Tom...Quinn. That's my real name.

The truth? I work
for the Government. Ooh(!) MI5.

Christine Dale. Have the CIA
anything for us? The point of these
meetings is to liaise. Informally?

My superiors are
so angry with you people, they're
in meltdown. Sod your superiors.

Run away with me...
..Egypt?

No way can I go to Egypt. Can't.
Can't? O-Or won't?
They'd never give me clearance.

You're dumping me.
Vicky, don't be ridiculous!

..What are you talking about?
I can't go on seeing you.
It's not working. I wanna finish it.

We cannot defend America...

..and our friends...

by hoping for the best.

We cannot put our faith in
the word of tyrants who solemnly
sign non-proliferation treaties

and then systematically break them.

If we wait
for threats to fully materialise,

we will have waited too long...

Who's Tom tonight? Steve. You think
ANYONE here is a trade delegate...
Diane? Are you kidding...Steve?

THEY SPEAK IN ITALIAN

I guess I'm just not pretty enough.
I could have told you that.

PAGERS BLEEP

Back in a minute.

What's up?
President Bush. Isn't he in Rio?

He was. Coming here early tomorrow.
Fishing trip?
High-level quickie with the PM.

Something major on the OPEC talks.
They wanna bash heads.
There'll be a rush on taxis.

Don't worry. Harry's outside.

Harry, you know why Bush is coming,
of course. The real reason.
Francois, what can I tell you?

It's a VERY special relationship.
Meeting your PM's a feint. It's to
meet the Libyans. Can't believe it.

No need to. Look at the diplomatic
crates from Washington. WE have.

"All diplomatic materials remain
the property of the representative
government at all times."

UN Resolution 3501. "More than half
of modern culture depends on what
one shouldn't read." Oscar Wilde.

We do not conduct espionage against
our closest ally. They pay US to
watch YOU. As if you didn't know.

Come on, Harry, we're all Europeans
now. Whose side are you on, anyway?
Ours.

'Andrews Tower, Air Force One.
Ready to copy... '

Hey, I thought you
said you'd be a minute!
Don't believe everything you hear.

'This is Air Force One -
wheels up and clear.'

What would Harry want
with a Thames House counsellor?
Shouting practice?

Advance teams land 2½ hours ahead
of Air Force One? Two C-5 Galaxy
cargo planes into Brize Norton.

That's a lot of cargo. You get a lot
of stuff when you're the President.

What's he bringing?

Bulletproof limo, stand-by limos,
decoy limos, private ambulance,
sundry Secret Service vehicles,

Marine One plus another helicopter
and something called a blue goose.

Presidential podium. Presumably he's
planning to transfer to the Embassy
by Marine One from Brize Norton.

Know who's meeting him? No. But I do
know what comes later. Coffee with
the US Ambassador, sightseeing,

lunch with the Queen, then Chequers
for talks. Elapsed time, 15 hours.

Bloody last-minute.
MOBILE RINGS
Maybe he booked it on the internet.

Yes? They're sending it here. What?

You said to tell Customs to open a
crate. I did. They looked. There's a
problem, so they're sending it here.

A Libyan problem? They're not
saying - which scares me.
Harry, they're ready for you.

..We must take the battle
to the enemy. Disrupt his plans

and confront the worst threats
before they emerge.

Ladies and gentlemen, the President
of the United States will reach
here in approximately seven hours,

and be here until 20.00 tomorrow.
We've outlined our security needs
in the folder resources here.

FLOTUS and VPOTUS will not visit.

MOBILE PHONE RINGS
POTUS requested the diversionary
trip at 18.00 GMT yesterday.

First you heard of it was probably
first we heard of it. So let's make
this as pleasurable as possible.

A command post has been established
at Grosvenor Square.

The POTUS advance team will, with
the White House Protective Research
Section, survey each site

to be visited by the President,
to determine manpower, equipment...

MOBILE RINGS
..and evacuation requirements.
We'd actually prefer to do that.

Your assistance in these matters is
a vital part of our operation. We
thank you for coming this evening.

People, please note on page eight.
Bagpipe and the PRS will initiate a
full complement of POTUS SA1s on CP

from the Blacktop Unit at Grosvenor
by the time we get a wheels-down
from Cowpuncher at the Basecamp LZ.

In English, please. A full
US Secret Service team will meet
the President at Brize Norton.

We'd like MI5 close-protection
teams on perimeter security
for the visit's duration.

