FunTranscript
00:00You're running an op against the chief of Russian intelligence while he's on holiday, which they would consider highly provocative.
00:07To justify an op like this, Igor would have to be trading top-grade insights with his son.
00:12Who's your agent in there, anyway?
00:14She's Mikhail Waradin's Russian nanny.
00:16200 hours of battery life.
00:21He's got nothing to be suspicious about.
00:28I think that's Kirill Markov. He's a ruthless bastard.
00:38He was a poor bastard in our cabinet with pancreatic cancer.
00:43Igor and Kirill Markov hook you in.
00:45We spend the next 10 years chasing a ghost.
00:49Or it's true, and we've just got wind of it.
00:51Emergency statement from the PM.
00:53Given my condition, I feel I owe it to you all to offer my resignation.
00:57I will remain in place until a new leader is chosen.
01:01If a minister running for leadership has been bribed or blackmailed, we'd be catastrophically exposed.
01:06Before I authorize an investigation into any leading politician, I'll need concrete evidence.
01:11The Mark battery's dead.
01:12Yeah, no.
01:14Sweet dreams, huh?
01:16No, no, no, it's not a story.
01:17The Mark battery's dead.
01:18Oh.
01:37The Mark battery's dead.
02:09What's going on here?
02:12What are you doing?
02:14What are you doing?
02:16Your little Lennoxka was fine on us.
02:19And now she's going to tell me all her secrets.
02:23Go back to your bed.
02:26I'm her boss now.
02:28I'm her boss now.
02:29She said she left!
03:05I'm her boss now.
03:11She said he was bad.
03:12I'm sorry.
03:31You guys are a good one.
03:33You guys fell in love.
03:38Hello!
03:42you wanted to see me
03:47I'm assuming the original intel for this Maltese op came from Cyclops
03:54yes he told me about Igor's annual trips to Valletta
03:57so that information was a plant everything else is too
04:01it wasn't his explanation was entirely credible
04:04so you're sure of the intelligence what about him
04:08it's all in the file I've known him since I was a student in St Petersburg
04:11and 18 years later he shows up in London working undercover
04:15at the Russian embassy a senior Moscow intelligence officer
04:20apparently looking to switch lanes
04:22he was already disillusioned Ukraine was the final straw
04:25you obviously kept in touch
04:26we stayed friends
04:29were you ever lovers?
04:31no
04:32did you want to be?
04:35not relevant
04:35did he?
04:41briefly perhaps
04:42but um I was already engaged to Stuart
04:45so even if we'd wanted to
04:48ah I see
04:51so it's what he might have done but didn't
04:54that makes you so sure of his loyalty
04:57a moment of weakness perhaps
04:59that he chose not to take advantage of
05:04isn't that worthy of trust?
05:07we can all lie to someone we love
05:10not had you done as an incurable romantic
05:14this job rather beats that out of you I'm afraid
05:19you're one of our best agent runners Kate
05:21but a great desk head requires many qualities
05:23certainty isn't one of them
05:25so you're backing Zach
05:27you need to find out if your friend Cyclops
05:30has been playing you inadvertently or not
05:32or you won't just be the youngest head of the Russia desk
05:35you'll be the shortest serving too
05:39will you run to the leadership foreign secretary?
05:42right now my thoughts are just very much with Anthony and Jane
05:44foreign secretary you've got five days until the election
05:47don't be so coy
05:49you need to get a move on really
05:51I think in a situation like this
05:52it's very important to maintain our composure
05:54as a party
05:57what did C have to offer?
05:59strategic ambiguity
06:03his speciality
06:03meaning we have to prove that we were right
06:06or we're fucked
06:07and Echo might be too
06:10I'm going to set up a meeting with Cyclops
06:12tomorrow morning at the London safe house
06:13you need to shut that down
06:16Zach's in the building
06:18yeah of course but it's a shame
06:19we can't show them this
06:22come on
06:23that's Mr. Ryan Walker leaving the NATO conference last night
06:27after the PM's announcement
06:29by the back door
06:31no official car
06:33no PPOs
06:34and no special advisor
06:35Melissa Morris
06:36no nothing
06:37so I talked to our Portuguese friends
06:39did a little triangulation
06:40and this was the drop-off point
06:43little villa in the hills
06:45guess who owns it?
06:48Putin's secret mistress
06:49close
06:51try Dmitry Krimzov's brother-in-law
06:54are you serious?
06:55oh yeah
06:56so Mr. Walker's response
06:58to the resignation of our Prime Minister
07:00is to go AWOL
07:01with the Russian Foreign Minister
07:04are you certain
07:05that Krimzov was at the villa?
