00:00Martin's not actually that boring once you get a drink inside him.
00:07Glad you had a nice town.
00:09Does he hate me or is this something else?
00:12Martin said some strange man was in our garden today.
00:15You've been talking to that journalist guy.
00:18It's him. The general's car, Simasadi.
00:21John got a tracker on them, so we're compromised.
00:23But don't worry.
00:25He can still be stopped.
00:30What you say, Rudy?
00:36Junction 19.
00:37We're sorry, mate.
00:38He came off at Junction 19.
00:40But I can't track him on AMPL once he's off the motorway.
00:43Are you sure it's him?
00:44100%.
00:45Plate number ending Echo Echo Golf.
00:48What happened to that other vehicle you were tracking?
00:50Ah, tracker's battery's died.
01:00There you go. That's him.
01:02Three cars ahead.
01:04In front of the Mini.
01:06Don't get too close.
01:07Yes.
01:18Get closer.
01:19Okay.
01:22Shit.
01:23Quick.
01:24Left.
01:25Left.
01:26Left.
01:27Left.
01:28Fuck.
01:29Well done.
01:53I'll pull into the car park.
02:03Get the team to meet us here.
02:08Here they are.
02:09We've got Asadi's room number, 404.
02:14And we have confirmation he made a reservation at 2.30pm.
02:17That's our window.
02:18Okay, let's be clear.
02:19Marine will get eyes on Asadi.
02:20John, while Marine has control of Asadi, you'll gain access into his room.
02:22Install the monitoring devices.
02:23Marine will let us know if Asadi's on the move.
02:24Are we good?
02:25Mm-hmm.
02:26We're good.
02:27We're good.
02:28Okay.
02:29All right.
02:30Good.
02:31All right.
02:32All right.
02:33We're good.
02:34All right.
02:35All right.
02:36All right.
02:37All right.
02:38All right.
02:39All right.
02:40All right.
02:41All right.
02:42All right.
02:43All right.
02:44All right.
02:45All right.
02:46All right.
02:47All right.
02:48All right.
02:50All right.
02:51All right.
02:53All right.
02:54And we're here.
02:55No, no!
02:56No, no.
03:00All right.
03:09All right.
03:11Those are you?
03:13Mm-hmm.
03:14All right.
03:15State 100, level 7.
03:35Eyes on Asadi.
03:38John?
03:39Marine has eyes on.
03:40They're clear.
03:45Mechanments, in the morning.
03:47Of course, Mark.
03:55Mechanments you belong.
03:56Of course, Mark.
04:15Hey!
04:45What's happening?
05:07Rudy?
05:08It must be some sort of interference.
05:13The Marines' audio is down, Chief.
05:26We're getting no signal.
05:28You're going to have to move.
05:34I'm going to have to move.
05:37I'm going to have to move.
05:40I'm going to have to move.
05:45And Kier.
05:54Someone I had to bring with me.
05:55Now he's watching me.
05:57How's his English?
05:58Somewhere between reasonably shit and just shit.
06:02Good.
06:04It's been a long time.
06:06You look the same.
06:08You're McCallum, madam.
06:16Who is John Hughes?
06:18He works for the security service, but don't let him worry you.
06:22Stick to the plan, and I'll handle him.
06:25John Hughes lacks credibility.
06:28He's got a French accent.
06:34What do you want to hear?
06:36This is an Iranian accent.
06:40You can see the government, he's a man.
06:44One evening, the police will be the police.
06:48Two police will take a murder of his daughter's daughter.
06:54It's so sad that the man is going to kill his children.
07:03Hussein, I'm going to go to the world and I'm going to go to Iran.
07:09I'm sure. We'll go.
07:11We continue with the ploy.
07:41Mary and John.
07:53It's back on.
07:56Thank God.
07:58Asadi's on the move.
08:00John, did you get that?
08:02Asadi's on the move.
08:03Finish up.
08:11John, get out of there now.
08:16John, get out of there.
08:46John, get out of there.
