"Whatever happened in Tehran..." "The United Nations is now aware of Iran's illegal development of WMDs, which is hardly a bad thing." "The Iranian government are meeting a businessman in London to buy a set of nuclear triggers that will give Iran full nuclear capability." "And the CIA knew?" "And didn't tell us." "I work for a group called Yalta." "What do you want with me?" "We can help you." "As we want you to help us." "You want me to be a traitor?" "The Iranians..." "How's your source there?" "Do you know how difficult it is for me to get here?" "You came anyway." "She could tell her husband about our op." "She will not tell her husband." "Open the door, somebody's trying to kill you." "I know, my darling." "You're involved with the British Government." "I don't normally do that." "Want to do it again?" "I have to get to work." "Let me make you breakfast." "OK." "Oh, shit, no, I have to go." "Look, I'll, um, I'll call you, though." "OK." "Any sign yet?" "Still waiting for the flight to come in." "Where have you been anyway?" "Wes's housemaster called." "Wanted me to go down to the school." "In the middle of the night?" "He's homesick." "He needed to see his dad." "Plus, I knew you'd have it covered." "Looks like our target." "Must be in the holdall." "Bingo!" "Just give us your wallet and your phone." "Come on!" "Come on, hurry up." "OK, OK!" "OK..." "Enough!" "I said enough!" "Ambulance, Lanrock Lane." "Head injury." "Seen here entering the country this morning, carrying the blueprints for a nuclear trigger." "In the holdall?" "The customs X-ray shows it contains a small metal container no bigger than a cigarette box." "It's inside the box that the blueprints are being stowed." "Can we see any details?" "Not on the X-ray." "We only have scant intel on the handover." "We still don't know when, where, or how much money is changing hands." "What we do know is once in Iranian hands the blueprints can be translated into the technical coding for a nuclear trigger, and Iran becomes a nuclear power." "A move that will antagonise America and Israel." "This could be the match that lights the tinder box." "With the Americans and allies on one side, the Russians, Chinese and Arabs on the other, it could be..." "World War Three." "Quite a lot for one Russian." "Our guess is that Valentino doesn't know the significance of what he's carrying." "Adam, we have a problem." "Valentino's gone." "What?" "I've just had word from surveillance." "He's not at the hotel." "He must have found the tracker." "Even so, there were 14 people outside that hotel." "Get me surveillance." "I want to know how they missed him." "Adam, there's something you should see." "You and Ros weren't the only people to meet Valentino." "He was under surveillance, he must have known." "We better pray it's not our Iranian contact." "Where did this man go next?" "Well, he looks like he was speeding off in a car." "Traced it to a warehouse." "It was hired three weeks ago." "This address." "We need to meet." "Things have changed." "Harry..." "We widened the face-recognition search to foreign contacts." "We got a match." "The good news is he's not Iranian." "The bad news is the man following Valentino is KGB." "FSB." "So, he changes his name, he's still the same wild beast." "Russian secret police were waiting for Valentino as well?" "Valentino isn't unknown to them." "He worked for them in the '80s as an informer." "Something happened, he fled the country." "Since then it looks like he's been working against Russia, arming, amongst others, Chechens with weapons to use against his former country." "No wonder the Russians are after his blood." "It might be an idea to get hold of Adam and tell him what he's dealing with." "PHONE RINGS OUT" "HE DIALS NUMBER" "INDISTINCT VOICE ON OTHER END OF PHONE Yeah, thanks." "I've got it." "It's a warning." "What does it say?" "It's not exactly polite." "The gist?" "The gist is back off Valentino, he's our man, and the rest is..." "Is?" "Siminekee." "That's Russian for testicles, isn't it?" "Darling, you look flustered." "Wouldn't you be?" "Oh, he's been clever, but we can be cleverer still." "He vanished from right under our noses." "What he did was impossible." "Certainly it was impressive." "You said