1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:02,441
Ms Bello claims the affair
happened four years ago,

2
00:00:02,446 --> 00:00:04,882
while the MP was visiting Nigeria.

3
00:00:05,906 --> 00:00:08,426
Those are the guys I saw
getting into the grey van.

4
00:00:08,427 --> 00:00:11,635
To tell you the truth, I'd rather
avoid this place altogether.

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,066
Not easy when half your clients
are in the same building.

6
00:00:14,067 --> 00:00:17,252
Actually, Mr Knox, I
came to ask for your help.

7
00:00:17,257 --> 00:00:18,539
I see.

8
00:00:18,784 --> 00:00:19,901
The mask.

9
00:00:20,046 --> 00:00:21,773
Control to Kilo 1.

10
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,106
Gemma, Operation
Vanguard is compromised.

11
00:00:25,107 --> 00:00:26,666
The seventh floor is down.

12
00:00:26,667 --> 00:00:28,306
Vanguard needs a new home.

13
00:00:28,471 --> 00:00:30,621
You accuse me of sabotage, and...

14
00:00:30,921 --> 00:00:32,226
And now you want my help.

15
00:00:32,227 --> 00:00:35,666
China's going to lose the facial-rec
bid. The US are waiting in line.

16
00:00:35,667 --> 00:00:39,186
We carry the same
burdens. Guilt and regret.

17
00:00:39,531 --> 00:00:41,026
If you want to give
yourself the best chance,

18
00:00:41,027 --> 00:00:42,306
you'll free yourself of them.

19
00:00:42,307 --> 00:00:43,666
In an exclusive interview,

20
00:00:43,667 --> 00:00:46,901
we speak to Victoria Bello
from her home in Lagos.

21
00:00:46,906 --> 00:00:49,146
This isn't about facial rec
this is about me.

22
00:00:49,147 --> 00:00:51,466
- I beg your pardon, Mr Turner?
- I said, I hope you're proud,

23
00:00:51,467 --> 00:00:53,146
forcing my family away from their home.

24
00:00:53,147 --> 00:00:54,586
He looks like you.

25
00:00:54,859 --> 00:00:57,612
- What?
- Victoria Bello's son, Amandi.

26
00:00:57,617 --> 00:00:59,143
I've been looking at him.

27
00:00:59,148 --> 00:01:00,426
What are you talking about?

28
00:01:00,431 --> 00:01:02,656
Free Shaun? As in Shaun Emery?

29
00:01:04,882 --> 00:01:08,385
Your paternity test has come back
negative, you must be delighted.

30
00:01:08,390 --> 00:01:10,945
Why do you think she made those claims?

31
00:01:10,950 --> 00:01:12,354
I understand.

32
00:01:12,359 --> 00:01:15,866
Some people will go to desperate
lengths to jump the queue.

33
00:01:15,867 --> 00:01:17,626
Mr Knox, do we have a match?

34
00:01:17,776 --> 00:01:19,061
Yes.

35
00:01:19,261 --> 00:01:20,981
Nikolai Mirsky.

36
00:01:23,367 --> 00:01:24,501
Hello?

37
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:26,186
Hello, Isaac.

38
00:02:17,782 --> 00:02:19,382
Room service.

39
00:02:24,608 --> 00:02:27,413
What the fuck is going on?

40
00:02:27,418 --> 00:02:29,595
Isaac, Isaac,

41
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,426
this place is rigged with cameras
please don't do anything silly.

42
00:02:44,934 --> 00:02:47,054
This is nice at least.

43
00:02:48,359 --> 00:02:49,999
Presidential Suite.

44
00:02:50,930 --> 00:02:52,170
Apt.

45
00:02:54,287 --> 00:02:57,847
You, er, you might want
to put some clothes on.

46
00:02:58,621 --> 00:03:01,819
Start... talking.

47
00:03:02,100 --> 00:03:03,706
Yeah, I'm not supposed to do that, mate.

48
00:03:03,707 --> 00:03:05,804
I'm just here to get you.

49
00:03:08,663 --> 00:03:11,116
- To get me?
- £11 for pistachio nuts?

50
00:03:11,121 --> 00:03:12,865
- Are you having a laugh?
- So help me God,

51
00:03:12,870 --> 00:03:15,501
I will throttle you with my bare hands.

52
00:03:15,506 --> 00:03:17,466
I don't care how many
cameras are watching.

53
00:03:17,467 --> 00:03:21,185
What the hell were you doing
outside my door pretending to be me?

54
00:03:22,700 --> 00:03:24,860
What? But... Pretending to...?

55
00:03:26,725 --> 00:03:29,461
I guess they're just, you
know, just trying to get in.

56
00:03:29,466 --> 00:03:31,626
Who? Who? Who's trying to get in?

57
00:03:32,295 --> 00:03:33,666
Look, I need you to know, mate,

58
00:03:33,667 --> 00:03:36,352
I honestly had no idea
this was going to happen.

59
00:03:36,357 --> 00:03:38,805
Aliza, she is completely in
the dark. I only found out

60
00:03:38,810 --> 00:03:41,412
the truth of it myself last night.
I haven't slept a bloody wink.

61
00:03:42,795 --> 00:03:45,461
You know, I would find
it a lot easier to open up

62
00:03:45,466 --> 00:03:46,858
to you if you unclenched your fists

63
00:03:46,862 --> 00:03:49,133
and stopped looking like
you're about to hit me.

64
00:03:54,725 --> 00:03:56,881
It's probably why they
asked me to get you.

65
00:03:57,350 --> 00:03:59,826
People look at me and think I can
handle myself, but the truth is

66
00:03:59,827 --> 00:04:01,906
- I am a bloody coward.
- Rhys, shut up. Shut up.

67
00:04:01,907 --> 00:04:04,146
Just shut up and listen,

68
00:04:04,147 --> 00:04:06,146
cos I won't say this again.

69
00:04:06,325 --> 00:04:08,085
Who are they?

70
00:04:13,229 --> 00:04:15,029
Well...

71
00:04:57,082 --> 00:05:00,082

00:05:33,806 --> 00:05:35,526
Bathroom's free.

73
00:05:42,052 --> 00:05:49,052
_

74
00:05:55,581 --> 00:05:59,615
The real question here is
did the Home Office knowingly

75
00:05:59,620 --> 00:06:01,540
obstruct Victoria Bello's application?

76
00:06:01,545 --> 00:06:02,906
Daddy!

77
00:06:04,771 --> 00:06:06,342
Yes!

78
00:06:08,208 --> 00:06:12,646
Oh, hello. Hello. I missed you.

79
00:06:14,498 --> 00:06:16,226
Hey.

80
00:06:16,553 --> 00:06:20,641
So, um, it's safe to come back home,

81
00:06:20,646 --> 00:06:24,717
whenever you're ready. There's
no press outside. It's all over.

82
00:06:24,865 --> 00:06:27,118
Are you coming home, Daddy?

83
00:06:27,123 --> 00:06:30,906
Um, well, Daddy has
to go back to London.

84
00:06:30,907 --> 00:06:33,639
But I'll be back as soon as I can. Yeah?

85
00:06:34,175 --> 00:06:37,060
- Go and get your things.
- Come on. Come on.

86
00:06:40,267 --> 00:06:42,907
So, you saw it? The result?

87
00:06:44,693 --> 00:06:47,615
I thought there wasn't
going to be a paternity test.

88
00:06:47,620 --> 00:06:50,060
You said they were going
to fake the results.

89
00:06:53,853 --> 00:06:55,818
It's the right result, Simmy.

90
00:06:57,584 --> 00:06:59,144
What's up?

91
00:07:00,221 --> 00:07:02,842
Well, if she was making it all up,

92
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,673
why did the Home Office
hold back her application?

93
00:07:07,776 --> 00:07:10,496
That's exactly what
I intend to find out.

94
00:07:13,295 --> 00:07:14,575
Right?

95
00:08:02,466 --> 00:08:04,303
Make yourselves at home.

96
00:08:05,399 --> 00:08:07,537
The bottom floor's all yours.

97
00:08:07,982 --> 00:08:10,386
As long as you stay
in your allotted zones,

98
00:08:11,182 --> 00:08:13,622
everybody will get along just fine.

99
00:08:19,824 --> 00:08:23,025
You see the latest video
release of your protegee?

