All language subtitles for Trigger Point S01E05

I'm nearly there.

Get down!
EXPLOSION

The HMX-319 comes from Porton Down,
but they couldn't tell me any more.

It's classified, Lana.

There's a single bombing campaign
run by one group, the Crusaders.

There's another member of the cell.
The bomb-maker.

They know call-out times,
how we think,

how we move, everything.

It's got to be an inside man.

SHOUTING

Jesus Christ.

I can't ignore your conduct. I think
you should take some personal leave.

We believe your brother is involved
with the Crusaders.

I'm sorry, sir,
are you sure you mean my Billy?

My mate asked me to give some
of the lads a lift down.

'Must be some kind of joke.'

They're not who you think they are.

Looks like a bomb.

Gonna go to Cranstead Fields, Billy.

Billy, I'm here.

It's about three minutes, yeah?
You've gotta get me out the car!

The timer, it means nothing.

Put it there as a trick,
so you open the door.

Lana, please, don't go.

You've gotta trust me.
Listen to me, I'm your sister.

Lana! Lana, do something!

'Suspect is unlocking door. Repeat.'

Billy!

Might be an idea for you
to move in here with me, you know.

So is that what we are, then? Mates?

You tell me.

PHONE RINGS

PHONE CONTINUES RINGING

All right?

It's a bit of a mess.

Hadn't really been getting much
response from my texts,

so I just thought I'd come over
and just make sure you're OK.

Sorry.

No.

Come here.

Look, why don't we just get you
some bags packed?

Get you over to mine,
get you moved in.

Means I can look after you...
properly.

Not now, Thom.
It's not the right time.

OK.

Have you, um,
heard any more about John?

We didn't find anything on him.

What?

It's just... That's impossible.

We've looked through
his entire comms history, Lana.

He's clean.

Then you need to look harder.
You must be missing something.

Like...

I don't get it.

Well, look,
I couldn't stay for long anyway,

so I should probably get back.

I'll just give you some space.

You all right?

No.

You know how it is.

I do.

I know us lot don't really
do talking, but...

..if you wanted to, I'm right here.

Or not. I'm happy just sitting here.

If Billy would have trusted me...
he'd have been OK.

How do you mean?

Well, we were...

We were close,
and then life got in the way.

My job got in the way.

But I know if we were still tight,
he would have listened to me.

I know he would.

It's all down to me. Everything.

I know how it feels,
to carry the guilt, you know.

Do you remember the first time
you stood in front of a device?

The sheer terror.

But now, after years and years
of training, nothing.

Autopilot. No nerves.

But that's just us, right?

Wasn't that your brother
didn't trust you.

He wouldn't have known what the fuck
was going on.

So don't beat yourself up over it.

You're a good EXPO,
and a great person,

and no-one could have done any more.

Who knows?

But... thank you for saying that.

You remind of Nut.

Wow.

Well, he was a great person.

Yeah, he was.

That's probably the nicest thing
anyone has ever said to me.

Not a lot of compliments
where I come from.

You know, I really think
we've got loads of stuff in common.

Things we've been through
and come out on the other side.

I really feel like you get me.

Don't know if I get myself.

I get you.

SHE SIGHS
I'm knackered.

Head off?

Yeah, of course.

What do you feel like doing?
Could watch a film or something.

What is it the kids say?
"Netflix and chill"?

Yeah, I think, um, I'm just gonna
go and be by myself for a bit,

if that's all right.

Yeah, of course.

MUSIC: 'Something In Your Eyes'
by Ed Case ft Shelley Nelson

# Moving aside the moves you make

# Waiting to see
Which heart you break

# Leaving me with nothing left
To hold

# What took you away?

# Was it something that she said?

# So what's this game you play?

# I'm the one you face

# I may still, may still
May still win the race

# Cos there's something
In your eyes. #

SHE HOWLS

CRYING

Thanks for this, Lana.
I know it can't be easy.

I want to help, Ma'am.

First thing to say is that
our initial findings

point to Billy being unaware
of the Farringdon VBIED plot.

A pressure plate
was rigged under his seat,

set to arm the door when he got up.

Billy's actions in driving away from
Farringdon helped save many lives.

We've been establishing a timeline
of Billy's movements

in the days leading up
to the incident,

using comms history and interviews.

We geo-located Billy
to an address in Streatham,

registered to a Thomas Marshall.

Yeah. Tommy was, er,
an old mate of Billy's.

We believe that Billy stayed
with Tommy until the morning

of the anti-fascist demo,

and then set off on public transport
to an address in Brixton,

spending approximately
one hour there

before heading north in his car.

