00:00:23They're ready now.
00:00:46Perhaps we could begin with your earliest recollections of the events of last May.
00:00:54Well, I first got involved on the 15th.
00:00:58Could you move the microphone a little closer?
00:01:05Kira?
00:01:10I first got involved on the 15th.

00:18:07...
00:18:07...
00:18:08to tell her steady enough to call her.
00:18:10What?
00:18:12Toxicology are looking at the cake.
00:18:14Okay.
00:18:17Meantime, let's drop in on the person that sent it.
00:18:20Got the name this morning.
00:18:31You don't need to patronise me.
00:18:34We're doing what you want. Following another lead.
00:18:37That you think is a waste of time.
00:18:39Picking along dead ends just to prove they're dead ends,
00:18:43that's most of the job.
00:18:45I'm not saying it's a waste of time.
00:18:47Just, you haven't had a chance to get bored of reality yet.
00:18:57Okay, that was patronising.
00:19:02Is this who sent the cake?
00:19:04Uh-huh.
00:19:05We checked her social feeds.
00:19:07I don't know.
00:19:08I don't know.
00:19:20I don't know.
00:19:32I don't know.
00:19:35I don't know.
00:19:37It's the girl powers.
00:19:38She posted that Monday morning.
00:19:45The bakery said that they're not meant to do obscenities.
00:19:50So I said it was for my sister, like, just rejecting.
00:19:54And they agreed, so...
00:19:57Not cheap, they're cakes.
00:19:59With delivery, it was, what, 80 quid?
00:20:02Um, well, I didn't pay for it all myself.
00:20:06We all put a pound in each.
00:20:08We?
00:20:08Yeah, I'm on a mums and carers message board.
00:20:11I held a sort of whip round.
00:20:13You crowdsourced the money? Yeah, if you like.
00:20:16From 80 other people.
00:20:18Look, I'm not...
00:20:21I'm not being funny, okay? I know she is dead.
00:20:26But did you read what she had written?
00:20:28Like, how much do you think she got paid
00:20:29for spouting that horrible shit?
00:20:32I don't know.
00:20:35I was just using my freedom of speech.
00:20:37To send a threatening message.
00:20:41Look...
00:20:42It was funny, okay?
00:20:44And I can see if I'd done it myself,
00:20:46then that would be a bit weird, but I'm not mental.
00:20:54You wish she was dead.
00:20:57Well, er...
00:20:58No, no, no, I didn't.
00:21:02Yeah.
00:21:03Death to jaw powers.
00:21:05That's just...
00:21:06It's a, er...
00:21:08A hashtag game, you know?
00:21:10Like, death to, you insert the name of someone
00:21:12who's been an arsehole.
00:21:13It's not...
00:21:14Real.
00:21:15It's a joke thing.
00:21:17And who started it?
00:21:18The hashtag?
00:21:19Er...
00:21:19I don't know.
00:21:20I don't know.
00:21:20I saw it somewhere.
00:21:24Excuse us a moment.
00:21:34Toxicology say the cake for clean.
00:21:36They also said, thanks, it was delicious.
00:21:42We'll give her a caution.
00:21:44Offensive Communications Act.
00:21:46Does that cover cakes?
00:21:48As far as she's concerned, it does.
00:21:59What about the others who chipped in?
00:22:01Are you gonna tell them off too?
00:22:04I didn't do anything.
00:22:06Start a thread about it.
00:22:20Hospital's discharging the husband tomorrow.
00:22:22We'll bring him in for questioning.
00:22:26Blue.
00:22:28We're arresting the husband.
00:22:30Don't wallow in that.
00:22:32The internet will be pissed off with someone else today.
00:22:34Tusk.
00:22:37Everyone's pissed off with Tusk because of that thing with the kid.
00:22:44He's catching a shitstorm on social media.
00:22:47Liza will be organising the cake now.
00:22:49See ya.
00:22:50See you tomorrow.
00:22:51See ya.
00:23:13Where my ladies at?
00:23:16Oh shit.
00:23:16Oh shit.
00:23:18Yo.
00:23:19Choked that man.
00:23:20Yeah.
00:23:20Good show brother.
00:23:21I'm feeling my shit.
00:23:22Oh baby.
00:23:23Some of that.
00:23:23But you smoking?
00:23:24Good shit boy.
00:23:26Aight.
00:23:28Damn.
00:23:31Eyes on.
00:23:31Eyes on.
00:23:32Eyes on.
00:23:33No stress.
00:23:34It's legal here.
00:23:36Keep forgetting.
00:23:38Welcome to Europe I guess.
00:23:40Kinda takes the joy out of it.
00:23:42Tell me about it.
00:23:44Careful.
00:23:44You break it, you pay for it.
00:23:47You always do some cool shit.
00:23:50Tell me.
00:23:51Get out of this.
00:23:53Aight.

00:25:50Commencing.
00:25:53Commencing.
00:25:58Commencing.
00:26:00Commencing.
00:26:01Commencing.
00:26:04Commencing.
00:26:06I don't know.
00:26:43Did you say what it is?
00:26:44Nope.