09:16Asadi's headed to the embassy tonight.
09:17Yes, boss.
09:17And a team of mobile surveillance officers are in place.
09:20They are.
09:20And you won't be able to squeak without us knowing about it.
09:23When did you notice your kit wasn't working?
09:26I didn't.
09:27I assumed it was up and running.
09:29We lost you for about four minutes of the operation.
09:32My kit was down for four minutes.
09:34Jesus Christ, really?
09:36God.
09:36I didn't have to work this crap here at six.
09:47What was he doing?
09:48Who?
09:50Who?
09:50The general?
09:52He was reading a book.
09:53I didn't see what it was.
09:54Okay, let's wait to debrief properly at the office.
09:56Well, mate.
10:14You all right, Chief?
10:17What time is he back?
10:18Not until later, I imagine.
10:20Here's some highlights from before we left.
10:32My informant's phone is still off.
10:34Jordan? Should I get it flagged?
10:36Yeah.
10:38Can you have a look at the Marines, kid?
10:42What do you think?
10:44I'm sure it's nothing but...
10:46Better to check and be short, eh?
10:50Thanks, Rudison.
11:24Thank you very much.
11:28Just give me two cents.
11:58Look, John, we can be grown up about this, can't we?
12:14Just go downstairs.
12:17He'll be gone in five minutes and then we can talk.
12:28I had no idea you'd be home.
12:54That makes it okay, does it?
13:01Funny enough, I know how you feel.
13:08Do you?
13:10It really hurt, doesn't it?
13:17What are the kids?
13:23Don't mind mum and dad's.
13:30I didn't mean it to happen.
13:32You didn't mean it to happen.
13:36You just shipped the kids off to your mum and dad's
13:39and Martin came down the chimney on a magic carpet.
13:41Is that it?
13:42Oh.
13:43Well then what?
13:44He called me about a work thing.
13:47I was upset.
13:49Oh.
13:50Just a shoulder to cry on.
13:52Do you think that I was born yesterday?
13:54He was a shoulder to cry on, actually.
13:56And then you fucked him.
13:58I've had enough.
14:09You've had enough?
14:10Yeah.
14:11I think I'm done.
14:12Oh, you think you're done?
14:14I don't even know if I like you anymore.
14:17This is fucked.
14:22Yeah, it is.
14:23This is so completely fucked.
14:26Is that really all you've got?
14:29What do you want me to say?
14:31Anything.
14:34Anything.
14:35Oh, what?
14:36You want tearful forgiveness, is that it?
14:38Acceptance.
14:39I was devastated when you were unfaithful to me.
14:42Well, you've got your own back now, haven't you?
14:44But I gave you a chance.
14:45No, but you never forgave me.
14:47Oh, and is there any wonder?
14:48What do you mean?
14:49Well, did you meet that woman?
14:50What woman?
14:51The one who'd texted you, Penelope.
14:52Was she the one that you had the affair with?
14:54Don't start turning around onto me.
14:55You're the one that's just been caught red-handed.
14:57You made me feel so sick and so worthy.
15:00Well, I hope you're feeling proud of yourself now,
15:03running off to Martin.
15:04I didn't go running off to him.
15:06He was worried about me.
15:08Oh, so Martin comes round in an Uber
15:10with a bottle of wine and a box of tissues,
15:12and in two minutes' time you're on your fucking back
15:15with your fucking knickers round your ankles.
15:17Ah!
15:18Fuck you!
15:20Get away from me!
15:22Get away from me!
15:23Why?
15:24Because I'm not Martin.
15:25At least Martin actually gives a shit about me.
15:27Oh, that's where you're going, is it?
15:29You know he behaves like someone who actually wants to be with me.
15:31Well, why don't you fuck off to Martin's house then?
15:33You are so fired.
15:34I'm sure not.
15:35You've had him.
15:36He'll give you one of his houses on the Costa Brava
15:38if you really want to get away from me.
15:40I can't stand one more minute of this.
