00:21Oh
00:50No, you're not in my car.
00:51Give me my book.
00:54Look, you've got it under that window.
00:55It's my book.
00:57Hello, darling.
01:00Oh, darling.
01:01What's the matter?
01:04It's Suki. Suki's dead.
01:06Oh, no.
01:07She was killed.
01:09Somebody's killed her.
01:13We'll get another one.
01:14I promise you we'll get another.
01:17Don't worry, darling.
01:18You haven't got your nice new little kitten, OK?
01:22Off you go, love.
01:23Look.
01:24We'll talk about it when you get home, OK?
01:27Let's come pick one up.
01:28Pick the book.
01:29Go, go, go.
01:31Go, go.
01:32Go, go.
01:49I don't know.
02:34What's all you yelling about, babe?
02:36The cat. The cat's dead.
02:39Oh, bloody cats. We'll run over, we'll...
02:41This was shoved through the door, and Suki was dumped on the doorstep.
02:52One, two, three, four, five.
02:56You'll be all right.
02:58You'll have something to remember.
03:00A lot to remember.
03:03One, two, three, four, five.
03:07But you'll be all right.
03:09What are we going to do, Jack?
03:11I'll walk tonight.
03:12I'll make a phone call.
03:13Who?
03:17Doyle.
03:28I'll make a phone call.
03:28Come on.
03:34I'll be all right.
03:38Let's go.
04:25Doyle, got a caller who won't give his name.
04:29What do you mean he won't give his name? Tell him to go to hell.
04:32He says to tell you the Maiden Lane job.
04:36The Maiden Lane job.
04:39You all right, Primo?
04:41Ray Doyle.
04:43Who's this?
04:43Stone. Jack Stone.
04:45Oh, come on. What is this? Some kind of gag?
04:46No, it's me. Look, I can prove it. You collared me on that dog track job.
04:50Couldn't make it stick. Held me way over the limit without seeing me lawyer.
04:54But I wriggled out of it.
04:55Put a trace on number one, quick.
04:56It's me, Doyle. Stone.
04:57Yeah, all right, Jack. It's you. When you're out of your head, where are you?
05:01I'm coming today.
05:02Look, I'll give myself up to you if you would do something for me.
05:04Come, my bandit, and God knows what.
05:06All right.
05:06I'll be at my place. Springfield Road, you know it.
05:10Well, you should do. You turned it over often enough in the old days.
05:13Yeah, I know it, Jack. It's going back a bit. Look, I'll find it, all right?
05:16Listen, don't come round the front or the game's up. There's some allotments round the back.
05:19Can you come in on the choir round about daylight?
05:21It's damn near dawn already. Yeah, all right, I'll find it.
05:25I've given you up for dead, mate.
05:27Yeah, I might have been better off all round if I was.
05:37Hello?
05:38Four-five?
05:39Yeah, shake Bodie out of his reverie, will you? Tell him I'll pick him up in ten minutes.
05:51Bye-bye.
06:57Hello, Jack.
07:32Hello, Jack.
07:32Where'd you spring from?
07:32Hello, Jack.
07:44Where'd you spring from?
07:46All over the place.
07:47What's out in the garden? Not the loot, is it?
07:50Eight-month-old pup, kids' dog.
07:55How long you been here?
07:57What's the difference?
07:58Difference? A lot of people looking for you, mate.
08:00Australia, South America, and here you are.
08:02Yeah, you're the last of the Maryukens, Jack.
08:05Yeah, all the others are safely locked away.
08:07Proper little Houdini you are.
08:09All right, cut out all the clever, clever stuff for a start.
08:12Listen, mate, you sent for me.
08:14I could just as easily have brought the boys in blue.
08:16Some inspector could get promoted over this, you know.
08:19Big splash in the papers, bang, superintendent.
08:22You sent for me.
08:24See, I don't handle this kind of stuff anymore, Jack.
08:26You're not in my class.
08:27My family's been threatened, door. Not me, me family.
08:36Someone's rumbled I'm here.
08:38Well, they know I'm here. At least they know I'm in touch.
08:40One, two, three, four, five. You'll be all right.
08:42You'll have something to do about that.
