Meadows and Manson arrive at St. Hugh's to speak to suspect Roland O'Brien, only to walk right into the middle of a hostage situation – finding themselves being tied up in the boiler room by O'Brien's deranged son. Okaro arrives to take charge of the situation, and assigns Masters as negotiator, despite it being her first day. Having dealt with son Anthony, Masters attempts to use her knowledge of O'Brien and brings in his ex-girlfriend, who is now carrying his baby. Meanwhile, Hunter launches himself back into Harman's good books when he rescues her from her captor. As the riot dwindles and Roland's condition worsens, Anthony becomes more unstable, leading Valentine into desperate and lethal action. Nixon's daughter Abi shows up at St. Hugh's in the aftermath with a massive bombshell for her mother

01:10What's she doing with her?
01:12Come on!
01:17Well, how about you two cover the right of the line?
01:23How are you feeling?
01:25Bruised and a bit stupid
01:26Roland's son took me by surprise
01:29I thought I was here looking after some joker with deli-bally
01:32I didn't expect this
01:33Do you know where they went?
01:35No, not really
01:36Okay
01:37Send the line
01:38No sign of him
01:41Any news of backup?
01:43Well, half of a sudden they were downstairs dealing with the protest group
01:45Sounds bit C. Valentine
01:47Well, he's going to need some treatment
01:48And we need to get these cuffs off
01:50Go!
01:53It's all right, we're police officers
01:55What the hell are you doing with that?
01:58We're getting out of here
02:00You're not going to stop us
02:02Look, I told you when it was seated
02:06Did that it's all right?
02:08Terry!
02:09Terry, for goodness sake
02:11How many times have you had to turn to Ben?
02:13Listen, would you open the door first, please?
02:15What part of stay away didn't you understand?
02:17Why are you trying to jeopardise this kid?
02:20No, I'm not coming!
02:21Get up and sit down!
02:22Stop it!
02:23I'm not going to stop it!
02:27Listen to me, he's been charged with sexual assault
02:30His going to court this afternoon is completely out of our hands
02:33You said you had doubts
02:34Yes, I'm not convinced that he physically abused his son
02:36But according to Bradley
02:38Hey, fuck!
02:39This would be over now!
02:40Listen
02:40We interview Bradley
02:42We interview Ben's wife
02:43We arrest Ben
02:44It's simple to me, Ramony
02:45My brother is abusing his son
02:48According to your brother
02:49He spent some time alone with his son
02:52Trying to tell him about the abuse
02:54You believe that?
02:55Boy, listen to me!
02:58He was trying to educate him
03:00To try and warn him
03:01And you know what I think
03:03After everything we've done
03:06After everything we've got this family through
03:07The only thing we can do
03:09Is we can try to get through this
03:11All right!
03:12We can try to get through this
03:14Okay?
03:15Just stay calm
03:16Come on
03:17Come on
03:17Hi!
03:20How's my favourite boy?
03:21Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah
03:22Been down there all day?
03:24Yeah, Oscar from 298
03:25Have you got a running time on the TSG units assisting us?
03:29Better get back down there
03:29Come on
03:30I can't
03:30I'm going to prison with Roger
03:31Thanks tonight, then
03:33What?
03:34No, no
03:34Out there, both of you!
03:39Door!
03:42Keep an eye on him, yeah?
03:43And?
03:44The man's handcuffed to a hospital bed
03:46What do you think he's going to do?
03:47Drag it round with him?
03:48Where are you going?
03:49To get rid of these two?
03:51Then we're out of here
03:51Dad?
03:53I'm fine
03:54It's some sort of stomach bug
03:55It's nothing
03:55Come on
03:57Move!
03:58I told you
04:06This is the last time you've ever seen
04:08Shut up!
04:11What are they saying?
04:12What are they saying?
04:17I made it!
04:19I warned you!
04:19Tierra Oscar, 158 St. Hughes, third floor
04:27All suspect arrested
04:28Second suspect still at large
04:30Repeat, second suspect still at large
04:32Last scene, St. Hughes, third floor corridor
04:34Over
04:35All received, over
04:37All received, over
04:37All received, it's over
04:39Ladies, thank you
04:41Where's the suspect that PC Hunter arrested?
04:43PC Harmon and Hunter are holding on third floor, sir
04:46DS Nixon is on standby to interviewing
04:48But the protest is over. I want this area cleared. Now.
04:53There are a few stragglers in the building, but our offices are on to itself.
04:56Good. Anything more from DC Iron Meadows and D.I. Manson?
04:59No, sir. All available units are helping hospital staff to search and clear the immediate area.
