00:00Well, it's marvellous what you can do in two years if you've got the nerve and the ruthlessness and luck.
00:15Oh, no, I don't think it had anything to do with luck, did it, Dennis?
00:18No, not luck, more to do with hard work, wasn't it?
00:22Oh, there was quite a bit of that.
00:23Yes, mostly my hard work, wouldn't you say?
00:25Now, look, Tony.
00:26Now you look, Dennis.
00:26Keep your voice down.
00:27Yeah, and I embarrass you in front of these good people.
00:31Come into my office.
00:33Oh, I see.
00:34You don't want your innocent slaves to know who it was who was responsible for the system that pays the mortgage.
00:40Well, let me enlighten your darkness.
00:44I'm Tony Gray, and I'm responsible for the modal system.
00:47They're all my little buttons you're playing with.
00:49Oh, no, no, no, save your applause for the leader, the talentless Mr Longfield.
00:53I want to talk to you, Tony.
00:54Yes, I thought you might.
00:57Oh, by the way, don't stop working.
01:01It, uh, upsets.
01:06Oh, boon, sesame.
01:07Hello, junior.
01:08You again?
01:10Listen, Tony, I can get you a job with Peter Gilbert.
01:13Oh, no, stuff, Peter Gilbert.
01:14I want my own job.
01:16Things have changed.
01:17Well, then, change them back.
01:20Look, I built this business.
01:21My knowledge, my ideas, my energy.
01:24You bled me dry.
01:26Make a simple financial deal with a bank, and you get the whole lot.
01:29Well, I'm back, and I want my share.
01:31Nothing's changed.
01:32Yes, it has.
01:33You've been in prison.
01:34Been in prison?
01:35What's that got to do with computers?
01:37A lot.
01:38We handle top security work now.
01:40No client's going to have confidence in an organisation that employs ex-convicts.
01:45We handle bullion transfers, diamond shipments, currency in bulk.
01:49It's impossible.
01:50Ex-convicts?
01:51I killed a woman in a motor accident.
01:54Doesn't matter.
01:55You went to prison for two years for manslaughter.
01:58I couldn't have you working here.
01:59You've got a record.
02:01Yes, I know whose fault's that.
02:03I was working 18 hours a day, sleeping in the office, drinking too much, having a nervous
02:08breakdown because you set impossible deadlines.
02:10When I killed that woman, I was so exhausted I didn't even see her.
02:13I hadn't slept for three nights.
02:14But you insisted that I went to Manchester.
02:17The whole business depends on it, remember?
02:19Well, I paid.
02:21Now it's your turn.
02:23I want my partnership back.
02:25I bought you out two years ago.
02:26For 4,000 quid when I was in trouble and needed the money.
02:30It was more than you put in.
02:31I poured three years of my bloody life into this business, you bastard, and I'll smash
02:35it.
02:36And you before I finish.
02:40Now, what's more, I think your taste is appalling.
02:44Any...
02:44Ah.
02:45I think your Lord and Master need something of a wash and brush up.
02:51I can't get out of this place!
02:52Longfield!
03:15Longfield!
03:17You filthy, rotten bastard!
03:19Longfield!
03:23I'll get you!
03:25I'll get my job back!
03:28Longfield!
03:30Longfield!
03:32Call the police.
03:33proved!
03:35Good!
03:37I found the police.
03:43Thank you to me and Tom.
03:44I found the police.
03:47That's bad for me.
03:50I found Houston.
03:50I found the police back there, and I found one person through this.
03:52How did I find the police window and I found the police?
03:53You found this door and the security?
03:57Ever been there!
03:58They've not found this night.
03:58I found all that night.
04:00They're very young.
04:01They're kind of isolated around me, and I found nothing different.
04:02Starting price, 11 to 8.
04:1911 to 8?
04:19Never mind, Bill. Even Emerson Fittipaldi makes mistakes.
04:24I think I've lost the use of me legs.
04:26Never mind. You'll get a disability pension.
04:28How long have we got to wait here?
04:30Every day till Askins realises there's nothing in it.
04:33Shall we buy a tent?
04:34Ah, seriously, gov. Look, everybody knows this guy Burnham's gone straight, right?
04:39I mean, he's into credit transfers, that sort of stuff.
04:41He hasn't put a foot over the line for years.
04:43That's not the attitude, George. You're behind the times.
04:47Our Burnham's what we now call a target criminal.
04:49Mr. Askins wants us to keep ahead of the game.
04:52So if we sit here patiently, sooner or later,
04:55someone with a naughty mind's going to come along and pay him a visit.
04:57When that happens...
04:58We'll be too old to get out of the car.
05:00Exactly.
05:03Hey, George.
05:05Hmm?
05:05Who's that?
05:09He's not in the file.
05:11No?
05:12Smudge him when he comes out.
05:15Are you all right?