100
00:08:25,892 --> 00:08:27,652
You showed me.

101
00:08:28,461 --> 00:08:30,373
Last night?

102
00:08:31,298 --> 00:08:33,262
I'm talking about this
morning. We got the red flag.

103
00:08:33,266 --> 00:08:35,906
Don't you get updates from Chelten Ham?

104
00:08:37,293 --> 00:08:38,853
Cheltenham.

105
00:08:40,061 --> 00:08:43,680
It's a bit like cereal,
only it's called Free Shaun.

106
00:08:43,685 --> 00:08:46,666
Or I might go more
esoteric, like The Bus Stop.

107
00:08:47,271 --> 00:08:48,557
What are you talking about?

108
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,435
Free Shaun? As in Shaun Emery?

109
00:08:52,026 --> 00:08:54,084
What are you talking about?

110
00:08:54,546 --> 00:08:56,662
Free Shaun? As in Shaun Emery?

111
00:08:57,995 --> 00:09:00,195
She knows she's being watched.

112
00:09:03,253 --> 00:09:05,333
Nothing changes.

113
00:09:07,911 --> 00:09:09,781
We continue as planned.

114
00:09:12,379 --> 00:09:14,699
It's your rodeo now.

115
00:09:56,459 --> 00:09:59,438
Did you obstruct Victoria Bello's
application, Mr Turner?

116
00:09:59,443 --> 00:10:01,838
Is this a crisis for
the Home Office, Mr Turner?

117
00:10:01,843 --> 00:10:03,607
Mr Turner, do you believe the media now?

118
00:10:03,612 --> 00:10:06,599
- No hoodie today, Zac?
- I have every faith

119
00:10:06,604 --> 00:10:10,009
in the Home Secretary.
He has my full support. Thank you.

120
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,000
_

121
00:10:30,050 --> 00:10:33,090
"Every faith in the Home
Sec"? What are you up to?

122
00:10:33,683 --> 00:10:36,256
- Where is Gill today?
- I'm not his private secretary.

123
00:10:36,261 --> 00:10:39,952
But you are on the server, aren't
you? How are you enjoying policy,

124
00:10:39,957 --> 00:10:41,866
by the way? I only ask cos
you spend most of your time

125
00:10:41,867 --> 00:10:43,666
seemingly checking my numbers.

126
00:10:43,667 --> 00:10:45,946
Which are spiking higher
than ever, by the way.

127
00:10:46,058 --> 00:10:47,808
Congrats on that.

128
00:10:47,813 --> 00:10:48,961
So, what's this?

129
00:10:48,966 --> 00:10:50,583
The old band back together again?

130
00:10:50,588 --> 00:10:52,566
What goes on tour and all that jazz?

131
00:10:52,787 --> 00:10:55,152
Cos I'm in. If you'll have me,
whack out the old...

132
00:10:55,421 --> 00:10:56,781
Rhys, could you...?

133
00:10:57,007 --> 00:11:00,733
I was just asking Aliza why
she's been tracking my stats.

134
00:11:00,738 --> 00:11:02,146
Good question.

135
00:11:02,652 --> 00:11:04,733
What do you expect? I've
always been Team Zac.

136
00:11:04,738 --> 00:11:07,504
To be fair, that is true.
Even when I was fired,

137
00:11:07,509 --> 00:11:08,597
you answered my calls.

138
00:11:08,602 --> 00:11:11,374
- I tried you, it wouldn't go through.
- Yeah. Fucking Vodafone.

139
00:11:11,894 --> 00:11:13,733
But then again, maybe
it was just a decoy

140
00:11:13,738 --> 00:11:16,840
to avoid doing what I actually
asked you to do, which was to dig up

141
00:11:16,845 --> 00:11:19,246
Victoria Bello's paperwork
and check for concerns.

142
00:11:19,644 --> 00:11:22,144
I thought that part of the
story would just... go away.

143
00:11:22,149 --> 00:11:24,324
- The front page news?
- Yeah, in The Guardian.

144
00:11:24,335 --> 00:11:26,501
Everyone else has gone with
"Lying Bitch", essentially.

145
00:11:27,082 --> 00:11:29,466
Anyway, none of it seems
to be doing you any harm.

146
00:11:30,285 --> 00:11:32,483
Aliza, there's going to be an inquiry

147
00:11:32,488 --> 00:11:35,240
and none of us are safe. If
the Home Secretary himself had

148
00:11:35,245 --> 00:11:37,725
a hand in obstructing
Bello's application,

149
00:11:37,730 --> 00:11:40,960
it's going to come out.
So, if you know anything,

150
00:11:40,965 --> 00:11:43,215
Aliza, you need to share it.

151
00:12:03,106 --> 00:12:04,986
I've been calling you all day.

152
00:12:05,457 --> 00:12:07,574
I-I-I've been in Salford, so...

153
00:12:07,918 --> 00:12:09,566
I saw you.

154
00:12:10,293 --> 00:12:12,026
BBC Breakfast.

155
00:12:12,031 --> 00:12:13,222
I assume that was you?

156
00:12:13,227 --> 00:12:16,978
Yes. So, look, I'm just on my way
to see the Home Secretary, so...

157
00:12:16,983 --> 00:12:19,783
On your way to becoming Home
Sec, according to Twitter.

158
00:12:20,772 --> 00:12:22,532
I need to speak to you.

159
00:12:37,121 --> 00:12:40,394
Gregory Knox came through.
The unmasking.

160
00:12:42,216 --> 00:12:45,815
We have a name. Nikolai Mirsky.

161
00:12:46,322 --> 00:12:47,851
Russian ex-military.

162
00:12:48,222 --> 00:12:50,670
I know. We need to get this to SO15.

163
00:12:50,675 --> 00:12:52,324
Except I can't explain how I came by it,

164
00:12:52,329 --> 00:12:54,396
so I suggest it comes from you.

165
00:12:54,773 --> 00:12:56,855
- Me?
- At the time of the attack,

166
00:12:56,860 --> 00:12:58,022
you were Security Minister.

167
00:12:58,027 --> 00:12:59,946
You had clearance to
any number of operations.

168
00:12:59,947 --> 00:13:02,558
All you need to do is say
you can't reveal the source.

169
00:13:02,952 --> 00:13:05,225
I-I-I don't know.

170
00:13:05,230 --> 00:13:07,586
It sounds a bit like
faking evidence to me.

171
00:13:09,066 --> 00:13:10,613
What?

172
00:13:11,113 --> 00:13:12,586
You've taken the footage,
manipulated it,

173
00:13:12,587 --> 00:13:14,546
now you want to hide where it came from.

174
00:13:14,547 --> 00:13:17,226
For use as intelligence, not evidence.

175
00:13:18,547 --> 00:13:20,140
Now you sound like a true believer.

176
00:13:20,690 --> 00:13:24,050
This is a visual on a Russian
state-sanctioned killer.

177
00:13:24,055 --> 00:13:27,312
We need to act.
We're the only ones that have it.

178
00:13:28,461 --> 00:13:31,061
Look, I know we have other battles.

179
00:13:31,276 --> 00:13:33,781
But we can't expose Correction
while we're under attack by

180
00:13:33,786 --> 00:13:36,930
a foreign power. We need
to win this one first.

181
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,040
Khadija heard your recording.

182
00:13:46,305 --> 00:13:48,517
The Home Secretary
discussing Correction.

183
00:13:48,522 --> 00:13:51,506
You mean Khadija Khan, who
interviewed Victoria Bello

184
00:13:51,507 --> 00:13:53,866
and claimed the Home Office
obstructed her application?

185
00:13:53,867 --> 00:13:57,108
Isaac, the deal is still intact.

186
00:14:07,151 --> 00:14:08,711
What deal?

187
00:14:19,076 --> 00:14:20,756
Somebody got to you.

188
00:14:22,335 --> 00:14:23,876
Didn't they?

189
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:25,782
I don't know what you're talking about.

190
00:14:25,787 --> 00:14:27,470
Jesus Christ! I'm not recording!

191
00:14:27,475 --> 00:14:29,986
I'm sorry, Detective, but I think
I've given you enough of my time.

192
00:14:29,987 --> 00:14:32,586
You can talk to me, Isaac. You
can trust me. Don't lie to me!

193
00:14:36,176 --> 00:14:38,858
You really think I need
to take this shit from you?

