00:00Previously on the hack think who edited the paper think about where he sits now. I mean,
00:12I know Andy Colson for him sitting next to the Prime Minister. That's wrong in every way. The
00:17police have Mulcair's notebooks. If we can get them into the public eye, we'll see who hired
00:21who, how high this goes, who was being hacked. Just be safe with yourself. Just be safe. Mr.
00:26Daniel Morgan case. We've had some witnesses finally come from. You cannot be taking phone
00:32calls from a protected witness. From today, you will have no further contact with Gary
00:37Eden whatsoever. Max, we've got them on the rack. You settle, the whole thing gets covered
00:41up again. You've got them on the rack. With what? The Murdochs agreed to pay Clifford more
00:45than a million pounds. Our biggest gun was spiked.
00:48Our liberal conservative government will take Britain in a historic new direction. A direction
00:57of hope and unity, conviction and common purpose. I'm delighted to be standing here with the new
01:04deputy prime minister. And I would like now to invite him to speak to us on what I think is a
01:11remarkable and very welcome day. Thank you, David. We've just been through an election campaign
01:19and now we have a coalition. Until today, we were rivals and now we're colleagues.
01:24This is unusual. And that will cost you all that work given to someone else's byline.
01:30Finding it a little bit hard to get my head around.
01:35BBC are playing it on repeat. I've watched it 15 times. It was sickening the first time.
01:39Andy Coulson now sits at the right-hand side of God. There's a direct link between Number 10 and
01:44Murdoch. I don't like that whisper chain. We need our... Our own coalition. We need allies.
01:50We have allies. I'm assembling a huge team of lawyers. People are working together.
01:54We need allies in the press. Yeah, I think I've tried. Nobody will touch it. Thank you.
02:02Well, they weren't on Fleet Street, but I've always thought a lot of Glen Campbell. I think
02:07Panorama will bite. No, no, no. The BBC won't risk a battle with Murdoch.
02:11Well, then there's Dispatches, maybe, and internationally, Bill Keller.
02:16You can't think the New York Times would want to be involved. Murdoch's hold on the Wall Street
02:20Journal is galling to Bill. I think he could... Well, I've got resources, of course, but...
02:27Alan, they won't share back. TV hacks might be the New York Times. This will always be your story, Nick.
02:33Well, it's bigger than that. Me.
02:41Oh, I can't make friends at school. Why not a pen pal? I get it. Yeah.
02:48Yeah, I get it. It's a good idea. It's a necessary idea.
02:55Good.
02:55Good. So, Nick Davis and The Guardian are losing the exclusive, but winning the war.
03:03Steve. Yeah.
03:25I'm aware that it has taken a few years to get to this point, and many of us are eager to draw
03:33these pre-trial hearings to a close. But I'm afraid a new matter has arisen that requires our attention.
03:41Last night, an application was made by the counsel for the defendants as regards a possible
03:46irregularity in the conduct of this investigation in relation to the prosecution witness, Mr. Gary Eaton.
03:55In order to resolve this, it is my view that we must spend some time hearing evidence directly
04:01from DCS David Cook and the officers in his team, which will begin on Monday.
04:08These rules are ridiculous. They are tight on this one.
04:16No conferring me colleagues. I may not work with these officers day in, day out.
04:20They don't want you to prepare, basically. It's known as an ambush defense.
04:23And they want me to tell them everything about Gary Eaton. But the suspects are sitting right there.
04:28Look, if the judge does decide to lose Gary Eaton's evidence, it would be a significant setback.
04:34Oh, losing Gary Eaton would be a fucking disaster. So we do what the judge tells us to.
04:41All you have to do is answer the questions. Dave will be fine. He's good in the spotlight.
04:47And while you sit in the spotlight, boy scout behavior, day in, day out. Agreed? The defense
04:53could put you under surveillance. They could track your car, your phone. They'd love nothing more than to
04:58catch you out. These men have been under arrest for over a year.
05:04This is a fucking farce. Nothing to do with truth. Nothing to do with justice.
