00:00:00I

00:00:40Is it a kind of dream

00:00:47Flogging out of the time

00:00:54Following the river of death down the sea

00:00:58Or is it a dream

00:01:04There's a path along the horizon

00:01:10A strange glow in the sky

00:01:17And nobody seems to know where you go

00:01:21And what does it mean

00:01:25Oh, is it a dream

00:01:32Bright eyes burning like fire

00:01:41Bright eyes

00:01:43How can you close and fail

00:01:50How can the light burn so brightly

00:01:54Suddenly burn so pale

00:01:57Bright eyes

00:02:10Is it a kind of shadow

00:02:17Reaching into the night

00:02:23And nobody ever knows when you go

00:02:28And where do you start

00:02:31Open to the dark

00:02:38Bright eyes burning like fire

00:02:47Bright eyes

00:02:50How can you close and fail

00:02:56How can the light burn so brightly

00:03:00Suddenly burn so pale

00:03:04Bright eyes

00:03:06Bright eyes

00:03:16Got a customer

00:03:17I'm on my lunch

00:03:18Yeah, I can smell that

00:03:19Mine's in five minutes

00:03:20So if I start with the customer now

00:03:22It cuts into my break

00:03:39That's Keith Holligan

00:03:40So?

00:03:41So he murdered his wife

00:03:42Oh, it was manslaughter

00:03:44Judge said she drove him to it

00:03:47Doesn't seem like the strangling time to me

00:03:50Puffy hands

00:03:51Surely we don't have to serve him

00:03:53Everyone needs shoes, Nida

00:03:55How about doing your job?

00:04:14I think I'm going to need the eleven

00:04:17I'm large

00:04:20From a height

00:04:30I'm sure you can't do a discount

00:04:31I'm so sorry, no, we can't

00:04:33I'm just a bit strapped

00:04:34Till the end of the month

00:04:37I can put them aside for you

00:04:40Go on then

00:04:45If you fancy writing down your number

00:04:47I won't mind

00:04:56Go on then

00:05:14Reckon he's into your sort

00:05:26A pathetic display

00:05:27A flailing government

00:05:29Holding on for dear life

00:05:31And it is thanks to Mr. Callahan's government limping on

00:05:35That our nation

00:05:36Has suffered through a winter

00:05:38Of discontent

00:05:39Now, they've promised us a brighter future

00:05:41Yet the fact remains

00:05:43That Labour isn't working

00:05:47The people are young, isn't he?

00:05:49He's good though

00:05:49They haven't just failed nationally

00:05:52But right here in Tipley

00:05:53You only have to look around to see it

00:05:56Rubbish in the streets

00:05:58Crime on the rise

00:06:00The character of your neighbourhood

00:06:03And the threat

00:06:06Bloody right

00:06:06We don't want to end up like Cheatham

00:06:10You hear what he said?

00:06:11He said we don't want to end up like Cheatham

00:06:14Of course we all want change

00:06:16But the right kind

00:06:17So don't just hope for a better future

00:06:22Vote for one

00:06:24Thank you

00:06:25Thank you

00:06:26Thank you very much

00:06:53As the election nears

00:06:54Polls show Mrs. Thatcher's Conservative Party

00:06:57Retains a commanding need

00:06:58Violence erupts as the far-right National Front

00:07:01March through South Pole

00:07:03Causing thousands in damage

00:07:04With over a hundred arrests

00:07:06And five police officers hospitalised

00:07:08U.S. and Soviet nuclear non-proliferation talks

00:07:11Down two places to number six

00:07:14Does your mother know?

00:07:15By ABBA

00:07:15A new entry at five for Paul McCartney and Wings

00:07:17With Goodnight Tonight

00:07:18And at number four

00:07:19Right now here in the studio

00:07:21With the hit brass music

00:07:22It's Boney M

00:07:24There was a certain man

00:07:26In Russia long ago

00:07:28He was big and strong

00:07:30In his eyes flaming glow

00:07:32Once people look at him

00:07:34With terror and the fear

00:07:36But to Moscow Cheeks

00:07:37He was such a lovely dear

00:07:39Raw, raw, Rasputin

00:07:42Lover of the Russian Queen

00:07:43There was a cat that really was gone

00:07:47Raw, raw, Rasputin

00:07:49Russia's greatest love machine

00:07:51It was a shame how he carried on

00:08:40You're dreaming if you think you can pull that off

00:08:42Mr. Duncan wants a word

00:08:46So, Nida, it's nothing major

00:08:48But, erm, I understand you're in the habit of eating your lunch in the stockroom

00:08:53Oh, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine

00:08:54Everybody does it, we don't mind

00:08:55But it's...

00:08:57It's what you're eating

00:09:00You see, most people's food

00:09:01Erm, normal food

00:09:03It doesn't tend to linger

00:09:05Afterwards

00:09:06It's not really fair on your co-workers

00:09:09And there is a chance it could...

00:09:10Well, it could get into the shoe leather

00:09:13So, if you must eat in there

00:09:14Maybe just bring in a sandwich

00:09:15Like a cheese and ham sandwich

00:09:17Like a cheese and ham sandwich

00:09:18Or just a cheese sandwich, you know

00:09:19If you're one of those that doesn't do ham

00:09:22Of course, I'm sorry to have to ask you

00:09:24I'll do sandwiches from now on

00:09:26I think Vicky would be very appreciative

00:09:30As...as will we all

00:09:32The thing is, I did bring a biryani in today

00:09:37I see

00:09:41Well, erm...

00:09:42How about the basement?

00:09:44Yes!

00:09:45Yes, you could use the basement

00:09:46The basement?

00:09:47Mr. Possett himself used to work down there in the early days

00:09:50He didn't like to be disturbed

00:09:51Couldn't be further from civilisation

00:09:57Thank you, Mr. Dawkins

00:10:00Very good, very good

00:10:01Thank you, Anita

00:10:13What?