00:26:57Good morning.
00:26:57Good morning.
00:27:07She's in here.
00:27:11So, I go in, and there's not just a wound from the glass.
00:27:14There's a hole dug in, a borehole, like a tiny tunnel.
00:27:19So I follow it.
00:27:20You know, how deep does it go?
00:27:21It goes all the way from her ear canal to deep in her brain.
00:27:25Well, I find this nestled right in there.
00:27:31Looks quite cosy.
00:27:33It's one of those bee things.
00:27:35An ADI.
00:27:37An autonomous drone insect from the granular project.
00:27:41How did it get in there?
00:27:43I'd say it borrowed in.
00:27:45Fuck me.
00:27:47That's not the worst part.
00:27:48It's crawled right through her dorsal posterior insula,
00:27:52which is basically the brain's pain centre.
00:27:55You're talking agony off the scale.
00:27:58You'd do anything to make it stop.
00:28:01Even cut your own throat.
00:28:20DCI Park.
00:28:22Can you see any person like this?
00:28:52So fucking fancy looking at you.
00:28:54These companies, billions on branding.
00:28:56Well, they can afford it.
00:28:58The whole ADI project's pretty much bankrolled by the government.
00:29:00That's why so many people are paranoid about it.
00:29:03Let me guess.
00:29:04This is some people on the internet.
00:29:07They reckon the government uses the bees to spot on us.
00:29:10There's a schizophrenic world view.
00:29:26Oh, Jesus.
00:29:28I didn't expect to find myself living in the future,
00:29:31but here I fucking well am.
00:29:35Karen Park?
00:29:36Uh-huh.
00:29:37Vanessa Doll.
00:29:40Please, follow me.
00:29:52You're after information on our Project Swarm ADIs.
00:29:56That's right.
00:29:58Any particular reason?
00:30:00Yes.
00:30:22Rasmus.
00:30:26Rasmus Shawberg. He had Swarm.
00:30:29Nice to meet you.
00:30:30Hi.
00:30:31Hi.
00:30:32Nice green house?
00:30:35Yeah.
00:30:39So, your bees, your ADIs, talk me through them.
00:30:42Colony collapse disorder.
00:30:44We still don't know what's behind it.
00:30:46Bees themselves were virtually extinct,
00:30:49so what our ADIs do is effectively stand in for them.
00:30:54They're solar powered, they don't need nectar,
00:30:56but they pollinate flowers the same way.
00:30:58They crawl inside, pollen sticks to their legs
00:31:01and gets brushed off next flower they visit.
00:31:04Can they make honey?
00:31:04Yeah, no.
00:31:06I was joking.
00:31:10How do they know where the flowers even are?
00:31:13I mean...
00:31:14Well, they have a sensor.
00:31:16Like a camera?
00:31:19No, just a basic visual sensor.
00:31:21You see, they need rudimentary pattern recognition
00:31:24in order to locate compatible thora and navigate.
00:31:26They navigate?
00:31:28Yes.
00:31:28You don't, I don't know, steer them.
00:31:33They're autonomous.
00:31:34That's right, isn't it?
00:31:35They make their own decisions.
00:31:36They look after themselves.
00:31:37Yes.
00:31:38You see, the ADIs cover the whole of the UK.
00:31:40We couldn't command each one individually, ourselves.
00:31:43It's just not logistically possible.
00:31:45No.
00:31:46We simply set the behavior and lead them to it.
00:31:48They even construct these hives themselves.
00:31:51They reproduce.
00:31:53They reproduce?
00:31:55Yeah.
00:31:55Each hive is a replication point.
00:31:57It's like a 3D printer, basically.
00:31:59Exactly.
00:32:00They create duplicates of themselves
00:32:02and create more hives and spread out exponentially.
00:32:05Cover the country.
00:32:06Maybe you should work here.
00:32:08Yeah, well, I read up on it.
00:32:11It's impressive.
00:32:12It is.
00:32:13It's just a shame it's necessary.
00:32:16The alternative would have been environmental catastrophe.
00:32:19Bees were dying out.
00:32:22So, what is it that brings you here?
00:32:26We think one of your ADIs may be involved in an unexplained death.
00:32:31Sorry?
00:32:32A death?
00:32:33I have.
00:32:38I have.
00:32:41I have.
00:33:03Yeah.
00:33:04Yeah, it's one of ours.
00:33:06But look, these are not designed to...
00:33:09Kill people?
00:33:10I'd hope not.
00:33:11Could it have malfunctioned somehow?
00:33:14No.
00:33:15I mean, when they do malfunction, it happens, but then they just break, they just hit the
00:33:21ground.
00:33:22Great.
00:33:23What if someone hacked one, and then they found a way of controlling it?
00:33:26That's impossible.
00:33:27You see, it's got military-grade encryption, and you would need a diagnostic controller
00:33:32which is also encrypted, so I would say the likelihood is...
00:33:35I don't know what he's saying, but it's not the same as impossible.
00:33:46This is every hive we have online.
00:33:51Let's see these are the hives in the building here.
00:33:58How many bees per hive?
00:34:00Around 4,000.
