'The following programme contains strong language.'

ROBERT: 'So, the situation at Godley Common?'

The Metro Ultraline construction at Godley remains paralysed

by the Planet Resistance protest. The army. Send them in.

Get it done and dusted.

...Ultraline isn't being built because it's green.

It's being built so a load of arseholes can make a mint.

I am my country's future. There is no danger to our investment here.

This is a future for both our countries

we are more than happy to embrace.

So, your daughter has come home. Yes, we're very happy.

She's fortunate to have a father she can be proud of.

Ellie. Welcome to the war.

Planet Resistance has uploaded a video.

'My name is Ellie Sutherland. By the time you see this,

I will be deep down a tunnel beneath Godley Common village.'

Our daughter's underground and your priority is your train set?

Rachel, I need to work and I need you to get out of this room.

What we are calling for is systemic change.

(MUFFLED EXPLOSION) What's happening?

(SHOUTING AND SCREAMING)

(MUFFLED RUMBLING)

Rachel, please stop this.

You can't seriously just expect me to sit here?

I expect you to wait. We can go together,

once the situation's been assessed. What needs to be assessed?

Our daughter is in that hole!

I can do more for her � more for everyone - if I'm here.

And what can I do?

What can I do to help my daughter while you manage?

You can't do anything.

The rescue workers can do something.

I can do something - because I'm the leader of the fucking country.

But I need you...

as I always have... to be my rock.

I'm going to her, even if I have to dig her out with my bare hands.

(PHONE RINGING TONE)

Charlie.

CHARLIE: I'm sorry, Mrs Sutherland. I can't take you there.

Charlie, I need to find my daughter. I have orders.

Fine. I'll take a bloody taxi.

Ma'am, please � Open the door.

I can't let you.

I'm your Protection Officer. It isn't safe.

Charlie, open the door.

Please.

(CLICK AS DOOR UNLOCKS)

(PHONE RINGING TONE)

She's on her way back, sir.

Is Audrey briefing us?

Have you had ANY sleep? No.

Are you sure you... What?

Archie can handle the Cobra, and I can brief you.

Nobody expects you to � To what?

Have a hand steady enough for the wheel?

I'm just saying, you don't need to � Anna, I know what I need.

Robert, I think I speak for the room when I -

Audrey. Current situation?

'Sir, we have established Strategic Command here at the primary school

for a Search and Rescue operation.

As you're aware, we're contending with

a massive subterranean collapse beneath Godley Common.

A sinkhole at least 80 metres deep.

There's catastrophic damage in both the village

and the Ultraline site on the perimeter.'

Tell me the um...

probability of survival.

'Prime Minister, I'm afraid I can't give...

There are currently 11 hospitalised and 37 fatalities,

but the operation is still in its early stages

and many people are unaccounted for.'

And what caused this um... sinkhole.

Any indication as of why?

'We have geophysicists gathering data but -'

Because what I can't help but find somewhat troubling...

is the fact we've been boring an enormous tunnel...

and now everything around it has been swallowed.

Was this our fault?

With respect, let's not jump to conclusions of liability.

This is contingency preparation, isn't it?

Robert, we all understand the strain you're under.

Oh, I'm sure you do.

I'm heading for the site.

I'll make a public statement from there.

'Prime Minister...

Search and Rescue are concerned that you coming here might �'

Might what?

'The situation is very fluid. We think it might be better if �'

I'm not offering it up as a suggestion.

(BANG)

(TENSE THEME MUSIC)

(SIRENS WAIL)

(CUTTING TOOLS WHIR)

(OPERATIONAL CHATTER)

God forbid we can leave before SHE gets here.

Have you brought his shovel? Rachel.

Maybe I should take another car. No. We need to work my statement.

(LIVELY CHATTER)

(SIREN STARTS)

RESCUER: I've another one. Another fatality?

26 now.

A literal mortuary.

(CHATTER CONTINUES)

...the tracks, followed them around.