05:03The last contact we had with them was when the call for a backup went out. Since then...
05:07Get up there and make sure they've got everything they need to deal with this situation, Jack.
05:11Jack.
05:15What have you done with them?
05:16Oh, you don't want to know.
05:21They won't be bothering us again.
05:23For God's sake.
05:25Anne, what are you doing?
05:29Say we do get out of here. What then?
05:31Who else is in on this?
05:34Nobody else. Just family.
05:37None of the lads?
05:38What, you mean this is just down to you and Jeff?
05:40Yeah, just me and Jeff. Your boys.
05:43You idiot!
05:44What were you going to do?
05:47Walk me through customs, put me on a plane and wave me goodbye.
05:49No.
05:51We'll go with you.
05:52He's just going to be fine.
05:54We'll take him with us and we'll all get out of here together.
05:58Listen to yourself!
05:59This is insane!
06:02I can't believe you dragged your brother into this as well.
06:04Put down the gun and think about it for a minute.
06:10You know, that's right.
06:11Sit!
06:12Right, right, right.
06:13Yes, but the prince showed the man we had in custody was Roland O'Brien, not Kelly.
06:23And he spent the last few years in northern Cyprus trying to dodge extradition and fraud.
06:28So it looks like he sneaked into the UK for his daughter's wedding, was arrested for drink driving and ended up taking some help.
06:34But he got sick and they brought him here before DCI Meadows could get to him.
06:38I thought there were two officers with the prisoner.
06:39There were.
06:41But PC Hunter was pulled into the protest.
06:42Yes, it's this way.
06:47He's not saying anything and he's not carrying any ID.
06:49But he called the suspect pushing the wheelchair ants.
06:52This is his and there's an ant in the speed dial list.
06:54It was the last number dialed.
06:55Two armed response units have been assigned, sir.
06:57The immediate area's been cleared.
06:59The man in the wheelchair, was he resisting?
07:01No, it seemed to me they were trying to get him out of St Hugh's.
07:03Now it makes sense.
07:04I've had dealings with him and his brother Anthony.
07:07That's Geoff O'Brien, Roman's son.
07:10The inner cordon is this way, sir.
07:11Thanks, Steve.
07:12There's no one heard from the PCI in the behind yet?
07:16Oh, yes, sir.
07:17The description of the suspect PC Harman saw pushing the wheelchair
07:20fits Anthony O'Brien, Roland's eldest son.
07:23What do we know about this, Anthony?
07:24I nicked him for aggravated theft when he was a juvenile,
07:26but I couldn't tell you what form he's got now.
07:28Well, we'd better find out.
07:29You'll need to know everything you can about this man.
07:31Sir?
07:31The hostage negotiation team has been alerted.
07:33Right.
07:34But they'll take an hour to get here at least.
07:36We need to make a first contact with him and we need to do it fast.
07:38You've had dealings with the man.
07:39I say you get the job.
07:40Any problems with that?
07:42No, sir.
07:43Good.
07:44Steve.
07:44Who's the master's?
07:45Which one is your sister?
07:46They nicked you, Dad.
07:48For drink driving.
07:51They would have all blown over if you hadn't barged in.
07:54What about those two guys from CID?
07:56They didn't turn up to bring you grapes and flowers.
07:58I've been dodging a map for years.
08:00I'd have dealt with it.
08:02I'd have been on a flight back to Arcane tomorrow.
08:05It's going to be fine.
08:06You'll get out of here and back home just like you planned.
08:08This is a great wedding present for your sister.
08:11I'm doing it for you!
08:13Let's just try and stay calm here, sir.
08:14Shut it!
08:15I won't tell you again!
08:17Oi!
08:17Stop waving that thing around!
08:19Jeff, where are you?
08:23We have to...
08:24Jeff?
08:26What's he say?
08:27What's going on?
08:28This is the police!
08:29This area is surrounded by armed officers.
08:37There's no way for you to get out.
08:40You hear that?
08:41They've got half a son of your neck out there.
08:44Give up your weapon and come out.
08:46We've still got a way out.
08:55As long as we've got him.
08:57Oh, no.
09:18We need to get on to the service provider
09:20to cut off his mobile signal as soon as possible.
09:22We don't want him talking to anyone except DC Masters.
09:25Okay.
09:27We have one armed suspect.
09:29A second man.
09:30His father may also be armed.
09:33They're holding definitely one, potentially three officers.
09:36The inner cordon here
09:37has one window overlooking the ambulance bay.
09:40I want another outer cordon blocking off this area.
09:44Leela, redirect all emergency arrivals wherever you need to.
09:48Sir?