07:08well he got there
07:09half an hour before Ryan
07:13now there was another arrival
07:14in a taxi from the Lisbon Royale
07:16I haven't ID'd him yet
07:18but are you ready for the pièce de résistance?
07:21yeah
07:22the man in the murk
07:24is Lev Amatov
07:26our cuddly British oligarch
07:29so Ryan meets the Russian Foreign Minister
07:33off-grid in a
07:34oh yeah
07:35off-grid
07:37in a get-together brokered by
07:39a billionaire
07:41with historic ties to the Kremlin
07:43I wouldn't call that
07:45politically suspect
07:47otherwise known
07:49as murky as fuck
07:54Stuart had a night out with Melissa
07:56at the last party conference
07:57he said she seemed disillusioned
07:59by working with Ryan
08:00I should talk to her
08:01hmm
08:02we need to talk more about this
08:03but not here
08:04sure

08:19or
08:20maybe
08:21Ryan is the one with the arts
08:22on which subject?
08:25why would Imogen
08:26accept a 200 grand donation
08:28from a man like
08:29Lev Amatov?
08:30on paper
08:31you could argue

08:47in Portanovi
08:48two years ago
08:49Stuart went
08:51pretty sure he said
08:52that Lev Amatov was there
08:54well
08:55there's plenty of dirty money
08:57in Montenegro
08:57you know
08:58it's a shame

09:06we're working off the books
09:08he won't
09:08ok
09:09not if we get out
09:10of his eye line
09:11as long as you're working

09:46so
09:47we'll take it
09:48right
09:48here's a spare key
09:49it's my partner

09:53now it's yours
09:55my money
09:56is on Ryan
09:57declaring first
09:58well if Imogen

10:03alright
10:04so
10:05let's start with
10:06the two of them then
10:07and if anyone else
10:08joins the race
10:09I'll go digging
10:10cool
10:10yeah
10:12five days
10:14better get around with it
10:19it's gonna be a long night
10:33he said
10:35he said
10:35he said
10:35he said
10:37he said
10:37he or has to say
10:38he said
10:43he accidentally
10:43he said
10:50he said
10:50No, no! No!
10:52This is a little bitch!
10:54No, no, no, no!
11:23Let's go.
11:54Let's go.
12:20Let's go.
12:50Are you running an open Valetta?
12:54Malta's been put on their alert list last night.
12:57It came through at the embassy.
12:59What's the alert about?
13:00I don't know.
13:03Did you put an agent in the villa?
13:06I need to go through your tip-off about Igor's holidays in Valetta.
13:11Is there any chance it could be a plant?
13:15Is there why we're here?
13:17You think I set you up?
13:21Your bosses do.
13:23The intel from my op was seismic, much bigger than we expected, and the Chief's now worried about blowback.
13:29What did you find out?
13:32Could you have been set up?
13:33Could anyone know we've got ears in the villa?
13:36Not for me.
13:40Kate, you're going to have to trust my judgment on this.
13:45Unless you think I lied to you.
13:46Of course I don't.
13:50Try to find out what you can about the red flag on Walter.
13:53It's important.
13:54Okay.
13:56I'll be in touch in the usual way.
14:12Morning.
14:13When did you last hear from Echo?
14:15Last night.
14:16A message saying she hadn't managed to change the battery and the mic.
14:18It's possible Moscow knows we're watching Igor.
14:21Fuck.
14:22How?
14:23I don't know yet.
14:23But they've just put Malta on the alert list.
14:26There was a big police bust on Gozo last night.
14:28It was on the news.
14:29It could be over that.
14:30What happened?
14:31Some fintech company breaching Russian sanctions.
14:34Enough to get Moscow's back up.
14:36You know how they like to think of this island as theirs.
14:38Maybe.
14:39But first we need to make sure Echo's safe.
14:42How close can you get to the villa?
14:44Not that close.
14:45But there's a view from the top of the cliff.
14:47Go there.
14:48I'll speak to Rose about this Gozo bust thing.
14:50Don't send Echo any more messages until we've had eyes on her.
14:54Yeah.
14:55Okay.
14:57I know even talking about immigration offends your metropolitan sensibility.
15:02I'd appreciate it if you didn't make an assumption like that.
15:05But my point is it's not a left or a right issue.
15:08I'm a passionate believer in our multicultural society.
15:14But it's got to be protected.
15:16Protected from what?
15:17From being swamped by uncontrolled, poorly managed, illegal migrations.
