00:00:09The great artisans say, the more the teapot is used, the more beautiful it becomes.
00:00:18The pot is seasoned by repeatedly pouring tea over the surface.
00:00:24The deposit left on the clay creates this beautiful patina over time.
00:00:31Some pots, the clay has been burnished by tea made over 400 years ago.
00:00:49400 years old. You're letting you use the tomato to make yourself a brew.
00:00:53Some things aren't supposed to sit behind glass. They're made to be touched, to be handled.
00:01:02These pots need attention. The clay is cracking.
00:01:06Well, I can't see how a tiny splash of tea is going to help.
00:01:09Sometimes you have to look hard at something to see its value.
00:01:16See? This one shines a little brighter.
00:01:20I don't suppose, I mean, I don't suppose that you want to have a drink.
00:01:25Not tea, obviously. In a pub with me tonight.
00:01:32You wouldn't like me all that much.
00:01:35Couldn't I maybe decide that for myself?
00:01:41I can't.
00:01:43I'm sorry.
00:01:44I'm sorry.
00:01:45Please stop asking.
00:01:47Please stop asking.
00:01:48Please stop asking.
00:01:50Please stop saying.
00:01:51Please stop asking.
00:02:04Please stop asking.
00:02:07I'm sorry.
00:02:07All right.
00:02:10Please stop.
00:02:11Is that security?
00:02:15Please stop asking.
00:02:18I need help.
00:02:18It can't be in my house.
00:02:28Hello?
00:03:02Can the Teal Supervisor please go to your room?
00:03:06Unexpected item in bagging area, please try again.
00:03:17Item not scanned, please try again.
00:03:19I think you can give your voice down.
00:03:31Card not authorised, please use an alternative method of payment.
00:03:34Card not authorised, please use an alternative method of payment.
00:03:39Keep that.
00:04:01You took your time.
00:04:02Yeah, I didn't get the shopping.
00:04:03What? Why not?
00:04:04Because I had a row in the shop with a chip and pin machine.
00:04:08You had a row with a machine?
00:04:09Sort of.
00:04:10It sat there and I shouted abuse.
00:04:11Have you got cash?
00:04:12Take my card.
00:04:16You could always go yourself.
00:04:18You've been sitting there all morning.
00:04:19You've not even moved since I left.
00:04:22What happened about that case you were offered, the Jarrier Diamond?
00:04:26Not interested.
00:04:29I sent them a message.
00:04:43Don't worry about me.
00:04:45I can manage.
00:04:54Is that my computer?
00:04:55Of course.
00:04:56What?
00:04:57Mine was in the bedroom.
00:04:58What?
00:04:58You couldn't be bothered to get up?
00:05:01It's password protected.
00:05:02In the manner of speaking, it took me less than a minute to guess yours.
00:05:04Not exactly Fort Knox.
00:05:05Right, thank you.
00:05:14Oh.
00:05:20Need to get a job?
00:05:21Mm, doll.
00:05:26Listen, um...
00:05:30If you'd be able to lend me some...
00:05:35Is Sherlock, you listening?
00:05:37I need to go to the bank.
00:06:01It's when you said we were going to the bank.
00:06:07It's when you said we were going to the bank.
00:06:21Sherlock Holmes.
00:06:25Sherlock Holmes.
00:06:26Sebastian.
00:06:27How are you, buddy?
00:06:28How long has it been?
00:06:28Eight years since I almost clapped eyes on you?
00:06:30This is my friend, John Watson.
00:06:33Friend?
00:06:33Colleen.
00:06:35Right.
00:06:38Grab a pew.
00:06:39Do you need anything?
00:06:40Coffee?
00:06:40Water?
00:06:41No.
00:06:41We're all sorted here, thanks.
00:06:45So, you're doing well.
00:06:46You've been abroad a lot.
00:06:48Well, some.
00:06:49Flying all the way around the world twice in a month.
00:06:53Right.
00:06:54You're doing that thing.
00:06:55We were at uni together.
00:06:57This guy here had a trick he used to do.
00:06:59It's not a trick.
00:07:00He could look at you and tell your whole life story.
00:07:02Yes, I've seen him do it.
00:07:03Put the wind up everybody.
00:07:05We hated him.
00:07:06We'd come down to breakfast in the formal hall and this freak would know you'd been shagging
00:07:09the previous night.
00:07:09I simply observed.
00:07:10Go on, enlighten me.
00:07:12Two trips a month, flying all the way around the world.
00:07:14You're quite right.
00:07:15How could you tell?
00:07:16Are you going to tell me there was a stain on my tie from some special kind of ketchup
00:07:19you can only buy in Manhattan?
00:07:21No, I...
00:07:21If it was the mud on my shoes.
00:07:24I was just chatting with your secretary outside.
00:07:27She told me.
00:07:33I'm glad you could make it over.
00:07:35We've had a break in.
00:07:36Sir William's office.
00:07:38Bank's former chairman.
00:07:39It's been left here like a sort of memorial.
00:07:41Someone broke in late last night.
00:07:44What are they still?
00:07:45Nothing.
00:07:46Just left a little message.
00:08:0460 seconds apart.
00:08:12So, someone came up here in the middle of the night, splashed paint around and left
00:08:16within a minute.
00:08:17How many ways into that office?
00:08:18Well, that's where this gets really interesting.
00:08:21Every door that opens in this bank, it gets locked right here.
00:08:24Every walk-in cupboard, every toilet.
00:08:26That door didn't open last night.
00:08:28There's a hole in our security.
00:08:30Find it and we'll pay you.
00:08:32Five figures.
00:08:33This is an advance.
00:08:35Tell me how you got in.
00:08:36There's a bigger one on its way.
00:08:38I don't need an incentive, Sebastian.
00:08:43He's, uh...
00:08:44He's killing you, obviously.
00:08:46Shall I look after that for him?
00:08:47Thanks.
00:09:19Have a nice life.
00:09:27Mir不到.
00:09:33Hello.
00:09:34Hello?
00:11:16We just come to work at all hours.
00:11:17Some trade with Hong Kong in the middle of the night.
00:11:18That message was intended for somebody who came in at midnight.
00:11:22Not many Ban Coons in the phone book.
00:11:25Taxi!
00:11:44So what do we do now?
00:11:46Sit here and wait for them to come back?
00:11:48Just moved in.
00:11:49What?
00:11:50Floor above, new label.
00:11:51Could have just replaced it.
00:11:55Nobody ever does that.
00:11:56Hello?
00:11:58Hi.
00:11:58Um, I live in the flat just below you.
00:12:00I don't think we've met.
00:12:02No, well, I've just moved in.
00:12:05Actually, I've just locked my keys in my flat.
00:12:09You want me to buzz you in?
00:12:10Yeah.
00:12:11And can I use your balcony?
00:12:12What?
00:12:15What?
