00:01Viewers like you make this program possible.
00:04Support your local PBS station.
00:30We're still awaiting the official cause of death, but given he had a 12-inch blade through his heart, I'd be surprised if it was natural causes.
00:43Erwin, you'll take the lead on this?
00:46Yes, sir.
00:47Phelps and James work through a list of known associates. Given his previous convictions, I am sure we'll find some familiar faces.
00:53All right, that'll be all. Thank you.
01:00Yes, Detective Phelps.
01:03You put Erwin in charge.
01:05The victim is from Holloway. Erwin has informants in the area.
01:08I've not led a case in months.
01:10I evaluate each investigation on its individual merits. It's not personal.
01:14Are you sure about that?
01:18If you have something to say, you can say it.
01:23I've tried my best to make this work, for you want me gone.
01:27You think they should have got rid of me when you took over?
01:30You're making problems where there are none.
01:33This is about me getting the job, and you being unable to accept that.
01:38People respect me here.
01:41If I say the word, you've got a mutiny on your hands.
01:44Well, that's a chance I'll just have to take.
01:49All right, lads, a bit of us, please. I've got something I want to say.
01:52All right, lads, a bit of us, please. I've got something I want to say.
02:17I said quiet!
02:28Things haven't been right for a while.
02:31Our new inspector seems to think he can ride roughshod over us, do what the hell he likes.
02:37Well, enough is enough. He needs to start showing us more respect.
02:46So l say, let's go and see him in the morning.
02:50Tell him if things don't change, every man is downing tools and walking out.
02:54I just need to know one thing.
03:00Who's with me?
03:10I said, who's with me?
03:13He's with me.
04:13Have you seen my notebook?
04:23No. Have you looked in your bag?
04:25But I can't find my bag.
04:27Well, slightly in that bedroom of yours, which, by the way, could do with a tidy young lady.
04:31Does Mr. Potts really need to bring all these things?
04:34He wants everything here so he can move in straight after the wedding.
04:37It's sweet.
04:43How are the wedding plans going?
04:46You seem rather calm.
04:47I don't feel it.
04:49There's the cake to ice, the food to make, my dress to adjust, and Barnabas said he's put on a few pounds, so he wants me to let out his waistcoat.
04:56Thank you again.
05:01What?
05:03For being so understanding about Barnabas moving in.
05:06It means the world to me that I can stay on living here.
05:10That'd be nice, the three of us together.
05:13I'm sure it will be.
05:15Just ask him not to bring any more things.
05:17I think that is everything, my jewel.
05:25Barnabas, I'm sewing my wedding dress.
05:27You're not meant to see it.
05:28It's bad luck.
05:29Oh, I don't think it's bad luck when one is marrying the most beautiful woman in the world that the good Lord has ever put on this earth.
05:37In a few mere days, you will make me the happiest man alive.
05:41You are so sweet.
05:43Isn't he sweet, Lizzie?
05:44Oh, well, before I forget, Miss Scarlet, I almost broke my neck on your bag when I arrived earlier, lying right in the middle of the hallway, if you please.
05:55So I'll put it into your bedroom, a place for everything and everything in its place.
06:00Quite right.
06:02And I hope I do not speak out of turn when I say that room of yours could do with a little tidy.
06:14Good day, Inspector Blake.
06:30Miss Scarlet, are you feeling unwell?
06:34No.
06:35Why do you ask?
06:36You knocked on the door, then waited in and entered just as a normal person might do.
06:41Don't worry.
06:42I shan't make a habit of it.
06:46It's the invoice for the Davidson case.
06:48I believe we've had this conversation before.
06:50The accounts department's on the ground floor.
06:52Oh.
06:54Well, I'm here now.
06:56So while I am, I also wondered if...
06:58If there were any cases that required your attention?
07:00No.
07:05But I do have something for you.
07:08The latest copy of Hayward's Forensic Science.
07:11I ordered one for you.
07:13I take it that's a publication you enjoy?
07:18Yes.
07:20Yes, it is.
07:21It's by way of saying thank you for giving Sophia a tour of your office.
07:27It would seem I'm no longer her favourite detective.
07:30Well, we ladies must stick together.
07:35I don't know what to say.
07:37Say thank you, Inspector Blake.
07:38Then leave promptly so that I may continue my work.
07:43Thank you, Inspector Blake.
08:00Hi, Detective Phelps.
08:04How are you?
08:05Go and ask.
