
01:09:07,910 --> 01:09:11,121
You trust it? You think
we've got him? Let's hope so.
952
01:09:11,121 --> 01:09:12,415
PHONE CHIMES
953
01:09:12,415 --> 01:09:16,545
Margot, don't touch it! I've got
to go. Why not? You don't know
who it's from. It's Julianne.
954
01:09:16,545 --> 01:09:19,882
It's not safe, leave it, we should
have destroyed it! Margot?
Yes, it's me.
955
01:09:19,882 --> 01:09:23,803
'I need to see you. Desperately.
Are you in the country?
Something terrible's happened.'
956
01:09:23,803 --> 01:09:26,806
Julianne, is the baby all right?
'Yes, yes, but can you tell Dad'
957
01:09:26,806 --> 01:09:29,476
I need to see him?
Yes, of course I will.
958
01:09:29,476 --> 01:09:32,438
And he must call immediately
before you get here. Promise me.
959
01:09:32,438 --> 01:09:34,815
Don't worry. We're on our way.
See you soon.
960
01:09:34,815 --> 01:09:36,818
HUBBUB
961
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:41,740
OK, we're in business,
it's good, I think we've got 'em.
962
01:09:41,740 --> 01:09:43,743
Where are they?
We've got a signal.
963
01:09:43,743 --> 01:09:46,871
I'll know more in a minute
but it seems to be Kent.
964
01:09:46,871 --> 01:09:49,583
Johnny, we have to go.
Julianne says it's serious...
965
01:09:49,583 --> 01:09:52,628
Hold on a minute, give me a time to
think... There is no time to think.
966
01:09:52,628 --> 01:09:54,672
She said, "Can you tell Dad
I need to see him?"
967
01:09:54,672 --> 01:09:57,425
Margot, we need to be careful.
Johnny, it's your daughter!
968
01:09:57,425 --> 01:09:59,886
I'm concerned that
the phone isn't safe!
969
01:09:59,886 --> 01:10:02,514
Oh, fuck the phone!
We can't go together!
970
01:10:02,514 --> 01:10:07,395
What difference does it make?
When Julianne calls, you go.
Do you have a problem with that?
971
01:10:07,395 --> 01:10:09,564
How long have you been
working on this?
972
01:10:09,564 --> 01:10:11,107
Four months.
973
01:10:11,107 --> 01:10:12,942
Just the four?
Exactly.
974
01:10:14,111 --> 01:10:17,531
OK, good, here we go.
Here is the location.
975
01:10:17,531 --> 01:10:19,284
Let's get going.
976
01:10:22,871 --> 01:10:27,501
I vehemently reject all allegations.
But, I don't understand,
977
01:10:27,501 --> 01:10:30,296
if you're innocent of everything,
why do you have to resign?
978
01:10:30,296 --> 01:10:32,424
LAUGHTER
979
01:10:32,424 --> 01:10:35,677
Yep.
Finally we've got them. Again.
980
01:10:35,677 --> 01:10:38,222
Where are they?
He's in a rectory in Kent.
981
01:10:38,222 --> 01:10:40,975
But he's coming into town
to see his daughter.
982
01:10:40,975 --> 01:10:43,561
Then please baby them in.
I'm sorry?
983
01:10:45,022 --> 01:10:47,524
I don't want anyone
moving towards them.
984
01:10:48,943 --> 01:10:51,153
I've been working on this
for months.
985
01:10:51,153 --> 01:10:55,116
I know.
I thought the idea was we were meant
to be trying to catch them.
986
01:10:55,116 --> 01:10:58,078
We are. But don't detain them.
Keep them under surveillance.
987
01:10:58,078 --> 01:11:00,164
Keep your distance. That's an order.
988
01:11:00,164 --> 01:11:03,376
Nobody's to go near them
until they get an order from me.
989
01:11:06,087 --> 01:11:07,839
I don't believe this.
990
01:11:10,885 --> 01:11:15,348
If there was any offence,
it's just from caring too much.
991
01:11:20,354 --> 01:11:22,982
Julianne...
Margot.
992
01:11:48,552 --> 01:11:51,222
You were right. You were right
to call us... It's Jez.
993
01:11:51,222 --> 01:11:55,143
Jez? Yes. How do you know?
I've suspected for weeks.
Well then, why didn't you tell me?
994
01:11:55,143 --> 01:11:58,064
Why didn't I tell you?
Why do you think?