00:34:02It's like air traffic control.
00:34:04Yeah.
00:34:05Is that the search input?
00:34:07Yeah, but...
00:34:08Sorry.
00:34:08You need...
00:34:12Your power's postcode.
00:34:15Is that who this is about?
00:34:17You said you get some malfunctions.
00:34:19A fair few, yes.
00:34:20They smack into a car or something.
00:34:22We even had people trap them, you know, put them in the microwave for a YouTube video.
00:34:26And this logs any that drop off a system?
00:34:28It logs everything, yes.
00:34:30Did you lose any round here on Monday evening?
00:34:32Well, I can check.
00:34:36Just one went out at 1903 hours.
00:34:40Here, I can replay.
00:34:43There.
00:34:46That's odd.
00:34:48What's odd?
00:34:50When they pass between hives, they switch from one jurisdiction to another.
00:34:54It's, you know, like a...
00:34:56It's like a phone between cell mass.
00:34:58Exactly.
00:34:59It tried to do that, but there was nothing to switch to.
00:35:03Unless someone spoofed a hive, and then they've used that to commandeer your ADI.
00:35:07No, you would need a diagnostic controller to do that.
00:35:11What's the range on one of those?
00:35:1310, 20 metres, perhaps.
00:35:16So whoever was controlling it would have to be no more than 20 metres away?
00:35:19Outside the house?
00:35:20Yeah, or sitting in a car, even.
00:35:23Can you trace back you did this?
00:35:24Yes, I'm already trying to do that.
00:35:26But, er...
00:35:29You know what?
00:35:30Er...
00:35:31It would be easier without an audience.
00:35:38OK.
00:35:39You two swap numbers, keep a line of communication.
00:35:42Can you shut the whole thing down, if need be?
00:35:46Hypothetically speaking...
00:35:47Even a short stoppage would damage the ecosystem.
00:35:49And it would need approval from the Department of the Environment.
00:35:53We'll need a list of any granular staff that had access to that system.
00:35:57Past or present.
00:35:57Some of those were government employees.
00:36:00Use a different font for those, if it helps.
00:36:05Bye.
00:36:35Nick, that's a set of granular personnel records to route out anyone interesting.
00:36:39Maybe not just one. Could be a group involved.
00:36:40Yeah, listen...
00:36:41Technically, we should refer this up to the NCA, but there's no fucking way they're taking this off.
00:36:44The NCA already knows about it.
00:36:48What?
00:36:50What?
00:36:51ECR, Karen Park?
00:36:55Yes.
00:36:55Sean Lee, nice old crime agency.
00:36:58How come you're here?
00:37:00There's been more than one.
00:37:17This is Tusk last night.
00:37:19Shit.
00:37:20They thought it was a fit, took him to the hospital.
00:37:22He had to be anesthetized to stop him mutilating himself.
00:37:26X-rays seemed to indicate some kind of plaque or tumor in his brain, so they popped him in the
00:37:31MRI.
00:37:32Ah.
00:37:32Yeah.
00:37:34Basically, one big magnet, tore it right out of his head, through the eye socket, battered the ADI too.
00:37:45Yours is more intact, so I'm gonna need it for analysis.
00:37:48It's evidence.
00:37:50Choose a pattern, knocks any malfunction theory in the head, and they're similar victims.
00:37:55Similar?
00:37:56Both in the middle of online shitstorms.
00:37:59Well, if you want to kill someone, there's a million easy ways to do it.
00:38:02Kill this off, and you've done it from across the street.
00:38:05No fingerprints, no DNA.
00:38:08It's like wishing them dead.
00:38:20Fuck.
00:38:34Guys?
00:38:36Come here.
00:38:48Okay, so, um, Joe Powers and Tusk, both were being kicked around the internet for hours, but, in both their
00:38:55cases, people were also tweeting their photos accompanied with
00:38:58this hashtag death too.
00:39:01Like her friend, the teacher?
00:39:02Right.
00:39:03She didn't know when she'd first heard of it, but trace it back, and it looks like the first real
00:39:08use of the hashtag was last weekend.
00:39:10By who?
00:39:12Uh...
00:39:13Looks like, um...
00:39:15Looks like identical tweets from a set of duplicate bot accounts.
00:39:20This is...
00:39:21Um...
00:39:22It...
00:39:22Automated.
00:39:24It's...
00:39:24It's like spam.
00:39:25This is someone trying to seed the tag.
00:39:27You know?
00:39:28You get it out there.
00:39:29It's like bait.
00:39:30This is someone wanting people to pick up on it.
00:39:33Check out the sender's avatar photos.
00:39:38Bees.
00:39:38Shit.
00:39:40Okay.
00:39:42There's more.
00:39:44So, each tweet had a sort of instruction video attached to it.
00:39:48Uh-huh.
00:39:49There.
00:39:50Game of consequences.
00:39:52It's like an unpopularity contest.
00:39:54Pick someone you don't like, and if enough other people choose the same name, then...
00:39:58Then that's who gets targeted.
00:40:01Here.
00:40:02Watch.
00:40:03Game of consequences.
00:40:06One, pick a target.
