To new beginnings.

And to our family, if and when.

If and when.

Since 9:47pm
we've had a complete blackout.

Anyone trying to get in
falls instantly unconscious.

Sir, London's sent someone.

I have a daughter.
She's home on her own.

She has health issues.

Mum, where are you?

I need you!

Canter on.

Nice. Doing well.

Whoa!

Hey!

Keep the knees in.
Yeah? Tell him you're there.

I'm trying!
Are you all right, Ellie?

Ellie!

I love you.

Yeah, it's me.
I'm on my way there now.

Arrange a meeting
for tomorrow at 2pm.

Let London know.

It was a freak event
that took the nation by surprise.

But as the weeks pass, the small

finds itself at last able to return
to some semblance of normality.

The huge power surge...

I love you.

Jodie.

What are you doing here?

It's a police matter.

Is it about that Twix
I stole from Smith's?

It was 20 years ago
and I've eaten it.

It's not about the Twix.

Well, you'd better come in, then.

Look, how long
is this going to take?

Because Steve's coming round
and I need to tidy up and cook.

Steve?

Yeah, we're giving it another go.
Do you want tea?

Why are you giving it another go?

None of your business.

You were a real bastard to me,
after the funeral.

I was in grief too.
Maybe you didn't notice.

Something's happened.

To do with May 6th.

I'm done talking about that night.

Fucking police interviews,
journalists everywhere.

I just want to live my life.

Why are you back with Steve?
Any particular reason?

What are you talking about?

You know what I'm talking about.

How the fuck do you know about that?

Jodie, I need you to call Steve.

You need to cancel tonight
and we need to talk.

Because this is not
what you think it is.

Are you ready yet?
Coming!

Yeah.

Sorry. Had to send the edit
on Laura's novel.

Thanks for doing this.

Are you kidding?
I wouldn't miss this for the world.

Take a seat.

We have an appointment at 2pm.

About our pregnancy.

Yes, of course.
Um... Go through to D Wing.

Ward 300.

Oh, ignore the signs about
rebuilding.

Are you sure this is right?

It's what she said.

Come on, we're late.
All right.

You OK?
Mm.

Mr Clyde, listen to your girlfriend.

This is not the same
as it was in London.

I can feel life growing inside me.

Oh, name, please?

Zoe Moran. We have an appointment
with obstetrics at 2pm.

And this is your partner?
Yeah, yeah.

We are in the right place,
aren't we?

Yes. Just go on through.

What is this?

Please, come in. Take a seat.

Good afternoon, everyone.

My name is Dr Colin McAfferty.

And I am a senior advisor

to the government's
Medical Response Council.

And the reason
that you're here today

is that DCI Haynes and I need
to talk to you about what happened

on the night of Friday May 6th.

We asked you here today, along with
a partner or someone that you trust.

Because, as you will recall, our
medical teams took extensive tests

from every victim
of the Midwich blackout.

Our intention was to check that there
were no ongoing health concerns.

And I'm happy to say
that there weren't.

But what the tests did show

is that something occurred
that night.

It appears that
every woman of child-bearing age

who was in the zone...

it seems that
you've all fallen pregnant.

We see no sign as yet that your
foetus is anything other than normal.

But how this happened,
we... we do not yet know.

What do you mean, you don't know?

So you're saying it's...
What are you saying?

If I could just finish.
Hold on a second.

Are you implying we're
all pregnant for the same reason?

Um... We can't say anything with
any medical certainty at this time.

We will be conducting more tests
after the meeting.

But you are saying something.

You're making assumptions -
about my body.

Is this a joke?

It's not a joke.
Do you want me to go in?

No. The local touch is better.

This was always going to be the
tricky bit.

We're therefore
drawn to date of conception

to the night of the blackout.

There must be some mistake.
There's no mistake.

Excuse me,
this is nothing to do with us.

Please sit down.
You can't tell us what to do.

Well, I'm afraid I can.

I know that this is a shock.

But it is vitally important

that what has happened to you
does not go outside of this room.