00:10:30Hello, what do you want?

00:10:33Just taking my lunch break?

00:11:03Mmm

00:11:11Hmm?

00:11:15Hmm?

00:11:18Hmm...

00:11:20Hmm...

00:11:20How about the basement?

00:11:23Your main street?

00:11:28Hmm...

00:11:32I don't know.

00:12:26I don't know.

00:12:29I don't know.

00:13:05Hello.

00:13:13How should we do it?

00:13:14Do I understand?

00:13:16Well, hi, then.

00:13:19Here, in the room.

00:13:26Yeah, hi.

00:13:28So, my name's Garp.

00:13:29I'm a demon.

00:13:30You anointed this talisman with your blood, so now we're bound together, eh?

00:13:33Come on.

00:13:34Bloody hell.

00:13:36Look, I've got a whole introductory speech here.

00:13:41We've got to work together.

00:13:42Can you pick me up?

00:13:45Come on.

00:13:46Pick me up.

00:13:48Come on.

00:13:49Just pick me up.

00:13:51Please.

00:13:54Come on.

00:13:56Come on.

00:13:56I won't do it.

00:13:58I won't do it.

00:13:59Come on.

00:14:06I'll do it.

00:14:06Right, so, as I was saying, you anointed the talisman, and the rules are, you've got to carry out three

00:14:11human sacrifices over the next three days, or else the world's going to end.

00:14:19If you want me to help you, you need to permit me entry.

00:14:25Dost thou permit me entry? Yes or no?

00:14:28This isn't real.

00:14:29You have to say yes. Just say the word yes. Say it.

00:14:32Look, if you say yes, I'll stop. Okay, I'll go away.

00:14:35You'll never hear from me again. Like, this didn't happen.

00:14:37Just say yes. Say it. Say it. Come on, say it. Say it. Say it. Say it. Say it.

00:14:42Yes!

00:15:08Hey, hey, hey, hey, come on. What's the matter?

00:15:12All right, I've got to be honest. I lied about going away.

00:15:17Hang on. Is it this?

00:15:19Yeah, yeah, sorry.

00:15:20My regular appearance is probably a bit much for this realm.

00:15:23Just a sec.

00:15:24Just a sec.

00:15:29This any better for you?

00:15:32I peed into your soul and apparently this is a physical look if I'd appealing.

00:15:36So, maybe you saw this recently and liked it.

00:15:41I don't know. Let me have a look.

00:15:46Wow.

00:15:47How?

00:15:49Uh...

00:15:51Okay. Am I, like, a clown?

00:15:54It's our clowns dressed in your room?

00:15:56I mean, I mean, I can work with it, but...

00:16:01All right.

00:16:04You have got to get over the shock and just talk to me.

00:16:06No, we have got to work together.

00:16:08I'm dreaming.

00:16:10Dream? You're really not, you know?

00:16:13You're not real.

00:16:15You're not real.

00:16:16You're not real.

00:16:17You're not real.

00:16:22You're not real.

00:16:24I, uh...

00:16:25Like I said, we have got to work together.

00:16:27It's blood and bone.

00:16:28You know, you mark the talisman, I don't make the rules.

00:16:30I mean, basically, we need to deliver three sacrifices by Mamus.

00:16:35Uh, that's May Day to you.

00:16:37Or else it's...

00:16:38Oh, it's burning skies time.

00:16:44I sense you need some convincing.

00:16:47Uh...

00:16:47Let me show you how this will play out, all right?

00:16:50What will happen if we don't succeed?

00:16:51You ready?

00:16:53Ready?

00:16:55Three, two, one.

00:17:00You ready?

00:17:02You ready?

00:17:03You ready?

00:17:06You ready?

00:17:07You ready?

00:17:10You ready?

00:17:11So...

00:17:11Basically, this is the sort of thing we're dealing with.

00:17:17Gulching Wall of Flank.

00:17:19Agonizing.

00:17:20Death for all.

00:17:21And so on.

00:17:30Ah!

00:17:33Ah!

00:17:39Ah!

00:17:42Ah!

00:17:45Ah!

00:17:46HE SIGHS

00:17:58See, burning people, they do smell like you'd expect, don't they?

00:18:01Like a burger on a griddle.

00:18:03It's quite nice if you disassociate from it.

00:18:05Mind you, the charred hair really gets stuck in your throat.

00:18:17Hey, to be honest, I don't want the apocalypse to come about any more than you do,

00:18:20so let's stop it happening, you and me.

00:18:22All we have to do is deliver three sacrifices in three days.

00:18:25It's only three killings.

00:18:28Like I said, animals don't count, you have to do humans,

00:18:31and there's got to be a cadence to it.

00:18:32One a day.

00:18:34It's one kill a day.

00:18:36It's... what?

00:18:43That is fewer people than die falling off ladders in the same time period.

00:18:47You'd be less lethal than a ladder.

00:18:49If I talk to you, you're real, so I'm not going to talk to you.

00:18:53Well, we started conversing already, so that's super sale.

00:18:56No, it hasn't.

00:18:56Oh, yes, it has.

00:18:59Don't worry, we're a team. I'm on your side here, you know.

00:19:01Now, come on, let's just kill number one under your belt.

00:19:04Stop racking them up.

00:19:05You can stop it because I am not killing anyone.

00:19:07I don't know why you keep talking to me.

00:19:12It's what I'm here for, right? Moral support.

00:19:15So just hold on to that brick. Let's go fwack someone.

00:19:18What brick?

00:19:19The one in your hand, love.

00:19:26I'm not doing what you say.

00:19:28What's that, love?

00:19:31Oh, yeah. Yeah, he's perfect.

00:19:34There's no witnesses.

00:19:35Talk about beginner's luck.

00:19:37No.

00:19:37One quick bop to the end and you're done.

00:19:40Please, make him stop.

00:19:42Make Q stop.

00:19:50Love, are you all right?

00:19:53I need a doctor.