995
01:11:58,064 --> 01:11:59,440
Because you never ring!
996
01:11:59,440 --> 01:12:02,402
And also, sorry,
I don't want to live like that.
997
01:12:02,402 --> 01:12:04,780
Being suspicious of everyone.
998
01:12:04,780 --> 01:12:07,157
Jesus! Do I ever get a life
that's not about you?
999
01:12:07,157 --> 01:12:08,618
"What does your father do?"
1000
01:12:08,618 --> 01:12:10,871
"Oh, I can't say,
he's in the civil service."
1001
01:12:10,871 --> 01:12:14,583
As long as I can remember -
"What's Dad doing?" "Don't know.
1002
01:12:14,583 --> 01:12:17,253
"Can't say." You ruined mum's life.
That's ridiculous!
1003
01:12:17,253 --> 01:12:20,214
You ruin the life of everyone
you're close to.
1004
01:12:20,214 --> 01:12:23,593
I was in love with him!
You've never known what that means.
1005
01:12:25,095 --> 01:12:26,555
Human drama.
1006
01:12:26,555 --> 01:12:28,223
She doesn't seem happy.
1007
01:12:28,223 --> 01:12:30,226
He did really work as a DJ?
Yes.
1008
01:12:30,226 --> 01:12:31,853
He did really play in the evenings?
1009
01:12:31,853 --> 01:12:34,147
Yes. Everything else was a lie.
1010
01:12:34,147 --> 01:12:37,151
Like he said he'd be here
for the birth... Julianne...
1011
01:12:37,151 --> 01:12:39,987
Which he won't. And never had
any intention of being.
1012
01:12:39,987 --> 01:12:41,865
OK. Right from the start!
1013
01:12:41,865 --> 01:12:43,575
Julianne... Just leave me.
1014
01:12:43,575 --> 01:12:45,201
Please...
1015
01:12:45,201 --> 01:12:47,705
Every time she moves
she gets closer to us.
1016
01:12:47,705 --> 01:12:49,331
Can you hear anything?
1017
01:12:49,331 --> 01:12:52,377
No. Lip-read.
1018
01:12:52,377 --> 01:12:55,338
Don't come near me! Don't touch me!
1019
01:12:55,338 --> 01:12:58,258
"And then when she's calm,
I'll have dealt with her."
1020
01:12:58,258 --> 01:12:59,759
That's not fair.
1021
01:12:59,759 --> 01:13:02,722
Why don't you just say, "Julianne,
I'm sorry, this is my fault?"
1022
01:13:02,722 --> 01:13:04,724
Julianne, I know it's my fault!
Good!
1023
01:13:04,724 --> 01:13:07,185
Why do you think I'm in agony?!
Oh!
1024
01:13:07,185 --> 01:13:10,522
Oh, you're in agony? Oh, really?
1025
01:13:10,522 --> 01:13:12,775
Great. And for how long?
1026
01:13:12,775 --> 01:13:15,736
He's standing there.
Why can't we move in?
1027
01:13:18,699 --> 01:13:20,367
Can anyone tell me what's going on?
1028
01:13:20,367 --> 01:13:22,536
Yeah? Where are you?
1029
01:13:22,536 --> 01:13:25,039
I'm in London. I can't explain.
It's a mess.
1030
01:13:25,039 --> 01:13:27,458
Sorry, comrade,
but we need to jump five stages.
1031
01:13:27,458 --> 01:13:29,544
I've just had a very interesting
call. Who from?
1032
01:13:29,544 --> 01:13:30,753
I'll give you a number.
1033
01:13:30,753 --> 01:13:33,632
You need to call it because he's
ahead of us. He's nine miles ahead.
1034
01:13:35,218 --> 01:13:37,762
Is this who I think it is?
1035
01:13:37,762 --> 01:13:39,097
10 Downing Street.
1036
01:13:39,097 --> 01:13:42,351
'My name is Worricker. I think
you'll find, if you tell him,
1037
01:13:42,351 --> 01:13:44,770
'the Prime Minister will want
to have a word with me.'
1038
01:13:44,770 --> 01:13:47,356
What name again?
'Johnny Worricker.'
1039
01:13:47,356 --> 01:13:48,524
Hold on, will you please?
1040
01:13:49,901 --> 01:13:53,572
Mr Finch, there's a man on the line
called Johnny Worricker...
1041
01:13:55,991 --> 01:13:58,661
Yes, thank you,
please put him through.