15:21Look, only last week the Home Secretary said we need migrants to do the jobs that other people don't want
15:26to do.
15:27Yeah, well, even so, we've been letting in hundreds of thousands of people a year for more than a decade
15:31without building the homes, the hospitals or anything else we need to accommodate them.
15:35And does that strike you two as sane?
15:38It's going to be hard to keep the economy moving with zero immigration
15:41and a higher rate tax of 70%, which is what you're proposing.
15:46Yeah, on salaries of a quarter of a million pounds.
15:50So, obviously, it'd be a great shame to lose you both.
15:53Sinn Féin this morning are calling for a referendum
15:56on whether Northern Ireland should leave the United Kingdom.
16:00If you become Prime Minister, would you agree to that demand?
16:07Perhaps it's time we ask the English.
16:10They pay for the Union, after all.
16:13The UK, in or out.
16:16Foreign Secretary, is that really how you are launching your campaign?
16:20By playing the dog whistle of English nationalism?
16:26What the hell was all that about?
16:28The right-wing press are going to lose their shit.
16:29Good.
16:30Just shaking things up.
16:31Step away from the middle, maybe catch a wave.
16:33Or you drown, brain.
16:34We've only got four days.
16:36You want to start a campaign with a bang?
16:37Well, this was it.
16:38The bang was supposed to be a tough case on pulling back on immigration,
16:40not throwing petrol on a nationalist bonfire.
16:42An election race, Melissa.
16:44I have to offer change.
16:45Well, our MPs are going to hate it.
16:46Yeah, some will, but the party rank and file will agree with me.
16:48More than they'd want to admit.
16:51I get it.
16:52Of course I do.
16:53But the next time you are going to disappear all night,
16:55if you could just send me a text, that would be great.
16:58Sorry, something came up.
17:00Well, I hope it was worse here.
17:02Absolute chaos here.
17:04I don't know if you saw that lunatic on GMB this morning
17:06talking about a referendum for the English to leave the UK.
17:11It's just a populist playbook.
17:13You can't read it, can you?
17:14Well, who knows?
17:16Melissa's put a rocket up Imogen's arse.
17:18Now he's declared.
17:19I mean, she's still on the fence.
17:21Do you think anyone else will run?
17:23No, not if she stops dragging her bloody heels, no.
17:27Oh, babe, before I forget, you know that conference in Montenegro
17:30when you didn't want to go to?
17:32That was a tourist industry junket thing, isn't it?
17:36Yeah, for hotels.
17:37Yeah, we were pitching for investment.
17:39Why?
17:40Do you remember who set it up?
17:41It's just the foreign office so on my back
17:44about reviewing minister's security abroad.
17:47Like I need the extra bloody admin.
17:49Yes, I do remember who set it up.
17:51It was the master of slime himself, Lev Ametov.
17:54He invited us and sort of random backbenchers.
17:59I mean, me and Josh told Imogen she shouldn't bother,
18:01but she was adamant for some reason.
18:03Did you get the investment?
18:04No.
18:05Of course we didn't.
18:06Anything I got was that food poisoning.
18:07Do you remember the food poisoning I got?
18:09Oh, yeah.
18:10Famous squid.
18:11Famous squid?
18:11Yes, disgusting.
18:13Please.
18:13You've got to go.
18:14Oh, listen, don't forget tonight is Fiona's parent-teacher thing.
18:17We are under strict instructions to not wear anything embarrassing, okay?
18:22As far as she's concerned, that's impossible.
18:24Love you.
18:25All right.
18:26Love you too.
18:31I spoke to GCHQ and Langley.
18:33They haven't heard any chatter coming out of Malta
18:35other than the Gozo bus.
18:37So it probably is the reason Moscow flagged it.
18:41Probably isn't enough.
18:42We'll regroup as soon as Julie's got a closer look at Echo.
18:46What's the news on her brother?
18:47We've moved him to a hostel in St. Petersburg.
18:50As soon as you pull her out, we'll have him on his way to the border.
19:26That's a nice brochure.
19:30Look at the date.
19:33Look at who was there.
19:35It was two weeks before Lev made his first donation to Harry Comrade's charity.
19:40Well, that's not a very subtle quid pro quo, is it?
19:42Exactly.
19:44So why not declare it?
19:45To stop the press from finding out she's got ties to an oligarch.
19:49It's not a very good look for the Home Office.
19:52So, you're going to ask her about it?
19:53I think I'll start with Angela White.
19:58It's Julie.
20:00What's the news?
20:01I can't see her.
20:03I've only got a limited view on the terrace, but Matty is giving Sandra his breakfast.