194
00:14:43,725 --> 00:14:47,261
You know how I know it
was you... on BBC Breakfast

195
00:14:47,266 --> 00:14:49,092
and not your deep-fake?

196
00:14:51,027 --> 00:14:52,707
You touched your cross.

197
00:14:55,881 --> 00:14:57,490
You run your thumb over the cross on

198
00:14:57,495 --> 00:14:58,802
your neck chain when you're anxious.

199
00:14:58,806 --> 00:15:01,486
- No, I don't.
- It's my job to notice things.

200
00:15:02,905 --> 00:15:06,865
Your deep-fake's never
done that. Only you.

201
00:15:11,735 --> 00:15:13,756
You're all right, Isaac.

202
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,858
Not that kind of
politician, like you said.

203
00:15:18,392 --> 00:15:20,021
Whatever's happened,

204
00:15:20,026 --> 00:15:23,436
whatever they've threatened
you with, I can help you.

205
00:15:24,146 --> 00:15:25,906
We can get through this.

206
00:15:30,892 --> 00:15:34,132
Who was it?! Who got to you?!

207
00:15:34,873 --> 00:15:37,764
Garland? The Home Secretary? Who?

208
00:15:39,421 --> 00:15:42,677
You have a case to
solve. I have a job to do.

209
00:15:42,682 --> 00:15:44,562
Other battles, like you said.

210
00:15:45,354 --> 00:15:49,780
So why don't we just get on
with it and go our separate ways?

211
00:16:13,662 --> 00:16:15,436
- Carey.
- Ma'am.

212
00:16:15,441 --> 00:16:18,056
I thought you'd like to know,
comms are back up.

213
00:16:18,061 --> 00:16:19,786
We're rolling out new units to all ops.

214
00:16:19,787 --> 00:16:21,746
What about the camera network?

215
00:16:21,853 --> 00:16:24,100
Secure. Vanguard has a new base.

216
00:16:24,405 --> 00:16:26,454
Or I could bring the comms to you?

217
00:16:26,459 --> 00:16:28,659
That is... if you're back at work?

218
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:36,290
- Meet me in an hour.
- Where do you want me, ma'am?

219
00:16:36,295 --> 00:16:38,639
Broadcasting House,
three o'clock, sharp.

220
00:16:38,644 --> 00:16:39,644
Yes, ma'am.

221
00:16:46,981 --> 00:16:49,901
Thanks to the intervention
of our US partners,

222
00:16:49,906 --> 00:16:52,975
Operation Vanguard is now secure.

223
00:16:53,386 --> 00:16:56,131
Vladimir Putin himself
couldn't compromise it.

224
00:16:57,261 --> 00:17:01,021
Although this remains a UK
counterterrorism operation,

225
00:17:01,026 --> 00:17:04,946
inside this building
you are in US territory,

226
00:17:04,947 --> 00:17:07,706
and you will operate in
accordance with US laws,

227
00:17:07,707 --> 00:17:11,500
regulations, and standard
operating procedures.

228
00:17:11,726 --> 00:17:13,346
Our hosts will be on hand at all times

229
00:17:13,347 --> 00:17:18,781
to support us through any,
uh, cultural differences.

230
00:17:18,786 --> 00:17:20,706
Connor here will be
leading a support team

231
00:17:20,707 --> 00:17:23,586
of technical operatives, alongside
someone many of you will be

232
00:17:23,587 --> 00:17:26,448
acquainted with already,
our very own DI Phillips,

233
00:17:26,453 --> 00:17:28,266
who's been on secondment
here for the past six months,

234
00:17:28,267 --> 00:17:30,946
and I'm pleased to say
hasn't picked up the accent.

235
00:17:32,946 --> 00:17:36,346
Um, I know you're all still reeling from

236
00:17:36,347 --> 00:17:41,866
the tragic loss of Detective
Sergeant Patrick Flynn,

237
00:17:42,229 --> 00:17:45,002
Specialist Firearms
Officer Jason McKenna

238
00:17:45,007 --> 00:17:47,367
and Specialist Firearms
Officer Lee Bradbury.

239
00:17:48,236 --> 00:17:53,851
But the way to... honour
our fallen colleagues...

240
00:17:55,330 --> 00:17:58,810
is to catch the scum
that took their lives.

241
00:18:01,748 --> 00:18:03,428
Thank you, sir.

242
00:18:05,088 --> 00:18:06,365
As Commander Hart said...

243
00:18:06,381 --> 00:18:09,026
Is he going to maintain
his stiff upper lip?

244
00:18:09,417 --> 00:18:11,297
I think I see it quivering.

245
00:18:12,546 --> 00:18:13,826
... with a much wider range

246
00:18:13,827 --> 00:18:16,106
of intelligence-gathering
tools at our disposal.

247
00:18:16,492 --> 00:18:17,876
Now, given the urgency,

248
00:18:17,881 --> 00:18:20,426
we've begun analysing existing
data from the operation,

249
00:18:20,730 --> 00:18:22,970
and we've uncovered a
few truffles already.

250
00:18:26,022 --> 00:18:28,756
Danny? Sir?

251
00:18:32,757 --> 00:18:34,967
A long time since you called me that.

252
00:18:36,341 --> 00:18:38,221
I just wanted to say thank you.

253
00:18:40,026 --> 00:18:42,226
That was the team talk we all needed.

254
00:18:42,492 --> 00:18:44,612
It's the last one you'll hear me give.

255
00:18:45,781 --> 00:18:48,261
I stopped by the Commissioner's
office this morning.

256
00:18:48,266 --> 00:18:51,066
- Handed in my 7-28.
- You're resigning?

257
00:18:51,479 --> 00:18:53,399
After Vanguard, I'm out.

258
00:18:56,779 --> 00:18:58,334
Don't worry, Gemma.

259
00:18:58,962 --> 00:19:01,042
I didn't give the real reason.

260
00:19:12,786 --> 00:19:15,706
I'm in the middle of a meeting.
I've got about two minutes.

261
00:19:15,707 --> 00:19:17,772
Did you have to interview her?

262
00:19:18,010 --> 00:19:19,282
I beg your pardon?

263
00:19:19,287 --> 00:19:21,546
Victoria Bello. Was
that really necessary?

264
00:19:22,818 --> 00:19:23,954
Last time I checked,

265
00:19:23,959 --> 00:19:26,146
I'm not required to
justify my editorial choices

266
00:19:26,147 --> 00:19:29,146
to the authorities. We're not
living in a police state yet.

267
00:19:29,147 --> 00:19:32,743
Well, I hope it was worth it. Cos
Isaac Turner is now out of the deal.

268
00:19:32,748 --> 00:19:34,595
What, because of that? Oh, please.

269
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,147
- You do not understand.
- I understand perfectly.

270
00:19:37,152 --> 00:19:40,376
I will call Zac myself,
show the requisite humility.

271
00:19:40,381 --> 00:19:42,786
It's a dance. You'd do
well to learn the steps.

272
00:19:42,787 --> 00:19:45,618
Learn this! I was with
Isaac Turner an hour ago.

273
00:19:45,623 --> 00:19:47,608
He wouldn't even admit we had a deal!

274
00:19:47,613 --> 00:19:49,436
He doesn't trust us,
and that is your fault.

275
00:19:49,441 --> 00:19:51,615
Lower your tone.

276
00:19:52,037 --> 00:19:54,399
I don't let anyone raise
their voice at me off camera.

277
00:19:54,404 --> 00:19:57,043
I am not anyone! You have
fucked it up, Khadija.

278
00:19:57,048 --> 00:19:58,528
For all of us!

279
00:20:04,499 --> 00:20:06,259
I thought we said three o'clock?

280
00:20:06,264 --> 00:20:08,461
I'd rather be early always.

281
00:20:09,426 --> 00:20:10,906
How much did you hear?

282
00:20:12,330 --> 00:20:13,730
Nothing.

283
00:20:14,466 --> 00:20:16,032
I brought your comms.

284
00:20:16,906 --> 00:20:19,981
And I thought you'd want
to know there's a new lead.

285
00:20:21,878 --> 00:20:24,238
Take me to the new base. I'll follow.