1042
01:13:59,912 --> 01:14:02,291
'Hello, who am I speaking to?'
1043
01:14:02,291 --> 01:14:03,959
Is that you, Mr Worricker?
1044
01:14:03,959 --> 01:14:05,210
Yes. 'Good.'
1045
01:14:05,210 --> 01:14:08,214
'I'm sure the Prime Minister would
like you to come in immediately.'
1046
01:14:08,214 --> 01:14:10,424
Come in?
To Downing Street.
1047
01:14:10,424 --> 01:14:13,136
'Good.'
Are you far away?
1048
01:14:13,136 --> 01:14:16,473
Not at all. Less than a minute.
1049
01:14:16,473 --> 01:14:20,227
But just one thing.
Could you come in the back?
1050
01:14:43,379 --> 01:14:47,092
My name is Johnny Worricker,
I'm expected.
1051
01:14:47,092 --> 01:14:48,551
OK, sir.
1052
01:15:14,331 --> 01:15:15,917
KNOCK ON DOOR
1053
01:15:18,836 --> 01:15:21,673
Ah...here you are at last.
1054
01:15:21,673 --> 01:15:23,091
Prime Minister.
1055
01:15:24,593 --> 01:15:27,138
The missing piece of the jigsaw.
1056
01:15:27,138 --> 01:15:28,682
You can leave us.
1057
01:15:32,477 --> 01:15:35,355
How was your spell as an emigre?
Disconcerting.
1058
01:15:35,355 --> 01:15:39,068
I'm sure.
I needed to see you one more time.
1059
01:15:39,068 --> 01:15:41,196
Me too.
Please...
1060
01:15:48,496 --> 01:15:51,165
We had a good talk in Cambridge
six months ago.
1061
01:15:51,165 --> 01:15:54,753
But then you went off and did
the very opposite of what I asked.
1062
01:15:54,753 --> 01:15:57,088
You defied me.
Sir, if I may...
1063
01:15:57,088 --> 01:15:58,590
Carry on.
1064
01:15:58,590 --> 01:16:02,804
I accept in the circumstances
that I'm fair game. Of course.
1065
01:16:02,804 --> 01:16:05,474
But my daughter's flat is
being bugged.
1066
01:16:05,474 --> 01:16:09,895
An M15 operative seduced her
when she was already pregnant.
1067
01:16:09,895 --> 01:16:13,816
My daughter isn't fair game.
Go after me, don't go after her.
1068
01:16:14,942 --> 01:16:17,738
I agree.
I'm sorry...?
1069
01:16:17,738 --> 01:16:19,949
You're right. Mutual hysteria.
1070
01:16:21,325 --> 01:16:22,994
Isn't it time it was defused?
1071
01:16:27,540 --> 01:16:30,586
I'll tell you what
I've been thinking -
1072
01:16:30,586 --> 01:16:33,631
I've accomplished pretty much
all I set out to do.
1073
01:16:33,631 --> 01:16:35,842
We've modernised the country
and we may even
1074
01:16:35,842 --> 01:16:38,720
have alerted its people
to some of the dangers they face.
1075
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:41,390
I don't understand.
Are you resigning?
1076
01:16:41,390 --> 01:16:44,101
You're not getting my scalp,
if that's what you hope.
1077
01:16:44,101 --> 01:16:46,312
I'm not moving out, I'm moving up.
1078
01:16:48,564 --> 01:16:50,484
It's Iran we have to deal with now.
1079
01:16:50,484 --> 01:16:53,404
And I'm not fussy about
what platform I work from.
1080
01:16:53,404 --> 01:16:56,908
Perhaps a sympathetic American
president means more to me
1081
01:16:56,908 --> 01:16:59,202
than an ambivalent
British electorate.
1082
01:16:59,202 --> 01:17:01,288
You're planning to move on
to another job?
1083
01:17:01,288 --> 01:17:03,332
Correct. What job is that?
1084
01:17:03,332 --> 01:17:06,418
Consul General to Iran.
I run the peace talks.
1085
01:17:06,418 --> 01:17:09,714
Peace?
Well...preferably peace.
1086
01:17:09,714 --> 01:17:11,258
Answering to whom?
1087
01:17:11,258 --> 01:17:14,386
Financed by the Americans,
but given cover by the UN.