you have something for me." "I do, but it is a quid pro quo situation, Ros." "I need eyes and ears on the grid." "You're joking?" "Malcolm's wired the grid with every detector known, I'd never get it through pods." "There's nothing that will pick up these little gems." "Valentino is half a mile from here, at TG 667412." "How did you find him?" "Well, let's just say I know how these Russians think." "Iran going nuclear will only fuel US aggression." "We're all agreed Valentino must be stopped." "I think you'd better get on with stopping him, don't you?" "SHE DIALS A NUMBER" "Harry, I've got him." "SHE DIALS" "Yes, Ros?" "OK, you've got a deal." "ELECTRONIC BEEPING" "Ros?" "Good work." "Thanks." "Finding a lone Russian in a city of eight million - brilliant, even." "How'd you do it?" "Just got lucky." "Surveillance missed something." "Problem is..." "No holdall." "Could the deal already have happened?" "I don't think so." "If it had, Valentino would've already left London." "Where would a lone Russian put blueprints for safekeeping?" "Well, we can't let the KGB get to him before we find out." "FSB." "I know." "Well, which ever, we don't have much time." "The FSB are bound to work out his movements as we have." "Can we do a deal with the FSB?" "A deal with the Russians?" "They give us 24 hours, we hand him over, or something?" "Well, what?" "It's been done before." "They're a law unto themselves." "Why would they work with us?" "I think they're softening him up, playing cat and mouse to terrify him." "My guess is they need something from him before they kill him." "So?" "What do we do?" "Well, we can offer him immunity." "That's all we can do." "If he's as scared as he seems, he may take it." "Where are we going?" "Nyeh boysya." "Mi predlagayem drookhboo." "I don't know much about you." "You haven't even told me what you do." "Oh, come on, Jo, let's cut the charade." "You didn't check me out first thing this morning?" "You're a journalist." "And you're a spy." "Am I part of some scoop?" "Listen, I nearly walked away from the whole thing." "You have to believe that, but it... it's too big." "Yes, I approached you because there's something I've been working on, but what happened last night wasn't just about work." "Don't." "I need your help." "There's something big going on, and I need someone on the inside." "Do you know this guy?" "Doesn't ring any bells." "I'll take that as a yes." "I think the Government's covering their tracks about something, and this man here is on to them." "I want to know why he was silenced." "It doesn't work like that." "What does it look like?" "This man is now in hospital, on a drip." "I could print what I have right now." "I just want someone to tell me it isn't true." "Adam, can I have a word?" "Yeah, what?" "You're gonna think I'm crazy, but there's this guy..." "What guy?" "He calls himself a journalist." "I met him in a bar." "He seems to think that you were in North London this morning, and that you silenced someone." "HE SCOFFS" "This morning?" "Yeah." "Just to warn you." "I don't need warning." "I've been at the airport since the early hours waiting for a flight from Moscow." "Ask Ros." "She already did." "There you go." "Who is this bloke?" "I told you, I don't know that much about him." "His name will do." "Ben Kaplin." "He's a freelance journalist." "I'll look him up." "Thanks for the warning." "Sorry, no visitors." "I just wanted to see how he was doing." "I heard he was hurt." "Are you family?" "Sort of." "A close friend." "MONITOR BLEEPS RHYTHMICALLY" "MONITOR'S BLEEPING CONTINUES TO BE HEARD" "SHOWER RUNS IN BACKGROUND" "Expecting someone else?" "Do you want to start talking?" "She doesn't know I'm here." "She had a fight with her husband." "So she told you." "She needed a place for the night." "And you thought you'd oblige, with an Ml5 safe house, unauthorised." "Look, we got her into this mess." "She's my responsibility." "She killed a man when she was on our errand." "Are you in love with her?" "No." "You told me there was a crisis with Wes." "You lied about Wes." "I wasjust trying to protect her." "She's a big girl, Adam, she doesn't need protecting, and you're compromising the operation." "The man who attacked you outside is a journalist." "His