1
00:00:03,430 --> 00:00:06,688
A daughter I don't know about?
Where is she?

2
00:00:06,713 --> 00:00:07,895
Not ready to meet you yet.

3
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,137
A newspaper accused you of profiting
from your time in government.

4
00:00:11,162 --> 00:00:12,033
Is there anything else?

5
00:00:12,034 --> 00:00:15,395
Peter Laurence was in
Washington at a dirty think tank

6
00:00:15,420 --> 00:00:17,989
called British American,
selling off the NHS.

7
00:00:18,014 --> 00:00:20,446
I'd like you to take over
at the Ministry of Justice.

8
00:00:20,447 --> 00:00:21,726
Justice?

9
00:00:21,727 --> 00:00:24,286
Unless, of course,
there's a reason why you shouldn't.

10
00:00:24,287 --> 00:00:25,443
No reason.

11
00:00:25,444 --> 00:00:27,550
I'm back on.
I'm going to Washington.

12
00:00:27,551 --> 00:00:32,350
I'm going to get the bastard.

13
00:00:32,351 --> 00:00:34,718
The Minister is ready
to say a few words.

14
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:37,278
Good morning.

15
00:00:37,279 --> 00:00:39,843
Most are of you will know
that I've only just been made

16
00:00:39,844 --> 00:00:42,603
Minister of Justice, but I wanted
to come down to Shephill

17
00:00:42,604 --> 00:00:45,918
as soon as possible because
I know how important this is.

18
00:00:45,919 --> 00:00:49,246
First, I want, unequivocally,
to thank the emergency services

19
00:00:49,247 --> 00:00:51,753
for their brilliant handling
of the situation.

20
00:00:51,778 --> 00:00:55,018
Things were bad, but they might
have been a great deal worse.

21
00:00:55,019 --> 00:00:59,045
I mean no disrespect
to any of my predecessors,

22
00:00:59,046 --> 00:01:02,578
but the time has come
for a totally new approach.

23
00:01:02,579 --> 00:01:05,957
We are the European champions
at locking people up.

24
00:01:05,958 --> 00:01:07,877
We look up more than anyone else.

25
00:01:07,878 --> 00:01:09,477
Don't you believe in locking people up?

26
00:01:09,478 --> 00:01:12,898
Someone should be asking
the question, why are we wasting

27
00:01:12,899 --> 00:01:16,138
so much public money
on a policy that's not working?

28
00:01:16,139 --> 00:01:17,938
Of putting so many people in prison,

29
00:01:17,939 --> 00:01:19,781
in particular,
so many women in prison.

30
00:01:19,782 --> 00:01:22,213
It looks like you're saying this
violence is going to be rewarded?

31
00:01:22,214 --> 00:01:25,258
No, I'm saying that
I'm a new minister, and I will be

32
00:01:25,259 --> 00:01:28,498
looking at all the department's
policies with an objective eye.

33
00:01:28,499 --> 00:01:30,725
I've come to Justice.

34
00:01:30,726 --> 00:01:32,938
Let there be no mistake.

35
00:01:32,939 --> 00:01:35,781
I am going to shake things up.

36
00:01:35,782 --> 00:01:39,058
Justice deserves that.

37
00:01:39,059 --> 00:01:41,098
All right. Thank you, everybody.

38
00:01:41,099 --> 00:01:42,658
Thank you so much. Thank you.

39
00:01:51,620 --> 00:01:54,753
CREDITS

40
00:02:43,685 --> 00:02:49,509
Detail.

41
00:02:49,510 --> 00:02:50,818
Well?

42
00:02:50,819 --> 00:02:55,858
Are you going to tell us
how this happened?

43
00:02:55,859 --> 00:02:58,021
- Who planned it?
- Nobody planned it.

44
00:02:58,022 --> 00:02:59,578
That isn't true.

45
00:02:59,579 --> 00:03:02,578
- You talk to Andrea every day.
- I talk to a lot of women.

46
00:03:02,579 --> 00:03:04,165
There's strength in solidarity.

47
00:03:04,166 --> 00:03:06,213
Solidarity? Wake up, Rose.

48
00:03:06,214 --> 00:03:08,261
You're not in a trade union here.

49
00:03:08,262 --> 00:03:10,309
It's not a protest movement,
it's a prison.

50
00:03:10,310 --> 00:03:12,741
But we still enjoy
basic human rights.

51
00:03:12,742 --> 00:03:15,178
You're the smartest prisoner
in Shephill. I refuse to believe

52
00:03:15,179 --> 00:03:17,541
anything significant happens here
without your participation.

53
00:03:17,542 --> 00:03:19,269
Well, it doesn't matter
what you believe.

54
00:03:19,270 --> 00:03:21,573
- It matters what you can prove.
- We've been through the video.

55
00:03:21,574 --> 00:03:23,173
Then you know
I didn't take any part.

56
00:03:23,174 --> 00:03:24,837
You threw a sweatshirt over a camera.

57
00:03:24,838 --> 00:03:26,757
We've got a screen grab.

58
00:03:26,758 --> 00:03:28,741
I find it hard to believe
that you would've done that

59
00:03:28,742 --> 00:03:30,898
- if you weren't a ringleader.
- I wasn't a ringleader.

60
00:03:30,899 --> 00:03:34,053
The final bill for the damage could
be hundreds of thousands of pounds.

61
00:03:34,054 --> 00:03:36,298
I'm sure Parallax can take it.

62
00:03:36,299 --> 00:03:38,789
Did you see the dividend
they just paid shareholders?

63
00:03:38,790 --> 00:03:40,773
It was in the Financial Times.

64
00:03:40,774 --> 00:03:42,629
It was on Tuesday, I think.

65
00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:44,818
You've made the point - you're clever.

66
00:03:44,819 --> 00:03:46,858
Yeah, I'm a good deal cleverer
than Parallax.

67
00:03:46,859 --> 00:03:49,157
They just told the government
they could run their prisons

68
00:03:49,158 --> 00:03:51,298
- at half price.
- This prison is run efficiently.

69
00:03:51,299 --> 00:03:53,338
You must be worried
about your own job.

70
00:03:53,339 --> 00:03:55,749
Do you have anything else
to fall back on?

71
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:58,629
Anything else in the skill set?

72
00:03:58,630 --> 00:04:01,258
The director wants you to confirm
who was behind the riot.

73
00:04:01,259 --> 00:04:04,389
I'll only testify
to a public inquiry. Judge-led.

74
00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:05,733
That isn't going to happen.

75
00:04:05,734 --> 00:04:07,738
That's not
what the Justice Minister said.

76
00:04:07,739 --> 00:04:09,573
An internal inquiry, that's it.

77
00:04:09,574 --> 00:04:12,069
Inquiring into your own failings?

78
00:04:12,070 --> 00:04:13,669
Nah, you won't get away with that.

79
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:15,461
You are smart.

80
00:04:15,462 --> 00:04:17,701
And your friend, Steff...

81
00:04:17,702 --> 00:04:18,965
isn't so smart.

82
00:04:25,637 --> 00:04:26,916
Please sit down.

83
00:04:32,613 --> 00:04:34,149
Steff...

84
00:04:34,150 --> 00:04:36,778
You did violence to a guard who had
to receive hospital treatment.

85
00:04:36,779 --> 00:04:38,501
No, that was just an accident.

86
00:04:38,502 --> 00:04:40,997
She's ready to bring
criminal charges.

87
00:04:40,998 --> 00:04:43,429
That will see you
back in Crown Court.

88
00:04:43,430 --> 00:04:47,141
You could be in this prison
for a very long time.

89
00:04:47,142 --> 00:04:49,618
We want to ask you, Steff.

90
00:04:49,619 --> 00:04:50,981
You had a visitor last week.

91
00:04:50,982 --> 00:04:53,221
I don't want to talk about it.
It's private.

92
00:04:53,222 --> 00:04:57,061
You're looking at an extra 200 days.

93
00:04:57,062 --> 00:05:01,157
You want to help your case,
then you can help us.

94
00:05:01,158 --> 00:05:04,101
What was Peter Laurence
doing at Shephill?

95
00:05:04,102 --> 00:05:05,960
And why was he talking to you?

96
00:05:23,045 --> 00:05:24,388
Morning, Minister.

97
00:05:36,741 --> 00:05:39,342
There's only one word for this -
it's scandalous.

98
00:05:39,367 --> 00:05:40,470
Good morning, Minister.

99
00:05:40,495 --> 00:05:42,632
No, it's not a good morning,
because I've been reading that.

100
00:05:42,657 --> 00:05:44,940
I assume this is the Shephill visit.

101
00:05:44,941 --> 00:05:46,617
Yes, it is, Dame Vanessa.

102
00:05:46,618 --> 00:05:49,017
The Prime Minister's office
has been on.

103
00:05:49,018 --> 00:05:50,508
I'm sure they have.

104
00:05:50,509 --> 00:05:52,428
They saw the interview.

105
00:05:52,429 --> 00:05:54,297
That's the briefing paper.

106
00:05:54,298 --> 00:05:56,337
I'm permanent undersecretary.

107
00:05:56,338 --> 00:05:59,148
If there was an official briefing
paper, I should have seen it.

108
00:05:59,149 --> 00:06:00,556
It's something I ran up.

109
00:06:00,557 --> 00:06:02,732
The Minister wanted
some bullet points.