00:40:08Oh my god.
00:40:09Two, post their name and photo with hashtag Death2.
00:40:15Three, most popular target will be eliminated after 5pm each day.
00:40:21Four, game resets at midnight.
00:40:25Fuck.
00:40:28Someone's holding a public ballot bumping off the top person.
00:40:33Jesus!
00:40:34He's just mad.
00:40:36Yeah, and it's growing.
00:40:40Day one, 63 people used the hashtag on Joe Powers, okay?
00:40:45On day two, 223 used it on Tusk.
00:40:49Who's using it now?
00:40:51There's...
00:40:51I mean, there's loads more people.
00:40:54There's quite a few votes for the Chancellor.
00:40:56Yeah.
00:40:57Um, but at number one is 880 people using it on someone called Clara Meads.
00:41:05Who is she?
00:41:06Clara Meads.
00:41:08Okay, um, it looks like she was at a demo and she took a selfie in front of a war
00:41:13memorial, pretending to piss on it.
00:41:17Nice work, Clara.
00:41:18Yeah.
00:41:19It's getting near the end of the vault and her mentions are blowing up.
00:41:22Tusk isn't public knowledge yet.
00:41:24Uh, no.
00:41:25So people can't know the hashtag works.
00:41:27They're using it to scare her.
00:41:29Yeah, but they're gonna get her killed.
00:41:31Then we need to get to her before 5.
00:41:33Yeah.
00:41:33Pull in her citizens' details.
00:41:37You're on a spot to have access to that.
00:41:38Yeah, I know.
00:41:39Just getting her location.
00:41:43Yeah.
00:41:43Let's go.
00:41:44Let's go.
00:42:19Hello?
00:42:21What?
00:42:24Yeah, she is.
00:42:26Alright, alright, hold on.
00:42:29Clara!
00:42:32Police. For you.
00:42:35How did they get my number?
00:42:38Hello? Clara Meads?
00:42:40This is DCI Karen Park, Met Police.
00:42:42Sorry to track you down like this, but we think you may be in danger.
00:42:45Sorry, is this a joke?
00:42:46Because all this stuff I'm getting, it's not funny.
00:42:48I'm not joking.
00:42:49Stay where you are until we get there.
00:42:51And keep your windows closed.
00:42:54I'm setting up a perimeter.
00:42:57Call Rasmus. We need him across this.
00:43:06Rasmus? Hi, hello.
00:43:08I'm sending you a postcard and my GPS.
00:43:10I need you to monitor the area.
00:43:11Track my location and see if you get anything unusual.
00:43:14Any rogue ADIs, yeah?
00:43:16Yeah, great.
00:43:17Good. Look, if they come back, I think I can catch them.
00:43:21I have basically set a trap.
00:43:23So if they, if they try it again, we've got them.
00:43:39Are you Batman?
00:43:41I only just rolled them out.
00:43:43This will turn every red light between here and there to green.
00:43:45Fuck me.
00:43:46If this is the NCE, I'll officially apply for a transfer.
00:43:49Let's go.
00:44:01We can take care here.
00:44:02It's a safe house for terrorist informers, usually.
00:44:05There we go.
00:44:21To the NCE, we have five.
00:44:22I've got to carry the team.
00:44:24To the NCE, we have a defense shot in the U.S.
00:44:31We have a defense shot in the U.S.
00:44:41What's that someone's trying to break in
00:45:00Rasmus I just picked up an attempted breach okay granular you've got a breach
00:45:12Where? 800 meters from your location that's outside our cordon if someone's trying to pilot it this way they're going
00:45:18to turn around the moment they see all these uniforms

00:47:42They housed a witness here for a while, Sean said.
00:47:45Must have had kids.
00:47:48Have you got kids?
00:47:49No.
00:47:51No plans.
00:48:04Up the stairs.
00:48:19Rasmus.
00:48:20Still nothing.
00:48:22I can't trace it.
00:48:41Well, this is an en suite.
00:48:47Is there nothing?
00:48:48No.
00:48:48Whoever it is, they mask their path well.
00:48:53But that's not...
00:48:57What?
00:48:59What?
00:49:00We just lost the whole hive.
00:49:01What does that mean?
00:49:03Packed full of ADIs. Lost them all too.
00:49:06Look.
00:49:07Rasmus.
00:49:07There's thousands of them.
00:49:09Where?
00:49:10It's close to your location.
00:49:12Rasmus, say that again.
00:49:13Blue.
00:49:14Blue.
00:49:14It's close.
00:49:15It's very close to your...
00:49:18Text it.
00:49:18Text it to me.
00:49:19Rasmus.
00:49:20Text it to...
00:49:21Shit.
00:49:23Do I get to redecorate?
00:49:34Hello.
00:49:36Hello.
00:49:47No.
00:49:48No.
00:49:50They've got the whole thing.
00:49:53We're not in control anymore.
00:49:55They've got the whole thing.
00:49:57What are you doing?
00:49:59Fix it.
00:50:01Can't you fix it?
00:50:02Shut up.
00:50:02I'm...
00:50:06No.
00:50:08Never mind.
00:50:10No.
