All language subtitles for The Capture s02e06 The Flip.eng

Correction is a method of real-time
image manipulation using the

deployment of deep fake technology.
They kill people to protect it.

It's Yvonne, isn't it?
If there's anything I can do.

You can get the bastard who did it.

Thanks to the intervention
of our US partners,

Operation Vanguard is secure.

I stopped by the Commissioner's
office this morning,

handed in my 728.

You're resigning?
Don't worry, Gemma.

I didn't give the real reason.

Isaac, the deal is still intact.

What deal?

Somebody got to you, didn't they?

And with power, you can do all the
good you ever dreamt of.

I was with Isaac Turner.
He doesn't trust us.

And that is your fault.
Lower your tone.

I don't let anyone raise their voice
at me off camera.

What am I looking at?

Stage 4 stomach cancer.

Hello?
I need you to do something for me.

Look in the bathroom.

There's a laptop.

Gregory Knox, I am arresting you
for obstructing a police officer.

What are you saying?

You in?

Yes.

OVER COMMS: Shots fired.
Threat neutralised.

Target down. Repeat. Target down.

Everything's falling perfectly
into place.

You think a person can change?

You told us you could change.

My British chums went for it.

As for you, fast track.

Hello?
Sorry for the unsociable hour.

The empire's struck back.

Gill, the Home Sec
that just won't die.

We need to regroup. Respond.

The car's on its way.

Erm... OK.

I mean, you heard the recording,
right?

I have got him admitting he
colluded with Aliza to obstruct

Victoria Bello's application.

And for that,
I salute you, Isaac.

But that alone is not a strategy.

It's time to launch
Operation Kill Gill.

I'll bring pastries. Any allergies?

Any...?

No. Erm...

...Gregory, is...is this safe?

I mean, us talking on the phone
like this.

So long as it's me you're talking
to, Isaac, you're safe.

LINE GOES DEAD

SHE BREATHES RAGGEDLY

SHE GASPS

Face the camera.

Read the highlighted paragraph.

SHE BREATHES HEAVILY

Aloud.

QUIETLY: I... Rachel Carey...

...understand...
Oh, Colonel Kurtz. I said aloud.

LOUDER: I, Rachel Carey,

understand that I am currently
within the legal jurisdiction

of the United States of America.

Whilst I remain
within the legal jurisdiction

of the United States of America,

I am bound by the rules, regulations

and limitations of US federal law.

Strange -
expecting others to obey your laws

while you break
every last one of ours.

Settle down, wildcat.

You've already got one battle scar.

Why did you withhold this critical
piece of intelligence?

Russian state assassin
captured on camera.

You didn't share it?
I'm not talking without a lawyer.

You're not under arrest.

Garland, then.

Beg your pardon?

I want DSU Gemma Garland
present at my interrogation.

I'm guessing she's in on this, too.

Right?

Sorry, kiddo.

Momma's not home.

Why don't you tell me exactly
how you got a hold of this image.

I'd like to ask you the same thing.

I'd like to put a soaking cloth
over your face between questions.

But... I'm exercising restraint.

Gregory Knox shared this with you,
didn't he?

I strongly suggest
you exercise some yourself.

But you already knew who the man
behind the mask was.

Nikolai Mirsky,
if that's his name.

Remember when we talked
about change?

He's not a Russian national, is he?
Now would be a good time to start.

I'm going to say he worked for you

until he became a liability,

and you had his partner
blow his brains out.

I mean... I try to do the right
thing.

I don't know what you're plotting
with Gregory Knox,

but I do hope it's worth it.
And for what? A lot of people seem

to be dying in the process.
An entitled fast-track princess...

Edison Yao. Joseph Mwangi.
..yap-yap-yapping... Jason McKenna.

...in my ear... Lee Bradbury.
..doesn't know when...

Patrick Flynn.
..to shut the fuck up!

Your boy had shitty luck.

Saw something he shouldn't.

It happens.

But you, on the other hand - nah,
you got all the luck in the world,

don't you?

Wearing a wire,
catching my boy on camera.

You should be lying in the morgue
right next to him.

You would be, too, if it wasn't
for your fucking guardian angels.

SHE GASPS

SHE CHOKES AND COUGHS

Operation Kill Gill, phase two.

We need to put Isaac Turner in
front of his biggest audience yet.

Take down the Home Secretary
with the whole country watching.

Every public denial
this do of us makes,

the story grows bigger.

Meanwhile, Isaac Turner is simply
trying to get on

with his important new schedule -

promoting business schemes, opening
war memorials. Sports initiatives?

Yes.

But those pesky reporters
won't stop badgering him

about Rowan Gill.

In the public interest, you agree
to an exclusive interview.

Look, I... I don't want, you know,
to seem like I'm out for revenge.

I knew you'd get it.