MOBILE RINGS
But not close to the President.

Well, no. Why not?
That's OUR job. It's also our job.

Not in this case. MI5 oversees
the protection of the PM, Queen and
visiting dignitaries. Not this one.

Diplomatic protocol states that
the host Government provides 95% of
protection for Presidential visits.

Not this President. Not this visit.
Vaclav Havel let us do it our way
in Prague. We'll do it our way now.

That means adherence
to US close-protection protocol -

every rumour to be treated as fact
until neutralised, every target a
potential assassin till dealt with.

We'd like paranoia to be the norm
until our CIC is safely in the sky.

I'm sure you can understand that in
the current climate. Once he's gone

any residual distrust
will be your problem.
How kind of you to point it out(!)

Customs Liaison at Heathrow
said to bring it up here.

I don't know anything about it.
They're diplomatic crates, right?

They come every day from Washington
to the US Embassy. Why we were told
to open THIS one, God only knows.

This is going bye-bye right now.
Follow me, please.

Come on!

Sam! Tom wants us to start
police briefings as soon as...

Whoa. Wait, wait! Isn't that...?
Yeah. So shut up and help.
No problem.

Sorry about the "shut up".
No problem.

EVERY Presidential visit has,
since Kennedy, involved
the assembly of the "trip file".

In it is every contact, threat
and possible target and concern
to the safety of the President

in any place he passes through.
The last official POTUS visit
to the UK was two years ago.

We do try to keep up to speed
on individuals, but we'll need
access to all your files

to confirm our information is up
to date. OK, why don't you give us
your information to cross-reference?

We'll do it ourselves, if that's
OK. So you want unsupervised access
to our Registry Files? Yeah.

Or perhaps you'd prefer
the President to get a bullet
in the brain on your watch?

..I understand how you feel, Zoe,
I do - but these interviews
are designed for you -

to blow off steam, contribute
constructive criticism... "Of our
workflow and office environment."

I read the memo. Good! Miranda,
to be honest, we're a bit busy.

This American bloke - apparently,
lots of people want to kill him(!)

..And having sessions under live
operations facilitates honesty.
Don't worry about time, Zoe,

I'm here for you day or night.
Mir... You or Danny in the reading
room. Please. Soon as you can.

What's wrong? Tell you later.
It's really happening, then? Yup.

She knows we all hide from
her the rest of the year, right?
So why does she do it?

Cos Personnel send her out once a
year - a psychological sniper unit
to pick us off one by one.

Like guerilla warfare! I don't go
to the fifth floor any more in case
anyone thinks I'm going to see her.

Like you WOULD knock on the door of
an MI5 staff psychologist and say "I
can't hack it." Barry Mitchell did.

Who's Barry Mitchell? Exactly.
Hold on... Oh, very trusting(!)

I'll be heads. I wanted heads.
OK - tails.

Er, say that again.
We opened it up...

Got that.
..started looking...

Still with you.
..just got started, when...

Someone spilled their tea into it.

That is correct.

..Yeah. That was the bit
I had some problems with.

MOBILE RINGS

Troy, I'll see you downstairs
in a minute.

One of your minutes? He'll be there
all night. Very funny, Tom.
That's me. Tactful, too.

Our countries have a tradition of
working together. I see no reason

why we can't be standard bearers
for that for 24 hours. CIA World
Factbook, Christine. Written by you,

Britain's entry. "Slightly smaller
than Oregon." That's what we are to
you - slightly smaller than Oregon.

Don't think you can order us around.
Don't believe it for a second. He's
our President. It's our country.

How much bloody tea
did you spill in here?!

It was an Arsenal centenary mug,
so, you know...quite a lot.

It wasn't you, was it? No, I drink
coffee. I think it was Earl Grey. I
don't care what bloody KIND it was.

They can bleach it, or replicate
them. Harry's asked me to trawl
through for a Libyan link.

Before the Americans notice(?)
Yeah.
We've kept a few crates back.

We can say there's been a batch
delayed. Fine. Just keep tea
away from all of them.

AND coffee AND sodding Ribena. ..How
long till the Americans realise?

Depends. With this visit,
we might get away with 18 hours.
Maybe less...maybe more.

Clean and meadow fresh by morning.
You have my word.

CLOCK TICKS

Be as open and candid as you like.

Anything at all.

Anything or anyone
you feel needs scrutiny...

..just let rip. This is YOUR time.