00:12:29I don't know.
00:12:31I don't know.
00:12:33It's not about it.
00:12:34It's about this current.
00:12:36No, no, no.
00:12:39Let's move ahead.
00:12:39You're here.
00:12:50Sherlock!
00:12:53Sherlock, you okay?
00:12:59Yeah, any time you feel like letting me in.
00:13:16Do you think he'd lost the lot of money?
00:13:17I mean, suicide is pretty common among city boys.
00:13:19We don't know that it was suicide.
00:13:21Come on.
00:13:22The door was locked from the inside, you had to climb down the balcony.
00:13:25Been away three days, judging by the laundry.
00:13:30Look at the case, there was something tightly packed inside it.
00:13:32Thanks, I'll take your word for it.
00:13:34Problem?
00:13:36Yeah, I'm not desperate to root around some bloke's dirty underwear.
00:13:39Those symbols at the bank, the graffiti, why were they put there?
00:13:41Some sort of code?
00:13:42Obviously.
00:13:43Why were they painted?
00:13:44More to communicate, why not use email?
00:13:46Well, maybe he wasn't answering.
00:13:47Oh, could you follow?
00:13:48Nope.
00:13:50What kind of a message would everyone try to avoid?
00:13:54What about this morning?
00:13:55Those letters you were looking at?
00:13:57Bills.
00:14:01Yes.
00:14:02He was being threatened.
00:14:04Not by the gas board.
00:14:05Please see if you can get prints off this glass.
00:14:08Ah, Sergeant, we haven't met.
00:14:10Yeah, I know who you are.
00:14:11And I'd prefer it if you didn't tamper with any of the evidence.
00:14:18I phoned Estrada.
00:14:19Is he on his way?
00:14:20He's busy.
00:14:20I'm in charge.
00:14:21And it's not Sergeant.
00:14:22It's Detective Inspector.
00:14:24Dimock.
00:14:28We're obviously looking at a suicide.
00:14:31That does seem the only explanation of all the facts.
00:14:33Wrong.
00:14:33It's one possible explanation of some of the facts.
00:14:36You've got a solution that you like,
00:14:37but you're choosing to ignore anything you see that doesn't comply with it.
00:14:39Like?
00:14:40The wound's on the right side of his head.
00:14:41And?
00:14:41Bancoom is left-handed.
00:14:43It requires quite a bit of contortion.
00:14:45Left-handed?
00:14:46I'm amazed you didn't notice.
00:14:47All you have to do is look around this flat.
00:14:48Coffee table on the left-hand side.
00:14:49Coffee mug handle pointing to the left.
00:14:51Power sockets.
00:14:51Habitually use the ones on the left.
00:14:53Pen and paper on the left-hand side of the phone
00:14:54because he picked it up with his right
00:14:55and took down messages with his left.
00:14:57You want me to go on?
00:14:57No, I think you've covered it.
00:14:58I might as well.
00:14:58I'm almost at the bottom of the list.
00:14:59There's a knife on the breadboard
00:15:00with butter on the right side of the blade.
00:15:02Because he used it with his left,
00:15:03it's highly unlikely that a left-handed man
00:15:04would shoot himself in the right side of his head.
00:15:06Conclusion.
00:15:07Someone broke in here and murdered him.
00:15:08Only explanation of all of the facts.
00:15:10But the gun...
00:15:10He was waiting for the killer.
00:15:12He'd been threatened.
00:15:14What?
00:15:15Today at the bank.
00:15:15Sort of a warning.
00:15:17He fired a shot when his attacker came in.
00:15:19And the bullet?
00:15:20Went through the open window.
00:15:21Oh, come on.
00:15:23What are the chances of that?
00:15:25I want you to get the ballistics report.
00:15:27The bullet in his brain wasn't found from his gun,
00:15:28I guarantee it.
00:15:30But if his door was locked from the inside,
00:15:32how did the killer get in?
00:15:33Good.
00:15:34You're finally asking the right questions.
00:15:42He's left trying to sort of cut his hair with a fork.
00:15:45Which of God could never be done.
00:15:46It was a threat.
00:15:47That's what the Grafisi meant.
00:15:49I'm kind of at a meeting.
00:15:50Can you make an appointment with my secretary?
00:15:52I don't think this can wait.
00:15:54Sorry, Sebastian.
00:15:55One of your traders,
00:15:56someone who works in your office,
00:15:57was killed.
00:15:59What?
00:16:00Van Coon.
00:16:00The police are at his flat.
00:16:02Killed?
00:16:02Sorry to interfere with everyone's digestion.
00:16:04Still want to make an appointment?
00:16:05With maybe nine o'clock at Scotland Yard suit?
00:16:12Arrow, Oxford.
00:16:14Very bright guy.
00:16:17Worked in Asia for a while, sir.
00:16:19You gave him the Hong Kong accounts.
00:16:23Lost five million a single morning.
00:16:24Made it all back a week later.
00:16:27Nervous of steel lady, huh?
00:16:28You'd want to kill him.
00:16:29We all make enemies.
00:16:30You don't all end up with a bullet through your temple.
00:16:32Not usually.
00:16:34Excuse me.
00:16:37It's my chairman.
00:16:39Police have been on to him.
00:16:41Apparently they're telling him it was a suicide.
00:16:43Well, they've got it wrong, Sebastian.
00:16:44He was murdered.
00:16:46Well, I'm afraid they don't see it like that.
00:16:49Sir.
00:16:49And neither does my boss.
00:16:51I hired you to do a job.
00:16:52Don't get sidetracked.
00:16:56I thought bankers were all supposed to be heartless bastards.
00:17:05They've all been on to him.
00:17:11Then they've all been on to him.
00:17:11That's all.
00:17:14That's all.
00:17:15No, no.
00:17:16No.
00:17:17No.
00:17:19No.
00:17:20No.
00:17:20No.
00:17:21No.
00:17:43I need you to get over to Crispian's.
00:17:46Two Ming vases up for auction.
00:17:48Cheng Hua.
00:17:49Will you appraise them?
00:17:50Uh, Sue Lin should go.
00:17:53She's the expert.
00:17:53Sue Lin has resigned her job.
00:17:55I need you.
00:17:56I need you.
00:18:56Well, we've got two away on holiday this week and one's just left to have a baby.
00:19:02Might be a bit mundane for you.
00:19:04No, mundane is good sometimes.
00:19:08Mundane works.
00:19:10It says here you're a soldier.
00:19:12And a doctor.
00:19:15Anything else you can do?
00:19:17I learned the clarinet at school.
00:19:20Oh, I look forward to it.
00:19:30I said, could you pass me a pen?
00:19:34What when?
00:19:34About an hour ago.
00:19:37Didn't notice I'd gone out then.
00:19:40I went to see if I had a job at that surgery.
00:19:43How was it?
00:19:44Great.