110
00:06:02,733 --> 00:06:04,857
Do you know how many people
have killed themselves

111
00:06:04,858 --> 00:06:06,700
in British prisons
in the last 20 years?

112
00:06:06,701 --> 00:06:08,492
I don't have that figure to hand.

113
00:06:08,493 --> 00:06:10,860
- It's 2,000.
- I'd need to see the data.

114
00:06:10,861 --> 00:06:13,377
No, you wouldn't, because I've
just given it to you. It's 2,000.

115
00:06:13,378 --> 00:06:16,257
That's 100 a year.
That's two prisoners per week.

116
00:06:16,258 --> 00:06:18,668
And no-one's doing
a blind thing about it.

117
00:06:18,669 --> 00:06:22,060
Don't you think your first priority,
Minister, is to restore order?

118
00:06:22,061 --> 00:06:24,812
No, I think my first priority
is to restore sense.

119
00:06:24,813 --> 00:06:26,348
Joy, diary.

120
00:06:26,349 --> 00:06:28,857
The Prison Service has
a chief psychiatric officer.

121
00:06:28,858 --> 00:06:32,044
I can give you HIS survey
on self-harm in prisons.

122
00:06:32,045 --> 00:06:34,137
Self-harm?
They're killing themselves!

123
00:06:34,138 --> 00:06:37,497
With respect, Minister,
this isn't an authorised paper.

124
00:06:37,498 --> 00:06:39,788
It came from your...special adviser.

125
00:06:39,789 --> 00:06:41,217
So you're saying
the figure's wrong?

126
00:06:41,218 --> 00:06:43,884
Once you get into the granular
in this area of policy,

127
00:06:43,885 --> 00:06:45,868
things aren't as simple
as they seem.

128
00:06:45,869 --> 00:06:47,468
Dead's pretty simple.

129
00:06:47,469 --> 00:06:49,516
And the annual cost of
keeping an inmate in prison?

130
00:06:49,517 --> 00:06:50,988
The figures are soft.

131
00:06:50,989 --> 00:06:53,484
- Yeah, big and soft.
- Depending on the category...

132
00:06:53,485 --> 00:06:56,697
All right. It's a 40,000 a year.
For a young offender, 60,000.

133
00:06:56,698 --> 00:06:59,882
- May as well send them to Eton.
- At first appearance, it might...

134
00:06:59,907 --> 00:07:02,339
And do you know the cost of
maintaining the entire estate,

135
00:07:02,340 --> 00:07:02,946
do you know what that is?

136
00:07:02,971 --> 00:07:06,759
New ministers on arrival at
Justice may be slightly misled.

137
00:07:06,784 --> 00:07:10,560
Prisons are costing us
£4.3 billion a year.

138
00:07:10,561 --> 00:07:12,800
And that is why
we've been trying to bring down

139
00:07:12,801 --> 00:07:14,729
costs through privatisation.
Got nothing against privatisation.

140
00:07:14,754 --> 00:07:16,994
As long as it works. But I do
have a simpler suggestion.

141
00:07:16,995 --> 00:07:18,786
I think I may have heard it before.

142
00:07:18,787 --> 00:07:21,090
Why don't we stop
locking people up?

143
00:07:21,091 --> 00:07:23,842
Well, as you are aware,
that is a political question.

144
00:07:23,843 --> 00:07:25,711
It's not something I can decide.

145
00:07:25,712 --> 00:07:27,554
This ministry is drifting.

146
00:07:27,555 --> 00:07:30,562
It's time to set a new course.

147
00:07:30,563 --> 00:07:32,051
Joy!

148
00:07:39,151 --> 00:07:40,994
The Minister's ready
to look at his diary.

149
00:07:40,995 --> 00:07:42,374
Thank you.

150
00:07:55,074 --> 00:07:58,594
And are you the mysterious Margaret?

151
00:07:58,595 --> 00:08:00,642
Good guess.Hmm.

152
00:08:00,643 --> 00:08:02,370
You going to have a proper drink?

153
00:08:02,371 --> 00:08:04,711
I'm going to have a large vodka,
just so you know.

154
00:08:04,712 --> 00:08:07,111
You don't remember me, do you?

155
00:08:07,112 --> 00:08:08,551
Should I?

156
00:08:08,552 --> 00:08:10,626
You were leaving court
after the Peter Laurence case.

157
00:08:10,627 --> 00:08:12,511
I overheard you talking
to that little boy

158
00:08:12,512 --> 00:08:14,082
who always follows you around.

159
00:08:14,083 --> 00:08:16,066
Luke.

160
00:08:16,067 --> 00:08:17,311
What did I say?

161
00:08:17,312 --> 00:08:19,111
You said you loved getting
the guilty ones off.

162
00:08:19,112 --> 00:08:20,738
No, I didn't say guilty.

163
00:08:20,739 --> 00:08:23,682
I said suspected guilty. Thank you.

164
00:08:23,683 --> 00:08:25,191
You should learn
to keep your voice down.

165
00:08:33,391 --> 00:08:35,586
Whatever that is, I don't want it.

166
00:08:35,587 --> 00:08:36,802
That's your choice.

167
00:08:36,803 --> 00:08:39,874
But hang onto it.
It won't do you any harm.

168
00:08:39,875 --> 00:08:42,562
You going to tell me who you are?

169
00:08:42,563 --> 00:08:44,551
I assume
you're some kind of nutcase,

170
00:08:44,552 --> 00:08:47,106
or maybe someone
who's nursing a grudge?

171
00:08:47,107 --> 00:08:49,831
- Neither.
- What, then?

172
00:08:49,832 --> 00:08:52,034
Someone who cares about the truth.

173
00:08:52,035 --> 00:08:53,442
Unlikely.

174
00:08:53,443 --> 00:08:55,711
If you cared about the truth, you
would have given the papers team

175
00:08:55,712 --> 00:08:57,511
this dossier,
or whatever it is, weeks ago.

176
00:08:57,512 --> 00:08:59,551
- It wasn't possible.
- Why not?

177
00:08:59,552 --> 00:09:02,431
How well did you get
to know Laurence?

178
00:09:02,432 --> 00:09:04,002
Well enough.

179
00:09:04,003 --> 00:09:06,818
How did you find him?
To deal with.

180
00:09:06,819 --> 00:09:09,314
Refreshing.

181
00:09:09,315 --> 00:09:11,746
There's something about
Laurence's recklessness

182
00:09:11,747 --> 00:09:13,154
that adds up to integrity.

183
00:09:13,155 --> 00:09:14,946
He takes up genuine positions.

184
00:09:14,947 --> 00:09:17,191
The papers are going nuts
over his views over prisons,

185
00:09:17,192 --> 00:09:19,490
and he doesn't give a damn.

186
00:09:19,491 --> 00:09:21,391
That's class.

187
00:09:21,392 --> 00:09:23,330
Sounds as if you agree with him.

188
00:09:23,331 --> 00:09:25,186
You asked for my opinion.

189
00:09:25,187 --> 00:09:28,386
Look, I've put the case behind me.

190
00:09:28,387 --> 00:09:32,226
People don't hire me to investigate,
they hire me to win.

191
00:09:32,227 --> 00:09:33,651
And that's what I did.

192
00:09:36,151 --> 00:09:39,202
You're going to take that file home
and throw it aside...

193
00:09:39,203 --> 00:09:41,378
and then, one night,
you're going to get up

194
00:09:41,379 --> 00:09:42,831
because you can't resist reading it.

195
00:09:45,031 --> 00:09:48,130
And maybe if you're not interested,
the little dude will be.

196
00:09:52,130 --> 00:09:53,411
Thanks for your time.

197
00:10:06,511 --> 00:10:08,642
You all right?

198
00:10:08,643 --> 00:10:09,991
You know someone in there?

199
00:10:09,992 --> 00:10:12,546
Yeah, loosely.

200
00:10:12,547 --> 00:10:14,722
Look, you don't have to tell me
anything if you don't want to.

201
00:10:14,723 --> 00:10:15,791
I don't.

202
00:10:32,791 --> 00:10:34,971
Come on, Steff.

203
00:10:36,871 --> 00:10:39,682
At least talk to me.

204
00:10:39,683 --> 00:10:43,522
- Please?
- I ain't got nothing to say.

205
00:10:43,523 --> 00:10:46,146
They put me in here
cos I'm useless.

206
00:10:46,147 --> 00:10:49,026
Steff...we're going to get out.

207
00:10:49,027 --> 00:10:52,034
We're going to walk out of here
with our heads held high.

208
00:10:52,035 --> 00:10:53,314
I'm not going to let them win.

209
00:10:53,315 --> 00:10:54,382
Rose...

210
00:10:55,682 --> 00:10:58,082
I'm going to get 200 more days.

211
00:11:03,682 --> 00:11:05,862
Come in.

212
00:11:09,762 --> 00:11:12,391
I'm afraid there's a message
from the Prime Minister.

213
00:11:12,392 --> 00:11:14,818
Can you go in straight away?

214
00:11:14,819 --> 00:11:17,826
Why do you say you're afraid?

215
00:11:17,827 --> 00:11:19,951
You know something I don't?

216
00:11:19,952 --> 00:11:21,346
Of course not.

217
00:11:21,347 --> 00:11:23,911
I just meant perhaps you're going
to be late for the Law Society.