20:09Stay where you are, and call me the second you see anything different.
20:24I think.
20:25Well, if it is what you're saying, it could be a game changer, couldn't it?
20:29No, I think we should wait.
20:30Timing's not right at the moment.
20:32I'll call you the book.
20:33Okay.
20:33Okay.
20:34Yeah, thanks.
20:34Okay, I'll call you then.
20:38Right.
20:39A video involving a certain female politician has just been brought to my attention.
20:44Okay.
20:44What kind of video?
20:46We'll just have to use our imaginations.
20:48What, a sex video of Imogen Conrad?
20:50It sounds implausible, but I have it on good authority.
20:54Well, how do you know it's going to leak?
20:55I don't.
20:56I've just been tipped off that it might.
20:57By who?
20:58A journalist.
20:59I don't know.
20:59It doesn't matter who, does it?
21:01We just need a strategy in case it does.
21:03Of course, I sincerely hope it doesn't.
21:05It has nothing to do with us, will it, Ryan?
21:15You wanted to see me?
21:17Mrs White, I'm not sure if you remember me.
21:20Of course I do.
21:21You gave no quarter to the committee, which strikes me as a good quality in your line of work.
21:25Let me sign you in.
21:26I think it's better if we take a walk.
21:28Is that okay?
21:31I was at the Montenegro conference because Lev asked me to be, and I made no secret of that.
21:36Save you the trouble, here's a donor to my local party.
21:39It seemed like a reasonable ask.
21:41Did the Home Secretary discuss her goals for the trip?
21:44I barely saw her.
21:45I assumed she was there as a favor to Lev, like me, but she didn't seem to be taking any
21:48of it very seriously.
21:50What do you mean by that?
21:51She wasn't at any of the talks.
21:53She seemed, let's put it this way,
21:55otherwise occupied.
21:58With what?
21:59She spent an awful lot of time horsing around with her egg.
22:03There were two of them, I think.
22:05One of them was laid up with a tummy bug.
22:06It was the other one, John.
22:08Josh.
22:09Josh, you were long?
22:10Good looking chap.
22:11Maybe there was nothing going on.
22:13But I can't say that I've ever entirely trusted her.
22:17Look, you're putting words in my mouth.
22:19I didn't say I was ruling her out, but that doesn't mean that you can rule her in.
22:24Of course she isn't behind Ryan Walker's referendum bollocks.
22:27No, it's X.
22:29Come on.
22:29The only thing that X is a guide to is Elon Musk's artificially inflated testosterone.
22:34See ya.
22:35Can I have that for my manifesto?
22:37We can't hold out for much longer.
22:38We need to get out there ahead of Ryan.
22:40Okay?
22:42I need more coffee.
22:45What do you think I should do, love?
22:47I always said Ryan's smarter than he looks.
22:49It's a wrecking ball.
22:51He hasn't even started on us yet.
22:54Then you need to stop him.
22:58Simon.
22:59Hello.
23:02Is the Foreign Secretary taking mind-altering drugs?
23:04Yes, sadly, he is a full-blown crack addict now.
23:08Simon.
23:15Melissa, it's Kate.
23:17You used to work with my husband Stuart, the Guardian.
23:19We met at the Christmas party.
23:21Oh, you're the civil servant.
23:23Home office, or was it with MOT?
23:25I actually work for SIS.
23:27We're investigating an issue with the Foreign Secretary's security.
23:32What was that?
23:33Yesterday.
23:34We were running a routine off in Lisbon,
23:36and we noticed he left the summit venue without his protection officers.
23:39I wasn't aware.
23:40No?
23:41So there's no cause for concern over his security detail?
23:45Not so far as I know, no.
23:47You went to meet Lev Amatov, is that right?
23:50A reception at a private villa.
23:53Oddly enough, we can't seem to find a record of the event in the official schedule.
23:56Well, Lev's a personal friend of the Foreign Secretary, that's no secret.
23:59What about the fact that Dmitry Krimzov was there too?
24:05That's a massive allegation.
24:09You'll have to speak to the Foreign Secretary about it.
24:11I'm sure he'd be keen to avoid a diplomatic scandal, given the fact he's just announced his leadership bid.
24:18And what do you expect me to do about it?
24:20Talk to me, Melissa.
24:23Does Ryan often go AWOL?
24:24Does he shut you out of things?
24:27He might be running the country soon.
24:30Could Stuart Tide come to me?
24:32Of course not.
24:34This is between us.
24:37I'll go.
24:38If you want to talk more.