09:48The outer cordon also covers the whole of this floor.
09:54No one is to come in or out without authorisation.
09:57Does that get me straight through?
09:58It's a one-way line.
09:59When you're ready, hit this button.
10:00In the absence of DCI Meadows,
10:03the senior command team will comprise myself,
10:07Inspector Gold at Sunhill and DS Nixon.
10:10DC Masters will take the negotiator's role
10:14until the hostage team arrive.
10:16Are you okay?
10:17Yeah, I'm fine.
10:18I'm really sorry.
10:19I don't see you.
10:19Ken, not now.
10:20Honey, we need to get a message out to the public
10:23as soon as possible that there are no patients
10:26or hospital staff involved in this.
10:28Let's keep it as calm as possible.
10:29Okay, let's get moving.
10:30Steve?
10:31Get word to Sergeant Hemingway.
10:32As soon as the last of the protesters is moved from A&E,
10:35I want all available uniform to assist
10:36in strengthening the outer cordon.
10:38No one gets in or out of this hospital
10:40unless it's a medical emergency.
10:42Clear?
10:42Sir.
10:43Good.
10:44Okay, SA-19.
10:47Gather round.
10:49You want your brother and your dad
10:50to get out of this alive, don't you?
10:55Believe me, Jeff,
10:56this isn't the time to be uncooperative.
10:59There are ten, maybe fifteen police officers up there.
11:03Some of them with high-velocity weapons
11:05and they will use them, if they have to.
11:11It wasn't supposed to happen like this.
11:14Okay.
11:15How was it supposed to happen?
11:19You tell me, what was the plan?
11:21We just wanted to get Dad out
11:22and back home to Cyprus.
11:26He said it would be easy.
11:27Who did?
11:29Was this your Dad's idea?
11:32This is a very serious offence, Jeff.
11:36You're already facing five years in prison.
11:41I got a call from the Nick
11:42telling him Dad had been brought here.
11:46He said we'd be able to get him out easy.
11:48How were you going to get him away?
11:52I borrowed a mate's van.
11:55No, I meant
11:56how were you going to get him out of the UK?
12:00Did you have flight tickets?
12:02Passports?
12:05It's not a very good plan, is it, Jeff?
12:08What about the two police officers?
12:10Are they being held, too?
12:11I don't know about them.
12:13I never saw them.
12:18Go.
12:20Go, are you sure this isn't a gas pipe?
12:23So you'd rather stay here, will you,
12:24just until somebody happens by?
12:25No, but if this is a gas pipe,
12:27the whole thing could go on.
12:28I can't believe this.
12:29I cannot believe this.
12:30I knew this was going to be a bad day.
12:31I knew it.
12:31The moment that Joe Masters
12:32walked in the building
12:33and knew something was going to kick off me.
12:34Neil, will you do me a favour?
12:35What?
12:37Just put a shock in it, will you?
12:39It's bad enough being here
12:40without you whining on.
13:02This'll have to be quick.
13:03I'm not supposed to be here.
13:04Terry.
13:05I'm begging you.
13:08Please.
13:09You've got to make this stop.
13:12You know I haven't done the things
13:14they've accused me of.
13:16How could I?
13:17Ben, listen.
13:17I could be banged up till the trial.
13:21Don't even know how long that's going to be.
13:24Terry.
13:27Please.
13:32At least you could help me get bail.
13:33Well, you could put a word in.
13:36I could stop at yours.
13:37You must be joking.
13:41Anyway, Lucy and the boys are staying at my place.
13:46You really have.
13:47Got my family under your spell, haven't you?
13:51Terry, you've got to help me.
13:53You know I won't be able to cope.
13:55Can I talk to you outside, please?
14:00Sure.
14:12Look, Romney.
14:13Terry.
14:15You are making my job impossible.
14:18Ben asked to speak to me.
14:37I said yes.
14:39The custody officer brought him out.
14:42What's wrong with that?
14:43Nothing at all except the only reason that you're here
14:45on duty is because you promised
14:48that you wouldn't get involved.
14:52Yes.
14:58Ben asked me to help him get bail.
15:00I know him.
15:02He's right.
15:03He won't cope in there.
15:06He'll be a target for every head case in prison.
15:10I mean, you thought he was so guilty.
15:12Why do you want to...
15:13Why do you think you want to help him now?
15:15I don't know what I'm thinking.
15:19There are things I could do for him.
15:21Yeah.
15:22Maybe I should help bail him out.
15:30If you believe he's innocent.
15:34If there's no...
15:34What are you looking for?
15:47The helicopter that's going to fly you out of here?
15:50It's not like in the films.