name is Tim Leharre." "He was just a mugger." "Not true, as it turns out." "He was after my wallet." "No." "You listen to this." "Leharre was following a story about Ml5." "He approached you, and you hit him." "This is fantasy..." "I'm telling you what's gonna be written..." "I punched a guy." "He hit his head." "It's a bad luck story, that's all." "What about the other journalist, Ben Kaplin?" "Have you heard of him before?" "No." "So you think you're being set up?" "Of course I am, don't be so stupid!" "Look, the mugger will wake up." "It's mild concussion." "They're expecting him to come around today." "Then we'll see." "And if he doesn't wake up?" "Then I'll need all the friends I've got." "You'll tell Harry?" "Look, Ros, wait." "Ros, please..." "She is not good for you." "This situation is not good for you." "She's an asset." "Adam?" "Yeah, it's just me." "Vzgleenee khatya-b na fatagrafioo." "Let's try a different tack." "Tell him we know about his past... and what he's got up to." "Nam ez-vyestna, shto ti zamyershan f pradazha aroozheye chichensam." "So we have two choices - either we call our old friends the Russians..." "Mi mozhem stateebya fe es beh." "...or he can work with us." "Eelee rabotey znami." "Valentino's not in the interrogation cell." "No-one's raising the alarm." "We got them?" "We got them." "Right now, Valentino will be heading to a storage facility off Waterloo Road." "When we picked him up we brought him through the pods, where we detected a swipe card." "The card accesses a locker at a storage facility." "When he opens this locker, he'll pick up what he'll assume is his holdall, containing the blueprints." "Only it won't be his holdall, it'll be an identical one we put in its place." "It's vital that we maintain surveillance on Valentino." "He'll receive a message as to where and when the hand-over is." "Then we swoop, before the buyer knows there's nothing to buy." "We need vigilance." "Valentino will try to go to ground, keep as low a profile as possible until the moment of the deal." "As soon as he moves, I'll let you know." "We've got another tracker on him." "Hello, mate." "Give me the usual, will you?" "Cute." "MOBILE PHONE RINGS" "Adam, it's Tehran." "Your mugger was investigating the Tehran bomb." "We're going to look as guilty as hell if he doesn't wake up." "Destroy everything you can." "We need to buy some time." "I've just had a message." "Tim Leharre is dead." "He was alive and well this afternoon." "He was in a coma." "He was breathing." "Well, he isn't now." "Why didn't you tell me?" "Didn't think it was important, it wasjust a mugging." "Bullshit." "One word " "Ana." "Somebody's got it in for me." "Did you see her?" "Yes." "In an Ml5 safehouse?" "A meeting outside of an operation?" "In fact, a meeting with no agenda, except your own." "I believed it was essential to shore her up as an asset." "That's a new name for it." "You went there because you couldn't help yourself." "It's probably immaterial now anyway." "We have a huge problem right where we don't need it." "The man, Tim Leharre, who apparently mugged you, was a journalist." "It's a fabrication." "Well, this is the accusation, at least bear the charge before" "The Tehran bomb." "The story we thought we'd buried." "It's your word against his." "He's dead, and no-one speaks louder than a dead body." "There's nothing definitive." "So far." "We've been monitoring the situation carefully, nothing's come up." "Unless someone's been indiscrete." "No." "Even half a sentence or a whisper where it shouldn't be." "Absolutely not." "A bug - could she have got a bug on you?" "Ana is not involved!" "I'm sorry, Adam, in this case your judgement is seriously flawed." "Let's hope there is no hard evidence, just speculation." "Cos if there's an email, a tape, or the ghost of a finger print on the trigger, the Government will fall, you realise that?" "Either way, there's now a murder charge against you." "I can't run." "What about Wes?" "Yes, what about Wes when you're serving life?" "You're going to have to trust me." "Lie low, just for a few days." "Take it, for God's sake." "Being a spy is not like being a journalist." "You creep around behind people's back, try to catch them out to make some profit." "Make