05:16Ah, Mr. Gray.
05:18I'm sorry we couldn't get together earlier,
05:20but things have been rather busy.
05:22Miss Newton.
05:22I've been asking to see you for two weeks.
05:29Yes.
05:30You've been away for a while, haven't you?
05:32But your real interest is in computers.
05:35What would you like to discuss?
05:38Computers.
05:38I designed these layouts.
05:43One entire system for time-sharing subscribers.
05:47Is one of the best of its kind.
05:50We have no real need of a computer, Mr. Gray.
05:53But you may be interested to know who uses the computer, Mr. Burnham.
05:56Longfield has some very important clients.
05:59Security firms, gold dealers, currency printers.
06:02You see, once the information is fed into the computer,
06:04then it is 100% secret.
06:07And no unauthorized person can get at it.
06:10Yes, I'm sure that is of great importance to such clients.
06:12Now, why have you come to see me?
06:16Because the information stored in the computer may interest you.
06:22But you said it was impossible to get.
06:24I said that no unauthorized person could get at it.
06:26How could you get at the computer now that you've been fired?
06:29There is one way.
06:31I built the computer, don't forget.
06:33What could you ask your computer, Mr. Gray?
06:36The date and the secret route of a shipment of gold from a dealer in the city.
06:40Would that interest you, Mr. Burnham?
06:41Well, that would depend on the accuracy of the information and the risks involved.
06:47I don't know anyone who would put up the money without proof that it would work.
06:51Proof? You shall have, Mr. Burnham.
06:52I don't like unpleasantness in any form.
06:55And certainly when it involves someone I work with.
06:57Of course, sir.
06:58The man's so unpredictable.
07:00One never knows, you see.
07:02I've given orders he's not to be allowed in the building.
07:04And you don't want to prefer charges against him for what happened this morning?
07:06Well, as I say, I don't want to be, well, unpleasant.
07:09I think he needs help more than punishment.
07:20He saw Burnham, all right?
07:21How'd you know that?
07:23I was nice to the tea lady.
07:25You naughty old policeman.
07:26She was a naughty old tea lady.
07:28George's pictures are getting good, aren't they?
07:33Yeah, do you think you can put the word in for me, cub?
07:35You know, get the concession for the squad dance.
07:37There's only way you'll ever nick him.
07:39Burnham's too smart.
07:41He doesn't need to take risks anymore.
07:43He's quite the little tycoon now, Bernie.
07:44He'll make the mistakes sooner or later.
07:46They always do.
07:46Come on, Jack.
07:47Be your age.
07:48You've seen him walk out of number one court of the old Bailey twice already.
07:50Only because serious crime squad couldn't make it stick.
07:53Well, neither will you.
07:54Your way.
07:54Expect to find him waiting in a bank one Sunday morning,
07:57cradling a shotgun, wearing a stocking mask and a big smile.
08:00Attention to detail.
08:01Every last detail is the only way.
08:03Is this the only new face?
08:04The only one we don't know.
08:06Who's on now?
08:07Jono, till 12.
08:09Right, we'll get that lad off to C-11,
08:10C-R-O and Salita's reports.
08:11The lot, right?
08:12All right, sir.
08:13Straight away.
08:14Crawler.
08:15Hi, Jack.
08:17Good boy, Cheats.
08:18Carolyn.
08:24Motor cars.
08:26That's the last thing I would have thought you'd want to be involved in.
08:30How are you?
08:33You're looking great.
08:35Dennis Longfield.
08:36Yes, I know.
08:37He told me.
08:38Longfield paid a fortune out of his own pocket to have your face done.
08:41Tony, I look dreadful.
08:42Yes, I know that too.
08:44Steve told me.
08:44Why didn't you let me come to the hospital?
08:49I was out on bail for a week after the accident.
08:51You wouldn't let me see you.
08:53I didn't want you to see me like that.
08:56You never answered my letters.
09:02You never visited me.
09:04It wasn't fun in that place.
09:05It wasn't fun for me either.
09:07Maybe you wouldn't even let me say that I was sorry.
09:11That woman's son came to see me.
09:12Do you know that?
09:13He told me that he'd stopped hating me.
09:15I told him that I was sorry.
09:18I told him it was my fault that his mother was dead.
09:21He even talked about what she was like.
09:23But you...
09:24Oh, Tony, do I really look the same?
09:28Last year I looked hideous before Dennis found that surgeon.
09:30Good night, Caroline.
09:31Good night, Bill.
09:33There's no difference.
09:35You're beautiful.
09:36Look up.
09:38That horse went down, George.
09:39It serves you're right for listening to other people's phone conversations.
09:42The headmaster's been looking for you.
09:44Oh, yeah.
09:44And Mr. Mystery.
09:46Oh, sorry, Guy.
09:46All right.
09:47Mr. Mystery.
09:49Gray.