08:44What's this one, two, three, four, five stuff?
08:47One the cat. Two the dog this morning.
08:49Cool.
08:52So who's on to you, then?
08:53I don't know. Some heavy money front of the job.
08:55Maybe someone wasn't in on the share out.
08:57But you were, weren't you, Jack?
08:59No milk or sugar, thanks, lad.
09:02Have you got one of those polythene bags? Kitchen bags?
09:06Please.
09:08You ripped them off, didn't you, Jack?
09:13Who were they?
09:14I don't know. Wasn't that all out?
09:15Yeah, but you did rip them off.
09:16Listen, we all got ripped off. You don't know what it was like.
09:19I mean, there was money there. There was big money.
09:21By the time everything had been straightened and fixed,
09:23by the time all the money changing had been done, there was nothing left.
09:26Hello, Nick. What did you do down to bed, son?
09:30I heard you talking.
09:32Oh, these are just some friends of mine.
09:33Haven't seen them for a long time.
09:35Now, come on, get yourself back up to bed, eh?
09:36I'm gonna stay down here with you, Dad.
09:38Getting upstairs, lad.
09:39Not now, Nick. Dad's doing some business.
09:43Thanks, lad.
09:48How long had the kids known you were back?
09:50They didn't.
09:52Chrissie and me pretended.
09:54They'd come back from school. Surprise, surprise.
09:56There I am for the night.
09:58Little presents, all that kind of thing.
10:00So where were you?
10:01Upstairs in the bloody rafters, weren't I?
10:04You'd have been better off doing your time.
10:07Who talked, kids?
10:09Come on, you know what they're like.
10:11Not in families like ours, you know that.
10:14Listen, Jack, this is not for us.
10:16All we can do is turn you in.
10:18We can arrange police protection for your family.
10:21All right, they'll have to move away from you.
10:22Listen, now, get it done.
10:22You can't disappear a whole family.
10:25Look, you can't lock me up with that on me mind, can you?
10:27We haven't got a lot of auction, mate.
10:30That blooper wrote that note.
10:31Must have been some kind of a nutter.
10:32Poisoning the cat.
10:33Smashing the dog's head in with a hammer.
10:35I can't leave them like that.
10:36I can't!
10:41If I could just get me hand on a few grand.
10:46Leave it out.
10:49Come on, you've got to have something stashed away.
10:51No way, long gone.
10:53Chris's old man might come up with a few, but...
10:55for her, not for me.
10:56Well, the money's out, Jack.
10:58I'm not asking you, I'm pleading.
11:08And then he turns himself in.
11:10And then we bring him in.
11:11Amazing.
11:12Locks himself in his own private prison.
11:14Yeah, with a few mod cons and amenities.
11:15Rather him than me.
11:17There's more ways of killing a cat.
11:19Is that a bad taste, Joe?
11:20Well, you'd appreciate a laugh, sir, these solemn occasions.
11:24Memorial service for a brave man.
11:26He enjoyed a laugh.
11:28I'm not entirely happy about this.
11:30It's not really our bag.
11:32But I'm seeing the commissioner later.
11:33I might just touch him.
11:34It's our involvement.
11:35I think the few people who know the better.
11:38Are you implying...
11:39No, I'm not implying anything.
11:41I know I should have involved the locals, but...
11:44Well, they're nice kids, you know.
11:46Ah, cry for help.
11:47Yeah, is he waving or drowning?
11:49Another of your jokes?
11:50It's worth a try.
11:51They may be nice kids, but that's a family with a pedigree of villainy on both sides.
11:54His wife's father, Lane Hatch.
11:56The hatchet?
11:57Ah, he's an old man.
11:58A mellowed tune, I doubt.
12:00Well, you have my approval for now.
12:02Low profile.
12:03No big teams wrecking my budget.
12:07You're sure you've got in and out of the house unobserved?
12:09Yes, sir.
12:11We'll carry on.
12:25Bodie, this is not on.
12:26I've just come off duty.
12:28A favour!
12:28Come on, come on.
12:29I've come to the house a favour once in a while.
12:31I suppose there's a schoolteacher.
12:32Well, do I look like a schoolteacher?
12:34Some very dolly ones these days, you know.
