18:40yourselves in a tight spot you know where to turn so kind my pleasure mutual aid is
18:45what it's all about and if we ever happen to be involved in the same case I hope we'll
18:50cooperate right see you around Fred you too inspector
18:58well what do you expect you're in court the other week trying to nail that copper
19:03anyway what's he come here for as long as you keep him out of there he might prove quite useful
19:08one day
19:09that creep there's certain things best left to a man you know
19:13like what like impersonating one if you ever need to
19:20Frederica I've been taking a look at your expenses
19:24oh Giles is looking at yours
19:29his car's tucked away up the lane he's hoping I haven't spotted it's his Jake
19:34never mind mr. Jarvis now well he's a villain and he's scared we're on to him
19:40for what fixing a marriage so there's some Chinese girl can get herself over
19:44to Holland as a Dutch citizen it was his car that was parked outside the
19:48registry office when she ran off and it was his car that followed her is this one
19:53for the police in the interest of the taxpayer we should leave them something to
19:57do Prudence has been telling me about your Dutchman have you got a proper
20:02contract with him not yet don't tell me you're looking for him in home office time
20:06just because you fancy him he's quite fanciable but as for looking for his
20:15bride he already signed up Jarvis so you didn't get to him first after all
20:21well let's aside Fred you have no evidence that Jarvis is up to no good
20:26I'd probably resent you muscling in on his case who is this girl
20:30Min Kuang Yulin Tai from Hong Kong from Hong Kong hmm I can tell you her father's name
20:37that was on the marriage certificate as well they all look alike to Westerners
20:42don't they dark hair narrow eyes not to mention a touch of sulfur in the skin as
20:49distinct from the tar brush Malaysian perhaps but um definitely not Chinese
21:08leaving I decide to take your advice that's all that so I'm off just as soon as I find out
21:13who
21:14she is and I have someone else to help me find her huh miss Frederica Smith from eyes
21:19well at least she does not want me off home until I find out who I am married to I
21:23only one of you are fun because that's what I thought your wife was aren't you
21:26meant to drive on the left in this country as a matter of fact she's in the
21:29south of France Marseille
21:38oh certainly I remember her she may not be Chinese after all
21:44ethnologist are you I'm just a registrar and they all look alike to me anyway
21:50orientals brides she can't be born in Hong Kong where she was born it's no
21:55concern of mine just as long as she's not been married before they can be red
22:00white and blue and wanted for murder they have the same right to marry in Zingadoo
22:03Dutchman this Dutchman could speak good English the last one to marry an
22:08oriental girl in her was German and until I got an interpreter I don't think he had the
22:13foggiest notion what was going on do they often marry foreigners then is that a
22:19crime I guess to acquire foreign citizenship as long as they believe at
22:23the time that their marriage is for life I kind of doubt that if I allowed
22:27myself such doubts miss Smith my conscience would prevent me from marrying
22:30anyone at all however if you care to take a look at the current register you will
22:34find a numerous number of weddings lately between Chinese girls and either Dutchman or
22:40Germans but if it leads to these girls getting out of the country frankly I'd
22:45have thought that was something to be encouraged at least they're not marrying
22:48Englishmen there aren't many salings director Rotterdam she could have
22:56gone from Dover to Ostendland yeah well she didn't my agent over there picked her out
23:00soon enough she was the only Chinese looking girl among the passengers and she's
23:05no reason to deny she was mrs. van der Velde once she got ashore she's proud of her
23:09citizenship how did you get in without a passport she borrowed one from a French
23:14girl whose family came from Indochina well with that lot you can't tell one
23:18from another if they're roughly the same age and you've only got a passport photo to
23:21go on anyway with French papers she could get to Marseilles which is where she
23:26wanted to go why not to Holland ask her if you want her address it's on that pad over there
23:36my colleague said she'd be pleased to talk to you if you insisted she'll be on this number till late
23:41they're not there well she can give it yourself
23:46uh bonjour madame pardonnez-moi je veux parler oh madame van der Velde
24:00min it is peter your husband remember but what's the matter you got your money and you have your
24:08dutch nationality so we're both happy fantastic why are you in France if it's the divorce that you're
24:15worried about divorce cannot we have some marriage to it usually comes first I'm in France Marseille what
24:25is the address 15 Rue de la Madeleine Marseille you think I made Paris this evening so I hitch a
24:38lift on
24:38the autolue tonight well adobe of Calais no problem you probably get to Paris in time to get the overnight
24:43train
24:45I'll be with you this time tomorrow okay fantastic listen I love you
25:02hey what do you think my mother would say if I walk in after two years with a Chinese wife
25:15get back to work I've got a business to run
25:17someone called me in my time
25:23so why come here when it's really Holland or Germany that they're set on
25:29presumably because immigration control over here is just a bit more lax if you're coming from a British
25:34colony I imagine there are plenty of you marry Englishmen not on this list
25:39okay I only checked with three registry offices and in all 15 cases these Chinese girls have married
25:45either Germans or Dutchmen
25:47if Nigel's right they may not even be Chinese
25:50well Min presented her birth certificate the registrar told me
25:55if it's a forgery I mean why pretend to be someone who shouldn't be here at all
26:00ask Maggie she's got a theory of her own about this she doesn't know
26:24impersonation
26:38Peter!
