Where've you been?

Danny sent me home last night.

I'm sorry,
I thought he told you.

OK, no problem.

So, as you know, we've been
asked to recheck the BT malware.

I'd like you to do a strings.

What, just pull all the text?

Yeah. That's right,
and go through it.

You know, passwords,
hash types?

See if we missed anything.

Look, if this is my fault
I'm really sorry. I was...

It's fine.

Someone needs to do the strings.
You're here on work experience.

Or do you think
you're too grand to do it?

No, of course not.

Good. Well, off you go then.

Options for
an Offensive Cyber response.

With respect,
Prime Minister, can I say
that GCHQ opposes

the use of OC
in a situation of this kind?

Why?

Because of the law
of unintended consequences.

We close down part
of Russia's electricity grid

but it turns out it also
supplies a hospital.

They broadcast pictures
of patients dying and...

Offensive Cyber
is an attack on a country,

just like in any other
domain of conflict.

And it's very, very dangerous
as... With respect,
we are proving here.

They take out parts
of our infrastructure.

We retaliate,
attack one of their systems.

They hit us again, this time
a more critical target.

We up the stakes another notch
and, before you know it,

we're into a cycle of escalation
and a catastrophic loss of life.

So what do you suggest we do?

Expel more diplomats,
like we did after Novichok?

Look how much good that did.

They're playground bullies.

We need to hit back
in a language they understand.

If we do nothing,
they'll just come back at us
harder next time.

Options.

Well, we could turn off SWIFT
to all their banks.

That might be
quite appropriate,

given the impact
of their attacks
on our cash machines.

No.

OK. Well, we could take
control of Putin's car briefly.

Flash the lights,
accelerate and decelerate,
that kind of thing.

-You can do that?
-Oh, yes.

We could also drop his plane
20,000 feet mid-flight.

As a demonstration of power,
that might be quite effective.

Though they would
almost certainly target
our leadership in response.

No. What else?

I suppose we could fry
all the lines into Glavset.

-Into what?
-Glavset.

It's the source of most of
Russia's Twitter propaganda
aimed at the UK.

We could shut it down.

How long would that take?

Er, well, we'd have to create
the exploit first,

so seven, maybe eight days.

Eight days?

OK, do it.

I'm sorry,
I've got to take a break.

Can't keep my eyes open.

OK.

Don't be long.

Can I?

Sure, why not?

You OK?

Just got to wake myself up.

-What is it?
-It's an energy drink.

Oh!

Sweet.

It's a quick hit.
It'll keep you going.

So who is he?
The old man you keep staring at?

Did they show you Jive?

What?

It's kind of an
in-house Facebook.

Well, he writes a blog for it
every week.

Correcting the grammar
in everyone else's posts.

-What?
-Yeah.

-No way.
-I'm not shitting you.

That's what he's doing
right now.

Just sitting there
correcting our mistakes.

That is one sad fucker.

You're that student who found
the second malware, right?

Congratulations.

Not really.

Oh.

I thought that you were
the golden girl?

Yeah, 'were' is right.

Apparently, finding that code
just made everyone else
look bad.

So, now we've got to start again
and everyone in my department
hates me.

Well, maybe
they're just jealous?

No, really.

What have you found?

Some of this text
is encrypted.

That's OK.
They do that sometimes.

It's probably just a bit
of random text that's got
pasted in by mistake.

But shouldn't we check,
to be safe?

Get it decrypted?

Can't. Not without the key.

Surely GCHQ can crack encryption
without a key.

Isn't that what we do here?

It's part of what we do.

So who does that?

The mathematicians.
But you'd be wasting your time.

Why?

Sorry, I just want to
understand, for the future.

Because it would be a huge
commitment of resources.

And they wouldn't think
it was worth it.

Just for this little bit
of encrypted text?

That's right.

OK, thanks for explaining.

No problem.

But if I happened
to know a mathematician,
here, in the building,

would you mind if I could
persuade him to take a look?

No, but he won't.
And he'd be right.

It's not a priority.
And it's not what
we've asked you to do.

Can I take this chair?

Thank you.

Don't people hate having
their grammar corrected?

Mm.

Doesn't it just make
everyone hate you?