1088
01:17:16,097 --> 01:17:18,683
Forgive me, I'm not sure
you're going to be able
1089
01:17:18,683 --> 01:17:20,351
to cut free as easily as that.
1090
01:17:20,351 --> 01:17:22,020
Aren't you? No.
1091
01:17:22,020 --> 01:17:24,106
Is that a threat?
Not at all.
1092
01:17:24,106 --> 01:17:25,983
Tell me,
are you running a campaign?
1093
01:17:25,983 --> 01:17:28,695
Because that's how it looks.
1094
01:17:28,695 --> 01:17:32,115
A single intelligence officer
determined to stop me.
1095
01:17:33,575 --> 01:17:35,035
What are you?
1096
01:17:35,994 --> 01:17:37,329
A loose cannon?
1097
01:17:38,706 --> 01:17:40,375
A traitor?
1098
01:17:46,089 --> 01:17:48,008
Well, then, what are you doing?
1099
01:17:50,678 --> 01:17:54,057
Judiciously pointing out
the dangers. Such as?
1100
01:17:54,057 --> 01:17:57,102
There's a new boss at the CIA.
Yes, you're right.
1101
01:17:57,102 --> 01:17:59,647
With new plans.
Wants to make a clean break.
1102
01:17:59,647 --> 01:18:01,732
The president's already
had a word with him.
1103
01:18:01,732 --> 01:18:04,027
I think you'll find any future
CIA investigation
1104
01:18:04,027 --> 01:18:07,448
into private contractors will get
bogged down pretty quickly.
1105
01:18:08,448 --> 01:18:10,576
People don't like
investigating each other,
1106
01:18:10,576 --> 01:18:14,372
because they are aware that later
they may be investigated themselves.
1107
01:18:14,372 --> 01:18:16,124
If you talk to the President,
1108
01:18:16,124 --> 01:18:18,376
you'll find he's pretty clear
on the subject.
1109
01:18:18,376 --> 01:18:21,088
After all, one day he's going to be
an ex-President too.
1110
01:18:21,088 --> 01:18:24,509
And here? Here?
Yes. In the UK?
1111
01:18:24,509 --> 01:18:26,553
You don't think
you face problems here?
1112
01:18:26,553 --> 01:18:28,055
I don't see any.
1113
01:18:28,055 --> 01:18:30,765
My favoured successor is hardly
likely to waste her first
1114
01:18:30,765 --> 01:18:34,144
hundred days digging too deeply into
the financial affairs of the Bridge.
1115
01:18:34,144 --> 01:18:38,483
To what end? Anthea's experiencing
a period of personal good fortune.
1116
01:18:38,483 --> 01:18:40,026
Maybe you read about it?
1117
01:18:40,026 --> 01:18:42,237
When it comes to sleeping dogs,
1118
01:18:42,237 --> 01:18:44,991
Anthea's the kind
who'll let them lie.
1119
01:18:47,661 --> 01:18:52,040
What is it they say?
"The Establishment always wins."
1120
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:53,792
You should know that.
1121
01:18:53,792 --> 01:18:57,047
You're a distinguished member
of the Establishment yourself.
1122
01:18:59,591 --> 01:19:01,968
What did you think
we were going to do?
1123
01:19:03,261 --> 01:19:04,805
Bleach you?
1124
01:19:06,057 --> 01:19:08,184
We don't bleach people in England.
1125
01:19:10,854 --> 01:19:13,273
No home. No bank account.
1126
01:19:13,273 --> 01:19:17,403
No security. No way of life,
100% surveillance.
1127
01:19:17,403 --> 01:19:19,155
You know the drill.
1128
01:19:19,155 --> 01:19:22,367
You've done it to others,
now we'll do it to you.
1129
01:19:35,340 --> 01:19:38,051
What are you offering?
Good question.
1130
01:19:38,051 --> 01:19:39,637
An amnesty?
1131
01:19:39,637 --> 01:19:41,222
Johnny...
1132
01:19:43,225 --> 01:19:47,104
..in the last few years, the
government moved at a certain speed
1133
01:19:47,104 --> 01:19:49,440
because we faced
an overwhelming threat.
1134
01:19:51,526 --> 01:19:52,902
This is the real world.
1135
01:19:52,902 --> 01:19:56,698
There's always a tension
between aims and means.
1136
01:19:56,698 --> 01:19:58,575
Maybe even a contradiction.
1137
01:20:00,703 --> 01:20:03,706
I'll live with that.
The question is, can you?