15:51You do know that, don't you?
15:52Yeah.
15:54Take that.
15:58Give this up, and it'll be better for your boy.
16:01Yeah.
16:02What about me?
16:05They'll get me linked to some firearms charge.
16:07I'll go down for 20 years.
16:09I'm telling you, they won't let you leave here.
16:11They're going to sit this out.
16:13This is textbook stuff.
16:17At the time in Hackney.
16:19That one lasted 14 days.
16:20What happened then?
16:23The guy blew his brains out.
16:27You hear that?
16:30He's just messing with you.
16:32He's just...
16:33Are you going to answer that?
16:46Anthony O'Brien?
17:00Who wants to know?
17:03This is DC Joe Masters.
17:06Do you remember me?
17:07Oh, yeah, I remember you.
17:09I'm right across the corridor.
17:12This is a bad situation, Ant.
17:14I know this is not where you or your father want to be.
17:19I want to help you find a way to sort this out.
17:23We are getting out of here, and if anyone tries to stop us...
17:29I've got one of your officers, I swear, I'll shoot him.
17:33So, you'd better tell everybody to let us through.
17:37I can't do that, Ant.
17:39What?
17:40Release PC Valentine, and then we'll talk about how to resolve this.
17:45Tell me about the two CID officers.
17:47Go!
18:06Terry?
18:07I'm going to meet Lucy at the court.
18:08Right, well, if you support Lucy and the kids, go home and call me, OK?
18:12What are you going to do?
18:13I'm going to do what needs to be done.
18:14What does that mean?
18:17So, you're telling me you've never used a gun before?
18:21We got them from a mate in a pub.
18:23Ant said we wouldn't have to use them, just wave them around a bit.
18:26So, why were there live rounds in them?
18:29Just in case.
18:32All right.
18:33So, you came here, you saw the protesters, and then what?
18:38Well, I said it was too risky.
18:40Too many cops around.
18:42Ant said we could stir things up, distract everybody while we got Dad out.
18:47OK.
18:47But why would Ant do this?
18:51Surely not just to impress his Dad.
18:54I mean, is there another reason why Ant would do this?
18:58Is there, Jeff?
19:00Yeah.
19:04Gillian.
19:04Are you still sulking her if you're passed out?
19:13It's hot.
19:17We need a plan.
19:19Otherwise, we're going to be stuck here forever.
19:20And I don't want that any more than you do.
19:23I plan.
19:25Great.
19:26Any thoughts, Guff?
19:28Because it's occurred to me, you see, no one knows we're here, so no one's going to be looking for us.
19:32Of course they do.
19:33Until you've seen your officers get all missing, they'll be pulling out all the stops.
19:36Oh, oh.
19:40What?
19:45My back's itching.
19:48So do you want me to do that?
19:49Come on, Guff.
19:52That's gracious.
19:54They could change from stabbing it.
20:02Down a bit.
20:03Ant's girlfriend left him about three weeks ago, and he hasn't got over him.
20:09She's a bit of a footballer's wife, I think.
20:11He likes the glamour, the lifestyle.
20:14Loves the idea of going out with a smooth criminal, but Ant turned out to be all mouth and no trousers.
20:18Okay, so when Ant heard that his dad had been nicked, he decided he'd play the hero and get him out.
20:23And win back this Gillian by showing her what a man of action he was.
20:27That's about the size of it.
20:29I've got Ken trying to contact the girlfriend now.
20:31Okay.
20:34What's your assessment of the situation?
20:36You've talked to Ant.
20:37How do you think we handle this?
20:39I think he's cornered and he's scared.
20:42My gut feeling is if we sit this out, we can wear him down.
20:46We still don't know what's happened to DCI Meadows and D.I. Manson.
20:49I don't think we can exclude the worst-case scenario.
20:52But nothing in what Ant has said so far suggests he's got anyone but Valentine in there.
20:56But what if we're wrong?
20:58What if Antony O'Brien's already used his gun?
21:01Why wouldn't he use it again?
21:02You think we should send in SO-19?
21:04Sir, I think negotiation is the only way to get a positive outcome here.
21:08You said yourself they had no plan, no preparation.
21:12These boys are not professional gunmen.
21:14But he's out of his depth.
21:16And he's under pressure.
21:17More pressure than he's ever seen.
21:18But if we go in, the bullets could fly.
21:27Sir?
21:27OK.
21:32I think we keep him talking and wait it out.
21:34But we have to keep things calm in there for BC Valentine's sake.
21:37I am not prepared to lose another officer.
21:39Sir.
21:40Is that clear?
21:44Some of my colleagues think that Ben may be telling the truth.