12:36Anyway, you could always wear spectacles.
12:37Well, I don't wear spectacles.
12:38The oil's in effect, Scott.
12:39I might have known he'd be behind it.
12:41Well, what is it?
12:42Hey, is this official or what?
12:47Get off.
12:55Oh, the boy's at St Luke's.
12:57I'll take care of him.
12:58Okay.
12:58But remember, I'm not shooting up my whole leave on this number.
13:01Hey, babe.
13:02You and me.
13:03Soon crack it.
13:11Okay, two teams.
13:13That'll do.
13:13Right down the centre.
13:14You lot over there.
13:15And a big one.
13:16Oh.
13:17Okay, lads.
13:18Try now.
13:19Right, the last one.
13:20To that line and back.
13:21It's a sissy.
13:21Go!
13:22Little line and back.
13:24I'm back.
13:25Come on!
13:26Okay, right.
13:27Who wants to play basketball?
13:29Yeah!
13:32Well, that's Linda.
13:34The group leader.
13:35Socks down, hair in a mess.
13:37That's difficult of her.
13:38Those are her best friends this term.
13:39She looks pale.
13:41Well, she's got exams coming up.
13:42But she should do well.
13:43She works hard.
13:44Why the official interest, or shouldn't I ask?
13:46Nothing to do with the children.
13:47The family are...
13:48Dubious.
13:49Right, it's not uncommon.
13:52Now, don't run now.
13:53And no pushing on the stairs.
13:56This is a strange neighbourhood.
13:58Yes, under the veneer of respectability.
14:01Linda's father disappeared some time ago.
14:03Oh, yes.
14:04I remember.
14:05Mother's a nice woman.
14:06She comes to parent meetings, and the children are very well behaved.
14:09Well, they're not disturbed.
14:10Linda's particularly promising.
14:12Yes, I'm sure she is.
14:13Hey, where's your mum?
14:15I don't know.
14:16She probably got stuck again.
14:21Let's walk.
14:22Let's hang on a bit.
14:26Come on, let's walk.
14:34Come on, you've got to admit that.
14:59I'm sorry, honey.
15:02Here we go.
15:06Here we go.
15:07Hurry!
15:08Hurry, hurry!
15:10Hurry, hurry!
15:10Hurry, hurry!
15:17Let's go.
15:50I've seen a couple of school kids, a blonde one and a dark one, both boys.
15:53Yeah, about a minute ago.
15:54Go on up that way, Chief.
15:55Here.
16:16It's really sad, but as you've been very brave, you ain't left us a lullet.
16:21Here's yours.
16:23Now, you don't do that again, all right?
16:26Look, Vicky, where have you been?
16:27You know you've no business to go running off like that.
16:29It's the I-5, all right?
16:31Do you lose Mum?
16:32Yes, I am.
16:34Yeah, well, he's just had a bit of a scare.
16:35He's very frightened, near-miss with a car.
16:37But I don't think you're going to go running off in a hurry, are you?
16:40Again, eh?
16:40Oh, you bad boys.
16:42If I'm late, you stay here and wait for me, okay?
16:44I'm going to find this close.
16:46Now, get in there.
16:47Come on.
16:47Now, you behave yourselves.
17:12Well, that's one.
17:13Home safe and sound.
17:146-2, anything to report?
17:16Quiet as the grave, 3-7.
17:18Have fun.
17:19Now, 3-7 at base, patch me through to 9-1, will you?
17:24Linda's detained for a while.
17:26Bad marks in home economics.
17:28Well, screwed up in the rice pudding.
17:29Something like that.
17:31Yeah, well, stick with her, okay?
17:33All the way home.
17:34Well done.
17:35Thanks, Al.
17:48He's still a bit hot.
17:50He's just a bit shaken.
17:52He'll forget all about it soon.
17:53Dad?
17:54Yes, love?
17:55Was it really an accident?
17:58Well, it seems like it.
18:00Car got out of control, you know?
18:01Some madman just driving too fast.
18:04But, Sookie, and then Paddy.
18:08It's not a nice thing to do.
18:10Well, it's not a very nice thing.
18:11Just some people around, they just don't like pets.