286
00:20:28,266 --> 00:20:29,626
After the presentation,

287
00:20:29,627 --> 00:20:32,466
the Home Secretary will
make what he promises will be

288
00:20:32,467 --> 00:20:34,433
a short announcement,

289
00:20:34,438 --> 00:20:37,977
and the Security Minister will
take questions from the press.

290
00:20:43,237 --> 00:20:46,661
Britain's border security
will soon be bolstered

291
00:20:46,666 --> 00:20:49,771
by a digital layer of protection,

292
00:20:49,776 --> 00:20:53,230
provided by a company who
count among their clients

293
00:20:53,235 --> 00:20:54,755
the US Pentagon.

294
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,946
All of us who value the security

295
00:20:56,947 --> 00:20:59,919
and sovereignty of our nation

296
00:20:59,924 --> 00:21:04,830
will value the support of
Clear Horizons AI. Thank you.

297
00:21:04,940 --> 00:21:06,581
Care to make a statement
about Victoria Bello?

298
00:21:06,585 --> 00:21:08,363
Have you spoken to Isaac Turner
today, Home Secretary?

299
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:10,104
Did anyone at the Home Office obstruct

300
00:21:10,109 --> 00:21:12,901
Victoria Bello's application,
Home Secretary?

301
00:21:43,644 --> 00:21:45,302
This is where the magic happens.

302
00:21:45,307 --> 00:21:48,521
- Tom. What have I missed?
- Lots, by the looks of things.

303
00:21:48,526 --> 00:21:50,546
Well, that's what comes
of skipping the briefings.

304
00:21:50,547 --> 00:21:52,646
We can't hold the class
up just for you, Carey.

305
00:21:52,651 --> 00:21:55,426
I've been on compassionate leave, so...

306
00:21:55,705 --> 00:21:57,036
Be compassionate.

307
00:21:57,041 --> 00:22:00,104
No time for compassion. Not
in the middle of a manhunt.

308
00:22:10,336 --> 00:22:11,896
Who's the target?

309
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,002
A Russian National. Nikolai Mirsky.

310
00:22:16,588 --> 00:22:19,824
We've got every facial-rec
system in the UK looking for him

311
00:22:19,829 --> 00:22:22,309
and every ANPR looking for his van.

312
00:22:24,888 --> 00:22:28,208
Do we, um, do we know the source?

313
00:22:28,213 --> 00:22:30,447
I mean, how did he get on our radar?

314
00:22:30,452 --> 00:22:32,172
You think they'd tell me?

315
00:22:35,614 --> 00:22:37,021
How are you feeling, Rachel?

316
00:22:37,026 --> 00:22:39,182
Ma'am. Just getting up to speed.

317
00:22:39,871 --> 00:22:42,028
I appreciate you coming
back to work so soon,

318
00:22:42,033 --> 00:22:43,817
after the experience you've had.

319
00:22:43,822 --> 00:22:46,546
I'd rather... keep going.

320
00:22:46,984 --> 00:22:48,664
Rest when you're dead.

321
00:22:49,314 --> 00:22:51,194
Can I show you something?

322
00:22:59,363 --> 00:23:03,163
Frank, I felt DCI Carey should be
briefed on the ongoing developments.

323
00:23:04,986 --> 00:23:06,546
Welcome to America.

324
00:23:10,412 --> 00:23:12,232
- Is that...?
- The hospital.

325
00:23:12,237 --> 00:23:14,946
Staff entrance. The night
of DS Flynn's murder.

326
00:23:15,415 --> 00:23:19,190
I thought whoever did this took
over the camera network completely?

327
00:23:21,305 --> 00:23:25,225
This section of the
briefing is sensitive.

328
00:23:25,331 --> 00:23:26,771
Understood.

329
00:23:27,541 --> 00:23:31,565
Every state has its own style
when it comes to subterfuge.

330
00:23:31,885 --> 00:23:33,841
Its own telltale signs.

331
00:23:33,846 --> 00:23:37,057
The Russians, for instance,
very sloppy. Online and off.

332
00:23:37,062 --> 00:23:40,622
They hacked SO15, but it appears
they didn't consider our...

333
00:23:42,122 --> 00:23:43,722
Auxiliary network.

334
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,878
You can access the real footage?

335
00:23:45,883 --> 00:23:47,403
We can recover it

336
00:23:47,408 --> 00:23:50,583
from a covert signal
embedded in the time code.

337
00:23:50,588 --> 00:23:53,146
It's kind of like scratching
the oil paint off a canvas

338
00:23:53,147 --> 00:23:55,622
to reveal the pencil drawing underneath.

339
00:23:55,627 --> 00:23:58,768
Stop me if I'm... getting too technical.

340
00:24:01,738 --> 00:24:05,290
So, de-correction, then?

341
00:24:08,878 --> 00:24:12,619
Eventually we'll recover all
the footage from the attack.

342
00:24:12,931 --> 00:24:18,065
But, for now, our focus, Todd, is this.

343
00:24:19,101 --> 00:24:20,901
Nikolai Mirsky.

344
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,232
I-I thought Isaac Turner's
witness statement said

345
00:24:28,237 --> 00:24:30,466
the killers were wearing face masks.

346
00:24:30,685 --> 00:24:33,135
Like I said, sloppy.

347
00:24:34,778 --> 00:24:35,846
Result.

348
00:24:35,939 --> 00:24:38,091
Intelligence on the suspect is patchy.

349
00:24:38,096 --> 00:24:41,896
Facial rec points us to a
private security firm in Belarus.

350
00:24:41,901 --> 00:24:45,057
Russian black ops, by any other name.

351
00:24:45,229 --> 00:24:47,669
Do we know if the
suspect's still in the UK?

352
00:24:47,674 --> 00:24:50,266
They hacked the feeds at Heathrow
last time, they could do it again.

353
00:24:50,267 --> 00:24:51,986
The manhunt is under way, Rachel.

354
00:24:52,986 --> 00:24:54,986
I'd like you to run something else.

355
00:24:55,185 --> 00:24:59,282
DC Tan is briefed and making progress,

356
00:24:59,287 --> 00:25:04,247
but this requires the leadership
of someone fully conversant.

357
00:25:04,252 --> 00:25:05,386
What does, ma'am?

358
00:25:05,387 --> 00:25:07,502
The criminal case against the suspect.

359
00:25:08,330 --> 00:25:10,146
We need an evidence dossier,

360
00:25:10,697 --> 00:25:13,135
robust enough to put
in front of a judge.

361
00:25:13,674 --> 00:25:17,932
The more evidence we can compile
against Nikolai Mirsky,

362
00:25:18,354 --> 00:25:19,901
the better.

363
00:25:21,495 --> 00:25:22,895
Understood.

364
00:25:31,701 --> 00:25:33,541
You know the way back.

365
00:25:42,741 --> 00:25:45,979
I appreciate the chance
to speak, Home Secretary.

366
00:25:46,239 --> 00:25:48,169
I imagine you can guess
what this is about.

367
00:25:48,174 --> 00:25:51,386
Uh, well, let me see. You told
BBC Breakfast I failed to deliver.

368
00:25:51,387 --> 00:25:53,432
You told reporters I
have your full support.

369
00:25:53,437 --> 00:25:57,325
So, at a push, I'd guess you were
trying to steal my fucking job?

370
00:25:57,330 --> 00:26:00,052
So, I should have said
you don't have my support?

371
00:26:00,057 --> 00:26:02,778
You'll be saying the department
needs a breath of fresh air next.

372
00:26:02,783 --> 00:26:03,986
You're fucking me over, Isaac.

373
00:26:03,987 --> 00:26:06,426
Have the decency to look me in
the eye while you're doing it.

374
00:26:06,427 --> 00:26:08,308
You can hardly blame me
for leaving the department

375
00:26:08,312 --> 00:26:09,815
acutely aware of its shortcomings.

376
00:26:09,820 --> 00:26:12,502
Not to mention our unkept promise
of firm but fair immigration.

377
00:26:12,507 --> 00:26:14,347
Oh, don't quote the manifesto at me.

378
00:26:14,666 --> 00:26:16,986
You weren't even elected
when we wrote that.

379
00:26:20,492 --> 00:26:22,492
After all I've done for you.

380
00:26:24,218 --> 00:26:25,738
Go on.

381
00:26:26,474 --> 00:26:29,074
No, what did you do
for me, Home Secretary?

382
00:26:31,111 --> 00:26:32,991
Take a wild guess.