218
00:11:23,912 --> 00:11:25,122
Yeah.

219
00:11:25,123 --> 00:11:27,682
Of course that's what you meant.

220
00:11:27,683 --> 00:11:28,791
Minister.

221
00:11:38,562 --> 00:11:42,338
You going to set
all the prisoners free, Peter?

222
00:11:42,339 --> 00:11:44,514
- Prime Minister.
- Well, I'm glad you have time

223
00:11:44,515 --> 00:11:47,074
in your rich and interesting life
to come and see me.

224
00:11:47,075 --> 00:11:48,546
Rich, but not interesting.

225
00:11:48,547 --> 00:11:50,791
- I'm meant to be at the Law Society.
- I don't know if you remember

226
00:11:50,792 --> 00:11:53,042
what political party
you belong to, Peter.

227
00:11:54,242 --> 00:11:55,471
Why do you ask that?

228
00:11:55,472 --> 00:11:58,530
Because, sometimes, its founding
principles seem to slip your mind.

229
00:11:58,531 --> 00:12:01,154
As you know, Dawn,
I believe in pushing back

230
00:12:01,155 --> 00:12:02,562
the boundaries of the state.

231
00:12:02,563 --> 00:12:05,442
- Oh, is that what you believe?
- Yes, I am a libertarian.

232
00:12:05,443 --> 00:12:08,071
I care less about the party
than I do about freedom.

233
00:12:08,072 --> 00:12:10,306
And how do you feel about
the state protecting its citizens

234
00:12:10,307 --> 00:12:12,226
from those who wish to do them harm?

235
00:12:12,227 --> 00:12:14,466
I would never knowingly
put anyone in danger.

236
00:12:14,467 --> 00:12:17,026
But you're going to open all the
prison doors and let everyone out.

237
00:12:17,027 --> 00:12:19,591
That's not what I said,
and you know it's not what I meant.

238
00:12:19,592 --> 00:12:22,146
Don't get smart with me.
I saw you outside Shephill.

239
00:12:22,147 --> 00:12:22,834
And?

240
00:12:22,859 --> 00:12:24,898
And you were sent to
Justice after a period

241
00:12:24,899 --> 00:12:27,751
of riotous overexposure. You were
meant to administer that department,

242
00:12:27,752 --> 00:12:28,728
not to overturn it.

243
00:12:28,753 --> 00:12:30,556
Well, maybe you should
have checked my views

244
00:12:30,557 --> 00:12:33,151
- before you sent me there.
- I don't give a fuck about your views!

245
00:12:33,176 --> 00:12:35,480
What do you think this is,
Question Time?

246
00:12:35,481 --> 00:12:37,656
What is it about you, Peter?
A death wish?

247
00:12:37,657 --> 00:12:39,576
Every time
you start becoming acceptable,

248
00:12:39,577 --> 00:12:41,213
you start making trouble again.

249
00:12:41,214 --> 00:12:44,248
Prime Minister, everyone knows
that the prison system

250
00:12:44,249 --> 00:12:47,453
is grossly inefficient.
Let's strike out, for God's sake.

251
00:12:47,454 --> 00:12:48,263
Let's take a risk.

252
00:12:48,288 --> 00:12:50,693
Oh, but I thought you
believed that politics was about

253
00:12:50,694 --> 00:12:52,568
identity as well as economics?

254
00:12:52,569 --> 00:12:54,053
I do believe that, yes.

255
00:12:54,054 --> 00:12:57,176
So, let me tell you something
about the British identity.

256
00:12:57,177 --> 00:13:00,293
We lock people up.
We're famous for it.

257
00:13:00,294 --> 00:13:02,296
We do it in the interest
of public safety.

258
00:13:02,297 --> 00:13:04,253
- And to punish.
- Oh, yes.

259
00:13:04,254 --> 00:13:06,968
We LIKE locking people up,
it's in our character.

260
00:13:06,969 --> 00:13:09,784
So if you start bringing
in fancy new policies,

261
00:13:09,785 --> 00:13:14,264
you destroy that essential bond
between our party and our public.

262
00:13:14,265 --> 00:13:16,440
And that is a bond of trust, Peter.

263
00:13:16,441 --> 00:13:18,552
Now, our party owns law and order,

264
00:13:18,553 --> 00:13:22,072
and I am not willing to surrender
that electoral ground to anyone.

265
00:13:22,073 --> 00:13:23,736
I thought we owned efficiency, too?

266
00:13:23,737 --> 00:13:25,272
Identity trumps efficiency.

267
00:13:25,273 --> 00:13:27,293
If you don't know that,
you shouldn't be in politics.

268
00:13:27,294 --> 00:13:30,904
I'm not completely sure what you're
trying to tell me, Prime Minister.

269
00:13:30,905 --> 00:13:36,893
The rules apply to you
as much as to anyone.

270
00:13:36,894 --> 00:13:40,696
You are already beginning to lose
the loyalty of your own office.

271
00:13:40,697 --> 00:13:41,933
Oh.

272
00:13:41,934 --> 00:13:44,396
- Who did you have in mind?
- Dame Vanessa Pollard.

273
00:13:46,328 --> 00:13:48,824
Page one for government ministers...

274
00:13:48,825 --> 00:13:51,081
..life gets hard
when you lose the staff.

275
00:13:52,856 --> 00:13:53,944
Is this meeting over?

276
00:13:53,945 --> 00:13:56,376
No. I know you, Peter.

277
00:13:56,377 --> 00:13:59,213
You think you're too popular
to be sacked.

278
00:13:59,214 --> 00:14:01,560
But if the moment comes...

279
00:14:01,561 --> 00:14:03,660
I shall be happy
to prove you wrong.

280
00:14:05,693 --> 00:14:08,536
Now it's over.

281
00:14:08,537 --> 00:14:10,520
Prime Minister.

282
00:14:10,521 --> 00:14:12,952
Peter.

283
00:14:12,953 --> 00:14:14,616
Thank you so much for coming in.

284
00:14:14,617 --> 00:14:16,664
We need to discuss the proposals
for the inquiry

285
00:14:16,665 --> 00:14:18,328
into the violence at Shephill.

286
00:14:18,329 --> 00:14:21,144
Yes.

287
00:14:21,145 --> 00:14:24,773
There is one thing
I should mention before we do.

288
00:14:24,774 --> 00:14:26,840
- Please.
- Perhaps you already know.

289
00:14:26,841 --> 00:14:29,848
The day before the riot,
Peter Laurence visited the prison.

290
00:14:29,849 --> 00:14:31,704
You mean a few days after?

291
00:14:31,705 --> 00:14:33,860
No, I mean the day before.

292
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,144
I didn't know that, no.

293
00:14:37,145 --> 00:14:39,704
He visited someone
he said was his constituent.

294
00:14:39,705 --> 00:14:41,093
Said?

295
00:14:41,094 --> 00:14:45,144
We've identified her as one of
the ringleaders of the disturbances.

296
00:14:45,145 --> 00:14:48,344
I thought I should mention it before
you plump for a formal inquiry.

297
00:14:48,345 --> 00:14:50,008
Yes.

298
00:14:50,009 --> 00:14:51,236
Tell me more.

299
00:15:08,888 --> 00:15:10,104
- Yeah?
- Bad news.

300
00:15:10,105 --> 00:15:12,344
You need to look at your phone.

301
00:15:12,345 --> 00:15:15,053
You are not going to like it.
Take a look.

302
00:15:20,453 --> 00:15:23,273
Jesus Christ...

303
00:15:32,504 --> 00:15:34,424
Did you know about this?

304
00:15:34,425 --> 00:15:35,512
No.

305
00:15:35,513 --> 00:15:38,093
Well, we thought it was a battle,
and now it's a war.

306
00:15:38,094 --> 00:15:39,544
Do you want to call Lily?

307
00:15:39,545 --> 00:15:40,973
We should warn her.

308
00:15:40,974 --> 00:15:42,808
No, I'll speak to her later.

309
00:15:42,809 --> 00:15:45,944
How could she have been so stupid?

310
00:15:45,945 --> 00:15:46,964
All right.

311
00:15:51,064 --> 00:15:53,112
Oh, my God.

312
00:15:53,113 --> 00:15:55,544
They're Hydra-headed, aren't they?

313
00:15:55,545 --> 00:15:57,720
- Who?
- The press.

314
00:15:57,721 --> 00:16:00,413
Cut the head off one day,
and they come right back the next.

315
00:16:00,414 --> 00:16:03,096
I drove a stake
right through their heart.

316
00:16:03,097 --> 00:16:05,644
And because they can't get me,
they come after Lily.

317
00:16:07,384 --> 00:16:09,112
What will you do?

318
00:16:09,113 --> 00:16:11,096
I'm going to fight.

319
00:16:11,097 --> 00:16:13,853
I'm going to say this is a sign
that we need to be

320
00:16:13,854 --> 00:16:16,024
re-examining the drug laws.

321
00:16:16,025 --> 00:16:18,136
I'd rather be a villain
than a hypocrite.

322
00:16:18,137 --> 00:16:20,952
You're already saying
you want to overturn prison policy.

323
00:16:20,953 --> 00:16:23,813
Now you want to take
on drug law, as well?

324
00:16:23,814 --> 00:16:26,136
And all because
your own daughter likes a toot?

325
00:16:26,137 --> 00:16:28,991
You won't come well out of that.