05:10We do the best we can within the system we've got.
05:22What do you call three Pulitzer Prize winners sitting in a row? A murder? An ambush? An armada?
05:29Do you really call them help? This is, uh, quite something. It's remarkable journalism, Nick.
05:36Thank you. Any sense they're doing it in America too?
05:40Uh, a few suspected names. Nothing firm. It's all in there.
05:44You have no one on record from News of the World? No.
05:47But plenty off the record. Am I right? She's trying to get you to reveal who your Mr. Apollo is.
05:54Oh, I see. You think he's a news international insider. Interesting.
05:58Um, but no, not sharing. And frankly, even if I wanted to, he's disappeared.
06:04Do you have an angle, though? Your paper?
06:07You know, Bill's instincts were, uh, royal family, Murdoch's press intrusion.
06:11In that order. We'll find our way. It's important no one can say that we colluded with you or we're
06:16babyfed just to stand your story up. You're not here to stand my story up.
06:20I wasn't saying that. The idea is we further each other's stories.
06:23Anything new we get, we know you're the keeper of the flame. We'll bring you in.
06:30Might say likewise, but I've given you all I have.
06:50You might get a call from the New York Times in the next two days.
07:04New York Times, fancy. They're getting involved. We're giving them what we have.
07:24Two newspapers are better than one.
07:25You know, Nick, when I look at the kids who come round for play dates, I instinctively know who are
07:32good at sharing and who aren't. And you...
07:34Alan thinks it's a good idea. I think it's a good idea.
07:36You weren't very good at sharing at all. Why are you?
07:39I'm not done. They'll do their thing.
07:44It actually makes it easier to pursue. Now, I was actually quite good at football as a kid, so
07:50that's what I would have done at your play date. I'd have found a ball and kicked it.
07:52I didn't care about toys. Anyway, I have an idea. So, Harry Evans wrote in his memoir about a plane
07:58crash. I don't know Harry Evans. Editor of the Sunday Times from 1967 to 81. Newspaper legend.
08:05Doesn't that mean he worked for Murdoch? Oh, they didn't get on. Murdoch fired him.
08:08Eventually. Actually, first he promoted him and gave him editorship of the Times.
08:11But that's not... And he's the hero in this story.
08:13I haven't told the story. Well, your eyes imply he's the hero.
08:15So, DC-10 in Paris, passenger jet. There was clearly a problem with the
08:20manufacturer of the plane, but Harry couldn't print. Without evidence?
08:23Exactly. So, Harry got his reporters to intervene, linked the bereaved families with highly effective
08:28lawyers in the US because US courts were more likely to order McDonnell Douglas to disclose
08:34internal paperwork. My plan is to do the same. Haven't we already tried that with Max Clifford?
08:38No, no. Then you involved me, in your case, very kindly. Now I'm going to recruit for you.
08:45So, they bribed Max. They won't be able to stop an army of people. If I can get a list of the hat,
08:51encourage them to come forward, we can flood the courts.
08:58I can't see you as a footballer. Fuck off. Look, Andy Coulson created a culture at the News of the
09:04World. To prove he did so, we need to get as many of his top journalists implicated as possible.
09:08Mulcair's notes had Clive Goodman's name written at the top's court record,
09:13so we can find the other editors who commissioned him.
09:17Come on. It's time to get nuclear, don't you think?
09:21The inevitable dig followed. I had to identify, with the help of my furry friend, every celebrity
09:28politician and sports star they'd gone after. High-ranking, the low-ranking. The illustrious,
09:33the audacious. And then, I had to persuade those people to fight, like MP Tessa Jowell.
09:40Yes, I have been spoken to by the police. All the dirt they had on your ex-husband came from hacking.
09:45And ruined my marriage, I am aware. I'd like to publish an article about your experiences,
09:50and I'd like you to consider pursuing it further in court. I have good lawyer recommendations.
09:54But that would mean staring it up. We've struggled enough. Please, leave it alone.