21:47That he may be innocent.
21:50After all Bradley said.
21:52I listened to my son tell your colleague how his dad had told him filthy things.
22:05Made him promise not to tell anyone.
22:09Touched him.
22:11And they think he could be innocent.
22:13Ben said he was trying to help him.
22:19He was trying.
22:20This is making me sick.
22:28The defence are asking for bail.
22:32You mean he could be helped?
22:34On the street?
22:36What about Bradley?
22:37No, no.
22:38He couldn't contact you with the boys.
22:39That would be a condition of his bail.
22:40Come on.
22:41You know what he's capable of.
22:46He's not a criminal, what I see.
22:48He's sick.
22:51Terry.
22:52That's the point.
22:55He's both.
23:11And I need to know that everyone in there with you is still okay.
23:18Everybody's fine.
23:19But it's hot.
23:21We'll get the heating tear down now.
23:24We're not going to be here long though.
23:26We're getting out of here and you're going to let us.
23:27Remember?
23:28Remember?
23:28Okay.
23:30Maybe you should ask your father if he needs anything.
23:33Like what?
23:34Well, he's ill, remember?
23:36Maybe I could speak to him.
23:38No, wait.
23:39It's just you and me.
23:40Okay.
23:41But I need to know that PC Valentine is all right.
23:44He's fine.
23:44You're not talking to him.
23:46Let's talk about you getting us out of here.
23:49Anthony, you need to know that we have your brother in custody.
23:54The van you're going to be using has been taken away.
23:58The only thing we need to talk about now is how to resolve this situation without anyone else getting hurt.
24:03That's what you want.
24:05That's what I want.
24:09Thought we had that mobile blocked.
24:15No.
24:16No, love.
24:17I had no idea they were going to do this.
24:19Dad.
24:19Please, stay away.
24:22Dad.
24:23I'm all right.
24:24I'll be fine.
24:25Mr. Stom's stomach bug I picked up.
24:27Dad, let me speak to her.
24:28Please, son.
24:29I'm talking.
24:30Dad!
24:36Hello, Mum.
24:38Can you call Gillian for me, please?
24:40She won't speak to me.
24:43Look.
24:44Tell her I need to talk to her.
24:45Tell her about what's happening.
24:48Tell her...
24:49Tell her...
24:50I'm still...
24:53Lola.
25:01Terry, you okay?
25:02Mr. Benjamin Perkins, you are charged that between May 2000 and September 2004, you did intentionally touch a boy under the age of 13, and that the touching was sexual, contravening Section 7 of the Sexual Offences Act of 2003.
25:24Do you plead guilty or not guilty?
25:29Not guilty.
25:30Not guilty.
25:33So what's happening?
25:35If he's still got a functioning mobile, that's another link to the outside world, and they're with him.
25:39It stops me getting inside his head.
25:41I spoke to the officer from TIU, so he's still waiting on the service, provided they get back to him.
25:46He's probably waiting on some muffie to get the right authority.
25:49There is another option.
25:51Would you add the signal from him?
25:53Can we do that?
25:54Yeah.
25:54An explosive as expert could, but it means that every mobile phone and possibly every life support system in a small radius would also go down.
26:01PC, you're handsome.
26:02Listen, I need you to chase up the test results that St. Hugh's did on Roland O'Brien earlier today.
26:07We need to know what we're dealing with there.
26:08Do we know what kind of tests, sir?
26:09X-rays.
26:11Ken, get back on to TIU.
26:12Tell them what a high priority this is.
26:14In fact, tell them there are lives at stake here.
26:16Sir.
26:18Chilly Nellis.
26:19And O'Brien's girlfriend.
26:24Mr. Perkins, this matter is adjourned until the date already given.
26:28You are to be remanded in custody until that date.
26:33Grounds do exist for believing if you were given bail, you would fail to submit yourself to custody when required.
26:39We also believe you have no fixed address at this moment.
26:42Terry, you said you'd look after me.
26:45Take Mr. Perkins away.
26:46Oh, please.
26:47Terry, you said you'd look after me.
26:49Terry, please.
26:50Do you really think DCI Meadows and DI Manson could be dead?
27:00I must hope not.
27:01But we both know what can happen when guns are involved.
27:03Yeah.
27:04Look, I never thanked you for what you did.
27:06When I saw you, we had to do something.
27:08You were brilliant.
27:08I owe you.
27:10Look, you know I try and act all cool and smooth.
27:13I feel, I guess.
27:14But I'm not like him at all.
27:16Not really.
27:17You're joking.
27:17I guess I get nervous.
27:21In general or just around me?