00:19:55You want me to go and call one?

00:19:56What the hell?

00:19:56If I told you, I'd like to see into this man's soul.

00:19:59And he absolutely deserves to die.

00:20:01Shut up.

00:20:01He's got a daughter. Her name's Laura.

00:20:03She's eight years old.

00:20:05Do you want to know what he does to her?

00:20:07Is it Laura?

00:20:08I don't want to know.

00:20:09Sorry, love. I don't follow.

00:20:10He pays Laura and let all my time visit.

00:20:13Shut up.

00:20:14Is everything okay?

00:20:16Do you want to know how the bastard makes her feel?

00:20:17Get a load of this.

00:20:30She kills herself.

00:20:32Aged 28.

00:20:33Exhausted by the pain and the shame of it.

00:20:37Made me put that down.

00:20:39Mm!

00:20:41Ugh.

00:20:46Guys, I am kuv.

00:20:47No, no, no!

00:20:51No, no!

00:20:51No, no, no!и

00:21:14Yeah, it does take some getting used to, I'll grant you that, but a couple more of those

00:21:19and I'll be out of your hair.

00:21:21Hang on.

00:21:23Er, yeah, yeah, look, see, one line gone, that's one sacrifice registered, two to go, and you've

00:21:29got an old baby to get the next one.

00:21:32Oh, come on, you...

00:21:34You forgot to flush.

00:21:48Sorry to disturb you, sir.

00:21:49What is it, Suze?

00:21:51Er, missing person.

00:21:52Boy or girl?

00:21:53Er, 39-year-old man, er, Tim Simons.

00:21:58No, don't know him.

00:21:59His wife said he didn't come home last night.

00:22:01Yeah, because he's on the piss.

00:22:03It's not even 24 hours yet.

00:22:04I know, but, sir, the thing is, she says his dog came home without him.

00:22:19I suppose we stopped taking pictures of each other.

00:22:27He...

00:22:28That's him.

00:22:32He never stays out.

00:22:35He...

00:22:37Something's happened.

00:22:38I know it.

00:22:39We don't know anything's happened at all.

00:22:43Hello?

00:22:45Who's this?

00:22:47It's okay.

00:22:49It's okay, Laura.

00:22:51This man and this lady are going to help find Daddy.

00:22:56Or it's sick, aren't you, love?

00:23:07How long are you just going to sit there for?

00:23:09You're late for work.

00:23:10You are going to have to go in, you know?

00:23:11You can't have people getting suspicious.

00:23:14You know what I mean?

00:23:14If you don't turn up...

00:23:16Fucking shut up!

00:23:19I killed a man.

00:23:21I've killed someone.

00:23:23Yeah, that was hours ago.

00:23:24I keep feeling the crack of his skull on the brick.

00:23:28I did that.

00:23:31It's your fault.

00:23:33You're not even...

00:23:38I'm crazy.

00:23:41I'm a crazy person.

00:23:43They said Mum was mad.

00:23:45They'll say it about me.

00:23:47But this time they'll be right.

00:23:49They'll be totally bloody right.

00:23:50Hey, look, look.

00:23:51You're not crazy.

00:23:52I'm a murderer.

00:23:53Yeah, but you're not a crazy one.

00:23:57Why is this happening?

00:24:00Look...

00:24:04This is actually my first assignment.

00:24:06It's more of an initiation, really.

00:24:09Sort of earning my wings, so...

00:24:11I mean, I'm new to this too, but...

00:24:14I'm not a bad person.

00:24:15No, no, no.

00:24:16It wouldn't work if you were.

00:24:18It has to be someone corruptible.

00:24:20So, I mean, if you think about it,

00:24:22what's happening here,

00:24:23it actually reflects really well on your character.

00:24:36What?

00:24:37What are you doing?

00:24:38Calling the police.

00:24:39What?

00:24:40Why?

00:24:43So they'll arrest me?

00:24:44Ha.

00:24:45But then you won't be able to do the other sacrifices.

00:24:47Good.

00:24:48And then the apocalypse will happen,

00:24:50and billions will die.

00:24:51I mean, I know, I know.

00:24:52I get it.

00:24:53You don't want the blood of three sacrificial victims on your hands,

00:24:55but if it saves billions...

00:25:07Hello?

00:25:08Emergency services.

00:25:09My service do you require?

00:25:12Hello?

00:25:15Hello?

00:25:16Is anyone there?

00:25:21I'm not a good person.

00:25:22You are a good person.

00:25:25What do I do?

00:25:28Just carry on as usual,

00:25:30so the normals don't get spooked,

00:25:32which means going to work,

00:25:34and while you're dead,

00:25:36we can decide who to kill next.

00:25:54Hello?

00:25:56What's this?

00:25:59You were supposed to be in at nine.

00:26:01I threw up this morning.

00:26:03I thought I might be ill.

00:26:04Oh, don't come near me.

00:26:06I don't want your germs.

00:26:09You look awful.

00:26:13Oh, she's nice.

00:26:15Front runner for the old...

00:26:17I think.

00:26:19Actually, that's still from the till, you know.

00:26:23You've got to pick someone.

00:26:24Shh!

00:26:29God, I do love a little old lady.

00:26:32Eh?

00:26:34Oh, isn't she sweet?

00:26:36She can't stop thinking about the end, though.

00:26:39They can't wait for it to come.

00:26:40You'd be doing her a favour.

00:26:42Shut up.

00:26:42What was that love?

00:26:43Nothing.

00:26:45She dreams of death.

00:26:47Even now.

00:26:48How are those for you?

00:26:49I think they're good.

00:26:49I'll just go and have a little look.

00:26:51Is that all right?

00:26:52Just do it.

00:26:53No-one will miss her.

00:26:54No.

00:26:55Shut up.

00:26:55She's nearly dead already.

00:26:59Very nice.

00:27:02Sir?

00:27:06Sir?

00:27:08Yeah?

00:27:09They said you were in a year.