24:42In confidence, of course.
24:59Thank you, Hark.
25:16I have eyes on her.
25:17She's playing cards with Sondra and she just sent a text saying she's fine.
25:21It all looks normal.
25:22I told you not to send her any more messages.
25:24I didn't.
25:25Then why is she answering a question you didn't ask?
25:29Can you send me the pictures?
25:31I'll run back now and take a look at them.
25:33On it now.
25:35Bill.
25:36Stuart.
25:37You all right?
25:40Did you tell your wife who you forgot to mention works for SIS?
25:43What we discussed in Manchester in confidence.
25:45No, I may have mentioned something to her about you being unhappy, yeah.
25:48Okay, what happens at conference days at Conference Inn at the Golden Rule, mate?
25:51Nothing that anyone couldn't have guessed, is it?
25:53Huh?
25:53I'm sorry, though.
25:55Really, I am.
25:56So what, did Kate say something to you?
25:59I don't want things to turn dirty, Stuart.
26:02That's not why I got into politics.
26:03Then why are you working with Ryan Walker, then?
26:07Huh?
26:09Does that make sense?
26:11It's called no business being anywhere near Downing Street, and you know that, and I know that you know.
26:16Listen to me.
26:16Listen, there is always room for someone like you in our office.
26:21Because I know that to be true.
26:24I know that Imogen will snap you up.
26:26I know it.
26:29Just think about it.
26:32Just have a think.
26:42Stop, go back one.
26:44You see that on the edge of the frame?
26:47They're playing cards.
26:48Why would they need security?
26:55I just got another text.
26:57She's requesting a meet.
27:00I hope your mom is okay.
27:01It would be good to see her soon.
27:03We can see a security guard in one of your shots.
27:07So?
27:07I think she's been blown.
27:09She's answering questions we didn't ask her.
27:11She's being chaperoned.
27:12And now all of a sudden she wants a meet.
27:18Okay.
27:19What next?
27:21I'll talk to Zach.
27:23But I think I'm going to have to go back.
27:31You think her meet request is a set-up?
27:33I don't know, but something feels off.
27:36And now we know Malta's on the alert list as of last night.
27:39Can you authorise a team to extract her?
27:46It's too risky, Kate.
27:49Best case we'd get you there in two days.
27:51But we need the Foreign Secretary to sign off putting weapons
27:54through the diplomatic ban.
27:56I don't have two days.
27:57I'd have to go unarmed.
28:00I can't advise that.
28:01As your SO.
28:03Eagle Security will be armed to the teeth
28:05and there might be more on the way.
28:08I'm sorry, but the answer's no.
28:12We've got no idea how it's going to go down out there,
28:15which is exactly what Moscow always wants.
28:19We're just going to have to hope you're wrong
28:21and Echo hasn't been blown.
28:36I'm not leaving her there.
28:38You made the right call.
28:39There are too many unknowns.
28:41I made a promise to her.
28:42And Alexei, I know how much your agents matter to you.
28:46It's why you've got this job.
28:47But you have to know when an op goes beyond your control.
28:50I'm not leaving her there, Rose.
28:52Suppose that's right.
28:54You walk into a trap.
28:55I can handle it.
28:57Surely your priority has to be...
28:59Excuse me.
29:02...has to be protecting the Russia desk.
29:04If any of you were compromised out there,
29:07it would take weeks to get a new team up to speed,
29:10by which time Moscow's asset would be in Downing Street.
29:13There's a chance I'll have to take.
29:17You take a break, okay?
29:20Go home.
29:22See your kids.
29:23Shit, Fiona.
29:26Fiona.
29:38There she is.
29:39Told you she'd be here.
29:41Nice of you to show on.
29:42Sorry I'm late, darling.
29:44What have I missed?
29:45That's the same old story.
29:46She's got a fantastic brain when she's focused,
29:49but she is too easily distracted.
29:51Wow.
29:52Okay.
29:53That's Imogen.
29:54She's in.
29:56Okay.
29:56Right, so I'm going to shoot off.
29:58So we have done everything apart from history and politics,
30:01and this is the cue for the A-level choices.
30:02Stu, I'm going to have to work late tonight as well.
30:03Love you, darling.
30:04Bye-bye.
30:08Next.
30:10Mum.
30:11Sorry.
30:12Oh, please.
30:14Hello.
30:16So do I have 8,000 pounds?
30:198,000, thank you.
30:208.50, 9,000, 9,000, 10,000.
30:24So I have 10,000 pounds for this gorgeous Matisse lithograph.
30:29Do I have...