This is when he tripped
the ANPR camera.

From then on, we have his movements.

We called your mobile phone
at 11:41am,

and you were at O'Hara's Pool Hall.
You didn't say who you were with.

Just some mates. Er, Danny and Mike.

Billy had been charged
with racially aggravated assault.

He was due
to stand trial next month.

Had he previously shown
any far-right inclinations?

No. Er, not like that.

He was... he was easily led.

Naive.

Did Billy ever mention
someone called Frank?

No.

We uncovered a number of messages
sent between Billy

and an individual named Frank
over the course of the last week

on an encrypted messaging service.

And from the nature of them,
we believe Frank is connected to,

or a member of, the Crusaders.

They groomed him.

When Forensics
were processing Billy's flat,

they found DNA matching
an individual on our system.

Frank Adrian Welsh.
Born Dagenham, 7th of June 1978.

Did time for armed robbery.

Released from prison
three years ago.

He's a former member
of English Flag.

We believe
he was amongst those members

expelled by Agatha Jack.

We've established a connection
between him and Nic Roberts.

In late 2019, Welsh and Roberts
both attended

the same rehabilitation group.

Welsh was in the Territorial Army
between 2005 to 2014.

His record shows
explosives training.

So he fits the profile

of the bomb-maker
that we've been looking for.

We agree.
This is the man we're after.

Ma'am?

Ma'am. Can I have a word, please?

I need to return to work.
I need it and you need it.

Lana, you've been exposed
to extreme trauma.

Notwithstanding my concern
for your welfare,

our protocols require
a set period off active duty.

Yeah, I get it, but this is not
the time to be one EXPO down.

And without blowing my own trumpet,

you brought me on
as senior for a reason.

It's not about your level
of experience, Lana.

After all you've been through,

we need to give you
all the support we can.

I'm ready.

And I was wrong about John,

but I need to do all I can
to get Frank Welsh.

I would want daily reports
after each job you're sent to,

and you'll need ongoing support
from occupational health.

It's not that we don't have
the utmost faith in your ability,

it's that we have
a duty of care to you.

Understood. Whatever it takes.

Um, before we begin, there's a short
questionnaire to fill in.

It's standard practice
for all new patients.

Cheers.

I see, from your case file,
that you've been on active service

since you left school.

For the last five years,
with the Met Police,

and before that, the Army.

Er, yeah. I served two tours
in Afghanistan, in EOD.

Thanks.
Thank you.

I see you've ticked "no"
to every question.

Yeah.

Mmm.

You're gonna have to trust me.

You're gonna have to be honest
about how you're feeling.

Do you discuss things
or share feelings

with your friends or colleagues?

Not really, no. We're focussed
on the job, and not...

..talking about our feelings.

When you're away from the job,
is it hard to switch off?

Yeah, it can be.

Mmm.

Which can be difficult for...

..the people around me,

um, my partner.

Nut used to say that, um,
EOD stood for Every One Divorced...

..which isn't far from the truth.

So how are you feeling right now?

My job is to keep people safe...

..and I haven't been able to.

Yeah.

There was a...

..gentleman called Ali Hussein,
who was a father and a husband.

I just...

..couldn't get to the device
in time.

My brother...

..and, um, Nut, my...

..number one, my friend.

And how does it feel,
carrying that responsibility?

I don't know how to answer that.

That's how we came to identify him.

Tracking down Frank Welsh
is our number-one priority.

Forget what's going on
in your lives.

This is the only thing
you should be thinking about.

I want unit cars outside
all his known addresses.

I want his friends and family
interviewed.

Someone knows something.
Let's get cracking.

I want results today.
Sir. Sir.

Hi.
Hey.

Um, well, it sounds like
the manhunt's in full swing.

You OK?
Can I help with anything?

Yes. Um...

Got a minute?

It's just that you said you'd been
playing pool with Danny and Mike.

Um...

It's just that I know,
from the duty log...

..they were both at HQ
at the time.

So...

..I don't understand.

Yeah, I was with someone else.

So what does that mean?
Does that mean, um...

Does that mean it's over between us?

I don't know.

I should get back.

Fucking hell.

'Here we are, a day away
from the by-election,

'and Agatha Jack and English Flag

'still haven't
produced a clear policy.

'Are they taking
their supporters for granted?

'Or is it the so-called
progressive alliance

'that's making your blood boil?'
All right?

'Tell us what you think.

'Join me, Simon Shenley,
after the latest travel news.'

This guy is so biased.

Here,
why are we even listening to this?

What happened
to that old dad-rock channel,

whatever we were listening to?
Dad rock?