26:41She's in Marseille.
26:43That's in France.
26:45You'll have to be doing your chuffing too, yeah?
26:47Mr. Jarvis, he tracked her down for me.
26:49Looks like he has got good connections after all.
26:51He's having you on.
26:53Having me on what?
26:54He's conning you.
26:55Fooling you.
26:56But I just speak to her.
26:58She's expecting me there tomorrow morning.
27:00It is fantastic, yeah?
27:02Mr. Jarvis has reserved me on the hoverboard from Dover to Calais.
27:05So I will catch a bus to the autobahn and then hitch a look down to the coast from there.
27:09How much is he charging you to find her?
27:12Six pounds and fifty pence.
27:15For phone calls.
27:17Plus VAT.
27:18Right, right.
27:21He is making a lot out of you, isn't he?
27:28How do you know you spoke to her in Marseille?
27:32You think I did not?
27:33If you know where she really is, tell me.
27:36Because my bus leaves in fifteen minutes.
27:39And I have to be on it if I'm going to be in Dover by eight.
27:41And Paris by midnight and also Marseille by tomorrow morning.
27:44I'm sure your wife wouldn't mind you being late.
27:47Yes, but you are not married to her, are you?
27:50You can afford to be wrong.
27:52I cannot.
27:53If I am being had on, then I can always come back.
27:58Well, cut your losses and take a slow boat to India.
28:17Yes?
28:18Fred Smith from Eyes.
28:21What do you want?
28:23We're in a tight spot.
28:35That's quite a list.
28:36That girl could be any one of them.
28:38How can she have a record?
28:41Even if she'd only been done for shoplifting,
28:43she'd have found herself deported if she'd been here illegally.
28:45I don't think she is here illegally.
28:47So why this marriage, Charade?
28:49I'd really like pictures transmitted of the whole list,
28:51but they'll kick at the expense.
28:52You'd need my authority to get any one of them.
28:55That's why I sent for you, Nigel.
28:57I'm not an errand boy, Margaret.
28:59Yes, but doors do open for you, don't they?
29:02I'll settle for the three whose last known addresses are in our area.
29:09If 15-room Adeline's just an hole in the wall,
29:12or she hops it before he gets there,
29:14it's no skin off my nose.
29:16If we ever found ourselves working on the same case, you said.
29:19The case is closed.
29:20And I didn't need a computer to track her down with neither.
29:23Nor any of that expensive hardware,
29:25which might explain that fancy aerial you've got on your roof.
29:28Just the good old blower.
29:30I've been at this game a little bit longer than you, darling.
29:33There's no substitute for experience.
29:35You learned that.
29:36Why don't you want Peter to find her, Mr. Jarvis?
29:39Is she a friend of yours?
29:41They can't stick anything on her just for marrying him, you know.
29:44Whatever her motives.
29:46Unless she wasn't who she said she was.
29:48She presented her birth certificate.
29:50How do you know?
29:52You have to.
29:53No, you don't.
29:55Besides, what does a birth certificate prove?
29:57In every other country in Europe,
29:59you have to have a passport or ID card to get married.
30:02A registrar told me that.
30:03A photograph to show you really are who you claim to be.
30:07In jolly old England,
30:09you could use anyone's birth certificate.
30:11As long as you roughly fit the facts that are on it.
30:14Who'd want to do that?
30:15Whoever you are, your birth's registered somewhere.
30:18But it explains why they come to England, though, doesn't it?
30:21Not having a passport or ID card to get married anywhere else.
30:24Listen, I don't want to be inhospitable, but I have a lot of work to do.
30:28Come to think of it,
30:30they don't even have to come to England.
30:32England, just have their birth certificate sent.