09:49Anthony John.
09:50What, villain?
09:50No, not really.
09:51Just got a predilection for running down old ladies on zebra crossings.
09:54Manslaughter.
09:56Oh, a computer man.
09:58Oh, Bernie really is organising his crime.
10:01Well, I'd better go and get my bottom smacked.
10:03It hurts him more than it hurts you.
10:05Oh, shut up.
10:08Come.
10:11Ah, Jack.
10:13I wanted you earlier rather urgently, as it happened.
10:15Yeah.
10:16Yeah, Gav.
10:16I, uh, I was, uh, you know.
10:20Hmm.
10:21Look, Jack, we've got a lead on this man of yours.
10:23His name is Gray.
10:24Yeah, I saw the CRO docket.
10:26Yeah, he was a computer man, went down for manslaughter.
10:29He's only a jack artist, isn't he?
10:30Yes, well, we've got some more.
10:31The Collator's report from the Nick at Millerton.
10:34They received a complaint about Gray from his former business partner,
10:38a Dennis Longfield of Data Task Computers.
10:43Evidently, Gray created a disturbance there this morning.
10:46Threw a whiskey bottle.
10:47Ruined a rubber plant.
10:49Oh, dear, oh, dear.
10:52Some people.
10:54Well, it hardly makes him public enemy number one, though, Gav, does it?
10:58It depends on what he's up to with Burnham.
11:00Well, do you want me to talk to him?
11:02No.
11:03Build up a profile, there.
11:05Check out Longfield.
11:06Find out where Gray's living.
11:08See if he's found a job yet.
11:09You know the sort of thing.
11:10How is she?
11:10You OK, Tommy?
11:11All about the same.
11:12A bit better, I think.
11:14A little present for you, 500 pounds.
11:16You know, Tony, you don't have to.
11:18And another thousand to follow.
11:20Listen, Steve, you were the only one of my so-called friends
11:23that came to visit me when I was in that prison.
11:24I would have gone mad without you.
11:26Just put it towards that farm in Ireland you're always talking about.
11:30Should I tell Kate?
11:32No.
11:33No, when the grand arrives, just pack up and go.
11:36What about the other business?
11:37Well, I'll do exactly as we said.
11:39Wear the dark suit, all right?
11:40He and I were partners.
11:41I handle the business side.
11:43He's a technical man.
11:45Nice.
11:45We build up the company together.
11:48But he drank a lot.
11:50Lost his license.
11:52Went on driving.
11:53One night he killed someone.
11:55Injured my secretary and went to prison.
11:57Well, as I told the uniformed man,
11:59he ranted and raved, threw an ashtray at me,
12:02broke things up in reception.
12:03He's very dangerous when he's drunk.
12:05I think he needs help.
12:07He feels he's got a grudge, then?
12:08Heaven knows why.
12:09I gave him his first big opportunity.
12:11Without me, he'd have been nothing.
12:13Not much now, is he?
12:21I didn't want to talk in there.
12:23It's a bit delicate.
12:24Oh?
12:25Yes, I'm a police officer.
12:27Sergeant Carter.
12:29It's about a Mr Gray.
12:30Anthony John Gray.
12:31We understand you're a friend of his.
12:32Well, yes, I know him.
12:34But what does that have to do with the police?
12:36Well, it's the accident.
12:37You know, the statement you made at the trial.
12:39But that was two years ago.
12:41He's out of prison now.
12:42Yeah, but from our records,
12:44we understand you were once a close friend.
12:46Listen, Tony's a good man and he's had a very bad time.
12:51He's out of prison now.
12:54But he can't get his old job back,
12:56so he's going to start afresh.
12:58If you persecute him,
12:59you'll destroy what little confidence he has left.
13:01We're not persecuting him, Miss Stewart.
13:03Why all this, then?
13:05He's starting afresh, you say?
13:07Well, all I know is that he's starting his own business.
13:09Computers?
13:10I suppose so.
13:11That's what he's good at.
13:13Well, I think somebody's agreed to back him.
13:15What the girl told George is true.
13:18And Grey's sugar daddy is Burnham.
13:21He's registered a company called Band Automation.
13:24Computer specialist, apparently.
13:26Ding-a-ling-a-ling.
13:27Exactly.
13:28I've ordered up all their publicity material, etc.
13:31We're on to something here, Jack.
13:34Promise.
13:35So I told him to leave you alone,
13:37and he went.
13:39Baby, once you're known to them,
13:41then they never leave you alone.
13:43It's not just me.
13:44It's happening all the time.
13:46Guy comes out, he can't get a job.
13:48Hounded by those gorillas every day and night.
13:51Eventually he thinks we're...
13:52Oh, what the hell, so he goes back to crime.
13:55Keeps the police in work.
13:56At least it's their job.
13:58What's Dennis Longfield's excuse?