APPLAUSE

Thanks, guys.

Welcome to the show,
a special edition

coming from
the University of South London.

We're here to discuss
the upcoming by-election.

By-elections in marginal seats
are always a big news story,

but this one
is particularly significant,

coming at a time when London
is facing a critical threat level.

So who's most likely to win?

We will discuss that,
as well as the progressive alliance

between the left-leaning candidates.

'If you're just tuning
into this story,

'it's a deal that has been struck

'between the Lib Dems, Greens
and Labour

'in a bid to funnel voters...'

Hey.
All right, stranger? All right?

Turn that down, Danny.
Gladly.

Right, listen up.
I've been briefed by HQ.

We've got a name for the bomber.
It's Frank Welsh.

Now, he's a devious shit.
He doesn't care who he hits,

whether it's police or civilians.

We know he likes secondaries,
so we need to watch out for that.

We also know he likes a tilt switch,
so don't even think about

moving anything until
it's been cleared.

He's trying to have
a little bit of fun with the EXPO,

get in our heads,
waiting for us to make a mistake.

Piece of work.

Yeah. So, I need you all
to be on top of your game.

I'm not losing anyone else.

Mate. I'm so sorry.

It's good to see you back.

That the device
from Cranstead Fields?

Yeah.

I managed to build
this reconstruction.

The timer was definitely a dummy.
I'm so sorry.

Oh, before I forget.

I've been wanting to give you these.

Forensics Unit Two
bagged them up at Westhaven,

but not processed them.

You know how it gets
after a big sweep.

Lost in the evidence locker.

Nut's snips.

Thanks.

Look, I, um...

I double checked with
Porton Down about the HMX we found.

A guy owes me a favour at the lab.

He was able to copy across

the file data associated
with the batch.

Porton Down have said the files
on HMX-319 are classified,

but look at this.

I don't know what you're showing me.
There's nothing there. It's empty.

Just numbers. 661142.

Yeah, exactly. That's it.
That was all that was in the file.

It's been wiped clean. Perhaps...

Perhaps this is standard protocol
to manage sensitive historic files.

I... I don't know.

From the export code,
I know it was produced for licence

in Afghanistan, if that's any help.

So, this is either
routine housekeeping or...

They're trying to cover
their tracks.

PHONE RINGS

DI Desai.

Received.

Security alert
at South London University.

Shit.

SIREN BLARES

'Evacuation in progress
at the University of South London.

'A suspect package has been found
during the transmission

'of a radio talk show.
All units to university.'

EXPO Two, received.

At 2:05pm,
a member of the security team

noticed a suspicious item,
which was hidden amongst

the recording equipment brought
in for broadcast.

They checked their CCTV

and a man can be seen
moving equipment,

who isn't one of their staff.

So we went through all the IDs
that were shown at the entry

and we came up with this fake one.

It's Welsh.

The talk show panel have gone
to a safe location

in case they were
his intended target.

We've blocked all roads
within a one-mile radius,

but he could be in the vicinity
and he could be armed.

Let's keep our eyes open. OK?

Understood.

OK, listen up.

Frank Welsh is confirmed
as the subject of interest.

You've all been briefed
on his appearance.

Secure your positions.

Yes, sir.

Trojan Four One, in position.

Trojan Five Four, in position.

Yo.
All right?

Yeah.

Right, keep your eyes peeled
while we're inside.

It'll be radio silence
while we're in there.

OK.

John, you're with me.

All right.
Do you want me to hold your hand?

Show you how to do it proper?

Give me the vest.

CLAMOUR, SIRENS

Lana.
Yeah.

You all right?
Yeah.

You got this. OK?
Bring it in. All right?

Cheers. John, let's go.

'You were telling me about
how you fight the urge to run.'

I make it personal.

'What scares us is the unknown,

'so you have to try and get
inside the bomber's head.

'Why have they put
that device there?

'Are they playing mind games?

'Is this what it looks like,
or is there something more complex?

'That's where my focus is,
that's how I shut out the fear.'

The device is up ahead.

Yeah, I know.

Well, come on, then.

'It's me and the device.

'Me and the bomber.'

Me versus him.

BEEPING

BEEPING HASTENS

All right, Wash?
Yeah, just give me a minute.

I, er... I've been meaning to say,
Wash.

I'm sorry about your Billy.
He was a good kid.

What the fuck? Not now, yeah, John?

Can't say anything, can I,
without you biting my head off?

Central Seven Four,
keep all crowd back.

Repeat, all crowd back.

Any visuals on suspect?

Trojan One, negative.

Trojan Three Six, negative here too.

Here, mate.