383
00:26:34,196 --> 00:26:37,076
I mean, I thought I was selected
for government by the PM?

384
00:26:37,981 --> 00:26:41,479
But if you had a hand in making me

385
00:26:41,484 --> 00:26:42,654
Security Minister, Home Secretary...

386
00:26:42,658 --> 00:26:45,057
I'm not talking about
making you a minister.

387
00:26:45,581 --> 00:26:47,061
So, what are you talking about?

388
00:26:47,066 --> 00:26:49,106
I'm talking about that girl.

389
00:26:50,101 --> 00:26:51,741
Victoria Bello?

390
00:26:51,746 --> 00:26:54,880
Unless you have others
that I don't know about?

391
00:26:54,885 --> 00:26:56,739
I told you, that was all lies.

392
00:26:56,744 --> 00:26:58,935
You told me that a few days ago.

393
00:26:58,940 --> 00:27:01,692
That application hit
my desk six months back.

394
00:27:01,697 --> 00:27:05,099
Sorry, hit your desk? Why yours?

395
00:27:05,104 --> 00:27:07,466
Why don't you ask
your private secretary?

396
00:27:07,467 --> 00:27:08,906
Aliza?

397
00:27:09,271 --> 00:27:10,421
She came to you?

398
00:27:10,426 --> 00:27:12,946
Yep. All flummoxed,
convinced it was real,

399
00:27:12,947 --> 00:27:15,346
convinced that love child was yours,

400
00:27:15,347 --> 00:27:19,174
and convinced, as I was, that it
would be the bloody ruin of you.

401
00:27:19,179 --> 00:27:20,979
And then, so you...?

402
00:27:24,190 --> 00:27:26,466
The file found its way
to the bottom of the pile.

403
00:27:26,783 --> 00:27:30,502
Got lost. Drowned in
a sea of bureaucracy.

404
00:27:31,997 --> 00:27:33,637
You're welcome.

405
00:27:36,026 --> 00:27:38,146
So, that's how it's done, is it?

406
00:27:39,891 --> 00:27:42,091
And all that because
you assumed it was true.

407
00:27:42,096 --> 00:27:45,901
Don't be so bloody supercilious.
Are you really that surprised?

408
00:27:46,779 --> 00:27:50,173
No, Home Secretary, I'm
not surprised. In fact,

409
00:27:50,178 --> 00:27:51,866
it's exactly what I thought.

410
00:27:52,592 --> 00:27:55,061
I just needed to hear you say it.

411
00:27:56,271 --> 00:27:58,766
What do you mean? To say what?
What are you talking about?

412
00:27:58,771 --> 00:28:01,115
Don't walk away from me. Don't you...!

413
00:28:02,079 --> 00:28:05,421
What is that?! Are you recording this?!

414
00:28:05,426 --> 00:28:08,826
Are you mad?! Recording the Home
Secretary without his consent!

415
00:28:08,959 --> 00:28:11,104
That is a breach of national security!

416
00:28:11,109 --> 00:28:12,509
I will have you stripped

417
00:28:12,514 --> 00:28:15,346
of every clearance level
there is, you little prick.

418
00:28:16,946 --> 00:28:20,985
It's insurance, Rowan, in
case you try to deny it.

419
00:28:20,990 --> 00:28:22,833
Deny it?! What are you talking about?!

420
00:28:22,838 --> 00:28:25,918
Why are you doing this to me, Isaac?!

421
00:28:27,993 --> 00:28:29,959
It's nothing personal.

422
00:29:10,456 --> 00:29:13,266
Is it possible to embed
a video in time code?

423
00:29:13,608 --> 00:29:15,901
You don't do small talk, do you, Carey?

424
00:29:16,100 --> 00:29:18,902
- How's your day going, Tom?
- Not bad. How's yours?

425
00:29:18,907 --> 00:29:19,972
Good.

426
00:29:19,977 --> 00:29:22,347
Is it possible to embed
a video in time code?

427
00:29:22,574 --> 00:29:25,426
I think you mean a time code
signal in audio, don't you?

428
00:29:25,589 --> 00:29:27,691
Nope. I mean what I said.

429
00:29:27,902 --> 00:29:29,495
Well, then, you're talking bollocks.

430
00:29:29,792 --> 00:29:32,526
That's your technical assessment, is it?

431
00:29:32,531 --> 00:29:33,771
Yep.

432
00:29:35,081 --> 00:29:38,700
I don't suppose it's
possible to recover a signal

433
00:29:38,705 --> 00:29:40,936
from a hacked feed either, is it?

434
00:29:40,941 --> 00:29:46,464
Like scratching the paint off
a canvas to reveal the drawing.

435
00:29:47,329 --> 00:29:48,889
What are you talking about?

436
00:29:50,421 --> 00:29:51,821
Nothing.

437
00:30:12,346 --> 00:30:15,740
Ma'am. The suspect's
name was used to rent

438
00:30:15,745 --> 00:30:19,240
a storage unit in Clapham two years ago.
It might be a dead end...

439
00:30:19,245 --> 00:30:20,971
the storage company is
no longer in business,

440
00:30:20,975 --> 00:30:23,455
but do you want me to head
down there and take a look?

441
00:30:24,587 --> 00:30:27,557
- No, you stay here. I'll go.
- Yes, ma'am.

442
00:30:41,747 --> 00:30:43,891
- Hello?
- It's me.

443
00:30:43,896 --> 00:30:46,750
- What phone are you calling from?
- Have you left yet?

444
00:30:46,755 --> 00:30:50,406
Yeah. Just now. I'm right here. Why?

445
00:30:50,411 --> 00:30:52,626
Good. I need you to do something for me.

446
00:30:52,631 --> 00:30:55,351
Look, in the bathroom, there's a laptop.

447
00:31:06,718 --> 00:31:08,078
Hi.

448
00:31:10,552 --> 00:31:12,386
You guarantee they won't print my name?

449
00:31:12,564 --> 00:31:16,630
The clue is in the word anonymous.
Anonymous whistle-blower.

450
00:31:42,094 --> 00:31:44,734
I'm afraid you've caught me on the hoof.

451
00:31:44,739 --> 00:31:46,608
Train was delayed coming
back from my conference,

452
00:31:46,612 --> 00:31:48,812
and now I'm running late
for a dinner engagement.

453
00:31:48,817 --> 00:31:50,856
I always seem to catch you
either coming or going.

454
00:31:50,861 --> 00:31:52,341
Time and tide.

455
00:31:52,346 --> 00:31:55,917
Was that the Home Secretary's
conference? His big announcement?

456
00:31:55,922 --> 00:31:58,544
Er, no. Different one.

457
00:31:59,523 --> 00:32:03,521
They're here, aren't
they? Clear Horizons AI?

458
00:32:04,341 --> 00:32:07,726
- Yes, on the top floor.
- US company, right?

459
00:32:07,731 --> 00:32:09,506
Silicon Valley, of course.

460
00:32:09,864 --> 00:32:13,489
But now they're taking
over the world, so to speak.

461
00:32:14,467 --> 00:32:16,067
You must be delighted.

462
00:32:16,941 --> 00:32:20,421
Your client winning the UK
facial recognition contract.

463
00:32:21,021 --> 00:32:23,219
You mentioned half your
clients were in this building.

464
00:32:23,224 --> 00:32:25,294
I'm assuming that includes them.

465
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,009
We don't get involved with
their commercial operations.

466
00:32:32,851 --> 00:32:35,051
What do you get involved in?

467
00:32:37,536 --> 00:32:39,581
I'm sorry, Detective,
but where's this going?

468
00:32:39,586 --> 00:32:42,130
Surely you can see the problem, Mr Knox.

469
00:32:43,676 --> 00:32:46,703
You belong to an
independent advisory group.

470
00:32:46,708 --> 00:32:50,626
You advised the government against
doing business with a Chinese firm,

471
00:32:51,060 --> 00:32:53,685
whilst in the pocket of their US rivals.

472
00:32:55,177 --> 00:32:57,946
Looks like a conflict
of interests to me.

473
00:32:58,117 --> 00:33:00,637
I assure you, I'm not
in anyone's pocket.

474
00:33:04,188 --> 00:33:07,680
Tell me, what is it
you do here, exactly?

475
00:33:09,243 --> 00:33:14,000
Your website mentions
political consultancy,

476
00:33:14,352 --> 00:33:15,918
data analysis.