If we wrote code
as sloppily as we write English,
it would never run.

"Some things," "somethings"
have to be right.

Is that all you're having?

I'm Muslim.

They don't have
anything halal here.
And I don't like vegetables.

I'm looking for a mathematician
friend but he isn't here.

Can you tell me where they work,
the mathematicians?

I'm new here.

I'll show you if you like.

But I warn you,
they won't be very welcoming.

What's funny?

"They won't be very welcoming."

No different to any other
department here then?

No different "from"
any other department.

It's "different from,
compared with."

Have you worked here
a long time?

Here and before.

Before?

Before we were in this,
this doughnut.

Was it very different
"from" now?

It was.

I'd like to have seen that.

I can show you if you like.

OK.

You wanted to see
the mathematicians.
This is it. Cryptology.

By the way, we don't ask
where departments are at GCHQ,

especially Cryptology.

You know, security and all that.

But I won't tell if you don't.

If you do want to see
the old HQ, let me know.

Hello. Erm,
sorry to interrupt.

Is there anyone here
called Gabriel?

What do you want? I'm busy.

Do you really still
use this stuff?

We don't have whiteboards.
Too noisy.

You shouldn't be here.

What is it?

It's encrypted text.
From a malware string.

Encrypted strings
pop up all the time.
It doesn't mean anything.

That's what
they told me you'd say.

Come on, Gabriel.

Encrypted text
from a piece of malware
we haven't seen before?

It must be worth a look, surely?

Please.

I can't make any promises.

We're busy. We may decide
it's not worth the time
and resources.

Are you saying you can't do it?

No. I'm saying it might not be
worth the time and resources.

Thank you.

Whiteboards.

Too noisy as in
too bright, right?

Of course.
What else could it mean?

Oh, Allah.
Forgive Ahmed Parvin.

And elevate his station
amongst those who are guided.

Send him along the path
of those who came before.

And forgive him
and have mercy on him.

And make him steadfast
and harden him.

Be generous to him,
and cleanse him
of his transgressions,

as a white cloth
cleansed of stains.

Saara! Saara, no.

Ami.Come.

Bye-bye, Abu.

Hi, we're gonna
need to search your bag.

-Sure.
-Harriet?

Can you help save the planet?

James.

How was it?

Oh, no. Come here.

Don't. Please.

Lunch is served.

OK, anyone saying thank you?
Thank you?

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

What's wrong?

Are you allowed
to bring your class here?

Am I allowed?

Am I allowed?

It's the weekend.

I think it's, you know,
think it's good that

they know what's going on
in the world.

Isn't it?

Is this it?

Three words
and some hexadecimal?

Why? Were you expecting more?

No. Er, I don't know.

It's just...
You've done it so quickly.

It was weird.

What?

You've heard of
trapdoor encryption?

Is that what they used?

There was a rope hanging down,
through the trapdoor.

Like it wanted me
to climb up it. Like it
wanted to be decrypted.

And?

Eagles summer stages,
that's what it says.

Plus some hexadecimal.

-What does it mean?
-I don't know.

And whatever you're up to,
I don't want to be involved.
Ever.

OK, Finn, let it loose.

Well done. Now we wait.

I think the hexadecimal's
a date and time.

I wondered if the words
meant anything to you.

Where did you find this?

Hidden in the malware strings.

I got one of the mathematicians
to decrypt it for me.

Saara, you do know that
you shouldn't be talking to me
about this, right?

I'm not cleared for the things
that you're working on.

I know, but I just
need a bit of help.

Sit.

I already did this.

OK.

Have you tried What3words?

So, three apparently random
words can be used to identify

a three-metre square
anywhere on the planet.

Your three words are inside...

Harrogate Conference Centre.

You said that you had a date?

The 28th of April,30 a.m.

Oh, my God.

It's Cyber World.

It's right in the middle
of the Cyber World conference.

That can't be a coincidence.

What does this mean?
I don't understand.

You said that
this was encrypted
inside the BT malware?

Yeah.

Well you have a date,
a time and a place.

It looks like someone's
sending us an invitation.

I think
it's one of their coders.

Trying to reach out.

What do Max and Phil
think about this?