For this reason,
we've brought you here together

and before anything else happens,

everyone here
must sign the Official Secrets Act.

What?

The blackout event
has been classified

a national red level threat.

It could be the result
of a hostile attack

from a foreign or a domestic agent.

Do you mean terrorism?

I'm pregnant.
How can that be a hostile act?

Some external force,
as yet unidentified,

caused a major power cut that night.

And may have also
caused you all to conceive.

What about the power surge?

There was a lightning strike.
You lied to us.

Let's just stay calm.
Was there a lightning strike or not?

Well, was there?

Please. Please sit down.

I went to my GP
and he told me my baby was normal.

Is that a camera?

I asked you a question.
Is that a camera?

Yeah.

Who's watching us?

Answer the question.

The police have been assigned
temporary extrajudicial powers

by the Home Secretary.

They're filming us!

Can they do that?
No, they fucking can't!

Calm down, Curtis.
Don't tell me what to do!

Can you let us out that door now,
please?

You, with me.

What are you talking about?

I'm calling a lawyer.

My phone's not working.

Nor mine.

Have you blocked our phones?
What is going on?!

They've blocked our phones.
What?!

Yeah. Check your phone.
There's no signal.

You can't do that. Rachel,
get your things. We're going.

Sam, we're going too. Sorry, but
nobody leaves until this is done.

Where did they come from?
Sit down.

Jesus Christ. What is this? Just let
us out of here. Curtis, sit down.

Could you ask the soldiers
to get away from the door?

I have a feeling
they're not very helpful.

I... I don't even know
who the hell you are.

I'm Susannah Zellaby.

I know Rachel.

It's true. Sit down.

I'm a... a family therapist
here in the town.

I'm also the mother of Cassie here,
who was in the zone that night.

Five days ago, Cassie found out
that she was pregnant.

She swore to me she had no idea
how it had happened.

And I didn't believe her.

Since then, a few women have
come to me with similar concerns.

And it was then I started to wonder
if something strange had happened.

I'll tell you what's happened.

My... my partner and I made love
that night in my new home.

And as a result
we have a baby coming.

And this is nothing to do with it.

Zoe, yes?
Yeah.

Zoe, I would dearly love that
to be the case.

But if every woman in this room
is pregnant,

regardless of their sexual
orientation, sexual experience -

That's not my problem.
Sam, let's go.

Uh... I think most of you know me.
I'm hard to miss.

But for those that don't,
I'm Mary-Ann.

I work at Case
estate agents on the High Street.

I asked my friend Sarah
to come with me today

because I was scared
to come on my own.

I'm pregnant and I haven't
had sex with a man for...years.

That can't be true.
Trust me.

What about artificial -
No.

I don't believe you.
That's not helpful.

It's all right, Sarah.

You know, it may not make sense,
Zoe, but it is the truth.

Yeah, well, maybe you got drunk
and forgot.

Given the sexual desert
of my last couple of years, Curtis,

I think that is something
I would remember.

What about you, Sarah?
Are you pregnant?

I was out of town that night
with Charlotte.

Otherwise, I think I might be.

The...same is true for me.

They're here.

Bring them in.
Bring them in, please.

There are some younger women
coming up with their parents.

They were also in the zone
that night,

some of them
at a house party on Lichfield Road.

They're in the same situation

but given that they were under 18
when it happened

we thought it important
to speak to them individually first.

Come on in. It's OK.

Everyone knows what's going on.

Please.

I really need them to sign this.

Listen, everyone.

DCI Haynes wants us
to sign this piece of paper

for our security and our protection.

You don't have to do this.

No-one here can make you
sign anything against your will.

You are free to leave and go home.

But one thing we must all accept.

May 6th happened.

And whether we like it or not,
we are all in this together now.

So I will be signing,
if you wish to join me.

Nora, isn't it?
Yeah.

Mary-Ann.

Bet that was one party
you wish you hadn't gone to.

What is this for?

It's an NIPT.

We're looking to isolate
the foetal DNA from your own.

Why?

At just over seven weeks,

the mother's blood contains
small levels of the baby's DNA

which is excreted
through the placenta.