Approximately one hour ago,

I was present at a briefing
with Home Secretary Rowan Gill,

who I learned has full knowledge

of Correction and its use
within the UK.

Also present was Commander Hart
and DSU Garland.

It appears somebody recently tried
to wipe it all from your computer.

The laptop hidden in your bathroom?

But hadn't quite managed to
delete it from the deleted folder.

Rookie mistake. Fucking Abigail.

I must say,
I found it rather sweet...

...your little journal.

Not quite Edward Snowden.
More... Adrian Mole.

And then I reminded myself
that naivety and treachery

are not mutually exclusive.

Who else is involved...

...in your plot?

Guv. Yeah.

I think the SO-15 contingent
is seriously overdue a briefing.

I sent three armed units off to
the suspect vehicle last night.

Ten minutes later, we get "shots
fired" over comms and "target down".

And? Between all three units,

not one firearms officer
claimed the kill.

You're questioning the comms
traffic? I'm questioning everything,

after recent events.

Did we take down a suspect? Yes.

Is there a body? There usually is
when someone's killed.

There was a lot of confusion
in the vicinity, by all accounts.

There was a lot of confusion
in the control room, guv.

Disappearing vehicles -
sound familiar?

A major event in Operation Vanguard

and not one of us had eyes on.

A bit of reassurance
wouldn't go amiss

from someone we can trust.

VIDEO: Welcome to the nightmare
that is Correction, Isaac.

Our enemies fake things
which we can't deny.

There's a lot of information
on this video file,

and I don't mean
from Rowan Gill.

The resolution suggests the type of
camera used more by journalists

than police.

So I ask you again...

...who else is involved?

Khadija Khan?

It's over, Rachel.

We have everything from your first
transgression to your most recent.

Not forgetting...

...this little gem.

VIDEO: Patrick wasn't meant
to be a target, though, was he?

After everything we've done for
you, this is how you repay us.

And it wouldn't be
the first time

you failed to stop it!
That is enough!

Hannah Roberts was an enemy
of the British state.

VIDEO STOPS

What did you expect?

You monitor me in my home.

I beg your pardon? Cameras in every
room, watching me day and night.

Naturally, I can neither

confirm or deny any such operation.
In my bedroom!

If you were under surveillance...
Watching me in bed!

...it's turned out to be
entirely justified. I can't sleep!

You secretly recorded British
intelligence. I needed insurance!

Oh!

What a crushing disappointment
you are, Rachel.

After all the chances
you've been given.

You kept me in the dark from the
moment I joined the department,

banishing me to Mapping...

What is it about your generation...
..keeping me under surveillance.

...that causes you to melt at the
denial of instant gratification?

You were serving a penance. You were
supposed to be earning our trust.

I was impressed with you.

You saw this was
all Frank Napier's doing.

Before me.

Before any of us.

You even managed to get the man
to blurt out his culpability

right in front of you,

even if it did mean
nearly getting your throat slit.

You're not bad, Rachel.

You've got the capacity
for the work, all right.

And you want to squander it all...

...so you can be
some whistle-blower?

And then what?

Go into hiding, take refuge
in Russia for the rest of your life?

There were opportunities for you.

Still would be.

I mean, if I felt for a second
I could trust you.

What does that mean?

Danny Hart's handed in his notice.

SO-15 will need a new commander.

The new commander of SO-15...

...me?

No. What?

Me.

Oh.

But if I were to step
into Danny Hart's shoes,

I'd need someone
to step into mine.

You expect me to believe,
after all this,

you'd want me on your team?

I should have known
you'd fail to understand.

Well, forgive me, but I like my work
a little less tainted

with murder and corruption.

Perhaps you're concussed.

You, Frank Napier, Gregory Knox -

I'm guessing you're all
in on this together.

Gregory Knox

is a scourge on human society.

He's everything that's wrong
with power, politics and technology

in the world today.

Then why are you protecting him?

You told me that I would see
Correction used as a force for good.

I've seen it used to help
people like Napier and Knox.

I was as appalled as you to discover
Frank was involved in this.

But there's a difference
between the aims of an operation

and the running of it.

Whatever it is, it makes
you complicit in the murders

of five innocent people...

I would never sanction the killing
of a British national.

...complicit in the cover-up...

The two things are not the same!

Explain the difference to a judge.

You really want to know?

My intervention into this shit storm

prevented British killings -
specifically...

...yours.

Don't do it!

Everything all right?

You don't seem on the precipice
of a new dawn.

You have it?

Needs a code. And you shall have it
upon completion of your work.

Brains on your flooring
is not complete enough for you?

That isn't funny, Frank.
I've had nightmares.

I thought you were coming
to deal with her,

not settle your internal affairs in
my corridor. They're cleaning it up!

I've got journos sniffing
around the building,

and not the kind I like.

Rumours of another
armed attack in London.

The story needs wrapping up.

No loose threads.

Well...