It's all good, actually.

Good? Yep. Everything is great.

Fantastic.

Perhaps if I asked you
a few specific questions...

What do you think of the Service's
public access line, for example?

What's that? Freephone number
for the public to call in with
tipoffs about terrorist threats.

Oh, that.
We call it the weirdo line.

I see.

Yeah, well...

When I say...

Well, what I meant...
SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

Tom. You're not going to give her
access to the Registry, are you?
Ministerial vetting files?

It's a show of trust on our side.

I'll take the juicy stuff out.
Remember, Tom,
this visit has become a symbol.

The PM's keen that we look
equal partners with the Americans.

Christine gets the files and we get
very visible close-protection duty.

We have a small window of time
while the CIA finalise their prep.

We spend the duration on the Grid,
so I'll have someone get changes of
clothes. Black-tie's a bit formal.

I'll go myself, if that's OK.

How about Zoe? Do you have any
comments about working with her?

H-How d'you mean?

It can mean
what you like it to mean.

Ah, finally! Vicky. What's going
on? I've been calling you.

About 50 times. Maybe if you phoned
back once or twice, I wouldn't have
to call so much. This has to stop.

You've already made that clear. The
calling, it has to stop right now.

So clinical, Tom. You'd make a good
surgeon. Vicky, I'm warning you...

Stop trying to sound angry, Tom.
You're not angry - you're guilty.

You're ashamed at how you treated
me, and who - sorry, Machine Man,
that should be WHAT you've become.

Tom the Terminator.
Tom the See-Through Spook.

Don't call again, OK? Just don't.

Vicky? I can't wait to see
your face when you find out.

Find out what?

HORN BEEPS
Find out WHAT?!

So how was it? How was what? Your
session with Inspector Freud.

Oh. Fine.

Thanks.

What, that's it? You want more?

I dunno - good, bad, indifferent?
Friendly?

Deeply antagonistic?
Or just traditionally irritating?
Just fine.

Do you want me to write it all down
for you in detail? No.

Cos I will, if you want.
No, no - it's fine.

Exactly.

MOBILE RINGS

Hello...?

Hello?

Tom.

Hey, Tom.

Finally!

It is you, isn't it?

Sorry, I don't know you.
Obviously.

But, look,
time is money and all that.

Are you working or what, Tom?

I'm dialling 999.

Tom Quinn.

It's definitely you.

So don't try and deny it.

"On Her Majesty's Sexy Service."

So, are you working?

Where did you find this? You're
hurting me! Where did you find it?

Where did you find this?!
Usual place -

in a bloody phone box, mate!
Where'd you think? A phone box?
Outside The Fire Island Club.

And a bunch in the loos. Saturation
advertising, if you ask me.

You're wallpapered around that
place. Get away from me, go! Go!

PHONE RINGS

Yeah?
MAN: Hello, gorgeous.

'Hi, this is Vicky.
Please leave a message....'

MOBILE RINGS

What? Tom? Where are you?
HOUSE PHONE RINGS
Zoe. Sorry, two seconds...

I need you to do something for me...

Thamesider, Air Force One.
ETA as per flight plan.

Air Force One, this is Blacktop.
Copy your scheduled landing,
Great Britan. Copy that.

All changed, including your home
phone. There's a guy at your door.

What happened?
Routine security checkup. At 1 am?

No-one's letting us near the files,
Tom! You get access, we get
a small close-protection presence.

Six officers alongside your US
personnel. Four at most. Five. Fine.

They'd better wear Secret Service
lapel pins or chance getting shot.

Did you get my page?
Yeah, I'll try my best.
OK. It's important.

Um, meeting room.

Someone in Herefordshire
has intercepted the Air Force One
call-sign from Brize Norton.

How? These blokes are hobbyists,
spend their lives searching for
military frequencies. He got lucky.

Some guy in a parka with ham radio
knows Cowpuncher's in the air. So?

It has a ripple effect. Spotty man
talks to his spotty friends who
put things up on the World Wide Web.

for everyone to see. GCHQ's done
a scan of UK message boards.

Seven verbal threats to the safety
of the President in just 30 minutes.

We should change the LZ.
The what?
Landing zone. No, Troy,

change the route.
- Bounce Nighthawk to Bamboo.
- What's the landing zone?

PHONE RINGS
Embassy heli-pad.
Can't he just SAY it? Er, coffee?

Tea? Or tea? ..Where's Sam?