14:00What was yours?
14:04I haven't got one.
14:07I resented you for the accident,
14:08but that soon went.
14:09I wanted to come and see you,
14:11but for some reason I just couldn't.
14:12So that was part of Longfield's bargain.
14:15He'd pay for your plastic surgeon
14:17so long as you dropped me.
14:18I wouldn't have agreed to that.
14:20That's probably why he didn't say so in so many words.
14:24But that's what he meant, isn't it?
14:26He really does loathes me.
14:32He's jealous of you.
14:34Younger, cleverer.
14:36You frightened him.
14:37You always did.
14:39Do I frighten you?
14:42No.
14:44Oh, hello.
14:45When I told you that I was going to start again,
14:48I meant everything.
14:50Everything from scratch.
14:52Can I start again with you?
14:54No.
14:54What would you say if I told you that I was going to start again better than before?
15:04What would you say if I asked you to come to Brazil with me?
15:08Like next week?
15:09It says here the cursor will guide the operator.
15:13What's a cursor?
15:15Someone we nick for obscene language.
15:19Sorry.
15:19So you bloody well should be.
15:21You're nicked.
15:23You get worse and worse, you do.
15:24You know that funny.
15:25How's it going, Jack?
15:26Oh, it's hard, good.
15:28Yes, I think you're going to need technical help on this one.
15:31Oh, we will, yeah.
15:32Eh?
15:33Yes, Governor?
15:35What's the matter with you two?
15:36Nothing.
15:37I'm just saying we will need some help on the technical side.
15:39Jack, I'm in no mood for a wind-up.
15:41It's not a wind-up.
15:41We're agreeing with you.
15:43We can't be one-man bands anymore.
15:45You're always saying that to me, is, Governor?
15:46So, we bought a new player.
15:49Jenny.
15:50Could you come over there?
15:53Dr Smart, this is Detective Chief Inspector Haskins.
15:56Jennifer Smart.
15:57How do you do, Mr Haskins?
15:59Dr Smart works for the Home Office, Guff.
16:00We found her lurking around the police national computer at Hendon.
16:04She's interested in our current problem.
16:06My boss says I can spend a day or two with you.
16:08Yeah, it's just a matter of you sorting out the paperwork, Guff.
16:27What's your game, then?
16:44What's your game, then?
16:48What's your game, then?
16:50What's your game, then?
16:56The facilities in this hotel are excellent, but far from cheap.
17:26I hope you're going to prove worthy of the trust I'm placing in you, Mr Gray.
17:32You mean I haven't yet?
17:33You haven't done anything yet, Mr Gray.
17:40Why can't you arrest him?
17:42On what charge?
17:43I don't know. Public menace. Threatening behaviour.
17:46But he hasn't threatened you, though, has he?
17:47He's harassing me. He killed someone once, you know, in a car accident.
17:52Look, apart from what you've told us, there's no evidence against him.
17:54What do you mean, apart from what I've told you?
17:56Well, you say you saw him running.
17:58I don't say I saw him. I saw him.
18:01Mr Longfield.
18:03Look, up to now, whiskey bottle's been smashed, you say you've been insulted,
18:07and you've found an alarm clock in your car.
18:09Now, the local police force deal with that sort of thing.
18:11I'm more concerned with any possibility of a major crime.
18:14What sort of major crime?
18:16Well, you say you handle a lot of secret information for clients.
18:18Now, is there anything in particular that a rival organisation say might like to get its hands up?
18:23Well, industrial espionage? Not a chance.
18:26That's the whole point of our system.
18:28Large amounts of information are processed and stored here precisely because with us they're completely safe.
18:34The system's foolproof.
18:35Who designed the system, Mr Longfield?
18:37It's our own system.
18:39Did Anthony Gray design it?
18:40He did work on it.
18:41That was two years ago.
18:43Our codings and classifications have changed many times since his day.
18:46So you've got no worries about fraud or theft of information?
18:50Anything like that?
18:51No, Inspector.
18:52And I wouldn't like the slightest suggestion of that sort of thing to be made in police quarters or anywhere else.
18:57In my business, confidence is everything.
19:00Just the same, Mr Longfield.
19:02You'd have no objection if we brought in our own computer expert.
19:05Just to satisfy ourselves that we're doing our job properly.
19:08We like people that have confidence in us too, you know.
19:12Here we are, Mr Gray.
19:14Mr Winter will coordinate the operation for you, taking care of the ancillary areas.
19:20Yes.
19:21Oh, it's time for me to go.
19:23Anything you need, I'll be glad to help.
19:26Thank you, Mr. Burns.
19:27Oh, don't thank me yet, Mr Gray.
19:29Quiet.
19:31Quiet.
19:32We're at the telephone.
19:36Hello.
19:37Glad you made it.
19:38Good morning, and welcome to the course.