1138
01:20:06,417 --> 01:20:07,794
We need your silence.
1139
01:20:12,258 --> 01:20:14,803
I'm to be silent about lawlessness?
1140
01:20:16,763 --> 01:20:20,684
Permanently and guaranteed.
You've got to think what that means.
1141
01:20:23,729 --> 01:20:25,648
I've thought about it a great deal.
1142
01:20:27,483 --> 01:20:29,862
You make a deal, you go back on it.
1143
01:20:31,446 --> 01:20:33,407
In my world, you only do that once.
1144
01:20:43,544 --> 01:20:47,381
Now, if you'll forgive me,
I have to go to the Palace.
1145
01:20:47,381 --> 01:20:50,593
I'd offer you a lift
but you might be conspicuous.
1146
01:20:50,593 --> 01:20:54,681
Anyway, I imagine you have to report
to that crapulous Scot in the park.
1147
01:20:54,681 --> 01:20:57,018
I don't report to him. No?
1148
01:21:00,396 --> 01:21:03,233
You say you'd like your daughter
left alone. I would.
1149
01:21:03,233 --> 01:21:05,444
And your girlfriend too,
I should think.
1150
01:21:05,444 --> 01:21:07,780
She's a very interesting woman,
isn't she?
1151
01:21:07,780 --> 01:21:10,658
This one really is something
more than run of the mill.
1152
01:21:12,326 --> 01:21:14,412
You're a lucky man, aren't you?
1153
01:21:14,412 --> 01:21:16,832
You never seem to suffer
for your mistakes.
1154
01:21:18,250 --> 01:21:19,460
What a gift.
1155
01:21:21,337 --> 01:21:24,675
We're both cats
who fall on our feet. Ted!
1156
01:21:24,675 --> 01:21:27,720
Mr Worricker's leaving.
We won't be seeing him again.
1157
01:21:44,239 --> 01:21:45,532
So, what's happening?
1158
01:21:45,532 --> 01:21:47,201
He's quitting.
Quitting?
1159
01:21:47,201 --> 01:21:49,703
He moves on to Iran. Promotion.
1160
01:21:49,703 --> 01:21:52,123
Promotion -
is that what he's calling it?
1161
01:21:52,123 --> 01:21:55,251
This doesn't feel like a victory.
Why does it not feel like a victory?
1162
01:21:55,251 --> 01:21:57,963
Obvious. Because I don't think
we've ever been in control.
1163
01:21:57,963 --> 01:22:00,883
You're to call Jill Tankard.
She wants to see you. Where?
1164
01:22:00,883 --> 01:22:03,636
Wherever you say. She knows
I'm with you? Seems to.
1165
01:22:03,636 --> 01:22:06,055
Well, yeah, of course.
That fits. We've been used.
1166
01:22:06,055 --> 01:22:08,725
All the time they've known
everything. Are you going to go?
1167
01:22:08,725 --> 01:22:12,688
I don't know. I'm trying to get hold
of Julianne. She not answering.
Fuck!
1168
01:22:12,688 --> 01:22:15,233
I'm trying Margot.
I left them together.
1169
01:22:17,777 --> 01:22:19,279
Shit!
1170
01:22:22,074 --> 01:22:23,993
Johnny? Yes?
1171
01:22:23,993 --> 01:22:25,954
If you do see Jill,
could you do me a favour?
1172
01:22:28,831 --> 01:22:30,459
Try and get me back in.
1173
01:22:49,271 --> 01:22:50,732
Welcome back.
1174
01:22:52,150 --> 01:22:55,195
I heard you had
a nice time with Alec.
1175
01:22:55,195 --> 01:22:59,241
Jill. It's a shame
you two never got close.
1176
01:22:59,241 --> 01:23:02,162
They always say it's difficult
if two men are too alike.
1177
01:23:02,162 --> 01:23:04,748
One of those boys'
love-hate things, is it?
1178
01:23:10,421 --> 01:23:13,508
It's happening. Now.
Even as we speak.
1179
01:23:13,508 --> 01:23:17,430
What is? He's seeing the Queen.
You must be pleased.
1180
01:23:17,430 --> 01:23:21,434
Why? Well, wasn't it your idea
to bring him down?
1181
01:23:21,434 --> 01:23:23,644
It's interesting
you should say that.
1182
01:23:23,644 --> 01:23:27,149
As a matter of fact, Jill,
I rather thought it was yours.