00:27:11That was nice of them.

00:27:14Can you wait?

00:27:15It's Tim Simons.

00:27:17Tender Buzzy.

00:27:19He has, sir.

00:27:20But he's dead.

00:27:27Someone's clobbered him, sir.

00:27:29So they have.

00:27:36So, come on.

00:27:37What time do you finish?

00:27:38Depends what time you want to start.

00:27:42Maybe I won't want to stop.

00:27:48Yeah.

00:27:54How about this handsome fucker?

00:27:55Eh?

00:27:55God's gift.

00:27:56Till he loses his hair at 32 and spends the next 29 years taking her out in his missus.

00:28:04Stop showing me the stuff.

00:28:05Please.

00:28:06Missus won't be her.

00:28:07By the way.

00:28:07She never marries.

00:28:08Very sad.

00:28:09Well, look.

00:28:09It's half five already.

00:28:10You've got to get the next one in by midnight.

00:28:12You have to pick someone.

00:28:14On your last trip, did you discover what the Earth people eat?

00:28:19They eat a great many of these.

00:28:21They fill them with their little knives.

00:28:27Oh, fuck's sake.

00:28:29Do you want the apocalypse happening?

00:28:30You're in the way.

00:28:37Nuclear tensions rise.

00:28:39Hawks break down.

00:28:40And US and Soviet jets...

00:28:41I was watching that.

00:28:43Both superpowers possess a growing arsenal of atomic weaponry.

00:28:46Yet given the horrific devastation any nuclear exchange would cause...

00:28:52You see that?

00:28:54It's manifesting.

00:28:56Do you understand?

00:28:57This is the full mistaking.

00:28:58This is real.

00:28:59You don't have much time.

00:29:01You're the only one who can stop it.

00:29:02But under these scenes of destruction...

00:29:05No.

00:29:06No.

00:29:08Don't take your piss, Nader.

00:29:18You know what?

00:29:18You're not a knife person.

00:29:20Way too grabby.

00:29:21Cut your hands all off.

00:29:22Yeah.

00:29:23Oh, I know.

00:29:23I know.

00:29:24Down there.

00:29:28Yeah.

00:29:30That's you.

00:29:31You're a basher.

00:29:32I can't wait.

00:29:33We've had to practice now.

00:29:34It'll be way easier this time.

00:29:36Dutch courage.

00:29:37Eh?

00:29:38That's what you need.

00:29:38Where do you keep your booze?

00:29:40I don't drink.

00:29:41Yeah, shit.

00:29:42Yeah.

00:29:44Uh...

00:29:46But do you want a drink?

00:29:50Tell me why.

00:29:52I don't like Mondays.

00:29:54Tell me why.

00:29:55I don't like Mondays.

00:29:58Tell me why.

00:29:58I don't like Mondays.

00:30:01I don't like Mondays.

00:30:02Tell me why.

00:30:15I don't like Mondays.

00:30:17Um, have...

00:30:20Triple scotch, please.

00:30:21Easy, still got work to do.

00:30:24You want ice with that?

00:30:25Do people have it with ice?

00:30:27Generally.

00:30:29Okay, then.

00:30:31Actually, make it two triple scotches, thank you.

00:30:33You don't have to get one for me.

00:30:35I didn't.

00:30:58Right, let's get cracking.

00:31:00See anyone tasty.

00:31:04Oh, I see him.

00:31:06He's perfect. Piece of work, that one.

00:31:07String of burglaries. Mostly targets the elderly.

00:31:12What do you reckon?

00:31:15No?

00:31:15Uh-uh.

00:31:17Okay.

00:31:18Uh...

00:31:19Oh, you see how it depends.

00:31:21Right, she went on holiday when she was 12 years old

00:31:23and saw her sister drown in a swimming pool.

00:31:27She could have pulled her out, but she just stood there.

00:31:30And watched.

00:31:33Fucking hell.

00:31:35You could be making this up.

00:31:44Oh, yeah, okay.

00:31:45See him.

00:31:46About three years ago, he thought his wife was cheating on him.

00:31:49So he...

00:31:49Strangled her in the bath.

00:31:51Are you familiar with his work?

00:31:54Keith Holligan.

00:31:55Keith Holligan.

00:31:56Funny, it wasn't premeditated.

00:31:58But he did have a hurdle and he did it, so...

00:32:02Hit me with your rhythm stick.

00:32:05Hit me.

00:32:06Hit me.

00:32:07Hit me.

00:32:07That is good, say.

00:32:08Fantastic.

00:32:09Hit me.

00:32:10Hit me.

00:32:11Hit me with your rhythm stick.

00:32:14It's nice to be a lunatic.

00:32:16Hit me.

00:32:17Hit me.

00:32:18Hey.

00:32:19Hey.

00:32:20Hey.

00:32:21Hey.

00:32:22I think we have a contender.

00:32:30No, you can't go far.

00:32:31Come on.

00:32:32Hit me.

00:32:33Hit me.

00:32:34Hit me.

00:32:36Hit me.

00:32:48Hit me.

00:33:05Perfect location.

00:33:06There are no witnesses.

00:33:08You should rush him.

00:33:13You can look.

00:33:17You just follow me from pub.

00:33:23Well, you're a dark horse, aren't you?

00:33:26I've read about girls like you.

00:33:29I'm just round corner.

00:33:30You know what?

00:33:31I'm on earth even better.

00:33:33Come on.

00:33:35Not much sense in being shy now.

00:33:58It looks like he wipes his arse with his house.

00:34:06Erm...

00:34:06Do you want to do it here, or...?

00:34:13Erm...

00:34:14Maybe bedroom's better?

00:34:17I think the bedroom.

00:34:18Bedroom.

00:34:19Right.

00:34:30Come on.

00:34:31Don't be frightened.

00:34:40It's almost midnight.

00:34:41You're cutting it fine.

00:34:43Shut the fuck up, you.

00:34:43What was that?