326
00:16:30,744 --> 00:16:32,573
All right. "It's a private matter.

327
00:16:32,574 --> 00:16:34,373
"My family's out of bounds.

328
00:16:34,374 --> 00:16:36,210
"I brought them up
to be independent.

329
00:16:36,696 --> 00:16:39,188
"I don't interfere.
They make their own decisions."

330
00:16:40,493 --> 00:16:41,625
How does that sound?

331
00:16:42,904 --> 00:16:44,118
You going to call her?

332
00:16:45,144 --> 00:16:47,439
No. She can call me.

333
00:16:49,432 --> 00:16:51,096
Good morning, Prime Minister.

334
00:16:51,097 --> 00:16:53,087
I thought you should see this.

335
00:17:00,293 --> 00:17:03,393
- Is this your doing?
- As it happens, not.

336
00:17:07,288 --> 00:17:09,976
Still...

337
00:17:09,977 --> 00:17:12,193
can't help but feel sorry
for the poor girl.

338
00:17:18,893 --> 00:17:20,093
Charlotte.

339
00:17:20,094 --> 00:17:21,816
- Lily, what's going on?
- They've got photos.

340
00:17:21,817 --> 00:17:22,456
Who?

341
00:17:22,481 --> 00:17:24,376
The newspaper.
They've published photos of me

342
00:17:24,377 --> 00:17:26,744
snorting at the party
and falling over.

343
00:17:26,745 --> 00:17:29,304
I don't believe it.

344
00:17:29,305 --> 00:17:31,253
I'm worried
my dad's going to be furious.

345
00:17:31,254 --> 00:17:33,208
Have you spoken to him?
You should ring him.

346
00:17:33,209 --> 00:17:36,493
No, that's not going to work.

347
00:17:58,493 --> 00:18:01,176
We haven't met.
I work for the Minister.

348
00:18:01,177 --> 00:18:02,776
I'm Vanessa Pollard.

349
00:18:02,777 --> 00:18:07,013
- I'm his daughter.
- Yes, I recognised you.

350
00:18:07,014 --> 00:18:09,176
Lily. What a nice surprise.

351
00:18:09,177 --> 00:18:10,176
Come on in.

352
00:18:20,376 --> 00:18:22,424
You haven't even rung me.

353
00:18:22,425 --> 00:18:25,304
No. I didn't ring you
because I was too angry.

354
00:18:25,305 --> 00:18:27,544
YOU were angry?

355
00:18:27,545 --> 00:18:30,424
It didn't happen to you,
it happened to me.

356
00:18:30,425 --> 00:18:32,642
But it wasn't me
putting coke up my nose.

357
00:18:34,939 --> 00:18:36,568
Come here.

358
00:18:36,569 --> 00:18:38,104
- No.
- Come here.

359
00:18:38,105 --> 00:18:39,925
- No!
- Lily, come on.

360
00:18:39,950 --> 00:18:41,612
Just give me a hug. I was joking.

361
00:18:41,637 --> 00:18:45,085
- You don't get out of it that easily!
- Get out of what?

362
00:18:45,110 --> 00:18:46,664
What am I supposed to have done?

363
00:18:47,419 --> 00:18:49,974
Lily, this is your mess.

364
00:18:49,975 --> 00:18:52,854
I've spent my whole life trying to
teach you to accept responsibility.

365
00:18:52,855 --> 00:18:54,595
Haven't you learnt that?

366
00:18:57,398 --> 00:19:00,379
I...I don't mean to be harsh,
I really don't.

367
00:19:00,380 --> 00:19:02,710
Don't you have any sympathy
for me, Dad?

368
00:19:02,711 --> 00:19:06,499
Of course I do. I just want you to
accept when something's your fault.

369
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:07,894
Fuck you!

370
00:19:07,895 --> 00:19:11,179
Fuck you, Dad! I came down
here to say sorry to you,

371
00:19:11,180 --> 00:19:13,014
but fuck it. Why should I?

372
00:19:13,015 --> 00:19:15,079
I'm not saying sorry to you.

373
00:20:20,179 --> 00:20:21,622
Goodnight.

374
00:20:21,623 --> 00:20:23,478
I shan't need you any more, Sydney.

375
00:20:23,479 --> 00:20:26,486
- Thanks. Have a good night.
- Goodnight, sir.

376
00:20:26,487 --> 00:20:28,250
Let's walk. It'll do us good.

377
00:20:42,550 --> 00:20:47,299
Well, Mick, as you know, I was not
lucky enough to go to university,

378
00:20:47,300 --> 00:20:51,766
but my understanding is that having
fun is part of university life.

379
00:20:51,767 --> 00:20:53,110
Oh, right.

380
00:20:53,111 --> 00:20:55,606
So you think that taking drugs
is just having fun?

381
00:20:55,607 --> 00:20:57,019
No, that's not what I said.

382
00:20:57,020 --> 00:20:58,614
You're a government minister, Peter.

383
00:20:58,615 --> 00:21:01,302
That's right. I'm a government
minister, and my daughter isn't.

384
00:21:01,303 --> 00:21:04,502
- There is a big difference.
- This is so bloody typical.

385
00:21:04,503 --> 00:21:07,339
- You pose as a man of the people...
- I don't pose as anything, Mick.

386
00:21:07,340 --> 00:21:11,059
Well, when it comes down to it,
Peter, there's one rule for you

387
00:21:11,060 --> 00:21:13,014
and another rule for the rest of us.

388
00:21:13,015 --> 00:21:15,830
Anyone else would've been arrested
by now.

389
00:21:15,831 --> 00:21:19,099
You're the Minister for Justice, and
your own family's breaking the law.

390
00:21:19,100 --> 00:21:21,379
How much longer
can you last in that job?

391
00:21:21,380 --> 00:21:23,830
A lot of people, you know,
think you're taking the piss.

392
00:21:23,831 --> 00:21:25,219
In what way?

393
00:21:25,220 --> 00:21:27,670
Because everybody in Britain
agrees with me -

394
00:21:27,671 --> 00:21:30,934
you lock criminals up
and you throw away the key.

395
00:21:30,935 --> 00:21:33,622
But you, for some reason,
seem to want them wandering around

396
00:21:33,623 --> 00:21:35,179
on the streets out there.

397
00:21:35,180 --> 00:21:37,590
I absolutely do not want that.

398
00:21:37,591 --> 00:21:40,534
Why the hell would you make all
this trouble for yourself, Peter,

399
00:21:40,535 --> 00:21:43,286
- when you just don't need to?
- Well, Mick, this may come as

400
00:21:43,287 --> 00:21:45,782
a bit of a shock to you,
but I happen to be one of those

401
00:21:45,783 --> 00:21:49,819
politicians who believes in leading
rather than following.

402
00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:55,139
What's happened? She doesn't
usually let you go this early.

403
00:21:58,939 --> 00:22:01,710
Well, it would be a shame
to waste it.

404
00:22:03,190 --> 00:22:05,366
Yeah, no, he won't mind.
He's flying.

405
00:22:05,367 --> 00:22:07,314
What's the advantage
of throwing away a key?

406
00:22:07,339 --> 00:22:08,310
That's the policy.

407
00:22:08,311 --> 00:22:09,654
OK...

408
00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:35,702
And I care very deeply
about prison reform.

409
00:22:35,703 --> 00:22:37,942
- Oh, I...
- That is something

410
00:22:37,943 --> 00:22:40,339
I don't doubt
that you want prison reform.

411
00:22:40,340 --> 00:22:42,806
I'm not so sure
your Prime Minister does.

412
00:22:42,807 --> 00:22:47,059
And she's got 99% of the country
on her side with that one.

413
00:22:47,060 --> 00:22:50,734
Well, Mick, maybe you know
her thoughts better than I do.

414
00:23:05,334 --> 00:23:06,930
Marylebone, please.

415
00:23:38,230 --> 00:23:39,702
- There you go.
- All right, thank you.

416
00:23:39,703 --> 00:23:42,179
Pochettino is not the answer!

417
00:24:18,742 --> 00:24:22,646
- Oh, my goodness...!
- I know!

418
00:24:25,974 --> 00:24:27,446
Oh, it feels like forever.

419
00:24:27,447 --> 00:24:29,059
Oh, it isn't.

420
00:24:39,259 --> 00:24:42,998
I don't want to upset you, but...

421
00:24:42,999 --> 00:24:45,912
..I did want to ask you a question.

422
00:24:46,710 --> 00:24:48,537
Go on, then.

423
00:24:49,590 --> 00:24:50,920
It's just...

424
00:24:53,391 --> 00:24:55,349
Peter was a bit spooked.

425
00:24:56,310 --> 00:25:00,534
One day, a prisoner comes forward
to say he has a daughter,

426
00:25:00,535 --> 00:25:04,219
and then the next day
he's made Minister of Justice.

427
00:25:04,220 --> 00:25:05,659
Oh, I see.

428
00:25:05,660 --> 00:25:09,499
- Are you asking...?
- I suppose I'm asking whether she knew.

429
00:25:09,500 --> 00:25:11,715
Well, of course she knew.
I told her.

430
00:25:14,870 --> 00:25:16,819
But didn't I specifically...?

431
00:25:16,820 --> 00:25:18,166
What?

432
00:25:20,566 --> 00:25:21,570
Look...