00:19:44She's great.
00:19:46Who?
00:19:47The job.
00:19:48She.
00:19:50It.
00:19:53Yeah, have a look.
00:20:00The intruder who can walk through walls.
00:20:02Happened last night.
00:20:04Joan is shot dead in his flat.
00:20:05Doors locked.
00:20:06Windows bolted from the inside.
00:20:07Exactly the same as Van Coon.
00:20:10God.
00:20:11You think he's killed another one?
00:20:20Brian Lucas.
00:20:22Freelance journalist.
00:20:24Murdered in his flat.
00:20:26Doors locked from the inside.
00:20:28You've got to admit it's similar.
00:20:30Both men killed by someone who can walk through solid walls.
00:20:33Inspector, do you seriously believe that Eddie Van Coon was just another city suicide?
00:20:39You have seen the ballistics report, I suppose.
00:20:42And the shot that killed him, was it fired from his own gun?
00:20:45No.
00:20:45No.
00:20:45So, this investigation might move a bit quicker if you were to take my word as gospel.
00:20:51I've just handed you a murder inquiry.
00:20:54Five minutes in his flat.
00:21:22Four floors up.
00:21:24That's why they think they're safe.
00:21:27Put a chain across the door, bolted shut, think they're impregnable.
00:21:32They don't reckon for one second that there's another way in.
00:21:36I don't understand.
00:21:37Dealing with a killer who can climb.
00:21:40What are you doing?
00:21:41He clings to the walls like an insect.
00:21:44That's how he got it.
00:21:45What?
00:21:46Climbed up the side of the walls, ran along the roof, dropped him through this skylight.
00:21:50You're not serious.
00:21:51Like Spider-Man.
00:21:53He scaled six floors of a Docklands apartment building, jumped the balcony to kill Van Coon.
00:21:56Oh, hold on.
00:21:58And of course that's how he got into the bank.
00:21:59He ran along the window ledge and onto the terrace.
00:22:03We'll have to find out what connects these two men.
00:22:31A date stamped on the book is the same day that he died.
00:22:46The killer goes to the bank, leaves a threatening cipher for Van Coon.
00:22:57Van Coon panics, returns to his apartment, locks himself in.
00:23:00Hours later, he dies.
00:23:02The killer finds Lucas at the library.
00:23:04He writes the cipher on the shelf where he knows it'll be seen.
00:23:08Lucas goes home.
00:23:09Later that night, he dies too.
00:23:13Why did they die, Sherlock?
00:23:15Only the cipher can tell us.
00:23:23The world's run on codes and ciphers, John.
00:23:26From the million-pound security system at the bank to the PIN machine you took exception to, cryptography inhabits our
00:23:30every waking moment.
00:23:31Yes, okay, but...
00:23:32But it's all computer-generated electronic codes, electronic ciphering methods.
00:23:36This is different.
00:23:38It's an ancient device.
00:23:40Modern code-breaking methods won't unravel it.
00:23:42Where are we headed?
00:23:43I need to ask some advice.
00:23:44What?
00:23:45Sorry?
00:23:47You heard me perfectly.
00:23:48I'm not saying it again.
00:23:49You need advice?
00:23:50On painting, yes.
00:23:51I need to talk to an expert.
00:24:00Part of my new exhibition.
00:24:03Interesting.
00:24:04Call it...
00:24:05urban bloodlust frenzy.
00:24:08Catchy.
00:24:10I've got two minutes before a community support officer comes around that corner.
00:24:15Can we do this while I'm working?
00:24:21Know the author?
00:24:23Recognize the paint?
00:24:25It's like Michigan.
00:24:26Hardcore propellant.
00:24:28Say zinc.
00:24:29What about the symbols?
00:24:30Do you recognize them?
00:24:32I'm not sure it's the proper language.
00:24:34Two men have been murdered, Raz.
00:24:36Deciphering this is the key to finding out who killed them.
00:24:38Well, this is all you've got to go on?
00:24:41It's hardly much now, is it?
00:24:42Are you going to help us or not?
00:24:44I'll ask around.
00:24:45Somebody must know something about it.
00:24:47Oi!
00:24:51What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:24:52This gallery is a listed public building.
00:24:53No, no, wait, wait.
00:24:54It's not me who painted that.
00:24:55I was just holding this for...
00:25:02A bit of an enthusiast, are we?
00:25:08She was right in the middle of an important piece of restoration.
00:25:10Why would she suddenly resign?
00:25:12Family problems, she said so in her letter.
00:25:14But she doesn't have a family.
00:25:15She came to this country on her own.
00:25:17Andy.
00:25:18Look, those teapots, those ceramics, they've become her obsession.
00:25:21She's been working on restoring them for weeks.
00:25:23I can't believe that she would just abandon them.
00:25:27Perhaps she was getting a bit of unwanted attention.
00:25:41You've been a while.
00:25:44Yeah, well, you know how it is.
00:25:46Custody sergeants don't really like to be hurried, do they?
00:25:49Just formalities.
00:25:51Fingerprints, chart sheet, and I've got to be in magistrate's court on Tuesday.
00:25:54What?
00:25:54Me, Sherlock, in court on Tuesday.
00:25:57They're giving me an ASBO.
00:25:58Good, fine.
00:26:00You want to tell your little pal he's welcome to go and own up any time?
00:26:03It's simple.
00:26:03I still can't place it.
00:26:05No, I need you to go to the police station, ask about the journalists.
00:26:08His personal effects will have been impounded.
00:26:10Get a hold of his diary or something that will tell us his movements.
00:26:13We'll see Van Koon's PA.
00:26:15If you retrace their steps, somewhere they'll coincide.
00:26:25Scotland Yarn.
00:26:36Flew back from Dalian Friday.
00:26:38Looks like he had back-to-back meetings with the sales team.
00:26:41Can you bring me up a copy?
00:26:42Sure.
00:26:43What about the day he died?
00:26:44Can you tell me where he was?
00:26:45Sorry, but there's a gap.
00:26:48I have all his receipts.
00:26:50Your friend.
00:26:51Listen, whatever you say, I've burdened you 100%.
00:26:54He's an arrogant sod.
00:26:56Well, that was mild.
00:26:58People say a lot worse than that.
00:27:01This is what you wanted, isn't it?
00:27:02The journalist's diary?
00:27:09What kind of a boss was he, Amanda?
00:27:11Appreciative?
00:27:12No.
00:27:13That's not a word I'd use.
00:27:15The only things Eddie appreciated had a big price tag.
00:27:19Like that hand cream.
00:27:20He bought that for you, didn't he?
00:27:27Look at this one.
00:27:29I've got a taxi from home on the day he died.
00:27:3018 pounds 50.
00:27:31That would get him to the office.
00:27:33Not rush out.
00:27:33Check the time.
00:27:34Mid-morning.
00:27:3418, we get him as far as...