30:3011,000, thank you, sir.
30:3212,000.
30:34Do I have 13,000?
30:3614,000?
30:3715,000.
30:38Shall we round it up, Mr. Amitov?
30:4015,000 for such a great cause.
30:47Sold.
30:4815,000 pounds.
30:49The kind gentleman here.
30:53I'm so sorry, James.
30:54He's been held up.
30:55Can we push it back for 20 minutes, please?
30:59Well, right now, he's the only candidate, so of course he's going to win.
31:01I have sympathy for Imogen Melissa thinks we'll play as an act of toxic masculinity.
31:07Melissa's a millennial Puritan.
31:09Trust me, anyone with ovies will just be bitching about Imogen's figure.
31:12Yeah?
31:12Either way, it'll force her to pull out if she's got an abortion to stand against you.
31:15Yeah, but still, it's a hefty price for her to have to pay.
31:18I don't know how bad this term actually is.
31:19If you want to win, you've got to pay everything in your hand.
31:21Yeah?
31:22Half measures aren't going to get you anyway.
31:23So sorry to interrupt.
31:24I'll have to drag him away for the Times interview.
31:26You can do it in the car.
31:27Oh, okay.
31:28All right, I'll see you later.
31:30I'm after you.
31:43Please tell me the tip-off about the tape didn't happen at the Lisbon party.
31:47No, of course not.
31:48Does it exist?
31:51Was it filmed by the Russians?
31:53Yes, it exists.
31:54I've told you, I've got no idea if filmed the bloody thing or who's in it with them.
31:56Okay, if it's real and there's any hint that you were behind the leak, you know that it would sink
32:01us.
32:01I sink her first, surely?
32:02Not necessarily.
32:03A personal smear like this could make a heroine of her, especially if the Kremlin are behind it.
32:07There's no evidence of that.
32:08Doesn't matter.
32:09The right-wing press will have a field day.
32:11They'll say you're like one of Moscow's fellow travelers, like the old left.
32:15What's Lev Amatov?
32:17At the Lisbon party?
32:19He's Amanda's friend, not mine.
32:20He's also got a Russian passport.
32:22Family ties to Putin.
32:23Yes, he's also a British citizen who earned his money here fair and square.
32:27Do you know, we're happy enough to use his money to prop up public spending.
32:30He just dropped 50 grand in there on student scholarships.
32:34Is there anyone else out there that should know about?
32:37You are making a mountain out of a molehill with this.
32:39Okay, you took a huge risk.
32:41I'm sure people already know that you went off without your PPO.
32:43What people?
32:44There were 50 of you ministers staying at St. Hotel, Ryan.
32:47Look, could we just leave the cross-question to the journalists, please?
32:50I've really got to take this.
32:54John, hi.
32:55Sorry, I'm up to my ears.
32:57Now?
32:58You're landing on something now?
32:59I'm a public figure, in case you haven't noticed.
33:02Jeez.
33:04John, John.
33:05No, no, no, no.
33:06No, no.
33:07Construction was meant to be your expertise.
33:10Offering finance was mine.
33:11Do not get in this car until I tell you.
33:14If my lark goes under now, I am seriously...
33:17Listen to me, John.
33:18If you get fired, you're better to keep your fucking mouth shut.
33:30You can smoke all you like.
33:31You're not spending the weekend at Jay's.
33:33Not after what your teachers said tonight.
33:35Why could I see my boyfriend when I'm not at school?
33:37If you make a mistake, Fiona, you're stupid.
33:41You've known this guy for five minutes.
33:44Have this conversation with Dad, see what he says.
33:46That's not the power of workaholic.
33:49I know I've been away a lot recently.
33:51I think he'll like getting away from us.
33:54It's bad timing, but I have to go away again tomorrow.
33:58Oh, for God's sake.
34:00I'll get the boss home.
34:12I have no idea what you're talking about.
34:15And if it's going to go between a million quid out of my heart like a friend,
34:18we've got another fucking thing coming.
34:20I'm just going to be here.
34:21Robert Peston?
34:23Are you alone?
34:24Yeah, I am.
34:26Oh, well, this is strictly off the record.
34:32Here is Monsieur Laurent Sauvert.
34:35He's a Swiss national.
34:36I was able to track him from Krimsov's Lisbonne Villa back to his hotel.
34:40Who is he?
34:41I have no idea yet, but a man doesn't show up on our radar or anywhere else for that matter.
34:47Well, that tells us something.
34:48Mm-hmm.
34:51So, um, do you have any more thoughts about Malta?
34:56A few.
34:57Yeah.