00:34:46Can't wait to fuck you.

00:34:49Heh.

00:34:53Fucking hell.

00:35:07S-s-sorry.

00:35:09It's a bit...

00:35:11Sorry.

00:35:21You're done.

00:35:23You're fucking done.

00:35:26Were you done?

00:35:28Don't leave my heart beautiful away.

00:35:33When I need love

00:35:36I need love, I hold out my hand and I touch love, I never knew there was so much love,

00:35:50keeping me warm night and day.

00:35:56Tell you what, you get comfy, I'll just go and have a wash down there first.

00:36:06It's off your mind.

00:36:08But you know I won't be traveling forever.

00:36:16It's cold out, cold out.

00:36:19Do what I do when I need you.

00:36:25I just close my eyes and I'm with you.

00:36:32Max, you're going to shag him, aren't you?

00:36:34I was just checking, I was just checking.

00:36:38It is 11.54, six minutes left since you asked.

00:36:42So?

00:36:44Just fucking come on.

00:36:45It's not easy when the road is a driver.

00:36:52Honey, that's a heavy load that we bear.

00:37:13You're all going to hit me with that.

00:37:24Okay then.

00:37:31I always knew something would happen.

00:37:34ever since I did it.

00:37:37I've had dreams.

00:37:44This is what I deserve.

00:37:48I honestly did love her.

00:37:55I think...

00:38:04I wasn't a bad husband.

00:38:11You're right here by my side.

00:38:18You're right here by my side.

00:38:30Yes!

00:38:32I need more four minutes to spare.

00:38:47You can't have that lying around.

00:39:06Get out before he sees you.

00:39:08Get out.

00:39:33Pete?

00:39:37Who are you?

00:39:40No, no witnesses.

00:39:42He's got to go.

00:39:44Get out!

00:39:45I can't kill another one.

00:39:46I haven't seen you now.

00:39:46You have to kill him.

00:39:48Get out of the house!

00:39:50Get away!

00:39:51Do it!

00:39:52It's him or you!

00:39:54Please, please, please.

00:39:55Please, just get out of here.

00:39:57Please, please.

00:39:58Please, please.

00:39:59Please, please.

00:40:10Please, please.

00:40:11Please.

00:40:12Oh, my God.

00:40:51I'm so sorry.

00:40:56I'm so sorry.

00:41:03I'm so sorry.

00:41:30Come on.

00:41:31Let's go.

00:41:48Who was she?

00:41:51That'd be Keith's brother, Chris.

00:41:55What was he like?

00:41:59You know, Stoff.

00:42:02Was he a good person or a bad person?

00:42:08He was...

00:42:10ordinary.

00:42:12I know.

00:42:13I know.

00:42:14I know.

00:42:14It's not what you want to hear.

00:42:15I've got any of that.

00:42:18What's done is done.

00:42:21And on the plus side, you've just got two tonight.

00:42:25That one a day is just a minimum of two.

00:42:28That'll get you over the line.

00:42:29You've done it.

00:42:30Hey, look.

00:42:32See?

00:42:32It'll, um...

00:42:38It...

00:42:39Just...

00:42:40Just a two sakes.

00:42:52Hi there.

00:42:53Gap and misfires.

00:42:54Yep.

00:42:56All right, yeah, so, uh, I've got a talisman circa 1926,

00:42:59uh, but the room face has failed to register one of the sacrifices.

00:43:04Yeah, yeah, two kills, but only one's been recorded.

00:43:08Right.

00:43:10I mean, yeah, but...

00:43:16What?

00:43:16We...

00:43:17We...

00:43:17What?

00:43:18We can't just...

00:43:21No.

00:43:23Yeah, yeah, I'll get it, I'll get it.

00:43:37Keith didn't care.

00:43:39What?

00:43:41Why?

00:43:42He's a murderer.

00:43:43Makes him ineligible.

00:43:44That's what they're saying.

00:43:45But we've been picking people who deserve it.

00:43:47I mean, you're not strictly supposed to do it that way.

00:43:49I just...

00:43:50I thought you'd find it easier.

00:43:51I mean, the...

00:43:52The first bloke, the one by the canal,

00:43:54they'd given us that one,

00:43:55because he'd never actually killed anybody.

00:43:58What about what he did to his daughter?

00:43:59You said she kills herself for 28, thanks to him.

00:44:02Yeah, but that's in the future.

00:44:05I'm sorry.

00:44:06Look, basically, anyone who's really been directly responsible

00:44:09for the death of another human being,

00:44:11they're off limits.

00:44:13I mean, once that's happened,

00:44:14as far as my boss is concerned,

00:44:16they're playing for the home team.

00:44:18You know,

00:44:20we're actually lucky

00:44:21that Keith's brother turned up

00:44:22just before midnight.

00:44:24It wouldn't have been Armageddon otherwise.

00:44:29Look,

00:44:30you did well.

00:44:35Oh, absolutely gone.

00:44:37Fuck yourself.

00:44:39Right up a tree!

00:44:42This is all right for you.

00:44:43It isn't.

00:44:44No blood on your hands.

00:44:44You're just watching.

00:44:46Light entertainment.

00:44:47If the apocalypse does come,

00:44:49you'll have a big fun finale.

00:44:50That would be upending the whole place there.

00:44:52Yeah, it's frowned upon.

00:44:53You get told off.

00:44:54If I fail, my initiation...

00:44:56I'm kicked out of demon school.

00:44:58Boo-hoo.

00:44:58Well, I cast out.

00:45:00Whatever.

00:45:02Cast out into a boundless cosmic void.

00:45:07Indempt to spend eternity

00:45:08in a vacuum of infinite nothingness.

00:45:12Absence of matter, of time,

00:45:14space, light, and sand.

00:45:17I will endure a profound, palpable,

00:45:22and ever-present lack of existence.

00:45:24Alone, in perpetuity, forevermore.

00:45:37Sounds like my life.