15:42You know the revenue you've been looking into
15:44is dodgy dealings in Spain.
15:46Oh, pathetic, really.
15:47And a patient made a sexual harassment complaint against him.
15:50Did you know that?
15:51Do you know any shred of respect I had for you?
15:54It's gone.
15:55This is what being a spy has come to, has it?
15:57Digging up dirt on Martin.
15:58Yeah, well, I could see which way the wind was blowing.
16:00You know he was completely exonerated at that harassment complaint.
16:06Monday.
16:07And as for those properties in Spain,
16:08at least he's got a sensible retirement plan.
16:11You can't even get yourself to a doctor
16:13to have a look at your fucking arse!
16:30Hmm?
16:56Pshh.
16:57Pshh.
17:07Pshh.
17:26So you're half Iranian?
17:28Yeah.
17:29I'm mixed.
17:30Dick.
17:32And what about your extended Iranian family?
17:35Do you see them?
17:37No.
17:38My dad completely assimilated.
17:41Distance himself from them, from Iran.
17:44He sees himself as totally British.
17:46He even ticked my mum's last name.
17:47Really?
17:48You know the Asghari?
17:49I put that back in myself.
17:51Just thinking.
17:56When you were in Iran and Central Asia for six,
18:01did you ever come across Major General Asani?
18:04No.
18:06I'd have said if I had, right?
18:11Yeah, of course.
18:12Just the tequila.
18:16Okay.
18:18Be honest.
18:20Don't you think the investigation's running out of steam?
18:24We're looking for things that aren't there.
18:28Are we?
18:33Oh, yeah.
18:35Oh, I feel like dancing.
18:40Running on anything.
18:41Anything's good enough.
18:43Who would've thought to help someone like you?
18:47Yeah.
18:48Just as they brought me round.
18:49Not as they brought you down.
18:51Roundabout and roundabout.
18:53Who wants to love?
18:54Anyone?
18:55And not the heart.
18:58Has made the grave.
19:00Forget it.
19:01Forget it.
19:02Forget it.
19:03Forget it.
19:04I don't understand.
19:05As the lost of this playboy.
19:07Somehow the voice of connection is made.
19:10We are not black.
19:11This song just stands out.
19:12Ah how are you, too?
19:13How are you?
19:14And as
19:30how are you or at home?
19:31I don't know.
20:01Oh, wait, wait, wait.
20:31I don't think we should.
20:47It's okay.
20:49It's okay.
21:19It's okay.
21:49It's okay.
22:19It's okay.
22:49It's okay.
23:19It's okay.
23:20It's okay.
23:51It's okay.
23:52I think if you were available, we'd be a thing.
23:58Yeah.
23:59A thing thing.
24:05What do you want?
24:06I wanted to ask you about Marine Askari Evans.
24:07Did you work with her at six?
24:08What do you want?
24:09What do you want?
24:10What do you want?
24:11What do you want?
24:12I wanted to ask you about Marine Askari Evans.
24:13Did you work with her at six?
24:14I thought this was related to the GB operation?
24:15I thought this was related to the GB operation.
24:16It is.
24:17It is.
24:18I know two things.
24:20I know two things.
24:22That she worked on Iran's nuclear program.
24:23At six and she was kidnapped.
24:24And she was kidnapped while operating on the term.
24:25And she was kidnapped.
24:26on the Turkmenistan-Aran border.
24:27That's all.
24:28That's all.
24:29That's all.
24:30What do you want?
24:31What do you want?
24:32What do you want?
24:33I wanted to ask you about Marine Askari Evans.
24:34Did you work with her at six?
24:35I thought this was related to the GB operation.
24:38It is.
24:41I know two things.
24:46That she worked on Iran's nuclear program at six.
24:52And she was kidnapped while operating on the Turkmenistan-Aran border.
24:55It was all kept very quiet.
24:58But she was MIA for two months.
25:00And then for some reason known to no one, she was repatriated.
25:03Were there any security concerns when she came back?