1183
01:23:27,149 --> 01:23:31,445
Ah, Mr Worricker we haven't seen you
for such a long time.
1184
01:23:31,445 --> 01:23:32,947
I've missed you too.
1185
01:23:32,947 --> 01:23:35,742
We still have a bottle of scotch
in the back.
1186
01:23:35,742 --> 01:23:37,870
Do you mind fetching it?
1187
01:23:41,123 --> 01:23:43,919
I tell you, I had my suspicions
for quite a long time.
1188
01:23:43,919 --> 01:23:46,754
Really? I noticed
things were strangely easy.
1189
01:23:46,754 --> 01:23:48,799
As if our paths were being smoothed.
1190
01:23:48,799 --> 01:23:52,052
I mean, the choice of Amber Page...
1191
01:23:52,052 --> 01:23:53,429
What about her?
1192
01:23:53,429 --> 01:23:56,349
Never our most brilliant agent,
was she?
1193
01:23:56,349 --> 01:23:58,810
She did the job.
Yeah, badly.
1194
01:23:58,810 --> 01:24:00,645
Amber did her best.
1195
01:24:00,645 --> 01:24:02,898
Yes. That's what I mean.
1196
01:24:04,108 --> 01:24:06,485
And that business in Kiev...
Kiev, yes.
1197
01:24:06,485 --> 01:24:08,280
..had your fingerprints all over it.
1198
01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:10,657
You think so? You liked that,
did you? I liked it,
1199
01:24:10,657 --> 01:24:12,951
I wasn't sure
why Beasley had agreed to it.
1200
01:24:12,951 --> 01:24:15,538
It wasn't in his interest. I didn't
ask. I didn't need to.
1201
01:24:15,538 --> 01:24:19,083
How did you do that? I've been
a long time in Whitehall, remember?
1202
01:24:19,083 --> 01:24:21,086
I'm a data bank, Johnny.
1203
01:24:21,086 --> 01:24:25,758
And, please, don't make this out
to be some sort of coup.
1204
01:24:25,758 --> 01:24:27,051
Why? Wasn't it?
1205
01:24:27,051 --> 01:24:30,346
No. I wouldn't dream of messing
with the electorate's wishes.
1206
01:24:30,346 --> 01:24:33,267
That's way above my pay grade.
What would you call it then?
1207
01:24:33,267 --> 01:24:35,394
All I did was make
some preparations.
1208
01:24:35,394 --> 01:24:37,939
That's all I did
for an orderly hand-over.
1209
01:24:37,939 --> 01:24:39,858
As any good democrat would.
1210
01:24:41,944 --> 01:24:44,612
That's very good. Thank you.
1211
01:24:44,612 --> 01:24:46,573
I smoothed the way.
1212
01:24:46,573 --> 01:24:49,452
I made what would have been
difficult, easy.
1213
01:24:50,619 --> 01:24:52,789
What I don't understand,
why did you do it?
1214
01:24:52,789 --> 01:24:55,875
Beasley was on your side. Your whole
life, you owe him everything.
1215
01:24:55,875 --> 01:24:57,545
He was the one who put you in place.
1216
01:24:57,545 --> 01:25:00,965
Why did I do it? Yes. Simple.
Same reason as you.
1217
01:25:02,801 --> 01:25:05,053
Johnny, I saw the evidence.
1218
01:25:05,053 --> 01:25:08,348
When I saw the evidence,
I knew he was finished.
1219
01:25:08,348 --> 01:25:12,270
Ah, thank you, you're very kind.
1220
01:25:12,270 --> 01:25:15,982
It belonged to Mr Baron.
We didn't know what to do with it.
1221
01:25:18,985 --> 01:25:20,696
We all loved Mr Baron.
1222
01:25:20,696 --> 01:25:22,657
I'll look after it, thank you.
1223
01:25:22,657 --> 01:25:23,950
I miss him.
1224
01:25:23,950 --> 01:25:25,952
We all miss him.
1225
01:25:36,506 --> 01:25:40,511
Looking back at the events
of the past few years,
1226
01:25:40,511 --> 01:25:44,516
I don't think either of us has been
wholly right or wrong.
1227
01:25:44,516 --> 01:25:46,935
Life doesn't work like that,
does it?
1228
01:25:46,935 --> 01:25:51,523
I can see your point of view
and I suspect that you can see mine.
1229
01:25:53,025 --> 01:25:54,444
You know what I want for you?