00:50:11Never mind.
00:50:12It's too cold.
00:50:15No.
00:50:17No.
00:50:18No.
00:50:20No.
00:50:21No.
00:50:28No!
00:50:29No!
00:50:30No!
00:50:31No!
00:50:45We need to go.
00:50:46Now.
00:50:47Now.
00:50:47Come on.
00:50:54Go, go, go, go.
00:51:03What's happening?
00:51:24Aaron?
00:51:32What the fuck?
00:51:39In there.
00:51:40Go.
00:51:47Help me block the gas.
00:51:48Don't tell me what's going on.
00:51:49You're scared to see.
00:51:50Help me.
00:52:04I'm sorry.
00:52:09I'm sorry.
00:52:14I'm sorry.
00:52:16I'm sorry.
00:52:17I'm sorry.
00:52:19I'm sorry.
00:52:20I'm sorry.
00:52:21I'm sorry.
00:52:22I'm sorry.
00:52:24I'm sorry.
00:52:27I'm sorry.
00:52:28I'm sorry.
00:52:30I'm sorry.
00:52:31I'm sorry.
00:52:31I'm sorry.
00:52:35Oh, come on.
00:53:02Oh, come on.
00:53:07Defense! Defense!
00:53:12Oh!
00:53:19You're in a weapon!
00:53:20Help me!
00:53:23Oh!
00:53:26Oh!
00:53:28Oh!
00:53:28Oh!
00:53:31Oh!
00:53:33Oh!
00:53:41Ah!
00:53:45Oh, my God.
00:54:34Take your time.
00:54:44I'd seen so many bodies before, at crime scenes and autopsies.
00:54:55But I'd never seen anyone die.
00:55:00And she was right there.
00:55:04And can you describe the reaction of your colleague, Mrs. Colson?
00:55:12Lou took it hard.
00:55:17Go.
00:55:20Uh-huh.
00:55:23I'll shut it down before then.
00:55:44We thought this was one guy, some Mr. Mystery in the vicinity, hijacking one ADI and personally controlling it.
00:55:51But there were thousands of them.
00:55:53So it can't be that, right?
00:55:55No.
00:55:55One person can't fly hundreds at once.
00:55:57No, whoever this is, they're controlling the whole system.
00:56:00Do you know where they're controlling it from?
00:56:01No, could be anywhere.
00:56:02Well, you need to fucking sort this out!
00:56:09What?
00:56:12How do the ADIs know who to target?
00:56:16Could have found Clara the same way you did, the identity database.
00:56:19No, that just gives you the basic area.
00:56:21We were in the room too, and they only went for her.
00:56:26Facial recognition.
00:56:28It's got to be facial recognition.
00:56:29Which means the feed from their visual sensors, that's being accessed to.
00:56:33That's not possible.
00:56:34It's the only explanation.
00:56:35Now look, the visual feed is secure between each ADI and the Hive.
00:56:39There you go.
00:56:39Although, one of the government's conditions for backing the project was that we had to consent to...
00:56:47government security services access to the visual feed at times of, quote,
00:56:51increased national security.
00:56:54Which is, as I understand it, pretty much all the time.
00:56:58I wasn't happy about it.
00:56:59Your lot went along with it.
00:57:00Well, that implies a greater range of options than your lot presented.
00:57:05So they are spying on us.
00:57:07This is all classified.
00:57:08So, what did you do?
00:57:10Did you put in a back door and route it through GCHQ?
00:57:13I mean, you do CCTV, you do traffic cams.
00:57:16So, why don't you have your fucking noses in?
00:57:18Look, millions of those things flying around, propping up the ecosystem.
00:57:22Wow, that's just great.
00:57:23Save the planet, hallelujah.
00:57:25Government's not going to pump billions into it just because some lab coat says so,
00:57:28it grabs 200 green votes.
00:57:31They saw an opportunity to get more, they took it.
00:57:35Total nationwide surveillance.
00:57:36We've tracked suspects for weeks in ways they couldn't dream of.
00:57:39We've prevented bombings, mass shootings.
00:57:41By spying on the public.
00:57:42And keeping them safe, which is what they want.
00:57:45Clara May doesn't say I've thought, is she, Sean?
00:57:48Knowing what you knew, that might have helped us.
00:57:50But no, you kept your little fucking secret, didn't you?
00:57:53OK, OK.
00:57:54The government's a cunt.
00:57:55We knew that already.
00:57:57Word's going to get out about Clara.
00:58:00The public's going to wake up and find this mental assassination game going on,
00:58:04and soon we're going to have another body.
00:58:08So what do we do?
00:58:10I don't know.
00:58:11We're totally locked out.
00:58:13Totally blind.
00:58:15If I can work out how they got in, I might be able to reverse engineer some means of getting
00:58:20control back.
00:58:21Do the ODIs have a command log on board cash?
00:58:24Yeah, but that's encrypted.
00:58:25Well, I'll need the key to that.
00:58:37Went through the employee folds.
00:58:39Found some POIs.
00:58:40Bring them in.
00:58:43You sitting in on these granular interviews?
00:58:46I've got to be somewhere.