09:59I had proof that Charles Clark had been hacked. I told a friend who knew him to tell him. My friend
10:05said, he's not willing to engage. With Charlotte's help, I identified a dozen law firms who specialized
10:11in representing celebrities. I contacted all of them. I wish I could tell you their names.
10:15I'm getting nothing. Nothing? They're busy. They're worried about reviving an embarrassing story.
10:22They can't afford it. But mostly, mostly, they're frightened.
10:29I've heard rumors about Nicole Kidman. Hello, Charlotte.
10:33Nice to meet you. A charming lawyer. How nice.
10:36Nicole's lawyer is John Kelly. Have you met John Kelly?
10:43No. She wasn't warned by the police. And no, she won't be meeting with you. Or any other journalist.
10:50Mr. Kelly, this is worth pursuing. For Nicole, for all your clients.
10:54It's still a no, I'm afraid. A hard no. Our trustees say no.
11:00Mark Thompson came about because two of his clients, one of whom was big brothers,
11:03Jade Goody, had been hacked. Jade had died of cancer.
11:07They're not interested in pursuing a case. Perhaps I could talk to them.
11:10Because you're more persuasive than me? I get it. You're desperate.
11:16There is another... someone. I can't give you her name.
11:20We called her AZP. She's very angry. They've ruined her life.
11:25She's leaning into all this. I'd love to.
11:28Yeah, of course you fucking would. And if she's brave enough to talk more,
11:31then you'll hear more. But until then...
11:33They're just all so scared.
11:35They are profoundly scared.
11:50Mr. Cook, do you accept that a number of rules were broken with regard to Gary Eaton?
11:55I do.
11:57And the issue for the judge to decide on is the spirit in which these rules were broken.
12:02Were they broken in bad faith or was it done transparently and in the interests of justice?
12:08Those are the two sides that we are litigating at the moment. You understand that?
12:12Yes, I do.
12:15Let us begin with your initial meeting with Mr. Eaton.
12:20It's been suggested that you led the witness during this conversation.
12:24I think it's important for me to say that I never wanted to meet with Mr. Eaton in the first place.
12:30He insisted he would only speak with me, so I went along.
12:34And the job is to find out if he was valid. And to do that, you have to ask some probing questions.
12:41Give me the name of the brothers.
12:43Well, that's hardly a probing question, is it, Mr. Cook?
12:49He wasn't interested in any brothers at all, was he? You gave him the brothers.
12:54I gave him the brothers. I did not give him the name of the brothers.
12:57You were aware at that first meeting of how important it was to preserve the integrity of the process?
13:03And that's what I thought we were doing. It was all recorded.
13:06And we all have the transcripts here before us, but that wasn't my question.
13:13It was a simple question.
13:17Let's try another.
13:18Do you accept that by having direct phone conversations with a witness,
13:22you were breaching the sterile corridor system?
13:25Yes, I do, but I would say that this was a particularly difficult set of circumstances.
13:31This wasn't difficult at all. All you had to do was say to this man,
13:34I'm sorry, the rules are I'm not allowed to have direct contact with you.
13:38You have your own witness protection handler, they can sort out any problems you may have,
13:42but from now on, you must not ring me, and if you do, my phone will bar you.
13:47And that is what I did on several occasions.
13:49Did you ever bar Gary Eaton from calling your phone?
13:56It's not always possible on every type of phone.
13:58Are you saying that it's not possible from a metropolitan police phone?
14:08It's a terribly simple question.
14:12He changed his number. I didn't know his number.
14:17I'd like to turn now to the issue of your note-taking.
14:20My lord, between August the 23rd and the 16th of September 2006,
14:27not one of Mr. Cook's numerous telephone calls to Eaton appears on the schedule.
14:33Mr. Cook, do you mind telling us how it is that between the 23rd of August and the 16th of September,
14:39you managed to make so many calls without recording any of them?
14:42From memory, the vast majority, if not all, were to do with Mr. Eaton's welfare, his domestics,
14:50stuff like that, nuisance stuff.