433
00:25:22,486 --> 00:25:24,918
You and I, we tell each other stuff,

434
00:25:24,919 --> 00:25:27,542
but we also ring fence stuff,
don't we?

435
00:25:27,543 --> 00:25:30,550
And this whole thing with
the illegitimate daughter, I...

436
00:25:30,551 --> 00:25:34,070
Actually, I remember ring fencing.
I'm sure I did.

437
00:25:34,071 --> 00:25:38,000
I don't remember that.

438
00:25:44,374 --> 00:25:47,254
I'm wondering what
this relationship means to you.

439
00:25:47,255 --> 00:25:49,110
Are you saying you don't
want to see me any more?

440
00:25:49,111 --> 00:25:50,112
No.

441
00:25:51,739 --> 00:25:55,190
- No, I'm not saying that.
- OK, then.

442
00:25:55,191 --> 00:25:58,838
- But can I just ask...?
- Ask anything.

443
00:25:58,839 --> 00:26:00,927
Is she out to destroy his career?

444
00:26:02,486 --> 00:26:04,790
Dawn doesn't have to.

445
00:26:04,791 --> 00:26:07,318
Isn't he doing that for himself?

446
00:26:24,859 --> 00:26:27,356
Do you know what I'd like?

447
00:26:27,381 --> 00:26:31,221
Once in our lives, we could
meet outside this apartment.

448
00:26:31,222 --> 00:26:33,079
Yeah. Well, that's
not going to happen.

449
00:26:36,021 --> 00:26:40,181
Now you're at Justice,
it's a whole new level of scrutiny.

450
00:26:40,182 --> 00:26:43,573
Can you still get away with bunking
off to Baker Street at night?

451
00:26:43,574 --> 00:26:44,977
Well, I always have.

452
00:26:45,429 --> 00:26:46,704
Always?

453
00:26:47,221 --> 00:26:49,164
Did you always have girlfriends?

454
00:26:51,317 --> 00:26:54,133
Really, I'm interested.

455
00:26:54,970 --> 00:26:58,933
You know, I was in my early 20s
when I moved to Notting Hill.

456
00:26:58,934 --> 00:27:00,853
A long way from Croydon.

457
00:27:00,854 --> 00:27:02,281
Yeah.

458
00:27:03,130 --> 00:27:04,930
I was suddenly in a different world.

459
00:27:04,931 --> 00:27:07,573
Notting Hill was packed
with kids in big houses,

460
00:27:07,574 --> 00:27:10,210
pretending to be bohemians.

461
00:27:10,211 --> 00:27:12,757
Lots of sex, lots of drugs.

462
00:27:12,758 --> 00:27:15,765
Lots of men talking about Gorchev,

463
00:27:15,766 --> 00:27:18,730
and Pilates, CND, feminism.

464
00:27:18,731 --> 00:27:21,370
And it was one massive fake.

465
00:27:21,371 --> 00:27:24,338
All on private incomes.
Talk left, live right.

466
00:27:25,690 --> 00:27:30,018
And because I talked slightly less
bollocks than the other men...

467
00:27:31,125 --> 00:27:33,621
I was clear-eyed,
I saw it for what it was.

468
00:27:33,622 --> 00:27:34,745
So...

469
00:27:35,605 --> 00:27:38,770
Yeah, I was "popular".
I was a popular companion.

470
00:27:38,771 --> 00:27:41,050
And were you married at the time?

471
00:27:41,051 --> 00:27:43,477
As a matter of fact, I was, yeah.

472
00:27:53,077 --> 00:27:55,253
Peter, I've changed my plans.

473
00:27:55,254 --> 00:27:57,173
I'm not going to Texas.

474
00:27:57,174 --> 00:28:00,309
- I thought you got the job?
- I did.

475
00:28:00,310 --> 00:28:04,450
And when I told you, maybe I was
hurt you didn't seem more upset.

476
00:28:04,451 --> 00:28:07,930
- I WAS upset.
- We're good together and we're happy.

477
00:28:07,931 --> 00:28:11,189
Much happier than you are
with your family.

478
00:28:11,190 --> 00:28:14,410
So why exactly
were you letting me go?

479
00:28:14,411 --> 00:28:17,145
Because I don't own you.

480
00:28:18,293 --> 00:28:19,973
It's convenient.

481
00:28:22,133 --> 00:28:23,890
All right.

482
00:28:23,891 --> 00:28:26,770
But I'm free, too.

483
00:28:26,771 --> 00:28:30,901
I'm free to stay here
and fight for our relationship.

484
00:28:30,902 --> 00:28:31,968
Good.

485
00:28:32,565 --> 00:28:33,920
That is your right.

486
00:28:35,530 --> 00:28:37,998
And it's worth saying,
my family is fine.

487
00:28:38,901 --> 00:28:41,653
One daughter all over the papers
and one ran away.

488
00:28:41,654 --> 00:28:44,537
We get along fine. It's a good home.

489
00:29:38,939 --> 00:29:41,532
Wow! Shaking up.

490
00:29:41,557 --> 00:29:43,911
- Are you happy?
- Very.

491
00:29:44,821 --> 00:29:47,130
You must have had
a very difficult time.

492
00:29:47,829 --> 00:29:50,530
I saw all that stuff
about Lily in the paper.

493
00:29:50,531 --> 00:29:52,501
It was awful, wasn't it?

494
00:29:52,502 --> 00:29:54,037
Is she all right?

495
00:29:54,038 --> 00:29:56,213
- Well, I've spoken to her on the phone.
- Good.

496
00:29:56,214 --> 00:29:59,290
She's...shaken, but who wouldn't be?

497
00:29:59,291 --> 00:30:01,461
It's so unfair.

498
00:30:01,462 --> 00:30:04,917
- I need to get going.
- Oh, I'll walk with you.

499
00:30:05,770 --> 00:30:07,456
Didn't you go up to London?

500
00:30:07,930 --> 00:30:10,101
Weren't you with Peter
for his court case?

501
00:30:10,102 --> 00:30:11,833
Just to testify.

502
00:30:13,045 --> 00:30:14,773
How much of him do you see?

503
00:30:14,774 --> 00:30:18,010
Oh, quite a lot.
When I'm not making music.

504
00:30:18,011 --> 00:30:20,170
He's always down here
at the weekend.

505
00:30:20,171 --> 00:30:22,745
Remember, it's his constituency.

506
00:30:24,610 --> 00:30:28,513
He knows I'm not keen on dinners
and parties and things in London.

507
00:30:29,173 --> 00:30:30,730
Do you ever go?

508
00:30:30,731 --> 00:30:32,921
Oh, you know, if it's the Queen.

509
00:30:40,821 --> 00:30:43,090
- Lily!
- I've been at the house all night.

510
00:30:43,091 --> 00:30:45,970
There is one jar of olives,
the hot water has been turned off,

511
00:30:45,971 --> 00:30:49,013
and there is no sign of my dad.
So where do you take him?

512
00:30:49,014 --> 00:30:51,189
Lily, you know
I can't tell you that.

513
00:30:51,190 --> 00:30:52,661
What, he has another life?

514
00:30:52,662 --> 00:30:55,330
You know I can't.

515
00:30:55,331 --> 00:30:57,672
Always loyal to the boss,
is that it?

516
00:31:00,917 --> 00:31:03,258
She's called Madeleine.

517
00:31:04,210 --> 00:31:06,250
There's a fresh development.

518
00:31:06,251 --> 00:31:09,045
- Concerning what?
- I'm about to tell you.

519
00:31:09,046 --> 00:31:11,413
Not if you're going to eat
while you talk.

520
00:31:11,414 --> 00:31:13,793
- I'm not.
- You know how I feel about that.

521
00:31:17,192 --> 00:31:18,170
Here.

522
00:31:23,170 --> 00:31:25,211
She's sending her DNA.

523
00:31:26,773 --> 00:31:29,530
She... What?

524
00:31:29,531 --> 00:31:32,469
She wants a DNA test.

525
00:31:32,470 --> 00:31:36,309
Oh, Duncan... Duncan, come on...!

526
00:31:37,090 --> 00:31:39,439
Just when we're back in front.

527
00:31:39,893 --> 00:31:42,453
We don't even know who this
supposed daughter is meant to be.

528
00:31:42,454 --> 00:31:43,861
Is she telling us?

529
00:31:44,309 --> 00:31:46,690
- No.
- Right, so even if the DNA's a match,

530
00:31:46,691 --> 00:31:48,730
this Frost woman
could have got it anywhere.

531
00:31:48,731 --> 00:31:50,694
She's in prison.

532
00:31:52,330 --> 00:31:53,653
Well, how's she planning to send it?

533
00:31:53,654 --> 00:31:56,341
On a comb in the post.

534
00:31:56,342 --> 00:31:59,538
Do we have any way of establishing
who the comb belongs to?

535
00:32:00,885 --> 00:32:02,933
Duncan, we...

536
00:32:02,934 --> 00:32:04,533
Can we just think about this?

537
00:32:04,534 --> 00:32:06,773
I make a discreet prison visit.

538
00:32:06,774 --> 00:32:09,013
24 hours later, there's a riot.

539
00:32:09,014 --> 00:32:12,130
And you're now seriously proposing
that the Minister of Justice

540
00:32:12,131 --> 00:32:16,733
investigates whether or not
he has a daughter in Shephill?