00:27:36The West End.
00:27:37I remember him saying.
00:27:39Underground.
00:27:40Printed at 1 in Piccadilly.
00:27:41So he got a tube back to the office.
00:27:44Why would he get a taxi into town and then the tube back?
00:27:46Because he was delivering something heavy.
00:27:48You know, like a package up the escalator.
00:27:51Delivering?
00:27:51To somewhere near Piccadilly Station.
00:27:53Dropped the package, delivered it, and then...
00:27:58Stopped on his way.
00:27:59He got peggish.
00:28:03So you brought your lunch from here on route to the station.
00:28:07But where were you headed from?
00:28:08Where did the taxi drop you?
00:28:11Eddie Van Koon brought a package.
00:28:13The day he died.
00:28:14Whatever was hidden inside that case.
00:28:15I managed to piece together a picture using scraps of information.
00:28:17Credit card bills, receipts.
00:28:19He flew back from China and then he came here.
00:28:20Sherlock.
00:28:21Somewhere in this street.
00:28:22Somewhere near.
00:28:22I don't know where, but...
00:28:23That shop.
00:28:24Over there.
00:28:26How can you tell?
00:28:27Lucas's diary.
00:28:27He was here too.
00:28:28He wrote down the address.
00:28:30Oh.
00:28:53Hello.
00:28:55Hello.
00:29:01You want Lucky Cat?
00:29:04No.
00:29:05Thanks.
00:29:05No.
00:29:06Ten pound.
00:29:07Ten pound.
00:29:09I think your wife, she will like.
00:29:22Sherlock.
00:29:25The label there?
00:29:27Yes, I see.
00:29:27Does that be the same as the cyber?
00:29:34It's an ancient number system.
00:29:36Hangzhou.
00:29:38These days only street traders use it.
00:29:40Those are numbers written on the wall at the bank, at the library.
00:29:43Numbers written in an ancient Chinese dialect.
00:29:46It's a 15.
00:29:48What we thought was the artist's tag.
00:29:49It's a number 15.
00:29:50And the blindfold, the horizontal line, that was a number as well.
00:29:53Chinese number one job.
00:29:54We found it.
00:30:00Two men travel back from China.
00:30:04Both paid straight for the Lucky Cat Emporium.
00:30:08What did they see?
00:30:10It's not what they saw.
00:30:12It's what they both brought back in those suitcases.
00:30:15And you don't mean duty-free?
00:30:23Think about what Sebastian told us about Van Koon, about how he stayed afloat in the market.
00:30:28Lost five million.
00:30:28Made it back in a week.
00:30:30That's how he made such easy money.
00:30:32He was a smuggler.
00:30:34I reckon he would have been perfect.
00:30:38Businessmen, making frequent trips to Asia.
00:30:40Lucas was the same in journalists writing about China.
00:30:43Both of them smuggled stuff out.
00:30:45And the Lucky Cat was their drop-off.
00:30:48Why did they die?
00:30:50It doesn't make sense.
00:30:51If they both turned up at the shop, delivered the goods, why would someone threaten them and kill them after
00:30:55the event?
00:30:56After they'd finished the job?
00:31:01What if one of them was like, Fabian?
00:31:03How do you mean?
00:31:04Stole something.
00:31:05Something from the Horde.
00:31:06I think he doesn't know which of them took it, so he threatens them back through it.
00:31:12Remind me.
00:31:14When was the last time that it rained?
00:31:24It's been here since Monday.
00:31:37It's been here since Monday.
00:31:40It's been here since they've gone on holiday.
00:31:42You leave your windows open when you go on holiday.
00:31:54Sherlock!
00:32:02Someone else has been here.
00:32:05Somebody else broke into the flat and knocked over the vase.
00:32:07Just like I did.
00:32:18Think maybe you can let me in this time?
00:32:24Can you not keep doing this, please?
00:32:32I'm not the first.
00:32:36What?
00:32:37Somebody's been in here before me.
00:32:40What are you saying?
00:32:44Size eight feet.
00:32:47Small, but...
00:32:49Athletic.
00:32:51I'm wasting my breath.
00:32:57Small, strong hands.
00:33:01Our acrobat.
00:33:04Why didn't he close the window when he left?
00:33:06Oh, stupid, stupid.
00:33:09Obvious.
00:33:11He's still here.
00:33:34Any time you want to include me.
00:33:41No, I'm Sherlock Holmes, and I always work alone because no one else can compete with my massive intellect.
00:33:45Oh, must explain.
00:33:58Oh, my God!
00:34:02Oh, my God.
00:34:05Oh, my God.
00:34:07Oh, my God.
00:34:09Oh, my God.
00:34:12Oh, my God.
00:34:25The milk's gone when the washing started to smell.
00:34:27Somebody left here in a hurry three days ago.
00:34:29Somebody?
00:34:31Sule Nya.
00:34:32We have to find him.
00:34:33How exactly?
00:34:39We could start with this.
00:34:41You've gone all croaky.
00:34:42Are you getting a cold?
00:34:43Fine.
00:34:46When was the last time that you saw her?
00:34:48Three days ago.
00:34:50I'm here at the museum.
00:34:51This morning they told me she'd resigned.
00:34:54Just like that.
00:34:55Just left her work unfinished.
00:34:58It was the last thing that she did on her final afternoon.
00:35:04She does this demonstration for the tourists.
00:35:08A tea ceremony.
00:35:10So she would have packed up her things and just put them in here.
00:35:31I have to get to Sule Nyao.
00:35:33Is she still alive?
00:35:34Sherlock!
00:35:35Look who it is.
00:35:37Find something you'll like.
00:35:45Tuesday morning.
00:35:46All you've got to do is turn up and say the bag was yours.
00:35:48Forget about your court date.
00:35:58You want to hide a tree, then a forest is the best place to do it, wouldn't you say?
00:36:03People would just walk straight past, not knowing, unable to decipher the message.
00:36:09There, I spotted it earlier.
00:36:13And that's the exact same paint?
00:36:14Yeah.
00:36:15John, if we're going to decipher this code, we're going to need to look for more evidence.
00:36:31He's just trying to figure out the clue where they 14 years ago.
00:36:31Oh, hell no!
00:36:33Like a friend later...예ens
00:36:35школ, college uni, football reform honking and football schaffen. Hey.
00:36:35Let's
00:36:35do this stuff. Hey!
00:36:36seit now... I'm
00:36:36Hey.
00:36:38Hey!
00:36:39Hey!
00:36:43Hey,
00:37:16Answer your phone.
00:37:17I've been calling you.
00:37:19I found it.
00:37:34It's been painted over.
00:37:38I don't understand.
00:37:39It was here.
00:37:43Ten minutes ago, I saw it.
00:37:45A whole load of graffiti.
00:37:47Somebody doesn't want me to see it.