30:36And Bill could do that.
30:38Bill?
30:39Then all he's got to do is,
30:42well, they all look alike.
30:43Look, why don't you go and play detectives back at the ranch
30:46with the other lady, Sluice?
30:47I'm not sure I want him to find her now.
30:50And if you're mixed up in this,
30:52which I think you are,
30:53right up to your neck,
30:55I can understand why you don't.
30:56Whatever you're on about, I'm not bothered.
30:59Get it?
30:59I think he will be when he finds her.
31:02And so will he.
31:04He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:07Not even at the wedding.
31:16He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:18He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:20He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:23He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:25He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:27He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:29He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:29He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:30He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:31He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:33He's married to a woman he's never set eyes on.
31:42Excuse, please.
31:43I'm not heading for the door, but...
31:45Bill!
31:46Well, that's great.
31:47Fantastic.
31:48Mr. Van Der Veld.
31:50On your way home, are you?
31:51I was looking out for you the other night.
31:53I thought you might be thumbing a lift back.
31:55Come on, let me take that.
31:56Not being, eh?
31:58It's a racket that's been used for refugees before.
32:02They somehow managed to get to Germany or Holland
32:05where they're approached by an illicit organization
32:07that offers them German or Dutch citizenship
32:10in return for a thousand pounds
32:12and the loan of their birth certificate.
32:15This is then sent to some operator in England.
32:18Al Jarvis.
32:19He may be the link man here,
32:21but there are others scattered about the country.
32:26The link man's job is to find someone
32:29to impersonate the refugee.
32:31She then presents the birth certificate.
32:35And fixes up a wedding
32:37with a German or a Dutchman already recruited.
32:40By Bill.
32:43Whose passport details she's been supplied with.
32:46After the wedding...
32:47Off goes the marriage certificate
32:48to the woman abroad who's paid for it.
32:50From which the Dutch bridegroom has never even seen.
32:53Not that he minds.
32:54He's been paid.
32:55Oh, Peter minds.
32:56Where is he?
32:56He's gone to Dover.
32:57Well, you let him go.
32:59Bill couldn't hold him,
33:00but they'll call us from the hoverboard
33:01as soon as he shows up.
33:02So what do we tell him?
33:03To change course for Holland,
33:04because that's where his wife is.
33:05The one with the wedding certificate, anyway.
33:07In Holland?
33:08She's never been anywhere else.
33:10And that's why Jarvis doesn't want him to go there.
33:12The one I want to find
33:14is the girl he thinks he's married to.
33:16The stand-in at the registry office.
33:17I don't think she's gone that far.
33:19Come and look.
33:20Well, you found her.
33:20I think so, but you can identify her.
33:24Real name, Tan Ubon.
33:26Malayan.
33:27Convicted for obtaining money by false pretenses.
33:30Someone had her knocking on doors
33:32with a collecting box for the Ethiopian relief.
33:35She made quite a haul.
33:45Who's gone to Thatcher?
33:46Where?
33:47Chatham.
33:47He works in a sweatshop.
33:59Tan!
34:01You search your machine.
34:03I don't pay you to check your boyfriend.
34:04She'll check later.
34:06And what do you want?
34:07I'd like to talk to one of your workers
34:09if you think this will be.
34:10Not in my time, lady.
34:11Out.
34:12They knock off at 6.30.
34:13You talk later, right?
34:15Well, I'll have to talk to you instead.
34:16My time's money, too.
34:18About your work conditions here.
34:19Just the one entrance, no windows, no fire escape.
34:22I could have you closed down.
34:24Closed down?
34:26You do like he says.
34:28Get out.
34:29We like conditions here.
34:31And also about the money your workers get paid.
34:34Are you from the union?
34:35We don't want no union here.
34:37We don't want no strikes here.
34:39We want to work.
34:41Come on, lady.
34:42Oh, I surrender.
34:43You can get back to your treadmill now.
34:48So, if anyone comes asking questions before then,
34:51you know speak you the English, right?
34:54I'll pick you up at half six.
34:57All right, if she stays here.
34:58I can't risk having her at my place.
35:00Who is she?
35:01She's in a bit of trouble.
35:02Got to lie low.
35:03I expect she's used to that if she's one of your women.
35:06She's not.
35:07She's one of Bill's.
35:08I'll go and fetch her.
35:10Bill's?
35:11Over in Chatham.
35:13Hang on.
35:14You telling me Bill's got a woman at Chatham?
35:17Where do you think he sleeps when I'm here?