It just came out.

Keep it steady!

Guide it.

Nearly there.

REPORTER: 'Commissioner, questions are already being raised

over a policing strategy which is being described

as confused, contradictory, even shambolic.

What is your response?' 'Officers carried out their duties

to the best of their abilities

based on their orders, and government policy.'

'So, was this an outright failure of command,

or was the involvement of the Prime Minister's daughter

a factor in the subsequent disaster �'

(TV MUTED) Was she a factor? Jesus Christ.

A factor in shafting us good and proper, yes.

How's Robert going to answer that?

I told Anna Marshall it was a mistake to put him in front of the public.

I'm sure that was received with her customary warmth.

I said YOU should do it. (LAUGHS)

And yet you're not limping. Mm.

Robert's the one with the twatted stature.

(LAUGHS) That may be so. But I have no desire

to suffer the slings and arrows of HIS poor decisions.

Give him enough rope, that sort of thing?

Your words, not mine.

'This has been, and continues to be,

a complex and quickly-evolving situation.

(OPERATIONAL CHATTER)

Can you hear me, sir? Can you tell me your name?

One, two, three... lift.

Down.

And lift.

Henry?

Stand back. No, I know him.

Alright, go with them.

Robert... The changes you've made...

I've just moderated the approach. By cutting every mention of Ellie?

Everyone in the country knows the situation.

Then I hardly need to bring it up when I address them.

I know it's difficult, but I don't think cutting every mention of her -

We're here.

Are you ashamed?

Ashamed? Of Ellie. Of the tunnel.

Of... her video. All of it.

Is it embarrassing for you?

I'm here to OFFER compassion, not ASK for it.

But you don't have to be a robot about it.

No, but I do have to be the Prime Minister.

(MUFFLED RADIO CHATTER)

We're still finding survivors, but so far we have 94 dead

and at least 150 missing.

Buildings were swallowed whole, with the victims inside.

The locus of the Ultraline site and the protest camp is...

I'm afraid we're expecting significant casualties -

the individuals within the protest tunnel and the eviction personnel.

With the volume of soil pulled over them,

the probability is that they were crushed instantly.

AUDREY: But we don't know that for certain and we're doing all we can.

We've got multiple scanning sites in the field.

It's just, the severity of the collapse, it's unusual.

And you still can't tell me why this happened?

As I've said, Prime Minister, we're still gathering data.

Every resource you need, it's yours. Understood. But...

all we can do now really is... search.

(PANTING)

NATE: Help!

(TORCH SWITCH CLICKS)

(GRUNTS)

(GROANS)

(EXHALES SHARPLY) Fuck.

Ellie! Ellie! Hey. What...

Come on, get up. What happened?

I don't know. (GROANS)

(HE GROANS) Put this on. (SHE COUGHS)

(COUGHS)

What happened? I don't fucking know, alright?!

We need to get out of here. (COUGHS)

Nate... We need to get out!

Yeah, we... we have the radio. No, no.

We don't. It's fucked. How could...

The antenna's been cut in two.

And the fucking entrance is blocked.

But there has to be a way out somewhere.

Henry knows where we are. Jesus! We're not gonna stay here.

It could take weeks to dig us out. That was the whole point.

(COUGHS)

No, you do what you want. I'm not dying here.

(DEBRIS PATTERS)

Fucking cave could collapse any moment!

(ELLIE GRUNTS)

NEWS: '..persistent heavy rainfall

and disturbance from the construction

of the controversial Ultraline rail project.

It remains to be seen whether Mr Sutherland

has anything to say about this when he addresses the public.

And there's no question, this tragedy brings with it

a deep personal turmoil for him, given his daughter's involvement.'

I saw Rachel leaving. To join the relief workers.

She was desperate to help. Or to be well away from me.

She doesn't blame you. You're both afraid, and in pain.

But she's right about one thing. Your statement.

If you don't even acknowledge that Ellie...