27:24Especially around you.
27:26I used to really intimidate me.
27:28Little old me.
27:30And what about now?
27:32Has anything changed?
27:34I think so.
27:37I hope so.
27:38I hope so.
27:47Are you Winnie?
27:52I think it's a draw.
27:54Just got a simple hostage scenario at the tackle now.
27:58You did a good job back there.
28:00You know, if we both ever get through today,
28:02you should let me buy you that drink that I promised you.
28:05Come find me later.
28:06He could be waiting a long time.
28:15The first thing you need to know about Ant is that when he's not very bright.
28:19Right.
28:19No, that's how he got himself and his dad into this.
28:21But I want to see him come out there alive.
28:23You know, if you let me talk to him,
28:25then there's a better chance of that happening.
28:26Ant has a police officer in there.
28:28Do you understand?
28:29We can't let you talk to him until we're sure it will help the situation
28:32and not inflame it.
28:34Yeah, I know that.
28:35But I've got something to say.
28:36I know he's going to want to hear.
28:38And what would that be?
28:40He's going to be a daddy.
28:53You know what you never said to me?
28:55What?
28:56Come and visit.
28:59And sit by the pool and just talk and have a drink.
29:04He never said that.
29:09I just wanted you to be proud of me like I was always proud of you.
29:12Proud of me?
29:16Been looking for a hero.
29:18You got the wrong man, son.
29:19You're the man, Dad.
29:21Uncle Ross said you were one of the best.
29:24Uncle Ross?
29:26He'd say anything after a few pints.
29:30I was never a big-time villain.
29:34I was a foot soldier.
29:36I did what I was told and got paid for it.
29:38You know what I do now?
29:41I run a little shop near the beach selling postcards and souvenirs.
29:44I don't even own the thing.
29:49No, no.
29:50I've seen the photos.
29:52The villa and the pool and everything.
29:54Oh, yeah.
29:56Nice place.
29:58Belong to a woman I shaked up with for a while till she chucked me out.
30:02You know why I never asked you to come and visit?
30:09Hmm?
30:10Because I live in one room.
30:13And it's rented.
30:17Oi.
30:19Give me my drink.
30:20Well, let me have one hand free.
30:27It's not like I'm going anywhere with this lot hanging off me.
30:31Okay.
30:33Okay.
30:33I heard you talking about this girl of yours.
30:53Gillian.
30:54What about her?
30:57Sounds like you've had a bit of a falling out.
31:01We've all been there.
31:03We've all...
31:05You don't know anything about me and Gillian.
31:10No.
31:13Well, I'd say you think she's the most important thing that's ever happened to you.
31:20Oh?
31:23Sometimes.
31:25Especially when she's talking about settling down, getting married, having kids.
31:31There's...
31:32There's this feeling in your chest.
31:36You find it hard to breathe.
31:42Gone?
31:45But you miss her when she's not around.
31:47And you wish you'd never had that row about spending more time out with the boys.
31:57What's wrong with this?
32:00The phone's gone dead.
32:01They've cut it off.
32:03It's standard practice.
32:04How am I doing?
32:07How am I doing?
32:14You're wrong.
32:16All that stuff about the marriage and kids.
32:17I was the one who wanted all that.
32:30I think we have to use Gillian.
32:31I'm not so sure, sir.
32:33The minute we put her on the phone to Ant, it becomes unpredictable.
32:36We can't control the situation.
32:38I think that's a chance we have to take.
32:40We have a real opportunity here, before this thing becomes a stalemate,
32:43to break the deadlock and get everyone out of there.
32:45If that's the call you make, obviously I'll work with it, sir.
32:48Is this even the slightest possibility?
32:51That maybe in half an hour I can get them the hospital back?
32:54I think that's a chance I've got to grab.
32:58Frances.
33:02Right.
33:03I need you to focus on the positive side of things, Gillian.
33:13Gillian.
33:15Keep it simple and clear.
33:18Part of his reason for doing this was to impress you.
33:21Remember that.
33:22Don't say anything that suggests you think this was a bad idea.
33:25I know how to talk to Ant.
33:26Tell him, I'm here with the police,
33:28because I want you to put the gun down and come out.
33:31I have some very good news.
33:32Yeah, we're going to do this.
33:33We're just going to talk about it.
33:34I don't want to hear anything about problems you may have had in the past.
33:38No reopening of old arguments.
33:40Is that clear?
33:42If at any time I think this is going in a direction I don't like,
33:46I will cut the call.
33:48Do you understand?
33:50Trust me.
33:52I know, Anne.
33:57I'll miss you.
33:58You didn't call me.
34:03I just, um...