18:15Some funny people of all, Linda.
18:18You're going to stay with us now, Dad?
18:22Yeah, as long as I can, yeah.
18:24Will you have to go away again?
18:25Well, I might do, you know?
18:28Not for a while, will I?
18:32Can't let's get you to bed.
18:35Hey, what's up, Liz?
18:37I haven't worked this time, am I?
18:38Yeah, I've got to get it done.
18:40Yeah, you get some soda.
18:43Go on.
18:49I'll give you a call early in the morning, eh?
18:52Good night.
18:53Good night.
19:17Doyle.
19:22Nice day out for you.
19:24Spot of prison visiting.
19:26Parkhurst, Isle of Wight and Winchester.
19:28Who's on the island?
19:29Barnet Moss.
19:30He put the bank job together, picked the team.
19:32Yeah, I remember him.
19:33Bit of a handful.
19:34That's why he's in top security.
19:56Oh, yeah, it's great, isn't he?
20:02The sea air.
20:08You're always a cigar man, weren't you, Barney?
20:10Big cigar, big flash car.
20:13Didn't bring a bird, I suppose.
20:15Well, a piece of chicken, what's the matter?
20:16Don't you like the food?
20:17All right, who are you?
20:18What do you want?
20:20Doyle, CI5.
20:21CI5?
20:23You were in the regular force.
20:25Limehouse, wasn't it?
20:26Yeah, I did a bit down there.
20:28So now you're with the Derring Do, Mum?
20:30I hope you're well paid for it.
20:32It's a living.
20:33So is feeding pigs.
20:39So, what's it all about?
20:40The Maiden Lane job.
20:43Oh, no, not again.
20:44There's a book on it.
20:46There's another one coming out.
20:48One of the Sundays serialised it.
20:50A weekly rag did the woman's angle.
20:54You could always try reading the trial for six weeks, plus appeals.
20:59Who put up the seed money?
21:05Thanks.
21:06Nice twist on the note, sir.
21:07What?
21:08What note?
21:08Jack Stone, the letter threat.
21:10There's no prints on the paper except for Stone and his missus.
21:12Paper's cheap anyway.
21:13Get it any place, about 400 outlets.
21:15But it is written by the right hand of a left-handed male, 40, medium height and build.
21:20Now, if he was dyslexic...
21:22Yeah, I know.
21:22Narrow the field down.
21:23We're afraid he spells correctly.
21:24Put it through the computer.
21:26Already have.
21:27Left-handed is as crooked as a right.
21:29Who's the one at Manchester?
21:31Ned Turner, the draftsman.
21:32He didn't go on the job, but he did all the planning.
21:34Then he rushed in for his money.
21:36What are we doing out here?
21:37It's a bonus.
21:38Bit of fresh air.
21:41Climatising, me, are you?
21:42For open prison.
21:44It's a bit too soon for that.
21:46Stay on the word in the right direction.
21:49You're some sort of god-botherer?
21:51Well, you could say I'm a concerned person, yeah.
21:54What about?
21:55Jack Stone's wife and kids.
21:58Don't tell me you're collecting.
21:59Someone's threatened to do them in.
22:02What, Chrissie and the kids?
22:03Mm-hmm.
22:04Oh, well, her dad's alive.
22:05Yeah, I know, but believe me, mate, it's on.
22:09What, mother, you?
22:10See, I'm fine.
22:11I think I'll go back in.
22:12Come on, it's nice out of here.
22:14Yeah.
22:15On a clear day, you can see the cathedral.
22:18I know what your game is.
22:20Carrot and stick.
22:21You're the carrot.
22:22Don't want to make the other farm.
22:23Left him back at base.
22:26Look, you've always been marked down as the non-violent type.
22:29You don't want anything to happen to the Stone family, do you?
22:31I could do him a bit of violence.
22:33Q-form's on the right.
22:34What cute?
22:35Oh, come on.
22:37I've rung it on us.
22:38All of us.
22:39Got clean away.
22:40Yeah.
22:42Collie died, you know.
22:44Chris's cousin.
22:45The Hatchard's nephew.
22:46Yeah, car burnt out.
22:47Yeah, and the rest.
22:49All sorts of things got burnt.