(SIGHS) ..that she's... What?

Maybe dead?

Don't even think that. My point exactly.

Then I might actually be able to get through this.

You can accept she's part of this,

which makes YOU part of it too.

You WILL lead with strength, because you stand

with all those desperate for their loved and missing.

(GRUNTS)

(NATE GRUNTS)

(NATE GROANS)

(GRUNTS) I can't breathe. I can't fucking...

(MUTTERS BREATHLESSLY)

(COUGHS) Nate, what's the matter?

I need to get out. Nate?

(COUGHS WHEEZILY)

Nate?

Nate!

I can't breathe.

We have to keep going. I need to get out.

No... Stop, Nate! Nate, stop! I need to get out!

I can't breathe.

I can't fucking breathe.

Nate, please.

There's no way out of here. Follow me.

Nate, please. We have to keep moving, please.

Nate, come on.

All I remember...

...is that suddenly there was no ground...

...and the world turned upside down.

They still don't know what happened. The government happened.

They said all along Ultraline was...

I've seen the risk documents.

They knew that the ground was mush from the old mining...

...and they were building within the zone of influence. (COUGHS)

You need to rest, for God's sake.

How many are hurt?

It's going up.

A lot of people are still missing.

(GRUNTS)

Nate!

I think I can see something. Look!

Oh, thank Christ.

Henry!

Thank fuck...

I've been frantic. I can't get hold of Nate.

Polly, he went in the tunnel with Ellie.

What? She took your place.

He went to show her how to - Jesus Christ, Henry!

I can show you where they are.

If you get me a map, I can...

The rescue workers...

You have to tell them about the radio.

(GASPS WITH SHOCK)

Christ! We must be right under the Ultraline site.

Fuck!

Missed appointments, no communication,

friends duly raised the alarm.

And given that she's the Princess, it was passed up to Intelligence.

We made quiet enquiries with the embassy,

concerning the Princess's security.

They told us she took a private jet home to visit her father.

And that much we've confirmed from the flight manifest.

More in doubt is whether she went of her own volition.

She's hardly kicking and screaming.

Most likely sedated.

Perhaps she's a nervous flyer. (LAUGHS)

I mean, one can hardly draw absolute conclusions from this footage,

wouldn't you agree? I would.

And I assume you refrained

from mentioning the footage to the embassy?

I did.

In fact, our assessment is that -

given our friendship with the Kingdom -

there's no need for this footage to be... preserved.

Friendship indeed.

And it's only friendly to let a family matter...

...remain a family matter.

I wasn't even meant to be in this fucking tunnel.

I only came down cos of you - cos you needed a nanny - you fucking tourist,

spoilt little brat wanting to piss off her daddy.

What are you doing? What are you doing?

These wires...

Would they work with the radio? Make an antenna?

Fuck.

Nate! Come on! Would it work? I don't know... Maybe.

Then do it. Help me. Please.

What if we just... OK, wait, wait.

Give me the light.

One here, on here.

Is it fixable?

I don't know.

I watched Henry build it.

(RINGING TONE) Come on Anna, pick up.

(PHONE BUZZES)

Thank God. Are you OK? I've been better.

Listen, I'm sending you something from Henry.

Henry Wicks? 'He's got information about Ellie.'

Wait, I'm with Robert.

It's Francine.

Help how? 'Ellie was in a separate tunnel.

I'm sending you the location and the design of some kind of radio thing.

It might help you find her.'

GOSSETT: I've seen this kind of device.

Induction transmitter at 68KHz, single-sideband.

We'll get a unit, see if we can � We've told you where she is. Dig!

We'll make our own assessment. If she IS there, it is very deep

and the instability of the ground is... Sir.

We're sending officers to the location, but please understand -

Prime Minister. There's something you need to hear.

It looks like the collapse was precipitated

by combustion of methane deposits in the subsoil.