00:45:43To be honest, I'm scared.

00:46:04So, one more victim, then?

00:46:07Yeah.

00:46:07Anything for it.

00:46:09I can't be doing a total innocent.

00:46:11It's just murders we have to avoid.

00:46:12You mean people like me.

00:46:16My whole life,

00:46:17I never wished harm on anyone.

00:46:22I didn't.

00:46:26I mean, you couldn't have summoned me

00:46:27for my trial if you hadn't.

00:46:29Like, you had to be corruptible,

00:46:31not beyond corruption.

00:46:35You know what?

00:46:36You must have had some dark thoughts inside you

00:46:38when you touched the talisman.

00:46:40There's no shame in it.

00:46:42Now, go on.

00:46:42Who pissed you off?

00:47:05So, I'm thinking,

00:47:06just lure her down to the basement

00:47:07on some pretense,

00:47:09clock her on the stairwell,

00:47:10just say she lost the step and fell.

00:47:12Snap out of it.

00:47:13You can deal with a kid out there.

00:47:15Needs black shoes for a funeral.

00:47:17They pulled his head out of the canal.

00:47:19I'd do it myself, but...

00:47:21She gives me the willies.

00:47:37No, she's, she's not in mourning.

00:47:40I mean, she's, she's not not mourning.

00:47:43Happy it's finished.

00:47:45Sad he's dead.

00:47:48But, it has finished.

00:47:50You, you spared her another five years of it.

00:47:53A lifetime of therapy, but a lifetime.

00:47:56Nonetheless, she's a mum at 29,

00:48:00a nan at 57.

00:48:03Eh?

00:48:04I just thought you'd like to know.

00:48:13It's a good fit.

00:48:15And, of course, the final touch.

00:48:17Colin, really, you, you, you...

00:48:19No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:48:19I insist, too late.

00:48:21Very well.

00:48:21Here we are in footwear.

00:48:24This is Mr. Michael Smart.

00:48:26You probably recognise him.

00:48:28He's all set to be our next MP.

00:48:29Well, with a little luck and a following wind.

00:48:33Michael's father and I were at school together.

00:48:35Fuck me.

00:48:36He's been using my weekend cottage

00:48:37as a base of operations.

00:48:39You can tell he's ex-military.

00:48:41Michael's got a big speech tonight at the town hall.

00:48:44Promised him a new suit and new shoes.

00:48:46The finest that Possitz has to offer on the house.

00:48:50I've already told him he'll go out of business at this rate.

00:48:55Fuck me some more.

00:48:56Well, I said I'd leave you in the hands

00:48:58of our finest assistants, so, um, Vicky.

00:49:02If you could take care of Michael,

00:49:03Michael, enjoy Vicky's more than capable hands.

00:49:07Hey, steady on there.

00:49:08Steady on.

00:49:10I'll walk however you want.

00:49:13Christ's sake.

00:49:14There's boxes all over the floor.

00:49:16Don't you pick up your bloody mess.

00:49:22I'm thinking car park later.

00:49:24Wait till he comes out.

00:49:25Reverse into him.

00:49:27Do you know what I mean?

00:49:27Pin him up against the wall.

00:49:28Keep the pedal down till you hear a stomach.

00:49:30Boop.

00:49:31Eh?

00:49:32What do you think?

00:49:35What?

00:49:36What?

00:49:41I hope I have your vote this week.

00:49:43Afraid not.

00:49:44National front for me.

00:49:45Oh.

00:49:47Why is that?

00:49:48Don't like how things are changing round here.

00:49:51Hmm.

00:49:52My aunt.

00:49:53She's been in Cheatham 20 years.

00:49:56Now she's got them living either side.

00:49:58That's us next.

00:49:59We've not got a pot to piss in.

00:50:01So why should we share with them who don't belong?

00:50:04You think they see National Front will help?

00:50:07I think they'll stand up for us.

00:50:09Says so, right in the front of their leaflet.

00:50:11But they won't get elected.

00:50:14They might.

00:50:15They're too avert.

00:50:16But people feel it's, um, bad manners.

00:50:24You know why I don't print stop immigration in gigantic letters on my campaign literature?

00:50:31Because look at me.

00:50:36Look at me.

00:50:48You know what I stand for.

00:50:59So, do I have your vote?

00:51:05Yes, sir.

00:51:09Good girl.

00:51:12So, who are you going to kill?

00:51:14Your boss or Vicky?

00:51:15You haven't got long.

00:51:16What's his future?

00:51:17Michael Smart?

00:51:18Uh, it's...

00:51:19Can you show me his future?

00:51:20I mean, yeah, but let's not...

00:51:21Then show me right now.

00:51:24Or I'll run out there.

00:51:25Confess to everything.

00:51:27And then it's over.

00:51:28And then you're fucked.

00:51:33Show me.

00:51:4016,472 people.

00:51:41They're not as different, they're inferior.

00:51:42Having been expelled from the Tories, Michael Smart launched his new Britannia party.

00:51:46The rivers of blood are here.

00:51:48Reclaim your power.

00:51:49The land is powers.

00:51:51In a shock victory, Britain has a new prime minister.

00:51:54Colonies traitors.

00:51:56I've seen what's coming.

00:51:57Rising seas.

00:51:58Burning sky.

00:51:59We are at war.

00:52:11He's fucking a Satan.

00:52:12No, he's not one of us.

00:52:13Not literally.

00:52:15I mean, they do like him.

00:52:16They're fans of his work, you might say.

00:52:18He's got to go.

00:52:20He's next to me.

00:52:21Oh, uh, they are not going to like that.

00:52:23Just avoid murderers.

00:52:24You said that was the one rule.

00:52:26Right, but he's responsible for an impressive number of really juicy deaths, so...

00:52:29Not yet, he isn't.

00:52:30Right, but he beats his wife.

00:52:34Hasn't killed her, though, has he?

00:52:35I mean, uh...