00:37:50John, concentrate.
00:37:52I need you to concentrate.
00:37:53Close your eyes.
00:37:54What?
00:37:54Why?
00:37:55What are you doing?
00:37:57I need you to maximize your visual memory.
00:37:59Try to picture what you saw.
00:38:01Can you picture it?
00:38:01Yeah.
00:38:03Can you remember it?
00:38:04Yes, definitely.
00:38:04Can you remember the pattern?
00:38:05Yes.
00:38:06How much can you remember it?
00:38:07Well, don't worry.
00:38:07Because the average human memory on visual matters is only 62% accurate.
00:38:11Yeah, well, don't worry.
00:38:12I remember all of it.
00:38:13Really?
00:38:13Yeah, well, at least I would if I could get to my pockets.
00:38:15I took a photograph.
00:38:36Always in pairs, John.
00:38:38The numbers come with partners.
00:38:43God, I need to sleep.
00:38:44Why did he paint it so near the tracks?
00:38:46No idea.
00:38:47Thousands of people pass by there every day.
00:38:49Just 20 minutes.
00:38:51Of course.
00:38:53Of course he wants information.
00:38:55He's trying to communicate with his people in the underworld.
00:38:57Whatever was stolen, he wants it back.
00:39:00Somewhere here, in a code.
00:39:03We can't crack this without Su Lin Yao.
00:39:06Oh, good.
00:39:08Two men who traveled back from China were murdered.
00:39:10And their killer left the messages in Hangzhou numerals.
00:39:13Su Lin Yao's in danger.
00:39:15Now, that cipher, it was just the same pattern as the others.
00:39:18He means to kill her as well.
00:39:19Look, I've tried everywhere.
00:39:21I'm friends, colleagues.
00:39:22I don't know where she's gone.
00:39:24I mean, she could be a thousand miles away.
00:39:27What are you looking at?
00:39:28Tell me more about those teapots.
00:39:30The pots were her obsession.
00:39:33They need urgent work.
00:39:34If they dry out, then the clay can start to crumble.
00:39:37Apparently you have to just keep making tea in them.
00:39:40Yesterday, only one of those pots was shining.
00:39:43Now there are two.
00:40:11The funktioniert at the web meeting.
00:40:27It was quite a fare and trouver.
00:40:28Well, you don't understand.
00:40:29I hope that the ball still had a bit until a hour and then!
00:40:31Fancy a biscuit, Brick?
00:40:35That's centuries old.
00:40:37Don't break that.
00:40:45Hello.
00:40:47You saw the cipher.
00:40:49And you know he is coming for me.
00:40:52You've been clever to avoid him so far.
00:40:55I had to finish.
00:40:57To finish this work.
00:41:00It's only a matter of time.
00:41:02I know he will find me.
00:41:05Who is he? Have you met him before?
00:41:09When I was a girl.
00:41:11Living back in China.
00:41:14I recognized his...
00:41:16signature.
00:41:17The cipher.
00:41:20Only he would do this.
00:41:23Jiju.
00:41:25Jiju.
00:41:26The spider.
00:41:32You know this mark?
00:41:34Yes.
00:41:35It's the mark of a tong.
00:41:37Hmm?
00:41:38Ancient crime syndicate.
00:41:39Based in China.
00:41:43Every foot soldier bears the mark.
00:41:47Everyone who hauls for them.
00:41:50Halls?
00:41:53You mean you were a smuggler?
00:41:58I was 15.
00:42:01My parents were dead.
00:42:04I had no livelihood.
00:42:07No way of surviving day to day except to work for the bosses.
00:42:13Who are they?
00:42:15They are called the Black Lotus.
00:42:21By the time I was 16, I was taking thousands of pounds worth of drugs across the border into Hong
00:42:29Kong.
00:42:33I managed to leave that life behind me.
00:42:37I managed to leave that life behind me.
00:42:38I came to England.
00:42:41They gave me a job here.
00:42:46Everything was good.
00:42:48New life.
00:42:50You mean came looking for me?
00:42:52Yes.
00:42:55I had hoped after five years, maybe they would have forgotten me.
00:43:02But they never really let you leave.
00:43:06In a small community like ours, they're never very far away.
00:43:17He came to my flat.
00:43:19He asked me to help him to track down something that was stolen.
00:43:24And you have no idea what it was?
00:43:26I refused to help.
00:43:28So you knew him well when you were living back in China?
00:43:33Oh, yes.
00:43:37He's my brother.
00:43:51Two orphans.
00:43:55We had no choice.
00:43:58We could work for the Black Lotus.
00:44:02We could work for the Black Lotus.
00:44:03We could work for the Black Lotus.
00:44:08My brother has become their puppet
00:44:11in the power of the one they call Sham.
00:44:16Black Lotus General.
00:44:21I turned my brother away.
00:44:24He said I had betrayed him
00:44:29Next day I came to work
00:44:31And the cipher was waiting
00:44:40Can you decipher these?
00:44:42These are numbers
00:44:44Yes, I know
00:44:46Here, the line across the man's eyes
00:44:48It's the Chinese number one
00:44:50And this one is 15
00:44:51But what's the code?
00:44:54All the smugglers know it
00:44:56It's based upon a book
00:45:02He's here
00:45:05Jiju
00:45:07Has found me
00:45:08No, no, shut up
00:45:10Wait
00:45:12Come here, get in
00:45:13Get in
00:45:29I have to go to help him
00:45:30Hold the door after me
00:45:37I have to go to help him
00:46:01Careful
00:46:03Some of those skulls are over 200,000 years old
00:46:06I have a bit of respect
00:46:09Thank you
00:46:10Wait
00:46:10Wait
00:46:30I don't know.
00:47:02I don't know.
00:47:08Daegu...
00:47:15Jingli...
00:47:20Oh, my God.
00:47:24Oh, my God.
00:47:52How many murders is it going to take before you start believing that this maniac's out there?
00:47:58A young girl was gunned down tonight.
00:48:01That's three victims.
00:48:02In three days, you're supposed to be finding him.
00:48:04Brian Lucas and Eddie Van Coom were working for a gang of international smugglers.
00:48:08A gang called the Black Lotus operating here in London, right under your nose.
00:48:13Can you prove that?
00:48:21What are you thinking? Pork or the pasta?
00:48:23Oh, it's you.
00:48:25I suppose it's never going to trouble Egon Rene, is it?
00:48:28I'd stick with the pasta.
00:48:29Don't be doing roast pork, not if you're slicing up cadavers.
00:48:34What are you having?
00:48:35Don't eat when I'm working. Digesting slows me down.
00:48:37So you're working here tonight?
00:48:40You need to examine some bodies.
00:48:42Some?
00:48:42Eddie Van Coon and Brian Lucas.
00:48:44They're on my list.
00:48:47Could you reel them out again for me?
00:48:51Well, the paperwork's already gone through.