19:47My name is Tony Gray, and I shall be concerned with the training of those of you who are programmers.
19:53Tomorrow we shall be joined by those whose job it will be to form your backup team.
19:56And, of course, we still have many more applicants to interview who may join us in the next few days.
20:02But Longfield's sure it was Gray?
20:03Positive.
20:04If it wasn't him, it was his ghost.
20:05Longfield's terrified.
20:07Doppelganger?
20:08And what?
20:09Never mind.
20:11Oh, look it up.
20:12Where's the four-trend firecracker?
20:15You mean our Jenny?
20:16She's at Longfield's.
20:18Longfield's?
20:18Yeah, she's trying to find out if there's a connection between Burnham and that trouble at Longfield's.
20:22That's a more obvious connection.
20:24What about this?
20:24That.
20:25A career in computers.
20:27Are you worth 5,000 per annum?
20:29If you have above-average intelligence or under 35 with an interest in automation and computers,
20:34contact 230-9992.
20:37It's the number that Burnham's taken at the Heathrow Hotel.
20:40Well, I think Dr Smart should enrol there.
20:44And you should move into the hotel for a day or two.
20:47On hand, but undercover, in case you're plucked by any of Burnham's known heavies.
20:51Well, we'll go tonight, eh?
20:53Separate rooms?
21:03I'm Miss Stewart.
21:04I do have a reservation.
21:06Oh, everything is going extremely well.
21:08Well, the course is virtually full.
21:12Good.
21:13Now, what about the serious business?
21:16Right.
21:17As I told you, Longfield has a contract with Maynard's The Gold People.
21:22We know that Maynard's meant to marry to raise dollars for some of the richest oil estates in the Gulf.
21:27Now, you tell me that they're about to export a huge quantity tomorrow morning.
21:32My computer's job at Longfield is to work out the safest and quickest route for shipment
21:37and be using AA road information and weather reports and so on.
21:41But the computer only decides the route a few minutes before shipment.
21:46So that nobody can possibly know the route in advance.
21:49Except the computer.
21:51And me.
21:55What would you need?
21:56I would need a very powerful radio transmitter and a man who served in the, uh, Royal Marines.
22:07What?
22:08To break into Longfield's computer room?
22:10No.
22:11To get onto the roof, I'm going to plug the radio transmitter into the computer.
22:15Oh.
22:16Well, you see, when we installed the system,
22:18we had to take the GPO lines up through the computer suite ceiling and out via the roof.
22:22So we send the gold into a trap we've carefully prepared.
22:25Correct.
22:25And we'll be the only people, apart from Maynard's,
22:28who will ever know the phony route.
22:30Here's a list of what I'll need.
22:32It's very simple.
22:33You'll have it tomorrow.
22:34Excuse me.
22:44Oh, hello, darling super.
22:54If I would.
22:55Yeah, you would.
22:57How'd you get on?
22:58Sweet Felicity, I'll cry.
22:59Nothing?
23:00Six of the lads been out all day, not even a whisper.
23:03And what about C-11?
23:03Well, you've got to be joking.
23:05They're thinking of nominating Bernie for the Businessman of the Year award.
23:09Clean as a proverbial...
23:10No issues.
23:15Hello, Georgie.
23:16Jack.
23:18Good day, Johnny.
23:20Interesting.
23:22Oh, Longfield doesn't give much away.
23:23I had to work most of it out for myself.
23:26What exactly does Data Tasks do?
23:30Well, they perform tasks for business concerns.
23:32You mean payrolls, that sort of thing?
23:34Hmm.
23:34That's right.
23:35Payrolls, stock checks, market analysis.
23:37Most businesses can't afford their own computers,
23:39so they rent time from a computer company when they need it.
23:42Just like they're calling up laundry.
23:44Well, that's not all they do.
23:45They've got heavy contracts with merchant banks, for instance.
23:54Something to do with the transfer of money, I think.
23:56But, of course, I couldn't get access to any of that.
23:58How much would Gray know about all this?
24:00About the computer?
24:01Oh, everything.
24:02No, about the companies who use it and these codes.
24:06Nothing.
24:06The machine changes its codes all the time.
24:09That's what Longfield said.
24:09Unless Gray built some secret codes of his own into the system when he set it up
24:13and they were still maintained in the computer's memory.
24:15If he had done that, would he be able to get any real secrets?
24:18Well, it's possible, but I wouldn't think so for one minute.
24:21That's that, then.
24:22The thing is foolproof.
24:23Well, that's about it, I'm afraid.
24:25How are you fixed for tonight?
24:27Oh, Jack, I've got a few things I want to do.
24:29No, no, no, no.
24:30Gray's running a computer course at an airport hotel, the Heathrow.
24:34We'd like you to enroll and suss it up.
24:37Tonight?
24:38I'm afraid so, yeah.
24:39They've got selection tests at 7.30.