No idea.
It's OK, I'll just...go get her.
We need to think about this.

Christine, the landing zone's
secure. In private, please. The
President lands in three hours.

I need backgrounds on motorcade
police, Palace workers AND butlers.
And Chequers staff. We've done it.

Again, please. And be at the Palace
by three for the walk-through.

Tea?!

Tea.

Bad?

Bad.

Libya?
Nothing yet.

'..Air Force One inbound, looking
for descent in two-zero minutes...'

CLOCK TICKS

Just be as open and as candid
as you like.

Don't hold back. You know, we've
had useful criticisms already.
Really(?) Absolutely.

And not just about procedure.
You CAN blow off about colleagues,
if you like.

Colleagues?

Danny, for example. He was...

exceptionally candid about you.

For example.

Since news leaked,
we have received...

Two threats to London's water supply

and one to the reservoir supplying
Chequers, five warnings of civil
disobedience on motorcade routes,

calls to protest by TWO Palestinian
groups, three anti-death-penalty
and four anti-globalisation bodies.

That seems a bit more "clear and
present" than ham radio operators.

It's not them I'm concerned about,
it's people having conversations
about my President's travel plans.

You think someone'll start taking
potshots at any Sikorsky or Sea King

flying over Cricklewood?!
A lunatic with flight plan details
is a much greater threat to my CIC

than a protest in Hyde Park.
Anbody with a microlight,
a glider, a bottle rocket

can get it into the path of MX1 and
create hell over North West London.

Why are you being like this?
You've been going for the jugular
ever since this thing kicked off.

Tom. It's my first big visit in
charge. I'm under the microscope.

Those guys are waiting for me to
screw up. I won't give them that
pleasure. So it would really help

if you at least appear to work with
me, not against me. What d'you say?

Fine. OK.

OK, that one there.
I want Kittyhawk over there.

Once again - Kittyhawk is US Secret
Service code for Queen Elizabeth
II. Please pay attention. ..So Tom,

dealing with this route change...
What do you need? A road transfer
to Halton, I need a dummy chopper

from Brize Norton, the President
on Marine One en route to Blacktop
on schedule, free from harm.

Can you help with that, Tom? We'll
help in any way we can. Thank you.
..OK. Who's Queen? And Prez?

Let's get it over with. Do you want
this done quickly or do you want it
done right? As quickly as possible.

So how was your interview? Well, not
as good as yours, by all accounts.
So she told you? ..So it's true?

Well, she surprised me with the
question and it just...came out.

You want me to lie? No, Danny, God
forbid(!) She asked me a question,
I answered it honestly.

Well, so did I, OK?
Well, there you go. OK. 12.21 -

motorcade arrives at away point
one. 12.25... The Queen usually
meets guests in the courtyard.

So what're they doing over there?
You PUT us here.

OK. George - outside.
You, QE2, drop the attitude
and move your ass.

MOBILE RINGS

Yep.

'Got them. Shredded,
burnt, shredded again.'
OK.

'Tower this is Air Force One. We are
wheels-down and clear. Roger,
Air Force One. Welcome to the UK.'

Cowpuncher is wheels down.
Repeat, Cowpuncher is wheels down.
Stand by, ground teams.

Absolutely not!
I don't see why it's a problem!

You GOT a rundown of their vetting.
You can't demand additional checks
on individual officers. Why not?

Because you can't!
We're concerned. His background.
He's a Muslim.

We didn't used to worry about that.
We now stringently check on anyone
within 20 yards of the President.

You start checking on Muslim PCs,
you'll alienate a lot of people!
If it's Federal Immigration policy,

and it is, then it is Secret
Service vetting policy. And it is.

..Air Force One landed amidst
high security. The President's
brief visit, many believe,

is to consolidate
international opinion
on US pre-emptive strike policy.

Despite pubic misgivings, Tony Blair
has also been vocal in support...

Apart from quests for glory
from Richard Reid shoe-bomber types,

our info is that the CIA trip list
has six glaring omissions. It comes
down to how we define a threat.

So what do the CIA want us to do?
Nothing, to be honest. Most of 'em
are either in the UK permanently

doing arms deals or tooling up for
private wars. There's no history of
high-level political assassination,

no belief systems that'd suggest a
grudge against UK or US policy. So
everything would appear shipshape.

I was hoping for some low-grade
surveillance. Even if Christine does
not think they warrant attention.