Ta.

It's not poisoned.

Right, we've got a mobile phone
and a timer, but it's just blinking.

Yeah, decoy timer.
Remote detonation.

Like you say,
this fucker likes to mess with us.

There's no rush, Wash.

Yeah, got all day, haven't we?
Right, get back.

Trojan Five Four.
Still no obs on Welsh.

Shit. Two phones.
One to prime, one to trigger.

Right, can you go and speak
to DI Youngblood?

Tell him to look out
for any suspects

that might be carrying
two mobile phones.

No.

You go. I'll stay.

No, you go. I'm gonna set up
the pigstick to disrupt.

EXPO Seven. We've located IEDs,
a mobile phone initiating device.

Two mobiles attached, one to prime,
one to trigger.

Central Seven Four, received.

OK, eyeballs on anyone
with two mobile phones.

Everyone's got
their bloody phone out.

Damn.

Hang on.

Trojan Five Four,
I have a visual on a suspect.

He's carrying two mobile phones.

PHONE RINGS
Shit.

The device is armed.

PHONE CONTINUES RINGING

Pigstick's in place, but I've got to
complete the circuit.

Right, I'll set up.
Yeah, go, go, go.

EXPO Seven. Device is armed.
Repeat, device is armed.

Where are you?

Got you. Trojan Five Four, I have
a good visual again on the suspect.

'He's looking at the building,
two phones in play.'

Trojan One, received. Is it Welsh?

Trojan Five Four,
positive ID Frank Welsh.

I'm taking the shot.

Trojan Five Four, suspect down.

Trojan One received. EMT required.

Trojan One to EXPO Seven.

We've taken down Frank Welsh.

He was carrying two phones.
Now inactive.

EXPO Seven, received.

Wash. Yeah.
Suspect's down.

Is it Welsh?
They think so.

OK, good.
I'm gonna disrupt any minute now.

Right. All the pressure's off.

EXPO Seven, we're about to disrupt.

PHONE PINGS

PHONE RINGS

Shit!

Hard cover!

Get down! Take cover!

Come on! Come on, come on!

SCREAMING

We have eyewitness reports
of John Hudson

fleeing the scene
seconds before the blast.

Mobile data confirms
that he used his mobile

in the seconds before the device
at the University of South London

was triggered.

Frank Welsh was the caller
to the primer phone.

When he was killed,
Hudson took over.

In the last hour, we've been able
to make a positive match

between his phone
and the trigger phone on the device.

We've now established
that the explosive used

at the university attack
was the same mix

as that in the device at Westhaven,
Amburiq and the Five Oaks.

More explosive has been discovered

at a property
belonging to John Hudson.

It's undergoing analysis.

'From the Security Service
point of view,

'John Hudson is not a name
we've previously encountered.

'Had he been under investigation?'

John Hudson
had been under surveillance,

and he fits our working profile.

However, until now, we had
no evidence of his involvement.

OK. We now have a potential
suspect to track down. John Hudson.

Member of the Met EXPO team,
a highly trained military veteran.

It is imperative that we locate
and detain him as soon as possible.

OK, everyone. Let's get to work.

What are you doing here?

Er, last time I saw you,
the way we left things,

I was out of order
assuming you'd come back with me

or I'd come to yours.
I don't want you to think that.

I'm not trying to pressure you.

I didn't think that.

Honestly, it's fine.

Look, I've just come back
to pick some stuff up.

I've got to go back to work.

I know you're so used to doing

all the tough things in life
by yourself. I get it.

But I can help.

We're the same.
You just need to let me in.

I feel, for the first time,

I've met someone
who can make sense of my life,

and I want you to give me the chance
to do the same for you.

That's really kind, Karl.
Honestly, I really appreciate it.

It's just my head
is all over the shop at the minute.

Yeah.

I know you're going through so much,
but I just wanted to say my piece.

Thanks.

See you later.
See ya.

Hey.
Hi.

John Hudson's place.
Bagged and tagged.

I just don't understand
how an EXPO could do this.

We all know the damage IEDs do,
the lives that are lost.

The whole purpose of our job,
of our existence,

is to stop this from happening.
How does somebody's head flip?

He even lied to my face about Billy,
about being sorry,

about Billy.
I know, Wash, I...

Yeah, thanks.

DI Youngblood, I was, um...
I was just about to explain to Wash

that the chemical explosive
found at John Hudson's place

was an exact match of the HMX-319

that was used
in the Crusader devices.

Also,
despite the device functioning,

some parts I was able
to study in-depth and I found this

in the interior of the device.

Yeah, 1-9-1-2.