I haven't told them.

-I wanted to crack it first...
-Sorry, just to be clear.

You're working in malware

and you haven't told
your head of department
what you're doing?

Phil agreed to me
getting it decrypted.

Yes, but you haven't told them
what you've found?

You've gone
over their heads to me?

You're on a work placement!

Apart from anything else,
have you considered

how incredibly disrespectful
that is to Max and Phil?

No, truthfully, I hadn't.

What's your
involvement in this?

Well, you know, we've been
trying to track down the coders

and if this is a message
from one of them...

OK, what do you suggest
we do about it?

-Me?
-Yes, you.

I think someone
should go to Harrogate.

Me, if no one else will.

OK.

-"OK?"
-You can go.

No way!

I want you to go with her, OK?

If it's Cyber World,
the FSB are gonna be there.

It's likely one
of their provocations.
It's got all the hallmarks.

And make sure you update
Max and Phil.

She probably thinks
we're on a date.

Or that I'm your carer.

It's back up. Glavset.

Yeah. Afraid so.

So how long did we manage
to take them down for?

About 21 hours.

Unbelievable.

And still no sign of a reprisal?

No, nothing,
not even a polite complaint.

Makes us look a bit foolish,
doesn't it?

All our dire warnings
about the escalatory nature
of offensive cyber.

Well, no, maybe
they were smarter
than we realised, you know?

Russia's never acknowledged
the existence of Glavset.

How can you complain
about an attack

on an organisation
that doesn't officially exist?

Hmm.

What was this?

Canteen.

And no meat, because you don't,
you know...

Thank you.

Why did you... Why did you
choose to work here
in the first place?

Here at GCHQ?

Er, Mum and Dad worked here.

GCHQ's a family business,
always has been.

So, they met here?

Here, no. At Bletchley.

During the war. Hut 6.

-Really?
-Mmhmm.

Yes, if it weren't for GCHQ,
I wouldn't exist.

I haven't told my family
where I work.

Really? You can now, I think.

Well, I know
but they wouldn't understand.

Well, my dad did but he died.

You remind me of him.

'Course, back in the day,
we didn't have emails

or bloody iPhones.
We had Lamson tubes.

What's that?

An old network of pneumatic
tubes all over the place.

Did you know, if you wanted
to send a document,

do you know
what you did with it?

You rolled it up.

Put it in a carrier.

It could be anywhere,
anywhere in all these buildings.
Two minutes tops.

Marvellous.

Absolute marvellous
piece of engineering, really.

It was about
the size of that can.

-Perfect for chocolate eclairs.

-Oh, yeah?
-Oh, yes.

Stern memos were sent.

"Personal use of the Lamson tube
is not permitted!"

It was how
I proposed to my wife.

No way!

Did she reply?

Oh, no. She...
She said she'd think about it.

So you didn't go down
on bended knee then?

No, no. I'm...

Far... Far too shy.

Do you... No, you don't.

It didn't last, of course.
She left me.

I don't blame her.

We could never really
talk about anything,
what we were doing.

But you both worked here?

Surely she was the only type
of person you could talk to?

Different departments.

"Compartmentation,"
they call it.

Can't talk about
what you're doing.

Destroys relationships.

If you're not careful.

Funny, I used to think of people
here as my family.

They...

They seemed like family.

But they weren't.

Not my real family.

You have to take care
of your real family.

Choose.

James?

Katy?

-Hi!
-Hi, erm...

Do you know where James is?

Yeah. He's, er, behind the band,
round the corner there.

Are you Saara?

Yeah. Is James here?

Come on in.

Thanks.

-Where's your coat?
-What were you doing?

We were just training.
For if we get arrested.

OK, er...

OK. What is it, Saara?
What's the problem?

I'm worried about your job.

OK.

It's an illegal protest
and you're bringing
your class down here.

Does the school know?

You're not a student
any more, James.

No, I know I'm not a student.

Any more, but are you sure
it's not your job
we're talking about here?

Yeah, yeah, that's part of it.

OK.

Did you know that
most of the questions

I got asked at my vetting
interview were about you?

Your politics.

Are you trying to get me
into trouble?

No.

No, of course not.