Fine. I'll get the photos to Ruth.
OK. I'll be at Horseguards. Why?

We're doing a walkthrough
on the sightseeing phase.

If this trip's so important,
why's the President spending
the morning sightseeing?

I presume whatever problem existed
with the crate has disappeared?
Please say yes. Yes.

I just got a call from the Met.
I can't believe you've agreed.

It's either that or remove DC Khan.
The US Ambassador took it up.

She stirs up a race relations row
then she starts messing

with royal protocol. She's going to
drive us up the wall, Harry. Who is?

Oh... Appraisal time, huh?

Who's getting the boot?

Oh, my!

This is Blacktop. Stagecoach will
move in 30. Tracer and Halfback
in position.

Roger that. Phase Two in motion.
Prepping Phase Three.

ETA at Brenda's Place 1205. Standing
by for Horseguards walkthrough.

Brenda's Place? Buckingham Palace.

I'm not worried about snipers,
it's a closed limo.

Let's free up Blue team. I want
rooftop detail covering the shoots.

Anyone so much as throws a turnip,
they'll be put in the cage.

And the phone calls?

What phone calls? The ones you've
been getting on your cell phone
for the past twelve hours.

None of your business. You changed
your number. That's interference.

If something's interfering with
my operation, it's my business.

There is no interference.

And it's not your operation.

We have two issues. One - there's
chatter at the Libyan embassy.

What kind of chatter? Euphemisms
for America being used,

vehicles trying to lose their
tails - nothing this big since '84.

Any clue? It's disguised as
diplomatic traffic. I don't like it.

Also a deal memo between
the US and Libya.

Taking responsibility for Lockerbie,
paying $7 billion in reparations -

the Americans end sanctions and
remove them from the Axis of Evil.

No reparation for UK victims? None.

What do we have on the Libyans
at the moment?

I'll ask Sam to fish it out.

Walkthrough time. Come on, Sparky.

My vetting request on the Muslim
officer caused some ripples. Yes.

Sorry. I'm just protecting
my President. Of course.

Any idea who's following us?

I knew it! I sodding well knew
you were two-timing me!

Who are you? Excuse me? I'm your
worst nightmare - an ex-girlfriend
with bigger tits than you.

Vicky, you're putting people
in danger, unless you go.

It's some great big spy bonanza,
is it? He's a spy you know.
Tom Quinn is a SPOOK!

The flyers - how many are there?
The look on your face!

I don't know who you are but Bob
and I were married six years ago.

If you're on a bad drug trip,
check yourself into rehab. No-one
dumps ME like a sack of shit

and gets away
without PAYING FOR IT!

Anything at all.

Anything or anyone that you feel
needs scrutiny. Just let rip.

What's everyone else been saying?
Lots of interesting things.

Sorry... Ruth, GCHQ said
you'd better have a look at this.

We're in the middle of a session...
Yes, we ARE in the middle!

Ex-girlfriend, huh?

Wanna talk about it?

You must be a great lay.

We better get back. You better start
telling me exactly what's going on.

We're getting a fix on 15 security
threats and planning raids on 10.

We have phone taps going haywire.
Get as much background as you can.

It's these Americans. Hypochondriacs
the lot of them. So did you hear?

What? Someone's getting the sack.

It's under control. It's a career
defining moment. If the wrong
person sees those pictures of you,

you'll never go out in the field
again. You could lose your job!

Who else knows? No-one.
You just tore them down yourself.

No, I had some help, that's all.
One person.

Now you've got two. Keep out of it!

You can't deal with this on
your own. Christine. Are you going
to wait till she does it again?

I have to clear it with Harry
before I do anything!

Are you kidding?
You've seen what she's capable of.

We have to act before she does it
again. Wait a second!

That woman is jeopardising this
operation. This is a CIA matter.

We will not hesitate to act alone.

You could have stood up for me.
When?

At Brenda's. Where? The palace.

You were Queen,
you could stand up for yourself.
No, I was the QE2, apparently.

You should have sounded your horn.
This isn't funny.

Tell me about it.
You are being so strange...

Can you blame me? I don't see
how we're expected to work with all
this hanging over our heads. What?

Haven't you heard? Heard what?

Are you telling me you haven't
heard? Yes. HEARD WHAT? Danny?

Harry...

Latest threat assessment. Thanks.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't
bad mouth projects in office time.

People who commissioned them
might get upset. Sorry?

Danny's told me all about it. The
weirdo line? I expect more of you.