08:15I just saw Detective Phelps.
08:18He's not having the best of times recently.
08:20He rather humiliated himself the other night.
08:22So I heard.
08:24Wish I'd been there.
08:25I could have talked him out of it.
08:27Would he have listened to you?
08:28Not in the least.
08:30Oliver.
08:31Good morning, Father.
08:33I have a message from your mother.
08:35She wishes the three of us to dine together this evening.
08:39Oh, yes.
08:39Yes, of course.
08:42Forgive me, Miss Scarlet.
08:43I don't believe you've been introduced.
08:45This is my father, Sir George Fitzroy.
08:47Father, this is Miss Eliza Scarlet.
08:49She's a private detective.
08:50She's helped us on numerous occasions.
08:52It's a pleasure to meet you.
08:53Madam.
08:54Eight o'clock.
08:55Chancellor is on Piccadilly.
08:56Don't be late.
09:00It's my mother's birthday.
09:02Her annual attempt to build a bridge between myself and my father.
09:06Well, I wish you good luck.
09:08Believe me, I'll need it.
09:09Did you enjoy the lamb?
09:26Yes.
09:26It was excellent.
09:28Very tender and the sauce was superb.
09:30I should hope so at these prices.
09:31I trust you are eating well, Oliver.
09:36Those long hours at work are rarely conducive to a good diet.
09:39If I say yes, will you stop worrying?
09:41I'm your mother.
09:42I'll never stop worrying.
09:44As long as you're getting plenty of sleep.
09:46Oh, for God's sake, woman.
09:47He's not a child.
09:47Well, I'm going to ask for the bill.
09:54I have a meeting in my club.
10:00How is your friend, the lady detective?
10:04Miss Scarlet, isn't it?
10:06One moment, sir.
10:07For God's sake!
10:08It is mother's birthday.
10:12Can you make an effort just for once?
10:13How dare you speak to me in that manner?
10:15George, please.
10:16I will happily foot the bill if you go to your club without delay.
10:21Well, in that case, you can see your mother home.
10:32I cannot abide his rudeness.
10:35Oh, I'm sorry, mother.
10:37I didn't mean to upset you.
10:38It's not that.
10:40What is it?
10:42Mother?
10:45Just take me home, Oliver.
10:48Please.
10:49Yes, of course.
11:04Ivy, it's barely seven o'clock and you're already baking.
11:07I just need to get a few of these in the oven before I head off to work.
11:11Whilst you're here, try this.
11:18Mmm.
11:19Absolutely delicious.
11:21Your father used to love them too.
11:22He had a sweet tooth, just like you.
11:25How many are you making?
11:26Well, there's 30 guests, so a couple each, I suppose.
11:31Ivy, this is new.
11:33Hayward's forensic science.
11:35Fancy.
11:37Spencer Blake brought it for me.
11:38Did he now?
11:42What can I do to help?
11:43You don't have to look so surprised when I offer my help to cook.
11:48It wasn't surprise.
11:49It was fear.
11:50It's a fascinating book.
12:00Apparently, each person's fingerprint is as unique as a snowflake.
12:05The potential for forensic investigation is enormous.
12:07I'm currently engrossed in the biography of Luca Pacioli, the legendary father of accounting.
12:15He, of course, invented the double-entry system of bookkeeping.
12:18Oh, of course.
12:19The biographer goes into minute detail of every entry in every ledger and still manages to keep the book down to just 900 pages.
12:28Is that all?
12:28Good morning.
12:33Good morning.
12:36You are Miss Scarlet?
12:38I am.
12:39How can I help?
12:40The matter I wish to discuss is somewhat delicate.
12:43I have some errands to run.
12:48Take a seat.
12:48It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Mrs. Fitzroy.
12:57Your son is a good man and an excellent detective.
13:01You must be very proud.
13:05I'm in two minds about whether I should even be here.
13:09I've stood outside your office many times before but lacked the courage to enter.
13:15Are you here now?
13:16And whatever you tell me will remain confidential.
13:23My husband and I have been wed 30 years.
13:27I've turned a blind eye to his moods, his rudeness, his inability to say a good word about anyone.
13:34But there is one thing I cannot ignore.
13:38His adultery.
13:42You believe he's being unfaithful?
13:45Well, he disappears for entire evenings, claiming to be at some club or other.
13:50I know he's lying.
13:52I speak to the wives of the men he's supposed to have met with.