What are you saying?
That you can't work there
and have political views?

Because I don't know
about you but I think
this is quite important.

Whether the kids that
I teach will have a future
on this planet.

Whether the kids you and I
might have one day will have
a future on this planet.

Isn't that more important
than your job?

Or my job?
Or any job, actually?

What is it?

I'm...

I'm really not thinking about
having kids with you, James.

I'm not. I'm sorry.

So, the surface of revolution...

is a surface defined by

z equals capital H of r.

We need to underline that.

Where r, z and theta are...

Anyone?

Cylindrical polar coordinates.

Thank you, Saara.

Well, I'm glad
someone's listening.

So, yes, are cylindrical
polar coordinates.

So, yes. So, z
is the height coordinate.

I can't believe you said that
he should've written it out
before the lesson!

He definitely likes you.

Why don't you ask him out?

What? That's so gross, Vadim.

Anyway, I can't.
He's on the faculty.

Ask him anyway.
Life's too short.

I couldn't believe it's you.

-That was good today.
-Yeah.

Would you like a mask?

We've got red ones, yellow ones.

Thanks. For my partner.

So who are you voting for?

Ha-ha.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Georgia Henderson?

GCHQ don't like us
to use our real names.

OK.

Well, let's find the place.
So we're all set for tomorrow.

Here? Really?

Yeah.

Do you wanna decompress?

Sure.

Oh.

Don't judge me, all right,
it's a problem.

I'm not.

I've actually always wished
I was a messy person.

What?

You know my ex's apartment
was this,

this beautiful,
minimalist nightmare

and if I left anything of mine
out she had it gone in,
like, nano-seconds.

That sounds
passive aggressive to me.

-Tidying away the evidence
of your existence.
-Huh.

You know what?
You're exactly right.

You're more perceptive
than I give you credit for.

Can I have one?

I thought you don't drink?

I don't.

Careful now.

Shut up.

Right on time.

Dad!

Yeah, I know, I know,
I was at dinner.

No, I did not have
a Yorkshire pudding, Dad,

but good job on the research.
Maybe next time.

Look, I gotta go, OK?

Yeah.

Night, Dad.

I love you, too.

Sorry about that.

He always gets through to me,
even when I was in Iraq.

Have I said something wrong?

No. No...

Then tell me.

It's just...

My dad died...

Recently, actually.

Fuck. I'm... I'm so sorry.

-Sorry, I'm such a dick.
-No, honestly, it's fine.

It's great you've got
such a good relationship
with your dad.

There was an accident...
a few days ago.

He was a train driver.
He was on the tracks

and he was hit by a train.

Oh, fuck.

That's according
to my family anyway.

What, you think that it might
have been deliberate?

He was difficult.

Unusual, not difficult.

I was the only one
who really understood him.

He was dependent on me.

Quite heavily dependent.

He had bouts of depression
when I was growing up.

And I used to be the one
who could make him laugh,

get him out of a slump.

And I went away
and I just abandoned him...

Hey.

It's not your fault, OK?

You know, my dad's a cop.

And he was under the towers
on 9/11.

And he lost most of his friends,

you know, guys that
he'd known since school.

And he was really
fucked up by it,

I mean we all were...

And he needed support too.

But, in the end,
I still went away, Saara.
I still got on with my life.

But you talk to him every day,

even when you were
in fucking Iraq.

I ignored mine.

I cut him out.

Saara, he loved you.

He loved you.

All right?
I'm sure he understood.

Yeah, you're right.

He understood perfectly,
that's the point.

He threw himself
under a train, Kathy.

Come here.

It's going to be all right.

You're going to be all right.

It's not a good idea.

Right, you're upset.

I should go to bed.

Yeah, me too.

We've got some serious standing
around to do tomorrow, so...

Morning.

Morning.

Let's get this over with
so I can get back to
Danny's office and apologise.

It's gonna be fine.

One minute.

I'm sorry about last night.

I don't drink, you know? And...

I guess it had more of an effect
than I was expecting.

It's great timing on this
particular conversation
starter, Saara.

Go on.

Thank you for coming.

What do you want?

Oh, sorry.

Vadim?

What are you doing here?