Tracer now en route to Grosvenor.

Still have 40 minutes
in this phase, over. Say again.

Tracer in motion. Schedule change.
En route to Grosvenor.

Since when is that on the schedule?

Blacktop, since when
is that on the schedule, over?

This is an unauthorized change.
Please advise immediately!

Hey, Ruth,
how long's Sam been in there?

Too bloody long.
Did she say anything to you? No.

Why, did she say anything to you?
Well, no.

Look, can I ask you something?
Depends.

What the hell is going on? Harry
just gave me the third degree.

Someone's getting the sack.

I'll see you there. ..I gotta make
a quick stop. You got a minute?

And the water cooler's too hot.
And the pod doors open too slow.

I'm not sure about the usefulness
in the Grid's design, either.

If you're at the photocopier and
you need to scan in a quick-mail...

Can you just...slow down...
a second...?

Quick-mail.

I presumed a new Lockerbie deal
would be in consultation with us.

It might be just a hypothetical.
The President's off-schedule.

There's subterfuge going on. There
might be a logical explanation.

Well, there's a perfectly illogical
woman who could clarify that.

Unless she's off schedule, too...

Chest pains. Straight to Resus.

I'll be right there.

What's going on? Vicky,
if you could just come this way.

What the hell's going on? Don't
worry about it. What are you doing?

If there was an arrangement to meet
the Libyans it was a hasty one.

Maybe it was the goal all along. The
French insinuated it was likely.

It explains the sightseeing tour.

To cover the meeting preparations.

Who cares if they meet? The major
state sponsors of terrorism

are Iran, Iraq, North Korea,
Sudan, Syria, Cuba, Libya.

Who wants off that list
and out of the Arab League? Libya.

And who can't be seen negotiating
with an Axis of Evil nation?
The United States of America.

What'll they talk about? Lockerbie.

They could close a deal without us.

You know the American mind, Tom.
Only one person who can tell us.

Try her again.

You need a warrant
for this and you KNOW IT!

I'm in the middle of something.
Can I call you back?

Who are you? Tear this place apart.

What? Stop! What you are doing?

Stop it! What are you doing?

Please, stop it!

Please. You like this book?
That's not mine...

Makes good reading, does it?

Stop!

Please!

What the hell are you doing?

This is my stuff! This is my room!

Stop it! Did you know writing
false prescriptions will get you
struck off the doctor's register?

That's not mine!
You just put that there.

Can you stop this? You're in a lot
of trouble. This is all a mistake.

You're jeopardising the security of
the US president. We'll stop that.

Me? You've already put the security
of this man in serious danger...

I'm a doctor. I save lives.
I have nothing to do with this...

If you want to continue saving
lives - including your own -
leave this man alone. Understand?

I understand.

You're on vacation for a few days.

Leave town. If you contact this man
or even mention his name in
conversation, we will find out -

and all this will come
tumbling down on your head.

Have a nice day.

Quite a session. Sorry? I was just
saying you were in there for ages.

Was I? Guess I was. Everything
all right? In what sense? In there.

Fine. She's a great listener.
Got a lot of stuff off my chest.

I think it's a brilliant idea,
don't you? Yeah. Absolutely.

Finally getting a chance to say
what you really think about things.

What were your things?
What did I talk to her about?

Generally. Generally? Doesn't
matter. You've confused me now.

Don't worry about it. Just heard...

Sorry, was I interrupting
something? What's up?

The President's gone walkabout.

The Libyan Embassy lines went mad
when your president went off-piste.

To keep abreast of threats
we need some honesty.

Today is Ashley's 15th birthday.
Ashley's our ambassador's daughter.

The president decided
at Horseguards to get her a present
and to deliver it.

He cut the tour short and sent an
aide to Harrods for a video game.

The President was invited
to try the game, which he did -

hence the detour. That is why
we are 15 minutes behind schedule.

Keeping Her Majesty waiting.
I thought a Lady did that for her.

By the way, Tom, met a friend
of yours earlier. She's
leaving the country for a while.

I thought you might like to know.
Bye!

She's lying. No surprises there.

At 1pm today two agents
from the US Secret Service

walked into an A&E unit to kidnap
one of its medical registrars.

I'm presuming there was
a good reason for this, correct?

An immediate need
to remove a liability?

Operationally, I give you free
rein. I have and do willingly,

but consult with ME before acting
pre-emptively on a personal matter.