34:59We deliberately made the approach to the church long,
35:01so even if this meet is a set-up,
35:04the Russians won't want her to deviate from our plan,
35:07which will stretch them.
35:09And that's my chance.
35:11What, you intercept her en route?
35:13I've got some ideas about that, too.
35:16Oh, fuck.
35:16Oh, yeah, I'm going to need a drink.
35:21I think this is still good.
35:25Yeah.
35:26Do you want one?
35:27No, thanks.
35:29Oh, are you going to tell Julie that you're thinking of going rogue?
35:35There's every chance they'll fire me, Rav.
35:37I can't do that to either of you.
35:38Man, forget about the suit.
35:41You can't do this on your own.
35:46You should go and make friends with your bed.
35:49Get some rest and then decide whether you want to throw your entire career away.
35:54If you stop drinking that shit now.
35:57I'll let you know in the morning, yeah?
36:08Our understanding is that with four days to go,
36:11the Home Secretary, Imogen Conrad, will join the leadership contest tonight.
36:16We're expecting her announcement within the next...
36:17Are you ready?
36:18Who's out there?
36:19Everyone.
36:20Hurry.
36:24You've got this, Imogen.
36:29Wish me luck.
36:33Good luck.
36:43It is my great and timely pleasure to announce my campaign to be the next leader of our party
36:50and of our great country.
37:06To join the waiting press corps.
37:08And we need to cut away from that now for some pretty sensational news about the other leadership candidate.
37:15In the last few minutes, our political editor, Robert Peston, has broken a bombshell of a story,
37:21to put it mildly, concerning the foreign secretary, Ryan Walker.
37:25The allegation that Mr. Walker slipped away from his personal protection team at the NATO summit in Lisbon this week
37:32and went to a party with the Russian foreign minister, Dmitry Krymsov, hosted by frequent donor to numerous British political
37:41parties, Lev Amatov.
37:44This is an absolutely extraordinary story.
37:46Our foreign secretary, Ryan Walker, having a private meeting with his Russian...
37:50Okay, we've got an hour to calm the storm or this race is over.
37:53Yeah, I think you should stay quiet.
37:54No, no, no, you shouldn't stay quiet.
37:55They'll crucify you.
37:56Look, we just said it was some freelance diplomacy.
37:58Free Ukraine, that might have worked.
38:00But now...
38:01Well, have you got any better, I guess?
38:02I'm just saying in this current climate, it looks shady as hell.
38:04Yeah, well, maybe I had no choice but to go to that fucking party.
38:06Yeah, well, I hope you hang whoever leaked it.
38:09Oh, don't worry, I'm on it.
38:11Okay, news at ten are asking for you.
38:13If you come clean now, perhaps we can salvage this.
38:15Okay, well, just call Bloody Pest and tell them to get here immediately.
38:18Too late.
38:19We won't make the end of the show.
38:20Well, then tell them to extend it.
38:24Okay.
38:30Well, as we said, we've extended the program tonight
38:33after we were told that Foreign Secretary wanted to give us
38:36some context for our explosive revelations earlier.
38:40And I'm pleased to say Robert is with him right now.
38:43Robert.
38:43Thanks, Tom.
38:44Foreign Secretary, you had a private meeting
38:48at a Lisbon party, of all things,
38:52with the Foreign Minister of Russia, a hostile state.
38:56You were not accompanied by any officials.
38:58There are no notes of the meeting.
39:00There was a clear breach of protocol.
39:02National security has been put at risk.
39:05Your colleagues say to me that you should resign
39:08and give up all ambitions to be leader of their party.
39:11I won't be resigning any time soon, Robert.
39:14Why on earth not?
39:15In the business of diplomacy,
39:16it's sometimes worth taking a risk, even a personal one.
39:20What on earth were you thinking of?
39:22Look, it was a social gathering, right,
39:24hosted by a very well-known British party donor
39:27where Dmitry Krimzoff was again.
39:28Did you expect Krimzoff to be there?
39:31No. I did expect Krimzoff to be there.
39:33So why didn't you take your officials?
39:34Well, it's not a widely publicised fact
39:38that Dmitry Krimzoff lost his only son last year.
39:40And it's fairly well-known that my wife and I...
39:50Sorry.
39:55We lost our only child, also a boy, three years ago.
40:08Sorry.
40:09And I...
40:10I wanted to express my private sympathies to him
40:13in the hope that we might find some common ground,
40:17man to man, if I'm...
40:18If I'm allowed to say that these days.