00:59:01It's 7.15.
00:59:03Three deaths have now been linked to a hashtag circulating on social media.
00:59:07Controversial journalist, Joe Pound.
00:59:09Good morning.
00:59:09Have you posted the hashtag?
00:59:11Is it real or an urban myth?
00:59:13Well, thousands have been taking part, but how culpable are they?
00:59:17People are dying.
00:59:19And we want to hear your thoughts.
00:59:20Line 7, the app.
00:59:21This is not a virtual computer game.
00:59:22This is real.
00:59:23This is happening.
00:59:24I'm good.
00:59:25What?
00:59:26This is not the hashtag that we're killing them.
00:59:29That's just a game.
00:59:31Like, if you're an arsehole, you deserve to be shamed.
00:59:34Steve, Line 5.
00:59:35Yeah, but my point is, someone's going to be top of the list, yeah?
00:59:38So why not make it someone, you know, like, who deserves it?
00:59:41Like a racist...
00:59:42Right now at the House, like, I've seen celebrities, politicians, everyone.
00:59:45Yeah, but there's something you have to sit there encouraging people to say part.
00:59:48The point is, this is already happening, and people know that they can jump on board
00:59:51because nobody will ever know if they did or didn't.
00:59:53Well, let's just pause for a moment and go back to that top five.
00:59:57As we have been saying, the Chancellor is at number one, and I want us to think about that.
01:00:01What does that tell us about the choice of the nation?
01:00:04Well, I can't say I'm surprised that he's number one on the list.
01:00:08He's been pretty unpopular for quite a long time now.
01:00:10But where does that warrant, his place, and his lips?
01:00:13Look what, they...
01:00:14They don't have to think too hard, perhaps, they don't have to think too hard.
01:00:15I'm sure they don't have to think too hard.
01:00:17I'm sure they don't have to think too hard.
01:00:17They don't have to think too hard.
01:00:19It's probably not ready for the whole thing.
01:00:21They're always going to be doing the whole thing.
01:00:23Well, it's been a little bit too hard.
01:00:36Thanks for your time.
01:00:45No good.
01:00:47No good.
01:01:14Well, that's all fascinating, Sean.
01:01:17But when do we shut it down?
01:01:18Tom.
01:01:19Forgive me for being skeptical about your agency's basic competence.
01:01:22Tom.
01:01:23I'm on the fucking chopping block here.
01:01:25Number one on the list.
01:01:26The people's fucking choice.
01:01:28Farrington's number four and he's a pedophile.
01:01:30Suspected pedophile.
01:01:31He did it.
01:01:32You know he did.
01:01:36Let's just shut it down.
01:01:37All social media.
01:01:39The whole bloody internet.
01:01:40Pull the plug.
01:01:41Just for today.
01:01:42At least until Thumbelina here pulls his finger out and he actually catches someone.
01:01:46I wouldn't advise shutting things down.
01:01:48But it's possible.
01:01:48We can do that.
01:01:49The whole of social media?
01:01:50Yeah, pull a North Korea on it.
01:01:52Well, yes.
01:01:53Technically.
01:01:54Right, so push the off switch.
01:01:55It's not a good idea.
01:01:56No?
01:01:57Not in my opinion.
01:01:58Oh, right.
01:01:59Okay.
01:01:59It's just that speaking as a marked man, I beg to fucking differ.
01:02:04If we shut it down, you'll still be number one.
01:02:06Guaranteed to be, in fact.
01:02:07That's right.
01:02:08If we let it run on, at least there's a few hours.
01:02:11Anything could happen before five o'clock.
01:02:13The vote might change.
01:02:14Yeah, and it might not.
01:02:16What about that report, the archive job?
01:02:18From 1985.
01:02:19That memo about Farrington.
01:02:21That was over an unrelated matter.
01:02:22Leak it.
01:02:24Tom, that would be a smear.
01:02:25A head to toe shit smear.
01:02:27I fucking hope so.
01:02:28He's in his eighties.
01:02:28He's had his life.
01:02:29Fuck him under the bus.
01:02:30If I could suggest an alternative.
01:02:33We move you to a safe location.
01:02:35Have you secure before five.
01:02:37Worked out well for you last night.
01:02:40I'll show you.
01:02:53This next one's Tess Wallander.
01:02:55She was a junior, so not much in the way of technical skills.
01:02:58Quit granular for personal reasons.
01:03:00Nervous exhaustion, yeah.
01:03:02Worked in human resources for granular until she quit.
01:03:04She took a photo of a guy in a tube.
01:03:07Said he'd harassed her.
01:03:08He lewd comments or something.
01:03:09But it turned out he had a learning disability,
01:03:11so she caught a ton of shit on...
01:03:13On social media.
01:03:22Hello.
01:03:23I'm DCI Karen Park.
01:03:25Hi.
01:03:34It was like having a whole weather system turn against me.
01:03:41It was just hate message after hate message around the clock,
01:03:45all piling on.
01:03:48It's hard to describe what that does to your head.
01:03:52And suddenly there's a million invisible people
01:03:55all talking about how they despise you.