13:56Then, last week, he received a bill from a florist in Greek Street.
14:02I saw it left open on his desk.
14:04He's been buying red roses, dozens of them, for weeks.
14:11God knows who for, certainly not for me.
14:13I just need to know the truth.
14:17I can see the toll this is taking on you, Mrs. Fitzroy, and I'm truly sorry.
14:22But if I were to take your case, it would put me in a difficult position, both with my friendship with Oliver and my work at Scotland Yard.
14:32Your husband is the police commissioner.
14:34The rest of my business would be great.
14:36I understand your reservations, but please, I cannot trust anyone else with this.
14:46I'm desperate, or I would never have come.
14:49I'm desperate, or I would never have come.
15:19I'm desperate, or I would never have come.
15:49Not the police commissioner.
15:50He'd just let me explain.
15:51The single most powerful man had done the policing.
15:53The man who could blackball you from Scotland Yard.
15:57The man who is the cousin to the forensic retreat.
15:59That's not letting me explain.
16:01The poor woman was devastated.
16:07Trust you've not yet told Mrs. Fitzroy what you witnessed last night?
16:11No.
16:12Not yet.
16:14The situation is more complex than it first appeared.
16:17More complex than the police commissioner having a dalliance with a young man.
16:21Yes.
16:23There's something else.
16:24Oh, Lord.
16:24After the commissioner went into the building, I decided to wait outside.
16:30Of course you did.
16:32An hour later, the door opened.
16:33I watched the commissioner leave and was about to follow him.
16:44But a few moments later, the young man left the premises too.
16:49There's nothing to go now.
17:16Yeah.
17:17Thank you, brother, baby.
17:21Hey, darling.
17:37Oi!
17:38Watch it, darling.
17:40Sorry.
17:41So you bloody should be.
17:47The bag was gone.
17:52I believe he left it on purpose for someone else to collect.
17:55Well, maybe it was just stolen.
17:56It was only a matter of seconds.
17:58He didn't even finish his drink.
17:59He just looked at his watch, got up and walked off.
18:02There's something else going on here.
18:03I know it.
18:04Do you want my advice?
18:05No, of course you don't.
18:06But I'm going to give it to you anyway.
18:08Do not involve yourself in this any further.
18:10Tell Mrs. Fitzroy that you did not see her husband
18:12and that you cannot continue with this case.
18:17Get your morning arrow, dear.
18:25Get your morning arrow, dear.
18:35Oh, there you go, son.
18:37Thank you, sir.
18:38Thank you, sir.
18:38Why are you following me?
19:04If you're intending to rob me,
19:07I would highly advise against it.
19:09I'm a detective at Scotland Yard.
19:11You're coming with me.
19:25Thank you, Sings.
19:26They didn't say anything to you?
19:46Not a word.
19:50And you can't remember what they look like?
19:52It's all a bit hazy, sir.
19:57I remember buying a newspaper.
20:02I vaguely remember being in an alley.
20:05That's about it.
20:08The doctor said I have a concussion.
20:12What we do know is that they robbed you.
20:15Your pocket watch and wallet were stolen.
20:17Her mother gave me that watch for my 21st birthday.
20:22She'll be most upset.
20:27Oliver.
20:32Oh, my boy.
20:35It's not as bad as it looks, mother.
20:40I will find you did this, Mrs. Fitzroy.
20:43You have my word.
20:44Detective Fitzroy has a concussion and three broken ribs.
21:02Gentlemen.
21:04The best way we can help him is by keeping calm and doing our job.
21:10Without a clear description of the attackers,
21:12this means house-to-house inquiries.
21:14I also want a list of everyone Fitzroy has arrested or charged in the last two years.
21:21And you're to lean on every informant that you have.
21:24Do whatever it takes.
21:25This is one of our own.
21:26Yes, sir.
21:26Case inspector.
21:29Detective Phelps.
21:32Yes.
21:32Yes.
21:32Yes.
21:33Yes.
21:33Yes.
21:34Yes.
21:34Yes.
21:35Yes.
21:35Yes.
21:36Yes.
21:36Yes.
21:37I know the resentment that you carry, but now is not the time.
21:40So if I get a hint of that during this investigation, you will be dismissed on the spot.
21:45Do you understand?
21:46Believe me, I want to find a scum who did this as much as you do.
21:51I've only just heard.
21:59How is he?
22:00He'll live.
22:01Looks like it was a robbery.
22:03Are you sure?