The power-grid recorded a massive spike right before the collapse,

from within the Ultraline tunnel boring machine.

If it malfunctioned, it could have ignited the methane.

Ultraline caused this? Various possibilities -

Why wasn't this machine examined? The company's refusing access

until they've verified the integrity of the tunnel.

Fuck the integrity! I want this thing investigated now.

Sir. Robert, they need us for the speech.

Understood. Thank you, Audrey.

They tried to make radio contact at the location Henry Wicks gave.

They couldn't find a signal. No, it doesn't mean she's...

It's possible HER radio's failed.

Or that she's moved.

Apparently, the unit can transmit a... a beacon signal,

and they're scanning for it across the area. Robert...

...don't lose hope. Please.

Put on a brave face.

(CAMERAS CLICK)

(CHATTER)

(CAMERAS CLICK)

I would like to begin by thanking our emergency services

for their heroic efforts in these most difficult circumstances.

To date, 54 people have been rescued from the devastation...

and survivors continue to be found by our Search and Rescue teams.

However, I must also inform you...

...that the number of dead... now stands at 114...

I'm sure you will join me

in offering my most profound sympathies to the families,

and in my prayers

that we will find alive those currently unaccounted for.

It is no secret... that I share your pain.

My own daughter is among the missing.

I am under no illusion that... that Ellie...

...that whatever the outcome...

...her involvement will not be without consequence

both for her and for myself.

But at this point, I'm sure you understand...

...my sole priority

is to ensure the rescue mission proceeds...

Prime Minister.

...and is successful.

(REPORTERS CALL OUT QUESTIONS)

At this point, that's all I have.

Prime Minister. Prime Minister.

Prime Minister!

Will you be considering your position?

(SOFT SQUEAL OF RADIO SIGNAL) Ellie.

It's transmitting.

(SIGHS) Do you really think it'll work?

They're not gonna let YOU die down here, are they?

They'll be combing stone by stone.

(SLOW CLICKING)

We believe the methane WAS ignited by the Ultraline machine, but it wasn't a malfunction.

'We've identified preliminary evidence of deliberate tampering.

The circuit was burnt through

and there's residue of pyrotechnic chemicals.'

Who did this? 'As yet, we don't know.

But it bears the hallmarks of an incendiary device

and our priority is to evacuate the area

and search for secondary devices.

Transport will take you and Mrs Sutherland back to �'

You can't suspend the search for people.

You can't suspend. There are still hundreds of people out there!

'You have to suspend.

We've been warned there could be more gas.

If there's another explosive, you'll be digging out

the rest of Godley Common, as well as your own people.'

Robert.

We can't risk this being worse.

But it isn't YOUR child buried out there, is it?

Rachel.

Suspend the rescue.

TANNOY: 'Please evacuate the area!

All Search and Rescue operations are suspended.

Please evacuate the area!

Repeat. All Search and Rescue is now suspended.

Archie's convening a COBRA in an hour.

I need to be here. So I need you there.

Are you sure?

I could stay here, join by video.

Can't have anyone saying I'm losing my grip.

At least I'll have my right hand on the wheel.

They'll get her out...

...and we'll get through this.

I've made it clear we're not leaving.

Do you remember taking that?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

She'd just come home from school.

You were about to go out canvassing for me when I first stood as an MP.

She didn't wanna go, so I made it a game.

I lied to her.

When I lost my job and... I was targeted and...

...you know, I told you that I felt like I was just collateral damage...

...it really made me understand just how long I'd been lying to myself.

Ellie's whole life... just collateral damage.

Rachel, that's not... I mean...

Come on. We have to keep � What? Support each other?

Yes, support each other! I HAVE supported you!

I have supported you since the day we met

and I have felt such pride and triumph in every victory.

But Ellie?

She never asked to be the Prime Minister's daughter.

Even her home is just an annex of your office.

That video that she made from the tunnel

when she talks about her profile, I mean...

...her profile?!