22:51Jack got out there.
22:53Never been seen since, has he?
22:55A K-registration mark, yes, L.
22:58A place for a tally.
23:00Observation will bring it in, sir.
23:01No, it's worth a few days' observation.
23:03Anything from Dorff?
23:03Wall of silence.
23:04Thanks, Fred.
23:05He's seen the rest of the gang.
23:07Well, I can't get word out.
23:09Not till it's all over.
23:10Intermunicado.
23:10Solitary?
23:11Something like that.
23:15Sounds a bit rough, doesn't it?
23:17Thanks a lot.
23:18Ah!
23:20Ah!
23:22Ah!
23:24Ah!
23:24Ah!
23:25Ah!
23:26Ah!
23:28Ah!
23:28Ah!
23:28Ah!
23:29Ah!
23:29Ah!
23:29Ah!
23:31Ah!
23:37Ah!
23:38Ah!
23:45Ah!
23:53Ah!
23:56Ah!
23:58Ah!
23:59Ah!
24:08Hey, Chrissie.
24:10What?
24:14Just trying to make a move.
24:17They'll be terrified.
24:19Poor little mice.
24:21No, they won't.
24:23They'll just think of it as an adventure.
24:31If you'd call Doyle again...
24:33No good, no good.
24:35Listen, he can catch up with us any time.
24:39Nobody gives a damn.
24:50Come on, Nick. Finish it up.
24:52There, put that in the back of the car for me.
24:55Just hope we're doing the right thing, that's all.
24:57It's all we can do. These take care of their own.
24:59I'll leave it out, Chrissie.
25:00Come on, love, that's enough.
25:01They'll be good.
25:08They'll come for you.
25:11Yeah, I know.
25:30Come on, get right down. That's it.
25:32Come on, get right down. That's it.
25:35Now, stay down.
25:53Nine feet of base. Urgent!
26:12Listen, you're paid to be awake all the time, not half the time.
26:23I know.
26:29Yeah.
26:31Yeah.
26:33Yeah.
26:37Let's go.
27:04Get up now, Mum.
27:05Not yet, love. Won't be much longer.
27:07I'm so cramped.
27:08You're a good girl. Do what your dad said.
27:28No! Not me! Not me!
27:43I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
27:46You're my favourite.
27:52The kids are safe. Everybody's all right.
27:55It'll be okay.
27:57You're kind of alive.
28:02I don't know where to see the grandparents seem to rate our efforts of protection.
28:06I'll have to see in this one. Clients agree with them.
28:08One of our guys took his eye off the ball, didn't he? I'll give him a rocket, but what can
28:11you do? Up all night, crack of dawn.
28:13Oh, I know. What's the damage?
28:16Shock, mainly.
28:17Chrissy's got a few scratches, but she had a belt on, thank God.
28:22Oh, Cowley's gonna love this one, mate.
28:24We should have turned Jack in in the first place and let the Met look after the family.
28:28Well, we didn't, and I want this man. Bastard.
28:35Hatch?
28:36Someone to see you.
28:38Good morning.
28:39Cowley.
28:40CI5.
28:44Morning.
28:46Got the coffee on?
28:47I can make some.
28:49Do that.
28:56Is this how you put in your time now?
28:58Better than the other way.
29:00Yes, yes, I expect it is.
29:04You seem to be very comfortably placed.
29:06It's all bought and paid for.
29:08Do you want to see the accounts?
29:09No, no, I'm sure they read well.
29:14We've met before.
29:15Have we?
29:16Presentation dinner for Jimmy Dix, 72.
29:20Oh, yes.
29:22I expect there were a lot of people there.
29:24There were.
29:25It was a few months before the corruption trials.
29:29Jimmy did his time.
29:31Stood it very well.
29:33He's in South Africa now.
29:35Security man in the gold mines.
29:38Just a job for him.
29:40I want to talk to you about Maiden Lane.
29:43Maiden Lane or Memory Lane?
29:45You come out with some right ones.
29:47Maiden Lane and your son-in-law.
29:49Had his wife and children.
29:52What have they got to do with it?
29:54Jack had it away.
29:55More luck than brains.
29:57Did he have it away, Hatch?