22:06Why would you say that?
22:09No.
22:10Mrs Fitzroy, this is Miss Scarlet, a friend and associate of your son's.
22:15Pleased to make your acquaintance with Scarlet.
22:17Likewise.
22:22Please do excuse me.
22:23I need to find a doctor.
22:24My son is in a lot of pain.
22:36What?
22:37If you knew something about this attack, you would tell me.
22:40Of course I would.
22:43I know nothing about it.
22:47Then I shall get on with the business of finding who ever did this.
23:03I just can't shake the feeling that whatever happened to Detective Fitzroy was not a random robbery.
23:09People are robbed every day in the city.
23:10Clarence, I'm quite sure that I'd witnessed a bag drop between the young man that the police commissioner was seeing and someone in that pub.
23:17And then, out of nowhere, the commissioner's son gets beaten up.
23:21There's something off here.
23:23Well, have you told the inspector of your suspicions?
23:25I couldn't.
23:26Marion Fitzroy was there and she made it abundantly clear she wanted to conceal any association between us.
23:30And anyway, I'm bound by client confidentiality.
23:39Not if someone's life's at risk or not.
23:41As Patrick would say, you have the uncanny ability to make what is already a dire situation even more unsatisfactory, Clarence.
23:49Eliza.
23:49Please, just say something positive.
23:54Back inside.
23:55Now.
23:56Have you listened to it?
24:14Listened to what?
24:16Have you listened to it?
24:19I've no idea what you're talking about.
24:22Yes, you do.
24:23She does not neither of us, too.
24:24Tell him to be quiet.
24:25Be quiet, Clarence.
24:27We know that you followed police commissioner.
24:30And that you saw him with Alexei.
24:33Alexei?
24:34That's the young man the commissioner was visiting.
24:38We also know that you took Alexei's bag.
24:41And that you now possess what was in it.
24:44So.
24:45I'll ask you one more time.
24:48Have you listened to it?
24:50No, because I didn't take the bag someone else must have.
24:52You're a liar.
24:53She does not out there.
24:54Be quiet, Clarence.
24:55You have five seconds to tell me the truth.
24:58Or my colleague here will put a bullet in your friend's head.
25:04Five.
25:05Four.
25:06That's life.
25:07Three.
25:10No, I haven't listened to it.
25:13But I do have it.
25:14Where is it?
25:16Somewhere safe, not here.
25:20Take us to it, now.
25:21Well, if I do, then you'll kill us.
25:23I'll kill you if you don't.
25:25Well, then, you'll never find it.
25:28Nor will I tell you if you harm my colleague.
25:31What do you propose?
25:38I'll retrieve the bag and its contents.
25:42Leave it in the office, which I'll leave unlocked tomorrow night.
25:45You reclaim what's yours.
25:46We go our separate ways.
25:48If you try to follow me, I'll go straight to Scotland Yard.
25:50You have until tomorrow night.
26:06You have no idea where that bag is, do you?
26:21Not a clue.
26:24Inspector Blake.
26:36Good evening, sir.
26:37I've been out of town all day.
26:39I've just heard what's happened to my son.
26:41What can you tell me?
26:43Nothing concrete yet, I'm afraid, sir.
26:44We're still following several lines of inquiry.
26:47But be assured every available man is working the case.
26:49Well, I'm glad to hear it.
26:50His mother is beside herself with worry.
26:53It was a robbery?
26:54It would appear so.
26:55So, he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
26:58That is what I intend to find out.
27:00But I would still like to consider all options, sir.
27:03Can you think of anyone who would wish harm on Oliver?
27:06No.
27:07Now, my son has many faults.
27:09But making enemies is not one of them.
27:13And yourself?
27:15Myself?
27:16There have been times where a man in high positions such as yourself
27:19has found his family at threat in some way.
27:21Well, that's not the case here.
27:24I'm sure of it.
27:25Yes.
27:25But perhaps, to be certain, we might...
27:27Are you wasting your time?
27:29Yours and mine.
27:32If you'll make any progress, you'll tell me, won't you?
27:35Immediately.
27:35Yes, sir.
27:48I'm still not convinced it was wise to tell those thugs you had what they were looking for.
27:51Well, we're alive, aren't we?
27:53Not for now.
27:53What do you think they meant when they said, have you listened to it?
27:59Listened to what?
28:00Not the slightest idea.
28:02The only thing I am sure about is that there is a link between the Commissioner,
28:05whoever those men were, and the attack on Oliver Fitzroy.