14:51But you accept, do you not, that the court has no way of knowing what was said during these calls?
14:58I accept that. My lord, do you mind if I sit down or suffer from vertigo?
15:01Please.
15:05Let us look at tab number nine. We can see top line that the debrief begins on the 1st of August.
15:14We can see that it's followed the next day by a call which is 15 minutes long.
15:19That one is logged. Then, on the 28th of August, there's a 9-minute call which is not logged.
15:25Then, on the 1st of September, Eaton suddenly changes his story.
15:30He says for the first time that he was at the scene of the murder.
15:34What are you suggesting?
15:35I'm suggesting that that may not be a coincidence, Mr. Cook.
15:40I suppose you're going to deny it and say that it is just a coincidence?
15:44You're going to deny that during these unlogged calls, you were feeding Mr. Eaton his story?
15:50Why would I do that?
15:51This case has been causing the Metropolitan Police untold embarrassment for over two decades.
15:57You were desperate to nail someone.
15:59Of course, if you think you have somebody who may be an eyewitness, you embrace them with both arms.
16:04But you allowed this dishonest, mentally ill man to run riot over your investigation.
16:09Not only that, but you manipulated him because he was easily manipulable
16:13and because he was your one way of bringing this case back to life and ending your career with a real coup.
16:21Isn't that what has gone on here, Mr. Cook?
16:24You could not be father from my truth, sir.
16:36You could not be father from my truth, sir.
16:42If you haven't changed your ways.
16:47No chance.
16:51Thanks.
16:53Can you still win?
16:55Now that we lost Gary Eaton the entire case, rest on two witnesses.
17:00Lindsay Wright, Jimmy Cook's ex-girlfriend who was basically a fucking nightmare.
17:05And James Ward, our original supergrass, was erratic at best.
17:21Nine days they kept me on that stand.
17:23And day one, I really thought I could win, hoped.
17:33Yeah, I remember hope.
17:36I'm sorry they did that to you.
17:39You didn't deserve it.
17:40Yeah, I think maybe I did.
17:44So what about you?
17:46Can you, um, win?
17:48I don't know.
17:50Journalism isn't about winning or losing.
17:53It's about the gradual erosion of self-worth.
17:58Alan's given the story to Panorama and the New York Times,
18:01and he's probably right because I can't get anyone to go to court,
18:04which means we can't...
18:06I thought I had a way to get to Mulcair's notes.
18:11I thought I was finally getting somewhere, but like everything, I try.
18:14It won't be Jonathan Rhys.
18:20Surely he's just as bad as Mulcair.
18:21He's on trial, have you ever noticed?
18:23We raided his house a few years ago.
18:27We found invoices on his desk.
18:28Rhys to Alex Maranchuk in the news of the world.
18:32Now, Rhys went to prison for conspiring to pervert the course of justice,
18:36came out and went right back into the employee news of the world,
18:40while Andy Coulson was the editor.
18:41Under Coulson, news of the world employed a convicted criminal.
18:48Now, this fell into your lap, OK?
18:52You can't quote me, you can't name Rhys,
18:56but you can use this to nail them.
19:00This could get you in serious trouble.
19:03I'm already in serious trouble.
19:11So you're calling Jonathan Rhys Mr. Ray?
19:17I think it's my best pseudonym yet.
19:19I can't name him till after the Morgan trial.
19:22It's very tenuous legally even to hide him under a pseudonym.
19:25His lawyers can claim contempt of court.
19:27Coulson being in government is a contempt.
19:29It's a good story. Does it stand out?
19:31My source is solid.
19:32Jonathan Rhys was in prison for conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
19:37And then is the world rehired him?
19:40R3 was released from prison while Coulson was editor.
19:44Feels a good one.
19:45We'll need to give Coulson a right of reply.
19:47Oh, this is the most archaic practice,
19:49giving people quotes in articles against them.
19:52It's just free advertising space for their lives.
19:55I think it's necessary.
19:56If we publish his right of reply, we'll be misleading our readers.