477
00:33:16,601 --> 00:33:19,383
Sounds... vague.

478
00:33:19,661 --> 00:33:22,301
I'd be glad to educate you,
Detective, but as I mentioned...

479
00:33:22,306 --> 00:33:25,003
Half the social media
companies on the planet seem

480
00:33:25,008 --> 00:33:28,666
to have an office in this building.
That's a lot of data to analyse.

481
00:33:28,667 --> 00:33:31,146
But as I mentioned, I
don't have all evening.

482
00:33:33,652 --> 00:33:37,847
How did you unmask the suspect
exactly? Nikolai Mirsky?

483
00:33:37,852 --> 00:33:41,042
Well, you supplied the image.
You know which program we used.

484
00:33:41,047 --> 00:33:43,186
Show me the process, the working out.

485
00:33:43,191 --> 00:33:46,891
That involves my technical
team, none of whom are here.

486
00:33:47,141 --> 00:33:48,441
It's after hours.

487
00:33:48,446 --> 00:33:50,946
Did you supply the image to
anyone outside this company?

488
00:33:50,947 --> 00:33:53,055
You were quite clear about that.

489
00:33:53,305 --> 00:33:55,938
See, you haven't actually
answered the question.

490
00:33:56,183 --> 00:33:58,901
Is that something you
teach your politicians?

491
00:33:59,618 --> 00:34:00,887
Am I under suspicion, Detective?

492
00:34:00,891 --> 00:34:02,493
Increasingly.

493
00:34:03,094 --> 00:34:04,493
Well, if you want to arrest me

494
00:34:04,498 --> 00:34:07,418
for a conflict of interest, go ahead.

495
00:34:08,243 --> 00:34:10,083
That won't be the charge.

496
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:23,679
_

497
00:34:23,884 --> 00:34:27,355
Suspect vehicle. Golf, X-ray,
six, six, Alpha, Echo Echo.

498
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,871
Pos ID. Coleman Street,
Echo, Charlie, four.

499
00:34:29,876 --> 00:34:33,082
- Vehicle heading north.
- Bring it up. Let's see it.

500
00:34:33,273 --> 00:34:36,652
Deploy armed units to the vicinity.
Prepare for tactical response.

501
00:34:38,011 --> 00:34:41,011
The murder of Edison Yao and the
attempt on your life were designed

502
00:34:41,016 --> 00:34:43,641
to send Isaac Turner
into police protection,

503
00:34:43,837 --> 00:34:46,761
to keep him out of the public
eye. That's when this began.

504
00:34:46,766 --> 00:34:48,735
- What began?
- The onslaught of

505
00:34:48,743 --> 00:34:51,043
disinformation and lies

506
00:34:51,048 --> 00:34:53,774
that led us to believe we
were under attack from China,

507
00:34:54,141 --> 00:34:58,586
that ended with UK facial
recognition being handed to America.

508
00:34:58,587 --> 00:35:01,470
You have completely lost me.

509
00:35:03,426 --> 00:35:05,106
I don't believe you.

510
00:35:07,384 --> 00:35:10,196
I'm not continuing this
conversation until I have a lawyer.

511
00:35:10,201 --> 00:35:12,824
What is it you don't want me
to see on that laptop, Mr Knox?

512
00:35:13,444 --> 00:35:14,844
What?

513
00:35:14,849 --> 00:35:17,035
You've been glancing at it
like a schoolboy who forgot

514
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,110
- to delete his search history.
- This is ridiculous.

515
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:27,980
I can produce a warrant

516
00:35:27,985 --> 00:35:30,698
to seize every computer in
this building within 20 minutes.

517
00:35:30,703 --> 00:35:31,943
I'm afraid I've kept my dinner

518
00:35:31,948 --> 00:35:33,072
- companions waiting...
- But at this point, failure

519
00:35:33,076 --> 00:35:34,955
- to cooperate will force my hand.
- I employ corporate lawyers,

520
00:35:34,959 --> 00:35:38,884
but not criminal ones, so I'd like
time to arrange representation.

521
00:35:38,889 --> 00:35:42,032
Take one more step, and I will
have no option but to arrest.

522
00:35:42,786 --> 00:35:45,746
Gregory Knox, I am arresting you
for obstructing a police officer

523
00:35:45,751 --> 00:35:48,498
in the execution of their
duty. You do not have to say...

524
00:35:48,503 --> 00:35:49,863
Where the fuck are you going?!

525
00:35:49,868 --> 00:35:52,826
Do not make me add resisting
arrest to the list of charges!

526
00:35:55,372 --> 00:35:56,772
Do not move.

527
00:36:01,419 --> 00:36:04,219
Kilo 3 to all units.
Request urgent backup...

528
00:36:04,224 --> 00:36:06,384
All clear, all clear.

529
00:36:31,552 --> 00:36:34,432
I hope you don't think of me
too unfavourably, Detective.

530
00:36:36,354 --> 00:36:37,994
I'm not a violent person.

531
00:36:38,991 --> 00:36:42,351
I've certainly never laid a
finger on a woman, as they say.

532
00:36:42,356 --> 00:36:44,476
Present company excepted, of course.

533
00:36:45,461 --> 00:36:51,347
Point is, I share the widely
held public-facing belief

534
00:36:51,352 --> 00:36:54,026
that violence towards
women is abhorrent.

535
00:36:54,027 --> 00:36:57,066
I say public-facing because
online it's a different picture.

536
00:36:57,067 --> 00:36:59,238
You poll 100 university students...

537
00:36:59,243 --> 00:37:01,466
"Is violence towards
women ever justified?"

538
00:37:01,471 --> 00:37:03,355
You'll get 100 emphatic noes.

539
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:04,840
But look at their Twitter feeds...

540
00:37:04,845 --> 00:37:07,461
you'll find 10% to 15% have,

541
00:37:07,466 --> 00:37:10,746
at some point or another,
sent death threats to women.

542
00:37:10,751 --> 00:37:13,306
Just one of the countless
incidences of data providing

543
00:37:13,307 --> 00:37:16,546
a clearer look at human
behaviour than humans themselves.

544
00:37:21,389 --> 00:37:22,789
Ugh!

545
00:37:27,746 --> 00:37:31,347
Suspect vehicle, check.
A501, Moorgate, north.

546
00:37:31,352 --> 00:37:35,360
Lima Unit. Two minutes.
A501, City Road, south.

547
00:37:35,836 --> 00:37:38,938
Mike Unit. Two minutes. A5201, east.

548
00:37:38,946 --> 00:37:40,134
Copy that.

549
00:37:43,546 --> 00:37:45,546
Just like old times.

550
00:37:49,301 --> 00:37:53,674
Gregory Knox, I am arresting
you for conspiracy to murder,

551
00:37:53,679 --> 00:37:56,635
perverting the course of
justice, grievous bodily harm,

552
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,429
assaulting a police officer
and resisting arrest.

553
00:38:00,891 --> 00:38:05,611
Suspect vehicle turning west.
Ropemaker Street. Out of range.

554
00:38:05,616 --> 00:38:07,066
Oh, no, stay on him!

555
00:38:07,067 --> 00:38:09,455
Repeat, out of range. Blind spot, 50m.

556
00:38:09,460 --> 00:38:11,346
I want every border
feed where I can see it.

557
00:38:11,347 --> 00:38:14,746
And I want every armed unit in
London deployed to that vicinity.

558
00:38:38,443 --> 00:38:39,803
Agh!

559
00:38:48,532 --> 00:38:50,292
What is this?

560
00:38:54,131 --> 00:38:56,671
If I were you, Detective Carey...

561
00:38:58,984 --> 00:39:00,784
I'd run.

562
00:39:27,515 --> 00:39:29,718
Where's your phone?

563
00:39:30,527 --> 00:39:32,546
Where's your phone? Where is it?!

564
00:40:43,718 --> 00:40:44,991
Ugh!

565
00:40:46,551 --> 00:40:48,944
This terminal is not in service.

566
00:40:53,282 --> 00:40:55,682
Doors opening.

567
00:41:22,026 --> 00:41:24,588
This terminal is not in service.

568
00:41:24,593 --> 00:41:28,429
Proceed to car H, to the left rear.

569
00:41:37,623 --> 00:41:40,077
Doors opening.