28:08This link, I fail to see how it's going to stop me being killed.
28:12We'll make a plan in the morning, Clarence.
28:14Everything feels better after a good night's sleep.
28:16I doubt I'll get any sleep.
28:17Try reading that book on your famous accountant.
28:21I shall.
28:23Yes.
28:26Hmm.
28:46Ivy?
28:47Ivy?
28:51Ivy?
29:07I am intrigued with your decor, Miss Scarlet.
29:11It's rather eclectic.
29:13Or are you setting up a curiosity shop?
29:17My housekeeper, what have you done with her?
29:20Well, she's gone out the evening with a rather loquacious gentleman.
29:25She has my sympathy.
29:30Do you always enter people's houses without permission?
29:32Yes, all the time.
29:35You can run if you like, but I wouldn't recommend it.
29:40Now, sit.
29:42We've met before.
29:50Oi!
29:51Watch it, darling.
29:52Sorry.
29:54So you bloody should be.
29:58You were a decoy to stop me from getting that bag, weren't you?
30:00Who are you?
30:01Who are you?
30:05You can call me Miss Scott.
30:10Is that your real name?
30:13You will cease your investigation into Commissioner Fitzroy with immediate effect.
30:17And what if I don't?
30:18Hmm.
30:19Think of the worst thing you can imagine.
30:27The most pain.
30:29The most humiliation.
30:31The very sum of all of your fears.
30:37My friend who will deliver it.
30:46Cease your investigation.
30:48Do I make myself clear?
30:53You do.
30:57Splitted.
30:57Anything?
31:09Braid not.
31:10I've leaned on every narc, scrote and snitch on both sides of the river.
31:14Not a word.
31:16How persuasive are you?
31:17I use the carrot and the stick.
31:19Mostly the stick.
31:20No one knows anything.
31:22I've spoken to the other lads too.
31:24They're all saying the same.
31:27But there is someone I haven't yet asked.
31:30Someone who's well connected.
31:32In the criminal sense.
31:35He's about as criminal as they come.
31:37Yeah.
31:39Which may that be?
31:41My uncle.
31:42Your uncle is Dylan Cooper.
31:53That is to say the least a conflict of interest.
31:56We're not close.
31:58Not since I joined the force.
32:00In fact,
32:01I heard a rumour he had a price on me head.
32:05How reliable is that rumour?
32:07Mr Cooper will see you now.
32:09Let's find out.
32:11You got a minute?
32:20You brought back up.
32:22He works with me.
32:23I'm Detective Inspector Blake.
32:26I know who you are.
32:30Sit down.
32:31Didn't you used to have a easy job?
32:40How are you, Uncle?
32:41What do you care?
32:42You never come see me.
32:43I'm here now, aren't I?
32:45Always were a lippy little sod.
32:48Even as in ever.
32:49We're not here to reminisce.
32:52What are you here for?
32:53Nobody knows what goes on in this city better than you, Mr Cooper.
32:58And we need your help.
33:00And why would I help you?
33:02Because then I would be in your debt.
33:05And I'm a man who knows how to repay his debts.
33:11Nah, you ain't that type of copper.
33:12One of my men has been hurt.
33:15And I will do whatever it takes to get answers.
33:20You see, that's why he's got your job.
33:24You could learn the thing or two from him, son.
33:28So?
33:32What you heard?
33:35Only because you're kin.
33:36There's this fella.
33:42Sells papers off the corner of Old Pits Lane.
33:44Done it for years.
33:45He knows every copper on his pitch.
33:51Your lad bought a paper off him.
33:54He reckons the boy was being followed.
34:02That's all I know.
34:06I'll head over to Old Pits Lane.
34:10See if he won't find this paper seller.
34:12It's two o'clock in the morning.
34:13He won't be there for hours.
34:14Then I'll wait.
34:16Suppose that seals it, right?
34:20Now you've seen where I'm from,
34:22good reason to get rid of me.
34:26That's one way of looking at it.
34:29Another would be that you have access to a valuable resource
34:32and showed great character sharing it with a senior officer.
34:36Find that witness.
34:39Come in, Miss Scarlet.
35:07Inspector Blake.
35:08Curious.
35:09Do you ever sleep?
35:11Well, it's practically morning.
35:14I need a moment with you.
35:16Actually, more than a moment.
35:17Several moments.
35:19There's a lot to explain.