00:48:57Changed your hair.
00:48:58What?
00:49:00The style.
00:49:01It usually parted in the middle.
00:49:02Yes, well...
00:49:04It's good.
00:49:04It suits you better this way.
00:49:17We're just interested in the feet.
00:49:19The feet?
00:49:20Yes.
00:49:20Do you mind if we have a look at them?
00:49:29Now, Van Coon.
00:49:37Oh.
00:49:39So...
00:49:39So either these two men just happen to visit the same Chinese tattoo pile,
00:49:42or I'm telling the truth.
00:49:44What do you want?
00:49:45I want every book from Lucas' apartment and Van Coon's.
00:49:48They're books.
00:49:53They're just a criminal organization.
00:49:55It's a cult.
00:49:58Her brother was corrupted by one of its leaders.
00:50:01Su Lin said the name.
00:50:02Yes, Sian.
00:50:04General Sian.
00:50:05We're still not closer to finding them.
00:50:06Wrong.
00:50:07We've got almost all we need to know.
00:50:09She gave us most of the missing pieces.
00:50:12Why did he need to visit his sister?
00:50:14Why did he need her expertise?
00:50:15She worked at the museum.
00:50:16Exactly.
00:50:16An expert in antiquities.
00:50:19Of course, I see.
00:50:20Valuable antiquities, John.
00:50:21Ancient Chinese relics purchased on the black market.
00:50:24China's home to a thousand treasures hidden after Mao's revolution.
00:50:27The black motors is selling them.
00:50:33Check for the dates.
00:50:35Here, John.
00:50:36Arrived from China four days ago.
00:50:38Anonymous.
00:50:40Bender doesn't give his name.
00:50:42Two undiscovered treasures from the East.
00:50:44One in Lucas' sim case and one in Van Coon's.
00:50:49Antiquities.
00:50:51Sold at auction.
00:50:53Look, here's another one.
00:50:55Arrived from China a month ago.
00:50:57Chinese ceramic statue sold 400,000.
00:51:01Look, a month before that, Chinese painting, half a million.
00:51:04All of them from an anonymous source.
00:51:06They're stealing them back in China and one by one.
00:51:08They're feeding them into Britain.
00:51:09Huh.
00:51:12Well, every single auction coincides with Lucas or Van Coon travelling to China.
00:51:17So what if one of them got greedy when they were in China?
00:51:18What if one of them stole something?
00:51:20That's why she's used to come.
00:51:21Oh, sorry.
00:51:23Are we collecting for charity, Sherlock?
00:51:25What?
00:51:25A young man's outside with crepes of books.
00:51:34So the numbers are references?
00:51:36To books.
00:51:37To specific pages and specific words on those pages.
00:51:41Right.
00:51:41So 15 and 1, that means?
00:51:44Turn to page 15 and it's the first word you read.
00:51:46Okay.
00:51:46So what's the message?
00:51:47Depends on the book.
00:51:49That's the coming-up book code.
00:51:51Has to be one that they both own.
00:51:56Okay, fine.
00:51:56Good.
00:51:57Well, this shouldn't take too long, shall we?
00:52:12We found these at the museum.
00:52:14Is this your writing?
00:52:16Uh, we hoped Sue Lynn could decipher it for us.
00:52:19Tough.
00:52:21Anything else I can do?
00:52:24To assist you, you know what I mean?
00:52:25Some silence right now would be marvellous.
00:52:41Cigarette.
00:53:08Imagine.
00:53:29I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but we haven't got anything now until next Thursday.
00:53:34This is taking ages.
00:53:37Sorry.
00:53:42What's going on?
00:53:43That new doctor you hired.
00:53:45He hasn't buzzed the intercom for ages.
00:53:48Let me go and have a word.
00:53:50Excuse me.
00:53:51Sorry.
00:53:53John?
00:53:57John?
00:54:09Looks like I'm done.
00:54:11I thought I had some more to see.
00:54:13Oh, I did one or two of yours.
00:54:14One or two?
00:54:15Well, maybe five or six.
00:54:19I'm sorry.
00:54:19That's not very professional.
00:54:21No.
00:54:21No, not really.
00:54:23I had a bit of a late one.
00:54:26Oh, right.
00:54:30Anyway, see you.
00:54:31So, what were you doing to keep you up so late?
00:54:35I was attending a sort of book event.
00:54:39Oh.
00:54:39Oh, she likes books.
00:54:41Does she?
00:54:41Your girlfriend?
00:54:43No, it wasn't a date.
00:54:44Good.
00:54:45I mean, um...
00:54:46And I don't have one tonight.
00:54:50A book that everybody would earn.
00:55:01Fifteen.
00:55:02Entry one.
00:55:16I need to get some air.
00:55:17We're going out tonight.
00:55:18Actually, I've got a date.
00:55:20What?
00:55:21To where two people who like each other go out and have fun.
00:55:23That's what I was suggesting.
00:55:25No, it wasn't.
00:55:26At least, I hope not.
00:55:28Are you taking her?
00:55:29Cinema.
00:55:30Dull, boring, predictable.
00:55:33Why don't you try this?
00:55:34In London for one night only.
00:55:38Thanks, but I don't come to you with dating advice.
00:55:40It's years since anyone took me to the circus.
00:55:43Right, yes.
00:55:45Well, it's a friend recommended it to me.
00:55:48They phoned up.
00:55:49Oh, what are they?
00:55:50Two in company or something?
00:55:51I don't know much about it.
00:55:53I think they're probably from China.
00:55:55Yes, I think so, yes.
00:55:57It was a coincidence.
00:55:59That's wonderful.
00:56:00Thank you very much.
00:56:02Hi, I have two tickets reserved for tonight.
00:56:04And what's the name?
00:56:05Uh, Holmes.
00:56:09Actually, I have three in that name.
00:56:12No, I don't think so.
00:56:13We only booked two.
00:56:14Then I phoned back and got one for myself as well.
00:56:17I'm Sherlock.
00:56:21Hi.
00:56:22Hello.
00:56:26You couldn't let me have just one night off.
00:56:29Hello, Dragon Circus.
00:56:30In London for one day, it fits.
00:56:32The Tongs sent an assassin to England.
00:56:34Dressed as a tightrope walker.
00:56:35Come on, Sherlock, behave!
00:56:36We're looking for a killer who can climb,
00:56:37who could shin up a rope.
00:56:37Where else would you find that level of dexterity?
00:56:40Exit fees are scarce in China.
00:56:42They need a pretty good reason to get out of that country.
00:56:44Now, all I need to do is have a quick look around the place.
00:56:45Fine, you do that.
00:56:46I'm going to take Sarah for a pint.
00:56:47I need your help.
00:56:48I do have a couple of other things on my mind this evening.
00:56:50Like what?
00:56:52You are kidding.
00:56:54What's so important?