30:00Half the world's police and Interpol never got near him.
30:03Maybe he did have a little bit of something.
30:06Cunning.
30:07Animal cunning.
30:09Who supports his family?
30:11I do.
30:12Who else?
30:17All right, we're just coming up to it now.
30:19Linda will go in and open the garage door a bit while her mum's paying me off.
30:22Okay, Liz?
30:23Got it.
30:23All set.
30:24Now, Linda, make a thing of getting your bike out.
30:26Your mum's going to tell you you can't go out and put the bike away, okay?
30:30Yes.
30:30Good girl.
30:31Now, Nick, you stick with your mum.
30:33Okay.
30:35Okay.
30:54No, no, no, take him back.
31:15All quiet, man.
31:17All quiet.
31:18Yeah, well, stay with it. The night man blew out.
31:22So I hear.
31:24This is very kind of you, Mrs. Hatch.
31:25No trouble.
31:27I won't join you if my daughter's bringing the children over, so I've got a lot to do.
31:31I don't think they will be coming, Mrs. Hatch.
31:33How's that? What do you mean they won't be coming?
31:36Your daughter met with an accident on her way over here.
31:39Oh, my God.
31:39A accident? You've been quizzing me about some job years ago and my family's been in an accident.
31:43They're all right. Your daughter just got a couple of scratches and the accident and the job are related.
31:47Where are they?
31:48They've been taken care of.
31:49Well, I want to see them.
31:50You will, all in good time.
31:52Now, who hates your son-in-law enough to kill off his wife and kids?
31:55Kill them?
31:56To try, at any rate.
31:57I made a start with the cat and the dog.
32:00The cat was poisoned by a neighbour.
32:02And the dog?
32:04Of course, she never told us about that.
32:05What did she tell you?
32:06Just, she wanted to be on her own for a bit, so she was bringing the kids over to us.
32:12She gets depressed, gets on top of her, Jack being missing and all.
32:17Would she tell you if she heard from Jack?
32:19She'd tell me.
32:21Answer that, will you, Roz?
32:26Jack will never show.
32:28You won't find him.
32:29He must miss his family.
32:30Miss him?
32:32He's probably shacked up with some bint somewhere.
32:34About the only good thing that ever came out of that job was Chrissie being rid of him.
32:37Does she feel that way about it?
32:39Women.
32:40Haven't got much sense, have they?
32:41Mr Cowley.
32:43It's for you.
32:43Oh, thank you.
32:51That's the door there, sir.
32:54Found a car dumped outside the local underground station.
32:57Only half a mile away from the crash.
32:59Where did we get the ident?
33:01A kid, delivering newspapers, saw the crash, told the local cops.
33:04Anything on the license plates?
33:06Yeah, I've stolen last night in Northwest 10.
33:08I didn't even know he was gone.
33:10Some careless people about.
33:12Yeah, right.
33:12Leave it alone like the last one.
33:14Just observation, eh?
33:16Okay, will do.
33:21Well, the family, in happier times.
33:24Yeah.
33:26Well, Jack and your daughter, their wedding, eh?
33:28Yeah.
33:30That's Chrissie, at Nick's christening.
33:33Oh, he's a bonnie wee lad.
33:35Here he is again.
33:36There's a page, Cole's wedding.
33:39Colin and Peggy.
33:40Barely a toddler, then.
33:42Colin.
33:44Collie Roberts, killed when the car burned out, eh?
33:47Yeah.
33:48Poor Cole.
33:50That's Linda, as the little bridesmaid.
33:53Her hair was much fairer, then.
33:55And that's one of Peggy on her own.
33:58She went out of her mind, poor girl.
34:01I wasn't surprised when she did it.
34:05Took an overdose.
34:08Who's that?
34:10Oh, it's Pat Weaver, Peggy's dad.
34:12That's the group.
34:13Father, me, all of them.
34:17Those days are gone.
34:18Got you looking at the family portraits, has she?
34:20Got the family album out at the drop of her head?
34:22And why not?
34:25Pat Weaver.
34:26There's a name from the past.
34:27Too early for a drink for you, Mr. Cowley.
34:30I'm about you for one.
34:30Always late enough.