Again, I wouldn't expect you
to understand.

Consider this the sort of thing
you might learn from me

if you could bear to give me
your trust, instead of constantly

trying to betray me.

When the police uncover
a conspiracy, they make arrests.

A spy...

...flips it.

Keeps it running to their advantage.

I confirmed Frank Napier's
involvement in this

not 36 hours ago...

...when he came to me
in a sharing mood.

His gunmen were outside your flat,

waiting for his order.

You caught one of them on camera,

of course you were going to be next
on Frank Napier's kill list.

Until you stopped him.

Until I persuaded him

to let me take the reins.

How did...?

Let's just say I mediated
a crisis of moral leadership.

So...

...I'm sorry if you disapprove
of my joining the operation.

But if I hadn't...

The door to this opportunity
will not stay open long, Rachel.

I suggest you take advantage
before it shuts.

Give me everything you have

on Correction,

tell me who you're working with...

...and we'll find a way to move on.

And if I don't?

SHE SIGHS

Oh, dear, oh, dear.

I thought you might ask that.

Phillips.

I'd brace yourself for this,
if I were you.

Simone Turner is at Security.
Why?

Isaac's not here.
She's asking for you.

OK.

GARLAND: I wonder if you'd be quite
so determined to fight Correction

if you saw what it was capable of.

I, Rachel Carey, am currently
within the legal jurisdiction

of the Russian Federation.

I have been offered safe
harbour by the Russian state

and I have accepted.

Make that "safe harbour
and protection".

I have been offered safe harbour
and protection by the Russian state

and I have accepted.

"Gratefully accepted"?

Sounds good to me.

VIDEO: And I have
gratefully accepted.

This is the program
used on Isaac Turner.

I forgot to mention the other perk
of joining the operation.

I have control of the kit.

Do you feel guilty
for your betrayal, DCI Carey?

TYPING

I do.

I deeply, deeply regret
what I've done.

You can't win, Rachel.

Surely you can see that.

Have you read the Home Office
whistle-blower's claims, Mr Turner?

You know, Ralph, today's meant to
be about these young people

trying to achieve their goals.

CHEERING

OK, fine people of the press,

if you'd care to decamp
to the hospitality suite,

Mr Turner will join presently

to answer any related questions
you have.

Let's keep them related, please.

All righty.

Hi, darling.

Are you OK?

What are you...?

Wait. How... How did you
even know I'd be here?

You've been tweeting about it
all morning.

What's up?

I went to see Aliza.

Aliza? Why did you do that?

I thought I might get somewhere.

Somewhere with...?

The question no-one seems
inclined to answer.

We good?

Erm, just a second.

If Victoria Bello was lying,
why was her application obstructed

by the Home Office?

Oh, right. You know, I've actually
been looking into that.

I managed to collar
the Home Secretary about it.

You can stop, Isaac. Aliza obviously
knows you better than I do.

It seems the whole
of Westminster does.

Simmy...
Why did they assume it was true?

Erm... probably because they judge me

by the same pathetically low
standards as the rest of them.

The Palace of Westminster

is basically a midlife crisis
support centre.

"I was away from home." Go on.

You know, "I was away from home.
It was an emotional time. She's..."

She's a good-looking girl.

Yes, I suppose. Woman.

You were in a mood with me.

I was in a mood...?

It was my mother's funeral.

Yes, I was upset.
- I needed support.

And Victoria Bello gave you some.

No.

Swear on the children.

Swe...? What?

I need to shake
this lingering doubt, Isaac.

You know, I am in the middle
of a press conference.

Swear on the children
none of it's true.

Uh...

OK. OK.

Erm... I swear.

I swear...

...on the children, on us,
on everything I hold dear...

...Victoria Bello's claim was false.

Her son's not mine.

Obviously.

You... didn't submit a sample,
did you?

For the paternity test?

It's a simple question, Isaac.

Did you submit
a sample of your DNA?

No.

So, they faked the result on TV,
like you said they would?

No. The result was negative.

A fake result
would have been positive.

So... it's only fake
if you disagree with it?

I'm not the father of that kid,
Simone. Everyone knows that.

Everyone knows it
because it's on the news. Yes.

You told me not to trust the news.

How are we doing, guys? OK.

You... You can trust the news,
Simone.

Why would you say I couldn't?

I... I was confused.

Confused? Need another minute?

What about those
racial profiling comments?

OK...

What about them?
Were you confused then?

Erm... yes.

Confused when you made them,

or confused when you told me
you didn't make them?

Jesus, Isaac! Do you even know?

The confusion is pretty
non-fucking-stop, Simone.

But now... now... things are good.

Things are going our way. So you
don't need to keep asking questions

and picking everything apart.

Oh, but I do, Isaac, because
I need to get to the truth.

And right now,
I'm nowhere fucking near it!

How do I know nothing happened
between you and that woman?