35:20I'll tell you on the way.
35:22On the way to where?
35:24Come along.
35:24Come along.
35:50And this is where you saw the commissioner.
36:20In this Alexei.
36:21It is.
36:22And these Russians think you stole his bag.
36:26Something inside it that you can listen to.
36:29But I've no idea what.
36:31Nor do I understand how this Miss Scott and her red-headed associate fit into all this.
36:36You sure he's not in?
36:38Positive. The lights have been off all night.
36:41I believe it's a good place to start and try and find some answers.
36:43I knew I was right.
36:46About what?
36:47At the hospital.
36:48I could tell there was something you weren't telling me.
36:49Do you really want to have that conversation now?
36:53My friend Alexei has expensive tastes.
37:10Drapes are pure silk.
37:19Yet the address is far from salubrious.
37:21All the exterior was picked to be discreet.
37:24I suspect the interior was designed to appeal to a gentleman of wealth and influence.
37:28Like the commissioner.
37:29Do you think, as I do, that all this is linked to the attack on Oliver Fitzroy?
37:41I do.
37:47Have you listened to it?
37:49That's what the Russians asked you.
37:51I still have no idea what they were referring to.
37:53Could it be this?
38:05Wax cylinder.
38:08I don't see a phonograph it could be played on.
38:12Perhaps Alexei doesn't own one.
38:13Maybe not.
38:15But I do.
38:20Let's see what we have here.
38:21That's the man who had a gun to my head.
38:42I recognize his voice.
38:43Alexei?
38:49That's the young man that the commissioner was named.
38:56Do you speak Russian?
38:57I was taught basic Russian when I served in the Afghan wars back in 78.
39:02The Russian threat was growing and if you were captured, survival was more likely if you could communicate.
39:07What does it say?
39:08When the clock strikes nine, Alexei must come to the place where his favorite bird lives.
39:15His greyhead friend will be...
39:17Stuart.
39:19I don't know that word.
39:22The greyhead friend must be the commissioner.
39:25Where's the meeting place where his favorite bird lives?
39:29Your favorite bird.
39:31Stuart.
39:33What does it mean?
39:35Erased.
39:36You're going to kill him?
39:38Nine o'clock.
39:41It's half past eight now.
39:43Come.
39:46I went to speak to the newspaper seller but before I could get to him he was harassed by a woman and what looked like a thug.
39:54Was this thug have red hair?
39:56He did.
39:57Do you think this is who came to your home?
39:59Did you find out who they are?
40:00They drove off in a carriage.
40:02I managed to follow them to some disused warehouses in Kilburn.
40:05Then I lost them.
40:07Where is this place?
40:08Just north of the I-road.
40:10Blackbird Lane.
40:23Alexei.
40:25Why on earth are we meeting here?
40:29What's going on?
40:29I'm sorry.
40:32What have you done, Alexei?
40:34Police!
40:35Place your weapon on the ground.
40:37We have uniform on their way.
40:38Soon this old place will be surrounded.
40:40So I will say this only once more.
40:42Put down your weapon.
40:45Put your weapon on the ground.
41:14Now!
41:18There is no need to shout, Inspector.
41:27We'll gladly do as you ask.
41:36I told you to wait in the carriage.
41:38I did until I heard gunfire.
41:40Who are you?
41:48British Intelligence, for Her Majesty's Government.
41:51My codename is The Governors.
42:08I work for the Queen's Department Level 3.
42:10As I'm sure you're aware, there are many divisions in the British Security Service.
42:15QD3 is the least known.
42:18Some may say the murkiest of them all.
42:21And you've been monitoring the police commissioner?
42:23We became aware of the Russians' attempt to groom him.
42:27They put an agent, the young Alexei, in his path.
42:31His job was to find the security arrangements and the new Royal Naval Ship being built.
42:35Like Deptford Docks?
42:36Precisely.
42:38It's the Navy's technical advancements in particular the Russians are after.
42:42And, well, Commissioner Fitzroy is a well-connected man.
42:46Not only in his position here, but also in British Government.
42:50In particular, his family connection as cousin to the Foreign Secretary.
42:53Was it his intention to work with the Russians?
42:56Good God, no.
42:57The man was oblivious to the fact he was being played.
43:01But that all came to a head when the Russians discovered their operation had been breached.
43:06By Miss Scarlet here.
43:09At that point, the commissioner's days were numbered.
43:13Oh, these belong to Detective Fitzroy.