But why are you doing this?

We do it for a variety of reasons.

But one thing we do want
to do is test for paternal DNA.

Paternal DNA?

We're looking to isolate
the foetal DNA.

It's an NIPT.

We're looking to isolate
the foetal DNA from your own.

Dr Zellaby.

Sorry. It's a bad habit.
I had given up but...

Free country last time I looked.

Well, that's a matter of opinion.

Have you got a moment?
Yeah.

I wanted to say...
so sorry for your loss.

If there's anything I can do...

Just through here.

Thanks.

Dr Zellaby.

Bernard Westcott, Home Office.
How do you do?

How do you do?

Shall we use my office?

We're still locating
all of the women affected.

We expect mostly terminations

but we are anticipating
a small percentage

may choose to keep the child.

Those women
may need psychological support.

I hope you're not asking me to report
back on personal consultations.

That would be unethical.

We just want you to help
the mothers on their journey.

Like you did today.

And we're willing to pay you
to do so.

One of those mothers is my daughter.

Surely that's a positive.

Well, you'll have an insight
none of us could possibly share.

Let me be frank, Dr Zellaby.

An entirely unexplained phenomenon
has occurred.

We have a responsibility to
protect not just the women concerned

but all of us.

We should use every tool
at our disposal.

Wouldn't you agree?

Susannah?

Before you go...

There is one thing that came up
on your background checks.

May 1999. Your daughter, Cassie.

What about it?

I just wanted to ask you
a few questions about that time,

if that's all right?

Maybe this was a bad idea.
No.

I need to face it.

Let me show you the room.

Paul.

You should know
I'm going to keep the baby.

I think I have to.

Can you understand that?

Well, it's your choice.
I know it's my choice.

I'm asking if you understand.

Are you OK?

Honestly... I don't know
how to answer that question.

Brought you a tea.

How are you feeling?
Is this my free session?

Paid for by the government.
No, I'm just asking you how you are.

It's...disturbing
and it's OK to say so.

Actually,
it all kind of makes sense.

Yeah.

I knew that night
had to be for something.

The way that I felt, right after.

I couldn't put it into words.

But now I...

It... it felt like I was visited.

Have you read the pamphlet?

Yeah, I've read it.

Cassie this...
this isn't an ordinary situation.

And you have to ask yourself
if you are ready for this.

I'm here of course, always,
but is that what you want?

To be reliant on me?

Just say it.
You want me to get rid of it.

You don't think that I can cope.
No, that's not what I said.

That's what you meant, though,
isn't it?

You don't think
that I'm mother material.

Oh, Cassie, don't.

I get one thing.
One thing of my own.

I understand.

And you'll send a letter?

Thank you.

Who was that?

The hospital.
They've got the test results.

And?

The baby has my DNA but not yours.

Apparently there's no evidence
of paternal DNA of any kind.

The woman said
as you're not the father,

you don't have the same legal
rights.

So we have to sign something
to ascribe those rights to you,

if you want to.

This is bullshit.

I'm with you.
It's OK.

I'm getting rid of it.
Where's that letter? No!

It's not what we wanted.
We wanted OUR child.

Zoe, listen to me. That doctor
gave us a less than 1% chance.

That's why we came here.
Change of environment...

Yeah, it worked. It worked.

Not... not how I wanted.

But it might be
the best chance we get.

So please don't get rid of it.

Please.

For me,
it's a matter of my religion.

I'm as disturbed by this as anyone.

But I won't interrupt God's work.

I don't expect everyone to agree.

But for me,
it's an article of faith.

No, Sam is being amazing.

He's feeding me huge suppers.

The baby's good.
The scan was normal.

No need for amnio
or anything like that.

Yes, I am sleeping fine.

It's all fine.

I can't explain it. It's like
this weird fucking miracle.

Hello, sweetheart.

Go on, Charlotte.

Oh, my God, you're the Virgin Mary.

Definitely not a virgin.

Who's messaging you?

Uh... It's just
someone from the council.

Can we play?

Sure.

Excuse me. Can I help?