00:52:37I mean, he killed a dog with a rock when he was 12.

00:52:40And it also don't count.

00:52:40That was one of the first things you said.

00:52:44Does Michael Smart qualify or not?

00:52:46I technically think, yeah, but...

00:52:47Then I choose Michael Smart.

00:52:49He's the one and that's that.

00:52:50Honestly, they are not going to like it.

00:52:52But it's within the rules that they can lump it.

00:52:56It's him.

00:52:57Or no one.

00:52:59I mean it.

00:53:02Do you want to fail your initiation?

00:53:05Hmm?

00:53:08He wants to try an 11.

00:53:13Hurry up.

00:53:14It's gone closing time.

00:53:15Still's there. Do it yourself.

00:53:16Uh...

00:53:17Freeze! I'm Ma Baker.

00:53:19Put your hands in the air.

00:53:20Give me all your money.

00:53:25This is the story of Ma Baker.

00:53:28The meanest cat from old Chicago town.

00:53:39She was the meanest cat.

00:53:41Oh, she was really tough.

00:53:43She left the house but flat.

00:53:45She wasn't tough enough.

00:53:47She took her boys along.

00:53:49But they were mean and strong.

00:53:51Ma-ma-ma-ma.

00:53:52Ma Baker.

00:53:53She tore the poor son.

00:53:54Ma-ma-ma-ma.

00:53:55Ma Baker.

00:53:57To handle their guns.

00:53:58Ma-ma-ma-ma.

00:53:59Ma Baker.

00:54:00She never could cry.

00:54:02Ma-ma-ma-ma.

00:54:03Ma Baker.

00:54:04But she knew how to die.

00:54:09You've changed.

00:54:33No sign of forced entry.

00:54:38Could have been a fight between them.

00:54:40What a hell of a fight.

00:54:41Well, we know Keith was no angel for sure.

00:54:44Hmm.

00:54:47Neavarlo turned that on.

00:54:49I don't think so.

00:55:01Keith Holligan.

00:55:02Hiya, we were in last night.

00:55:04He's in most nights.

00:55:05Anything unusual about him?

00:55:07Well, he killed his wife.

00:55:10I mean, last night?

00:55:11Was he behaving differently?

00:55:13Just his usual self, such as he is.

00:55:15Sat on his perch, dragging his pints out.

00:55:17Left around closing time.

00:55:18You won't follow him out?

00:55:19Well, that's all.

00:55:22Well, thanks for your time, Bob.

00:55:26There were one thing last night.

00:55:28I mean, she didn't speak to Keith.

00:55:30Who didn't speak to Keith?

00:55:31This Indian lass.

00:55:32Never been in before.

00:55:34Drank two triple scotches by herself.

00:55:36We don't get many of them in here, let alone ordering whiskey.

00:55:38Can you describe her?

00:55:39Yeah, Indian.

00:55:41You mentioned that.

00:55:42It's all that stood out.

00:55:43Bit shorter than you, maybe.

00:55:45Julie, did you see her?

00:55:47What's that over there?

00:55:49I saw her talking to herself.

00:55:50Talking to herself?

00:55:52Sort of muttering.

00:55:55I've seen her in town.

00:55:57Works in shoes at Possets.

00:56:08Cheers, Bob.

00:56:10After Smart's finished his speech at the town hall, he's got to head for the cottage, which

00:56:14is here.

00:56:15So, whichever way he goes, he's out in the country.

00:56:18So, I'm thinking, I wait outside the hall in the car, I follow him along the way.

00:56:22What if he's not alone?

00:56:23Is he going to be alone?

00:56:24You tell me.

00:56:26Well, yeah, but...

00:56:27Well, then all I have to do is...

00:56:36Some people, eh?

00:56:39I'm going to paint over it.

00:56:42Need a hook?

00:56:44I'm just making some routine inquiries.

00:56:47Do you mind if I have a word?

00:56:48Yeah, sure.

00:56:49I mean, yes.

00:56:53Inside?

00:56:54And follow him in, and then kill him.

00:57:00Yeah.

00:57:09Do you like a cup of tea?

00:57:10Oh, no need.

00:57:11I won't keep you.

00:57:12Like I say, it's just routine.

00:57:16Okay.

00:57:19You were in the pub last night.

00:57:21The Three Crowns.

00:57:26Yeah.

00:57:27I was.

00:57:29Regular, are you?

00:57:30I wouldn't say that.

00:57:31How often are you in there, then?

00:57:33To be honest, last night was the first time.

00:57:36First time?

00:57:38God, it's just around the corner, isn't it?

00:57:40Well, I don't drink.

00:57:42Not usually.

00:57:44But you did last night.

00:57:48Yesterday was Mum's birthday.

00:57:53She's not with us anymore.

00:57:55You know, it's not.

00:57:57Not easy.

00:58:00No.

00:58:04And I'm not meant to drink.

00:58:06I don't have it in the house or anything, but...

00:58:13I'm not proud of myself.

00:58:15I'm not here to judge.

00:58:17We all need to let off steam every now and then.

00:58:28What's all this about, anyway?

00:58:30You've probably heard about Keith and Chris.

00:58:32Oligon.

00:58:34Who?

00:58:35Oligon's.

00:58:36Keith and Chris.

00:58:37I've not heard of them, I'm afraid.

00:58:42Keith was actually in the Three Crowns last night.

00:58:45Did you see him?

00:58:48Maybe.

00:58:49I wouldn't know him.

00:58:53I only ask because...

00:58:57Looks like you served him at work a few days ago.

00:59:02Did I?

00:59:04Those are your initials, aren't they?

00:59:07What's just served him, then?

00:59:11We get so many in the door.

00:59:13To be honest, by the end of the day, I hardly recognise myself.

00:59:19So you didn't see him?

00:59:22I certainly didn't notice him.

00:59:32So sorry I wasn't more help.

00:59:34Well, if anything does come to you, please let us know.