00:56:55Sherlock, I'm right in the middle of a date.
00:56:56You want me to chase some killer while I'm trying to...
00:56:58What?
00:57:00While I'm trying to get off with Sarah.
00:57:03Hey.
00:57:04Ready?
00:57:05Yeah.
00:57:15You said circus.
00:57:16This is not a circus.
00:57:17The size of this crowd.
00:57:19Sherlock, this is...
00:57:20Art.
00:57:22This is not their day job.
00:57:23No, sorry, I forgot.
00:57:24They're not a circus.
00:57:25They're a gang of international smugglers.
00:57:26Scenes.
00:57:28No.
00:57:30No.
00:57:33No.
00:57:35No.
00:57:35No.
00:57:44No.
00:57:46No.
00:57:49Oh no.

01:00:49from the distant moonlit shores of the Yangtze River,
01:00:54we present for your pleasure
01:00:56the deadly Chinese bird spider.
01:01:08You see that?
01:01:31Well, well.
01:02:00I'm here.
01:02:05I'm here.
01:02:13I'm here.

01:02:47I'm here.
01:03:16I'm here.
01:03:19These circus performers were gang members sent here to get it back.
01:03:21Get what back?
01:03:23We don't know.
01:03:25You don't know?
01:03:28Mr. Holmes,
01:03:29I've done everything you asked.
01:03:31Lestrade seems to think your advice is worth something.
01:03:33I gave the order for a raid.
01:03:35Please tell me I'll have something to show for it,
01:03:37other than a massive bill for overtime.
01:03:44They'll be back in China tomorrow.
01:03:46No, they won't leave without what they came for.
01:03:49We need to find a hideout.
01:03:50A rendezvous.
01:03:53Somewhere in this message it must tell us.
01:04:00Well, I think perhaps I should leave you to it.
01:04:02Yes, it would be better to study if you left now.
01:04:04You can stay.
01:04:04He's kidding.
01:04:05Please stay if you'd like.
01:04:08Is it just me or is anyone else starving?
01:04:11Oh, God.
01:04:23So this is what you do?
01:04:26You and John, you solve puzzles for a living.
01:04:29Consulting detective.
01:04:31Oh.
01:04:33Oh.
01:04:37What are these squiggles?
01:04:40They're numbers.
01:04:41An ancient Chinese dialect.
01:04:43Oh, right.
01:04:44Yeah.
01:04:44Well, of course I should have known that.
01:04:49Ooh.
01:04:51And a punch.
01:04:54And a ripple of your nipples.
01:04:55His answer, you're a saint.
01:04:57If it was Monday, I'd have been to the soup.
01:04:59Oh, thank you.
01:05:07So these numbers, it's a cipher?
01:05:09Exactly.
01:05:10And each pair of numbers is a word?
01:05:12How did you know that?
01:05:14Well, two words have already been translated here.
01:05:19John?
01:05:19Hmm?
01:05:21John, look at this.
01:05:23Sulean at the museum.
01:05:24She started to translate the code for us.
01:05:26We didn't see it.
01:05:29Nine mil.
01:05:34Nine million quid for what?
01:05:37Need to know the end of this sentence.
01:05:39Where are you going?
01:05:40To the museum, to the restoration room.
01:05:42We must have been staring right at it.
01:05:44At what?
01:05:44The book, John.
01:05:45The book, the key to cracking the ciphers.
01:05:47Sulean used it to do this.
01:05:48Whilst we were running around the gallery, she started to translate the code.
01:05:51Well, let's go.
01:05:52Let's go.
01:05:54Let's go.
01:05:55Let's go.
01:05:56Come on.
01:05:56Come on.
01:05:57Come on.
01:05:58Come on.
01:05:59Let's go.
01:06:00Let's go.
01:06:01Let's go.
01:06:22The book that everybody would own.
01:06:28Please.
01:06:29Wait.
01:06:29Please.
01:06:31What do you want?
01:06:32What do you want?
01:06:34What do you want?
01:06:34Hey, you.
01:06:35What do you want?
01:06:35What do you want?
01:06:36Let me go.
01:06:37Let me go.
01:06:40Yeah.
01:06:41No, absolutely.
01:06:42I mean, well, a quiet night in is just, just what the doctor ordered.
01:06:46I mean, I'd love to go out of an evening and wrestle a few Chinese gangsters, you know, generally,
01:06:51but a girl can get too much.
01:06:52No thanks.
01:06:55Hmm.
01:06:56Um, should we get a takeaway?
01:06:59Yeah.
01:07:01Page 15.
01:07:02Entry 1.
01:07:03Page 15.
01:07:04Entry 1.
01:07:08Dead man.
01:07:10You were threatening to kill them.
01:07:11It's the first sofa.
01:07:13StS.
01:07:13Oh no.
01:07:17Yeah.
01:07:18Hmm.
01:07:18That's it.
01:07:22At least a minute.
01:07:28Seems like it passed.
01:07:30I think I have to, what are we going militantly.
01:07:31Oh, man.
01:07:44Oh, blimey, that was quick. I'll just pop down.
01:07:47Do you want me to lay the table?
01:07:50Erm, eat-off trays? Yeah.
01:07:52Yeah.
01:08:05Sorry to keep you. How much do you want?
01:08:06Do you have it?
01:08:08What?
01:08:08Do you have the treasure?
01:08:10I don't understand.
01:08:24Nine mil, four, jade pin, dragon den, black, tramway.
01:08:41John, John, I've got it.
01:08:44The cipher, the book, it's the London 8% of the use.
01:09:02A book is like a magic garden, carried in your pocket.
01:09:22Chinese proverb, Mr. Holmes.
01:09:26I'm not Sherlock Holmes.
01:09:27Forgive me if I do not take your word for it.
01:09:36Debit card, name of S. Holmes.
01:09:39Take my card.
01:09:40Yes, it's not actually...
01:09:41Why did he let that for now?
01:09:43The cheque for £5,000, made out in the name of Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
01:09:48He gave me it to look after.
01:09:52Tickets from the theatre collected by you, name of Holmes.
01:09:55Yes, okay.
01:09:56What's the name?
01:09:57Holmes.
01:09:57I realise what this looks like, but I'm not him.
01:10:01We heard it from your own mouth.
01:10:03What?
01:10:04I am Sherlock Holmes, and I always work alone.
01:10:08Because no one else can compete with my massive intellect!
01:10:11Did I really say that?
01:10:15I suppose they used me to persuade you when I was doing an impression.
01:10:22I am Sean.
01:10:25You're... you're Sean.
01:10:27Three times we tried to kill you and your companion, Mr. Holmes.
01:10:31What does it tell you when an assassin cannot shoot straight?
01:10:48It tells you that they're not really trying.
01:10:50No.
01:10:52Yeah.
01:10:53Yeah.
01:10:53Try and wait.