541
00:32:17,290 --> 00:32:19,957
Something tells me I'm taking this
more seriously than you are.

542
00:32:19,958 --> 00:32:22,773
I'm not giving this woman
the steam off my piss.

543
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:24,693
You MUST have been
thinking about it.

544
00:32:24,694 --> 00:32:26,616
Well, I haven't!

545
00:32:29,941 --> 00:32:31,810
We need to deal with this
before it gets out of hand.

546
00:32:31,811 --> 00:32:33,490
We ARE dealing with it.

547
00:32:33,491 --> 00:32:36,533
In different ways.
My way's better than yours.

548
00:32:36,534 --> 00:32:40,949
I wouldn't even have gone there
if you hadn't caught me off-guard.

549
00:32:40,950 --> 00:32:42,805
Minister...

550
00:32:42,806 --> 00:32:44,835
Have you read
any classic literature?

551
00:32:45,370 --> 00:32:48,850
Don't you know
there's something called justice,

552
00:32:48,851 --> 00:32:50,485
Justice is not a notion, Duncan.

553
00:32:50,486 --> 00:32:52,509
It's a department of state.

554
00:32:53,109 --> 00:32:55,282
And a badly run one, at that.

555
00:32:55,733 --> 00:32:58,613
What's the one thing
that you and I have learned?

556
00:32:58,614 --> 00:33:01,923
You can get away with anything
if you just brazen it out.

557
00:33:03,669 --> 00:33:06,490
Traffic flowing
freely down Route 395 this evening,

558
00:33:06,491 --> 00:33:09,601
all the way from Junction 1
to Capitol Hill.

559
00:33:15,701 --> 00:33:17,384
Cheers, thanks.

560
00:33:53,530 --> 00:33:56,533
I couldn't help noticing.

561
00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:58,005
Noticing what?

562
00:33:58,006 --> 00:33:59,669
You've been looking at me.

563
00:33:59,670 --> 00:34:02,421
- Have I?
-And you've been here for some time.

564
00:34:02,422 --> 00:34:06,610
Well, if you know that,
then you've been looking at me.

565
00:34:06,611 --> 00:34:08,437
Is that gin?

566
00:34:08,438 --> 00:34:11,317
No, it's not gin. I just have tonic.

567
00:34:11,318 --> 00:34:13,941
Odd to drink tonic in a bar.

568
00:34:13,942 --> 00:34:16,245
You part of
this whole Republican thing?

569
00:34:16,246 --> 00:34:18,850
Not that I know about. Should I be?

570
00:34:18,851 --> 00:34:20,981
No, it's just
it's a Republican bar.

571
00:34:20,982 --> 00:34:22,930
I like this bar.

572
00:34:22,931 --> 00:34:25,461
It's comforting.

573
00:34:25,462 --> 00:34:27,374
Why are you drinking alone?

574
00:34:28,690 --> 00:34:30,773
I'm Irish.

575
00:34:30,774 --> 00:34:33,077
We're not frightened to be alone,

576
00:34:33,078 --> 00:34:37,109
and I'd much rather be among people
than in a hotel room.

577
00:34:37,110 --> 00:34:38,837
What are you doing in town?

578
00:34:38,838 --> 00:34:40,690
It's my sister's birthday.

579
00:34:42,741 --> 00:34:45,173
Barry Errera.

580
00:34:45,174 --> 00:34:47,290
Stella Jones.

581
00:34:47,291 --> 00:34:49,013
Stella?

582
00:34:49,014 --> 00:34:50,933
I've never met a Stella before.

583
00:34:50,934 --> 00:34:54,067
I'm sorry,
but you're not my first Barry.

584
00:34:55,989 --> 00:34:58,037
I know another bar.

585
00:34:58,038 --> 00:34:59,893
Quieter.

586
00:34:59,894 --> 00:35:01,877
Yeah, OK.

587
00:35:01,878 --> 00:35:04,330
So, what do you do
for a living, Stella?

588
00:35:04,331 --> 00:35:08,533
Oh, sort of,
erm...public relations, you know?

589
00:35:08,534 --> 00:35:11,093
- What about you?
- I work in a gas factory.

590
00:35:11,094 --> 00:35:13,141
Washington's full of them.

591
00:35:13,142 --> 00:35:14,805
I don't know what that is.

592
00:35:14,806 --> 00:35:17,620
Oh, it's a lobby group
dressed up as a think tank.

593
00:35:18,010 --> 00:35:20,770
- Is that legal?
- It's not illegal.

594
00:35:20,771 --> 00:35:22,210
I'll tell you how it works.

595
00:35:22,211 --> 00:35:24,370
Say, for instance, you sell tobacco.

596
00:35:24,371 --> 00:35:28,090
What do you do? You can't
just say tobacco is good,

597
00:35:28,091 --> 00:35:30,165
- cos, obviously, it's not.
- No.

598
00:35:30,166 --> 00:35:32,085
So you dream up a philosophy.

599
00:35:32,086 --> 00:35:36,501
You say, "Smoking's an issue
of individual freedom."

600
00:35:36,502 --> 00:35:39,765
Like, every human being has the
right to pollute their own lungs?

601
00:35:39,766 --> 00:35:42,010
- You have the right
to your own cancer.

602
00:35:42,011 --> 00:35:44,501
So, you get a gang
of academics - they're cheap,

603
00:35:44,502 --> 00:35:46,997
they'll say anything -
and you form a think tank.

604
00:35:46,998 --> 00:35:49,621
Open up an office,
give it a brass plate,

605
00:35:49,622 --> 00:35:51,610
and suddenly you're talking
to senators.

606
00:35:51,611 --> 00:35:53,290
Not as a salesman. Oh, no.

607
00:35:53,291 --> 00:35:56,469
You're the president of the
American Forum for Freedom.

608
00:35:56,470 --> 00:35:58,389
And what do call this group?

609
00:35:58,390 --> 00:36:01,210
It's called British American
Development Forum.

610
00:36:01,211 --> 00:36:03,385
- Heard of it?
- No.

611
00:36:07,285 --> 00:36:09,141
Wish I could persuade you.

612
00:36:09,142 --> 00:36:11,189
Uh, you can't persuade me,
not tonight.

613
00:36:11,190 --> 00:36:12,693
Another night.

614
00:36:13,330 --> 00:36:15,555
Another night, maybe, yeah. Yeah.

615
00:36:19,573 --> 00:36:21,914
Oh, it's my car.

616
00:36:22,709 --> 00:36:24,406
Goodnight.

617
00:36:28,981 --> 00:36:32,410
Thank you.

618
00:37:48,661 --> 00:37:49,823
Mum.

619
00:37:50,773 --> 00:37:52,629
Goodness. Lily.

620
00:37:54,549 --> 00:37:56,213
What on earth are you doing here?

621
00:37:56,214 --> 00:37:58,005
That's not very welcoming.

622
00:37:58,006 --> 00:38:00,072
Just I had no idea you were coming.

623
00:38:00,501 --> 00:38:01,973
It's a surprise.

624
00:38:01,974 --> 00:38:03,317
Of course I'm pleased.

625
00:38:04,213 --> 00:38:06,370
But, surely, it's still
term time, isn't it?

626
00:38:06,371 --> 00:38:11,410
- I've lost track of everything.
- Yeah, it's still term time.

627
00:38:11,411 --> 00:38:12,882
I'm making tea.

628
00:38:13,493 --> 00:38:15,944
Thought I might hide for a few days.

629
00:38:17,116 --> 00:38:19,509
It's that time of year,
the Hastings Music Festival.

630
00:38:19,510 --> 00:38:22,330
You know how it is.
As always, we're short of men.

631
00:38:22,331 --> 00:38:27,061
Too many women, which doesn't
suit Handel. The balance is wrong.

632
00:38:27,062 --> 00:38:29,050
Have you spoken to Dad?

633
00:38:29,051 --> 00:38:31,552
Why? Did you tell him
you were coming down here?

634
00:38:32,117 --> 00:38:33,263
No.

635
00:38:33,781 --> 00:38:36,419
How long are you staying?

636
00:38:38,965 --> 00:38:41,050
Erm, sorry...

637
00:38:41,051 --> 00:38:44,085
Do you know, I'm even forgetting
how you take your tea.

638
00:38:44,086 --> 00:38:45,941
Of course you are.

639
00:38:45,942 --> 00:38:48,757
No reason you should know,
but I've started taking sugar.

640
00:38:48,758 --> 00:38:51,130
So that's sugar AND milk.

641
00:38:51,131 --> 00:38:53,693
Both.

642
00:39:20,693 --> 00:39:23,317
- Yeah?
- You're Zoe Downs?

643
00:39:23,318 --> 00:39:25,330
People say you know more
about the Development Forum

644
00:39:25,331 --> 00:39:27,157
than anyone in the United States.

645
00:39:27,158 --> 00:39:30,010
So, you must be the fool
who went up against them?

646
00:39:30,011 --> 00:39:32,213
Look, you used to cover
the same turf as me.

647
00:39:32,214 --> 00:39:34,810
I blogged for a while,
and then I stopped.

648
00:39:34,811 --> 00:39:37,930
Yeah, why was that?

649
00:39:37,931 --> 00:39:39,970
I recognise you from the trial.

650
00:39:39,971 --> 00:39:41,813
Well, I'm back on the story.