35:19In his cab?
35:20Yes.
35:28It's a shame I'm not heading south.
35:29I could give him a lift all the way to Marseille.
35:31Where are you headed?
35:33Over, I still don't know.
35:34And up to Hamburg.
35:35So you go through Holland?
35:37Yeah.
35:39Listen, you've got to get yourself to Marseille.
35:42When you catch the 8.30 hovercraft at Cali, you'll be fine.
35:46Do you think my wife is in Marseille?
35:50Well, if that geezer was his name says, I mean...
35:52But what do you think?
35:54It was you that got me to marry her so she could become Dutch citizen.
35:57Why is she going to France?
35:59Look, all I do is arrange for the bridegroom, it's like a lads like yourself.
36:04Get the passport details and fix up a place to stay until you're married.
36:08Who is it behind it all?
36:10Come on, now.
36:12That would be talent, wouldn't it?
36:15But now she's Mrs. Peter Vonderveld, she has to be in Holland.
36:20The hovercraft, you can sail without me.
36:22I catch the ferry to Ostend with you, okay?
36:26Sure.
36:27You can drop me off in Holland tomorrow.
36:30But Mr. Jarvis, he was definitely helping me on.
37:03The hovercraft, you can drop me off in Holland.
37:16Come on, darling.
37:21Hello, Duchess.
37:23What brings you here?
37:24I can make my own inquiries without help, you know.
37:26The police will want to question her.
37:28That's exactly where I'm taking her.
37:29Police? What for?
37:30For perjury, conspiracy and fraud.
37:33I think you can leave this to me, Mr. Jarvis.
37:35You're not even an ex-police inspector.
37:37But he said you're not police.
37:39It's called citizen's arrest.
37:50Where are you taking me?
37:52To meet your husband.
37:54I've got the girl.
37:55What time does the hovercraft sail?
37:578.30.
37:58She'll just make it.
38:01I may say that when I told my superiors at HO that this racket seems now to have been enlarged
38:08to embrace some of our oriental friends from the Far East, they were most concerned.
38:12I told them I found 15 cases in this area alone between visiting foreigners and...
38:17You found them?
38:20We work as a team, Frederica.
38:22Approves taken at Adoba so that your Dutch friend can meet her in town.
38:31Turned the girl in, have you?
38:33Immigration racket.
38:34Exposed by lady amateurs and one ex-probe.
38:37Another feather in your cap, eh?
38:39Mutual aid, I said.
38:41Not pinching my bloody living.
38:42He came to me to find his wife and when I did...
38:45You told him she was in Marseille.
38:47Yeah, so when I really found out she was working in Chatham, I'd go and get her.
38:51Only to have your lady snatch her from under me.
38:54There's plenty of witnesses back there to say I was already taking her to the law myself
38:58before you lot crashed in for the pickings.
39:00And whatever she says in court, there's nothing anyone can pin on me in all this.
39:04Even if I do know a whole lot more about it than you kids do
39:07with your fancy toys and your smart motors and your rich sugar daddy to finance you.
39:12As it happens, I'm just a client.
39:14What, with a daimler and a chauffeur?
39:17All the big money's outside the country these days.
39:20So you set these kids up as a front for whatever it is you're playing at.
39:23Out here on the river with them aerials on the roof.
39:26I've got the odd contact in Whitehall who might be very interested in you lot.
39:30Get that.
39:31Yeah, bend the right here and I could have the home office sorting this place out.
39:34So, what's the deal then?
39:36Keep me out of it.
39:38You can have all the glory and all the facts.
39:41I think we've got all the facts, Mr. Jarvis.
39:43You don't know where the marriage certificates get sent to on the continent
39:46or who finds the lads to put themselves up at their wedding shops.
39:49Bill does that.
39:50And Bill knows who's behind this racket.
39:53Bill who?
39:59You still write your parents then, do you?
40:01Oh, sometimes.
40:03Where do you think you are at the moment?
40:06Cashmere.
40:08Cashmere?
40:36All right now, you get your ticket over there.
40:38You write for money?
40:39Yeah, you're not so skinned.
40:40Well, don't be too long, will you?
40:41Then start loading soon.
40:42I just make telephone call home.
40:45Listen, you don't want to do that.
40:46Why don't you give them a surprise?
40:48Come on, I'll go with you.
41:17I'll go with you.
41:28Thanks.
41:30That was Passport Control, Dover.
41:33The hovercraft just left.
41:35Peter wasn't on it.
41:36It must be.