34:05I had to be on my own for a while, and I just think things through.
34:08I miss you.
34:12You shouldn't have split up with me, you know?
34:15Anne, I'm with the police, because...
34:19Some of the things I said, I don't mean...
34:24Anne, you've got to give this up, yeah?
34:26You've got to come out.
34:29There's something I've got to tell you.
34:31Some good news.
34:32Dad, I'm kind of...
34:47Julian's pregnant.
34:52We're having a baby.
34:54That kind of changes things, doesn't it?
34:57There's one more reason why all this is a very bad idea.
35:01You're OK, though, aren't you?
35:04I mean, when did you find out?
35:07You should have told me.
35:09Why didn't you call me?
35:11You've got to give this up, Anne, and come out, yeah, for me and the baby.
35:16I kept calling you to talk about us and things on your mobile and at home.
35:22Anne, listen to me.
35:24Your mum and dad said you weren't there.
35:25I didn't know how to contact you.
35:27I haven't been at home for the past couple of weeks.
35:30I've just been staying at...
35:31It's a friend's.
35:33No-one you know.
35:38Aunt.
35:41What friend?
35:46From work?
35:49Who's from work?
35:49Sir, I need help.
35:56You've got to get me some help.
36:00What's this friend's name?
36:03Oh, I mean, it's a woman friend.
36:07Woman.
36:12Tell me the truth, Gillian.
36:14Aunt, you're not listening to me.
36:16You're seeing somebody else, aren't you?
36:17Why do you always do this?
36:19I'll kill him!
36:21I'll find out!
36:23Who is it?
36:23I don't...
36:27Do it!
36:28Ah!
36:29Ah!
36:29Ah!
36:30Ah!
36:30Ah!
36:30Ah!
36:30Ah!
36:30Ah!
36:31Ah!
36:31Ah!
36:32Ah!
36:32Ah!
36:33Ah!
36:33Ah!
36:34Ah!
36:34Ah!
36:35Ah!
36:35Ah!
36:36Ah!
36:37Ah!
36:38Ah!
36:39Ah!
36:40Ah!
36:41Ah!
36:42Ah!
36:43Ah!
36:44Ah!
36:45Ah!
36:46You've been having it away with some other bloke, and now she's trying to tell me that
36:51the kid's mine!
36:52Ah!
36:52Your dad needs medical help.
36:54Listen to me.
36:55He's... he's sick and he's getting even worse.
36:57Do you think I'm stupid?
36:59Ah!
37:00Ah!
37:01Ah!
37:02Ah!
37:03Ah!
37:04Ah!
37:05Ah!
37:06Ah!
37:07Ah!
37:08Ah!
37:09Ah!
37:10You do what I say!
37:11Ah!
37:12I'm telling you.
37:13You've got to get him to a doctor.
37:14You've got to do it now.
37:15Ah!
37:16Ah!
37:17Ah!
37:18Ah!
37:19Come on.
37:20Here.
37:21Hold on to me.
37:22Hold on to me.
37:23He needs help.
37:24Can't you see that?
37:25Shut up!
37:26Ah!
37:27Ah!
37:28Ah!
37:29Ah!
37:30Look.
37:31Hello.
37:32Oh.
37:33My dad's sick in here.
37:34Ah!
37:35Send the doctor in now.
37:36Now!
37:37I can't do that, Ant.
37:38The only way he can get the treatment he needs...
37:40No!
37:41Look.
37:42You better hear this first.
37:47I've just spoken to the doctor that did the x-rays on Roland O'Brien before all this started.
37:52And the results show air under the diaphragm, which is probably caused by a perforated intestine.
37:58How bad is that?
38:00Well, if we don't get him out of there and into surgery within the next few hours, he'll probably die.
38:05Okay.
38:07Using Gillian was a mistake.
38:08I put my hands up to that.
38:09But where does that leave us now?
38:10Obviously, we don't want to send medical staff into a hostage situation.
38:15But our priority has to be to get help to Roland O'Brien.
38:18Definitely.
38:19Plus, if Roland dies in there, we've no idea how his son's going to react.
38:22What do we think?
38:23That, coupled with what happened with Gillian, could push him over the edge?
38:26It's a real possibility.
38:27His brother hardly described a well-being.
38:29It's a real possibility.
38:30His brother hardly described a well-being.
38:32It's a real possibility.
38:33His brother hardly described a well-balanced man.
38:36I don't know.
38:37I can't see Ant deciding to go out in a blaze of glory, taking Roger with him.
38:41Do you want to look PC Valentine in the eye and promise him that?
38:43Give me another chance to talk Ant into coming out, sir.