570
00:42:49,133 --> 00:42:53,983
Shots fired. Shots fired.
Target down. Target down.

571
00:42:54,911 --> 00:42:57,431
Shots fired. Threat neutralised.

572
00:42:57,436 --> 00:42:59,996
Target down. Repeat. Target down.

573
00:44:37,140 --> 00:44:39,983
"Nothing to see here," says Rowan Gill.

574
00:44:39,988 --> 00:44:43,252
But an anonymous Home
Office whistle-blower claims

575
00:44:43,257 --> 00:44:46,142
Gill had direct involvement
in the interference

576
00:44:46,147 --> 00:44:48,431
of British passport applications,

577
00:44:48,436 --> 00:44:51,066
including that of Victoria Bello's.

578
00:44:51,291 --> 00:44:55,072
So, can he cling on and
endure another scandal?

579
00:44:55,077 --> 00:44:58,400
Or is the Home Secretary
losing his grip?

580
00:44:58,405 --> 00:44:59,826
Thank you.

581
00:45:25,386 --> 00:45:30,478
Rhys, shut up. Shut up. And listen!
Because I won't say this again.

582
00:45:31,721 --> 00:45:34,001
Who are they?

583
00:45:38,306 --> 00:45:39,986
Well,

584
00:45:40,010 --> 00:45:43,392
you know our... consultants.

585
00:45:44,386 --> 00:45:47,965
- Our c...
- What, Gregory's lot? Truro?

586
00:45:47,970 --> 00:45:49,866
I mean, we did consider
several alternatives.

587
00:45:49,867 --> 00:45:52,466
As I recall, you were the one
who made the final decision.

588
00:45:52,467 --> 00:45:54,767
We hired them a year ago.
What's the problem with them?

589
00:45:54,772 --> 00:45:57,132
Not to be pedantic, but we
didn't hire them, did we?

590
00:45:57,964 --> 00:45:59,465
They offered their services for free.

591
00:45:59,470 --> 00:46:01,626
Which, now I think about it,
should've raised some alarm bells.

592
00:46:01,627 --> 00:46:04,466
I thought they just crunched
data and helped us reach voters?

593
00:46:04,912 --> 00:46:06,432
It's more the way they do it.

594
00:46:09,549 --> 00:46:13,051
I mean, it's bloody clever.
They are the dons of data.

595
00:46:13,056 --> 00:46:15,426
You can't blame yourself for
wanting to work with them.

596
00:46:15,427 --> 00:46:17,146
Truro Analytics?

597
00:46:17,147 --> 00:46:20,186
They're the ones who've been
trying to destroy me? All this time?

598
00:46:22,048 --> 00:46:25,208
They, er, haven't been
trying to destroy you, mate.

599
00:46:25,213 --> 00:46:27,361
Well, what the fuck
have they been doing?

600
00:46:28,826 --> 00:46:30,666
You really ought to get dressed.

601
00:46:30,869 --> 00:46:33,502
They, er, want to show you something.

602
00:46:35,101 --> 00:46:37,341
I'm supposed to take you down,

603
00:46:37,346 --> 00:46:39,466
er, stairs. Sorry, that was...

604
00:46:41,906 --> 00:46:44,416
Why? What the fuck's downstairs?

605
00:46:44,978 --> 00:46:47,386
As I understand it,

606
00:46:47,940 --> 00:46:49,860
some sort of conference.

607
00:47:15,266 --> 00:47:18,495
Esteemed friends, honourable colleagues,

608
00:47:18,507 --> 00:47:21,495
it is my privilege to
present to you this morning

609
00:47:21,500 --> 00:47:24,386
the very latest developments
from the digital frontier,

610
00:47:24,651 --> 00:47:27,491
where big data and politics intersect.

611
00:47:28,701 --> 00:47:31,180
Thanks to our clients in social media,

612
00:47:31,563 --> 00:47:35,290
Truro enjoys access to an
unparalleled wealth of data,

613
00:47:35,883 --> 00:47:37,906
allowing us to track the activity

614
00:47:37,907 --> 00:47:39,826
of approximately half

615
00:47:39,831 --> 00:47:43,211
the internet-using
population, worldwide.

616
00:47:43,354 --> 00:47:45,861
The songs they listen
to when they're sad,

617
00:47:45,866 --> 00:47:48,128
the food they order when they're lonely,

618
00:47:48,133 --> 00:47:51,004
triggers that make them happy, angry,

619
00:47:51,009 --> 00:47:53,422
depressed or suicidal.

620
00:47:53,942 --> 00:47:56,542
Billions upon billions of data points,

621
00:47:56,547 --> 00:48:00,378
feeding one extraordinary,
ever-refining algorithm

622
00:48:00,383 --> 00:48:02,026
that is demonstrably

623
00:48:02,354 --> 00:48:06,754
the most successful predictor
of human behaviour to date.

624
00:48:08,866 --> 00:48:10,306
But you know that.

625
00:48:12,786 --> 00:48:15,386
What you may not know is

626
00:48:15,387 --> 00:48:18,546
how Truro's algorithm is at work

627
00:48:18,547 --> 00:48:22,306
on the art of political electioneering.

628
00:48:24,250 --> 00:48:27,586
Meet Alfonsi Guruli.

629
00:48:30,186 --> 00:48:33,868
A political candidate
in need of a campaign.

630
00:48:34,386 --> 00:48:39,019
Last summer, inspired by
a wave of optimism across

631
00:48:39,024 --> 00:48:41,230
Georgia's burgeoning democracy,

632
00:48:41,235 --> 00:48:43,786
Alfonsi decided to run
for Mayor of Tbilisi,

633
00:48:43,787 --> 00:48:45,546
the capital city.

634
00:48:45,980 --> 00:48:49,946
The candidate had no
experience or media training.

635
00:48:51,187 --> 00:48:54,346
Just the kind of challenge
we were looking for.

636
00:48:54,423 --> 00:48:56,506
- What the fuck is this?
- Sh!

637
00:48:56,785 --> 00:49:00,938
So far, Alfonsi had sought to
promote himself as a family man,

638
00:49:00,943 --> 00:49:02,446
a down-to-earth local

639
00:49:02,451 --> 00:49:05,332
who understood the hopes
and dreams of the electorate.

640
00:49:07,808 --> 00:49:10,722
Yet his poll ratings refused to rise.

641
00:49:12,346 --> 00:49:15,586
At Truro, we set our algorithm a goal...

642
00:49:16,444 --> 00:49:19,797
to turn Alfonsi's fortunes around.

643
00:49:22,110 --> 00:49:24,430
_

644
00:49:24,484 --> 00:49:25,936
_

645
00:49:25,987 --> 00:49:26,987
_

646
00:49:27,032 --> 00:49:29,562
_

647
00:49:29,684 --> 00:49:32,000
_

648
00:49:32,941 --> 00:49:36,242
An alternative portrait
of Alfonsi emerged.

649
00:49:37,141 --> 00:49:41,341
Perhaps the squeaky-clean
candidate wasn't clean after all.

650
00:49:41,713 --> 00:49:43,812
His opponents attacked.

651
00:49:44,274 --> 00:49:47,034
Guruli must face the
public and explain himself.

652
00:49:49,359 --> 00:49:52,190
Finally, the mayoral
hopeful had an audience.

653
00:49:52,195 --> 00:49:54,515
A chance to get his message across.

654
00:50:00,094 --> 00:50:02,203
_

655
00:50:02,571 --> 00:50:04,836
_

656
00:50:05,414 --> 00:50:06,758
_

657
00:50:07,435 --> 00:50:09,633
_

658
00:50:09,828 --> 00:50:11,914
_

659
00:50:12,141 --> 00:50:13,656
_

660
00:50:13,930 --> 00:50:15,578
_

661
00:50:16,603 --> 00:50:19,523
Alfonsi's supporters were baffled.

662
00:50:20,359 --> 00:50:23,640
But the algorithm had
seen what they couldn't.

663
00:50:24,679 --> 00:50:28,758
Online, the data revealed
a different Tbilisi.

664
00:50:29,466 --> 00:50:31,746
Here was a city at war

665
00:50:31,747 --> 00:50:34,426
divided over a number of burning issues.