Because you just heard me
swear it on our kids' lives!

But that's... that's not quite what
you said, though, is it?

You thought I wouldn't notice.

Oh, my. You have lost me.

Do you think I'm stupid?

No. I've been around
politicians too long.

OK, what did I say, then? You said
Victoria Bello's claim was untrue.

Yes. And that her son's not yours.
Which he isn't.

But you didn't say nothing happened.

How do you know her son's
not yours, Isaac?

If there's no paternity test.

Is it because you didn't fuck
her or because you used protection?

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
Erm... Isaac.

Just fucking wait! No, it's OK.

I came for the truth, I think I've
seen it. Listen... You know...

You know condoms aren't 100%.

Do you realise that?

Isaac Turner and I discovered
a shared interest in exposing

Correction, an interest the MP
no longer appears to share.

Khadija Khan became aware of
Correction

after the hack on the studio.

Because you enlightened her.

I saw an ally in blowing
the whistle, yes.

Does Khan have your dossier?

No, sir.

I was concerned she'd broadcast
before I gained enough evidence.

I decided not to share it.

She knows about Correction.

I mean... What?

All Khadija Khan seems
to care about is Khadija Khan,

getting her claws into the next
exclusive.

She knew that interview
with Victoria Bello

would mean losing Isaac's trust.
She couldn't help herself.

Isaac Turner doesn't trust Khan?

Erm... there's something else,
ma'am.

You'll find copies of all the files
in my dossier on SD cards hidden

beneath the radio in my car.

PHONE RINGS

Jen. Anthony.

I'm calling for a favour.

Right. Well, you know me.

You're retiring, I hear.

Spend more time with the family,

or can't take any more guilt?

We need you to provide a statement.

About the dossier.

About Vanguard.

As sole witness to
last night's events,

your testimony is critical.

You were following up on a routine
inquiry in the offices

of Truro Analytics when you became
aware of intruders in the building.

Your priority then became the safety
of their assumed target -

Mr Gregory Knox.

Shortly after securing Mr Knox
in his office, armed support arrived

to neutralise the threat.
Due to their ongoing deployment

on covert operations,

the identities of the armed officers
will be redacted from your report.

However, you can confirm
the identity of the man fatally

wounded at the scene...

...as that of Nikolai Mirsky...

...a Russian national and the prime
suspect in the murders

of Edison Yao and Joseph Mwangi,

Jason McKenna, Lee Bradbury...

...and Patrick Flynn.

Surprised you didn't just fake
the signature.

You're not concerned about
the fallout from Moscow?

Moscow will deny it,

but they won't disprove it.

I prefer it that way...

...no-one knowing what to believe.

Sir, I understand that you are
asking me to comply with a

false-flag op to protect Frank
Napier and Gregory Knox. I just...

I'd just like to know why.

You hear that prick? Hands me the
drive,

tells me I've got to wait
for the code.

Yes, I can believe it.

Get me into this.

Knox is the prick.

You're kind of hard to get rid of,
aren't you?

Like a stubborn turd -
just won't flush.

Why don't you brief Rachel
on the contents of that drive?

Is that an order?

Yeah.

Greg Knox may be a piece of shit,
but he crunches data for every big

tech company that matters.
Know how long we've been trying

to make a deal with somebody
like that?

What kind of deal?

I helped him play puppet master
to his politician.

For that, he gave me the secret
weapon -

Truro's algorithm.

Access to almost 3 billion
social media accounts worldwide.

So you can track the activity
of just about anyone?

Not track - predict.

The algorithm calculates behaviour
right down to how suggestible a guy

is to changing his toothpaste
or who he's going to vote for.

You can also predict how prone he
is to dissent.

Anyone from Bangkok to Mexico City
to Portland, Oregon

even thinks about subversion,
we'll know about it.

Not if we can't access the drive,
we won't.

What am I looking at?

Well, you're looking at it -
I just can't transfer it.

You mean you can get into the BBC
but you can't hack into this?

This has AES 256-bit cipher.

I can hack it,
if you want to lose data.

Why won't Knox give you the code?

He's not happy with the work...

...carnage...

...the trail of bodies.

He's concerned it might all
lead back to him, right?

Right.

He'll give me the code -

when everybody is looking
the other way.

East.

Good work, Rachel.

A landmark move for global
security, if not democracy.

Have you forgotten already?

What did I teach you about flipping
an operation to our advantage?

The room's yours, Todd.

Rachel and I are stepping
out for a while.

Where are we going, ma'am?

You heard Frank. Gregory Knox
is trying to plant a politician

who answers to big tech.

We are going to stop him.

Can I get a very weak Earl Grey
with lots of milk?

How's the all-seeing Al, Gregory?

The great and powerful program me.

Is there a problem?

Erm... a slight problem, yes.

It seems I've hit a slight bump
in the road

that your algorithm
failed to predict.