24:40Oh.
24:42Um.
24:43Well, I must make a phone call.
24:45I'll tell you what, love.
24:46I'll go past your place.
24:47Why don't I drive you back there and you'll pick up your overnight stuff?
24:50That's very kind, Georgie.
24:51You can come in my car, let me.
24:53I've got all my gear ready.
24:55I can take it straight there.
24:56It's no trouble at all, is it?
24:57It's very sweet of you, but I do have my own car here, thanks, all the same.
25:00I just must make a phone call.
25:01Listen, we're going to be at that hotel, but you don't know us, of course.
25:04And your name is Miss Phillips.
25:06Oh, I see.
25:09Well, I must rush.
25:11Um, Heathrow Hotel, 7.30.
25:14Bye.
25:15Bye.
25:17Is that all, Miss Phillips?
25:20Hey.
25:22How do you know where she lives?
25:25I asked her, didn't I?
25:26Healing, isn't it?
25:34No.
25:37Oh, no.
25:39It's not healing.
25:42It's definitely not healing.
25:46Right.
25:47Mr. Simmons?
25:48Yes.
25:50Miss Phillips?
25:51Yes.
25:51Mr. Peters?
25:54I'm Miss Currie.
25:55Badgers and Retardy Shepard, follow me to the Bicomber on this.
26:05Good luck, Jenny.
26:06Good luck, Jenny.
26:36Hello, Casey here.
26:58Hello, Jim.
27:01What?
27:05Nah, it couldn't be him.
27:06When?
27:10But I've just seen him.
27:13He's only a few yards away from where I am now.
27:20Okay, well, tell Longfield we'll come straight over.
27:25What do you mean, is everything all right?
27:28Tony, I've just seen that detective who called on yesterday.
27:32He's over there now.
27:33Miss Phillips, to a telephone, please.
27:38Miss Phillips, to a telephone.
27:39Come on.
27:48Miss Phillips?
27:50Hello.
27:51Hello, Jan.
27:53Listen, Longfield's in trouble again.
27:55Says he's seen Gray five minutes ago.
27:57Have you any idea what Gray's plans are for tonight?
28:00Well, there's a girl with him.
28:02She arrived this afternoon.
28:03Well, it's the girl George when I see her.
28:05I'd better get him out of the way before he's spotted.
28:07I think she's staying the night.
28:08They've booked a Swede.
28:09Yeah?
28:10I'll just stay put no she's here.
28:12Listen, could you keep an eye on him?
28:14And if he leaves the hotel, or the girl does, ring me at Longfield's.
28:18Is that all right?
28:19Yeah, all right.
28:20Good girl.
28:24Hello.
28:26Yes, it's Gray.
28:28Listen, the police are here.
28:30Oh, don't worry, I will.
28:35Stop worrying.
28:36OK.
28:40Listen, I'm leaving now.
28:43Is all the gear there?
28:45And I can trust the guy.
28:48OK, yes.
28:50About half an hour.
28:52I've got to go now.
28:54Just stay here and don't move out of the room.
28:58I'll be back before you know it.
28:59Tony, what is going on?
29:02I'll tell you all about it on the plane tomorrow.
29:05Oh, and don't answer the phone.
29:08Love you.
29:16Well, certainly I can talk to him, but I saw him myself.
29:19So did Sergeant Carter.
29:20Whoever it was you thought you saw, it definitely was not Gray.
29:24Look here, Inspector, I think this has gone on long enough.
29:26Yeah, so do I, Mr Longfield.
29:28I think it's time we had a serious talk.
29:30Now, if someone's Harrison you, there's got to be a reason.
29:33Let's start with security.
29:35Let's go.
29:55Okay.
30:26It's just a thought, Mr. Longfield, and I don't want you to take this the wrong way.
30:50But has anyone got a grudge against you apart from Gray?
30:54No.
30:56So, I don't know.
31:25What about business rivals?
31:55No, Mr. Longfield, I don't think you're lying, but it doesn't make sense, does it?
32:09If I'm watching Grey and he's behaving himself, then the only way I can solve the mystery is to have you watch too.
32:14If you did, you'd find I'm telling the truth.
32:16All right, I'll arrange it.
32:25Green and red banding going to white.
32:55All right, that's it.
33:02Give me a minute to get clear.
33:05Don't forget the rope.
33:16Inspector, you'll appreciate all this is a bit of a strain.
33:21I'll have security show you out.
33:25Hey, what are you doing out there?
33:39Come on, who are you?
33:41Who are you?
33:42Who are you?
33:43Who are you?
33:44Who are you?
33:44When was this?
34:04Well, sound the alarm, man.
34:08Hello?
34:09Green?
34:09Green?
34:10Is that you, Green?
34:12Hello?
34:13Governor?
34:19Oh, God, no.
34:21Give me your rope.