19:59Whatever the fight, I think it's better to stick to established journalist practice,
20:03don't you?
20:03What would you know about journalism? You're a lawyer.
20:05Nick, could you maybe talk to her with a bit more respect?
20:08Oh, fuck off.
20:08With respect.
20:09Nick.
20:10Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
20:11Rufus, sorry, Jill.
20:12I know how vital you are to all this.
20:14Just busy time, busy head.
20:17I'll alert some people.
20:20Go back stairs.
20:22I know this will spread.
20:24The other newspapers, they can't ignore this.
20:26It has to.
20:28Jill?
20:29If he gets the quote from Coulson, I think we can argue public interest.
20:32I agree.
20:34This is good.
20:39Whoever your source is, this is good.
20:51Would it surprise you to know it didn't spread?
21:05All the other newspapers ignored the Mr. A story.
21:09You'll get them next time.
21:21The trouble with next time.
21:23You'll get them next time.
21:27I don't have a next time.
21:30You stupid child.
21:32Nicholas.
21:33Nicholas, don't be dramatic, Nicholas.
21:36Now, let's get a washcloth for that blood, shall we?
21:40I don't have a next time.
21:41I don't have a next time.
21:43I don't have a next time.
21:45I don't have a next time.

30:37searched and when you searched it but i'm allowed to be curious and i
30:42i'm not against the law to be curious look you're accusing jimmy cook of over 30 separate murders
30:53and each time you change a statement and say you remember a new mother it comes off the back of an
30:57internet search and how to commit that particular type of murder disclosing this means that we can no
31:03longer put you forward as a witness of truth
31:05and i'm afraid lindsey i'm afraid we lost the only other witness who had evidence on jimmy
31:14so your statement

32:51i've been i've been busy frantic work life
32:56it's what you get for having friends who are coppers
32:59and disappear on you for years on end
33:02so we're still pals
33:03but that's not why you're here you want something alan russbridger and the guardian have been in
33:12touch with us at panorama it's the hacking stuff but there's also this story on jonathan
33:17reese that they've been pushing i know you've been on daniel morgan so reese is your bag right
33:22look i'm sorry we can talk about other things and take my bbc hat off genuinely wanted to see you
33:35how are you no
33:40hoping
33:42oh that's strange
33:45i was without kids pretty quiet
33:48i think i need to get better and filling in the time
33:59we should be aiming for a coalition of lawyers coalition i mean government now i have other
34:04friendly lawyers with very high profile clients i do actually know who you're talking to sky
34:08adra case progressing under your watch you're still not accepting their terms no max mosley
34:12has promised to financially back any client who comes forward surely we can encourage them
34:16all to come forward now make a breathe okay you are constantly swaying between
34:23utter despair and this it's exhausting the law takes time we are building something let it
34:30fucking build stop worrying about the new york times getting there before you this is your case
34:34i'm worried about the new york times i don't have sienna miller as a client you don't have sean
34:39haul in your pocket but we are all working together stop doing that thing with your hands
34:45i have another one for you a former politician apparently he's had sight of mulcair's notebook
34:51i've been reluctant to share him because i think he's tricky but you want everyone
34:58what i'm interested in is in mulcair's notebooks i've no interest in what it shows but there'll be a
35:05name at the top corner of the notes which is the name of someone at the news of the world have you
35:10read what the guardian has written about me about this case tommy sheridan a defamation case which
35:16became a perjury case the process of disclosure on which allowed him access to mulcair and to his paperwork
35:22and he's right the guards haven't been kind about it what i'm looking to do is to build a case
35:29against andy coulson and the culture of the news of the world that the hacking was endemic yes there's
35:34a name no you can't see it and you certainly can't print it i don't trust journalists nick
35:42no anymore okay the name is important because it undermines the one rogue reporter argument which
35:48coulson keeps hiding behind the more editors and senior journalists we can implicate the more we
35:53show them lying greg miscue greg miscue you sure i didn't tell you you're not printing it greg