Simone says she's going to fucking
leave me. Already?

Al...? What?

Ah, right.

HE SIGHS Wow,

You... You don't seem too alarmed.

I can't imagine your algorithm's
going to love my chances of success

if I end up getting divorced.

You can never second guess
that thing. So what?

We might not have a problem
if someone does, in fact, leave me?

Not necessarily.

You knew? Hmm?

You knew. You knew.

You knew dragging Victoria Bello
out the woodwork

would destroy my marriage.
No, I knew it... it might.

It...? What the fuck?

Isaac, you told us when we first
met you wanted to get to the top.

Not if it meant losing my family.

You didn't stipulate that.
Are you insane?

I'm sorry, Isaac, but the program
just doesn't see you with Simone.

A significant percentage
of the electorate perceives

your marriage as somewhat strategic
and they don't like it.

Do you really think it's the first
time I've heard that -

that I married
Simone to climb the ladder?

I've had it thrown at me
for 13 years.

So if you really think
I'm going to give in to it now,

you and your algorithm can both
go fuck yourselves.

It's bullshit. It's what people
think.

Then why don't you change
what they think?

I thought that was your job.
My job is to get you into power.

Your job is to change the world
when you get there.

Ah, gentlemen.

Guess which swinging dick
of broadcasting

I've just got off the phone to -
Anthony Reed OBE.

He's offering an exclusive interview
- Thursday night, 8pm, BBC One.

Shall we pencil it?

DOOR OPENS

DOOR CLOSES

What about the boy?

The boy?

Amandi.

Victoria's son?

Seeing as you seem to know so much,
I thought you might oblige me.

What about?

Is he...?

Yours?

Heavens, I have no idea.

There are some details,
Isaac, even I'm not privy to.

Weak Earl Grey with
lots of milk. Ah, perfect.

Erm, are we...?

Meeting Khadija Khan.

If you're hoping to flip
Khadija, ma'am,

I'm the wrong person to take with
you.

We didn't end on good terms.
I know.

I deployed someone to keep
track of your movements

while Vanguard was down.

I imagine this is going to be pretty
awkward for you, huh?

I find myself with a problem.

Some highly classified intelligence
has recently been disclosed to you.

I trust DCI Carey's presence leaves
you in no doubt

as to what
intelligence I am referring.

As DCI Carey will confirm,

this serious breach coincided with
a period of personal difficulty

for the detective, which she now

recognises impacted negatively
on her mental health and well being,

in particular her behaviour
in the workplace.

Forgive me if I'm speaking
out of turn.

No. I can confirm all of that.

It explains the public outburst.

Last person who yelled at me like
that's now editing the One Show.

So, I realise I need something
solid on the table

if I'm to earn your cooperation.

The service has long enjoyed
a mutually beneficial relationship

with one trusted individual
inside this organisation.

The incumbent isn't getting
any younger.

Anthony Reed?

He's a fucking spook?

In some ways, you're better
informed than him already,

and I'll wager we can agree
on one operational goal

in the immediate term.

Sorry, are you tapping me up?

There's no official contract,
no financial agreement.

Your reward will be doing your bit
for national security

and in the bountiful source
of information that will become

available to you from the all-seeing
eye of British intelligence -

directly and exclusively...

...to you.

What operational goal?

Today brings to an end a highly
sophisticated campaign of targeted

gun violence that has gripped
counter-terrorism

command for six long days.

A devastating campaign
that has claimed the lives

of five innocent victims -

three of which were serving
police officers.

The manhunt was concluded in a
stand off during which a 39-year-old

white male was fatally wounded by
firearms officers.

The identity of the individual has
been confirmed as Nikolai Mirsky,

a Russian national and the prime
suspect in our investigation.

Our assessment of the motive
for these attacks continues,

but the evidence overwhelmingly
indicates

the involvement of agents
of a foreign state.

I would like to pay a heartfelt
tribute to those officers who made

the ultimate sacrifice...

...giving up their lives...

...in the service of protecting us.

I did say you should give
her a call.

You did, ma'am, yes.

It's Rachel, isn't it?

Yvonne, I'm so, so sorry
for your loss.

They told me you were there
when it happened.

I...

I was the first to reach the ward
the night of the attack,

but, by the time I got to Patrick...

I'm not talking about Patrick.
I'm talking about the Russian.

You were there when they killed him.

Yes.

Thank you.

You're coming down the Crown,
Carey.

You're not putting your hand
in your pocket all night.

SHE SIGHS I don't think so.

You're the hero of Vanguard.
We're not going without you.

Perhaps you ought to...

...hero.

Abi. I was seriously thinking
about checking the news

to see if you'd been found
in a ditch somewhere.

Sorry. Shit sister.

Was that all right the other day?

The laptop?

Did I do it right?

Yeah, Abi.

You did it just right.

I've got to go.

Big day tomorrow.