25:10Right.
25:11That's all I can say.
25:14I don't want to see you again.
25:21Seeing you stirred up a lot of things for me.
25:25I felt you were all I had.
25:34And you knew it.
25:37And when Claire found out, you dropped me like a hot potato.
25:44Have you ever been honest with your wife?
25:46I mean, really honest.
25:47Who has the luxury of complete honesty working in our game? Who?
25:56It always suited you having the Official Secrets Act to hide behind.
26:03The routine dishonesty of intelligence work, it doesn't suit you, John.
26:06Well, you think I'm routinely dishonest.
26:10You are.
26:12I was.
26:14It corrodes you from the inside out.
26:15From the inside out.
26:32Rudison.
26:33There's new information in from the devices we placed in Asadi's room.
26:36He's talking about a deal to be done.
26:37He says that he's tired.
26:38That it was a long way to come to buy a stallion.
26:39He says that he's tired.
26:40That it was a long way to come to buy a stallion.
26:42He's not.
26:43It's not.
26:44I'm not.
26:46It's a long way to come to buy a stallion.
26:50It's a lot of money.
26:51I'm not.
26:52You're not.
26:53You're not.
26:54You're not.
26:55You're not.
26:57I'm not.
26:58I'm not.
27:00You're not.
27:01You're not.
27:02And what's that?
27:03He says that he's tired.
27:04I don't remember.
27:06That it was a long way to come to buy a stallion.
27:08it's a lot of money
27:10$2 million sterling
27:14the reception at the embassy was tiring
27:17he says
27:19I can't quite make it out
27:23something about the talks on denuclearization
27:26says he's flying home tomorrow
27:30come on
27:31we don't honestly believe he's flown into the UK to buy a racehorse
27:35do you think that's why I was shot at?
27:36I ran the audio through translation software earlier and checked
27:38he's booked a flight out of Heathrow to Toronto tomorrow in the morning
27:42by Ankara
27:43well I don't know how many times I can keep saying
27:45I told you so
27:46and remain dignified
27:47there is no evidence of a plot to kill anyone
27:50let alone using Sauron
27:52I think Sauron is using diplomatic cover
27:55for a face-to-face with Craig Beeston
27:57regarding their heroin trafficking business
27:59I think we're done here
28:00we'll pass it on to the police
28:02Simone
28:06do you think somebody could have tipped off a Sauron?
28:10I'd be careful pointing the finger if I believe
28:12Greg's got it in for you as it is
28:14what do you know about Marine's move from Six?
28:17Marine?
28:18it's all done by Five and Six leadership team
28:20Six asked us if it could take her during a difficult time in her personal life
28:23she comes highly recommended
28:24with glowing references
28:25look I know it's disappointing
28:27that we didn't get more from bugging a Sauron
28:29especially with what happened at the airfield
28:31but it simply is not on
28:34to start undermining your colleagues with zero evidence
28:37to substantiate those claims
28:38I don't trust her
28:40John
28:40I'm in a different place to you
28:44you've always been able to play the maverick card
28:46my first day in this office
28:48as a fully grown-up intelligence officer
28:50I was mistaken for the cleaner
28:51the fucking cleaner
28:53I've had to work twice as hard
28:55be twice as brilliant as everybody else
28:57and I have always had to play by the rules
28:59yeah but that's what made us such a great team back in the day
29:02sorry
29:03I am pulling the plug on this
29:05apart from anything else
29:10we don't have the resources
29:11I know what you've been saying about me
29:21well if it makes you feel any better
29:25the concerns I have no longer apply
29:27and in my book that makes you an utter wanker
29:29and you my son are a fucking cock
29:32you think you intimidate me
29:34that I don't take the physical aspects of basic training seriously
29:37or that I haven't got years of judo in my bones
29:40I don't want to fight with you Greg
29:42I don't want to hug you either
29:43but I certainly don't want to fight with you
29:45you're going to face an internal inquiry into your actions
29:48making sure it happens
29:50and I will be giving evidence
29:52even if no one else will
29:53oh why can't I give a fuck
29:54you used your personal phone to contact Essane
29:56everyone knows
29:58you will lose your job, your pension rights
30:00you will be on your own
30:00and if the organisation thinks a crime was committed
30:03when you shot and killed Essane's attacker
30:04then the file will be handed on to the police
30:07so he's clever now
30:09the Prime Minister opted to be getting through the United States and Iran
30:18to try and revive negotiations on denuclearisation
30:21sources at number 10 described early communications as cautiously optimistic
30:26with both sides agreeing to further dialogue
30:28the UK government says its role is to try and build a working relationship between the two sides
30:34John
30:36Martin
30:38if you'd have a moment perhaps we could go to my office and reach out
30:40no I don't want to be late for my appointment
30:41man to man
30:42I wanted to say I'm sorry
30:46I am sorry
30:48fuck off Martin
30:49are you sorry
30:50for how you've hurt Claire?