36:10miscue was news editor later assistant editor he's retired now but he reported directly to
36:15cool i know who greg miscue is now do you know how significant this is this could blow the lid off
36:19this has to be off the record
36:29do i understand that you're representing yourself in cores yes what if i was to help you go on there's
36:37very little i know a lot about but this issue is one of them i can feed you questions help with your
36:41research all for nothing for the name of the notebook that name is dynamite greg miscue is
36:46dynamite and you can print it because it's been stated in court and have an idea who you should call
36:51as a witness go on andy coulson
36:59you're a traitor start by asking him about greg miscue he'll deny any knowledge
37:06mr coulson these are the written notes of the former news of the world employee glenn mulcair
37:13contractor not employee mr coulson do you recognize the name of the top left hand corner of the page
37:21it says greg this is the big one do you think that name refers to the former assistant editor greg miscue
37:29uh not to my knowledge no do you have any knowledge of greg miscue ordering glenn mulcair to hack
37:36tommy sheridan's phone are you telling me that you never ordered or unaware of greg miscue ordering mr
37:42mulcair to tap my phone no i had absolutely no knowledge of it and i i certainly didn't instruct
37:49anyone to do anything of the type interesting because sean hall in the new york times stated that he
37:56played you hacked voicemails i remain confident there is no evidence to support mr hall's
38:02accusations that's my position do you have any comment on why mr hall would have made those
38:06accusations you should ask mr hall how bad was the culture in your newspaper i don't accept there was
38:12any culture of phone hacking at the news of the world there was one unfortunate case involving clive
38:18goodman and and no one was more sorry about it than me and that's why i resigned tommy sheridan
38:28we got miscue's name out there it wasn't enough but we're rattling coulson's cage
38:34well let's see if this sends him over the edge this was lodged in the high court this morning
38:39worth mentioning in real life he made me go to the courthouse to pick this up myself
38:42possibly not by mentioning mulcair blagged her phone number i changed my phone twice and somehow
38:50they always got it it wasn't just her phone they were inside of they targeted sienna's mother her
38:55boyfriend his assistant her publicist we analyzed my itemized phone bills and then we used them
39:02to force the police to hand over calls made by mulcair the police were sitting on this information
39:06for four years i'll remind you john yates four years and then we linked them to the news of the
39:14world stories there was a name that appeared in the top corner of glenn's notes a name we haven't had
39:20before a name that could change everything tell me the name ian edmondson ian edmondson he reported
39:30directly to coulson ian edmondson is the current news editor of the news of the world
39:47farback miscue and edmondson chief reporter forward news editor currently that is a culture
39:53culture a culture culture conversation has curated we can't survive this
40:05just heard good work nick
40:23Sheridan?
40:33Oh, Nick.
40:34They couldn't get through to you, so...
40:36Well, I don't know how...
40:37Is it the kit?
40:38No, no, no.
40:39Um...
40:40It's about your father.
40:43God, I'm so sorry, Nick.
40:53Yeah, Graeme.
41:09We found two crates in an old DPS office.
41:12A cleaner found them.
41:14It's old evidence on James Ward.
41:19But we told the judge we declared everything.
41:23On what?
41:24I'm sorry.
41:29How about that?
41:32Now this is the end, right?
41:35Do you want the official answer or the honest answer?
41:39We don't survive this.
41:43I don't understand.
41:46How can they accuse us of withholding evidence
41:48when you didn't even know that the crates existed?
41:51It was a disused police building.
41:53Nothing to do with your team, right?
41:55Yeah.
41:57Nelfis was locked for years.
41:58Nobody knew anything about it.
42:02But even if we could make the case
42:04that we weren't withholding the files,
42:05the contents, the contents, the details about James Ward
42:11that he didn't originally disclose to us.
42:13If we'd have had the files earlier, we may have been able to deal with it, but all of it together.
42:22It's years and years and years gone.
42:27It's like everyone forgot all because someone left some files in the wrong room.
42:35It's like everyone forgot all the people in that court.