41:37Where's Bill taking him?
41:39Bill?
41:40Of course, Bill.
41:42You would have told him your trick to get Peter to Marseille.
41:45You made his travel arrangements.
41:47You even sent him to the transport cafe so Bill knew where to pick him up.
41:50So, yes, where has Bill taken him?
41:53I thought to Dover.
41:54So you get to Calais and then to Paris.
41:57What's the registration number?
42:00Is it a deal?
42:01Like hell, it's a deal.
42:03If anything happens to that boy.
42:04Happens?
42:05What do you want about?
42:06A boy who hasn't seen his family for two years isn't going to be missed.
42:10What's the registration number?
42:20What do you want about?
42:42It's A311 RSU.
42:46They could be on the ferry for Ostend that leaves in ten minutes.
42:49If not, they haven't left the country yet.
42:51But I may have done by the time I've found out.
42:54Tell Nigel to get me immediate clearance to go on board.
42:56He's doing that now.
42:58I'll send you a postcard from Ostend.
43:03There's a bit of a wind blowing up.
43:04Could be in for a rough crossing.
43:06But it's not too good.
43:07I've got a sickness at the sea.
43:09You'll be all right on deck.
43:10That's a good thing.
43:11That's a good thing.
43:12You can see it off.
43:13You'll be posting.
43:14One hour.
43:25Who's done, Post?
43:26I have to go on board.
43:27What about passports?
43:28No passports.
43:28You've been told.
43:29Check it out.
43:30Oh, come on.
43:31There's plenty of time for all that.
43:32Let's go and have a drink.
43:33I could make my fare to India on this last.
43:35Sooner, Ben Peter.
43:36Come on.
43:37This man got some lace to work on this tub.
43:39Let's have a drink with him.
43:39Yeah?
43:40Yeah, it does.
43:40Come on.
43:58Come on.
44:17Where are you taking me?
44:19I isn't sailing yet.
44:30Are you sure?
44:32A chance for you to see foreign parts.
45:01Travel broadens the mind, they say.
45:16Tell you what, Pete.
45:17These ferries will be bankrupt if you want for our trucks.
45:20Yeah.
45:21I'll do this for unregular.
45:23Fruit machines, you wouldn't catch me up there with those day trippers, I tell you.
45:29I've got everything I need down here.
45:31It's all right as long as you don't take it short.
45:33Come on, let me drink.
45:37Come on, Pete.
45:38Relax, please.
45:56There's a lorry driver on board called Bill Fawcett.
45:58And I think a Dutchman called Peter Vanderbilt.
46:00Could you put out a call for them?
46:01On what authority?
46:02I have to talk to them.
46:05I think I have to tell my father.
46:08I hate my father.
46:10He turned me out, which is why I went backpacking.
46:15Then he left my mother.
46:17But now, now I have to see him.
46:21Well, you'll find your wife soon enough by yourself.
46:24Not as soon as he will.
46:26He's superintendent of police.
46:33Oh, I don't think I feel so good.
46:36Well, don't you start throwing up down here.
46:38Come on, up you come.
46:39That's it, upstairs.
46:40Fresh air, that's what you need.
46:42Come on, up.
46:43Come on, see it, that's it.
46:53That's it, you've been out of the air.
46:54Come on.
46:57Let it all go.
46:59Let it all go.
47:01Bill!
47:06What the hell are you doing here?
47:08She took me from the workshop.
47:10She's looking for you and him.
47:11Come on, get out of here.
47:12Come on, get lost, go.
47:15That was me.
47:15That'd be dark.
47:16I'm sure it was her.
47:17How could she be here, eh?
47:19On the same boat.
47:20I was right.
47:21Come on.
47:22Let me go, Mel.
47:36Come on.
47:51I need you for a look out while I...
47:52Throw him overboard.
47:57He fell.
48:00He's plastered.
48:02He fell from up there.
48:07Well, I don't know who he is.
48:08I guess he's just a lad I gave a lift to.
48:09He's...
48:11He's Dutch, I think.
48:18He's dead.
48:44I've just been told that girl's going to be let off with a suspended sentence.
48:47And what about that bastard Bill?
48:49Manslaughter.
48:51Manslaughter?
48:52It was murder!
48:54Possible to prove.
48:56Besides, he's agreed to name names.
48:58So what you're saying is it's worth killing someone to keep these Asians out of Europe?
49:05We don't make the rules, Fred.
49:12Should have called the police.
49:16See you next time.
49:34He's still there.
49:36See you next time.