43:18He was being trailed to see if he was involved or aware of his father's activities.
43:22Unfortunately for him, he turned out to be a rather astute detective and realised he was being followed.
43:28My men had no choice but to cover their tracks and make it look like a robbery.
43:33Detective Fitzroy made the mistake in fighting back.
43:39I do apologise for his entanglement.
43:42Entanglement?
43:43It was beaten to a pulp.
43:45What I have told you here today must remain in the strictest of confidence.
43:54If there is a leak, I cannot promise there will not be repercussions.
43:59No one is immune.
44:01And it will be out of my hands, I'm afraid.
44:03What of the commissioner?
44:04He'll retire, live out the rest of his life quietly in the countryside.
44:10The last thing he wants is the world to know what he's got tied up in.
44:14At least to all his family.
44:18Good day, gentlemen.
44:20Miss Scarlet.
44:21Miss Scott.
44:22All right, I'm off too.
44:28Head to the hospital, check on his lordship.
44:30Detective Phelps.
44:34That was good work.
44:39Thank you, Skipper.
44:40Drink?
44:56Make it a double.
45:02Have you ever encountered someone like her before?
45:05Like the governess?
45:07Never.
45:07It doesn't surprise me that there are female spies working for the government,
45:12but the whole set of position of authority.
45:18An impressive woman indeed.
45:23Good day.
45:25Good day.
45:26It is with great honour and much unbound joy
45:42that I now raise a glass to my beautiful wife,
45:47to Ivy Elizabeth Potts.
45:52How are you, Oliver?
46:08A great deal better, thank you.
46:10And even more so after speaking to my mother this morning.
46:13My father has decided to leave the police force
46:16and retire to our country home in Surrey.
46:18It is most welcome news.
46:20You might be breathing down my neck all the time.
46:21That is welcome news.
46:25It's your third glass.
46:27Oh, who's counting?
46:30When I met Clarence, Oliver, he was teetotal.
46:33Oh, our Miss Scarlet has tended to drink.
46:35Let's just say, working with her, there's never a dull moment.
46:39Yeah, this champagne is quite exquisite.
46:47Cost a pretty penny, I bet.
46:49Well, I'm paying for it, so you can put it on the ledge, Clarence.
46:53Here you go, Your Highness.
46:55Thank you, Charlie.
46:57I can see Detective Phelps is looking after you.
46:59Oh, he's got me running around like a blue-arsed fly.
47:03Inspector Blake lent me his carriage.
47:04Each morning, Charlie collects me and takes me to work.
47:06Look, I've told him I'm perfectly capable and don't need assistance.
47:09Oh, look at his lordship here.
47:11I'm not assisting you.
47:13All I care about is a free ride to work.
47:16Speaking of Inspector Blake, I assumed he'd be invited.
47:19Indeed he was, but his daughter was unwell.
47:21Nothing serious, just a cold.
47:22But he still sent his carriage to bring me here.
47:25He's quite the gentleman, isn't he?
47:27He certainly is.
47:28Everybody got a drink?
47:30Yes.
47:32We must be on our way.
47:34Margate awaits.
47:35We do not want to miss the train.
47:37Barnabas, if we leave now, we're going to be an hour early.
47:40Better three hours too soon than one minute too late, my dear.
47:44Mr. Potts is right, Ivy.
47:47Well, surely you must now call him Barnabas.
47:49Mustn't she, Barnabas?
47:50Yes, of course.
47:58Well then, Barnabas.
48:02Barnabas.
48:02Barnabas.
48:03I'll send you a postcard, please do.
48:33I'll send you a postcard, please do.
49:03I'll send you a postcard.
49:33I'll send you a postcard.
50:03I'll send you a postcard.
50:10I'll send you a postcard.
50:17I'll send you a postcard.
50:24I'll send you a postcard.
50:31Well, since you couldn't come to the wedding, I bought her and you some wedding cake.
50:38I'll send you a postcard.
50:45I'll send you a postcard.
50:52I'll send you a postcard.
50:59I'll send you a postcard.
51:06I'll send you a postcard.
51:13I'll send you a postcard.
51:20Miss Scarlet.
51:27Would you like to come in?
51:28Yes.
51:30I like that very much.
51:31I like that very much.
51:37I'll send you a postcard.
51:38I'll send you a postcard.
51:39I'll send you a postcard.
51:40I'll send you a postcard.
51:42I'll send you a postcard.