666
00:50:34,427 --> 00:50:36,906
Looking deeper, data revealed

667
00:50:36,907 --> 00:50:40,386
exactly which issues
caused most concern,

668
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:44,586
which news stories literally
kept the locals awake at night.

669
00:50:45,836 --> 00:50:47,719
_

670
00:50:47,782 --> 00:50:49,703
_

671
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:51,922
_

672
00:50:52,211 --> 00:50:53,666
The silent majority

673
00:50:53,667 --> 00:50:55,776
had suddenly been spoken for.

674
00:50:55,781 --> 00:50:59,026
"The real people of
Tbilisi" began to trend,

675
00:50:59,027 --> 00:51:01,675
spawning a movement, a base.

676
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,146
Alfonsi! Alfonsi!

677
00:51:04,151 --> 00:51:08,748
Alfonsi was a rising star
of the populist right.

678
00:51:10,546 --> 00:51:12,466
Or so it seemed.

679
00:51:13,489 --> 00:51:16,039
Alfonsi Guruli.

680
00:51:17,422 --> 00:51:21,898
_

681
00:51:22,907 --> 00:51:25,261
_

682
00:51:29,078 --> 00:51:31,844
_

683
00:51:32,695 --> 00:51:35,140
Scores of people
appeared on social media,

684
00:51:35,145 --> 00:51:36,585
insisting he had always been

685
00:51:36,590 --> 00:51:38,745
a strong advocate of gay rights.

686
00:51:38,750 --> 00:51:41,906
The Alfonsi Guruli
they knew was no bigot.

687
00:51:42,746 --> 00:51:44,866
A new narrative began to take shape.

688
00:51:45,503 --> 00:51:48,268
Alfonsi was a savvy politician,

689
00:51:48,273 --> 00:51:50,466
playing the orthodox right for votes.

690
00:51:50,691 --> 00:51:54,251
And the real real people
of Tbilisi knew that.

691
00:51:55,125 --> 00:51:56,476
_

692
00:51:56,563 --> 00:51:58,265
_

693
00:51:58,376 --> 00:52:00,523
_

694
00:52:02,786 --> 00:52:07,243
Truro's AI had created
a political campaign

695
00:52:07,248 --> 00:52:09,048
for a polarised world...

696
00:52:10,980 --> 00:52:14,261
in which every different
sub-section of the electorate

697
00:52:14,274 --> 00:52:17,434
is sold a version of the
candidate they can vote for.

698
00:52:26,284 --> 00:52:31,178
Today, Alfonsi is Mayor of Tbilisi,

699
00:52:31,183 --> 00:52:34,546
elected with 65% of the vote.

700
00:52:44,226 --> 00:52:46,140
Perhaps next time we meet,

701
00:52:47,111 --> 00:52:48,821
Truro's algorithm

702
00:52:48,826 --> 00:52:51,960
will have decided
the fate of a British MP.

703
00:52:56,069 --> 00:52:58,686
Or even PM.

704
00:53:30,958 --> 00:53:34,198
So, what, that's supposed
to be me? I'm an Alfonso?

705
00:53:34,203 --> 00:53:35,923
Alfonsi. Al...

706
00:53:37,930 --> 00:53:40,410
You made me an advocate
of racial profiling.

707
00:53:40,415 --> 00:53:42,485
Yeah, I'm sorry about
that. It's the algorithm.

708
00:53:43,027 --> 00:53:45,724
Every action suggested by the algorithm

709
00:53:45,729 --> 00:53:48,289
moves you one step closer
to where you want to be.

710
00:53:49,805 --> 00:53:51,765
Where do you want to be, Isaac?

711
00:53:53,687 --> 00:53:56,511
I don't need a program
to figure that one out.

712
00:53:56,516 --> 00:53:59,106
What ambitious politician
doesn't want the top job?

713
00:54:04,010 --> 00:54:07,210
I can only imagine the impact you'll
make when you finally get there.

714
00:54:09,803 --> 00:54:12,123
But, goodness, I'm
getting ahead of myself.

715
00:54:12,128 --> 00:54:15,537
The road to Number 10
is long. Years of work.

716
00:54:15,542 --> 00:54:18,266
We need to be patient.
Do as the algorithm says,

717
00:54:18,267 --> 00:54:20,986
step by step, heart to heart,

718
00:54:20,991 --> 00:54:23,453
- and we'll get there in the end.
- You're mad.

719
00:54:23,620 --> 00:54:25,396
Look at where it's got you already.

720
00:54:25,892 --> 00:54:30,135
A critical stage in your
journey is within your grasp.

721
00:54:30,589 --> 00:54:32,509
Home sec, baby.

722
00:54:33,690 --> 00:54:36,026
You actually... you
actually believe this shit?

723
00:54:36,027 --> 00:54:39,638
You think that data witchcraft can
decide who runs the Home Office?

724
00:54:39,643 --> 00:54:42,432
It can decide who runs the country.

725
00:54:43,288 --> 00:54:47,088
Consider Home Secretary
your gruelling audition.

726
00:54:48,770 --> 00:54:50,010
Fuck this.

727
00:54:51,155 --> 00:54:54,875
After everything you've put
me through. And my family...

728
00:54:56,945 --> 00:54:59,729
I should be ramming your
head through that wall.

729
00:55:00,351 --> 00:55:02,671
And yet you're not.

730
00:55:05,427 --> 00:55:07,787
Your popularity is on the rise, Isaac.

731
00:55:08,276 --> 00:55:10,636
While poor Rowan Gill's...

732
00:55:12,237 --> 00:55:16,379
Well, there's work to be done.
Your trusty spad will fill you in.

733
00:55:17,941 --> 00:55:21,261
Sorry, what, you expect me
to collude in this fuckery?

734
00:55:21,266 --> 00:55:23,346
I-I thought you didn't need me anyway?

735
00:55:23,347 --> 00:55:25,599
- You built your own version of me.
- Who, Digi-Zac?

736
00:55:25,604 --> 00:55:26,866
I've enjoyed working with him,

737
00:55:26,867 --> 00:55:28,706
but I'm thrilled you're
ready to take over.

738
00:55:28,707 --> 00:55:31,272
The hell makes you think
I'm going to do that?

739
00:55:31,277 --> 00:55:33,792
Why, the algorithm, of course.

740
00:55:34,861 --> 00:55:38,541
The algorithm sees the
world in all its complexity.

741
00:55:41,057 --> 00:55:45,349
The algorithm understands you, me,

742
00:55:45,354 --> 00:55:47,431
and every segment of our society

743
00:55:47,436 --> 00:55:49,356
better than we understand ourselves.

744
00:55:51,028 --> 00:55:54,748
And it predicts, Isaac
Turner, that you will comply

745
00:55:54,753 --> 00:55:57,866
with this campaign just as
soon as it brings you success.

746
00:56:01,540 --> 00:56:04,540
For with success comes power.

747
00:56:06,254 --> 00:56:08,014
And with power...

748
00:56:09,603 --> 00:56:12,763
You can do all the good
you've ever dreamt of.

749
00:56:23,702 --> 00:56:25,542
Cars are outside when you're ready.

750
00:56:26,993 --> 00:56:29,495
Catch some shuteye on the way back.

751
00:56:30,066 --> 00:56:32,706
We need you fresh-faced for the press.

752
00:56:34,701 --> 00:56:36,661
I didn't say anything.

753
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,600
What?

754
00:56:40,162 --> 00:56:42,002
I didn't say yes.

755
00:56:44,571 --> 00:56:46,611
You didn't say no.

756
00:57:04,974 --> 00:57:07,374
- Hello?
- What ya watching?

757
00:57:08,522 --> 00:57:10,322
Home Sec looking silly?

758
00:57:12,616 --> 00:57:15,656
All seems to have gone
rather well, don't you think?

759
00:57:20,562 --> 00:57:21,682
So...

760
00:57:23,333 --> 00:57:26,493
What do you say? You in?

761
00:57:33,699 --> 00:57:35,139
Yes.

762
00:57:37,474 --> 00:57:38,914
Wonderful.

763
00:57:40,381 --> 00:57:44,657
I'll be in touch first thing.
Sleep well, Isaac Turner.

764
00:57:45,884 --> 00:57:48,924
It's been a long, discombobulating day.

765
00:57:51,673 --> 00:57:55,113
But everything's falling
perfectly into place.

766
00:57:57,893 --> 00:57:59,773
Every little thing.

767