Should he stay or should he go?

As Gill fights for his political
life, the security minister who saw

the Home Office crisis from inside
could deliver the decisive blow.

Join me for an exclusive interview
with Isaac Turner,

tonight live on BBC One.

Home Office.

Home truths.

Right. So, first-hand knowledge,

Gill obstructed Victoria Bello's
application.

Fast-tracked his housekeeper's
visa, his wife's

cousin's passport application.

Yes, I know. We've been over this.

Well, Gregory would like us
to run over it again.

HE SIGHS

Where's Reed?
PHONE BEEPS

Oh, shit.

"Apologies for the hold up,
nanoseconds away, Anthony."

We're ready to line up when you
are, Mr Turner.

Here's your water, Mr Turner.
Thank you.

Just going to mic you up.

Intercept in six minutes.

Camera feed secure.
Video capture in progress.

Bring it up.

I still remember my first time.

Can I just check the level
on that mic?

What did you have for breakfast?
Er, eggs, toast.

Coffee? Perfect. Caviar.
Where... Where is Reed?

Zac, catch me.
I'm parachuting in.

You're... You're not Anthony Reed.
Well, thanks.

You're not the Prime Minister,
but we play the hands we're dealt.

Anthony sends his apologies.
Family matter.

I have my theories.

Bollocks. I'm pulling it.
What? Why? Let's go.

I should really call the office.

You don't need to call the office,
I'm pulling it.

The interview's been trailed, mate.
Yeah, not with her

asking the questions, it hasn't. Oh!

Isaac.

Isaac. You really want to make
this decision - unilaterally?

Rhys, remind me - who do you work
for?

No, it's not a trick question
or a difficult one.

You work for me, but if you'd rather
work for someone else, please,

by all means, fuck off!

Isaac.

Clear set. Strike this please, Mel.
Thank you. Take water.

Let's get her mic'd up.

Intercept in four minutes.

Thank you.

Come right in.
Right over here.

Digital asset rendering.

Billy?
Do you have a mirror, please?

Check the batteries on that.
Yeah? Good?

Where... Where is Reed?

What did you have for breakfast?
I had some porridge.

Bollocks. Got enough?

More than enough.
Digital assets standing by.

PHONE RINGS OUT

Hello. So, listen, I've pulled
the interview.

What? 20 seconds to transmission.

Deploy the asset.

ANNOUNCER: Time for some home truths
now on BBC One.

In an update to our advertised
program me...

Anthony Reed never showed.

Khadija Khan turned up at the last
minute. Something's not quite right.

...an exclusive live interview
with the MP on everybody's mind.

You've pulled the interview?

Yes. I walked.

The truth is coming.

And when it comes, you'll know
about it, believe me.

PROGRAMME VOICE OVER: If proof were
ever needed that a week

is a long time in politics,

hit replay on Zac Turner's.
In just seven days...

60 seconds to intercept.
60 seconds to... Digital asset

standing by. Digital asset
standing by.

...a Home Office scandal worthy
of soap opera. We don't have to...

No, no, it's fine.
The latest twist has seen Zac

strike back with the help
of a Home Office

whistle-blower and a dossier of
dirt on his former boss, Rowan Gill.

Mother fuck you all!

Tonight, in an exclusive interview
live from London, we hear from

Isaac Turner... 30 seconds to
intercept.

Eyeline check... about the most
controversial week of his career,

his own political ambitions...
Khadija.

...and who he believes should
take the hit...

How's that? Eyeline set.
Clear frame.

Clear frame.
..for the crisis at the Home Office.

SHE BREATHES DEEPLY

Is she going to be all right?

I hope you know what you're doing.

I'm heading back to you right now.
But, listen,

the two of us need to talk.

Intercept in six, five, four...

Things have got to be different, OK?
From now on,

I want to be involved in every
decision.

OK?

Gregory? You walked.

Yes.

Intercept is live.
Intercept is live.

Was the wrong man fired
from the Home Office this week?

If you're referring to my erstwhile
colleague, the Home Secretary,

it's not my call to make.
I'm not the Prime Minister.

If the rumours in Westminster
are to be believed,

you'd like to be. Oh-ho,
in Westminster's a big if.

It's not a denial, then?

After the week I've had, Khadija,
I think it'd be unwise for me

to launch a bid for Number 10.
ON PHONE: Gregory? Hello?

Just the Home Office?
Who is this?

Erm...

Gregory, it's...

...it's me.
CALL-END ALERT

You said no more deep fakes.

Britain deserves a Home Office
that's fit for purpose.

PHONE RINGS
I tried to stop them.

I really tried. Is it fucking him?

Is what fucking him?
Britain deserves a Home Secretary

who's up to the job.

Ah... I don't know what this is.
Right. By up to the job,

I don't mean scurrying around
SW1A getting caught up

in allegations of misconduct.

He's doing OK.