30:54no?
30:56you don't know
30:57anything
30:58about my marriage
30:59I know you took it for granted
31:00John
31:00but
31:02you only think about yourself
31:03don't you?
31:04listen
31:07now's not the time we'll place
31:09but I want you to know
31:10I think you're a prize
31:12see you next Tuesday
31:13what's the scene next Tuesday?
31:15you'll work it out
31:16please take a seat Mr. Hughes
31:28go to the nurse
31:55we'll do your blood test today
31:57I'll message her
31:59Dr. Stratakis will be testing for anemia
32:03she could
32:04indicate something more worrying
32:07but there are lots of possibilities
32:10could just be an infection
32:12or an ulcer
32:14diverticulosis
32:15I know you can't forgive me
32:19because you don't know what went on
32:21it was
32:27Penelope
32:27it started in Iraq
32:31and then continued
32:32when we came back to London
32:33it ended years ago
32:39and I only saw her recently
32:41because I had to
32:42relate it to a work thing
32:43did you love her?
33:00I think I felt like I did
33:08at the time
33:08have there been other affairs?
33:18have there been other affairs?
33:18fuck you
33:36fuck you
33:39what do you want me to do about this mum?
33:57he's having everyone fucking nuts
34:00asking where he is
34:01I know
34:03yeah manager situation
34:14yeah
34:15locked
34:19is his face?
34:23What?
34:26Is his face?
34:41Right, Mum.
34:46I'm in...
34:48Turkey.
34:50Turkey.
34:52Love, Jordan.
35:03The kit Maureen used isn't faulty.
35:07And the transmitter is working perfectly.
35:10Fuck.
35:12I wondered if Asadi had used some kind of jamming device,
35:16but there was no other signal issues reported from the hotel.
35:19So, it must have been a very localised block.
35:23I think Maureen's kit was placed in some kind of Faraday pouch.
35:28Now, if you've not got one of these, you can improvise.
35:31Tin foil.
35:34Just watch this.
35:35It's not 100%, but...
35:41See?
35:45Now, all the live audio was recorded for the operation as usual.
35:49And I know Maureen's was pretty much a dead end, but I...
35:54You had a look anyway, Chief.
35:56I had a look anyway, Chief.
35:58Now, visually, you can see these occasional spikes in the audio.
36:02But...
36:04If I run it through the XPO5 filter, you get something we can decode.
36:11And if we run that through our AI software...
36:17We couldn't do the whole conversation, but I...
36:23I cleaned up another spike in the audio.
36:40This stays between us.
36:41This stays between us.
36:42This stays between us.
36:43Like this, just before we skip.
36:44Let's go, Chief.
36:45So it makes you remember this.
36:46This potential was very satisfying, right?
36:48A bit now.
36:49Tofu Çaчивop6, we're great.
36:50Now we'll get to hurt ourselves.
36:52Come to Kiota Mill after we're using our
36:53Myné's got to hurt ourselves, okay?
36:55Hold on up.