42:39This was supposed to be about Daniel.
42:43It's like everyone!
42:43It was a long time ago.
42:46I don't know.
42:49Oh!
42:52I don't know.
42:53I don't know.
42:53Hi.
43:13I really loved him.
43:16I know.
43:17It was complicated, but I really loved him.
43:24The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
43:28He makes me lie down in green pastures.
43:31He leads me beside still waters.
43:34He restores my soul.
43:36He leads me in right paths for his name's sake.
43:40Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil.
43:45For you are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
43:50You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
43:55Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
44:00And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord my whole life long.
44:05Hello.
44:06Hello.
44:07Hello.
44:08Hello.
44:09Hello.
44:10Hello.
44:11Hello.
44:12Hello.
44:13Hello.
44:14Hello.
44:15Hi.
44:21On the 14th of January, 2011, Rebecca Brooks asked her secretary to find somewhere discreet for her to meet Andy Coulson.
44:30She did so the next day at 7.45am at the Hawken Hotel in Belgravia.
44:35We don't know what Brooks said to Coulson during that meeting, but we do know that on the 21st of January, Andy Coulson resigned.
44:43He said, unfortunately, continued coverage of events connected to my old job.
44:48At the News of the World has made it difficult for me to give the 110% needed in this role.
44:53I stand by what I said about those events.
44:56But when a spokesman needs a spokesman, it's time to move on.
45:17This is the end of a long, as I am sure everyone associated with this case will agree, exhausting road.
45:25In all the years that I have been a judge, I have never come across a case in which there have been so many issues or such complex issues to be resolved before a trial could even get underway.
45:38The family will inevitably be disappointed by the outcome, but they, I think, should be commended on the dignity with which they have faced these proceedings.
45:51Mr. Rees, Mr. Fillory, Mr. Glenn Vian, Mr. Gary Vian, please stand.
46:05You are free to go.
46:07Verdicts of not guilty have been entered in all of your cases.
46:14Thank you all.
46:16Court rise.
46:17Your dad.
46:18Yep.
46:19He was a nice man.
46:20You didn't know him.
46:21You made him sound nice.
46:23And, to Andy Coulson, you made him sound nice.
46:41And, to Andy Coulson, may he disappear and never come back.
46:54I may as well tell you we're reporting it tomorrow.
46:58Murdoch's going for full control of B-Sky B.
47:02I did hear it was possible.
47:05If he gets that, he'll be able to leverage a serious amount of debt.
47:10Buy more, buy bigger.
47:12We're talking world domination.
47:16Why are you telling me this?
47:18To remind you it's not over.
47:22Remind me that they cut Coulson loose to save on their B-Sky B business.
47:28It's all a false victory.
47:30Not false at all.
47:33Dissection is a slow process.
47:35We tackle them.
47:38One limb at a time.
47:40And, eventually, they run out of limbs.
47:43Do they?
47:47I'm tired.
47:49I want to go home.
47:50Agreed.
47:52We rest.
47:53We lick our wounds.
47:54We take stock.
47:55No, I don't.
48:00I think on this story, I think you need to find someone to take over.
48:06Sometimes you need to know when to stop.
48:12It's time to stop.
48:13I need to stop.
48:18Sorry.
48:30And I thought a bit of fresh air might be in order.
48:40Oh, I'm fine.
48:41Well, you're not.
48:43I'm all right.
48:45Oh, you're not, mate.
48:59Someone I want you to meet.
49:04He helped me.
49:05I think he can help you.
49:08Get a shower, get dressed.
49:09Not leaving till you do it.
49:11I'm serious.
49:19OK.
49:41Mr. Cook, and a bear.
49:48Well, they're here.
49:54Go.
49:55David Cook, Gordon Brown.
49:57Gordon Brown, David Cook.
49:59I know a lot about you, DCS Cook.
50:01I appreciate you coming all this way.
50:03It's no problem.
50:05I'm interested to hear more about what's happened to you.
50:07I, uh...
50:09I think I might be able to help.