I mean rising above the
Westminster... Gregory? Sh!

...bubble to confront every threat
to British democracy head-on.

But, Greg... Gregory.
It's not him.

Erm, excuse me.
Can you turn around?

I need to go back to the hotel.

Erm...

Hello. Excuse me.

Driver! Hello!

Are you suggesting there
are threats to British democracy

not being confronted?
I'm not suggesting it, Khadija,

I'm saying it loud and clear.

Can you indicate the nature
of some of those threats?

Two words...

...big tech.

What?!
KHADIJA: Big tech?

Whatever Gregory Knox is paying you,
it's not going to be worth the hell

I'm going to unleash if you
don't turn this fucking car around!

We all know the extent
to which technology and social media

has infiltrated our daily lives.

It's in our homes,
it's on our screens.

It's got our children hooked.

I dare say I'm not the only dad
in the country who regrets giving in

to their daughter's demands
for a smart phone.

Nice detail

But it's also infiltrated
our political systems -

not just in Britain, but around
the world. Infiltrated how?

By harvesting our data without our
consent and using it to interfere

with elections, referendums,
political campaigns.

You're saying that tech
corporations are meddling

in UK politics directly?

Well, not directly.

The dirty work tends to be done
by data analytics companies

outside of Silicon Valley. Shit!

Here in the UK, for instance?

I can think of one such
example here in the UK, yes.

Frank, is this you?

What the fuck are you doing to me?!

How much of this is illegal?

Well, we've seen how nimble
these guys can be when it comes

to dancing around tax laws.

Clearly, Khadija, if a plot
to affect British democracy

was directed by a member
of a foreign state,

that's a serious
international incident.

If a British national is found to
have colluded in such

an attempt, that's treason.

Holy shit!

Is he fleeing already?

My money's on Ecuador.

Do you see any hope of holding them
to account? Not as things stand.

Tech giants behave as if they're
untouchable.

Britain needs a Home Secretary -
indeed, a Prime Minister - who

isn't afraid to tell them
otherwise.

What do you mean, none?
How's that possible?

ON PHONE: We knew it was going to be
inconclusive until we received

the results of the biopsy.

So, from riddled to all clear?

I agree it's unusual.

Erm, CT imaging throws up anomalies
from time to time,

but rarely this inconsistent.

You'll have to come
in for a biopsy. Wait a second.

These images
you've been showing me -

black tar covering
all my internal organs -

did you receive
those electronically?

It's all electronic. By email?

Uploaded to the hospital servers.
I get it from there.

Motherfucker.

Alarmingly, the tech industry
has done absolutely nothing

to combat the issue of election
interference.

And, frankly, one has to ask why.

In fact, one has to wonder what
such corporations have to gain.

If I'm not mistaken, DCI Carey,
you appear to be enjoying this.

Gregory Knox's
plan has been sabotaged.

An attack on British democracy
has been averted.

Thanks to your work in particular,
DS Flynn's family

feel a strong sense of justice
for Patrick.

Are you starting to see the
potential for good in this strange

little program me we call
Correction?

Frank!

Are you OK?

Never better.

Fit as a mule, apparently.

I mean, doctor says I may be looking
at a benign stomach ulcer, but...

You mean...? Hm?

Biopsy report came back.

I don't have cancer.

But that's... incredible.

It is incredible,

when you consider that,
just the other day, my CT scan

indicated I was riddled with it.
It doesn't make sense.

That's right after I told
you how sick I was.

You need to go in for some more
tests. What the fuck did you do?

What did I do?
Don't fucking lie to me.

Frank, I have no idea what
you're talking...

I know you're behind this.
You're obviously very upset.

All that talk about redemption,
about Sunday School.

You wanted my fucking op,
didn't you?

Well, something had to be done
after the shit shower

you made of it!
Are you out of your fucking mind?

You hacked my medical records!

Don't you hate it when
mum and dad argue?

Think about it. You're not dying -
it's good...

Don't worry. I've got you.

It's good news, Frank.
You're not dying. It is good...

It's good news! Have you any idea
what I've been through?

I was up on the roof. You were what?

I was looking right down
into the traffic.

I could have jumped!

But, obviously, Khadija,

there are other ways in which
the government has failed us.

Which other ways? Well, that would
have been deeply regrettable.

Regrettable?!

I would have been tomato bisque
on the side walk. Wait!

Are you fucking nuts?
Wait! What is not known

is the extent to which
deep fake technology has already

pervaded our society. In what sense?

The truth is, deepfakes
have been deployed by the British

authorities for a number of years
now... What's this?

...in ways that threaten our core
values of democracy, liberty...

What is this? ..rule of law.

Mr Turner, you have to admit that
the idea of British authorities...

This is not in the script.
This is not my script.

This operation is compromised.

Compromised? What the fuck
you talking about?