It's a cage that we put her in.

And the very last thing she tried to do

was smash her cup against the bars.

You cannot blame me more than I � I don't blame you. I blame myself.

I blame myself for all the years I have been your fucking accomplice.

How deep do you think we are?

Nate? Somewhere near hell.

(SIGHS)

Will it even reach the surface?

Fuck knows.

My head. You dizzy?

It's just dehydration. It's carbon dioxide. It builds up.

It's why... we're short of breath, getting shorter.

I'm sorry for what I said earlier. It's fine.

I've been called worse.

Anyway, if we both die,

then we'll really put Planet Resistance in the news.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

What?

Planet Re... The whole fucking thing is a monument to Henry's vanity.

A leaderless movement, right? How come he's the leader?

None of this is Henry's fault. Ellie, Henry's a salesman.

He's selling the idea of change.

And we're all just commodities, especially you.

The sabotage consisted of a basic device -

a timer and a handheld flare.

What we're dealing with is manifestly an act of terror,

and our response to this outrage needs to be swift and substantial.

Planet Resistance must be designated a proscribed organisation.

Counterterrorism has begun a full investigation

but at this stage, there's no conclusive evidence that Planet Resistance -

Sorry. Are we seriously entertaining the notion this was not Planet Resistance?

We're looking for proof that it WAS? This is absurd. They're a menace.

Even so. "Let's not jump to conclusions of liability"

was, I believe, how YOU put it the last time you were in this room.

Notwithstanding your loyalty to Robert,

I'd hoped you might be a bit more objective.

Fortunately... Robert �

along with most other people AND the legal system -

knows what that word means.

Well, since we're on the subject,

and given the elephant in the room is so big

you could sell tickets to a sodding safari...

how is this going to affect Robert's position?

If Ellie doesn't surv...

I mean, in the worst-case scenario - God forbid -

one assumes he'll take compassionate leave.

But if she IS rescued and it turns out she's had a hand in all this...

I expect the party and the cabinet

to offer their support and solidarity.

But if you'd care to raise your concerns with him, Minister,

I'm sure Robert would be more than happy

to have a full and frank exchange.

Jolly good to know.

As and when, of course, he's available.

(GENTLE KNOCK ON DOOR) Yeah?

What? Ah, those famous people skills(!)

I save them for PEOPLE. Will that be all?

I have an appointment.

Our right honourable friend Victoria Dalton. What's your take?

Robert promoted her while I was away.

It does have a whiff of "unconsulted" about it.

I'd have backed it.

Ruin Britannia assumed we'd roll over.

We needed to demonstrate renewed commitment to defence,

give the brief to a full-taloned hawk.

I would suggest we keep a hawk-like eye on her.

You think she's... what?

Plotting? Seems the type.

Ah, that terror of ambitious women.

I've been prowling the foetid jungle of these corridors

long enough to scent a fellow predator.

As you say...

...fellow. So what's your angle?

Keeping a stiletto out of Robert's back.

(CHUCKLES) Unless it's yours?

You know bloody well I've had opportunities for regicide

drop in my lap like ripe plums...

and I never boiled jam.

I don't trust Victoria Dalton.

And neither of us want Robert to go down on account of VD.

How is he? He's a survivor.

He'll get through this.

Yes, sir. Confirmed. We're at the triangulated zone.

(RADIO SIGNAL SQUEALS)

'This is Search and Rescue. Anyone receiving?'

Help...! Help us...! Help! Help! Help! Help us!

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

They've made contact. Ellie's alive.

They picked up a beacon. They're ready to patch you through.

In fact, they need you to speak to her.

Eleanor James. Yes?

'We've picked up significant chatter that Planet Resistance

was responsible -' Wait. With proof?

'No, but...' But what?

'We need to know there are no more explosives.

If it WAS Planet Resistance... you could ask Ellie �'

My daughter is not a terrorist! Is that understood?

'I am a hostage in this house.