651
00:39:41,814 --> 00:39:44,650
I've actually just been talking
to someone from British American.

652
00:39:44,651 --> 00:39:47,061
I know them all. Give me a name.

653
00:39:47,062 --> 00:39:49,493
- Barry Errera?
- You're kidding.

654
00:39:49,494 --> 00:39:52,501
Well, he seemed easy, very amiable.

655
00:39:52,502 --> 00:39:53,781
Christ.

656
00:39:53,782 --> 00:39:56,770
You're a terrible judge
of character.

657
00:39:56,771 --> 00:40:00,135
Look, if you helped me,
nobody would know about us.

658
00:40:02,101 --> 00:40:05,941
- Come on.
- Thank you.

659
00:40:05,942 --> 00:40:09,397
Studying British American was
my whole life for eight months.

660
00:40:09,398 --> 00:40:11,189
So what happened?

661
00:40:11,190 --> 00:40:12,427
Well, I got scared.

662
00:40:13,210 --> 00:40:16,245
You know, investigative journalism
sounds so great

663
00:40:16,246 --> 00:40:18,370
when you work
at the Washington Post.

664
00:40:18,371 --> 00:40:20,789
When you're a 20-something woman
living alone,

665
00:40:20,790 --> 00:40:22,767
well, it's not so funny.

666
00:40:23,861 --> 00:40:26,485
- So what do you do now?
- Travel.

667
00:40:26,486 --> 00:40:29,698
"Ten Best Hotels In Cancun."

668
00:40:33,205 --> 00:40:34,534
That's the list.

669
00:40:35,701 --> 00:40:38,453
Those are the staff who took
nondisclosure agreements.

670
00:40:38,454 --> 00:40:40,575
A lot of people got rich.

671
00:40:42,293 --> 00:40:44,536
You mean, no chance
they'll talk to me?

672
00:40:45,557 --> 00:40:48,181
Are you really going
through with this?

673
00:40:48,182 --> 00:40:50,329
I was humiliated.

674
00:40:51,381 --> 00:40:54,572
I was humiliated in court
when I couldn't tell what I knew.

675
00:40:55,541 --> 00:40:57,829
Can you imagine what that's like?

676
00:40:58,810 --> 00:41:00,250
You're a journalist,

677
00:41:00,251 --> 00:41:03,332
and you're branded
as malicious and incompetent.

678
00:41:05,653 --> 00:41:06,942
Eat.

679
00:41:08,789 --> 00:41:12,181
Can I ask you one question?

680
00:41:12,182 --> 00:41:14,393
Did anyone not sign an NDA?

681
00:41:22,570 --> 00:41:24,149
This has come through the scanner.

682
00:41:24,150 --> 00:41:26,581
It's addressed to Peter.
It seems very odd.

683
00:41:26,582 --> 00:41:30,741
What's in it?

684
00:41:30,742 --> 00:41:31,933
A comb.

685
00:41:32,725 --> 00:41:35,770
Why on earth would anyone send
Peter a comb? Is this a joke?

686
00:41:35,771 --> 00:41:37,973
His hair's always perfect,
he makes a special point of it.

687
00:41:37,974 --> 00:41:39,490
I think I'd better take that.

688
00:41:39,491 --> 00:41:41,845
- Do you know what it is?
- Just let me take it.

689
00:42:21,045 --> 00:42:24,130
What on earth are you doing
in the Minister's office?

690
00:42:24,131 --> 00:42:26,770
You're not telling me
he sent for his comb?

691
00:42:26,771 --> 00:42:28,570
No.

692
00:42:28,571 --> 00:42:30,773
And why are you lifting it
like that?

693
00:42:30,774 --> 00:42:32,480
Because...

694
00:42:35,061 --> 00:42:36,533
Look, it's complicated.

695
00:42:36,534 --> 00:42:38,709
Am I butting
into something non-governmental?

696
00:42:38,710 --> 00:42:40,330
- Is that what you're saying?
-No.

697
00:42:40,331 --> 00:42:41,530
Not at all.

698
00:42:41,531 --> 00:42:44,213
- I know he trusts you.
- Yeah.

699
00:42:44,214 --> 00:42:48,133
Then carry on.

700
00:42:54,133 --> 00:42:57,205
OK, there's something called
Central Bio Labs, it's in Ealing.

701
00:42:57,206 --> 00:42:59,445
It's accredited by the ministry
to carry out tests

702
00:42:59,446 --> 00:43:01,621
on behalf of the civil courts.

703
00:43:01,622 --> 00:43:03,370
What do you want to find out?

704
00:43:03,371 --> 00:43:06,101
I want to know if these
two people are related.

705
00:43:06,102 --> 00:43:08,921
Is this the comb
that came through the post?

706
00:43:12,181 --> 00:43:14,890
Look, Joy...

707
00:43:14,891 --> 00:43:17,301
You have three children
and you're the family breadwinner

708
00:43:17,302 --> 00:43:19,570
because your husband is
on a charge of selling cigarettes,

709
00:43:19,571 --> 00:43:22,167
illegally, outside a pub in Bromley.

710
00:43:22,810 --> 00:43:24,039
Am I right?

711
00:43:25,301 --> 00:43:28,693
And we both know how you testified
in Peter's court case.

712
00:43:28,694 --> 00:43:32,866
So I think, at this moment,
I can rely on you to be discreet.

713
00:43:33,813 --> 00:43:35,413
Yes, you can.

714
00:43:35,414 --> 00:43:37,210
Not a word at the lab
when you're there.

715
00:43:37,211 --> 00:43:38,933
And not a word to Vanessa
when you get back.

716
00:43:38,934 --> 00:43:40,469
Agreed.

717
00:43:40,470 --> 00:43:42,619
They can do it in 90 minutes.

718
00:43:43,690 --> 00:43:45,690
Get up from your desk.

719
00:43:57,493 --> 00:44:02,010
There's 50 quid for your cabs.

720
00:44:25,810 --> 00:44:28,810
Sorry about the wait.

721
00:44:28,811 --> 00:44:30,850
How do you like British American?

722
00:44:30,851 --> 00:44:32,890
Pretty impressive, huh?

723
00:44:32,891 --> 00:44:35,650
- Very.
- We're giving you

724
00:44:44,050 --> 00:44:46,330
Great you could make dinner.

725
00:44:46,331 --> 00:44:49,461
Thanks. No, I...I wanted to.

726
00:44:49,462 --> 00:44:51,970
I thought this place
would make you laugh.

727
00:44:51,971 --> 00:44:54,730
- Crazy, isn't it?
- Yeah, crazy!

728
00:44:54,731 --> 00:44:57,653
A lot of people who take
themselves too seriously.

729
00:44:57,654 --> 00:45:01,348
Still, no reason why WE can't relax.

730
00:45:06,293 --> 00:45:09,493
So, how do you like Washington?

731
00:45:09,494 --> 00:45:11,541
Yeah, erm...

732
00:45:11,542 --> 00:45:14,293
- I went shopping with my sister today.
- Where?

733
00:45:14,294 --> 00:45:17,173
Oh, Bendels at, uh, Dupont Circle.

734
00:45:17,174 --> 00:45:18,645
Do you know it?

735
00:45:18,646 --> 00:45:20,810
I'm not good on handbags.

736
00:45:30,010 --> 00:45:31,893
Oh, what's this?

737
00:45:31,894 --> 00:45:34,773
That's just grapefruit juice.

738
00:45:34,774 --> 00:45:36,437
Cheers.

739
00:45:36,438 --> 00:45:37,761
Cheers.

740
00:45:58,261 --> 00:46:00,641
Thanks.

741
00:46:28,213 --> 00:46:29,986
Hello?

742
00:46:31,861 --> 00:46:33,783
Yeah, yeah, it's me.

743
00:46:35,170 --> 00:46:38,005
Oh, my God, that's great.

744
00:46:38,006 --> 00:46:39,610
Yeah. Yeah, send it on.

745
00:46:39,611 --> 00:46:42,164
I'll be with you
as soon as I can.

746
00:46:42,970 --> 00:46:43,420
Thank you.

747
00:46:51,189 --> 00:46:54,083
- You OK?
- Sure.

748
00:46:55,930 --> 00:46:59,701
I didn't tell you, but I think I
have to go back to London tomorrow.

749
00:46:59,702 --> 00:47:02,325
When was her birthday, your sister?

750
00:47:02,326 --> 00:47:04,210
It was last night.

751
00:47:04,211 --> 00:47:06,933
Shame. I was hoping
you'd stay longer.

752
00:47:06,934 --> 00:47:09,204
I poured you a brandy.

753
00:47:11,221 --> 00:47:12,489
Thanks.

754
00:47:19,989 --> 00:47:22,485
- I should go.
- I'll get you a cab.

755
00:47:22,486 --> 00:47:25,385
Actually, I need to walk.

756
00:47:28,570 --> 00:47:31,783
If you're ever back in Washington,
be sure to look me up.

757
00:47:32,410 --> 00:47:33,850
Sure.

758
00:47:33,851 --> 00:47:35,323
I'll wait for it.

759
00:47:37,525 --> 00:47:39,537
Thanks for dinner.

760
00:48:12,021 --> 00:48:13,301
Nadia?

761
00:48:13,302 --> 00:48:15,610
- Charmaine?
- Charmian, yeah.