It stopped being a personal matter.
We're entering the final phase.

The president moves again at 1600,
I've got a pointless HR person here

and a viper's nest of paranoia on
the Grid. I need your 100% focus.

Roger that.
Stagecoach returning to Blacktop.
Marine One airborne in ten.

Marine One is airborne.
Repeat Marine One is airborne.

En route to Backline.

Climate change and the world economy
will also be on the agenda

in addition to Mr Bush's military
policy of pre-emptive strikes.

Protestors started gathering
a few minutes ago.

REPORTER:
Hundreds arrived here when news of
the president's itinerary leaked.

Many are here to make a stand
against American Foreign Policy.

Their intention is to be heard.

Sources have denied that Chequers
is on the President's itinerary

but security surrounding this visit
is the strongest in living memory.

Double security and brief forces to
take orders from Chequers Control.

Danny, join Tom at Chequers. What's
outstanding on the Trip List? We
need a team to watch incoming pipes.

We're a clean sweep on vetting staff
and medics. Do I just stay here?

For now.

What's that?
What we have over the Libyans.

ETA 30 seconds. Confirm
entry areas clear and secure.

Copy that. Area A secure.

Copy. Area B secure.

Area C secure.

Tom. Danny. Sitrep? Floors one and
two are cleared. Teams in place.

What about the roof? Snipers have
270 sight on all compass points.

What's that noise?
I'm in the kitchen.
Leave the cooking to the chefs.

Don't worry. I won't. All clear.
Kitchens are clear.

This is Blacktop Control, we have a
wheels down in ten, I need sitreps.

All floors clear. Helipad prepared,
and armed protection standing by.

Marine One landing,
Principle secure. Wheels down.

PM arriving south entrance.

That was Danny.
Teams are in position.

PILOT: 'Control, unidentified
contact entering restricted zone.'

Please clarify.

Bubka was on our surveillance.
Ex-Moscow Mafia, now lives here.
One of our Trip List long shots.

The others are arms dealers.
Some hawk medical equipment.

I see this is a matter for
research but... This was taken
yesterday, 10 miles from Chequers.

What equipment?
Radiotherapy machines.

They hold enough Cobalt 60 to take
out Oxford Street on a sunny day.

Your implication here is...
Dirty bomb.

We have a microlight on a routing
to Chequers. Have you got a visual?

Snipers have just picked it out. How
far away is it? Three, four miles.

Any local aerodromes? Chiltern
and Horwood. Does it have a radio?

Maybe. Aerodrome say he's not
responding. They're to keep trying!

I need air cover NOW. There are
two Harriers on standby.

Tell Master Control
to launch the Qs.

Sniper detail, can you get a shot?
I can have a shot in ten.

Engage on my signal. Whoa!

You speak to me. I speak to him.
That is how it's going to work.

You want this on your head?
It's a microlight. Yeah, Tom.
Like I said - a microlight.

PILOT:
'Warrenmore, this is Q1 on task,
request vectors, ready to copy.'

You must assume!
If it's aiming straight here...
We can't shoot it down.

We have to... Not if it's carrying
nuclear material... .

Who mentioned nuclear material?!
We have nothing credible on that
score but... Put the speaker on.

It's possible - a hitman sourcing
the raw material for a dirty bomb.

We're adding two and two to get 13!
It's absolutely ludicrous!

How ludicrous did crashing a plane
into a building sound in 2001?

Check local wind conditions -
he could just be blown across.

WHAT NUCLEAR MATERIAL?

A source claims there may be
radioactive material near Chequers.

On its own? In a restaurant?

A hitman was seen attempting to
acquire some. I stress - attempting.

Great! They're still verifying
the ID of the microlight pilot.

- Call the Met.
- 'This is Warrenmore. Qs are
airborne, 90 seconds to target.'

'This is Q1. Shall we engage? Over.'

No!

'Affirmative, Q1, engage on visual.
Do you have a position?'

- Do not engage target
till we confirm.
- 'Cut the chatter.'

Who called this in?
The US Protective Research Section,

the CIA and the US Federal
Government has advised
the Royal Air Force to engage.

You shoot that out of the sky
with a sidewinder missile

and hot metal and rocket fuel
falls on hundreds of people.

We need more information!
This is all we have.

An aircraft is on a collision
course with this building.

This building houses the US
president and your Prime Minister.
It cannot get any closer!

You went over my head! We shoot it
now, we mobilise chem-bio units.