34:22George, get an ambulance, get on with the local boys, and when you've sorted it out, meet
34:26me at that hotel.
34:27Two, four, five, five, five, five, five, five, six, six, seven, seven,stem, seven,sem, Tennessee.
34:41Go, go, go.
34:45It's your home.
34:49Okay, go.
34:49Police, where's Gray?
34:55He's in bed.
34:57Is he now?
35:00This way.
35:08Hey, wait a minute. Who are you?
35:11Flying squad. You look hot, Mr. Gray.
35:12You having a bad dream?
35:16We don't all go to bed just to sleep.
35:18You're Mr...
35:19Detective Inspector Regan.
35:21What do you want?
35:23How long's he been here?
35:28How long?
35:31All evening.
35:32That's straight, all evening.
35:34So would you leave us alone? Otherwise I'll make a complaint.
35:40Sorry, you've been troubled.
35:48Tony, for God's sake, tell me what the hell is going on!
35:59Sit down.
36:05So what about your computer course, then?
36:07I'd say it was completely legit.
36:09Gray knows his stuff and teaches very well.
36:13It's got to be a cover, then.
36:15There's something going on at Longfields and it's starting to turn ugly.
36:20Listen, if Burnham and Gray were trying to pull some computer stroke,
36:24what could they be after?
36:25Blackmail.
36:27What you know, bad debts, bank accounts, personal records.
36:30This is all science fiction to me.
36:31You mean villains and computers don't mix?
36:35Something like that, yeah.
36:36Well, they do, you know.
36:37One computer programmer in the States
36:39systematically rounded off all the share values
36:42of a stock-broking firm to the nearest full percentage point.
36:45All the little bits were transferred by the computer
36:48to his own personal bank account.
36:50Took a long time.
36:51How much did he make?
36:52Half percent of 400 million.
36:54Two million dollars.
36:56Did they nick him?
36:57They couldn't prove it.
36:58When the company began to suspect what he was doing,
37:02they asked the computer to deliver a statement of his personal account.
37:06And?
37:06Well, as soon as they typed in his account number,
37:08the computer went berserk.
37:10Every memory bank, disk and tape was completely wiped clean.
37:14It's what he told the computer to do, you see.
37:20Governor?
37:21Hi, George.
37:22Local boys are searching the area.
37:23The security man is concussed,
37:24but they don't think he's going to be too bad.
37:26They'll let us know when he comes round.
37:27Well, I told them, yeah.
37:28Whoever it is, though, didn't get very far.
37:30What do you mean?
37:31Well, I know it's hard to tell in the dark,
37:33but there's no sign of a break-in.
37:35They're still looking.
37:37They'll ring if they find anything.
37:38Yeah, that's if they were trying to break in.
37:40What else would they be doing?
37:41I don't know.
37:42We'll go back there first thing in the morning.
37:45How'd you get on, love?
37:46Well, it's been a long day, George.
37:48Time you were in bed.
37:49You were going to be up at seven.
37:52Aren't you?
37:53Yeah, why?
37:55Oh, no, I mean,
37:55it's just that, well,
37:57we've got men on duty outside of Burnham's room,
37:59we've got men on duty outside of Grey's room.
38:02There's no need for you to stay up, either, is there?
38:04You know, that's all I meant.
38:06Yeah, yeah, well, thanks a lot, George.
38:08Thanks very much.
38:10Good night.
38:18Yeah.
38:18You don't fancy...
38:20And keep it part of Caroline Stewart's way.
38:25Oh, well, yes, yeah.
38:26Night, Jenny.
38:27Night.
38:28Night, sir.
38:37Room service.
38:39Now then, Jenny, what are you going to have to drink, love?
38:42Um, well, thanks, Jack,
38:43but I think I'm going to bed all the same.
38:45But, um, don't let me stop you.
38:48Night.
38:57Morning, all.
38:58I hope everybody's recovered.
39:04Right.
39:05This morning, I'm going to start
39:06with a few introductory remarks
39:08about the terminal keyboard and the VDU.
39:11The VDU being the visual display unit.
39:15Well?
39:19Well, I haven't found any sign of a break-in yet, Mr. Longfield.
39:21You won't.
39:22Why not?
39:22Because there was no burglary.
39:23It's all part of Grey's campaign.
39:25Campaign?
39:26To provoke and annoy me.
39:27Well, if that's what he's about,
39:28he's chosen a funny way of doing it.
39:30Running around your property in the middle of the night,
39:32knocking over your security staff.
39:34Yeah, he still hasn't come round.
39:35Get him to check the whole place again, George.
39:37Ground floor, first floor, front sides and back.
39:47Kev!
39:50Well, that's it for today.
39:52The course will begin again in about two weeks' time.
39:55You'll all be personally notified by post.
39:58Make sure no one comes in here.
40:14Governor, there's marks on here.
40:38They look new.