some sort of statement about morality." "We creep around to try and make the world a bit safer." "You're lucky you have a job where black and white looks so clean." "Mine is not even grey, it's patchy, mottled." "You can't even tell what's colour and what's... murk." "A call may or may not have been made in Tehran, it may or may not have been the right call, but someone had to make it." "And I would much rather have the people that are currently working in Ml5 than others who will swoop in if this story breaks us all." "You know what you've done so far?" "You've just removed one of the best officers from his job, you've left the security services vulnerable to becoming state- controlled." "So if that makes you sleep safer in your bed at night then... well done." "A good day's work, I'd say." "Who's that?" "He's what the Home Office call damage limitation." "The Home Secretary is grateful for your loyalty." "Only to be used if evidence comes to light." "Speculation can be fought." "Of course." "Where is Carter?" "I haven't seen him." "You gave him a false passport and sent him on his way." "Not necessarily." "We are on the same team, Harry." "I don't want this any more than you do." "The media is already onto this story." "We need to contain the damage." "I'm going to move in some of my staff." "I don't know what else I can do." "If Carter makes contact, I want to make sure that we are here to take the call." "Move in some of your staff?" "We won't interfere." "I just need to have eyes and ears around." "You do understand, don't you?" "This is a secret service." "Not today." "Today it is transparent." "I saw the papers." "It's you, isn't it?" "My colleagues think you and your husband set me up, that I can't trust you." "You knew I'd be walking down that street, the precise moment I'd be leaving the safe house." "I wouldn't do that." "I have been officially told not to see you." "Adam, please don't say that." "Then give me something." "You stink." "Thanks!" "No, really." "The Iranian contact in the nuclear deal is called Massoud Narzemi." "He is likely to make contact with Valentino in person." "Where did you get this?" "The handover of the holdall could happen today." "We can't trust her, Adam." "Harry's told us we've got to treat her like a mole." "She said he'll be using a mobile - this is the number." "In case Valentino gives you the slip again." "It's not reliable." "Look, I don't question your sources!" "The Iranian contact is her brother-in-law." "He came into Britain yesterday." "Just tap into the mobile and see what you can get." "OK." "You said you had something for me." "CCTV images." "Connie went over Leharre's movements on the day he attacked you, to build up a picture of who he was, who he met with." "We follow him for most of the day, but then we lose him for three hours." "Where?" "Waterloo Bridge." "Connie, can you patch into this mobile please?" "Let me know if anything of interest comes up." "Where's Harry?" "He's in the media liaison." "Valentino's made a move." "He's out of hiding." "Get Harry out of there." "Daragaya, sadees f-masheenoo." "Tipyer-anee mawgoot preetee zetaboy flyooboy mamyent, payetemoonee sport, prashoo-tibya." "Ya tawzhe tibya loobloo, notte dalzhnamenya pazlooshet..." "Te dalzhna svizatsa sma eemee bratzhemee..." "Shto etta?" "Kto tam?" "Loobeemaya!" "?" "Can you get out of my way, please?" "Connie, can I have a full translation of what Valentino is saying?" "Who's he calling?" "It's international, unknown number, something's changed." "We have details of the hand-over." "When?" "Today, three o'clock." "A call was made on Massoud Nazemi's mobile, just as Ana said." "Names and where the money is to be transferred." "It checks out?" "Seems so." "Excuse me have you seen this man?" "Have you seen this man?" "Have you seen this man..." "I'm looking for this man." "Can you help me?" "No." "Are you sure?" "No!" "Are you sure." "Have you seen this..." "Excuse me, I'm looking for this, this man, have you seen this man?" "How about you?" "No chance." "You didn't even look." "We don't do missing people." "You from the police?" "No." "Private detective?" "No." "I just met him once and want to find him again." "Have you seen him?" "He isn't here." "But you know