01:10:54Oh, shit.
01:11:14Not like the bullets now.
01:11:17If we wanted to kill you, Mr. Holmes, we would have done it by now.
01:11:21We just wanted to make you inquisitive.
01:11:26Do you have it?
01:11:27Like what?
01:11:28The treasure.
01:11:29I don't know what you're talking about.
01:11:31I would prefer to make Saturn.
01:11:38Everything in the West has its price.
01:11:41And the price for her life.
01:11:44Information.
01:11:49Sorry!
01:12:08Where's the hairpin?
01:12:09What?
01:12:10The Empress pin.
01:12:12Valued at nine million sterling.
01:12:14We already had a buyer in the West.
01:12:16And then one of our people was greedy.
01:12:17He took it, brought it back to London.
01:12:19And you, Mr. Holmes, have been searching.
01:12:21Please, please, listen to me.
01:12:24I'm not a Sherlock Holmes.
01:12:26You have to believe me.
01:12:27I haven't found whatever it is you're looking for.
01:12:29I need a volunteer from the audience.
01:12:31No, please, please.
01:12:32Ah, thank you, lady.
01:12:35Yes, you'll do very nicely.
01:12:58Ladies and gentlemen.
01:13:00From the distant moonary shores of N.W.1, we present for your pleasure, Sherlock Holmes, pretty companion in a
01:13:12death-defying act.
01:13:14Please!
01:13:17You've seen the act before. How dull for you. You know how it is.
01:13:23I'm not Sherlock Holmes!
01:13:25I don't believe you.
01:13:26You should, you know. Sherlock Holmes is nothing at all like him.
01:13:31How would you describe me, John? Resourceful? Dynamic? Enigmatic?
01:13:36Right.
01:13:37That's a semi-automatic. If you fire it, the bullet will travel at over a thousand meters per second.
01:13:42Well?
01:13:43Well, the radius curvature of these walls is nearly four meters. If you miss, the bullet will ricochet.
01:13:49Could hit anyone. Might even bounce off the tunnel and hit you.
01:13:56Jack makes his strength.
01:13:57Oh.
01:14:03Oh.
01:14:06Oh.
01:14:09Bang.
01:14:13Oh.
01:14:18Oh.
01:14:19Oh.
01:14:32Let's go.
01:15:07It's all right.
01:15:10You're going to be right.
01:15:12Self-in-law.
01:15:12Self-in-law.
01:15:18Don't worry.
01:15:20Next date won't be like this.
01:15:35We'll just slip off.
01:15:36No need to mention this in the report.
01:15:37Mr. Holmes.
01:15:38I have high hopes for you, Inspector.
01:15:40A glittering career.
01:15:43I go where you point me.
01:15:46Exactly.
01:15:53What's that?
01:15:57So, nine million.
01:15:58Million, yes.
01:15:59Nine million for Jade Pin, Dragon Den, Black Tramway.
01:16:03An instruction to all their London operatives.
01:16:05A message.
01:16:06What they were trying to reclaim.
01:16:07What, Jade Pin?
01:16:08Worth nine million pounds.
01:16:09Bring it to the tramway, their London hideout.
01:16:11Hang on.
01:16:11A hairpin worth nine million pounds?
01:16:14Apparently.
01:16:14Why so much?
01:16:16Depends who owned it.
01:16:23Two operatives based in London.
01:16:25They travel over to Dalian to smuggle those vases.
01:16:28One of them helps himself to something.
01:16:30A little hairpin.
01:16:31Worth nine million pounds.
01:16:32Eddie Van Coon was the thief.
01:16:33He stole the treasure when he was in China.
01:16:35How do you know it was Van Coon, not Lucas?
01:16:37Even the killer didn't know that.
01:16:38Because of the soap.
01:16:51Amanda?
01:16:52We brought you a present.
01:16:53Oh, hello.
01:16:54A little gift when you came back from China.
01:16:57How do you know that?
01:16:58You weren't just his PA, were you?
01:17:01Someone's been gossiping?
01:17:02No.
01:17:03Then I don't understand why...
01:17:04Scented hand soap in his apartment.
01:17:06Three hundred milliliters of it.
01:17:08Bottle almost finished.
01:17:10Sorry.
01:17:11I don't think Eddie Van Coon was the type of chap to buy himself hand soap.
01:17:13Not unless he had a lady coming over.
01:17:15And it's the same brand as that hand cream there on your desk.
01:17:20Look, it wasn't serious between us.
01:17:23It was over in a flash.
01:17:25It couldn't last.
01:17:26He was my boss.
01:17:28What happened?
01:17:29Why did you end it?
01:17:32I thought he didn't appreciate me.
01:17:35Took me for granted.
01:17:38Stood me up once too often.
01:17:40We'd planned to go away for the weekend and then he'd just leave.
01:17:43Fly off to China at a moment's notice.
01:17:45He brought you a present from abroad to say sorry.
01:17:49Can I just have a look at it?
01:17:57You really climbed up onto the balcony.
01:18:00They have a plank across the window and all your problems are over.
01:18:05Thanks.
01:18:08Said he bought it in a street market.
01:18:10Oh, I don't think that's true.
01:18:11I think he pinched it.
01:18:13Yeah, that's Eddie.
01:18:14I didn't know its value.
01:18:15Just thought it would suit you.
01:18:16Oh?
01:18:18What's it worth?
01:18:21Nine million pounds.
01:18:26Oh, my God.
01:18:28Oh, my God.
01:18:30Nine million.
01:18:44Over a thousand years old.
01:18:45And it's sitting on her bedside table every night.
01:18:48I didn't know its value.
01:18:49I didn't know why they were chasing him.
01:18:50Oh.
01:18:52She would have just got her a lucky can.
01:18:54Hmm.
01:18:57You mind, don't you?
01:18:59What?
01:19:01That she escaped.
01:19:02General Chan's not enough that we got her two henchmen.
01:19:05Must be a vast network, John.
01:19:07Thousands of operatives.
01:19:08You and I have barely scratched the surface.
01:19:10You cracked the code, though, Sherlock.
01:19:13And maybe Dimmock can track down all of them now that he knows it.
01:19:15No.
01:19:16No.
01:19:18I cracked this code.
01:19:19All the smugglers have to do is pick up another book.
01:19:46Without you,
01:19:49without your assistance,
01:19:52we would not have found passage into London.
01:19:57You have my thanks.
01:20:10We did not anticipate.
01:20:13We did not anticipate.
01:20:14We did not know this man would come.
01:20:17This Sherlock Holmes.
01:20:23And now your safety is compromised.
01:20:35I will not reveal your identity.
01:20:40Oh.
01:20:45We did not clap.
01:20:46We did not know this man would come.
01:20:46Yeah.
01:20:46No.
01:20:46No limiting.
01:20:46No.
01:20:46No.