01:04:00It's like a mental illness.
01:04:09Fuck.
01:04:21Shit.
01:04:23I mean, hands up, I made a mistake.
01:04:26But the way people enjoyed kicking me, that...
01:04:29That's what got to me.
01:04:32The casual fun they had.
01:04:36And, um...
01:04:39I just felt I couldn't go on.
01:04:46Who phoned you?
01:04:48Um, Garrett.
01:04:52My flatmate, he found me in the bath
01:04:54five minutes after I slashed him.
01:04:58I mean, it's crazy.
01:05:01I'm half conscious.
01:05:03He's dragging me out of the bath,
01:05:05and I'm telling him to get out, saying I'm naked.
01:05:10He tied towels around my wrists.
01:05:12Kept me conscious.
01:05:14Kept stroking my hair till the ambulance arrived.
01:05:18Talking to me.
01:05:22Sort of weird.
01:05:24I think he always had a thing for me.
01:05:27And we worked at the same place.
01:05:29So, you know.
01:05:30Awkward.
01:05:31He worked it granular?
01:05:32Yeah.
01:05:33On the ADI thing.
01:05:35He was a real wunderkind.
01:05:37Ultra smart.
01:05:38What did you say his name was?
01:05:40Garrett.
01:05:42Garrett Scholes.
01:05:49Garrett Scholes.
01:05:50We need the whereabouts of a Garrett.
01:05:52Scholes?
01:05:52We were about to tell you.
01:05:54It was buried in the onboard memory of the job.
01:05:56How was it, ADI?
01:05:56What was?
01:05:57A manifesto.
01:05:58A 98-page manifesto.
01:06:02And check this out.
01:06:03There's fucking selfies in it.
01:06:28Okay.
01:06:32Hold back.
01:06:34And you're going to go.
01:06:37We're all set here.
01:06:39Detonate.
01:06:48So, plan is we move you to an underground bunker,
01:06:52knock out every hive within a ten-mile radius.
01:06:55What, just leave me there? How long for?
01:06:57It's a temporary mission.
01:07:00How long till you take out all the hives?
01:07:01Well, it's 20,000, 30,000 of them, then it'd take two years.
01:07:05Two years? Victim a day?
01:07:08So, more to the point, the environmental impact would...
01:07:10Oh, fuck that!
01:07:12Shit!
01:07:14What? Fuck!
01:07:16Move it! Move it!
01:07:19Get back!
01:07:22Shit!
01:07:23Shit!
01:07:26Go, go, go!
01:07:28Get away!
01:07:29No!
01:07:31No!
01:07:32No!
01:07:34No!
01:07:35No!
01:07:43What's your plan B?
01:07:48No!
01:07:49No!
01:08:04No!
01:08:06No!
01:08:06No!
01:08:07No!
01:08:07No!
01:08:09No!
01:08:11No!
01:08:12No!
01:08:13No!
01:08:14No!
01:08:17He was on the original employee roster. We'll be discounted him.
01:08:21He left the country six months ago. We thought we were looking for someone nearby.
01:08:24Run a full case on him. Everything we can find.
01:08:27Lunatic with production values. That's the worst kind.
01:08:31Thanks to the technological revolution, we have the power to rage and accuse about bile without consequence.
01:08:38Only by being forced to recognise the power technology grants us to acknowledge individual responsibility,
01:08:45is it all like this?
01:08:47He likens the population to insects. Says we revel in cruelty that it's a weakness that should be bred out
01:08:53of us.
01:08:54Recurrent theme is he wants people to face the consequences of what they say and do.
01:08:58He wants to force that on them.
01:09:00The whole thing's a moral lesson.
01:09:05He wanted us to find this and spread it about. Well, fuck him.
01:09:28Fuck.
01:09:30Let's go.
01:10:00Let's go.
01:10:13Karen. Karen, he's messed up.
01:10:20He's put this document together himself, right?
01:10:23His author's name's in the metadata,
01:10:26but he's stripped out everything else,
01:10:27so we don't know when he's written it, for example.
01:10:30Most of the photos are clip art off the internet,
01:10:33except this one, the selfie.
01:10:35That's where he's screwed up.
01:10:37He's taken it with his phone,
01:10:38and the phone has left a geotag on the image.
01:10:40So you know where he took this?
01:10:42No, precisely where.
01:10:44He's here, and granular HQ is there.
01:10:47No.
01:10:48No.
01:11:00No.
01:11:02No.
01:11:04No.
01:11:11No.
01:11:28Police!
01:11:30Police!
01:11:30Police!
01:11:31Police!
01:11:32Police!
01:11:33Police!
01:11:34Police!
01:11:35Police!
01:11:36Police!
01:11:44Oh, my God.
01:11:50Oh, my God.
01:11:51Hey!
01:11:52Ah!
01:12:16Oh, my God.
01:12:37Oh, my God.
01:12:49Lifestyles of the rich and famous.
01:12:58There, the forge.
01:13:08Nice one.
01:13:10Half the drafts are sifted in forensics, had scorch marks on them.
01:13:25What do you think?
01:13:27Yeah.
01:13:28Looks like it's toolkit.