No, I know where I'm going.

Miss Stone? We got your call.

Is anyone with you?
No.

Anyone coming to pick you up?

Um... Listen, I've...done this
before so let's just get it done.

Of course.

Please sit down and
wait for your name to be called.

Are you not with anyone?

My mum can't cope.
It's too weird for her.

It's too weird for all of us.

Hm.

My mate Sadie tried posting
about the whole thing on Facebook.

It got taken down.
The police came round.

Yeah.

We're being watched all the time.

I don't want anything to do with it.

If you'd like
to take a seat through here.

And wait for your name to be called.
OK. Thank you.

Hi.

I didn't know anyone else
would be here.

Well, I guess it's more efficient.

Cassandra Stone?

So, Cassie, you've thought about
keeping the baby but decided against.

Is that correct?
Yeah.

And you've made that decision
yourself?

Yeah.

OK, so you'll be taking two pills.

The first will block
the main pregnancy hormone

and the second will induce
the breakdown of the pregnancy.

Due to the unusual nature
of the pregnancy,

we'll administer the pills here
and monitor you during the process.

If you can just sign the consent
form, we'll get everything ready.

You've thought about having the baby
and have decided against.

Is that correct?
Yes, that's right.

And you made that decision yourself?

Yes, in consultation
with my husband.

Just wait through here,
Mrs Saunders.

Sign this consent form
and we'll get everything ready.

Thanks.

Sign this consent form
and we'll get everything ready.

Thank you.

OK, Miss Stone?

It's happened again.

As you can see, with
Kilmorey Avenue you get more garden,

a little less living space.

It's all a matter of taste, Aisha,
but I personally think its a peach.

Come any time. Even in winter,
it's always a trip worth making.

Your brother
is going to love you so much.

I've still got
another two months to go,

although you wouldn't think it
to look at me.

Ma'am.

..for the
09:56 service to London Marylebone

calling at Great Missenden,
Amersham, Chalfont and Latimer,

Chorleywood, Rickmansworth, Harrow
on the Hill and London Marylebone.

This train is formed
of five carriages.

Platform 1 for the 09:56 service
to London Marylebone...

Sorry about this.
No, not at all.

I'm glad you called.

Cassie's got a friend here
but they're upstairs

so we can talk in my study.

Would you like a cup of tea?

Ugh, there it is again.

What are you going to call her?

I was thinking about...Eve.

The first woman.

What?

It's too mystical for me.

Hey, stranger.

Hey! How are you?

Haven't seen you around.

Uh, well,
I went to Croydon for a bit

but it just didn't feel right,
you know?

So where are you staying?

I'm just with Paul for now.
OK. Mm.

It's only temporary. I'm going
to look for my own place soon.

Well, you know where to come.

We've got a lovely two-bed
in Drakesford Avenue. £600 a month.

Oh. Yeah, that sounds great.

How can we be so bloody heavy?

We've still got six weeks to go.
They shouldn't be this big.

Mum says it's weird.

Well, your mum
thinks everything's weird.

That is so true.

Oh... Laters, babe.

Come tomorrow?

I was at the station and
I just couldn't get on the train.

Well, a pregnant body
can behave like that.

The chemical changes are extreme.

No.

This is different.

It controlled my body, Susannah.

It?

Yes.

It doesn't want me to go to work.
It just wants me to be here.

It's like it has a will of its own.

Having chicken?
Yeah, it's an old family classic.

I can't find any of the spices,
though, so I'm having to improvise.

Ooh!

Argh!
You OK?

Uh... Yeah.

OK. Stay calm.

Have you got that number?
Yeah, it's on my phone.

Oh... It's so early, though.

They said it might come early,
remember?

Let's tell them
you're on your way in

then we'll call Paul
and he can pick you up.

We'll call outside. Walk with me.
OK.

No way!

Oh... OK.
OK.

OK?
Yeah.

Mum.
I've just seen. Seen what?

It's the Midwich chat group.
A couple of the mothers have -

Oh!

Ah!
Argh!

Urgh!

Urgh!