1230
01:25:54,444 --> 01:25:55,903
I've got a fair idea.
1231
01:25:55,903 --> 01:25:59,407
You're the best intelligence analyst
I ever met.
1232
01:25:59,407 --> 01:26:01,660
And I'm the best administrator.
1233
01:26:01,660 --> 01:26:04,830
The new prime minister's coming in
with warm feelings towards
1234
01:26:04,830 --> 01:26:07,291
the intelligence services.
You've made sure of that.
1235
01:26:07,291 --> 01:26:10,378
Yes. After what I've done for her,
1236
01:26:10,378 --> 01:26:14,466
these are going to be golden years.
We get everything we want.
1237
01:26:18,596 --> 01:26:20,182
I'd like you to join me.
1238
01:26:23,894 --> 01:26:26,397
You're forgetting.
I've got other obligations.
1239
01:26:26,397 --> 01:26:27,690
People depend on me.
1240
01:26:27,690 --> 01:26:29,901
What sort of people?
My daughter.
1241
01:26:29,901 --> 01:26:33,071
I can promise, come back to work,
she won't be troubled again.
1242
01:26:33,071 --> 01:26:38,285
Rollo. Well, I'm sure we can bring
him back into the fucking fold.
1243
01:26:38,285 --> 01:26:39,995
And most important of all...
1244
01:26:39,995 --> 01:26:42,541
there's Margot.
1245
01:26:42,541 --> 01:26:44,000
Ah, yes, Margot.
1246
01:26:47,630 --> 01:26:50,174
Are you hugging that scotch
to yourself?
1247
01:27:02,230 --> 01:27:04,316
Hasn't worked out, has it, Johnny?
1248
01:27:04,316 --> 01:27:06,610
What makes you say that?
1249
01:27:06,610 --> 01:27:12,658
Oh, come on, I mean, give us some
credit, please. We are
professionals.
1250
01:27:12,658 --> 01:27:15,161
You love falling in love, don't you?
1251
01:27:15,161 --> 01:27:17,498
Just, not so good at being in it.
1252
01:27:21,085 --> 01:27:23,379
Come back to Millbank
1253
01:27:23,379 --> 01:27:26,800
and you're going to be able to
make her a very attractive offer.
1254
01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:28,259
What offer is that?
1255
01:27:29,552 --> 01:27:31,429
For the rest of her life,
1256
01:27:31,429 --> 01:27:35,727
she's going to be able to walk down
the street and not look behind her.
1257
01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:39,064
That's not nothing, Johnny.
1258
01:27:41,775 --> 01:27:43,986
I have a feeling
she's going to take it.
1259
01:27:43,986 --> 01:27:45,780
You don't know her.
1260
01:27:45,780 --> 01:27:48,533
Oh, I think I do.
1261
01:27:53,997 --> 01:27:56,500
I am going to keep
this statement brief.
1262
01:27:59,170 --> 01:28:03,509
I've always said I would leave
office at a time of my own choosing
1263
01:28:03,509 --> 01:28:06,762
and only when I had finished the job
I was elected to do.
1264
01:28:10,475 --> 01:28:12,018
This is that time.
1265
01:28:13,812 --> 01:28:16,607
I leave you strong
and I leave you secure.
1266
01:28:16,607 --> 01:28:18,609
CHEERING
1267
01:28:22,530 --> 01:28:26,035
Congratulations!
You just brought down a government.
1268
01:28:26,035 --> 01:28:31,040
Did I really? I know someone did
but I'm not sure who.
1269
01:28:45,015 --> 01:28:48,477
Any MP will tell you that the most
important people in their life
1270
01:28:48,477 --> 01:28:50,896
are the people who elect them.
1271
01:28:50,896 --> 01:28:54,192
Shall we go out and celebrate?
All right.
1272
01:28:54,192 --> 01:28:57,946
I'll finish the story,
then, yes, let's go and get drunk.
1273
01:29:04,788 --> 01:29:06,999
SHE EXHALES
1274
01:29:06,999 --> 01:29:09,209
DOOR OPENS
1275
01:29:18,553 --> 01:29:20,221
What are you doing?
1276
01:29:24,060 --> 01:29:25,937
I was going to leave you a note.
1277
01:29:25,937 --> 01:29:27,563
What kind of note?
1278
01:29:27,563 --> 01:29:28,856
A goodbye note.
1279
01:29:31,860 --> 01:29:33,195
You knew it was coming.