40:39There's footmarks on this wall, too.
40:41Well, get another ladder and get right up to the top.
40:45The frequency's drifting a bit.
40:46I like that.
40:51What are you doing?
40:52Using my own personal code
40:54in order to ask for Maynard's reference number.
40:56Are you sure your code still works?
40:58Mr. Burnham, I know what I'm doing.
40:59If anybody tried to delete my own private number,
41:01then the whole program would go up the chute.
41:04My code, T-S-S-3-E-1.
41:19There's the checking response.
41:28Now, Hamilton.
41:30Hamilton.
41:30Hamilton.
41:34You should have added welcome back.
41:37What now?
41:37Please bring you a little trap, Mr. Burnham.
41:39Where do you want the gold truck to go?
41:40Governor, those marks go all the way up to the roof.
41:44Someone's been playing around with some wires up there.
41:49Wires on the roof?
42:12Yeah, there's a radio up there as well.
42:14I've just wiped the whole computer out.
42:19Its memory is completely blank.
42:22Game set and match to us.
42:24The gold truck will be there in a few minutes.
42:27And Longfield's career is over.
42:29Very thorough.
42:30£50,000, please.
42:32There's £25,000 in there.
42:35You'll get the rest when it's all over.
42:39Bastard.
42:39No, no, just thorough, like you, Mr. Gray.
42:55The system's useless.
42:58Total abort.
42:59He's done you up properly, hasn't he?
43:00I think it's time you gave us details of any major security operation you were handling today, Mr. Longfield.
43:06No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
43:36Get on with it.
43:48Car right outside the door.
43:49Yes, sir.
43:54Excuse me.
43:56Miss Smart?
43:57Yes.
43:58Where's the ID?
43:59I'm told you can help us identify a man called Gray.
44:02Mr. Gray.
44:03Come on now, Mr. Gray.
44:04That's Gray.
44:05Hang about.
44:16You all right?
44:17Mr. Gray.
44:18He's smashed out of his mind.
44:19Caused a big scene upstairs.
44:22Another girl.
44:23Eh?
44:23Where's his girlfriend?
44:27As Burnham would say,
44:28Game, game, set, and match.
44:39Oh, no.
44:41They checked out.
44:42Stop.
44:42It's too late.
44:44The van's already gone.
44:45Get in.
44:46Security depo.
44:47Acton.
44:47Right, get going.
44:50Oscar 24 to MP.
44:52MP, Oscar 24.
44:53I want a security van stopped.
44:55I don't care how you do it,
44:56it's got to be stopped.
44:57Repeat.
44:58Stopped.
44:59Here's the number.
45:06Easy.
45:06It's getting very late, Mr. B.
45:19The fellas are starting to worry.
45:21We've been ready a long, long time.
45:22Easy gun!
45:23It's here.
45:24This is it.
45:25No more contact, right?
45:26Let's go.
45:27Let's go.
45:57Let's go.
46:01Move.
46:10Now.
46:13Move.
46:16Move.
46:17Move.
46:22Move.
46:25Move.
46:26Move.

46:57No!

47:24You're late.
47:25You don't want me what stopped.
47:27Get over there, you.
47:28What's the matter with them?
47:30You've got an ingrained toenail.
47:32Yeah, it's about all his worth.
47:34It's Burnham and Gray I want.

48:08Can I go now?
48:10I am going to release you on your own bail of 20 pounds
48:13to appear at Luxbridge Magistrates Court tomorrow.
48:21You got them all?
48:23Yeah.
48:24No one's ever heard of Burnham, of course.
48:26Well, stop worrying.
48:27We've got him.
48:28You've what?
48:29We found a copy of The Root in his briefcase.
48:31That's what I said.
48:32They always make a boo-boo sooner or later.
48:36What about Gray?
48:37The uniformed boys nicked him after some sort of scene at the hotel.
48:40I'm going to enjoy talking to Mr. Gray.
48:42What the hell did you let him go for?
48:53I didn't let him go.
48:54We've nicked him.
48:55Why didn't you keep him here?
48:56On what charge?
48:57My office...
48:58Your office phoned our relief and said we'd nick great.
49:01Nobody asked what the charge was.
49:03What was the charge?
49:04Salting behaviour.
49:05We've got his address.
49:06He won't be there.
49:08What was he wearing?
49:10Uh, tweed, overcoat, pinstripe, suit...
49:12Like that?
49:13Yeah, a bit.
49:14Well, yes or no?
49:15It's like him.
49:17Like him?
49:18Who is that?
49:19One of your boys?
49:20No, that's Gray.
49:23The real Gray.
49:27The bloke you charged was a doppelganger.
49:30A what?
49:31A double.
49:32He was using a double. We've blown it.
49:36Thanks.
49:40Do you want the bad news?
49:45Haskins has pulled rank on you.