36:58How sweet is that?
36:59Now this is going to go.
37:10Let's do this...
37:11Add now to Peckoo.
37:12You were held hostage for two months on the Iranian border by the Iranian revolution
37:42of regard but for some reason they let you go. Why was that?
37:48You have to come clean now.
37:49I don't work for the Iranians.
37:51Don't lie to me.
37:52I don't work for Qasim Asadi. Qasim Asadi works for us. He's an agent for MI6.
38:04Major General Qasim Asadi is Six's jewel in the crown. No one in five knows about Asadi's
38:09true loyalty to us. Only half a dozen people know about him at Six. Look at me. You know
38:16I'm telling the truth.
38:17So then, what was your job? Just to get in the way of my investigation?
38:24Qasim's been undercover within the hardliners faction for two decades. And the regular intelligence
38:30he's provided is gold, John. It's gold.
38:34He really belongs to Six.
38:35But when his hardline masters wanted him to utilize his business relationship with
38:41Beeston to assassinate Fatima Faizi, well, he was caught between a rock and a hard place.
38:48So is the attack happening?
38:49He needs to make it look like he's going ahead with it. It has to be convincing. But at the
38:53crucial moment, the device won't work.
38:55Well, then why even pretend to do it?
38:58Israel took out most of the high-ranking Revolutionary Guard. And because Asadi survived the bombings,
39:06he's a suspected traitor. The hardline faction's testing him. But he's given me his word the
39:11attack won't happen. And Qasim Asadi's word has been good for as long as I've known him.
39:16So it's all just a matter of trust?
39:17It is. I've worked with him for ten years. He saved my life when he secured my release
39:26on the border. He's risked his own life to provide us with intelligence that saved hundreds
39:31of thousands of lives. But you, you wouldn't let it go. Qasim's our man. He's one of the
39:41good guys. Don't blow this, John. This will have repercussions for you, for me, for peace
39:50and security in Iran and the Middle East. You have to keep this to yourself because if
39:55this gets out, then we're all totally fucked.
40:11you have to keep this to yourself.
40:27This is a crime.
40:30You're a cyberpunk.
40:34You're a secondary.
40:39Mum?
40:46Is that you, John?
40:48Hiya.
40:50Is Claire all right? Are the children all right?
40:53Yeah, everything's all right.
40:55Oh, it's late. I thought something terrible had happened.
40:59No. Everything's fine.
41:02I just missed your mum, that's all.
41:06Oh, I miss you, son. Sometimes I could cry all day.
41:12Oh, don't say that.
41:15Oh, I know you're all busy in London and that.
41:19It's just hard to get up with so much going on at work.
41:24Don't worry about me. I know you try.
41:27Every time I see the Home Office come on the news,
41:30I say to meself, they work my job hard.
41:35I was speaking to Claire and we wondered if you wanted to come down to London at Christmas.
41:46Do I want to come to London at Christmas?
41:52Yeah. All the family can be together.
41:56That'll be lovely. You've made my day. And Claire, she's all right with it?
42:06Yeah, she's really looking forward to seeing you.
42:09That's made my year, that ass.
42:13All right, well, I'll come up and pick you up.
42:16You'll do no such thing. I'll get meself a taxi till Armstreet and you can pick me up from Euston.
42:26Sound. Listen, I better go. I love you, Mum.
42:32I love you too, son.
42:34I love you too, son.
42:35I love you too.
43:04That flag on Jordan's phone, it's come good.
43:06It was switched on for two minutes last night,
43:08but I managed to get a fix on the location.
43:11One sec.
43:18It's near Warrington.
43:19I'll drop you up here.
43:34Oh, Jesus Christ!
44:04Carl!
44:18Carl, let's go!
44:25Yeah, yeah, we're leaving.
44:34We'll see you at reception.
44:55We'll see you next time.
45:16We'll see you next time.
45:46Oh.
46:16We'll see you next time.
46:31We'll see you next time.
47:01We'll see you next time.