34:31A small scotch, perhaps.
34:32I'll get some water.
34:33Oh, not for me, Mrs. Hatch.
34:37Colin was your nephew, Hatch.
34:39That's right.
34:40And all sons of your own?
34:42No.
34:43Mrs. Chrissy and her sister in Miami.
34:46Plain, you see.
34:48Oh, thanks.
34:49What happened to Pat Weaver?
34:51Not a lot.
34:52Retired villain, Tommy's hands, like me.
34:55Cheers.
34:57Mr. Cowley, about that accident,
34:59exactly what did happen.
35:15Blank.
35:16Blank.
35:26Looking for a game?
35:27Not now.
35:29Table three, if you want.
35:30Three shortly.
35:31Another time.
35:33Haven't seen you in a long time.
35:35Copper, haven't you?
35:36Was.
35:37Yeah, I thought so.
35:38Good in the faces.
35:41What are you doing now?
35:42I'm making a living.
35:44You haven't crossed sides, have you?
35:46No, not exactly.
35:50I wonder what their game is.
35:55A local hood, is he?
35:57Yeah, a small time.
35:58We can't ask around.
35:59Oh, it's a tight community.
36:01It's tight as a drum.
36:03Blank.
36:04Oh, there's a couple more on Abbott Street.
36:06It's too right.
36:06Last race has started.
36:13The old man checked with the housing authority.
36:15Had a council flat.
36:17Let it go three months ago.
36:19No forwarding address, of course.
36:21That's unusual, parting with a flat.
36:23They're hard to come by.
36:24Yeah.
36:25But a bit of an allotment, too.
36:27Not far from Jack Stone's place.
36:31Hello.
36:33Someone's let that lot go to seed, haven't they?
36:35Yeah, it's a pity.
36:36Used to keep it lovely.
36:37Then he let it go.
36:39Lost interest, I suppose.
36:41Can anyone get one of these?
36:42If you live around here.
36:43Get your name on the list.
36:45What happened to this fella, then?
36:45Oh, I haven't seen him in a long while.
36:48You honest?
36:49Could have turned his toes up.
36:51Well, I'll have to put my name down.
36:56Hey?
36:57Well, okay, I saw him a couple of times
36:59coming out of a high-rise in Camelot Street.
37:01Oh, perhaps she likes the view.
37:05Did you get it?
37:06Yeah.
37:07Staying with an old flame on the 10th floor.
37:0910th.
37:10She's away, too, in the clubs up north.
37:12Lift's working, isn't it?
37:13I hope so.
37:14What, phone engineers?
37:16No, I thought public health department.
37:18A survey on depressive tendencies
37:20of residents of high-rise blokes.
37:22Can you keep that up?
37:23What?
37:23Patter.
37:24Yeah, I read The Guardian, don't I?
37:26Excellent.
37:26You'll do it for me.
37:59Yeah, I read The Guardian.
37:59No.
37:59Oh, bar.
38:05Let's go.
38:05Let's go.
38:31Doyle?
38:32Yeah?
38:32Liv's coming.
38:43All right.
38:44Okay, relax.
38:45Let's go the other way.
38:47Thanks.
39:05Okay.
39:08Good.
39:12Good.
39:15Good.
39:27Good.
39:40Bode, rat poison in a high-rise flat.
39:43Maybe they'll use the lifts.
40:03Come on, Nick. It's way past your bedtime.
40:06Just another five minutes, Mum.
40:08You've already had another five minutes.
40:10Then you'll want another five.
40:13I'd have to concede anyway.
40:14He's seven ahead. I couldn't possibly catch up.
40:17Come on, you can play again tomorrow, OK?
40:19How long are you to stay with us?
40:21Oh, a day or two.
40:22Great. Good night. Good night, Nick.
40:24Good night, Nick.
40:28Have you got a gun in here?
40:31But have you?
40:33Powder, lipstick.
40:35That's what I've got in there.
40:38You gonna take Dad in?
40:40No, not me.
40:42He's not a bad man.
40:45He's your dad, Linda.
40:47But if he's done something wrong, he'll have to stand trial sooner or later.
40:52How long will he have to go for?
40:54Oh, I don't know.