There's a strong following wind
that could be blowing him in.

'This is Q1. 20 seconds to target.'

'Do you have a visual?'

'Q1 on station, negative visual
contact, request vectors.'

'Come left One, Nine, Zero degrees.
Target your nose two miles.'

'Roger. Merging 15 seconds.'

Songbird is turning.
Target is turning. Is he turning?

Is he turning?
Oh, yeah - he's turning.

'Warrenmore, shall we engage? Over.'

Tom?

Negative. Will confirm
with Air Defence Control.
Target is no longer a threat.

'Q1 Warrenmore - abort!
Repeat - abort.'

'Q1, Q2 aborting.'

Well, like she said -

paranoia.

Thamesider, this is Air Force One.
Air Force One has cleared the tower.

Thank you, Thamesider.
The President is safely in the air.

Microlight pilot was a Mr Smith.
Had a defective radio.

- And defective head. Dmitri Bubka?
- Customs are working on that one.

A project for tomorrow perhaps.

Tom, am I getting the sack? Danny?

I'd prefer to hear it now.
Of course you're not.

You would tell me, wouldn't you?

Danny you're not getting
the bloody sack, all right?

Great. Ruth said she overheard Harry
talking of losing someone... And...

Danny is not getting the sack!

Great.

Right. Suits me.

NO-ONE IS GETTING THE SACK!

Sorry.

Yeah, me too.

Thank you for everything.
No problem.

You haven't thanked me yet.
I was just about to.

I did you a big favour.
Consider it known. Now you can
do one for me. What's that?

(We want something back.)

We've been waiting for someone
to come and collect it.

Admin error, huh? Uh-huh.

It happens.

The French tipped us off -
which made us suspicious

because the French
never ever do us any favours.

We presumed they wanted to drive a
wedge between the UK and the USA.

Oh, no! That could never happen.
Absolutely.

So that rumour must be false, then.

What rumour?
That nasty, Libyan sort of rumour.

If there's anything going on

between us and the Libyans in the
UK, you'll be the first to know.

Of course. Same to you!
PHONE RINGS

Yup...Tom.

Miranda for you?

Tom, thank you.

Well, I have a litany of comments
here - mainly directed at you.

Brilliant.

Doesn't it worry you that your
staff are overworked and paranoid?

No.

This is a steam valve exercise.
That's what that is - steam.

I'm not worried. Is that right? Yes.

Comments about me are NOTHING
compared to what's been said
about YOU.

This was a shocking exercise.

I'm appalled that mind games were
condoned at such a stressful time.

Personnel wanted a psychological
topography of the department

to find a theoretical weak link.
And you found...? There aren't any.

I beg to differ. I think I'm looking
at the weakest link right now.

We will have to take this offer
to the British who may have a view.

Thank the Libyans.
The sound quality is superb.

You shall know the truth
and the truth shall set you free.

REPORTER:
The President left on Air Force One
this evening after his short visit.

Despite threats to his security,
the visit passed without incident.

MI5 Officers were also included in
all their security arrangements

to ensure that his trip to the UK...

MOBILE RINGS

So here's my question -

whatever happened to the
"nee naw" sound? It was cute.

Then one day you just replaced
all your emergency service sirens
with American ones.

Before you know it you'll have
guns for sale in Marks & Spencer.

Thanks for your concern.
You're still up.

So are you. I can never sleep
after an operation.

Me, neither. You wanna come over
and meet my friend Jim?

You were heavy-handed.

She put your life in danger, Tom.

She put the president's life
in danger.

I'm empty.

Libya.

Don't make me wrestle you for it.
I don't want to embarrass you.

So you lied.

What else did you expect?
The truth?

Is this a loss of faith, Tom?

Of course not.

Dostoevsky - Russian writer guy.
Wrote a book about a man
who told the truth all the time.

Know what he called it? The Idiot.

You didn't wrestle me
for it very much, did you?

What do you know that I don't?

Lots of things.

BLAIR:
An example of the strength of the
relationship between our countries.

It is a strong relationship.

A random burglar
wouldn't know where to start!

What else was in the case, Harry?

We're tasked to steal firestorm
before the French get hold of it.

I didn't think working
with the French was our thing.
You're lying! Prove it!

Where's the case? What?

Not only terrorists manipulate
youth. This isn't a game!

Let me see
my lawyer, government man.

The codes are gone.
I have to come clean.