1280
01:29:35,907 --> 01:29:38,075
I feared it, but I didn't know.
1281
01:29:42,289 --> 01:29:45,209
Where's Julianne?
She's at the hospital.
1282
01:29:45,209 --> 01:29:47,545
What? It's all right.
She doesn't want you to go.
1283
01:29:47,545 --> 01:29:49,547
All right? Why is it all right?
1284
01:29:49,547 --> 01:29:53,135
Because her mother's with her.
It's going to be a long labour.
1285
01:29:53,135 --> 01:29:54,594
Can I call?
1286
01:29:54,594 --> 01:29:56,431
No. She's still angry.
1287
01:29:58,349 --> 01:30:00,394
She says you can call
in the morning.
1288
01:30:02,687 --> 01:30:04,773
OK.
1289
01:30:04,773 --> 01:30:06,233
Then I will.
1290
01:30:20,374 --> 01:30:23,295
And you? Where are you heading?
1291
01:30:23,295 --> 01:30:25,588
Oh. A start-up in Hong Kong.
1292
01:30:26,882 --> 01:30:29,009
Really? Yeah.
1293
01:30:29,009 --> 01:30:30,386
Well...
1294
01:30:30,386 --> 01:30:33,431
that's...that's a long way.
1295
01:30:34,683 --> 01:30:36,644
Yeah, well, I've been approached.
1296
01:30:37,937 --> 01:30:39,688
A guy I knew through Stirling.
1297
01:30:40,814 --> 01:30:43,818
He wants to sell clothes
on the internet.
1298
01:30:43,818 --> 01:30:45,445
He sees a gap in the market.
1299
01:30:45,445 --> 01:30:46,863
Does he have a lot of money?
1300
01:30:46,863 --> 01:30:50,743
Not a penny.
That's why he needs someone smart.
1301
01:30:50,743 --> 01:30:53,830
Margot, I made you a lot of promises
back in Turks & Caicos.
1302
01:30:53,830 --> 01:30:56,750
I want to keep them.
Say the word and I will.
1303
01:30:58,668 --> 01:31:01,922
I knew when it came down to it,
you'd always want to go back
to work.
1304
01:31:01,922 --> 01:31:05,217
What, I just walk away
from everything, do I?
1305
01:31:05,217 --> 01:31:08,138
Is that the right thing to do?
I don't think so.
1306
01:31:08,138 --> 01:31:11,224
These days, everyone feels
powerless, I understand that.
1307
01:31:11,224 --> 01:31:12,976
That's what they want you to feel.
1308
01:31:12,976 --> 01:31:15,355
But if we don't fight, who will?
1309
01:31:16,606 --> 01:31:18,566
Johnny, you know these people.
1310
01:31:18,566 --> 01:31:21,737
They slide around,
they have nothing solid.
1311
01:31:23,030 --> 01:31:26,200
For them, it's simply
one day to the next.
1312
01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:29,329
They believe what they have to
and then when the time comes,
1313
01:31:29,329 --> 01:31:31,790
they believe something else.
1314
01:31:31,790 --> 01:31:34,502
For them nothing is ever at stake.
1315
01:31:34,502 --> 01:31:37,004
Look, I know what you're saying,
but even so,
1316
01:31:37,004 --> 01:31:39,465
if it's what you want
I can get you back in.
1317
01:31:39,465 --> 01:31:42,386
I've watched you the last few
months. You're brilliant at it.
1318
01:31:42,386 --> 01:31:44,847
You love it. Yes.
1319
01:31:46,265 --> 01:31:47,809
But I love you more.
1320
01:31:58,654 --> 01:32:01,324
It was quite an adventure,
wasn't it?
1321
01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:06,413
Yes.
1322
01:32:07,665 --> 01:32:09,250
I wouldn't have missed it.
1323
01:32:10,626 --> 01:32:11,628
Me neither.
1324
01:32:14,506 --> 01:32:15,799
I wish we'd done more.
1325
01:32:17,468 --> 01:32:19,845
Oh, Johnny...
1326
01:32:19,845 --> 01:32:22,264
we did plenty.
1327
01:32:40,118 --> 01:32:43,832
I'm going in the morning.
Why don't you just leave?
1328
01:32:49,963 --> 01:32:51,923
I'll miss you.
1329
01:32:53,968 --> 01:32:57,139
Yes. I'll miss you too.
1330