40:56You will be able to see him, though.
40:57He won't have to hide anymore.
40:59I know.
41:00Come on, you two, babe.
41:02Oh, Dad.
41:03Oh, Dad.
41:04Listen, you've been a long day.
41:06I'll give Chrissie a hand in the kitchen.
41:07OK, thanks.
41:09You must be a good girl.
41:10Dad.
41:11What?
41:12I'm so frightened.
41:14There's no need to be.
41:16You'll be all right.
41:25Pearson, put me through to the boss.
41:28Operations.
41:29Major Cowley.
41:31Right.
41:33Cowley.
41:34Yes, dear.
41:35Mr. Hatch insists on talking to you.
41:37Put him on.
41:40Look, Cowley.
41:42This can't go on.
41:43I'm not staying cooped up here with my lot in danger.
41:45But you agreed to cooperate, Hatch.
41:47You didn't give me any option.
41:49Where are they?
41:50I want to talk to my daughter.
41:51I'm afraid that's out of the question.
41:52No, it is not out of the question.
41:55If you've got her in safe custody, there's no reason why I can't talk to her.
41:58She's done nothing wrong.
42:00Their safety is a matter for the authorities.
42:03Your being cooped up, as you say, is for their safety.
42:06I must insist that they remain incommunicado.
42:10You'll be kept informed, as I promise you.
42:12For the moment, I must ask you to keep to our arrangement.
42:15Oh, God, you better be right about this.
42:17If any harm comes to them, you'll know what a bloody vendetta is.
42:21I'll see.
42:21I think you'd better get some sleep, Hatch.
42:23Good night.
42:43Time to go, Tom, then.
42:44Yeah.
42:45See you.
42:46Yeah.
42:53Love you, Jack.
42:54Yeah, you too, Chris.
42:55And then, I've done it all wrong, babe.
42:58No, you haven't.
43:00Go.
43:02Let's get it over with.
43:03See ya.
43:24You man's gone walkabout.
43:26Heading for Luke Street.
43:27Yeah, and about time, too.
43:284-5 out.
43:316-2.
43:33With you, 4-5.
43:36Is he with you?
43:40Someone's coming.
43:48Yeah.
43:49That's him.
43:52Good.
43:52Good.
43:52Stick with him.
43:54Good.
43:54No, no, no.
44:37No, no, no.
45:10Have you got nothing, Rod?
45:20Nothing.
45:22No, no, no.
45:50We're in business.
45:51Great.
46:08Up here, Pat.
46:22Hold it, Weaver.
46:30Stop.
46:35Making for the front.
46:52Hold it, Weaver.
46:55Come on, you don't stand a chance.
47:01Don't make me shoot, Weaver.
47:17That's as far as you go, Weaver.
47:32Yeah, he must have been watching long after the police gave up.
47:35Yeah, I probably saw something on the allotment.
47:37Spent hours on those little patches, you know, when they're retired.
47:41Plenty of time.
47:41His daughter's suicide preying on his mind.
47:44Fine night's work.
47:45You let a wanted man get clean away.
47:47Murph let him get away.
47:48You two were supposed to be running the show.
47:50He went running after Weaver.
47:51Yeah, and Jack Stone just slipped away.
47:53He won't get far away.
47:55Oh, thank you.
47:56Can I tell the commissioner that?
47:57Saved his wife and kids.
47:59Yeah, where's he gonna go?
48:00He's berserk about that family.
48:02I sometimes wonder if you're going soft, Doyle.
48:05In the head.
48:08Yeah, sooner why.
48:09Next time you get a call like that, leave it out, mate, will you?
48:27Why have I seen him before we go?
48:29You'd better ask my colleague.
48:31Help yourself, mate.
48:39I'll give you that one.
48:48There you go, Nick.
48:49You were up early this morning.
48:50How are you?
48:51All right.
48:55Dad!
48:56Come on, babe.
48:58Good morning.
49:00Good morning.
49:00What?
49:01You do not this time of day.
49:17Come on, go on.
49:18You're good, Emma.
49:19Come at it, boy.
49:20Come on, Daddy.
49:20Have some breakfast.
49:21Let's go.
49:51Let's go.