him?" "Nah." "And before you say anything, we don't need your money." "Money?" "Who said anything about money?" "I thought you had money like the last man." "What happened?" "He fell." "It's definitely your friend?" "No mistake." "I think he's been the victim of identity theft." "HE PRAYS IN OWN LANGUAGE" "I'm sorry." "Tells his wife, take the kids to the border." "Instructions about who to stay with..." "It sounds final..." "Oh..." "a man's voice - he's shouting." "Telling them to get down." "Sounds like they're already under arrest." "And Valentino heard this?" "Shit!" "HE MURMURS IN RUSSIAN" "Harry, I've got evidence that Leharre's a construct." "We need to meet and explain what..." "LINE GOES DEAD" "Are we tracing that call?" "Why did you hang up?" "We'll be arresting you next." "We've traced him, I've just told the police." "POLICE SIRENS" "Get in!" "Get down!" "POLICE SIREN BLARES" "SIREN IN DISTANCE He's gone." "I had a visit from one of your colleagues." "She made me think." "I got sent the photos anonymously." "I didn't know who and I didn't ask." "But when I did ask, it sent me on a strange trail." "I thought you should see it." "Why should I trust you?" "You probably shouldn't." "RINGING TONE" "Yeah, I'm calling about your dry cleaning." "Its been switched with someone else's." "Someone called Hogan." "I take it you didn't happen to just be passing?" "Two minutes." "You're a wanted man." "I picked up the trail, Hogan." "The photos, the fake ID." "It all leads straight back to you." "It does?" "There never was such a person as Tim Leharre." "He was a drunk that you paid to attack me, with a camera handy to record the whole thing." "Why, Bob?" "You think we're stupid?" "Where you can steal classified CIA intel from under our noses, with no repercussions?" "We wouldn't, if you'd let us know what was going on." "You've been listening to politicians, Sir Harry." "There is no special relationship." "When you're useful you're useful." "When you're not, you're in the way." "I'll make a note of that." "Do you happen to know who's brokering the Iranian nuclear arms deal?" "You and your bellicose country want Iran to arm itself precisely so you have the excuse to wipe them out." "It's a theory." "Too bad we intercepted." "We have the blueprints." "You Brits always were meddlesome idiots." "You wearing a wire?" "No." "You?" "You have to let this handover go through." "Yeah, we fingered Adam to get you off our backs." "But this deal, there's a whole load more at stake." "You're talking as if this is your deal." "You set it up." "Yes, sir." "We heard Iran wanted to obtain nuclear triggers." "So we thought, "They'll get 'em anyway." What?" "You saying America's arming Iran?" "No, we're selling them blueprints with a deliberate error." "A tiny miscalculation that will set their nuclear programme back a decade." "You put a stop to this charade." "Undo the Tim Leharre story." "We can still let this deal go through." "There isn't much time." "The designated handover's within the hour." "Ros - change of strategy." "Get the blueprints back to Valentino before the deal this afternoon." "Adam, we can't do that." "Everything's changed." "No, Adam, we can't give anything to Valentino any more." "SIRENS BLARE" "We can't let Valentino's suicide stop the handover from happening." "We simply have to find a replacement quickly." "A replacement for Valentino?" "Somebody with no identity, no past." "Somebody if interrogated would know nothing, say nothing, wouldn't be missed." "And most importantly would disappear again afterwards." "I've got a coffee and five grand." "Which do you want first?" "Are you my guardian angel or something?" "That'll be the something." "Please don't be a hallucination." "Just drink your coffee." "You're taking a risk, aren't you?" "Presuming Massoud never met Valentino." "It's a calculated risk." "We've got 15 minutes." "It will take more like 20." "We don't have 20." "I can't make it fly." "I have got a headache." "You're getting paid, aren't you?" "Yeah." "So what's the problem?" "I hate coffee." "It's number 35." "There's no sign of Connie and the holdall." "What time is it?" "One minute past." "One more minute and we missed it." "If anybody asks, your name's Valentino." "All