01:13:30You can use it?
01:13:31Pretty much the key to the door.
01:13:33So you can get control bags and the deactivation?
01:13:36Well, I've got his source code.
01:13:39They should be able to balance him out.
01:13:41Be quick.
01:13:42Key to the door.
01:13:44Our guy doesn't seem to type to leave keys lying around.
01:13:48Well, I'm in.
01:13:50Okay.
01:13:51Deactivate her.
01:13:52Yeah, I need to repair permissions.
01:13:55Fucking hell.
01:14:01That's weird.
01:14:03What's weird?
01:14:04Time's ticking.
01:14:05That file wasn't there before.
01:14:07This file?
01:14:08Yeah.
01:14:14What is it?
01:14:20Blue.
01:14:21I think they're IMEI numbers.
01:14:24What does that mean?
01:14:26Every phone, every device has a unique number, an IMEI number.
01:14:31It tethers it to a unique user.
01:14:33Yeah.
01:14:34But I can check.
01:14:36Just reverse look up.
01:14:36Come on.
01:14:37Take it easy.
01:14:39Who are these people?
01:14:41I don't know.
01:14:41There's 387,000 of them.
01:14:44Are these IDs your respects have been collecting?
01:14:47No.
01:14:47Are you ready yet?
01:14:48Yeah.
01:14:49Almost there.
01:14:50Wait, wait.
01:14:51What was the name of that teacher, um, Hatecake?
01:14:54Uh, Liza.
01:14:55Liza Bahar.
01:14:56Liza Bahar.
01:14:59For fuck's sake.
01:15:05This is a list of everyone who's used the hashtag.
01:15:08What?
01:15:09Everyone who took part in the game of consequences.
01:15:11They've hoovered up their ID from GCHQ by the looks of it.
01:15:15That back door worked both ways, it seems.
01:15:19See a film on this.
01:15:20What?
01:15:21I posted the tag earlier with Skoll's face.
01:15:25Just trying to get a reaction from him.
01:15:27Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:15:28Almost there.
01:15:29Yeah, you're there.
01:15:31Almost there.
01:15:35Why has he collected everyone who took part?
01:15:37I mean...
01:15:40Okay.
01:15:40I'm ready.
01:15:43Shit.
01:15:44Okay, run it now.
01:15:45No.
01:15:46Think.
01:15:47He left us the trail.
01:15:48Oh, come on.
01:15:49Shut up.
01:15:49That photo with the whereabouts is too big a mistake for him.
01:15:52He knew we'd do this.
01:15:53Yeah, and now we're shutting it down, all right?
01:15:55And maybe that'll trigger some endgame, something to do with that list.
01:16:02What if those are his real targets?
01:16:05The people on the list.
01:16:07Everyone who took part.
01:16:11Consequences.
01:16:12The hate figures with the bait.
01:16:14The players are the target.
01:16:19Run the day I can.
01:16:20Wait, wait, just wait a minute, okay?
01:16:22Run it.
01:16:23No!
01:16:23No, what?
01:16:27Oh, shit.
01:16:37Yeah.
01:16:41Yeah, it worked.
01:16:43Fuck.
01:16:44Sorry, but that needed to.
01:16:54No, no, no, no, no.
01:16:56Fuck.
01:16:58Fuck.
01:17:01Fuck.
01:17:02Fuck.
01:17:06Shit.
01:17:07Fuck.
01:17:08Fuck.
01:17:16Fuck.
01:17:19Fuck.
01:17:22Fuck!
01:17:31Fuck.lyn.
01:17:34Wang.
01:17:36Lol.
01:17:37I'll show you the way
01:17:45Out of this blue
01:17:52Out of this blue
01:18:03Fall into me
01:18:10And drown inside me
01:18:17I know you will see
01:18:24The beauty of me
01:18:31The beauty of me
01:18:49The beauty of me
01:18:50The beauty of me
01:18:51The beauty of me
01:19:00The beauty of me
01:19:01Em, the beauty of me
01:19:20I don't know.
01:19:53I don't know.
01:20:26I don't know.
01:21:05I don't know.
01:21:12I don't know.
01:21:43We're all tragically familiar with the rest of the events of that week.
01:21:50And we need no reminding of the sheer scale, the loss of life, that followed.
01:21:59No.
01:22:01No, we don't.
01:22:08No, we don't know.
01:22:08No, we don't know.
01:22:08No.
01:22:31No, we don't know.
01:22:44And what became of Miss Coulson?
01:22:49I think she blamed herself.
01:22:53Well, I know she did.
01:22:57She felt she'd followed his breadcrumb trail
01:23:00and sprung the whole thing.
01:23:08She left the force.
01:23:11I didn't hear from her.
01:23:14Rang her, tried emailing, but no response.
01:23:23Then, um...
01:23:28About four months later,
01:23:31they found her things
01:23:32on a beach
01:23:36with a note.
01:23:54She kills herself.
01:23:59That's the base theory.
01:24:01Yes.
01:24:08Miss Park,
01:24:11I would like to commend you
01:24:13for sharing your testimony
01:24:15and your time.