It's the transcript you gave me.
No, it isn't. Khadija, wrap it up.

Did you switch the script? No, of
course not! Khadija, wrap it up.

Wrap it up. KHADIJA: Deepfakes are
deployed...

Khadija, wrap it up!
She can't hear you.

If I ever...
Unless she's in on it.

Shut the whole thing down.

I can't get in! The asset or
the transmission? Everything.

Everything.

Ma'am, you can't cut the broadcast.

Right now, he's just a politician
with a conspiracy theory.

Shut it down,
everyone will believe it.

She's got a point.

Does she?

Mr Turner, deepfakes
have been deployed in what way?

They call it Correction.

It's a method of real-time video
manipulation, using the disruption

of camera feeds and the deployment
of deep fake technology.

Who do you mean by "they"? Members
of our own intelligence services,

our government and the police.

But, Mr Turner, to be clear,
you're asserting that there's some

sort of program me within British
intelligence to create

fake video footage.

Well, let's say they have intel
of a terrorist plot,

but the evidence against the
suspects is insufficient...

They make up incriminating footage?

Well, THEY would say they turn
intelligence into evidence.

Rachel Carey...
This is a serious accusation.

...you are under arrest for breach
of the Official Secrets Act.

You do not have to say anything,
but it may harm your defence

if you do not mention
when questioned...

I am sorry, ma'am, but you're
currently within the legal

jurisdiction of the
United States of America.

Frank. Whilst you remain within the
legal jurisdiction... You don't have

the power to arrest... of the
United States of America,

you must abide by the rules,
regulations

and limitations of US...
Frank!

Would you shut the fuck up?
Now, if you'll excuse me,

I know how this ends.

Frank, please detain DCI Carey.

I've reason to suspect
she's involved in subversive action

against the state. Not my state.

He hasn't said anything
about the US.

Frank, help!

For crying out loud!

She gives me cancer,
then she asks for my help.

The moment you set foot
outside this building,

you are eligible for arrest!

As we all are...

...ma'am.

Rachel!

Listen!

You don't know what you've done.

I know one thing...

...Patrick Flynn hated Correction.

KHADIJA: And this so-called
Correction... Correction program me.

Correction program me -
when were you made aware of it?

When I became a victim. A victim?

People may have noticed
there have been a number of things

I've said out of character recently
- absurd ideas

I would never advocate.
Racial profiling, for example.

Are you suggesting that it wasn't
you who made those comments?

No, I'm not suggesting it, Khadija,
I'm saying it loud and clear.

Mr Turner, you have to admit
that the idea of...

I always knew you were destined
for greatness...

...creating false evidence...
..one way or another.

...you were railing against
a moment ago.

You should get down there.

You're missing the best bit.

You're not worried people will
think this is

some outlandish conspiracy theory?

Well, people should question it.

We need to challenge everything
we're told and question

everything we see.

We need to ask of every voice
on every recording of every image

on every screen...

...how do we know this is real?

In his interview, for example.

It purports to be a live broadcast.
Well, it is a live broadcast.

Can you prove it? Well, I can go
online,

show the latest news headlines.

All right, now we're getting
somewhere. But what about me?

What about you?

Well, I look like Isaac Turner,
I sound like Isaac Turner.

How do we know I'm the real deal?

Who's to say the real Isaac Turner
isn't in a car, right now,

on the way to Piccadilly Circus?

Who's to say the cameras filming
this interview haven't been hacked?

Who's to say Isaac Turner's image
hasn't been captured,

animated by artificial intelligence?

Who's to say, since the very
start of this interview,

while you believed you were watching
Isaac Turner,

you were, in fact, watching me -

a deep fake. Fake...
AUDIO DISRUPTION

It's impossible to say.

Unless, of course, you happen
to be in Piccadilly Circus right now

and can see Isaac Turner
with your own eyes, then...

...perhaps you can.

If you are in or near Piccadilly
Circus,

look around you.

Take out your phones
and start filming.

Hopefully, together, we can shine
a light on the challenges

we face surrounding deepfakes.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And, hopefully, we can begin to
raise awareness of the illegal

practice of Correction.

Because only by bringing
this conspiracy out into the open

can we hope to confront it.

As you can see, I'm not
in the studio with Isaac Turner MP.

Mr Turner is in
Piccadilly Circus,

graciously playing his part
in our, hopefully,

eye-opening stunt.

You have indeed been watching
a deep fake interview.

But the alarming practice
of Correction described in it

is very much real.

Working with a team
of whistle-blowers from the heart

of British intelligence, the BBC
has obtained evidence that knowledge

of the so-called Corruption
program me extends across multiple UK

intelligence agencies and to senior
members of the British government.

In a series of exclusive reports,

starting tonight, we will be
examining these alarming

revelations in detail

We will be sharing the evidence
obtained by the BBC.

And, finally, we will be confronting
those ultimately responsible.