00:59:41Well, you're a total fucking liar, aren't you?

00:59:43I'm impressed.

00:59:44He didn't buy that.

00:59:46Let's hurry, then.

00:59:48Smart, I'll be finishing his speech.

01:00:09That cop is following us.

01:00:12That really would be an easy kill.

01:00:14He was going to have a heart attack next year anyway.

01:00:16It's not like he has any family.

01:00:18No one's going to miss him.

01:00:20Constantly!

01:00:27And together with the threat to freedom, there is a sense of helplessness.

01:00:32A sense that our once great nation has fallen behind, lost its way, lost its identity.

01:00:42But it is not too late.

01:00:45And we are not helpless.

01:00:47This election may decide our fate, but that fate is ours to decide.

01:00:53So don't just hope for a better future.

01:00:56Vote for one!

01:01:07Fantastic.

01:01:08Fantastic.

01:01:09Great night.

01:01:10Oh, thank Karen for the quiche.

01:01:12Great speech.

01:01:13Good luck.

01:01:14You've got a good feeling about it.

01:01:16I do hope so.

01:01:17Well, off for my beauty sleep.

01:01:19Oh, of course.

01:01:19Fantastic.付近

01:01:22Thank you

01:01:22for another day. Thank you.

01:01:28putting on fire on the ride. Thank you.

01:01:51Bloody hell, you ought to love.

01:02:31Bollocks.

01:02:36Bollocks.

01:02:42You know, it's not too late to just find someone else.

01:02:45Oh, shut up!

01:02:46I'm just saying, it would be much easier for me if you just find someone else's...

01:02:49If you're not gonna help, then piss off.

01:02:53I mean it.

01:02:57Fine.

01:03:19That's where I'm coming from.

01:03:21Bollocks.

01:03:33Bollocks.

01:03:34Bollocks.

01:03:36Bollocks.

01:03:37Bollocks.

01:03:39Bollocks.

01:03:43Bollocks.

01:03:46Bollocks.

01:03:47Bollocks.

01:03:50Bollocks.

01:04:03Oh, shit.

01:04:22What bloody hell are you doing?

01:04:26Come on.

01:04:28Come on, help me then.

01:04:34Please.

01:04:41Oh, shit.

01:04:46Police!

01:04:47Stop!

01:04:48I say stop!

01:04:51Bloody animal.

01:04:53She's trying to really kill me.

01:04:57Put it down.

01:04:59I have to do it.

01:05:01It's not right.

01:05:03You know it's not.

01:05:09You were a good man.

01:05:11I don't know, love.

01:05:13I hope so.

01:05:17Put it down.

01:05:20Love.

01:05:21Put it down.

01:05:23If I don't do this by midnight,

01:05:26there'll be a war.

01:05:29Fire.

01:05:31Fire everywhere.

01:05:38We'll deal with her if it comes to her.

01:05:43Put it down.

01:05:44Put it down.

01:05:51Carp.

01:05:56Carp, I'm sorry.

01:05:57Carp!

01:06:00I'm sorry.

01:06:03I don't...

01:06:04I'm sorry.

01:06:07Okay.

01:06:11Okay.

01:06:25Nida, you're saying you're only targeting people who've done something wrong?

01:06:30Mm-hmm.

01:06:31Um, except that man, um, Chris, he just turned up.

01:06:38And each time you sacrificed someone, it got registered on the talisman, is that right?

01:06:45But they said Keith didn't count.

01:06:49Which wasn't fair.

01:06:51This was in your jacket pocket.

01:06:54This is a talisman, yeah?

01:07:01It's gone normal now.

01:07:04Before it, before it had shapes on it that sort of, sort of changed when you looked at it.

01:07:09And the demon who told you to do all this, he first brought you through that talisman?

01:07:16Just for a moment.

01:07:17I could only hear him to start with. Then he was actually in the room.

01:07:20And what did he look like?

01:07:22Like a monster at first.

01:07:24Then he turned into the man from Boney M.

01:07:28The man from Boney M?

01:07:31Who does the dancing?

01:07:42Okay.

01:07:45So, the man from Boney M tells you...

01:07:48His name's Garp.

01:07:49Sorry.

01:07:50Garp.

01:07:51Tells you there'll be a nuclear war if you don't kill three people before May Day.

01:07:57He didn't just tell me.

01:08:01He showed me what it'd be like.

01:08:05I felt the flames.

01:08:09I smelled people burning.

01:08:17Not long now.

01:08:21Tried to stop it.

01:08:24Honest, I did.

01:08:46I did.

01:08:48I did.

01:08:50I did.

01:09:05Her mind's gone, that's for sure.

01:09:08Certainly what the lawyers say.

01:09:10I'm mad, I feel sorry for her.

01:09:13Suze, there's three men dead.

01:09:15So, no matter how much sympathy you might muster for a personal situation...

01:09:19This family's mourning...

01:09:20You hear that?

01:09:25You hear that?

01:09:47Leila?

01:09:49Evening home.

01:09:55I failed.

01:09:57Yeah, well, me too.

01:09:58So, that's that.

01:10:01Just got word they are casting me out.

01:10:03Eternal oblivion.

01:10:07I'm so sorry.

01:10:13Do you want to come with me?

01:10:17What?

01:10:18Well, that's where I've been.

01:10:20Checking the small print.

01:10:21The rules don't cover it.

01:10:22It's not a new poll, apparently.

01:10:25They don't say anything about a human companion.

01:10:29So, it could come with.

01:10:35Into eternal oblivion.

01:10:37I don't know.

01:10:38It's much less than that.

01:10:40It's with me.

01:10:48I'll get back home.

01:10:58I'll get back home.

01:11:05I'm sorry.

01:11:10I'm sorry.

01:11:15I'm sorry.

01:11:18I'm a horizon

01:11:21A strange glow in the sky

01:11:28And nobody seems to know where you go

01:11:32Then what does it mean?

01:11:37Oh, is it a dream?