762
00:48:15,611 --> 00:48:18,130
Thank you so much for calling.
I, uh...

763
00:48:18,131 --> 00:48:20,213
I appreciate it, I really do.

764
00:48:20,214 --> 00:48:22,581
- Come in.
- Thank you.

765
00:48:22,582 --> 00:48:24,629
This is really kind of you.

766
00:48:24,630 --> 00:48:27,061
And you're sure you don't mind
going on record?

767
00:48:27,062 --> 00:48:30,069
Why wouldn't I?
What have I got to lose?

768
00:48:30,070 --> 00:48:32,245
Mum. Charmian.

769
00:48:32,246 --> 00:48:34,402
- Hi.
- Hi.

770
00:48:55,349 --> 00:48:58,613
- Old school.
- I...

771
00:48:58,614 --> 00:49:01,501
Believe it or not,
they're actually safer.

772
00:49:09,301 --> 00:49:11,890
I didn't like British American.

773
00:49:11,891 --> 00:49:14,890
It was all meant to be
so grand and important

774
00:49:14,891 --> 00:49:17,941
and such a highfalutin place,
but it wasn't.

775
00:49:17,942 --> 00:49:19,810
The other girls, they paid off.

776
00:49:19,811 --> 00:49:23,957
But me, they didn't, because they
didn't think I was worth anything.

777
00:49:23,958 --> 00:49:26,773
Can you tell me
about Peter Laurence?

778
00:49:26,774 --> 00:49:28,821
This was an international event.

779
00:49:28,822 --> 00:49:30,959
Meant to be about Western values.

780
00:49:30,984 --> 00:49:32,178
Meant to be?

781
00:49:32,203 --> 00:49:35,442
Really, it was a chance
for interested parties

782
00:49:35,443 --> 00:49:37,620
to meet in discreet surroundings.

783
00:49:38,558 --> 00:49:40,158
So what went wrong?

784
00:49:40,159 --> 00:49:43,166
I'd seen Laurence
once or twice before.

785
00:49:43,167 --> 00:49:45,342
Actually, I really liked him.

786
00:49:45,343 --> 00:49:48,867
He treats everyone the same,
however lowly you are.

787
00:49:48,868 --> 00:49:51,627
- So what happened?
- He wasn't officially there.

788
00:49:51,628 --> 00:49:53,726
He wasn't on the schedule.

789
00:49:53,727 --> 00:49:56,734
But he did have meetings
to discuss deregulation.

790
00:49:56,735 --> 00:49:58,827
In this case, pharmaceuticals.

791
00:49:58,828 --> 00:50:01,790
- He was very passionate.
- In what way?

792
00:50:01,791 --> 00:50:05,118
He said it was impossible for a
public health service to function

793
00:50:05,119 --> 00:50:07,587
properly in the best interests
of all the people.

794
00:50:07,588 --> 00:50:09,987
And what did he mean by that?

795
00:50:09,988 --> 00:50:14,233
He said what Britain needed was what
he called discreet privatisation.

796
00:50:14,639 --> 00:50:18,147
He gave advice on how to get
American practises and drugs

797
00:50:18,148 --> 00:50:20,307
into the British health care system.

798
00:50:20,308 --> 00:50:22,827
Nadia, you're saying he was present.

799
00:50:22,828 --> 00:50:25,462
Can you confirm he was paid
for this advice?

800
00:50:25,854 --> 00:50:28,350
Depends on what you call paid.

801
00:50:28,351 --> 00:50:30,531
Officially, he was paid
to give a speech.

802
00:50:31,486 --> 00:50:32,766
How much?

803
00:50:33,125 --> 00:50:36,005
Half a million dollars.

804
00:50:36,030 --> 00:50:38,787
That's a hell of a price
for giving a speech.

805
00:50:38,788 --> 00:50:42,367
Lots of expensive speeches
at British American. Go figure.

806
00:50:43,947 --> 00:50:46,014
Can you remember
how he got the money?

807
00:50:46,015 --> 00:50:47,998
He got paid through a shell company.

808
00:50:48,766 --> 00:50:51,107
Was it Stanfield Titles?

809
00:50:52,286 --> 00:50:54,132
Yeah.

810
00:50:57,150 --> 00:50:59,518
You don't know how long
I've been searching for someone

811
00:50:59,519 --> 00:51:01,347
willing to go on the record.

812
00:51:01,348 --> 00:51:02,820
Now you've found her.

813
00:51:08,350 --> 00:51:09,694
Just thank you and...

814
00:51:09,695 --> 00:51:11,710
Thanks for the drink.

815
00:51:24,350 --> 00:51:26,717
- Hey.
- Hey. You're still up.

816
00:51:26,742 --> 00:51:28,999
I wanted to be sure you were OK.

817
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,007
Luke, I just had
the most fantastic meeting.

818
00:51:32,008 --> 00:51:34,759
I've finally found someone
who's going to go on record

819
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,157
and say that Peter Laurence
was in Washington on that day.

820
00:51:39,439 --> 00:51:41,679
You're sounding a little blurry,
Charmian.

821
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,001
Hey!

822
00:51:44,495 --> 00:51:47,119
Look, Luke, can I call you back
in, like, 20 minutes?

823
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,719
Will you still be up?

824
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:49,999
OK.

825
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,588
Lady, where you going?

826
00:52:07,855 --> 00:52:15,748
I just want to talk to you.

827
00:52:15,749 --> 00:52:18,991
Lady, come on.

828
00:52:18,992 --> 00:52:21,268
You don't even know
where you're going.

829
00:52:26,548 --> 00:52:28,975
I wanted to make something special
to celebrate,

830
00:52:28,976 --> 00:52:31,791
- but I didn't have enough time to shop.
- Celebrate what?

831
00:52:31,792 --> 00:52:33,420
Your being home.

832
00:52:40,948 --> 00:52:44,428
Have you spoken to your father
about the pictures?

833
00:52:44,429 --> 00:52:46,453
I went to London to tell him.

834
00:52:51,148 --> 00:52:53,551
I have a feeling this family
needs to kick up

835
00:52:53,552 --> 00:52:55,759
to a whole new level of honesty.

836
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:06,543
Do you know
that Dad has a girlfriend,

837
00:53:06,544 --> 00:53:07,909
or do you simply not ask?

838
00:53:09,679 --> 00:53:12,687
No, Lily, I don't know that.

839
00:53:12,688 --> 00:53:15,055
I'm not quite sure how you do.

840
00:53:15,056 --> 00:53:18,484
Can you turn from the table
and look at me, please?

841
00:53:18,509 --> 00:53:19,469
Thank you.

842
00:53:20,128 --> 00:53:22,863
I'm also not quite sure
why you want to tell me.

843
00:53:23,968 --> 00:53:27,424
When he's in London, he stays
the night with a librarian.

844
00:53:27,425 --> 00:53:32,224
Not the kind who stamps books,
the kind who handles manuscripts.

845
00:53:32,225 --> 00:53:33,826
Did you know that?

846
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:36,451
Did you?

847
00:53:36,768 --> 00:53:39,459
I did and I didn't.

848
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:49,124
Can you call Dad, please? I think
we need to get the family together.

849
00:53:54,048 --> 00:53:57,696
- Sir, it's your wife on line one.
- I'm working. I'll call her back.

850
00:53:57,697 --> 00:53:59,744
She says it's the only time
she's ever insisted

851
00:53:59,745 --> 00:54:02,189
you pick up the phone right away.

852
00:54:02,190 --> 00:54:03,843
One second.

853
00:54:06,629 --> 00:54:08,015
Yeah?

854
00:54:09,989 --> 00:54:12,140
Hold on.

855
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,084
Would you mind?

856
00:54:25,984 --> 00:54:27,496
Yeah.

857
00:54:39,296 --> 00:54:40,589
Well?

858
00:54:40,590 --> 00:54:43,589
I've got a problem.

859
00:54:43,590 --> 00:54:47,069
Lily turned up in Hastings
and told her mother

860
00:54:47,070 --> 00:54:50,257
that I have a girlfriend
in Marylebone.

861
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:55,616
I always assumed Helen knew.
Didn't she?

862
00:54:55,617 --> 00:54:58,880
Yeah, er, thanks, Sydney.
I think we're done for tonight.

863
00:54:58,881 --> 00:55:00,480
Goodnight, sir.

864
00:55:00,481 --> 00:55:02,392
Thanks.

865
00:55:26,464 --> 00:55:29,991
This is Peter Laurence.

Yeah?

867
00:55:45,030 --> 00:55:47,968
Peter, I've got some news.

868
00:55:47,969 --> 00:55:51,680
I did the DNA test
with the comb that she sent me.

869
00:55:51,681 --> 00:55:53,081
What...?

870
00:55:54,509 --> 00:55:58,144
What on earth were you doing?
I told you not to do that.

871
00:55:58,145 --> 00:55:59,808
Why did you do that?

872
00:55:59,809 --> 00:56:02,624
What was I supposed to do?
I thought it was important.

873
00:56:02,625 --> 00:56:05,312
What matters is that it's positive.

874
00:56:05,313 --> 00:56:07,040
Peter, you have a daughter.

875
00:56:07,041 --> 00:56:10,752
We don't know who she is,
but we know that she exists.

876
00:56:10,753 --> 00:56:12,544
What do you want me to do?

877
00:56:14,807 --> 00:56:19,908