You saw something similar
written on the wall at Westhaven?

Yeah.

It's a message. Someone's trying
to tell us something.

This the A-Z he used?

Yeah. I've got a scan somewhere.

Look, Lana, um, about John.

Sorry I doubted you.

No. Not as sorry
as I am that I was right.

These are all the pages that he'd
written on, made notes and so on.

Synagogues, mosques, gay pubs.

Five Oaks pub, Amburiq Mosque.

He was thorough.

On the Amburiq Mosque page,
there's something else marked.

I didn't see that before.

Hey. Er, yeah, I need
a background check on an address.

Caredale Road, SE1.

I don't recognise that.
It sounds residential.

OK, listen to me.
Get a hold of the Labour candidate

and their security.
Tell them we're on our way.

It's the progressive alliance
campaign headquarters.

Miss Campbell-Khan?
What's going on?

We've had intelligence
of a potential attack.

We just need to make sure
the office is secure.

Um, would anyone know
your timetable?

Sure, I post regular updates
on social media.

I mean,
that's half the job these days.

Yeah, no, I understand.
Um, if you could just...

It's just a safety precaution.
It'll be temporary. Thank you.

Thanks.
Thank you very much. Thank you.

Lana.

We've been running plate checks
on all vehicles

to ensure they're registered
to residents or visitors,

and we've been alerted to one
that appears to be

a long-term parking violation.
Come, follow me.

We've cleared the rest
of the street. Nice one.

POLICE RADIO CHAT

Excuse me, whose is that car?
Do you know whose this car is?

Officer, I'll take over from here.

You need to take that off
and put it down.

I'm a council contractor.
Take it off and put it down.

Have you got any ID?

Come on.

Step away.
What's going on?

Step away, please, sir.

What's happening? There's no
council logo on this clamp.

Er, OK, I'll check it out.
Did you put this clamp on?No.

Who did you speak to?
Someone from the council.

Someone you know?
No.

Hey, I need to check to see
if the council ordered a car removal

on Caredale Road.
Step away from the vehicle, sir.

What's she doing?

Can you step away from the vehicle,
please.

Caredale, Charlie,
Alpha, Romeo, Echo. Yeah.

Sir, please, move away.
I've asked you. Please. Thank you.

Officer,
please escort this driver away.

There's an open gas cover
under the boot.

I also need to check
on any gas works in the area.

The council didn't order
any car removal.

It didn't clamp the car.
Right, they want this car moved.

This is a set-up. Shit.

Central Seven Four to all units.

We need to immediately evacuate
the area

and set up a 100-metre cordon
around a suspected VBIED

on Caredale Road.

Control received,
Central Seven Four.

SIREN BLARES

You all right?
Yeah.

Shall we send in the robot?

No. John will know
that we're gonna open the boot. Ta.

What about the optic cable?
Yeah, good idea.

Cool. Let's suit up, then.

We good?
Yeah, good.

Yeah. Slowly does it.
Yeah.

It's a tilt switch.

Yeah. He wanted us to tow the car
to lift the tilt.

Keep going round.

Trying to see what it's attached to.

Bollocks. It's an EFP.
Shit.

Danny's told us about the device.

It's an EFP -
an Explosively Formed Projectile.

Yeah, there's no gas work scheduled.
So what are you thinking?

Well,
there's a tilt switch attached,

so when the car is lifted
onto the ramp,

it sets off the charge -
in this case,

it's one that fires a projectile.

It's strong enough
to go straight through the boot

and in to the gas pipes.
So it's a gas bomb.

Hudson is trying to create
an underground explosion?

No, because that's not possible.
The gas needs oxygen

to become an explosion.

There's some more complex plan
in place.

Well, the staff at the campaign HQ,

they were told that the gas pipes
were faulty,

filled with water and dirt.
Sir, we've been door-to-door.

Most of the residents on this street
have had a gas engineer inside,

changing the meter.

Right, OK,
so this is gonna be John.

Why has he been in every house,
changing the meters?

Er, Central Eight Five to Control.

We need to evacuate all the roads
surrounding Caredale Road.

Widen the cordon to 500 metres.
Please arrange a bronze evacuation.

Could affect thousands of residents.

I'll oversee the evacuation.
I'll get Hamilton

to tell the gas board
to turn off the gas.

I need EXPO support.

I need to get in
to all these buildings

and check the gas meters.

I'll start
with the campaign headquarters.

Fine.

Let's go.

Shit.

Tilt switch.

Shit.

He's gonna release the gas.

This is EXPO Two.

It looks like he's set up
a gas explosion

in every building on the street.
I need EXPO support now.