right, that's all you know." "Take this to number 35, OK?" "Nothing else." "Is it drugs?" "Something like that." "Is this the point where I get arrested and take all the shit?" "Just come back here afterwards." "We'll be waiting for you." "The Iranians are no fools, Adam." "It's a chance we had to take." "We had no other option." "It's a flawed plan, Adam, and you know it." "There could be a sniper at any moment." "LOUD MOTOR" "When the surveillance on that holdall is activated, we should be able to see where those blueprints are taken next." "Right down to which underground lab in Iran." "Adam was the victim of a smear campaign, run by an ex-Ml5 officer with an axe to grind." "Got it." "Got everything you need?" "Sure." "The link with Tehran was fabricated in an attempt to sabotage his old employers." "I've got it!" "Bye." "Bye." "So typically American." "So typically arrogant." "Such a typically American plan." "The press have a watertight story?" "We have Hogan's balls in a vice now." "Only five people know about their scheme, two of them are in our office." "He came up with a very convincing case about an ex-officer with an axe to grind." "Ben Kaplan did the rest." "Plus, this evening's news." "The world has something else to think about." "A footballer has adopted twins." "Sorry, you're yesterday's story." "You going home?" "Yeah." "Fancy a drink?" "I'll even admit you were right." "As tempting as that sounds, I can't tonight." "Why?" "You got a better offer?" "Maybe." "What?" "You can't carry on seeing her, you know." "I thought she proved herself." "Look, I'm grateful for your help earlier, Ros, but..." "Adam, do yourself a favour, OK?" "Get out of there." "I don't need babysitting." "Fine." "You're on your own." "I'm not a fool, I know I've got to walk away." "As I said, you're on your own." "MOBILE RINGS" "'A good day, by all accounts.' Yeah, well, you got what you wanted." "'We all benefit from working together, Ros, 'which is exactly why I'm getting in touch." "There's something I thought you'd want to know.'" "It was really easy before." "My life was easy." "I wasn't torn in any direction." "I was occasionally bored, but I didn't mind." "This is the last time we'll see each other, isn't it?" "Then I should go." "It will only get more difficult." "Her minder's in the building." "They must all know." "Adam, you've gotta get out of there." "Good bye." "You OK?" "ECHOING:" "Too much champagne." "You need some water." "You poisoned me." "You poisoned me." "I'm not stupid" "Don't." "No, no." "Please, please..." "Which room is he in?" "Which room's he in?" "!" "I said what room's he in?" "Where is he?" "!" "Adam!" "Adam!" "Adam!" "Adam!" "SHE SOBS Please!" "Adam, don't do this to me!" "Adam!" "Please." "Adam!" "Adam!" "Please." "Adam!" "ADAM!" "You, what did you give him?" "You!" "What did you give him?" "I don't know." "A drug." "My husband told me to use it." "I don't know." "I had to, my husband found out." "I..." "I..." "I had no choice." "What do you want me to do with her, Adam?" "Not exactly leaping to your defence, is he?" "You give me one good reason why I shouldn't pull the trigger." "I still have information that you need." "I can still be useful." "Please, we have heard it all before." "No, no, no." "It's true!" "Don't listen to her." "I promise you." "Don't listen." "What information?" "About the deal for technical drawings." "The blueprints that were sold today." "My husband found out they were fake." "Go on." "So when he knew they were false, he set up another deal." "You were so busy looking in the wrong direction you missed it." "My country just obtained a real firing set." "We are now a nuclear power." "GUNSHOTS WITH SILENCER" "The blueprints we intercepted were useless, fakes." "The real circuitboards fly today." "Get to the airport now." "Everyone's boarding now." "81 are cleared, mostly Iran nationals." "If the circuitboards are on that" "You must not proceed to Teheran!" "Without the flame arresters this thing isn't a plane, it's a bomb." "The flame arresters have been smashed, both engines." "Can she fly?" "If she hits turbulence there's nothing to protect the fuel bay." "If she flies through an electrical storm she's a sitting duck." "Subtitles by Red Bee Media Ltd"