There are police outside � some inside -

bars on every window.

After I was drugged and abducted from the United Kingdom

by my brother Prince Samir,

acting on behalf of our father King Zyan.'

I don't know how she smuggled this out,

but it's on every media outlet you could name.

Thankfully, most eyes are on Godley Common.

'I plead only for liberty.

I plead with the Government of the United Kingdom to help me.

I plead with them to value freedom in my country

more than trading weapons for our oil.

More than the Saladin arms deal.'

Well, that is a fat tonnage of shit en route vite to the fan.

(RADIO SIGNAL FIZZES)

'Ellie? Are you there? It's Mum and Dad.'

Dad? Dad!

Ellie, you're gonna be alright.

Mum, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

'Mum!' It's alright, sweetheart.

we're gonna get you out. We're gonna get you out.

Ellie, I... I need you to listen to me.

We're already working on a way to get you out.

But what I... What WE need to know, in order for everyone to be safe...

Did Planet Resistance plant the bomb?

What?! Ellie...

Bomb? What are you talking about?

Someone put an explosive in the machine.

That's what caused this. I need to know, are there any more?

We didn't! I... I don't understand what you're saying.

'No... please...'

I don't know anything about a fucking bomb!

Ellie, I need the truth.

Hundreds of people are dead. The village is destroyed.

They didn't do it!

I promise, Dad � Tell them there was only one.

There was only one device.

Tell them.

There was only... (SNIFFLES) ..one bomb.

Please, Dad. I can't breathe.

'(ELLIE SOBS) Dad...'

(RADIO SIGNAL FADES)

Ellie?

What's happened? Ellie?

Dad, please. Dad?

The signal's gone. What does that mean?

We're drawing up a plan to get her out.

Please do it. Yes, sir.

She's going to be OK, isn't she?!

Please!

(SIRENS WAIL)

RESCUER: Slow down, we're close.

This section of the tunnel already bored for the Ultraline.

We can smash through from above. Take a shortcut.

You... You knew...?

No, I didn't know.

Not for sure. Not till now.

I told you what he's like. I told... Polly not to trust him.

It was Henry?

He said he was planning something - escalation.

Something so they know we're serious.

Something they wouldn't forget. I said no. I tried to...

...talk him down and I thought I had.

I thought he was just talking about you.

He's fucked us.

All of us. He's fucked everything.

(MACHINERY THUDDING ABOVE)

They're coming. Get ready.

Rachel Sutherland for Will Clifford.

Yes, I'll hold.

Who are you calling? Ellie's going to need a good lawyer.

We'll get the best.

I don't even know what side of the courtroom you'll be sat on.

(TOOLS POUNDING ABOVE)

When we get out... Hey, listen to me. Listen to me.

We didn't kill anybody. Henry did.

OK? I'm not going down for him. OK.

Understand? OK.

OK.

What are you doing?!

These rocks fell on me.

I need a ward, not a cell.

You wanna do some good?

You tell Polly to forget me.

(TOOLS POUND ABOVE)

(WINCH WHIRS)

Keep coming up.

Almost there. Keep going.

(SIRENS WAIL)

Ellie! Ellie, they're gonna make sure you're alright.

We need to examine her... but we think she'll be fine.

Sir, Mrs Sutherland.

You're aware we're obligated to place Ellie under arrest.

However, given her circumstances,

and the nature of the security at Downing Street,

we'd be prepared to allow her to return home for the night,

after she's been checked over - make the arrest tomorrow.

Oh, God, thank you.

No.

The merest hint of preferential treatment...

the public, the media,

they're already primed to shred her all over again. I can't.

There cannot be any dispensation. Yes, sir.

It's one night, Rob! Come on.

It's all they need for a crucifixion.

Whose?

Rachel... Don't you dare pretend

that this is about her.

(OXYGEN HISSES)

(OXYGEN HISSES)

We can talk about this at home. I'm not coming home, Robert.