40:20I imagine I speak for everybody watching that, you know,
40:24obviously, I feel for you enormous compassion
40:29given the tragedy that you suffered.
40:32But what do you think you actually achieved?
40:35How many people do you know would be bold enough
40:37to walk in that door and sit down with Dmitry Krimzoff?
40:39How many people do you know would try to better
40:42that diplomatic relationship between Europe and Russia?
40:45I'd like you to name someone in the Cabinet
40:47that you would have that confidence in.
40:49Thank you, Robert.
40:49Robert Peston there with the Foreign Secretary.
40:52And that was quite some interview.
40:54This leadership race is certainly hotting up.
40:57Let's move on to some of the day's other news now.
41:00And having promised repeatedly...
41:15Kate.
41:19Sorry to have summoned you so late, Mrs. Henderson.
41:22I've been on national television fighting for my political life.
41:25I saw.
41:26I'm sorry.
41:27So you won't mind if I ask you a few simple questions?
41:32Of course.
41:33Did you know about my meeting with Dmitry Krimzoff?
41:36Yes.
41:37How?
41:38Some basic detective work.
41:42I'm the Foreign Focking Secretary, your boss.
41:45I don't need any covert surveillance.
41:47I understand Kate had concerns about your personal security.
41:54Did you leave my meeting to the press?
41:56No.
41:57You sure about that?
41:58Absolutely.
41:59Do you think I don't know who your husband works for?
42:02If you have a problem with my husband,
42:04I suggest you take it up with him, Foreign Secretary,
42:06or Imogen herself.
42:09But you'll admit, you don't like my politics, do you?
42:12I'm a civil servant.
42:13Your politics are none of my business.
42:17Is there anything else you'd like to tell us, Kate?
42:22No.
42:24Unless Mr. Walker would.
42:26Do you think I would take the trouble to come here
42:28if I'd done anything underhand?
42:31It's not my job to say, sir.
42:33My job is to help keep you safe.
42:36If we fail to do that here at SIS,
42:38then I'm sure I speak for everyone
42:40when I say it is deeply regrettable.
42:45Well, if you've no more questions, Foreign Secretary.
42:52Take this as an official warning.
42:57Do not meddle with the democratic process.
43:19Hiya.
43:21Hi.
43:21Did you see it?
43:22What a fucking night.
43:24Front row seat.
43:26I mean, Meg's already asked for his resignation.
43:27He's cooked.
43:28He's done.
43:29Well, I think it's going to take more than this to kill him off.
43:31I mean, maybe,
43:31but it now means that Imogen is officially in the fucking race.
43:37Can I ask you something?
43:39Yeah?
43:40Do you think Imogen's ever been unfaithful?
43:43Well, to Harry?
43:46I mean, no, not that I know of why.
43:50Forget it.
43:53Katie, if you've heard something about that,
43:55I could really do with knowing,
43:56you know, especially given she's now declared.
43:57No, forget about it.
43:59I just wanted your opinion.
44:00All right.
44:02You're OK?
44:03You had a rough night?
44:05I've had better.
44:08Anything you can talk about, or...?
44:13I was accused of passing intel
44:15about the Crimsoff meeting to you.
44:18To me?
44:21Well, who's accused you?
44:22Zach?
44:23Man of the moment.
44:25Ryan Walker.
44:26I mean, honestly,
44:27do they think we'd be that fucking stupid?
44:29Apparently so.
44:34Did you know that?
44:37About Ryan meeting Crimsoff?
44:39I mean, is that what that trip was about?
44:40I can't talk about it.
44:41No, you can't talk about it,
44:42but given the fact that you are investigating...
44:43We're not.
44:44And that's it, Stuart.
44:45I can't talk about it.
44:46All right.
44:48Sorry.
44:53Well...
44:55Bloody hell.
44:57Well, we better win, then.
44:58Eh?
44:59I'm a civil servant.
45:00I can't comment.
45:01Yes.
45:01Your neutrality is noted as ever.
45:04I'm not joking, Stuart.
45:05I'm not joking.
45:07I'm not joking.
45:11I'm sorry, but I have to go away again tomorrow.
45:15I'll be gone before you're up, though.
45:17Okay.
45:18What?
45:19Oh.
45:21What?
45:21Is it something serious?
45:23Or...
45:23It's a potentially hostile environment.
45:41Oh, my God.
45:43Oh, my God.
45:44Oh, my God.
45:46Oh, my God.
45:47Oh, my God.
45:47Oh, my God.
45:49Oh, my God.
45:49Oh, my God.
45:50Oh, my God.
45:50Oh, my God.
45:50Oh, my God.