38:46Just a little more time.
38:50Sir, the hostage negotiation team have arrived.
38:53They're downstairs.
38:54Tell them to wait down there on standby.
39:03I'll be down to see them in a few minutes.
39:06But I think we're doing everything we can here.
39:10Ant?
39:11He's quiet again now.
39:25That's how it goes.
39:27Anthony, your dad's really ill.
39:31We need to treat him soon.
39:32He's alright.
39:33The pain's gone and...
39:34He's not out of danger, Ant.
39:35Is Gillian still there?
39:36I have to tell her I'm sorry.
39:37She knows you didn't mean what you said to her.
39:38She's waiting for you.
39:39I-I can't help it sometimes.
39:40I know she means a lot to you.
39:41Joe.
39:42You don't know, I've spoiled it.
39:44You don't know.
39:45It's complicated.
39:46But it's all about having sin.
39:48I have to...
39:49It's hard to come to her.
39:50I'm sorry then.
39:51We're falling in this.
39:52You can't get down here.
39:53The pain's gone and...
39:54It's not out of danger, Ant.
39:55Harp.
39:56Is Gillian still there?
39:57I have to tell her I'm sorry.
39:58She knows you didn't mean what you said to her.
39:59She was waiting for you.
40:00I-I can't help it sometimes.
40:01I know she means a lot to you.
40:03Joe.
40:05You didn't have spoilt it.
40:06I-I can't help it.
40:07spoiled it. As soon as you come out, you can speak to her then. Let's finish this now,
40:18eh? Let me get medical help to you, Dad. I've really screwed things up, haven't I? This
40:33is all a mess. This isn't it? I've let Gillian down. Oh, my God. Maybe Gillian's right. Maybe
40:57I am a loser. For Gillian and the baby, for your father and for your own sake, let's end
41:07this. Show them how much they mean to you. Call this thing off and come out.
41:27It's okay, Dad. It's okay, Dad. It's nearly over now. I'm going to finish it. Now, we can,
41:41you know, we can... No! All units, go, go, go!
41:51MF-19 on me! Medic, stand back!
41:56Medic! Medic! Medic! Medic! Medic!
42:03About bloody time, sir. Back the gun. You okay? Just about. I just wanted to show
42:25them I wasn't a loser. I know you did, Ant. I know. Now, what about the other two?
42:37I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it.
42:47Well, you took your time. Four hours. Four hours we've been stuck in here.
42:59Glad to see you've not lost your charm. Well, you just concentrate on doing your
43:02job, DC Masters, instead of always trying to antagonise your senior officers.
43:06You see, how long does it take to search one hospital floor?
43:09You should have known you both tried to blame someone else for the mess you got yourself into.
43:12What's that supposed to mean? Can you manage, honey?
43:15Yeah. Better things to do with your time.
43:18She's been great. Hero of the hour.
43:21What a day, eh? It's not over yet. I think we're both way in the back of the factory.
43:27Yeah, I'll be, um, only in a minute. You might have somebody.
43:31Yeah. That nurse. Nick. I was gonna see if he fancied a drink.
43:36Oh, he's already left. I saw him go about ten minutes ago.
43:39Yeah? Uh, Dom. It's just a thought.
43:46And then suddenly, Anthony O'Brien got a gun out, sir.
43:49Is there anything else you feel I should know about the events of the day?
43:52Um, well, on a broader level, sir, I feel that the presence of DC Masters in CID
43:58could be detrimental to the stability of the department.
44:01This is the DC Masters who just dealt effectively with a very volatile situation?
44:05Well, yes, sir. Of course, I accept that. It's just that her overall attitude, I think, can be, um, counterproductive.
44:12Thank you, D.I. Manson. I'll bear that in mind.
44:15Sir. You in the debrief, sir?
44:18Yes, but before we do that, perhaps you could give me your assessment of DC Masters.
44:22Well, uh, she's got some, uh, good qualities. But I suppose her forthright approach could be...
44:29Counterproductive.
44:30Yeah, you could say that, yeah.
44:32That's interesting. D.I. Manson just said much the same.
44:35It's been a long time since you two agreed on anything.
44:38What's this about, sir?
44:39It's about you as senior officer finding a way to work with all the members of Sunhill CID, including your D.I. and DC Masters.
44:51I'd like to say it isn't always like this.
44:53I wouldn't have it any other way.
44:56You make quite a first impression.
44:58Oh, yeah.

45:03I hate Christmas.
45:05Look, I'm going back to base now. Do you need a little bit?
45:08Oh, um, thanks, but I'm fine. My girlfriend's picking me up.
